00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 3: ESPN at night, and then taping a couple of podcasts

23
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 3: during the day, so a lot of talking. Very excited.

24
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:19,280
Speaker 3: Last night when the show was about to start, Riding

25
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,559
Speaker 3: found out big Dallas Cowboys story. That's what I wanted,

26
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 3: you know, you know when you go on national radio,

27
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 3: let's talk more about the cowboys. Got to do that

28
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:27,840
Speaker 3: last night.

29
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,319
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, you guys don't talk enough about Dak Prescott

30
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:30,959
Speaker 4: and the Cowboys.

31
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 3: This was Jerry Jones said that Michaeh Parsons could just

32
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 3: get in a car wreck. He was like, well, why

33
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 3: should we give him a contract? What if he gets

34
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 3: in a car wreck? And I thought, why speak that

35
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:46,119
Speaker 3: in to exist.

36
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 2: Suspect number one?

37
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:50,280
Speaker 3: I think that's probably true. So we got to do that.

38
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 3: And then you also had the Bengals. Those the two

39
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:56,640
Speaker 3: big topics were him and then the Bengals owner saying that,

40
00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 3: I guess their first round pick. He didn't want to

41
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 3: with us. He wanted to make sure he didn't get

42
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 3: in to quote any foolishness, which is exactly what a

43
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,120
Speaker 3: ninety year old man would say, don't you get into

44
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 3: any foolishness. Doesn't want to pay them if they get

45
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,360
Speaker 3: in trouble, Yes, don't good. But I like that he

46
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:17,600
Speaker 3: used the word foolishness because that's really, Yeah, that's really

47
00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:19,919
Speaker 3: something an old person says, don't you go out there

48
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 3: getting into any foolishness.

49
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 4: I don't know the last time I've even heard somebody

50
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:24,080
Speaker 4: use that word.

51
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,520
Speaker 3: I think my grandparents used the word foolishness. They would say,

52
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:30,240
Speaker 3: you know, any time you're out at night after ten pm,

53
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:34,680
Speaker 3: it's just a bunch of foolishness. And so they didn't. So,

54
00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 3: you know, those were the two big topics last night.

55
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 3: It was it was fun.

56
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:39,920
Speaker 5: And you had to stretch those two topics into how

57
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 5: many hours?

58
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:42,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just ended up talking about other boks. I mean,

59
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:46,519
Speaker 3: if you haven't listened to Myron and I on Sunday

60
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 3: mornings and now we're on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday this week

61
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:54,120
Speaker 3: from seven to ten, it's just KSR but me and

62
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 3: Myren and a little less TBT and a little more

63
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,919
Speaker 3: everything else, little more Jerry Jones, a little or because

64
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:02,959
Speaker 3: I just I can't talk about that stuff. So we

65
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 3: end up talking about other things and you know, I

66
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 3: fully transferred to ESPN into I'm just gonna talk about

67
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:09,960
Speaker 3: whatever I'm going to talk about.

68
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,119
Speaker 5: We're currently living in. If we had to keep talking

69
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 5: about it, I have already hit my max with the

70
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:17,800
Speaker 5: Bengals owner and Jerry Jones Micah's.

71
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 6: And then.

72
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:21,799
Speaker 5: To think there's another hour forty five ago.

73
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,680
Speaker 3: So yeah, well all right, So I think the biggest

74
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 3: story in uk Land today is is this whole question

75
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:35,200
Speaker 3: of of the revenue situation? Right, So let's go through

76
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:37,840
Speaker 3: the Let's go through the little the timeline. We'll start

77
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 3: with the Matt Noorlander uh comes out yesterday. He has

78
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,680
Speaker 3: been at the Peach Jam, which is where it's not

79
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 3: just now a recruit thing, it's where all the coaches

80
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 3: get together and it's where these people find out gossip.

81
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 7: Right.

82
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 3: I'm always interested when the national reporters go to the

83
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,960
Speaker 3: Peach Jam what they say after, because they usually find

84
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 3: out a lot of important stuff. And Matt Norlander rights

85
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:03,120
Speaker 3: he's talking about how and if you've been listening to

86
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 3: show Ryan, we've been talking about this for a while.

87
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 3: The Big East could spend all their money on basketball

88
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 3: and the coaches in the other conferences.

89
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 8: Are worried that's right, they'll have basically.

90
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:17,599
Speaker 3: Are they're worried that Villanova, Yukon, Saint John's are gonna

91
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 3: just have so much bigger REV share budgets. And they

92
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,239
Speaker 3: said that this past year wasn't a big deal because

93
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:30,760
Speaker 3: all these people put their Nile money in before before

94
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,239
Speaker 3: the rev share started. But it'll be a big deal

95
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 3: next year, sure, And in the course of the article

96
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:41,279
Speaker 3: he throws in though, well except Kentucky, because at Kentucky,

97
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 3: of the twenty point five million dollars they get to

98
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 3: REV share, they're gonna spend nine and a half on basketball. Now,

99
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 3: the other schools, the number is supposed to be like

100
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 3: three to three and a half, which would mean Kentucky

101
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 3: is spending million, triple what any other of the power

102
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 3: for schools are spending. Well, that's a pretty amazing number,

103
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 3: in part because it would ensure that Kentucky basketball has

104
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 3: Shannon any player they would want.

105
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:12,799
Speaker 8: But then.

106
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 3: The implication on football is that the football team would

107
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 3: have five to six million dollars less than every other

108
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 3: SEC school, which would be it would make being good

109
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:31,279
Speaker 3: at football even harder than it is now. So that

110
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:34,919
Speaker 3: was Matt Norlanders report. Uh Later in the night, I

111
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 3: started getting calls from people associated with the university and football.

112
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 3: I was on ESPN, so I couldn't take these calls.

113
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:46,360
Speaker 3: But you know, when you start to see certain names

114
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:51,520
Speaker 3: pop up, it's like, Okay, there's a message. They they

115
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:53,360
Speaker 3: got something, they need media. But so you know, I'm

116
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 3: sitting here talking about Jerry Jones and foolishness and during

117
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 3: the commercial breaks going well should I call these people?

118
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:02,599
Speaker 3: And then finally I did. And then I was told

119
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 3: by a number of different people that that report is

120
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 3: not one hundred percent accurate, that football is getting a

121
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:13,280
Speaker 3: substantial amount of money and is getting I was told

122
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 3: the language was competitive with the other schools in the SEC,

123
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:21,160
Speaker 3: So I don't really know how to read that. Matt

124
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:26,840
Speaker 3: Norlander is almost never wrong. He texted me later in

125
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 3: the night when he saw my tweet and was like, hey, man,

126
00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:32,039
Speaker 3: I'm just telling you what everybody said, and I've confirmed

127
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,799
Speaker 3: it with a lot of people. So Norlander's basically saying

128
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 3: Basketball and UK people are saying this. I spoke to

129
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:46,960
Speaker 3: football and UK people saying the opposite. So I don't

130
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 3: really know what to believe. I really don't know what

131
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:55,920
Speaker 3: to believe, and I'm not sure what's accurate, but one

132
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 3: of them can't be true, So what do you make

133
00:06:59,440 --> 00:06:59,600
Speaker 3: of it?

134
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 4: It's interesting to hear your angle the story, because, yeah,

135
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 4: I came in thinking that Matt Norlander's report was probably

136
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 4: pretty close to being accurate.

137
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:07,440
Speaker 3: Did you not read my tweet?

138
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:07,880
Speaker 6: No?

139
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:08,719
Speaker 2: Huh?

140
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:09,280
Speaker 3: Why not?

141
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:11,040
Speaker 8: I didn't know, Shandon, he.

142
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:13,440
Speaker 3: Doesn't read my tweets. You don't want to before the

143
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 3: show lot. I don't tweet that much. I think I

144
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 3: probably have sent two tweets yesterday. I can't listen to

145
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,080
Speaker 3: you say I do not tweet nearly as much as

146
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 3: mister spectacular. He is a lot more.

147
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 8: I don't know.

148
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 3: He's a lot more tweet tacular than I. Okay, but

149
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:31,720
Speaker 3: now that.

150
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 4: You've heard that, I think Kentucky would want to have

151
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 4: the football team be competitive, but I don't think it's

152
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,480
Speaker 4: gonna be near what the other SEC football schools are

153
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 4: going to get. So I still think basketball gets a

154
00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 4: proportionately larger get.

155
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 3: There, three times more than the others.

156
00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 8: That's a big number. That's a big numb maybe double.

157
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,200
Speaker 3: But if it were the case that basketball was gonna

158
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:56,080
Speaker 3: get so much more, Drew, wouldn't the football people be

159
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 3: up in arms?

160
00:07:57,720 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 5: That's my thing. I find it hard to believe. I

161
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 5: think Kentucky will give a little more than most SEC

162
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 5: schools than they should, but the number Norlander put out

163
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,880
Speaker 5: was way too high, Like basketball doesn't even need that

164
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,160
Speaker 5: much for one. And then I feel like in the

165
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 5: last six months, Stoops has been talking about how he

166
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 5: and Mitch are on good terms and he feels like

167
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 5: he's starting to get the support he wants. If he

168
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:20,560
Speaker 5: was getting the percentage that Norlander put out, Stoops would

169
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 5: not have been so happy about his status here lately.

170
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 5: He would have been on fire at media days of

171
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 5: basketball was getting three times when it is everywhere else.

172
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 3: I can just tell you that privately, when the football

173
00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 3: program has felt disrespected or felt like they weren't getting

174
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 3: their fair share, they may not say it publicly, but

175
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 3: they're blowing me up privately. Yeah, okay, like I'm hearing privately.

176
00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:53,000
Speaker 3: I can't say this publicly, but okay, this was the opposite.

177
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 3: This was almost saying I don't know what everybody's talking about.

178
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:02,920
Speaker 3: So I mean, Matt, I know Matt Norlander. He would

179
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,800
Speaker 3: not make that up somebody. So I am sure the

180
00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:09,720
Speaker 3: basketball people or the university people that he talked to

181
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,920
Speaker 3: are saying that, but I also know what the football

182
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,320
Speaker 3: people are talking about, which gets me to my point.

183
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:22,400
Speaker 3: Mitch Barnhart needs to tell people so when they went

184
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:25,599
Speaker 3: to this private you know that the athletic department is

185
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 3: now this private entity. When I a member of the

186
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,000
Speaker 3: university called me when that happens and explained it to me,

187
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,079
Speaker 3: and then I asked them one question at the end,

188
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 3: are you all going to comply with the rules that

189
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,920
Speaker 3: require you to release public information? Are you doing this

190
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:46,080
Speaker 3: basically to make it to where the public doesn't know

191
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 3: where their money's going? And they said to me flat

192
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 3: out no, we will still release the same things we

193
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:57,640
Speaker 3: always released. Okay, I'll take them at their work. But

194
00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 3: don't you think Mitch Barnhardt and this athletic department should

195
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:05,840
Speaker 3: tell the fans where the money's going. Don't you think

196
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:09,440
Speaker 3: we should know what percentage of our money is going

197
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:12,720
Speaker 3: to basketball, is going to football, is going to women's basketball,

198
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,160
Speaker 3: et cetera. Don't you think that's something people should know?

199
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 3: Like we have two completely conflicting reports here. Do you

200
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 3: think Mitch Barnhardt should tell people what the university is

201
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:23,600
Speaker 3: focused on?

202
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 4: I do. I'm in I'm in that boat that I

203
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:27,920
Speaker 4: think he should. I think he'll he'll be fair. I mean,

204
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:30,839
Speaker 4: if one thing I think he's known for it, he's

205
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 4: going to be fair to his program.

206
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:34,520
Speaker 3: But don't but fair is in the eye of the beholder.

207
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 3: We will have callers who will say, sure, give UK

208
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:41,800
Speaker 3: football the same amount of money Alabama in Georgia gets.

209
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,720
Speaker 3: We will have people like Shannon who will say give

210
00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:46,599
Speaker 3: it to basketball.

211
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:48,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think my number was nine million when we

212
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:50,760
Speaker 2: talked about that in Somerset at the Virginia.

213
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 3: If you're so, fair is in the eye the beholder. Yeah,

214
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:57,720
Speaker 3: don't you think. Mitch Barnhart, though, owes people the explanation

215
00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:00,480
Speaker 3: drew of what is true.

216
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:02,600
Speaker 5: Oh that's the whole takeaway from all of this, because

217
00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:04,640
Speaker 5: yesterday people are fighting on the internet when we don't

218
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:08,520
Speaker 5: even know what's accurate, like fans defending football, fans defending basketball,

219
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:10,600
Speaker 5: when we really don't even know the true story that's

220
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:12,680
Speaker 5: about Barnhart at least need to say this is what

221
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:14,960
Speaker 5: it is and then let fans decide what.

222
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:18,160
Speaker 3: Barnheart's only said it'll be flexible. Well, flexible is a

223
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:21,480
Speaker 3: good way to say it could be anything, right, Like

224
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:24,800
Speaker 3: I mean flexible is the flexible is the least meaningful

225
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,320
Speaker 3: word in the in the English language when it comes

226
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 3: to this, because flexible could mean fifty twenty million dollars

227
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 3: to basketball or zero.

228
00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 5: Well, the timing is good because a week from Friday's

229
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:37,160
Speaker 5: Media Day Football and he hasn't done it a while,

230
00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:40,160
Speaker 5: but most times he opens media day with his own

231
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:43,599
Speaker 5: press conc usually yeah, this year, I think, especially with

232
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 5: this happening right now a week before media day, he

233
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,200
Speaker 5: has to say maybe they don't even know yet, but say,

234
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 5: this is the way we're leaning.

235
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:52,560
Speaker 3: This is the directory they had to know because they're

236
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 3: paying these rosters. If they do know, they I think

237
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:57,520
Speaker 3: it's fair. I think it's fair to go, hey, we're

238
00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:01,800
Speaker 3: about to start a season. What I don't necessarily think

239
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:05,079
Speaker 3: the general public needs to know what each player is

240
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:09,880
Speaker 3: being paid. Okay, I don't know if that's good, but

241
00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 3: I strongly believe, and you should be recording this, Mario,

242
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:20,160
Speaker 3: I strongly believe turn it on of all the times

243
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 3: to stop. Why did you stop right there?

244
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:24,080
Speaker 2: What do you strongly believe?

245
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 3: I strongly believe that he should say what goes to

246
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 3: each program? It is the case that like ten percent

247
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:36,360
Speaker 3: is going to go to like women's basketball slash baseball.

248
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 3: So let's assume two point six million dollars is going Okay,

249
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:44,320
Speaker 3: that means there's eighteen million dollars left between football and

250
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:49,720
Speaker 3: men's basketball. Mitch Barnhardt should be telling people where that

251
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:53,040
Speaker 3: money is going. And I think it would be interesting

252
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:56,120
Speaker 3: to see where the fans think it should go. Seven

253
00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:58,560
Speaker 3: seven two seven sevent four five two five four. What

254
00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:01,320
Speaker 3: should go to basketball? What you Let's assume it's eighteen

255
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 3: million dollars because I'm pretty sure ten percent is going

256
00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:06,360
Speaker 3: to go to baseball, women's basketball, et cetera. So throw

257
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:09,920
Speaker 3: that two point six to the side. Eighteen million bucks,

258
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:13,840
Speaker 3: which what goes to? What you got Matt Norlanders saying

259
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 3: we're going nine to nine? Yeah, right that. I haven't

260
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:19,720
Speaker 3: got numbers, But the football people are saying we're going

261
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,559
Speaker 3: to be competitive with the SEC, which is like fifteen

262
00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:26,800
Speaker 3: and three. So which is it? That's a big difference.

263
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 3: That's the difference between having the best basketball team in

264
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 3: the country and having a football team that cannot compete.

265
00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:39,880
Speaker 3: What are you gonna do? Mitch should tell us I

266
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 3: don't think there's do you Is there any reason to

267
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:42,720
Speaker 3: hide that number?

268
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:43,040
Speaker 5: No?

269
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 4: Not at all, especially when football is your money maker.

270
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:49,320
Speaker 4: Your budget maker depends on what you bring in for football.

271
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,199
Speaker 3: And just so you know, the other SEC schools have acknowledged,

272
00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 3: not publicly but kind of privately, we're doing the fifteen

273
00:13:55,559 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 3: and three. Yeah right, yeah, like everybody's everybody's greed fifteen

274
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:01,320
Speaker 3: and thirty.

275
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:02,840
Speaker 4: So when you say, when your people were telling you

276
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:04,520
Speaker 4: that they were gonna be competitive, like how.

277
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:07,320
Speaker 3: They do not say fifteen and three, but they said,

278
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,360
Speaker 3: I don't know where people are getting the nine and nine.

279
00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:11,559
Speaker 3: That's not even close to accurate.

280
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 5: And that seems pretty outrageous if they were to go

281
00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 5: that route.

282
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:16,680
Speaker 2: Do you think that maybe Mitch feels like if he

283
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 2: does put these numbers out, which I think he should,

284
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 2: but do you think maybe he's thinking, well, I'm just

285
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 2: gonna divide this fan base. I'm gonna have football fans

286
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:24,280
Speaker 2: hating me.

287
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 3: Guess what, get over it? Like that you're being a

288
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:30,840
Speaker 3: leader does not mean you're always gonna be popular. When

289
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 3: you make your leadership decisions only to be popular, you

290
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:36,720
Speaker 3: know you're gonna get criticism. But I'll tell you this,

291
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:39,120
Speaker 3: I'd much prefer him to get up and say it's

292
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:42,360
Speaker 3: gonna be fourteen and four, it's gonna be thirteen and

293
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:46,200
Speaker 3: what at five and explain why and let people know.

294
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:48,920
Speaker 3: The worst position is to have it where fans are arguing,

295
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 3: like Drew said, and don't even know the correct information.

296
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, and as fans, we need to be able to

297
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 5: set our expectations. If football team win six games, but

298
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:58,880
Speaker 5: I don't know if they had two million or twelve million,

299
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 5: there's a pretty big different.

300
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:03,200
Speaker 3: It's actually not fair to Mark Stoops if he's getting

301
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 3: half the money for people for people to not.

302
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 8: Know that competing against schools that are competing.

303
00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:11,520
Speaker 3: To get schools that have six to eight million more dollars.

304
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:13,960
Speaker 3: People should know that. And by the way, if Mark

305
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 3: Pope's getting three times as much money as the teams

306
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:22,080
Speaker 3: in the SEC Shane, and we should know that right games,

307
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,520
Speaker 3: So I think that they should know eight five nine,

308
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 3: two eighth twenty two eighty seven. How would you split

309
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 3: the money? Text machine is seven seven two seven four

310
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:33,000
Speaker 3: five two five four. We'll take a break right back, Canser,

311
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:37,240
Speaker 3: welcome back, take you sports radio, Shan and I just

312
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:40,720
Speaker 3: put on I had to bite the bullet and get readers.

313
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:42,040
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I see that.

314
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 3: So it's really it's really only for my phone because like,

315
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:49,000
Speaker 3: if I'm going to look at these texts, I noticed

316
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:51,760
Speaker 3: I was squinning a lot, and I don't want to

317
00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 3: get those old man lines.

318
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 2: Are you going to do like the old man thing,

319
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 2: like where you push him down to the bottom of

320
00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:57,520
Speaker 2: your nose.

321
00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:01,000
Speaker 3: Well, we were at the horse track, We're in the

322
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,000
Speaker 3: for the oaks, and I had I had them on

323
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:06,960
Speaker 3: and my friend Tall was like, look at old man, Matt,

324
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 3: because I did have them on my nose like she

325
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:12,160
Speaker 3: was in fish.

326
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:14,120
Speaker 5: You can hang them around your neck.

327
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, I can't do that, but so I do. I

328
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:18,640
Speaker 3: have to put these audits. It's either that or like

329
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:21,440
Speaker 3: get like old man lines squinting. So I had I

330
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,640
Speaker 3: have to put these on one person, rites, Matt. There

331
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:28,080
Speaker 3: you go again, try to cause trouble in the athletic department.

332
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 3: Why don't you give Barnhardt time to address the issues.

333
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:34,760
Speaker 3: That's become a big thing recently, people saying about leadership,

334
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:37,440
Speaker 3: give them time. Well, how much time do you get?

335
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,280
Speaker 3: I mean the season's about to start, right, so I

336
00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,800
Speaker 3: mean I'll give him the next week, but next Friday

337
00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:44,640
Speaker 3: he should get asked and if he gets out there

338
00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 3: and says it'll be flexible, flexible is a good way

339
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 3: to not answer the question. The question is what is

340
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 3: the amount of money? And I'm fine if they say, well,

341
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:57,320
Speaker 3: we don't want to give all the specifics, but we

342
00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:01,400
Speaker 3: are in line with you know, I'm okay with that.

343
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 3: But like, there's a big difference between nine and nine

344
00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:08,240
Speaker 3: and fifteen and three. Yeah, difference. There's a big difference.

345
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,040
Speaker 3: So my question to you before we go to the phones,

346
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:13,280
Speaker 3: because we've got people on is let's just assume it's

347
00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:15,760
Speaker 3: twenty point six million dollars. Two point six is going

348
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:17,920
Speaker 3: to baseball and women's basketball. I think that's I think

349
00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:22,200
Speaker 3: that pretty much everyone in sports has agreed to do that. Okay,

350
00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:24,640
Speaker 3: because they some schools are giving baseball a little bit more,

351
00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:28,119
Speaker 3: but they've all agreed you can't give women's basketball and

352
00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:30,399
Speaker 3: women's sports nothing true, and you have to have a

353
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:34,200
Speaker 3: baseball team. So let's just assume that's there eighteen million bucks.

354
00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:38,159
Speaker 3: You're in charge of the athletic department, not asking to

355
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:41,119
Speaker 3: be goofy, be real, which are you? What are you

356
00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:42,880
Speaker 3: given to each program? Ryan?

357
00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:45,320
Speaker 8: You go first, I'm probably going like somewhere around twelve

358
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:45,800
Speaker 8: and six.

359
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:49,040
Speaker 3: Twelve and six now, so that would be three million

360
00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:51,040
Speaker 3: less than the rest of the SEC in football and

361
00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:52,960
Speaker 3: double the rest of the SEC and basketball.

362
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:55,200
Speaker 4: I think that's what I think most of our fans

363
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:57,680
Speaker 4: want to see our basketball program get to that level,

364
00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:01,400
Speaker 4: be the elite, and I think twelve mans Steel work

365
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:04,359
Speaker 4: competitive with the other schools in the twick.

366
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:05,080
Speaker 3: What about you?

367
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,880
Speaker 5: I am doing uh, seventy percent, twenty percent, so it'd

368
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,800
Speaker 5: be was that four million for basketball? Four ish four

369
00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:12,880
Speaker 5: to five ish little over four?

370
00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:16,040
Speaker 3: Okay, seventy and twenty Oh, I see, seventy and twenty got.

371
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:17,520
Speaker 5: Youa football gets seventy percent of the pop.

372
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:21,280
Speaker 3: You're doing fourteen and four? Yeah, n four, Mario, Come

373
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:23,240
Speaker 3: on up here, what are you doing now? Getting up,

374
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 3: get on the mic. I'm gonna go let's see. Uh.

375
00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:29,159
Speaker 5: I'll probably go like eighty percent basketball and then the

376
00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:29,920
Speaker 5: rest of football.

377
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:33,760
Speaker 3: So you're going what like eighty percent, way man, eighty

378
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:37,600
Speaker 3: percent basketball? Yeah, to get all the money. Yeah, so

379
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 3: you're going like fourteen fourteen to four basketball. Football only

380
00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:46,000
Speaker 3: gets four million dollars. I mean you're gonna put like

381
00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:47,440
Speaker 3: a team on the feat.

382
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:49,240
Speaker 5: He wants to unplug Kroger Field forever?

383
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,600
Speaker 3: Are you? Are you serious about these? Serious? So you

384
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:56,520
Speaker 3: want fourteen. So like you're just saying I want the

385
00:18:56,520 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 3: best basketball team on Earth and the football team who cares? Yes, Okay,

386
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,920
Speaker 3: all right, well that's that's an opinion, Shannon. What about yours?

387
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:04,879
Speaker 2: Yep, I'm sticking with my number that I had a

388
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:06,800
Speaker 2: couple of months ago when we had this conversation, I

389
00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,119
Speaker 2: said nine million for the basketball team, nine for the

390
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,439
Speaker 2: football team. If you remember, most people agreed with me.

391
00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:14,359
Speaker 3: So you want to be on you want Norlanders report

392
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 3: to be true? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, all right, I'm going

393
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:23,280
Speaker 3: twelve and a half five, twelve and a half, five

394
00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:25,760
Speaker 3: and a half. I'd like to have enough that we

395
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 3: can get whatever basketball player we want. But I don't

396
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:31,080
Speaker 3: think you need nine for basketball.

397
00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 5: You know, you want to be paying your eighth guy

398
00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 5: two million, pretty neat.

399
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:37,200
Speaker 3: So I'm gonna say, and then football at twelve and

400
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:41,159
Speaker 3: a half, it'll be almost like the Tampa Bay Rays,

401
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:43,960
Speaker 3: Like they can't spend as much as the Dodgers, but

402
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:47,440
Speaker 3: if they're smart, they can make the World Series. Yes,

403
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:50,040
Speaker 3: so I would say that that's me.

404
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:52,680
Speaker 2: I don't think my nine million is right though, because

405
00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:55,399
Speaker 2: if you see how grateful Mark Stoops is, he wouldn't

406
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:58,199
Speaker 2: be grateful if he's only getting nine million, so I

407
00:19:58,200 --> 00:19:59,720
Speaker 2: think obviously my number is wrong.

408
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,119
Speaker 3: That's what you would say, Yes, yes, yeah, all right,

409
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:07,600
Speaker 3: let's go to Adam. Go ahead, Adam. What would you do, Matt?

410
00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:09,920
Speaker 9: I would go pretty close to you. I was thinking

411
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:14,080
Speaker 9: seventy thirty. You know, you're not really doubling everybody's budget

412
00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:17,000
Speaker 9: for basketball, but you still got a lot there for football.

413
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:22,919
Speaker 9: And that had a question of you know, I like

414
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:26,160
Speaker 9: the idea of putting more to basketball than everybody else,

415
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:28,400
Speaker 9: but isn't there a sense of like, now you're the

416
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,360
Speaker 9: New York Yankees. If you spend more than everybody else,

417
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:34,160
Speaker 9: if you spend double more than everybody else, that yes,

418
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 9: you know pressures.

419
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:36,960
Speaker 2: There you better win, better win.

420
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:40,040
Speaker 3: You're exactly right, But that I mean, I would argue,

421
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:42,119
Speaker 3: and I appreciate the call. That's been the expectation of

422
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 3: UK basketball my whole life. The expectation is we put

423
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:47,160
Speaker 3: more into the program, we have more fans that go,

424
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,920
Speaker 3: we care more. At some points in our history we've

425
00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:53,000
Speaker 3: cheated more, like I mean, like there's I think that

426
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:56,040
Speaker 3: expectation has always been on Kentucky. Yes, so.

427
00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 8: You know, and every year they expect to get another

428
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:01,160
Speaker 8: band that's the expectation.

429
00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:04,520
Speaker 3: And while in basketball that will be a very big expectation,

430
00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:08,320
Speaker 3: in football, we can be the plucky underdog. We can

431
00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 3: be the people like Vanderbilt that when we win a

432
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,199
Speaker 3: big game, it's like, well they don't spend as much

433
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:15,440
Speaker 3: as everybody, it's even more impressive that they win.

434
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:18,040
Speaker 5: That's why it's so important people need to know. If

435
00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:20,960
Speaker 5: I know my team won in Starkville with one hand

436
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:22,919
Speaker 5: behind their back because they had half the budget of

437
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:25,320
Speaker 5: the team they're playing, that win, even though it's not

438
00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:27,159
Speaker 5: a Georgia Texas, that's going to mean a lot more.

439
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:30,040
Speaker 3: That's why people should know. Now I know somebody who's

440
00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:32,439
Speaker 3: going to disagree, which is Jerry, So go ahead, Jerry.

441
00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:37,359
Speaker 10: Oh yeah, I'm at fifteen in three okay, And here's

442
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:40,000
Speaker 10: I mean outside of the side like football better better.

443
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:42,280
Speaker 10: We'll set that aside. How are you going to say

444
00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 10: your bills, matt if because what they're talking about doing

445
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:48,760
Speaker 10: is a sure far away. Do you play in the

446
00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:52,119
Speaker 10: SEC again with a mac roster and getting killed and

447
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:53,080
Speaker 10: then people don't.

448
00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:58,120
Speaker 3: Come, and then people don't come and that's a fair fat.

449
00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:03,680
Speaker 10: And you take once again four years. The administrations take

450
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:05,600
Speaker 10: advantage of the fact that EUK football fans has been

451
00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:08,680
Speaker 10: very long until that stadium for Charriable football. I don't

452
00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:11,119
Speaker 10: think that's going to happen again. I think that if

453
00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:13,840
Speaker 10: they do this, how you're gonna pay your bills at

454
00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 10: twenty or thirty thousand people in that stadium.

455
00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:18,560
Speaker 3: That is I appreciate the call, and that is that's

456
00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:22,359
Speaker 3: why you can't do Mario's position, because if people don't come,

457
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:24,359
Speaker 3: football pays for everything else.

458
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:25,960
Speaker 8: Football is your budget.

459
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:30,040
Speaker 3: I mean, there is Jerry. While we've he's frustrated us

460
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:31,560
Speaker 3: at some point in the last couple weeks, he's not

461
00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:33,680
Speaker 3: wrong about no, if you put a team out there

462
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:39,640
Speaker 3: that's uncompetitive, that will hurt your budget overall. So that's

463
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:41,680
Speaker 3: why this is such a balancing act. But it's also

464
00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:44,920
Speaker 3: why I would say, Mitch Barnhart, you have to tell

465
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,840
Speaker 3: people what's happening. You have to know so at least

466
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:52,560
Speaker 3: this debate can be informed with actual numbers. Eight five

467
00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:55,320
Speaker 3: nine two eight h twenty two eighty seven. Let us know.

468
00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:57,480
Speaker 3: We got other stuff to get to as well. But

469
00:22:57,520 --> 00:22:59,240
Speaker 3: I think this is the most important thing for the

470
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:03,240
Speaker 3: future of UK sports is this conversation. TJ. Smith Personal

471
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 3: injury attorney called TJ He'll make them.

472
00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:09,800
Speaker 2: Pay now more. Kentucky Sports Radio present it by Stockton Mortgage.

473
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:11,720
Speaker 2: Here's Matt Jones, Welcome.

474
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:14,240
Speaker 3: Back Tekey Sports Radio. If I'm nine, two, eight, twenty

475
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:18,440
Speaker 3: two eighty seven folks on the text machine, given their numbers,

476
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 3: I think a lot of them kind of come to

477
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 3: where uh mine and Drews are that kind of thirteen

478
00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 3: and five, although there are some Shannon nine and nine.

479
00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:29,040
Speaker 3: Mario doesn't have a lot of people agreeing with his

480
00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:33,080
Speaker 3: that I've seen yet, But one person writes, Matt, why

481
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:36,159
Speaker 3: don't you make your phone font size larger so you

482
00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:38,240
Speaker 3: don't have to squint? I don't like that, because I

483
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:40,360
Speaker 3: don't when you see other people's phone with the big thing,

484
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:42,600
Speaker 3: you can read their text messages, and I don't want

485
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,560
Speaker 3: people reading everything like you know, you see older people

486
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 3: like you've got these big, huge words. It feels like

487
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,120
Speaker 3: you know what's in their lives, right.

488
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:54,280
Speaker 5: And that's just that's taking another leap farther than minting

489
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:57,240
Speaker 5: like glasses. Okay, that's one chapter you've moved on, but

490
00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:01,000
Speaker 5: it's not that far into the book when you're like recently,

491
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:02,560
Speaker 5: I pulled up my phone to look at a menu

492
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:05,359
Speaker 5: at a restaurant. Yeah, I thought, oh no, I've reached

493
00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:08,879
Speaker 5: that age. Yeah, that's still small step. Glasses the next step.

494
00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:10,800
Speaker 5: But if you're doing the large font, you've tapped out.

495
00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:13,840
Speaker 2: You're one step away from breil. At that point, you

496
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:14,359
Speaker 2: can't you.

497
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:16,920
Speaker 3: Can't do that. One person says, Matt. You're not gonna

498
00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:20,639
Speaker 3: stay young forever. Reading glasses are in your future. It

499
00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:22,720
Speaker 3: is tough to like, though, when I went to the

500
00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:24,720
Speaker 3: drug store and bought the what was it, plus one,

501
00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:27,600
Speaker 3: and I look though, but there was like plus one

502
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:30,639
Speaker 3: point five, plus two, plus two point five, and I

503
00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:33,080
Speaker 3: was like, well, I'm not there yet, I'm just at plus.

504
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:36,560
Speaker 5: One scientific way to find out your prescription.

505
00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:38,320
Speaker 3: I didn't realize though, that you could. I mean, I

506
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:40,439
Speaker 3: didn't realize that the drug store, you know, you go

507
00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:42,919
Speaker 3: to the I get contacts and stuff, and you go

508
00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:44,840
Speaker 3: and you get a very specific prescription, and then all

509
00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:48,360
Speaker 3: of a sudden, they're just like, just get a plus one. Yeah,

510
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:48,680
Speaker 3: and so.

511
00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:50,439
Speaker 5: They're out there with the candy like when you're checking out,

512
00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:51,680
Speaker 5: like twenty.

513
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:54,520
Speaker 3: Bucks for plus one two. One person says, Matt, I

514
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:56,880
Speaker 3: saw you at lunch yesterday with my wife and saw

515
00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:59,480
Speaker 3: your glasses. It threw me off a little bit. But

516
00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:01,400
Speaker 3: my one tell you, my wife said you look good

517
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:04,439
Speaker 3: in glasses. That's very nice of your wife. I was

518
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:05,359
Speaker 3: eating the hamburger.

519
00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:07,520
Speaker 2: Did you have did you have a plus one for lunch?

520
00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 2: Or was it just you?

521
00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,760
Speaker 3: I was just thinking my plus one's That's the problem

522
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:14,399
Speaker 3: is right now my only plus one at lunch or

523
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:21,280
Speaker 3: my glasses nine two eight twenty two eighty seven. One

524
00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 3: person writes, Matt, what if we just punted on football

525
00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:26,560
Speaker 3: and got good at every sport but football? I know

526
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:30,000
Speaker 3: that wouldn't work from a budget standpoint, but do you

527
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:31,920
Speaker 3: think our fans would be cool if we were good

528
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:36,560
Speaker 3: at baseball, women's basketball, men's basketball, but just not football?

529
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:41,040
Speaker 5: The football The whole country, the whole country in the

530
00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:44,000
Speaker 5: conference care about football? Sticking out your chest? I mean

531
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:45,920
Speaker 5: I love those sports, but sticking out our chests saying

532
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:49,040
Speaker 5: we're winning all those when everyone else is competing in football.

533
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:50,280
Speaker 5: I don't know if that's where you want to be

534
00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:50,720
Speaker 5: as a fan.

535
00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:53,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. I don't think you can do that.

536
00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:53,919
Speaker 2: Can't.

537
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,560
Speaker 3: Also, I do think whenever they say what these numbers are,

538
00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:58,800
Speaker 3: it'll have an effect on how we get coaches in

539
00:25:58,840 --> 00:25:59,240
Speaker 3: the future.

540
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:00,760
Speaker 8: Oh yes, it does, because.

541
00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:02,040
Speaker 3: You think a coach is gonna come here if he

542
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:04,040
Speaker 3: knows he's always gonna be playing with one hand behind his.

543
00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:05,199
Speaker 8: Back, you know.

544
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:07,840
Speaker 4: So there was a conspiracy theory going around that one

545
00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:09,560
Speaker 4: of the reasons Vince left because he knew this was

546
00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:11,399
Speaker 4: coming and he wasn't the football wasn't gonna get a

547
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:12,440
Speaker 4: lot of money, so he bolted.

548
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:15,760
Speaker 3: Pausible. I don't think that's why he left, but I

549
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:18,280
Speaker 3: think if you were making the argument for why Louisville

550
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:21,119
Speaker 3: could be in a better position going forward. But the

551
00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:23,760
Speaker 3: problem for Louisville and schools in the ACC is they

552
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,440
Speaker 3: better change something if to even have the twenty point

553
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:28,679
Speaker 3: six million dollars to give away, A lot of schools

554
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 3: are not going to have that, right, Kentucky's gonna have it.

555
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 3: There are schools out there that are going to struggle

556
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:37,040
Speaker 3: to have that twenty point six million dollars. I'm not

557
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:38,520
Speaker 3: sure if Louisvill's gonna be one of them. We got

558
00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:41,080
Speaker 3: to see how stuff develops. But if this had started

559
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:44,520
Speaker 3: four years ago, when Kenny Payne and Steve Cragthorpe were here,

560
00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:46,800
Speaker 3: then I think Louisville would have had a hard time

561
00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:49,080
Speaker 3: coming up with that twenty point six million dollars.

562
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:52,160
Speaker 5: The thing about Hires and them looking at where budgets are,

563
00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:55,359
Speaker 5: it's quote match, it is fluid. They can slide it

564
00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:57,159
Speaker 5: a little bit. And I have this thought, if we

565
00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:59,959
Speaker 5: all agree Pope will be here longer than stoops, whatever's

566
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,200
Speaker 5: groups of time's left, will there be a time where,

567
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:05,040
Speaker 5: like we have this big fish Pope, we gotta just

568
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:06,760
Speaker 5: slide a little more to football to get it done.

569
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:08,399
Speaker 5: And maybe Pope will just have to take one for

570
00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:10,320
Speaker 5: the team there and help out on making a big

571
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:10,800
Speaker 5: higher well.

572
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 3: And the other part of Norlander's article was we don't

573
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:16,719
Speaker 3: know how much people are gonna cheat, right, I mean

574
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:19,760
Speaker 3: a lot of Norlander was like, there's still this belief

575
00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:22,320
Speaker 3: that the collectives are still gonna do with the collectives do.

576
00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 3: One of the things we've seen is that our collective

577
00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:31,760
Speaker 3: is crushing on the basketball side, which I'll say this

578
00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:36,600
Speaker 3: about John, about Mark Pope, John Calperry. Everybody can have

579
00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:40,640
Speaker 3: their beliefs on who has the more exciting style play,

580
00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 3: who gets the players you want, who will have the

581
00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:48,320
Speaker 3: most success. Here's a fact. It's indisputable. You cannot argue

582
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:51,680
Speaker 3: with it. It's a fact, if we had still been

583
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:55,119
Speaker 3: rolling with Caliperry in this new era, we'd be in

584
00:27:55,160 --> 00:28:00,960
Speaker 3: trouble because the collectives with Cal Perry were raising no money, none,

585
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:04,320
Speaker 3: people were out on it. And if we were trying

586
00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:07,720
Speaker 3: to go into this new era with the excitement we

587
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:11,159
Speaker 3: had with Cal, we'd have no shot. Now, could we

588
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:16,040
Speaker 3: still get high school guys? Hopefully? But remember they launched

589
00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:19,200
Speaker 3: the Law Familiar Collective and it raised like thirty one dollars.

590
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:19,919
Speaker 3: It's still up.

591
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,200
Speaker 5: It's pretty embarrassing. Just please, if you're out there listening,

592
00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:23,639
Speaker 5: to delete the site. It's hard to look at it.

593
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:27,399
Speaker 3: It's got the little meter like ours a million and

594
00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:29,119
Speaker 3: we have one thousand hill meters.

595
00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:29,560
Speaker 8: Wow.

596
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:33,960
Speaker 3: So that's important, I think, to realize how bad it

597
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:36,199
Speaker 3: could have been in the other system.

598
00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 7: Steve, go ahead, Steve, Hey, you know, man, I don't

599
00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:43,240
Speaker 7: know if it would help the Tucky football. They gave

600
00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:48,440
Speaker 7: him every dime of twenty million dollars. I think Kentucky

601
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:51,960
Speaker 7: football is just kind of tread and water. They put

602
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:54,440
Speaker 7: a lot of money into the facilities, they're paying the

603
00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:57,400
Speaker 7: coach big money, you know I and all that stuff,

604
00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:01,440
Speaker 7: and they're just really not really not competitive. And let's

605
00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:04,360
Speaker 7: see say, and I don't know what's gonna stop it.

606
00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:07,080
Speaker 3: Well, I don't know if that's fair. I mean, they

607
00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:10,560
Speaker 3: weren't particularly competitive last year, although they did win at

608
00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:13,200
Speaker 3: Ole Miss. But I mean we've had a number of

609
00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:16,040
Speaker 3: years where we were as competitive as we've been in

610
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:19,160
Speaker 3: my lifetime. I mean, if you mean competitive, like winning

611
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:22,560
Speaker 3: the league, I'm not sure that's ever gonna happen. But

612
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:26,240
Speaker 3: I think three years yeah, yeah, but I mean.

613
00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:30,880
Speaker 5: Competitive, that's I don't think that's true, though, George on

614
00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:32,160
Speaker 5: the Roads, you.

615
00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:35,080
Speaker 3: Say they're not. I mean we won ten games like

616
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:36,040
Speaker 3: four years ago.

617
00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:39,680
Speaker 7: I love Kentucky, but that's not fair.

618
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:42,960
Speaker 3: Though to say not competitive. If you're taking if competitive

619
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:46,840
Speaker 3: is win the national championship, then fine. But ten games

620
00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:51,600
Speaker 3: at Kentucky is historically a very rare occurrence.

621
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:56,320
Speaker 7: I understand. And that's the reason why Stupents is still

622
00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:59,640
Speaker 7: there because he got ten wins twice. I mean, man,

623
00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:04,720
Speaker 7: he's got it made. But you know Kentucky football, Kentucky

624
00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 7: is a basketball school and a football league, and they're

625
00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:13,480
Speaker 7: just basically tread and water. You've got Oklahoma in, You've

626
00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:18,440
Speaker 7: got Texas in. Kentucky is just vis a vis those

627
00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:22,480
Speaker 7: teams they're not. They're not getting better, but the conference is.

628
00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:25,760
Speaker 3: Well Oklahoma stunk last year and I appreciate the call,

629
00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:28,760
Speaker 3: but I mean, I'm not There's a difference between have

630
00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:32,040
Speaker 3: we been better in the last two years and can

631
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:36,320
Speaker 3: we ever be good? Those are different conversations. We have

632
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:38,680
Speaker 3: not been better in the last two years. Can we

633
00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:42,040
Speaker 3: ever be good? Yeah, because we've been good before. Now

634
00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:45,000
Speaker 3: can we ever win a title? My argument would be no,

635
00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:49,280
Speaker 3: But that is what it is. I think part of

636
00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:51,959
Speaker 3: that is, you know, it's not as important now as

637
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:55,000
Speaker 3: it once was, but we don't produce the players other

638
00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:58,200
Speaker 3: places do. We are playing a road game in every

639
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:01,880
Speaker 3: recruit right, playing a road game in every recruitment. It's

640
00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 3: gotten better in the last few years. More players are

641
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:06,240
Speaker 3: coming from here than used to. But it's still, I mean,

642
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,840
Speaker 3: our best years. We still have a third of the

643
00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:11,320
Speaker 3: players in these other SEC states.

644
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 4: Up until the last two years, Stoops run has been

645
00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:16,880
Speaker 4: some of the best we've ever had in UK football here. Ever,

646
00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:20,360
Speaker 4: Bear Bryant and Mark Stoops that they're runs last two

647
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:23,080
Speaker 4: years have been a little disappointing. Okay, get back on

648
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:24,920
Speaker 4: the horse, get to get it to get the job done.

649
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:27,640
Speaker 8: I think that's gonna happen. I'm leaning that way.

650
00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:28,720
Speaker 3: You're grateful.

651
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:32,400
Speaker 8: We need to listen, we need twelve million dollars.

652
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:34,440
Speaker 3: Well, twelve million dollars that is gonna be less than everybody.

653
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:37,000
Speaker 8: We still need. You know, that's an we're three less.

654
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:38,680
Speaker 8: That's just a couple of players we can get by

655
00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:38,960
Speaker 8: with out.

656
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:41,600
Speaker 2: You know, we'll spend it wisely. It's about how you

657
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:42,240
Speaker 2: spend that twelve mill.

658
00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:43,880
Speaker 8: Yeah, we'll develop a couple three star guy.

659
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:45,720
Speaker 3: That's what the Reds people have been saying for years.

660
00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:51,000
Speaker 11: Mike, go ahead, Mike, Yeah, I'm kind of more in

661
00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:53,760
Speaker 11: a line with Mario, but I know that that's not realistic.

662
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:57,680
Speaker 11: So I would say, like twelve you just say it

663
00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:01,880
Speaker 11: like I or pretty much just age. So Kentucky's probably

664
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,280
Speaker 11: not gonna win a football championship if you get Mark

665
00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:08,480
Speaker 11: Stoops one hundred billion dollars in our lifetime. So just

666
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:10,800
Speaker 11: you know, we're definitely we got a chance to win

667
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:14,280
Speaker 11: a basketball championship this year, So we definitely need to

668
00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:17,400
Speaker 11: give football a semi fire shape. But it doesn't matter

669
00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:20,480
Speaker 11: what you give Stoops. I mean, he gets nine million

670
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:22,920
Speaker 11: now a year for himself and that you know, I

671
00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:25,960
Speaker 11: just he's going to brow a game in the end

672
00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:27,960
Speaker 11: with four o'clock management. Whatever.

673
00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:31,800
Speaker 3: Well, that's you know, I appreciate call. Let me ask

674
00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:34,320
Speaker 3: you this. Let's say you got Nick Saban in his

675
00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:40,240
Speaker 3: private Kentucky and you gave him fifteen million dollars and

676
00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:43,920
Speaker 3: all the other schools have fifteen million dollars too. Could

677
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:45,480
Speaker 3: he make a playoff at Kentucky?

678
00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:48,080
Speaker 8: Yeah, I'm in the boat.

679
00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:52,320
Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, something about him, Yes, he would figure out

680
00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:53,160
Speaker 4: a way to get it done.

681
00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:54,560
Speaker 8: He's the elite of the elite.

682
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:55,280
Speaker 3: You think he could.

683
00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:58,280
Speaker 5: Yeah, because recruits would just want to be there because

684
00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:00,600
Speaker 5: of him, because all.

685
00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:03,360
Speaker 3: You think Belichick should win.

686
00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:06,240
Speaker 5: Do people want to play for him as much?

687
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:10,000
Speaker 3: Especially in all seriousness Belichick, most people would say greatest

688
00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:12,160
Speaker 3: or one of the two or three greatest NFL coaches ever.

689
00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:12,959
Speaker 5: But in the NFL.

690
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:18,240
Speaker 3: But if they're seven and five at North Carolina, then

691
00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:20,680
Speaker 3: why isn't Saban seven and five at Kentucky.

692
00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:23,320
Speaker 5: Well, for me, if I'm a recruit, I'm seeing Saban

693
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:26,400
Speaker 5: has made so many NFL players. That's why he's more attractive.

694
00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:28,960
Speaker 5: I see him as the path where Belichick.

695
00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:31,720
Speaker 3: I will say that. All right, So let me make

696
00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:34,320
Speaker 3: the case even though I don't believe this case totally.

697
00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:36,880
Speaker 3: Let me make the case for football, all right, It

698
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:39,760
Speaker 3: used to be the case when you weren't paying players

699
00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:44,000
Speaker 3: that Kentucky had no shot. Okay, we didn't have enough

700
00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:47,720
Speaker 3: recruits in the state, We had no tradition our fans.

701
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:50,800
Speaker 3: This was more basketball than football. Kentucky had no shot.

702
00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:55,760
Speaker 3: The theory behind a capped salary cap of fifteen million

703
00:33:55,800 --> 00:34:00,240
Speaker 3: dollars would be now that stuff is gone, and now

704
00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:02,360
Speaker 3: it's just who can balance the budget better. Now it's

705
00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:05,360
Speaker 3: the NFL, where you can be in any market. It

706
00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:08,040
Speaker 3: can be Kansas City and Buffalo playing in the AFC

707
00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:13,000
Speaker 3: Championship while the Jets and LA sit at home. That's

708
00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:18,080
Speaker 3: the argument. And so I don't necessarily know that that's true,

709
00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:20,840
Speaker 3: but that's the argument. So if you got the right coach,

710
00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:25,160
Speaker 3: he's got the same salary cap everybody else does, then

711
00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:28,520
Speaker 3: he's got a chance to do I don't know if

712
00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:31,520
Speaker 3: I believe that, but that I think there is an

713
00:34:31,600 --> 00:34:34,399
Speaker 3: argument that Kentucky would have a better shot at doing

714
00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:37,000
Speaker 3: it in this world than they could have in the

715
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:39,840
Speaker 3: previous world. Does that make sense? Yes?

716
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:43,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, If you lose coach Stoops is gonna be harder

717
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:45,560
Speaker 4: to attract a top level coach knowing that you're coming

718
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:47,880
Speaker 4: in your budget is not as much as the other schools.

719
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:50,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, you don't have to change the budget to make

720
00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 5: it higher. If whatever it is right now, if it's

721
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:53,480
Speaker 5: so basketball heavy.

722

770
00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:56,480
Speaker 3: Did you offer to pay for it? Or did you

771
00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:57,399

Speaker 6: Hey, Matt, I just wanted to talk about the riff share.

859
00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:15,520
Speaker 6: I think that I think Kentucky's kind of magic number

860
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:19,880
Speaker 6: is thirteen and a half. Four and a half.

861
00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:22,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's exactly where I was.

862
00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:25,560
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think that that is that is kind of

863
00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:27,399
Speaker 6: where we need to be. Gives us a slight edge

864
00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:32,880
Speaker 6: for basketball, while you know, remaining competitive with recruiting in

865
00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:38,000
Speaker 6: the SEC for football. I think when it comes to money,

866
00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:40,399
Speaker 6: we have it in our minds like money is going

867
00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:44,720
Speaker 6: to equal success, and that's just not always the case.

868
00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:52,319
Speaker 6: I'm a Pacers fan, and they are not one of

869
00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:58,319
Speaker 6: those teams that go into the luxury tax for they intentionally.

870
00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:02,239
Speaker 3: But then there's baseball and not to cut you off,

871
00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:03,759
Speaker 3: we're about to go to break, but I appreciate it.

872
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:08,400
Speaker 3: Then there's baseball where money doesn't guarantee success, but not

873
00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:12,000
Speaker 3: spending money guarantees you won't have success. So and they

874
00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:16,040
Speaker 3: just got to the College World Series, the Indiana Pacers.

875
00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:18,880
Speaker 8: No UK baseball team. Don't you want to give some

876
00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:19,920
Speaker 8: money to you? Ka baseball.

877
00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:24,280
Speaker 3: We weren't talking to We're talking about Major League baseball.
