1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:00,760
Speaker 1: We welcome everyone.

2
00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:04,720
Speaker 2: It is the Local Toy Dealers KSR postgame show and

3
00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:09,760
Speaker 2: what is becoming sort of a familiar refrain Kentucky with

4
00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:14,880
Speaker 2: another embarrassing home loss eighty nine eighty five to Gonzaga.

5
00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 2: We will open up the phones here in just when

6
00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:20,360
Speaker 2: I'm done with this segment. It's a good way to

7
00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:23,800
Speaker 2: kind of make it random who can get in. I'm

8
00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:26,880
Speaker 2: gonna do something kind of similar to what I did

9
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:28,960
Speaker 2: last time, which is at the end of this segment,

10
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:31,720
Speaker 2: kind of let people talk, because I think the frustration

11
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:37,239
Speaker 2: that people have is completely valid and can be articulated.

12
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:41,559
Speaker 1: It was I was very very confident going into this game.

13
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:46,040
Speaker 2: If you heard the radio show yesterday, I sort of thought,

14
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:49,760
Speaker 2: you know, Gonzaga is not good and they're not This

15
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 2: is not a normal Gonzaga team. That the Gonzaga talent

16
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:55,640
Speaker 2: is not anywhere close to what it was. There are

17
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:59,120
Speaker 2: no Jalen Suggs, Chet Holmgrens, there are none of those

18
00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 2: guys on this team. This is a Nolan Hickman's decent.

19
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 2: But remember, you know he was gonna come here and

20
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:07,280
Speaker 2: he's now in his junior year. That it's not the

21
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:09,240
Speaker 2: same team. So I thought, you know you're at home,

22
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,520
Speaker 2: you get that atmosphere Kentucky fans, this is a chance

23
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:16,160
Speaker 2: to kind of turn it around. They beat Vandy, and

24
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 2: that's not only not what happened. They once again got embarrassed,

25
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:23,959
Speaker 2: and I think got embarrassed and probably the most damning

26
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 2: way yet on cal Perry that was that was almost

27
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 2: coaching malpractice out there. To watch the way that it

28
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:38,760
Speaker 2: played out, you know that it was Mark Few completely

29
00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:41,680
Speaker 2: decimated this Kentucky team and I and I'll go over

30
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:43,399
Speaker 2: a few of the things that stuck out to me.

31
00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 2: But this is now the seventh loss in the season

32
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:51,560
Speaker 2: on a team that has really an unbelievable amount of talent,

33
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:56,880
Speaker 2: and they've lost seven and they still have their two

34
00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:01,200
Speaker 2: hardest road games, two losable road games, and a game

35
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 2: against the first place team in the SEC at home

36
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 2: yet to come. They have seven road games and they

37
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 2: haven't even really gotten to the hardest part of their

38
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:12,640
Speaker 2: schedule yet. It's it's a terrible loss and you're gonna

39
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:15,120
Speaker 2: see it on Tuesday. They play Old Miss at nine

40
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 2: o'clock in RUP and I think there's gonna be a

41
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 2: lot of empty seats. I mean, I don't think it's

42
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:20,359
Speaker 2: gonna be empty. But I think there's gonna be a

43
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 2: lot of empty sets. I think there's gonna be a

44
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 2: lot of people who don't who don't go to that

45
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 2: late game after this. And you know this is we

46
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 2: talked about this on the pregame show. But this is

47
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,840
Speaker 2: the third loss in a row at home, only the

48
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 2: second time in school history. It's only the second time

49
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 2: in school history. That's embarrassing. So I'll do what I

50
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:40,960
Speaker 2: did last time. Let's talk about the micro and the

51
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 2: game and then sort of a bigger picture about the season.

52
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 2: First of all, you know cal Perry said when it

53
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,959
Speaker 2: was over, they lost that game in the first half.

54
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 2: I don't know if I totally agree with that. We

55
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 2: were up six in the second half. I mean, we

56
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 2: did come back after being down at half by ten

57
00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 2: and had a six point lead. But let me just

58
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 2: take that in face value and say, you lost it

59
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,360
Speaker 2: in the first half. Well, if you believe we lost

60
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:06,800
Speaker 2: it in the first half, we lost it because I

61
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:09,680
Speaker 2: have no idea how John cal Perry was coaching that

62
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 2: team in the first half. I want you to go

63
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 2: back if you will, actually don't go back and watch it,

64
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 2: but he probably in the first ten minutes played.

65
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 1: Nine ten different lineups.

66
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,920
Speaker 2: The shuttling back and forth of guys was unbelievable, including

67
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:28,680
Speaker 2: some lineups that literally have.

68
00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:29,960
Speaker 1: No chance of scoring.

69
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:35,520
Speaker 2: I mean, at one point he had I think Dillingham, Wagner, Burk's,

70
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 2: Theerro and Ugo. I mean, that's just not a lineup

71
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 2: that's going to score a points. It's just not And

72
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,680
Speaker 2: you had sitting on your bench. I counted Reeves and

73
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 2: Shepherd played a total combined the two of them, of

74
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,400
Speaker 2: nineteen minutes in the first half out of forty.

75
00:03:56,360 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 1: You can't do that. Reeves, Dillingham, and Shepard.

76
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 2: You could argue Reeves, Dillanem and Shepard are maybe three

77
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 2: of the best shooters we've ever had.

78
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 1: I would argue they're.

79
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 2: The best three, you know, threesome of shooting on one

80
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 2: team that Kentucky's ever had. I don't think they've ever

81
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 2: had three guys on the team at the same time

82
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:17,479
Speaker 2: who could.

83
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:18,159
Speaker 1: Shoot threes better.

84
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:22,719
Speaker 2: You want how many minutes they played together tonight, a

85
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 2: minute and a half, A minute and a half, Three

86
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 2: of the best shooters ever, one of which could be

87
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 2: an All American, one of which had twenty one points

88
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,279
Speaker 2: in the second half. And one of which will be

89
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 2: a top five to seven pick. The coach did not

90
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 2: play them together for more than a minute and a half.

91
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,880
Speaker 2: That's crazy to me, that's insanity to me when you

92
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 2: have that level of shooting to not play them And

93
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:49,599
Speaker 2: the answer is, well, they can they can't guard because

94
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 2: Gonzag was too big. Did it look like our bigs

95
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 2: could guard. Did it look like our bigs could stop them?

96
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:56,720
Speaker 1: No?

97
00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 2: So I don't understand if you think we lost it

98
00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 2: in first half. We lost it probably because cal said

99
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 2: earlier this week, I'm gonna play everybody in the first

100
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:09,839
Speaker 2: half and then play the best people in the second half.

101
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 1: Well, how about we try a game where we play

102
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:15,159
Speaker 1: the best people Billy the whole game. How about we

103
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 1: do that?

104
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 2: Because you play eleven guys in the first half, like,

105
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:22,440
Speaker 2: it's not gonna work. Guys just going in and out.

106
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,560
Speaker 2: Nobody can get in a rhythm. And not surprisingly, we

107
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:29,279
Speaker 2: couldn't make shots and we still couldn't defend it. We

108
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:31,840
Speaker 2: gave up the same amount of points essentially in the

109
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:33,880
Speaker 2: first half as the second half. I mean they got some.

110
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 2: I guess they got a little bit more at the end.

111
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 2: So they was forty two and forty seven. But the

112
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:39,480
Speaker 2: difference is we scored thirty.

113
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:43,159
Speaker 1: Two in the first half, and that is you just

114
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,920
Speaker 1: can get no rhythm. And then.

115
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:51,839
Speaker 2: The last ten minutes were an embarrassment. Mark Few did

116
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:55,839
Speaker 2: the same thing every single time down the court, and

117
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 2: we had no answer. If Ugo was in, they put

118
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,200
Speaker 2: him in a pick and roll, he could not guard it.

119
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,279
Speaker 2: Big Z is in pick and roll, can't guard it.

120
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:10,280
Speaker 2: Bradshaw's in, seal him down low score over him. We

121
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 2: never adjusted, I mean, forget about zone, just nothing else,

122
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:18,680
Speaker 2: no thought about even going small, nothing, Let's just let

123
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 2: him do it over and over and over.

124
00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:23,400
Speaker 1: And they did.

125
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,240
Speaker 2: I don't know how many possessions they scored in a row,

126
00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:29,159
Speaker 2: but I think it was like nine they scored in

127
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:33,600
Speaker 2: a row. Now, thankfully, because Shepherd and Reeves scored thirty

128
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 2: six points combined in the second half, we are able

129
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:40,800
Speaker 2: to stay in it. But you know, you gotta get

130
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:46,120
Speaker 2: at least one, which brings us to the final play.

131
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,800
Speaker 1: You know, I have no idea what that play was.

132
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 2: This is probably the worst Kentucky team throwing lobs of

133
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 2: the cal era.

134
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 1: Would you agree with that, Billy? Worst team throwing lobs

135
00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:57,840
Speaker 1: we've had.

136
00:06:58,200 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 3: There's been a lot of bad ones, that's for sure

137
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:01,279
Speaker 3: this year.

138
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 2: I mean this one that they've been terrible, and you

139
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:07,840
Speaker 2: run a lob a lob to Thiero. Look, I do

140
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 2: play great. I'm not downing Theerro. But you have again

141
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 2: on your team an All American, a top seven pick,

142
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 2: and a dude who has twenty one points in the

143
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:23,000
Speaker 2: second half. And the first option is a lob which

144
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,440
Speaker 2: we're not even good at, to a guy who's like

145
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:27,119
Speaker 2: our fifth or sixth offensive option.

146
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 1: How is that a play?

147
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,800
Speaker 2: And then if you're gonna run that play, go back

148
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:38,560
Speaker 2: and watch it. It's on social media. Ugo, why is

149
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 2: he in? Why is he in? I guess he's in

150
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 2: for the tap end, but he literally it's his man

151
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 2: that stops the lob. Ugo is standing on top of

152
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 2: where the lob is supposed to be. It's his man

153
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 2: that stops it because he's in the way.

154
00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:59,360
Speaker 1: You cannot set up a play like that.

155
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 2: Cal after the game said, I wanted it to be

156
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 2: a lob and if that wasn't there Reeves three.

157
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 1: I will live or die with Reeves or.

158
00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 2: Shepherd taking the shop and sometimes dealing him, or when

159
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:15,040
Speaker 2: Wagoner's healthy, a drive I do not want a team

160
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 2: that can't lob throwing a lob to a do that's a.

161
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 1: Terrible final play.

162
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:22,680
Speaker 2: When Gonzaga got the ball and needed to basket, what

163
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,880
Speaker 2: they do the thing that works get the big guy

164
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:31,000
Speaker 2: down low isolate score. We never adjusted and when we

165
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 2: get the ball, we're doing stuff. I don't think we've

166
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 2: run that play all year that I can remember, certainly

167
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 2: not in a key situation.

168
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 1: So you lose.

169
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 2: You also, did they end up fouling up three and win?

170
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 2: We didn't foul up three and lost. So the malpractice

171
00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:54,080
Speaker 2: of the decision against Florida plays itself out in reverse

172
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:57,600
Speaker 2: this time. You know, when the game is over, cal

173
00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:02,200
Speaker 2: Perry said, blame me, don't blame the players. Put it

174
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 2: on me. Don't put it on the players. I give

175
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:07,320
Speaker 2: him credit for saying that he's right, but it is

176
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 2: on him.

177
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:10,480
Speaker 1: This year's on him. This team should be good.

178
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,319
Speaker 2: And by the way, I kind of am tired of

179
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:17,680
Speaker 2: him saying, don't blame the players. This fan base hasn't

180
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 2: blamed the players this year. This fan base loves these players.

181
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,920
Speaker 2: They do this is the most Oscar was an extremely

182
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,520
Speaker 2: likable player. But I think you could make an argument

183
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:29,560
Speaker 2: that The fan base likes this team as much as

184
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 2: any they've liked since you know, Fox, Monk and Bam.

185
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:36,280
Speaker 2: They love them. Shepherd's from Kentucky, the way we shoot,

186
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:37,840
Speaker 2: the way we get up. Now that they love them.

187
00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 2: The complaints are towards Cal and they have been all year,

188
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,560
Speaker 2: and he continues to say, put it on me, but

189
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:50,680
Speaker 2: then he gets defensive when it is put on him,

190
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 2: and it's becoming toxic. And it's not becoming toxic because

191
00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,120
Speaker 2: of me. It's not becoming toxic because of KSR. It's

192
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,800
Speaker 2: not becoming toxic really because of the fans. It's becoming

193
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:12,080
Speaker 2: toxic because the amount of underachieving is now historic, and

194
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:17,520
Speaker 2: you know, historical perspective matters. People can say the game's changed,

195
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 2: and it has to some extent, but North Carolina went

196
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,440
Speaker 2: to Miami in one today. Kansas is gonna take care

197
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:26,280
Speaker 2: of business and win against Baylor at home today. Like

198
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,559
Speaker 2: these other teams when it comes down to it, are

199
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:33,000
Speaker 2: making the plays and we're not the Kansas game.

200
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:34,199
Speaker 1: Four minutes to go, we're up.

201
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:37,840
Speaker 2: We lose Florida game, four minutes to go up, lose

202
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:42,200
Speaker 2: A and m three minutes to go up, lose Tonight

203
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:44,040
Speaker 2: Tide four minutes to go lose.

204
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:49,000
Speaker 1: It's the same thing over and over and over.

205
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 2: I don't mean to say this every time, but we

206
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 2: do need to put it in context. In the last

207
00:10:56,360 --> 00:11:03,280
Speaker 2: four years, we've had the worst, the worst regular season

208
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:07,640
Speaker 2: in the history of the program, the worst We've had,

209
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:09,439
Speaker 2: the worst.

210
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:13,840
Speaker 1: Tournament loss in the history of the program.

211
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 2: And we now have lost three straight home games for

212
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 2: only the second time in the history of the program

213
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 2: and the first time in fifty five years. Throw in,

214
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:32,080
Speaker 2: we have three home losses to unranked teams. I don't

215
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 2: know the stats, but that can't have happened more than

216
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:41,319
Speaker 2: once or twice in history. And Cali Perry, who set

217
00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:47,200
Speaker 2: records that were historic on the good side early in

218
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 2: his career, is now setting records on the bad side

219
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 2: on the back end of his career. We can't act

220
00:11:56,280 --> 00:12:03,840
Speaker 2: like that's not happening, and can't anymore. You know, it

221
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:09,560
Speaker 2: doesn't do any good to like talk about a change today.

222
00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 2: They're going to play through the end of March, and

223
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 2: this team I still think has the talent to do something,

224
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,680
Speaker 2: you know, crazy in March. I've become less and less

225
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:22,560
Speaker 2: confident every day that'll happen. But they do have the talent,

226
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 2: but I said after the Tennessee game, it's basically now

227
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 2: to the point that March has to go well. Well,

228
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 2: you know, now I'm to the point if it doesn't

229
00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:39,319
Speaker 2: go well, you know, I just don't know how you

230
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 2: can keep doing this. I mean, the fan base has

231
00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:43,800
Speaker 2: had it. There were boos tonight. There was a time

232
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,599
Speaker 2: nobody ever booed at Reperena. There was loud boos. You

233
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 2: can hear it. You can hear it on the television.

234
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:50,240
Speaker 1: You know.

235
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 2: It's it's sad because this fan base cares more than anybody.

236
00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 1: They care this year, more than they do I.

237
00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:04,920
Speaker 2: Think in the average year, and they just continually get

238
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:10,600
Speaker 2: let down. And the path now becomes extremely difficult. Not

239
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:15,080
Speaker 2: making the tournament is in play. It's in play with

240
00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:17,160
Speaker 2: the schedule. That's left not making the tournaments in play.

241
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,720
Speaker 2: But even if you make the tournament, we're now looking

242
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 2: like six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven seed. Well, now

243
00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,440
Speaker 2: you're gonna have to pull off an upset, maybe even

244
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:31,720
Speaker 2: in your first game, certainly one or two in the

245
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:36,320
Speaker 2: first weekend. And considering this talent on this team, and

246
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,800
Speaker 2: considering what they will do, some of them at the

247
00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:44,680
Speaker 2: next level, and considering what this fan base continues to

248
00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:49,760
Speaker 2: bring nine in and nine out, it's an embarrassment. And

249
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 2: if we don't have a good march, I don't think

250
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,080
Speaker 2: it can continue.

251
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:59,040
Speaker 1: I just don't. This fan base does not deserve the

252
00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:01,040
Speaker 1: last four years. Now.

253
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:05,520
Speaker 2: Don't get me wrong, Cal Perry from twenty ten to

254
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:09,199
Speaker 2: twenty seventeen is one of the best runs, in my opinion,

255
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 2: in college basketball history.

256
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 1: They did have.

257
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:14,840
Speaker 2: You know, it'd been nice if they could win one more,

258
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,840
Speaker 2: But if you just look at the whole overarching it

259
00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:24,160
Speaker 2: was amazing. Eighteen and nineteen not amazing, but still really good.

260
00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:29,080
Speaker 2: Twenty season gets canceled and Cal and other people like

261
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:30,560
Speaker 2: to say, well, we had a shot. We did have

262
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 2: a shot, but we were a four seed that year,

263
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,600
Speaker 2: all right. I think revisionist history has us as a

264
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:38,240
Speaker 2: one seed that year. We were a four seed going

265
00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 2: into that tournament. But with all that said, I'll start

266
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:48,600
Speaker 2: at COVID. This has not been Kentucky basketball. It's not

267
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:54,560
Speaker 2: and we have to universally agree to that and universally

268
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:59,239
Speaker 2: say we got eight regular season games and a postseason

269
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,360
Speaker 2: to turn it around. We're probably gonna to do something else.

270
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:08,080
Speaker 2: I'm eighty seven we'll open up the phones and take

271
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:11,160
Speaker 2: a break. This is the Local Toy Dealers KSR post

272
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:13,640
Speaker 2: game Show.

273
00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 1: Welcome back.

274
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:25,120
Speaker 2: It is a Local Toy Dealers KSR postgame show. First

275
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 2: of all, is there anything more consistent than as soon

276
00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 2: as I make like an impassioned uh intro, then they

277
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 2: play buckle up, put.

278
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 3: Your phone right into buckle up, right into it.

279
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:37,200
Speaker 2: That's now happened two straight weeks, so I think that's

280
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:40,320
Speaker 2: going to continue to happen. I just retweeted a video

281
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:43,160
Speaker 2: that Billy just told me about. It is Tyler Ulyss's

282
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:47,360
Speaker 2: reaction during the final play draw up, and he's just

283
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 2: shaking his head. You know, we don't know what's in

284
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:55,560
Speaker 2: his head, but it looks like, hey, are we really

285
00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:59,480
Speaker 2: doing this? But I don't know if that's what he means.

286
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:01,640
Speaker 2: You know, only he would know that, and so you

287
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:05,480
Speaker 2: gotta be careful. But it is I just retweeted it. Yeah,

288
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:08,040
Speaker 2: I don't know what that last play was. But here's

289
00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 2: what But I I kinda I sort of agree with

290
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 2: cal that we lost it in the first half, but like,

291
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:14,760
Speaker 2: that's also.

292
00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:15,200
Speaker 1: Not an excuse.

293
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:18,040
Speaker 2: You said yourself that you were gonna play everybody in

294
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 2: the first half. And then play the best people in

295
00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:22,440
Speaker 2: the second half. Just pick a lineup, and that lineup

296
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:26,640
Speaker 2: should always, always, always, always have Shepherd Reeves in it,

297
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 2: and it probably ought to have Dillingham more often than not.

298
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 2: I don't hate it that he only played four minutes

299
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:34,720
Speaker 2: in the second half because we scored fifty two points,

300
00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:37,560
Speaker 2: but in those last couple of plays, I'd have him

301
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 2: in way before I throw a lob.

302
00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 1: So you know, you can't have it both ways.

303
00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:46,160
Speaker 2: I used to say about col he can't tell us

304
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 2: the regular season doesn't matter, and then when we lose

305
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 2: in March, go but we had a regular, good regular season.

306
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:53,600
Speaker 2: We can't have it both ways. You can't say we're

307
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:55,640
Speaker 2: gonna use the first half to experiment, and then when

308
00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 2: we lose, say we lost it in the first half.

309
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:03,000
Speaker 2: You gotta have a consistent standard, and that standard can't

310
00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:06,399
Speaker 2: be just continually losing to mediocre teams at home.

311
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:10,560
Speaker 3: Who's up first, Jason, Jason, what's up?

312
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:10,960
Speaker 1: Jason?

313
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:16,360
Speaker 4: Hey, good evening match coming at you from bethlen Pa

314
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:19,040
Speaker 4: out of the six O six. I gotta admit, sir,

315
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 4: I'm a little ticked off fed how everything played out

316
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:26,879
Speaker 4: Tonight's like, you know, there was a sequence where we

317
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:27,560
Speaker 4: were on a run.

318
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:28,320
Speaker 1: We were up.

319
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:31,440
Speaker 4: Six, and then we come out of the timeouts and

320
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:34,240
Speaker 4: Bradshaw and a dude were subbed out, and all of

321
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:37,240
Speaker 4: a sudden, you see Ugo and Justin Edwards in the game,

322
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:39,520
Speaker 4: and then we end up falling back behind.

323
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:43,200
Speaker 2: Now that was that was a key secrece That was

324
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:46,920
Speaker 2: a key sequence. We were up six, they send Edwards,

325
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:49,399
Speaker 2: who's been playing great, and a dude to the bench.

326
00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:51,680
Speaker 2: Then a minute later I think they sent Reeves, we

327
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:54,639
Speaker 2: put in Jordan Burke's and I can't remember who the

328
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:57,320
Speaker 2: other person is in and we go from up six

329
00:17:57,400 --> 00:17:57,960
Speaker 2: to down one.

330
00:17:58,040 --> 00:17:59,760
Speaker 1: I thought that was a key sequence in the game.

331
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:04,080
Speaker 4: Absolutely, And on top of that, at the end of

332
00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:07,600
Speaker 4: the game, it was the we like, like you mentioned

333
00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:10,560
Speaker 4: at the beginning of the show, we are the worst

334
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:14,760
Speaker 4: lobbing team known the man at this moment in time.

335
00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:17,640
Speaker 4: Why not instead of having Ugo in the game, why

336
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:19,800
Speaker 4: not throw Z or somebody in there, at least with

337
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:22,200
Speaker 4: the threat of him being able to shoot a three

338
00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:25,320
Speaker 4: pointer and pull everybody out and let somebody drive it

339
00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:27,119
Speaker 4: to the hole and maybe kick it out for a

340
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:30,520
Speaker 4: three like you mentioned, Like I'm just I'm out on

341
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:32,919
Speaker 4: cow like I'm always looking for a silver.

342
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:35,120
Speaker 1: Lining with Cal. But I gotta admit a homie.

343
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:38,919
Speaker 4: I'm out. I'm out on Cal. He something needs to happen.

344
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:41,480
Speaker 4: It needs to happen, my friends. I love you, guys,

345
00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:43,640
Speaker 4: love the show. I'll talk to you soon.

346
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:47,199
Speaker 1: Appreciate the call. Yeah, I don't know why. I mean,

347
00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 1: UGO's in there.

348
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,680
Speaker 2: I'm sure to get a tip in, but like he's

349
00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:53,280
Speaker 2: in the way right there, wouldn't you have rather had

350
00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:55,919
Speaker 2: dialing him? I mean, I don't know how in that

351
00:18:56,400 --> 00:19:00,920
Speaker 2: last possession you don't have Dillingham, Shepherd and Reeves in

352
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:06,399
Speaker 2: and just just clear out your whole career. You've cleared

353
00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:08,600
Speaker 2: people out and gone to the basket. Now you have

354
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:10,800
Speaker 2: a team full of guys to do it, and we're

355
00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:13,160
Speaker 2: running a lob of maybe the worst lob team we've

356
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:13,640
Speaker 2: ever had.

357
00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:16,600
Speaker 1: I don't get it. Who's there? Yeah, Rob?

358
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:18,040
Speaker 3: Four minutes in the second half.

359
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:21,120
Speaker 2: I mean, okay, let me just I don't think that's

360
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:26,800
Speaker 2: terrible because we scored fifty two points. But I don't

361
00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:29,679
Speaker 2: understand why wasn't it at the very end? You know,

362
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:33,119
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't get it. I also don't understand

363
00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:35,320
Speaker 2: why we kept throwing bigs out there to just get

364
00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:37,840
Speaker 2: sealed up one on one for eight straight minutes.

365
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:40,960
Speaker 3: Who's next, Alex, Alex, go.

366
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:45,879
Speaker 5: Ahead, Alex hey Man. So, first off, the aarra was amazing.

367
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,720
Speaker 5: Tonight Red redeemed himself completely in the second half. Ugo

368
00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:50,679
Speaker 5: should not be on the court in the last five minutes.

369
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:52,919
Speaker 5: If you were in the section twenty seven where I was,

370
00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:55,040
Speaker 5: you could hear me screaming at Cow about Hugo the

371
00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:57,440
Speaker 5: whole game. How he should have taken him out after

372
00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:00,040
Speaker 5: the first three minutes when he was playing terrible. It

373
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:03,120
Speaker 5: really creates no offense. It's coaching now practice to play

374
00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:05,720
Speaker 5: a slow seven footer who can't shoot and gets beat

375
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:08,119
Speaker 5: on every pick and roll. We just have to play small.

376
00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 5: And then I'm just really disappointed the way this season

377
00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:15,159
Speaker 5: is gone. And I think Cal is the most arrogant,

378
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:18,119
Speaker 5: stubborn person I've ever seen. And someone needs to tell

379
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:20,320
Speaker 5: him that to his face, because it just he has

380
00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:23,520
Speaker 5: no humility, none, and it drives me nuts. And then

381
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:25,560
Speaker 5: the last, my last thing, Matt is everyone who is

382
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:27,560
Speaker 5: hate listening to this right now needs to hear this

383
00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:30,320
Speaker 5: that it makes me so mad when people act like

384
00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:32,840
Speaker 5: you're the reason we are all mad at Cal and

385
00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:35,560
Speaker 5: we are down on the program. It's not you. I

386
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:37,679
Speaker 5: know that you would love to eat your words and

387
00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:40,000
Speaker 5: for this season to turn around like in twenty fourteen.

388
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:42,439
Speaker 5: But people just hate the truth, I guess, and I

389
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:45,920
Speaker 5: don't understand why. So that's really all I've got. Gun

390
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:48,159
Speaker 5: Zach just got twenty two percent from three and they

391
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 5: had one more turnover than a seven.

392
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:54,240
Speaker 1: Thanks appreciate the Cal. See that's the twenty two from three.

393
00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:56,360
Speaker 1: I mean, why why.

394
00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:58,720
Speaker 2: Don't we You know, normally I don't love double teaming

395
00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:00,600
Speaker 2: the guys down low and giving up threes, but.

396
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,600
Speaker 1: They were shooting twenty two percent from three.

397
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:06,800
Speaker 2: Maybe throw a double team occasionally because our dudes were

398
00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 2: getting destroyed. As far as the blaming me, it stinks,

399
00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:17,159
Speaker 2: it does, but I also know, like I don't have

400
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:20,120
Speaker 2: anything to do with this. I'm just expressing my opinion,

401
00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 2: which is a lot of people agree, and if people disagree,

402
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,080
Speaker 2: that's fine. I'm not gonna say it doesn't suck. It

403
00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:27,840
Speaker 2: does when people come at you like you talked about

404
00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:33,280
Speaker 2: their mother. But that's not why we're losing. And I

405
00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:37,760
Speaker 2: said this at the Tennessee game. Here's the fact these

406
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 2: players will all come and go, the coaches will all

407
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 2: come and go. The only thing that remains are the fans,

408
00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:50,480
Speaker 2: and when they go with each other, that's such a waste.

409
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:54,000
Speaker 2: Like we all want the same thing, which is to win.

410
00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 2: Who's next, Ran, Randy, what's up, Randy?

411
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,200
Speaker 6: I don't understand part of the fan base. I mean,

412
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,160
Speaker 6: here's what I saw. You tell me if I'm wrong. Man,

413
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:13,080
Speaker 6: I saw for seven minutes Bradshaw getting destroyed in the center.

414
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 7: Destroyed, and I'm yelling, put you Kuna back in. We

415
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:19,359
Speaker 7: don't need him for offense, but we need him for

416
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:22,199
Speaker 7: deep some defense. I mean, he doesn't have the bucket

417
00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:26,159
Speaker 7: every shot, but I mean Bradshaw and one time he

418
00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:30,320
Speaker 7: got Sprout around, he was guarding the guy two feet

419
00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:30,960
Speaker 7: from the dog.

420
00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:35,479
Speaker 2: Also, the thing though about Hugo is that they were

421
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 2: putting him in a high pick and roll and his

422
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:38,520
Speaker 2: man was just scoring.

423
00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:41,680
Speaker 7: So absolutely get it twice.

424
00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:44,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, So you know, that's why you probably need to

425
00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:46,919
Speaker 2: That's why you probably need to play zone, which Cow

426
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:48,240
Speaker 2: will never do, or.

427
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:51,560
Speaker 1: Just go I'm yelling, Uber Small.

428
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 2: I mean, there was a part of me that wanted

429
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:57,199
Speaker 2: to say, you go, Uber Small, play three guards, Edwards

430
00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:59,560
Speaker 2: and Thierro and I'll take my chances because the bigs

431
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:00,679
Speaker 2: are certain not working.

432
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:04,480
Speaker 7: But when they threw look, their big guy had four

433
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:07,840
Speaker 7: fouls on him from seven minutes on. As soon as

434
00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:10,560
Speaker 7: they put you go back in the game, he got

435
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,879
Speaker 7: his fifth foul. And it wasn't a great hall, but

436
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:17,040
Speaker 7: he got his fifth foul. But also they weren't able

437
00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:19,399
Speaker 7: to just shoot it from two feet as soon as

438
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:22,960
Speaker 7: they put him back in. And Mike deal was, don't

439
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:26,080
Speaker 7: chase that, let him shoot the three. They're not shooting. Well,

440
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:29,200
Speaker 7: don't chase it with your big guy guard the rim.

441
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:33,200
Speaker 7: But Bradshaw doesn't help you at the rim. Look you

442
00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:36,200
Speaker 7: in the offense. I mean for seven men. If they

443
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:40,119
Speaker 7: scored I think it was eighteen points with Bradshaw in

444
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 7: the game, and we now granted we matched them to

445
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,639
Speaker 7: stay in the game. But my god, that you can't

446
00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 7: win that way.

447
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:48,400
Speaker 2: You can't wait like that. No, you're right, you're right,

448
00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:50,520
Speaker 2: you're right. I appreciate it. Call we did. I mean,

449
00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:53,800
Speaker 2: Reeves and Shepherd scored thirty six points combined in the

450
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:57,240
Speaker 2: second half, or we lose that game by fifteen. Let's

451
00:23:57,240 --> 00:24:00,280
Speaker 2: be real. They both played. Reid played amazing in the

452
00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:04,200
Speaker 2: second half. I also don't understand why those guys. I mean,

453
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:07,480
Speaker 2: in the first half he played nine minutes, Reeves played

454
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:12,560
Speaker 2: eleven minutes. I just when you watch great teams, their

455
00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:15,480
Speaker 2: best guys are in the game. Watch Kansas one hundred.

456
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:16,600
Speaker 2: Dickinson's in the game.

457
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:22,760
Speaker 1: Always, right, Our dudes, you have no idea who's gonna

458
00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:28,440
Speaker 1: play in any given moment. You have no idea. It's crazy.

459
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 1: Who's next?

460
00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:29,719
Speaker 3: Brian?

461
00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:33,360
Speaker 1: Brian? What's up? Brian Man?

462
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:34,120
Speaker 7: First time?

463
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:34,680
Speaker 8: Long time?

464
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:36,160
Speaker 1: Who?

465
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 7: Hey man?

466
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,480
Speaker 9: I want to know who your first three calls is?

467
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:41,399
Speaker 8: Will we finally running?

468
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:41,760
Speaker 10: Mateler?

469
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:44,640
Speaker 11: Well?

470
00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:47,439
Speaker 2: I mean if they if he were to leave or

471
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:49,720
Speaker 2: be or let go, Scott Drew will be the.

472
00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:50,480
Speaker 1: Next coach here?

473
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:52,760
Speaker 8: Do you think?

474
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:52,879
Speaker 12: So?

475
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:55,480
Speaker 1: I would bet a lot on it.

476
00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:57,600
Speaker 2: I mean, but then again, I bet a lot on

477
00:24:57,680 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 2: Kentucky tonight we lost. So I mean, I'm not saying,

478
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,960
Speaker 2: you know, I can be wrong, but I think I

479
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:05,800
Speaker 2: would bet a substantial amount of money Scott Drew.

480
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:06,680
Speaker 1: Would be the higher.

481
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 9: So you don't think that at all?

482
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:14,359
Speaker 2: Now, Mitch Barnard will never hire Bruce Pearl, He'll never

483
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:18,960
Speaker 2: hire Nato Oates, He'll never hire Muscle, He'll never hire

484
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:19,880
Speaker 2: Chris Beard.

485
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:22,080
Speaker 1: Now. I mean, you know, people say, well.

486
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,360
Speaker 2: You would have never hired Col, but that was different

487
00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:27,160
Speaker 2: because there were other factors that play there that maybe

488
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:28,440
Speaker 2: we can talk about some other times.

489
00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:31,360
Speaker 8: Awesome, appreciate it, Thank.

490
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:32,720
Speaker 1: You appreciate it. Yeah.

491
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:36,600
Speaker 2: No, I mean, here's one of the things about you know,

492
00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:40,080
Speaker 2: Cal's kind of his persona, which at times has been awesome.

493
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:47,200
Speaker 2: Here is there is definitely Col fatigue around UK athletics.

494
00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 2: They're just is like, I think people are kind of

495
00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:52,639
Speaker 2: tired of having a dude who won't listen to anybody

496
00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:55,520
Speaker 2: in the athletics department, like, so they're not going to

497
00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:58,560
Speaker 2: hire another person like that. In my opinion, maybe I'll

498
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:01,960
Speaker 2: be proven wrong, but I would be very very surprised.

499
00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:02,720
Speaker 1: Who's next?

500
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:04,320
Speaker 3: Darren in Texas?

501
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:05,680
Speaker 1: Darren, go ahead, Darren.

502
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:08,600
Speaker 13: Hey, Matt, what's up?

503
00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 12: Man?

504
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:13,399
Speaker 13: A long time, in a very long time. Just just

505
00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:17,479
Speaker 13: shaking my head in disappointment, like everybody, you know, I

506
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:22,080
Speaker 13: always just go back to the lifetime contracts. It's just

507
00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:26,440
Speaker 13: there's there's nobody in the world, whether you're in sports,

508
00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:31,480
Speaker 13: whether you're in business, where you can underachieve like this

509
00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:36,120
Speaker 13: and still have a job, you know what I mean. Uh,

510
00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:38,720
Speaker 13: it's just it's mind blowing to me that. And uh,

511
00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:41,320
Speaker 13: And I wanted to ask you a question if you

512
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:46,200
Speaker 13: had one word to describe the cal era and you

513
00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:50,080
Speaker 13: can't use underachieve or disappointing or something.

514
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:56,600
Speaker 1: I know, I don't know about one word, you know.

515
00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:59,639
Speaker 2: First of all, let me give two caveats. One is

516
00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:02,040
Speaker 2: it's not over right. If they make a run to

517
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:05,560
Speaker 2: the final four, this will all look different. But and

518
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:09,200
Speaker 2: I appreciate the call. I think you are a hater

519
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:13,320
Speaker 2: if you don't applaud what his first decade was like here,

520
00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:20,359
Speaker 2: you're a hater. I think you are unrealistic and a

521
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,520
Speaker 2: dreamer if you don't say the last four years have

522
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:24,320
Speaker 2: been a disaster.

523
00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:27,200
Speaker 1: Who's up next?

524
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 3: Let's go to Jim.

525
00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:32,320
Speaker 1: Jim. What's up? Jim?

526
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:33,760
Speaker 14: Hello, man, how are you?

527
00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:34,800
Speaker 1: I'm good?

528
00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:44,000
Speaker 14: I remember Rick's first here. We never lost a home game.

529
00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:50,440
Speaker 14: We weren't fourteen and fourteen, but never lost a home game. Yeah,

530
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:53,080
Speaker 14: and now we've lost three in a row.

531
00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:57,080
Speaker 2: Let me tell you a staff that Corey Price just

532
00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:59,320
Speaker 2: sent me. Corey Price just sent me this step from

533
00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:01,920
Speaker 2: ov use pay per view going on right now.

534
00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:04,280
Speaker 1: We have lost three games.

535
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:08,040
Speaker 2: We have lost three games at home to unranked teams

536
00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:14,840
Speaker 2: three of the last four seasons, at home to unranked

537
00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:17,879
Speaker 2: teams three of the last four years. It's only happened

538
00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:20,359
Speaker 2: seven times in history, and it's happened three times in

539
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:21,359
Speaker 2: the last four years.

540
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:28,439
Speaker 14: I know, I hate it, but I'm gonna be on

541
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:33,879
Speaker 14: the side of I'm not ready for a new cold

542
00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:34,880
Speaker 14: chit uk.

543
00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:39,000
Speaker 2: Okay, I understand. Well, listen, thank you, sir. I appreciate it.

544
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:42,760
Speaker 3: Who's up next, Let's go to Brett Brett.

545
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:46,080
Speaker 1: What's up? Brett? Hey, Matt, how are you doing good?

546
00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:49,400
Speaker 15: You know the one you know we talk about in

547
00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:51,680
Speaker 15: game adjustments, different things like that, and we know he's

548
00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:54,120
Speaker 15: not going to change in game. You know, my question

549
00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:55,840
Speaker 15: is does he even have a game plan going in?

550
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:57,760
Speaker 15: You know how many times before you even get to

551
00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:01,560
Speaker 15: under sixteen, we're down ten or two, twelve points. It's

552
00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:03,520
Speaker 15: just it's it's sad to watch.

553
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:03,880
Speaker 16: You know.

554
00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,840
Speaker 15: He's taken a program that you know, I've loved since

555
00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:09,840
Speaker 15: I was four and five years old, would take naps

556
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:13,040
Speaker 15: to stay up at eleven o'clock and martch the replays.

557
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:15,680
Speaker 15: He just made a mockery of it and he's made

558
00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:19,040
Speaker 15: it well. I don't even enjoy watching anymore, just because

559
00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:19,720
Speaker 15: I know, like.

560
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:22,480
Speaker 2: You've enjoyed this team, right, Like I actually think this

561
00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:26,600
Speaker 2: team has been really really fun Like but now listen,

562
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,000
Speaker 2: these last few games have been awful, but haven't you

563
00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:30,320
Speaker 2: enjoyed the group.

564
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:30,600
Speaker 1: As a whole.

565
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:35,040
Speaker 15: Yeah, they actually have got me. They got me off

566
00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:37,560
Speaker 15: the ledge over the past couple of years what I've watched,

567
00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 15: but I know, under four minutes, if we're if we're

568
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:46,720
Speaker 15: up less than four points, we're losing trouble. And that's

569
00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:49,640
Speaker 15: and that's what and that's what bothers me. And you know,

570
00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:52,239
Speaker 15: it's just it's hard to watch someone that makes that

571
00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:55,480
Speaker 15: much money not be able to make any sort of

572
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:57,680
Speaker 15: adjustments and done it as long as he's done it,

573
00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:00,760
Speaker 15: to not have any sort of gameplay. And he ran

574
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:05,360
Speaker 15: that little back door lob that he put in his

575
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:08,120
Speaker 15: back pocket because it worked once in Vandy, so he

576
00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:10,800
Speaker 15: put in his back pocket to use again. You know,

577
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:13,240
Speaker 15: it's just sad to watch. And you know, we always

578
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:15,880
Speaker 15: talk about, and we get made fun of by Cardinal

579
00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:18,640
Speaker 15: fans that Kenny won those games. While I sit here

580
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:21,240
Speaker 15: and go maybe John Robick won those games.

581
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:23,640
Speaker 2: And if I was kind of X and O, certainly

582
00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:27,479
Speaker 2: the X and os certainly suffered when he left, you know,

583
00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:30,120
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't think there's any doubt about that,

584
00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:33,120
Speaker 2: you know, I whether or not. And I appreciate the

585
00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:36,040
Speaker 2: call guys since then, Like you know, I just don't know.

586
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:37,840
Speaker 2: I mean, I was around a lot more during the

587
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 2: Robic years. So it's hard for me to say, Okay,

588
00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:42,680
Speaker 2: this is different now than then because I'm not around

589
00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:46,240
Speaker 2: right now. But those first ten years, I was around

590
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:49,240
Speaker 2: a lot, and Robic was the X and ogame. Robick

591
00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:52,960
Speaker 2: literally presented the game plan to the team before the

592
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:57,719
Speaker 2: game most of the time. And I, you know, Robiic

593
00:30:57,880 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 2: is a prickly fellow, but I always.

594
00:30:59,480 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 1: Was a maid.

595
00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:01,280
Speaker 2: A couple of times I got to hear it. I

596
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:02,600
Speaker 2: mean I didn't get here in every game, but I

597
00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:04,800
Speaker 2: heard it two or three times over the course of tenure.

598
00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:07,960
Speaker 2: It was always amazing, like how the detail he knew

599
00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:10,800
Speaker 2: and he had a really good ability to take hours

600
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:12,960
Speaker 2: of game prep and distill it into five minutes for

601
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:14,480
Speaker 2: the guys because that's all they're gonna listen to.

602
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:20,280
Speaker 1: And yeah, I do think we suffered since then. Who's next, Josh, Josh,

603
00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:22,240
Speaker 1: what's up? Josh?

604
00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:22,880
Speaker 3: Hey, what's up?

605
00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:24,040
Speaker 1: Matt? Look?

606
00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:27,680
Speaker 17: I was with you like all these past couple of years,

607
00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:30,880
Speaker 17: being like, you know, don't fire col whatever, and I'm

608
00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:33,760
Speaker 17: kind of here now, I'm kind of like, look like

609
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,560
Speaker 17: this is it for me, Like I've watched too many

610
00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:38,840
Speaker 17: games at home get lost, like three games a roads.

611
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 17: It really is. And I'm sitting here, I'm sitting outside.

612
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:48,640
Speaker 17: I'm from Alabama and basketball is a wasteland around here,

613
00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:52,360
Speaker 17: and they've been.

614
00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:54,120
Speaker 13: No.

615
00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:57,560
Speaker 17: I agree. I agree with you, and it's it's insufferable

616
00:31:57,600 --> 00:31:59,160
Speaker 17: because I live in Alabama and I have to hear

617
00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:01,520
Speaker 17: all these Alabama fas you know, talk about, you know,

618
00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:03,520
Speaker 17: how good they are at football, and then talk about

619
00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:05,560
Speaker 17: how good they are at basketball. I was like, yeah,

620
00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:06,360
Speaker 17: you're right, and.

621
00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:11,120
Speaker 2: Y'all don't even care, right, Yeah, yeah care, but they

622
00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:11,920
Speaker 2: don't be to.

623
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:14,200
Speaker 1: Drive the wall.

624
00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:16,920
Speaker 17: And I agree with your stuff on Twitter. You said

625
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:21,400
Speaker 17: earlier about all cow like he just constantly like they

626
00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:24,520
Speaker 17: switched up the lineups, like he doesn't he doesn't let

627
00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:27,520
Speaker 17: anyone get hot or do anything like they're.

628
00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:29,040
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, they're just guys who have a There

629
00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:30,520
Speaker 2: are guys who have a shorter leash.

630
00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:31,640
Speaker 1: I mean, let's just face it.

631
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:33,000
Speaker 2: And I appreciate the call if you were to go

632
00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:34,760
Speaker 2: back and watch the first half, and I don't encourage it.

633
00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:37,480
Speaker 1: I watched him because I would watch the sideline.

634
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:40,440
Speaker 2: Reeves and Reed did not play great, but they wouldn't

635
00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:43,960
Speaker 2: make a mistake and they were out immediately. Reeves and Reed,

636
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:47,320
Speaker 2: you're two. I think you could argue your two best shooters,

637
00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:50,360
Speaker 2: along with Dillingham, two of your three best players out.

638
00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:52,520
Speaker 2: Some of the big guys and some of the other

639
00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:55,440
Speaker 2: dudes could sit there, mess up time after time, still play.

640
00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:59,800
Speaker 1: I don't get it. You gotta let shooters cook.

641
00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:02,720
Speaker 2: You know, in the start of the second half, both

642
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:05,960
Speaker 2: Reeves and Reed, Shepherd made a bad play.

643
00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:09,880
Speaker 1: He kept them in and then they went off. You

644
00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:13,840
Speaker 1: gotta let dudes like that cook. And I don't.

645
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:17,680
Speaker 2: I don't get it. It was seventy five, seventy five

646
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:21,880
Speaker 2: with four minutes to go, and I remember thinking two

647
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 2: stops will win.

648
00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:27,400
Speaker 1: We got one, then we lost.

649
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:31,040
Speaker 2: We'll take a break A five nine twenty two eighty seven,

650
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:34,080
Speaker 2: We'll come back. It's the Local Toy Dealers KSR postgame show.

651
00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:41,400
Speaker 2: Well the back, it's the Local toid Dealers KSR post

652
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:45,920
Speaker 2: game show. We took seventeen threes tonight. I think if

653
00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:47,720
Speaker 2: you go back and you look at these games we lost.

654
00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:51,120
Speaker 2: One of the consistent common themes is that we always

655
00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:53,239
Speaker 2: only take like fifteen to seventeen threes, but then when

656
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:57,440
Speaker 2: we win, we take like twenty five. Reeves and Shepherd

657
00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:02,200
Speaker 2: combined to take five. You know, I think they're two

658
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:05,080
Speaker 2: of the best shooters will have. Dillingham took three, so

659
00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:07,160
Speaker 2: we took eight between those three. I think that number

660
00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:12,360
Speaker 2: probably needs to be eleven or twelve. Uh, but I

661
00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:15,760
Speaker 2: will say Gonzaga did exactly what they wanted. Five guys

662
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:20,560
Speaker 2: in double figures, and uh just pounded us. And they

663
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:22,160
Speaker 2: really only played.

664
00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:25,800
Speaker 1: See this is Kenzaka. We played five guys most of

665
00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:26,120
Speaker 1: the game.

666
00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:29,200
Speaker 2: When the big guy Ek or whatever it got in

667
00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:32,120
Speaker 2: foul trouble, they brought in huff. But besides that, they

668
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 2: basically played the same five pretty much the whole game.

669
00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:40,279
Speaker 2: We played ten guys, and it was you never knew

670
00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:43,319
Speaker 2: who was gonna be it, and it looked like at

671
00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:47,080
Speaker 2: the end we wore them down. Billy, I don't think so.

672
00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:48,600
Speaker 2: So I don't know what playing all those guys did

673
00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:48,840
Speaker 2: for us.

674
00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:51,279
Speaker 18: Kentucky's got three big guys, but they all three have

675
00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:53,600
Speaker 18: their flaws, you know, what I mean, so your laws.

676
00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:58,320
Speaker 2: Now, if we had had Mitchell, maybe you go small

677
00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:00,879
Speaker 2: with Mitchell, but I I don't even think I would

678
00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:01,239
Speaker 2: have done that.

679
00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:04,200
Speaker 1: I mean, that was how we played this entire year.

680
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:05,840
Speaker 2: And then all of a sudden, when the seven footers

681
00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:08,520
Speaker 2: got here, we just completely went away from everything we did.

682
00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:12,760
Speaker 1: We almost beat Kansas playing like that should have beat.

683
00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:16,160
Speaker 2: Him, and we've just gone away from You never see

684
00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:20,880
Speaker 2: that lineup. You never see Mitchell at the five, So

685
00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:22,920
Speaker 2: he is what it is? Who's next?

686
00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:23,400
Speaker 3: DJ?

687
00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:25,080
Speaker 1: DJ? What's up?

688
00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:28,520
Speaker 12: Hey, Matt, Hey, Billy, God, bless you guys. First of all,

689
00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:33,080
Speaker 12: i'd like to say that thank you, Yes sir, you

690
00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:35,080
Speaker 12: got you already mentioned about the rhythm things, so I'm

691
00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:37,480
Speaker 12: not gonna get into all that. But and if you

692
00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:39,640
Speaker 12: if you start from the COVID year, you know, we've

693
00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:42,759
Speaker 12: had all this awesome talent in the NBA. It's like

694
00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:46,000
Speaker 12: he's not developing. Coach Cow's not developing our players to

695
00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:49,239
Speaker 12: their full potential. And it's just frustrating. I know, I

696
00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:51,040
Speaker 12: don't have enough time to say everything I want to say,

697
00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:53,520
Speaker 12: but that's my main thing. What is your opinion on that?

698
00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:56,600
Speaker 12: And we got to do better on defense, like I

699
00:35:56,640 --> 00:35:58,960
Speaker 12: know we can score better than anybody in the in

700
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:00,560
Speaker 12: the whole country, but if we can't play a little

701
00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:02,640
Speaker 12: bit of defense, it's not gonna mount to anything.

702
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:04,920
Speaker 1: Thank you so much. We're gonna be able to play

703
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:06,640
Speaker 1: much better, but I appreciate the call.

704
00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:09,600
Speaker 2: Part of what's frustrating me about this team is you

705
00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:11,920
Speaker 2: and I both know Rob Dillingham, Billy's gonna be an

706
00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:13,359
Speaker 2: All Star one day, wait and see.

707
00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:13,960
Speaker 1: He will.

708
00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:16,680
Speaker 2: He's gonna end up being one of the most popular

709
00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:18,839
Speaker 2: players in the league. I don't know if he's gonna

710
00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:20,520
Speaker 2: be one of the best because he can't guard anybody,

711
00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:22,960
Speaker 2: but he's gonna be one of the most popular players

712
00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:25,080
Speaker 2: in the league. And he's gonna be an All Star,

713
00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:30,160
Speaker 2: and we're all gonna go col played him four minutes

714
00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:33,080
Speaker 2: in the Gonzagg again. Yes, second half. I mean we are.

715
00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:36,759
Speaker 2: He's gonna be great. Reeves is gonna have an NBA career.

716
00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:38,319
Speaker 2: I don't know how good it'll be, but he'll have it.

717
00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:39,200
Speaker 2: Shepherd will have.

718
00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:41,360
Speaker 1: One, you know.

719
00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:46,520
Speaker 2: I don't know about Bradshaw. Wagner will have one. You know,

720
00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:48,719
Speaker 2: Bradshaw at one point was the number one prospect in

721
00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:52,320
Speaker 2: the class. I don't say this very much Billy about

722
00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:55,840
Speaker 2: guys because sometimes you know things just don't. I don't

723
00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:59,040
Speaker 2: see it with him. I mean I see him he

724
00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:01,239
Speaker 2: can I think, be a much better player than he is.

725
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:07,400
Speaker 2: But like I see why scouts like Justin Edwards and

726
00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:09,239
Speaker 2: I think he's gonna He's played better in the last

727
00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:09,840
Speaker 2: couple of games.

728
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:13,160
Speaker 1: Really, I don't see it with Bradshaw, do you.

729
00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:15,600
Speaker 18: I mean, I like his energy, but like he's he's

730
00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:17,160
Speaker 18: got to beef up a little bit, don't you think

731
00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:19,799
Speaker 18: maybe a little too skinny, gets beaten in the post, he.

732
00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:24,280
Speaker 2: Can't handle the ball, he gets bullied on the post.

733
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:25,520
Speaker 1: And he can shoot.

734
00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:27,960
Speaker 2: I mean, he hit that shot against Florida, but that

735
00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:30,279
Speaker 2: three he took tonight was not good.

736
00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:32,360
Speaker 1: So I don't know. I mean, I.

737
00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:36,160
Speaker 2: Hope, but I normally, even if a dude isn't like

738
00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:40,600
Speaker 2: take scal he was not good. But I could see

739
00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:43,560
Speaker 2: how like there was potential for him to be good.

740
00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:46,120
Speaker 2: I mean, I think Bradshaw can be good, but the

741
00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:48,919
Speaker 2: idea that he's like I just don't see the sort

742
00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:52,960
Speaker 2: of uber talent. But maybe it'll come. I don't know,

743
00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:54,120
Speaker 2: I hope it does. We need it to.

744
00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:55,000
Speaker 1: Who's next.

745
00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:56,640
Speaker 3: He also picked up two fouls in a matter of

746
00:37:56,719 --> 00:37:58,839
Speaker 3: six so quick.

747
00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:01,920
Speaker 1: I mean fouls. He he foul so quick.

748
00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:03,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, Michael's next.

749
00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:07,839
Speaker 19: Michael, go ahead, Michael, Hey, Matt, you hit the nail

750
00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:09,640
Speaker 19: on the head, you know. But thinking with Shephard, he

751
00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:12,600
Speaker 19: can make a bad pass, but that kid will come back.

752
00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:17,320
Speaker 19: What he got a block, got the block back, drove down,

753
00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:21,160
Speaker 19: lay up, foul, three point play.

754
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:23,040
Speaker 1: He made a bad pass when that happened.

755
00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:27,080
Speaker 19: So that right there can tell you that if you

756
00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:29,080
Speaker 19: just stick with him, he's going to make plays for you.

757
00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:33,560
Speaker 19: And I have never seen col even in his Massachusetts years,

758
00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:37,840
Speaker 19: have a last second lob play like that.

759
00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:39,239
Speaker 1: That is just I was.

760
00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:44,879
Speaker 19: I was rolling in on the floor, and why can't

761
00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:48,360
Speaker 19: they just drive like they were doing the whole second half?

762
00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:51,840
Speaker 19: Reid was driving the ball every single time. If he

763
00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:55,480
Speaker 19: misses it, guess what Thierra was doing dunking it on

764
00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:56,399
Speaker 19: the other side of it.

765
00:38:57,680 --> 00:38:58,760
Speaker 1: So if you want to live.

766
00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:02,440
Speaker 2: They did they when they were driving. When when Shepherd

767
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:05,359
Speaker 2: and Reeves were driving to the basket, I actually thought

768
00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:08,480
Speaker 2: what they did where they both miss layups. But they

769
00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:11,280
Speaker 2: did what cal I always used to see teaching practice,

770
00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:13,120
Speaker 2: which is just don't get your shot blocked.

771
00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,480
Speaker 1: Right, because I'll have people on the other side to rebound.

772
00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:18,200
Speaker 2: And they did that on back to back layups where

773
00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:20,279
Speaker 2: both Shepard and Reeves missed it, but there was a

774
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:22,640
Speaker 2: guy on the back end because dudes doubled off them.

775
00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:25,040
Speaker 2: That's probably why we ought to penetrate a little bit more,

776
00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:27,719
Speaker 2: because you're right, you can get those backside rebounds.

777
00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:29,680
Speaker 1: Did Reed not score.

778
00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:32,640
Speaker 19: Like ten layups? Like ten points in layups?

779
00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:36,480
Speaker 2: I mean, well he had one, he had twenty one points.

780
00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:39,279
Speaker 2: One of them was a jumper he had. He was

781
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:41,880
Speaker 2: eight for fourteen from the field. I'd say six or

782
00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:43,160
Speaker 2: seven of them were probably layups.

783
00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:45,960
Speaker 19: I mean, so if you've been doing that for the

784
00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 19: like the last six seven minutes of the game, why

785
00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:51,840
Speaker 19: get away from it. But I don't get it. But

786
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:54,279
Speaker 19: you know what, here's the last point I have. He

787
00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:56,960
Speaker 19: has always said, I don't really care about the SEC tournament.

788
00:39:56,960 --> 00:39:59,120
Speaker 19: I don't really care about the SEC tournament. Well you

789
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:01,319
Speaker 19: better care because that might be the only thing that

790
00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:02,320
Speaker 19: gets you in the tournament.

791
00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:05,120
Speaker 2: Well, I mean that would be amazing if like it

792
00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:07,120
Speaker 2: all came down to Nashville.

793
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:08,600
Speaker 1: I appreciate the call.

794
00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:10,680
Speaker 2: I mean, I can tell you if you go look

795
00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:14,160
Speaker 2: at the Nashville Tournament prizes and all that, like they

796
00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:16,680
Speaker 2: were expecting a good Kentucky team to come down there.

797
00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:20,080
Speaker 2: We'll see how it ends up. But you know, I thought,

798
00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:23,160
Speaker 2: if you heard the pregame show, Drew said that Steven Peak,

799
00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:25,000
Speaker 2: who does a lot of our video stuff for KSR,

800
00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:29,360
Speaker 2: had something that I thought was a good standard at Kentucky.

801
00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:33,240
Speaker 2: You have to do one of three things. You either

802
00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:36,560
Speaker 2: have to win the regular season in the SEC, win

803
00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:41,640
Speaker 2: the SEC Tournament, or get to an Elite eight. Okay,

804
00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:45,279
Speaker 2: since COVID, we've done none of those. One of them's

805
00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:48,600
Speaker 2: pretty much already out the regular season this year, so

806
00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:51,080
Speaker 2: we'll see what happens with the SEC Tournament in the

807
00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:54,520
Speaker 2: Elite eight. But we haven't done any of those things

808
00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:58,600
Speaker 2: in the last four years. And to go further, since

809
00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:02,759
Speaker 2: twenty eighteen, we've only done it twice. We won the

810
00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:06,080
Speaker 2: SEC tournament once and we've made the Elite eight once.

811
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:14,160
Speaker 1: So when what six seasons one or two times out

812
00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:17,120
Speaker 1: of eighteen possibilities? Who's next?

813
00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:18,800
Speaker 3: Brent, Brent?

814
00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:19,520
Speaker 1: What's up? Brent?

815
00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:26,840
Speaker 11: Hey, guys, I'm gonna be on again. Hey, I just

816
00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:29,200
Speaker 11: want to maybe I'll make a positive point really quick

817
00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:31,640
Speaker 11: read Shepherd was incredible a due man. It was so

818
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:34,040
Speaker 11: good to see him come out of a show and

819
00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:38,000
Speaker 11: play really, really, really hard, and well, you know what,

820
00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:39,120
Speaker 11: here's what kind of bothers me.

821
00:41:39,239 --> 00:41:41,279
Speaker 8: The role of a coach is.

822
00:41:41,239 --> 00:41:43,799
Speaker 11: To set up the kids that you have in the

823
00:41:43,840 --> 00:41:47,799
Speaker 11: best situations, and we continue to not do that. We

824
00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:50,359
Speaker 11: continue to say, like, we're gonna stick with man, maybe

825
00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:51,920
Speaker 11: we should go to if we can beat off the

826
00:41:51,920 --> 00:41:53,399
Speaker 11: pick and roll, Maybe you go to his own, maybe

827
00:41:53,400 --> 00:41:55,040
Speaker 11: you play something different. And then we sit up at

828
00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:57,240
Speaker 11: the podium and we're like, you know what, we're trying

829
00:41:57,280 --> 00:41:59,359
Speaker 11: to teach him, why don't you do what makes sense

830
00:41:59,360 --> 00:41:59,839
Speaker 11: for the team.

831
00:41:59,880 --> 00:42:02,200
Speaker 17: We have four guards who.

832
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:04,920
Speaker 11: Can take anybody in the country off the dribble, and

833
00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:06,880
Speaker 11: we got the ball with like, what what was it,

834
00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:09,800
Speaker 11: twelve seconds left and we're throwing a lob into traffic.

835
00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:13,080
Speaker 11: It is It's ridiculous, And you know, maybe we should

836
00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:15,919
Speaker 11: have watched the tape of the Santa Clara Broncos who

837
00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:18,560
Speaker 11: beat Gonzaga, or maybe we should have called Keon and

838
00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:21,520
Speaker 11: Severe when Washington beat Gonzaga and kind of said, hey,

839
00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:23,560
Speaker 11: how should we play these guys because.

840
00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:26,239
Speaker 2: We're not I forgot they lost to Santa Claara, Yeah,

841
00:42:26,280 --> 00:42:28,640
Speaker 2: I watched it. I think they lost by double digits,

842
00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:29,600
Speaker 2: didn't they in that game?

843
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:31,640
Speaker 1: I think they did. Yeah, I appreciate the call.

844
00:42:34,080 --> 00:42:38,480
Speaker 2: It is so frustrating because this team, I mean, Gonzaga

845
00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:41,200
Speaker 2: is not good this year. They will probably not make

846
00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:44,320
Speaker 2: the tournament, folks, unless they win their conference tournament. Even

847
00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:47,400
Speaker 2: with this win, they'll probably not make the tournament.

848
00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:49,720
Speaker 1: And yet we lost.

849
00:42:49,880 --> 00:42:51,880
Speaker 2: And by the way, when the next bracketology comes out,

850
00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:56,160
Speaker 2: we're probably a seven. And we still got to go

851
00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:58,640
Speaker 2: to Auburn next week and have Old Miss at home.

852
00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:01,520
Speaker 2: I mean, Ole Miss at home should be a gimme,

853
00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:03,800
Speaker 2: but hard to feel that way right now.

854
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:07,319
Speaker 1: We'll see, let's do one more and we'll take a break.

855
00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:07,879
Speaker 1: Who's next?

856
00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:10,040
Speaker 3: Uh, Poe, Poe?

857
00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:11,680
Speaker 1: How are you? Poe?

858
00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:14,520
Speaker 20: I'm good, I'm good. First time color?

859
00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:18,239
Speaker 1: Who where are you from? Poe?

860
00:43:18,560 --> 00:43:21,600
Speaker 20: London? Representing Reed's country.

861
00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:24,759
Speaker 2: I can always uh, I can always hear the sixth,

862
00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:25,760
Speaker 2: So six go ahead.

863
00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:33,000
Speaker 20: Reid played awsome in the second half. I think when

864
00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:37,960
Speaker 20: he's in it's the only time our team has control

865
00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:43,160
Speaker 20: of tempo, either running or especially in the half court.

866
00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:49,040
Speaker 20: We really missed trade tonight. I think Gonzaga is better

867
00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:52,880
Speaker 20: than the record is. I disagree with you about that.

868
00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:57,120
Speaker 20: I think they will make the tournament. It is gone, by.

869
00:43:57,000 --> 00:43:59,640
Speaker 2: The way, I didn't say just a record. I didn't

870
00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:01,920
Speaker 2: say that they weren't gonna make the tournament. I think

871
00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:05,879
Speaker 2: they will, but I think it's possible they don't make

872
00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:07,600
Speaker 2: the tournament. That's now on the table.

873
00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:14,120
Speaker 20: Definitely, definitely, But I just don't understand. I think hell,

874
00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:17,680
Speaker 20: the last few years, I've set his time for cattle

875
00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:18,359
Speaker 20: gold Man.

876
00:44:19,239 --> 00:44:19,680
Speaker 1: I mean.

877
00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:25,440
Speaker 20: He recruits. We got a JV team at the first

878
00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:29,359
Speaker 20: of the year every year. Yeah, pretty much. And I'm

879
00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:30,000
Speaker 20: just gonna.

880
00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:33,880
Speaker 2: Well, I appreciate it. I hope everything's good in London,

881
00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:39,520
Speaker 2: thirteenth Region. Go sir, thank you, sir, appreciate it. I'm

882
00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:43,120
Speaker 2: gonna read you as supposed from Rob Doston. That's the

883
00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:44,960
Speaker 2: guy I feel to sixty eight. He was in Lexington

884
00:44:45,040 --> 00:44:48,440
Speaker 2: last week. Text I got from a coach about Kentucky's

885
00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:52,040
Speaker 2: final possession. When you see Kentucky run that set, you

886
00:44:52,080 --> 00:44:54,440
Speaker 2: know it's a lob. If you see a box, you

887
00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:56,960
Speaker 2: know lob. It's the most predictable thing they do.

888
00:44:59,440 --> 00:44:59,600
Speaker 1: There.

889
00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:03,640
Speaker 18: You go shades of the archaic offense that we've had

890
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:04,960
Speaker 18: over the last couple of years.

891
00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:10,440
Speaker 2: Uh yeah, well, chances are that Gonzaga may have known

892
00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:12,520
Speaker 2: that because they certainly were right there to take it,

893
00:45:12,719 --> 00:45:13,480
Speaker 2: no doubt.

894
00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:15,080
Speaker 1: Well take a break.

895
00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:17,640
Speaker 2: If I'm nine, two eight oh twenty two eighty seven,

896
00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:28,000
Speaker 2: this is the Local Toy Dealers KSR post game show, Quarterback,

897
00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:30,399
Speaker 2: It is a Local Toy Dealers KSR post game show.

898
00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:33,239
Speaker 2: If I'm not two, eight oh twenty two eighty seven,

899
00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:35,399
Speaker 2: it does feel like, I mean, we haven't really gotten one.

900
00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:40,200
Speaker 2: I don't know positive call yet we I mean, I

901
00:45:40,239 --> 00:45:41,840
Speaker 2: you know, you kind of can get a sense of

902
00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:44,160
Speaker 2: the fan base over the course of a show, because

903
00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:48,680
Speaker 2: here's the thing, if you get on social media, it's

904
00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:52,040
Speaker 2: amazing to me how different every side is, and how

905
00:45:52,080 --> 00:45:56,799
Speaker 2: different every social media side is, and positivity and negativity.

906
00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:02,239
Speaker 2: I actually have found that the best reflection of the

907
00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:04,520
Speaker 2: fan base is in.

908
00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:07,279
Speaker 1: Some ways the callers to this show because they care.

909
00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:11,279
Speaker 2: But then I also get a sense Billy at the

910
00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:14,960
Speaker 2: bar because the bar like gets hardcorees and casuals right

911
00:46:15,040 --> 00:46:16,600
Speaker 2: like people who are coming in from out of town

912
00:46:16,640 --> 00:46:17,080
Speaker 2: for the game.

913
00:46:17,160 --> 00:46:21,560
Speaker 1: You know what I mean. I was amazed, how I mean,

914
00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:22,680
Speaker 1: there was a ton of people there.

915
00:46:22,680 --> 00:46:24,880
Speaker 2: They were excited about the game, about how negative today

916
00:46:24,960 --> 00:46:26,280
Speaker 2: people worry about Cal.

917
00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:29,839
Speaker 1: Just in talking to him, and I think that's how

918
00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:32,000
Speaker 1: a lot of people feel. Now. I think it is.

919
00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:35,799
Speaker 2: You know, we had a caller second and go say

920
00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:38,360
Speaker 2: that that he thought Cal was arrogant. Cal is surely arrogant.

921
00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:41,239
Speaker 2: I mean, most people that are successful are though, let's

922
00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:45,319
Speaker 2: be real. But I just want you to when you

923
00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:50,759
Speaker 2: listen to him talk in wins or losses, listen to

924
00:46:50,880 --> 00:46:55,759
Speaker 2: how much of his commentary is aimed at critics. Now,

925
00:46:55,760 --> 00:46:57,960
Speaker 2: he never says who they are, but sometimes he acts

926
00:46:57,960 --> 00:47:01,000
Speaker 2: like it's fans. Sometimes he access to media. But how

927
00:47:01,080 --> 00:47:03,239
Speaker 2: much of it is you know, they'll say to you,

928
00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:05,680
Speaker 2: I mean, Billy, how much of what he says is

929
00:47:05,719 --> 00:47:08,880
Speaker 2: aimed at criticisms.

930
00:47:08,320 --> 00:47:10,280
Speaker 3: It's a lot.

931
00:47:10,760 --> 00:47:13,040
Speaker 1: I mean, it'll be that way tomorrow night or whenever.

932
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:16,160
Speaker 2: He'll do his his coaches show Monday night.

933
00:47:18,080 --> 00:47:20,200
Speaker 1: He did it today, he did it after Vandy.

934
00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:22,520
Speaker 2: Like for a person who says he doesn't listen to

935
00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:27,000
Speaker 2: the clutter, he refers to criticism of him all the time.

936
00:47:28,680 --> 00:47:32,800
Speaker 2: And that's partially why I think it is getting to

937
00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:37,200
Speaker 2: kind of a toxic point, because you know, it's just

938
00:47:37,320 --> 00:47:40,680
Speaker 2: it's like the two parties just don't seem.

939
00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:41,960
Speaker 1: To love each other as much as they used to,

940
00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:45,480
Speaker 1: and I think that makes it hard. Who's next?

941
00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:47,600
Speaker 3: Love Jacob, Jacob?

942
00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:48,400
Speaker 1: Go ahead, Jacob?

943
00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:51,239
Speaker 21: Hey, Matt, first time? Long time?

944
00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:51,920
Speaker 1: Who are.

945
00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:53,840
Speaker 9: So?

946
00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:57,240
Speaker 21: I've never been one to say we need to fire

947
00:47:57,320 --> 00:47:59,640
Speaker 21: cow or do anything like that. I even came into

948
00:47:59,640 --> 00:48:02,120
Speaker 21: this year kind of thinking, let's see what happens in March,

949
00:48:02,120 --> 00:48:04,800
Speaker 21: because I thought he had his guys. But I honestly

950
00:48:04,800 --> 00:48:06,839
Speaker 21: look at tonight and the little things that we could

951
00:48:06,880 --> 00:48:09,759
Speaker 21: do whenever it comes to winning and losing basketball games,

952
00:48:09,800 --> 00:48:11,200
Speaker 21: And the play that stood out to me the most

953
00:48:11,280 --> 00:48:14,880
Speaker 21: wasn't even made by us. It was when Gonzaga's point

954
00:48:14,880 --> 00:48:19,359
Speaker 21: guard filed us up three with five seconds to go,

955
00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:21,520
Speaker 21: and I thought to myself, we had that same exact

956
00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:25,239
Speaker 21: exact situation two weeks ago against Florida. We didn't do

957
00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:27,640
Speaker 21: it and it resulted in a loss. And I just

958
00:48:27,719 --> 00:48:30,160
Speaker 21: don't know how to gain confidence with the little things

959
00:48:30,200 --> 00:48:31,920
Speaker 21: and we don't seem to do them well at all.

960
00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:37,399
Speaker 2: Seventy five to seventy five, four minutes to go, tie game?

961
00:48:37,719 --> 00:48:38,879
Speaker 1: Did you think we were gonna win?

962
00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:42,560
Speaker 21: To be completely honest with you, I thought at the

963
00:48:42,560 --> 00:48:44,319
Speaker 21: five minute mark. We were gonna lose a game just

964
00:48:44,360 --> 00:48:47,680
Speaker 21: because our defense started to break down like it always does.

965
00:48:48,080 --> 00:48:51,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't, and that that to me. I appreciate

966
00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:53,680
Speaker 2: the call when they it was seventy five to seventy

967
00:48:53,719 --> 00:48:56,040
Speaker 2: five and they had the ball four minutes ago. When

968
00:48:56,040 --> 00:48:58,360
Speaker 2: you are a great program and you were at home,

969
00:48:58,800 --> 00:48:59,840
Speaker 2: you should.

970
00:48:59,600 --> 00:49:00,359
Speaker 1: Win that game.

971
00:49:00,680 --> 00:49:02,960
Speaker 2: I know when I watched Kansas play at home, if

972
00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:05,799
Speaker 2: they're down for with four minutes to go, I think

973
00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:08,920
Speaker 2: they're winning. I was like that with do for many

974
00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:12,280
Speaker 2: many years, less so now, but I was four minutes

975
00:49:12,320 --> 00:49:16,720
Speaker 2: to go, they're gonna win this game. For the first time.

976
00:49:16,800 --> 00:49:20,600
Speaker 2: With four minutes to go, it was tied, and I thought,

977
00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:22,759
Speaker 2: we're not gonna be We're not gonna stop.

978
00:49:22,800 --> 00:49:23,399
Speaker 1: We're gonna lose.

979
00:49:24,480 --> 00:49:27,720
Speaker 2: I never felt that way, even the bad Kentucky teams

980
00:49:28,200 --> 00:49:31,520
Speaker 2: over the years. I thought they'd win at home. But

981
00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:34,920
Speaker 2: I don't feel that way anymore at home, and that's

982
00:49:35,040 --> 00:49:36,680
Speaker 2: a shame. Who's next?

983
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:37,600
Speaker 3: Pride more?

984
00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:43,160
Speaker 1: Pride more? How are you doing well? Matt? Was that

985
00:49:43,320 --> 00:49:44,000
Speaker 1: the game tonight?

986
00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:44,759
Speaker 16: Uh?

987
00:49:44,800 --> 00:49:45,319
Speaker 1: Real quick?

988
00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:48,400
Speaker 16: On the last play, I think when Gonzaga stole the

989
00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:50,799
Speaker 16: ball away from us kind of took the air out

990
00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:53,920
Speaker 16: of the building. It was electric in there, and then

991
00:49:54,640 --> 00:49:56,760
Speaker 16: you know, we just kind of knew at that point

992
00:49:56,800 --> 00:49:59,040
Speaker 16: it was over, and fans started to kind of go out,

993
00:49:59,040 --> 00:50:02,480
Speaker 16: and I think the just kind of tired. You know.

994
00:50:02,560 --> 00:50:05,919
Speaker 16: We we always say, well, who we would replace cal with?

995
00:50:06,480 --> 00:50:08,880
Speaker 16: And my my answer to that is, you know, there's

996
00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:11,759
Speaker 16: a short list of people we can all think of. Well,

997
00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:12,920
Speaker 16: look at South Carolina.

998
00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:13,960
Speaker 1: You have U. T.

999
00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:16,759
Speaker 16: Chattan UGA's old coach, and he's about to take them

1000
00:50:16,880 --> 00:50:20,160
Speaker 16: to maybe a three seed, two seed somewhere in there.

1001
00:50:20,719 --> 00:50:24,319
Speaker 16: I just I think it's time to move on, and

1002
00:50:24,360 --> 00:50:27,319
Speaker 16: I think the excuse is of about run out. And

1003
00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:30,920
Speaker 16: last point, do you think there's any chance Mitch Barnhart

1004
00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:32,319
Speaker 16: catch Jay Wright before he leaves?

1005
00:50:32,400 --> 00:50:34,560
Speaker 1: Leon, I'll hang up and list of thanks. No, I

1006
00:50:35,320 --> 00:50:38,920
Speaker 1: don't think that'll happen. But uh, you know, I appreciate

1007
00:50:38,920 --> 00:50:39,680
Speaker 1: the call it I do.

1008
00:50:39,800 --> 00:50:43,520
Speaker 2: I mean, listen, it's it's all coming down to March.

1009
00:50:44,520 --> 00:50:51,440
Speaker 1: I don't. I do not think this is saveable unless

1010
00:50:51,440 --> 00:50:54,000
Speaker 1: you have a good march. I really don't.

1011
00:50:54,239 --> 00:50:57,760
Speaker 2: And I think today's loss, more than any of the others,

1012
00:50:58,640 --> 00:51:01,600
Speaker 2: is on the coach I did just the way they

1013
00:51:01,600 --> 00:51:06,239
Speaker 2: were absolutely picked apart and the play at the end

1014
00:51:06,280 --> 00:51:09,479
Speaker 2: of the game, the lob, all of it, the fact

1015
00:51:09,480 --> 00:51:13,000
Speaker 2: that you know, we didn't foul or we didn't foul

1016
00:51:13,040 --> 00:51:15,439
Speaker 2: up three they did all of it. This is the

1017
00:51:15,440 --> 00:51:18,879
Speaker 2: most col centric loss, certainly of the year.

1018
00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:23,000
Speaker 1: Like this is him, you know it is.

1019
00:51:23,320 --> 00:51:25,480
Speaker 2: And I if people disagree with that, that's fine, but

1020
00:51:25,880 --> 00:51:27,600
Speaker 2: I I this one's here.

1021
00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:30,200
Speaker 1: Let's do three more.

1022
00:51:30,239 --> 00:51:34,280
Speaker 3: Billy, Buffalo, Buffalo, how are you Buffalo?

1023
00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:37,759
Speaker 1: Hey? And that first time long time who are.

1024
00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:41,719
Speaker 10: Shout out to Billy for letting on the Billy and

1025
00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:43,200
Speaker 10: Matt postcape show.

1026
00:51:43,280 --> 00:51:46,319
Speaker 1: Appreciate you, belle. He uh.

1027
00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:49,560
Speaker 10: You know, I've always been a cow defender, And I

1028
00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:52,279
Speaker 10: was ready to give Kyle credit for his explanation of

1029
00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:56,839
Speaker 10: zoning the out of bounds under the basket, mentioning that, hey,

1030
00:51:56,440 --> 00:51:58,520
Speaker 10: if our roster is not going to be able to

1031
00:51:58,560 --> 00:52:00,480
Speaker 10: get what we're teaching, will adjust us.

1032
00:52:00,880 --> 00:52:02,920
Speaker 1: But like, if you're gonna take that attitude, how do

1033
00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:06,080
Speaker 1: you not adjust to a zone or a press or.

1034
00:52:06,200 --> 00:52:08,839
Speaker 2: Well, did you hear what he said tonight, Buffalo? Did

1035
00:52:08,880 --> 00:52:10,520
Speaker 2: you hear what he said night on the postgame show?

1036
00:52:10,600 --> 00:52:13,000
Speaker 2: He goes, well, you saw we didn't let anybody score

1037
00:52:13,080 --> 00:52:14,160
Speaker 2: off the inbound.

1038
00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:15,000
Speaker 1: Well, you're not supposed to.

1039
00:52:16,520 --> 00:52:19,560
Speaker 2: I mean, he almost wanted applause for not giving up

1040
00:52:19,600 --> 00:52:21,759
Speaker 2: wide open layups on the inbound.

1041
00:52:22,239 --> 00:52:23,919
Speaker 1: I was like, dude, you are one of the best

1042
00:52:23,920 --> 00:52:24,920
Speaker 1: coaches of all time.

1043
00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:29,080
Speaker 2: You're really bragging about not giving up layups on the inbound.

1044
00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:31,200
Speaker 1: Completely agree?

1045
00:52:31,239 --> 00:52:33,560
Speaker 10: And uh, you know you've touched on fouling up three,

1046
00:52:33,760 --> 00:52:36,319
Speaker 10: you've touched on the Gonzaga concert pick and roll.

1047
00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:38,320
Speaker 1: But I'll leave you with one positive.

1048
00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:38,640
Speaker 16: Uh.

1049
00:52:39,280 --> 00:52:41,920
Speaker 10: At least he showed up to the postgame interview with

1050
00:52:42,040 --> 00:52:44,319
Speaker 10: the reach tonight, so I'll give you that.

1051
00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:50,200
Speaker 1: But again, he's supposed to. He's supposed to. I feel

1052
00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:54,560
Speaker 1: like Chris Rock, you're supposed to. Who's next?

1053
00:52:55,080 --> 00:52:55,360
Speaker 3: Justin?

1054
00:52:56,000 --> 00:52:59,279
Speaker 1: Justin? What's up? Justin? Not much?

1055
00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:00,759
Speaker 9: Matt, first time? Long time?

1056
00:53:01,040 --> 00:53:02,640
Speaker 2: Who are a lot of first time ers? I can

1057
00:53:02,680 --> 00:53:04,239
Speaker 2: tell that means folks are frustrated.

1058
00:53:04,280 --> 00:53:11,080
Speaker 9: Go ahead, yes, sir, I'm I mean, I'm just at

1059
00:53:11,160 --> 00:53:12,440
Speaker 9: a loss for words.

1060
00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:13,680
Speaker 1: Man. I have been.

1061
00:53:15,960 --> 00:53:23,200
Speaker 9: A cow supporter his entire tenure, but I'm just at

1062
00:53:23,320 --> 00:53:27,719
Speaker 9: a loss for words as far as they're line up,

1063
00:53:28,560 --> 00:53:36,799
Speaker 9: the the bigs are just totally ineffective, and I don't

1064
00:53:36,840 --> 00:53:37,520
Speaker 9: know what to do.

1065
00:53:37,960 --> 00:53:42,960
Speaker 1: I don't know you know, but be frustrated.

1066
00:53:44,040 --> 00:53:49,120
Speaker 9: Exactly. You know that that that's it. I feel like

1067
00:53:49,239 --> 00:53:55,719
Speaker 9: that's uh just like maybe the majority of a BBN.

1068
00:53:57,120 --> 00:54:00,279
Speaker 9: It's just like, what is going on, dude? With this

1069
00:54:00,440 --> 00:54:06,360
Speaker 9: talent and this team, how are we not better the

1070
00:54:06,640 --> 00:54:12,440
Speaker 9: simple things? I mean, elementary school, fifth sixth grade basketball,

1071
00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:17,200
Speaker 9: blocking out? Yeah, I don't know what to say.

1072
00:54:17,440 --> 00:54:19,520
Speaker 2: I don't know what to say either. I appreciate the call.

1073
00:54:19,600 --> 00:54:21,640
Speaker 2: I think you speak for a lot of people. He

1074
00:54:21,680 --> 00:54:28,080
Speaker 2: didn't know what to say, Billy, Yeah, anytime you Yeah.

1075
00:54:28,160 --> 00:54:29,919
Speaker 3: Sorry, equipment issue over there?

1076
00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:31,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right.

1077
00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:35,080
Speaker 2: Let's do one more and this may be it, although

1078
00:54:35,120 --> 00:54:37,000
Speaker 2: if I'm feeling spicy, we might do one more.

1079
00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:38,800
Speaker 3: Who's next, Let's let's try Tyler?

1080
00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:40,440
Speaker 1: Tyler, go ahead, Tyler.

1081
00:54:41,520 --> 00:54:42,480
Speaker 8: Hey, Matt, what's going on?

1082
00:54:42,560 --> 00:54:42,799
Speaker 2: Brother?

1083
00:54:43,360 --> 00:54:45,200
Speaker 1: Doing well? I'm all right?

1084
00:54:46,239 --> 00:54:46,919
Speaker 21: Yeah, me too.

1085
00:54:47,440 --> 00:54:49,600
Speaker 8: A couple of things for you. One, I was at

1086
00:54:49,640 --> 00:54:55,400
Speaker 8: the bar before the game. Nachos are incredible. Sheah.

1087
00:54:55,600 --> 00:54:55,839
Speaker 9: Hey.

1088
00:54:57,600 --> 00:55:00,560
Speaker 8: When it comes up defense, I want to blame it

1089
00:55:00,560 --> 00:55:04,000
Speaker 8: on col Do you think it's maybe just the players

1090
00:55:04,040 --> 00:55:06,480
Speaker 8: in the effort, because when you have that, I don't

1091
00:55:06,520 --> 00:55:07,600
Speaker 8: think it's the talent.

1092
00:55:08,239 --> 00:55:11,719
Speaker 2: I've never really felt like the guys don't try I mean,

1093
00:55:11,719 --> 00:55:13,880
Speaker 2: I don't, so I don't necessarily think it's the effort.

1094
00:55:14,120 --> 00:55:16,400
Speaker 1: But I also don't think these dudes are good defenders.

1095
00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:19,400
Speaker 2: But at the same time, col's not this in the

1096
00:55:19,400 --> 00:55:21,239
Speaker 2: first team a coach has ever had where they weren't

1097
00:55:21,239 --> 00:55:21,760
Speaker 2: good defenders.

1098
00:55:21,800 --> 00:55:23,200
Speaker 1: You got to adjust, right.

1099
00:55:24,600 --> 00:55:25,040
Speaker 8: A right?

1100
00:55:26,400 --> 00:55:26,960
Speaker 16: I mean.

1101
00:55:30,320 --> 00:55:32,719
Speaker 2: You don't think about this, Uh, think about this. Think

1102
00:55:32,760 --> 00:55:36,279
Speaker 2: about the Saint Peter's game. You think those dudes were

1103
00:55:36,320 --> 00:55:40,600
Speaker 2: better defenders than our guys. No, but they found a

1104
00:55:40,600 --> 00:55:43,120
Speaker 2: way to adjust and win. You gotta find a way.

1105
00:55:43,400 --> 00:55:45,960
Speaker 2: I don't care what it is to not let a

1106
00:55:46,040 --> 00:55:49,319
Speaker 2: team run the same play for eight straight minutes and

1107
00:55:49,400 --> 00:55:52,799
Speaker 2: score every single time. You have to What are you

1108
00:55:52,960 --> 00:55:55,600
Speaker 2: being paid for? I could go out there and let

1109
00:55:55,680 --> 00:55:58,800
Speaker 2: them score every time. You have to find a way

1110
00:55:58,960 --> 00:55:59,960
Speaker 2: to make an adjustment.

1111
00:56:02,360 --> 00:56:07,279
Speaker 8: Sure, sure, I also think the I mean, you tell

1112
00:56:07,560 --> 00:56:10,359
Speaker 8: you lead a horse of water, can't force them to drink.

1113
00:56:11,120 --> 00:56:13,960
Speaker 2: I know, but look this, it's not like it's not

1114
00:56:14,040 --> 00:56:18,160
Speaker 2: like we're everts playing against you know, Saint X all right,

1115
00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:21,400
Speaker 2: I mean we are. Guys are more talented than there guys.

1116
00:56:22,239 --> 00:56:26,200
Speaker 2: Their guys are older. But so what I mean, it's

1117
00:56:26,600 --> 00:56:29,080
Speaker 2: you know, I appreciate the call is. I was watching

1118
00:56:29,120 --> 00:56:31,880
Speaker 2: them score play after play. It made me think of

1119
00:56:31,920 --> 00:56:34,680
Speaker 2: if you were watching like a mismatch high school game,

1120
00:56:34,960 --> 00:56:38,160
Speaker 2: where it doesn't matter what the people do, they just

1121
00:56:38,239 --> 00:56:39,480
Speaker 2: simply can't stop them.

1122
00:56:40,160 --> 00:56:41,160
Speaker 1: That's what we look like.

1123
00:56:41,320 --> 00:56:46,360
Speaker 2: But we have multiple five stars and we just get

1124
00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:49,839
Speaker 2: bullied by dudes from the West Coast Conference that lost

1125
00:56:49,880 --> 00:56:57,120
Speaker 2: by thirteen to Santa Clara. So look, I'm it's a

1126
00:56:57,160 --> 00:57:01,279
Speaker 2: tough spot. I'm trying not to overreact, you know, I am,

1127
00:57:01,560 --> 00:57:05,480
Speaker 2: because there's a point at which, you know, in some

1128
00:57:05,600 --> 00:57:07,399
Speaker 2: of this stuff, if you go too far, like there's

1129
00:57:07,440 --> 00:57:10,160
Speaker 2: no coming back, you know, which is why you won't

1130
00:57:10,160 --> 00:57:13,040
Speaker 2: hear me say yet. Well it's over at Kentucky. I

1131
00:57:13,120 --> 00:57:17,919
Speaker 2: got to get through March. But this is unacceptable, and

1132
00:57:19,080 --> 00:57:21,240
Speaker 2: I don't get the sense our fan base is accepting

1133
00:57:21,280 --> 00:57:28,240
Speaker 2: it anymore. But you know, you cannot at Kentucky have

1134
00:57:28,520 --> 00:57:31,560
Speaker 2: the last four years we've had, and specifically like the

1135
00:57:31,640 --> 00:57:35,400
Speaker 2: last four weeks we've had. You gotta be better than that.

1136
00:57:37,040 --> 00:57:38,680
Speaker 2: Thank you all for staying up and listening. Well, I

1137
00:57:38,680 --> 00:57:40,560
Speaker 2: guess it's not that late, but thank you for listening.

1138
00:57:40,640 --> 00:57:43,440
Speaker 2: Tomorrow join the super Bowl. I think I'm on the

1139
00:57:43,720 --> 00:57:46,600
Speaker 2: espnbilly for like six weeks tomorrow. They just they keep

1140
00:57:46,640 --> 00:57:49,160
Speaker 2: adding thirty minutes to the show every night so they

1141
00:57:49,200 --> 00:57:50,760
Speaker 2: to tune in at some point if you get bored,

1142
00:57:50,800 --> 00:57:53,160
Speaker 2: and then we will see you Monday. This has been

1143
00:57:53,440 --> 00:57:56,840
Speaker 2: a disappointing night and the local toilet dealers KSR postgame

1144
00:57:56,880 --> 00:57:57,080
Speaker 2: show
