That's KRT dot com. All right, So 30 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:37,320 Speaker 3: some questions coming in here. One person writes, Matt, it 31 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:40,840 Speaker 3: feels on the Athletic article about JMI feel like for 32 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:42,960 Speaker 3: the last few weeks you haven't really been given your 33 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 3: opinion on this. Now that you've read it, where do 34 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 3: you actually stand on it? I now feel like I 35 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 3: understand a little more, at least about their mindset. I 36 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 3: honestly don't know, because I don't. 37 00:01:58,480 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 2: I don't. 38 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 3: The proof is in the pudding, right, So that's why 39 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 3: I want to know about UK Healthcare. I mean, I 40 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 3: know UK Healthcare has expanded a lot. I know it's 41 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:09,520 Speaker 3: got a lot more real estate. I know it's got 42 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:13,040 Speaker 3: a lot more hospitals, I think the analogy from healthcare 43 00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 3: and sports though, as you would say, Okay, our patient's 44 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 3: outcomes better, And I don't know the answer to that question. 45 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 3: So if they are, then that may be very successful. 46 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 3: At sports. The question will be does whatever structure they use, 47 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:27,639 Speaker 3: does Kentucky win? 48 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:29,520 Speaker 2: Right? 49 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 3: I mean that's gonna be ultimately the bottom line. Does 50 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 3: it provide the resources and the decision making process that 51 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 3: leads to wins? And I think we'll have to see, 52 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 3: you know, I think there's some I like the focus 53 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:45,919 Speaker 3: this idea that we've got to look at it from 54 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:50,680 Speaker 3: a business perspective. I think that's reality. I'm skeptical about 55 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:54,120 Speaker 3: the LLC and US being the first school to do it, 56 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 3: but some people are bigger risk takers than I am, right, 57 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,799 Speaker 3: So you know, we'll see. I want it to work. 58 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 3: We need it to work. I think UK and JMI 59 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 3: should have done this conversation a year ago and should 60 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,239 Speaker 3: have like, let people know better. 61 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 2: But we are where we are now, and we'll have 62 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 2: to see. 63 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 3: I think there's some quotes in there though that Shannon, 64 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 3: they better work or they'll stick with them. 65 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 2: That's right. 66 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonna remember that. 67 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 2: It's we're gonna Scage McDuck. 68 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 3: I mean, even though UK didn't say Scrooge McDuck, I 69 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 3: will remember Scrooge McDuck. Yes, because the next time UK 70 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:30,800 Speaker 3: or JMI says, hey, we need money, I'm gonna think 71 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:31,680 Speaker 3: of Scrooge McDuck. 72 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 2: It's gonna be hard to ask for money when you're 73 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 2: Scrooge McDuck. 74 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 1: That's right, yeah, because all the greed that you're gonna think. 75 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 3: But at the same time, like, if we're getting players 76 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 3: left and right and we're winning and they're Scrooge McDuck, 77 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 3: then it's a win win for. 78 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 1: Everybody, right, Yep, that's all that matters most people. 79 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 2: That's all that will matter. 80 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 3: So I guess it's kind of like we'll wait and see. 81 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 3: I hope more universities announced they're doing this, though, Drew, 82 00:03:58,160 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 3: because I kind of get nervous if we're out on 83 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 3: a limb by herself and. 84 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 4: I'm you know this is this is a good spin 85 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:06,840 Speaker 4: on it. If only Mitch Barnhardt had said something along 86 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 4: these lines instead of yelling enough when people ask this 87 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 4: in September, maybe we could have avoided a Well, they've 88 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 4: done a long however, many months of worrying. 89 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:16,919 Speaker 3: They've done a horrible job of pr the knucklehead comment. 90 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:19,719 Speaker 3: There's just been a huge amount of mistakes. But I 91 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,360 Speaker 3: am optimistic that I've heard in the last twenty four 92 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 3: hours forty eight hours that there's some realization that, yeah, 93 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 3: we didn't do all that correctly, and so hopefully that 94 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 3: ends up being the case. 95 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,840 Speaker 1: Well, did it take that Brett Setzer letter to kind 96 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 1: of somebody, you know, a power player. 97 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 2: Think gets a crinical mass of. 98 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 3: Let's see, how do I put this? I gotta be careful, 99 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 3: you know, Shannon, Everything I say. 100 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 5: Now that's recorded. 101 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's amazing. 102 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 3: How like if you go on the internet, people are 103 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 3: they think I'm oz like everything that happens, I'm magically 104 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:01,120 Speaker 3: like words, I you know. 105 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 2: What you were, It's unbelievable. 106 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 3: Like I we are not near we are I think 107 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:10,359 Speaker 3: we have some power. We are nearly as powerful as 108 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 3: people think. But you combined over the last few days, 109 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 3: from the from Demarcus's cousins, Demarcus's comments to to you know, 110 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 3: the coaches, to uh one of the families of the player, 111 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,039 Speaker 3: you know players family member, it's like you don't even 112 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:31,039 Speaker 3: ultimately my my responsibilities to the audience, and so I 113 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 3: just have to like be responsible to the audience, and 114 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 3: so to the audience, you know, you sit here and say, well, 115 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 3: what do you say? Here's what I think is the problem. 116 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 3: I think mentioned Mark Pope were one hundred percent confident 117 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:45,200 Speaker 3: that everything they were doing in basketball was gonna work. 118 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:50,039 Speaker 3: Mark Pope didn't say we had a ferrari because he 119 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 3: thought this was what was gonna happen. And I think 120 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 3: for the first time there's been a realization, you know what, 121 00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 3: it didn't quite work like we thought, and I'm hoping 122 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 3: that leads to a readjustment. I think until probably Ryan 123 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,040 Speaker 3: the SEC tournament, I think Mark Pope thought we were 124 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:11,839 Speaker 3: going to make a run. 125 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 2: I believe that, I really do. I think he did. 126 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 3: And then I think maybe there was a realization as 127 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 3: we were losing to Florida for the third time that 128 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 3: maybe we wouldn't, which is why he didn't do the tournament, 129 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:28,360 Speaker 3: you know what I mean, the tournament selection and all that. 130 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 3: But so I think maybe there's a realization now that 131 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 3: they got to do stuff a little bit differently, So 132 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 3: we'll see. That's that's where my view is. Now, let's 133 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 3: talk about Michael Wilbo. I love PTI, Ryan, I haven't 134 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 3: watched PTI much in recent years, but I love I 135 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:57,039 Speaker 3: mean Tony Kornheiser is one of my three heroes in entertainment. 136 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 3: Love Tony Kornheiser. I've always shanned and tolerated Willbond. Yeah, okay, 137 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 3: love Cornheiser. Tolerate Wilbond. But Willbonon hates Kentucky Ryan. He's 138 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 3: always hated Kentucky. 139 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 1: Always been a little anti UK for whatever reason, I 140 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 1: don't know why. 141 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 3: He blasted us when Tubby Smith left. He blasted us 142 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 3: for getting rid of Billy Gillespie. He blasted us for 143 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 3: not appreciating cow and now he's blasting us for not 144 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:33,160 Speaker 3: appreciating Pope. On the same show where he acknowledges that 145 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 3: Hubert Davis maybe should go, he blasts us for having 146 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 3: any conversations about Pope. And by the way, has anyone 147 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 3: Pope's not going anywhere? Right? 148 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:44,480 Speaker 2: No? 149 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 1: No, no? 150 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 5: On Facebook? 151 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 3: He's not going anywhere. But Will Bond and he does 152 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 3: this about every two or three years. Decides to rant 153 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 3: about Kentucky fans. And here's what he says. 154 00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 6: I think it's hard for Kentucky to fire Mark Pope. 155 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 7: He's a grad, is a hard goos Kentucky to fire anybody, well, 156 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 7: he goes one better than you, Bert Davis. 157 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 6: He was the captain on a national championship team under 158 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:14,000 Speaker 6: Rick Patino. He made the Sweet sixteen last year.

I don't look at it in 165 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 2: that context. 166 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 7: I look at it as how greedy is Kentucky. 167 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 2: They're the greediest. 168 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,560 Speaker 7: If you line up all the blue bloods to say 169 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:39,719 Speaker 7: who's the greediest on the on the totem pole when 170 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:43,920 Speaker 7: it comes to college baskets college basketball, the answer is content's. 171 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: A get out question. 172 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:47,319 Speaker 6: What do you think it helps Mark Pope that Rick 173 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 6: Patino and John Calipari are in the sweet sixteen? 174 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 8: What do you think they're thinking of Lexington? 175 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 9: You know? 176 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 6: But I will say this, they got beat by a 177 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 6: two seed. 178 00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 2: Ido State's a two seed, all right? 179 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 3: So couple things always annoys me when people who don't 180 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:05,559 Speaker 3: watch college basketball Drew decide they're the experts of college basketball. 181 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 2: And that happens in March every year, right. 182 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,679 Speaker 4: H Wilbond probably wasn't watching a lot of cons. He 183 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 4: hadn't watched the Kentucky game all season. Second, he says, 184 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:17,840 Speaker 4: he acts like we fired Patino in cal Perry. 185 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:19,440 Speaker 2: Did we fire either of those coaches? 186 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 1: He did not. They both left on their own. 187 00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 2: Did we fire Tummy Smith? 188 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 1: Did not? 189 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 2: He left on his own. 190 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 5: The person we fired was. 191 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:29,320 Speaker 3: Billy Gillespie, and I'll defend that one in court. All Right, 192 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:33,080 Speaker 3: we didn't fire any of these people. So this idea 193 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 3: that we just fire people. Rick Patino left on his own. 194 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 3: Kentucky fans didn't want Rick Patino to go, did they, 195 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:46,080 Speaker 3: Nock No, cal cal left on his own. Now, a 196 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:48,840 Speaker 3: lot of Kentucky fans did want him to go, maybe 197 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 3: the majority, probably the majority. But he still left on 198 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:57,199 Speaker 3: his own. Had he wanted to Drew, he'd have been back, right, 199 00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:58,720 Speaker 3: They already did the video. 200 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, and he was coming back. 201 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 3: But you know what, we are greedy. Yes, that's why 202 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 3: we're Kentucky. We are greedy, and in this context, greed 203 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,559 Speaker 3: is good. That's how you're a blue blood. You want 204 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 3: to be successful in sports, you gotta win all the time. 205 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 3: Kentucky wants to win all the time. Are our expectations unreasonable? 206 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 3: Maybe sometimes, but the moment we're not. You know what, 207 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 3: we become Indiana? You want us to become Indiana? Is 208 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:38,840 Speaker 3: Indiana a desirable job? So Kentucky fans are greedy, but 209 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:42,600 Speaker 3: greed is not bad. Kentucky fans are the kindest, best people. 210 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 3: Do we have nutjobs? Yes, but so does every fan base. 211 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 3: Every fan base says nut jobs. 212 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:48,679 Speaker 2: Louisville. 213 00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:50,960 Speaker 3: I like to make fun of Louisville, but generally speaking, 214 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 3: I think their fans are good. Right, Generally speaking, I 215 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,840 Speaker 3: think Louisville's fans are good. They had nut jobs, they 216 00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:00,559 Speaker 3: got people saying crazy stuff. Everybody does. Act like we're 217 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 3: the only people with nutjobs is insane. 218 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, and we live in a world where nutjobs with 219 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 4: social media, I mean, they get a bigger platform than 220 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:10,320 Speaker 4: you used to just be them yelling at the water 221 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:12,680 Speaker 4: cooler at the office. So it makes it look worse. 222 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 4: But on the greedy thing, I get so annoyed when 223 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:19,439 Speaker 4: people talk about Kentucky can be the worst. They're allowed 224 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:22,120 Speaker 4: to have unreasonable expectations when they do things like have 225 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:24,559 Speaker 4: twenty thousand people at a press conference for the coach 226 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 4: in April or fill entire arenas on the road. I 227 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,720 Speaker 4: mean all the good things about Kentucky. When you care 228 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 4: that much and you have that much passion, when you 229 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 4: have a fourteen loss season, you're probably gonna be a 230 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:38,680 Speaker 4: little down because you're so invested in it emotionally, financially, everything. 231 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 4: You make it your life and that's what makes Kentucky 232 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:43,680 Speaker 4: fans so good and the best. But then people spin 233 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 4: that to make it like you sound like we're just 234 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 4: crazy people. Whenever we're disappointed, it comes with it like 235 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 4: it comes with it. Part of being at Kentucky is 236 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:55,679 Speaker 4: when you win, we will treat you as a king. 237 00:11:56,960 --> 00:12:01,679 Speaker 3: You will become the most popular and rich person in 238 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 3: the state. John Caliperi and Rick Patino were legends here. 239 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 3: They were beloved like no one has been beloved. But 240 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:16,679 Speaker 3: the counter to that is you're gonna get paid ten 241 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:19,320 Speaker 3: million dollars. Well, then when things don't go well and 242 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 3: you lose to Oakland Saint Peter's, you're gonna hear it. 243 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:26,440 Speaker 3: That's just how it is. That's life.

You could 248 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:40,880 Speaker 3: put yourself on them. Shit, that's true, you could. But 249 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:45,080 Speaker 3: you're also gonna get criticized every single day. That's just 250 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 3: how that job is. 251 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 9: And half of America is gonna hate you. 252 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 3: But here, if you win, all love you.

I'm gonna shift gears here. I 407 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:50,880 Speaker 9: got them. I'm totally blind and I got a friend, 408 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:53,440 Speaker 9: a lot of friends. It's blind in the visually impaired world, 409 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 9: and our only way to listen to ball games is 410 00:19:55,320 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 9: on the radio. Yes, and Givens is knowledgeable, knowledgeable, but 411 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:05,399 Speaker 9: he interrupts Tom all the time when the ball's in play, 412 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 9: and that is just totally obnoxious. How can we communicate 413 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:17,120 Speaker 9: this to him or his bosses? Because all the time 414 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 9: he goes the balls long long, long, short, short, short, 415 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:25,440 Speaker 9: and sometimes he sounds like a Batman episode. Oh oh oh, he. 416 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 3: Does get excited. I kind of like when he gets excited. 417 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 3: But are you saying because I just want to make 418 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:31,360 Speaker 3: sure I understand what you're saying. You're saying you're since 419 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:33,920 Speaker 3: you're visually impaired, like when he does it, it's hard 420 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:35,880 Speaker 3: for you to follow what's happening during the game. 421 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 9: Let yes, let Tom call the ball while the ball's 422 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:42,960 Speaker 9: in play. When the ball's not in play, you provide 423 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 9: the color. Yeah, okay, that makes sense. 424 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:47,720 Speaker 3: Now, I understand what you're saying. I'd never really thought 425 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 3: of it like that. I'm sure I can tell you. 426 00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:52,200 Speaker 3: Knowing Jack, I'm sure he doesn't do that on purpose. 427 00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:56,680 Speaker 9: No, no, no, no, I didn't say that, But I'm just saying, 428 00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 9: putting the balls in play, let Tom do his job. 429 00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:00,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. 430 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:05,200 Speaker 9: Tom did a game with a guy named Jordan Cornett 431 00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:08,160 Speaker 9: this weekend, and it was a breath of fresh air 432 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:14,920 Speaker 9: to hear a color commentator not interrupt him every single time. Yeah, 433 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:18,360 Speaker 9: all right, I love I love giving Yeah, I appreci 434 00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:19,120 Speaker 9: communicate that. 435 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:20,159 Speaker 2: I'm sure he was. 436 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:22,919 Speaker 3: My guess is and I appreciate the call that that 437 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 3: it'll get communicated, you know through this show that if 438 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:29,720 Speaker 3: somebody will have heard it, Steve, go ahead, Steve. 439 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:35,440 Speaker 10: Hey, guys, got a couple of comments, and then get 440 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:39,360 Speaker 10: your all's opinions. You know, we've been hearing for two 441 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:44,880 Speaker 10: years about how smart Ope is, but is he basketball savvy? Smart? 442 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:49,360 Speaker 10: He may be book smart, but I don't think as 443 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 10: far as the basketball savvy, maybe he's not quite there yet. 444 00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:56,320 Speaker 2: So you're saying you think like. 445 00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 3: So you're saying these BookSmart but not basket I mean 446 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 3: you don't feel like he's a I mean, I do 447 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:05,440 Speaker 3: feel like he understands X and o's concept. 448 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:07,119 Speaker 2: You don't. You don't feel that's the case. 449 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:11,280 Speaker 10: I don't think so because it didn't transpire this year 450 00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:17,119 Speaker 10: on the court. And I guess the other thing, who 451 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 10: do we get on the staff that can mentor point guards? 452 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 2: And I don't know, reason Drew. 453 00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:27,239 Speaker 3: Do you know who works like with individual positions or 454 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:28,119 Speaker 3: on the staff? 455 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 5: I don't mean Jason harr was probably a big one. 456 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:31,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true, he probably was. 457 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:36,760 Speaker 10: There's one guy, there's one guy out there.

Is that how you normally say it? 500 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:36,679 Speaker 1: I think I say biscuits and gravy. 501 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:39,159 Speaker 2: They say in your Wild eggs ad you say gravy 502 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:39,840 Speaker 2: and biscuits. 503 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 1: Well maybe I thought they wanted it. Written that day. 504 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:46,040 Speaker 2: Okay, but it is biscuits and gravy. 505 00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:48,919 Speaker 1: Right, That's how I've always said it, biscuits and gravy. 506 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:50,879 Speaker 3: I don't think I've ever heard if you said gravy 507 00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:54,000 Speaker 3: and biscuits, that's psychopathic behavior because I don't think anyone 508 00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:54,359 Speaker 3: says that. 509 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:56,639 Speaker 1: Maybe we're starting a new trend. Now you'll catch one. 510 00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:58,600 Speaker 4: Can you say like carrots and peas or do you 511 00:24:58,640 --> 00:24:59,640 Speaker 4: have to say peas and carrots? 512 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:04,639 Speaker 3: Can you say jelly and peanut butter? That all sounds weird, 513 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 3: It sounds awkward. Yeah, yeah, I don't think you can 514 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,000 Speaker 3: say gravy and miss. I think it's biscuits and gravy, 515 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:11,240 Speaker 3: PE's and carrots. 516 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:13,680 Speaker 2: Ham? 517 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:16,400 Speaker 3: You can you say eggs and ham? I love green eggs. 518 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 3: I love ham and green eggs. 519 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 2: Doesn't work the same with the rhyme though, but it doesn't. Yeah, 520 00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 2: all right, So it. 521 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:27,720 Speaker 1: Is wildcat eggs, wild eggs Wednesday. 522 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:30,680 Speaker 2: Okay, wild eggs Wednesday.

I said it correctly to him? You sure? 531 00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:55,400 Speaker 2: Okay, all right, we'll. 532 00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,200 Speaker 3: See it goes. It's going up on ksar toll. You 533 00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:01,080 Speaker 3: got ten minutes to answer right there in the comments. 534 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:04,480 Speaker 3: All right, So we need to talk about Drew Derek Johnson. 535 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 3: So Derek is Jasper's uncle? 536 00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 2: Is that right? 537 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:08,960 Speaker 3: Ryan? 538 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:10,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, Dennison Dereck are brothers. 539 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:15,680 Speaker 3: Yes, Derek played it. Derek played it at UK, and 540 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 3: Derek is Jasper's uncle. And he posted this on Facebook? 541 00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:23,680 Speaker 3: Was this Facebook last night? 542 00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:24,400 Speaker 2: Is that right? 543 00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:28,480 Speaker 3: As a former Kentucky football player at UK, someone who 544 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:31,199 Speaker 3: turned down every Power five school in the country, just 545 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 3: like my brother, to help build this university, I'm disgusted 546 00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:36,160 Speaker 3: and appalled by the way some of our fans talk 547 00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:39,960 Speaker 3: about these kids. Whether it's fake media sites or official ones, 548 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:42,800 Speaker 3: it doesn't matter. Cowardly behavior is still part of the 549 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 3: fan base. I'm glad Big Couz said what he said 550 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:47,720 Speaker 3: because too many people speaking on the game have no 551 00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:50,399 Speaker 3: real understanding of it. They pick and choose who to 552 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 3: target and create narratives depending on who they want to scapegoat. 553 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:55,679 Speaker 3: I get it, it drives clicks, but it should never 554 00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 3: come at the expense of kids. Let me be clear, 555 00:26:57,560 --> 00:26:59,879 Speaker 3: it's not everyone. I'm grateful for those who truly support 556 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:02,440 Speaker 3: I used to wonder why older people in my community 557 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:06,640 Speaker 3: didn't rock with UK. Now I understand why, and honestly, 558 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:08,600 Speaker 3: it's why. No kid in their right mind would enjoy 559 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:11,320 Speaker 3: being here if they don't fit in. I'm thankful for 560 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 3: those who support my family. But these last four months, 561 00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:15,320 Speaker 3: what I thought would be an exciting time watching my 562 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:17,719 Speaker 3: nephew Chase's dreams have turned into one of the most 563 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:20,919 Speaker 3: disappointing experiences I've ever seen. I've never witnessed people be 564 00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:23,320 Speaker 3: so nasty, whether it's on real sites or in comments 565 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:26,360 Speaker 3: or not. There are real people make it behind those comments. 566 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:29,680 Speaker 3: He played playing in thirty second intervals and never really 567 00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:33,160 Speaker 3: given a chance. Not my decision, but hopefully you'll get 568 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:36,320 Speaker 3: your wish and then he has a skull and crossbones 569 00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:42,919 Speaker 3: at the end of it. Ryan, you are close with 570 00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:49,040 Speaker 3: the family or friends with the family, What are your thoughts? 571 00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:51,440 Speaker 1: It's tough for me because You're right, I've known these 572 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:53,720 Speaker 1: guys for thirty years, and I've known Jassper since he 573 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:55,640 Speaker 1: was a little guy and I want him to succeed. 574 00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 1: But I think they would all admit the season didn't 575 00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 1: go the way they thought it would on the court. 576 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:03,840 Speaker 1: Off the court. Jasper would probably amit that himself. But 577 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:07,159 Speaker 1: if if they're saying that about my kid, I'm I'm 578 00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:10,399 Speaker 1: upset too. I mean, I can see where he's coming from, because. 579 00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:12,120 Speaker 2: There's two different parts of it. 580 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:15,480 Speaker 3: There's the part aimed at fans, and then I would 581 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:18,320 Speaker 3: assume Ryan, the big Couz thing, I mean Cousins was 582 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:19,280 Speaker 3: talking about me. 583 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:22,639 Speaker 2: I mean, is that how you read it? 584 00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 1: I didn't think about that, but that may be why 585 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:27,120 Speaker 1: he is implying. 586 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:30,520 Speaker 3: I think that's probably I think that part. I think 587 00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:33,360 Speaker 3: part of it's clearly about fans in general. There's also 588 00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 3: a shot at Mark Pope at the end, saying he 589 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:39,920 Speaker 3: only gets to play in thirty second intervals, Drew. 590 00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 2: What do you think. 591 00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 4: I'm not gonna hide from being critical of Jasper Johnson. 592 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 4: I don't think any of us on this show have 593 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 4: been nasty whatsoever. We all know him personally and really 594 00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:52,960 Speaker 4: like him. Heck, he was just on the show. That's great, 595 00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:55,280 Speaker 4: Yeah great, And you know, I would probably even side 596 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:58,479 Speaker 4: with the Johnson's on how Jasper was used early on 597 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:00,520 Speaker 4: and not being a fit and not being a good year. 598 00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 4: So it's any part that he thinks were it fault, 599 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 4: I won't run from it. I've been critical, but also 600 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:06,760 Speaker 4: I mean, he hasn't played well this year. I don't 601 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:08,160 Speaker 4: know what you want me to say. I wanted him 602 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 4: to play better. If if I could write the script 603 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:13,040 Speaker 4: of this season, Jaspard had fifteen points per game. But 604 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 4: then at the end it threw me off. It seemed 605 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:16,959 Speaker 4: as and he's it was his first Facebook post this year, 606 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 4: by the way, it seems he's upset with Pope too, 607 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 4: And that would be if I were in issues, my 608 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 4: bigger issue would be that, you know, he said thirty 609 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:27,080 Speaker 4: seconds a game, I would be more upset with how 610 00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:31,000 Speaker 4: Jasper was recruited than not used. But you know it 611 00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 4: is what I mean. We can pull up his stats. 612 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 4: I'm not I'm not trying to be nasty whatsoever, but 613 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 4: I think it's completely fair when he had the a 614 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:39,320 Speaker 4: couple of minutes he did at Iowa State to say, 615 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,000 Speaker 4: you know that didn't help the game there. 616 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, this, I mean, this is hard, like I don't know, 617 00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:47,920 Speaker 3: it's hard. I don't know Derek, but I like him 618 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 3: a lot. I'm sure he's a great guy. Like I 619 00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:54,680 Speaker 3: don't know him. You know, there are three parts of 620 00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:57,840 Speaker 3: this part about the fans. He's right that there are 621 00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:00,320 Speaker 3: fans that overreact. Again, I'll say what I say about 622 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:03,160 Speaker 3: Will Bond. There's gonna be fans. Find me a fan 623 00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:04,920 Speaker 3: base in the country that doesn't have mean people in 624 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:08,520 Speaker 3: the fan base like and I hate that. Kids don't 625 00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:14,520 Speaker 3: deserve that. Kids deserve no personal criticism, but it's also 626 00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:19,760 Speaker 3: not realistic in today's social media world. And they're also 627 00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 3: being paid now, and that changes things that the narrative. 628 00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:25,000 Speaker 2: It just does. 629 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:27,920 Speaker 3: And if Jasper hits his dreams and goes to the NBA, 630 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 3: he's gonna get Does he not think he's gonna get 631 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 3: criticized there, Shannon? He is, you know now. At the 632 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:36,080 Speaker 3: same time, if it's my nephew, I'm gonna be upset too. 633 00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:38,120 Speaker 3: And I think Derek has a right to say all 634 00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:40,680 Speaker 3: of that if he wants. I don't know that it's 635 00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:43,120 Speaker 3: helpful when people do that, but he can do it. Man, 636 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:45,560 Speaker 3: if it was my nephew, I'd probably do the same thing. 637 00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 3: He's also criticizing Pope for playing. Maybe Jasper should have 638 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 3: played more earlier in the year, but I mean, guys, 639 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 3: should he have played more late in the year. 640 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:54,960 Speaker 2: Do you believe that. 641 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:02,520 Speaker 4: Y'all wanted Aberdeen to play till his legs fell off? 642 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:05,120 Speaker 4: I mean that's nothing against Jasper, nothing against. 643 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:07,280 Speaker 3: Him, but like it is what it is now, the 644 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 3: part about you know, assuming he's referencing me because of 645 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 3: the cousin's line. You know, I'm a little bit at 646 00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 3: a loss right now in the last forty eight hours, 647 00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 3: because I feel like some of this is I'm really 648 00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:29,680 Speaker 3: at a loss as to what people want, like for me, 649 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:35,760 Speaker 3: I don't I don't really know how to do this 650 00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 3: job if it like, if nothing works that people say. 651 00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:44,520 Speaker 3: I have never been personally critical to any player, I 652 00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:47,600 Speaker 3: don't think. Since I've done this, I think I've probably 653 00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 3: been more pro player than almost anyone because I always 654 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:55,800 Speaker 3: see them as like college kids. I like Jasper. I've 655 00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:58,440 Speaker 3: never i have not said one bad thing about Jasper's part. 656 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 3: I've said he has not played well. But what are 657 00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:04,360 Speaker 3: you supposed to say? I mean, if he comes in 658 00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 3: and he and he's minus nine and two minutes, what 659 00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:12,120 Speaker 3: are you supposed to do? Just ignore it, Like, what 660 00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:14,360 Speaker 3: are you supposed to do? I don't know, I don't 661 00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:18,600 Speaker 3: really know what people want. Like the Cousins thing really 662 00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:22,400 Speaker 3: like it probably shouldn't have but it's because it was 663 00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:25,480 Speaker 3: him and because I like him. It really like bothered me. 664 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 3: And I talked to one of his friends last night 665 00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:31,440 Speaker 3: and we talked about it, and hopefully that'll that'll get better. 666 00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:37,760 Speaker 3: But I you know, this show, I don't think people 667 00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 3: understand what sports radio is. I think one of the 668 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:44,200 Speaker 3: cool things about KSR is because it has become so universal, 669 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:47,200 Speaker 3: it is listened to so much more than other sports shows. 670 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 3: We get held to a standard that like, I don't 671 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 3: think anybody else gets held to. Does anyone Shannon turn 672 00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:59,240 Speaker 3: on the other sports shows in this town. No, I mean, 673 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:03,720 Speaker 3: but if you did listen, they're all more negative than 674 00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 3: we are. 675 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:07,440 Speaker 5: I was driving yesterday with Abbey. We were going to lunch. 676 00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:08,960 Speaker 4: We were listening to the show and they were going 677 00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:10,600 Speaker 4: off pretty gong on Kentucky basketball, and I was like, 678 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:12,680 Speaker 4: I haven't said anything half this song. 679 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 2: I mean, I like Alan Cutler, but he's more negative 680 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:18,000 Speaker 2: than me. Yeah, he's got no filter. 681 00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:21,120 Speaker 3: The guys in the Louisville market that do Kentucky are 682 00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:25,040 Speaker 3: much more negative than me. They mock me for not 683 00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:29,080 Speaker 3: being negative enough. I'm not even the most negative person 684 00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:29,880 Speaker 3: on this show. 685 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:33,600 Speaker 2: I love him. But Ryan has been in football and 686 00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:35,400 Speaker 2: Drew was in basketball this year. 687 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:37,880 Speaker 4: Yesterday people were mad at me because Frank didn't make 688 00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:40,080 Speaker 4: an appearance. It's like, I'm not just gonna start yelling at. 689 00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 5: The wall, and I'm mad. 690 00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:45,000 Speaker 2: I'm really at a loss. 691 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:46,520 Speaker 3: For what some portions. I mean, we still have a lawyer. 692 00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:48,360 Speaker 3: I mean, like most of you all have been wonderful, 693 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:51,480 Speaker 3: even in the comment but in like comments. But I 694 00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:57,680 Speaker 3: don't know what exactly people want us to do. You know, Matt, 695 00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:00,680 Speaker 3: you ran off cal Matt, you didn't run off Stoops 696 00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:05,040 Speaker 3: fast enough. Matt loved Mitch, Matt hated Mitch. Matt is 697 00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:09,360 Speaker 3: running Pope off. Matt should call for Pope's job, Shannon, 698 00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:10,160 Speaker 3: I'm not oz. 699 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:12,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, we don't get to make those calls. 700 00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:15,799 Speaker 3: I can only give my opinion, and you know what 701 00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:20,320 Speaker 3: I agree with. I agree with DeMarcus and I agree 702 00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:23,919 Speaker 3: with Derek like I don't. No, I don't know any 703 00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:27,759 Speaker 3: more than anybody else. I'm just part of a show 704 00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:31,920 Speaker 3: that hopefully is entertaining. But I am a loss when 705 00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:34,560 Speaker 3: it comes to this is now a former UK football player. 706 00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:39,680 Speaker 3: And then with DeMarcus, like, I don't know what people 707 00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:43,799 Speaker 3: want those people. I know what the fans want, but 708 00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:47,879 Speaker 3: I don't really know. Ryan, You've done this longer than 709 00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 3: I have. And then there's the part of it that 710 00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:53,040 Speaker 3: like and I love you all, but like Ryan can 711 00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:55,000 Speaker 3: say something and then it's me that gets yelled at. 712 00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:57,719 Speaker 2: Guilty about association. 713 00:34:57,920 --> 00:34:58,399 Speaker 10: You know that. 714 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:02,120 Speaker 1: Philosopher said the whim blows hardest at the top of 715 00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:04,480 Speaker 1: the flag pole. You're at the top of the flag pole. 716 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:08,160 Speaker 3: I get it, But unlike these other people, I can't 717 00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:11,279 Speaker 3: control the games. 718 00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:14,920 Speaker 4: If we didn't exist, Kentucky still would have lost fourteen games, 719 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:17,319 Speaker 4: but I guess I would still have this. 720 00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:19,040 Speaker 2: I don't think that's the case. 721 00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:21,040 Speaker 5: That's crazy. 722 00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 3: It is crazy, but like Matt's fault or Ksr's fault, 723 00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:26,719 Speaker 3: and I know, and to some extent, I guess it 724 00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:30,279 Speaker 3: sounds like I'm like, you know, whining, and maybe I 725 00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:32,839 Speaker 3: am because of this. These last few days abummed me out, 726 00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:37,879 Speaker 3: Like I I really enjoy interacting with fans, but I'm 727 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:40,160 Speaker 3: just gonna have to stop outside of the text machine 728 00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:45,080 Speaker 3: because I the amount of people I had a teacher 729 00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:48,960 Speaker 3: of mine from school who I saw say something about 730 00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:50,719 Speaker 3: Matt Jones. I wrote them and they were like, oh, 731 00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:51,640 Speaker 3: I didn't know that was you. 732 00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:56,319 Speaker 1: Matt Jones is really an uncommon name. 733 00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:58,440 Speaker 3: Well, I mean I went by Matthew when I was 734 00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:01,799 Speaker 3: in school. So but I'm just saying, like, you know, 735 00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:06,879 Speaker 3: so listen to Derek. You know, I certainly don't think 736 00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:09,880 Speaker 3: anyone on this show has been at all personal to Jasper. 737 00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:13,440 Speaker 3: I think Jasper's I wish him nothing but success. At 738 00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:19,120 Speaker 3: the same time, though, when he's playing, you can't do 739 00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:24,520 Speaker 3: this job and not have criticism. And if a random 740 00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:27,920 Speaker 3: person on the Internet says something mean to a player, 741 00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:32,440 Speaker 3: that's awful. But it's not Shannon's fault. 742 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:34,319 Speaker 1: You can blame me if you want, though I don't 743 00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:37,279 Speaker 1: care well, so it's hard to ignore it when it's 744 00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:39,959 Speaker 1: your family or if somebody you're close to, you know. 745 00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:44,680 Speaker 2: But you went through it with Dane. Yeah right, and. 746 00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:47,280 Speaker 1: I just started just ignoring blocking people. 747 00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:51,000 Speaker 2: But you also didn't blame Alan Color for it. 748 00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:55,360 Speaker 1: I blame Color for everything. No, No, I'm just kidding. 749 00:36:55,719 --> 00:36:59,239 Speaker 3: So anyway, you know, it is what it is. When 750 00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:01,680 Speaker 3: I saw that, I was like, that stinks. 751 00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:04,240 Speaker 1: It's tough. It's kind of tough to talk about. 752 00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:08,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. But for the Johnson family, there's 753 00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:12,120 Speaker 3: been very few people that are more legendary athletic families 754 00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:13,239 Speaker 3: in Kentucky than that one. 755 00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:16,840 Speaker 5: Yep, And uh, you know, I'll leave us aside. 756 00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 4: I just hate that the Johnsons, of all people have 757 00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:21,480 Speaker 4: had a negative experience, not even fans, just Jasper not 758 00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:23,680 Speaker 4: having the year he wanted. If any family deserve to 759 00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:26,320 Speaker 4: have another kid have a good run. 760 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:28,640 Speaker 2: I agree with you they were the one. 761 00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:31,480 Speaker 1: Yep. So wish you could have a redo. 762 00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:34,239 Speaker 2: That's probably the best way to say. It probably would 763 00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:36,360 Speaker 2: be better if everybody could have a redo. It doesn't 764 00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:38,479 Speaker 2: look like, though, after those comments that he will be back. 765 00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:39,560 Speaker 2: Was that fair to say? 766 00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:43,239 Speaker 1: I'd say the Beny nods are high that he won't 767 00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:43,879 Speaker 1: be back. Yeah. 768 00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:45,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. 769 00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:47,800 Speaker 3: H Clark's Pumping Shop if you would like to get gas, 770 00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:50,240 Speaker 3: Clark's Reward, apps, food, coffee, whatever. 771 00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:51,200 Speaker 2: Clark's Pumping Shop. 772 00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:53,279 Speaker 3: They got snacks, they got drinks, they got ice, they 773 00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:57,720 Speaker 3: got cold weather essentials.

Yeah one, you are. I love you, 782 00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:22,799 Speaker 3: but you are too negative. You turned your back on 783 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:26,120 Speaker 3: Stoops way too soon. Next one, I don't think you're 784 00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:28,640 Speaker 3: too negative. Of all, you stayed with Stoops way too long. 785 00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:31,640 Speaker 1: The damn if you do, damn if you damn if 786 00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:32,000 Speaker 1: you do, you. 787 00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:32,600 Speaker 2: Damned if you don't. 788 00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:34,799 Speaker 3: One person says, Matt, you should just say what you 789 00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:37,640 Speaker 3: think and then the reaction is what it is and 790 00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:40,319 Speaker 3: tell everybody to deal with it. Yeah, that's easy for 791 00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:42,360 Speaker 3: people to say. But like, unfortunately, I'm not like that. 792 00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:44,520 Speaker 3: Like again, I don't think a lot of people listen 793 00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:46,680 Speaker 3: to a lot of sports talk radio Shannon to hear 794 00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:49,200 Speaker 3: what other people are like, like a lot of sports 795 00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:49,760 Speaker 3: talk radios. 796 00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:50,680 Speaker 2: Like this is my opinion. 797 00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:54,040 Speaker 3: Middle fingers up to everybody that disagrees, Like I just 798 00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:54,680 Speaker 3: can't do that. 799 00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:55,000 Speaker 9: No. 800 00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:57,440 Speaker 1: Listening to Mike Francessa was the most up lesson to 801 00:38:57,480 --> 00:38:58,960 Speaker 1: any other sports talk showing. 802 00:38:58,719 --> 00:39:02,160 Speaker 3: I just can't do that. Like I'll admit, like I'm 803 00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:04,400 Speaker 3: probably much more vulnerable than a lot of people in 804 00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:07,439 Speaker 3: these in these jobs, like I don't want I don't 805 00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:10,680 Speaker 3: want to fight with people. I really don't, especially with 806 00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:13,279 Speaker 3: the UK people, cause like I want them to win. 807 00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:15,280 Speaker 3: But on the same time, when you see Mitch Barnhart 808 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:18,160 Speaker 3: get two million dollars with no explanation, you have a choice. 809 00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:21,960 Speaker 3: Do you say something about it and then maybe it 810 00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:26,960 Speaker 3: gets corrected, or do you say nothing and then people go, 811 00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:32,920 Speaker 3: you're just a mouthpiece for the university. Either way, you 812 00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:38,439 Speaker 3: become the boogeyman. And you know, I'll admit, Ryan, it sucks. 813 00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:39,880 Speaker 3: And the good thing for people is we'll do the 814 00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:42,840 Speaker 3: show tomorrow and then I'm gone for six days and 815 00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:44,520 Speaker 3: no one will have to hear my opinion for a 816 00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:45,719 Speaker 3: little bit, so that'll be good. 817 00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:48,319 Speaker 1: Things are so much better when you just win. You know, 818 00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:50,760 Speaker 1: when you're rolling, you know, people overlook a lot of things. 819 00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:52,480 Speaker 1: But when things are going bad and you lose. 820 00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:59,040 Speaker 3: Friday's postgame show was fun, huh the no, I mean 821 00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:00,800 Speaker 3: when we were in Saint Louis Us at that bar. 822 00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:02,680 Speaker 1: After fun, it was awesome. 823 00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:04,560 Speaker 2: That was just one Yeah, yeah, it was a lot 824 00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:06,560 Speaker 2: of fun.

So, I was listening to you know, Pope's 826 00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:18,319 Speaker 8: Collins Show again last night, and something that stood out 827 00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:21,680 Speaker 8: to me regarding Jasper Johnson is Bope was talking about 828 00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:23,920 Speaker 8: how guys had to play out a position a lot, 829 00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:27,560 Speaker 8: and he said that he used Jasper as his example, 830 00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:29,919 Speaker 8: and he said, you know, Jasper was having to run 831 00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:32,480 Speaker 8: point a lot. He's not really a point guard and 832 00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:36,240 Speaker 8: he couldn't play off ball and cut and slash and shoot. 833 00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:39,440 Speaker 8: But I don't understand why he couldn't, Like we never 834 00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:43,239 Speaker 8: saw him play with Aberdeen. Why did he always have 835 00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:46,680 Speaker 8: to back up Aberdeen as a point guard? Why couldn't 836 00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:48,240 Speaker 8: he have played alongside Aberdeen? 837 00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:51,000 Speaker 2: Maybe I heard Pope say that too. 838 00:40:51,120 --> 00:40:53,319 Speaker 3: I guess what I don't understand is in Pope's mind, 839 00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:56,160 Speaker 3: who was the backup point guard? Because he said over 840 00:40:56,200 --> 00:40:58,439 Speaker 3: and over Aberdeen wasn't supposed to be the point guard 841 00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:02,320 Speaker 3: and neither was Jasper. So he couldn't have thought Jayalen 842 00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:04,080 Speaker 3: Lowe was going to play forty minutes a game. 843 00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:07,960 Speaker 1: They tried it earlier that Colin Chandler was gonna supposed 844 00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:09,839 Speaker 1: to be the backup point guard and that didn't work. 845 00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:10,879 Speaker 1: It found out pretty quickly. 846 00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:12,360 Speaker 5: So when he learned that November. 847 00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:14,360 Speaker 3: So when he says people had to play out a position, 848 00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:16,360 Speaker 3: I guess part of my question is, well, what was 849 00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:20,879 Speaker 3: the mindset of what it was gonna because I don't 850 00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:23,480 Speaker 3: know if Aberdeen wasn't supposed to be the point guard 851 00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:27,840 Speaker 3: and Jasper wasn't and Chandler wasn't, who was. And he 852 00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:30,360 Speaker 3: can't just say Travis Perry and a Kayden Lewis because 853 00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:32,760 Speaker 3: they left in like May. You had a whole summer 854 00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:35,040 Speaker 3: to get somebody you went and got yell of it, right. 855 00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:38,640 Speaker 1: Yeah. I remember we had this conversation like in October November, 856 00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:41,840 Speaker 1: and I think the plan was after Low it was 857 00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:44,520 Speaker 1: going to be by committee with Chandler, Aberdeen, Jasper and 858 00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:46,359 Speaker 1: oh Way. That thought that just by committee they could 859 00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:48,000 Speaker 1: get one of those guys to just fill in a 860 00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:49,040 Speaker 1: couple of minutes if needed. 861 00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:52,279 Speaker 3: I mean, it's fair, but then it can't be the case. 862 00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:54,080 Speaker 3: I appreciate the call that no one was out of 863 00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:56,680 Speaker 3: everyone was out of position.
