Ben CriddleHOST
My biggest concern is more so than anything is that This game, and I'm not saying you have to treat games always differently, but when it's your first test, true test, of the season, my concern is that we've been operational.
Ben CriddleHOST
in our approach rather than obsessed with our approach this season because of hey we're going to focus on our process and that typically is good it's the John Wooden approach the John Wooden approach at UCLA was like we focus on ourselves we don't focus on the opponent There's a lot of virtue in that.
Ben CriddleHOST
But remember, John Wooden also had the greatest talents ever to come through college basketball during that time.
Ben CriddleHOST
So it's really easy to just focus on yourself and the fundamentals and execution of your schemes when you're just more talented than everybody else.
Ben CriddleHOST
Is BYU really talented this year? Yeah, I think there's more talent at BYU than there's been in a long time.
Gee ScottGUEST
And whatever it is that you do, do it right.
Gee ScottGUEST
And when you continue to do that, it reminds me of what John Wooden's saying was, Everything happens the way it's supposed to, not necessarily how you want to.
Gee ScottGUEST
I'd imagine that the Seahawks did not want to be down 7-0 at halftime.

Mark PattisonGUEST
Why not, right? You keep going.
Mark PattisonGUEST
But again, I kind of feel like so much of my life has been built around this whole pyramid of success, which Don James taught me, which he stole from John Wooden, the old basketball coach.
Mark PattisonGUEST
And, you know, again, I'm kind of at the bottom, but once you set those goals, at the top of that pyramid is something called pyra- uh, uh, competitive greatness.
Mark PattisonGUEST
And so that competitive greatness to me is loving the process.

Doug LisleHOST
Should a girl go for a good, solid guy she finds a bit ho-hum, but she thinks would make a good father and provider? Or should she go for the guy who is more exciting and less predictable? Should a parent do everything they can to get their kids to achieve their maximum potential, or should they just let their kids find their own way and not worry much about it? And speaking of the kids, should unhappy partners stay married for the kids' sake, or will everyone wind up fine if people move on and look for a new start? Should we follow our hearts and dreams when it comes to our careers, or should we be thinking more practically and make sure we are secure? Should we invest and sacrifice our life to high principles or causes that promote a better future for humanity, or should we focus on making the most of our own life and not worry about the fate of the world? Is there really any way to best answer such questions? Sherlock will examine evidence from a variety of experts and perspectives.
