Rob HarringtonGUEST
You just don't have the veterans.
Rob HarringtonGUEST
I mean, it wasn't that long ago that Boeheim was in the conference, and Leonard Hamilton was in the conference, Tony Bennett, not to mention of course Mike Krzyzewski and Roy Williams.
Rob HarringtonGUEST
You know, all those guys, Rick Pitino, I mean, all of them are gone, and it would be really difficult to replace them in the best of circumstances, no matter how much money you had.
Rob HarringtonGUEST
But when you add to these Hall of Famers exiting without the resources to get a brand name hire, to take a proven head coach, it's a lot of risk-taking.
Matt LovelessGUEST
And I would sure hate to rob the Pullman crowd of the opportunity to have the Bulldogs show up to Beasley Coliseum and watch us beat up on them.
Matt LovelessGUEST
Those were good days during the Tony Bennett days when we finally cracked Gonzaga there and What was that? 2006.
Matt LovelessGUEST
So anyway, it's I don't know.
Matt LovelessGUEST
That's something that they certainly could do.
Gary ParrishHOST
[laughs] We used to-
Matt NorlanderHOST
I think we had Tony Bennett at, at number one.
Matt NorlanderHOST
Tony or Jay.
Matt NorlanderHOST
But, uh-
Gary ParrishHOST
Who's your, who do you think's the hottest coach now? We haven't done this in a while.
Matt NorlanderHOST
Oh, I, I don't even-
Gary ParrishHOST
Tony Bennett was up there for a while, but he-
Matt NorlanderHOST
It was Tony and Jay, and they're both gone.
Zach HeilprinHOST
Overreaction, Wisconsin needs to be talked about as a college football playoff contender.
Zach HeilprinHOST
And the reason I, is this an overreaction or not? And the reason I throw this in here is because one of Wisconsin's favorite people who always had some things to say about whether it was Bo Ryan or Dick Bennett or Tony Bennett, Pat Porty, who writes for SI, does not have them in the 12, but he has them in the also considered, along with a group of UCLA, Indiana, Iowa, Oklahoma State, Oregon, USC, Texas Tech, Utah, Pittsburgh, Wisconsin.
Zach HeilprinHOST
So I'd assume that is what? That's another nine teams.
Zach HeilprinHOST
So 21 teams among those considered for the college football playoff.
Vince WolframHOST
Obviously has dealt with injuries in his time.
Vince WolframHOST
Obviously a new coach with Ryan Odom versus Tony Bennett.
Vince WolframHOST
He was there for both eras.
Vince WolframHOST
But this is a senior, a guy that we know can play from Jersey City, played at Hudson Catholic.
Tom HenskeGUEST
And then I got a phone call from UVA basketball.
Tom HenskeGUEST
They had a legendary coach there at the time, a guy named Tony Bennett.
Tom HenskeGUEST
And basically, NIL was just starting up, and they had a player who came in.
Tom HenskeGUEST
This is what I'm going to assume.
12 MINS LATER
Tom HenskeGUEST
He really helped push the book in a way that it was digestible for not only student athletes, but just regular students who are 18 to 22 years old.
Kevin KennedyHOST
So the book is for students, not necessarily for athletic directors or for financial advisors or anyone outside the student realm.
Tom HenskeGUEST
Yeah, the people who pushed me to write the book were Carla Williams, who was the athletic director at UVA, and Tony Bennett at the time.
Tom HenskeGUEST
And so it became athlete-focused when we put it out, and that's why it says NIL Financial Playbook.
Marty PlumHOST
And his son played into that as well.
Marty PlumHOST
And that is Dick Bennett, and by proxy, Tony Bennett.
Marty PlumHOST
The Bennetts, you know, what do you say? You know, this is more about Dick Bennett, but, you know, Tony Bennett is right there, won the national championship, I Dick Bennett, though, 489 wins.
Marty PlumHOST
The 2001 Final Four team that he had at Wisconsin.
Marty PlumHOST
What people don't understand is Wisconsin was just awful at men's basketball for decades in the Big Ten.
Marty PlumHOST
He is the godfather of the pack line defense.
Marty PlumHOST
He is the godfather of the blocker mover offense.
Marty PlumHOST
And getting back to today's concepts, the five pillars of Tony Bennett and those themes, those pillars, those different things that you have to stand on, like fight for your culture every day, joy, love, trust, do simple, better, all of those things.
Gil McGregorHOST
He said, I couldn't guard.
Gil McGregorHOST
He said, I didn't start guarding until I got to Virginia, because as you said, Tony Bennett.
Gil McGregorHOST
You don't guard, you are not going to play.
Gil McGregorHOST
And Ryan learned that quickly, and Ryan became one of the best defenders in the ACC.
Luke NeerHOST
...
Luke NeerHOST
Tony Bennett at, at his heyday in the national championship run in 2019.
Luke NeerHOST
He had a Kyle Getter, who if you looked at the huddles, it's always Tony and Getter.
Luke NeerHOST
Everybody else is sort of-
Preston WillettHOST
A lot to dig into here, and it's not as much about – normally there's a lot of injury updates and just kind of housekeeping stuff that you like to keep.
Preston WillettHOST
But I thought that Tony Elliott this Tuesday was a lot more – deep and introspective on each question than than you typically find and maybe that's just coming off a loss and and wanting to get into a lot of stuff but it felt like we had less time for like a multitude of questions and it was just like you got a lot for the one question that you did ask It's the Tony Bennett strategy.
Preston WillettHOST
Give you a long answer and
Kris WrightGUEST
I'll
