Tom Frank:And this is the Juniata Men's Basketball Show. Welcome listeners. I'm Tom Frank and I'm joined each and every week by Drew Beskett, aka Biz, and your Juniata head basketball coach, greg Curley. As we talk all things Juniata Men's College Basketball, biz we got two things to address. Number one coach is out on the road. Yes so we're in uncharted territory here we're gonna. We're gonna uncharted territory we're gonna, we're gonna go after it, but we might have a few special guests on throughout throughout the, throughout the record, all right yeah, this is like the whole.
Biz Besket:This is a whole new uh, a whole new uh voyage that we're on here it is it is it could be an interesting one.
Tom Frank:This could be who knows, who knows. But before we get to that, can I just say wow about the commanders last night the commanders yes I mean I know your steelers are long gone, but I mean I gotta live it up here.
Biz Besket:This is a, this is a rare, a rare thing steelers will be long gone until somebody else is gone, but that's all right right, it was an incredible game last night, though. That was an incredible game man. I was shocked. I did take Washington with the points and the over, Thank God.
Tom Frank:I appreciate that I appreciate that. Now this does put the alumni game weekend. I now have an added twist to it because I have to now jump in that car early the next morning to rush home because I got to be complete.
Biz Besket:You were gone by.
Tom Frank:I was, because the Eagles were in it last year, weren't they? Yeah, yeah. So now, who do I root for, eagles or Rams Eagles? My wife is heavily vested and it could be a heck of a family rivalry. But do I want that level of stress in my life?
Biz Besket:I mean, you're going to have that level of stress whether they win or lose, aren't you?
Tom Frank:Probably true. Yeah, I think I want the Eagles.
Biz Besket:There will be much nation at your house.
Tom Frank:I think I want the Eagles and I want the Ravens to win, and then all of let me explain why All of football will be right here, and then we'll have Kansas City out here.
Biz Besket:I can't stay in Kansas City now I can't either. They're like the new Patriots man, Get them out of here they are.
Tom Frank:I don't like them either. Do you see? Like Caitlin Clark, I'm going to root for her, caitlin.
Biz Besket:Clark's like jumping on the bandwagon now she was in the box.
Tom Frank:Well, apparently she's been a longtime fan.
Biz Besket:Yeah, I'm not buying it.
Tom Frank:Don't be going after Kaitlyn Clark. I'm a Kaitlyn Clark guy, all right. Yeah, I like her. I'm rooting for her. Hey, she can play. We got a very special show this week.
Biz Besket:Very special. I believe something's coming up. I've been waiting for this moment for three months. I know you've been waiting for this moment for a long time.
Tom Frank:We're going to take a break from reality. It's been a tough season up to this point for our Eagles, no doubt about that, but there's a weekend every season that's bigger than the record of any particular season. That's right, right, it's alumni weekend coming up. Junior Adam men's basketball program will be welcoming guys from many, many, many different areas, many different areas, and they're going to give it. They kind of help reshift the boat a little bit, yeah.
Biz Besket:I mean I'm looking at the list right now. It's a long list of people coming back. That means that they've been indoctrinated into the program and it means something to them and they're coming back to support.
Tom Frank:I think this could be very big for what we need right now. I believe you're right, we need some old blood coming back. That's right. Giving the new guys a little bit of a pep talk, getting them rallied up, yep. But to give us the lay of the land, we've got to invite on Juniatis best assistant coach, maybe now, maybe ever.
John Kelly:The great one and only.
Tom Frank:Nick Hager.
John Kelly:What's up?
Tom Frank:guys, hey Coach Hager, hey what's up, appreciate you having me on.
Nick Hager:He's wearing his alumni sweatshirt.
Biz Besket:Tom, I think he wants to play Wait a minute.
Tom Frank:Is that your number 55, or did you graduate in 1955?
Biz Besket:Good.
Tom Frank:Lord man, I'm not that old Tom. All right, you wore number 55?
Nick Hager:I wore 55, yeah.
Tom Frank:Who the heck wears 55? I never knew that about you.
Nick Hager:You know I grew up in the time of Jason Williams playing in the NBA. That's true. All right, white chocolate. Yeah, I started my sophomore year in high school. You know sophomores got the last pick of the high school jerseys and 55 was available and you know white chocolate was out doing its thing, in the NBA.
Biz Besket:So yeah, Now was that back in the day where you couldn't have numbers above five. Oh, yeah, yeah, that was way before that. Remember that you couldn't.
Tom Frank:That was up until like two years ago. Yeah, I think yeah, so 55. So you took 55 as a sophomore, never thought of changing it and went 55 the rest of the way 55 sophomore year in high school all the way through college.
Biz Besket:Yep, oh, hey, look where it got him the number one, the number one d3 assistant coach in the country, in the nation.
Tom Frank:Yeah, I like it All right Now. Do you want to give us any kind of overview before we dive in here? Alumni weekend Give us the run of show.
Nick Hager:So you mean, like what's going to happen, like on that Saturday?
Tom Frank:Yeah, the whole day. The whole day yeah.
Nick Hager:So for us, you know we play the four o'clock game, so we'll be um looking for like around 11 am tip for the alumni game. I know that we get to sleep in a little time. Yeah, the women's team there. They have their alumni game, uh, I believe at nine or nine thirty um, because they have the same weekend. They moved to the same weekend as ours, um, so they have a game, I think at at 9 or 9.30. That we'll be on.
Nick Hager:After them Two 20-minute halves running clock, probably Looking at the roster here for guys who are going to play, they'll probably appreciate that. So we'll do two 20-minute halves, have it officiated and then, after that's done, give guys a chance to get showered up, get dressed and then we'll have some food over in Ellis Hall, ellis Ballroom, starting at 1 o'clock. Then we tip off at 4 against Granton. So after the game we'll have a place downtown Money Run Tavern. We have the upstairs reserved, so alums that are either playing or not playing. Coming back to the game, we'll have a spot up there for get some food and some drinks and just hang out and enjoy each other's company. So be a full day.
Biz Besket:Be a good day.
Tom Frank:I like it.
Biz Besket:That sounds good, man. Yeah, that was a blast last year.
Nick Hager:Yeah, I know the alums liked having you guys around talking to you. Got to hear your voices and everything and now the chance to sit down and talk with you and see you, so that was good at all ends.
Tom Frank:Most importantly, though, we'll be coaching again, team blue, team gold. Now, this will be the second annual Ed Mansberger alumni game right, correct, we're keeping it going, keeping it going.
Nick Hager:Yep, hopefully that sticks. That's going to be there every year.
Tom Frank:All right Now, before we get to the draft, I have a few questions. Is Jeremy Hayes coming back?
Nick Hager:Yes, jeremy Hayes, I talked to him on the phone. He is coming back. He told me he was going to be limited with playing time, so he's on a minute restriction. Ooh but he will be playing.
Tom Frank:Why is this? Has he suffered an injury?
Nick Hager:Yeah, with his business. I mean if you guys have seen his videos puts a lot out, he travels all over the place. If he's not healthy I mean he you guys have seen his videos he puts a lot out, he travels all over the place. If he's not healthy, I mean he's out of business. You know he's down, so he's got to make some decisions there. And I think last year he kind of pushed the envelope a little bit.
Tom Frank:He was the MVP of the game last year.
Nick Hager:Yeah, so I think he's going to kind of hold on to that, yeah, but I think he's gonna kind of hold on to that and like, yeah, but I think he's gonna be on a minute restriction this year, uh, from what he was telling me.
Biz Besket:So this is very, very behind the scenes I didn't even know this was out there. This is shay d, and I don't want any tom to have any contact with the officials prior to the game, though, hey I, that's how you, that's how you play the game.
Tom Frank:You gotta introduce yourself, you gotta get to know him a little bit. Now. Interesting thing about jeremy when I look at this list, he's the only non-pa guy. Am I right? Um, I, you don't have to say yes, because I've done my research I, I know this is for fact I know my stuff. I'm gonna give you a couple other quick stats before we dive in here. We're not gonna see the matchup we wanted to see, biz, I really did kind of want to see Marcus versus Chase.
Biz Besket:Oh yeah, that would have been good.
Tom Frank:Now, what do we know about Marcus? Marcus is traveling. What's going?
Biz Besket:on. We better not have more behind the scenes.
Nick Hager:Now Marcus did contact me and said he was going to try to make it, but he's not on the list, yeah, if he's, if he's gonna make it, I think he's gonna be a surprise. Uh, show up that morning and, um, you guys, I don't know, you guys have to figure out free throws, free throws to get on which team and like what's uh, what the plan is from there. So, yeah, that's gonna be, uh, I guess, tbd. So tbd.
Tom Frank:There's six guys coming back from last season's team. Who are we missing?
Nick Hager:Cade Anzulevich, I talked to him oh because, he's coaching. He's coaching.
Tom Frank:How are they?
Nick Hager:I haven't checked recently. I think they won last week, got a couple wins there, kind of the similar boat that we are. But, uh, he, they have a game at three o'clock on saturday and he's planning on coming for the uh, for the post game. Uh, yeah, so he's gonna try to. So I talked to him and I don't think I had to push him too hard, twist his arm too hard. So uh, he's like, yeah, he'll be there, he'll see us that evening. So All right.
Tom Frank:And there's my last little piece of trivia Can you name the high school that has the most guys on this list coming from? I want to see if even Nick knows this.
Biz Besket:It's gotta be somewhere, somewhere out East, right. I couldn't tell you the name of the high school State College.
Tom Frank:No, it's not State College. We don't have any State College guys coming.
Biz Besket:Well, Nick.
Nick Hager:Nick, you got a. I mean, I see two schools, three schools with two guys, but there is a school with three there's a school with three who would be the third, unless my, unless my.
Biz Besket:Uh, I think I'm gonna, I'm gonna trust, don't trust this, this guy over here no, I think I'm right here all right I'm gonna give you the guy's names kyle, okay, I?
Nick Hager:I think I know go ahead, go ahead, tom, kyle, michael and damon. Yep, yeah, that's what I I'm going to give you the guys names Kyle, michael and Damon. I didn't get a chance. I didn't recruit Damon he's an old guy but yeah, that's the one that slipped my mind.
Tom Frank:Bishop Guilfoyle to Pennsylvania oh there you go. I hold a little special place for BG. It's where my dad went hey wasn't that the BG? It's where my dad went.
Biz Besket:Hey, wasn't that the site of the four-overtime thriller?
Tom Frank:Was it at.
Biz Besket:BG. It was at BG.
Tom Frank:Oh, I don't have the memory like you do, Bish.
Biz Besket:I remember sitting there and I think Davis made the free throws to win the game and I was sitting next to his dad and his dad was going nuts. Good moment, thank you.
Tom Frank:Good moment. Thank you, good moment, yes, all right, all right. So here's how it's going to go down. All right, number one pick will go to you. Yeah, it's a charity thing, because you got beat by 80-something to I don't know 50-something.
Biz Besket:last year you didn't get to 80. You didn't get wanted 80. We kept you down.
Tom Frank:I thought I got to 80. No, I don't think so. I think I might have. Yeah, all right, inbatable. I'm going to keep my team blue. You're going to keep your team goal? Yeah, I can tell you this. The Glum reached out and he put a line on this game before we even picked players. Wow, that's bold line. I don't make the lines up. This is this. This is how it's going to go. So here's how it's going to get. You're going to get the number one pick yep, but yep, your player has to pick up the phone when you call. Or they're out, right, they're out, they're out. You can't pick them. And I get, I get the. I get the next two picks number two and number three. All right, our first picks will be our captains. They're going to join us if they answer for the rest of the show and they're going to help us out a little bit. All right, are you ready for this? I'm ready. All right, biz, I've been waiting for this. The clock is on.
Biz Besket:All right.
Tom Frank:For the number one pick.
Biz Besket:Let me make my phone call here. Hello, are you there, number one? What's going on? Oh, I, I remember last year, after the game, I I proclaimed that I was going to take him first. And here we are to the magic moment. Mr garbage can fries himself chase. Hughes said chase, what up, what's up, chase, what's up, chase.
Chase Husted:How's it going, guys?
Biz Besket:Hey, it's good man, Are you ready?
Tom Frank:You're going with Chase for the number one pick.
Biz Besket:Take Team Gold into the stratosphere Chase.
Chase Husted:I'm honored. Yes, I appreciate it. Thanks for having me. I'm honored.
Biz Besket:I'm the one who's honored man. You're my coach on the floor.
Tom Frank:All right, there you go, tom all right, there you go, tom chase houston in the house. All right, I'm gonna put him in yellow, I'm gonna put him yellow on the spreadsheet.
Tom Frank:I'm up now. Yeah, you're up. All right, I'm gonna call the guy that I know for fact. Last year he desperately wanted to be the center point of my team. He did, he did and I think he's been calling me ever since and bet pretty much begging me to be the number one pick. And I love the enthusiasm, I love the hustle of this guy. He was a great guest on our podcast.
Biz Besket:He was a great guest, great guest.
Tom Frank:I'm going to call him up right now.
Biz Besket:All right.
John Kelly:Hello, hey, what's going on there?
Tom Frank:he is Answered on the first ring. That's how excited he was, biz, I know, man, I'm going with my number one pick. He's a six five forward out of philadelphia, pennsylvania. I call him john power tool, kelly, how you doing john good doing well.
John Kelly:Guys, how's everyone doing?
Biz Besket:thanks for having me on now you jump on with an eagle's hat yeah, you got the eagle's hat on.
John Kelly:He's ready go birds, go birds, go birds are you?
Biz Besket:are you in philly right now?
John Kelly:I'm current yes, I'm currently in philly, but I don't live up here anymore all right.
Biz Besket:So give me, uh, give me the snow forecast and the wind, most importantly I'd say it's three to five inches.
John Kelly:I mean, we don't have anything out there right now. Three to five inches of snow is what they're saying.
Biz Besket:Are we going to get?
John Kelly:wind. Yeah, I don't know about the wind.
Tom Frank:You don't have exact wind miles per hour.
John Kelly:No, I don't. There's three to five inches of snow.
Biz Besket:Look when you're going up against a passing team and there might be a bet placed on the game. You want to know what the wind's going to do.
John Kelly:Well, with the Eagles, it's always good to stick with the ground game, which they've got. Barkley and Jalen Hurts.
Biz Besket:Well, the Rams don't have the same ground game. They?
Tom Frank:got a pretty good one, though we got snow and we got wind.
Tom Frank:Yeah, you got that going for you. Yeah, all right, john, you going to the game? No, I'm not going to the game. I know, yeah, I have to get down there, all right. So, biz, we were successful with our number one picks. They both answered the phone. They're our captains from here on in all. Right now, john, I I'm gonna have to take a pick with number three pick. That I don't know if you'll agree with or not, but I have to do it for historical reasons. All right, I I have to take a guy who's not even on our list, but I know he's coming back. He might be limited in minutes but I feel like he's still the heart and soul of the team, of team blue. I'm gonna go ahead and take he was our mvp last year jeremy fadeaway, fitness hayes, as our number three pick, overall number two pick on our team. We're going young, we're going old.
Biz Besket:That's what I'm going is hayes, the oldest guy on the I think he would right.
Tom Frank:He's a 2014 other than hager, who was in 1955, I think he is we got?
Biz Besket:we've got our oldest. Uh, brent, is that you?
Nick Hager:guys get furco's the uh8 grad. He's from LA.
John Kelly:Oh yeah, he is.
Nick Hager:Another information he is confirmed to be there next weekend because I don't know if you guys know, he's a huge, huge Bills fan and his family has season tickets, have been going for years. But since Kansas City won last night, you know they're hosting no matter what next weekend. So there's a chance. If Kansas City lost and Buffalo does its thing today, then he wasn't going to be there, yeah, but I think either way, he's going to be attending this weekend. So yeah, Furco takes the crown for oldest alum to be playing Oldest guy.
Tom Frank:Do we know if he can still run it up and down the court?
Biz Besket:Do we have any minute restrictions there?
Nick Hager:I don't think there will be minute restrictions. He still plays. I'm not sure if Chase has played him yet in the Pittsburgh League, but they're in the Pittsburgh League in Wexford.
Tom Frank:And Furco's still in this league.
Nick Hager:Yeah.
Biz Besket:I'm going to have to come watch you guys play. That's my neighborhood.
Chase Husted:I've seen them both. We haven't played against them, though, yet.
Tom Frank:How's he look, Chase?
Chase Husted:He looks good, Strong guy for sure.
Biz Besket:Who's on your team, Chase?
Chase Husted:let's talk about this yeah, I play with uh, griffin lecarte, dino brown, tim smith, but sadly tim smith suffered a little injury the last week when we were playing, so I think he's going to be out this upcoming weekend he's, he's blocking.
Biz Besket:He's, he's in white on the old spreadsheet.
Chase Husted:That's not good, yeah and uh cole bernarding's on the squad too.
Nick Hager:We had.
Chase Husted:John come down one weekend actually, but he wasn't able to play with us that week. Why not?
John Kelly:John, I didn't make it there until after the game. I made it there late Thursday night.
Tom Frank:I didn't know if they cut you at the last second because you weren't up to par with them. They weren't going to cut me All right, john, all right weren't up to par with them, they weren't gonna they weren't gonna cut all right, all right, john, all right, all right.
Biz Besket:So it looks like uh, you get the next two picks, but it's the next two picks. Um, all right, what? Uh, you know what? Okay, now I'm looking. You know, last year, last year I went with the uh, the teammate factor. But you know what? I gotta go? I gotta go with the Swiss Army Knife man. I gotta go with my guy who can play every position On the floor. He's gonna run point guard On this team because Curly didn't Really let him run point guard In the real games. I'm going with Gabe Getting her.
Tom Frank:That's a good pick.
Biz Besket:That's a very good pick is he uh playing down in the philly area dina?
Chase Husted:I don't know for sure, but I'm hoping he is, you know I've heard.
Tom Frank:I've heard that all he's done since he's left is eating chicken wings and he's he's bloomed up significantly. Biz, I'm just, that's just what I've heard.
Biz Besket:Twin towers in the middle, then he's still my point guard. And then you know what man Last year, the all-effort guy last year for me.
Tom Frank:Don't take the guy I'm thinking.
Biz Besket:What's that?
Tom Frank:Okay, team gold.
Biz Besket:Okay, good yeah he's my guy last year man. He gave the effort he powered it. I'm going to keep Team Pittsburgh intact.
Tom Frank:He was a hustler.
Biz Besket:Griff was my guy man. He went off last year. I'm going with Griff. All right, go with Griff, gabe and Griff the G Love that the double Gs Griff's been playing well in Pittsburgh too. I'm going to have to know when you guys are playing. I'll come watch you play, man. That's literally like five minutes away from my house.
Tom Frank:All right, john, we got two picks here. I think you take one, I take one. I know who I want because he was another heart and soul guy from the team last year, hey let me look. Okay, you want to talk these through a little bit, or you got it.
John Kelly:No, I got it. I got a pick, all right.
Tom Frank:I'm going yeah, you're picking.
John Kelly:Right now you're on sharpshooter sharpshooter out of uh altuna, pennsylvania.
Tom Frank:Damon rickens that's exactly who I was going with see, we're right there, we are right there a bg guy was, was the heart and soul of the team last year.
Biz Besket:I like it a good pick. I like that pick.
Tom Frank:Okay, now that throws me off, because now I've got to think of who I'm going to take. Let me color code him in blue here.
John Kelly:So now the question is do we want to stay old or do we want to go young? We could grab a young guy early. I mean there are going to be young guys, late, late too.
Tom Frank:I feel like neither one of us should take nate to the last pick, because I I think he, he, he he wants that, he wants that I've enjoyed being the last pick last year yeah, yeah, yeah.
John Kelly:No, duck's not getting touched till the end of the draft maybe by you guys all right, if we go young, do we go?
Tom Frank:we got kyle, we got nick, what do? What are we thinking here?
John Kelly:I mean, if haze is on a minute minutes restriction, we should probably get, we should probably go get. Go get a guard, let's get kyle, let's get kyle kyle ruggery yep kyle ruggery, 40 minute man, that's what they used to call him I like it and you know what?
Biz Besket:wait, he runs like marathons and crap doesn't't he, and he's another BG guy.
Tom Frank:So we're putting the high schools together here.
John Kelly:All right.
Tom Frank:I like it. Let me put him in blue Biz so that you don't try to take him later.
Biz Besket:I'm writing it down.
Tom Frank:I'm taking show notes here You're taking show notes? Yeah.
Biz Besket:All right, Chase man, let's go here. I want your. You're the captain, You're going to be running this show on the court man. All right, who are we liking?
Chase Husted:A lot of good guys out there still, you know.
Biz Besket:There are a lot of good guys.
Chase Husted:A lot of guys I played with.
Biz Besket:So I have some chemistry with those guys, chemistry's good man.
Chase Husted:There's one guy that's catching my eye in particular right now because, all right, he used to be a workhorse back when I played with him, and I'm pretty sure he's still a workhorse. I hope he's been playing, but I don't know. I like nick rigby right now yeah, rigby, he's, he.
Biz Besket:Yeah, mr huntington, yes, nick rigby.
Tom Frank:You know he'll be there. You know he'll make it, no matter the weather.
Biz Besket:You know what he's in Philly now, isn't he?
Tom Frank:Oh is he? Yeah, I'm glad I didn't take him then, because I was thinking he was right down the street.
Biz Besket:Rigby, he wants redemption from last year, man.
Tom Frank:I put him in the wrong color Biz. I'm sorry.
Biz Besket:He's gold. You cheater, I did I. He's gold.
Tom Frank:I did, I cheated.
Biz Besket:All right. So let's see here. We got Gabe, we got Griff, we got Rigby. It's Rigby. Who do you like for guard? Who's playing with you now on the guard side? We need a point guard, we need a facilitator.
Chase Husted:I mean Cole Bernardin. He's our facilitator here in Pittsburgh.
Biz Besket:So I wouldn't mind that pick at all. You know what I want to bring them back because I think last year they kind of didn't space the night before in the game.
Tom Frank:That's always the fear with these younger guys. Two hours later.
Biz Besket:I think they know Like they've been through it. I like that. Yeah, I'm going with Cole man. He's going to run the point.
Chase Husted:I like it.
Tom Frank:All right, All right, I got to cross him off here. So Nick is gone, Cole is gone and we'll be right back.

Biz Besket:no, he's back on he's back on.
Tom Frank:Look at him. He looks crystal clear. Now he might be frozen crystal clear like good lord he's in philly. They don't know what's going on there, hey.

Tom Frank:Maybe so, or some good soft practice.
Biz Besket:God, it was good. Hey, are we going back there next year?
Nick Hager:Yeah, what do we know? We don't know anything for certain right now, but it would make sense with the turns of teams getting out there Again, with the two teams that we added to the conference last year. Conference wanted to give them a chance to play in it, so they did this past year. Now it will kind of rotate through and I think we'd be the next ones up. Juniata would be the next one.
Biz Besket:That's garbage. They should have to wait their turn. They should get on.
Tom Frank:Yeah, they should be at the end of the rotation man.
Biz Besket:Get the heck out of here. I totally agree.
Tom Frank:There he is there he is, john, here we go john that was a tough time to disappear here I almost picked without you well, who's you almost kicked? You off the team. I I'm looking at I'm I'm looking at height. We got a six eight guy still on the board, I don't know what kind of shape he's in. We got I got I got a score guard that guy still on the board, I don't know what kind of shape he's in.
John Kelly:I got a 6'4 guard that's still on the board. Alright, give him to me. Great defender, seth Brewer, seth Brewer, it is then.
Tom Frank:Oh, he wasn't there last year, that's right, that's a great pick Damon Rickens. Yes, that worked well together.
Nick Hager:Kelly, you've done your homework, man. That's a good pick, that's a great pick.
John Kelly:That was a good poll. That was a good poll, all right.
Tom Frank:Now, do we go old? Do we go young? I got a lot of good guys still on the board here. Yeah, there are a ton of players out there. Do we take all three BG guys? I mean, we could I mean why don't you?
John Kelly:Yeah, we could, we could, we could, mikey, mikey absolutely.
Tom Frank:All right, let's go. Let's go with Mike.
John Kelly:I like it, mike.
Tom Frank:Monacalvo Do I always. I always say his name wrong. Monacalvo.
Biz Besket:Monacalvo you say everybody's name wrong, I say everybody.
Tom Frank:That's a, that's a way of me saying I love this guy.
Biz Besket:I know it's a term of endearment.
Tom Frank:All right, so we got.
Biz Besket:If Tom messes, then he cares we got three bg guys.
Tom Frank:All right. Team bg blue blue works well. Yeah, all right. So now it's back over here. Yeah, wait, how many guys do we each have.
Biz Besket:I got one, two, three, four, five. I got five.
Tom Frank:Wait matt, how do I got six? Did I miss somebody? Kelly hayes, rick and oh, hey, hey, hey, he's in on our list officially ago all right, all Chase, it's back to us.
Biz Besket:I'm going to go with this one, just because we got a lot of youth on our team.
Chase Husted:I was going to say I think we need to sprinkle in some older guys here.
Tom Frank:They don't like old guys. They don't like old guys.
Biz Besket:He proved that last year. No, no, no, I've changed my tune. I'm going with. I'm going to go with the oldest guy. I'm going with, I'm going to go with the oldest guy. I'm going with another Pittsburgh connection. See, you're going BG, I'm going Pittsburgh. All right, I'm going with Furco. Furco, you're going with Furco? Yes, I am.
Chase Husted:I love that, because I love that he's still playing. He's still playing. I know he's going to be good, good shape. I know he's going to be playing well, so if I know he's going to be playing, well, I like that pick.
Biz Besket:Hey, you can ask your coach too. Chase, if you guys ever need a sub man, I've got a killer elbow Jay.
Chase Husted:Hey, well, griffin LaCarte's our coach, so you can talk to him.
Biz Besket:I guess All right, I'll start.
Tom Frank:Your class of what? 1995?
Biz Besket:Yeah, I just wanted to check on that because you'd be a little bit older than everybody else on this list. I older than everybody else on this list. I'm a lot older but I can still. I still got it, man, all right. All right, hey, I just turned 52.
Tom Frank:There's got to be like a hey, we should say happy birthday to busy. He actually turned 52 this past week friday friday happy birthday man yeah, let's go it's a birthday present, a w?
Biz Besket:all right. So we got furco. All right, chase. What do we got? I'm thinking I want this guy because I think it's going to make Tom mad. Uh-oh yeah, who? Because I think he wants him just for his name alone on his team Downtown Dino Brown, dino Brown.
Chase Husted:That's what I was going to say, perfect.
Tom Frank:That kind of does make me mad.
Biz Besket:Downtown Dino Brown.
Chase Husted:I was just with Dino Brown last night.
John Kelly:That's a good pick. I wanted to put Dino on my team.
Tom Frank:That was my next pick.
Chase Husted:I love that pick Dino's been hooping down here in Pittsburgh too, so I like that a lot.
Biz Besket:Man, I definitely got to get you know what, tom, when you're done making the shirts I need you to make, let's make some shirts for my Pittsburgh Hoops team here.
Tom Frank:Let me just line them up for you, Biz. I'll be the GM.
Biz Besket:I'll pay you for it. You just got to do the work. You're a talented guy. What the hell.
Tom Frank:All right, now you're throwing me off because I was going downtown. Dino Brown, next See. Next see, john. Where are we going next? Here? We got let's, let's, let's, review who we got left. We got Zach, evan, cameron and Duck, is that right?
Biz Besket:is that it? Yeah, it's one two three, four.
Tom Frank:So biz, we're gonna, we're gonna get the picks. Then we've got to go one and one.
Nick Hager:Sorry, I've got to interject there. There is one late addition.
Tom Frank:Oh, and I'm up.
Nick Hager:I like it. What do we got? I text him, just checking in individually with him, and then he wasn't going to be able to make it because he had to coach a fifth-grade basketball game. But the game got. Uh, got moved. Uh, so the one and only jeff berkey will be. Uh, oh, we'll be there. So 2010 grad shooter uh, 2000 point score in high school all-conference player, his junior and senior year.
Tom Frank:If I remember correctly, though, his uh 2000 000 points was questionable in high school. Was that not that episode where there was something fishy about his 2 000 points?
Biz Besket:no, no, man. I think it was somebody who was at like 1999 and didn't didn't finish, or something, wasn't it?
Tom Frank:there was something fishy about his points I don't know if that was him, the kid put up points
Biz Besket:man, that's all I'm gonna say kick and shoot all right, so he's a 2010 wait, who was it that, now that we're reliving this, who was it that was like a point or two shy or something, and I thought that was him, but maybe it wasn't or no, it was a thousand points, maybe, I don't know. Whatever, I don't know, we'll have to go back to the archive.
Tom Frank:All right, I keep losing my captain. Where is he going? Am I here? We?
John Kelly:can hear you, we can hear you, that's all that counts.
Biz Besket:We just can't see you. All right, all right, we got a face for radio, we got Zach.
Tom Frank:We got two picks here. We got Zach, evan Cameron Nate and Jeff Cameron Nate and Jeff.
John Kelly:I mean we need guys who can shoot yeah, I mean one of the best, one of the best shooters I've played with you are no wonder.
Biz Besket:You won last year.
John Kelly:You're good one of the best shooters I've played with in my four years is still on the board. I mean, who is it? It's Cameron Keck.
Tom Frank:Okay, then we're taking him.
Biz Besket:We need shooters, what do you? Got Keck.
Tom Frank:Yeah.
Biz Besket:All right.
Tom Frank:All right, there's a shooter for our team.
Biz Besket:Nice Got a lot of dribblers. Now you got somebody who can shoot.
Nick Hager:Now we got a guy who can shoot. Now let's see here. We got two shooters on the board. After that, pick my opinion. I'm with you.
Chase Husted:Don't give him any ideas, Coach Hager. Coach Hager, I know what I said.
Tom Frank:I know what I said?
Nick Hager:One of them is going be, uh, probably very upset with where he lands in the draft no, I know he's going to be, but we're just gonna be fuel for the fire for that kid.
Tom Frank:So that was the plan I I john, I think we might need to take this guy, because I think he's gonna be bent out of shape right now I mean you.
John Kelly:I mean, if you want to take him, you can take him. You know what? Know what I mean?
Tom Frank:Let's do it. I think he's going to be fired up because we disrespected him, because we all thought maybe he hadn't been playing since he left.
John Kelly:I mean I know where we're going with this. I mean we might as well go there.
Tom Frank:We're taking agent zero.
John Kelly:Yeah, evan Eisenhardt and for the record, that comment I made about Cam was totally to make Evan upset. I'm so going to get a text about that.
Biz Besket:There's going to be an infighting on the team Chase. We might have this before the tip.
Tom Frank:This is all part of the strategy. All part of the strategy, Evan. Welcome aboard Team Blue.
Biz Besket:All right, See that stinks.
Nick Hager:That's it, John. You're not getting any post entries, man.
John Kelly:I didn't get any from him anyway.
Tom Frank:This is spectacular, all right we got three guys left on the board. Is that right?
Biz Besket:So wait, let's see here, if I get two, then you get one, then we're even.
Tom Frank:And I think we already know who has to go last, so I'm just going to take them.
Biz Besket:No.
Tom Frank:But yo, it's how the draft works.
Chase Husted:I think we got to break that rule this year.
Biz Besket:I think yeah, do not care, I'm taking the duck. How can I have a team without a duck? How can I have a griff without a duck?
Tom Frank:I'm telling you right now a duck might not play for you he might not, but he's right, he's on the roster right now he, he might, actually he might force a trade no, no, he's not forcing any trade all right, I'm putting him in yellow we got our nil.
Biz Besket:Coffers are full. I've been collecting money all all off season for this. All right, so wait. That leaves Zach and Jeff. We got Berkey.
Tom Frank:Wait a minute, I thought we were going one and one now.
Biz Besket:No, because if I get two and then you get one, I think that makes it.
Tom Frank:All right, all right. Right, all right, all right.
Biz Besket:Yeah, get that door.
Tom Frank:I think I'm down a guy then, no.
Biz Besket:Hold on. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. One, two, three, four. Yeah well, each have nine. All right, you goober? All right, chase, I'm going to put this on you because I don't want the heat. Engel or Berkey.
Chase Husted:I don't know either of these guys too well personally. Boy, you're saying, hold on a second.
Biz Besket:You said Berkey had 2,000 points in high school.
Nick Hager:Yeah, two-time all-conference. Juniata's junior senior year Berkey.
Biz Besket:Sorry, Chief. So you're over you're going Berkey and Engel man, I just I don't know you. Man, I'm sorrykey and Engel man, I just don't know you. Man, I'm sorry, I'll take Engel. We'll take Engel, We'll take Engel Engel's 6'8".
John Kelly:You realize that, right, guy's a beast in the half court. He's a beast yeah.
Biz Besket:We're not playing half. This is run and shoot baby.
John Kelly:Once we set the offense, throw it into him, let him work.
Tom Frank:Yeah, he's just going to pound your guy.
Biz Besket:Who's he going to work on Chase?
Tom Frank:Chase cut his hair. Chase is not the guy he was last year, Nah that's crap we're going to have.
Biz Besket:we're doing a pregame breakfast. He's going to eat a garbage lid of fries.
Tom Frank:Yeah, and then he's going to pass out on the court.
Chase Husted:Nah. He's got to be thinking about that garbage litter fries for a long time. I can't wait to see that on Saturday night. That's the first thing we're ordering Saturday night.
Tom Frank:Yeah, we're ordering them for the whole place.
Biz Besket:As a matter of fact, if we win, Chase, if we win, I'm buying you that lid.
Chase Husted:That brings you to a whole new level.
Tom Frank:This is where the NIL money comes in, right here.
Biz Besket:I'll buy everybody else on my team a beer.
Tom Frank:Oh, that's interesting, so that you value him more than anybody else on your team.
John Kelly:That's just what he's known for, man. I'm sure everyone else loves to hear that. Oh yeah, that's great, that's great. I guess he can miss 10 shots in a row but, we'll keep him in because it's Chase.
Tom Frank:My guys are treated equally. They all get the same.
Biz Besket:All right.
Tom Frank:They're all part of the team.
Biz Besket:Good for you, man. Hey, listen the team captain. You know how it is. It's not equal treatment. Did the long snapper for the Steelers get the same treatment as Antonio Brown?
Tom Frank:No, that's why the Steelers are out of the playoffs and the Commanders are in Equal treatment.
Biz Besket:Anyway, dude, if I lose this game, I could be out as head coach you might be.
Tom Frank:I think we should have a new role. If you lose two alumni games in a row, you're out, like we bring in another coach all right, a little added pressure.
Biz Besket:Now let me ask you this are we adding any other special?
Tom Frank:rules to this. What do you mean? I don't know. I'm just thinking differently here. Do we want to add any kind of A little added pressure? Now let me ask you this Are we adding any other special rules to this? What do you mean? I don't know, I'm just thinking differently here Do we want to add any kind of special rules? Is there any kind of something off the wall?
Nick Hager:I don't know, do you guys want to play with?
Tom Frank:the shot clock this year. I like that.
Nick Hager:Yeah, I think we do. You could go 30. I mean shot clock, whatever it is. I mean you could go 20 seconds kind of pick up the pace a little bit.
Biz Besket:No, I think we go with a 30.
Nick Hager:24?. 24 is the NBA, yeah.
Tom Frank:Well, we are. This is now pro.
Biz Besket:That's a little yeah.
Tom Frank:John, we all right with that. You going gonna survive this, I mean I, I think I think 24 second shot clock is good.
Biz Besket:I mean we won't pull, we want the, we want the numbers, we want the crowd to be invested okay, 24 second shot corner bullcrap. All right, I like it um, you'll get up to nothing and play four corners.
Tom Frank:No oh I, I've proven that I don't. I don't let up. We don't take the, we don't take the foot off the gas no, you don't yeah't All right. 24-second shot clock is our new rule for this year. I like it. All right, I like it.
Biz Besket:All right, dude, we could do it where one time each per game that they can put either you or I in to shoot a free throw.
Tom Frank:Ooh, I like that too. Celebrity guest shot you like that? How about this Biz? How about this? How about we get one opportunity each half where we can pull anybody, including ourselves, out of the stands to shoot a free throw? One free throw.
Biz Besket:Out of the stands. What are you planning? Anybody that's in the gym I don't like this man. Who do you have coming? Nobody.
Tom Frank:I'm just saying we get one guy, we get one opportunity to sub in for a free throw Anybody in the gym.
Biz Besket:All right, good enough.
Tom Frank:All right, one per half. Who are you bringing?
Biz Besket:I'm not bringing anyone. You're full of shit you know Baron Davis man. If Baron Davis shows up, I'm going to throw.
Tom Frank:One guy gets to shoot one free. Throw each half and maybe we'll bring a little red flag that you can throw the red flag out oh, I like that all right, that's our rules. 24 second shot, clock two 20 minute halves running clock yep, and. And we each get a red flag for both halves to bring anybody out of the crowd to shoot a free throw wait, we get.
Biz Besket:Do we each get a timeout? A half too?
Tom Frank:yeah, how many timeouts do we get?
Nick Hager:I don't think there are limits on timeouts. I don't think we're going to cap the timeouts, sweet All right unlimited timeouts.
Biz Besket:That stops the clock right, like we're going to stop on timeouts.
Nick Hager:Yeah, I mean we may limit, like in the last two, three minutes, this is going to be taking a time.
Tom Frank:He'll be taking a time out every other possession. No, I think we need a limit on time.
Nick Hager:Don't get carried away with it.
Tom Frank:How about four timeouts each For the game For?
Nick Hager:total.
Tom Frank:Half.
John Kelly:Yeah, it got to be each half.
Tom Frank:Okay, each half, each half, four timeouts 30.
Biz Besket:I want a 30.
Tom Frank:They're all 30s, all right.
Biz Besket:All 30s.
Tom Frank:You have to do this, though you can't do this. That's a T.
Biz Besket:Hager. What are you guys? What's your team practice schedule that morning?
Nick Hager:We have a walkthrough scheduled for 10 o'clock up in the IM gym. What's the walkthrough? An hour, is that what that is? Yeah, typically we'll do scout personnel night before, practice night before and then walk through. Maybe get some shots up in the morning of Alright.
Biz Besket:When you're done, just make your way over to Team Gold's bench Love to have you.
Nick Hager:I'll make my way down, down to the gym.
Tom Frank:He's the commissioner of the game. He can't be on either side. He's the official commissioner of the game.
Nick Hager:Like last year, we'll make sure the game gets recorded.
Tom Frank:Oh yeah, I want the recording.
Nick Hager:Be able to get some highlights from that and some lowlights too. So we'll yeah, it'll be good, it'll be good, it'll be very good.
Tom Frank:Let's look ahead of this week. We've got three games this week. We've got the alumni game, obviously at tip-off at 11 am. We do have a Wednesday game at Susquehanna. Then we have the actual alumni game, eagles versus Scranton, at 4 pm on Saturday. Are we done with the Danzigs? Are there any Danzigs left? Just the coach?
Nick Hager:Just the coach, Just Carl the head coach.
Biz Besket:All right, I think one of the. What are the kids' names?
Tom Frank:There's like 20 of them. How does he know all of them?
Nick Hager:Was it Ethan Jackson?
Biz Besket:and I can't think of the third, I think one of them works at my bank.
Chase Husted:They're headquartered out of.
Biz Besket:Scranton yeah, there's a Danzig, I know. I've seen the name.
Tom Frank:I'd give him an elbow as you walk by him.
Biz Besket:I don't see him because they're all in Scranton. I'm in.
Tom Frank:Pittsburgh.
Biz Besket:I'll give him a virtual elbow.
Tom Frank:All right. So we've got two games though Susquehanna, Scranton. Yep, I feel like we might have something in us for Scranton. Yes, how are we looking for the Susquehanna Coach? We healthy, we ready to go?
Nick Hager:Yeah, I mean somewhat healthy Getting into filming everything today, tomorrow. I mean they return a lot of guys from last year, pretty veteran so, and they're that size Skill at every position. So we'll have our hands full, but yeah, we'll be ready.
Biz Besket:Get our guys ready. That's pretty much been the theme of the whole league, right? Everybody's veteran, except for you guys, it seems.
Nick Hager:Yeah you know, I did some A little bit of research Of the Teams we've played so far this year. You know Non-conference seven teams. You know only eight freshmen in the rotation total between those seven teams and in the conference 13 freshmen out of nine teams in the rotation and we're playing anywhere from like eight to nine freshmen. So yeah, old conference. So yeah, it's a little bit different landscape. Got to keep our heads high, we're going to be all right.
Biz Besket:What happens in college Guys leave Guess what, guess who's going to be the old team in the conference soon.
Nick Hager:Well, yeah, the Juniata Eagles, yeah, that's the plan, that's the plan going forward.
Tom Frank:So Chase and John give the team. They need a speech from you guys. What do we need to do? You're going to be there at the game on Saturday. I think that's going to be fun. A little motivation for the guys. They have a lot of alumni in town. What do you tell this team? What do you tell this team to get us a win here?
Chase Husted:um, I'd probably say, like you got a lot of guys coming back who've played the game, been in their shoes, um, been through the highs and lows that they might be experiencing right now. So it's it's bigger than yourself, it's bigger than um, just the guys playing right now. I mean it's a it's, it's a family, it's a brotherhood. I mean we've all been there. So I just say, if anything, play for the guys coming to support you and play for the guys who've been there and who have experienced it prior to where you're at right now. So it's bigger than yourself. That's all I can say. I've experienced that myself, you know. Seeing the guys come out. It's just a different atmosphere when you have alumni there watching you, guys you've played with in the past. So I mean I just say, like, play for those guys, play for each other Love it.
John Kelly:John, yeah, exactly what Chase said. I mean, like it really is a great experience, alumni Weekend, like getting everyone to come out. Once the guys on the team see that they kind of realize, like Greg Chase said, it is bigger than myself. Really, what they've got to do is just go out there, play hard, try to execute and just play for the guy next to them and they'll be fine.
Biz Besket:Yeah, listen, man from Team 1 of Coach Curley, coach curly's tenure, I mean, everybody is tight it's. I haven't seen much like it before. I think it's a great testament to, uh, what's been built by coach curly and coach hager. So you know it's. It's good to actually see it in practice, with all the guys coming back. So I'm looking forward to it. And let's not forget the podcast, by the way.
Tom Frank:It's going to be a great weekend. Alumni, if you're listening, if you're not even on the list, show up, get out there. Maybe we'll draft you last minute. We'll have a free throw contest to see who gets you. But come out, it's going to be a great weekend. We got the Ed Mansberger alumni game tips off at 11 am, followed by a luncheon for the alumni, and then our Eagles versus Scranton at 4 o'clock. We're all going to be there, it's going to be wild?
Biz Besket:Is Ed scheduled to appear, Nick? Do we know? Is he?
Nick Hager:going to be able to make it. Yeah, I think that's to be determined, right. So, yeah, hopefully we can get him there, if not, yeah, hopefully it'll be there.

Chase Husted:No, you should. No turning back, I forgot I didn't mention it earlier, but we play with Jake Holstable too. He's up here. He's still in school. I think he's in his residency now from med school, but we play with him, so he's on our squad. I don't know if he's coming or not, but yeah, you should come. I think we placed fourth in our league last. I think it was the fall league.
Biz Besket:We're in the winter league now, but all right place. Fourth it's good competition, so it's fun. Please don't tell me there were four teams. No, there's like all right 25 teams, I think. Oh, 25, my god man, these guys have chemistry, it's out.
Tom Frank:Do you even want to play it? I mean, well, I'm, I'm, I'm always in for it, biz, because biz it's it's half players, half coach, and I know I got one of those beat you know what sometimes, as a coach, you got to know when not to coach.
Biz Besket:I'm just going to let you know, I'm going to let Griff. He's the coach of your team, so I'm going to. This is I'm excited.
Tom Frank:It's going to be a good time.
Nick Hager:What are the teams now? So who's team blue, team gold? Who's on the team? Do you?
Tom Frank:want to run them down one more time. I'll run down my team. We got on Team Blue. We got Kyle, michael, zach, evan, john, damon, cameron, seth and Jeremy.
Biz Besket:All right, team Gold. As in the gold medal, as in champions, we got Chase, gabe, griff Rigby, bernarding Furco, dino Brown Duck and Berkey Boom.
Tom Frank:It's a good matchup. This is going to be a good matchup. I think these teams are a little bit more evenly matched this year 100% more evenly matched.
Chase Husted:I'm excited Biz did his homework.
Tom Frank:this year I did.
Biz Besket:Well year I did, well the homework I did was just seeing the guys do laughter and knowing what the hell's going on.
