00:00i'll take your word for it all right so i i want to bring something up okay because we talk
00:05about
00:05the tournament and the first four have you seen what um and it's probably going to happen
00:11unfortunately have you seen that the whole preview for what the expanded tournament would look like
00:18no i haven't because i refuse to believe it's going to happen well you're going to live in
00:23this world now with me are you ready this was the proposed 76 team tournament and this
00:32is what it would look like and i want to know and i don't expect to get calls on this
00:38i think most
00:38people will just agree this is this is an armpit of an idea but from kenny you corporate david
00:46this is what the and i firmly believe this will be the tournament this is going to happen
00:52why because greed is killing sports actively you would have the following as at large play-ins
01:02are you ready to see some of the crap that you'd have to watch now you'd have the two that
01:09are
01:09already scheduled texas and nc state to be on that 11 line that's already in you have smu miami ohio
01:18same thing the that's your first four here are the other four matchups for the at large play
01:25on the 13 line you'd have arizona state from the big 12 against cal from the acc aka pac-12
01:35basketball
01:36on the arizona state no coach gotcha right on the 13 line on the 12 line you'd have okey state
01:43and
01:44virginia tech on the 12 line you'd have indiana and oklahoma and on the 11 line you'd have auburn
01:51and sdsu then the following would be on the automatic qualifier play-ins you'd have the already
02:01scheduled pairing i just want to be accurate with this okay lehigh and prairie view that's already
02:07scheduled howard and umbc already scheduled when and by the way i'm not slandering those schools
02:14these games are unwatchable there's always two play-ins you care about and then there's like the
02:19welfare class then you'd get these four games nobody asked for queens versus liu on the 16 line
02:29firman versus siena my hometown school on the 16 line the paladins they are what the saints
02:37firman no firman's the paladins yeah okay i'm just trying to channel my inner villainy you're fine
02:43you're fine queens is the royals okay uh but siena on the 16 line the 15 line kennesaw state
02:51versus right state and idaho versus tennessee state all of that crap just to get where we are
03:00now how is that honestly see the direction this is going here's the problem with that because you
03:07were told we're doing this so that we can allow for the you know for the the group of fives
03:15or
03:15whatever you call them the automatic qualifier conferences to get more than just one team in
03:21but what you read to me are all the bottom feeders from the power four conference indiana does not
03:27belong in this tournament they had an opportunity just like ohio state ohio state won games indiana
03:34lost games so you're not there arizona state so bad you fired your coach and pretty much said
03:40guys go wherever you want just don't worry about being here in sunny arizona so no you're expanding it
03:48for the same reason that i thought you were expanding it you're expanding it to put in more
03:52bad teams from good conferences just so they can play extra games you're not opening this up saying
03:59we're going to make sure that it won't be a one-bid conference anymore we'll allow you to get a
04:04second
04:04team in so therefore hey good miami of ohio you lost your game don't worry about it you're still in
04:12and we're going to also take your conference championship your conference winner none of those
04:17none of that's appealing but it's you know it's going to happen it is and that's why i just there's
04:22no point to it because you just keep lowering the bar and lowering the bar to now you're going to
04:29have
04:29teams that are 500 it's like the bowl games you're 500 yeah you're in the tournament what i would
04:34comp it to is the inevitable that college football will expand past 16 i mean they're they're just going
04:41to do this until there's no juice in the orange and no one's trying to watch a pair of eight
04:47and
04:47four football teams square off but that's that's where it's headed so i just wanted to share that
04:51with you because no no that that's just totally unnecessary it's not needed and it was everything
04:57that they promised it would not be right we're here for the little guy we're expanding for the
05:02little guy speaking of promises fix the damn roads okay uh corporate david on the text
05:08communications what's your read on a what i just laid out but b what do people have to say about
05:13it well it's disgusting first of all that that is not necessary wearing company issued attire on a
05:19monday or sure that as well um but rico you're right you're exactly right it was never going to be
05:27about
05:28the little guy never going to be about the little guy oh you know we're going to get you know
05:32queens in
05:34a little bit you know no it was all about getting indiana and auburn on that list does not deserve
05:41oh there's gonna be there's gonna be about three minutes later where i launch bruce pearl that sweating
05:48idiot out of a cannon his performance on the selection sunday show was every bit bad as it was
05:54compromised we'll get to that later carry on yeah we don't need that at all ticket tech says uh but
06:02what
06:02the plan is bishop sycamore right gideon perfect that's what all that sounds like absolute perfection
06:08let's find a way to get de paul into the tourney while we're at it uh someone says i was
06:14confused
06:15by all of it because it doesn't need to happen thank you don't need the expansion it's almost like a
06:2012
06:20team playoff either stay at eight or go to 16 but here we are at 12 and you know what
06:25they're going
06:25to do next 14 test the market conditions make sure they can keep crushing the rights phase with no eye
06:34on what it means for the sport you know you know what's funny about it though is between the three
06:39of you you guys are all varying range from hardcore to big fans of the sport and a guy like
06:44me who's
06:45on the fringe it barely appeals to the three of you how are you supposed to rope a guy like
06:50me into this
06:51you can't you can't you know what the playing games are they're the games that if you're at the
06:55bar with your friends you know all of a sudden you may place a bet on it and you just
07:02say you know
07:02what arm to go for this game and a lot of times they end up being entertaining but you know
07:08neither
07:08one of these teams have a shot at anything
07:16well you say kenny at the bar we were just giving you some of the audio all right all right
07:21we'll get to some of the people david text communications please
07:26all this sounds like to me is one extra game for the cinderellas to have to play making them
07:32more worn out before we actually get to the real games which means blow out but your problem is this
07:38we are already letting in teams that are fringy right we did the first four and i'm fine because
07:44when we talked about playing games 20 years ago it was the last four teams out versus the last four
07:52teams in square them off cool instead what they did is we got a couple of those teams and then
07:59you
07:59pitted a couple you basically created bum fights you took homeless team a first homeless team b and
08:06said all right y'all go over here and play great use of the term bum fight i'm here for
08:10it works
08:10because that's what it is i don't know which team to pick so how about you guys fight it out
08:15and you
08:16watch it the games are unwatchable it jumps off the screen how bad these teams are in comparison to
08:23their high division one the only ones that are entertaining mike are the automatic qualifiers
08:28because this is it for them yes they have to win but yeah when you see you know this like
08:34these two
08:35teams like they were bad in their conference why do i need to see them square off against each other
08:40now can you imagine cal versus arizona state as you said asu fired hurley cal basketball i i don't
08:51know is jalen brown still there like who cares yeah let's put these mid teams here oklahoma and indiana
08:58you know what at what point was indiana a tournament team this year they were never never like three weeks
09:03ago they were on the fringe and then they fell apart no but then they'll say hey what about vcu
09:09what about ucla what about nc state they played in the play-in games and they made it to the
09:16final
09:16four that's what they're going to trumpet oh you say it's meaningless right those two teams did it
09:22there there has to be a line of qualifications to get in when you are out here and you're barely
09:28500
09:29the and i i know i i don't want to obsess on it the idea that bruce pearl was allowed
09:35to schlep
09:35for his former school where his son coaches and tried to make a case that with 16 losses
09:42they somehow deserve to be do me a favor you can't be on a broadcast tonight all right because
09:47that started off i thought it was a joke no i'm like wait no man is serious that's worse than
09:52his
09:53deodorant back when he coached okay i would sweat through his shirt and lay up line
09:56all right
09:57all right
