| 0:26.0 | I am. How are you guys? Doing fantastic. Clay is always with us on the Shinarah hotline. |
| 0:31.7 | As a Tennessee fan, almost any fan base has like tons of disappointing moments. |
| 0:36.7 | I know it's kind of a running joke about Tennessee giving you a ton of disappointing moments. |
| 0:43.4 | Where does Sundays lost to Houston rank with a chance to go to the final four and then you guys are done before basically the second media timeout the first half? |
| 0:47.7 | Yeah. |
| 0:48.1 | I think playing poorly in the first half is disappointing. |
| 0:51.5 | I think, look, the four best teams all season ended up in, |

| 1:30.8 | I think we have this crazy perpetual free agency in college basketball, |
| 1:36.5 | which is even crazier, I think, than college football. |
| 1:39.7 | I don't know if you guys would agree with that, but it only takes a couple of guys |
| 1:43.8 | to really kind of turn your team from mediocre into elite in college basketball, whereas, yeah, if you get the best quarterback in college football, that can change things. |
| 1:54.9 | But the rosters are so big in college football that any one or two guys typically don't make a huge difference. |
| 2:03.2 | So it doesn't really feel like given the fact that Tennessee has tons of NIL money |
