Welcome to Behind Kentucky Basketball. I'm Cameron Mills. A few weeks ago I

0:12

had the chance to sit down and have some conversations with each member of this

0:15

coming year's Kentucky basketball team. If you'd like to see video of the podcast,

0:21

check out the UK Sports Network social media. We're on Facebook, Instagram,

0:26

and x and hopefully this chat will allow you to get to know these

0:29

guys a little bit better than you already do. I truly hope you enjoy

0:33

these conversations. So we're simply with Tredy Mitchell, transfer from West Virginia and

0:37

someone who is used to transferring. You've been a lot of school, So

0:42

what's it been like coming here? Because every time you've gone to new and

0:45

it's been new teammates, new coaches, new coaching philosophy. What's it been

0:49

like coming to Kentucky. It's been an amazing opportunity. First, Yeah,

0:53

but it's definitely unlike any place that I've been, and obviously I've been around

0:57

a little bit. Yeah, but it's just the people here. You you

1:00

feel the energy, you feel the love everywhere you go. We're not even

1:03

in season yet and people all over the place supporting us, like even we

1:07

went to Toronto and yeah, place was packed out blue, Like you're not

1:11

getting that in many places. Is that like when you when you decided to

1:14

come here, because when you left West Virginia you had a bunch of different

1:18

offers to go other places. What was the give me one thing? What

1:22

was the one thing that said, now, it's Kentucky because you didn't know

1:26

about you didn't know absolutely absolutely, I mean it's it was pretty simple because

1:32

it's a Hall of Fame coach, you know his track record and the dudes

1:36

to support him, and it's my last go around at this so I want

1:40

to give myself the best opportunity to make it to the next leveer. What's

1:44

the biggest thing you think you've improved on this summer? Because you and I

1:48

both know this is when you make your strides in the summer, not during

1:51

the season, and during the summer, so what's what do you think?

1:53

What's the thing you focused on? And then if it's not something similar,

1:57

what's the biggest change in your game from last year to this year that you've

2:00

done. I would say a big focus for me this offseason was getting my

2:06

body weight up to be able just to be a little stronger and hold myself

2:09

a little better out there on the court because my body weight is fluctuated throughout

2:14

my years in college. And now I'm finally at that spot where like I

2:16

found the area where I'm comfortable, still able to move and still be physical

2:23

download with guys. And I guess the biggest change that I went through the

2:28

summer is just kind of learned to play with the new guys. Yeah,

2:31

it's really just just learning their games and learning my spots on the court.

2:36

Because the way that I see myself is I would call it like a plug

2:40

and play type of guy, Like you can kind of just put me where

2:44

you need me to be, and I'll find a way to feel into the role and do what I need to do. Yeah, I'm just meaning to

2:49

coach whatever you need me to do. Yeah, exactly, all right.

2:52

So one of the things, because you know, whether it's the one and

2:54

done, you're going to be here one year one way or the other,

2:57

right and you're gone. So one of the things that a lot of fans

3:00

don't like is they don't get to know a lot of the players these days. So let me ask you a few questions. We're gonna get to know

3:05

who Tred Mitchell is right. So let's end a couple. Start with the easy one. What is what do you do off the court for fun?

3:12

And you can't say video games? Video games is going to be the default.

3:15

I know every player's going to say it. You can't say video games, but that is one of them. I know it is. That's why

3:19

I'm disallowing video games. So give me another one. But me, I

3:23

like to I just kind of like to be outside, whether that be on

3:27

a handmock on my porch, or go for a walk with my dog,

3:30

things like that, just to kind of stay in the present moment because you

3:34

know, there's a lot of noise out there and things like that. So

3:37

I like to read. I like to draw things like that just kind of

3:40

get your mind away from everything. Would you draw? Is there a particular

3:44

medium, is there a particular subject that you like drawing, or is it just kind of doodling until it becomes something that you're proud of. That's actually

3:51

exactly that. I kind of just it'll be on paper on my iPad.

3:54

I just kind of I just sketch around and then until I think it looks

4:00

like something, and then I'll turn it into something all right. So yeah,

4:03

we talked about the number of teams you played for, so you've had

4:05

a lot of different coaches, a lot of the different types of coaches.

4:10

So if someone's wanting to motivate Trey Mitchell, all right, let's say you're

4:13

coming off a bad game this season. Coach count needs to get you up,

4:15

get you going? What do you what do you want to hear?

4:19

What? How does the one motivate Trey Mitchell? First, I would say

4:24

that most of my motivation it comes from a thing because you can't you can't

4:28

really rely on somebody else to bring that idea all the time. But from

4:31

a coaching perspective, I think I do best with a coach that is able

4:38

to explain things yeah and make things make sense. I feel like that's when

4:43

when I'm at my best. Whether that be him saying, Okay, you

4:46

did this, this and this wrong. Yeah, so this is how we fix this, or whether that be like, yo, go out there,

4:53

play your game like, yeah, you had a bad game. It is

4:56

what it is. But you know the work you've put in, you know

4:59

the things like that. Just trust your game and this is kind of that

5:02

when your career is over at Kentucky, these new teammates of years, what

5:08

do you hope they say about you? Well, what do you hope that

5:12

this and you've got one year right with these guys, your last colleague to

5:15

go around when you leave here, what's the one thing that you're like,

5:18

I hope this is what they think of me, and this is what they

5:20

tell people about me. One, I would just say that he's a good

5:27

dude, number one. But two, he's somebody that that you could come

5:30

to with any type of problem, any type of question, and he's going

5:36

to break it down in a way that makes sense. Because I know that

5:41

a lot of players that I've been with that biggest gap between coach and player.

5:46

It's just things not making sense to them. Okay, So like being

5:48

around and being with a bunch of different coaches, the thing that I've learned

5:53

probably the most is how to take what a coach is saying and really break

5:57

that down to what's he wants from you. So I know, like some

6:00

dudes get emotional about it, whether it's just a tone of voice or how

6:04

they say it, or they say it and it doesn't make sense. And

6:06

it's just like even in practice now I see, when guys kind of feel

6:11

some type of way about coach saying something, I pull him to the side

6:14

and I'm like, go, like, this is what he's trying to convey to you, it just doesn't sound like it. And see, that's one

6:18

of the most important things about you, being your age, how long you

6:23

played college basketball or basketball in general. Because my freshman year get yelled at

6:28

all the time. You take it personally. You can't take it personally.

6:31

So having somebody in your shoes that can take what we got seven freshmen,

6:34

pull them aside and say, if it is the freshman, which I assume

6:38

it is because they're not. Everybody has right, but you pull them aside

6:41

and say, don't take it personally. It's not personal, right, it's

6:44

just coaching coach. All right, Let me change change gears here on.

6:46

You just think about this one carefully. When you're getting dressed for practice or

6:50

game, right, do you go sock sock shoe shoe or sock shoe,

6:55

sock shoe, socks, socks, shoes, shoes A normal person for sure.

6:59

Absolutely. All right, Trey, thanks for hanging out with us for

7:01

a few minutes. I appreciate it. And the season appreciate. We're with

7:04

the freshman phenom Rob Dillingham, who is part of the enormous UH incoming freshman

7:11

class that ended the season. I guess last year we could call the season,

7:14

but ended last year UH as a number one recruiting class in the country.

7:18

Does that add any added pressure to you? And and at this point

7:21

there's we got what seven freshmen, so it even grew during I guess you

7:26

know, during the off season. But do you feel the added pressure because

7:30

you're you were labeled as such a high recruit and are part of such a

7:33

high recruiting class. Uh? I mean, I don't think of it like

7:38

that. I really just think of it like everyone got to prove theirselves at

7:42

every level. So like even though we did something in high school, I

7:46

feel like we got to prove ourselves at this level too. I feel like we have a good chance to be better, like as they say, but

7:53

I feel like we always got to prove ourselves. So without putting see the

7:57

kind of pressure on yourself where you feel like you have to go out and accomplished, whether it's a practice or let's say you're all's first nationally televised game,

8:03

right, how do you go out and prove that, you know what,

8:07

I got to prove myself at this level. How do you go do

8:09

that without overdoing it? You know what I mean? Uh? Yeah,

8:13

I think it would be really just having confidence in each other and in ourselves

8:16

because we're in the gym every single day, so it's like we should we

8:20

deserve to go out there and be able to play good because we put in

8:24

work. So it's like not really arrogance, but like confidence in ourselves.

8:28

And I feel like if we have confidence on ourselves, then we won't overdo

8:31

it. So if y'all in the gym every day, I'm presuming whether is

8:35

it individual destruction? Is it pick up games? What are y'all doing right

8:37

now? Uh? We do everything we have like individual Everyone works out individually

8:43

every day and then we'll play pick up when we don't have like any workouts

8:48

or anything. So let's talk about the pick up games all right. Let's let's get a little insight into what's going on with the team right now.

8:52

Everybody's all Toronto, right, which got everybody excited about this team, which

8:56

typically what happens when we go on a trip like that. Every when we

9:00

play well, everyone gets excited. But we've continued to practice, I mean

9:03

basically not officially, but y'all continue to play pickup games, you continue to

9:07

be around each other. Who has been the biggest surprise on this team as

9:13

far as you're concern when you knew who's going to be on this team even

9:16

as guys got added, Like who is the guy that during pickup games during

9:18

maybe just individual on the that you're like, dang, he's better than I

9:22

thought, or he works harder than I thought. Right, who is that

9:26

person? I'd probably say either a dude or debut because like I knew they

9:31

were good, but like they play harder than everyone, so it's like it

9:35

just adds more to their game because everyone on our team can score the boss.

9:39

It's like they add the extra what we really need, the nitty gritty

9:43

getting rebounds in. Is there like a shock to you because you've obviously played

9:46

a very high level in high school, but now you're jumping This is a

9:52

big jump, right, and it just is regardless of how good you are,

9:56

it's a big lead, not only to college because now it's a job. Righthigh school, it might have been for fun out it's a job,

10:03

but is there is there a part of you that like when you got here

10:07

right that you weren't ready for it yet, like and and it couldn't be

10:11

something you could get ready for it in a day, but it's like something that shocked you, like, oh okay, wait a minute, this is

10:16

now, this is more serious than it was last year. I mean,

10:20

basketball wise, I feel like it don't really change that much either if it's

10:24

just like maybe physical if anything, but I feel like basketball is basketball,

10:28

so if anything, it would be school where Okay, all right, so

10:31

let's talk about the physical part thing because you mentioned a do right and to

10:35

do Apparently he's put on a lot of weight this summer. He already played

10:37

physical last year. That's what he was known for with the way he plays.

10:43

You come in as a freshman. We'll take the other freshman as well.

10:46

Is there a way where okay, anybody can score? Right, you said that, but the way it do plays, the way JB plays,

10:52

you're looking at like, oh okay, they're not just scoring, they're playing

10:56

on another level. When it comes to intensity, is that something you look

11:00

at and say, Okay, I've got to match that or do you feel like you're already there as far as matching that intensity, Uh, yeah,

11:05

for sure. I feel like I've definitely gotten better seeing them do it,

11:09

because like I understand that, like everyone can score the ball, so you

11:13

got to add something to be able to play in the game. So really

11:16

just working on overall. But yeah, I feel like I've gotten better at

11:20

it this year. What did your game right now? As great as you

11:24

are, where do you need to get better between now and April? Probably

11:31

just play making and understanding, like with the players we got, like a

11:37

good shot is not better than a great shot with our team because like in

11:41

high school, we could take shots and they'll go in. But it's just

11:45

like we always want to find the best play in the situation, so we'll

11:48

give up a good shot for a great shot, even when if it's myself,

11:52

So like giving a ball up the tone. If I got to open

11:56

three but one dribble and then I kicked the tone, It's like he shoots

12:00

at a high percentage, so why not give up the shots? So like really just having like like risking what you got for other people to see our

12:07

whole team win. Everybody saw Toronto, and I think the one thing we

12:11

saw in Toronto was Okay, these guys are as good as advertised, but

12:16

they also seem to be able to play as though they've known each other for

12:20

years. Why is that? How can you guys look to be so gelled

12:26

in the middle of summer when we've got eight new guys on this team.

12:30

I feel like, well, we have room to improve. But like I

12:33

feel like, honestly, like it's because we don't look at each other as

12:37

competition. And on practice we do look at each other's competition because like we

12:41

all want to play. But like when it comes to off the court, when we're all the way from basketball, we all like we laugh it off.

12:48

We could argue and practice then right after practice all be laughing, so like we just know that it's more to it and it's a team, all

12:54

right, So when you're competing in practice, who is your who's your rival

12:56

in practice? Who is it that you want to get the best of? Every day? Definitely DJ every day, JA zone all right? Fair enough?

13:03

When we're off the court, all right, When when Rob steps off

13:07

the court and needs a break from all of this mess that is that is

13:11

not just college basketball, but Kentucky college basketball, what do you do?

13:15

What's your what's your way to relax. And I'm gonna add this, You cannot say gaming. I don't want to hear Xbox Play safteen five. I

13:20

don't hear any of that. You can't say gaming. I want something else

13:22

other than gaming. I don't really know. I hang out with my family

13:26

a lot, I hang out with the teammates, but I don't really do

13:28

a lot. And there's not another hobby that you can think of. Has

13:33

it just been basketball for you for for eighteen years? Has that all's been

13:35

literally basketball? I don't do nothing else for at all? All right?

13:41

So what is all right? So we talked what you do for fun?

13:45

So apparently you just play basketball for fun. So these are gonna be more

13:48

some of be related to basketball, but a little more personal. What's your

13:54

favorite place you've ever traveled to? My mom is from Samoa, so I

13:58

went to some when I was younger. How old were you when you went?

14:01

Like seven? Yeah? And I have held the pictures from it.

14:05

So do you remember a lot of it or just from the pictures A little

14:07

bit? I remember, but mostly from the pictures for real. But yeah,

14:11

like I remember like going in the ocean and all. Yeah, So

14:16

we stayed there for like two months. I remember a little bit. What

14:18

was what was the most meaningful thing you brought back from that trip? And

14:22

I know you're only seven, so it might be hard to be even thought

14:24

in that term, but but you know, it's where your mom is from.

14:28

It's not like the United States, it's not like how you grew up.

14:31

But so what did you bring back? What? What? What changed

14:33

in you, even at that young age, from coming back from there? Really just like being grateful for everything you have because like you never know another

14:39

person situation, not everyone has like you. So like, even if you

14:43

don't have a lot, you just got to be grateful because and we're blinded

14:46

to it over here, right whether even watching the news being there's a completely

14:50

different story no matter where it is, right, what what do you think

14:54

it's far? Think about all the coaches you've had in your lifetime. And

14:58

we'll ad coach count now because you've had him for a few months. What

15:01

do you think is the most overrated way to motivate a player? Let me

15:07

put you on a coach of shoes. You've got to get the best out of your point guard or the best out of somebody. How do you do

15:13

that? How do you want to be coached in a sense of motivation.

15:16

Uh, really, just like having room for you to mess up, because

15:22

when you in your head think like all right, if I miss mess up

15:26

and I'm coming out the game, yep, you all automatically play like a

15:30

nervous you don't play as comfortable. So really just having a room to like

15:33

mess up and improve. Yep. All right, last question, I'll let you go. All right, when you're getting dressed right practice getting ready for

15:39

your game, do you put on socks, socks, shoes, shoes or

15:43

do you go soft shoe, soft shoe, suck, sucks shoes. Alright,

15:48

you're normal. We got to go. All right, Thanks, ro

15:52

appreciate it very very much. Thank you. Welcome backward with Grant Darbyshire.

15:54

Who sophomore, senior, sophomore softomore, sophomore. What is so you now?

16:02

And this sounds weird because you're a sophomore, but you're an upperclassman at

16:06

the University of Kentucky, right, I mean we got seven eight new guys

16:10

who some of them might be older than you, but they've not played at

16:12

Kentucky for a year. Right, so you've got that behind you. What

16:15

would be your biggest thing, one thing that you would wish to impart to

16:19

the incoming freshman about this is what you need to understand about playing at Kentucky.

16:25

I mean, I would just say to keep a positive mindset. You know, like the college basketball's a long season, you know, like guys

16:32

can get tired, both mentally and physically. And I'd say the biggest thing

16:34

is about you know, us sticking together, us supporting one another, and

16:38

you know, just keeping our spirits up, you know, And how do

16:41

you do that? I mean, because I think that's such an important thing

16:45

of staying together as a team, not getting upset at each other, even

16:48

if we do, because we both know what happens in practice. Right,

16:52

But at some point there is a kind of live and let live attitude of

16:55

Okay, this circle we have of us, it's just us and we can't

16:59

let anybody the outside get in. Yeah. So how is it that you

17:03

all, and you've had a year under Cal, you're don't read to start your second year? What is it, whether it's Cal, whether it's just

17:08

that we got great guys on the team, how are you all able to

17:11

do that? Because it's a rare thing, especially is the limited amount of

17:17

time that you all play together. Every year, new guys coming in.

17:19

Yeah, So what is it about cal or what is it about our system

17:22

that says, you know what, these teams become a bunch of guys who

17:26

don't know each other, but they play like their long lost brothers. All.

17:30

How's that happen? I mean, honestly, I would say just the

17:32

amount of time to spend together. You know, we all live in the same building. We see each other every single day. You know, guys

17:37

are always checking in on each other, somebody gets sick, like you know,

17:41

it's always it's a family, and you know, it's just built into

17:44

the culture here. I would say, like whether it's on the court or

17:47

off the court, like we have, we laughed just as much in the locker room as we do compete on the floor. Yeah, you know,

17:52

I think that's one of the biggest things with any team really. Yeah,

17:55

and I think that's just what makes it so special. Antonio, who we

17:59

just talked to you walked in said something about him. He was talking about

18:02

bowling. Oh, you can't talk. He can't talk about bowling. Bowling,

18:07

But yes, the last time we went he lost three nothing. I'm

18:10

sorry, three fifty is as high, but that's not his average. No,

18:15

No, I don't know. I don't play as much as him.

18:18

I still beat him, though, so he can't be that good, but

18:22

I will give him credit. Though. We were playing one game I had.

18:26

I bought a one ninety three first, all right, okay, I

18:29

thought the game was over. I was taking picture of the score. He

18:33

had to bowl three strikes in a row in the tenth frame to beat me. Yeah, and he did it. Oh my gosh, I was so

18:40

mad. But no, yeah, him and I we go bowling sometimes.

18:44

It's a lot of fun other than bowling, and I'm and other than gaming.

18:47

Because I'm assuming most of you guys are going to answer if I say what you're off the court wind down activity, I'm guessing I'm gonna hear a

18:53

lot of gaming. I don't want gamings to answer. You can't use gaming

18:56

and you can't use bowling, because I already know that about you. How

18:59

how do you unwind after game hard practice, when you want to step away

19:03

from that court and not be a UK basketball player for a couple of hours?

19:07

What do you do? I actually don't game at all. I don't

19:11

play any video games, but uh, personally for me, I mean,

19:15

I will I do a lot of homework in my free time, sadly,

19:18

but I don't but to be sad, not to be sad about But at

19:22

the same time, you know, it's not it's not great, it's not

19:25

Yeah, I play the ukulele. Okay, that's something I do. No,

19:30

Okay, wait a minute, wait, yeah when did that start?

19:33

That actually started like January of last year. I don't know. I was

19:37

like, your girlfriend give you a ukulele, and you were you were afraid

19:41

to say you didn't want it. No, no, no, I actually

19:45

took it from home. My sister has one, but she never used it,

19:48

so she gave it to me. And so I just decided to like,

19:51

this is just something to teach myself to start doing. And you, I mean you can. I mean I don't even know what song uses a

19:56

ukulele. Yeah, but like you can play, yeah, just strum.

20:00

You can actually play a song in your Yeah, all right, we'll come

20:03

back and get that on a camera at some point. Yeah, what as

20:07

you let's take Toronto, let's take the ten days of practice before Toronto,

20:12

and we didn't even go back to last year with you. What do you

20:15

look at with this team that now that you know, Okay, you've seen

20:18

the freshman play, you've seen the incoming guys, you were here last year,

20:22

What do you look at with this team that you think, I think

20:25

the fans are going to be surprised that this team is this? What is

20:30

that? Well? What do you see because all they're seeing is the games.

20:32

They're not seeing the practice. You're seeing practice all the time, so you see a lot more. So what what would surprise us this year to

20:37

know about this team and what it's going to be like you think? I

20:40

mean, I would probably just say from the jump, for me, it was just the unselfishness, like it looks like these guys have played together.

20:45

Yeah, it does for a while, and it's you don't see that very

20:49

often in a lot of college teams. And you know, the way we

20:52

moved the ball from the way we moved the ball in Toronto, and then

20:56

just the way we score effortlessly, and but also just our connection like off

21:00

the court that makes things like that so much easier. And I just probably

21:03

say, like something to look forward to, just there's just going to be

21:07

a lot of like good basketball, you know what I mean? And just

21:10

a lot of good ball movement, good the words escaping. But if you

21:18

kind of get what I'm saying, just having a good basketball IQ, I

21:21

think your career here is over and you're no longer a Wildcat, You're an

21:25

ex Wildcat. What is it? And I want you to think about your

21:27

teammates? What is it you hope your teammates what do you want them to

21:30

say about you as a person and as a basketball player. I would say

21:36

as a person, I want to be known as the guy who's willing to do anything for his teammates. And I hope these guys know that, Like

21:41

if they need me on the court, off the court, you know, whatever they need from me, I'm going to be there for them. That's

21:45

long after they're done playing. And so I like, my goal here is

21:49

to make lifelong friendships and relationships that are going to last me and just allow

21:55

me to connect with these guys for a lifetime. And I think as a

21:57

person's that's the important thing to me. And then as a basketball player,

22:02

just somebody who always pushed them to whatever way I can, you know,

22:06

on the court, in the weight room, in whatever way they see. So you talk about pushing your teammates, What pushes you, what motivates you

22:12

to get better? We're coming off of summer. Summer is when players get

22:15

better, right, So what is it that has motivated you this summer to

22:19

work on your game? I mean, honestly, a lot of it comes

22:22

from these guys. You know, like I want to be able to contribute

22:26

to like the way they do every single day, and I want to be

22:29

able to push them just as hard as they can push me. So you know, it's honestly, it's it's a team that really drives me. I

22:33

would poleast probably say on the court, and then you know, just being

22:37

able to like stick with these guys and do whatever I can to help them.

22:41

I think that's the biggest thing that's going to drive me. You talked

22:44

about how much this team seems to already have gelled as a team and only

22:48

ten again, ten days to prak y'all may get done three days days,

22:52

but you had ten days of practice and you had a week in Toronto.

22:56

Specifically about the new guys, what is it that I mean, what do

23:02

they like? What did they come in with this attitude that you feel like,

23:07

Okay, you know what you as a freshman or even Treys at first

23:10

year player at Kentucky. I need you to know this. And I've been

23:14

here a year, I've gone through an entire season. UK. This is

23:17

what I want you to know about playing here. What would you like to impart to them? Honestly, I'd probably say just kind of going back to

23:26

my message earlier, but just like perseverance, like having mental perseverance. And

23:32

i'd say a lot of you know a lot of guys. These guys are so good that they want to push themselves to the point where it can be

23:37

detrimental to themselves. The mindset that they can get into. And I would

23:41

say just Trey, probably more than anybody who's played four years of college basketball

23:45

already knows how you know, draining it can be. And so he's really

23:51

good about being positive on himself. I feel like being able a positive influence

23:55

on others. Yeah, And I would just say, for like the freshman, you know, just keeping that positive mindset, you know, like one

24:00

game doesn't define a season. One minute a play doesn't define the whole game,

24:03

you know, So that's that would be my advice for them. All

24:07

right, let's go to some more personal stuff. What is the what is

24:11

your favorite place that you have traveled and not necessarily here, UK, let's

24:14

take your whole life. What's your favorite place that you've ever made a trip

24:17

to. Oh, that's really tough. I would probably say Kawhi, Hawaii,

24:22

Kawhi. Yeah that's okay? Is that mal? No, it's Kawhi.

24:27

It's like the smallest, the smallest one, Okay, all right?

24:33

Other than and I actually I don't know this because when I played here,

24:37

Grant, I knew I wasn't good enough to go to the NBA. So it was never a dream, mister, dream when I was a little kid,

24:41

wasn't a dream when I got here. My dream was to get here

24:45

other than professional basketball. If that's a goal of yours, what is what?

24:48

What is your goal after basketball is over? What is it you want

24:51

to do? I'm honestly not so sure. I want to do something,

24:56

probably in the sports miss industry. Yeah, I'm not really sure. I'm

25:00

pursuing a finance degree right now, minor in Spanish, so okay, kind

25:03

of exploring my options a little bit. But yeah, I'm not really sure

25:07

what I want to do when I'm done. When we have introductions, right,

25:11

Rubberne to twenty two thousand people in their lights off, fireworks going.

25:15

There's always music going, all right. In baseball, it's different. Get

25:18

you get to walk up, right, they play your walk up music?

25:22

Yeah? What's your walk up music? What one song would you like to

25:26

be introduced to? I? Probably, I don't know. It's just a

25:30

song I've liked since I was younger. Probably remember the name for it,

25:32

minor? Is that? Is that a ukulele song? No, it is not. Okay, it is not all right, Thanks for hanging out.

25:37

No, appreciate it. Appreciate a great year, sir. Thank you.

25:45

All right, So we're gonna I'm gonna ask you a few basketball stuff,

25:47

and then we're gonna get personal, not real personal fun, personal
