00:00Why don't we start with this last four in, last four out stuff.

00:05And of course, the last four teams that are in the tournament, we have discussed a little

00:09bit.

00:10North Carolina, who's going to play the Dutch Oven and San Diego State in one of the play-in

00:16games.

00:17And then Texas and Xavier, who are in the other.

00:20Of course, North Carolina is the team that everybody has the biggest problem with because

00:25they were one and 12 in quad one games this year.

00:29Their athletic director, Bubba Cunningham, was on the chair of the committee, and it's

00:33now come out today that when they make the tournament, he gets an extra 110 grand in

00:39his paycheck when that happens.

00:41You gave off all the metrics before.

00:44West Virginia has ridiculous amounts of quad one wins, especially some key ones on the

00:49road.

00:50I personally think Indiana had a better, and I was with you, I don't think Indiana deserved

00:53to be in.

00:54But I thought they had a better resume than North Carolina did going into this weekend.

01:01That's not the team that I thought would bump Indiana from being in the big dance.

01:06But we know how these things go, and sometimes there's more to it than just wins and losses.

01:12There's other things at play.

01:14Well, obviously, there's other things at play.

01:19Corruption in the highest order is what's in play.

01:23Let me tell you something.

01:24I don't care what anybody thinks, and I know they look good in a couple games, but Texas

01:33with 15 losses gets in.

01:35I mean, what is next, 20 lost teams?

01:39What is next?

01:40How can you lose 15 games and get into the NCAA tournament?

01:46How is that possible?

01:47I'm sitting here admitting.

01:50I'm like, Indiana was 19 and 12, whatever it was, and I said, they don't deserve to

01:55be in.

01:56And yet, we're allowing 15 lost teams in because they play in the SEC.

02:03You know, that's some serious bullshack, is what it is.

02:07It's absolute bullshack.

02:08And the North Carolina, I'm not going to keep repeating myself.

02:12They shouldn't be in the tournament.

02:14And they are.

02:15So, you know what's going to happen.

02:17They're going to win.

02:18They're going to win tomorrow against San Diego State.

02:21And you know, I'm not going to be surprised at all if Texas wins.

02:27And you know, these other, the thing that gets me is how, you know, and I wrote this

02:32on, I told you, I wrote this on X.

02:35They have screwed up Indiana basketball so bad, they paid the football coach $8 million.

02:41That's how bad, $8 million a year for Cignetti.

02:45Meanwhile, they can't hire a basketball coach to save their ass that's ever going to make

02:49a matter again since Bob Knight won three national championships and the only undefeated

02:53season in college basketball history, 32-0 in 1976.

02:58They are no longer a blue blood.

03:00They no longer matter.

03:02And they have ruined Indiana basketball.

03:05They really have.

03:06And then what really gets me is that they stick their nose up to the NIT and any other

03:11tournament that wants them.

03:13Whereas like I come from the school of thought of, you know, I'm a baller.

03:18I want to play ball.

03:19I'm on that team.

03:20I want to go play in the NIT or I want to go play in the tournament in Vegas, the crown

03:26with the rest of the big 10 teams that are going there.

03:29Like I want to go play ball, but, but Indiana turns their nose up to all these tournaments

03:34every time.

03:35If they don't get in the NCAAs, shut it down.

03:38Their season's over.

03:39They just pack it in.

03:40And I think that's bullshack.

03:43I guarantee you, everything I said about that administration and athletic department, I

03:49said, they, these morons have ruined Indiana basketball.

03:53Bob Knight is turning in his grave at what they have done to Indiana basketball.

04:00It's embarrassing now.

04:02Are they really?

04:03I have to say this because I'm a jerk.

04:05You're really, you're going to hire the Drake coach?

04:10That's it?

04:11You know what?

04:12What is next?

04:13You might as well hire me.

04:14I could coach him on a bottle of rum.

04:17Like what is happening here that, and now what did I hear today?

04:21Mick Cronin's a favorite for the Villanova job, but Indiana doesn't want him.

04:25Wow.

04:26Oh my God.

04:27Don't get me started.

04:29Like I can't even, I listen, I'm going to, I'm going to take my Indiana sweatshirt out

04:33in the backyard and burn it.

04:36I'm glad my son didn't transfer to Indiana.

04:38My daughter, you know what she said?

04:39I said, where are you going to school?

04:40And she goes, I wouldn't go to that hillbilly school if you paid me, she called it a hillbilly

04:45school.

04:46And let me tell you something, uh, West Virginia, they know about hillbillies too.
