Speaker 6: like April Fool's Day, and it is upon us right now.

33
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:33,040
Speaker 2: I love April Fool's Day, one of the greatest days

34
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:33,440
Speaker 2: of the year.

35
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 5: Of course you do. I could see that. Why do

36
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 5: you like it so much?

37
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:40,479
Speaker 2: I just like pulling little, little, sneaky little pranks on people.

38
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:42,800
Speaker 2: I've had some classic ones over the years.

39
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 6: What do you mean you had some classic ones? Like

40
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 6: and first of all, you can't call them classic. What

41
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 6: is that them so classic?

42
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 2: You know, at the TV station, you work till midnight.

43
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 2: So I snuck into the sales department and stole all

44
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 2: the wheels off the bottom of their shoes, so when

45
00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:00,080
Speaker 2: they came in on the bottom of their chairs, so

46
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 2: when they came in the next morning, they didn't have

47
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 2: any wheels on their chairs.

48
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 5: That's not an April Fool's joke.

49
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's a great April Fools joke.

50
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 6: That's not an April Do you not understand what an

51
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:12,560
Speaker 6: April fool's joke is. April fool's joke is not just

52
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 6: doing things diabolical to people. It's making them believe one

53
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 6: thing and then the other is true. How was what

54
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:21,119
Speaker 6: you did in April Fool's joke?

55
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:23,920
Speaker 2: I think it falls under the April fool's umbrella, you know.

56
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 2: I think it's a prank stree.

57
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 5: I don't think that's it. That's just a jerk thing

58
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:28,240
Speaker 5: to do.

59
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:31,960
Speaker 6: Is it's like deflating people's tires and then saying April fools.

60
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 2: Haha.

61
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 7: I'm glad you didn't ask me before, Ryan, Ryan, don't

62
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:38,400
Speaker 7: take offense to this, but I was gonna say, April

63
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 7: Fool's Day is when people who aren't funny think they're funny.

64
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 5: That's exactly right. You are one hundred percent correct, Drew.

65
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 5: I hate April fools, Shanon, what about you?

66
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:51,400
Speaker 3: I don't believe what anybody says any other day of

67
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:53,320
Speaker 3: the year, so why would I believe them on April Fools?

68
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 4: So I never fall for these. It's hard to get

69
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:55,520
Speaker 4: me on these.

70
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:58,799
Speaker 6: Yeah, well, Tiger the one I saw this morning, Drew

71
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 6: is Tiger Woods say, I've had like four weeks of

72
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,440
Speaker 6: treatment and now my achilles is good. I'm playing in

73
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:10,240
Speaker 6: the Masters. And then it's just like April fools. Well,

74
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 6: why was that April fools? Like I felt sorry for

75
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:14,919
Speaker 6: you that you hurt your I actually think that was

76
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 6: a terrible job, Drew, April fools, isn't it?

77
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 8: Now?

78
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 7: Did anyone laugh? I didn't laugh, or like, there's not

79
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,920
Speaker 7: even a joke. And in the sports world it's like,

80
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,360
Speaker 7: you know, so and so signs with the school for

81
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,400
Speaker 7: fifty million dollars. Okay, that's not funny, and no one

82
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 7: believes that. Like it's gotten so predictable.

83
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 5: I could get over yours ride. That's not a joke.

84
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:37,120
Speaker 6: That's just like hurting people just taking the wheels off

85
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 6: their chairs, like did they fall.

86
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 2: And they sit in their chair and they try to

87
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 2: scoot up and it doesn't move. It's just there's nothing

88
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 2: but hysterical laugh.

89
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 7: And you did this to people that are working on

90
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 7: all the newsroom.

91
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 2: Hey, I here's another one. I did One time I

92
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 2: called one of the local radio stations here when I

93
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 2: was a channel eighteen, called one of the local radio

94
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 2: stations here in Lexington and told them that Luke wukosh

95
00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 2: orb Zoo was going back to Poland, leaving the team

96
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:01,960
Speaker 2: going back to Poland after the season. They fell for it,

97
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 2: completely fell for it.

98
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 5: So you gave basically fake news to people I did.

99
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, well, I think that's at least what April News

100
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 6: is or April Fools is supposed to be.

101
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 5: But Drew, I.

102
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 6: Don't think news. Do you think news people like Ryan

103
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 6: should participate in it?

104
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:18,159
Speaker 5: You had him back in Poland?

105
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, look to leave the t go back on. Matter of fact,

106
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:22,920
Speaker 2: it was the lap that it was this station that

107
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 2: I called in.

108
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 7: Love Simon and his voice for April Fool's Day.

109
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,920
Speaker 6: Were they mad that you had given them essentially false

110
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 6: news to put on the air.

111
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 2: Well, by the end of the conversation, I said, wait

112
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:34,920
Speaker 2: a minute, what is today? And then they hung up

113
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,159
Speaker 2: on me. So, you know, I let it go on

114
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:39,719
Speaker 2: for about fifteen twenty thirty seconds.

115
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:43,040
Speaker 6: You are, I'm just gonna let it go if I'm

116
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 6: nine two eight oh twenty two eighty seven, Drew. I

117
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 6: told Shannon this during the break, I had one of

118
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 6: the more uncomfortable Uh, things that I've ever done, and

119
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,360
Speaker 6: I think this could happen to you. Okay, So I'm

120
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 6: staying in a part of town that I look across

121
00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 6: the street, Drew, and there's a comedy club across the street,

122
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 6: all right, And so I thought, well, there's a comedy

123
00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:08,600
Speaker 6: club across the street. I why don't I just go tonight?

124
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 5: Right? Like they have a show.

125
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,919
Speaker 6: Let me just walk over there. And do you know

126
00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 6: who the comedian Mark Normand is?

127
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 5: Yeah? You know who he is? Right?

128
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:23,520
Speaker 6: So he has a thing on he has like something

129
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,599
Speaker 6: he does once a week called the Good Eggs Show,

130
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:30,200
Speaker 6: which I guess is Shannon. It's just people that he likes.

131
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:33,039
Speaker 6: He puts them all on a show together, all right.

132
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:38,159
Speaker 6: So you know they said sometimes he's there, sometimes he's not.

133
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:40,720
Speaker 5: So I thought, well, I'll just walk over there.

134
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 6: And the first hint should have been when I got

135
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 6: online Drew and the tickets were twelve dollars.

136
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 5: Okay, because that's a pretty.

137
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 6: Cheap amount of money, but I thought, you know they

138
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 6: do this to drink minimum.

139
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 5: Whatever.

140
00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 6: I walk over there, I get my ticket, I walk in, Shannon,

141
00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:57,599
Speaker 6: there are.

142
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:04,600
Speaker 5: Nine people there n nine people, and.

143
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 6: The first dude speaking is Drew we've talked about every

144
00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 6: time we go to New York, who do we always see.

145
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:12,599
Speaker 5: On stage at the at the comedy places.

146
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 7: Uh, I see David Shall at Judah Friedlander.

147
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:18,920
Speaker 4: Of course.

148
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:25,040
Speaker 6: He's there, But Shennon, there's only nine people, like there's

149
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 6: there's that.

150
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:27,680
Speaker 5: We've never had a KSR remote with.

151
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 6: Only nine people, Like, there's nine people, And let me

152
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:34,240
Speaker 6: tell you the epitome of awkward. Sitting in a room

153
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 6: with nine people when a comedian's trying to do a show,

154
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 6: like it.

155
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:39,920
Speaker 5: Couldn't be more awkward.

156
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,760
Speaker 6: You feel like he's just talking to you, like he's

157
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,479
Speaker 6: not doing a show, he's just talking to you. And

158
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:48,560
Speaker 6: because there's only nine people, I think he feels awkward, Drew,

159
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 6: and so he feels like he has to like talk

160
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:52,760
Speaker 6: to you each individually. And I didn't want to talk

161
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 6: to him. I was in a hoodie, i'd been outside,

162
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 6: I was raining. After four minutes, I just got up

163
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:01,920
Speaker 6: and left. I couldn't stay there. It was so awkward. No,

164
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 6: I'm serious. I waited until he was done, Like he

165
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:05,680
Speaker 6: was the guy, I don't know what you call it,

166
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 6: that will like come on and then you'll introduce everybody else,

167
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:09,120
Speaker 6: you know what?

168
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,080
Speaker 5: I mean. So I waited till he.

169
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:14,240
Speaker 6: Had gone, and he introduced the first person and I

170
00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 6: just walked out Drew and I decided it was too

171
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 6: awkward for me.

172
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 5: There were too few people. It was.

173
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:22,120
Speaker 6: It was an event where I thought, you need more

174
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 6: than nine people to tell jokes or I can't stay

175
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 6: in here any longer.

176
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 7: I've been in a small setting for comedy show and

177
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,239
Speaker 7: you feel an obligation to laugh. You have to force

178
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:34,720
Speaker 7: it because there's uncomfortable eye contact. You know, you kind

179
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:36,240
Speaker 7: of got to carry the crowd for him, and if

180
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 7: it's just not working, well, it's terribly uncomfortable.

181
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:39,720
Speaker 5: Just think how much.

182
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 3: Power, how much power you had in that moment when

183
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:45,320
Speaker 3: you left, ten percent of the crowd left was gone.

184
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:45,920
Speaker 4: Exactly.

185
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 9: Yeah, I couldn't stay for exactly Like Drew said, I

186
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 9: felt like I had to laugh at all the chokes

187
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:53,880
Speaker 9: because he was looking me right in the eye, and

188
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 9: there were two women that They also put me in

189
00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:59,120
Speaker 9: a table with two strangers this whole huge room.

190
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 6: They made me sit right next to two strangers, and

191
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 6: I didn't. I felt like I had an obligation to

192
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 6: laugh and I couldn't do it.

193
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:09,680
Speaker 5: I could not sit there and fake laugh. I've seen

194
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,400
Speaker 5: you to Friedlander five times at these comedy clubs.

195
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:14,360
Speaker 6: And then they brought out they were about to bring

196
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 6: on another person, and Shannon I was like.

197
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:18,040
Speaker 5: I can't do this. This is too much work.

198
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:19,920
Speaker 6: This was supposed to be fun, and now I feel

199
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:21,360
Speaker 6: like I'm performing for him.

200
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 3: I know I'm in the minority when I say this,

201
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:26,200
Speaker 3: but I love awkward situations.

202
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 4: So I I want to just.

203
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 3: Deadpans stared him, stared into his soul and not laugh

204
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:32,200
Speaker 3: one time, just to make it even more.

205
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 5: I know I could totally see you doing that. I

206
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 5: could totally you would like you would take pride.

207
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, laughing exactly. Yeah.

208
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:40,199
Speaker 5: I couldn't do it.

209
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 6: So I just came home and I and he got

210
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:44,680
Speaker 6: my Mark Norman got my fifteen bucks.

211
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 5: But I saw Ryan.

212
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,600
Speaker 6: There were six comedians on the bill and there was

213
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:54,480
Speaker 6: fifteen bucks and there were only nine people. So I

214
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 6: mean that means what did they do?

215
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 5: The math?

216
00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:00,760
Speaker 6: Fifteen pup bucks, nine people, it's one hundred thirty five

217
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 6: dollars they took in split six ways. I mean, those

218
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 6: people were making twenty bucks to be there.

219
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,200
Speaker 2: It's made me awkward and uncomfortable hearing you talk about it.

220
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 6: I'll I can't ever go back. No, I mean, I

221
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,199
Speaker 6: guess it's Monday at seven o'clock, Drew. I shouldn't have

222
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:17,200
Speaker 6: thought it was gonna be packed, but I certainly thought

223
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,079
Speaker 6: there'd be more people than nine.

224
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 5: At the thing.

225
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,319
Speaker 7: Yeah, and you know, I'm not someone that even when

226
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 7: I think something's funny, I'm not really expressing I do.

227
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,320
Speaker 7: I'm not a big, laugh out loud guy. I like

228
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,600
Speaker 7: to blend in the back of a quiet crowd. I

229
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:31,960
Speaker 7: would have been so uncomfortable in a tiny grow knowing

230
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,200
Speaker 7: they're looking at me for a reaction. I probably would

231
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:34,800
Speaker 7: have left with you.

232
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:37,720
Speaker 6: Well, I was out and that was that, and I

233
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 6: came home to uh, you know, lots of lots of

234
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:43,839
Speaker 6: portal chatter which I want to get to. But we

235
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 6: did this conversation yesterday. Ryan of a guy called in

236
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,760
Speaker 6: and said, what's your your final grade on the season?

237
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 5: And are you pleased or are you not?

238
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,319
Speaker 6: And and you know, I've said a couple of times

239
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 6: that I thought for me the grade was an A.

240
00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:02,320
Speaker 6: This guy said a bea, which led to all day

241
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 6: kind of me getting messages on the text machine about

242
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 6: grades on the year.

243
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:12,480
Speaker 5: And it seems like to me most of our fans

244
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 5: are happy about how the year went.

245
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:19,440
Speaker 6: But I have no there has been a little group

246
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:23,840
Speaker 6: of people going, Matt, aren't we lowering our standards in

247
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 6: saying that a team that I think in the end

248
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:31,079
Speaker 6: had what twelve losses and a sweet sixteen, that that's

249
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,480
Speaker 6: an a Now, I think you have to look at

250
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:36,600
Speaker 6: the circumstances of all that's happened to come to that.

251
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 6: But do you give any credibility to the argument that

252
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,960
Speaker 6: the caller had and then people had after that, You know,

253
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 6: you can't get to the point. I mean Tubby basically

254
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 6: was called ten loss Tubby and kind of run off

255
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:51,200
Speaker 6: for losing double digit games. You agree or disagree with

256
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:51,720
Speaker 6: that point.

257
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:54,240
Speaker 2: I disagree really, I think you have to consider all

258
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:57,320
Speaker 2: the factors and the factors about the no staff and

259
00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:59,360
Speaker 2: no roster when he first got here. In the fact

260
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:01,520
Speaker 2: he took this tag bunch of guys and still were

261
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 2: able to have these huge wins throughout the season. I

262
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:08,840
Speaker 2: think the wins far exceed the couple of bad losses

263
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:10,920
Speaker 2: they had. You know, losing a Arkansas home was bad.

264
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:13,439
Speaker 2: They finished the season with a thud lose to Tennessee

265
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:15,360
Speaker 2: and the NCA Tournament was kind of bad, but I

266
00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:17,720
Speaker 2: think the big wins far overshadow that.

267
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 6: And you know, we also have to think have to

268
00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 6: consider Drew how hard the conference was, right, I mean,

269
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 6: if we were in the ACC, let's just say we

270
00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:30,680
Speaker 6: played Louisville schedule, what's our record in conference? We were

271
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:33,079
Speaker 6: ten and eight in conference? What are we if we're

272
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 6: in the ACC this year? Are we fifteen and three,

273
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:38,200
Speaker 6: fourteen and four, sixteen and two?

274
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:40,200
Speaker 5: Like, I mean, some of it has to be.

275
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:44,599
Speaker 6: We played in arguably the hardest conference ever in college basketball.

276
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,640
Speaker 7: Yeah, there's a big part of the fan base that

277
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 7: just says, this is Kentucky. We're supposed to be the

278
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:52,720
Speaker 7: goal standard. We're supposed to win every year. But you

279
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,439
Speaker 7: have to look at the circumstances. Even like the twenty

280
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:57,800
Speaker 7: fifteen team that ran the table. If you go back

281
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 7: and look at Ken Palm and the SEC teams year,

282
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 7: the league was terrible. Now, that team was awesome in itself,

283
00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 7: but the competition has just changed so much from year

284
00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:09,280
Speaker 7: to year to where now the SEC was, as we know,

285
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 7: fourteen teams in the tournament. Then you throw in the

286
00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 7: injuries that you've had to go through. At some point,

287
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:16,720
Speaker 7: you can't just keep saying this is Kentucky. You have

288
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 7: to look at what's happened in front of you. And

289
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 7: if you have a depleted roster and you're in the

290
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,960
Speaker 7: best conference of all time, there's gonna be a little

291
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:24,560
Speaker 7: bit of a dip. Now, you can be upset about

292
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 7: losing to Georgia and losing to Texas. I'm completely with

293
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:28,480
Speaker 7: you on that, but you can't just keep saying this

294
00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:31,320
Speaker 7: is Kentucky, we're number one every year. Because things change.

295
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:32,520
Speaker 7: You got to look at the big picture.

296
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,600
Speaker 6: Do you, Shannon, you're the most cynical of the group,

297
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,920
Speaker 6: Do you have any sympathy to the argument of, well,

298
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,480
Speaker 6: it's a be just because we can't say the Sweet

299
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:42,560
Speaker 6: sixteen is enough.

300
00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:43,680
Speaker 4: No, it's a dumb argument.

301
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:45,440
Speaker 3: First of all, if Kentucky were in the ACC, they

302
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:47,280
Speaker 3: would have had one loss they went to and one

303
00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:50,160
Speaker 3: against the top three teams in the ACC this season.

304
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 3: So I mean, I look at Okay, let's just compare

305
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:54,800
Speaker 3: to John Calli Perry's first year.

306
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,160
Speaker 4: His first year here, he went to the Elite eight.

307
00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 3: Mark Pope was one went away from doing that with

308
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,640
Speaker 3: a team full of far less talented guys than what

309
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 3: CALIBERI had in his first year.

310
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:07,360
Speaker 6: If Mark Pope had what, did we have five first

311
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:09,800
Speaker 6: round draft picks on that team? I think yeah, his

312
00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:12,559
Speaker 6: first year, Yeah he had five first round draft picks.

313
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:14,320
Speaker 5: This team will have no first.

314
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:17,440
Speaker 3: So considering what Pope did with what he had, giving

315
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:19,559
Speaker 3: him a bee is just it's not even an argument.

316
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:19,760
Speaker 5: To me.

317
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:21,880
Speaker 4: It's a soliday. I don't think there's any argument for that.

318
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,560
Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't really either, but I do think there

319
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 6: is a and some of this is just the modern

320
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:32,280
Speaker 6: like whatever position somebody has, there are people who want

321
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:37,200
Speaker 6: to take the opposite just to argue. But you know,

322
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 6: I guess he could have won a couple more games.

323
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:42,840
Speaker 6: But I mean, you look at that roster, especially after

324
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:47,560
Speaker 6: Jackson Robinson goes out a Sweet sixteen with that roster,

325
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 6: to me, is not only performing to your seed. It

326
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:53,720
Speaker 6: might be overperforming because I'm not sure we're a three

327
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 6: seed if Jackson Robinson's out.

328
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:56,440
Speaker 5: The whole year.

329
00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:59,839
Speaker 6: So to be able to do that, I think he

330
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:03,319
Speaker 6: deserves a lot of credit, and I think most fans

331
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 6: give it to him. But it is interesting to me

332
00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 6: that there's this little sort of and and and part

333
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:10,200
Speaker 6: of it's the anxiety about the portal, which we'll talk

334
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:12,440
Speaker 6: about uh, in a minute. If I'm nine two eight

335
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,360
Speaker 6: oh twenty two eighty seven, You're not gonna pull an

336
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:15,559
Speaker 6: April Fool's joke, are you.

337
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 5: Ryan? At some point during the show.

338
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 2: I'm contemplating I'm going one with him, So I'm worried.

339
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:22,520
Speaker 7: I'm looking at my chair seeing what's going on.

340
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:24,880
Speaker 6: I believe you literally thought that was a joke, just

341
00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:26,760
Speaker 6: taking the wheels off people's chair.

342
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:29,920
Speaker 5: Did you say, April fools? When they fell to the ground.

343
00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:31,840
Speaker 2: They didn't follow the ground, They just couldn't scoot their

344
00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:32,920
Speaker 2: chair over the carpet.

345
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:35,120
Speaker 5: And so when they said what happened, what did did

346
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 5: you just go, April fools?

347
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:38,000
Speaker 2: April fools? Funny?

348
00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 5: Funny?

349
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 4: Did you walk out a bucket of wheels.

350
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:41,320
Speaker 5: On the chair?

351
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:43,080
Speaker 2: Next year, I took a roll of tape and taped

352
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:44,880
Speaker 2: up their doorknobs. They couldn't open the door to get

353
00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:45,440
Speaker 2: in their office.

354
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:46,800
Speaker 7: A lot of people laugh at that.

355
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 5: None of this, none of this is in April.

356
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 4: Fools, just torturing people.

357
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:55,200
Speaker 6: Just those are not April Fool's jokes in any sense

358
00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:55,840
Speaker 6: of the word.

359
00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 7: And this is third shift in a newsroom, doesn't Maybe

360
00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:01,400
Speaker 7: they needed the wheels their chairs and to get into their.

361
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:03,800
Speaker 2: You know, haha, funny funny they got them back.

362
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:05,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, it seems hilarious.

363
00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:07,200
Speaker 6: If I'm nine two eight oh twenty two eighty seven,

364
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:08,360
Speaker 6: we will take a break.

365
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 5: Be right back to Kazark. Welcome back into is Kentucky

366
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:14,720
Speaker 5: sports radio.

367
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:19,120
Speaker 6: People are she talking about pranks they've pulled and asking

368
00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 6: whether or not it's April Fools. This woman says she

369
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:24,520
Speaker 6: went on Facebook and she told everyone to text her

370
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:29,360
Speaker 6: husband and tell them they wanted to buy Lamas from him,

371
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:32,200
Speaker 6: even though he doesn't own Lamas, and he got five

372
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 6: hundred text messages from people about Lamas.

373
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 5: Now, does that sound like an April Fool's joke?

374
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,560
Speaker 4: It's a prank. I don't know that it's a joke, though, Yeah.

375
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 6: It is a prank. I kind of agree. I don't

376
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:45,280
Speaker 6: know if it's an April Fool's joke. I feel like

377
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 6: April Fools is I tell you something drew that an

378
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 6: act like it's true, but it's not.

379
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 5: That's April Fools.

380
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,480
Speaker 6: I think just pulling a prank is not, in and

381
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:57,000
Speaker 6: of itself April Fools.

382
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 7: Yeah, I guess, yeah, you're not. Really, you're fooling all

383
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:02,480
Speaker 7: the people that emailed the husband.

384
00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:04,800
Speaker 6: But no, they were in on it. They were just

385
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 6: they were part like they were doing it as part

386
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:10,040
Speaker 6: of the Yeah. The uh he the victim there. It's

387
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:12,080
Speaker 6: more of just pranking him than April fooling him as

388
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:15,280
Speaker 6: I interpret the holiday. Yes, one person writes it sounds

389
00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:18,000
Speaker 6: like to me Ryan uses April Fools as a chance

390
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 6: to just be a jerk.

391
00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 2: I think it's a free pass today to break.

392
00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:26,360
Speaker 7: Your your your April Fools prank didn't go very well.

393
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:29,680
Speaker 2: All the the wheels off the chairs. I got a

394
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:31,800
Speaker 2: call from the chief engineer at my house and like

395
00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 2: he said, look, you got like five seconds to fix

396
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:36,680
Speaker 2: this right now. So I got I got into a

397
00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:37,200
Speaker 2: little trouble.

398
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:41,880
Speaker 6: I can understand why like that. It's not you can't

399
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:44,040
Speaker 6: do like someone could have gotten hurt.

400
00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:48,520
Speaker 2: Uh No, they just couldn't scoot him as long as

401
00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 2: he got to laugh at it.

402
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:53,600
Speaker 6: He's just Ryan thinks he could just walk behind somebody,

403
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,080
Speaker 6: smack him in the face and go April Fools.

404
00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 7: Dennis the Menace over here.

405
00:16:58,320 --> 00:16:59,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, no kidding.

406
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:04,200
Speaker 6: Also, by the way, Drew six years ago today, John

407
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:08,520
Speaker 6: Caliperi announced he would stay at Kentucky with a lifetime

408
00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:11,920
Speaker 6: contract and that he quote didn't want to coach any

409
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:12,720
Speaker 6: other school.

410
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:15,480
Speaker 5: Ever, What do you think about that?

411
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:18,119
Speaker 4: That's an April fol joke, got us.

412
00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 7: That's how you do it, Ryan, That's exactly right.

413
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:26,400
Speaker 5: That was the John Calipery long play. That's exactly right.

414
00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:29,440
Speaker 6: He's like, you know what, in five years this will

415
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:30,840
Speaker 6: all payoff trail.

416
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:34,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, but there was April first, twenty nineteen when he

417
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:37,240
Speaker 5: announced I will be going nowhere else and I will

418
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:38,440
Speaker 5: finish my career at.

419
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:41,239
Speaker 2: Kentucky's which goes to got Bede by Kansas State, and

420
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:44,119
Speaker 2: UCLA was flirting with him. Is that when all that happened?

421
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:46,560
Speaker 6: I think that's when that happened. And in hindsight, we've

422
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 6: talked about this honestly, Ryan, that's.

423
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:49,560
Speaker 5: When he should have left.

424
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:54,200
Speaker 6: Yes, I think if he left then, but I mean,

425
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:56,120
Speaker 6: Mitch could not have let him go.

426
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 5: Mitch would have taken a lot of heat.

427
00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:02,080
Speaker 6: So I understand why they did that lifetime, but it

428
00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:04,880
Speaker 6: would have been best for all parties if he.

429
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:06,919
Speaker 5: Left them, don't you think like I?

430
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,879
Speaker 6: In hindsight, that was the moment that would have been

431
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:11,760
Speaker 6: the perfect time for him to exit.

432
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 2: Mitch Barnhardt had to keep him here. You couldn't let

433
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,400
Speaker 2: he had to for UCLA, you.

434
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:19,440
Speaker 6: Could, but if your Cow wouldn't that have been the

435
00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 6: right time for cal to go like it would have

436
00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:25,439
Speaker 6: I think people would have. You know, It's like George

437
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:28,240
Speaker 6: Costanza says, you want to leave him, want more Drew,

438
00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 6: And that was the moment that I think he could

439
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:30,920
Speaker 6: have done that.

440
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,119
Speaker 7: Yeah, looking back, I'm I think I was even for

441
00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:36,480
Speaker 7: the lifetime contract in the moment because at that time

442
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:39,040
Speaker 7: Cow was still Cal here and winning a bunch of games.

443
00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:40,760
Speaker 7: I don't think anyone saw the way it would tank.

444
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:43,720
Speaker 7: But now that we know what we know, horrible, horrible decision.

445
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:45,600
Speaker 7: It's just a great April Fool's Day, prink.

446
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,680
Speaker 3: He should have definitely if he left. Saint Peter's doesn't happen,

447
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:50,159
Speaker 3: Oakland doesn't happen.

448
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:51,000
Speaker 4: Not in six.

449
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:53,920
Speaker 5: Covides, COVID doesn't happen. We don't even have COVID.

450
00:18:53,720 --> 00:19:00,240
Speaker 7: Exactly exactly the tournament families, it's exactly right, COVID goes away.

451
00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:03,199
Speaker 6: Everyone wrote me after the show yesterday and said, the

452
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:07,000
Speaker 6: last five minutes of the show became the price is right? Yeah,

453
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:09,880
Speaker 6: what happened there? Because I don't know what they're talking.

454
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:12,560
Speaker 3: Look, I understand that everybody looked at me as suspect

455
00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,840
Speaker 3: number one, but I wasn't even watching the Prices right.

456
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:20,119
Speaker 3: Somehow happened in the Lexington studio where they had I

457
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:23,280
Speaker 3: guess the board on the TV because there was severe

458
00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:26,080
Speaker 3: weather the night before. They were testing something and somebody

459
00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:28,359
Speaker 3: forgot to turn that off during the break and instead

460
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:30,200
Speaker 3: of hearing us, you heard the last you heard the

461
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:32,359
Speaker 3: showcase showdown and the Price is Right? I see they

462
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:34,560
Speaker 3: were giving away a really good vacation package too.

463
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:37,399
Speaker 6: So they they skipped the last segment and it just

464
00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:39,800
Speaker 6: played the Price is Right over the radio.

465
00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:42,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, yep, we had a good segment too.

466
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:46,000
Speaker 5: And so what about the podcast? Is it the Price

467
00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:46,400
Speaker 5: is Right?

468
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:48,000
Speaker 4: No, no, it's it's what we.

469
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:51,320
Speaker 5: Only in Lexington, only in Lexington.

470
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,760
Speaker 6: So people listening to our show in the last ten

471
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:56,360
Speaker 6: minutes just heard the Price is Right.

472
00:19:56,600 --> 00:20:01,720
Speaker 2: Yep, yep. Wow, there's some kind of funny about it.

473
00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:02,439
Speaker 5: Yeah.

474
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:04,560
Speaker 6: So so they had just left it on the TV

475
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:07,200
Speaker 6: from the night before the emergency.

476
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:08,480
Speaker 3: Way right, Yeah, they were testing it during the break

477
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 3: and I, you know, I asked you figure out.

478
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:12,480
Speaker 6: I couldn't figure out how in the world would the

479
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:15,320
Speaker 6: Price is Right beyond the rail radio is it.

480
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:18,120
Speaker 2: Still try When you heard it, didn't you immediately think

481
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:20,399
Speaker 2: Shannon was watching prices right in the studio and somehow

482
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:22,200
Speaker 2: mixed a button up and came out.

483
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:23,240
Speaker 5: I mean I didn't know about it.

484
00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:25,679
Speaker 6: I just I was sitting at the airport and just

485
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:28,119
Speaker 6: take got message after message of why is the price

486
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:30,879
Speaker 6: is right on? And I thought I did assume it

487
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:34,359
Speaker 6: was Shannon that didn't but uh, but I didn't know.

488
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 6: Maybe I thought it was April fools. Who's who's up first?

489
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:37,640
Speaker 4: Let's go to Sean.

490
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:39,560
Speaker 5: Sean, go ahead, Sean.

491
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:45,520
Speaker 10: Hey, guys doing I'm doing good the first time long

492
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:52,000
Speaker 10: time Kentucky as because the first thing at worked this morning,

493
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:55,320
Speaker 10: slipping through you know Twitter, uh say not take our

494
00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:57,720
Speaker 10: way was in the portal and I was like, I

495
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:00,760
Speaker 10: know it's say for fools Day, Yeah that you believe?

496
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:05,280
Speaker 6: Yeah, I would have been suspect. Let me say this

497
00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:08,320
Speaker 6: about Otega away when it comes to portal. There are

498
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:13,840
Speaker 6: schools that have like had their people talk to his people.

499
00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:18,560
Speaker 6: There are schools that are offering him insane amounts of money,

500
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:22,879
Speaker 6: like in school at least one school in conference trying

501
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:26,199
Speaker 6: to get him to come. I do not think he

502
00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:29,560
Speaker 6: will leave. I think I think part of what so

503
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:31,480
Speaker 6: when we look at the portal part, one of the

504
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:34,320
Speaker 6: things we have to recognize is when you're looking at

505
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:37,719
Speaker 6: the money Kentucky spends, they're gonna have to spend money

506
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:41,199
Speaker 6: to keep otaga Oway here. So when you see like

507
00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:44,840
Speaker 6: a school sign a random person and you see again,

508
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 6: I don't believe any of these numbers, but let's say

509
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:48,600
Speaker 6: that it says they signed a guy and gave him

510
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:49,520
Speaker 6: three million dollars.

511
00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:51,880
Speaker 5: A lot of those schools.

512
00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:53,760
Speaker 6: Don't have to do what Kentucky does, which is they're

513
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:55,439
Speaker 6: gonna have to pay a big chunk of money to

514
00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:58,840
Speaker 6: keep one of their own guys. You know, Louisville for instance.

515
00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:00,960
Speaker 6: I don't think they have to do that, but we do,

516
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:03,800
Speaker 6: so I do. I don't expect the take away to

517
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:06,639
Speaker 6: go anywhere, but I do think it's important for people

518
00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:10,119
Speaker 6: to recognize that some of our in Aisle budget is

519
00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,240
Speaker 6: going to be used to just keep these guys here

520
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:13,199
Speaker 6: that we already have.

521
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 10: Right, and I have a aprilfol so I'm pretty sure

522
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:22,880
Speaker 10: it was on aprilfuls me and my wife was expect

523
00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:26,639
Speaker 10: and baby. Well, the nurse that brought us back didn't

524
00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:30,200
Speaker 10: ask anything at all about me. She just themed I

525
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:34,160
Speaker 10: was bad. So she does all this stuff wow the opening,

526
00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:36,960
Speaker 10: and then she looks at me and she's like, congratulations

527
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:39,600
Speaker 10: bad and I thought that. I was like, ma'am, I'm

528
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:42,480
Speaker 10: not the dad, I'm a brother. She turns fishy different,

529
00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 10: shaved a lot like I'm so sorry, and I said, ma'am,

530
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:48,679
Speaker 10: I'm just kidding.

531
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:49,760
Speaker 5: Oh you played that okay.

532
00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:51,560
Speaker 6: I didn't know where that was going. I thought there.

533
00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 6: I thought that could go a lot of different ways.

534
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:55,760
Speaker 6: I got you, okay, So then you acted like you

535
00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:58,720
Speaker 6: were that all right, that's an April fool's joke, although

536
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 6: I thought that story was going to go in a

537
00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:03,240
Speaker 6: different direction. Thank you very much. I appreciate the call.

538

571
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,399

574
00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:27,480
Speaker 7: buzz around town about it.

575
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:31,120
Speaker 6: KSR Bowling dot com. The first was Wednesday, April twenty third.

576
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:31,960
Speaker 6: I will be there.

577
00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:34,120
Speaker 5: We'll even see if we can get Shannon to drive.

578
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:36,359
Speaker 6: That would be amazing if Shannon drives there, because you

579
00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:37,680
Speaker 6: know he doesn't like to get out of his house.

580
00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:42,080
Speaker 6: But KSR Bowling dot Com. Let's talk a little portal stuff.

581
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:45,200
Speaker 6: And by the way, it's at the Collins Southland Lanes.

582
00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:49,080
Speaker 6: Let's talk a little bit about the portal. First, Bryce

583
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:52,520
Speaker 6: Hopkins Drew gets in and he's going to Saint John's.

584
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:56,320
Speaker 6: So Bryce, who played for col is now gonna go

585
00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:58,680
Speaker 6: play for Rick. I was trying to think. I don't

586
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:01,680
Speaker 6: think there's ever been anyone that played for Cal and

587
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:05,000
Speaker 6: Rick all the stories he will be able to tell.

588
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:07,400
Speaker 5: Are you pulling for Bryce at Saint John's.

589
00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:09,439
Speaker 7: I'm pulling for him to write a book when his

590
00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:11,600
Speaker 7: career is over. But yeah, I'll root for him a

591
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:13,800
Speaker 7: little bit. I liked Bryce when he was here. I

592
00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:15,800
Speaker 7: definitely wish you'd played more. I remember him having a

593
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:18,119
Speaker 7: big game and Cal said it's time to start playing Bryce,

594
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:20,119
Speaker 7: and then I'm not sure he played again. So he

595
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:23,639
Speaker 7: was injured the last two seasons, didn't play much. So

596
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:26,520
Speaker 7: I'm glad he's getting another chance, fresh start because I've

597
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:28,479
Speaker 7: always liked him and rooted for him except the one

598
00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:29,320
Speaker 7: time he played Kentucky.

599
00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:32,000
Speaker 6: Got a lot of interactions with Kentucky obviously played here.

600
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:35,080
Speaker 6: Remember then we played him Ryan in the NCAA tournament.

601
00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:38,119
Speaker 6: And now he's gonna play for Rick. You gotta wonder

602
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:41,280
Speaker 6: what is Cal think of a cow guy going to Rick.

603
00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:44,080
Speaker 6: I think that would be literally I would love to

604
00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:46,080
Speaker 6: talk to him when that's over and see what he

605
00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:47,679
Speaker 6: has to say comparing the guys.

606
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,000
Speaker 2: That would be kind of interesting to have him on comparing.

607
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:52,439
Speaker 2: But I saw the picture of him and when he transferred, man,

608
00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:54,560
Speaker 2: he is a grown ass man. Now he's a big,

609
00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 2: strong looking dude. I'd like to have him back here.

610
00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:59,480
Speaker 3: Actually he was a big dude when he got into college.

611
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:01,480
Speaker 3: But I think Rick will get us full potential out

612
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:01,760
Speaker 3: of him.

613
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:03,880
Speaker 4: You know he hasn't. I think he's a lot better

614
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:05,680
Speaker 4: than what he has played and what we've.

615
00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 6: Seen well, he was good for Providence till he got hurt,

616
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:10,640
Speaker 6: Like he was, he was playing pretty well for them

617
00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:12,800
Speaker 6: that first year, and then he got hurt. And now

618
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:15,159
Speaker 6: big Z is back in the portal that got a

619
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 6: ton of news he's leaving Arkansas.

620
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 5: Let's start with this leave us side.

621
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:25,040
Speaker 6: Whether I think most Kentucky fans would say if Mark

622
00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:28,879
Speaker 6: Pope were to want him, everybody would welcome him back.

623
00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:31,960
Speaker 6: But let's just say you were the coach. I'll start

624
00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 6: with you, Drew, and then just go around, would you

625
00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:37,040
Speaker 6: want big Z next year? Let's even say that we're

626
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:40,040
Speaker 6: an option. I kind of think it's not an option. Remember,

627
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,239
Speaker 6: he was probably the one yelling at our fans the

628
00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:44,480
Speaker 6: most when they were here. Cal had to like pull

629
00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:47,760
Speaker 6: him away from the court after it was over. He

630
00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:50,760
Speaker 6: when he left yesterday put on Instagram, wou pig suey.

631
00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:53,119
Speaker 6: But let's just say he wanted to come, Would you

632
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:55,560
Speaker 6: want Zu?

633
00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:59,159
Speaker 7: I would have the conversation. He wouldn't be high on

634
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:02,040
Speaker 7: my list. Actually, this current situation, I think they need

635
00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:05,280
Speaker 7: to get tougher and a little better defensively inside. But

636
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:08,040
Speaker 7: I would if he were really really interested. Just if

637
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:10,159
Speaker 7: I'm Mark Pope and the style bigs he plays. I

638
00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:12,120
Speaker 7: think it would work, So I would hear him out,

639
00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:14,399
Speaker 7: but he wouldn't get my biggest bag. I would have

640
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,639
Speaker 7: other guys ahead of him, but I wouldn't rule him out,

641
00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:18,200
Speaker 7: and I would certainly talk to him.

642
00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:21,720
Speaker 2: Ryan, I'm kind of drue, I think, just the fact

643
00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 2: because he fits Pope's system, and that's when he left

644
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:26,359
Speaker 2: the first time. I thought, man, it'd be good if

645
00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 2: he could stay. He's kind of the guy that would

646
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:31,080
Speaker 2: maybe thrive and what Pope's trying to do offensively. So

647
00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:33,000
Speaker 2: I think I definitely would have the conversation with him,

648
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:36,040
Speaker 2: but I wouldn't spend all my money on him, for sure.

649
00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:39,720
Speaker 4: Shannon no time to move on. We've already had him here.

650
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,399
Speaker 3: I think he struggled a lot of the season with Arkansas,

651
00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:45,400
Speaker 3: and there's sixteen hundred players in the portal. I think

652
00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:47,800
Speaker 3: there's probably a lot more better talent, to be honest

653
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:48,879
Speaker 3: with you, out there than big Z.

654
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:49,920
Speaker 4: So I wouldn't move on.

655
00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:53,720
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I mean, if Pope decided to take he

656
00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:55,600
Speaker 6: might be like, that's fine. But I'm kind of with

657
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:59,679
Speaker 6: Shannon in the sense of I mean, he can't guard anybody,

658
00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:03,400
Speaker 6: and we we can't have we gotta have dudes who

659
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:08,399
Speaker 6: could play some defense. And honestly, I thought Drew that

660
00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:11,159
Speaker 6: Arkansas got better when they stopped playing him right when

661
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:13,600
Speaker 6: they went to a do as they're big. I think

662
00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:15,879
Speaker 6: that's kind of when they went on their run. So

663
00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:18,760
Speaker 6: for me, I think it'd be a no. I heard

664
00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:20,840
Speaker 6: you on the pre show, Shannon, talking about do we

665
00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:24,720
Speaker 6: consider z a cat? You know, I pretty much think

666
00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:28,280
Speaker 6: anybody that plays here I consider to be a cat.

667
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 6: I think, Shannon, you were taking the position they needed

668
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:32,520
Speaker 6: to or no, Billy was taking the position they needed

669
00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:34,080
Speaker 6: to finish here right to be a cat.

670
00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:35,520
Speaker 3: I think it was a caller that was saying that.

671
00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 3: I think if you were here for a year, then

672
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 3: you're a cat. Once a cat, always a cat, is

673
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:39,600
Speaker 3: my opinion on that.

674
00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:44,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's kind of my opinion too. But I mean,

675
00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:44,960
Speaker 5: I did find it.

676
00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:49,120
Speaker 6: Interesting he was Drew the most aggressive of the Wagner

677
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:50,600
Speaker 6: do Z.

678
00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:52,840
Speaker 5: He was the one most.

679
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:55,560
Speaker 6: Aggressive in rup that night against our fans, which I

680
00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:57,640
Speaker 6: thought was kind of odd because he actually got the

681
00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:01,040
Speaker 6: best reaction from our fan base, but he didn't seem

682
00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:03,000
Speaker 6: to like it as much as the rest of him.

683
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:06,000
Speaker 7: There's a video of him on his way to the back. Now,

684
00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:08,440
Speaker 7: he was provoked by fans, but it got pretty heated

685
00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:11,400
Speaker 7: at the same time. If you're Z, I mean Kentucky

686
00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:13,160
Speaker 7: got you into the school in the middle of the semester,

687
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:14,560
Speaker 7: which I still don't know how they pulled that off.

688
00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:16,720
Speaker 7: They were like, yeah, he's in class. Then he brought

689
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:18,840
Speaker 7: him across the pond and just threw him in a class.

690
00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:21,120
Speaker 7: I mean, the fans put up a billboard for him

691
00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:23,880
Speaker 7: to get him eligible. Of all people that should have

692
00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:26,240
Speaker 7: had a little more gratitude towards Kentucky, but it'd be

693
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:27,440
Speaker 7: big Z of that group.

694
00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:31,840
Speaker 5: But he was being booed and his teammates were being booed.

695
00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:34,720
Speaker 6: So yeah, if Popward decided to do it, I'd be fine,

696
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:36,080
Speaker 6: but I kind of would be surprised.

697
00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:37,640
Speaker 4: I think he would go maybe play with his brother

698
00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:38,640
Speaker 4: in Illinois.

699
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,440
Speaker 6: Maybe maybe his brother brother played well against us. Would

700
00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:43,280
Speaker 6: he hit four threes against us in that game?

701
00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:45,040
Speaker 5: I mean, he kind of kept him in it. Who's next?

702
00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:47,320
Speaker 2: Z played well against us at rub He had him

703
00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:48,840
Speaker 2: probably his best game of the year that game.

704
00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:54,080
Speaker 11: Edward Edward, go ahead, Edward, Hey, Matt, Hey, guys, how

705
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:55,160
Speaker 11: you doing good?

706
00:29:57,200 --> 00:29:57,520
Speaker 5: Yeah?

707
00:29:57,560 --> 00:30:00,520
Speaker 11: So twos just a comment and a question really quick

708
00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:04,880
Speaker 11: regarding Bryce Hopkins rooting for the guy now when he

709
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 11: first left and he made those comments about the program,

710
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:10,400
Speaker 11: how cow was making him play like a robot, I

711
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:13,600
Speaker 11: kind of just despise the guy. My favorite moment of

712
00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:16,160
Speaker 11: that season where we lost in the round of thirty

713
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:19,960
Speaker 11: two to Kansas State, was Jacob Toppins swatting his bunk

714
00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:23,200
Speaker 11: off the backboard and then Antonio Reeves going down and

715
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:25,040
Speaker 11: hitting that three that kind of put us up like

716
00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,640
Speaker 11: eight or nine, and then he was crying in Cal's

717
00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 11: arms after.

718
00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:31,080
Speaker 8: It was a pretty sick image. I loved it, and

719
00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:31,840
Speaker 8: that might be.

720
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:35,000
Speaker 11: Awful of me to say, but yeah, go be hop now.

721
00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:38,280
Speaker 11: But wasn't a fan when he left. My question that

722
00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:40,240
Speaker 11: if we all weigh in on, is on behalf of

723
00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:42,720
Speaker 11: my brother who can't call in because he's got a

724
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:48,720
Speaker 11: quote unquote important job compared to me. I'm in sale,

725
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:51,360
Speaker 11: so he thinks what I do isn't real, which is

726
00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:53,040
Speaker 11: totally fine.

727
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:56,480
Speaker 8: But so my question is as far as rival reason.

728
00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:58,960
Speaker 11: When I say that for us, I mean Tennessee Duke qvel,

729
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:01,560
Speaker 11: I feel like they've lost their edge a little bit.

730
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:04,560
Speaker 11: Not pointing to the fans or anything in particular. But

731
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:07,240
Speaker 11: you know, we like Pat Kelcey. We think Cooper Flag

732
00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:10,640
Speaker 11: is generational. We still feel hatred for Tennessee, but I'd

733
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:12,200
Speaker 11: love to get your thoughts on Like, No.

734
00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:14,480
Speaker 6: I think they have taken it. I think the coaches

735
00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:16,800
Speaker 6: have made it a little different. I mean, I appreciate

736
00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 6: to call Rick Barnes is not really hateable. Pat Kelsey's

737
00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:22,400
Speaker 6: not really hateable. I still hate Duke. I don't know

738
00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:24,800
Speaker 6: why your buddy acts like Cooper Flag is likable.

739
00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:27,840
Speaker 5: I still am am rooting for him to slip in

740
00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:28,680
Speaker 5: the final four.

741
00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,560
Speaker 6: I think maybe part of it, Ryan is that Arkansas

742
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:35,000
Speaker 6: with Cal took a lot of the focus this year.

743
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:36,960
Speaker 5: The level stuff will kick up.

744
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:40,080
Speaker 6: I feel like when Kelsey starts winning, he'll start talking

745
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:44,800
Speaker 6: trash and but yeah, probably all those rivalries have tamed

746
00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:47,560
Speaker 6: a little bit, but maybe the Arkansas when is what

747
00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:48,680
Speaker 6: amped up instead.

748
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:51,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that seemed to be the main rivalry this year.

749
00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:52,680
Speaker 2: For sure, it was Arkansas.

750
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:54,160
Speaker 4: But you're right about Louisville.

751
00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:56,400
Speaker 2: We kind of like Pat Kelsey right now, but sooner

752
00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:59,400
Speaker 2: or later something's gonna happen where he'll say something or

753
00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:01,560
Speaker 2: do something and we'll be able to poke at him

754
00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:02,120
Speaker 2: again for su.

755
00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:04,320
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean he's gonna put on his like youth

756
00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:08,760
Speaker 6: XL pants and get upset at some point, and Drew,

757
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:12,120
Speaker 6: you know, like he's gonna say some he's I think

758
00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:15,200
Speaker 6: he did an amazing job this year, winning that fan

759
00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:17,440
Speaker 6: base over and all that, But I do think there's

760
00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:20,720
Speaker 6: some trash talking arrogance in him that'll come out at

761
00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:22,160
Speaker 6: some point, don't you, Drew.

762
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:25,040
Speaker 7: Yeah, But even when it does, it'll be corny. When

763
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:27,840
Speaker 7: we hated Liuleville at their peak of hatred, you know,

764
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:30,320
Speaker 7: they were actually bad guys. I mean they're doing stuff

765
00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:33,360
Speaker 7: in restaurants. You had blowney heads, stealing money. Their players

766
00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:37,320
Speaker 7: were unlikeable. Now, even when Pat Kelsey gets into that,

767
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:39,840
Speaker 7: it's still gonna be corny. Like yesterday, they have this

768
00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:41,440
Speaker 7: new thing, I guess when they get a commit where

769
00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:44,000
Speaker 7: he sends out the Pat signal and it's just him

770
00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:46,320
Speaker 7: putting on his black rim sunglasses.

771
00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:50,320
Speaker 5: What's it called the pet signal? Yeah, tweet that I

772
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:51,400
Speaker 5: didn't see that. What is that?

773
00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:53,680
Speaker 7: Well, I mean there was no context. It's a video

774
00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:55,800
Speaker 7: of him just pulling his glasses out of his pocket

775
00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:58,160
Speaker 7: and putting him on, and the tweet said Pat signal

776
00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:00,240
Speaker 7: I think it means they've gotten a commitment, but like

777
00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:03,160
Speaker 7: the bat signal, But yeah, like that in itself, that's

778
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:06,680
Speaker 7: just it's a different level of villain. Now they're just corny,

779
00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 7: where before they're actual terrible human beings involved villain.

780
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:11,200
Speaker 4: Dork man.

781
00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:18,800
Speaker 5: He's dork man, that's right, dork man. No, like past

782
00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:21,320
Speaker 5: I liked him so far. He seems like a good dude.

783
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:24,280
Speaker 6: But let's wait till they're really good, or let's wait

784
00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:25,600
Speaker 6: till they beat us once.

785
00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:27,600
Speaker 5: Then I think it'll be different.

786
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:30,280
Speaker 6: Do you think Mark Pope is ever gonna be the

787
00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:33,840
Speaker 6: kind of guy who gets into it with any coach ever, Like,

788
00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:35,200
Speaker 6: I don't know if that'll happen.

789
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:39,440
Speaker 7: No, everyone's too beautiful and super special and extraordinary for him.

790
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:40,520
Speaker 5: To say beautiful.

791
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:41,760
Speaker 7: Did you hear last night?

792
00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:43,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, we're gonna talk.

793
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:45,360
Speaker 6: We're gonna talk a little bit later about what his

794
00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:48,320
Speaker 6: comments were on the show, But he said he said

795
00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:50,080
Speaker 6: at one point he was asked about the portal and

796
00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:53,920
Speaker 6: he goes, it's beautiful special chaos, And I was like,

797
00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:59,080
Speaker 6: that's one of the strangest explanations, beautiful special chaos.

798
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,560
Speaker 7: I have extraordinaries. In the first segment last night, he.

799
00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:10,000
Speaker 6: Loves beautiful, he loves extraordinary. What else does he look? Yeah,

800
00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:12,880
Speaker 6: he's always like super. He uses super a lot. He

801
00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:16,520
Speaker 6: says super quite a bit. He loves those uh adjectives

802
00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:19,400
Speaker 6: that really hit home. How some how great something is

803
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:21,640
Speaker 6: if I'm nine two eight oh twenty two eighty seven.

804
00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:25,880
Speaker 6: The women's basketball thing continues to sort of be a

805
00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:28,600
Speaker 6: talking point. We'll get into it and some more right

806
00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:29,480
Speaker 6: for this chaos art.

807
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:37,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, this is Pope, right, yep, everything's beautiful.

808
00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:38,840
Speaker 5: Everything's beautiful.

809
00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:41,359
Speaker 6: There's a part of me though that MP's being able

810
00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:45,000
Speaker 6: to live life like that shit right, Like, thing's beautiful.

811
00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:47,719
Speaker 6: You know, you don't like you are like a cynical

812
00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:50,640
Speaker 6: dark lord. You know in terms of how you look

813
00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:51,120
Speaker 6: at things.

814
00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:53,439
Speaker 5: Thank you wouldn't you? Would you like to be able

815
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:57,200
Speaker 5: to just look around and go, it's beautiful. The portal is.

816
00:34:57,160 --> 00:35:01,880
Speaker 4: Beautiful, shine rainbows, and.

817
00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:03,680
Speaker 5: Yes we have to that. That's what a bet.

818
00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:05,520
Speaker 6: What's much better than to sit there and be like, oh,

819
00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 6: everything's miserable right now?

820
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:09,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, I wish I had that outlook on life. That's

821
00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:11,279
Speaker 4: great it is. I'm not mad at it.

822
00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:15,600
Speaker 2: That's uh text machine, Pope said before in the Tennessee game.

823
00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:18,280
Speaker 2: He used the word beautiful pressure. We have beautiful pressure.

824
00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:21,480
Speaker 5: Even when pressure is beautiful, that would be great.

825
00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:24,239
Speaker 6: What person writes Matt, I don't consider it's a text

826
00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:26,719
Speaker 6: machine seven seven two seven seven four five two five four.

827
00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:30,760
Speaker 6: No one that leaves Kentucky is a cat. They chose

828
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:33,000
Speaker 6: to leave. Yeah, I think you're gonna have to change

829
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:36,840
Speaker 6: that view if you. I mean, is Kyle Wilcher a cat?

830
00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:39,480
Speaker 6: Like he won a national championship here, we're gonna act

831
00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:41,560
Speaker 6: like he's not. He seems to still love this play.

832
00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:43,520
Speaker 6: I don't think you can. I don't think you can

833
00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:46,839
Speaker 6: have Ryan that view in twenty twenty five. I mean

834
00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:48,640
Speaker 6: you can have it, but I think you're gonna be

835
00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:50,719
Speaker 6: disappointed a lot if you do well.

836
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:52,640
Speaker 2: I guess that the test is what we just saw

837
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:55,439
Speaker 2: z dj Ado. They all went to Arkansas to play

838
00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:58,200
Speaker 2: for col Are they cow guys at Arkansas or do

839
00:35:58,280 --> 00:35:59,239
Speaker 2: we consider him a cat?

840
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:02,720
Speaker 6: I think they're both. They're cow guys in a cat.

841
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:05,600
Speaker 6: They played here, but they played here for cal. I

842
00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:09,880
Speaker 6: don't think those things for me are mutually exclusive, although

843
00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:11,719
Speaker 6: they might be for some people like Ryan. I do

844
00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:13,480
Speaker 6: want to go back to you for this because the

845
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:18,240
Speaker 6: Cassie row thing. I am amazed how many people are

846
00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:22,200
Speaker 6: like genuinely upset about this. I think it's mostly, honestly

847
00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:26,160
Speaker 6: an Eastern Kentucky thing, specifically a north eastern Kentucky thing.

848
00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:29,840
Speaker 6: People who are from like fifteenth sixteenth region maybe watched

849
00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:32,359
Speaker 6: her play when she was growing up.

850
00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:34,320
Speaker 5: But there's a lot of people upset.

851
00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:38,000
Speaker 6: I think her dad went and Drew did an unfiltered

852
00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:41,840
Speaker 6: interview yesterday and in so doing kind of stirred the

853
00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:45,480
Speaker 6: pot a little bit more on it. You know, I

854
00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:50,719
Speaker 6: gave my opinion yesterday, which was basically, you know, we

855
00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:55,279
Speaker 6: don't know everything, and I'm hesitant to be outraised when

856
00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:58,200
Speaker 6: I don't know everything. And it's also the modern business

857
00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:01,600
Speaker 6: of college basketball. But do you think this is gonna stick?

858
00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:04,400
Speaker 6: Or is this just like season's over, we don't have

859
00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:06,320
Speaker 6: anything else to talk about. I mean, I hear the

860
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:09,640
Speaker 6: women's basketball team may get a big transfer commit today,

861
00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:13,360
Speaker 6: So I wonder, you know, maybe after that happens, people

862
00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:15,319
Speaker 6: look at things differently. But do you do you think

863
00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:17,560
Speaker 6: this is gonna stick with Kenny for a little while.

864
00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:19,840
Speaker 2: Well, that's what I'm afraid of. I'm afraid, you know,

865
00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:22,960
Speaker 2: he did such a good job of getting our fan

866
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:25,640
Speaker 2: base for women's basketball super excited about what they did

867
00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:27,560
Speaker 2: this year. The product on the court was so good

868
00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:31,200
Speaker 2: that Memorial Cosseum was sold out. Fans love coming to

869
00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:34,600
Speaker 2: the game. My fear is that this is called a

870
00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:37,319
Speaker 2: little cause, a little fracture in the fan base. That

871
00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:39,719
Speaker 2: may be hard to get those people back, just the

872
00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:41,280
Speaker 2: ones that are on Cassidy side.

873
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,360
Speaker 5: But do you really like one statement?

874
00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:47,319
Speaker 6: But haven't we seen over the years, if you win,

875
00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:48,760
Speaker 6: everybody gets over everything.

876
00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:50,440
Speaker 5: Yeah?

877
00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:52,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, he goes to the final four, that's gonna probably.

878
00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:56,479
Speaker 6: I feel like if you lose, then people will bring

879
00:37:56,520 --> 00:38:01,319
Speaker 6: this up as a thing to criticize. But if you win, Drew,

880
00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:04,360
Speaker 6: doesn't everybody just get over everything at some point?

881
00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:06,920
Speaker 7: I think so. As long as he goes out and

882
00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:10,560
Speaker 7: gets a good portal class and carries that into next year,

883
00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:12,600
Speaker 7: I think everyone will move on from this. Now. If

884
00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 7: he goes and signs three people and there's just four

885
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:16,799
Speaker 7: empty chairs on the bench, it might linger a little bit,

886
00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:19,200
Speaker 7: but I think he's he's got a plan or he

887
00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:20,839
Speaker 7: wouldn't have done it, and he's gonna add a lot

888
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:22,320
Speaker 7: of pieces that'll be helpful and at the end of

889
00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:24,520
Speaker 7: the day, that's his job to make sure he's putting

890
00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:25,000
Speaker 7: the best Russ.

891
00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:27,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean you can. I think, Shannon, you can

892
00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:31,000
Speaker 6: have both of these views equally. View number one, it

893
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:33,360
Speaker 6: does stink for the kid. If she wanted to play

894
00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:39,080
Speaker 6: and was and wanted to have her senior year, it

895
00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:41,440
Speaker 6: stinks for her, and I could see why she and

896
00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:43,080
Speaker 6: her dad would be upset.

897
00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:44,480
Speaker 5: I get that.

898
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:47,720
Speaker 6: You can also take the view of this is modern

899
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:54,279
Speaker 6: college basketball, and we are upset because she's from Kentucky.

900
00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:58,200
Speaker 6: If because we every coach has done this to players

901
00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:02,399
Speaker 6: from other schools all the time. And we also don't

902
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:05,800
Speaker 6: know the specifics of the conversation. I think that's important.

903
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:08,480
Speaker 6: Did he say you can't be on the team? Did

904
00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:11,360
Speaker 6: he say I suggest you transfer? I mean, I don't know, Shannon,

905
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:14,880
Speaker 6: Like I don't know exactly what was said, and Kenny's

906
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:18,040
Speaker 6: probably gonna not say anything. I wouldn't think, or at

907
00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:20,160
Speaker 6: least he won't, so so I don't know, Shannon. I

908
00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:23,640
Speaker 6: I have mixed emotions on it, but I am surprised

909
00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:26,960
Speaker 6: how many people are very upset about it.

910
00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:29,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you're right, it's all in the details. We

911
00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:31,960
Speaker 3: weren't in the office when they had those conversations. What

912
00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:34,160
Speaker 3: makes it more confusing for me is, you know, in

913
00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:36,360
Speaker 3: that first round of the NCAA tournament when they were

914
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:39,799
Speaker 3: playing Liberty, Kenny Brooks brought Cassidy Row in to try to,

915
00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:42,600
Speaker 3: you know, hold off Liberty, like she played a significant

916
00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:45,680
Speaker 3: role on this team. The confusing part for me is

917
00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:47,920
Speaker 3: how do you not find a roster spot for that person?

918
00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:49,440
Speaker 3: But at the end of the day, his job is

919
00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:51,439
Speaker 3: to put together the best roster and the best team

920
00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:53,040
Speaker 3: that he can and if he thinks that she shouldn't

921
00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:54,440
Speaker 3: be a part of it, then that's his decision.

922
00:39:55,080 --> 00:39:55,480
Speaker 5: Yeah.

923
00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:59,000
Speaker 6: Well, I mean this is back to if you don't

924
00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:01,360
Speaker 6: like these kinds of things, that's why you need contracts

925
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:05,320
Speaker 6: where both sides can't you know, I mean both sides

926
00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:08,520
Speaker 6: can't sort of stop the other one like you you

927
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:11,640
Speaker 6: admitted to each other. That's why I think Jay bills

928
00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:15,560
Speaker 6: suggestion of employment contracts is really the best thing to

929
00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:19,240
Speaker 6: do going forward. Who's up next, Jacob, Jacob, Go ahead, Jacob.

930
00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:24,719
Speaker 8: I met I actually caught in to talk about the

931
00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:28,399
Speaker 8: whole Casierro situation. You know, for me, it comes down

932
00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:31,719
Speaker 8: to is Kenny the right person for the job? And

933
00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:32,759
Speaker 8: I think it's one hundred percent.

934
00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:33,120
Speaker 5: Yes.

935
00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:37,600
Speaker 8: I think that what he did for the team this

936
00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:42,439
Speaker 8: year he deserves an A plus. He brought them back

937
00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:44,799
Speaker 8: from obscurity. I think the quickest way to get them

938
00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:48,200
Speaker 8: back to obscurity would be to try to drive away

939
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:52,320
Speaker 8: Kenny Brooks. I think that I just have to trust

940
00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:55,040
Speaker 8: that this is a decision that we might not understand,

941
00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:57,840
Speaker 8: but it's the decision that he made that he thought

942
00:40:57,880 --> 00:40:59,640
Speaker 8: was best and he just got to trust his leadership.

943
00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:01,239
Speaker 8: That's to my take on it.

944
00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:05,480
Speaker 6: I appreciate the call and for the most part agree, right.

945
00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:08,560
Speaker 6: I mean, I think it was Bill Belichick baby that said,

946
00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:12,200
Speaker 6: if you're gonna ask me to make you know, to

947
00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:17,440
Speaker 6: make the meal, I gotta buy the groceries. Right. I

948
00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:19,160
Speaker 6: do wonder if there's a part of that with this,

949
00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:21,680
Speaker 6: like if you're gonna ask me to do it, then

950
00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:26,200
Speaker 6: you know, then you gotta let me pick the players, right.

951
00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:27,799
Speaker 6: I think that might be part of it.

952
00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:31,040
Speaker 2: Well, there's no doubt we understand his motive to try

953
00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:33,040
Speaker 2: to get the best roster possible to try to win

954
00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:35,520
Speaker 2: a championship and go to the final four. That makes

955
00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:38,400
Speaker 2: perfect sense. But like we talked about, you got fifteen

956
00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:40,360
Speaker 2: scholarships starting next year, this girl's gonna.

957
00:41:40,160 --> 00:41:41,880
Speaker 6: Be So it seems like it bothers you, like it

958
00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:45,720
Speaker 6: seems like you are more you are of this show.

959
00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:48,520
Speaker 6: I think the most bothered by it. In thirty seconds,

960
00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:49,760
Speaker 6: articulate why.

961
00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:52,719
Speaker 2: I think it's just because when she was the one

962
00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:55,040
Speaker 2: that stuck around and kind of held everybody together when

963
00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:56,120
Speaker 2: the coaching change.

964
00:41:57,120 --> 00:41:59,000
Speaker 5: But do you know that she held everybody together?

965
00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:01,719
Speaker 6: Like I mean, you say that a lot, but is

966
00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:04,120
Speaker 6: it like like Georgia was the leader of that.

967
00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:07,839
Speaker 2: Team, Cassidy was the one though that was to carry

968
00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:09,360
Speaker 2: over from the only one to carry out from the

969
00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:12,400
Speaker 2: old old regime, and she was able to like bring

970
00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:15,640
Speaker 2: help bond that bridge, so to speak with everybody else.

971
00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:19,200
Speaker 3: I just want to throw in that I bought a

972
00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:20,600
Speaker 3: lot of mills that I didn't cook and they were

973
00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:22,160
Speaker 3: all good for the most part.

974
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:25,800
Speaker 6: I just I've never cooked Ombia, so you know, but

975
00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:29,920
Speaker 6: I'm learning, I'm learning and I get it.

976
00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:31,719
Speaker 5: Well, it's interesting. We'll see. I think this will still

977
00:42:31,719 --> 00:42:33,200
Speaker 5: be a topic going forward.

978
00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:35,920
Speaker 6: We'll take a break, come back talk about Pope's comments yesterday.

979
00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:36,520
Speaker 5: It's KOSR
