Here’s what happened Wednesday on G&A…
See U Next Season - Mavs 122, Suns 117. Your Phoenix Suns are now five full games back of 8th-seeded Dallas for the final playoff spot in the West. G&A know the 2008-09 campaign is officially all but over. They have put closure on this season and are anxious to see what happens this summer. Both feel Steve Nash is playing his final season in Phoenix. Ash wanted him gone last off-season. Gambo is looking forward to the rebuilding project-Ash, not so much. John is convinced STAT is likely gone this off-season, as well. He thinks there’s an 80% chance Nash gets dealt. Is there any relief for Suns’ fans knowing the run for a title with this core is officially over? We took calls.
Arizona State Director of Athletics Lisa Love checked in for her weekly visit. She previewed this weekend’s Men’s and Women’s ’Pac-10 tournament in Los Angeles and shared her thoughts on sophomore James Harden being named the Pac-10 Player of the Year earlier this week.
Cornell head basketball coach Steve Donahue joined us to discuss the Big Red’s Ivy League Championship season. Cornell finished 21-9 and 11-3 in conference and will await their destination on Selection Sunday.
Downtime for the Dominican - The Netherlands defeated the Dominican Republic again yesterday 2-1 in 11 innings down in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Gambo thinks this is one of the greatest upsets in sports history, but wonders if anyone cares because it’s the World Baseball Classic. Ash isn’t sure this even made a blip on the national radar. We took calls.
Texas Longhorns senior quarterback Colt McCoy looked back at this past season including UT’s dramatic comeback win over Ohio State in the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl in Glendale. McCoy won the Walter Camp Award and was a Heisman Trophy runner-up this past season. He admitted he was rooting for Florida to beat Oklahoma in the National Championship game.
Edith Morgan, mother of the late Derrick Thomas, shared her thoughts on her late son entering the Pro Football Hall of Fame this year in Tampa. The former Kansas City Chiefs great was a 9-time Pro-Bowler and member of the 1990’s All-Decade Team. Thomas died in a car accident in early 2000.
We caught up with Texas head football coach Mack Brown. The Longhorns were just seconds away from playing for the National Championship this year. He discussed the return of McCoy and several other key players who he hopes will help lead UT back to the National Championship game.
Short show Thursday following the UofA-ASU game. We’ll be joined by ESPN NBA analyst Tim Legler.
