John Jacobson here with you today.

And we've got our stable of aficionados and athletic analysts.

We are in the middle of that month of March.

And guys, Hoops is spectacular right now.

So we're going to roll through the Jacobson Report today with updates on what's going on.

Yes, I can say March Madness.

During March Madness, I've got engineer Mike Shane here at KXEL.

Mike, was that in the little ringtone?

Oh, Mike did this, yes.

Mike's going to be splicing in.

Let's give a tip of the fedora to the Iowa State Cyclones an impressive win on

Thursday night.

Let's go through the gang here.

Scott Corry.

Iowa State makes Iowa proud.

You and I are big Hawkeye fans, but we have to give a doff of the fedora to that Iowa State team.

Took care of business without a great deal of angst on Thursday night.

Well, that's true, John.

And Iowa State has a very good team.

You know, it's

Matt Garce, he may forget that I actually picked Iowa State to make it to the final four.

I'm still holding to that.

I am going to use that pick as basically a jink to make sure that he gets to the 16 because my bracket looks right now.

It's terrible, but they are playing defense.

They're starting.

Three really did not do a whole lot, but yet they were very dominant.

And they should handle business on Saturday against Washington State later on in the day there at Omaha.

But Matt Garst, Coach TJ has a lot going for him.

And I really hope that when Kentucky fires Calipari here in about two weeks, that they hire TJ just to get him away from Iowa.

We're going to give Matt Garce the word.

Matt, of course, we're here in the Waterloo Cedar Falls, Cedar Rapids area, a little more populated with Hawkeyes perhaps than the Ames area or Western Iowa.

But Matt, there are a lot of Cyclone fans in this neck of the woods.

And of course, this signal, because it's 50,000,

clear watts, carams through every single one of the original Big Ten states, got about 20 states within the AM sound of our voice here.

Matt, how satisfied were you?

Your bride and daughter tweeted out or I should say Facebook posted a wonderful photo of them in attendance there at Hilton West Omaha itself where I was on Thursday night.

That was a great game to go to.

So when

Omaha got all of the first and second round games.

I think the first time they received the bid was in 2007.

I had tickets for that.

Then there was a subsequent event several years later.

I had tickets for that.

And then I bought all session passes for this go-around as well, just because I thought, you know what, Iowa State's gonna, I think they're gonna get.

to Omaha to play.

Out of all of the games that I've been to at CHI for first and second round NCAA games, the game I was at last night while the Iowa State game was easily the largest attendance game.

There was a lot of South Dakota State fans there as well.

And South Dakota State, I was impressed with them.

I think they've got a good team.

I just

I understand why the NCAA does what they do, putting things within driving distance at particular venues.

I just hate the fact that Iowa State, Dredge, and South Dakota State, which is my little sister's alma mater, were all put in the same pot.

Iowa State came out hot in that game.

I think they made nine of their first nine shots.

South Dakota State,

They were competitive in the first half, second half, kind of got away from them.

They did not have the size that Iowa State does inside, and we capitalized on that.

Like Scotty said, our stars or our, you know, starters, I guess, I don't, other than Tame and Lipsy, I don't know that we have a star on the team.

But everybody played a really good game.

It was a fun atmosphere.

There was a lot of friendly banter back and forth in the stands, but Iowa State took care of business.

I'm looking forward to going to that game Saturday night at like nine o'clock, which will require a little bit of discipline on my part to make it through that game.

But, you know, it's a great event for downtown Omaha, for the council boss Omaha area.

I'm hopeful that Iowa State can pull that one off.

Right now we're a seven and a half point favorite, but as Kentucky and Oakland proved yesterday, Vegas doesn't know everything.

So we'll see how this goes.

Isn't that true?

We will talk about some of the biggest surprises of the tournament as we progress, but Chip Readman, you're a proud Iowa State Engineering alum.

had to be some satisfaction last night.

You're also on Omaha and how did Omaha do in hosting the Cyclone, Ken?

Well, Omaha does well.

They always do well.

It's kind of a given.

People don't realize this across the country is that Omaha is probably one of the highest rated facilities to put on any NCAA event.

They have just a unique setup compared to other venues.

across the country with a convention center next to them and then the arena you know right there for everything people don't realize the convention center is unique because they divided into thirds so one third the first third that's closest to the arena is the media section so they have immediate access in and out of the arena so they can watch games and go back and do the reports the second section I believe is

the practice area for the team so they can warm up before the games without having to go out on the floor.

It gives them some practice space.

The third area is where the teams can pull in on the bus without having to go in through the elements, walk through crowds or anything.

They can come in and unload all their equipment and get ready to go down to the locker rooms.

Nobody else has that kind of a facility to provide that kind of access for the teams and for the media.

They always love Omaha.

That's why Omaha got the sweet 16, what do you call it, the third and fourth rounds here a couple years ago, just because of the facility they have.

You know, that's a great point, Chip Reidman, on the Omaha background.

John Stewart and I have been watching some of the games from a place in Omaha called DJs, which literally has true TV in every single

NCAA game is on there and John Stewart literally has been watching all our parts of every single game and John joins us right now John Stewart and Johnny Iowa State really looked good

Last evening we were watching that and your take on how Iowa State did and how far you think they might get in the tournament, John Stewart.

Well, I think they did very well last night.

You know, each team it seems like always has a little bit of a low period and Iowa State was playing well, especially defensively at the beginning of the game.

offense was not quite as good at the beginning, but once the offense got going, it wasn't very long until they had a double-digit lead.

And they did make some good shots right out of the gate there too, and that helped them.

Tim Grover, you're the Macroquina Marvel.

What say you?

Can you scrape up a few Iowa State fans from the Hawkeye Kingdom over there, where you are by the Mississippi River?

Oh, very much so.

Backed over in our neck of the woods, the Fuhrer Box, including Al Fuhrer Box, who is an Olympian in the 70s from here.

They are a longtime cyclone family there, and we have a lot of our farmers over here, part of the ag fraternity there in Iowa State.

So, yeah, very impressive win by the cyclones last night.

57% from field goals.

47% from three points, five players and double figures, and Omaha looks like it's having a great regional.

It's kind of interesting Matt mentioned that he had all three of those in the same bracket, but I think that helped your crowd a lot.

I think maybe the committee kind of factored that in a little bit.

There's nothing worse than having a region on the seats are empty.

Yeah, you know, that's really true.

It appeared to us John.

We were not in the Omaha arena.

We were watching 64 screens basically and closed down the place on Thursday literally till the last ball dropped, but Johnny the crowds looked good and of course

There were some fans, not just at the sports bar where we were, but there were fans there at the arena.

Let's talk about Drake.

A disappointment, I thought, John, you and I watched that, and Drake was in control of that game for almost the entirety of the second half.

At one point, their opponents, of course, Washington State,

Had it only made one of their last 12 trips down the court Drake couldn't expand that lead beyond six or seven points max and then some Deadly turnovers, but worse of all Drake Drake would have still won that game if they'd have made free throws.

I was so disappointed for them I thought they had that game in the bag and you could just kind of start to see it slipping away your your comments on that Drake game

I can't add a whole lot to that, except that I always remember in many post-game interviews, the great Gene Cady used to say, they call those free for a reason.

And, you know, when

his team would shoot free

throws poor, he says they call those free for a reason.

But I think everybody around here, you know, they were hoping that

that Drake would win that ball game.

I think they wanted to see an Iowa State Drake game.

They were aggressive calling fouls.

They were really aggressive calling fouls.

Both teams had 10 fouls fairly early in the second half.

Drake was in terrible foul trouble, you know, both at the front court and back court level.

I think that really hurt there.

There was a pivotal, terrible call.

When, uh, is it Enright, their guard, stole that ball legitimately with about two and a half minutes left, maybe even left, was that with 45 seconds left?

Yeah, pretty close to the end.

Yeah, yeah, it was for, and that would have made a huge difference because it was only a one-position game at the time.

And

it was an arc steel, so it would have been a direct layup.

Yeah, yeah, and I don't know.

I didn't see any contact here.

I don't know how they called that.

I think that call really hurt them.

Well, let's see what the rest of gang think.

Let's give Garcia a shot here.

Garcia, did you get a shot to look at Drake on Thursday?

I was really disappointed for him.

I thought they had that game in hand.

So I stayed after the Iowa State South Dakota State game, I stayed for the first half of the Drake game.

And Drake look at, they were pretty much in control.

And

they had a six point lead at one point, the second half.

And then unfortunately, as everybody has alluded to, they kind of let that slip away.

You talk about free throws, Drake shoots 42% for the game, six of 14.

Washington State to 77 percent, 17 of 22.

I

really was looking forward to Drake versus Iowa State.

I thought that, again, as Tim Grover alluded to, you've got all these fans here.

Drake versus Iowa State, that would be another very

very well attended in here in Omaha.

I think Iowa State will have a lot of fans in the stands here Saturday, particularly with Drake being out.

I think Iowa State fans will buy up all those tickets because it's on a weekend and it's two and a half hours to aim from here.

So I really was hoping that Drake would win that.

That being said,

Washington State had a great season, kind of a magical season for them.

They did.

So

that should be a good game.

But Drake, I'm sure they're kicking themselves this morning when they get out of bad bad.

Hey, we had one basically in the bag.

Yeah.

Play, which is the nature of basketball.

Yep, it is.

Well, and you know, Matt, as long as

Tony Bennett has been at Virginia.

He was at Washington State prior to that and yesterday's game was the first NCAA tournament win for Washington State since Tony Bennett coached him.

And that goes back to what, 06?

2008.

2008.

Wow.

Well, Scott Corey, a disappointment for Drake when DeVries was sitting on the bench there during the defensive series in those last couple of minutes, you know, that wasn't good.

And then the big forward had fouled out and good grief, 36 free throws.

They were blowing the whistle a lot.

And I think that's steel by Enright.

That was a terrible call, but it is what it is.

But Drake,

You know, John told me, Scott, that he felt good about Drake because they've been in so many close games and ground it through, but they just couldn't quite grind through last night, Scott.

Well, I think it just proves my point that after the coaching collapse of Coach DeVries, he is prime candidate to coach at Iowa with that

type of

slap in March.

You know, moving forward, if he does move on, I would look for Coach DeVries to either end up in Michigan or from what sources on social media are talking about now from ESPN and Fox Sports that Oklahoma State is now targeting him.

Which means his son will actually then transfer down to that program as well.

But yeah, heartbreaking loss, but

as an Iowa fan, we've all seen that kind of stuff before.

We have Chip Reidman.

I saw Drake play in person against Belmont earlier this year.

They look solid and they just, the free throws killed them last night as, I'm sorry, on Thursday night, as Garsty said, six to 14, my goodness, if you make that 12 and 14, you win or you're in overtime.

Chip Reidman.

Yeah, that's where teams sometimes live and die Sometimes it's a free throw line or sometimes it's the three pointer that makes a difference in the game We'll be talking about another game where some wild things happen there Going back to the Iowa State game Matt.

What time did you say that the Iowa State game is on Saturday?

I've got I've got five 10 on here, Oregon plays at 840.

I thought my wires crossed

here.

Okay.

Okay.

Yeah, I would

and that's my fault

Okay, Tim Grover

hey people to get

yeah at that.

That's right

people to get lost

on that.

Yeah later on this afternoon here in this evening here on Saturday Tim Grover a sad ending for Drake.

We were all looking for that cyclone bulldog matchup Yeah, it was a great

effort.

I I felt the game change from Brody got run Brody fouled

out.

Yep, it totally totally absolutely true.

I rebounded three blocks.

Yep

And Drake had two guys foul out.

The foul for the game was Drake 21, Washington State 13.

They shot eight more free throws.

But everybody is right on the mark, though.

You've got to make those free throws.

Because they only lost the second half, 33 to 32.

All you needed was some more free throws made.

Obviously the rafts weren't given giving them any breaks either.

No, they weren't Johnny

and they they missed those free throws at several of them at a time when Washington State was going one for 12

Yeah, you know they exactly and

they were in the lead by a handful

You know, they could have pretty easily lengthened that lead to eight or nine or maybe even ten points.

And when you get to that point and you're down in the two and a half to three minute area, you know, you can maybe even take the air out of the ball just a little bit and stuff.

But Matthew, you did see some history, though, down there.

I can't remember what the guy's name is now.

For Illinois, got the tenth triple double.

in NCAA tournament history yesterday down in Omaha.

Marcus, whatever his last name is.

do do mask or dumb ask or something like that.

I can't I can't remember what it is.

It's either it's either D. A. M. A. S. K. or D. U. M. A. S. K. and I can't remember which it is.

We do have to mention our neighbors along the other river the Creighton Blue Jays.

Obviously they are also playing in the same venue that Iowa State and Drake were playing and Creighton is the number three seed I believe and they took care of this.

business.

The other day, Scotty, your comments on Creighton.

Well, if this is going to be the year that Creighton can make a run to the Final Four, it has to be this year.

They have all the talent in the world and basically their bracket is lining up where they should be able to make a run.

It could be very interesting on Saturday where Creighton takes on their former coach Dana Altman over at Oregon.

So that would be a very interesting style.

We know Chip would kind of go into a little bit more detail about the scenario where Altman left.

That jilted a lot of Creighton fans.

And then, you know, we know that McDermott left Iowa State to take Creighton job.

So it kind of glums all full circle there, Chip Reedman.

Yeah, Chip you got a hand into Altman.

He knows how to coach come tournament time.

He was clutch Coaching Creighton to all those Mo Valley Tournament Championships even when they didn't win the conference outright He ran the table again in the tournament this year the last Pac-12 tournament ever when otherwise he would not have gotten a bid and a surprising upset win yesterday he took care of business pretty well and

Johnny and I were watching that game Johnny was I behaving in the midst of all that sea of blue those Creighton fans yesterday at DJs.

You were there to witness

As long as it kept stuffing him with food.

We were all right You know kind of settled him down a little bit, but I was not surprised by the game at Creighton Scotty could probably remember when Akron's coach John Grosje

was coaching the Illinois fighting the Lion Eye and the game was very similar which is the reason he didn't last at Illinois very long.

The all out press looks good and stuff but many times it tires his players out and they usually have a period in the second half where they just don't do anything.

And

that's

exactly what happened.

John and I had a co-worker down there.

This

is going

to be a close game.

I said, this is going to be a 20-point

game.

You did.

You

did.

And it wasn't a 20-point game at the end.

But with about six minutes left, I think Creighton is ahead either 18 or 19.

Well, I want you to know I was cheering most seriously for the Akron Zips in a hostile crowd, and I was loud and boisterous about it.

And so I upheld my part, Chip Regman.

What say you about the Blue Jays?

You are a big Blue Jay fan out there in their Omaha arena, which is their home.

place there.

How do you think they're going to continue in the tournament ship?

Well, it was a very

interesting game when you look back at it.

Akron came out on fire.

Yes, they did.

They were five for nine on three pointers.

Creighton was three for three early on.

And Akron was pretty much, you know, punch for punch, sinking them just as fast as Creighton was or vice versa.

Creighton had to sink them to stay in the game.

It was just an insane game the way it was starting.

I didn't think

that Creighton, excuse me, that Akron be able to hold up as well as they did.

And by the end of the first half, Creighton started to assert a little bit of a dominance in the game and then came out in the second half and pretty much blew Akron off of the floor.

Some of the interesting things that you got to look back on, and Matt, when you look at that game against South Dakota, Scheierman, you know, he was from South Dakota State.

You got to wonder,

how that game would have gone if he was still at South Dakota State.

One thing I'm going to point out that was, they actually did show it during the game, that Sherman has now made NCAA history.

He's the first player to get 2,000 points, 1,000 rebounds, 500 assists, and 300, yeah, 300 three-pointers.

No one has ever reached that kind of a plateau.

as far as offensive production, and he managed to double-double in that game, although Clark Brinner had the most points at 23 and Alexander at 19.

But they had no bench points on that game, which is really kind of alarming, because that's been an issue through the whole season.

They've kept these five starters in most of the game, so you have to wonder when they have this rematch against Altman and bringing him in as to how that's going to hold up.

And, you know, another point about Altman, there's

two 11-seeds that won yesterday.

They always talk about the 5-12s being an upset.

The 11-seeds came out pretty good yesterday with two of them and then you got one 14-seed that actually pulled out of a win and knocked off Kentucky, which I'm sure busted a lot of people's brackets pretty bad.

Yeah, I think I think I think it did Matt Garst, Universitas Cratoniana How what's the prospects for the gentlemen going forward?

They did take care of business Thursday with a decent Creighton crowd there in attendance

Creighton looks good.

They didn't look as as Chip said earlier not look great to start a while that Akron was

shooting kind of out of their minds at the beginning.

So that was a close game.

Yeah.

But, you know, Creighton, they, hey, you got to play 40 minutes.

They figured it out.

Taylor Sharman had 15 points and 13 rebounds in that game.

I agree with Chip.

I'm curious if he would have stayed with

South Dakota State, how the Iowa State game would have gone.

I think that would have been a lot closer.

I still think Iowa State would win that.

But interesting on Akron, the Akron Zips are 0 and 6 in NCAA tournament games after the game Thursday.

It's hard for Akron because they're in a one-bid league.

You're going to be a low seed.

You know, that's tough.

But one other thing I will say during the Iowa State game, they had on the Jumbotron, the Oakland versus Kentucky game during timeouts and all this stuff.

And then when that game went down to the end and the Iowa State game was still going on, that place went nuts.

I

mean, everybody was standing up cheering.

That was a cool moment.

That was really fun to see Oakland beat Kentucky.

So I know I went kind of off the rails there, but that was a neat thing to be at and to hear.

No, we got to talk about that.

Johnny, all I will say on that is Kentucky, up until Thursday, under Calipari, has had the most sweet 16, elite eight, and final four appearances over the last 20 years of any team.

But do you think he's on the ropes, John Stewart?

I don't think he's probably on the

ropes.

Two years in a row of first round

dumps.

There are a lot of fans, I'm sure, that are very, very upset.

But as far as Oakland is concerned, try this on for size.

I was listening to their coach driving out here this morning, and the player that made 10 threes yesterday has shot this year 347 threes and eight tubes.

Try that

one on, guys.

Wow.

Tim Grover, that's some shooting.

Tim, how far do you think Creighton goes?

And were you surprised that Tucky for the second consecutive year gets bounced by an incredibly high double digit seed?

Yeah, so I didn't get to watch the Creighton game.

What sticks out in their box scores is 58% from three-point range.

That's got to be a Soviet national team record.

Yeah, I expect them to go quite a ways.

And yes, the upset of Kentucky is, well, that's what we have the tournament for.

I would like to say, though, that guy that makes all those three pointers, he does have a beautiful Soviet oligarch error.

just like McDermott does.

He could be something too.

I don't know what's going on with the Soviet Union.

It scored a lot.

Now they're getting the three pointers.

I don't know what's going on there.

Guys, you're listening to the Jacobson group here.

John Jacobson here in studio with Mike Shane and John Stewart.

And on the line, we've got Scott Corey, Chip Reedman, Matthew Garst, Tim Grover.

It is the Magnificent Seven here in our own right sponsored by Midwest Renewable Energy, LLC.

It's where Iowa comes to talk, News Talk 1540, KXEL.

We'll do the Hawkeyes because we gotta talk

about a victory that our men had this week.

They're still playing and there's a reason to get motivated in the NIT, not just for history, John Stewart, but because that gives a team more time to practice, more time to play, more time to work in their grooves.

Iowa with a rebuilding younger team anyway this year.

John, they were in friendly confines at Carver Hawkeye.

Some people showed up, they got a solid win.

Yeah, so Iowa played really without, I'm going to say without a down period.

You know, they just- Sanford

sure played extremely well.

They

were consistently scoring the whole game.

They didn't have any of those periods that they had sometimes where they go four minutes with four points or four minutes with two points or something.

They didn't have any of those.

It was good enough to keep them in the lead by double digits sometimes with at least high single digits and really were kind of at arm's length the whole game.

Scott Corey, does it make any difference to the men's program that that etched a 19th win and that they play another game at Carver Theoretically to get that 20-win season?

Well, I don't think it really does.

I think, unfortunately, we're at the end of the Fran McAfrey era.

There is a lot of Fran fatigue out there.

He does have a game on Sunday against Utah.

And then if he does win that game, there will be another game in Iowa City more than likely after that.

But it's just talking to Iowa fans across the state and across the country.

The men's team is basically an afterthought right now and that's sad to see this

move

forward.

Yeah, and you're

talking almost 25 years now since the last sweet 16 and that's unacceptable for a big 10 school.

But we don't have to worry much longer because I know in our next segment we're going to talk about the real tournament and the real hope for Iowa nation.

Yes, we are.

You are exactly correct.

Matt Garst, talk to us.

Does it make any difference?

I share Scott's assessment.

I do think there's some friend fatigue.

I do think the era is winding down and just the level of passion comparing the women's to the men's program from what used to be, my goodness, in the old days, Iowa was known as a basketball school.

It has been a quarter

Century of underperformance really, Matt, under various different coaches.

I agree with everything you and Scottie said there.

I do think there is value in the NIT because you've got a lot of young players that can continue to play and get some honorable reps.

Peyton Sanford had a great game against KZG.

The guy had 30 points and he made

Seven three-pointers.

Yep.

I mean in case I'm not a fan of their coach for a lot of reasons mainly because I was stayed Homer But you know, hey there there's value to continue to play in the NIT I I think that some of these team while there was a laundry list there was like 14 teams or something that said that

You know, we got an NIT invite.

We're not going to do

that.

I think

that's

a mistake.

I do

too.

From a developing younger players, if you're going to take the, hey, I'm taking my ball and going home, I'm not going to play anymore, mentality.

If you struggle the following year to a certain degree, that's on you as a coach or a university because you chose to bat.

play in a postseason tournament and attempt to develop your team going forward.

So I think Iowa did the right thing in agreeing to play in that and they took care of business against case data.

I mean, heck, they scored 91 points in that game.

It's

not a slouch.

You know, the game at Utah will be interesting, but as somebody else said, you know, if Iowa wins, I mean, they're back in Iowa City and

Hey, keep playing, keep developing your kids, and let's see what happens.

Yeah, well said, Matt Garst.

Tim Grover, you have the final word before we head into our final segment here.

Yes, it was a great night for the Iowa boys there.

Cricky had a double-double, too.

So we had two great efforts from them.

But yeah, I kind of have to agree with everyone else.

Attendance for that game is only 4,532.

Wow.

People can do that.

That is not good.

Yeah, I think we're... You know, I like Fran.

Fran's style is you either live in fame or go down in flames.

We've seen some fame and we've seen some flames in there.

With that poor of attendance, it's hard to see

We need a change.

I don't think we really had a recruiting advantage since George Ravling was here and Tom Davis lived off of George Ravling recruiting

at the

start of that.

I think we got to get a recruiter.

Yeah, I think that's really well said.

Well, we're going to save the best for last guys, our Iowa Hawkeye women, a team for the ages and how I will miss Caitlin Clark and

Kate Martin and Molly Davis and you know Hannah Stilke's obviously coming back but we're going to be losing Gabby Marshall, Sid, Affolter's probably going to be playing because Molly's not back 100%.

Guys, I'll set the table here and say I think Iowa got put at a huge disadvantage in a brutal bracket and they're going to have to one way or another get through

the likes of K state possibly in a third time this season, possibly having to go through LSU of course before even getting into the.

Final four and there's just Colorado is no slouch Scott you've talked about it.

You you have a certain quote that you've said about this women's team But the bracket the bracket tears did them no favors.

What do you think their prospects are?

I'm a little nervous.

I'll be honest

Well, as a lifelong Hawkeye fan, I'm always nervous about every game.

And when the bracket came out and I saw how the potential matchups looked like, I said this will either be proven Iowa's nightmare or it will prove Iowa's destiny.

And just to prove it is Caitlyn Clark's world and we're living in it, just real quickly, I'm going to read a couple of stats.

Iowa's on this afternoon will be a 36.5 point favorite against

Blue Cross.

But what was amazing is ticket sales at Carver Hawkeye Arena were north of $4,000 a seat.

Oh my goodness.

They're just sold out.

And what is also amazing, I want to encourage everybody, even if you're not a Hawkeye fan, go to ESPN and read Wright Thompson's story about Caitlin Clark in Iowa finding its

faith in the process.

It was a moving read.

It took me about 30 minutes, very long, but at the same time, it showed the fears, the tears, the joy, and the history that we're living in.

And as we move forward, this is going to be a team for the destiny.

I said it before and I said it again.

If team only goes as far as the supporting cast, can it help Caitlin?

Yes.

Caitlin is that Alpha Apex Predator.

She will do whatever it takes.

And there was a couple great quotes in that story.

that I'd like to get everybody's thoughts on that.

One was talks about how she was trying to bring in the new teammates and things like that and how she had to learn much like Michael Jordan had to learn when he went into the NBA about she is so fast with her mental capacity that she's playing three to four seconds faster than anybody else on the court.

And for her to understand that it's not her teammates fault, it's just she's just that good.

But

There was a couple of moments you could tell in that story that really galvanized this team, and I think it's going to make a team of destiny.

They talked about the Ohio State loss that we all talked about here in February, where Iowa was upset with some questionable calling.

And then also, after the end of the overtime, Clark gets knocked down by an Ohio State fan.

And after that game, Kate Martin of all people, Kate Martin was so mad how that game went down.

she was going to fight everybody at ohio state in that uh... in that story and she talked about that and she talked about how old grady the uh... the uh...

yes

and on some heroes on the uh... front line has really improved your game and then at the end of the day when you have uh... pat mackinac if you coming in you have the sd and holly roll will be katelyn clark and i was personal reporter moving forward

And then on Thursday night of all places at Wells Fargo Arena in Des Moines.

I don't really care for his music.

I'm more of a George Straits fan.

But when Tim McGraw came out and wearing a Caitlyn Clark jersey, that arena erupted.

It is showing everybody how much this team has galvanized the entire country.

And as we move forward, it's going to be

how Clark, Martin, and Gabby can put it all together because during that game, the championship game against Nebraska up in Minneapolis, I sit in the text message, I was sick to my stomach, but what's about two minutes to go in regulation, there was a moment when Gabby, Martin, and Clark all looked at each other and they said, this game ends now, we are not losing and we're going to win this thing.

And that is the mentality that they need to have moving forward.

And Hannah Stalke, in the front line, she needs to be the dominant player she can be.

And let Clark be Clark.

Let Gabby be Gabby.

And let Kate be Kate.

Well said, Scott Corey.

Just a great wrap up of an analysis.

Tim Grover, great comments by Scott Corey.

Tim, how far do you think the Iowa women will be able to go?

I think the people putting the bracket together, they did such a good job with Omaha as far as the teams were traveling, but obviously I was stuck in a flyover bracket where they really, really loaded it up.

They also got Kansas State in there, yeah, two in the same bracket.

Yeah, they're tough.

Yeah, I think they got greedy looking for, you know, a big audience, a big

type match-up that's going to draw ratings the weekend before the final four on top of it so i think they the bracket makers galogue with the five flyover bias got a little bit greedy for the ratings but uh... yeah i can't be anything less than that uh... l q r k h u match-up to see who goes to the final four the final four may almost be uh... like a uh... uh... curtain call or non-core

yeah like almost anti-climatic

yeah

yeah that game so they might have overdone it the way but i think a falter is going to come to the front here molly davis has done real well but i think molly davis put some playing time away from her and because i kept wondering she seems to be a better player than she was showing and the the big 10 tournament showed that

yeah yeah good

point gradient all falters games are up so

We

might be worrying too much.

Okay, John Stewart, I'm going to let you have the final word here.

Hawkeye women, John, what's your sense?

I kind of think with the bracket that they have and the way they've been playing and stuff, I think anything above the eight is probably a bonus.

I think they could probably get to the elite eight.

I'm not sure they can get any further than that.

Yeah, that's kind of where I am.

I think elite 8, but boy, these games, again, if you've got Colorado, K-State, LSU, I don't know that they'll get any officiating breaks against LSU.

I hate to be a cynic.

Scott, do you think they'll get a fair shake when push comes to shove with a refereeing?

You know if Iowa could get the treatment that ESPN is known for giving other teams for for viewership We've seen it the other night a the Kansas game get questionable calls Iowa deserves a questionable call and I'm gonna say it right now I'll sacrifice the wrestling program the football program and the men's basketball program I'll let them go in the tank just so that Iowa can win the national champion this year

This year with Caitlin Clark.

It would be great.

I'll tell you, I have been impressed with the development of the supporting cast during the big 10 season, John Stewart.

They've all come on.

Hannah Stilke has improved dramatically inside the paint.

And Coach Bluter has shown that if they're all going to key on Kate, feed it down low and let Hannah make those layups, John Stewart.

Yeah.

You know as far as her improving, you know, we saw her at the beginning of the year the end of last year a little bit sometimes when she'd have to come in and There there were games.

She couldn't even catch the ball in there hardly Yeah, and she has she's improved a lot as far as being able to control the ball in the lane She's even become

at least a decent passer out of the post

well and

it's doubled

and the Scotty says it's Gabby March all because she is hitting her stride just in the nick of time

They this team does have a chemistry so go Hawkeye women guys.

What a great What a great confab here we had our thanks to Mike Shane Scott Corey Chip Reidman Matthew Garst Tim Grover and Johnny Stewart You're listening to Jacobson Group on KXL listen to this podcast.

John Jacobson here with Mike Shane, the one, the only, the inimitable ringtone that he has earned through his broadcast.

Excellence of half a century, Mike Shane.

What a radio.

Maven, he is.

Well, we all thank the good Lord that we're alive and kicking the day and this is our segment where we bring the great wonderkins, the great men that are making so much progress in American healthcare.

Dr. Edward F. Fogarty and Joseph Casarino, studio audience welcoming back our experts.

These guys know how to bolster our immune system and how to use hyperbaric therapy to reverse some of the medical calamities of our time.

Welcome back.

Dr. Fogarty, how are you, sir?

What's up, Ted?

We're coming out here in Western Nebraska thinking about how this is the exact area where I figured out how to reverse dementia.

and just

to go forward.

Doc, when I tell people that guys like you are working on and having success in reversing dementia, stroke damage, they're incredulous.

Repeat again what is happening.

We are making progress here.

Yes, my research colleague at LSU, Dr. Paul G. Arch, figured out in 2001 how to reverse dementia with mild hyperbaric therapy.

And he and I went on further to

come up with all sorts of protocols for not just the dementia reversals, but for bringing babies back to walking and talking status after having suffered from severe anoxic brain injury.

And, you know, the entire world of medicine has neglected, neglected the power of our mitochondria.

It is literally the mitochondria that control whether we end up with cancer in a lot of cases.

The mitochondria are powerhouses, the literal cylinders.

of all of our cellular energy are the reasons why we have severe diseases developing in elderly patients like dementia and so it is a very simple concept that everyone in medicine wants to ignore and neglect but our mitochondria

are the foundational organelles.

We got to move forward in the 21st century here.

We got to stop practicing organ-based medicine, really.

We got to start practicing organelle-based medicine.

And, you know, the pandemic has provided an incredible opportunity to understand some of these things.

And I'm putting KXEL into the medical literature, John.

And thanks for your helping me communicate these facts from the North Dakota CARES Act grants for

countermeasures for COVID-19, which is they are literally my same protocol that develops to treat dementia.

This is extraordinary.

They're hinged on regrowing a healthy population of mitochondria inside of every cell.

And what do we need to do that?

Well, we need hyperbaric therapy, and we also need glutathione amino acid precursors such as

Promune Immune Formulation 200, which everyone listening to my voice, you can get that at thebestimmunesupport.com.

And I use it, my wife uses it, and thankfully we have been healthy during this winter.

I believe in this stuff, I really do.

Well, absolutely.

And my mentor, Dr. Albert B. Crumb, at the start of the pandemic, he had filed five years previously for a patent.

for anti-viral claims on his formulation of Mother Nature's recipe for intracellular glutathione synthesis.

He finally got that patent to come down February 19th of 2020, and he is a national treasure.

And at some level, so is the whole state of North Dakota that went with me on creating these medical countermeasures based on Albert from Spromium Immune Formulation 200, all-natural amino acid precursors for glutathione.

And then my bio...

engineering of supercharging all of that, intracellular glutathione expression, by coupling it with hyperbaric therapy.

And

again, those are the simple protocols that I developed out here at Lake McConahan, Western Nebraska, to treat my old friend and old baseball coach Bobby Koska and his wife, how to reverse Bobby's dementia after he suffered from a post-surgical neuroinflammatory syndrome that took him from a normal old baseball coach

Making great jokes with Yogi Beres style one summer and then the next summer he's totally in communicative Wow, and then and then all we did was we put a hyperbaric air therapy chamber in the family home my wife Ruthie Koska how to run the chamber as she runs our chamber for our kids and every every every family in every every home in this country needs to have not hot tubs but hyperbaric air spots

I

agree,

Dr. Edward F. Fogarty.

Well Doc, we got a surprise for you.

We've been joined here.

Now we've got

Kirk Spock and McCoy, Joe Castorino, who we'll get to momentarily, but the great honorable Dr. David Hartstich has joined us, erstwhile colleague in the Iowa legislature, ER and geriatric physician, par excellence, Dr. Hartstich, welcome back to show, not only that, you're a legal champion for us, fighting for all of those

good doctors of courageous conscience that had literally the best records during COVID of saving the most lives.

And Doc, you've used hyperbarics and talk to us today.

How are things going at your end?

You're right along the Mississippi River with an easy driving distance of anybody living near our Waterloo or Cedar Rapids transmitters.

Absolutely.

A lot of my patients

come from a perhaps four and five-hour drive to get to my clinic.

And because they see the importance of the hyperbaric.

And I think Ted Fogarty does not choose his own enough, particularly in our understanding of this organelle-based medicine.

And he's talking so much in terms of the importance of hydrogen and Nobel gases.

This is something he doesn't talk much about.

The reality of it is, this is the cutting edge of medicine.

And I'm just, I'm flabbergasted.

I'm really honored to be mentored by him.

And he's absorbed so much from Paul Harsh and Chrome, who are real

superstars in this area.

You're a superstar too, Hartsuch.

I know I can point without going into HIPAA issues here.

I will just say to our audience, the guy is a brilliant diagnostician.

Hartsuch always thinks comprehensively and outside the box.

And Doc, I want to thank you for leading the legal charge to protect these courageous doctors of conscience who incredibly were persecuted for having the best cure rates during COVID.

precisely because you thought outside the box and used the types of things that Fogarty won CARES grant.

awards for

yes absolutely uh... i think for my my legal challenges think it's going very well and uh... a legal hurdle is going to be coming up in about ten days is my brief uh... to the supreme court uh... regarding jurisdiction of the court in this case and uh... basically the attorney general's office and everything in the power to defend the board and their only defense is judge you have noted you have no jurisdiction

And I think that's a ridiculous concept.

They have never once argued any fact that I put before the court in this case, and only that the judge has no jurisdiction.

And I think my arguments are on my side, the court has jurisdiction.

Here with Dr. David Hartsuch and Edward F. Fogarty.

Well, let's bring in the third leg of the stool, Joseph Casarino coming to us from out east.

He is going across the country with his news on these glutathione precursors.

Joe Casarino, welcome back to the show.

You're in August Company again today.

Good morning, John.

Good morning, Dr. Hartsuch and Dr. Fogarty.

Nice to be with you.

again today.

The great Dr. Hot-Such had said that the H-Bot is cutting edge and he's spot-on, as you know, and so is Pro-Mune Immune Formulation 200.

I'm sure they would both agree.

It's also cutting edge, and like you said, many people cannot grasp and comprehend how real H-Bot is for treatments these days.

Pro-Mune Immune Formulation 200 is doing the same thing.

Would you not agree, Dr.?

Yeah, I would say that it's very important to point out that it works synergistically.

with the H-Bot in that the pearl mu with the precursors of the glutathione go intracellular.

And what the H-Bot does is it promotes the synthesis of glutathione from its precursors.

That's what the magic of H-Bot is.

And so it's

a

combination of the two, which I think is such a powerful force.

for combating disease and inflammation.

And for our pedestrian folks listening, like me, Dr. Fogarty HBOT stands for Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy.

Is that what we're talking about here?

Yes, there's an umbrella term of hyperbaric therapy.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is primarily used in the medical clinical setting.

You know the University of Iowa has a great hyperbaric oxygen therapy unit that's run by the anesthesiology team there but the government in particular and kind of the collusion with

The medical insurance system has restricted all use of hyperbaric oxygen chambers in the great state of Iowa to basically carbon dioxide poisoning, which is basically a mimic for anactic brain injury in a child like Eden Carlson.

So if anybody wants to go check my math out here, do a search on hyperbaric Eden and then add in harch or Fogarty and you will pull up the greatest

case report of this miraculous recovery of Eden Carlson back in 2017.

Had she stuck off of a tailpipe and gotten carbon monoxide poisoning, she would have immediately went into a hyperbaric oxygen chamber in any of the major academic medical centers like the University of Iowa.

And we would have saved her brain and her life at that point in time within

days.

But she languished after no oxygen because she sucked on pool water.

She languished for 30 days at Little Rock Children's University of Arkansas Hospital.

Her brain shrunk by 20%.

Parch then had to institute hyperbaric air therapy in part in the family home.

and down at LSU in his clinic, and then he re-grew that child's brain all the way back to its normal volume.

Wow, what a miracle.

I mean, these are miracles happening every

day.

Yes, yes.

Every day that I see in my hyperbaric practice, and then I'm having to read ICU films and ER films across the country, I am the most legitimate person in all of medicine as a radiologist, an academic radiologist, who sees all the practices of all these physicians.

Yep.

I'm the most legitimate person to be communicating the great, incredible, miraculous things that Paul Harts has brought into America for us, and they keep getting shut at the front door of the hospital.

unbelievable.

Well, you're getting the word out.

You want a CARES grant to do it, Doc.

So you are penetrating.

You are the irresistible force moving that erstwhile immovable object.

Joe Casarino, I use the Proimmune Formulation 200.

Talk about that.

Talk about how folks can get that because it certainly has bolstered me.

Well, thank you again, John.

I was just going to say that.

First, I want to say I'm honored to work with Dr. Fogarty and Dr. Hotsuch.

You know, they both work with the H-Bot and the Promune and they understand it.

And it's an honor to work with these doctors because we really are improving lives, saving lives.

Well, they are.

I'm helping them by getting the Promune out to everyone.

I have an announcement to make.

I'd like to announce to you.

Yes.

First of all, a couple of things.

As you said, John, where people could access

and the information about it is my website, www.thebestimmunesupport.com.

And a lot of people don't have the ability to utilize the computer.

So I like to give my private cell numbers.

A lot of times, seniors like to call me up and ask me if I could ship them a jar or a six pack.

My number is 845.

206-8104.

Maybe we could repeat that at the end of the show so they could get a pen.

But I'd like to make a quick announcement, John.

Dr. Ted Fogarty had asked me months ago if there's any way I could do more for the seniors, and it's not easy with corporate, you know, because they have a lot of legal...

issues with the promune company and all that, but I pulled some strings and I was able to arrange it now for the KXEL listeners if they go to the website www.bebestimmunesupport.com and if they want to buy a six pack of promune, which we sold a lot of them on another radio station that Dr. Fogarty was on last week, the seniors really appreciate these discounts.

So what I've arranged is if the seniors want a six pack like many of them do,

They go to the website and they put in the code KXEL with the number 5 and they receive another 5% or if they're already 10% so now they have a 15% discount plus free shipping.

I'm doing everything I can to reduce the cost so the seniors could help optimize their health because many of the seniors

are struggling with obesity, arthritis, asthma, LPD, the chronic illnesses, the COVID, the long COVID, and the promune is helping these seniors, you know, mitigate and reduce a lot of these symptoms, reducing the oxidative stress intra-cellulally.

Yes.

Dr. Fogh speaks about the genius of Dr. Crump.

how he discovered this formula that penetrates the cell wall.

It's the most effective, the most efficient.

Dr. Fogarty will speak about the science.

I'm not qualified to do that, but I'm qualified to tell people that it works.

And Dr. Hartsuch and Fogarty are finding tremendous results.

So I've lowered the price.

I've included the free shipping.

One more bonus we have.

Some people can't buy the six packs, and there's a lot of veterans suffering.

So I was able to also have a code, a veteran, if he wants to buy one jaw, could type in the word VET10, VET10, V-E-T-S-10, and save 10% off a single jaw.

So these are little things that I'm doing to help the public.

And again, that's V E T S and then do they put T E N or the the the number and numeral 10.

So V E T S 1 0.

But for veterans to say 10% on the single jaw is excellent.

But we have a lot of six packs because the seniors are desperate for the prom you Dr. Fogarty has spoken them to them for so long,

sure

about the benefits that they want to discount.

You know, so they buy six packs.

So I've arranged KXEL five now so then they now receive another 5% off the 10% six pack discount.

That's huge.

That's EL five.

Remember that also folks.

And then, Joe, your personal cell phone number again, please.

845-206-8104.

It's on my website.

If they need it, it's www.thebestimmunesupport.com.

And next time we'll talk about all the progress we're having in Florida, many, many seniors, thousands

of people

suffering.

And Ted Fogarty, Dr. Ted Fogarty is helping me bring this to Florida.

We have

already brought it to the Northeast all over Rimebeck and the Hudson Valley, and we're continuing to help.

people all over this great country.

So thank you for your time, gentlemen.

You got it.

David, you joined us in progress.

We're going to give you the last word, Dr. Hartsuch.

Doc, how can they get a hold of you?

Because most of our audience, of course, is within that five-hour drive of your practice.

Sure.

My number is 563-508-9266.

And I might as well do a shout out if I could.

On Saturday, there's going to be a fundraiser dinner.

I'm sponsoring a table for Empower House in Davenport.

So that's

tonight, guys.

That's tonight.

You're listening to us on KXEL here.

It's a little after eight.

It's a little after eight in the morning right now.

It's tonight.

So Doc, where and when?

Yeah,

it's going to be a Sacred Heart Church.

Oh,

I know that beautiful church.

I know that beautiful church.

Yes.

Yeah, they're going to have a spaghetti dinner there and I've sponsored a table and given some HBOT therapy for for their silent auction and Joe Casarino also is also given some

of the pro-immune for the silent auction.

These are people who have had brain injury.

And this is an empowered house is a place where they can go and interact with people instead of sitting at home silent alone.

That interaction is so therapeutic for them.

Sacred Heart Cathedral, that was my wife's and my parish.

The first year we were married when we lived out in the Quad Cities there in Davenport.

What time tonight is that, Doc?

That's gonna be from 4 to 7 o'clock.

And that sounds great.

Come when you can.

All right, guys.

Well, hey, what a wonderful segment studio audience on their feet.

Mike Shane's going to take us out with his inimitable ringtone.

Guys, we thank Dr. Edward F. Fogarty, Honorable Dr. David Hartsuch and Joseph Casarino for joining us again today.

We'll have them on again next week.

Wow, a magnificent discussion with the doctors in the house and of course our cavalcade of sports at the front end.

Back here with my favorite entrepreneur, Curtis Haymes, part of the Homes People at Haymes Homes.

Beautiful, affordable, safe,

homes at Haymes homes guys and these are manufactured homes that really if you drive through the two communities the summit view community and the grand view community you see how lovely these are now that the lawns aren't green today Curtis because some of that surprise snow in late March after the

vernal equinox after the first day of spring but my goodness Curtis your grandparents if they were still here would remember we've had some Easter Resurrection Sunday blizzards in the past in the 70s and we had Palm Sunday tornadoes that ripped through our area in 1965 that I can remember

as a young boy, but Curtis, those homes of yours survived the Durecho Unblemished.

Good morning and thank you for all the kind words.

We are definitely capable of batting down the hatches for adverse conditions here in our community.

We handled the Durecho about as well as anyone in eastern Iowa did a real scary time, but as, you know, community management

and neighbors and friends, we really bandied together here.

We think we hung in there with that, with that big storm as well as anybody.

And here, you know, on a surprise spring snow this week, first day of spring, and then you get four inches

of snow.

Exactly, exactly.

Our team, we're in-house.

We plow the communities with

our

community management.

We're not done by the city.

So we think we keep the, our community at least as clean

as the city and maybe even a little bit better.

Oh, it is better because it's private.

It's not a government monopoly and you folks are always incentivized because you pride yourself on all the amenities there and that would be nice street lighting, beautiful roads without any bumps or ruts, lawns that are impeccable.

Edward Scissor's hand would be jealous of the nice

landscaping there, the shrubbery, the flags, the pride, the walking parks, the frisbee golf, the dog parks, the pantries.

The amenities are really fantastic there in essentially two beautiful little cities in a rural setting with access not 10 minutes away from everything from the airport to hospitals to all retail, Curtis.

We're very excited to have everyone spend all four seasons here with us and we may even experience all four of them here in the next month.

So we're very excited to have everybody here, whether it's snow, whether it's spring, enjoying all of our amenities that you mentioned, setting up your home site with a garden, enjoying our community garden.

We're excited to have everybody out here.

Curtis, there's something for everybody.

You've got 900 square feet homes running at about 35,000.

You've got 1800 square feet homes running at about 165,000.

You've got some nice 1200 square feet homes running at about 60,000.

Beautiful space, beautiful parking, driveways, rooms for sheds.

People really need to get out and see

How lovely these areas are.

We're very excited.

As you mentioned, we do have price points for any budget.

A pre-owned home is not going to be a situation where someone's going to get a lemon.

We pride ourselves.

We have a full-time staff that refurbishes homes, deep cleans, our 96-point inspection.

We sell our homes with warranties.

You're not going to be getting something as is.

You're going to have the hams guaranteed behind all your homes.

Your HVAC is going to work.

Your roof's not going to leak.

Your windows are going to be tight.

We're going to make sure that every homeowner that buys from us is going to be in really good shape and all of our homes are going to be turnkey.

These guys are absolutely an accredited business from Better Business Bureau and I just want to tell people the location is so spectacular.

It feels like you're living in the country on the edge of the city there in Southwest Sea Rapids, Curtis, but you're so close to everything.

Everything is nearby from retail to health to transportation.

We couldn't be more excited about our location.

Grandma and Grandpa had some really, really great foresight.

Yes, they did.

30

plus years ago when they acquired this land.

Yes.

This out of town has really grown.

We have a lot of opportunities here.

If you need to get out of town, we're not that far from the highway.

It's a three to five minute drive to get on highway 30 to 380.

You get to the airport in 12, 15 minutes.

You get to downtown Cedar Rapids in 12 minutes.

We have a great, great location, lots of amenities, not deep into town.

but not so far away that anything's not accessible.

And for Iowa City, Carleville, Tiff and North Liberty, it's a pretty short commute and very affordable, Curtis.

We agree.

We couldn't be prouder of what we're doing over here.

Love our location.

We're very proud of our homes, maintaining them, and the neighborhood that we've created over here.

You know, the kudos from your residents.

There's always new things that I find on that great website.

Here's from Jack and Lois Livingston.

Hames' friendliness is always welcomed and appreciated.

And they are truly the most courteous people we've ever done business with from Jim Blad.

The staff was always there to answer questions or find answers for us.

From Michelle Olson, I'm still here enjoying my remodeled home.

Once again, thank you for all your help.

And these go on and on and on.

You know, it's just, here's Michelle, Tim.

Animals don't run at large and are always our current management is on top of everything.

From Marnie Glug,

Glubka.

This is a community with strict rules that aren't forced.

It's a lovely, clean and safe community to live in.

You're getting kudos right and left, Curtis.
