WEBVTT

00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:01.840
<v Matt Houlihan>Quick little detour for all the viewers out here.

00:00:01.840 --> 00:00:03.279
<v Matt Houlihan>So Daniel and I we coached.

00:00:03.279 --> 00:00:07.599
<v Matt Houlihan>I was with Daniel on Staff of Safer for nine seasons as a volunteer when he was the assistant.

00:00:07.599 --> 00:00:09.039
<v Matt Houlihan>And we would room together.

00:00:09.039 --> 00:00:11.039
<v Matt Houlihan>And we nine seasons.

00:00:11.119 --> 00:00:11.759
<v Arielle Houlihan>That's a long time.

00:00:12.800 --> 00:00:12.960
<v Matt Houlihan>Yeah.

00:00:12.960 --> 00:00:13.519
<v Matt Houlihan>I didn't trap.

00:00:13.519 --> 00:00:13.919
<v Matt Houlihan>I didn't start.

00:00:15.519 --> 00:00:19.600
<v Arielle Houlihan>Yeah, I didn't start conspiracy theory number two.

00:00:25.359 --> 00:00:27.359
<v Matt Houlihan>Correlation is not causation.

00:00:28.559 --> 00:00:30.079
<v Chad Gordon>That's not how starting to work.

00:00:30.640 --> 00:00:32.880
<v Arielle Houlihan>No wonder Killen's crazy.

00:00:33.679 --> 00:00:36.799
<v Chad Gordon>You start in polite tune off the rails already, guys.

00:00:42.799 --> 00:00:44.000
<v Matt Houlihan>Hey, it's good to be back.

00:00:44.000 --> 00:00:45.359
<v Matt Houlihan>Episode two, season four.

00:00:45.359 --> 00:00:46.399
<v Matt Houlihan>We're calling this season four.

00:00:46.399 --> 00:00:52.479
<v Matt Houlihan>I officially decided when I posted this on YouTube last time, it was season four, episode one, so we're back, season four.

00:00:52.880 --> 00:00:53.280
<v Arielle Houlihan>Episode two.

00:00:53.280 --> 00:00:56.000
<v Arielle Houlihan>Matt, you're wearing a new hat.

00:00:56.240 --> 00:00:59.840
<v Matt Houlihan>And my actually, it's actually an old hat and old sweatpants and an old shirt.

00:01:00.159 --> 00:01:00.479
<v Arielle Houlihan>Never mind.

00:01:00.479 --> 00:01:00.880
<v Arielle Houlihan>Forget it.

00:01:00.880 --> 00:01:02.000
<v Arielle Houlihan>New segment.

00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:03.759
<v Daniel Rasay>But new mustache.

00:01:03.759 --> 00:01:05.599
<v Daniel Rasay>Did you buy that at my garage sale?

00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:10.640
<v Matt Houlihan>No, but you gave all of this to me once upon a time.

00:01:10.640 --> 00:01:12.239
<v Matt Houlihan>He stole it from you.

00:01:12.239 --> 00:01:12.959
<v Matt Houlihan>Yeah.

00:01:12.959 --> 00:01:15.439
<v Matt Houlihan>I have a life update for us.

00:01:15.439 --> 00:01:18.480
<v Matt Houlihan>I couldn't talk about life updates last week, but we can now.

00:01:18.480 --> 00:01:33.359
<v Matt Houlihan>For one season and one season only, I have been officially hired to replace one Spencer Wickens, one beloved Spencer Wickens for the remainder of the NCAA men's collegiate volleyball season at Stanford.

00:01:33.359 --> 00:01:36.239
<v Matt Houlihan>So I'm uh I'm a full-time employee now.

00:01:36.239 --> 00:01:42.959
<v Matt Houlihan>When I was with Daniel at Stanford for nine years before, I was the volunteer, just the lowly, lowly volunteer.

00:01:42.959 --> 00:01:46.239
<v Matt Houlihan>I was a slave to whatever Daniel, whatever Daniel asked for.

00:01:46.239 --> 00:01:49.280
<v Matt Houlihan>Um and now I'm filling in.

00:01:49.280 --> 00:01:53.359
<v Matt Houlihan>So uh yeah, that was the uh that's the genesis of what I've got going on.

00:01:53.359 --> 00:02:02.959
<v Matt Houlihan>And and you'll uh you'll hear some my my opinions will be less spicy as I am very biased as to who I want to win and succeed, and I want everyone else to fail.

00:02:03.120 --> 00:02:08.639
<v Arielle Houlihan>So what does this mean for you and your next three months?

00:02:08.639 --> 00:02:10.400
<v Arielle Houlihan>Is your content gonna change?

00:02:10.400 --> 00:02:12.639
<v Arielle Houlihan>Is your takes gonna change?

00:02:13.759 --> 00:02:15.919
<v Matt Houlihan>Uh content will change a little bit.

00:02:15.919 --> 00:02:21.439
<v Matt Houlihan>I I'm focusing specifically on coaching, but I want to keep sharing stories.

00:02:21.439 --> 00:02:23.680
<v Matt Houlihan>I think that's one of my favorite things to do.

00:02:23.680 --> 00:02:28.159
<v Matt Houlihan>Um still want to do some breakdowns, still want to give love to the men's volleyball world.

00:02:28.159 --> 00:02:38.479
<v Matt Houlihan>Um again, you'll know I'm very biased on on the things that I do come forward with, but uh yeah, I I think a lot of what I'm trying to focus on is this was a cool opportunity.

00:02:38.479 --> 00:02:48.319
<v Matt Houlihan>Uh John was kind enough to reach out to me when spent when he got news that Spencer was gonna be leaving for Minnesota for the women's job, which is a great opportunity for him, and we love you, Spencer.

00:02:48.319 --> 00:02:50.240
<v Matt Houlihan>Um he doesn't listen.

00:02:50.240 --> 00:02:52.800
<v Matt Houlihan>I know, but someone does and someone will send it to him.

00:02:52.800 --> 00:02:55.759
<v Matt Houlihan>So if that's you and you know Spencer, send him that little clip.

00:02:55.759 --> 00:03:06.319
<v Matt Houlihan>Uh yeah, it was just a it's such a unique opportunity to step in to a full-time role and jump in and coach at a highest level team.

00:03:06.319 --> 00:03:19.199
<v Matt Houlihan>I literally was driving to practice today, and I had the feeling I was like, I got to to to run some drills during practice yesterday, and it felt I love my 15 team, I love getting to coach at Beta Bay and do skills practices and work with all the little kids.

00:03:19.199 --> 00:03:24.159
<v Matt Houlihan>But there's this degree where you're like, I feel like I'm driving a Ferrari when I go to practice.

00:03:24.159 --> 00:03:41.360
<v Matt Houlihan>We're like, wow, these guys are they can they can institute exactly what I'm looking for right away, and they can see a lot of the things that we're trying to do, and they can physically go up and do these things at a level that you know we're just not not traditionally getting.

00:03:41.360 --> 00:03:43.280
<v Matt Houlihan>So it's it's very fun in that sense.

00:03:43.280 --> 00:03:48.000
<v Matt Houlihan>And my wife over here has been very kind and very supportive.

00:03:48.000 --> 00:03:52.800
<v Matt Houlihan>Uh my wife, my wife Chad Gordon, um co-host and wife.

00:03:53.680 --> 00:03:54.879
<v Daniel Rasay>A weird podcast.

00:03:55.199 --> 00:03:59.360
<v Matt Houlihan>Uh yeah, it gave me gave me a lot of sport and freedom to be able to go do it.

00:03:59.360 --> 00:04:10.800
<v Matt Houlihan>Our kids are at a young age where they're gonna come to games with us and do a lot of stuff still, uh, where I'm gonna miss some time with them after schools for practices, but get an opportunity to bring them along and and be in these moments.

00:04:10.800 --> 00:04:20.160
<v Matt Houlihan>Uh, I had a I had a the the final closing thought for me on this uh was I had this like childhood dream of being a college coach.

00:04:20.160 --> 00:04:28.160
<v Matt Houlihan>My grandpa was a college coach at Santa Clara for basketball, and then he was the athletic director there, and we grew up in the gym being around it, and it was just so cool.

00:04:28.160 --> 00:04:35.680
<v Matt Houlihan>He was like the mayor, and everyone knew him, respected him, and he is and was a fantastic coach.

00:04:35.680 --> 00:04:43.199
<v Matt Houlihan>Um, and so I always saw him in that moment and how cool it was for my family for him to be there and to be a part of it.

00:04:43.199 --> 00:04:48.720
<v Matt Houlihan>Uh, and I knew pretty quickly that I don't want to be a full-time college coach after doing volunteer for one year.

00:04:48.720 --> 00:05:05.759
<v Matt Houlihan>I love the job that I get to do, but to be in this environment where I get to step in for a three-month period and be to be hopefully useful and helpful to this team in a moment where they need it, and then gives John and the staff the flexibility to go and hire someone full-time afterwards.

00:05:05.759 --> 00:05:11.360
<v Matt Houlihan>It's a it's a unique environment that I felt like I could I could do some good and help.

00:05:11.360 --> 00:05:17.839
<v Matt Houlihan>And for me, it's uh there's a selfish desire to want to go do this and and have this opportunity and be a part of it.

00:05:17.839 --> 00:05:25.839
<v Matt Houlihan>Um, and hopefully there's a degree as well where the team can feel a lot of the support that I'm I'm trying to give them and the love I'm trying to give them because they deserve it.

00:05:25.839 --> 00:05:29.519
<v Matt Houlihan>Um that's the sentiment I shared with them on Monday when I got to talk to the team.

00:05:29.519 --> 00:05:36.800
<v Matt Houlihan>Um and hopefully they'll they'll learn to feel that continuously, um, even if I do a fifth-set breakdown of a different team at some point too.

00:05:37.600 --> 00:05:40.720
<v Daniel Rasay>What does John think of the live fifth-set breakdown?

00:05:41.040 --> 00:05:42.879
<v Arielle Houlihan>I'd like a reaction video from him.

00:05:43.120 --> 00:05:43.519
<v Matt Houlihan>Yeah.

00:05:43.519 --> 00:05:47.040
<v Matt Houlihan>Uh I actually I asked him, I was like, what do you I I asked him about?

00:05:47.040 --> 00:05:48.959
<v Matt Houlihan>Like, are you worried about my social media?

00:05:48.959 --> 00:05:50.480
<v Matt Houlihan>Like, would you like me to stop posting?

00:05:50.480 --> 00:05:57.120
<v Matt Houlihan>He was like, I'm not concerned about like that that does not concern me.

00:05:57.120 --> 00:06:00.319
<v Matt Houlihan>Doesn't concern me until it becomes a concern to me.

00:06:00.319 --> 00:06:00.560
<v Matt Houlihan>No.

00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:04.399
<v Matt Houlihan>Um no, he was like, he's like, I trust, I trust you to do that.

00:06:04.639 --> 00:06:09.120
<v Arielle Houlihan>But you do know you represent something that is not just yourself with stuff too.

00:06:09.120 --> 00:06:15.360
<v Arielle Houlihan>So there is a little bit of a like a different tinge to what you are gonna be doing for the next couple months, but still, yeah.

00:06:15.439 --> 00:06:24.160
<v Matt Houlihan>And I mean, to be fully transparent, like my my priority with it is I want this team to know that I'm there for them.

00:06:24.160 --> 00:06:33.120
<v Matt Houlihan>Yeah, and so I'm I don't want to put them in a situation where they feel like I'm I'm not there for them or I'm not fully invested in their success versus anyone else's success.

00:06:33.120 --> 00:06:37.199
<v Matt Houlihan>Um, and I think I can I'll prove that to them day in and day out.

00:06:37.199 --> 00:06:52.480
<v Matt Houlihan>But uh yeah, transparency-wise, I'm I'll be a little bit more reserved in some of the things because also time-wise, man oh man, like this takes up a lot of time to try and make this make these programs run uh so that they fire on all cylinders.

00:06:52.560 --> 00:06:55.360
<v Daniel Rasay>So would you say mission accomplished?

00:06:56.560 --> 00:06:58.160
<v Arielle Houlihan>Yeah, would you say mission accomplished?

00:06:58.399 --> 00:06:59.680
<v Matt Houlihan>Mission accomplished for what?

00:07:00.240 --> 00:07:16.800
<v Daniel Rasay>Uh when you called me and you were filling me in on kind of the going-ons about this happening, my crazy brain thought uh conspiracy theory and cue the cue the conspiracy theory theme music.

00:07:16.800 --> 00:07:17.519
<v Daniel Rasay>Yeah, please.

00:07:17.519 --> 00:07:20.399
<v Daniel Rasay>Someone someone can't someone someone make that happen for us.

00:07:20.399 --> 00:07:20.959
<v Daniel Rasay>Yeah.

00:07:20.959 --> 00:07:39.519
<v Daniel Rasay>I when I was thinking about leaving Stanford, you were very supportive, and I was talking starting my own business and seeing if I could get this support of Beta Bay, and you were just like, Yeah, whatever you do, you're gonna kill it, and like kind of helping me make that decision and giving me the support.

00:07:39.519 --> 00:07:45.360
<v Daniel Rasay>But it seems like there's some full circle here of you're trying to get me out.

00:07:45.920 --> 00:07:46.959
<v Arielle Houlihan>Push you off a clip.

00:07:47.279 --> 00:07:52.000
<v Daniel Rasay>Yeah, because you're in the position I was in, and I'm sure you were feeding Spencer the same.

00:07:52.000 --> 00:07:52.800
<v Daniel Rasay>You know, yes.

00:07:53.199 --> 00:07:55.680
<v Arielle Houlihan>Yeah, Spencer, Minnesota sounds like a great opportunity.

00:07:56.720 --> 00:08:00.399
<v Daniel Rasay>Yeah, so congratulations on You did it.

00:08:00.399 --> 00:08:00.959
<v Daniel Rasay>Yeah.

00:08:04.399 --> 00:08:08.800
<v Matt Houlihan>My full mission was to get Daniel out after a decade plus of service.

00:08:09.279 --> 00:08:11.040
<v Daniel Rasay>You've been dreaming about it since you were a little kid.

00:08:11.040 --> 00:08:19.759
<v Daniel Rasay>Like, you know, commiserating in our hotel rooms of like, yeah, this is really tough, and then supporting me when thinking about going elsewhere.

00:08:19.759 --> 00:08:20.879
<v Daniel Rasay>The long con.

00:08:20.879 --> 00:08:21.360
<v Daniel Rasay>Yeah.

00:08:21.360 --> 00:08:22.639
<v Daniel Rasay>You were you're amazing.

00:08:22.639 --> 00:08:23.199
<v Daniel Rasay>Committed.

00:08:23.199 --> 00:08:23.360
<v Daniel Rasay>Yeah.

00:08:24.319 --> 00:08:25.040
<v Matt Houlihan>Um I'm on it.

00:08:25.040 --> 00:08:33.279
<v Matt Houlihan>Welcome to the newest episode, the newest weekly segment, Daniel's tinfoil hat corner over here, where I've replaced him to get paid.

00:08:35.919 --> 00:08:38.720
<v Arielle Houlihan>I think it's a good start of uh conspiracy theories.

00:08:38.960 --> 00:08:39.279
<v Daniel Rasay>Yeah.

00:08:39.279 --> 00:08:46.799
<v Daniel Rasay>And I think for the sake of more viewership, the internet loves some conspiracy theories, so that's what I'm trying to get going here.

00:08:46.799 --> 00:08:48.000
<v Daniel Rasay>Co-hosts are already five.

00:08:48.320 --> 00:08:51.200
<v Arielle Houlihan>I wonder if there are other people that also have this conspiracy theory.

00:08:51.440 --> 00:08:52.639
<v Matt Houlihan>I bet you there's a whole group of them.

00:08:52.639 --> 00:08:58.000
<v Matt Houlihan>Spencer, who doesn't listen to this podcast, is now gonna get sent us and he's gonna be like, Wait, he was supportive at me?

00:09:02.799 --> 00:09:04.159
<v Daniel Rasay>Did I make the wrong choice?

00:09:04.159 --> 00:09:12.159
<v Daniel Rasay>But I also thought, like, if you really wanted my position, we shared a room, you could just smother me with a pillow, and that's that's an easier route back.

00:09:12.960 --> 00:09:14.240
<v Matt Houlihan>Your short ribs are too tasty.

00:09:14.240 --> 00:09:15.120
<v Matt Houlihan>I can't do that to you.

00:09:15.440 --> 00:09:17.360
<v Arielle Houlihan>What's going on in the men's volleyball world right now?

00:09:17.759 --> 00:09:18.799
<v Matt Houlihan>Do you guys see the NIL?

00:09:18.799 --> 00:09:19.679

<v Matt Houlihan>You know, there's there was some hype around it.

00:10:11.919 --> 00:10:23.600
<v Matt Houlihan>Um, and it turns out we might need to get Daniel Daniel's conspiracy theory over here, but my conspiracy theory is we've got we got a little bit of a fire fest of volleyball type of situation going on.

00:10:23.919 --> 00:10:27.440
<v Arielle Houlihan>I haven't heard anything for real yet, other than it got canceled.

00:10:27.440 --> 00:10:29.279
<v Arielle Houlihan>It was a USA volleyball event.

00:10:29.279 --> 00:10:31.519
<v Arielle Houlihan>Uh I didn't even realize that they were in the eye.

00:10:31.519 --> 00:10:32.879
<v Arielle Houlihan>I didn't realize that either.

00:10:32.960 --> 00:10:35.279
<v Chad Gordon>Uh it was part of the UH like announcement.

00:10:35.279 --> 00:10:38.320
<v Chad Gordon>They were like, hey, like, we're sorry that they to announce that this has been cancelled.

00:10:38.320 --> 00:10:40.639
<v Chad Gordon>We were informed by USA volleyball and the other like organizers.

00:10:40.639 --> 00:10:42.879
<v Chad Gordon>Go for it, yeah.

00:10:43.120 --> 00:10:49.279
<v Daniel Rasay>Supposedly, like the page on the USA volleyball site went missing this morning.

00:10:49.840 --> 00:10:52.320
<v Matt Houlihan>And yeah, there was there's a couple posts about it.

00:10:52.320 --> 00:10:59.679
<v Matt Houlihan>Like it was it got removed from the USC schedule and then it got put back up, and then I mean, so few people even knew about this event.

00:10:59.840 --> 00:11:05.519
<v Chad Gordon>Like, nothing was marketed unless you were like a diehard, you know, following one of your one of these teams, right?

00:11:05.600 --> 00:11:07.360
<v Matt Houlihan>Like, I mean, I think it was in the story.

00:11:07.360 --> 00:11:13.919
<v Matt Houlihan>So there was, I mean, there was kind of some some inklings of like, is this thing actually happening for for a little while, right?

00:11:13.919 --> 00:11:19.279
<v Matt Houlihan>Like, people were like, it's it's everything says TBD, TB announced, like we haven't really heard anything.

00:11:19.279 --> 00:11:26.559
<v Matt Houlihan>Yeah, and it just seemed like an idea that didn't like someone did not have the legs to get it to get it off the ground.

00:11:26.559 --> 00:11:32.799
<v Matt Houlihan>But I did not realize it was a USAV thing, which of course Conspiracy.

00:11:32.799 --> 00:11:36.799
<v Matt Houlihan>We don't that does not blow back nicely on uh on our governing body in that sense.

00:11:36.799 --> 00:11:41.440
<v Matt Houlihan>Like Hawaii was pretty quick to throw USAV as it looks like that's the Hawaii graphic.

00:11:41.440 --> 00:11:45.360
<v Matt Houlihan>Yeah, that Hawaii graphic makes it seem like USAV has canceled.

00:11:45.600 --> 00:11:46.240
<v Arielle Houlihan>Yeah.

00:11:47.840 --> 00:11:50.480
<v Daniel Rasay>Well, I know their fans were like, when can we buy tickets?

00:11:50.480 --> 00:11:52.159
<v Daniel Rasay>When can we white tickets?

00:11:52.159 --> 00:11:55.600
<v Daniel Rasay>And I think that's when things started to come clear.

00:11:58.960 --> 00:12:01.039
<v Arielle Houlihan>And they were like, Oh, wait, this wasn't real.

00:12:01.039 --> 00:12:01.440
<v Arielle Houlihan>Right.

00:12:01.440 --> 00:12:04.639
<v Arielle Houlihan>So I mean, those are that's that was that was gonna be bus that they threw in there.

00:12:05.519 --> 00:12:06.879
<v Matt Houlihan>Oh, yeah, that would be two big matchups.

00:12:06.879 --> 00:12:11.519
<v Matt Houlihan>Well, not anymore.

00:12:12.320 --> 00:12:12.879
<v Arielle Houlihan>Who was it?

00:12:12.879 --> 00:12:13.840
<v Arielle Houlihan>It was like volley station.

00:12:13.840 --> 00:12:16.320
<v Arielle Houlihan>People were like, Are you guys going to the Honda Center thing?

00:12:16.399 --> 00:12:20.960
<v Chad Gordon>And we were like, I didn't I didn't know about this event two weeks ago and now it's canceled.

00:12:20.960 --> 00:12:22.240
<v Chad Gordon>So tough.

00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:24.240
<v Chad Gordon>I mean, I we were supposed to be there.

00:12:24.480 --> 00:12:24.960
<v Daniel Rasay>Oops.

00:12:24.960 --> 00:12:26.879
<v Daniel Rasay>I think Ja Rule was supposed to be there too.

00:12:28.159 --> 00:12:29.679
<v Arielle Houlihan>Ja Rule Kendall Jenner.

00:12:35.440 --> 00:12:36.399
<v Matt Houlihan>The volleyball foot.

00:12:36.399 --> 00:12:37.600
<v Matt Houlihan>Billy McFarland's back at it.

00:12:37.600 --> 00:12:38.639
<v Matt Houlihan>Billy McFarlane.

00:12:38.639 --> 00:12:43.600
<v Matt Houlihan>But he's going after small Olympic sports instead of large music festivals.

00:12:43.600 --> 00:12:50.320
<v Matt Houlihan>Um I saw that we had, I believe it was UCLA Long Beach added to their schedule that weekend.

00:12:50.320 --> 00:12:53.360
<v Matt Houlihan>They're playing each other, I believe, at UCLA.

00:12:53.519 --> 00:12:59.200
<v Arielle Houlihan>Um, so they called each other and they're like, okay, so this is canceled, so where it can go to your place or mine.

00:13:00.399 --> 00:13:06.559
<v Matt Houlihan>But interesting interestingly, nothing from USC, nothing from Hawaii, and Hawaii's press release, they say we're we're looking for other solutions.

00:13:06.559 --> 00:13:09.360
<v Matt Houlihan>But I would you would think that that would be the immediate reason.

00:13:09.679 --> 00:13:15.039
<v Arielle Houlihan>Well, there was obviously an alliance made between two of them, and they left the other two out.

00:13:15.039 --> 00:13:16.799
<v Arielle Houlihan>Do you want to form 100%?

00:13:16.799 --> 00:13:17.759
<v Arielle Houlihan>Yeah, the alliance.

00:13:17.759 --> 00:13:19.279
<v Arielle Houlihan>There was an alliance form.

00:13:19.279 --> 00:13:24.240
<v Arielle Houlihan>McRae and Hawks stubbed on the phone with each other and they were like, hey, you guys want to put your hands in the middle?

00:13:24.240 --> 00:13:27.120
<v Arielle Houlihan>And then the other two were like, Lord of the Rings.

00:13:27.120 --> 00:13:28.559
<v Arielle Houlihan>Yeah, that's probably what happened.

00:13:28.799 --> 00:13:32.720
<v Matt Houlihan>The Riders of Rohan formed joined forces with uh Middle Earth.

00:13:32.960 --> 00:13:37.039
<v Chad Gordon>I think I think that's a butchering of how I think I remember that movie.

00:13:37.519 --> 00:13:38.879
<v Matt Houlihan>The Riders of Rohan are real.

00:13:39.279 --> 00:13:40.080
<v Chad Gordon>I understand that.

00:13:40.080 --> 00:13:41.360
<v Chad Gordon>Roh Rohiman.

00:13:41.360 --> 00:13:42.080
<v Chad Gordon>Sure.

00:13:42.080 --> 00:13:48.159
<v Chad Gordon>I would have just assumed that UH had their flights and would be flying into Los Angeles anyway.

00:13:48.159 --> 00:13:48.559
<v Chad Gordon>Right.

00:13:48.559 --> 00:13:48.799
<v Chad Gordon>Yeah.

00:13:48.799 --> 00:13:50.000
<v Chad Gordon>Could just play SC.

00:13:50.559 --> 00:13:57.200
<v Arielle Houlihan>Except if SC's gym, if Galen Center was booked, now they're probably scrambling through like Galen Center's hosting the Kids' Choice Awards again.

00:13:57.519 --> 00:13:58.799
<v Chad Gordon>Probably like something's going on.

00:13:58.799 --> 00:14:04.639
<v Chad Gordon>I'm sure that they can play at any one of the many gyms that are around the Los Angeles metropolitan area.

00:14:04.960 --> 00:14:09.440
<v Arielle Houlihan>That's probably why, since it got canceled this afternoon, that's probably why we haven't heard anything yet.

00:14:09.440 --> 00:14:10.559
<v Arielle Houlihan>That's fair.

00:14:10.879 --> 00:14:11.360
<v Matt Houlihan>But yeah.

00:14:11.679 --> 00:14:12.720
<v Arielle Houlihan>That's just a guess.

00:14:12.720 --> 00:14:15.600
<v Arielle Houlihan>Honestly, none of this is founded on any facts.

00:14:16.080 --> 00:14:19.440
<v Matt Houlihan>That's why that's why we lumped this under the Daniel conspiracy corner.

00:14:20.080 --> 00:14:21.519
<v Arielle Houlihan>This is all part of Daniel's conspiracy.

00:14:21.519 --> 00:14:22.399
<v Arielle Houlihan>You got anything else in there?

00:14:22.399 --> 00:14:23.840
<v Arielle Houlihan>You got anything else up there?

00:14:24.159 --> 00:14:25.120
<v Matt Houlihan>Tell us more.

00:14:25.519 --> 00:14:26.320
<v Arielle Houlihan>Men's volleyball?

00:14:26.559 --> 00:14:26.960
<v Chad Gordon>Nothing.

00:14:26.960 --> 00:14:30.799
<v Chad Gordon>I think the rankings all say the same, like for like the top nine or ten or whatever it was.

00:14:31.120 --> 00:14:31.840
<v Daniel Rasay>I hate the rankings.

00:14:32.000 --> 00:14:32.080
<v Chad Gordon>Yeah.

00:14:32.080 --> 00:14:33.200
<v Chad Gordon>We should have our own rankings.

00:14:33.200 --> 00:14:34.159
<v Chad Gordon>What happened to our own rankings?

00:14:34.159 --> 00:14:34.799
<v Chad Gordon>Yeah.

00:14:34.799 --> 00:14:35.200
<v Chad Gordon>It's true.

00:14:35.440 --> 00:14:36.720
<v Daniel Rasay>It's based on conspiracy.

00:14:36.720 --> 00:14:38.799
<v Daniel Rasay>Potential, basically.

00:14:38.799 --> 00:14:39.600
<v Daniel Rasay>Right?

00:14:40.000 --> 00:14:42.080
<v Arielle Houlihan>Oh, can we talk about the rankings for a second?

00:14:42.080 --> 00:14:43.679
<v Arielle Houlihan>Concordia.

00:14:43.679 --> 00:14:52.720
<v Arielle Houlihan>Concordia has posted multiple times this week saying for the first time in program history, number 20 in the rankings.

00:14:52.720 --> 00:14:54.720
<v Arielle Houlihan>There's like 30 schools.

00:14:54.720 --> 00:14:59.039
<v Arielle Houlihan>They're like they've like been really excited about this 20th ranking.

00:14:59.360 --> 00:15:00.240
<v Chad Gordon>The top two thirds.

00:15:00.960 --> 00:15:05.120
<v Daniel Rasay>The funny thing is they beat Princeton, and Princeton is ranked higher than them.

00:15:05.440 --> 00:15:06.480
<v Arielle Houlihan>That's crazy too.

00:15:07.279 --> 00:15:13.279
<v Matt Houlihan>Well, they used to that was our complaint last year, and why we started our own rankings, was they used to make coaches publish.

00:15:13.279 --> 00:15:16.960
<v Matt Houlihan>Because you just get coaches who are lazy with it and they're like, we gotta bring that back.

00:15:16.960 --> 00:15:18.000
<v Matt Houlihan>Maybe we do.

00:15:18.000 --> 00:15:18.960
<v Matt Houlihan>Maybe this is the call.

00:15:18.960 --> 00:15:20.480
<v Matt Houlihan>The call for your for your for you guys.

00:15:20.879 --> 00:15:21.759
<v Arielle Houlihan>Then it turned into the media poll.

00:15:22.000 --> 00:15:24.159
<v Matt Houlihan>There's gonna be a lot of Stanford number ones in this poll.

00:15:24.480 --> 00:15:27.120
<v Arielle Houlihan>Yeah, this is just a we can't even do that poll.

00:15:27.440 --> 00:15:28.240
<v Matt Houlihan>Yeah, you guys can do it.

00:15:28.799 --> 00:15:35.039
<v Arielle Houlihan>We have our own biases as well of like what we like, I guess.

00:15:35.039 --> 00:15:35.440
<v Arielle Houlihan>Sure.

00:15:35.440 --> 00:15:37.600
<v Arielle Houlihan>But like I don't know.

00:15:38.000 --> 00:15:39.279
<v Chad Gordon>Yeah, you guys can certainly do that.

00:15:39.279 --> 00:15:43.519
<v Chad Gordon>Well, there was at least movement like over the course of a couple months rather than that.

00:15:43.759 --> 00:15:46.399
<v Matt Houlihan>I think that's I think that's what we when we went off on it last year.

00:15:46.399 --> 00:15:52.159
<v Matt Houlihan>The main thing is A number one, there's no transparency as to who's voting to what.

00:15:52.159 --> 00:15:56.639
<v Matt Houlihan>So we made it very clear when we were voting, this is what we're voting, and B number two, I agree with Daniel.

00:15:56.639 --> 00:16:00.559
<v Matt Houlihan>It's more like potential rather than like here's where it currently stands.

00:16:00.559 --> 00:16:02.720
<v Matt Houlihan>You lose, yeah, your ranking changes.

00:16:02.720 --> 00:16:05.279
<v Matt Houlihan>That's that's the way and like big swings.

00:16:05.440 --> 00:16:05.600
<v unknown>Yeah.

00:16:05.759 --> 00:16:06.720
<v Chad Gordon>Yeah, get out of my top ten.

00:16:06.720 --> 00:16:07.919
<v Chad Gordon>Yeah, get out of my top ten.

00:16:08.240 --> 00:16:08.399
<v unknown>Yeah.

00:16:08.559 --> 00:16:12.080
<v Matt Houlihan>And then the explanation we gave the explanation scenario would be like vibes.

00:16:12.080 --> 00:16:12.879
<v Matt Houlihan>My vibe is bad.

00:16:12.960 --> 00:16:13.759
<v Arielle Houlihan>Yeah, my vibes are bad.

00:16:14.000 --> 00:16:14.480
<v Matt Houlihan>I get bad vibes.

00:16:14.799 --> 00:16:16.559
<v Arielle Houlihan>I don't like the way that they looked at each other.

00:16:16.639 --> 00:16:17.279
<v Matt Houlihan>Yeah.

00:16:17.279 --> 00:16:22.720
<v Matt Houlihan>So hey, you guys could I think you guys can bring that one back.

00:16:23.519 --> 00:16:24.799
<v Arielle Houlihan>He's saying you guys.

00:16:24.960 --> 00:16:25.840
<v Matt Houlihan>I can't do that one.

00:16:25.840 --> 00:16:26.879
<v Matt Houlihan>I'm at I'm out on that one.

00:16:26.879 --> 00:16:27.200
<v Matt Houlihan>That's okay.

00:16:27.200 --> 00:16:27.759
<v Matt Houlihan>Okay, fine.

00:16:27.759 --> 00:16:31.360
<v Matt Houlihan>But I do think we have we have more traders to join that trader poll, right?

00:16:31.360 --> 00:16:34.159
<v Matt Houlihan>We've got you got a you could bring in a Matt Worley for that one.

00:16:34.159 --> 00:16:35.679
<v Matt Houlihan>You could bring in a Spencer.

00:16:35.679 --> 00:16:36.240
<v Matt Houlihan>Spencer?

00:16:36.240 --> 00:16:37.600
<v Matt Houlihan>You can bring in a Spencer for that one.

00:16:37.759 --> 00:16:39.440
<v Arielle Houlihan>Yeah, yeah.

00:16:39.759 --> 00:16:40.720
<v Matt Houlihan>You get some couple options.

00:16:40.720 --> 00:16:42.240
<v Matt Houlihan>You got a couple options to bring in there.

00:16:42.879 --> 00:16:43.759
<v Arielle Houlihan>We can bring that back.

00:16:44.080 --> 00:16:44.320
<v Matt Houlihan>Excited.

00:16:44.320 --> 00:16:46.080
<v Matt Houlihan>I like a Spencer McLaughlin again.

00:16:46.080 --> 00:16:47.279
<v Matt Houlihan>You know, now he's a head coach.

00:16:47.600 --> 00:16:48.000
<v Arielle Houlihan>He is.

00:16:48.320 --> 00:16:50.639
<v Matt Houlihan>Might might be a little bit more responsible with his voting.

00:16:50.639 --> 00:16:50.960
<v Matt Houlihan>You know?

00:16:50.960 --> 00:16:53.120
<v Matt Houlihan>Spencer responsible?

00:16:53.120 --> 00:16:56.320
<v Matt Houlihan>Daniel.

00:16:56.320 --> 00:16:57.360
<v Matt Houlihan>Clip that and send it on.

00:16:57.759 --> 00:16:59.759
<v Arielle Houlihan>Daniel's only conspiracy today.

00:16:59.759 --> 00:17:00.960
<v Arielle Houlihan>Only conspiracies.

00:17:01.200 --> 00:17:03.679
<v Matt Houlihan>Daniel's like, that's not a conspiracy, that's just a fact.

00:17:03.679 --> 00:17:07.039
<v Matt Houlihan>All right, we're leaving.

00:17:07.039 --> 00:17:08.000
<v Matt Houlihan>He's like, what are we doing?

00:17:08.000 --> 00:17:09.039
<v Matt Houlihan>We're leaving this week.

00:17:09.039 --> 00:17:11.759
<v Matt Houlihan>We've got Stanford versus UC Irvine.

00:17:11.759 --> 00:17:15.599
<v Matt Houlihan>We have a we have a couple big matchups here within this dynamic.

00:17:15.599 --> 00:17:20.160
<v Matt Houlihan>Number one, you've got John Costi versus his son Cameron Costi.

00:17:20.160 --> 00:17:21.200
<v Matt Houlihan>Big time.

00:17:21.200 --> 00:17:21.920
<v Matt Houlihan>Cute.

00:17:21.920 --> 00:17:22.480
<v Matt Houlihan>Cute.

00:17:22.480 --> 00:17:26.000
<v Matt Houlihan>My first order of business when I got uh hired on Monday.

00:17:26.000 --> 00:17:38.400
<v Matt Houlihan>I took Blue Painter's tape, and John's got a big picture of Cameron in his beta Bay jersey in his office, and I put a big X over Cameron's face and wrote not this week, and I sent Cameron a picture of it.

00:17:38.400 --> 00:17:39.920
<v Matt Houlihan>Um that was my first order of business.

00:17:39.920 --> 00:17:42.079
<v Matt Houlihan>But actually, most in the first order.

00:17:42.079 --> 00:17:45.359
<v Matt Houlihan>That was the literal my first action besides saying hello.

00:17:45.359 --> 00:17:47.039
<v Matt Houlihan>You're gonna do that to my newcomer of the year.

00:17:47.039 --> 00:17:47.359
<v Matt Houlihan>Yeah.

00:17:47.359 --> 00:17:48.000
<v Matt Houlihan>All right.

00:17:48.000 --> 00:17:59.440
<v Matt Houlihan>Besides that saying hello, but the the real most important matchup we've got here is we've got some we've got some Chad Gordon quarterback lineage about to go down.

00:17:59.440 --> 00:18:04.079
<v Matt Houlihan>Chad, can you can you tell the tell the viewers this little backstory here?

00:18:04.319 --> 00:18:07.519
<v Chad Gordon>Yeah, my my first summer coming back from Illinois.

00:18:07.519 --> 00:18:10.319
<v Chad Gordon>Uh I wanted to assist some older team.

00:18:10.319 --> 00:18:12.400
<v Chad Gordon>I was like, no, here's the 12-2s.

00:18:12.400 --> 00:18:14.400
<v Chad Gordon>Go be the head coach.

00:18:14.400 --> 00:18:24.319
<v Chad Gordon>Um and so Cameron Cossi is on this team, Theron Briette is on this team, Rowan David Alviar, Princeton's Libera is on this team, who's like eight.

00:18:24.319 --> 00:18:25.519
<v Chad Gordon>That's a different story.

00:18:25.519 --> 00:18:27.440
<v Chad Gordon>Um best player on the team.

00:18:27.440 --> 00:18:28.559
<v Chad Gordon>Not even close.

00:18:28.720 --> 00:18:30.319
<v Arielle Houlihan>Oh man, who's the best player on the team?

00:18:30.480 --> 00:18:30.960
<v Chad Gordon>No, Rowan.

00:18:30.960 --> 00:18:31.599
<v Chad Gordon>Like, not even close.

00:18:31.599 --> 00:18:32.319
<v Chad Gordon>Yeah, yeah.

00:18:32.319 --> 00:18:34.079
<v Chad Gordon>He walked he walked this different aside.

00:18:34.400 --> 00:18:35.279
<v Arielle Houlihan>Not even close in a good way.

00:18:35.920 --> 00:18:36.880
<v Chad Gordon>He walked in 20 minutes late.

00:18:36.880 --> 00:18:38.160
<v Chad Gordon>He's like, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry.

00:18:38.160 --> 00:18:39.119
<v Chad Gordon>I'm like, Rowan, you're eight.

00:18:39.119 --> 00:18:41.440
<v Chad Gordon>Like your parents drove you, like it's all good.

00:18:41.440 --> 00:18:42.559
<v Chad Gordon>We're like in butterfly.

00:18:42.559 --> 00:18:44.559
<v Chad Gordon>He like step closes and yassis the ball.

00:18:44.559 --> 00:18:46.799
<v Chad Gordon>I'm like, Rowan, you can show up whenever the hell you want.

00:18:46.799 --> 00:18:51.599
<v Chad Gordon>This is the best player I've ever seen in your four years too young.

00:18:51.599 --> 00:18:54.799
<v Chad Gordon>You're a whole college degree, too young for this team.

00:18:54.799 --> 00:19:00.079
<v Chad Gordon>Um yeah, no, quarterback controversy on that team for sure.

00:19:00.079 --> 00:19:09.680
<v Chad Gordon>Um, I guess you'd call it a 6'6, and you know, T and Cameron and Rowan at that time were like Rowan was small, but like really good.

00:19:09.680 --> 00:19:16.240
<v Chad Gordon>But T and Cameron were like two of the bigger kids, and so like that you put them in the middle and you just yeah.

00:19:16.240 --> 00:19:17.359
<v Chad Gordon>Chuck.

00:19:17.359 --> 00:19:18.480
<v Chad Gordon>You let them, yeah, dude.

00:19:18.480 --> 00:19:20.640
<v Chad Gordon>Cameron, Cameron was slinging it on the 12th.

00:19:21.119 --> 00:19:21.599
<v Arielle Houlihan>Slinging it.

00:19:21.599 --> 00:19:22.160
<v Arielle Houlihan>For sure.

00:19:22.160 --> 00:19:22.960
<v Arielle Houlihan>That's the right word.

00:19:23.119 --> 00:19:25.119
<v Chad Gordon>Uh T was yachtsing a lot of two balls.

00:19:25.119 --> 00:19:25.599
<v Chad Gordon>Nice.

00:19:25.599 --> 00:19:31.519
<v Chad Gordon>Um but yeah, no, we got a good uh good Stanford uh Irvine matchup coming up here uh pretty quick.

00:19:31.519 --> 00:19:33.680
<v Chad Gordon>And uh I'm interested to see how it plays out.

00:19:33.920 --> 00:19:34.720
<v Matt Houlihan>Battle of the twos.

00:19:34.720 --> 00:19:43.599
<v Matt Houlihan>Uh the other dynamic that I I just have to get your your sense and your vibe on is like, are you gonna are you gonna drift either direction?

00:19:43.599 --> 00:19:44.960
<v Matt Houlihan>Are you just rooting for a good side?

00:19:44.960 --> 00:19:47.440
<v Matt Houlihan>Are you do you have anything that do you root do you root?

00:19:47.440 --> 00:19:48.480
<v Matt Houlihan>Stanford Irvine?

00:19:48.480 --> 00:19:50.000
<v Matt Houlihan>Yeah, do you root a certain way?

00:19:50.400 --> 00:19:51.359
<v Chad Gordon>Yeah, Stanford.

00:19:51.359 --> 00:19:55.200
<v Chad Gordon>So live in the Bay Area and we got more of those kids.

00:19:55.200 --> 00:19:55.759
<v Chad Gordon>Yeah, it's true.

00:19:55.759 --> 00:19:57.279
<v Chad Gordon>Santa Santa Barbara was interesting though.

00:19:57.279 --> 00:19:59.359
<v Chad Gordon>Yeah, that was kind of Santa Barbara that was a lot.

00:19:59.359 --> 00:20:00.640
<v Chad Gordon>Drama modern.

00:20:00.640 --> 00:20:01.279
<v Chad Gordon>Yeah, right.

00:20:01.279 --> 00:20:04.960
<v Chad Gordon>So like I'm talking with like I'm talking with John Wallace, and I'm like, oh man, I'm like kind of in the middle.

00:20:04.960 --> 00:20:07.519
<v Chad Gordon>Like he's obviously like with his scout sho folks.

00:20:07.519 --> 00:20:08.240
<v Chad Gordon>Sure.

00:20:08.240 --> 00:20:11.039
<v Chad Gordon>I'm just like, man, I'm just kind of hoping for good volleyball.

00:20:11.119 --> 00:20:11.759
<v Arielle Houlihan>Yeah.

00:20:12.720 --> 00:20:15.839
<v Chad Gordon>Prayers weren't 100% answered both nights, but that's all right.

00:20:15.839 --> 00:20:16.640
<v Chad Gordon>One night.

00:20:16.640 --> 00:20:17.200
<v Chad Gordon>One night.

00:20:17.200 --> 00:20:17.759
<v Chad Gordon>One night was good.

00:20:17.759 --> 00:20:19.519
<v Chad Gordon>One night was one night was less good.

00:20:19.519 --> 00:20:23.200
<v Chad Gordon>But yeah, no, you like you like to support the chose when they come to town.

00:20:23.200 --> 00:20:26.720
<v Chad Gordon>Obviously, those teams haven't played in a couple of years, I think, up here.

00:20:26.720 --> 00:20:27.920
<v Chad Gordon>It's been a little bit.

00:20:27.920 --> 00:20:29.839
<v Chad Gordon>Went down to Santa Barbara two years ago.

00:20:29.839 --> 00:20:30.319
<v Chad Gordon>Yeah.

00:20:30.319 --> 00:20:32.799
<v Chad Gordon>So no, it was just it was it was cool to see all those guys.

00:20:32.799 --> 00:20:35.839
<v Chad Gordon>And obviously, like there's like two dozen Beta Bay kids between those teams.

00:20:35.839 --> 00:20:37.920
<v Chad Gordon>So it's it's literally 11.

00:20:38.000 --> 00:20:38.799
<v Matt Houlihan>And then you had Marty.

00:20:38.799 --> 00:20:40.720
<v Matt Houlihan>Marty was on the bench.

00:20:40.720 --> 00:20:43.200
<v Matt Houlihan>Uh, and then we had shout out.

00:20:43.200 --> 00:20:45.920
<v Matt Houlihan>Andrew Weisner was the line judge.

00:20:45.920 --> 00:20:46.480
<v Matt Houlihan>Wheezy.

00:20:46.480 --> 00:20:47.359
<v Matt Houlihan>Wheezy's.

00:20:47.359 --> 00:20:52.559
<v Matt Houlihan>And I believe Wheezy can correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that was his first Division I men's volleyball match.

00:20:52.559 --> 00:20:52.960
<v Matt Houlihan>Oh, wow.

00:20:52.960 --> 00:20:54.000
<v Matt Houlihan>So that was a big moment for him.

00:20:54.000 --> 00:20:54.640
<v Matt Houlihan>I got a video.

00:20:54.640 --> 00:20:55.920
<v Matt Houlihan>I need to actually send it to him.

00:20:55.920 --> 00:20:57.920
<v Matt Houlihan>He was he was uh he was on the line.

00:20:57.920 --> 00:21:06.799
<v Matt Houlihan>He did get uh he did get overruled Stanford Challenge, one of his calls, and it was actually out, so he got overruled on one, but for the most part, Wheeze was on it.

00:21:06.799 --> 00:21:09.359
<v Matt Houlihan>So we had 13 Beta Bay people out on that.

00:21:09.359 --> 00:21:10.799
<v Matt Houlihan>That's a lot of kids on the floor.

00:21:10.799 --> 00:21:12.240
<v Matt Houlihan>It was pretty it was pretty cool.

00:21:12.240 --> 00:21:12.880
<v Matt Houlihan>That was a pretty cool.

00:21:13.119 --> 00:21:14.960
<v Arielle Houlihan>And honestly, the rest of the people there were Balboa.

00:21:15.200 --> 00:21:16.559
<v Matt Houlihan>Yeah, and there was a ton of Balboa too.

00:21:16.720 --> 00:21:20.480
<v Arielle Houlihan>There was like there was, I want to say like 10 Balboa kids that were playing as well.

00:21:20.720 --> 00:21:21.759
<v Matt Houlihan>Yeah, so it was crazy.

00:21:21.759 --> 00:21:23.759
<v Matt Houlihan>It was just funny to see those, all those.

00:21:23.759 --> 00:21:33.359
<v Matt Houlihan>I mean, a close-knit group, and and literally one of my favorite moments watching from this from the stands for that match was Moses versus Ben.

00:21:33.359 --> 00:21:34.880
<v Matt Houlihan>It was so funny.

00:21:34.880 --> 00:21:40.880
<v Matt Houlihan>Yeah, I think the downrest literally thought they were chirping at each other and they like told them to stop, and they're like, no, no, we're actually just friends.

00:21:40.880 --> 00:21:42.079
<v Matt Houlihan>We're cool, it's all good.

00:21:42.079 --> 00:21:44.079
<v Matt Houlihan>Yeah, like we like each other and we're good.

00:21:44.079 --> 00:21:45.519
<v Matt Houlihan>So there was some some really funny.

00:21:45.519 --> 00:21:50.960
<v Matt Houlihan>Yeah, so it was that was a a pretty cool dynamic to watch play out.
