50:38 - "Everyone saw it coming." Not quite everyone. The national media and AP poll voters sure didn't. Before the season started they ranked Arkansas above Kentucky. They were sure that Cal, not UK, was the brand. They severely underestimated the Pope hire.
Yeah it’s frustrating that all media outlets went from loving Auburn and Broome for NPOY to now completely switching up in a week to being all over Duke just because CF dunked on a mid Pitt team
Having lived in IN my whole life, the tide towards PU has turned a lot, especially in $$$$ Hamilton County, the fastest growing county in the Midwest. The south side of Indy is still decidedly IU. Rob, since 2003, IU has won 10 NCAA games & no EE’s. They have won ONE NCAA GAME in the last 8 YEARS! That brand has taken a significant hit. It’s the media that keeps perpetuating the myth and that’s another reason why people don’t like the media.
I feel the exact same way, Robic being on the sidelines was one of the key reasons Cal had so much success at Kentucky. In my opinion John Robic's role on the bench during that time was every bit as important as Cal's and the players. Since 2021, after the pandemic all of Cal's teams have looked mediocre to bad and they all fell short of expectations. Coincidentally that year {2020-2021} was the first season without Robic.
@@homerward8203 I dont believe that at all. Cal would've never fired Robic, he was Cal's ace in the hole. He knew how important Robic was. That would be like us knowing we had a winning lottery ticket then decide to throw it away. Robic chose to leave due to the death of his daughter at the time. Had that not happened he would still be right there on the sidelines with Cal.
Duke favoritism just makes me want to check out. Now they’re in a weak conference so they’ll win tons of games and get streams of 1 seeds unearned. They’ve played 3 top 25 teams. They’ve lost TWO of the THREE. There is absolutely ZERO justification for Duke to be called the top team. Now they’re beating up nobodies and will be given tons of treatment they don’t deserve. Stop with the Duke BS. Sick of seeing them given what they have instead of it being earned.
@@bradparnell614 I honestly think he is done with college hoops and maybe hoops altogether after this season. You can see it all over his face during games and press conferences. I think the game just evolved too fast and left Cal in the dust. He used to be tailor made for the college game pre-pandemic, now with NIL and transfer portal he has become damn near irrelevent. And we all know that Cal can't stand that shit
@revengense7604 what? What rivaled? Louisville is a bad program nobody cares about. Kentucky has owned them so bad nobody considered it a rivalry? What UK fan wants UL good? They trash Kentucky, they have a complex, and their fans don’t want us to win at all. They’re terrible and those of up who keep saying “them good is good for the rivalry” I just have a hard time seeing yall as real UK fans. The rivalry sucks because it isn’t one. Most of the city of Louisville are UK fans. They’ve never been that good minus 1 decade. Pitino went there because he couldn’t get into Kentucky and made a massive mistake. Had they not got lucky they wouldn’t have had anything since the 80’s. Now they’re done and nationally nobody thinks about Louisville. Quit the stupid “our rivalry” nonsense. Our real rivals are pretty much out of conference names like UNC Duke and Indiana even. Louisville is not nationally relevant and only makes us look worse hitting down. Stop. Nobody outside Kentucky thinks about Louisville and barely anyone in the state thinks about them either.
You realize half of y’all’s viewers are Auburn fans? Crazy that the #1 team in the nation beats down the #15 in their first game without the NPOTY and you only talk about it for 30 seconds at the end of the stream. No one wants to hear about Indiana’s shit program for 40 minutes. Unsubscribed. WDE!
Auburn is a doormat basketball program who was willing to hire a guy nobody was and he’s willing to stay in that nowhere town in Alabama because they’re willing to tank the future and hire his son. Y’all are ridiculous. Nobody cares about Auburn basketball.
Aren’t sold on Florida but ARE sold on Tennessee????? Tennessee has played ONE really good team and got dusted by 30 (THIRTY). Read that again. Tennessee has been GIFT WRAPPED their schedule. Miami? Syracuse? They’ve got Vandy next after Georgia at home. They aren’t even playing a tough SEC schedule compared to others. I don’t get it. They played ONE really good game/ top team and got Bitch SLAPPED. They have a pretty crappy offense. If Lanier doesn’t score 25+ on better teams they get beat. So why is UT seen as some top tier team? I don’t get it. They’re good, but I think them outside the top 25 is clearly okay.
Pearl to Indiana makes a lot of sense and I think everyone is crazy for suggesting Pearl and Auburn can’t be broken. Auburn if a terrible basketball school that just hired Pearl because they had nothing to lose. He’s done well but Pearl has ALWAYS wanted a true basketball program and he won at Indiana State. No way he won’t get a call from Indiana and if he does he could easily take it. The only reason he might not is Auburn has nothing to lose so they might let his son be coach in waiting. That’s the ONLY reason. No coach like Pearl wants to live in nowhere Alabama coaching a football school. He got into coaching for more than that. If he stays it has nothing to do with their program, it’s everything to do with 1. Auburn is the most penalized school in division 1 history. He can cheat and bang coeds there, players drugs etc everything goes. And 2, Auburn is said to be willing to let his son be coach in waiting and nowhere serious about basketball longevity would be willing to do that. So enough of beefing up a crappy program like Auburn. The reasons they are doing decent for the first time are more about cheating, a slime ball named Pearl, and doing whatever they can to keep him as long as they can (allowing his family to tank the program later. Tell the truth.
I'm happy for little brother (Louisville). They are hot right now, with that said, Go Big Blue!!!

How is Duke the best team in the NCAA? They have played three top 25 teams on lost to two of them. Weak team, weak conference.
Yeah it’s frustrating that all media outlets went from loving Auburn and Broome for NPOY to now completely switching up in a week to being all over Duke just because CF dunked on a mid Pitt team
There should be no debate on the second-best team in the ACC...Louisville has beaten all the other teams in that conversation
Facts the best team that isn’t being talked about at all
Louisville is a serious tuff team. Very hard to stop
Buzz Williams and Will Wade for Indiana.
Arkansas has very little team chemistry. Indiana has very little team discipline. The best SEC teams reak the opposite of that.
Love the pod guys!
Having lived in IN my whole life, the tide towards PU has turned a lot, especially in $$$$ Hamilton County, the fastest growing county in the Midwest. The south side of Indy is still decidedly IU.

10/10 DTF episode
Was Fanta streaming from a potato?
Confirmed Fanta and Rob are secretly beefing in the group chat
Calipari lost his longtime assistant John Robic. Been crap since
@jcritter9295 I agree with you 100%. I dont know what happened there but I know his wife was not happy with him more.or.less let go by Calipari.
@ his daughter was sick or something also.

@@jcritterkars Correct, Robic left on his own terms to cope with the death of his daughter who died from liver cancer
@@homerward8203 I dont believe that at all. Cal would've never fired Robic, he was Cal's ace in the hole. He knew how important Robic was.

Timestamp for Auburn?
I think they used Auburn to run the numbers up this time. I couldn't find it either! 😂

Lol John Calipari will be coaching at Indiana next Season 😂watch
If he was doing well enough to get hired by IU he'd still be at Arkansas next year.
@@bradparnell614 I honestly think he is done with college hoops and maybe hoops altogether after this season. You can see it all over his face during games and press conferences.

Either way he won't be at IU next season.
@ 100% agree with you there
@@bradparnell614 yeah ik, Coach Bobby Knight hated Calipari too. 😭
I mean top 5
Are the moving trucks at Cal’s house yet?
Go Cards baby!
Like to see yall playing well. It’s great for the rivalry.

Will Cal be the ultimate one and done this year???
Josh Schertz to Indiana with a Steve lutz type rise
TO is a hater. Won’t recognize the refs helped his team win. Calling the game in Clemson favor
Ole Miss it’s not the number one team in the SEC
Agreed
Clemson should be at least a 6 seed.

I don’t know who the guy on the left is but he is making a fool of himself
John Fanta is one of the most respected cbb guys
You can just say you're an Indiana fan and you're mad about it
Fanta is the man @@Cooliewhistles
If you don’t like John Fanta it says more about you than him
