1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:04,080
Speaker 1: Welcome into the local Toyota Dealers KSR postgame show. I

2
00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:07,800
Speaker 1: am Drew Franklin, filling in for Matt Jones, who, if

3
00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:10,920
Speaker 1: you heard KSR this morning, does not have a voice.

4
00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:13,240
Speaker 1: He tried to get through two hours, actually made it

5
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:15,920
Speaker 1: through two hours of our morning show, but had to

6
00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:18,040
Speaker 1: hang it up before the pregame show and postgame show.

7
00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:19,759
Speaker 1: But that's all right. I'm happy to fill in. And

8
00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:23,480
Speaker 1: as always, Billy R Sports is here producing this show.

9
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:25,960
Speaker 1: Billy who lives in this studio.

10
00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:26,120
Speaker 2: Like a troll.

11
00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:28,000
Speaker 1: He's just here at all times. I think he sleeps

12
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 1: under this table. You've been here all day, Billy. It's

13
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:32,480
Speaker 1: good to see you tonight. After Kentucky gets a win,

14
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:35,040
Speaker 1: snaps out of the little bit of a losing skid,

15
00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:40,000
Speaker 1: winning seventy two sixty three in Columbia. Kentucky went in

16
00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:42,200
Speaker 1: as a about a six and a half point favorite,

17
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:45,280
Speaker 1: expectations to beat South Carolina, one of the worst teams

18
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 1: in the conference. They had just come off a seven

19
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:50,920
Speaker 1: game losing streak before stealing a win against Mississippi State

20
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 1: last Saturday. You know, if we really really really wanted

21
00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 1: to be picky, we wish Kentucky could have gone down

22
00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:58,240
Speaker 1: there and blown him out. Just been a fun night

23
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:00,440
Speaker 1: from start to finish. But that was not the case.

24
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 1: South Carolina started out kind of hot, hit four three

25
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 1: pointers early. It looks kind of like the Georgia and

26
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:08,160
Speaker 1: Florida game, where you have a team not known for

27
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:10,560
Speaker 1: shooting three as well, giving them a little too much

28
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:13,160
Speaker 1: cushion making them pay. They had four of eight as

29
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 1: Kentucky struggled from the field. Kentucky went one of seven

30
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:19,399
Speaker 1: from three early on. South Carolina led twelve to five,

31
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 1: led around fifteen thirteen, led for about half of the

32
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 1: first half, and then Kentucky went on a big ten

33
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 1: oh run, highlighted by Denzel Aberdeen hitting back to back

34
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:32,920
Speaker 1: three pointers, forcing South Carolina to call a tom out.

35
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:35,320
Speaker 1: It was mostly cats from there. They'd get up seven.

36
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:37,679
Speaker 1: South Carolina would crawl back, a little bit of a

37
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:40,479
Speaker 1: back and forth, but never truly felt threatened, and they

38
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 1: pulled away in the end, pulled away in the end

39
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 1: to win. Big Aberdeen with nineteen points, he's your star

40
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:48,559
Speaker 1: of the game. Not only did he hit those two threes,

41
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 1: he had four in the game, but they all seem

42
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 1: tomly had a lot of big buckets. Otega Oway actually

43
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 1: a quiet game. A thirty game streak of double digit

44
00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:00,440
Speaker 1: scoring came to an end tonight Otaga with eight points

45
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 1: on three of thirteen shooting. Aberdeen was helped out and

46
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,720
Speaker 1: scoring by Modia Batte off the bench with twelve big

47
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 1: second half on him. We'll be bragging on mod with Aberdeen.

48
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,239
Speaker 1: Colin Chandler got up to ten with a late three

49
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 1: that was important, and my guy Yellovich, who I predicted

50
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 1: as the MVP with eleven. Kind of a mixed bag

51
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 1: from Yellovich, some highs and lows, but Billy r Sports.

52
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:24,120
Speaker 1: That was my long winded quick you know, just what

53
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,120
Speaker 1: do they call it? Like the view from however many feet?

54
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:28,920
Speaker 1: That was my quick birth analysis. How do you feel

55
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:31,360
Speaker 1: about just getting out of that three game losing funk

56
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:32,799
Speaker 1: and getting a win. I don't care if it was

57
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:34,119
Speaker 1: against a team that's not very good.

58
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:35,920
Speaker 2: Well, it's good to see you. Thanks for coming in

59
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:37,919
Speaker 2: studio and visiting my troll house here.

60
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:39,959
Speaker 1: I met that in a polite, loving way.

61
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,920
Speaker 2: I'm excited for an evening with Drew Franklin, even though

62
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 2: some might get that on Thursday night as well in Madisonville.

63
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 2: More on that later, But yeah, man, they had to win.

64
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 2: It was must win. They snapped the three game losing streak.

65
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 2: I'm gonna try to be positive on this postgame show, Drew,

66
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 2: because there was a chance this would have been an

67
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,800
Speaker 2: all time postgame show if they would have lost that

68
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:03,119
Speaker 2: game to a bad South Carolina team. But like I said,

69
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:05,120
Speaker 2: I'm gonna try to be positive. This team finds a

70
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:08,280
Speaker 2: way to win. With otega Oway having a rough night,

71
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:12,079
Speaker 2: Denzel Aberdeen once again stepping up and being the player

72
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 2: that the nil dollars are paying for. With that guy,

73
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,640
Speaker 2: and then Mode you mentioned him, I mean his energy

74
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 2: and relentlessness in the second half I think is the

75
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:24,799
Speaker 2: reason why Kentucky won that game. I also let out

76
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 2: a loud bang when Colin Chandler hit that three. If

77
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 2: you know anything about me, he did it again. You

78
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 2: know I'm gonna be yelling out a bang even if

79
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:35,160
Speaker 2: we're next to the president of ESPN. But it was

80
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 2: just kind of a sigh of relief, honestly that they

81
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 2: won that game and probably signs of maybe this team's

82
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 2: ceiling being a little bit lower than we think.

83
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was a game. Like I said, if we

84
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 1: wanted to get picky, we could have asked for you know,

85
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 1: go out and killed them, but really just get out

86
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:51,760
Speaker 1: of there with a win. We just came off Kentucky's

87
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:55,080
Speaker 1: first three game losing skid in five years. The bubble

88
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 1: talk was getting very real. It never felt real until today.

89
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:00,360
Speaker 1: And if you had lost this game, you were on

90
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 1: the bubble and people that had that were not making

91
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,320
Speaker 1: the tournament conversation. That conversation was there to be had

92
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:07,839
Speaker 1: with three games left, but I think this game puts

93
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 1: an end to that. Honestly, you could lose the next three,

94
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 1: those are all Quad one opponents. I don't think it'll

95
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 1: hurt your seed line too much. If anything, you can

96
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,240
Speaker 1: win the next three or two of them whatever and

97
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:21,520
Speaker 1: maybe help out. But today was just a big ex hell.

98
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 1: Did get out of the gutter and get a win

99
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 1: in the SECI.

100
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 2: I mean it felt real though, Drew. I mean it

101
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 2: was a half empty arena. South Carolina, Who's three hundred

102
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 2: and thirty first and three point percentage hits four threes

103
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 2: and four minutes and you're going, what is going on?

104
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 2: Like here we are again not able to chase somebody

105
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,360
Speaker 2: off the three point line, but they stick with it.

106
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,280
Speaker 2: I mean, somehow win this game. You mentioned the guy Yelovich.

107
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 2: I think at times he passed up some open shots,

108
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 2: but did what he needed to do to contribute to

109
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 2: the team.

110
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 1: You know, he didn't pass up on three pointers. As

111
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 1: someone who was rooting for him, My man took a

112
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,159
Speaker 1: lot of threes tonight, one of six. Well, he was open,

113
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:57,279
Speaker 1: and he was open.

114
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 2: He was open. He could have shot maybe double that

115
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:01,840
Speaker 2: amount tonight. He was so open, but he only hit

116
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,920
Speaker 2: one of them. I mean, what's seven of twenty five

117
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 2: from three? So they were chucking it up a lot tonight.

118
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, Yellovich, Well, really the big storyline is he and

119
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,720
Speaker 1: Diabate is more so Yellovich early Diabata in the second half,

120
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:16,839
Speaker 1: but you needed to get something out of that four spot.

121
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,120
Speaker 1: We kept talking about how you know, you've wasted career

122
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 1: games with oh Way lately and that backcourt has been

123
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:24,160
Speaker 1: so good and you need help with them. The combination

124
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 1: of Yellovich and Diabate tonight, what they did stepping up

125
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 1: beside Marino, who was huge rebounding he had eight and eleven.

126
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 1: That was a big difference maker the front court. As

127
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,159
Speaker 1: much as this backcourt has been the team's identity lately,

128
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 1: the front court did it tonight when they end up

129
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:41,840
Speaker 1: winning the rebounding battle eight good lord yea eighteen offensive rebounds.

130
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 1: South Carolina, not known as a good rebounding team, wasn't

131
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:46,599
Speaker 1: really a threat that they could win that, but forty

132
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 1: eight to twenty eight is something. As I said, moreno

133
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 1: with eleven leading the way Garrison, I'm confused at how

134
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 1: I want to react to Brandon Garrison. He had some moments,

135
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 1: There was some flashy passes, he had a couple of assists,

136
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:01,840
Speaker 1: there was miss dunk. There are a couple of times

137
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,279
Speaker 1: where I think he got caught in the quicksand, but

138
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 1: overall a slight improvement from my frustrations at the end

139
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:09,680
Speaker 1: of the Auburn game. I'm still I still don know

140
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 1: how to react to the Brandon Garrison experience. But in

141
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:13,880
Speaker 1: the first half he was a wild ride. But he

142
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,960
Speaker 1: did provide some off the bench, a little bit effort.

143
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,040
Speaker 1: He was a good rebounder. Tonight he had seven. It's

144
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,440
Speaker 1: a backup Marinos, so I'm not gonna I'm not gonna

145
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,400
Speaker 1: put down Garrison, even though were some moments, it was

146
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 1: just another another wild ride with him.

147
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 2: He had an offensive rebound and a put back that

148
00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 2: was pretty big. And Modia Batte did around the same time.

149
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 2: He only played thirteen minutes beg So I mean that's

150
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:36,320
Speaker 2: that's about right with the amount of time he should

151
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 2: be playing, don't you think?

152
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 3: Just right?

153
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:39,479
Speaker 1: And you know he's not the only one with a

154
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:42,560
Speaker 1: miss dunk. Diabate tried to cram on someone's face and

155
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 1: got blocked and then it hit him and went out

156
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:46,360
Speaker 1: of bounds. That was a tough look when everything was

157
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,680
Speaker 1: going for him. Sure, oh, Way needs two points to

158
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,880
Speaker 1: get to double digits, has the breakaway and just clanks

159
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:54,599
Speaker 1: it on the front of the rim on a on

160
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,360
Speaker 1: a one handed dunk there, So that's it. Oh for

161
00:06:57,520 --> 00:06:59,480
Speaker 1: three by my account on the dunk, so not just

162
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:01,760
Speaker 1: not garrison there that couldn't finish to night at the rim.

163
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,040
Speaker 2: Oh, it was really struggling tonight. What do you do

164
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:05,920
Speaker 2: you think it was just the emphasis was on him

165
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,359
Speaker 2: double teams every time he got the ball or was

166
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,560
Speaker 2: he pressing tonight? Why do you think he struggled so much?

167
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,440
Speaker 1: Scout was on him. I mean he had to come

168
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: down a little bit. I mean three of thirteen for

169
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,800
Speaker 1: eighteen or for eight points is a bad night overall.

170
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:21,120
Speaker 1: But we just what was it like ten straight twenty

171
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 1: point games. At some point he was allowed to cool

172
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 1: off a little bit, and you know it didn't hurt him.

173
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 1: Still got the win, and he had five assists, which

174
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:30,880
Speaker 1: is big. He stepped up another or five stills stepped

175
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:31,440
Speaker 1: up another race.

176
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:33,320
Speaker 2: And that goes back to my first point is that

177
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 2: this was big for this team to win without a

178
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 2: way scoring twenty in the game. Now, Chandler hit the

179
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:40,120
Speaker 2: first three of the game and then it didn't feel

180
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 2: like he hit another shot until the very end. He

181
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 2: did end up with ten, I think, so he chipped

182
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,640
Speaker 2: in as well. But I mean, I think Denzel Aberdeen

183
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 2: deserves the praise of Big Blue Nation, not only this game,

184
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:54,000
Speaker 2: but these last few games, even the one where he

185
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 2: was sick and still played well in that last game

186
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 2: versus Auburn, he is he has definitely changed into a

187
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 2: very different player than he was in the first half

188
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:02,280
Speaker 2: of the season.

189
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, five assists, no turnovers. That's his six game with

190
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:09,520
Speaker 1: three or more threes. Whoever called him denzil Airbaldeine at

191
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:11,840
Speaker 1: the earlier in the season, they they should be ashamed

192
00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 1: of themselves, because yes, he had a few airballs early on,

193
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:18,040
Speaker 1: and he was not knocking down shots. But since SEC play,

194
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 1: I mean, always been outstanding, but Aberdeen's been right next

195
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 1: to him, putting this team on his back. And another

196
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 1: big game tonight from him. Why are you laughing? Is

197
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:26,600
Speaker 1: that what you I didn't say I called him that,

198
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,560
Speaker 1: People called him that earlier on Okay, you remember he

199
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:31,480
Speaker 1: did air ball a lot earlier on the season. That's

200
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 1: not me making this up. I'm saying it as a compliment.

201
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:35,800
Speaker 1: He's really got it going, especially from three, which has

202
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:37,679
Speaker 1: been a big part of the team turned around a

203
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 1: little bit les years ago.

204
00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, and think I mean he's adjusting to life without

205
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 2: Jalen Lowe as well, right, I mean that was maybe

206
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:45,760
Speaker 2: part of the transition that maybe took a little bit

207
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:47,760
Speaker 2: longer than people thought with him. So it's good to

208
00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 2: see him play well. And man, you needed that, like

209
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:54,880
Speaker 2: just for the good vibes going into Saturday and before

210
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 2: the SEC tournament. Now you feel that you're squarely in

211
00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:01,080
Speaker 2: the NCAA tournament, like you said, Drew, and you can

212
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,440
Speaker 2: just start to build some momentum that you have left

213
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:04,040
Speaker 2: for this season.

214
00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:07,320
Speaker 1: I guess still got to get off that Wednesday's conversation

215
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:10,880
Speaker 1: in this that's still like Wednesday Missouri Tennessee. They're playing

216
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 1: right now. This is kind of this game is kind

217
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:15,560
Speaker 1: of how you feel about the Cats. If you don't

218
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:17,480
Speaker 1: think Kentucky's gonna have much of a run and make

219
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 1: a run at Friday, then you probably want Tennessee to

220
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:23,960
Speaker 1: win this and just help you knock Missouri down. If

221
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 1: you're a big dreamer, maybe you want Tennessee to take

222
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:28,240
Speaker 1: a loss because you have that tie breaker. But I

223
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:30,240
Speaker 1: would rather just go ahead and knock Missouri on down

224
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 1: a little bit because they have the tie breaker over Kentucky.

225
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,079
Speaker 1: Right now, thirty five thirty four release.

226
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,840
Speaker 2: Oklahoma was beating Auburn by nine or so at halftime,

227
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 2: so an interesting result there.

228
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,199
Speaker 1: And I noticed when I walked in, you have the

229
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,719
Speaker 1: State at Union. I did watching it on mute. Do

230
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:45,600
Speaker 1: you learn a lot on mute?

231
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:47,720
Speaker 2: You're just like I wanted to tell you how funny

232
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,320
Speaker 2: it was watching the State of the Union on mute,

233
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:54,199
Speaker 2: because like just the constantly standing up and clapping and

234
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:56,560
Speaker 2: sit it down, standing up and sitting down, and then

235
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 2: the people behind Trump, how like lovingly gazing that they

236
00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:02,920
Speaker 2: are towards Trump during it. I thought he was objectively funny.

237
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:04,440
Speaker 2: With the sound off Drew, I don't know.

238
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:06,679
Speaker 1: Well, I'm glad you switched it to basketball for me.

239
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:07,120
Speaker 1: I had to.

240
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I figured you wouldn't want to.

241
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:10,360
Speaker 1: I mean, I can give updates from the State of

242
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,280
Speaker 1: the Union that I don't know what's being stated right now,

243
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:14,960
Speaker 1: But if you wanted to turn it on, I could

244
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:16,840
Speaker 1: provide visuals give my thoughts on that.

245
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,720
Speaker 2: Half the room rising up and clapping, the other half

246
00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 2: just scowling like it's it's just bizarre to watch it

247
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:26,480
Speaker 2: with the sound off. But we have shifted to Tennessee, Missouri,

248
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 2: and maybe Peter Burns will give us another KSR reference.

249
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:31,760
Speaker 1: Before Okay, yeah, good point. I have that in my notes,

250
00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 1: but let's go and bring it up now. Peter Burns

251
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,320
Speaker 1: does does Matt owen money or does he owe Matt money?

252
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:38,800
Speaker 1: And he's trying to make up with shout out. There

253
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 1: was three Matt Jones shout outs tonight.

254
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:45,439
Speaker 2: Three I knew the one which was started before the game.

255
00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 1: Okay, it said something about I guess this includes you.

256
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:50,559
Speaker 1: It said Matt Jones and the guys at Kentucky Sports

257
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:56,199
Speaker 1: Radio will be tweeting about this. That was pregame, then midgame.

258
00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:57,760
Speaker 1: What was the exact line.

259
00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 2: Hotter than Matt Jones watching The State of the Union

260
00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 2: later tonight.

261
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 1: Was that what it was, Peter, unbelievable lion there. I

262
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:06,560
Speaker 1: can't believe you threw that one out there.

263
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 2: Well done.

264
00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:09,439
Speaker 1: And then I didn't hear this one because I was

265
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,320
Speaker 1: on my way here to talk to you. But Mario

266
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:14,520
Speaker 1: textually the group that there was a third. Peter Burns

267
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:16,720
Speaker 1: mentioned after the game that I did not hear, but

268
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 1: the count is up to three.

269
00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:18,360
Speaker 4: Wow.

270
00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:20,200
Speaker 2: Well, I mean I thought it was just Tom Hart

271
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:20,560
Speaker 2: doing this.

272
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:24,040

Speaker 1: Still can't believe that happened.

298
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:26,600
Speaker 2: No, it's like a fever dream, isn't it.

299
00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm still in that dream. You want to go back,

00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 1: But first a quick shout out. I got a text.

304
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:43,319
Speaker 1: My friend is in the Atlanta airport. If anyone knows

305
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,360
Speaker 1: I knew a lot of people stuck in Mexico at

306
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,960
Speaker 1: a resort in Porto Verira. Is that he's saying I

307
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,719
Speaker 1: was supposed to be there. I know right now. They

308
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,200
Speaker 1: made it to the Atlanta airport. So shout out to

309
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:57,000
Speaker 1: my friends, shout out of the country. Got my guy

310
00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:59,079
Speaker 1: Jeoffrey married, even though there's not a vendor. I think

311
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:01,200
Speaker 1: they had to take photo with phones and make their

312
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,000
Speaker 1: own drinks and all that, but they got him married.

313
00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 1: But the point is is at the Atlanta airport and

314
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:07,960
Speaker 1: he texted me that he's in the bathroom and someone

315
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,800
Speaker 1: in the stall. My voice was coming from the stall.

316
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:15,439
Speaker 1: Your voice, yes outside Gate D thirty five. So whoever

317
00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 1: is there in Atlanta Airport listening to KSR without headphones

318
00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 1: in while in the bathroom, shout out to you. I

319
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:24,320
Speaker 1: appreciate it. Helpe all the people that went in there

320
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:25,320
Speaker 1: got to hear a little bit of Kasser.

321
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 2: Well, you know, when my headphones go dead and I

322
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 2: still have to use the stall, it doesn't mean I'm

323
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:32,280
Speaker 2: gonna stop my episode, Drew, So just play it with

324
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:33,280
Speaker 2: the speaker.

325
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,600
Speaker 1: Gate D thirty five. That's you, or if there's multiple

326
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:38,079
Speaker 1: people at the airport, could be you. Two. I'm glad they're

327
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,160
Speaker 1: home too. That's also very important. That was a scary situation.

328
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:42,679
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, absolutely, but shout out to everybody involved. Did

329
00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:44,240
Speaker 2: you say Jeoffrey Joffreed?

330
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 1: Yes, he got.

331
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 2: Married unfortunate name with the Game of Throne stuff at all.

332
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, it probably didn't help, No, but uh yeah, eventful,

333
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:53,520
Speaker 1: eventful weekend for them. I'm glad they're home. Let's get

334
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:54,040
Speaker 1: some calls.

335
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 2: Let's start with Randall, Randall.

336
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:56,360
Speaker 1: What's up?

337
00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:02,320
Speaker 6: How bad Drew? I got the announcers comment there, but

338
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:06,800
Speaker 6: uh uh, you know, Matt Jones hotter than Matt Jones

339
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:09,319
Speaker 6: watching the State of Union. I thought that was hilarious.

340
00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:13,560
Speaker 6: But uh uh yeah, Mark Pope man, I really would

341
00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:17,479
Speaker 6: I give him a pass on, you know, like recruiting

342
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:21,680
Speaker 6: these guys out of high school, because I mean, if

343
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 6: he's gonna go get a high school player and he's

344
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:27,440
Speaker 6: going after that number one guy, you know, spend the

345
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:30,240
Speaker 6: money on him, but go to the portal. I think

346
00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:33,280
Speaker 6: that's the smart decision on his part, because you know,

347
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:38,160
Speaker 6: it's to have a senior source team, you know, a

348
00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:41,120
Speaker 6: team and like build around our guys like Jasper Morano

349
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:45,680
Speaker 6: and Chandler, guys like that. Put the money on those guys.

350
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 6: I think we could really have some success next year

351
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 6: and probably will probably make a run this year.

352
00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 1: I got faith that they do all right, Love that optimism.

353
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,880
Speaker 1: Appreciate the call. Uh. They have been going after the

354
00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:01,360
Speaker 1: number one player in the number two for six and

355
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:02,080
Speaker 1: sevens and.

356
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 2: How many do they have?

357
00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:03,080
Speaker 5: Many?

358
00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:03,720
Speaker 2: Have they gotten?

359
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:07,840
Speaker 1: Zero? Not good? There's no we can't fix that up.

360
00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:10,040
Speaker 1: That is what it is. Maybe Stokes will surprise us.

361
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:13,960
Speaker 1: Probably not gonna happen. The high school recruiting class looking

362
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:16,080
Speaker 1: like it will be zero, that's an excusable can't happen.

363
00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:18,560
Speaker 1: But the portal, though we don't know what'll be in there.

364
00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 1: We know some guys likely in there, some guys playing

365
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 1: well at other schools, some names we hope will go in.

366
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:26,160
Speaker 1: But whoever it is, if there is one of these

367
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:30,120
Speaker 1: marquee players, don't don't get out bid, don't don't get

368
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 1: too emotional. You have to go get the best of

369
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:32,640
Speaker 1: the best.

370
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:35,000
Speaker 2: If they're out there to get it's okay. If a

371
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 2: player's motivation is money and not the name on the

372
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,080
Speaker 2: front of the shirt. I know how much we want

373
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,040
Speaker 2: for that to happen, Drew, but I don't know if

374
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 2: that's realistic in the transfer portal era and unfortunately the

375
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:49,000
Speaker 2: guys you've captain Mark Pope's system this year Colin Chandler,

376
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 2: Jasper Johnson, what's the other one I'm thinking of? Trent Noah.

377
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:56,880
Speaker 2: Two of the three are unplayable right now? Well not Jasper.

378
00:15:57,600 --> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 2: Garrison's back in the Garrison is the two of the three.

379
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 1: Let's talk about one Jasper?

380
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:03,120
Speaker 2: Want to talk about Jasper and Trent?

381
00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:04,960
Speaker 1: I intentionally didn't bring it up in the first segment because

382
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,880
Speaker 1: it's not a fun topic. That was That was some

383
00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:10,800
Speaker 1: of Jasper's worst work. I think there he went over

384
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 1: three from three, Trent went over from three for three,

385
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:15,800
Speaker 1: but Jasper had the turnover and then the next trip

386
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:18,840
Speaker 1: down the floor almost another turnover where we got Trapp

387
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,600
Speaker 1: lost the ball. Luckily Diabatee recovers. I think they even scored.

388
00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:24,320
Speaker 1: I mean, he looked unplayable out there.

389
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:25,320
Speaker 2: So what do we do?

390
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 1: I mean, what part of it is they're supposed to

391
00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,720
Speaker 1: be further down the bench true than they are now.

392
00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 1: I mean, you've got guys that probably shouldn't be playing

393
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 1: when you're healthy. But if Kentucky can't, everybody wants them

394
00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:40,480
Speaker 1: to make this run. We just had a collar saying

395
00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 1: they're optimistic. The bench has to be better than what

396
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 1: we got tonight. Outside of Diabaatee Garrison, Noah and Jasper

397
00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:48,880
Speaker 1: Johnson were one for eleven from the field.

398
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, and Trent, I mean he hit the side of

399
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:52,000
Speaker 2: the backboard.

400
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:54,360
Speaker 1: Oh, that corner three was ugly. And then he got

401
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 1: two more looks in the first half that were wide open.

402
00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:59,720
Speaker 1: You cannot ask for better looks than those two he

403
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:02,520
Speaker 1: got and break both of those. I mean he hasn't

404
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:04,080
Speaker 1: made a field goal since January.

405
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:08,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's probably getting mental at this point, right, you're pressing.

406
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:10,439
Speaker 2: You're only in the minutes for a few times, and

407
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:12,320
Speaker 2: you know if you miss, you're gonna be subbed out.

408
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,280
Speaker 2: I mean, how many minutes do you get in this game?

409
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:15,280
Speaker 2: Six minutes?

410
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:18,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, he didn't come back in the second half. I'm

411
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:21,399
Speaker 1: not mistaken once with eight, No, I didn't. This is

412
00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:23,080
Speaker 1: the last game he went and rebounded. He did it

413
00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:26,119
Speaker 1: again tonight. Helped out there. But he's on this team

414
00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:28,399
Speaker 1: and he gets his minutes to hit the open threes.

415
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:31,840
Speaker 1: And once again, zero for three from both of those guests. Well,

416
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:35,600
Speaker 1: that's tough, but we can lift off the bench. Diabot

417
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:37,720
Speaker 1: to you, we never really got fully into how good

418
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 1: he was. In the second half. He was attacking, he

419
00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:42,760
Speaker 1: had the breakaway where he gets the steal, finishes the

420
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,480
Speaker 1: and one goes in to end, made a nice cut

421
00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:49,040
Speaker 1: to get a two, getting blocked on the dunk. Not

422
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,000
Speaker 1: the best look. But other than that, he just went

423
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:52,840
Speaker 1: to war and was bullying in there when it was

424
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:55,440
Speaker 1: clear that Kentucky had an advantage in the front court. He

425
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:57,240
Speaker 1: have ten of his twelve points in the second half,

426
00:17:57,240 --> 00:17:59,639
Speaker 1: all of his rebounds. Where I mentioned Yellovich did a

427
00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 1: little bit in the first half. In the second they

428
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:02,919
Speaker 1: just leaned on Diabate in the muscle.

429
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,200
Speaker 2: You're exactly right, and it's the perfect time to give

430
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:08,200
Speaker 2: our Johnny Rocker personal injury attorney moneymaker of the game.

431
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:11,000
Speaker 2: Drew Indured gets small town compassion with big city results.

432
00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:13,159
Speaker 2: When you call the Rocker at two seven zho three

433
00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:16,120
Speaker 2: two one four four two nine, And while Denzel Aberdeen

434
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,320
Speaker 2: led the team in scoring it, I think it's no

435
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 2: doubt Mo Diabate tonight. I mean also think back earlier

436
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,240
Speaker 2: in this year, Moe was screaming at the guys while

437
00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:27,040
Speaker 2: still on the court. You know, like maybe somebody that

438
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:30,560
Speaker 2: could derail this team fully. And you know, Mark Pope

439
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:32,639
Speaker 2: has kept his head in it, and he was just

440
00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:35,280
Speaker 2: somebody that I thought played really well in that second half.

441
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 2: Drew gave Kentucky a shot to win that game.

442
00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 6: Yeah.

443
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:39,720
Speaker 1: Well when Kentucky, I mean right away, they give up

444
00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:41,880
Speaker 1: the seven point half time lead. Seven oh runs South

445
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:43,720
Speaker 1: Carolina immediately ty.

446
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:45,240
Speaker 2: Game forty seconds.

447
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:47,400
Speaker 1: And let's be honest, a lot of us though, I'll

448
00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:50,240
Speaker 1: here we go again. But Diabate had the big five

449
00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:52,480
Speaker 1: zero run kind of sparked and got him going.

450
00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:53,080
Speaker 5: Uh.

451
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 1: He had the highest plus modus on the team. I

452
00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:57,120
Speaker 1: believe it was a sixteen Yeah in twenty minutes. Yeah,

453
00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,200
Speaker 1: Kentucky's five and oh this year when he gets to

454
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:01,680
Speaker 1: twelve points a huge game for him. He and Aberdeen

455
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:04,760
Speaker 1: really really carried the team. Where otego. Wade cooled off

456
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:07,160
Speaker 1: a little bit, which which he earned a night off.

457
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:08,080
Speaker 1: We'll give him that one.

458
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:10,320
Speaker 2: Who's up next on the phone, Hannah is up neck.

459
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:14,399
Speaker 7: Hello, Hannah, Hey guys, first time, long time.

460
00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:16,760
Speaker 1: Who there you go?

461
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:17,520
Speaker 5: Thank you?

462
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:18,120
Speaker 8: Hey.

463
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,359
Speaker 7: I was at the game tonight. I just wanted to

464
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,080
Speaker 7: say that I thought the crowd was about forty five

465
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:27,720
Speaker 7: to fifty percent Kentucky fans.

466
00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:30,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm glad you called in. I want to hear

467
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:33,560
Speaker 1: about this. It sounded mostly Kentucky. We had lots of

468
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:36,399
Speaker 1: go Big Blues, and anytime they showed the crowd empty

469
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:38,080
Speaker 1: Carolina seats and then it looked like there was just

470
00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:40,680
Speaker 1: an entire UK wall of people in one section. Looked

471
00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:41,440
Speaker 1: like a good turnout.

472
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:46,399
Speaker 7: Yeah, I was in that wall, but yeah, it was

473
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 7: for sure mostly Kentucky fans. The guy I went with

474
00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:52,280
Speaker 7: is a South Carolina fan, so I'm very glad that

475
00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:52,800
Speaker 7: we won.

476
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:58,960
Speaker 1: Well. Were they very hospitable? I have always said they

477
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:00,720
Speaker 1: can be some of the worst a conference and it

478
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:03,920
Speaker 1: doesn't get talked about it. Ryan. Yeah, Ryan's been punched there.

479
00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:05,680
Speaker 1: I've seen things there. Did Did you have a good

480
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:08,240
Speaker 1: time in addition to the win? Were they nice to you?

481
00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:10,120
Speaker 9: Yeah?

482
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:13,120
Speaker 7: So it's interesting. I've been to a South Carolina football

483
00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 7: game and they were the nastiest people I've been around

484
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 7: as far as fans, but the basketball fans they seem

485
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 7: to be a lot, a lot nicer. I had some

486
00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:26,840
Speaker 7: good talks with some older folks around us, and I

487
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:29,240
Speaker 7: think they were also out numbered, so they really couldn't say.

488
00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:32,919
Speaker 1: Anything well, we appreciate you being there again us the wind.

489
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:35,680
Speaker 1: Do you get to go to many games?

490
00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:36,239
Speaker 5: Uh?

491
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:38,919
Speaker 7: Yeah, when I'm home, I do. I go to the

492
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:42,840
Speaker 7: Clinton game and the South Carolina game because I'm in

493
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,600
Speaker 7: Myrtle Beach. But yeah, they were awesome. I met a

494
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:48,720
Speaker 7: lot of the players. I met Pope again, Yeah it

495
00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:52,160
Speaker 7: was it was. I met Mitch. He was nice, but yeah,

496
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:53,440
Speaker 7: it was a great experience.

497
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:55,760
Speaker 1: Well it sounds like a great time. Thanks for calling in.

498
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:57,919
Speaker 1: Tell us about it. We appreciate it. Cool that you

499
00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:00,760
Speaker 1: got to meet Mark Pope. Cool that you live the beat. Yeah,

500
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:03,160
Speaker 1: it's pretty awesome. Got to me, Mitch, jealous, I haven't

501
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:04,879
Speaker 1: done that. Yeah that sounds fun. If you had a

502
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:06,480
Speaker 1: big night, big.

503
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:07,560
Speaker 2: Night, you haven't met Mitch?

504
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:09,800
Speaker 1: Huh No, one day. Who's up next?

505
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:11,240
Speaker 2: Let's go to Justin?

506
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:12,800
Speaker 1: Hello, Justin?

507
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:13,880
Speaker 2: What do you got for us?

508
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:14,400
Speaker 10: Hey?

509
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:15,200
Speaker 11: How's it going?

510
00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:18,240
Speaker 1: If we are excellent? Kentucky just got to win. Couldn't

511
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:20,880
Speaker 1: be better. That's right, that's right.

512
00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:25,000
Speaker 11: I was at the bar tonight, drove down. I live

513
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 11: up in Frankfurt and drove down to watch the game

514
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:30,359
Speaker 11: with some friends over at the bar this evening. And

515
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 11: one thing that I noticed not only you know, with

516
00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 11: the arena there at South Carolina looking half empty. You know,

517
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:40,800
Speaker 11: it's a Tuesday night Kentucky places at seven o'clock, that's

518
00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:44,159
Speaker 11: a good time to play, and I anticipated, you know,

519
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:48,280
Speaker 11: the bar being packed and people being excited and you know,

520
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,800
Speaker 11: ready to see. UK kind of snapped this streak that

521
00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 11: they've been in. And the one thing that I'm realizing

522
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:58,080
Speaker 11: with this season is like the hype just isn't there.

523
00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:02,120
Speaker 11: You know, watching the game tonight, there were times when

524
00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:04,080
Speaker 11: it would have been easy to tune out a little

525
00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:07,159
Speaker 11: bit or you know, not really focus in on what's happening.

526
00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:09,760
Speaker 11: So I'm just curious from you guys, like what can

527
00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:12,600
Speaker 11: we do to really get some hype back up in

528
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:14,840
Speaker 11: this program. I mean, I think these next few games

529
00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:18,000
Speaker 11: are a chance to do that, but I'm just curious

530
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 11: from y'all, like, what does it look like to bring

531
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,280
Speaker 11: back some of that good Kentucky hype of we've got

532
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:26,040
Speaker 11: basketball games to play and there's tournaments coming up and

533
00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:28,119
Speaker 11: we should be excited, but it just kind of feels

534
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:32,280
Speaker 11: blash going into both the SEC and the NCAA.

535
00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:35,040
Speaker 1: You're right, I appreciate the call. Hope you had a

536
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:36,600
Speaker 1: good time at the bar. I don't know how you

537
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:40,040
Speaker 1: fix it. I mean this season, if you went three

538
00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:42,520
Speaker 1: and oho these next three games heading into Nashville, maybe

539
00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:44,199
Speaker 1: when a couple there that gets people excited that you

540
00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 1: turned a corner. But otherwise they're just gonna have to

541
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:49,240
Speaker 1: kill it. This offseason, as we just mentioned with another caller,

542
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:51,680
Speaker 1: they struck out completely on the high school class or

543
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:54,040
Speaker 1: at least it's the bottom of the ninth to two outs,

544
00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:55,720
Speaker 1: and it's looking like they're about to strike out and

545
00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 1: get shut out in that one transfer portal. We'll see

546
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:02,080
Speaker 1: what's there if it's anything like football, there was kind

547
00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:03,800
Speaker 1: of a dip and what went into the portal this

548
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:06,359
Speaker 1: year is everything's kind of leveling out. We don't know

549
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 1: what'll be there for basketball, but whatever's in there, you

550
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,560
Speaker 1: got guys you want to retain. But also you have

551
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:14,200
Speaker 1: to go after the biggest fish. You missed those last year,

552
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:18,800
Speaker 1: the Axles, Wilkerson, Indiana, Dem Marie Yuka, even like Pierre

553
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:20,920
Speaker 1: at SMU, you didn't get any of those guys, and

554
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:23,679
Speaker 1: they're lighting up to the scoreboard at their new schools.

555
00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:25,240
Speaker 1: Those are the kind of guys you have to go find,

556
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:26,959
Speaker 1: not a bunch of six men that you hope will

557
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:27,760
Speaker 1: hit another level.

558
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 2: There's a lot of special freshmen in college basketball this year,

559
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:33,080
Speaker 2: and Park Pope has to prove that he can get

560
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 2: somebody out of the state of Kentucky. When it comes

561
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:37,840
Speaker 2: to recruiting and building up that hype that the caller's

562
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:39,840
Speaker 2: looking for. You want to bring the hype back, you

563
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:42,359
Speaker 2: start winning games. I mean, that's exactly how you do it.

564
00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:44,720
Speaker 2: You want to get that bar packed. Let's go on

565
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:47,000
Speaker 2: an elite eight run. Let's see the excitement. Then people

566
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:49,399
Speaker 2: will buy all the way back in. And remember, this

567
00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:52,040
Speaker 2: is what you're remembered for, is how you finish in

568
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:54,880
Speaker 2: the postseason. This could all be a moot point if

569
00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:56,800
Speaker 2: they go on a run. So I mean, there is

570
00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:59,480
Speaker 2: still excitement left to be had, But there was definitely

571
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:01,360
Speaker 2: a time in the game where I did not think

572
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:02,480
Speaker 2: any of that would be coming.

573
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,640
Speaker 1: And we've already show him this year. We'll believe. Think

574
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:08,200
Speaker 1: about I was in Nashville for the Gonzaga game where

575
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:10,399
Speaker 1: they were getting boot gym. I couldn't believe what I

576
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:12,679
Speaker 1: was hearing. I couldn't believe what I was watching. I

577
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:16,080
Speaker 1: couldn't believe life in that moment. Then a month and

578
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:17,520
Speaker 1: a half later, they win eight of nine and the

579
00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:19,959
Speaker 1: SEC play Florida close. I think you get a lot

580
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:23,320
Speaker 1: of hype back, and then you have the Georgia Auburn games.

581
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:25,600
Speaker 1: It's like the team wants to believe when they had

582
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:27,560
Speaker 1: that run, get the Arkansas win. I think a lot

583
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:30,720
Speaker 1: of people thought, oop, I'm a tiptoe back onto his

584
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:32,640
Speaker 1: boat and pretend I didn't tweet some of that stuff.

585
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:34,200
Speaker 1: But then we're kind of a right back.

586
00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:34,560
Speaker 5: Yeah.

587
00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 2: Online, It's like the fire Mark Pope crowds quiet this

588
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:40,040
Speaker 2: week and then it flips the next week. I mean

589
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:43,800
Speaker 2: it's fans are fickle, but this year has just been extreme,

590
00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 2: hasn't it. You go and beat Arkansas on the road

591
00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:49,600
Speaker 2: like that, two wins against Tennessee. You know, you beat

592
00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:52,720
Speaker 2: Saint John's. They haven't lost a game since, so, I mean,

593
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:55,600
Speaker 2: like that's gonna be a good win on your resume.

594
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:59,080
Speaker 2: But ultimately it's just one of those years up and down.

595
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:01,280
Speaker 1: Tennessee down five to Missouri right now?

596
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:04,080
Speaker 2: So are we rooting for Missouri here or Tennessee.

597
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:06,800
Speaker 1: I was kind of rooting for Tennessee to to, you know,

598
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 1: just push Missouri down a little bit more. But you're

599
00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:10,960
Speaker 1: never You're never going to see me mad about the

600
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:12,959
Speaker 1: balls losing. Not one time I've I've been mad when

601
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:15,800
Speaker 1: the ball's lost. Yeah, so kind of indifferent. I would say,

602
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:17,879
Speaker 1: let's say one more of than Yeah, so it's a

603
00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:20,240
Speaker 1: one more call. Okay, let's get one more call Jack,

604
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:21,720
Speaker 1: Hello Jack, what's going on?

605
00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:27,520
Speaker 12: Hey, Drew, me and my brother are currently driving back

606
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:30,280
Speaker 12: from the game. We both go to the University of

607
00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:33,400
Speaker 12: Georgia and drove up to the drove up to South

608
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:35,560
Speaker 12: Carolina to watch the game, and you know, we were

609
00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:38,119
Speaker 12: kind of wondering. We're like, I feel like all these

610
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:40,919
Speaker 12: Kentucky kids who go to different schools and they go

611
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:43,919
Speaker 12: to different places in the world, they all stay Kentucky fans.

612
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:46,200
Speaker 12: One person we took a picture for her. She said

613
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,480
Speaker 12: she went to South Carolina and her husband went to

614
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:50,880
Speaker 12: South Carolina. It is from South Carolina, but she's still

615
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:53,840
Speaker 12: a Kentucky fan. So despite all these other schools and

616
00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:55,800
Speaker 12: all these other places that people go, why is it

617
00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:58,639
Speaker 12: that all of us from Kentucky just staate Kentucky fans

618
00:25:58,680 --> 00:25:58,920
Speaker 12: like that?

619
00:25:58,960 --> 00:25:59,880
Speaker 6: What is it about UK?

620
00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:01,320
Speaker 13: It is so special to us?

621
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:04,120
Speaker 10: You know, I can kind of tell you, but I'm

622
00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:04,560
Speaker 10: just curious.

623
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:05,280
Speaker 12: What your thoughts are.

624
00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:07,320
Speaker 1: Thank you appreciate the call.

625
00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:07,640
Speaker 14: One.

626
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:10,679
Speaker 1: We're just better people, We're better human beings. We're loyal,

627
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:14,520
Speaker 1: We're not turning on our team. You know, we start

628
00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 1: at birth liking Kentucky, and we will die like in

629
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:18,640
Speaker 1: Kentucky and all the in between. We'll just we're along

630
00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 1: for the ride. And I don't know, I think like

631
00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:25,240
Speaker 1: most people in this state are from wherever you're from Kentucky,

632
00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 1: like your your parents liked it, your grandparents liked it.

633
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,719
Speaker 1: It's passed down to you. It's not a choice. Like

634
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:35,080
Speaker 1: my grandparents, their living room had like framed sports illustrated.

635
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:37,639
Speaker 1: It's in a few case stuff like you grow up.

636
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:39,119
Speaker 1: I mean, there were a few photos of me and

637
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:41,480
Speaker 1: the other grandkids, but there was also like there's Mike

638
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:43,760
Speaker 1: Phillips and there's a picture of Antoine Walker.

639
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:44,000
Speaker 14: You know.

640
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:47,359
Speaker 2: It's it's like Kyle Macy prayer at the dinner table

641
00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:48,040
Speaker 2: most nights.

642
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:51,119
Speaker 1: Absolutely, he was at the dinner table one time. You know,

643
00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:53,439
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that didn't happen everywhere else, but at

644
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:56,119
Speaker 1: Kentucky there's just not other distractions. It's like it is

645
00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:59,080
Speaker 1: Kentucky basketball. You were born here, it is you were

646
00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:00,879
Speaker 1: gonna like it, and you were expected to pass it

647
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:03,359
Speaker 1: on to That's right. Wherever you move in life, whoever

648
00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:05,200
Speaker 1: you marry, whatever school you go to, you might get

649
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:08,880
Speaker 1: a job that flies out to San Francisco. Whatever. You're

650
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:10,359
Speaker 1: sticking with the Cats. It's born in you, It's in

651
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 1: your blood.

652
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:12,200
Speaker 2: That's what connects the Commonwealth.

653
00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:12,360
Speaker 5: Man.

654
00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:15,040
Speaker 2: When there's no pro sports team, people rally around things

655
00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:18,440
Speaker 2: like that. And I'm originally from Florida and have made

656
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:20,679
Speaker 2: Kentucky my home when I was thirteen years old and

657
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:22,920
Speaker 2: have been here ever since. And every time I leave,

658
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:24,720
Speaker 2: I want to come back to Kentucky. There is a

659
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:27,040
Speaker 2: yearning to be back in the Commonwealth. And you hit

660
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 2: the nail on the head. The people are nicer here,

661
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:30,399
Speaker 2: just much nicer.

662
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:33,080
Speaker 1: No, we're the best humans. Come on, We're not perfect.

663
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:35,840
Speaker 1: We get especially online after a loss. You know, like

664
00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:39,080
Speaker 1: two percent of us probably with the best, best people. Overall,

665
00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:42,520
Speaker 1: we're great and we are carrying Kentucky basketball. Can I

666
00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:45,119
Speaker 1: make that point please? I've been thinking about this lately.

667
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:48,080
Speaker 1: What are the good things about Kentucky basketball right now?

668
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:51,760
Speaker 1: It's not recruiting, it's not the it's not the record

669
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,480
Speaker 1: in several years. Uh, huh, We're not really in the

670
00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:58,440
Speaker 1: national conversation lately. Probably not gonna win a title. It's

671
00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:00,360
Speaker 1: been a long time since I won the title. Long times.

672
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 1: We've been a found of four, been a long time

673
00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:04,119
Speaker 1: since we've even done anything. The sc turn hurting me

674
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:05,880
Speaker 1: right now. Hold on though, you know what's there every

675
00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:09,440
Speaker 1: damn year, the fans. We got this team on our

676
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:13,879
Speaker 1: backs carrying them right now. Think about that. Everything is

677
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:16,560
Speaker 1: down a little bit across UK basketball. But yes, we

678
00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:19,000
Speaker 1: might be slightly crazy and a lot of people hate

679
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:21,120
Speaker 1: us because the way we act. But the thing that's

680
00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:23,600
Speaker 1: still making Kentucky right now, it's Big Blue Nation.

681
00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:26,600
Speaker 2: Well you think about how bad they've played in Nashville

682
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:29,440
Speaker 2: this year, and then you see the crowd that still

683
00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:32,399
Speaker 2: shows up at the SEC turn Exactly, it's gonna be

684
00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:35,240
Speaker 2: a big Blue takeover still even if they play on

685
00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:36,600
Speaker 2: Wednesday at one.

686
00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:40,240
Speaker 1: Respectfully to this team, did they deserve to have a

687
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:42,760
Speaker 1: road crowd like they did tonight yelling go big Blue

688
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:45,800
Speaker 1: through the TV? Probably not, But those are Kentucky fans.

689
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:48,520
Speaker 1: That's what we do. We're the best and right now

690
00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:50,800
Speaker 1: we're the best thing the program's got going, and the

691
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:52,840
Speaker 1: rest will get better. But in the meantime, the fans

692
00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:54,560
Speaker 1: are still gonna be here doing with it.

693
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:56,440
Speaker 2: Amen, how about that preach.

694
00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:59,640
Speaker 1: Second break, Shout the fans, Shout out the gut airport

695
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:02,880
Speaker 1: in the bathroom. We'll be here back, Welcome back in

696
00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:07,320
Speaker 1: to the local Toyota Dealers KSR postgame show Drew Franklin

697
00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 1: and Billy Rolich after Kentucky's seventy two to sixty three

698
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:16,160
Speaker 1: win at South Carolina Kats. What eighteen and ten, nine

699
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:18,960
Speaker 1: and six in the conference, that's right, feel pretty firm

700
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:21,920
Speaker 1: and then NCAA tournament now you can stop those conversations.

701
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:24,000
Speaker 1: Still need to get another win to get out of

702
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:26,200
Speaker 1: that Wednesday talk. Maybe he can do that with Vandy

703
00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:28,160
Speaker 1: coming to town on Saturday. But for right now, we're

704
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:31,800
Speaker 1: still celebrating the nine point win. We're celebrating Denzel Aberdeen,

705
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:36,440
Speaker 1: celebrating Modia Baughte Colin Chandler with another dagger, decaf dagger.

706
00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:37,680
Speaker 1: We call him another big.

707
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:41,400
Speaker 2: Three, Yeah, Colin Chandler Man. And he played so poorly

708
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:43,600
Speaker 2: in the last game. He disappeared, you don't know, you

709
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:46,840
Speaker 2: know what happened. And he had hit some big shots

710
00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:49,040
Speaker 2: in that eight of nine stretch that Kentucky had won

711
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:50,760
Speaker 2: and good to see him hit another one tonight.

712
00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:53,440
Speaker 1: Before we get more phone calls here. I haven't heard

713
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:56,520
Speaker 1: your thoughts because it broke after our morning shows about

714
00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 1: Mark Pope having a ride of twenty five thousand dollars.

715
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:01,240
Speaker 2: Check surprise, it was only twenty five k. Honestly, I

716
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:04,239
Speaker 2: don't know what the standard is for that, but I

717
00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:06,080
Speaker 2: feel like I would have made more of an example

718
00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 2: out of him for trying to dodge the way that

719
00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:10,240
Speaker 2: you do it, right.

720
00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:11,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, I did. I didn't think he's getting out of

721
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:13,720
Speaker 1: that one. I don't know the scale of you know

722
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:15,760
Speaker 1: where that fits in the line of fines, but I

723
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,120
Speaker 1: knew he'd be riding one. I saw after the game.

724
00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:21,080
Speaker 1: They asked Denzel Aberteine if he's gonna help pay it.

725
00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:23,160
Speaker 1: He was like, heck, no, no, it's all on It's

726
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:24,680
Speaker 1: all on Mark Poe. But he had a good laugh

727
00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:26,200
Speaker 1: about it after the win in South Carolina.

728
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 2: I mean, that'd be a stupid question ten years ago, right,

729
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:31,320
Speaker 2: but nowadays these guys got they can all chip in

730
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:34,240
Speaker 2: if Mark was really upset about somebody and lost it.

731
00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:37,000
Speaker 2: But I don't know, man, I don't know. Do you

732
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:39,520
Speaker 2: think that he'll get thrown out of a game as

733
00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:40,640
Speaker 2: head coach at Kentucky.

734
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:45,280
Speaker 1: No, not with that kind of language. Now he's he's

735
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:47,560
Speaker 1: he didn't say the full word. I don't think he's

736
00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:48,480
Speaker 1: capable of getting.

737
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:50,400
Speaker 2: Thrown out of as a line stepper.

738
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:52,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, even even when he punched the whiteboard in that

739
00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:54,760
Speaker 1: CBS thing, you know, like gently held the back of

740
00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:56,600
Speaker 1: the whiteboard as he punched it at which is a

741
00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:59,520
Speaker 1: good qual to have, not Hayting. That's a great guy.

742
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:02,600
Speaker 1: But I don't know if we're gonna get the thrown

743
00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:04,280
Speaker 1: me out. I guess he threw a water bottle at

744
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:06,360
Speaker 1: BYU and get tossed. Got tossed one time. I saw

745
00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:06,840
Speaker 1: that video.

746
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,040
Speaker 2: Okay, so I guess he does have it in him

747
00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:11,360
Speaker 2: if there's a problem here. But he's gotten more technicals

748
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:13,600
Speaker 2: this year than I mean, I would have lost betting

749
00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:15,760
Speaker 2: the under on that, So he's been personal.

750
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:18,080
Speaker 1: I have one more thing before the phone lines. Yeah,

751
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:20,760
Speaker 1: and it's late. I feel like I'm getting mean, and

752
00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:22,560
Speaker 1: I don't want to be mean. I try to be

753
00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:25,000
Speaker 1: nice to everyone. But Billy South Carolina is not good

754
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:26,920
Speaker 1: at basketball. And I don't say that to take away

755
00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:29,360
Speaker 1: from Kentucky's win. I'm happy we won however it looked.

756
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:33,520
Speaker 1: But how did South Carolina win three games? They're terrible?

757
00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 1: Meet you Johnson. He's had big games against Kentucky in

758
00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:37,920
Speaker 1: the past. He is what he is. Had some tough

759
00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:40,080
Speaker 1: shots tonight, he got to the foul line. What was

760
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:42,480
Speaker 1: that strong dude had had a stretch where he turned

761
00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 1: it on. But he was zero for seven from three

762
00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:48,440
Speaker 1: the kpiic Kapik. Yeah, they were just giving him open shots.

763
00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:50,640
Speaker 1: I think he was one for six. For them to

764
00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 1: hit four threes to start the game and then finish

765
00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:56,720
Speaker 1: eight of twenty nine shows you how cold they got.

766
00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:00,800
Speaker 1: I'm glad, you know, not trying to take away from

767
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:03,320
Speaker 1: Kentucky's victory by calling out the opponent. Well you are

768
00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:05,280
Speaker 1: a little bit, but yeah, okay, but it needs to

769
00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:06,680
Speaker 1: be noted that was not a good team.

770
00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:08,120
Speaker 2: No, I was gonna go to the same point. They

771
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:10,560
Speaker 2: hit four threes in the first four minutes and they

772
00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:13,040
Speaker 2: end the first half shooting twenty five percent, like it

773
00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:17,360
Speaker 2: was just a disaster offensively for them. After that, they

774
00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:20,600
Speaker 2: can't get a rebound. I mean, you've got Yellovich out

775
00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:23,160
Speaker 2: jumping these guys for rebounds, so I mean they've got

776
00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:25,640
Speaker 2: a lot to work on. Obviously to work on.

777
00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:28,160
Speaker 1: Where are they working on for us? Three games left?

778
00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 2: I mean that you could all that march baby, yeah,

779
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:34,120
Speaker 2: not going on a run. Do you think mister Paris

780
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:35,080
Speaker 2: is gone? I don't know.

781
00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:38,640
Speaker 1: He's from my wife's hometown, Finley, Ohio. And while I

782
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:40,520
Speaker 1: was watching him, I was eating a bowl of ice

783
00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:42,720
Speaker 1: cream from this famous shop in Finley, Ohio, and I

784
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:44,760
Speaker 1: felt sad for him looking down him ice cream, you

785
00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:46,800
Speaker 1: know when it's probably over for him there. I mean

786
00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:50,760
Speaker 1: they lost all the stat the rebounds, losing that by

787
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:54,640
Speaker 1: twenty Kentucky's fast break points twenty six to seven. Kentucky

788
00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:56,800
Speaker 1: won like every stat It's amazing the game was as

789
00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:58,560
Speaker 1: close as it was. In fact, as I'm just reading

790
00:32:58,560 --> 00:32:59,680
Speaker 1: the box score here, I don't know how it was

791
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:01,440
Speaker 1: closed as it was, but I just needed to get

792
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:03,040
Speaker 1: it off my chest. Well that I do not think

793
00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:05,440
Speaker 1: South Carolina is great at the sport of men's basketball.

794
00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:08,120
Speaker 2: Maybe the empty gym should have eluded that for us.

795
00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:09,360
Speaker 2: Before the game even started.

796
00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:10,520
Speaker 1: Don Staley was there.

797
00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:13,160
Speaker 2: Don Staley was there. Maybe they're just so invested in

798
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:15,360
Speaker 2: the women's team they don't have enough energy for the men.

799
00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:16,560
Speaker 1: Shane Biemer was there.

800
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:18,520
Speaker 2: I hate that guy.

801
00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:20,560
Speaker 1: All right, who's up next?

802
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:21,520
Speaker 2: Let's go to Nick?

803
00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:23,120
Speaker 1: Hello, Nick, do you like Shane Beemer?

804
00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:26,560
Speaker 5: Of course?

805
00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:26,680
Speaker 7: Not?

806
00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:31,560
Speaker 1: All right, me either. It makes three of us.

807
00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:34,920
Speaker 4: Just a couple of comments. One would be about the

808
00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:39,360
Speaker 4: box score of the minutes, and then about Cam Williams

809
00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:41,360
Speaker 4: as well. But the box score, I mean, I like

810
00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:45,160
Speaker 4: seeing the Oway, Aberdeen and Chandler each had around thirty

811
00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:47,360
Speaker 4: five minutes. Thirty five plus minutes. I mean, you got

812
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:50,800
Speaker 4: to have that the rest of the way. And I

813
00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:53,560
Speaker 4: think what I would change is, you know, Yellow mich

814
00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:56,240
Speaker 4: has a little less than seventeen minutes. Do you about

815
00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:58,160
Speaker 4: they have twenty minutes. I think you just got to

816
00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:01,320
Speaker 4: give those guys more minutes and take away minutes from Garrison,

817
00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:05,960
Speaker 4: have him about five or six Johnson, I just don't

818
00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:07,840
Speaker 4: feel like you can play him unless you have a

819
00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:10,799
Speaker 4: huge lead by at least fifteen points or so. He's

820
00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:15,680
Speaker 4: just not given anything, Noah. I mean he got about

821
00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:17,520
Speaker 4: five minutes, but he got your five rebounds. I mean,

822
00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:19,320
Speaker 4: he's got to make the shots, but he's getting boards.

823
00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:20,840
Speaker 4: I still think he can put him out there for

824
00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:22,279
Speaker 4: a few minutes a game. I just think you got

825
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:25,040
Speaker 4: to give some of these big guys some more minutes.

826
00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:27,759
Speaker 4: I mean, because we've got three games left and then postseason.

827
00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:32,160
Speaker 4: And last thing I would say on it is if

828
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:34,560
Speaker 4: there's some way, you know, they got to get Cam

829
00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:37,560
Speaker 4: Williams back somehow because they just need that extra shooter

830
00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:41,040
Speaker 4: and that extra big guy on the four to just

831
00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:42,600
Speaker 4: to stress the defense more.

832
00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:44,400
Speaker 8: Thank you.

833
00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:46,520
Speaker 1: I appreciate the call. I would love to get Cam

834
00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:49,279
Speaker 1: Williams back in Pope keeps holding out Hope, saying if

835
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:51,680
Speaker 1: they can go on long enough run, then maybe they

836
00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 1: can get him to help Billy. I just don't know

837
00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:55,799
Speaker 1: if he gets healthy, guy that's been out that long,

838
00:34:55,880 --> 00:34:58,000
Speaker 1: what he can do. But it is clear how much

839
00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:00,400
Speaker 1: he's missed. I mean, he's the plus minus leader on

840
00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:02,640
Speaker 1: the team and just earned a starting role. I feel

841
00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:05,120
Speaker 1: like he was finally turning a corner and then he

842
00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:07,800
Speaker 1: goes out with that fluke injury. Just getting back on defense,

843
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:08,840
Speaker 1: So that's.

844
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:11,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then like conditioning wise, how in shape is

845
00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:14,399
Speaker 2: he if when he does get healthy. You know, one

846
00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:16,360
Speaker 2: thing the caller says he would like to see Brandon

847
00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:18,319
Speaker 2: Garrison around five or six minutes a game. I just

848
00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:21,760
Speaker 2: don't think we're going to see that. Hope is dedicated.

849
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:26,560
Speaker 1: He's committed. But like Yellovich, I know he thought he

850
00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:28,359
Speaker 1: was Steph Curry here tonight for a little bit, taking

851
00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:29,680
Speaker 1: a lot of threes. But that was a pretty good

852
00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:32,640
Speaker 1: game for him. Eleven matches is high for the year.

853
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:36,040
Speaker 1: He had seventeen minutes to Garrison's thirteen. Maybe just slid

854
00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:38,480
Speaker 1: a few more Yellovich's way. I'd even like to see

855
00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:41,960
Speaker 1: him Diabat play together well when Marino needs a break.

856
00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:46,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I just what was the plan for this

857
00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:49,440
Speaker 2: frontcourt going into the season? I mean, you took a

858
00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 2: guy that was in the same calendar year with a

859
00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:55,800
Speaker 2: major knee injury. I guess your expectation was Brandon Garrison

860
00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:57,680
Speaker 2: was going to be better from last year, but Yellovich

861
00:35:57,719 --> 00:36:00,680
Speaker 2: was a late addition to the roster. What was the

862
00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:02,399
Speaker 2: plan at the front court this year?

863
00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:04,359
Speaker 1: And it just it feels like just a few weeks ago,

864
00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:05,560
Speaker 1: We're like, what are we gonna do with all these

865
00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:07,600
Speaker 1: big men? We have way too many big men. Can

866
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:09,120
Speaker 1: we trade a big man for a guard? And now

867
00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:11,719
Speaker 1: it's like, Eh, need a little help in the front

868
00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:14,040
Speaker 1: court with Marino. I just added to the list of

869
00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:16,319
Speaker 1: the roller coasters things of this season. But I would

870
00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:18,840
Speaker 1: like a little more jelly. Maybe not six three pointers

871
00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:21,000
Speaker 1: in a game. A movie can be really key.

872
00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:23,000
Speaker 2: We talk about the stretch forward, how important it is,

873
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:25,600
Speaker 2: and Mark Pope's offense, So maybe some more of that.

874
00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:27,800
Speaker 2: But I'm telling you Tom was yelling at them to

875
00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:29,759
Speaker 2: shoot the ball at times in this game. As many

876
00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:32,240
Speaker 2: threes as he shot he could have had, maybe even.

877
00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:35,520
Speaker 1: Oh Tom wanted more. Tom he was wide open. They

878
00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:37,399
Speaker 1: were just letting him happen. I didn't do the Tom

879
00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:38,480
Speaker 1: Jack sync up tonight.

880
00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:41,920
Speaker 2: Jack was good tonight. I mean he was frustrated from

881
00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:44,719
Speaker 2: the get go, but then like seeing them fight and

882
00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:47,600
Speaker 2: take the lead, and I mean there was just some

883
00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:51,640
Speaker 2: audible oh man's after some buckets or some bad turnovers.

884
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:54,719
Speaker 2: I just love listening to those guys because they treat

885
00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:56,040
Speaker 2: it like it's their children out there.

886
00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:58,239
Speaker 1: No holding their emotions. Who's up next?

887
00:36:58,400 --> 00:36:58,480
Speaker 7: Ed?

888
00:36:59,200 --> 00:36:59,279
Speaker 3: Ed?

889
00:36:59,280 --> 00:36:59,520
Speaker 1: Hello?

890
00:36:59,719 --> 00:36:59,759
Speaker 2: Ed?

891
00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:00,279
Speaker 1: What's up?

892
00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:05,040
Speaker 5: Hey? Hey, guys. I'm so happy that we won one.

893
00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:10,640
Speaker 5: And I got a question here. We're winning this program

894
00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:13,160
Speaker 5: in the history, But how big of the lead do

895
00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:15,560
Speaker 5: we still have over Tacond Place.

896
00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:18,600
Speaker 2: I think we are second, aren't we.

897
00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:21,680
Speaker 1: No, we had a four game lead over Kansas earlier

898
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:23,839
Speaker 1: in the week. I think a five game lead. Now

899
00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:28,320
Speaker 1: I'm trying to do math on the think call it

900
00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:29,120
Speaker 1: a five game leader.

901
00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:33,799
Speaker 5: Well, I hope we don't hope. I hope we out

902
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:36,959
Speaker 5: asked Kansas and keep the lead. That would be sort

903
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:40,680
Speaker 5: of sad. I've been a Cat cat fan. I'm like

904
00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:43,799
Speaker 5: seventy years old, been a Cat fan all my life.

905
00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:48,279
Speaker 1: And me too, and that's something we're proud of. We

906
00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:50,040
Speaker 1: can't be losing the all time record.

907
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:55,520
Speaker 5: Right, Yeah, that would be a sad thing. But go

908
00:37:55,640 --> 00:37:57,000
Speaker 5: Cats and hope for to this.

909
00:37:57,520 --> 00:37:59,680
Speaker 1: All right, thank you. I actually have the official numbers.

910
00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:01,920
Speaker 1: Now it turns out I was right. Imagine that this

911
00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:06,600
Speaker 1: big brain Kentucky leeds Kansas by five games, two thousand,

912
00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:09,920
Speaker 1: four hundred and forty to two thousand, four hundred and

913
00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:12,799
Speaker 1: thirty five. All right, that's from our guys. Steven Peak

914
00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:14,879
Speaker 1: just tweeted that an hour ago. I stay on top

915
00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:15,160
Speaker 1: of it.

916
00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:16,960
Speaker 2: I remember we had to change it on the open

917
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:19,000
Speaker 2: for UK a couple of years ago.

918
00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:21,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, we've slipped up. I think a couple of times,

919
00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:23,959
Speaker 1: lost it to Kansas, briefly got it back and lost

920
00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:26,040
Speaker 1: it to Carolina for a little bit, got it back.

921
00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:28,319
Speaker 1: Let's just not give it up again. Yeah, it's just

922
00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:33,600
Speaker 1: five game more. Who's next? Michael? Hi, Michael, thanks for

923
00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:34,680
Speaker 1: calling in. What do you think of the game?

924
00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:36,279
Speaker 14: Hey?

925
00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:36,759
Speaker 5: What's up?

926
00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:37,520
Speaker 7: Durry?

927
00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:39,800
Speaker 11: Hey man, me, my dad and my sister.

928
00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:41,960
Speaker 6: We're coming back from the ball game and it's my

929
00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:44,080
Speaker 6: sister's first game.

930
00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:47,000
Speaker 1: She wants to say something, all right, hello sister.

931
00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:48,399
Speaker 9: Hey.

932
00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:50,799
Speaker 13: Yeah, I just wanted to say I have been a

933
00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:53,399
Speaker 13: fan for my whole life, thirty three years. I went

934
00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:57,120
Speaker 13: to my first in person game. We're coming from Charlotte,

935
00:38:57,160 --> 00:38:59,799
Speaker 13: and it was just I was so excited to see

936
00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:03,200
Speaker 13: this players in person. It was just surreal. Even though

937
00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:05,640
Speaker 13: it was a whole away game, it was just, you know,

938
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:08,640
Speaker 13: great to see the team and just being there in person.

939
00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:10,920
Speaker 9: The game was great.

940
00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:11,279
Speaker 7: You know.

941
00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:15,400
Speaker 13: I was so excited to be there, you know. I

942
00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:17,000
Speaker 13: the only thing I could say.

943
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:19,040
Speaker 7: I was a little disappointed in a way.

944
00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:22,200
Speaker 13: A little bit, but Aberdeen and Duabata showed up for

945
00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:25,520
Speaker 13: the team, and I was just great that everybody as

946
00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:27,400
Speaker 13: a team showed up for everybody today.

947
00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:28,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm glad they got the win.

948
00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:29,200
Speaker 5: For you.

949
00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:32,200
Speaker 1: Since you showed up, uh, being your first game in person,

950
00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:35,160
Speaker 1: did you have any like takeaways or observations of something

951
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:37,680
Speaker 1: that was new or different, or something that stood out

952
00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:38,720
Speaker 1: to you watching in person.

953
00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:44,160
Speaker 13: Well, one thing I will say I did notice that

954
00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:48,080
Speaker 13: Hope and the rest of the coaches they kind of

955
00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:51,239
Speaker 13: huddled a little bit at time out before they went

956
00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:53,759
Speaker 13: and spoke to the team, which is really odd. That

957
00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:55,879
Speaker 13: was the first time I noticed that. It was at

958
00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:58,520
Speaker 13: every time out, Like, why are you huddling before you

959
00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 13: go talk to the team. You're taking away time to

960
00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:04,440
Speaker 13: you know, drop a play. When South Carolina was talking

961
00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:07,600
Speaker 13: to their team, the entire team, I'm sorry the entire time.

962
00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:09,759
Speaker 13: That was the first time I noticed that. I thought

963
00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:11,480
Speaker 13: that was a little strange. I don't know what their

964
00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:14,279
Speaker 13: game plan was behind that, but that was what I

965
00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:15,319
Speaker 13: observed during the game.

966
00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:17,759
Speaker 1: Tells me you've been paying attention. They've been doing that

967
00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:19,840
Speaker 1: this year. We've had other people calling and ask that

968
00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:24,120
Speaker 1: as well. Appreciate the call, Billy, that's that's a big thing.

969
00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:26,360
Speaker 1: There's been tome outs where I'm not sure Pope spoke

970
00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:28,680
Speaker 1: to a player because they do their their coaches tom

971
00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:31,120
Speaker 1: out or coaches huddle and the player huddle.

972
00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:32,759
Speaker 2: Is a few feet away, and then sometimes you let

973
00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:34,799
Speaker 2: the assistant go and talk to the guys and maybe

974
00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:35,759
Speaker 2: it's not the head guy.

975
00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:37,640
Speaker 1: So usually Mark I see Mark Fox do it a lot.

976
00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:40,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, so we've seen it a couple different ways with

977
00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:42,600
Speaker 2: how they handle it. It's also a good reminder that

978
00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:44,560
Speaker 2: no matter how bad a game might be, it could

979
00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:47,400
Speaker 2: be somebody's first game, Right, thirty three year fan and

980
00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:49,640
Speaker 2: in their first game happens to be in an empty

981
00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:52,680
Speaker 2: arena in Columbia, South Carolina. But still a special moment, right.

982
00:40:52,760 --> 00:40:54,960
Speaker 1: I have to remind myself RUP a lot. You know,

983
00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:58,279
Speaker 1: I'm pretty blessed covering the team for it feels like

984
00:40:58,280 --> 00:40:59,960
Speaker 1: fifty years. It gets to go to a lot of games,

985
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:03,160
Speaker 1: and there's nights where it's like, oh, Eastern Michigan, so

986
00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:05,040
Speaker 1: you know, stuff like that. But then you get in

987
00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:07,359
Speaker 1: there and you see someone getting their first ice cream

988
00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:10,080
Speaker 1: cone and all that. It brings the joy a little

989
00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:12,399
Speaker 1: back a little bit because it is a very cool

990
00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:14,800
Speaker 1: experience to watch Kentucky basket on person, whether that's in

991
00:41:14,920 --> 00:41:18,200
Speaker 1: RUP or South Carolina or the SEC tournament.

992
00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:19,960
Speaker 2: And then that person's put on the snack Words cam

993
00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:23,160
Speaker 2: and then they're mortified after their first visit to RUP.

994
00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:25,560
Speaker 2: But I mean, there is it is special to see

995
00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:26,799
Speaker 2: your team for the first time like that.

996
00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:29,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've started staring the camera down while I eat,

997
00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:31,000
Speaker 1: just waiting for the red light to go on. You

998
00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:33,080
Speaker 1: want it, You're like, yeah, I bring it. Watch me.

999
00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:35,600
Speaker 1: I intentionally just dropped chili all over my shirt. But

1000
00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:37,759
Speaker 1: nothing yet. We're gonna take another break here.

1001
00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:38,840
Speaker 2: Don't reach that high.

1002
00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:42,000
Speaker 1: Yeah that's true. I'm up in the crow's nest. Another segment.

1003
00:41:42,239 --> 00:41:42,960
Speaker 1: You got anywhere to get?

1004
00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:43,799
Speaker 2: We got one more to go?

1005
00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:44,040
Speaker 3: Yeah?

1006
00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:45,279
Speaker 1: You anywhere to go? You want to do another one?

1007
00:41:45,320 --> 00:41:46,959
Speaker 1: Let's keep it going. Let's keep it going. We should

1008
00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:48,400
Speaker 1: take a break. I think that's how this works when

1009
00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:51,400
Speaker 1: we come back. Dream Billy taking your calls, celebrating Kentucky's

1017

Speaker 8: Hey, buddy?

00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:13,160
Speaker 15: How you doing?

1045
00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:13,399
Speaker 10: Man?

1046
00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:14,399
Speaker 1: Couldn't be better.

1047
00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:18,640
Speaker 9: Hey, you know, I think Matt said it. You know,

1048
00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:21,239
Speaker 9: it was funny. I was listening to it the other day.

1049
00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:24,680
Speaker 15: Actually, Uh it was a podcast that y'all had, uh

1050
00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:28,440
Speaker 15: when Calipari left, and and Matt said it the best.

1051
00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:32,799
Speaker 15: He said, be aware because it's not going to be

1052
00:43:32,880 --> 00:43:37,440
Speaker 15: exciting anymore with you know, the number one recruit or

1053
00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:40,759
Speaker 15: the number five recruit. Uh, just the way they play

1054
00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:44,759
Speaker 15: ball with Mark Pope and and I'm trying to be

1055
00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:48,520
Speaker 15: excited about Kentucky basketball. You know, I've been a fan

1056
00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:52,239
Speaker 15: of most forty years. I've got the jerseys, I've got

1057
00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:53,440
Speaker 15: the makers, Mark.

1058
00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:58,880
Speaker 9: Bottles, And I just found myself tonight almost falling asleep

1059
00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:01,960
Speaker 9: during the game because there's no alley oops, there's no

1060
00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:07,040
Speaker 9: top recruits coming in, there's no number one draft picks,

1061
00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:10,480
Speaker 9: there's no this, there's no that. It's just so hard

1062
00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:15,280
Speaker 9: to get into this mindset of Kentucky basketball is awesome

1063
00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:21,360
Speaker 9: because because why, I mean, we pulled away at the end, sure,

1064
00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:26,080
Speaker 9: but there was like three minutes left. It was a

1065
00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:29,680
Speaker 9: two point game against the worst team in the SEC.

1066
00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:34,839
Speaker 9: Why is that exciting? It's so hard? Man helped me.

1067
00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:40,440
Speaker 1: Out, all right, TJ appreciate the call. There's not that wrong.

1068
00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:43,719
Speaker 1: Wasn't the most fun basketball games to watch? I mean

1069
00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:49,839
Speaker 1: South Carolina shot what a bad Tucky. Both teams under

1070
00:44:49,880 --> 00:44:53,719
Speaker 1: forty from the field, both teams under thirty from three.

1071
00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:56,120
Speaker 1: It was a rock fight. It was four dollars to

1072
00:44:56,160 --> 00:45:00,200
Speaker 1: get in. Yeah, is it really just four dollars? I

1073
00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:02,480
Speaker 1: mean this is one. I don't know if ESPN Classics

1074
00:45:02,480 --> 00:45:05,720
Speaker 1: still exists, the probably won't be turning on ESPN Classic

1075
00:45:05,719 --> 00:45:07,720
Speaker 1: tomorrow to catch this replay. I don't know if SEC

1076
00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:10,440
Speaker 1: network will had this to Kentucky Day when they do

1077
00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:13,480
Speaker 1: that this summer. So TJ, You're not alone in this

1078
00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:16,800
Speaker 1: not being a fun game. And overall, I know, Kentucky basketball,

1079
00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:18,759
Speaker 1: we're in a little bit of a law. It's not

1080
00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:21,560
Speaker 1: the not the gold standard that we're used to, you know,

1081
00:45:21,640 --> 00:45:23,160
Speaker 1: if you don't want to say gold standard and go

1082
00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:25,759
Speaker 1: back farther, not even the nineties, even though we try

1083
00:45:25,800 --> 00:45:26,320
Speaker 1: to wear a dinnum.

1084
00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:28,759
Speaker 2: Well, I mean you made this point. It's not even

1085
00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:31,560
Speaker 2: about just winning games that would bring the excitement back.

1086
00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:34,640
Speaker 2: But you've talked about like the expectation of like going

1087
00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:37,600
Speaker 2: into the NCAA tournament with like a UK you better

1088
00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:40,360
Speaker 2: watch out for Kentucky this year. They don't have that

1089
00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:43,160
Speaker 2: this year. They might be a team that makes an

1090
00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:45,319
Speaker 2: upset or could go on a run, they're not the

1091
00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:48,040
Speaker 2: you gotta watch out for Kentucky this year. And you

1092
00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:50,879
Speaker 2: made that point this week about how that's lost on you.

1093
00:45:51,360 --> 00:45:53,520
Speaker 1: Well, that's what makes me sad billy being a Kentucky

1094
00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:57,080
Speaker 1: basketball fan. It's full time. Like even on a day

1095
00:45:57,360 --> 00:46:00,960
Speaker 1: you know, you play Tuesday, Saturday, Thursday morning, you're thinking

1096
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:03,600
Speaker 1: about Kentucky basketball and what's next. And this time of year,

1097
00:46:03,640 --> 00:46:06,880
Speaker 1: we're absolutely thinking about selection Sunday, we're thinking about the

1098
00:46:06,960 --> 00:46:09,200
Speaker 1: SEC Tournament. We're thinking in our heads we're gonna hang

1099
00:46:09,200 --> 00:46:11,640
Speaker 1: another banner. You're doing the bracket pools at your office,

1100
00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:13,720
Speaker 1: and everyone in the office puts Kentucky as the champion

1101
00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:16,400
Speaker 1: because we're all Kentucky fans. That's what we do. But

1102
00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:19,120
Speaker 1: now we're not in that spot. Like I don't know

1103
00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:21,640
Speaker 1: about you, I'm not thinking about March Madness on Thursday morning,

1104
00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:23,399
Speaker 1: so I don't want to think about March Best on third.

1105
00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:25,440
Speaker 1: Like we don't have that excitement that we have that

1106
00:46:25,520 --> 00:46:28,000
Speaker 1: is just constantly in our brains at all times when

1107
00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:28,760
Speaker 1: things are going.

1108
00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:31,080
Speaker 2: Well and part of the reason is you turn on

1109
00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:33,640
Speaker 2: the TV and you see a game like that seventy

1110
00:46:33,640 --> 00:46:36,480
Speaker 2: two to sixty three against South Carolina, and we just.

1111
00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:39,040
Speaker 1: Had some great games around college back. I mean it

1112
00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:42,279
Speaker 1: was basically a Final four on Saturday with one verse four,

1113
00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:45,040
Speaker 1: two verse three. I mean, this has been for all

1114
00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:48,200
Speaker 1: the complaints about the transfer portal, and I don't like

1115
00:46:48,239 --> 00:46:50,120
Speaker 1: it either. Where you got guys in the G League

1116
00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:53,120
Speaker 1: just showing up with their algebra book acting like they're

1117
00:46:53,160 --> 00:46:54,879
Speaker 1: you know, I'll go back to school. It's like, dude,

1118
00:46:54,920 --> 00:46:56,919
Speaker 1: you're forty, go get a job. I don't like any

1119
00:46:56,960 --> 00:47:00,400
Speaker 1: of that. But this year the games have been pretty

1120
00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:03,719
Speaker 1: awesome and the stars have been stars. I mean, there

1121
00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:06,359
Speaker 1: are some dudes all over the country and it's been

1122
00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:09,600
Speaker 1: a fun season. And when you ask anyone outside of Kentucky,

1123
00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:12,920
Speaker 1: let's talk about it, they're not saying the word Kentucky.

1124
00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:14,560
Speaker 1: It's a lot of other teams that are having all

1125
00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:14,960
Speaker 1: the fun.

1126
00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:15,800
Speaker 8: Yeah.

1127
00:47:15,880 --> 00:47:18,040
Speaker 1: I don't like this negativity, though. TJ got me down

1128
00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:22,320
Speaker 1: the path Kentucky one seventy two sixty three. Remember South

1129
00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:24,520
Speaker 1: Carolina is the bad team, not us. We want let's

1130
00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:25,319
Speaker 1: get to a happier call.

1131
00:47:26,040 --> 00:47:27,560
Speaker 2: We had so many drops, so we have three left.

1132
00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:28,759
Speaker 2: Brandon is up.

1133
00:47:28,680 --> 00:47:34,759
Speaker 1: Next, Sorry to the call they dropped. Hello Brandon, Brandon.

1134
00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:38,839
Speaker 1: All right, Billy. During the break I heard you talking.

1135
00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:41,040
Speaker 1: You said you were worried the phone lines were hanging

1136
00:47:41,120 --> 00:47:42,919
Speaker 1: up on I was, yeah, do we think that's still

1137
00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:43,360
Speaker 1: a concern.

1138
00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:45,759
Speaker 2: No, Brandon's still on the line. Oh okay, I think

1139
00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:47,520
Speaker 2: his like phone may be on mute or something, so

1140
00:47:47,560 --> 00:47:48,880
Speaker 2: I'll try to speak up. I'm just gonna have to

1141
00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:50,560
Speaker 2: open the phones back up drough. I mean, we can't

1142
00:47:50,680 --> 00:47:52,239
Speaker 2: end like that. So we got a couple more here.

1143
00:47:52,320 --> 00:47:53,399
Speaker 2: Luke is up next.

1144
00:47:53,480 --> 00:47:56,680
Speaker 1: Okay, Luke, save us the guys.

1145
00:47:56,800 --> 00:47:58,520
Speaker 3: I just wanted to say a couple of things. One

1146
00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:01,640
Speaker 3: TJ can kiss my ass being so negative. We won, Yes,

1147
00:48:02,239 --> 00:48:05,120
Speaker 3: most ugly. I drove eight hours here to see a

1148
00:48:05,160 --> 00:48:08,000
Speaker 3: game that should have come with a warning label. Yes, okay,

1149
00:48:08,040 --> 00:48:10,520
Speaker 3: that's part of it. Some games you're gonna get be ugly.

1150
00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:11,080
Speaker 10: But we won.

1151
00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:14,439
Speaker 3: Why does it matter? Why are we complaining? He other

1152
00:48:14,480 --> 00:48:16,600
Speaker 3: thing I'm gonna hit people with. I called the pre

1153
00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:19,600
Speaker 3: show earlier and talked about how Kentucky is. You know, basically,

1154
00:48:19,600 --> 00:48:21,279
Speaker 3: this team is like a really hot girlfriend that keeps

1155
00:48:21,320 --> 00:48:23,120
Speaker 3: cheating on you. I mean, that's what they are, and

1156
00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:25,080
Speaker 3: that the program itself is kind of like the oil

1157
00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:27,800
Speaker 3: industry that look, it's boomer bus. There's a lot of

1158
00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:28,279
Speaker 3: boomer Bus.

1159
00:48:28,400 --> 00:48:28,759
Speaker 10: Let me give you.

1160
00:48:28,800 --> 00:48:30,840
Speaker 3: Let me hit you with some facts. My dad was born.

1161
00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:32,520
Speaker 10: In nineteen fifty nine.

1162
00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:35,520
Speaker 3: The first thirty six years of his life, that until

1163
00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:37,560
Speaker 3: nineteen ninety five for all of you that stuck.

1164
00:48:37,320 --> 00:48:38,200
Speaker 5: It, that stuck at mouth.

1165
00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:40,239
Speaker 3: So the first thirty six years, you know what he

1166
00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:43,560
Speaker 3: saw Kentucky basketball do his first thirty six years, one

1167
00:48:43,640 --> 00:48:46,880
Speaker 3: national title in four whole final fours. Dude, my childhood

1168
00:48:46,880 --> 00:48:49,840
Speaker 3: that I had four and five years. Okay, I was blessed. Okay,

1169
00:48:49,840 --> 00:48:53,000
Speaker 3: we are very fortunate to be Kentucky basketball fans because

1170
00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:55,760
Speaker 3: more often than not, it's pretty darn good. And yes,

1171
00:48:55,920 --> 00:48:57,680
Speaker 3: we have been in a blue blood rutt and I

1172
00:48:57,760 --> 00:49:00,799
Speaker 3: do I'm not trying to say that, you know, it's

1173
00:49:00,840 --> 00:49:03,200
Speaker 3: not an issue, because it is an issue. But this

1174
00:49:03,239 --> 00:49:06,799
Speaker 3: program has been in position than we are in now,

1175
00:49:07,160 --> 00:49:09,320
Speaker 3: and in the nil era, you can turn it around

1176
00:49:09,719 --> 00:49:13,080
Speaker 3: very quickly. And I'm just really sick and tired of

1177
00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:16,560
Speaker 3: all the negativity and all that. Listen, I'm not saying

1178
00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:18,479
Speaker 3: I think You know, I have my problems with Pope

1179
00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:21,560
Speaker 3: and all that stuff, But in this moment, right now,

1180
00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:23,160
Speaker 3: I am not going to sit here and be angry

1181
00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:26,160
Speaker 3: about the fact that we won a game. What the

1182
00:49:26,200 --> 00:49:28,880
Speaker 3: hell is wrong with people to be angry at eleven

1183
00:49:28,920 --> 00:49:31,840
Speaker 3: o'clock on a Tuesday night about winning a basketball game?

1184
00:49:32,239 --> 00:49:32,680
Speaker 3: You know what.

1185
00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:34,080
Speaker 10: That's all I got to say.

1186
00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:35,280
Speaker 3: Guys, thank you for taking.

1189
00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:43,080
Speaker 1: He got us back on track. I even drifted to

1190
00:49:43,120 --> 00:49:45,200
Speaker 1: negativity land there for a little bit. Billy had to

1191
00:49:45,239 --> 00:49:46,759
Speaker 1: run down the street and get me, give me back

1192
00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:49,440
Speaker 1: on track. Thank you. When do you do that? Energy?

1193
00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:52,479
Speaker 1: TJ got in my head a little bit talking about

1194
00:49:52,480 --> 00:49:55,400
Speaker 1: big picture things. It don't matter. Just beat South Carolina.

1195
00:49:55,680 --> 00:49:59,160
Speaker 1: Cover the spread, Billy covered J celebrity had nineteen points.

1196
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:02,040
Speaker 1: Oh dear, Batay was awesome in the second half.

1197
00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:04,799
Speaker 2: You can only beat the team in front of you, Drew,

1198
00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:05,640
Speaker 2: That's all you can do.

1199
00:50:05,760 --> 00:50:09,120
Speaker 1: Held him to thirty six percent Kentucky's ten and zero.

1200
00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:13,520
Speaker 1: When they hold teams under forty percent? How do you win?

1201
00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:17,120
Speaker 1: How do you win? The rebounding battle? By twenty Kentucky

1202
00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:19,440
Speaker 1: did that. We're not complaining about that. What else do

1203
00:50:19,440 --> 00:50:23,240
Speaker 1: you like? Colin Chandler with another dagger, another decaf dagger?

1204
00:50:23,280 --> 00:50:25,640
Speaker 1: You like that? He's not done. He's got more of those.

1205
00:50:25,680 --> 00:50:26,920
Speaker 1: I bet he hits one in Nashville.

1206
00:50:27,080 --> 00:50:30,279
Speaker 2: How about Malachi mareno pick and roll out of an

1207
00:50:30,280 --> 00:50:31,240
Speaker 2: inbounds playoff?

1208
00:50:31,719 --> 00:50:35,520
Speaker 1: Chef's Kiss, Chefs Kiss almost did a Ryan lemonnois there? Sorry?

1209
00:50:35,760 --> 00:50:38,399
Speaker 1: Got a little carried away, big game from Malacai two

1210
00:50:38,440 --> 00:50:42,560
Speaker 1: shy of a double double. Love the eleven rebounds. Also,

1211
00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:45,359
Speaker 1: love that we won. I also got out that three

1212
00:50:45,360 --> 00:50:48,120
Speaker 1: game losing streak. Hadn't had one of those in five years.

1213
00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:49,520
Speaker 1: Let's not do that again for a long time.

1214
00:50:50,440 --> 00:50:52,000
Speaker 2: I also got some more people on the line, if

1215
00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:52,319
Speaker 2: you want to.

1216
00:50:52,680 --> 00:50:54,000
Speaker 1: I thought you were gonna tell me more things you're

1217
00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:56,839
Speaker 1: excited about. That looks like Missouri won? Did Missouri win?

1218
00:50:56,880 --> 00:50:59,440
Speaker 1: They look happy? I looked away, and of course it

1219
00:50:59,760 --> 00:51:02,279
Speaker 1: goes to the studio. It looked like they were celebrating.

1220
00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:04,080
Speaker 1: Who's up?

1221
00:51:04,120 --> 00:51:04,960
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, look at them.

1222
00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:07,080
Speaker 1: That's a celebration there. Definitely we're gonna call it here.

1223
00:51:07,120 --> 00:51:09,600
Speaker 1: You're hearing it now on the KSR postgame show. Missouri

1224
00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:12,879
Speaker 1: Tennessee somehow. Oh yeah, up for they're good. Missouri wins. Down,

1225
00:51:12,880 --> 00:51:14,600
Speaker 1: go the ball. It's not mad about it. Who's up next?

1226
00:51:14,680 --> 00:51:15,800
Speaker 2: Matt is up next?

1227
00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:16,279
Speaker 1: Hi, Matt?

1228
00:51:16,320 --> 00:51:16,759
Speaker 2: What's up?

1229
00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:18,480
Speaker 14: Hey?

1230
00:51:18,520 --> 00:51:18,840
Speaker 12: Guys?

1231
00:51:19,320 --> 00:51:22,279
Speaker 14: Great win. I don't don't care at this point. Any

1232
00:51:22,320 --> 00:51:24,319
Speaker 14: win right now is a great win. I thought it was.

1233
00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:29,000
Speaker 14: I thought it was a hard fought win. My concern

1234
00:51:29,200 --> 00:51:33,160
Speaker 14: is is recruiting for next year. I just wonder if, if,

1235
00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:36,080
Speaker 14: maybe what our issue is. We don't have a, say,

1236
00:51:36,120 --> 00:51:39,440
Speaker 14: a Vince Marrow help recruit the guys. Maybe we need

1237
00:51:39,440 --> 00:51:42,200
Speaker 14: to look at our assistant coaches and see, uh why

1238
00:51:42,239 --> 00:51:44,680
Speaker 14: we're not getting recruits. I mean, Mark, Mark can't be

1239
00:51:44,760 --> 00:51:47,160
Speaker 14: the only guy doing the recruiting, and we need, uh,

1240
00:51:47,360 --> 00:51:50,719
Speaker 14: some strong recruiters on the outside. We need, uh. I mean,

1241
00:51:50,760 --> 00:51:53,399
Speaker 14: we had guys with Caliperry that were good at going

1242
00:51:53,440 --> 00:51:56,239
Speaker 14: out and getting people. That's maybe what we're missing right now.

1243
00:51:57,280 --> 00:51:57,640
Speaker 3: Uh.

1244
00:51:57,719 --> 00:52:00,200
Speaker 1: Thank You're exactly right on that. I appreciate the call.

1245
00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:03,040
Speaker 1: They do need some help on the recruiting trail. That's

1246
00:52:03,040 --> 00:52:05,200
Speaker 1: no secret. I think everyone is an agreement. They need

1247
00:52:05,200 --> 00:52:10,120
Speaker 1: a general manager. Hopefully that's announced soon because portal season's

1248
00:52:10,560 --> 00:52:12,799
Speaker 1: right around the corner, and I don't care what people say.

1249
00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:14,839
Speaker 1: Portal season began a long time ago because that's how

1250
00:52:14,880 --> 00:52:15,879
Speaker 1: the sport works.

1251
00:52:15,800 --> 00:52:18,279
Speaker 2: And the football team. I mean, coach Stein came in

1252
00:52:18,320 --> 00:52:21,680
Speaker 2: with two GMS, so I mean the least Kentucky do

1253
00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:24,759
Speaker 2: is could it could get one, and hopefully it's a

1254
00:52:24,760 --> 00:52:27,439
Speaker 2: little better than Vince Marrow because I think he brought

1255
00:52:27,440 --> 00:52:30,359
Speaker 2: in Jasper Johnson in the last minute for Kentucky, so he.

1256
00:52:30,320 --> 00:52:33,560
Speaker 1: Did help with that. You know, people wondered about if

1257
00:52:33,560 --> 00:52:37,600
Speaker 1: it's Pope doesn't want a GM UK the three letter place.

1258
00:52:38,200 --> 00:52:40,000
Speaker 1: You're right, will Stein showed up with a GM and

1259
00:52:40,040 --> 00:52:41,120
Speaker 1: an assistant GM.

1260
00:52:41,360 --> 00:52:43,080
Speaker 2: I mean he was ready to go hit the ground running.

1261
00:52:43,120 --> 00:52:45,200
Speaker 2: Why why are we living in the stone age with

1262
00:52:45,280 --> 00:52:46,520
Speaker 2: the GM spot?

1263
00:52:46,640 --> 00:52:48,680
Speaker 1: They need one bad. It's obvious the best teams in

1264
00:52:48,719 --> 00:52:51,719
Speaker 1: the country have them. But I feel like we're being

1265
00:52:51,760 --> 00:52:54,200
Speaker 1: pulled by this magnetic force towards the negative town and

1266
00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:56,120
Speaker 1: we're not gonna do it. Billy Louke brought us back

1267
00:52:56,160 --> 00:52:57,840
Speaker 1: and I'm not doing it, but we need to do

1268
00:52:57,920 --> 00:52:59,040
Speaker 1: need a GM. Who's up next?

1269
00:52:59,239 --> 00:53:01,120
Speaker 2: We get two more? Billy is up next?

1270
00:53:01,200 --> 00:53:03,439
Speaker 1: Billy only positive thoughts to wrap up the show.

1271
00:53:05,320 --> 00:53:07,400
Speaker 8: Well, I think this is kind of positive. I just

1272
00:53:07,440 --> 00:53:09,080
Speaker 8: wanted to explain to the lady who went to her

1273
00:53:09,120 --> 00:53:13,040
Speaker 8: first ball game in person today about the coaches huddle.

1274
00:53:13,480 --> 00:53:17,680
Speaker 8: I had heard Mark talk about this several months ago

1275
00:53:18,160 --> 00:53:20,759
Speaker 8: about somebody had brought up the question, and he said

1276
00:53:21,160 --> 00:53:25,839
Speaker 8: he does it intentionally to give the players time to

1277
00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:29,560
Speaker 8: work out what they envisioned the problems for that are

1278
00:53:29,560 --> 00:53:32,880
Speaker 8: on the court, and that helps develop the leadership among

1279
00:53:32,960 --> 00:53:36,200
Speaker 8: themselves and communications. And then he has a coach or

1280
00:53:36,280 --> 00:53:39,040
Speaker 8: himself go over and talk to them and follow up

1281
00:53:39,160 --> 00:53:41,799
Speaker 8: make sure that they've covered all the bases, all right,

1282
00:53:42,160 --> 00:53:46,440
Speaker 8: the players to actually run that show if if they

1283
00:53:46,440 --> 00:53:49,560
Speaker 8: can recognize their own problems and work with out themselves first,

1284
00:53:50,080 --> 00:53:51,080
Speaker 8: that's that's his plan.

1285
00:53:51,560 --> 00:53:55,200
Speaker 1: Perfect. That's a great explanation. Billy, see Billy O the

1286
00:53:55,200 --> 00:53:56,799
Speaker 1: billy that's here with me right now, with you on me?

1287
00:53:56,960 --> 00:54:00,120
Speaker 1: Yeah you okay, not her Billy. Someone asked a question,

1288
00:54:00,280 --> 00:54:02,480
Speaker 1: We don't have the answer. This Billy comes through.

1289
00:54:02,760 --> 00:54:05,040
Speaker 2: I mean, that's been the best on the show right now,

1290
00:54:05,080 --> 00:54:05,959
Speaker 2: smartest fan base.

1291
00:54:07,200 --> 00:54:10,200
Speaker 8: That's because I graduated from the UK over fifty years ago,

1292
00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:15,120
Speaker 8: nineteen seventy three, so I've been around at UK graduate

1293
00:54:15,160 --> 00:54:17,120
Speaker 8: for a long time. I knew all the words one

1294
00:54:17,160 --> 00:54:18,839
Speaker 8: on the UK before I got out of high school

1295
00:54:18,840 --> 00:54:20,080
Speaker 8: in the sixties. So there you go.

1296
00:54:20,480 --> 00:54:23,480
Speaker 1: Well, maybe you should have a podcast sometimes tell some stories.

1297
00:54:23,480 --> 00:54:25,640
Speaker 1: You seem to know ball. Thank you for calling in.

1298
00:54:27,200 --> 00:54:27,960
Speaker 8: Thank you very much.

1299
00:54:28,200 --> 00:54:30,239
Speaker 1: I can't think of a better Billy that's been on

1300
00:54:30,239 --> 00:54:30,840
Speaker 1: these airwaves to.

1301
00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:33,600
Speaker 2: Well hold on now. I mean, I agree that was

1302
00:54:33,680 --> 00:54:36,400
Speaker 2: a great that was at by Billy, and if Brandon

1303
00:54:36,520 --> 00:54:39,280
Speaker 2: hadn't answered, we wouldn't have gotten Billy. So things happened

1304
00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:39,719
Speaker 2: for a reason.

1305
00:54:40,080 --> 00:54:41,320
Speaker 1: What do you think of the move of letting the

1306
00:54:41,320 --> 00:54:43,680
Speaker 1: players like a player's only meeting during the time out.

1307
00:54:44,760 --> 00:54:47,680
Speaker 2: I like that, work your problems out before the coach

1308
00:54:47,719 --> 00:54:49,239
Speaker 2: comes in and gives you the game plan for the

1309
00:54:49,239 --> 00:54:52,239
Speaker 2: next what's going to happen? I could see how that'd

1310
00:54:52,320 --> 00:54:54,040
Speaker 2: be bad at some times, but I think for the

1311
00:54:54,080 --> 00:54:56,360
Speaker 2: most part that's a that's a good concept.

1312
00:54:56,680 --> 00:54:58,120
Speaker 1: If I were in the I'd have a hard time

1313
00:54:58,239 --> 00:55:01,480
Speaker 1: staying on task. I'd be cutting up. I would need

1314
00:55:01,520 --> 00:55:03,480
Speaker 1: a coach over there in my huddle, and I can

1315
00:55:03,560 --> 00:55:06,120
Speaker 1: see what he's going for. Yeah, I get their empowerment.

1316
00:55:06,160 --> 00:55:07,759
Speaker 1: Didn't the last coach say that all the time?

1317
00:55:08,040 --> 00:55:09,319
Speaker 2: I think you did yeah, I've heard that.

1318
00:55:09,360 --> 00:55:10,200
Speaker 1: So we have one left.

1319
00:55:10,360 --> 00:55:11,200
Speaker 2: We got one call left.

1320
00:55:11,200 --> 00:55:14,480
Speaker 1: Who's what's their name, Steve, Steve, you got to bring it.

1321
00:55:14,480 --> 00:55:16,319
Speaker 1: It's been a great ending here. We had Luke fire

1322
00:55:16,400 --> 00:55:19,399
Speaker 1: us up, we had Billy drop knowledge, take us home.

1323
00:55:19,400 --> 00:55:19,839
Speaker 1: What's up?

1324
00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:25,319
Speaker 10: Well, First of all, a win is a win, and

1325
00:55:25,840 --> 00:55:28,960
Speaker 10: if you're gonna beat North Carolina and you're gonna beat Kansas,

1326
00:55:29,040 --> 00:55:30,880
Speaker 10: you got to keep piling them up so you know,

1327
00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:35,960
Speaker 10: take it when you can get it. And also, where

1328
00:55:35,960 --> 00:55:40,239
Speaker 10: would this team be without Malachi Marino. I don't think

1329
00:55:40,239 --> 00:55:44,960
Speaker 10: he gets enough credit. And if he wasn't there, we'd be,

1330
00:55:45,719 --> 00:55:47,880
Speaker 10: you know, fifty percent or less on wins.

1331
00:55:47,880 --> 00:55:48,320
Speaker 7: I think.

1332
00:55:48,800 --> 00:55:52,880
Speaker 10: So the guy is a stud. He's outperformed whatever we

1333
00:55:52,920 --> 00:55:55,320
Speaker 10: thought he might do, and he's just one hell of

1334
00:55:55,360 --> 00:55:55,800
Speaker 10: a player.

1335
00:55:56,800 --> 00:55:59,319
Speaker 1: You're exactly right. Thank you for calling in sharing that.

1336
00:55:59,360 --> 00:56:02,719
Speaker 1: It's a great way ended. Malachi has been awesome. The

1337
00:56:02,760 --> 00:56:05,640
Speaker 1: original plan early, Brandon Garrison was the starter. We know

1338
00:56:05,960 --> 00:56:08,680
Speaker 1: Malachai pretty quickly started showing that he could compete and

1339
00:56:08,680 --> 00:56:11,279
Speaker 1: eventually take those minutes becomes the starter. I feel like

1340
00:56:11,320 --> 00:56:13,880
Speaker 1: after every game we get like this. Malachi Reno is

1341
00:56:13,920 --> 00:56:16,400
Speaker 1: the first freshman since Blah blah blah. To have this

1342
00:56:16,520 --> 00:56:18,360
Speaker 1: many rebounds on the road, you know, we're getting all

1343
00:56:18,400 --> 00:56:20,839
Speaker 1: these first time things for him as a freshman, he's

1344
00:56:20,880 --> 00:56:23,200
Speaker 1: been awesome. I'm one of the people and I don't

1345
00:56:23,239 --> 00:56:24,960
Speaker 1: run from it. I watched him at Great Crossing and

1346
00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:27,239
Speaker 1: I knew he'd eventually be good, but I thought freshman

1347
00:56:27,360 --> 00:56:30,080
Speaker 1: year might not be quite ready. Just thought he need

1348
00:56:30,120 --> 00:56:31,760
Speaker 1: a little more muscle, need to get little more physical,

1349
00:56:31,800 --> 00:56:33,799
Speaker 1: and he still has to work on that. But I

1350
00:56:33,840 --> 00:56:36,400
Speaker 1: didn't see anything like we've seen from Reno and the

1351
00:56:36,440 --> 00:56:38,719
Speaker 1: callers right who knows where we'd be without him?

1352
00:56:38,960 --> 00:56:41,919
Speaker 2: Has blown our expectations out of the water. Not only

1353
00:56:41,960 --> 00:56:44,480
Speaker 2: that he had the game winner versus LSU, of course,

1354
00:56:45,040 --> 00:56:48,160
Speaker 2: and I mean, was it the first basket of the

1355
00:56:48,400 --> 00:56:51,080
Speaker 2: last game versus Auburn. He scores, he rolls his ankles

1356
00:56:51,120 --> 00:56:53,040
Speaker 2: on the court for five minutes, and he ends up

1357
00:56:53,080 --> 00:56:55,399
Speaker 2: getting up, running off the court and then coming back

1358
00:56:55,440 --> 00:56:57,680
Speaker 2: in the game. The guy's tough. And if he doesn't

1359
00:56:57,680 --> 00:56:59,719
Speaker 2: go to the NBA, I'm looking forward to a sophomore

1360
00:56:59,719 --> 00:57:01,800
Speaker 2: camp for a guy Malachai.

1361
00:57:01,760 --> 00:57:03,759
Speaker 1: And here lately he's I feel like he's been money

1362
00:57:03,800 --> 00:57:05,799
Speaker 1: at the free throw line, too, which you want this

1363
00:57:05,840 --> 00:57:07,600
Speaker 1: time of year, especially from your big guy. Four for

1364
00:57:07,680 --> 00:57:10,320
Speaker 1: fourth from tonight. I don't have past game stats in

1365
00:57:10,360 --> 00:57:11,600
Speaker 1: front of me, but I feel like if you looked

1366
00:57:11,640 --> 00:57:13,960
Speaker 1: up the last month, he's been pretty consistent at the

1367
00:57:13,960 --> 00:57:17,000
Speaker 1: line too. So yes, shout out to Malachi Mario. Great

1368
00:57:17,080 --> 00:57:19,520
Speaker 1: night tonight, almost got the double double, but got the

1369
00:57:19,520 --> 00:57:23,320
Speaker 1: eleven rebounds, two blocks. Just obvious when he's not out there,

1370
00:57:23,360 --> 00:57:24,040
Speaker 1: it's a big difference.

1371
00:57:24,160 --> 00:57:27,640
Speaker 2: Malachi Mareno is seventy for one hundred at the free

1372
00:57:27,640 --> 00:57:28,480
Speaker 2: throw line this year.

1373
00:57:29,640 --> 00:57:33,480
Speaker 1: That's seventy percent. That is, I'd say in the last month,

1374
00:57:33,480 --> 00:57:35,400
Speaker 1: it's even better. That's probably a lot to do on

1375
00:57:35,440 --> 00:57:38,080
Speaker 1: the fly, y'all. Just trust me. Billy will call him.

1376
00:57:38,080 --> 00:57:39,800
Speaker 1: Back me up other billy, the billy would like, But

1377
00:57:39,840 --> 00:57:42,040
Speaker 1: I like this Billy. It was fun. Thank you for

1378
00:57:42,320 --> 00:57:44,240
Speaker 1: let me hang with you later night, Like we should

1379
00:57:44,240 --> 00:57:46,920
Speaker 1: probably turn this off, go home. They have other shows

1380
00:57:46,920 --> 00:57:49,200
Speaker 1: they have to do. State of the Union's over Tennessee,

1381
00:57:49,240 --> 00:57:53,240
Speaker 1: Missouri's over Tacky. South Carolina's over Cats wins seventy two

1382
00:57:53,240 --> 00:57:57,520
Speaker 1: to sixty three. Staying out of that bubble conversation, We'll

1383
00:57:57,520 --> 00:58:00,480
Speaker 1: be all right. Got Vandy coming up on Saturday. Important

1384
00:58:00,480 --> 00:58:02,640
Speaker 1: games left let's win some of them. Now, let's win

1385
00:58:02,680 --> 00:58:04,400
Speaker 1: all of them. Billy, let's go three and oh, let's

1386
00:58:04,440 --> 00:58:04,760
Speaker 1: do it.

1387
00:58:04,800 --> 00:58:05,680
Speaker 2: But for now we're.

Speaker 1: Gonna celebrate this one cat's beat South Carolina for Drew,

1389
00:58:08,320 --> 00:58:10,360
Speaker 1: Billy and all our callers. Thank you all for listening.
