00:00But let's take a look.
00:00Yesterday, Joe, Arkansas winning the SEC championship in the tournament,
00:0686-75 over Vanderbilt.
00:07Here's Coach Cal.
00:08The guy's building the dynasty already over there.
00:12Now, I've kind of been that way and done all right at every school I've been at.
00:17So you could say it's wrong or you can live with it.
00:21You could be peed off or peed on.
00:25I really don't care.
00:27And so this was for these guys.
00:32Can I tell them what I said in the pre-game?
00:36So I said, guys, it's another game.
00:40We're trying to get better.
00:42Let's see where we are.
00:45We were holding our seat and Nick Pringle in the back said,
00:53Bulls***.
00:54True.
00:55Well, this is for a championship.
00:58And I said, if that's what you need me to say, great, let's go to the championship.
01:02I mean, this is about them.
01:04I've done this so long.
01:06There's stuff you do you don't even know.
01:08And I said it the other day.
01:09I don't have a rearview mirror in my car.
01:13I look one way out that way.
01:16And so the stuff, I've been blessed.
01:19I've been blessed that their families let me coach them.
01:23The man can coach, Joe.
01:25The man can flat out coach.
01:27They win an SEC tournament championship.
01:29They're heading in as a red hot team.
01:30Acuff Jr., 30 and 11.
01:32He's been nothing sort of spectacular.
01:34We're not surprised that Coach Cal's already dominating here at Arkansas, are we?
01:39No.
01:40Well, when you have Acuff Jr. there, who's dropping, what, 30 points, three rebounds, 11 assists.
01:45The kid is maybe one of the more underrated.
01:49I mean, listen, with Peterson taking all the headlines, you got this kid co-oppede, obviously, in Arizona.
01:55But what Acuff Jr. has been doing is nothing short of crazy.
01:58And don't forget, Donnie, that was a brutal stretch for the SEC tournament.
02:02It kind of felt like maybe Vandy left it all out there to beat Florida.
02:07But it's just too much.
02:09I mean, both those teams, Donnie, Vandy included, are only going with seven-man rotations here.
02:14These kids are playing a lot of basketball and a lot of minutes.
02:17And we were wondering if they had anything left in the tank.
02:19The answer, they had plenty left in the tank here.
