WELCOME BACK TO THE SHOW. IT HAS BEEN A MAGICAL YEAR SO FAR FOR THE BYU BASKETBALL TEAM. JOINING US IS A MAN WHO HAS BEEN THERE EVERY STEP OF THE WAY. THAT'S RIGHT. FORMER BYU GREAT PLAYER. GENEROUS OF YOU TO SAY THAT. AND A COMMENTATOR FOR BYU. FRESH OFF FROM MALL -- MALIBU. I AM THRILLED TO BE HERE. WE GO WAY BACK. THE FIRST INTEREST VIEW -- INTERVIEW I REMEMBER IS WESLEY ROUGH AT THE NCAA TOURNAMENT. YOU ARE NOT THAT OLD. THIS GUY LOOKS YOUNGER TODAY THAN HE DID AT THAT TIME. FLATTERY WILL GE
T YOU EVERYWHERE. THE WINNERS OF 9 IN A ROW. THEY LOCKED DOWN THE TWO SEED FOR THE TOURNAMENT. HOW GOOD IS THIS TEAM? THEY ARE REALLY GOOD. IT IS REALLY FUN. I AM A FAN AND AS A BROADCASTER WHEN THE TEAM YOU ARE COVERING IS DOING WELL IT IS FUN. IT MAKES MAJOR JOB EASIER. YOU ARE WINNING AND EVERYBODY IS EXCITED AND HAPPY ABOUT IT AND THERE IS A LOT OF POSITIVITY. HE IS A POSITIVE PERSON AND FUN TO BE AROUND AND HE MOTIVATES HIS GUYS. THEY ARE PLAYING HARD AND PLAYING WELL. IF YOU HAVE A -- IF Y
OU ARE BYU AND YOU WANT TO COMPETE AGAINST THE BETTER TEAMS IN THE COUNTRY YOU NEED TO HAVE SENIORS THAT ARE GOOD AND PROVIDE GOOD LEADERSHIP. YOU HAVE THESE AMAZING FRESHMEN ONE AND DONE GUYS, THE ONLY WAY TO COMPETE ABOUT THAT IS HAVING THE SENIOR GUYS WHO KNOW HOW TO PLAY AND GET IT DONE. THEY'RE GETTING IT DONE. THEY ARE UNDEFEATED IN FEBRUARY. AND THEY BEAT THE NUMBER TWO TEAM IN THE COUNTRY. THAT WAS CRAZY, WASN'T IT? MAYBE SINCE 1979 I HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT OLD GUYS, WESLEY, WATCHING MY
BROTHER, DEVON, PLAY -- YOU HAVE BEEN TO A FEW GAMES. I HAVE BEEN TO EVERY GAME EXCEPT FOR A TWO-YEAR HIATUS. THE ELECTRICITY OF 20,000 PEOPLE THERE. AND THEN FOR YOUR GUYS TO PLAY LIKE THEY DID WAS LIKE, I HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS BEFORE AND IT IS SO FUN. YOU THOUGHT THAT WAS THE PINNACLE. HOUSTON. I AM IN HOUSTON AND THEY WERE PLAYING A GREAT GAME. WE ARE IN A WEIRD LOCATION. IT IS A BIG PLAY AND I AM STANDING UP READY FOR THE PLAY. IT IS A SHOT AND HE FADES TOWARD MY LOCATION. IT GOES IN AND HE
IS LIKE -- WE LOOK AT EACH OTHER. IT IS NICE TO GO TO THE WEST COAST COWBOYS TOURNAMENT LOOKED -- LOCKED UP. IF THEY WIN THAT THING AND BEAT GONZAGA IN THE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME CAN THEY GET THE FOUR SEED? IF THEY BEAT SAINT MARY'S AND THEN WERE TO BEAT GONZAGA IT IS REALISTIC. WHY WOULDN'T IT BE? NO ONE ELSE IS KNOCKING DOWN DOORS. IF THEY WIN ONE GAME PROBABLY A FIVE. IF THEY LOSE THE FIRST NIGHT I AM THINKING A SEVEN. THEY LEAD THE NATION IN THREE-POINT SHOOTING. THEY CAN SCORE FROM THE OUTSIDE.
HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO CHOOSE? PEPPERDINE LAST NIGHT CHOSE TAKE AWAY THE THREE. THEY WERE KILLED -- BYU MADE 17 THREE'S. YOU CAN'T LET THAT HAPPEN AGAIN SO WE WILL TAKE THEM AWAY AND SO CUT THE THREE'S IN HALF AND THAT MEANS YOU DON'T DOUBLE AND THAT WAS RIDICULOUS. 38 POINTS. 38 POINTS. HE DOMINATED. HE IS A GREAT PASSER OUT OF THE DOUBLE TEAMS. YOU PICK YOUR POISON. IT IS LIKE A ROMEO AND JULIETTE. YOU ARE EITHER GOING TO GET POISONED OR STABBED. ONE WAY OR THE OTHER. YOLI IS A GUY WHO JUST QUA
LIFIED STATISTICALLY BECAUSE HE MISSED NOR CONFERENCE GAMES. DO YOU THINK HE DESERVES THE WEST COAST CONFERENCE PLAYER OF THE YEAR BECAUSE OF WHAT HE MEANT TO THIS TEAM? YOU GIVE A NUDGE TO A GONZAGA PLAYER. THEY HAVE A LOT OF GUYS. THEY HAVE SEVEN GUYS IN DOUBLE FIGURES. LET ME SAY THIS ABOUT YOLI. DECIDED TO COME BACK WHEN A LOT OF PLAYERS DON'T DO THAT. I WAS SO IMPRESSED WITH HIM AND HIS CHARACTER AND LOOK WHAT HAPPENED WITH HIM. EVEN WITH THE SUSPENSION DP -- AND THE INJURY, BEST PLAYER MAY
BE IN THE WEST HAS IMPROVED HIS STOCK I THINK DRAMATICALLY , ESPECIALLY IF THEY WIN A COUPLE GAMES IN THE TOURNAMENT. HE IS MAKING HIMSELF SOME MONEY. NO BETTER REPRESENTATIVE. I HAVE COLD SWEATS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT DREAMING OF HAVING TO GUARD HIM ONE ON ONE. YOU JUST CAN'T DO IT. IF YOU GET A -- IF YOU GET A CHANCE FOLLOW MR. DOUR RABBIT. DURANT. I CAN'T GUARANTEE ANYTHING. YOUR FATHER, HE WROTE BOOKS ON FATHER FOOD. MY FATHER, GEORGE, IS AMAZING. A LOT OF PEOPLE KNOW HIM. HE HE WAS A SP
EAKER OF CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER DAY SAINTS. OBVIOUSLY HE AND MY MOM -- HE PRODUCED DEVON WHICH WAS GOOD AND THE REST OF US WERE MUTTS. YOU WERE GOOD. IT HAS BEEN A LONG SEASON, BUT I HOPE YOU HAVE A LONG RUN IN MARCH COMING UP. THANK YOU. IT IS FUN AND I AM HAVING A GOOD TIME. COME AND SEE US AGAIN. ANYTIME. COMING UP, A LOOK BACK AT HOW THE HIGH SCHOOL STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS WERE WON LAST NIGHT.
