Judge halts South Carolina’s new stricter abortion law until state Supreme Court review
"South Carolina's newly signed abortion law has been temporarily halted by a judge. Judge Clifton Newman's ruling sends the new law that bans most abortions in South Carolina around 6 weeks of pregnancy to be reviewed. Planned Parenthood sued almost immediately after the bill was signed, a judge Newman said it would end up before the state Supreme Court anyway. The law is similar to one in 2021 that was struck down after the justices ruled three to two that it violated the state constitution's right to privacy lawmakers say the new law includes technical tweaks meant to appeal to justice John few, who wrote in his previous opinion that legislators didn't show that they did any work to determine if 6 weeks was enough time for a woman to know she was pregnant. The halt means the state reverts to a restriction at around 20 weeks for now. Since that decision justice Kay Hearn retired, making the South Carolina high court the only one in the country without a woman on the bench. I'm Jennifer King

South Carolina moves closer to abortion ban, a Southern trend that puts pressure on Virginia
"Another southern state appears ready to pass tighter new restrictions on abortion access, joining about a dozen other localities in the south. The South Carolina House of Representatives just passed a near ban on abortion access after 6 weeks before many women even know they're pregnant, and the state Senate will likely take a vote next week. It was one of the few places left in the south for those seeking abortions. With North Carolina lawmakers this week, overriding the governor's veto of their 12 week ban, which will now take effect July 1st. Doctor Erika pettigrew is disappointed. Really devastating to have a patient in front of you who needs something that you could clearly give, but the lawmakers tell you that you can't. She says she's been helping out of state women get abortion care and now she'll be helping her own patients to other states. The moral injury to physicians and to other medical professionals just can't be underestimated. Virginia remains an outlier in the south, where women still have unrestricted abortion access. The new limits follow the Supreme Court last year overturning roe versus wade. I'm Jackie Quinn

Joel Gilbert Predicts Shocking Fate for Joe Biden and Michelle Obama
"Joel Gilbert, welcome back. Great to be back. Thank you. All right, now as much as I love having you here, the idea that this is becoming more relevant is an unpleasant thing. But it is. It looks to me like I've said this many times. I don't see Joe Biden finishing his term for many reasons, I know he had all the vaccines and boosters. So he's probably going to drop dead any minute from a stroke, or more seriously, the corruption scandal with hunter. There is every reason to think that if he isn't dumped before the end of his term, he will at least not be the party's nominee. And it's weird to me that more people aren't acknowledging the reality that they don't want him the Democrats don't want him. So it makes your film Michelle Obama 2024 increasingly more relevant. Yeah, look, people were kind of surprised when Biden released a video of all things to announce he was running for president in 2024. Now I think that video is simply a reaction to the Kennedy name because RFK junior came on the scene. Even though he's more of a libertarian now, just the Kennedy name kind of spooked them. So within a week, they throw up a video of all things. That's not a real campaign announcement. And I think the Democrats don't want Biden clearly. He's got enough investigations going on in the house that for any number of reasons. I do expect Biden in the fall to announce he's not running after all. Now, the person waiting in the wings as I make the case in my film and book Michelle Obama 24 is Michelle Obama because she is the best loved Democrat. She's the most popular person in America, if not the entire world, she said 15 years of all positive publicity, hundreds of magazine covers, hundreds of talk shows. And look at the recent developments. Of course, the Democrats, instead of making Michelle campaign in a hundred counties in Iowa for their first primary, they moved it to South Carolina, which Michelle has claimed in the past as her adopted home state. So that's news that's kind of political stuff. I don't normally get in those weeds. The Democrats have moved their convention, well, the first primary student. I'm sorry. Their first primary state is now South Carolina. South Carolina, when did they make that change? About two months ago, they made the change, claiming that Iowa was not representative enough of America.

Humanitarian Catastrophe Unfolds at Southern Border
"Been being invaded, called a soft invasion, a cold invasion, since Joe Biden took office. That much is clear and what we're about to see unfold at the southern border is a humanitarian catastrophe of epic proportions and it's not funny. It's not there's nothing there's no upside. It simply is the fact, and it's a self inflicted wound. You can see that right now, if you're watching some of the B roll from the border, Joe Biden is sending 1500 troops to the border to basically push paperwork. They're not allowed to interact with migrants, they're not allowed to do any of the actual work that you might associate with border patrol activities, they are just there, I guess, has a PR ploy, and they're being brought in from South Carolina all the way to El Paso, 1500 is not enough to do anything. If you might remember Texas had about 10,000 earlier, and again, 1500 is basically a PR move, nothing's going to happen.

"Is that what it is? I thought it was the cop commander, honestly. And unfortunately, it was not. What did they end up settling on? Well, it was the general for about 48 hours. And then they realized this is a mess. And it all goes back to ray Tanner, who was one of my favorite people in collegiate athletics. Many athletic director at the university of South Carolina for a decade now. And if you'll remember, it was a dinner with ray Tanner, that Mary snelling and Ron bertelli had where they first pitched the idea of a live rooster mascot. No one will give me all the details because the contracts are still being drawn up, but there was some sort of meeting between snelling and albertelli, Beth and van Clark and South Carolina athletic administrators and what they told those two couples were y'all have to sort this out because this is embarrassing. And so an agreement was reached. The details of which have not been revealed because the paperwork is still in the works. The large are still looking into it. They're still trying to figure out all the details. But here's what we know. What we know is that sir big spur of the 7th, when he returned to William Bryce stadium, Labor Day weekend against Georgia state and then again, week three against Georgia. That bird did not have a cone. And so now there are theories out there that cervix for the 7th might actually be the 8th. Oh, wow. Now smelling an Alberta still had roosters that they were raising. So man. The prevailing theory is that the bird that is out there now was actually raised in clips by snowing an albertelli, but is being taken to the stadium by the Clarks. All of us used to say that a large number of south carolinians suspect foul play. It's the easiest pawn that you will ever utter into a microphone promontory. I know. I don't. Ride McGee, as always, thank you for bringing us a story. That was poultry in motion. See, I can't even top that. Because I'm so, I've used every bird pun. I'll possibly have. They're gone.

"So McGee, you were there. You were there in April of this year at the spring game, team Garner versus team black, South Carolina, practicing sir big spur, the 7th, has made his debut and the handlers, the original handlers of this all important rooster are just furious. Because why? What do they seeing? Well, what they saw was that cervix burst 7 had a comb. And I didn't know this full disclosure until I worked on this story, but the comb. Is that floppy, super bright red, fleshy deal that's right on The Crown of the head of most poultry. Yeah, I'm imagining it right now. We've all seen it. It's that little floppy thing on the very top of your skull. If you're a chicken. Yeah, yeah. Well, the Clarks know that the comb is essentially and we'll go back to my race car roots here. It's essentially a radiator. Here's a chickens can't sweat. What you, again, I did not know that until I wrote the story. They don't have the ability to sweat. So that radiator that comb on top of their head, the blood blows through it, radiates heat, cools off and goes back into the body. And that's why the Clark said it's not safe for the bird not to have that. So yeah, it's science is what it is. It is Pablo. Yeah. Wait, so why does this all cause the handlers to say, hey, cluck this? Snowing in albertelli, used to do what they call dubbing, which is they would cut that comb off the top of the head of the roosters that they chose to be cervix spur. So he goes back to and you can imagine my editors when I say, hey, I'd like to go back to March 22nd, 15, 21. In the middle of my story, to slab mask on a corner South Carolina. But it goes back to what they call what Magellan called the archipelago of saint Lazarus. In the kingdom of Thai Thai and your beloved Philippine islands. Of course it does McGee. Of course, we're finally headed here. We're finally headed to cockfighting in the Philippines because I do need people to really understand this. The history, the bloody history of cockfighting, is also the bloody history of the Philippines. My ancestral homeland and I would argue that atop the metal stand to Filipino sporting passions, yes, it is basketball. Yes, it is boxing. But it is also cockfighting. This tradition, this institution that does go back literal centuries. Yeah, so Magellan, during his circumnavigation of the globe, they witnessed this for the first time in their completely blown away. And his assistant who kept a journal of the trip published his journal a couple of years later in Europeans became obsessed with it, particularly in England. And there was actually a how to manual that was written in England about a hundred years later that referred to the bird as the cock of the game, which eventually was shortened to gamecock. That's where it comes from. Yes. They used to cut the comb off of the top of the head of the birds that they would put in the ring. And so in the mind of snowing an Alberta, they thought, that's purest, right? That comb should not be there. No, and that is what dubbing is. It's the process of D combing the head of that bird. And for the record, by the way, we Filipinos also did wind up decimating Magellan as it happened. But to the original handlers of sir big spur. All of this, all of this is the extremely old and unambiguously brutal tradition that is a bird fighting another bird. In the minds of, I guess, which, by the way, is a completely illegal sport in the United States, but in the minds of the hardcore cockfighting crowd. Yeah, that's what you're supposed to do. And their argument was, you know, what are we doing here? They said, we're making a gamecock into a chicken. We're dumbing down the gamecocks. Albert telling particularly snelling went down this road of, you know, we're always talking about changing cultures. What does that mean? You can only change so much and keep your original culture so to them. By removing the comb, you know, you were that's what you actually mean at your tough, right? Right. Now you look sleek, but the reality is, if you go back and look at all of the logos at cocky himself, everywhere you look on the college campus at the university of South Carolina, every rendition of the gamecock has a comb. They're the only ones that didn't have it. And so Snell and Alberta are basically calling here. The university chicken. They're saying, hey, there is no reason to stop embracing this heritage. This violent heritage of cockfighting when it comes to our mascot. This is what we want our mascot to be. And so where does this whole debate go next? It goes down to August 1st of this year. And that is when the latest contract between snelling and albertalli and the universe of South Carolina over the usage of the term, the name cervix spur, that's when that contract expired. And so what albertalli and snelling said was if we don't see a cervix spur out there in public without a comb, then we will not renew the contract and we will keep the name survey spur with us here in akin South Carolina. And so this is where I did begin to notice that something was brewing in South Carolina McGee. Because the name the names potentially to replace their big spur, that all did go viral. It went viral and no one could have seen that possibly kill me. So what happens is, is that David cloninger, longtime South Carolina beat writer at the Charleston post and courier, he writes a story on August 2nd about this whole feud. And that's how everyone learns about it. Everyone in athletic department knew what was coming when Argus first hit, but there were maybe kind of hoping it would stay quiet. And it did not, as soon as that story ran. Well, a couple of weeks later, the state newspaper, Darren Columbia, South Carolina, they decided they're going to write a story just letting everybody know what's going on. And then attached to that, they decide they're going to do an online poll. And they threw ten names out. And said, what do you think? The new name for the South Carolina lab mascot rooster should be. Yep. And there were nice options on there. I like cluck Norris. I thought that's pretty good. Yeah, it's not bad. But there was one that jumped out to everyone, and once Twitter got a hold of one of the options, everyone knew

We check in for the first time with Ryan McGee. You're on the sideline looks like a great turnout. The atmosphere as expected. And they brought the bird out to raucous applause. I mean, thousands of people at this spring football game and no one noticed in those photographs from baseball and softball or that night on live television. None of us noticed anything different about the new bird. But Albert telly and snelling definitely did. And what they said to my friend David cloninger, the Charleston post and courier was, he looks like Barney the barnyard rooster, not a gamecock.

"How at donate NPR dot org. A mystery is shaking people in South Carolina, literally an unusually large number of earthquakes struck the state this year and experts are not sure why. Nick Della canal of member station WFAA takes us to a town close to where many of the quakes have hit. David horne sits on his front port cooling under a fan. You can often find him on his porch, it's where he was last December 27th. That was the date the first earthquake hit the town of Elgin, where he lives, about 25 miles east of Columbia. I was sitting on the porch when the first one hit. This porch. Yes, on this porch right here. My wife was inside with one of the grandchildren. He remembers sudden shaking and annoys like thunder, booming across the sky. And as soon as it happened, I got out of my chair, and I went and told her, I said, that was an earthquake. I said, that was a three point plus. Horn used to live in Alaska where earthquakes are more common. His wife Whitney, a lifelong south carolinian, wasn't sure what was going on. Because I'd never experienced an earthquake. We're in South Carolina. You don't have a quite such you feel in South Carolina. Sure enough, it was a 3.3 magnitude earthquake. Two small to cause damage, but big enough to light up the town's Facebook page with dozens of excited comments. David said, at first, he thought it was cool. Wow, an earthquake. I've heard there was a big fault line near here. Man, that's all I thought about it. Until the ground continued to shake. Days and months after that first quake, the ground would rumble while the horns were out shopping, or at night while in bed. Ah, there's an earthquake. And the ground continues to move on to their feet. I mean, literally it seems like we have an earthquake every week. It's not even a surprise anymore. The U.S. geological survey has recorded more than 60 small earthquakes near the town since December. The largest of 3.6 rumbled through in June. All the shaking has fascinated geologists who say this is the longest running series of earthquakes in recent South Carolina history. Scott Howard is South Carolina state geologist, he says this is what's known as a swarm that is a series of small earthquakes with no apparent main shock. Two, three, one, two, you know, it just kind of bounces up and down. South Carolina is on a minor fault line, he says, and the state has had swarms before. They traced a series of small earthquakes in the 1970s to the creation of a new reservoir. Water and fluids tend to be always involved in faulty. This time, there's no clear explanation. Howard says it's possible heavy rain may have played a role early in the year, but it's hard to know for sure. Residents fear the swarms are building up to a big earthquake, seismologists say that's unlikely. Still, emergency officials have told people to look into earthquake insurance. And some have, like Phil Crowley, he moved to Elgin a year ago. You know, what can we control? We can control getting insurance. Really? That's about it. There have been no reports of major damage so far, but the earthquakes keep coming. Crowley and his wife don't think a big one will hit, but they worry. She'll look at me when we're going to sleep. Hope it's not going to happen tonight. If it does, they're ready. They keep two bags packed with clothes and other essentials sitting by their front door, just in case. For NPR news, I'm Nick Della canal in Elgin, South Carolina..

She just ended the welcome back celebration. At the Columbia South Carolina, we'll talk to her shortly. More of your phone calls right now. Larry is an Oklahoma hello, Larry. Hello, Paul. First time caller here, sir. Well, thank you. I was recently I wonder if you could confirm or deny this rumor. I was on YouTube and when it come across the podcast of a guy I was saying, Texas was having second thoughts about coming to SEC and possibly bringing Nebraska back to the big 12 because they didn't want to lose their power. Have you heard anything about that? What was the source of this podcast or YouTube channel? It was the big blue dude or go blue dude. Thank you from West Virginia. I'm not sure. Okay. Larry, that's first I've heard of that. I would be more than shocked if that were true. I was too, but I just got me. You got me curious. I didn't know, you know? I mean, I can not imagine Nebraska. Doing that right now. And I certainly can not imagine Texas doing it. Yeah, as black said, I just started spending when I come across that podcast. So I was just curious, you know? I don't know. I mean, I don't know what the guy knows or what he says, but I will take a rare flyer that we know more here than he knows. Whoever he is. Let's talk to Joe in South Carolina. Hello, Joe. Hello, mister Paul. How you doing today? Joe, we are doing great. Thank you. Yeah, we are two down here. I'm going to tell you right now. I want to get out of Big Mac to John and Louisville. You know, our game cops, man. They put everything on them with the fries. I think Don stylish he's done wonderful since she's been here to us and I know the guy said wanted to take her and put her in the NBA and hear as a president. We don't need her to NBA. Listen, the girls, man, congratulations. Aaliyah, destiny, and she was awesome yesterday. Wasn't she? I mean, they were going off. And I dominating a game, especially early on as anyone has seen all year. Hey, thank you very much. And we'll talk to her in just a few minutes. Thank you for the call. Let's check in with James, who is up next in Kentucky. Hello, James. Oh, Paula, how are you doing today? Very well. Thank you. I just had a question that sounds simple, but really it's not. How does John cow pare get the Kentucky fan base back? Well, I don't think that would be difficult. Kentucky fans will be there next November when the cats start playing again. I think the bigger question is if this trend continues, does it affect him in other areas, especially recruiting because you just have to take a look around and North Carolina do both with brand new coaches, hot programs like Arkansas, which is killing it in recruiting Alabama, Tennessee is a solid as any program in the country. On top of everything that everything else around and is Kentucky, a destination point tomorrow as much as it was ten years ago when ten years ago on this Monday night, Kentucky won its last national championship. Are you there? Yes. Okay, sorry, Beth. Do you think you realize a little bit too much on the one and dones? No, I mean, I think this year is a perfect outlier to that when he went out, but she weigh in from West Virginia. He brought another great player. I think up from Georgia. So you don't have to, in the era of the transfer portal, the one and done, the one in Johns are not the only the only option. So you can't turn them down, assuming that they're even coming. There are even passing on pro basketball. The developmental league, but I think he just, there's no excuse for losing this year. I know some people say, well, maybe Saint Peter's going to the elite 8, mitigated the Kentucky game, not to me it didn't. You know, Kentucky, if humor Davis can coach an 8 seed to the final four, why can't John calipari coach a two seat? I know he coached an 8 seat in 2014 to the championship game. Like Davis is doing tonight, but you just have to you have to win in March. You can have all the big tournament get wins in The Bahamas and Hawaii and everywhere else in November in December. It's not going to help you if you get blown out. Like he did. And I don't mean blowing out. I mean, there's just no getting around that loss. Tanner is up next in Texas, a hello Tanner. April how are you doing? Tanner, we are doing great. Good. Hey, I had a question about, oh, you football. What do you think our biggest hurdle will be once we join the SEC? Well, I think the biggest hurdle comes right now. How does this transformation work? And I know, I know the people that cover the program have been very upbeat. But I have to see what the venerables administration looks like. I know they've got good coaches out there. They've taken them from a lot of important places. Including SEC schools, I know, but look at what left that program with Lincoln Riley. And can he do it? I would say right now, the optimism is pretty high, but that doesn't mean anything when it gets to reality of can he take this program to the elite status and by the time they get to the SEC and two or three years, they should be in good shape, but I'm more concerned about this season than I am three years from now. You and me both hopefully we can win the big 12 and get back on track. Thanks, Paul appreciate it. Thank you. And I don't want to rain on the venerables parade. But I'm somewhat of a doubter. And I know there was it was easy to criticize Lincoln Riley. Oh, he never could win the big game. He never could do this, but Lincoln Raleigh developed players. He had a couple of Heisman winners. He had a couple of,.

What's the secret to a lot of people? 90 years old. Yeah. Well, just live good and exercise. I got a bowflex. I worked out with our admin bicycle and a walk. And I do it all. You still work out every day, gene? At 90? Yeah. Yeah. In my garage, yeah. What else do you do? I need to keep fit. Got wrapped in bicycle and go to church on Sunday. Try to be a good fella. You don't want to leave a rock. You may have going to church might be the secret. It is. You said that's on Sunday, right? Right. Okay. Have you ever signed it? Did it get any transfers, Tennessee? I think they got a couple, but they're going to, in my opinion, they are going to need a few more. I think they're in good shape. They got hooker coming back as you probably know. But ultimately Jane, I think this program has turned the corner. And that's the most important thing. John is up next. A hello, John. Hey, Paul, how you doing, buddy? I buffalo, a buffalo mate. Brother, you said dukey on the airways. Did you watch caddyshack? Yeah, I did. I'm trying to remember the dookie reference. The dookie, yeah, they threw a snicker bar in the pool. And they thought it was a spooky. Okay, maybe buffalo my class would take. 40 years ago? I don't know, but I've watched it many times. It's a riot. I forgot, I forgot the dookie reference. Well, you know what? They kind of threw a dookie on the court the other night at the end of the game. Okay, but I'm gonna leave a word. John, I just, I don't expect when my sushi is leading the game with 35 seconds to go. And he's in the national semifinal against his rival. I expect him to win, don't you? I would think so, but I'll be honest. I'm not a basketball fan. No way. I didn't watch it. I didn't watch any of it. I'm happy for him. You know, I'm happy with my episode of being upset about it after the game, I said, you know what? He's a duke. Hey, thanks for the call. That's funny. I mean, I don't know. I mean, I just started thinking of, and by the way, I realized it's a great accomplishment to make it to the final four. But can you imagine just think about this for a second? Nick Saban, he announced he is going to retire. He's undefeated, number one in the country. Final home game, everybody shows up, okay? Everyone. One versus three, let's say it's a one versus four game. You got auburn in there. Sabin loses his last home game. Too Brian Harrison. Okay. Auburn's good enough that they still get in the playoffs because they beat the number one team. So here's the deal. Maybe auburn goes to the maybe auburn plays for the SEC championship and wins. That's how they get in the playoff. So auburn and Alabama meet again in the semifinals. In Brian harsh and beat Saban again now, you could look at it two different ways. Well, Nick Saban made the final four his final game, his final year, or he ended his career losing twice to Brian. What's worse? Now, that better happened quickly based on which Brian is doing at auburn, but maybe he'll get through it. Well, thank you, sure, Brian. Back with more.

Hey, how you doing, Paul? Got a question for you. Dogs daily has had an incredible year here with the Olympics and now her second national championship. Do you think that she would be successful at crossing that barrier and be in the first woman to lead an NBA franchise? Absolutely. And the reason is her competitive nature. And I think all coaches have some have it two different degrees. And I think she is as competitive of an individual as I've ever seen. And I think you look back over her life and career. I mean, she was a deadly player. She's the same as a coach. And I think that that would travel pretty well, even to the NBA.

And on top of that, which is amazing, ally made a substantial contribution to support the players fund, which assists current and former players facing financial hardships. Two great examples of why we're all better off with an ally. To learn more about ally, visit ally dot com. Hey there, I'm Julie foudy from the podcast laughter permitted.

It didn't work Friday. Blue Devils. Calling you to inhale. I'm so sorry. I mean, you know what? Well, when duke loses, I just feel like the whole world should hang their head in sorrow and be mournful and say a private prayer or cottage because it's just so upsetting. You feel the same way, Randy? I don't think I'll ever be able to sleep again the coach Kay lost his last game to North Carolina. I'm sorry. I'm just now leaving the house. He loves us now. I don't mean to jump on the dead here. The guy loses his last game at home to Carolina, then he loses his last game period. And we're talking about a terrible Carol. I mean, this is a name seed. Dean Smith would roll over in his grave thinking about how bad this team is. I'm sorry. Randy helped me out here. Okay, I lost it. I rarely lose it. But spit up my lunch when do you want us to feel sorry for you? A little bit, yes. No, we're not going to. We're laughing at you. And hopefully we'll win tonight. So you have to see that every day of the week. And when you go out now. When those Carolina fans. And by the way, I live near a couple of Carolina fans. They will laugh at you. They will sneer at you. They will spit on you. This didn't help, like I thought it would. I'm going by. We ran off a dookie. I feel good. What about you? Oh, absolutely. Now, I don't want to take anything away from coach Kay's career. Do you, Randy? I mean, we have not heard enough about this guy for the last 13 months since he announced his farewell tour. Yeah. The eagles haven't had as long a farewell tour as Mike's kid. Elton John hasn't had as long a farewell tour as Mike shizi. The role, yeah, The Rolling Stones have had.

Well, that's a competition. They did well. Tennessee had a good recruiting class.

So to our leadership to president pastides to our boss man, ray Tanner, for putting women on a pedestal and treating us like the sport that we are and in return.

That's a colonial arena as the gamecocks are have landed from Minneapolis to 2022 national champs, the second one in 5 years for dawn staley and this one was dominating over Gina arima and of course Yukon in an epic final four for dawn and her ladies. They're celebrating everywhere, but especially in Colombia today. And we will go there live in just a few minutes as that unfolds. They were wired a wire number one at the beginning of the remember they beat Yukon in a November tournament. They were supposed to play them again in Columbia that game had to be postponed when Ole miss lost a game. But they got them again in the game that mattered the final game of the women's season. It was this unbelievable to watch the reaction today has been epic from Friends of the program, such as Darius Rucker, to the former president, Barack Obama, everyone has chimed in on what may have been one of the sweetest wins of dawn staley's career. We will hear from her in just a few minutes. A lot of other things to discuss. Especially on the football front, spring games are starting this weekend. They've already started a couple of places and auburn will get a good look at them on Saturday, especially at the quarterback situation. Calzada, not part of the activities, but he could figure in loud and large when we get to the fall. TJ Finley was the main man in the iron bowl as auburn almost pulled that one back other than that. A lot of inexperience on the QB roster. This is one of the biggest surprises of the first season. His rookie year at Tennessee. Things are looking up on rocky top as well. And kiffin always in the news. They're spring game is still a few weeks away. But he continues to look deep and be rewarded as part of the transfer portal. And in Augusta, Tiger has landed, but will he play. There is a pretty healthy debate over that. He practiced yesterday on the course today. We'll talk later in the program on whether the biggest name in the world will compete. Dawn staley joining us shortly, the celebration beginning any moment and we will carry some of it for you live or Jim cavell on NIL, Dan orlowski on the draft. That's only three and a half weeks away. Matt berry live from Augusta. Refers to your phone calls. And we certainly look forward to hearing from all of you here. At 855-242-7285.

John starts it off for us in Louisville. Hey, John. John, you there? It's always a tough start when you go to yeah, I'm here. I'm here. Well, good. You're on the air. Hey, good afternoon. And yeah, that's the end of the coach K career. And really, but I never learned to say his name, let alone spell it, did you? It took me a long time, but you just have to forget what it looks like in. And I would say coach Gino is now the John kelleria woman's basketball. Yes, one anything in 7 years, right? Yeah, 11 national championships in a row and he's a loser again. So. Yeah, I give him credit. His team probably overachieve this year, but when you don't win the title and you've won as many as he has, it starts to look pretty chintzy. Speaking of losers, what's optic. Somebody wearing hip waders yelling in the phone by the side of the road or someone ordering food at McDonald's. You know, I'm partial to people that order food at McDonald's since that has been me many times in my life. Okay. And I miss Jim. I hope the happy gym comes back. As far as Buckeye Brutus, we don't need them right now. Randy is up next. Good afternoon, Randy. Hey, Paul, how are you? Very well. I need to ask you, how is the Gators bask on football team recruiting going to be? The next. I think the basketball would be impossible to make a really strong prediction on. They just barely have a new coach in there. Football is looking good. I think for the most part, the football part of it has been strengthened. By Billy Napier and I think, for the most part, they're really upbeat. Now, the question, I think, for them, is can they overcome they have a long way to do to go to be competitive again? And I think that's something that they have to deal with. I mentioned we were heading to Columbia in just a few minutes. That celebration is set to begin shortly. We will carry it when we come back.

"Looked like a Leah Boston would have been found in that situation. So we're going to call it, but I'm talking two to three times. I think this is a problem is if you let the game be in 8 to 14 point game the whole way, you really hurts your argument if you want to pin it on like, well, we got some unfavorable stuff far away. You got fans. I've seen a lot of them on Twitter. They're talking fairly positively about the season. Obviously, disappointed tonight's outcome. But I really haven't seen any griping over like that one call. Oh yeah, I don't know that there's necessarily, but that's one of the few disparities on the statutes that you look at. You're like, oh buddy, but I think a lot of it is because South Carolina was able to have very, very efficient movement, getting to the basket getting and scoring position is very well that I think getting to the line would come naturally. Yukon was able to get the amount of times Yukon's possessions were flummoxed within the first ten seconds of possession was shockingly frequent. Yeah. Like not even on the turnover range, but just on like, I mean, pretty bad. Look at how often they either just breaking down. They go to try and do something, and it's like, well, or having to just rush shots because in their head, they're like, this is the only time this whole count we're going to be open. It's something in the air. Yeah, and yeah, they've got to run something and either that where they would just be like, well, we got a decent look, let's take a shot or South Carolina just being like, no, you're not going to do that. We're not going to let you run there. Anytime they thought it likes to run in transition sometimes, they really like to run deep passing the inbounds plays when it feels like South Carolina, it's a big three strike right back. That's how they did Stanford a couple of times and it really worked for them. Well, as a team, the gamecocks are back on defense every time down the floor. It's not just Boston, it's not just every time. And Logan all over was literally tracking that through the night. But every time you come up the court, like it was impossible for Yukon to get a break down the court. Yeah, every time they would inbound it near half cores like, oh, maybe they get an easy bucket here. No easy buckets in this game for Yukon. I mean, there was no, I think the kind of the last thing image for me of the Yukon Stanford game was wouldn't look kind of within question like 5 point game page got the steel drove up the court who got an easy to from up 7 and it felt like I don't think they're going to think they're going to do it. There's nothing like that in this.

"If you're taking a shot that the other team wants you to take, you shouldn't be taking that shot just at least at this stage. Especially not earlier the shot clock. That doesn't stop talking to you, and you gotta get something off. But yeah, exactly. I think Stanford took a lot of shots that you probably would like them to take. And then they took a lot of shots that they do like to take to, especially other threes. They are good through what should you do, but they just could not hit them yesterday. I don't think that was all you constitutions. I think that was a lot of Stanford, just not having their night. Now, sometimes there's just how basketball goes, the shooting, you know, the shooting variance is just, you can never predict this sometimes. Sometimes really bad shooting teams come out and light it up and sometimes the opposite happens. And that's why I have last night exactly. So that's what happened last night. Looking ahead to Sunday, like we said, we've got a South Carolina national championship game. To me, it's like South Carolina has the better court we have also obviously you caught has the better guard to 85 page backers across the Williams, probably the best back of the country when fully healthy. And those two things are going to help sign up. I think what comes down to is you court better or South Carolina's guards better. Yeah, and I think not only better, but I think the key is deeper. And I think South Carolina's front court depth compared to UConn, especially now without dorka, is a lot bigger advantage than maybe the backcourt depth of Yukon versus South Carolina. I think Yukon has more talent in the back court for sure, but I don't know if you guys back where it is as deep as South Carolina's front court. I feel like in a way it is that Evita was plays like she did last night and she had those huge big 30s for UConn. Do you have her off the veggie or meeting you off the batch and Caroline Duchamp did it really do much for you, but she also did do anything wrong when she gave it to the game either. So they still do have a fair amount of depth in the backcourt, but I think he puts front court depth has got to be the biggest problem here. They're big, got to define trouble against Stanford without Stanford relativity. And they picked up a lot of those. I'll be offensive though. They can't be setting illegal screens going into this game. I'm picking up fouls that they really don't need to be picking up. Early on in the game because if you can't have Olivia knows my daughter and we are on the floor together for most of this game, I think it's going to be pretty difficult. Yeah, and you know, I mean, you're right, you kind of have a lot of talent in the backcourt off the bench too, but it's interesting because of their front court is so thin at this point. Avena Westbrook is almost a pseudo threat court. For like half of her minutes stretches at the fore, which sort of in things out one, two, three spots. So it's just kind of a domino effect, but you're right. I think the fouls are going to be a huge thing. I think we talked about this. Going into the final four game, like they have two true bigs, they're both file prone, one of them fouled out the other one almost did in the prior game against NC state. Will that happen against Stanford? And then it didn't because Stanford settled for three. But South Carolina is not going to settle for threes. That is we can bet on that. So if you want to win this game, their posts are going to have to stay out of foul trouble while actually guarding the post, which they didn't have to do a whole lot of against Stanford compared to what they're going to have to do tomorrow. Yeah, exactly. I think that starts with you, I'm not putting them on the offensive value because you can't have that sort of too big of a mistake in that game. And then yeah, finding way to guard only of Boston without falling. And I think the thing is too, is she's going to hit a fruit though. So sometimes it's better to let her have the basket when you pick up a foul. And they've got to be smart about that. Right. That's the thing when you have a big back down your free throws, it's really you're going to get two points either way. You really really got to let it go sometimes, but you're right. You get ten, maybe 8000 between those two, if you want to stay on the court. You have to use all 8 of those on defense. Right. You can't have them. They're going to call that every time you can not happen. And you also have to use all 8 of those specifically, I would say around the rim too. You can't be fouling on a hedge or something, even if it's on leaf and even 30 feet from the basket. You have to use every foul for both of those players in the restricted arc I would say. Yeah, I would agree with that. I think that's going to be key. And then if we are South Carolina, I think you need to see hundreds of play while again and hit their shots because if you can slack off on the perimeter on them because they're not hitting shots or you come pretty good at permanent defense if they can lock them down and only Boston China has to do everything. South Carolina's could get themselves in trouble with the fact that, yes, South Carolina's defense is very good, but Yukon's offense has gotten much better. They can score from one point for systems on the floor. So they're going to find a way to score boards. Yeah, and they'll lead to you because we did see this matchup earlier this year. It was supposed to be twice. We saw it once, and Yukon was a healthy newcomer, by the way. It was helped to three points in the fourth quarter of that one. So that definitely can happen. Exactly. I'll say healthy because it's not healthy. That makes a big difference. 80% of their games this year. Yes, yes. But yeah, I think we've seen 85 be a very big part of the student that the strategy that was a non factor in that game. But yeah, I mean, I think this is a much better plan of that game. You can hear this. That was pre pages and drew that was like a page factory school do it. And if she doesn't, we don't know how we're going to win a game. You come to him and I think they're strides beyond that, but I mean South Carolina, of course, it's also gotten better throughout the season. So I think it's good for you kind of a way that that game was close. Minus that fourth quarter mall tonsil, like they know a lot of they don't melt down a fourth quarter. They can go this game. But it's going to be a tough challenge I think the way we've also been so done with it is here that it's going to be really tough to win that game with a different report. I think if we were talking about the ccar team with Dorothy Haas also coming off the bench out would be a lot more like, well, you can see how they have the depth the guards are better guards with championships. The front point that that's going to be really difficult. Definitely. And if you know front court depth does get tested with foul travel or whatever else, the only way they're going to win this game at that point, I think, is if they're able to sort of attack mismatches and maybe drive when South Carolina has those too big, you know, whoever's at the four is like 6 5 and you have a vina Westbrook at the four or whoever else for UConn. You're going to have to find a way to take advantage of that. And I think because you're going to have to play a lot smaller than South Carolina. I mean, really for the whole game. But a lot, a lot smaller for at least 5, ten minutes of this game. And so you're going to have to find a way to cancel out probably the rebounding advantage that South Carolina is going to have there with taking advantage of your own mismatches on the offensive end. Yeah, I think part of that for your country has to probably be hitting three as they don't shoot that great for three last night, but it's like easy fun can go off or someone can get really hot from three that will help them a lot and especially kind of South Carolina. It's not a huge three point shooting team. It gives you that extra point a reposition of if you can get some to get knocked down. Yeah, if you can trade two for three. Yeah. Obviously. Those are our hot takes. You make threes that usually works at your favorite. But I think the other thing, like you said, the rebounding is going to be huge..

"You have to have the personnel to execute that kind of scheme as well. So while it looks pretty, you know, like I could look at a recipe and you know, and I'm speaking really organically right now on genuinely you know and I see a picture of it on the Internet or something and I make it and it's not quite. Okay, so I think that goes the same way with what you see with basketball. It's like, that's a great idea. But do you have the players who can operate in that kind of a system and make it work just like that? That's the real question of the situation. And I think yes, while it looks nice and maybe fool's gold, you know, if you don't back it up with who you have. So going with what you said about South Carolina, not being on their a game, I don't think that's going to happen with them anymore, the rest of the season. Like you said, I think it's going to make them stronger. But I think they were off their game that thing. And that's no slight, okay? Missouri beat the you got them. You won. You guys are on the ground and that shot went in. The whole bunch. All 7 of you. I know, but they're all 7. Coaches were wearing a squat and laid out on the ground. It was an exciting moment, and I don't want to take anything away from that moment because it was huge. But at the same time, South Carolina overwhelmingly stayed at number one in the AP poll. Rightfully so. Rightfully so. And, you know, it was hard not to be not going to slide them down to like 11 or something because they lost to unranked team. Are you? Are people surprised? Do you think people are surprised at South Carolina on ranked team and stayed number one? I'm surprised I lost them. I'm wearing team. I'm not surprised to stay number one. Yeah, I'm not surprised anymore. Well, it's also you look at you look at the other teams around them and well, they just beat Stanford, right? So okay, we can't put Stanford above them. Louisville, we'll get to Louisville in a second. They didn't look impressive enough against the rank team in Georgia Tech or at all of the season at all the season to have you put them number one. And then you have pretty much everyone else. Is a team that South Carolina beat at some point, right? I don't think Arizona belongs in the top four. That's I don't think that's right. But NC state they beat, in the end, they'd be. They're going to be, they're going to be Tennessee at some point. They beat Maryland. They beat UConn. It's like any team you even want to consider up there. It's not close. So I'd still think they should be number one and they deserve the unanimous point. But it is shocking, it was I was watching that game. Capital kept waiting for right for the shoot to fall off. I'm saying. You can't wait for Cinderella to leave the ball. They kept killing him and back to the Sophie Cunningham and you're like, at some point, we're going to pan the Soviet Cunningham. She's going to be upset. And he wants it. It just never happened. And then Lauren Hansen. By that point, by that point by the Laura Harrison shot, I was like, it has to happen. There's team in it too long for the not to win this game and of course she comes up huge with a ridiculous little scoop shot over paint two or three all Americans. That was shocking. But yeah, I definitely don't think they should do. I don't see how they're going to fall off from number one without at least two more losses to be honest. Yeah, I agree with that. And like you said, they've already played just about everybody underneath them in the top ten. Just about everybody. And I mean, now you contact out of the top ten, but they haven't played, you know, because they're in COVID protocol. So they haven't been playing. And I just thought that their game against Villanova is also a postpone. So they have a lot of rescheduling to do, but you know, they were banged up anyway before the COVID situation, but you know, you just can't reason them lower than number one. Even with that loss, and I agree with that. And that's, you know, and I had to do the voting. I was like, I get it that they lost, but I just, I can't move them. I can't do it. Didn't do it. And I wasn't alone. Apparently. Are we going to should we go through your votes? Now we're not going to do that to you this week. Oh, I mean, I think I was, I think I was pretty on par with everyone. Wasn't I? I have not. I'm sorry with the overall vote, I think. I was able to check your vote. All right, let's see. Okay, double check it. South Carolina, Stanford, Louisville. We can have a debate on Arizona at some point. Okay. NC state Indiana, Tennessee, Michigan, Maryland, Texas. I think you have actually nowhere mailing is at the moment. But it's about ten. Yeah, it's about the same. It's about the same. Yeah, it's very similar. And then you kind of hadn't played so it's like you can't move the team. There were so many teams that hadn't played. Yeah. So it was like really hard to move this week in particular because, you know, unfortunately, this people are calling it the Omarion. All right, so I heard all the radio. That's not mine. I can't claim it. But for our white listeners, I'm sure I've brought this up to like 8 white people and none of them know who are Mario and this I'm like, why do you guys do it? No one watch you that serve. No one else. I was, I don't know, on the way somewhere in the car heard on the radio and was laughing hysterically by myself because you know sometimes you have to laugh to keep them crying. It's really sad that this is going on and I get it, but that took me over the edge and kind of lightened the move for a moment about everything. But I mean, this is just, I just hope that the season can continue. Gabe, it's so scary. And with all these games being postponed and all that, it's just, oh my gosh, I hope they find time to play them all back because there's some really great games that we're missing, you know, with these causes in these programs. And I mean, and again, I think there are probably of the 25 teams. I would say half of them hadn't played. Or close to half. They're probably played for this week. And it really made it difficult because some teams played three games. And it's also like at the combo COVID and Christmas. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah. People are playing. So.

"I do like that AI comparison. I would say it's AI in college, though, more. Philly, Philly. I was thinking. It kind of looked like AI at Georgetown, where it was just that defense, those little pokes. Yeah, she had so many of those little posting South Carolina in general really caught Stanford because the Princeton offense is methodical. It is the same thing. Every single place Stanford runs comes from almost the same set. There's different variations, obviously, but it's almost the same movement every time. So it requires patience in South Carolina what they did in the second half led by destiny Henderson was start poking the ball. So you can just stand there in the high poster, even at the three point line because that ball was coming out. So they enforced Stanford to make decisions faster. It forced them into turnovers, Stanford ended up with 20 turnovers and then it just kind of came up in the offensive end for South Carolina and they pulled away in this game. And I think that I think henny was a huge part of that. Latisse me here as well. I want to show her because she took over guarding guarding Lexi hall for a little bit. She pretty much everyone on the roster for Stanford. I just thought her defensive versatility was really incredible. And that's just a play on the bench for this team. It's like they're off the bench to bring camillo cardosa who's 7 foot like she's not. She played 6 minutes because they just have too many options. They have too many options and I'm just so impressed constantly by the South Carolina team. You look at the season they're putting together already, wins against a number 5 NC state number 9 Oregon. Number two, Yukon. We've already talked about those three since the last time we recorded their last three games. Wins against number 8, Maryland, number 15 duke and number two Stanford. I guess the question though, the question for me is this team gonna go undefeated because I know the SEC is a great conference, but the rest of the schedule looks really, really easy by comparison. I'm in just the way that they fall back. I mean, that motor that that team had and Don staley at the helm. And she saluted the fams she calls the bands the fams. She saluted the fans there after the game and I mean, it was just a great atmosphere, and I think, you know, the SEC like you said, it is definitely tough. I mean Georgia beat NC state. So these are teams that are going to be going for it during their conference battles, but when it comes down to the end in February, when we're preparing and talking about NCAA tournament, who do you think is going to win it? And I know that's fast forwarding. Today Gabe, I am calling it and we can hold this recording. I'm calling it that South Carolina is the FrontRunner right now right now to win it all. At the end of the season. I'll go a step further. I'd be shocked. Not surprised. I'd be shocked if this team does not complete the job. Injuries can happen. But they didn't have destiny under three weeks and they'd be three top 15 teams, you know? And I'd be shocked. I'm gonna go step further and say, I will be shocked if this team does not win the championship because of all the things they got going on and frankly they could even falter in the SEC schedule. And there'll still be a one seed. They have well how many SS did 6 wins against top 15 opponents? And it's not even new year's yet. It's December 22nd. That's incredible. That's incredible. That's incredible basketball team. Yeah, I don't know how many more things I have to say about them because I know we're going to have to come up with some things. We were talking about South Carolina all year. But this seems great. The only set I want to hear if you're concerned about this, like, Zack cook, one for 9. She's had some games where it's up and down. You know, sometimes I'm like, oh, this player is like the best player. You know, this is one of the best players in the country. Like the person I want to take in the last shot and then other games like this, I'm a little worried about her. Are you any concerned about Zai cook? I think she has to be consistent. You know, we know that she's good. We know that, you know, she is one of the Staples to what South Carolina likes to do on offense and defense for that matter. And so I just think it's consistency that is, you know, ringing in my head, can you night in and night out be that player that we know you are? And I'm sure Don Stanley has had that conversation with her watching film and whatnot. And I'm not sure what it is that is taking her out of her rhythm or out of her routine or what she likes to do on the floor. And it's hard. Like you said, there are so many players on this team that can kill you if you try to shut down another. And I think this is a great example of that. And while cook had not been producing her typical numbers and.

"Looking. They just kind of have like a similar posture her camera like they do have a similar imposture and seem to bring in an interesting energy. To that group. And we obviously could talk about Maryland all day. But we should stop at some point because we have a lot of time to talk about this team. I think they're going to big heights. And where is he? We're going to know a lot more about them by the end of the week. Yes. Or not, depending how you feel about these injuries. So we'll see where they are though. I think they got a great coach. I will see them in March, be the team that they are, but if they can come through this stretch here without two huge players to them and possibly a third without diamond, we're talking about the best team in the country, rather than one of them. I didn't want to mention Baylor just really quick, as I mentioned, Jordan Lewis and Sarah Andrews really impressed me. Melissa Smith excellent, as you mentioned, there's like 8 scouts from the WNBA there. And they were there. Hey, there's a lot of great players on the floor. They were all there for the show. They all came for the show. And queen agbo is nice. I think they're, you know, first off, they're getting reset new system. And second off, I just think there's kind of it's not the perfect mix for winning in March. And we'll see but I think they certainly have a chance in the big 12, and I think that Texas bailout game this year is probably going to decide where what's going to happen to them. And I'm looking at their schedule now just to make sure there's not any other huge games that have Michigan on the 19th of December. I don't know what kind of torment that is. Maybe your cat knows that. I know. I was Dewey's having seen a song, sorry about that. So yeah, they have Michigan, the Michigan's obviously going to be a huge game, but they have some time to figure it out. But did you see anything from Baylor that that should make me a little bit more confident of what their mix is going to be when it comes to march? Yeah, I think they're still ironing some things out under Nikki Collin and what she brings. I mean, she's one of those basketball supplants, Gabe who studies the game. I was learning. I was taking notes talking to her, you know, prior to the Marilyn Baylor game just on her philosophies on defense in particular and some of the reads on pick and rolls and what they call it and why they call it that. I mean, honestly, had like the actual notes. And I was asking her questions. I was like, okay, the game is coming up, but tell me again on the spectacle. And they're like, what is that called? And she was telling me all this stuff. And it was really fun, but she's just one of those people that breathes and lives the game. And I just love talking to her. And I love that she's taking this challenge of going to a team that has won three national titles and a perennial tournament winner in the big 12. So you know, for them coming into the Maryland game, I know the last 5 years. They have led the country and defensive efficiency. And I know that that's going to take some time to get back to because yes, you have two of your starters back from last year's deep postseason run. But at the same time, you have a new coach that's coming in with a new way, a couple of new words, terminologies are a little bit different. So I think it's just going to take them some time to iron out what Nikki Collin expects from them, but boy, what we saw on Sunday was pretty darn good because oh my gosh, absolutely. And I think, you know, they're missing three starters from last year's team and they still came in seamlessly. Under new direction, you know, less than ten games into the regular season. So I still think it's hard to quantify what they're going to look like. But I think the sky's the limit just because of what they look like against Maryland and the adjustments in game that they were able to make and they made a strong run at the end. And it was just tremendous game. So I'm excited to see what Baylor continues to look like moving forward because it's not just about Melissa Smith. I mean, they have balance. They have three point shots. I know Brenda free says this is the most in terms of volume of threes that we've seen from a Baylor team in a long time. So I think you're going to see some really good inside outside balance from Baylor this year. We've seen a lot of inside prowess over the years for that program, but I think now you're going to see a little bit of both. Yeah, no, it's going to be really interesting. It's also like Nikkie Collins getting used to the college game. I think I'll remember if you were Sloan said it, but she had mentioned that she had rarely seen zones in WNBA. And now it pretty much every game in college you're seeing it, you're having a zone thrown at you. And so those types of adjustments take time, not just for the players, but for the coaches. So I'm sure they'll look better. Just a little concerned about just how much is around Melissa Smith because you're right, it's not just about her, and Jordan was awesome, as I was saying, but just kind of, you know, how can you get the ball down to your are you taking good threes? Are you able to get those stops when you need it? Like, it has to come together for me first before I believe in the steeler team being like a national title contender. But certainly the talents there certainly the coach is good and certainly they have way more potential right now to get better because it gets all those things we mentioned. You want to talk about South Carolina. You can't do. I do. I do want to mention any other podcast on women's basketball starts off as South Carolina you come. Not this one. That's right. The talking Maryland, whatever. Let's get stuff going. Because we were courtside for the Maryland game. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, also, it's very predictable on our podcast that we would talk about Maryland first. Where do you be friend DMV folks, but this game was awesome. 73 57 South Carolina wins, they hold Yukon to three, one, two, three points. In the fourth quarter, as the lowest point total, we have recorded in D one this year. I believe I forget what our stat was. I will look it up as we were talking. But wow, wow. I mean, you know, I.
