What is the significance of Tom Izzo's legacy at Michigan State?
It's the Boomer and Geo podcast from WFAN. Hi, Boomer and Geo coming to you live from the Built Ford Tough studio on the fan and CBS Sports Network. Want to join the show? 888-808-1019. Red Pocket Mobile fan line brought to you by your new ultimate cell carrier, Red Pocket Mobile. 888-808-1019, the number to call if you want to talk some Johnny's or tournament, which we opened up with, done a lot of that. You can always go back on the free Odyssey app and check that out. I do have a question. For you, out of all these teams in the Sweet 16, was there any team that, I don't want to say surprised you, but that you thought was, like, much better than you thought they were going into this? Well, I'll tell you one that surprised me was Texas because when we were down on our trip at Orlando, we had bet Texas against... In the playing game, right?
No, no, no, no, no. It was in the conference tournament. Yeah, it was... No, it wasn't BYU. BYU. No, it was their conference tournament.
How has Rick Pitino transformed St. John's basketball program?
And we ended up taking Texas. It was against Ole Miss. It was Texas-Ole Miss. And they looked awful. Absolutely terrible. A couple of us ended up betting on Texas. And I was like, I can't take this team or take them seriously at all. And that was based on one performance in which I bet on and they lost. But yeah, I'm surprised that they're in the Sweet 16 because I was really not impressed at all with them. Do you have one? You know, it's hard to say. Iowa State. Iowa State, all right. And then also, is the point guard at Tennessee? So you didn't know that Iowa State was as good as they are?
What were the highlights from the St. John's buzzer-beater against Kansas?
I knew that they were highly seeded, but they just look... They just look so smooth, man. Yeah, I know a lot of the guys, Seth Davis and Clark Kellogg, they were all tongue-bathing Iowa State coming into this thing. So I guess it wasn't surprising to me just because of that. But yeah, I mean, I guess at this point, A lot of chalk except for Florida. Florida is the one team that you just didn't have chalk with. They were doing all the Oliver Ryu stuff. Yeah, you know what's amazing also? You've got to remember, you've got Calipari at Arkansas. And then you've got Kentucky getting blown out and getting dismantled. And Arkansas has got Arizona. That would be interesting. Arizona, Michigan. Michigan is really good.
What were the reactions from Rick Pitino and Dylan Darling after the game?
Saw a bunch of their games this year, just the Big Ten stuff, and Maryland couldn't even stay on the court with them. Yeah. So I saw this interview post-game with Tom Izzo, and I'm not sure. If you saw this, just let me know, and then we don't need to play the game. But a reporter asked him a question. And Tom Izzo responded with, that's the highest compliment you could ever give me. And you just extended my career two to three years. What do you think that reporter in that question said for Tom Izzo, who's been around for a million years, has gotten all the compliments in the world, said that's the highest compliment you could ever give me. And you extended my career two to three years. The highest compliment.
So they gave him a compliment about something. Obviously, he continues to be in the Sweet 16. Is it something about the longevity of his success? He said that you could watch any Michigan State team from any era, and they all play the same. That's what he said.
How did the Knicks perform against the Wizards?
Well, this is what Rick Pitino is trying to get done here at St. John's. Right, but I mean, Izzo, for all those years, of course, at the one place. You could put on a tape of Michigan State from 10 years ago, 20 years ago, 5 years ago, and they're all playing exactly the same. Well, that's his system, and he goes after certain personalities, and I think that's what Rick has tried to do here at St. John's. Well, yeah. Try to get the certain personalities that are going to buy in to playing team basketball and being supportive of one another and playing defense. And that's the thing about playing against Tom Izzo all those years and just watching his teams just absolutely dismantle the teams that I would be rooting for at University of Maryland.
I mean, he was an incredible coach.
