Hour 2 – ABS is Here, Darius Rucker

00:00:00
Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox Sports Radio.

00:00:04
Speaker 2: It is our two on this Wednesday, on the day we did not get we did not get nominated. Welcome to the program. It's our two on this Wednesday, on the day we did not get nominated for a Sports Emmy.

00:00:19
Speaker 3: But we move on.

00:00:20
Speaker 2: Every day is the Super Bowl and Todd has been lifting up everybody's spirits. And thank you Todd for being a better person than me today.

00:00:29
Speaker 4: Because once again, if you're not nominated, you can't lose again.

00:00:32
Speaker 2: So that's how we have to live on, all right. Darius Rucker, who wins awards, he will join us coming up. He's part of our bracket challenge. We'll check in with the Carolina tar Heels and mel Kiper Draft expert will stop by as well. Good morning if you're watching on Peacock and we also are on NBC Sports Network as well. Good morning to our radio affiliates around the country, numbering four hundred cities that carried this previously award nominated Satan poll. Question for the first hour, and what are we going to go with in hour two? We got one here from Paul.

00:01:06
Speaker 5: For the first hour, we didn't really get into this topic, but I know it's one that he's pretty hot on, which is closer to competitive golf TGL or l IV's going with the letters there because it's fun.

00:01:18
Speaker 2: M Well live is more competitive than TGL. It is, yes, but it's actually outside. They're actually playing golf. They're not hitting it into a screen. By the way, it's kind of disingenuous. The headline writers talking about Tiger Woods returns to competitive golf. Okay, competitive, that's a lie. Is he in the Houston Open? No, he was playing in TGL. He had nine swings last night. And it's on a simulator. So Tiger returned to competitive golf, just like because I play on the simulator here.

00:02:03
Speaker 3: That I mean, what are we doing? It's not competitive golf.

00:02:09
Speaker 2: When I see Tiger have to walk four days, now, that's competitive golf, not this Now. Is Tiger gearing up to play in the Masters, Okay, but that's not competitive golf. Last night, that's where you get with your buddies, have a few beers and you hit.

00:02:27
Speaker 3: You know, it's like top golf. It's not competitive.

00:02:33
Speaker 2: But it'd be like if Patrick Mahomes you saw the headline returns to competitive play and Basically, he was out throwing the football in the you know, in the backyard with somebody. He's not returning to competitive play. Tiger is not returning to competitive play. Maybe he will, but last night was not competitive play. It was a disingenuous headline there. And maybe he's gonna play in the Masters, but Tiger's part of the ownership here. Okay, this is about Tiger with his investment. Him and Rory Serena is there. You know, they were trying to Jason Kelsey. They're trying to dress it up a little bit.

00:03:15
Speaker 3: I get it.

00:03:16
Speaker 2: It's well produced, it's different, but it's not competitive golf. And when I saw that headline, I thought, oh, he's going to be playing at Augusta. All of a sudden, somebody sends me a picture Tiger's plane was in Augusta recently. Here is Tiger Woods talking about competitive golf.

00:03:37
Speaker 6: As I said, I've been trying.

00:03:39
Speaker 7: It's just this body is it doesn't recover like it was when I was twenty four twenty five. Doesn't mean I'm not trying. I've been trying for a while, and I've had a couple of bad injuries here the past year that's had to fight through and it's taken some time, but I keep trying.

00:03:56
Speaker 6: I want to play. I've loved the tournament.

00:03:59
Speaker 7: I love being there when I was nineteen years old, so it's spent a lot to me and my family and over the years. And I'm going to be there either way. With the loop that's going up there as well as you know, the champion's dinner.

00:04:14
Speaker 8: So I think that decision that will have to come right down on the Friday before.

00:04:18
Speaker 9: I don't know.

00:04:18
Speaker 6: Well, we'll see how it goes.

00:04:20
Speaker 9: You know.

00:04:21
Speaker 7: I'll be practicing playing at home this week and keep trying to make progress.

00:04:26
Speaker 2: I hope he plays. It's better for the tournament. By the way, he looks like a defensive back. I mean, he is jacked, but if he can play, awesome. But here's the key.

00:04:37
Speaker 3: You gotta walk. They don't give you a cart.

00:04:40
Speaker 2: That's what I want to know when I see Tiger walking, and by the way, that's not.

00:04:43
Speaker 3: An easy course to walk.

00:04:44
Speaker 2: If I see him walking and Augusta, he's back at competitive golf, not something on TGL last night.

00:04:52
Speaker 10: Yes he was using a cart last night, Yes I saw it. I didn't see the cart last eight feet at the time.

00:04:58
Speaker 2: Eight seven seven three, Tyler sitting by. He'll take your phone calls. North Carolina needs a new basketball coach. Hubert Davis was fired. I'm looking at some of these gambling sites, and the odds on favor to be the next head coach is Billy Donovan, tj Otzolberger, Tommy Lloyd, Nate Oates, Brad Stevens, Dusty Mayett Michigan. By the way, Dusty may has done an incredible job at Michigan the last two years. Wow, Sean May is in there, Todd Golden, Mark Few, Scott Drew, Danny Hurley long odds there. Rick Bettino is also on the list. These are silly King Rice is on there. Former North Carolina Gray Jeff lebo is also on there. But this is what I have just to let you know from my college basketball source who said, I don't imagine Billy Donovan is in play at all, nor Brad Stevens, although they could probably get an audience with Brad. I tend to think Tommy Lloyd at Arizona Josh Shirts at Saint Louis make the most sense. He also mentioned Todd Golden, Nate Oates, and also he says Michael Malone feels like a super creative and capable option there. But he's the former Nuggets head coach who's now studio analyst for the Mothership.

00:06:33
Speaker 3: Yes, Paul, just.

00:06:34
Speaker 10: Report just came out from Matt Norlander of CBS Sports. Brad Stevens already told UNCE he's not in consideration, not engage.

00:06:41
Speaker 2: Yeah, he got a good gig going on with Boston. But you know, you start to think about North Carolina and what's acceptable. And I mentioned, you know the timing of this. If I go back to when Caleb Wilson got hurt in practice, they're twenty four and six, so that's March fifth. He is coming back that weekend against Duke. He suffers his season ending injury that afternoon in practice. Here is a guy who's gonna be probably a top five pick. North Carolina didn't win another game the rest of the year. Nineteen days later, Hubert Davis is fired. This is different. You would think that you go to a national title game a couple of years ago, you're winning twenty twenty four games.

00:07:26
Speaker 3: That's not enough.

00:07:28
Speaker 2: This isn't Dean Smith, it's not Roy Williams, not even Bill Guthridge. Everybody's got money, and not everybody who's in love with Carolina Blue. Plus you're gonna be measured eight miles down the road. With Duke, It's like, why is Shier getting all these great recruits and we're not Why is he still playing in the national and the NCAA Championship and maybe the favorites are co favorites to win the title and look at us. But I got to be fair to Hubert. Now, I didn't. I didn't know the fit. I've been told since then that it was an awkward fit for Hubert Davis. He was a very good assistant coach. That's different when you're the head coach. But if their best player is playing, now, you shouldn't blow a nineteen point lead, Okay, first and foremost, second half nineteen point lead? Is that enough to get you fired? Well, it's not one thing that gets you fired. It's a couple of things. And then all of a sudden, you got your collectives, you got your boosters, and then that's when you start to hey, wait a minute here, we don't want him back. Hey, I don't know if I'm going to be ponying up money for this program. If I mean, this is how these things happen, and Hubert Davis is on the outside looking in there at Carolina, it can happen that quickly. Loyalty, that's just a word and it's open to interpretation. I still think you know that it's Carolina basketball. But I'm living in a different era. I'm from a different age today, Carolina.

00:09:09
Speaker 9: Eh.

00:09:10
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, Pauling.

00:09:13
Speaker 10: One thing I'd love to know about Carolina Basketball is how engaged or not engaged is Michael Jordan over the past decade. Have they offered him some type of role, ceremonial or real and would he ever be interested?

00:09:28
Speaker 2: Okay, he's involved in NASCAR, fishing, golf. I don't know if Mike wants to be involved in meetings now I would ask him, Hey, can we use you as a closer? Hey, we got this guy. It's between us in Duke or us in Michigan. Can we get you on a phone call. I can't see Mike getting involved in the day to day. But you know, once again, I don't know what his motivation is for his alma mater. He does have, you know, the jumpman gear that you know the school wears, but I don't know. I don't know what his motivation is if there is motivation there to help his alma mater, because I don't know if Magic Johnson does anything at Michigan State. I mean, I don't Magic's got unlimited funds. I mean, I gotta be fair to everybody.

00:10:24
Speaker 9: Else.

00:10:24
Speaker 2: Is Christian Latner or Grant Hill involved in duke and if so, are they giving money? Do they get on phone calls like those? I'd be curious about that. I think it's easy to single out Mike and say, come on, Mike, help out your alma mater. Mike showed up for that first Belichick football game. I don't think he's been back on campus. I don't even think he stayed to halftime. It's like, uh, can they not wear my jumpman gear?

00:10:52
Speaker 9: Yes?

00:10:53
Speaker 10: I know this is obvious, but wouldn't you pull out all the stops to engage Jordan and use his aura beyond just the shoes he gives? Yeah, with parents with recruits. I know the dollar signs are everything, but he seems to be above that.

00:11:10
Speaker 2: He loves what he loves, plays thirty six holes a day, he loves fishing, competitive fishing, and his NASCAR team has been unbelievable. I don't know if Mike misses basketball, maybe the next time Mike Tarico sits down with Michael he can ask him about being involved in North Carolina basketball. That might be next year.

00:11:31
Speaker 4: Yes, Marvin, I think Michael Jordan misses playing basketball.

00:11:35
Speaker 3: I don't think he wants to be around it per se, day to day.

00:11:39
Speaker 9: Yeah.

00:11:39
Speaker 3: I agree.

00:11:40
Speaker 2: Uh so that's the pole question for the second hour of the program, Seeton.

00:11:46
Speaker 5: Yeah, we got two up there right now. We have one from Paul and we have one from uh.

00:11:53
Speaker 3: Marvin.

00:11:54
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, okay, eight seven seven three DP show. By the way, the automated balls and strikes is coming. It's happening now. You got Opening Night, you got the Yankees against the Giants. Major leaguers have been weighed and measured, and this year it's far more serious and teams are mandated by Major League Baseball to take measurements between ten am and new Local time on their appointed day. So no shoes, no hat, knees exposed, heels together, back against the wall, no slouching. They are measuring for strike zones. They are measuring for automated balls and strikes. Gavin Lux He was listed at six' to two last. Season his official listing is five to eleven a. Shot Bo naylor went from being listed at six feet to five. Nine now baseball is saying. Hey with the introduction of THE abs, system using the player's height to determine the strike, Zone baseball is doing formal measurements of every baseball. Player it's coming on the, Way baseball coming up, tonight The giants and The. Yankees all, right a couple of phone calls here if you're just joining. Us we were not nominated for A Sports emmy this, year so the first time in six. Years BUT i would like to congratulate all the shows that were nominated in our. Category congratulations and keep this in. Mind you're all winners no matter what happens that night that they hand out that lovely. Trophy you're all winners in my. Book zach And.

00:13:39
Speaker 3: Knoxville, Hi, zach what's on your mind? TODAY?

00:13:43
Speaker 9: Adp thanks for taking my.

00:13:44
Speaker 11: Call Would mario's editing of that video be a metaphorical? Airball and would you say That Nick wright was there to catch the rebound and put it back?

00:13:53
Speaker 2: In, wow that's a call back THE.

00:13:58
Speaker 3: Auaa They're, Mario.

00:14:03
Speaker 2: So mario doesn't even have to take a shot for his team to, win and he stares At fritzy who's trying to play, defense And mario shoots an air ball and the put back they lost the game that would have put them in the.

00:14:18
Speaker 3: Championship seaton was the captain of.

00:14:21
Speaker 5: That mario arguably one of the, Worst oh my god sports moments for me in my entire.

00:14:28
Speaker 2: Life when you walked off the, floor like that's when it, mattered like you could see like you're you're gonna go and play in the championship. Game, yeah And mario just has to hold onto the ball five seconds to, go four seconds to, go stares At, fritzy shoots an airball TWO a, days had to put back and you.

00:14:45
Speaker 5: Lost yeah see, yeah and it's too bad because LIKE i could have just held onto the ball and not passed. It that's, True but that, man did that feel like so? Cheap you, know like it felt like a man that's not the spirit of the, game like play until the whistle kind of. THING i got to, ADMIT i just didn't think WHEN i swung a pass over To mario that he was going to airball At tyler was going to play no defense in TWO a.

00:15:07
Speaker 3: Days it was going to have a putback to. Win, Yeah.

00:15:09
Speaker 10: Paulie the irony Is mario is the director of the show that's on live right now and has not shown that clip on the show.

00:15:15
Speaker 5: That you would think the director would show that his airball and any caliber Direct, yes would show, that yes. Clip, yes as a. Journalist as a, journalist he just gave you the. Matumbo, no, no, no.

00:15:29
Speaker 2: He's an adjunct. Professor by the, way was the Worst, yes, Yes, tom did.

00:15:33
Speaker 11: We have a look at prop bets where he needed one more?

00:15:35
Speaker 8: Basket And i'm starting to think with in this world that we live, in maybe there was a reason why he.

00:15:40
Speaker 9: SHOTS i didn't even care about winning or.

00:15:41
Speaker 5: Losing it Was polly market a. Thing, Yet, yeah he just swung. That, yeah maybe it was your, Defense.

00:15:47
Speaker 9: Todd, NO i KNOW i scared him for, sure that's the reason why he.

00:15:50
Speaker 3: Shot, yeah you'll never admit that that lockdown.

00:15:53
Speaker 2: Defender you were out there my, wristbands, right You you Were Victor Winben yama that.

00:15:58
Speaker 3: Day, yes BUT i couldn't say it in the.

00:16:01
Speaker 5: Moment BUT i don't know how many years it's been, now six seven, years whatever it's. Been that rule about airballs can just go back up as. Garbage that's the worst rule in. Sports but that's, streetball, man and this shouldn't. Be no it, is that's the way it, is not WHEN i grew up the way it. Is you had to take it back out past the foul line like real. Men, no only if it hit the, rim you have to go back out foul line. Extended, nope, airball put back all. Soft that's WHEN i realized how much you guys. Cared it was terrible, basketball but it. Mattered in, fact that's the, motto it's terrible, basketball but it matters What TODD i was so.

00:16:41

Braves AND i remember him, saying, MAN i love The reds Because i'm From. CINCINNATI i, said how do you love The? Reds he, GOES i Love Barry. Larkin i'm, like all, right, sure let's see a couple of phone calls in here before we take. Right curtis In, Illinois, Hi, Curtis welcome.

00:30:03
Speaker 3: Back, MORNING. Dp just a couple things.

00:30:08
Speaker 14: Here just first, off, quickly To polly's point about Having jordan be so involved With carolina and recruiting and just using his, NAME i don't know that he pulled any more that he used. To for somebody that's like my age at forty, three that would be the greatest thing in the. World but to an eighteen year old kid coming out of high school who might not ever seen him, play you, know If kobe was still, around he'd probably be have that kind of. Pull and, SECONDLY i THINK i know why you're not getting nominated for The Sports. Emmy and it's a little akin to the forty nine ers being next to that electrical substation and having all those like EMPs or whatever calls all the. Injuries during the live look in when you were placing Your Sports emmy in front Of, MARIO i noticed he just coincidentally seems to be sitting right in front of your electrical panels with all of your circuit. Breakers So i'm, thinking and maybe, that's you, know emitting some EMPs and scrambling in his brain and he's not putting together the best.

00:31:05
Speaker 2: Video you know, What i'll get some of my best people on THAT i won't roll.

00:31:09
Speaker 5: Out, Yeah AND i don't know if it was it could be Affecting mary's, brain and whether if it's affecting our phone calls.

00:31:17
Speaker 3: Of the people calling in or the, connection.

00:31:20
Speaker 5: Yeah the, Connection oh.

00:31:22
Speaker 9: Maybe.

00:31:22
Speaker 5: Yeah, ALSO i think that's kind of a hot take too that college basketball players currently might not know Who Michael jordan.

00:31:28
Speaker 3: Is, yeah but your parents would.

00:31:33
Speaker 5: You know who plays basketball right now that doesn't Know Michael jordan is the thing that those kids That curtis is talking about probably the one thing they wanted For christmas every year for their first eighteen years of their life was a new pair Of.

00:31:45
Speaker 2: Jordan's well you know him as it's Like John. Madden people didn't Know John madden was a Football.

00:31:52
Speaker 5: Michael you're going on a recruiting trip and you visit a dozen schools and in one of, Them Michael jordan walks out and you're just, like who is? This oh that's the guy that was Like kobe. What oh you Were kobe before. This oh that's the guy that was Like kobe but before.

Shams they're moving forward with expansion in THE, nba and it's gonna the cost for an expansion team in THE nba between seven and ten billion. Dollars they're taking steps, here but seven to ten billion. DOLLARS i Know lebron said that he was not interested in, expansion AND i had heard something to the. Contrary he's involved in The fenway. Group, obviously they own The Red, sox they Owned Liverpool, soccer AND i was told that The fenway group was going to be bidding or thought to be bidding on The vegas. Team, maybe LIKE i can't imagine what Else lebron's going to want to, do and that seems to be the natural. PROGRESSION i thought he And Steph curry might you, know THE nba would encourage them to get involved With vegas Because, seattle they're not affiliated With, seattle But vegas is a new, franchise AND i thought that maybe you could Get lebron And steph in, that but you would have to be, RETIRED i would think by the, time because you can't Be, Hey i'm going into play against my. Team i'm On Golden. State i'm going to go Play vegas. Here BUT i thought that maybe that was natural For lebron to be part of that ownership.
