Summary
(00:00-23:24) – Query & Company opens on a Wednesday with Jake Query, Jimmy Cook, and producer Eddie Garrison recapping the Pacers loss to the Celtics last night. They shout out Aaron Nesmith for one of the best performances in his career after joining the program yesterday. Additionally, they discuss the Hoosiers closing out Iowa last night to come up with a win.
(23:24-46:00) – Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton joins Jake Query & Jimmy Cook to provide an update on how his hamstring is feeling today, what the rest of the week looks like for him, shares his frustrations with the 65-game threshold to qualify for season awards, where his joyful personality and unselfishness derives from, if he plans on participating in any of the All-Star weekend festivities, and answers some get-to-know you questions.
(46:00-48:38) – Hour one concludes with Jake and Jimmy discuss the Super Bowl following Tyrese’s comment about his friend Brock Purdy taking on the Chiefs. Additionally, they talk about rock, paper, scissors.
(48:38-1:14:38) – Pacers CEO & President Rick Fuson joins the program to discuss last week’s announcement that he will be retiring at the end of the season for the team. He goes through all the jobs that he’s had along the way with Pacers Sports & Entertainment, provides a behind the scenes look as to what conversations were being discussed when they moved the All-Star Game from 2021 to 2024, and discusses the future of the Pacers within Indianapolis.
(1:14:38-1:34:46) – Jake and Jimmy shift their conversation to the Indiana Hoosiers with Mike Woodson’s team picking up a much-needed win. They discuss the significance of Anthony Leal sticking around. They also talk about the NFL coaching hires with the Seattle Seahawks filling their vacancy.
(1:34:46-1:40:26) – The one o’clock hour concludes with Jake and Jimmy how crazy it is to think that Mike Vrabel and Bill Belichick could not be coaching next year in the NFL after being considered two of the best coaches in the league.
(1:40:26-1:58:13) – IndyStar IU beat reporter Zach Osterman joins Query & Company to provide an update on Malik Reneau and Xavier Johnson. Additionally, he explains the importance of Anthony Leal to the locker room, why he wouldn’t be surprised if Gabe Cupps is the player that starts going forward, and accesses if Indiana has enough opportunities left on their schedule to win games to make the NCAA Tournament.
(2:07:56-2:21:04) – Earlier in the program we had Tyrese Haliburton on the show. We replay the interview.
(2:21:04-2:26:37) – Today’s show ends with the JCook Plays of the Day and JMV joining the guys in-studio to talk about Formula 1 rejecting Michael Andretti’s bid to join in ’25 or ’26 with Andretti Global.
