David go ahead. Yeah, let's start with Zack Edy here because there was an interesting dynamic that happened in yesterday's elite eight game

0:07.3

Where eating of course he leads the nation in both free throw attempts and makes and he wasn't called for a single file in the first half yesterday.

0:18.0

First 31 minutes of the game.

0:19.8

Ridiculous last night.

0:22.0

Are you in love with Zach EDRC? You know, you loathe by...

0:26.2

I love them. I hate him. I want him launched out of a space cannon. Listen, I'm sure he's a lovely young

0:30.9

man, but he's seven five, he's taller and bigger than anybody else and the officials baby him.
