00:00and also includes the information that was reported yesterday afternoon,
00:05which is that Mike Lombardi went to Saudi Arabia on a fundraising trip
00:09prior to the start of the season.
00:11He was away from the team in August and went to Saudi Arabia
00:14on an exploratory trip, according to the university.
00:18Explored taking money from Saudi Arabia.
00:22How do you think that ended, by the way?
00:23Do you think that ended with him going home saying,
00:24you know what, no, I don't think we'll take your money.
00:27Do you think that's how it ended?
00:28Or do you think he took the money?
00:31If you got any.
00:32If you're one of the highfalutins over there, why do we give you money?
00:37Why should we give you money?
00:38Because they'll give money to anything right now.
00:42At least you have the lived tournament.
00:44You get real golfers.
00:46You got a team that can't score a touchdown.
00:48That's your pay giving money to.
00:50They can't get out of their own way.
00:52Well, we know that now.
00:53We didn't know that in August.
00:54I know.
00:55That's true.
00:56Nobody knew that in August.
00:57So when they called, did they just hit, decline, decline, go to voicemail, voicemail?
01:03After the TCU game, probably.
01:05Yeah, I would think so.
01:06Check didn't clear.
01:07It bounced all of a sudden.
01:08Oh, that's weird.
01:10That to me is not all that interesting because I can't imagine that he went and did that
01:15without the permission of the university.
01:16I can't imagine that that wasn't sanctioned.
01:21And publicly, it looks like they did sanction it.
01:24Now, your thoughts on Saudi money and sports, that's a different conversation.
01:29But as far as being in trouble and losing the job at UNC, I don't know that that's going
01:33to impact things very much.
01:35Interesting, for sure.
01:36But I don't know that it directly relates to whether or not Bill is going to remain
01:39as the coach of UNC.
