00:00B, I think you're definitely going to like this.

00:02So Derek Queen, I was, I was really happy and proud of Derek Queen last night because

00:07he's a, you know, he's, he's a freshman, um, he, he just, it's, it's remarkable.

00:14He's got a real baby face and then he's got braces.

00:18Like he just looks like, if you just saw a picture of his face, you'd think he's 14 and

00:23he happens to be six foot 10, right.

00:26With incredible feet and, and handles.

00:29Um, but he got asked last night, um, kind of what coach Willard does to, to get this

00:37team together.

00:38Willard is someone who basketball players, uh, listen to, and what has he meant to you

00:45guys in the short time he's been with you?

00:47Uh, first, um, he didn't pay us the money.

00:51So we got, so we got to listen to him.

00:55Um, and we all trust him cause he's like a player coach and then, and then he went nothing

01:02but the best for us and he just, um, he coaches hard.

01:06He talked to us other than basketball.

01:08He's just always there and just wanted us to win first and give us the money.

01:15I thought you'd like that one, man.

01:16I, it was, um, it was such an awesome night.

01:20I, the only thing that's pissing me off now is there are a lot of people out there that

01:30you watch the queen shot.

01:32To me, that was a pretty clean two steps.

01:36If, if you want to call that a travel, then you got to start calling travels on like 65%

01:42of moves to the basket.

01:45Did that look at all?

01:46Like a travel to you?

01:47No, no.

01:48Most, listen, I'm gonna be honest with you.

01:50I think three steps is legal now because everybody does it.

01:54They do a shuffle and then they take a little extra step every time.

01:58I don't understand why people still talking about stuff like that.

02:01Like as if it's something that is so egregious, it's not.

02:06That didn't look like a travel to me live and there are plenty of times watching that

02:11game last night.

02:12The first tab was awful.

02:13They were awful.

02:15They were down like 16 at one point.

02:18They went into halftime down seven and in the first half I was not impressed with the

02:24hustle or physicality of some of the Maryland players and I was screaming at my television

02:30and I was screaming some words that little girls don't often hear and Shelby got like

02:37legit upset with me and so I tried to dial it back a little bit.

02:44She's she's a, she's a very, so you were losing it.

02:47She's a very devout Catholic and taking the Lord's name in vain is, is, is a problem.

02:52But dude, what was so bizarre is in the second half, Maryland came storming back at various

02:57points I felt pretty calm and then at the end I'm just like completely on edge and CSU,

03:04the kid hits that shot to go up one and I just like, I kind of felt it coming honestly

03:11because Maryland Reese hits two free throws to go up two and I'm like, all right, like

03:16this, they're going to shoot a three.

03:18Like there's no way they're tying this up.

03:20It's either going down or, or, or it's not.

03:23And they hit that and I just sunk into my chair.

03:26I just sunk and I was like, like a human centipede and then I, and then when Queen hit the shot,

03:36I didn't even yell.

03:37I just like jumped up and stood there in amazement.
