ITP: Jayhawks get railroaded by Houston... but it's Cal Baptist time!

WEBVTT
1
00:00:03.359 --> 00:00:08.039
It springs back so many memories, so many of the ELTs,
2
00:00:08.880 --> 00:00:12.919
most of the memories of ounds, preposterous shooting from white folks
3
00:00:13.000 --> 00:00:15.919
that usually would just be shooting guns in the mountains.
4
00:00:18.480 --> 00:00:27.359
But first, but first, oh, hold on, did you watch
5
00:00:27.399 --> 00:00:28.359
the game on Friday night?
6
00:00:28.399 --> 00:00:28.719
Boys?
7
00:00:30.519 --> 00:00:33.200
That was unfortunately? Yes, I knew.
8
00:00:33.240 --> 00:00:36.920
It'll call it, Gene, you bring a February.
9
00:00:36.600 --> 00:00:37.320
Bill for nothing.
10
00:00:40.640 --> 00:00:44.840
I stopped watching. I haven't stopped watching a Kansas basketball
11
00:00:44.880 --> 00:00:47.920
game in a long time. But when when? I don't
12
00:00:47.960 --> 00:00:50.439
remember the exact moment, but there was a set moment
13
00:00:51.119 --> 00:00:53.759
where I said, Okay, that's quite enough of that. It
14
00:00:53.840 --> 00:00:56.119
might have been Emmanuel Sharp's last three when it made
15
00:00:56.119 --> 00:00:58.000
it like fifty four to thirty three or something.
16
00:00:58.039 --> 00:00:59.479
I was like, you know, I still can to eat
17
00:00:59.560 --> 00:00:59.960
something else.
18
00:01:00.880 --> 00:01:03.200
Really you watched, then, cam? Let me ask you this.
19
00:01:03.600 --> 00:01:06.959
Who was Kansas's second leading scorer in that game?
20
00:01:07.319 --> 00:01:09.439
I think it was Cora's Ario, wasn't it.
21
00:01:09.760 --> 00:01:13.040
That's right? Yes, it was. I did Watchee was their
22
00:01:13.159 --> 00:01:16.200
second leading scorer. What would you have predicted the score
23
00:01:16.239 --> 00:01:18.079
to be if you had been told before the game
24
00:01:18.120 --> 00:01:20.480
that colors Ario would be the second leading scorer?
25
00:01:20.879 --> 00:01:21.200
Probably?
26
00:01:21.959 --> 00:01:23.840
Yeah, I was gonna say, probably about the same because
27
00:01:23.879 --> 00:01:26.680
if he's getting a lot of minutes, it's not probably
28
00:01:26.680 --> 00:01:27.239
going well.
29
00:01:28.400 --> 00:01:31.400
No, it didn't source to say that it's not good
30
00:01:31.439 --> 00:01:34.480
news is that's the very first time we've ever witnessed
31
00:01:34.480 --> 00:01:37.319
the game against Houston going poorly for our Jayhawks. Right,
32
00:01:37.640 --> 00:01:40.439
surely they haven't scored in the forties against them more
33
00:01:40.480 --> 00:01:43.120
than once in the last two calendar years. Let's just
34
00:01:43.200 --> 00:01:45.200
type into the basketball reference and.
35
00:01:45.200 --> 00:01:47.480
Oh, it's not more than twice.
36
00:01:49.519 --> 00:01:52.640
He got two forty burgers and an all time double
37
00:01:52.680 --> 00:01:55.200
overtime loss, all in the last two calendar years.
38
00:01:56.799 --> 00:01:58.159
Yeah, it's it's not good right.
39
00:01:59.319 --> 00:02:01.879
Act when my dumb ass said Houston was going to
40
00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:03.799
have a hell of a time adjusting to this Big twelve.
41
00:02:03.840 --> 00:02:06.920
This is Kansas's league, do you hear that, Calvin? This
42
00:02:06.959 --> 00:02:11.280
is our house, Houston.
43
00:02:11.560 --> 00:02:15.680
We've said this before, but Houston truly is just prime
44
00:02:16.039 --> 00:02:19.560
peak of their powers mid twenty Ten's Kansas again.
45
00:02:19.960 --> 00:02:23.039
Yep, yeah, yep, with with a better league around them.
46
00:02:23.199 --> 00:02:24.280
That's that's exactly it.
47
00:02:24.400 --> 00:02:30.800
Yeah, And is Jim Beheim basically the late Jim Behim vehicular?
48
00:02:32.159 --> 00:02:32.680
Yeah, as you.
49
00:02:32.680 --> 00:02:36.759
Say there, I saw aolog fans on Twitter be like
50
00:02:37.199 --> 00:02:40.280
they were like, hey see, Houston only won two Big
51
00:02:40.319 --> 00:02:42.759
twelve titles in a row. Doesn't that make you appreciate
52
00:02:42.800 --> 00:02:45.960
the streak? No, a little different league, guys, a little
53
00:02:45.960 --> 00:02:48.639
different league now. But yes, the streak was impressive. I'm
54
00:02:48.639 --> 00:02:50.479
not gonna I'm not gonna dump on the streak. But
55
00:02:50.719 --> 00:02:53.599
the streak would not have reached fourteen if twenty twenty
56
00:02:53.680 --> 00:02:56.479
six Arizona had been at there at any point in
57
00:02:56.520 --> 00:02:58.879
that league, it would not have reached fourteen. That's okay,
58
00:02:59.039 --> 00:03:00.960
you right it out like we'll write it out. We
59
00:03:01.039 --> 00:03:03.439
got a bracket, we're gonna talk about it here. Let's
60
00:03:03.520 --> 00:03:05.879
let's go ahead and uh and and and we'll do introductions.
61
00:03:05.919 --> 00:03:07.919
Then I'll tell you the plan. This is I T. P. Post.
62
00:03:07.919 --> 00:03:11.960
He's in edition. I'm Ryan Landre, I'm Landen Fields.
63
00:03:12.599 --> 00:03:14.639
I'm Cam Lipple, and I'm sad about the prospect that
64
00:03:14.719 --> 00:03:17.319
land is about to be done after approximately two more games.
65
00:03:18.800 --> 00:03:23.000
Oh two more games, sir, if recent history has anything
66
00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:26.159
to say, will be at most two more games, maybe one.
67
00:03:26.319 --> 00:03:29.439
We begin with the most interest getting news of the show,
68
00:03:29.560 --> 00:03:37.159
which is pick'em Landon again, last place, Cam and I one,
69
00:03:37.439 --> 00:03:39.560
uh one.
70
00:03:39.759 --> 00:03:41.719
It's even funnier that you guys are tied.
71
00:03:42.639 --> 00:03:42.919
Buddy.
72
00:03:45.000 --> 00:03:47.680
Oh yeah, all right, I'm on it. That's very funny. Cam.
73
00:03:47.800 --> 00:03:49.599
You know what, just because you said that, well, we'll
74
00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:50.240
have Landon la.
75
00:03:52.840 --> 00:03:56.439
Hilarity is so great in the later part.
76
00:03:56.719 --> 00:03:58.759
He was awesome in the senior yere one of my
77
00:03:58.800 --> 00:04:01.400
favorite players. Year has not been as good as Landon
78
00:04:01.479 --> 00:04:02.520
Lucas's senior year.
79
00:04:02.560 --> 00:04:06.919
I think college more than that Georgia quarterback that was
80
00:04:07.000 --> 00:04:09.280
like twenty nine in ball by the time he got
81
00:04:09.280 --> 00:04:11.439
out of there. That's how long land It's been in college.
82
00:04:11.439 --> 00:04:14.120
And we still are looking for that one in the.
83
00:04:15.680 --> 00:04:18.319
L and Transfer Portal era. This is my ninth year
84
00:04:18.399 --> 00:04:19.040
as a senior.
85
00:04:19.879 --> 00:04:24.000
It is super senior. Landon has never won pick them.
86
00:04:24.040 --> 00:04:24.920
It's impossible.
87
00:04:25.439 --> 00:04:27.199
Can I give you guys, like a stat to start
88
00:04:27.240 --> 00:04:29.360
off the show that's kind of related to the podcast,
89
00:04:29.360 --> 00:04:32.879
but not really well of course please? Okay, So, so,
90
00:04:32.959 --> 00:04:34.360
if you had to take a guess out of the
91
00:04:34.439 --> 00:04:37.360
three schools that I'm listening here, which which do you
92
00:04:37.360 --> 00:04:40.720
think actually spent the most money in nil We're gonna
93
00:04:40.720 --> 00:04:42.680
go Kansas, Michigan State, and Michigan.
94
00:04:44.519 --> 00:04:46.680
Oh probably Kansas.
95
00:04:47.120 --> 00:04:51.519
Nope, I like the convention would be Michigan, right, Michigan
96
00:04:51.560 --> 00:04:54.279
theory has the most liquid cash. It's Michigan State.
97
00:04:54.800 --> 00:04:58.519
Michigan State. Yep. That was on Twitter today twenty one million.
98
00:04:58.319 --> 00:05:02.240
Dollars and true Land and Fashion finishing last out of
99
00:05:02.240 --> 00:05:05.120
a three and a question with three options. That's exactly how.
100
00:05:05.240 --> 00:05:07.120
You guessed it, just as wrong as I did.
101
00:05:07.759 --> 00:05:12.720
But I guess you're right. He got he was odds
102
00:05:12.360 --> 00:05:17.079
and the odds of losing something that you have a
103
00:05:17.160 --> 00:05:19.879
one in three chance of winning nine times in a
104
00:05:19.959 --> 00:05:23.399
row land and is approximately two point six percent, And.
105
00:05:23.519 --> 00:05:25.519
Well, hey there was one year where it was four
106
00:05:25.560 --> 00:05:27.000
people and I still didn't win.
107
00:05:28.199 --> 00:05:33.319
About that, It's impossible. So I believe last year the
108
00:05:33.319 --> 00:05:35.439
pick punishment was you had to go into the streets
109
00:05:35.439 --> 00:05:38.319
of Chicago and Martin Luther King Junior Boulevard and yell something,
110
00:05:38.360 --> 00:05:39.480
which resulting.
111
00:05:39.319 --> 00:05:41.720
Yeah, I am going to Chicago, no joke in like
112
00:05:41.800 --> 00:05:42.079
a week.
113
00:05:42.199 --> 00:05:47.160
Oh no, I think actually you got to send him
114
00:05:47.199 --> 00:05:50.360
to like Portillo's or whatever the Chicago hot dog spot
115
00:05:50.399 --> 00:05:52.199
is and just do like a man versus fo type
116
00:05:52.279 --> 00:05:55.199
challenge and then live stream, right, and then you have
117
00:05:55.240 --> 00:05:55.920
to take.
118
00:05:57.240 --> 00:06:00.319
Well was it this year? No? Well yeah you would.
119
00:06:00.360 --> 00:06:01.839
You would need to because I believe the pick and
120
00:06:01.920 --> 00:06:04.920
punishment was supposed to be eating thirty five pieces of
121
00:06:04.959 --> 00:06:08.519
pizza from Pizza Street, or are you going the Epstein Files.
122
00:06:08.560 --> 00:06:10.560
I think we had two different potential punishments land and
123
00:06:10.560 --> 00:06:12.240
you can choose which one is worse. It might be
124
00:06:12.279 --> 00:06:14.439
the it might be the Pizza Street pizza. Honestly, those
125
00:06:14.439 --> 00:06:15.000
are a whole.
126
00:06:15.040 --> 00:06:16.680
At this point. I don't think it is Stein Files,
127
00:06:16.680 --> 00:06:19.720
and nothing's gonna happen to me though. So if you're
128
00:06:19.759 --> 00:06:20.879
in the Epstein.
129
00:06:20.439 --> 00:06:23.279
Files, like you might have done something well in life,
130
00:06:23.519 --> 00:06:27.240
maybe not like morally, but like you probably pretty well off.
131
00:06:29.319 --> 00:06:32.360
I'm just saying that last part is undeniably true. If
132
00:06:32.399 --> 00:06:32.879
you are in.
133
00:06:34.439 --> 00:06:39.279
Are well off, it must be March Cam is extra
134
00:06:39.519 --> 00:06:42.279
fired up today. His motivation is so excited, planed to
135
00:06:42.319 --> 00:06:44.680
come back for a tenth season. It's I never said
136
00:06:44.680 --> 00:06:47.079
that like that starts like that.
137
00:06:47.399 --> 00:06:49.720
Can we end his last bit? Can we can we
138
00:06:49.759 --> 00:06:53.199
start his last show with the guitar solo from Freebird?
139
00:06:54.040 --> 00:06:56.360
Oh Man? All of it makes the greatest song of
140
00:06:56.399 --> 00:06:58.680
all time, by the way, the best song if you
141
00:06:58.720 --> 00:07:01.000
ranked every song ever written, and that's one right there
142
00:07:01.000 --> 00:07:01.600
with a bullet.
143
00:07:01.680 --> 00:07:04.199
It's It's fine. It's a good.
144
00:07:04.040 --> 00:07:08.600
Song, phenomenal song, works for everything, best guitar solo ever too,
145
00:07:08.639 --> 00:07:11.160
But you already knew that. So here's what we're doing
146
00:07:11.199 --> 00:07:13.720
on ITP. If you like it TP, this is a
147
00:07:13.759 --> 00:07:16.680
good week for you. You're listening to this show on Tuesday.
148
00:07:16.879 --> 00:07:19.360
This is your normal k recap. We're gonna talk about
149
00:07:19.399 --> 00:07:21.800
Kansas's draw. They have a bracket, we have a bracket.
150
00:07:21.920 --> 00:07:24.959
We're gonna talk about their path. We're gonna recap quickly
151
00:07:25.079 --> 00:07:26.839
the Houston game, which there isn't a whole lot to
152
00:07:26.839 --> 00:07:29.319
take away from, to a real quick run through of
153
00:07:29.439 --> 00:07:31.639
champ week, and then we are going to preview in
154
00:07:31.720 --> 00:07:34.600
depth the California Baptist Kansas game, which will take place
155
00:07:34.680 --> 00:07:36.519
late in the evening on Friday, one of the last
156
00:07:36.519 --> 00:07:38.920
games of the first round. This is your normal it TP.
157
00:07:39.079 --> 00:07:41.879
We're gonna skip ask RCB today because most of the
158
00:07:41.959 --> 00:07:45.040
questions for shows like this normally wind up being about
159
00:07:45.040 --> 00:07:47.720
their path, about their matchups. We're gonna talk about that anyway.
160
00:07:47.959 --> 00:07:50.560
So that's the Tuesday show. Then the next day, what's
161
00:07:50.560 --> 00:07:53.160
that You're listening to ITP on your commute into work
162
00:07:53.160 --> 00:07:55.319
on Tuesday thinking how am I gonna get through my
163
00:07:55.439 --> 00:07:58.560
Wednesday commute without one. Well, I have good news for you.
164
00:07:58.800 --> 00:08:01.160
There'll be a show coming out on Wednesday where we
165
00:08:01.199 --> 00:08:03.920
will break down the brackets. We'll be going through the
166
00:08:03.959 --> 00:08:07.279
regions round by round and giving you guaranteed final four picks.
167
00:08:07.639 --> 00:08:09.920
Last year, I went three for four with the Final
168
00:08:09.920 --> 00:08:11.800
four and the only one I missed was Texas Tech,
169
00:08:11.839 --> 00:08:15.240
who blew a huge lead to Florida. That was not close. Disappointing.
170
00:08:15.279 --> 00:08:17.160
I'll get all four this year. If I get all
171
00:08:17.160 --> 00:08:19.399
four final four teams right this year, Landon has to
172
00:08:19.439 --> 00:08:19.879
come back.
173
00:08:20.680 --> 00:08:21.639
No, that's not gonna happen.
174
00:08:22.079 --> 00:08:25.040
Wow, he's so confident that that will happen. What if
175
00:08:25.120 --> 00:08:28.000
land and paid? Okay, what if we pick a perfect bracket?
176
00:08:28.519 --> 00:08:30.160
I think I think I have one.
177
00:08:31.000 --> 00:08:33.600
If you get a perfect bracket, I'll give you one
178
00:08:33.639 --> 00:08:35.320
hundred dollars and I'll come back.
179
00:08:35.919 --> 00:08:38.080
Oh wow, all right, I'm gonna do some studying. I'm
180
00:08:38.080 --> 00:08:40.600
gonna hit those Ken Palm mods. Cam the Gambler, I'm
181
00:08:40.600 --> 00:08:42.279
gonna need you to tell I'm.
182
00:08:42.120 --> 00:08:46.279
A disgrace to the Fano. Apparently. I found that out
183
00:08:46.320 --> 00:08:48.320
the other day.
184
00:08:48.399 --> 00:08:50.840
I don't think that. I don't think that was directed
185
00:08:50.879 --> 00:08:52.840
at you, Cam. I think it was somebody being a
186
00:08:52.919 --> 00:08:53.480
numb nuts.
187
00:08:53.600 --> 00:08:54.720
No, I was having a great day.
188
00:08:54.799 --> 00:08:57.039
Like the person does not listen to rock chock.
189
00:08:56.919 --> 00:08:59.399
Play, I think they do. I think they do because
190
00:08:59.399 --> 00:09:01.440
I was having a day. It was like Saturday. I
191
00:09:01.519 --> 00:09:03.279
was having a pretty good day, just minding my business
192
00:09:03.320 --> 00:09:06.120
p's and q's and doing my daily due diligence of
193
00:09:06.320 --> 00:09:08.639
you know, just living. And I go and open up
194
00:09:08.639 --> 00:09:11.120
the old rock Chalk blog Twitter, which is always a mistake,
195
00:09:11.200 --> 00:09:16.159
and one of the first commentations is like, you gambling, degenerate, idiot,
196
00:09:16.279 --> 00:09:19.159
mouth breathing moron, your disgrace to the fan base. And
197
00:09:19.200 --> 00:09:23.519
then Ryan of all people goes me, who me, No,
198
00:09:24.200 --> 00:09:26.720
I think you're thinking of at camb Lipoole Golf. I'm like,
199
00:09:26.720 --> 00:09:30.559
all right, that's fantastic. So I have like some dude
200
00:09:30.600 --> 00:09:33.480
that lives in his like grandmother's basement, like ripping me
201
00:09:33.559 --> 00:09:37.080
to shreds on Twitter, probably hasn't seen daylight since seventy four.
202
00:09:38.360 --> 00:09:39.679
Yeah, yeah, that's right.
203
00:09:39.720 --> 00:09:45.639
Well, because sorry, I'm really fired up tonight. That game sucked.
204
00:09:45.679 --> 00:09:49.600
Man, Hey the fire that sucks.
205
00:09:49.960 --> 00:09:51.720
Oh No, I got hilarious.
206
00:09:52.639 --> 00:09:54.279
That's not at all what He's not wrong.
207
00:09:54.440 --> 00:09:55.000
I was.
208
00:09:55.519 --> 00:09:58.000
I was rambling on rock chock blog doing what I
209
00:09:58.039 --> 00:10:00.840
never do, which is say incorrect things. And then the
210
00:10:00.879 --> 00:10:03.879
person's like, you're degenerate gambler. And it was a joke
211
00:10:03.960 --> 00:10:06.919
because that person doesn't listen to itp Cam. That person
212
00:10:06.919 --> 00:10:09.039
doesn't even follow a rock chalk blog. They don't know
213
00:10:09.080 --> 00:10:09.559
it exists.
214
00:10:09.600 --> 00:10:10.960
Yeah, I don't even know what the They had, like
215
00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:12.639
a really weird profile picture.
216
00:10:14.279 --> 00:10:17.279
Well, if if Cam is a degenerate gambler, then he's
217
00:10:17.320 --> 00:10:20.080
gonna help you pick a perfect bracket. But that will
218
00:10:20.080 --> 00:10:21.320
be on the next show. Let's talk about the show.
219
00:10:21.360 --> 00:10:23.240
Let's talk about the draw. Did we say our names?
220
00:10:23.279 --> 00:10:23.759
I don't remember?
221
00:10:23.840 --> 00:10:24.480
Yeah, we did, we did?
222
00:10:24.679 --> 00:10:27.600
We did. Dementia a side effect of the twenty twenty
223
00:10:27.679 --> 00:10:31.960
six Jayhawks. Okay, here we go. Okay, let's talk about
224
00:10:32.039 --> 00:10:35.360
Kansas's draw. So I know you know this by now
225
00:10:35.399 --> 00:10:37.320
because you watch the show or read the Internet. But
226
00:10:37.360 --> 00:10:40.519
the Jayhawks draw that you foreseed and the Washington d
227
00:10:40.679 --> 00:10:44.080
C East Region. Oh, if you've read the internet, I'm
228
00:10:44.080 --> 00:10:47.679
so sorry. So ku the four out East in the tournament.
229
00:10:47.840 --> 00:10:51.080
They match up with thirteen seed California Baptist, who's making
230
00:10:51.120 --> 00:10:54.120
their NCAA debut. There will play the game in San
231
00:10:54.159 --> 00:10:57.240
Diego so unfair home court game. The NCAA screwed him
232
00:10:57.240 --> 00:10:59.960
again for a Friday night tilt. They get Kevin Hard
233
00:11:00.320 --> 00:11:02.519
that's the good news. Should Kansas win, they get the
234
00:11:02.559 --> 00:11:06.440
winner of five seed Saint John's and twelve seed Northern Iowa.
235
00:11:06.720 --> 00:11:12.559
Their one seed is Duke, five seed Saint John's number
236
00:11:12.559 --> 00:11:15.320
ten in the AP polls, Saint John's five seed. What
237
00:11:15.320 --> 00:11:18.279
do we make of this draw? Because I think Twitter
238
00:11:18.759 --> 00:11:23.200
normally a very negative place, this is the most favorable
239
00:11:23.320 --> 00:11:26.000
I've ever seen. The reaction be to KU's draw from
240
00:11:26.000 --> 00:11:27.679
the Rock Chalk Blog Twitter following.
241
00:11:29.200 --> 00:11:31.960
Really, that's pretty fascinating actually, because I think we'll love
242
00:11:32.039 --> 00:11:34.519
pretty brutal. That was my.
243
00:11:34.559 --> 00:11:37.639
First thought, Like everyone on Twitter's like I wanted Duke
244
00:11:37.759 --> 00:11:39.200
is the one and the five? I want it was
245
00:11:39.240 --> 00:11:40.919
Saint John's, Like I kid you not. I saw that
246
00:11:41.000 --> 00:11:42.720
several times before they had the bracket.
247
00:11:42.919 --> 00:11:48.080
Razy. I think col Baptists specifically is is a really
248
00:11:48.519 --> 00:11:52.519
good draw because that team's not very good. But Saint
249
00:11:52.639 --> 00:11:55.720
John's and Duke, that's that's brutally, You're two most likely
250
00:11:55.759 --> 00:11:57.960
matchups there. That's tough.
251
00:11:58.759 --> 00:12:03.360
So fun fat Here's like an advanced stat which cyclone
252
00:12:03.399 --> 00:12:06.240
Larry actually reposted the only way I know this shout
253
00:12:06.279 --> 00:12:07.279
out a cyclone.
254
00:12:08.080 --> 00:12:10.360
Cyclone, lay, what a wonderful account.
255
00:12:10.919 --> 00:12:13.679
But you know who the number ninth ranked team in
256
00:12:13.799 --> 00:12:17.039
the last five games is, per Bartovic. It is Saint
257
00:12:17.120 --> 00:12:23.120
John's in the country, in the country, Yes, in the country.
258
00:12:23.159 --> 00:12:26.759
But yeah, they've lost like one time in twenty twenty six.
259
00:12:27.159 --> 00:12:29.759
And they absolutely depanted Yukon.
260
00:12:30.440 --> 00:12:33.440
Yes, and their best player has revenge on his mind.
261
00:12:33.960 --> 00:12:34.200
Yeah.
262
00:12:34.519 --> 00:12:37.320
Like the draw itself, Like, if you really think about it,
263
00:12:37.679 --> 00:12:40.399
Duke isn't healthy. They're still better than Kansas without you know,
264
00:12:40.559 --> 00:12:44.360
full strength. But like if hypothetically, if you get past
265
00:12:44.399 --> 00:12:46.320
Saint John's in the round of thirty two, like you
266
00:12:46.360 --> 00:12:49.600
get a week to prepare, that's maybe best case scenario
267
00:12:49.679 --> 00:12:52.639
for a Sweet sixteen game. If you're playing a one seed. However,
268
00:12:53.399 --> 00:12:56.440
you have Saint John's and Rick Patino and ZUBI Edge
269
00:12:56.440 --> 00:12:58.600
four and number nine team in the country in the
270
00:12:58.679 --> 00:13:00.360
last five games for your second game.
271
00:13:01.720 --> 00:13:06.039
So the East, the East bracket is loaded with great coaches. Right,
272
00:13:06.080 --> 00:13:08.720
you got Shire, you got Izzo, you got Self, you
273
00:13:08.799 --> 00:13:13.000
have u. Who else is in here? Uh? But and Hurley,
274
00:13:13.159 --> 00:13:16.440
Hurley's the two seed in here, Like everybody. It's it's
275
00:13:16.480 --> 00:13:22.159
a loaded region. Yeah, who to the seventh best coach? Yeah, well, yeah,
276
00:13:22.200 --> 00:13:24.759
I get it. But like UCLA being a seventh seed,
277
00:13:25.440 --> 00:13:27.600
I mean, I think they're the strongest of the sevens.
278
00:13:27.759 --> 00:13:30.240
I think Yukon is the strongest. Now, Houston's strongest of
279
00:13:30.279 --> 00:13:32.279
the twos. Yukon's probably the second strongest of the twos.
280
00:13:32.360 --> 00:13:34.600
Duke's the best one. That's the one that I can't
281
00:13:34.600 --> 00:13:37.399
figure out. I understand people who have a mixed reaction
282
00:13:37.480 --> 00:13:40.799
to Saint John's. Saint John's ranked seventeen on ken Palm.
283
00:13:40.840 --> 00:13:42.679
They've been one of the hottest teams in the country.
284
00:13:42.879 --> 00:13:45.120
Ken Pom views them as one of the luckiest teams
285
00:13:45.120 --> 00:13:48.039
in college basketball this year, which I found interesting. And
286
00:13:48.080 --> 00:13:50.600
they really don't have a ton of quality wins. We
287
00:13:50.639 --> 00:13:53.600
saw them beat Yukon, and they trounced Yukon and they
288
00:13:53.679 --> 00:13:55.559
I guess they got them at home too earlier in
289
00:13:55.600 --> 00:13:58.840
the conference play, but they they they're not as battle
290
00:13:58.919 --> 00:14:01.320
tested as some of the other teams in that four
291
00:14:01.399 --> 00:14:04.840
or five line. Still, this is a great defensive team
292
00:14:05.240 --> 00:14:08.159
forty fifth on offense, They're a lot like Kansas according
293
00:14:08.200 --> 00:14:10.679
to the metrics. They just play more through their bigs.
294
00:14:10.720 --> 00:14:14.360
In Kansas plays more with their wings. But the thing
295
00:14:14.440 --> 00:14:17.159
that fascinates me, I'll hear you out on Saint John's.
296
00:14:17.240 --> 00:14:20.759
You're not super impressed with Saint John's. Okay, I'll listen. Oh,
297
00:14:20.879 --> 00:14:22.559
I don't get on all as the people saying Duke's
298
00:14:22.559 --> 00:14:25.480
the weakest one seed, Like, I don't understand that at all.
299
00:14:25.840 --> 00:14:27.879
I know they've had a couple of injuries, but like
300
00:14:28.320 --> 00:14:32.440
they handle Andrews down the stretch, and I know Peterson
301
00:14:32.480 --> 00:14:34.480
didn't play it right cam it is just the injuries,
302
00:14:34.480 --> 00:14:37.799
but like they have the best scorer in college basketball
303
00:14:38.159 --> 00:14:40.799
and a lot of talent around him. I can't figure
304
00:14:40.799 --> 00:14:43.480
out how they're the weakest one seed at all.
305
00:14:43.600 --> 00:14:47.000
Also, you know who's sixteen and seventeen in the net
306
00:14:47.080 --> 00:14:52.399
ranking five seeds Saint John's and six seed Louisville.
307
00:14:53.159 --> 00:14:58.080
Yeah, yeah, who are who are basically back to back
308
00:14:58.480 --> 00:15:02.200
in ken palm. Saint John's, Louisville, and Kansas are all
309
00:15:02.240 --> 00:15:04.320
in the seventeen to twenty range of ken palm. If
310
00:15:04.320 --> 00:15:06.759
you want to know, like how close all those teams are.
311
00:15:07.600 --> 00:15:12.120
And I know obviously like Louisville acc outside the top
312
00:15:12.120 --> 00:15:14.919
couple teams the ANCC that's not a great league. Same
313
00:15:14.960 --> 00:15:17.039
with the Big East. Big East was bad even by
314
00:15:17.039 --> 00:15:20.200
Big East standards this year outside of Saint John's and Yukon,
315
00:15:20.320 --> 00:15:23.279
and in Villanova was backed at least being respectable this year.
316
00:15:23.600 --> 00:15:25.519
So the Big Twelve is obviously a much much better
317
00:15:25.600 --> 00:15:28.519
league than that. But the fact that you have teams
318
00:15:28.519 --> 00:15:33.960
that are pretty much like across most metrics, you're talking
319
00:15:34.000 --> 00:15:37.399
about Saint John's and Louisville's like top twenty teams. And
320
00:15:37.480 --> 00:15:40.559
I obviously know as far as Kansas specifically, the odds
321
00:15:40.600 --> 00:15:43.240
that they play Louisville are next to zero. But like
322
00:15:43.519 --> 00:15:46.320
the fact that you have those two teams as the
323
00:15:46.440 --> 00:15:50.600
five and six seed in this region alone, despite basically
324
00:15:50.639 --> 00:15:52.480
everyone looking at those teams and saying, yeah, that's a
325
00:15:52.519 --> 00:15:54.360
top at least a top twenty five team, if not
326
00:15:54.399 --> 00:15:57.320
a top twenty team, if not even a little higher,
327
00:15:57.360 --> 00:15:59.840
I think that is pretty bananas.
328
00:16:00.679 --> 00:16:04.159
This is the only quadrant of the bracket that has
329
00:16:04.279 --> 00:16:07.519
each of the top six seeds in the top twenty
330
00:16:07.600 --> 00:16:11.600
one of ken Pom, so it's a loaded bracket. I'm
331
00:16:11.600 --> 00:16:14.320
not gonna touch on Duke yet and complain about that
332
00:16:14.360 --> 00:16:17.519
with their draw though, because time after time after time
333
00:16:17.559 --> 00:16:19.960
we've seen Kansas be a three or four, and we've
334
00:16:20.000 --> 00:16:22.440
bitched about the one or the two and talked about
335
00:16:22.480 --> 00:16:24.480
how that's a crappy matchup or how it's a great
336
00:16:24.519 --> 00:16:27.120
matchup and they don't wind up making it there. I'm
337
00:16:27.159 --> 00:16:30.759
focused on that first little pod with Saint John's, Northern
338
00:16:30.799 --> 00:16:33.679
Iowa and cal Baptist. If they get to the second weekend,
339
00:16:33.679 --> 00:16:36.720
I'll reassess the draw. Let me ask you this, would
340
00:16:36.759 --> 00:16:38.960
you trade Saint John's as their five for any of
341
00:16:38.960 --> 00:16:41.879
the other fives? Would you rather be Saint John's or Vanderbilt?
342
00:16:42.799 --> 00:16:44.519
Would definitely rather see Vandy.
343
00:16:45.080 --> 00:16:45.840
I think so too.
344
00:16:46.120 --> 00:16:50.000
I did no. I think Vanderbilt a top is good. Wrong.
345
00:16:51.120 --> 00:16:52.919
It's a matter of would you rather play play a
346
00:16:52.960 --> 00:16:55.200
really good offensive team or a really good defensive one.
347
00:16:56.639 --> 00:17:01.039
Well, Kansas can't really score, so as we're talking about.
348
00:17:01.320 --> 00:17:03.519
Kansas against a really good defensive team, it might not
349
00:17:03.559 --> 00:17:04.000
go well.
350
00:17:04.359 --> 00:17:06.400
It's gonna get like they're not gonna get out of
351
00:17:06.400 --> 00:17:06.960
the forties.
352
00:17:08.279 --> 00:17:11.240
So interestingly, on the metric sites, Vanderbilt is the highest
353
00:17:11.319 --> 00:17:14.640
ranked five seed by a few spots Saint John's second
354
00:17:14.880 --> 00:17:17.599
Texas Tech. I think we all would rather, We would
355
00:17:17.640 --> 00:17:20.160
all rather see Kansas have Texas Tech as they're five,
356
00:17:20.240 --> 00:17:22.559
but they that was never gonna happen because of their rivals.
357
00:17:22.680 --> 00:17:25.240
And then Wisconsin. I don't want Wisconsin either. I think
358
00:17:25.279 --> 00:17:28.440
Saint John's would be my as wild as that sounds,
359
00:17:28.640 --> 00:17:31.119
I think they would be my first choice of the
360
00:17:31.200 --> 00:17:34.359
three five seeds that they were realistically gonna get. I'd
361
00:17:34.400 --> 00:17:37.480
rather have Saint John's than either Vanderbilt or Wisconsin.
362
00:17:39.920 --> 00:17:42.079
I won't spoil my I won't spoil my pick here,
363
00:17:42.160 --> 00:17:46.480
so I won't offer too much more analysis other than
364
00:17:46.480 --> 00:17:48.759
to say, I'm not sure how much it would actually matter.
365
00:17:49.880 --> 00:17:53.680
Okay, well that's but as far as the col Baptis one,
366
00:17:53.960 --> 00:17:59.000
we all are in agreement. And this will look hilarious game. Yeah, yeah,
367
00:17:59.039 --> 00:18:01.839
it's that's the best win that game. Cal They have
368
00:18:01.920 --> 00:18:04.640
a great defense, but they shoot some of the They
369
00:18:04.640 --> 00:18:07.200
have one of the lowest three point marks in the country.
370
00:18:07.640 --> 00:18:12.119
That's what you look to avoid, those thirteen and undersea. Yes,
371
00:18:12.359 --> 00:18:14.839
and they got very fortunate to make it over a
372
00:18:14.960 --> 00:18:17.920
Utah Ballet team that was the heavy favorite in that league.
373
00:18:18.240 --> 00:18:20.680
Like you want to avoid the teams that shoot them.
374
00:18:20.880 --> 00:18:23.839
We didn't like Samford because that team could shoot threes
375
00:18:23.880 --> 00:18:26.759
and they took Kansas to the brink. Cal State Baptist
376
00:18:27.200 --> 00:18:28.119
is the opposite.
377
00:18:30.000 --> 00:18:31.400
I think it says a lot about the state of
378
00:18:31.440 --> 00:18:33.640
the program where there are some fans that are actually
379
00:18:33.799 --> 00:18:39.599
questioning whether Kansas will beat California State Baptist University.
380
00:18:39.640 --> 00:18:44.039
In their in their first NCAA tournament game. If I
381
00:18:44.039 --> 00:18:46.440
had to give it a letter grade, I would say
382
00:18:46.480 --> 00:18:49.960
that Kansas got a B for the draw, like I
383
00:18:50.079 --> 00:18:53.640
mainly because I like their first matchup and Saint John's
384
00:18:53.640 --> 00:18:55.960
while they're better than a five seeds. By the way,
385
00:18:56.000 --> 00:18:58.720
you want to talk about the recent draws that Kansas
386
00:18:58.720 --> 00:19:01.599
has gotten when they are in at three four five range,
387
00:19:01.880 --> 00:19:04.079
So I mean, just just I put it out on Twitter,
388
00:19:04.319 --> 00:19:06.920
Saint John's is a Let me get that tweet because
389
00:19:06.920 --> 00:19:09.799
I think that was really interesting. The last handful of
390
00:19:09.799 --> 00:19:13.400
times that Kansas has drawn a four to five kind
391
00:19:13.440 --> 00:19:15.680
of thing, who they're going to play in the second round,
392
00:19:15.839 --> 00:19:18.519
it has been unbelievable if you believe in Ken Palm,
393
00:19:18.559 --> 00:19:20.880
how bad their draw has been. So this year they
394
00:19:20.880 --> 00:19:22.880
got five seed Saint John's who's ranked it is ken
395
00:19:22.920 --> 00:19:26.319
Palm seventeen. In twenty twenty four, they got Gonzaga as
396
00:19:26.319 --> 00:19:28.279
their five seed when that was the twelfth team on
397
00:19:28.400 --> 00:19:31.200
Ken Palm. In twenty twenty one, they got the six
398
00:19:31.279 --> 00:19:35.920
seed usc that was the number sixth team in Ken Palm.
399
00:19:36.359 --> 00:19:39.240
And in twenty nineteen they drew five seed Auburn, who
400
00:19:39.279 --> 00:19:41.559
was number eleven on Ken Palm. So they've gotten some
401
00:19:41.799 --> 00:19:44.200
by the way, they lost each of those first three games.
402
00:19:44.839 --> 00:19:47.400
This is not a joke. I played in the California
403
00:19:47.480 --> 00:19:51.720
Baptist Invitational in California in twenty twenty one for Oakland.
404
00:19:51.759 --> 00:19:53.799
Were they good? Were they got?
405
00:19:54.359 --> 00:19:57.880
No, They're horrible. I played like Donkey Dick, but you
406
00:19:57.960 --> 00:20:01.960
might say, sorry, just just I got my teeth kicked in.
407
00:20:02.039 --> 00:20:05.920
So hopefully it was better for Kansas.
408
00:20:06.240 --> 00:20:09.440
They're gonna be playing in San Diego, which is like
409
00:20:09.480 --> 00:20:11.200
one of the best cities in the United States too.
410
00:20:11.359 --> 00:20:12.880
I mean, if I were in San Diego, I don't
411
00:20:12.880 --> 00:20:15.119
know how focused i'd be on basketball. I'd probably want
412
00:20:15.119 --> 00:20:17.400
to do San Diego stuff. It's fun city.
413
00:20:20.000 --> 00:20:21.680
I'd go on a five day vendor and die in
414
00:20:21.720 --> 00:20:22.200
the ocean.
415
00:20:26.400 --> 00:20:28.480
I think I would give can I think I would
416
00:20:28.480 --> 00:20:35.079
give the draw a C plus, Like let's go.
417
00:20:35.799 --> 00:20:38.519
Then, what do you grade their grade? Their thirteen seed?
418
00:20:38.519 --> 00:20:40.440
We think they got an A as far as thirteen.
419
00:20:40.160 --> 00:20:43.000
Seeds, Yeah, I would say in a maybe even an
420
00:20:43.039 --> 00:20:44.640
A plus, just based on that you're gonna be a
421
00:20:44.640 --> 00:20:47.480
four seed if you're if you're waiting it, I'd say
422
00:20:47.480 --> 00:20:51.680
that's probably the best possible outcome for thirteen seed. I
423
00:20:51.720 --> 00:20:54.519
think it's like, uh, I I would go so maybe
424
00:20:54.759 --> 00:20:57.400
maybe I'm truly overrating Saint John's and just seeing them
425
00:20:57.440 --> 00:21:00.119
destroy Yukon and win the Big East Tournament. But I
426
00:21:00.160 --> 00:21:04.200
would go so far it was true, it's totally fair.
427
00:21:04.920 --> 00:21:06.200
I would go so far to say this is like
428
00:21:06.200 --> 00:21:11.680
a C minus D plus situation for the five, although
429
00:21:11.720 --> 00:21:15.160
again there is like a five seed is like still
430
00:21:15.160 --> 00:21:16.960
the twentieth best team in the country, so there isn't
431
00:21:17.000 --> 00:21:20.000
really like obviously a super favorable one. I think this
432
00:21:20.079 --> 00:21:23.839
one is not good if you go to the one. Yeah,
433
00:21:23.880 --> 00:21:26.640
I mean same like again, it's a one seed, but
434
00:21:26.680 --> 00:21:31.519
I think, uh, who would you Arizona, Michigan, any of
435
00:21:31.519 --> 00:21:31.920
those three?
436
00:21:31.920 --> 00:21:32.880
It was bad?
437
00:21:33.200 --> 00:21:34.960
Who would you trade if you could switch a duke
438
00:21:35.039 --> 00:21:37.319
for somebody? I ain't doing it for Arizona. I don't
439
00:21:37.400 --> 00:21:38.480
think I'm doing it for Michigan.
440
00:21:38.519 --> 00:21:39.920
I mean it's Florida.
441
00:21:40.200 --> 00:21:41.400
You're getting a really good team.
442
00:21:41.400 --> 00:21:43.359
To me, it's Florida. I think Florida's a.
443
00:21:43.400 --> 00:21:49.880
Terrible though, the defending national champions, right, yeah, yeah.
444
00:21:49.720 --> 00:21:52.039
But it was like a mostly different team.
445
00:21:52.960 --> 00:21:55.839
I think that Saint John's. My initial reaction when I
446
00:21:55.880 --> 00:21:58.079
saw Saint John's was crap, and then I saw the
447
00:21:58.119 --> 00:22:00.400
rest of the five seeds. I'm like, okay, they had
448
00:22:00.400 --> 00:22:02.559
to get one of those. I didn't want Wisconsin, I
449
00:22:02.599 --> 00:22:05.319
didn't want Vanderbilt. Didn't know if Alabama be a five, Like,
450
00:22:05.359 --> 00:22:07.359
I don't know, would you trade Saint John's for Alabama
451
00:22:07.400 --> 00:22:08.319
because I would not.
452
00:22:11.079 --> 00:22:13.480
Actually, honestly, maybe I think Alabama's.
453
00:22:14.799 --> 00:22:15.880
I'm kind of with you.
454
00:22:16.720 --> 00:22:18.920
They are the highest scoring team in college basketball. So
455
00:22:19.000 --> 00:22:21.359
if you don't think Kansas.
456
00:22:21.799 --> 00:22:24.440
Kansas's defense is not bad, though it's not the defense.
457
00:22:24.920 --> 00:22:28.279
To defense Alabama though Alabama can't defend anybody.
458
00:22:29.160 --> 00:22:32.119
Yeah. Yeah, it's interesting. It is a is an interesting
459
00:22:32.160 --> 00:22:34.839
situation that we'll touch more on in our bracket show.
460
00:22:34.960 --> 00:22:37.440
I would I would really like to see that Nebraska
461
00:22:37.480 --> 00:22:39.240
as a five seed in one of the fives. As
462
00:22:39.279 --> 00:22:44.400
a four. I think that's the real answer, because Nebraska's
463
00:22:44.400 --> 00:22:45.440
been fading for a while.
464
00:22:47.920 --> 00:22:51.119
Yes, Nebraska would be my first choice. But they are
465
00:22:51.160 --> 00:22:53.480
somebody else's four seed, and they will get. Not to
466
00:22:53.519 --> 00:22:56.279
spoil a pick on pick they will get. They will
467
00:22:56.319 --> 00:22:58.920
get Troy here in about four days. We'll talk about that,
468
00:22:58.960 --> 00:23:01.279
all right. Now, let's do a let's do a pretty
469
00:23:01.319 --> 00:23:03.759
quick recap of Houston, because there's no reason to talk
470
00:23:03.839 --> 00:23:05.920
much about that, but let's do it because that's what
471
00:23:05.960 --> 00:23:11.319
they passed the big bucks for. Oh boy, this scores
472
00:23:11.319 --> 00:23:15.319
even uglier on the reread. Number two Houston sixty nine,
473
00:23:16.839 --> 00:23:23.880
number three Kansas forty seven, forty seven. That's a good
474
00:23:23.920 --> 00:23:25.960
amount of points to score in a football game, not
475
00:23:26.079 --> 00:23:28.119
so good in the basketball game. That is a twenty
476
00:23:28.240 --> 00:23:31.920
two point l against the team that Ryan and Cam
477
00:23:32.119 --> 00:23:34.200
here we are, but the clown nose and the wig
478
00:23:34.240 --> 00:23:39.319
on get it all nice, we said, Man, Kansas plus
479
00:23:39.359 --> 00:23:41.519
two and a half, four and a half, We're like,
480
00:23:41.599 --> 00:23:42.359
what a budding.
481
00:23:42.480 --> 00:23:43.240
I didn't touch that.
482
00:23:43.359 --> 00:23:47.400
Dummies, Those dummies made them a five point home dog
483
00:23:47.480 --> 00:23:51.240
at the Sprint Center. Get out of here. There we
484
00:23:51.319 --> 00:23:56.279
go hammering it. Nope, thumb down. It was bad, very bad.
485
00:23:56.359 --> 00:23:56.559
It was.
486
00:23:58.519 --> 00:24:00.400
For the fourth time in the last five games to
487
00:24:00.480 --> 00:24:03.440
Jayhawks failed to shoot forty percent from the floor.
488
00:24:03.480 --> 00:24:05.079
That is an abominable number.
489
00:24:05.799 --> 00:24:08.400
Houston led twenty nine to twenty five with a minute
490
00:24:08.440 --> 00:24:13.480
left in the first half before Almarco Jackson laughing really
491
00:24:13.640 --> 00:24:16.759
the name because he's been rough was called for foul
492
00:24:17.559 --> 00:24:20.720
founding a three point shooter, which started a twenty two
493
00:24:20.759 --> 00:24:22.960
to two run that all but end of the night.
494
00:24:23.279 --> 00:24:27.599
It took Kansas nine minutes, nine minutes to make a
495
00:24:27.799 --> 00:24:30.880
shot in the second half. I believe that was of sixteen.
496
00:24:31.720 --> 00:24:32.759
Was it over seventeen?
497
00:24:33.559 --> 00:24:33.799
Yeah?
498
00:24:33.799 --> 00:24:35.880
I think it might have got to eighteen. Actually it
499
00:24:35.960 --> 00:24:36.960
was a lot.
500
00:24:37.240 --> 00:24:39.160
It was either way too many.
501
00:24:39.920 --> 00:24:40.039
Uh.
502
00:24:41.200 --> 00:24:44.480
They finished with forty seven, the fewest they've scored in
503
00:24:44.480 --> 00:24:49.200
a game in two years when they played drum Marll Houston.
504
00:24:50.680 --> 00:24:53.759
And that game really walk On was that game where
505
00:24:53.799 --> 00:24:55.920
the walk On was doing like between the legs step
506
00:24:55.960 --> 00:24:58.960
back threes as Hunter Dickinson left hurt right before the tournament.
507
00:24:58.960 --> 00:25:01.839
I think that was that night, truly, one of the
508
00:25:01.839 --> 00:25:04.920
worst OMEN games of all time was that one. This
509
00:25:04.960 --> 00:25:05.559
one's bad though.
510
00:25:06.599 --> 00:25:10.759
That was the final nick itp regular season recap episode,
511
00:25:10.880 --> 00:25:14.160
and then they cooked up this for a land in
512
00:25:14.200 --> 00:25:17.880
your final Big twelve tournament recap cam can't wait to see.
513
00:25:17.920 --> 00:25:20.720
Whenever you decide you want to quit itp Kansas loose
514
00:25:20.759 --> 00:25:23.359
to Houston by a thousand points in the National Championship game.
515
00:25:25.240 --> 00:25:28.519
I don't think. Yeah, I don't know. My hopes for
516
00:25:28.599 --> 00:25:30.759
Kansas making a national title game are not super high
517
00:25:30.799 --> 00:25:32.119
at the minute, anytime soon.
518
00:25:33.640 --> 00:25:35.960
This is the second worst shooting performance in the Bill
519
00:25:36.000 --> 00:25:38.200
Self era. You go add up every game that they've
520
00:25:38.200 --> 00:25:40.319
played under this coach in twenty three years, you only
521
00:25:40.319 --> 00:25:41.799
get one of them that's worse than this, and that
522
00:25:41.960 --> 00:25:44.799
was the twenty fourteen Kentucky game. Here's what those numbers
523
00:25:44.799 --> 00:25:47.599
look like. Twenty five percent from the floor. They actually
524
00:25:47.640 --> 00:25:50.200
shot better from three than they did from two because
525
00:25:50.200 --> 00:25:54.160
inside the arc they were an ungodly inside that arc,
526
00:25:55.039 --> 00:26:00.640
Kansas players wearing Jayhawk blue jerseys lofted shots thirty four
527
00:26:00.680 --> 00:26:03.920
times seven count them, seven of them winning the basket,
528
00:26:04.119 --> 00:26:07.440
and one of those seven on floories dunk almost brimmed
529
00:26:07.440 --> 00:26:10.279
all the way out. It was almost six. That's twenty
530
00:26:10.279 --> 00:26:12.000
one percent, by the way, for those of you keeping
531
00:26:12.119 --> 00:26:15.799
track at home, seven for thirty four for twenty or
532
00:26:17.000 --> 00:26:18.160
twenty one percent.
533
00:26:21.880 --> 00:26:25.319
Yeah, which is this is why there's not a lot
534
00:26:25.359 --> 00:26:27.400
to analyze in this game. Because, as we'll get into
535
00:26:27.880 --> 00:26:30.319
with the shooting numbers here into the second This was
536
00:26:30.359 --> 00:26:32.559
really just a case of Kansas the lid was on
537
00:26:32.599 --> 00:26:35.480
the basket. They could not get anything to drop. I'm
538
00:26:35.519 --> 00:26:37.599
not sure how. I don't really think that has a
539
00:26:37.720 --> 00:26:40.279
terrible amount of bearing on anything going forward, although they
540
00:26:40.279 --> 00:26:43.440
have been pretty consistently cold in this stretch, which is bad.
541
00:26:44.200 --> 00:26:46.240
So I don't really know what to make of it.
542
00:26:46.279 --> 00:26:48.880
But yeah, there's not a lot to actually like dissect
543
00:26:49.359 --> 00:26:52.960
from this game other than Houston good, Kansas mid, and
544
00:26:53.079 --> 00:26:55.200
Kansas ice cold in the second half.
545
00:26:56.519 --> 00:26:59.640
Yeah, cam about the stats. Let's talk about the stats.
546
00:26:59.680 --> 00:27:02.240
You want to know what an ITP crash course looks like.
547
00:27:02.359 --> 00:27:05.720
Here's an entire games worth of stats in one blurb.
548
00:27:07.359 --> 00:27:11.200
All right, here we go. Melvin Council had statistically one
549
00:27:11.240 --> 00:27:14.960
of the worst shooting performances of any Jayhawk in the
550
00:27:15.000 --> 00:27:17.920
self era. He was one for fourteen from the floor.
551
00:27:18.400 --> 00:27:20.680
Trey White was two for eight, Bryson Tiller was one
552
00:27:20.720 --> 00:27:25.000
for five, Darren Peterson the prodigal Son, he was three
553
00:27:25.039 --> 00:27:27.759
for eleven, and then Flory was one for four. The
554
00:27:27.839 --> 00:27:30.400
k starting five went eight for forty two from the floor.
555
00:27:30.400 --> 00:27:31.720
That is nineteen percent.
556
00:27:32.480 --> 00:27:35.240
Oh my god, that's.
557
00:27:36.839 --> 00:27:41.920
Mean I like that's yeah. I sarcastically tweeted this out
558
00:27:41.960 --> 00:27:43.599
the other day, but I was just like, you know,
559
00:27:43.680 --> 00:27:45.880
you look at like ken palm ratings, which don't always
560
00:27:45.880 --> 00:27:48.000
tell everything, but like the last few years are in
561
00:27:48.039 --> 00:27:50.160
the fifties for like offense, and it's almost like not
562
00:27:50.200 --> 00:27:53.279
getting tons of shooters or just recruiting guys that can
563
00:27:53.319 --> 00:27:55.640
only shoot the basketball, do nothing else, and right on
564
00:27:55.640 --> 00:27:58.240
the bench when you have no bench, doesn't doesn't typically
565
00:27:58.279 --> 00:27:59.519
correlate to a lot of scoring.
566
00:28:00.599 --> 00:28:01.440
Oh yeah, Yeah.
567
00:28:01.480 --> 00:28:05.440
We were talking over the weekend about how Kansas had
568
00:28:05.680 --> 00:28:08.160
three straight years where they were top ten in the
569
00:28:08.200 --> 00:28:12.240
country in three point rate sixteen, seventeen and eighteen eighteen
570
00:28:12.359 --> 00:28:14.599
was probably the best of those shooting teams. They had
571
00:28:14.640 --> 00:28:18.599
the most volume, seventeen was the best statistically, three great years,
572
00:28:18.599 --> 00:28:20.559
and we were all like, Okay, Bill's figuring it out.
573
00:28:20.559 --> 00:28:23.920
He's moving into the twenty first century of college basketball. Wherever.
574
00:28:24.000 --> 00:28:27.440
Since then, they've had one good three point shooting team,
575
00:28:27.440 --> 00:28:31.359
which was their national championship team, one above average one
576
00:28:31.400 --> 00:28:35.160
which was actually the twenty twenty four team, which everyone
577
00:28:35.200 --> 00:28:37.799
remembers couldn't shoot. That team had?
578
00:28:38.640 --> 00:28:39.240
What that was?
579
00:28:39.279 --> 00:28:42.400
Why was that team solid? Like? What in the route
580
00:28:42.519 --> 00:28:47.279
was going on. Yeah, that was the Furfey and Kevin McCuller.
581
00:28:47.119 --> 00:28:49.599
And probably quite a bit of that.
582
00:28:49.680 --> 00:28:53.039
Actually mccullor was a lot better than next year, though
583
00:28:53.359 --> 00:28:56.480
he wasn't nearly as good that team. No, no, no, okay, sorry,
584
00:28:56.559 --> 00:28:58.799
I'm mixing it up. I'm mixing it up. That was
585
00:28:58.839 --> 00:29:02.920
the worst. The twenty twenty five team was the uh
586
00:29:03.440 --> 00:29:05.759
was the second best one. That was the one that
587
00:29:05.920 --> 00:29:09.279
had McCuller, who had, in his limited amount of time,
588
00:29:09.319 --> 00:29:12.200
being a much better shooter. David kuoit Zeke Mayo was
589
00:29:12.240 --> 00:29:14.359
the reason. That's the answer right there, because you had
590
00:29:14.400 --> 00:29:16.799
a guy that shot you know what, like like two
591
00:29:16.920 --> 00:29:19.039
hundred threes and made forty two percent of them. The
592
00:29:19.119 --> 00:29:22.000
twenty twenty four team was the worst three point shooting
593
00:29:22.039 --> 00:29:24.920
team of those eight because they had Nick Timberlake leading
594
00:29:24.960 --> 00:29:25.440
the charge.
595
00:29:25.440 --> 00:29:25.680
There.
596
00:29:25.839 --> 00:29:28.359
But you've had one good, one kind of good, and
597
00:29:28.400 --> 00:29:31.680
then a whole bunch of mediocre to bad, Like why
598
00:29:31.920 --> 00:29:34.759
like what is this seems to be the only coach
599
00:29:34.839 --> 00:29:37.720
that's like not trying And then they like Jaden Dawson
600
00:29:37.720 --> 00:29:41.119
and Cole Rizarrio get so few minutes when now Marco
601
00:29:41.240 --> 00:29:45.480
Jackson gives you nothing. I truly don't get it. We're
602
00:29:45.480 --> 00:29:49.799
not analyzing it too much, but landon what gives.
603
00:29:52.440 --> 00:29:55.559
I don't repeat repeat the question for me real quick.
604
00:29:55.599 --> 00:29:57.519
I was, I was researching my bracket.
605
00:29:58.599 --> 00:30:01.079
It's just it was just a shrug. Why why does
606
00:30:01.559 --> 00:30:05.119
recruiting three point show? Why does bill self? Is it
607
00:30:05.160 --> 00:30:07.119
bad luck? Is it just a bad mindset?
608
00:30:07.160 --> 00:30:07.279
Like?
609
00:30:07.440 --> 00:30:10.359
Why is the three point shot? Both shooting it and
610
00:30:10.400 --> 00:30:14.000
guarding it just not seem to be a priority, Like
611
00:30:14.279 --> 00:30:17.240
they haven't. They've had one good three point shooting team,
612
00:30:17.680 --> 00:30:20.400
one good three point shooting team since twenty eighteen, and
613
00:30:20.440 --> 00:30:21.920
shockingly they won the title with it.
614
00:30:24.599 --> 00:30:28.440
The guarding it thing is a really good question that
615
00:30:28.599 --> 00:30:31.920
I really I'm not sure on. I wonder if that's like,
616
00:30:31.960 --> 00:30:35.680
if there's something specific in the defensive philosophy that just
617
00:30:35.759 --> 00:30:38.039
leads to more open shots that's gonna lead to more
618
00:30:38.079 --> 00:30:39.799
makes be cause it's I mean, it's a it's a
619
00:30:39.880 --> 00:30:43.440
year over year thing at this point that people make
620
00:30:43.559 --> 00:30:45.319
a lot of threes. But then you know, you watch
621
00:30:45.359 --> 00:30:47.480
the games and it's like, well, you know, teams give
622
00:30:47.559 --> 00:30:49.400
up plenty of threes and and some of these threes
623
00:30:49.440 --> 00:30:52.079
are pretty pretty wild to make on a consistent basis,
624
00:30:52.359 --> 00:30:54.720
So I'm not really sure as far as the recruiting
625
00:30:55.440 --> 00:31:00.359
and the actual three point shooting four Kansas. I think
626
00:31:00.359 --> 00:31:05.480
it's partly bad luck, but I think it's partly bad
627
00:31:05.599 --> 00:31:10.319
luck mixed with system. I think there is a I
628
00:31:10.599 --> 00:31:14.519
think Rylan Griffin and Zeke Mayo are a great ab
629
00:31:14.759 --> 00:31:18.599
test for this in the sense that they're a great
630
00:31:18.599 --> 00:31:23.519
comparison point. I believe because Ryland Griffin is a system
631
00:31:23.759 --> 00:31:28.279
three point shooter. He is a off ball like move
632
00:31:28.400 --> 00:31:33.319
in space, primarily catch and shoot three point shooter, that's
633
00:31:33.359 --> 00:31:38.960
where he does his damage. And Zeke Mayo is a
634
00:31:39.039 --> 00:31:43.079
on ball, dribble around, come off a screen. He's obviously
635
00:31:43.119 --> 00:31:44.640
a really good catch and shoot shooter as well, but
636
00:31:45.200 --> 00:31:47.680
he can make shots happen kind of wherever he wants.
637
00:31:49.960 --> 00:31:53.119
And I think the reason that Zeke Mayo still had
638
00:31:53.160 --> 00:31:55.759
a really really high volume is because a player like
639
00:31:55.799 --> 00:31:58.359
that can kind of break a system, like a player
640
00:31:58.400 --> 00:32:00.000
like that can just kind of be his own system
641
00:32:00.079 --> 00:32:02.880
them at least more so than other guys, whereas Griffin
642
00:32:03.279 --> 00:32:06.720
is going to be way more dependent on everything else
643
00:32:07.400 --> 00:32:08.480
going right around him.
644
00:32:08.480 --> 00:32:08.559
Now.
645
00:32:08.599 --> 00:32:10.920
Also, those players were good and very flawed in other
646
00:32:10.960 --> 00:32:15.319
ways too, But it's similar with Peterson, and he obviously
647
00:32:15.359 --> 00:32:17.880
shoots a really low percentage right now, but his three
648
00:32:17.880 --> 00:32:20.119
point shooting is pretty good. But that's also because he can,
649
00:32:20.200 --> 00:32:23.920
like he can just do everything on offense. He can
650
00:32:24.000 --> 00:32:26.480
he can dribble in and out of space, he can
651
00:32:26.559 --> 00:32:28.160
take pull up shots, he can come off screens, he
652
00:32:28.160 --> 00:32:29.480
can catch a shooting and do anything.
653
00:32:30.440 --> 00:32:30.680
Uh.
654
00:32:30.880 --> 00:32:32.720
And that's just something that wasn't true for Griffin. And
655
00:32:32.839 --> 00:32:34.559
so I think a lot of that has to do
656
00:32:34.680 --> 00:32:37.680
with it in that I think the bill self system
657
00:32:37.720 --> 00:32:41.519
is outdated and unless you have guys who are really
658
00:32:41.559 --> 00:32:46.319
good on ball players, it's really tough for them to
659
00:32:46.640 --> 00:32:48.839
be great three point shooters in a system that does
660
00:32:48.920 --> 00:32:51.319
not prioritize three point shooting.
661
00:32:53.480 --> 00:32:56.039
Yep, that's what Cam. That's basically what you've been saying
662
00:32:56.039 --> 00:32:59.039
all year as well, Like it's you're you're you're one
663
00:32:59.119 --> 00:33:02.200
not having like you do get guys like Zeitmeo who
664
00:33:02.200 --> 00:33:03.960
are just good three point shooters and they and they
665
00:33:04.000 --> 00:33:06.160
just make it happen. So you haven't had the best
666
00:33:06.200 --> 00:33:08.119
fortune with it because you got guys like Ryland Griffin
667
00:33:08.160 --> 00:33:11.599
and aj Store and Nick Timberlake who all had good
668
00:33:11.640 --> 00:33:13.839
shooting seasons and then they gets Kansas in the four
669
00:33:13.920 --> 00:33:16.759
falls out. But then you also have a coach that's
670
00:33:16.839 --> 00:33:18.759
just not choosing to make that a big part of
671
00:33:18.759 --> 00:33:21.960
his game. And I mean, Arizona doesn't shoot a lot
672
00:33:21.960 --> 00:33:23.599
of threes, but they can make them when they need to.
673
00:33:23.759 --> 00:33:26.039
Iowa State, it's always good shooting the three ball. Houston's
674
00:33:26.039 --> 00:33:27.559
only got a couple guys that can make threes, but
675
00:33:27.599 --> 00:33:29.359
they seem to not fall whenever they they seem to
676
00:33:29.359 --> 00:33:32.480
fall whenever they need it. Kansas's offense is just getting
677
00:33:32.519 --> 00:33:35.119
worse by the year, as you point out several times
678
00:33:35.160 --> 00:33:38.000
over the course of this year, three straight years outside
679
00:33:38.000 --> 00:33:40.839
the top fifty on Ken Palm. I'm looking at the
680
00:33:40.920 --> 00:33:45.799
list of so of all of any team that is
681
00:33:45.839 --> 00:33:49.880
a top seven seed in the NCAA Tournament, Kansas has
682
00:33:49.920 --> 00:33:52.400
the worst Ken Palm offense, number fifty seven.
683
00:33:54.559 --> 00:33:58.960
Yeah, it's pretty bad. I don't have like tons of
684
00:33:59.000 --> 00:34:00.640
I'm not trying to be like overly negative, but like
685
00:34:00.799 --> 00:34:02.319
I don't have tons of reason to think like it
686
00:34:02.359 --> 00:34:05.160
will change because next year we have some great players
687
00:34:05.160 --> 00:34:07.640
allegedly coming in, but it's kind of the same system
688
00:34:07.720 --> 00:34:10.719
year in year out, so we'll see, Hey, maybe maybe
689
00:34:10.719 --> 00:34:13.679
things will radically change. Maybe the system will change over
690
00:34:13.719 --> 00:34:14.679
the offseason. Who knows.
691
00:34:16.440 --> 00:34:19.079
Let's talk about the rest of this game, which is
692
00:34:19.159 --> 00:34:21.760
cor Rozario had eight points off the bench in garbage time.
693
00:34:22.000 --> 00:34:25.000
Super happy that Bill Self waited until minute number seventy
694
00:34:25.039 --> 00:34:27.480
of this eighty game or eighty minute tournament to get
695
00:34:27.519 --> 00:34:29.960
him off the bench. That's good. He played ten fewer
696
00:34:30.000 --> 00:34:32.360
minutes than Almarco Jackson will have. Why would you want
697
00:34:32.360 --> 00:34:34.639
to risk screw up his efficiency numbers by playing the
698
00:34:34.760 --> 00:34:38.559
more trivia question? So, Melvin Council, if you go minimum
699
00:34:38.559 --> 00:34:41.239
ten shots, had the second worst shooting percentage of any
700
00:34:41.239 --> 00:34:44.159
player in a Bill Self era one for fourteen. Who
701
00:34:44.239 --> 00:34:46.719
was the only Bill Self era player that went zero
702
00:34:46.760 --> 00:34:48.519
for ten in a basketball game? Do you either you
703
00:34:48.840 --> 00:34:49.039
know this?
704
00:34:51.079 --> 00:34:52.159
Wayne, I'll take.
705
00:34:53.679 --> 00:34:55.039
First guess.
706
00:34:55.840 --> 00:34:57.639
Yes, that's impressive.
707
00:34:58.159 --> 00:35:02.800
Yeah, you remember when it was no, it wasn't it
708
00:35:02.840 --> 00:35:06.519
was no, it was and it was not. Now he
709
00:35:06.599 --> 00:35:09.920
was oh for six from three, but uh he he
710
00:35:10.000 --> 00:35:13.559
made a couple twos. Wayne Seldon was oh for ten
711
00:35:14.000 --> 00:35:16.679
and the championship game of a Feast week tournament where
712
00:35:16.760 --> 00:35:20.239
Kansas played Michigan State in twenty fourteen, oh for ten
713
00:35:20.280 --> 00:35:21.800
from wow.
714
00:35:22.039 --> 00:35:22.519
Very actill?
715
00:35:22.760 --> 00:35:24.519
Yeah, Okay, in my part.
716
00:35:24.840 --> 00:35:28.440
So Belton was actually Selden was actually six for fourteen
717
00:35:28.679 --> 00:35:31.239
in the Villanova game. He was six for eight from
718
00:35:31.239 --> 00:35:34.280
two and an oh four to six. Count them six
719
00:35:34.559 --> 00:35:39.360
bricks from the three point line here they are. One
720
00:35:39.360 --> 00:35:41.719
of them just crash landed in your yard if you
721
00:35:41.719 --> 00:35:43.280
know that hail the other day in the area. One
722
00:35:43.320 --> 00:35:46.079
of those was those threes from the KFC Young Center cam.
723
00:35:46.119 --> 00:35:47.360
You were there, how'd that go?
724
00:35:48.159 --> 00:35:51.559
Each one of those became egregiously more bad, like just
725
00:35:52.039 --> 00:35:53.639
more and more sad.
726
00:35:54.599 --> 00:35:56.519
Honestly, if he had made one of them, they probably
727
00:35:56.559 --> 00:35:57.320
win too.
728
00:35:57.559 --> 00:35:59.840
That's correct. He made like twenty in a row warm ups.
729
00:36:01.599 --> 00:36:04.559
The image that Landon has posted here in the notes
730
00:36:04.639 --> 00:36:06.360
is far and away the best thing about that game
731
00:36:06.440 --> 00:36:08.880
unless you're a Houston fan. That's all we got from
732
00:36:08.920 --> 00:36:11.920
this game, land And in the pregame, our pre show meeting.
733
00:36:12.000 --> 00:36:14.320
I know that we have recapped a couple other things.
734
00:36:14.360 --> 00:36:16.920
But you said, I can't wait to be at minute
735
00:36:17.000 --> 00:36:20.320
thirty seven and still be talking about the Houston game. Well,
736
00:36:20.360 --> 00:36:22.199
jokes on you. We're only at thirty six and a half.
737
00:36:23.079 --> 00:36:24.159
That's true, That's true.
738
00:36:25.000 --> 00:36:27.360
It's almost like he knows how itp works. Folks.
739
00:36:28.679 --> 00:36:29.480
Tosh goes.
740
00:36:30.360 --> 00:36:32.760
I'm not reading this shooting percentage stats because they're all bad.
741
00:36:32.800 --> 00:36:35.559
All right, here's your quick little feast week tournament. Then
742
00:36:35.599 --> 00:36:37.679
we can go on to our feast week recap, and
743
00:36:37.719 --> 00:36:41.360
then we can go on Champions, Champions, Leeks, Champions. Wee
744
00:36:41.719 --> 00:36:45.559
man killing Wayne Selden mode. I'm O for ten shooting
745
00:36:45.679 --> 00:36:47.239
on this on this podcast.
746
00:36:47.320 --> 00:36:47.880
It's rough.
747
00:36:48.039 --> 00:36:50.400
Each one's getting worse. Okay, fine, somebody else tell me
748
00:36:50.440 --> 00:36:54.480
about Big twelve that is no longer won or dominated
749
00:36:54.519 --> 00:36:54.920
by the.
750
00:36:54.880 --> 00:36:55.480
Team we like.
751
00:36:56.800 --> 00:37:00.480
No, No, Instead, Number two Arizona, who built a big lead,
752
00:37:00.800 --> 00:37:03.840
watched to evaporate but ended strong to close that Number
753
00:37:03.840 --> 00:37:06.559
five Houston in the title game. They win the conference
754
00:37:06.559 --> 00:37:09.079
final score seventy nine seventy four. There they also beat
755
00:37:09.159 --> 00:37:11.559
number seven Iowa State in the Semis in one of
756
00:37:11.599 --> 00:37:14.800
the greatest basketball games of the twenty first century. I
757
00:37:14.880 --> 00:37:16.880
did get to watch the last five minutes, and it
758
00:37:16.920 --> 00:37:18.960
lived up to that billion certainly.
759
00:37:19.079 --> 00:37:21.079
Well, basically all this stuff we just talked about, how
760
00:37:21.159 --> 00:37:24.239
Kansas doesn't ever shoot or make threes the opposite of that.
761
00:37:25.079 --> 00:37:27.719
Yeah, these teams went sick o mode in the last
762
00:37:27.760 --> 00:37:31.400
five minutes thirteen of fifteen from the floor combined, including
763
00:37:31.519 --> 00:37:35.039
seven of seven from three in the final four minutes
764
00:37:35.079 --> 00:37:39.559
before Jaden Bradley hit a buzzer beater, which was also
765
00:37:39.800 --> 00:37:44.039
incredibly well defended. Mind you, like, this was not just
766
00:37:44.079 --> 00:37:47.000
a wide open shot that he found space in. This
767
00:37:47.119 --> 00:37:50.280
was a desperation but not like I say, desperation. But
768
00:37:50.320 --> 00:37:52.320
it wasn't like an off balance shot either. This was
769
00:37:52.360 --> 00:37:56.320
just incredibly high level basketball being played, and Bradley found
770
00:37:56.519 --> 00:37:59.679
the winner. Combined with Michigan's lost, the Wildcats earned the
771
00:37:59.719 --> 00:38:03.599
second at number one seed in the NCAA Tournament.
772
00:38:04.639 --> 00:38:07.679
They're so good, they are so good, so well coached,
773
00:38:07.679 --> 00:38:10.000
they sweep everything they win Big twelve.
774
00:38:10.440 --> 00:38:11.920
They're the best team in the country.
775
00:38:13.280 --> 00:38:18.000
Yeah, well, not the selection committee. That's still Daddy Duke's job.
776
00:38:18.239 --> 00:38:20.039
But yes, I think there. I think they should have
777
00:38:20.039 --> 00:38:21.840
been the one, the number one overall. I think they
778
00:38:21.920 --> 00:38:24.679
earned it. But they sweep everything. Regular season player of
779
00:38:24.679 --> 00:38:28.199
the Year, Coach of the year, uh, several guys on
780
00:38:28.280 --> 00:38:30.360
the all first twelve of a big team that has
781
00:38:30.440 --> 00:38:34.239
one thousand players now, regular season champs, postseason champs. They
782
00:38:34.239 --> 00:38:35.840
were the best Big twelve team in the non con
783
00:38:35.920 --> 00:38:37.880
the best in the conference play, and the best in
784
00:38:37.920 --> 00:38:39.559
the tournament, they will see if they're the best in
785
00:38:39.599 --> 00:38:45.119
the NCAA. Is really good team.
786
00:38:43.280 --> 00:38:46.679
Speaking of a really good team, see we'll do Number ten.
787
00:38:46.760 --> 00:38:49.280
Virginia gave Number one Duke a great test, but the
788
00:38:49.280 --> 00:38:52.719
Blue Devils ultimately brought home a second straight ACC Tournament title,
789
00:38:52.719 --> 00:38:55.280
winning seventy four to seventy. The Blue Devils are the
790
00:38:55.320 --> 00:38:58.400
top seed in the NCAA Tournament. The Cavaliers are twenty
791
00:38:58.480 --> 00:39:00.280
nine to five, despite being one of the LEAs talked
792
00:39:00.280 --> 00:39:01.360
about teams in the country.
793
00:39:02.280 --> 00:39:06.079
Yeah, they're fascinating because I didn't know they were twenty
794
00:39:06.159 --> 00:39:09.000
nine and five, Like they are a three seed, and
795
00:39:09.039 --> 00:39:12.000
I think everyone's like, oh, Virginia's here, which that used
796
00:39:12.000 --> 00:39:14.320
to be my attitude. But now that Tony Bennett is dead,
797
00:39:14.400 --> 00:39:18.639
rest is soul. I am willing to consider dating Virginia again.
798
00:39:19.320 --> 00:39:22.039
You know, they've gotten better, They've moved on from that
799
00:39:22.159 --> 00:39:25.639
toxic stage. Still think God might dislike him. Still would
800
00:39:25.719 --> 00:39:28.199
laugh my ass off if they lost in funny fashion
801
00:39:28.239 --> 00:39:31.159
in the tournament. But you know, Ryan Otam, you're doing
802
00:39:31.159 --> 00:39:34.440
a better job. Thumbs up in the Big ten. Number
803
00:39:34.480 --> 00:39:37.440
eighteen Perdue Speaking of teams we laugh about. They finished
804
00:39:37.480 --> 00:39:40.840
the regular season in seventh place. They won four games
805
00:39:40.880 --> 00:39:44.400
in four days to take home the conference tournament, vaults
806
00:39:44.480 --> 00:39:47.280
them into a two seed in March Madness. The selection
807
00:39:47.360 --> 00:39:50.320
committee talked about how if Purdue had lost this game,
808
00:39:50.679 --> 00:39:53.519
it would have been Michigan State being the two and
809
00:39:53.559 --> 00:39:56.000
Purdue being a three, which that would have shuffled up
810
00:39:56.039 --> 00:39:57.800
quite a bit. To say, at least, they took down
811
00:39:57.800 --> 00:40:00.840
Northwestern Nebraska UCLA and then number three Michigan in the
812
00:40:00.840 --> 00:40:03.239
finals eighty to seventy two. They pretty much controlled the
813
00:40:03.280 --> 00:40:06.480
second half here. The Wolverines. Meanwhile, they needed a buzzer
814
00:40:06.480 --> 00:40:09.960
beater from Yoxall Lindenborg just to get there. They had
815
00:40:10.000 --> 00:40:13.400
that in the semis against Wisconsin. Are we a little
816
00:40:13.440 --> 00:40:16.159
concerned about Wisconsin they've been or about Michigan Rather, they've
817
00:40:16.159 --> 00:40:19.039
been a little wobbly. Despite being the healthiest of the
818
00:40:19.079 --> 00:40:21.360
big three.
819
00:40:21.039 --> 00:40:24.840
They they haven't looked great in the last couple of weeks.
820
00:40:25.000 --> 00:40:28.039
I wouldn't. I don't know if concerned is the right word.
821
00:40:28.119 --> 00:40:30.639
They had such an amazing like regular season. They may
822
00:40:30.719 --> 00:40:33.840
just be cooling down a little bit, but it's probably
823
00:40:33.880 --> 00:40:36.480
not the way you want to look heading into the tournament.
824
00:40:37.559 --> 00:40:40.280
I definitely feel the least confident about them of the
825
00:40:40.400 --> 00:40:43.320
three number one seeds, and that may be, you know,
826
00:40:43.440 --> 00:40:45.760
that may not matter. They may all make the final four.
827
00:40:46.079 --> 00:40:47.920
But if I had to pick right now, if you
828
00:40:47.960 --> 00:40:50.760
told me two one seeds make the final four, who doesn't,
829
00:40:50.800 --> 00:40:51.760
they'd be the one I pick.
830
00:40:53.519 --> 00:40:56.199
Yeah. A lot of Big ten coach, a lot of
831
00:40:56.199 --> 00:40:58.840
Big ten fans really hate Michigan. Apparently a lot of
832
00:40:58.880 --> 00:41:01.239
the coaches do as well with Dusty may So I'm
833
00:41:01.239 --> 00:41:02.719
sure there'd be a lot of happy people if they
834
00:41:02.760 --> 00:41:03.400
do fizzle out.
835
00:41:04.400 --> 00:41:06.440
And let me bitch about Purdue fans for a second,
836
00:41:06.519 --> 00:41:10.119
because I freaking Clark Kellogg picked Perdue to win the
837
00:41:10.199 --> 00:41:13.320
national title on the Selection show. He's like, guys, I'm
838
00:41:13.360 --> 00:41:15.800
telling you they have such a good chance for a
839
00:41:15.880 --> 00:41:19.239
storybook ending because the final four is in Indianapolis, Buddy,
840
00:41:19.280 --> 00:41:22.440
have you watched Purdue play basketball in this tournament before?
841
00:41:22.679 --> 00:41:25.000
And I said that on Twitter and someone was like,
842
00:41:25.079 --> 00:41:28.920
someone sent a screenshot of Kansas's last like ten years
843
00:41:28.960 --> 00:41:31.719
of first and second round losses, and I noticed that
844
00:41:31.760 --> 00:41:35.719
they backspaced over twenty twenty two, twenty eighteen, and two
845
00:41:35.760 --> 00:41:38.360
thousand and eight. It's like, hmm, well, you look at
846
00:41:38.360 --> 00:41:40.920
that when you take out all Kansas's good years, you
847
00:41:41.000 --> 00:41:44.480
get some early exits. When you take out Perdue's good years.
848
00:41:44.639 --> 00:41:47.800
Oh it's it's just the full list of early exits.
849
00:41:48.199 --> 00:41:52.559
Everybody's like, we made that title three years ago. Yeah,
850
00:41:52.639 --> 00:41:55.800
landon what happened the four consecutive years before that? You know,
851
00:41:57.920 --> 00:42:01.480
all first round exits, right, not all first round exits,
852
00:42:01.519 --> 00:42:05.719
but all lost the elegit seeds sixteen seed. They actually
853
00:42:05.800 --> 00:42:07.960
made the sweet sixteen the year before that, lost to
854
00:42:08.000 --> 00:42:11.039
a peacock in the in the two v fifteen or
855
00:42:11.079 --> 00:42:15.679
whatever three fifteen sweet sixteen game, they lost to North Texas.
856
00:42:15.880 --> 00:42:19.960
They had that unbelievable pant soiling of a lifetime against
857
00:42:20.039 --> 00:42:22.440
Virginia where they missed the free throw and the guy like,
858
00:42:22.519 --> 00:42:26.519
yeat it from the three point line? N Nah, Sorry,
859
00:42:26.679 --> 00:42:28.840
you gotta win one. Before we talked about Purdue and
860
00:42:29.679 --> 00:42:31.719
if you're a Purdue fan, you just have to wear it. Sorry,
861
00:42:31.760 --> 00:42:34.440
you just do your perennial chokers. I like Matt Painer.
862
00:42:34.480 --> 00:42:36.679
He's a nice guy. He's not an ass wipe like
863
00:42:36.719 --> 00:42:38.440
a lot of the other coaches in this sport are.
864
00:42:38.679 --> 00:42:41.280
But he's a choke artist. He is what you are,
865
00:42:41.320 --> 00:42:43.920
what your resume says you are gotta win one. Same
866
00:42:43.960 --> 00:42:46.000
with you, Mark Few and your yetty teeth.
867
00:42:46.880 --> 00:42:50.280
Number seventeen Arkansas. They won the SEC tournament, beating number
868
00:42:50.280 --> 00:42:52.519
twenty two Vanderbilt by eleven in the finals. But the
869
00:42:52.559 --> 00:42:55.920
biggest takeaway from that tournament was fifteen seed all Miss
870
00:42:56.239 --> 00:42:58.760
making a run by winning three games in three days
871
00:42:58.840 --> 00:43:02.760
and then taking the Razorbacks to overtime in the Semis.
872
00:43:03.000 --> 00:43:06.119
But Darius Acuff, who I would, uh, well, should I
873
00:43:06.119 --> 00:43:07.599
say this take here? Or should I say it else?
874
00:43:07.880 --> 00:43:10.519
I would take Darius Acuff over Darren Peterson.
875
00:43:12.159 --> 00:43:17.119
Podcast. No, he's fired, Well you missed? If I fire
876
00:43:17.159 --> 00:43:17.559
you losing?
877
00:43:18.280 --> 00:43:21.079
What a shame? Maybe one should I? Should I take
878
00:43:21.079 --> 00:43:22.360
my stuff now? Or should I wait?
879
00:43:22.440 --> 00:43:25.239
Big time? Michael Scott, you're fired. You don't get to
880
00:43:25.320 --> 00:43:28.199
quit your fired energy there right?
881
00:43:28.920 --> 00:43:29.519
Uh.
882
00:43:29.559 --> 00:43:33.280
He was just too much for the for for ole Miss.
883
00:43:33.280 --> 00:43:35.400
He was too much for everybody because Arkansas won the tournament.
884
00:43:35.440 --> 00:43:37.800
He was brilliant in the title game too. Uh. Florida
885
00:43:37.920 --> 00:43:40.800
also got trounced by the Commodore's in the Semis, but
886
00:43:40.920 --> 00:43:43.199
all their challengers for the last one seed also lost
887
00:43:43.239 --> 00:43:46.159
in other tournaments, so did not affect their seating at all,
888
00:43:47.559 --> 00:43:49.280
Arkansas good.
889
00:43:49.239 --> 00:43:53.039
And Kentucky stupid for walking on John Caliperry let that.
890
00:43:53.079 --> 00:43:55.760
I would have won that tournament. Miami of Ohio would
891
00:43:55.760 --> 00:43:56.840
not be in the dance right now.
892
00:43:57.519 --> 00:43:59.440
I don't think that wound up being true. They weren't
893
00:43:59.440 --> 00:44:01.760
on the official seedless, they were not the last team
894
00:44:01.760 --> 00:44:04.400
in the dance. That was CBS being stupid. That was
895
00:44:04.400 --> 00:44:06.400
Seth Davis being a mouth breathing idiot.
896
00:44:07.519 --> 00:44:09.320
Well, I guess that would be the first time.
897
00:44:10.400 --> 00:44:13.639
No, so guess I want you to guess. I put
898
00:44:13.760 --> 00:44:16.800
on Twitter when Seth Davis is making his final four
899
00:44:16.840 --> 00:44:20.079
picks over under five and a half cumulative total of
900
00:44:20.119 --> 00:44:23.679
the fourth seeds in Seth Davis's bracket, and it was
901
00:44:23.760 --> 00:44:26.440
an under. He went one, one, one, two with a
902
00:44:26.599 --> 00:44:29.840
five total. M glad we have that blowhard on TV.
903
00:44:29.920 --> 00:44:31.199
Where else could we get to?
904
00:44:32.079 --> 00:44:34.039
Last year was exactly four?
905
00:44:35.000 --> 00:44:37.079
That's true. I didn't say it wasn't the smart pick.
906
00:44:37.119 --> 00:44:39.719
I just said we don't need that insight. It's not
907
00:44:39.800 --> 00:44:43.559
bringing anything to the table on to I could go
908
00:44:43.880 --> 00:44:46.400
not be on TV. That's what I want.
909
00:44:46.920 --> 00:44:50.400
Seth Davis's account exactly that is correct. Do you want
910
00:44:50.400 --> 00:44:52.079
all these guys to not be on TV and not
911
00:44:52.119 --> 00:44:53.400
do a bracket.
912
00:44:53.519 --> 00:44:55.360
Most of them. I think the three of us should
913
00:44:55.400 --> 00:44:57.519
be on the selection show. I think we should give
914
00:44:57.519 --> 00:45:00.599
our takes. If Bruce cal gets to talk about Auburn,
915
00:45:01.239 --> 00:45:03.119
I think you. I think the three of us should
916
00:45:03.119 --> 00:45:05.280
put on our finest suits and sit right next to
917
00:45:05.440 --> 00:45:08.199
whoever the guy that reads the bracket is and give
918
00:45:08.239 --> 00:45:10.360
our thoughts. You think they'd like that if they're like
919
00:45:10.519 --> 00:45:12.400
and the two seed is Purdue and I was like,
920
00:45:12.679 --> 00:45:15.079
look at these jackass chokers, can't wait to see who
921
00:45:15.079 --> 00:45:17.000
they lose to. You think that'd be what the people
922
00:45:17.039 --> 00:45:17.480
would want.
923
00:45:17.599 --> 00:45:17.920
I do.
924
00:45:18.000 --> 00:45:19.679
I think people would watch and be like the Manning
925
00:45:19.719 --> 00:45:21.960
cast interesting.
926
00:45:22.000 --> 00:45:25.199
I think you're wrong, But anyway, I also think you're wrong.
927
00:45:25.320 --> 00:45:28.199
I run these numbers a lot landing and we get
928
00:45:28.280 --> 00:45:31.159
almost as many listeners as CBS gets for the selection show,
929
00:45:31.239 --> 00:45:32.280
So I think it's too cool.
930
00:45:32.519 --> 00:45:35.079
Well, hey, you can't dispute facts there, that's for sure.
931
00:45:38.840 --> 00:45:41.840
Where were we We're in the Big East. I'm not
932
00:45:41.880 --> 00:45:45.199
reading this one.
933
00:45:45.679 --> 00:45:48.360
Okay, I'll do it here. The big loser of the
934
00:45:48.360 --> 00:45:51.519
Big East was not only number six Yukon, but also
935
00:45:51.679 --> 00:45:55.000
if you're going by Pickham number one, Cam who lost
936
00:45:55.000 --> 00:45:56.920
several bets on Dan.
937
00:45:56.960 --> 00:46:01.239
Hur Ryan's Lock of the week.
938
00:46:02.480 --> 00:46:05.639
Had so many times not to bet on what I know,
939
00:46:05.719 --> 00:46:09.239
how many have I said, yeah, instant you take my
940
00:46:09.360 --> 00:46:11.079
lock of the week and put money on it, it
941
00:46:11.119 --> 00:46:12.039
will blow off.
942
00:46:13.199 --> 00:46:18.079
Yeah. Yeah. It kind of exploded on takeoff. It was
943
00:46:18.119 --> 00:46:20.559
like twelve to four in the first like four minutes
944
00:46:20.599 --> 00:46:22.519
in a texta group, and I was like, Saint John's
945
00:46:22.559 --> 00:46:24.119
is like pissing on Yukon.
946
00:46:26.360 --> 00:46:27.360
And they did not stop.
947
00:46:28.079 --> 00:46:31.519
No, they were crushed by number thirteen Saint John's, five
948
00:46:31.559 --> 00:46:34.199
seeds Saint John's, mind you and the final seventy two
949
00:46:34.280 --> 00:46:37.519
to fifty two Saint John's. They get the regular season title,
950
00:46:37.760 --> 00:46:40.519
they get the tournament title. Surely that resume is worthy
951
00:46:40.519 --> 00:46:41.920
of at least the four seed.
952
00:46:42.000 --> 00:46:45.199
Right, surely, if only.
953
00:46:45.960 --> 00:46:50.840
If only, if only. Other Championship Week notes, Utah State
954
00:46:50.880 --> 00:46:53.360
popped San Diego State's bubble to win the Mountain West.
955
00:46:53.679 --> 00:46:56.840
Penn upset Yale behind Fran McCaffrey to win the IVY
956
00:46:56.920 --> 00:47:00.159
League behind forty four pence from TJ Power vcu hew
957
00:47:00.239 --> 00:47:02.599
Off Daton when they a ten. South Florida took down
958
00:47:02.599 --> 00:47:05.480
a feisty Wichita State team in the American led by
959
00:47:05.800 --> 00:47:08.880
Greg Marshall's wife fighting people, and then umbc is back
960
00:47:08.920 --> 00:47:10.719
in the dance for the first time since the Virginia
961
00:47:10.760 --> 00:47:14.800
game by winning the American East. Also Howard won the
962
00:47:15.239 --> 00:47:18.480
MEAC and how proud would Kamala Harris be?
963
00:47:19.480 --> 00:47:23.000
Oh, they did so good. They did so so good.
964
00:47:23.840 --> 00:47:25.679
That's about how Kamala did in the last election.
965
00:47:28.960 --> 00:47:31.480
Oh man, I don't know what dropped to play there.
966
00:47:31.639 --> 00:47:32.880
I'll just it's the.
967
00:47:33.199 --> 00:47:35.440
I'm just saying facts. I'm just saying what happened.
968
00:47:35.679 --> 00:47:38.920
He's not wrong. The the the same speech she gave,
969
00:47:39.119 --> 00:47:41.639
like to Howard after Kansas beat them into oblivion that
970
00:47:41.679 --> 00:47:44.480
one time is basically the equivalent of her going to
971
00:47:44.880 --> 00:47:47.679
h D Day and speaking to the Germans being like,
972
00:47:47.760 --> 00:47:50.679
I'm really proud of how hard you guys work today. Yeah,
973
00:47:50.719 --> 00:47:53.280
like four dudes of two like one leg left gonna
974
00:47:53.320 --> 00:47:59.280
be like they're all like crawling out of the bunkers.
975
00:48:00.440 --> 00:48:03.280
Ranked teams to lose since the last show, everybody except
976
00:48:03.280 --> 00:48:06.280
for Arizona, Purdue and Duke. Basically that's that's their last
977
00:48:08.239 --> 00:48:11.639
all right Now, we're gonna go right into into Kansas
978
00:48:11.679 --> 00:48:14.119
preview maybe for Landon's last show out of tribute. I
979
00:48:14.119 --> 00:48:16.400
will push no drops. Maybe that'll be my gift to
980
00:48:16.480 --> 00:48:17.880
landon his parting.
981
00:48:17.519 --> 00:48:19.639
Gasp for he wins pick them.
982
00:48:19.639 --> 00:48:25.360
Of course, let's preview this game for KU number thirteen
983
00:48:25.559 --> 00:48:30.119
California Baptist versus Number four Kansas. Game will be on Friday,
984
00:48:30.159 --> 00:48:32.800
March twentieth at eight forty five pm. Just kidding, it
985
00:48:32.840 --> 00:48:35.760
will be later. That's only if the first games gets
986
00:48:35.760 --> 00:48:39.639
over with on time, which is probably the Saint John's game.
987
00:48:39.960 --> 00:48:43.239
Can't wait, can't wait to open the next show with
988
00:48:43.360 --> 00:48:48.280
guys Kansas Crush California Baptist and Saint John's took an
989
00:48:48.480 --> 00:48:52.559
l opening the path for Kansas. They get revenge on
990
00:48:52.800 --> 00:48:54.239
Northern Iowa coming.
991
00:48:54.320 --> 00:48:57.920
They will not lose.
992
00:48:59.440 --> 00:49:04.320
Wonker wheeled that in. He wielled that into existence, is
993
00:49:04.320 --> 00:49:07.079
what he did. Six seed in the MVC. I believe
994
00:49:07.119 --> 00:49:09.760
Northern Iowa went all the way and won that thing.
995
00:49:10.000 --> 00:49:12.320
It was supposed to be Belmont who just hired or
996
00:49:12.360 --> 00:49:14.760
their coach just got hired by Kansas State after they
997
00:49:14.760 --> 00:49:19.599
got pooped on it a weird again, Belmont lost by
998
00:49:19.760 --> 00:49:23.159
like twenty two to nine seed Drake in their in
999
00:49:23.239 --> 00:49:26.599
their NBC tournament opener, and yes, then then their coach
1000
00:49:26.679 --> 00:49:28.800
left for Case State. He was walking around Bramle's just
1001
00:49:28.880 --> 00:49:31.480
kind of looking up at the bleachers sighing, like doing
1002
00:49:31.480 --> 00:49:33.840
these loud sighs, and it was like microphone for the
1003
00:49:33.920 --> 00:49:36.440
video Case State made and one of the one of
1004
00:49:36.440 --> 00:49:39.159
the KU tweeted. One of the KU accounts tweeted, it's
1005
00:49:39.239 --> 00:49:41.119
nice that they invited all their fans there for this
1006
00:49:41.159 --> 00:49:44.920
because it's empty arena. That tweet got more likes and
1007
00:49:44.920 --> 00:49:48.079
retweets than Case States. This is our new coach introductory tweet,
1008
00:49:48.079 --> 00:49:49.000
which was pretty funny.
1009
00:49:50.519 --> 00:49:53.000
Rumor has it he he looked up at the banners
1010
00:49:53.000 --> 00:49:55.239
for the n t appearances in the play Hard years
1011
00:49:55.280 --> 00:49:59.000
and he got a little teary eyed, said, I'm.
1012
00:49:58.800 --> 00:50:03.199
Home that that man did not years in dynasty. He
1013
00:50:03.280 --> 00:50:06.039
did not make an NCAA tournament in his seven years
1014
00:50:06.039 --> 00:50:06.679
at Belmont.
1015
00:50:06.719 --> 00:50:07.400
Now there is an.
1016
00:50:07.360 --> 00:50:11.199
Asterisk by that they did win the Missouri Valley Championship
1017
00:50:11.320 --> 00:50:14.360
in twenty twenty, right before COVID shut it down, so
1018
00:50:14.440 --> 00:50:17.119
they would have been in in twenty But still, it's
1019
00:50:17.159 --> 00:50:20.599
not every day that you see a power league school
1020
00:50:21.039 --> 00:50:23.840
hire a guy who coached at a mid major that
1021
00:50:23.960 --> 00:50:26.960
had not made a NCAA tournament, Like, I just feel
1022
00:50:26.960 --> 00:50:29.440
like that's weird. He did make one at his prior school,
1023
00:50:29.480 --> 00:50:32.000
but none at Belmont, which I think is interesting.
1024
00:50:34.400 --> 00:50:36.840
It was a little strange. Has cal Baptist ever made
1025
00:50:36.880 --> 00:50:38.000
the NCAA Tournament before?
1026
00:50:38.679 --> 00:50:40.719
Nope, this is the debut. This is their first one.
1027
00:50:42.440 --> 00:50:45.239
Well, let's talk about him. The cal Baptist Lancers, the
1028
00:50:45.320 --> 00:50:49.599
champions of the Whack Everyone's Favorite Football League from twenty thirteen,
1029
00:50:50.159 --> 00:50:52.960
are twenty five and eight on the year. They finished
1030
00:50:52.960 --> 00:50:56.000
second in the regular season and upset Utah Valley at
1031
00:50:56.000 --> 00:50:59.079
the Buzzer in the championship game to steal the league's bid.
1032
00:50:59.400 --> 00:51:01.800
This is their first NCAA Tournament appearance. If I could read,
1033
00:51:01.880 --> 00:51:04.559
I could have known that just a little bit before.
1034
00:51:05.360 --> 00:51:08.519
They played one ranked team this year, BYU They lost
1035
00:51:08.599 --> 00:51:13.039
by thirty one. I thought it as well. Cam they
1036
00:51:13.119 --> 00:51:13.840
in Colorado.
1037
00:51:14.079 --> 00:51:16.079
Credit on my name for me.
1038
00:51:16.159 --> 00:51:21.960
I didn't. I'm just laying on my bed. I'm not
1039
00:51:22.000 --> 00:51:22.559
doing anything.
1040
00:51:26.159 --> 00:51:30.000
Yes, one hundred percent. They also played Utah I get
1041
00:51:30.039 --> 00:51:33.360
it in Colorado and lost by six and eight respectively.
1042
00:51:33.559 --> 00:51:35.599
That might not matter much because those teams suck.
1043
00:51:37.320 --> 00:51:40.079
Yeah, it took me a minute to get that one anyway.
1044
00:51:40.800 --> 00:51:43.679
Ken pom has cal Baptist at number one hundred and six,
1045
00:51:43.719 --> 00:51:46.599
which is roughly around but Kansas's offense is right about now.
1046
00:51:47.039 --> 00:51:50.679
They are five spots worse than Kansas State defensively, though
1047
00:51:50.719 --> 00:51:52.519
they ranked fiftieth, they have one of the lest three
1048
00:51:52.519 --> 00:51:55.239
point defenses in the country. Their pace is extremely slow,
1049
00:51:55.559 --> 00:51:58.639
and they take seventy percent of the seventy percent of
1050
00:51:58.679 --> 00:52:01.119
their shots from two, which is one of the highest
1051
00:52:01.199 --> 00:52:04.679
rates nationally. They're a very good rebounding team, but they
1052
00:52:04.719 --> 00:52:07.119
don't block many shots to spite their size, and they
1053
00:52:07.119 --> 00:52:09.119
follow a lot. Some would say they're in a later
1054
00:52:09.199 --> 00:52:12.039
stage of grief than what Ryan wrote.
1055
00:52:16.440 --> 00:52:19.239
Man. That is when Steph hit that shot in Oklahoma
1056
00:52:19.360 --> 00:52:22.360
City from half court that had the whole world's attention.
1057
00:52:22.440 --> 00:52:23.360
That is that kind of.
1058
00:52:23.320 --> 00:52:26.000
A cam looking from the way downtown.
1059
00:52:29.440 --> 00:52:32.639
That the cam is the Steph Curry of nukes from
1060
00:52:32.679 --> 00:52:35.800
half court. The man's batting like not the money career
1061
00:52:35.880 --> 00:52:39.400
in text. Yeah, it's the opposite of that. Here are
1062
00:52:39.400 --> 00:52:41.760
the names to know with the Lancers. You got senior
1063
00:52:41.800 --> 00:52:44.480
guard Dominic Daniels. He's the big the big gun here.
1064
00:52:44.480 --> 00:52:48.079
He averages twenty three points per game. That averages fifth nationally.
1065
00:52:48.119 --> 00:52:52.719
I believe there's only Darius Acuff aj Debansa and there's
1066
00:52:52.719 --> 00:52:54.639
a couple other guys that's it, guys that scored more
1067
00:52:54.679 --> 00:52:57.239
points per game than this guy. It is double anyone
1068
00:52:57.239 --> 00:52:59.519
else is on the team scoring average. He makes thirty
1069
00:52:59.519 --> 00:53:01.800
three percent of six threes per game, so he doesn't
1070
00:53:01.800 --> 00:53:03.480
make He's not as much of a three point threat
1071
00:53:03.519 --> 00:53:07.960
as he is a driving teams site. Yes. Yes, the
1072
00:53:08.000 --> 00:53:10.360
best comp I can come up with Dominic Daniels who's
1073
00:53:10.440 --> 00:53:11.800
less than six week tall, is PJ.
1074
00:53:11.960 --> 00:53:12.480
Haggarty.
1075
00:53:12.760 --> 00:53:16.039
That kind of a playing style. Haggarty's really good. And
1076
00:53:16.079 --> 00:53:18.000
then in the games where Kansas blows out Case State,
1077
00:53:18.039 --> 00:53:20.280
he gets us twenty points. Might be the same here.
1078
00:53:21.239 --> 00:53:23.119
He's good at getting the free throw line eighty two
1079
00:53:23.159 --> 00:53:25.679
percent from the line. Dominic Daniels the name to know
1080
00:53:25.800 --> 00:53:29.199
for the Lancers. The guard Martel Williams adds thirteen per night.
1081
00:53:29.239 --> 00:53:31.039
He's the only other scorer that gets you a ten
1082
00:53:31.119 --> 00:53:34.119
of game. Jaden Jackson is the three point threat thirty
1083
00:53:34.119 --> 00:53:35.920
five percent. Not a team that makes a lot of threes.
1084
00:53:36.159 --> 00:53:40.519
And Jonathan Grimmon who is I believe Venezuelan is the
1085
00:53:40.679 --> 00:53:45.960
six foot eleven center, so they don't a lot. He
1086
00:53:46.119 --> 00:53:53.079
is from man Man. He is from Venezuela. So I
1087
00:53:53.159 --> 00:53:55.679
have a joke, but I'm not going to make it.
1088
00:53:56.039 --> 00:53:58.719
I'm not going to say the thing that I'm currently typing.
1089
00:53:58.760 --> 00:54:03.079
In the notes, they're like type really fast and then
1090
00:54:03.559 --> 00:54:05.000
to call.
1091
00:54:05.480 --> 00:54:07.079
I agree with that. I agree with you on that.
1092
00:54:07.440 --> 00:54:10.199
I don't think that's that crazy. I might do it
1093
00:54:10.239 --> 00:54:11.559
for fun anyway.
1094
00:54:14.719 --> 00:54:17.800
Live stream, this is six and one. Our Kansas is
1095
00:54:17.840 --> 00:54:20.440
six and one all time against thirteen seats. Cam. Can
1096
00:54:20.480 --> 00:54:21.760
you guess the loss?
1097
00:54:22.199 --> 00:54:24.159
Yeah, because I was there. It was freaking Bradley and
1098
00:54:24.199 --> 00:54:25.880
I had to stay at a hotel room with some
1099
00:54:25.920 --> 00:54:27.760
weird ass dude and my dad. It was a pretty
1100
00:54:27.800 --> 00:54:30.320
weird night. This guy from our church.
1101
00:54:30.159 --> 00:54:33.119
I would love. Okay, So I wanted this show done
1102
00:54:33.119 --> 00:54:34.599
in less than an hour. We have a couple of
1103
00:54:34.639 --> 00:54:37.159
minutes before we have to hang it up. Uh, tell me, Cam,
1104
00:54:37.239 --> 00:54:39.079
tell me about this man that was in a hotel
1105
00:54:39.159 --> 00:54:39.519
room with you.
1106
00:54:39.599 --> 00:54:41.159
Yeah. Like it was just one of those things, like
1107
00:54:41.199 --> 00:54:44.000
I didn't really understand the thought process here, like we're
1108
00:54:44.000 --> 00:54:46.280
going Apparently he went to Kansas or maybe went to Bradley,
1109
00:54:46.320 --> 00:54:47.800
but we're like, yeah, you can come with us, and
1110
00:54:48.119 --> 00:54:50.320
we got a hotel room somehowly in this hotel room
1111
00:54:50.320 --> 00:54:51.960
and had like a hot tub, which was weird to
1112
00:54:52.000 --> 00:54:54.320
begin with, but it was. It was very bizarre because
1113
00:54:54.360 --> 00:54:56.360
Kansas lost and then we were like, oh, you know,
1114
00:54:56.440 --> 00:54:58.719
we'll just uh, we'll go back to the hotel. And
1115
00:54:58.760 --> 00:55:01.960
I was like, you mean just us, stat right, question
1116
00:55:02.000 --> 00:55:05.079
marks like nah Art's coming. So Art his name was
1117
00:55:05.159 --> 00:55:08.199
Art Game and he slept the same room as us.
1118
00:55:08.480 --> 00:55:10.519
Weird night games.
1119
00:55:10.320 --> 00:55:13.519
Lost in that In that game, Kansas had twenty five
1120
00:55:13.599 --> 00:55:17.199
fouls and Bradley was eleven for twenty one from three,
1121
00:55:17.320 --> 00:55:20.800
which is fifty two percent, because of course they are
1122
00:55:21.159 --> 00:55:24.719
of course they were eleven for twenty one, so old.
1123
00:55:24.760 --> 00:55:27.559
Yeah. It was a rough go, but I don't.
1124
00:55:27.360 --> 00:55:29.960
Think that's gonna happen again. That game was late at night.
1125
00:55:30.039 --> 00:55:32.679
I'm seeing at eight thirty pm. And where was that
1126
00:55:32.760 --> 00:55:33.199
game cam?
1127
00:55:33.239 --> 00:55:33.679
Do you remember?
1128
00:55:33.960 --> 00:55:36.599
Wait a second, was it Bradley? I went to re Bucknell,
1129
00:55:36.960 --> 00:55:39.079
I went to one of them. I think it was Bradley.
1130
00:55:39.280 --> 00:55:40.599
It was in Detroit if.
1131
00:55:40.519 --> 00:55:43.400
It was if yeah, yeah, it's Auburn Hills it was.
1132
00:55:44.000 --> 00:55:46.239
Yeah, so he was yeah because it was at the palace. Yeah,
1133
00:55:46.360 --> 00:55:47.559
palace is no longer there by the.
1134
00:55:47.559 --> 00:55:52.559
Way, and also no longer there is cal Baptist on
1135
00:55:52.679 --> 00:55:54.760
Saturday morning. You hear here first. I think this is
1136
00:55:54.800 --> 00:55:56.760
a great draw for Kansas. I won't be as much
1137
00:55:56.760 --> 00:56:00.639
of a homer in future episodes. Kansas minus twelve was
1138
00:56:00.679 --> 00:56:04.000
the starting line. It very quickly went to fifteen, like
1139
00:56:04.280 --> 00:56:07.760
extremely fast. People have been betting on the Kansas side.
1140
00:56:07.880 --> 00:56:09.559
I think they win. I think they cover. I think
1141
00:56:09.599 --> 00:56:13.519
they coast. Do you think that anybody in the cal
1142
00:56:13.639 --> 00:56:16.159
Baptist League era is gonna be able to defend Darren
1143
00:56:16.159 --> 00:56:20.920
Peterson No Jayhawks seventy nine, cal Baptist fifty four.
1144
00:56:23.679 --> 00:56:26.800
Yeah. I don't see this game being particularly competitive. Like
1145
00:56:26.880 --> 00:56:29.360
most NCAA tournament games. I think, you know, you'll have
1146
00:56:29.400 --> 00:56:32.559
that one moment with like eleven minutes left in the
1147
00:56:32.559 --> 00:56:34.360
first half, we're like, why is this only a five
1148
00:56:34.440 --> 00:56:37.400
point game? And then I think Kansas is gonna just
1149
00:56:37.440 --> 00:56:39.639
annihilate him from then on or something like that. Give
1150
00:56:39.639 --> 00:56:42.440
me the Jayhawks eighty six to sixty five. This is
1151
00:56:42.480 --> 00:56:43.039
not close.
1152
00:56:44.679 --> 00:56:46.559
I can tell you as exactly how this is gonna go.
1153
00:56:46.679 --> 00:56:48.719
It'll be about ten minutes left in the first half.
1154
00:56:48.719 --> 00:56:50.559
It's gonna be about a three point game. Half of
1155
00:56:50.639 --> 00:56:52.559
Kansas twitter is gonna be like yep, told you guys,
1156
00:56:52.599 --> 00:56:54.280
we're losing the first game. Then the rest is gonna
1157
00:56:54.280 --> 00:56:56.079
be like, it's gonna be fine. It will be fine.
1158
00:56:56.159 --> 00:57:00.480
Kansas wins seventy four cal Baptists fifty eight boring game. Uh,
1159
00:57:01.000 --> 00:57:03.320
and then they well, we'll see what happens after that.
1160
00:57:04.519 --> 00:57:06.280
If you want to know who we think they're gonna play,
1161
00:57:06.440 --> 00:57:08.039
he'll stay tuned for the next show. So here's what
1162
00:57:08.039 --> 00:57:10.400
we're gonna do. We're going to wrap this show, but
1163
00:57:10.440 --> 00:57:13.480
we're gonna keep our recording going so I can just
1164
00:57:13.519 --> 00:57:17.239
have one audio file. So don't you push that stop button,
1165
00:57:17.599 --> 00:57:20.639
because well you're gonna hear the next half of what
1166
00:57:20.679 --> 00:57:24.280
we record right after. Just wait twenty four hours. This
1167
00:57:24.360 --> 00:57:25.519
is IP on r CV.
1168
00:57:25.639 --> 00:57:31.440
I'm Ryan and Andrew, I'm Landing Fields, I'm Cam.
1169
00:57:31.519 --> 00:57:33.519
All right, you guys are gonna you guys, it's gonna
1170
00:57:33.679 --> 00:57:36.679
blow your minds. Five hundred and thirty shows, Cam and
1171
00:57:36.760 --> 00:57:39.880
land and have prepared me for my editing prowess that's
1172
00:57:39.920 --> 00:57:40.880
about to take place.
1173
00:57:43.000 --> 00:57:45.920
Yeah, it's gonna in your ability to cut an audio
1174
00:57:45.960 --> 00:57:46.639
