[speaker002:] oh mostly we watch college basketball
[speaker001:] oh do you
[speaker002:] yeah and uh you know we're from uh originally from Louisville Kentucky and they've got a fairly decent ball club down there
[speaker001:] uh-huh yeah it's been around for a long time hadn't it
[speaker002:] uh as long as I can remember
[speaker001:] yeah who's the coach's name
[speaker002:] Denny Crum
[speaker001:] yeah that sounds familiar
[speaker002:] yeah Denny Crum's pretty good
[speaker001:] yeah
[speaker002:] he uh I don't know he's got a million dollar contract when he quits
[speaker001:] and with pro ball you mean
[speaker002:] uh no with uh uh when he quits they'll give him a million dollars
[speaker001:] who will the opponents
[speaker002:] Denny Crum uh uh Louisville University the university gives him a million dollars when he quits
[speaker001:] well why that doesn't make sense does it
[speaker002:] because because he's good and it's giving him an incentitive to stay around and uh he's been there for something twenty something years
[speaker001:] uh-huh
[speaker002:] and uh I really don't know the uh full reason why they're doing it but they've got confidence in the man
[speaker001:] yeah yeah well to me I'd want to quit
[speaker002:] oh he gets too much he gets you know he
[speaker001:] oh that just shows how much he gets paid anyway
[speaker002:] yeah
[speaker001:] huh
[speaker002:] he's got a TV show down there and everything
[speaker001:] really where are y'all living now
[speaker002:] in Denison
[speaker001:] Denison
[speaker002:] Texas
[speaker001:] yeah do you ever watch the Mavericks
[speaker002:] sometimes
[speaker001:] yeah
[speaker002:] not a lot uh I I don't really care for pro basketball I like college basketball and pro football
[speaker001:] hm
[speaker002:] but I do watch some uh pro football basketball mostly it's uh I watch certain players
[speaker001:] yeah like who
[speaker002:] oh Magic Johnson uh
[speaker001:] uh-huh
[speaker002:] Larry Bird
[speaker001:] yeah
[speaker002:] uh Michael Jordan
[speaker001:] yeah he's good too
[speaker002:] and I can name a few more I just can't think of their names right off hand
[speaker001:] uh I used to watch basketball in fact of of the pro sports I guess it's my favorite it's just that I haven't watched many sports this year or in the past several years
[speaker002:] yeah well the uh NC double A tournament's going on right now and uh I haven't watched it this year because Louisville's out of it this year
[speaker001:] how come
[speaker002:] oh they just uh they had three tall guys who had uh didn't meet the requirements you know uh
[speaker001:] the uh academic requirements uh-huh
[speaker002:] yeah yeah academically they didn't meet the requirements so they couldn't play this year so four of them they had four people
[speaker001:] huh
[speaker002:] my husband's sitting here putting four fingers in my face four uh but they weren't very good but they was uh
[speaker001:] four out of five hurts
[speaker002:] huh
[speaker001:] four out of five hurt
[speaker002:] yeah well I think they got I think that was almost everyone of them that he recruited uh recruited for this year
[speaker001:] huh
[speaker002:] he didn't and none of them got to play
[speaker001:] yeah well no wonder they're out of it
[speaker002:] uh sorry
[speaker001:] I said no wonder they're out of it
[speaker002:] yeah well they put up a good show they did pretty good for uh
[speaker001:] yes
[speaker002:] you know having all short people and uh we only had
[speaker001:] uh-huh
[speaker002:] one we only had one senior on the team
[speaker001:] so they'll be back
[speaker002:] so next year they'll be back and back with a vengeance
[speaker001:] uh-huh well do you agree with that requirement that they meet those uh academic
[speaker002:] in some states yeah because it's reasonable now uh you know me with me being from Louisville I'm going to say at Louisville is unfair because Louisville's got the highest uh uh the line the line the line drawn I don't know the correct word for it but Louisville's is higher than most other universities and
[speaker001:] uh-huh well I didn't realize it could vary from state to state or university
[speaker002:] yeah yeah they they vary from university not just state to state university
[speaker001:] huh
[speaker002:] if they'd been anywhere else I don't you know I don't care where it was anywhere in the United States they could have played but beings they was in Louisville they couldn't play
[speaker001:] how does that coach feel about that
[speaker002:] oh he's highly upset he uh went on uh he was on uh Twenty Twenty or Sixty Minutes I can't remember which one and got blasted uh you know they uh that's where it all came about because he said a few remarks of uh on that uh talk show or
[speaker001:] uh-huh
[speaker002:] news show and then they uh next thing you know well they're in violation if they don't uh if they stop if they keep playing they're in violation
[speaker001:] hm
[speaker002:] so but uh Denny Crum ran his mouth a little bit too much
[speaker001:] him  on national TV
[speaker002:] on national TV he messed up but uh
[speaker001:] yeah it's all politics
[speaker002:] probably that's probably what it mostly is I I can't say say that for sure but you know uh right now though Kentucky's just now getting off of a uh their
[speaker001:] yeah
[speaker002:] suspension from playing on uh TV and then games
[speaker001:] um-hum
[speaker002:] next year they'll be uh playing and I know Memphis State was even in a few of them where they got uh couldn't play
[speaker001:] huh
[speaker002:] in uh games and stuff because of uh  uh Dana Kirk that was their coach down there uh or over there uh he he was uh we was living in Memphis for a while that's why I know about Memphis State
[speaker001:] uh-huh
[speaker002:] uh he was selling soda machines at the uh selling like Coca-Cola had given him
[speaker001:] uh-huh
[speaker002:] uh for this little uh this little uh kid's a a basketball camp that's what it is these little kids would come here and uh Coca-Cola had sponsored the uh sodas you know just give them to him told him to give them to the boys well he sold them for something like fifty seventy five cents to these boys when he's supposed to given them to them
[speaker001:] uh-huh uh-huh oh for heaven's sake what a cheapskate
[speaker002:] and uh yeah he was a he's uh we call him Dana Jerk
[speaker001:] yeah oh
[speaker002:] yeah and he blames all of his uh tax problems on his elementary school wife
[speaker001:] his elementary school wife
[speaker002:] yeah yeah she she never even got out of elementary school
[speaker001:] oh really
[speaker002:] um
[speaker001:] well she might have been the cause of it
[speaker002:] well no he was just a jerk he put uh he put the blame on everyone but himself he went out and you know bought uh bought recruits
[speaker001:] yeah yeah
[speaker002:] no I'm sure you know that's one thing you don't do
[speaker001:] uh yeah
[speaker002:] he went out and did that and he got caught and then he got caught with the taxes and then he got caught with the sodas and that soda really went over on the people in Memphis they really got hot about that
[speaker001:] yeah I can imagine especially the kids that were buying them
[speaker002:] yeah these were young kids too they couldn't have been out of middle school
[speaker001:] yeah huh well that almighty dollar
[speaker002:] yeah well that's uh yeah I'll agree there
[speaker001:] um-hum
