In the latest episode of The Steam Room podcast, Chuck was extremely excited as he would soon be off for March Madness. Hence, he gave a show to remember for the audience before his short hiatus from the podcast.

While showing off his great sense of humor, Barkley revisited an old joke to have a fun time with the guest of the show, former college coach Jay Wright. When co-host Ernie Johnson informed Barkley about Jay Wright?s job in television, the 11-time All-Star blurted out what he really thought of the former Villanova coach.?

?He[Jay Wright] is no Tom Brady, but he?s a pretty man,” joked Barkley. To which, Johnson mentioned how he would ensure the conversation passed into Wright?s ears. A while later, Johnson fulfilled his promise as he let Wright know about how Barkley thinks that the Villanova coach pales in comparison to the NFL icon.

?After a good round of laughter, Barkley chimed in on the conversation while Wright was still hysterically laughing in the background. “He’s not quite Tom Brady, but he’s a good-looking man,” reiterated Barkley. To which Johnson replied, ” Would you look Jay directly in the eyes, which is something you won’t do with Tom Brady?” Following that, Barkley delivered a hilarious statement that left everyone in splits.

?Hey listen I can look Jay in the eyes, when I look Tom Brady in the eyes, it’s just everything after ?Hey Tom? is just gibberish,? said Barkley before the three of them burst into laughter along with the viewers at home. However, it isn?t the first time that Chuck has professed his ?love? for the seven-time Super Bowl champion. Just a few years ago, Barkley acknowledged how “pretty? Tom Brady was live on air in NBA on TNT.?
