00:00Let's go over to college basketball here.
00:02So far, your takeaways in the early part of the season, they've been what?
00:07Well, listen, when you think about it, it's early on,
00:10and you want to look at teams that have the chemistry, right,
00:13that have been around together.
00:15You know, I thought Florida looked really good in their win over Miami.
00:18I think John Lucas does a great job with their Hurricanes,
00:20but I think that team with Todd Golden is one of the best.
00:23Dukes look good so far.
00:24Connecticut, I talked about it.
00:27Baby Shaq, baby Shaq, baby Shaq.
00:29Najee Hines, they've got a big matchup tomorrow in Boston versus Michigan,
00:34which will be a great matchup.
00:36But the team, I mean, did you see what Brad Underwood did on their opening night?
00:41Winning by, what, 75 points?
00:45Let me explain something to people.
00:47In men's college basketball, that's nuts.
00:50You see it in women's.
00:52The athletic system is so close on the men's side, you don't get 50-point blowouts.
00:57That was 75, 75-point blowout.
01:01Brad Underwood, you want to talk about times are great again like Philadelphia?
01:06Man, since the Lou Henson days, I'm telling you, folks,
01:10Illinois is going to be a play to win the national championship.
01:15You tell me, what makes Calipari the coach that he is?
01:20Everywhere he goes, whether it's UMass, it's Memphis, it's Kentucky, any place he goes,
01:26J.Y., this guy just is a program builder.
01:29He's a culture builder.
01:31What makes him such a great coach?
01:34He is a hell of a recruiter.
01:38And when you can turn around and kids, you say, hey, I want to go to the league.
01:44And you start saying, Maxie, Booker, SGA, Bam, Cat, AD, you start rattling off those names,
01:53it makes my kids say, oh, maybe I want to go play for Cal.
01:57He can recruit them.
01:59Boy, I'll tell you this, man.
02:00You want to make a guy a millionaire?
02:03You go play with John Calipari.
02:05That's for dang sure.
