0:52
to 15, the lifestyle you want, the
0:55
remedies you need. So here he comes. This
0:57
NCAA president, his name is Charlie Baker. It
0:59
is almost
1:02
a meaningless
1:04
job. One
1:06
of the big problems in college sports is it has
1:08
no leadership. It has no direction. It has no
1:12
guidelines whatsoever. It doesn't know what it's doing
1:14
or where it's going. So this
1:16
guy who's president of the NCAA doesn't
1:19
even know what his real role is anymore,
1:21
but he's not wrong for coming out and
1:23
saying, in my opinion, coming out and saying,
1:26
sports betting issues are on the rise
1:28
across the country with prop bets, continuing
1:31
to threaten the integrity and
1:33
competition, and leading to student athletes
1:35
and professional athletes getting harassed. Also
1:37
true. Oh, yeah. When you were a
1:39
player, you were stopped by guys
1:42
who gambled at attorney houses all over campus. They say,
1:44
how are you going to do? What do you think
1:46
we're going to cover the spread? That's happened a long,
1:49
long time. Um, you
1:51
know, I mean, there's an argument there that
1:53
says, one,
1:55
you shouldn't be chatting with him. Two, turn
1:59
it off. But he says
2:01
the NCAA has been working with states to deal
2:03
with these threats and many are responding by banning
2:06
college prop bets I don't know of a state
2:08
that has done that I Don't
2:10
know. I don't think there's any state is no no
2:12
But good and there was a question about an NBA
2:14
player a few weeks ago There was
2:16
a big number on an NBA player like for three
2:19
point shots and they got played Five
2:22
minutes and that was it's John T.
2:24
Porter. That was it who's a moron.
2:26
Yeah, that was it. He he played
2:28
four minutes He bets
2:30
on the
2:32
under four points scored Which
2:35
was like it's six or seven and
2:37
he scored zero Yeah left the game left the game and
2:39
then the next night when he didn't have a bet he
2:42
scored 12 Yeah, and now he's probably
2:44
gonna be kicked out of the sport forever. But but
2:48
my argument there is He
2:50
the most he could have made was ten thousand dollars
2:52
his salaries 450. See he doesn't
2:54
need to do that Yeah, yeah now he's got
2:56
none. Yeah But in in
2:59
college sports $10,000
3:02
means a lot to a kid at
3:04
$10,000 $5,000 to some Iowa State football
3:07
player means a lot deal Yeah, I'll
3:09
do that. Yeah, what's it?
3:11
What's a miss field goal? What's an interception
3:13
big deal and for Some
3:15
just about every division one NCAA football
3:17
games month, but a basketball game not
3:20
on television. Yeah, what happened? Oh, he
3:22
missed a few shots and right up.
3:25
Oh that layup Oh tough tough Break
3:28
so I mean, I don't know I Think
3:31
I think that I think there's gonna be some bad stuff
3:33
there I do And I
3:35
don't know by your discussion that you're giving more
3:37
fodder to Dan Dan Patrick and
3:39
the near my god No, that's that's another
3:42
part of this that worries me is that
3:44
people? That's
3:46
not gonna be the reason why Dan Patrick
3:49
is in favor of it he's because of
3:51
his voters Yeah, yeah, who've never been on
3:53
a game or even watched the game No, I
3:56
never been into a casino or never. Yeah, right
3:58
but work of the devil that I'm not
4:00
gambling. But I wonder
4:02
if more people are
4:05
going to hear this and start
4:07
to say, yeah, you know, man, it's kind of sketchy.
4:09
I mean, I don't worry about that. And
4:13
I don't know that I would disagree with somebody who
4:15
says, for a college game, I think you should be
4:17
worried about it. For a pro game,
4:20
I would not be worried at all.
4:22
No, because they're highly paid. It's above
4:24
board. I mean, this guy was flagged.
4:26
This stupid John T. Porter guy was
4:29
flagged by either ESPN bets or
4:31
DraftKings, the one who just said that's a regular
4:33
bet, and they flagged him. That's
4:36
why you want it to be legal. You
4:38
want it to be legal. Not
4:41
for any moral reason, but because that way
4:43
it's not black
4:45
market. But
4:48
for college, I don't know. I
4:50
think the guys- College prop bets, that poses
4:52
a big problem. I agree. So
4:54
if some kid's in trouble, some kid needs
4:57
five, 10,000 bucks or whatever, they'll
4:59
take dives and they'll
5:01
throw it. Here's an AD
5:03
from San Diego State. It says- San Diego State's
5:05
still in the tournament, by the way. How
5:08
did they do that? Like, when did that happen? All of
5:10
a sudden, they look up and they're in the final. They
5:12
were in the final game last year. Now they're playing
5:15
tonight at 639 against UConn. They'll
5:17
get destroyed, but- They're going to get throttled. Yeah. He
5:21
says, our student athletes are going to class. They're
5:23
more available in the community. There's a lot more
5:25
opportunity for one of them to be pressured, for
5:28
them to have something negative happen because they
5:30
missed the free-thrower to the
5:33
over, the under, all those types of things. Yeah.
5:37
Correct. Right. Very, very right. I
5:40
mean, I don't know what you do about it though. Because
5:44
it's there. It is already there. It's
5:47
already there. Except in Texas. It
5:49
is in California. Not in California either. You're
5:51
right. Because that's Shoney Ohtonic. He couldn't
5:54
be, he didn't, he
5:56
made his bet with a legal bookie. And that's
5:58
exactly why it should be legal. Right. So
6:01
that illegal bookie doesn't exist. Right.
6:04
And there's tracking information and you really,
6:06
it would be harder to throw a
6:08
game if it's legal. Harder.
6:11
Very much. Because you're going to get exposed. You're
6:13
going to get exposed. Yeah. The
6:18
businesses don't want the
6:21
corruption. They don't want it. They want
6:23
to flag you. They want to be in
6:25
business. They want people taking risks. Legitimate consumers
6:28
taking risks. So I don't
6:30
know. I think this guy's for once, I
6:32
think the NCAA president who has no job
6:34
anymore really to speak of, he's
6:36
right about this. I
6:38
don't know what they can or
6:40
will be able to do. Why does the
6:43
NCAA even exist? Is it just for championships?
6:45
Even the college football playoffs are out of
6:47
the realm of the NCAA. I guess maybe
6:50
for lesser ... Less cross country championships,
6:52
tennis championships, wrestling. And this basketball. The
6:54
basketball too. Yeah. Sure. Which
6:57
is a ginormous moneymaker. Fish cow. But
7:00
the day's coming and we've talked about
7:02
it endlessly when there's going to be 48 to 50
7:06
top teams and they're going to say
7:08
... In football. Yeah, in football let's say we're
7:10
our own entity. You go do the
7:13
Mountain West and you go do the American Athletic,
7:15
we're going to do our own football because we
7:17
are in bed with the networks and
7:19
we're going to get Nick Saban or Mack Brown to
7:21
run the deal and it's football. It's big time football
7:23
ink. That's what it is. Yeah.
7:27
I don't know what he does, but he's not wrong about this.
7:29
I don't know what he or anyone else
7:31
can do. I mean,
7:33
you're a college guy, not a
7:35
player at Texas. I'm talking about just mediocre, run
7:38
of the mill and you
7:40
got scholarship money and that's nice, but
7:43
a chance to make a few thousand extra
7:45
dollars at the frat house if they say,
7:48
dude, if you make sure we hit
7:50
the under ... Yeah. It's
7:52
an extra two grand for you. I've
7:54
got you on a prop bet over
7:56
12 points tonight. Could
7:59
you help them? Could you help a guy out? What's
8:02
it in for me? Okay, we'll give you do that. And
8:04
they're also talking about guys getting hassled by people.
8:07
Yeah. I can't remember what basketball player the other night
8:09
said he was getting hassled as he came off the
8:11
floor. Yeah. People yelling at
8:13
him about the over under. That's hardcore. It
8:15
is. But they're in the stands. Yeah. And
8:18
in the state where you can do
8:20
it over the phone. You can do the
8:23
immediate and that just gets me when
8:25
you can, you can make
8:27
a bet. Every
8:30
moment during a game on something. Except in
8:32
Texas. Except in Texas. You can't do that
8:34
here. That's sinful. Yeah. You
8:37
can bet in the lottery here. Which I lost again
8:39
the other night. I was going to get great riches
8:41
and... Hey, I'm doing as much as
8:43
I can these days to lower my golf scores. I know a
8:45
lot of you can relate. And that
8:47
includes not just finding good equipment, but
8:49
the best equipment for me. Whatever
8:52
your handicap, if you want to improve your
8:54
golf game, pay close attention because you're about
8:56
to hear me use the term game changer
8:58
a lot. And for very good reasons. When
9:01
PXG says nobody makes golf clubs like they
9:03
do, they're not lying. You may
9:05
have heard about the PXG Black Ops. That's
9:08
the driver that promises you don't have
9:10
to sacrifice distance for forgiveness. So
9:12
I had to try it. In fact, today I spent well
9:14
over an hour and everything you
9:17
hear is true. These drivers are
9:19
amazing. Here's the way PXG works
9:21
so you know you're getting the right fit for you.
9:24
You schedule a fitting. There's convenient locations all
9:26
over the country, so it's easy. You meet
9:28
with a PXG expert that helps you find
9:30
the right driver for you. In my case,
9:32
I met with Kevin. He walked
9:34
me through the ways to find the right Black
9:36
Ops driver for me. This
9:39
includes the shaft, the club head design,
9:41
and even, and this is very cool,
9:43
the weight of the club head, the
9:45
toe, and the heel. See they can
9:47
adjust the weight depending
9:49
on the face angle at
9:51
impact. It's cool science. Once
9:54
you get the right combination with the help of
9:56
a PXG expert, you are set. The
9:58
PXG Black Ops driver. is a
10:01
breakthrough in technology. All the science you hear
10:03
is true. It's unlike anything you've ever tried.
10:05
Can I explain the science behind it? The
10:08
bottom line is this. You'll get the three
10:10
things for the Black Ops driver you want. That's
10:12
more forgiveness, more distance,
10:14
no sacrifices. I played
10:16
a long time and I can tell you
10:18
the PXG driver is a true game changer.

The market will always be up and down, so
10:47
you need a safe haven. You need the safe
10:49
haven asset of silver. It's a tangible asset and
10:51
think of all the reasons why silver will be
10:53
in demand. Electronics, solar panels,
10:55
medical devices, the list goes on. Demand
10:58
is not going away. When uncertainty
11:00
rises, investors turn to precious metals as
11:02
a hedge and right now the
11:05
silver to gold ratio is at record levels. Gold
11:07
is currently at an all-time high whereas silver is
11:10
50% below its all-time high. It's

14:03
Christian Leitner. Okay, 32 years
14:05
ago today, he just blew it. Thirty-two
14:07
years ago. What happened today? NCAA
14:10
basketball. Never gonna tease us. Garrett, what happened
14:12
32 years ago today? The
14:14
shot, I'm assuming so? The shot. Christian
14:16
Leitner's shot against the Kentucky Wildcats. Vern Lundquist had
14:18
the great call of it. Christian
14:21
Leitner was on a national show today, Greeny
14:23
Show on the mothership, and
14:25
Christian Leitner was very pointed in
14:27
his comments. The dude hates
14:30
name-image likeness, and he hates the
14:32
transfer portal. It's such a
14:34
totally different world. College basketball has really
14:36
gone through, I think, two
14:39
revolutions or something like that since you were there.
14:41
First, it went to the one and done era
14:43
where, you know, all the guys were going pro.
14:45
And now here we are in
14:47
this NIL transfer portal era where the
14:50
sport has really dramatically changed again from
14:52
where you sit and watch it as
14:54
one of the most famous college players
14:56
ever. What do you think about where the sport
14:58
is right now? They gotta take out
15:00
the NIL. They gotta wipe that out. They
15:02
gotta change the transfer portal. They got, I
15:05
know everyone's staying the horses out of the
15:07
barn and you can't take stuff back, but
15:11
how can you establish any type of
15:13
culture at a school when you're getting
15:15
new kids every year? That
15:17
would, that would mean every year was
15:20
like my freshman year at Duke. And
15:22
you're so much better your third,
15:24
your fourth year when you're under
15:27
one system, one program, one
15:29
coach, one specifically
15:31
defined culture that the way you want
15:34
to play office, the way you want
15:36
to play defense, I
15:38
don't know how the coaches do it in
15:40
today's game. And that's why
15:42
some of the better ones are starting to quit.
15:47
The coach at Villanova, he
15:49
never should have quit. Nick,
15:53
you've been thinking about quitting or you already
15:55
quit. I mean, it's
15:57
just, it's so bad to see some of these.
16:00
great, great coaches stop
16:02
coaching. And it's because of the NIL
16:04
it's because of the transfer portal. I
16:07
think I saw something with Nick Saban, where he
16:09
said, the first thing a
16:11
kid says to him and a recruit says to him
16:14
is how much money are you going to
16:16
get me? I mean, it's just
16:18
horrible. Well,
16:20
that was whining. Yeah. Christian Leitner. I
16:23
mean, he was on the dream team in 1992
16:25
team in an Olympic team. And
16:28
he did, which is
16:30
pretty amazing. The
16:32
most famous basketball team ever
16:34
assembled and he's there.
16:36
It's just a token college guy just to be
16:38
sitting there. Yeah.
