1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:05,800
Speaker 1: Well, Ryan Lemon here local teller leaders KSR postgame show.

2
00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:10,320
Speaker 1: I am like each and every one of you listening

3
00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:13,399
Speaker 1: right now. You may be driving home from the game,

4
00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:17,040
Speaker 1: you may be stuck in traffic, you may be up

5
00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:18,599
Speaker 1: at home and you can't go to sleep for what

6
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:21,760
Speaker 1: you just saw. And I am like each and every

7
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:27,160
Speaker 1: one of you, asking myself, what in the heck is

8
00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:32,839
Speaker 1: going on? What in the world has happened to our

9
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:39,160
Speaker 1: football team? And if you just heard Mark Stoops, he's

10
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:42,240
Speaker 1: not sure either. If you just heard Dick Gabriel and

11
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:48,280
Speaker 1: Jeff Piccarl and Tom Leach, they're not sure either. Something

12
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:55,120
Speaker 1: has happened to our football team that I still believe

13
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:58,000
Speaker 1: is the most talent Mark Stoops has had since he's

14
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 1: been here on one team. But how can you lose

15
00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:10,040
Speaker 1: with his now seven straight SEC home games, seventh straight,

16
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:16,480
Speaker 1: oh and four this year SEC home games, and you

17
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:20,680
Speaker 1: are now in your last thirteen SEC home games two

18
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:25,320
Speaker 1: and eleven. I don't know, man, I don't know what

19
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 1: has happened. I'm upset, I'm mad, I'm disappointed, I'm embarrassed.

20
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:40,200
Speaker 1: I'm I'm embarrassed that these this this three game stretch. Well,

21
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,319
Speaker 1: let's let's back it up a little more. You went

22
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 1: down and you beat ole miss on the road and

23
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 1: held them to half of their six hundred yard average.

24
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 1: You held them to around three hundred yards of offense.

25
00:01:55,640 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 1: Since then, you let Vandy man handle you. They punked

26
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:05,680
Speaker 1: you on your own field. You went down to Florida

27
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:11,200
Speaker 1: and you stunk it up against a struggling Florida team.

28
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 1: And then here comes Auburn that's been struggling, one of

29
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 1: the worst records in the SEC, and they ran all

30
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 1: over you. Your first three possessions, you hold them. Defense

31
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:32,640
Speaker 1: held for three and out on the first possession, right

32
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:40,400
Speaker 1: then they got the interception by Waller and then turnover

33
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 1: on downs on the third position. So Auburn's first three

34
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 1: possessions defense looks awesome. Three and out, an interception, turnover

35
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 1: on downs. After that they start handing the ball to

36
00:02:54,080 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 1: the Hunter guy. You couldn't stop him. Your defense that

37
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 1: everybody's been bragging on that I got fussed at today

38
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 1: on the pregame show and I said, I don't know

39
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 1: why we're patting his defense on the back here. Lately,

40
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 1: they fell apart and could not stop runner jark Quz Hunter,

41
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 1: who now has the most rushing yards against Kentucky in

42
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 1: the history of CommonWell Stadium slash Croger Field. It's not

43
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:32,240
Speaker 1: herschel Walker, it's not Bo Jackson, it's not George Rogers,

44
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 1: it's not Emmitt Smith. It's Jark Quas Hunter ran for

45
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 1: two hundred and seventy eight yards most ever at Kroger

46
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 1: Field and Auburn on I'm just go to some of

47
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 1: the defense, just for a minute. Auburn major defense look horrible.

48
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 1: I mean, I know we lost JJ Reaver, Derreck Jackson,

49
00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 1: Maxwell Harrison's not out there, doesn't matter. You got enough

50
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,480
Speaker 1: talent out there. You should not let Auburn run all

51
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 1: over you that last there's last two drives. They went

52
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:11,000
Speaker 1: what eighty yards and ninety yards on back to back drives.

53
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 1: I think something like that offense. I mean, I know

54
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 1: our quarterback kind of struggled Brock did in the first half,

55
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,599
Speaker 1: but then you make the switch at halftime and give

56
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 1: the ball to Gavin wimstt wimset and it's like, all

57
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 1: of a sudden, there's no no And it's not Gavin

58
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,039
Speaker 1: Wimson's fault. I'm not want to say it's his fault,

59
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:37,280
Speaker 1: but there was no urgency there was no sense of urgency,

60
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:41,039
Speaker 1: there was no rhythm, there was no there was nothing.

61
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 1: Three and out looked bad. And some of it's going

62
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,039
Speaker 1: on the play calling. I don't know why. I think

63
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:54,640
Speaker 1: it was Gimpson's second drive out there. Will Cox and

64
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:58,320
Speaker 1: Patterson didn't even touch the ball. You got two guys

65
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 1: that are running the ball pretty well, didn't even touch

66
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:08,279
Speaker 1: the ball. They threw three, three long balls in that

67
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:12,040
Speaker 1: one possession. It was an awful possession. It was an

68
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:16,920
Speaker 1: awful game. It was an awful performance. And now Kentucky

69
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:20,680
Speaker 1: is probably not gonna go to a bowl game. One

70
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:25,359
Speaker 1: in five in the sec three and five overall, and

71
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,040
Speaker 1: the way they're playing, you think they're gonna go down

72
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 1: and beat Tennessee and Knoxville. No, you think they go

73
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 1: down and beat Texas and Texas. No, you think they

74
00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:38,160
Speaker 1: can beat Louisville. Probably not. So the bow streak is

75
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:41,159
Speaker 1: going to end. And to be honest, they don't deserve

76
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,880
Speaker 1: to go to a bowl game. They have the talent

77
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 1: where they should be going to a bowl game. They

78
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 1: don't deserve it the way they've played. And I know, well,

79
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,920
Speaker 1: I'm at Chaos Bar and grill right now, and our

80
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:58,280
Speaker 1: bar is full of people that are in here because

81
00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:03,920
Speaker 1: they're mad, they're upset. We love this team, we love

82
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,839
Speaker 1: Mark Stoops, but people are not happy. Now. I know

83
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:09,360
Speaker 1: we got a couple of Auburn fans in here and

84
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:13,600
Speaker 1: they're celebrating. But I'm just looking at these guys' faces

85
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 1: in here, and we're all just like, we didn't just

86
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 1: get punched in the punched in the stomach. We've been

87
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 1: punched in the crotch. We've been kicked in the crotch

88
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:27,480
Speaker 1: tonight and it hurts and it's not a good feeling,

89
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 1: especially after what we've experienced lately with our UK football program.

90
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:36,920
Speaker 1: So I, like I said, I say here and listen

91
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:40,440
Speaker 1: to the postgame show and listen to Jeff and Tom

92
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 1: and Dick kind of break it down and nobody seems

93
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 1: to know the answer how of how to fix it

94
00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 1: what's wrong? And I don't either. And then when I

95
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,479
Speaker 1: heard Mark Stoops come on, you know, he said some

96
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 1: things I want my coach to say. You know, he

97
00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:03,040
Speaker 1: sounds he sounds hurt. You know, he didn't make any excuses.

98
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 1: He kind of owned up to everything. That's the right,

99
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,359
Speaker 1: that's the right way to handle it, because life is

100
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 1: not good. But the UK football team. Our studio engineer

101
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 1: Billy Rutledge is uh he joined us. Billy before we

102
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 1: get some phone calls, what was your take on everything

103
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 1: that transpired tonight over there at Kergerfield.

104
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:24,320
Speaker 2: You know, I think you'd hit the nail on the

105
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:26,320
Speaker 2: head in the beginning when you talked about how much

106
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 2: talent this roster has and how is it possible that

107
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 2: they could be this bad this late in the year.

108
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:34,560
Speaker 2: It's a failure f A.

109
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:35,640
Speaker 1: I l U R E.

110
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 2: Ryan, There's no other way to put it. And I

111
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 2: do want to give some props to our guy Dame

112
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 2: t though. If there was one bright spot today, it

113
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 2: was your man who is going to be playing on

114
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 2: Sundays one of these days.

115
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:46,400
Speaker 3: Ryan.

116
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,440
Speaker 2: That was an incredible performance on him, and I give

117
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 2: him a lot of credit for not only that, but

118
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 2: doing the postgame interview with Jeff afterwards.

119
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,840
Speaker 1: I appreciate you saying that because obviously I think when

120
00:07:56,880 --> 00:08:01,720
Speaker 1: I brag on him, they I think he gets misconscrewed sometimes.

121
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 1: But he did miss great, played great. He's been playing

122
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 1: great all season and I would hate to think where

123
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:13,160
Speaker 1: this football team would be without him because he is

124
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 1: the only constant on offense. That this team has had

125
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:17,320
Speaker 1: all season.

126
00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 2: You're right, I mean, take away a penalty. They had

127
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 2: three yards in two drives in the third quarter. I

128
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 2: mean when Auburn was going fourteen plays, seventy five yards,

129
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 2: seven plus minutes, winning the middle eight. Yep, it was

130
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,280
Speaker 2: Kentucky that just laid down.

131
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 1: And they you know, they got they got a break

132
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:41,319
Speaker 1: right before halftime where they got the sack and Vandy

133
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 1: couldn't get the field goal unit out there in time,

134
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:46,560
Speaker 1: so it went into halftime tied at ten. I thought

135
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:49,760
Speaker 1: that was huge. I remember I told Dante, I said, man,

136
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,200
Speaker 1: if they can just come out and get a stop,

137
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 1: because Vanderbilt got the ball to start the second half,

138
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 1: I said, if Kentucky can just get a stop, you know,

139
00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:00,280
Speaker 1: they can maybe do some damage here. Well, like you said,

140
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:03,439
Speaker 1: they let Vandy go the length of the field pretty

141
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 1: much and take seven minutes off the clock.

142
00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,320
Speaker 2: And not only that, it was on eight straight run

143
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,280
Speaker 2: plays to start that drive, they just ran right up

144
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:12,480
Speaker 2: the middle on us Ryan.

145
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:16,719
Speaker 1: I would too. They our run defense was awful. I mean,

146
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:21,079
Speaker 1: this great defense we've bragged so much about was awful. Hunter.

147
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 1: They couldn't stop him. Aupron did the right thing. They

148
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 1: kept giving it to him because Kentucky sure wasn't gonna

149
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 1: toss stop him.

150
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, twenty three carries, two hundred and seventy eight yards,

151
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 2: two touchdowns. You just you couldn't do anything to stop

152
00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:37,240
Speaker 2: a guy. And again you can't score inside the five

153
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 2: yard line. How bad is that?

154
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 1: That's the third time now that has happened. Three out

155
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 1: of the last what four games? We've had it inside

156
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:51,439
Speaker 1: the five first and goal and can't puch can't get

157
00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:52,080
Speaker 1: a touchdown.

158
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:54,560
Speaker 2: I mean, Kentucky got a lot of breaks in this game,

159
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:56,520
Speaker 2: like you said, the end of the first half, their

160
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 2: kicker missed a field goal in the second half to

161
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:02,439
Speaker 2: keep Kentucky in the game, and they just didn't take

162
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:05,440
Speaker 2: advantage of any of it. And it feels like the

163
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 2: end of the season.

164
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 1: It does, you know that. That's You're right, it does,

165
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 1: And I think that's why I feel so dejected. This

166
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:15,360
Speaker 1: season's over. They are not going to a bowl game.

167
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 1: Even if they beat Louisville. I'm still not gonna be

168
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 1: happy with what has happened. This season started out great well.

169
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 1: First of all, late arriving crowd, Billy, I mean, it

170
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,440
Speaker 1: was a very late arriving crowd, like the seats didn't

171
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:36,480
Speaker 1: get filled until they're lining up for the opening kickoff.

172
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:40,960
Speaker 1: There was no excitement in that stadium, no energy, no

173
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,679
Speaker 1: buzz at all until kickoff, and then everybody finally got

174
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 1: there and there was a buzz. They hold, you know,

175
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,480
Speaker 1: they hold them to three and out get the ball, boom,

176
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:52,960
Speaker 1: you get a field goal. I think, well, maybe they

177
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:55,200
Speaker 1: Kentucky scored first, got the field goal, held them to

178
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,200
Speaker 1: three and out, got the ball back and scored a

179
00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:59,679
Speaker 1: touchdown if ten to nothing, and the stadium's kind of

180
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 1: a lie. But then the next seven possessions zero points zero.

181
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 2: It was awful, Yeah, it really was. And then you know,

182
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:14,480
Speaker 2: Brock through one of the worst interceptions I've seen this year.

183
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:16,200
Speaker 1: Oh that was bad. Uh.

184
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 2: And then after that in the second half, they go

185
00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 2: to Gavin wims At and he really didn't do much,

186
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:23,200
Speaker 2: if at anything at all.

187
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 1: So the offense and again I'm not gonna say anything

188
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:30,679
Speaker 1: bad but against Gavin Wimson, but the offense stalled. There

189
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 1: was no urgency. They're running the play clock down to

190
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,040
Speaker 1: the final seconds where they snapped the ball and there

191
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 1: you know, you're down two touchdowns. I mean, I just

192
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:41,640
Speaker 1: don't understand some of the play calls and the way

193
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 1: the offense is being.

194
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:46,040
Speaker 2: Run against a bad Auburn team, Ryan against the team

195
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 2: that had won a game in the conference. Now you're

196
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:49,680
Speaker 2: the worst team in the conference.

197
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 1: It's Kentucky and Mississippi State. They maybe they need to

198
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:57,199
Speaker 1: meet for the Egg Bowl, Cereal Bowl or whatever to

199
00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:01,160
Speaker 1: see who's the worst in the SEC. Look, and I know,

200
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:05,239
Speaker 1: like we're gonna get a lot of bad calls. It's deserved,

201
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,360
Speaker 1: you know. We'll try to let everybody speak their piece.

202
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:11,560
Speaker 1: Eight five nine two eight two tweet said we'll take

203

205
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 1: We'll be right back. Welcome back Local Total deaders KSR

206
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:22,880
Speaker 1: postgame show. Cats lose twenty four to ten to a

207
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:27,439
Speaker 1: bad band Auburn team almost said Vanderbilt. They've already lost

208

211
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,120
Speaker 1: So we're gonna get everybody on, but I'll try to read.

212
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 1: We're getting a lot of text messages and things two

213
00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:52,319
Speaker 1: and tweet stuff. I'll try to kind of mi mix

214
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:54,440
Speaker 1: them in as we go. I'm gonna read this one.

215
00:12:55,320 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 1: It says, it's just incredibly disappointing how this season has

216
00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 1: crumbled over the last few weeks, and I can't imagine

217
00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:08,559
Speaker 1: how fans mentally can recover from this. That sums it up,

218
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:11,120
Speaker 1: and that's that's how I feel. I feel like the

219
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 1: season is over and I don't know what can make me. Well.

220
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 1: Of course they go down to beat Tennessee, I'm going

221
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 1: to be like, yeah, I'm back onboard, and at this moment,

222
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:25,440
Speaker 1: I'm not feeling it. So do you agree with that season?

223
00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:30,160
Speaker 1: With that what they said, Billy, that fans mentally are

224
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,160
Speaker 1: going to have a hard time recovering from what we've

225
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:33,520
Speaker 1: just seen these last three weeks.

226
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:36,079
Speaker 2: Yeah, I no doubt. But that's not out of line.

227
00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:38,520
Speaker 2: I mean, you looked at this three game stretch and

228
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:40,280
Speaker 2: you licked your lips a little bit, you know what

229
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 2: I mean. Vandy Florida amor And that's doable. You can

230
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,720
Speaker 2: set yourself up and have a big game at Tennessee

231
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,559
Speaker 2: or at Texas. But now you're looking at a game

232
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 2: versus Murray State where there may not be a lot

233
00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:51,360
Speaker 2: of people in the crowd.

234
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:56,520
Speaker 1: Man, after the Ole Miss win, we were talking possibly

235
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,079
Speaker 1: going get a chance to get in the playoffs nine

236
00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:02,960
Speaker 1: and three because they were gonna win these next three games, Vanderbilt,

237
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:11,240
Speaker 1: Florida and Auburn. That seems ridiculous. Now that's how things change,

238
00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:15,240
Speaker 1: and nobody seems to know what is the reason why.

239
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:16,720
Speaker 1: All right, it's go to the phone lines. Billy, who's

240
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 1: our first caller? Stub, Stub, go ahead, Stub.

241
00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 4: Hey guys, Hey, Stubb, you know what you know what

242
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 4: Bill Parcels used to say, you are what your record

243
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,960
Speaker 4: says you are. They just don't have the players.

244
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:41,320
Speaker 5: They've got some talent, They've got good skill, uh players,

245
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 5: but the offensive line is not very good. It comes

246
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 5: down to Demmies and Joe's. They don't have a good

247
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:55,960
Speaker 5: offensive line and they're just not very good. Also, what

248
00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:57,920
Speaker 5: do you think will be the over under on the

249
00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:01,360
Speaker 5: attendance of the Murray State game? Twenty five thousand?

250
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:02,800
Speaker 4: Over or under?

251
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 1: Appreciate the phone call, Stub, I mean it'll probably be

252
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:13,440
Speaker 1: over twenty five thousand. It's you know, they should be

253
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:18,320
Speaker 1: able to get that. But Billy, after that last uh

254
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:23,840
Speaker 1: interception in the fourth quarter on the goal line. On

255
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 1: the goal line, the interception it uh, it emptied out

256
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:32,680
Speaker 1: really really really fast. And they were definitely less than

257
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,360
Speaker 1: twenty five thousand people there by the end of the game. Oh.

258
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,360
Speaker 2: What was What was maddening for me was you were

259
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:41,040
Speaker 2: down two possessions and every time you were snapping the ball,

260
00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 2: there was one second left on the play clockency I

261
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:47,400
Speaker 2: mean Tom and Jeff screaming into the MIC's like, let's go,

262
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 2: let's get this offense rolling.

263
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 1: I am with you. I don't understand how they could.

264
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,760
Speaker 1: You're down two touchdowns. You got to be playing a

265
00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:58,440
Speaker 1: little more up tempo, and you're what you're taking the

266
00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:01,240
Speaker 1: clock down of the final second before he snapped the ball.

267
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:04,280
Speaker 2: I was surprised they benched Brock like that.

268
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:07,200
Speaker 1: I mean he, I mean he didn't he didn't play

269
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:08,720
Speaker 1: well in the first half. He you know, he had

270
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:12,160
Speaker 1: a bad half. He threw a really bad long ball

271
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:15,760
Speaker 1: to the burryon that he threw one to Dane. It

272
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 1: was about three feet from behind. Dame was cutting across

273
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:19,680
Speaker 1: the middle and threw it like three feet behind him.

274
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 1: He made a really bad interception, and I think, well,

275
00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:28,160
Speaker 1: here's what I know. That's why I picked Gavin Wibson

276
00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:31,040
Speaker 1: as my MVP, because he was supposed to come in

277
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:34,320
Speaker 1: like the third series, not just for a play for

278
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:39,360
Speaker 1: a series, and I just felt like, you know, maybe

279
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:41,800
Speaker 1: he was gonna run the ball a lot. Well, they

280
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:43,800
Speaker 1: must they must have changed their mind. They scored, you know,

281
00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 1: they're just scored in their first two possessions. So he

282
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:49,560
Speaker 1: didn't come in and just periodically until the second half,

283
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 1: they thought they gave him the keys over, so okay,

284
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,520
Speaker 1: we're gonna run a series with you kept him in there.

285
00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:58,200
Speaker 1: That's second series that he was in when will Cox

286
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,760
Speaker 1: and Patterson didn't even touch the ball and they threw

287
00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:04,200
Speaker 1: like three deep balls. They weren't even close. I mean,

288
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:07,359
Speaker 1: I don't know, man, I just wonder where some heads

289
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:11,240
Speaker 1: are at. Okay, who's next phone call? Ethan, Ethan, go ahead, Ethan.

290
00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,960
Speaker 6: Hey, so we're at the point where the fan base

291
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,119
Speaker 6: is like, we'd be happy with making the great value

292
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 6: Torkilla chip bowl, and that's just it's just so embarrassing.

293
00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:27,119
Speaker 6: And I get this, maybe putting you on the spot,

294
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:28,880
Speaker 6: so it might be a better question almost for Billy,

295
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:32,080
Speaker 6: but like, if you're a parent of one of these

296
00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 6: players that might be playing on Sundays one day. What

297
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:37,879
Speaker 6: are you saying to your kid whenever that transfer portal

298
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:43,639
Speaker 6: opens up? Like, I don't see, because I mean, it's

299
00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,480
Speaker 6: it's just pitiful being on this team anymore. It's like

300
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:52,440
Speaker 6: you're not helping yourself in any way. Like this game

301
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,200
Speaker 6: here in a couple of weeks is gonna look like

302
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:56,040
Speaker 6: a Thursday night JV's football game.

303
00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:57,320
Speaker 4: I've got season tickets.

304
00:17:57,920 --> 00:17:59,879
Speaker 6: No part of me wants to drive two hours to

305
00:17:59,880 --> 00:18:02,879
Speaker 6: go watch this team play. It's beautiful.

306
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:09,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, appreciate the phone call. You know it, this this

307
00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:13,480
Speaker 1: passed offseason before the season started. You don't think Dion Walker,

308
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:18,640
Speaker 1: dayne Key, Barryon Brown, Maxwell Harrison. They had other schools

309
00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:22,080
Speaker 1: courting them. They those four guys are gonna play in

310
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:24,840
Speaker 1: the NFL. They all could have left, They all could

311
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:28,720
Speaker 1: have transferred, played somewhere else. They all chose to stay here.

312
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:33,520
Speaker 1: They believed in what was going on here, the culture here.

313
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:40,720
Speaker 1: But something has happened, something has changed, and I honestly

314
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:48,520
Speaker 1: believe nobody knows what the answer is to this problem.

315
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:50,880
Speaker 2: Well, it works the other way too, because I don't

316
00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:54,400
Speaker 2: think Dion Walker's earning the Bukuo nil dollars that Kentucky

317
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 2: gave him. Right, he's not the word Brock Vandergriff, He's not.

318
00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:02,200
Speaker 2: I mean it goes both ways. But if I'm talking

319
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:05,040
Speaker 2: to my son or daughter that could be potentially making

320
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:08,240
Speaker 2: a million dollars elsewhere if the transfer portals open, I'd say,

321
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:09,800
Speaker 2: you have to do what's best for you, right.

322
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:15,120
Speaker 1: Yes, I think you know, we've got some good young

323
00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:18,119
Speaker 1: talent on this team that'll probably be hearing from some

324
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:22,240
Speaker 1: other schools and using now against us. Like man, you

325
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 1: don't want to play for them, you know. They just

326
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:27,280
Speaker 1: they lost to Vandy, Auburn, and Florida, three teams that

327
00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:29,960
Speaker 1: maybe have losing records in the SEC when the season

328
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,440
Speaker 1: is all said and done. Although Vandy looked good again today.

329
00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,240
Speaker 2: It's like Iowa football, Ryan, except you're not winning any games.

330
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:38,280
Speaker 1: Who's the next phone call, Matt? Matt?

331
00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:42,720
Speaker 4: Go ahead, Matt, Hey, Ryan, how's it going?

332
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:44,480
Speaker 1: Not well? Matt? How are you doing?

333
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 3: You know?

334
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:50,280
Speaker 7: Down here in Nashville, Tennessee, we're holding it down as

335
00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:51,080
Speaker 7: much as we can.

336
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:52,920
Speaker 4: But you know, with all these.

337
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,840
Speaker 8: Tennessee fans, these Vandy fans.

338
00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:56,680
Speaker 7: It's not going pretty good.

339
00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,360
Speaker 9: You know, I wish we would have done a whole

340
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:01,240
Speaker 9: lot better against Vanderbilt than.

341
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:02,000
Speaker 10: We actually did.

342
00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 9: You know, it seems like Vanderbilt has passed us into

343
00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:09,760
Speaker 9: SEC and we cannot get.

344
00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 4: Back on top of them.

345
00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:13,359
Speaker 10: They beat us in football, and.

346
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:15,439
Speaker 4: Who knows what is next.

347
00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:19,000
Speaker 11: You know, it just pains me to.

348
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:23,160
Speaker 9: See because this football season, we all look forward to this,

349
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:25,240
Speaker 9: We all look forward.

350
00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:27,639
Speaker 7: To the seven to eight games in.

351
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:32,720
Speaker 9: September, October, and November, and then we just lose them

352
00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:36,320
Speaker 9: all for home games, you know, I you know, I

353
00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:38,280
Speaker 9: am not to the point where I want to fire

354
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:42,159
Speaker 9: suits at all, but I want to win some dang

355
00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:42,920
Speaker 9: home games.

356
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,680
Speaker 1: Thank you so much, Ryan, Thank you, Matt appreciate it.

357
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:49,720
Speaker 1: He said what we've we've all been saying. Man, I

358
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:56,400
Speaker 1: don't know what has happened to our ability to win

359
00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 1: on your own field and play well on your home field.

360
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:03,359
Speaker 1: I don't have our ability to stop people. I don't

361
00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:04,600
Speaker 1: want to have our ability to get the ball in

362
00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:10,400
Speaker 1: the end zone. So we've played what now, six SEC games,

363
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:13,720
Speaker 1: and I think we only have six touchdowns? Is that right?

364
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:19,560
Speaker 1: Six offensive touchdowns? That right? I gotta look, I think

365
00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:21,520
Speaker 1: that's right. I think we've had six games and only

366
00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 1: scored six touchdowns, and your offense should be better than that.

367
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:31,800
Speaker 1: It is better than that. So who's next?

368
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 2: Billy Elliott?

369
00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:35,520
Speaker 1: Elliott, go ahead, Elliott.

370
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:39,560
Speaker 4: Hey, Ron, Hey, Eliott, Hey.

371
00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:44,400
Speaker 7: Is there any way to exchange my last two season

372
00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:46,720
Speaker 7: tickets for maybe a basketball game?

373
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:50,320
Speaker 1: You know we're gonna start hearing more of that, Elliott,

374
00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:53,119
Speaker 1: where people are gonna just have tuned out because basketball

375
00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:55,240
Speaker 1: season is upon us. That's just how life is here

376
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:56,359
Speaker 1: in our state.

377
00:21:56,920 --> 00:22:01,080
Speaker 7: Absolutely, yeah, it was just aggravating this. It looked like

378
00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:08,199
Speaker 7: two completely different teams from the first quarter to the

379
00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:12,600
Speaker 7: last three, and it's the same way from Georgian and

380
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:16,040
Speaker 7: Ole Miss to the rest of the season. I'm just confused,

381
00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 7: and I know everybody else is too.

382
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:23,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, appreciate phone call, man, Elliott. You're right man. In Georgia,

383
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:27,879
Speaker 1: they played Georgia, who may win the national title again

384
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:32,720
Speaker 1: to one point. You hold Georgia to thirteen points, You

385
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:35,760
Speaker 1: crushed Ohio, and then you go on the road and

386
00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:39,199
Speaker 1: you beat o Miss. Ole Miss may still get in

387
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:45,560
Speaker 1: the playoffs, and then the last three games. Man, nobody, now,

388
00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:49,640
Speaker 1: my football buddies, nobody has given me an answer. What's

389
00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:51,480
Speaker 1: gonna I did have one of my football friends text me.

390
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 1: I'm gonna read his text. I'm not gonna tell who

391
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,440
Speaker 1: it is. He said, we have a serious culture problem

392
00:22:56,520 --> 00:23:01,760
Speaker 1: with our team. M you know we heard, we've heard

393
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:09,119
Speaker 1: other former players say a leaderless team. You know, I

394
00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:12,400
Speaker 1: don't know, man, I don't. I don't think anybody knows

395
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:14,840
Speaker 1: the answer or can put their finger. Do you have

396
00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:16,520
Speaker 1: any idea, Billy, what would be your guess?

397
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:18,400
Speaker 4: Uh?

398
00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:24,159
Speaker 2: Now, it's tough. I mean when you know everybody's got

399
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:25,640
Speaker 2: a play until you get punched in the face. You've

400
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:28,040
Speaker 2: heard that a couple of times before, but I think

401
00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 2: that's amplified when you don't do the little things right,

402
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:35,720
Speaker 2: the attention to detail, the entitlement. I think we've talked

403
00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:37,240
Speaker 2: about that for the past couple of years.

404
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:38,080
Speaker 12: You know.

405
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:40,920
Speaker 2: The sad part is, you know Mark Stoops is thrown

406
00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:42,159
Speaker 2: away what he's built.

407
00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:43,760
Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Yep.

408
00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 2: The streak is ending of eight straight seasons to making

409
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:50,640
Speaker 2: a Bowl. That's impressive. That's not a lot of teams

410
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:51,520
Speaker 2: that have done that before.

411
00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:54,880
Speaker 1: I can't, like we all said, he's done things here

412
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:58,160
Speaker 1: that most people thought could never be done. Win eight

413
00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:01,159
Speaker 1: games in a season. Come on, man, not Kentucky go

414
00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:03,080
Speaker 1: to a Bowl. Game eight years in a row. That

415
00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:06,679
Speaker 1: ain't happening in Kentucky. He got the program where they

416
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 1: were beating every year South Carolina, Mississippi State, Missouri, Vanderbilt.

417
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:17,960
Speaker 1: Now those teams are punking you. Not just beating you,

418
00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:20,760
Speaker 1: they're beating you down and making you look pitiful.

419
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, this season's not living up to the standard that

420
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:24,840
Speaker 2: he built here.

421
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:28,160
Speaker 1: Amen, They're exactly right. And I think if you heard

422
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:31,480
Speaker 1: him tonight, he owned up to it. Like I said,

423
00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 1: he didn't make any excuses. That's why I like the guy. Okay,

424
00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:36,959
Speaker 1: let's get one more than go to our break, Nathan, Nathan,

425
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:37,720
Speaker 1: go ahead and Nathan.

426
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:44,480
Speaker 10: Yeah, I just want to stay. It was super disappointing

427
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:46,280
Speaker 10: to see what I.

428
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:48,960
Speaker 13: Guess my biggest disappointment is, like to see Gavin come

429
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:50,159
Speaker 13: in so early?

430
00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:54,040
Speaker 10: Does that not turn Brock off? I know we don't

431
00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:56,879
Speaker 10: have a line that that lets Brock do his thing

432
00:24:56,960 --> 00:25:00,960
Speaker 10: whatever this that, but like, just see other quarterback come

433
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:02,280
Speaker 10: in so.

434
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:04,119
Speaker 13: Soon to me, that would throw me off.

435
00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:05,800
Speaker 10: I mean I've never played college football.

436
00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:06,720
Speaker 14: I played high school.

437
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:09,280
Speaker 13: Just that my coach was to bring.

438
00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:13,200
Speaker 10: Me out on a third and so what and put

439
00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:14,000
Speaker 10: another player in.

440
00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:16,040
Speaker 13: It's just like, oh, am, I not doing the right thing,

441
00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:19,560
Speaker 13: which then again it comes back on him. And also

442
00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:23,919
Speaker 13: I want to state Dion, I mean, did he just

443
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:25,840
Speaker 13: come in and play when he wanted to play tonight?

444
00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:28,879
Speaker 13: He didn't start, so why bring him back in?

445
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:32,280
Speaker 10: Thank you all, GOKSR appreciate it.

446
00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:35,400
Speaker 1: Well, you know, Walker was hurt. He was even questionable

447
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:37,679
Speaker 1: whether he was going to play. So I give him

448
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:39,640
Speaker 1: a little credit if he's you know, toughed it out,

449
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:41,320
Speaker 1: try to get out there and play. He didn't have

450
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:44,879
Speaker 1: his best game. And I think about the quarterbacks. You know,

451
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:50,639
Speaker 1: you'll hear people argue, Billy, a two quarterback system never ever, ever, ever,

452
00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:55,199
Speaker 1: ever works. I think they wanted to use Gavin some

453
00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:58,159
Speaker 1: because there the running back room was so thin. He

454
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:00,720
Speaker 1: gave him another pair of legs. He does run the

455
00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:03,720
Speaker 1: ball pretty well. Like I said, I had heard he

456
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:07,520
Speaker 1: was gonna come in in the third series tonight regardless,

457
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:09,840
Speaker 1: and then they scored and maybe they just pushed it.

458
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:12,919
Speaker 1: Then after Brock struggled, they went ahead and throw him

459
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:15,040
Speaker 1: out there to start the second half. So but answer

460
00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:17,200
Speaker 1: the guy's question, Billy, I think yeah, I mean he

461
00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:19,320
Speaker 1: would You're not You're an athlete. You want to play,

462
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:22,760
Speaker 1: and if you get bitched. It definitely I think would

463
00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:23,480
Speaker 1: mess with your head.

464
00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:26,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you're also going to see what you have

465
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:30,520
Speaker 2: in Gavin, and you know you gotta start thinking about

466
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:31,960
Speaker 2: what you're gonna do next year. But that was a

467
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:33,680
Speaker 2: game that you could have won this year and you

468
00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:36,280
Speaker 2: still could have been bull eligible. Seems like a quick

469
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:39,120
Speaker 2: rash decision to me. But Rock made some pretty bad

470
00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:40,640
Speaker 2: plays in the first half. There's no doubt.

471

486
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:39,400
Speaker 1: Florida postgame show last week. That's right. They stunk it up,

487
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:42,840
Speaker 1: and Matt decided, Man, you know he needed to come

488
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:44,840

491
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:58,639

492
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:03,680
Speaker 1: Drew and Matt were there. Uh, there's a lot of

493
00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:05,000
Speaker 1: football ones I've done.

494
00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:08,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're not very lucky at those.

495
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:10,359
Speaker 1: No, I'm trying to even think back towards there are

496
00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:12,119
Speaker 1: some really bad ones I did over the years. I

497
00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:15,119
Speaker 1: can't remember eight five, nine, two tweets. Let's go back

498

500
00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:22,560
Speaker 1: Ryann?

501
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:24,320
Speaker 7: I know, I know.

502
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:25,879
Speaker 8: Look, I don't want to say this, and I've been

503
00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:28,520
Speaker 8: saying it for a while. Our football program we're great.

504
00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:31,960
Speaker 8: We have a great football program, great spirits around here.

505
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:36,800
Speaker 8: Our fans are awesome, like our basketball program awesome. I

506
00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:39,000
Speaker 8: just believe, like I've been saying, I called in a

507
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:41,320
Speaker 8: couple of weeks ago and said, we're stuck in neutral.

508
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:45,200
Speaker 8: But I was on the I was on y'all's YouTube

509
00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:49,520
Speaker 8: where you posted his comment and a comment on there

510
00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:51,120
Speaker 8: and said that, you know, we need a new face.

511
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:53,240
Speaker 8: It's time for a new change. His times up. We're

512
00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:56,960
Speaker 8: stuck in neutral. Somebody called back. We commented backs and pick,

513
00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:59,800
Speaker 8: We're not stucking neutral, We're stuck in reverse with suits.

514
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:02,680
Speaker 8: I mean, I don't know what's going on with this program.

515
00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:05,840
Speaker 8: I mean, I love, I say I love our football teams,

516
00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:09,040
Speaker 8: but we were way better. We're way better than what

517
00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 8: we're playing this year. And I do believe that if

518
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:14,960
Speaker 8: we had a new face, maybe you would give us

519
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:17,880
Speaker 8: a fresh start. Like y'all coming and said that, uh,

520
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:20,400
Speaker 8: you know, you don't know what's going on. Maybe it's

521
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:23,840
Speaker 8: you know, morale around the team, the spirit. Maybe if

522
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:25,720
Speaker 8: we got a new coach like we did in basketball,

523
00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:28,440
Speaker 8: maybe that you know, be a good, good head start

524
00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:30,480
Speaker 8: to it. But I appreciate y'all taking my call, and

525
00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:32,440
Speaker 8: y'all have a good rest of your night, says going home.

526
00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:34,840
Speaker 1: Thank you, Ryan. Appreciate it, brother. You know it goes

527
00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:36,400
Speaker 1: along with this text. I just got on the Avy

528
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:39,440
Speaker 1: as a glass text machine. Forever grateful to Stoop for

529
00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:42,280
Speaker 1: what he gave us, so difficult to see it crumble

530
00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:45,680
Speaker 1: like this. Would hate his era to end in disgrace

531
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:51,280
Speaker 1: the way that Cals did painful. You know, I get it. Yeah,

532
00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:52,760
Speaker 1: I think we a lot of us feel that way.

533
00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:57,840
Speaker 1: We're forever grateful for what cal did here, but it

534
00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:01,040
Speaker 1: was time. It was time for a change. We're gonna

535
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:05,080
Speaker 1: forever be grateful for what Mark Stoops did here. A

536
00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:06,840
Speaker 1: lot of people will getting to that point where maybe

537
00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:07,880
Speaker 1: it's time for a change.

538
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:08,480
Speaker 2: Are you there?

539
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:09,640
Speaker 1: I'm not there.

540
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:10,640
Speaker 2: You're not there.

541
00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 1: I know I'm not there. And maybe it's because when

542
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 1: I hear him on these postgame shows, he sounds as

543
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:24,440
Speaker 1: defeated as I feel. I know he doesn't want to

544
00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:28,400
Speaker 1: go out like this. I know that he's he's proud

545
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:32,560
Speaker 1: of what he's done here and build this program. He

546
00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:37,320
Speaker 1: he hates losing as much as anybody, So I still

547
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:39,600
Speaker 1: think there's a lot of fight left in him. It

548
00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:41,560
Speaker 1: may we may get to see the results of it

549
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:43,520
Speaker 1: until next year. You know, I said, I think that

550
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 1: this season's over. Who's next? Billy Evan? Evan? Go ahead? Evan? Hey, Ryan,

551
00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 1: how are you good. How are you, Evan, I'm doing

552
00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:55,840
Speaker 1: good tonight.

553
00:30:57,240 --> 00:31:01,840
Speaker 15: I just want to talk about you know, I traveled

554
00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:07,000
Speaker 15: in for the game and the fans, the fans did

555
00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:10,840
Speaker 15: bring good energy tonight. I thought it was a great environment.

556
00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:13,720
Speaker 15: The fans have brought the energy pretty much the whole season.

557
00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:18,240
Speaker 15: The crowds have been great, and I guess that's just

558
00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:20,760
Speaker 15: kind of why, like going back to last year, the

559
00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:24,880
Speaker 15: pony up comments kind of irk me because the fans

560
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:29,240
Speaker 15: bring it. The fans have brought it, and the product

561
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:34,760
Speaker 15: on the field just hasn't been great for the fans

562
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:36,920
Speaker 15: to enjoy. I mean what, you know, like we've said,

563
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:40,640
Speaker 15: we're what two and ten or two and eleven or sorry,

564
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:43,240
Speaker 15: two and nine in the last however, many home games,

565
00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:48,080
Speaker 15: Conference home games, and it's just not a product on

566
00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:52,200
Speaker 15: the field that the fans can enjoy. Despite them bringing

567
00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 15: a very good atmosphere for Kentucky, I.

568
00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:01,000
Speaker 1: Appreciate it, Paul, You're right man. Like I said, the

569
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:03,360
Speaker 1: crowd was a late arriving crowd, and it was the

570
00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:05,800
Speaker 1: stating was kind of flat until kickoff and then it

571
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:10,040
Speaker 1: really picked up. Fans have showed up, fans were it

572
00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:12,800
Speaker 1: was an awesome environment for the Vanderbilt game. It was

573
00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:14,720
Speaker 1: an awesome environment for the Georgia game. It was an

574
00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:18,000
Speaker 1: awesome environment for the South Carolina game. There is no excuse.

575
00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:22,040
Speaker 1: This fan base has been there showing full support through

576
00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:25,680
Speaker 1: this whole season. Now. I don't know how many people

577
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:28,840
Speaker 1: are going to the mary State game, but they've They've

578
00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:31,600
Speaker 1: done their part, There's no doubt about it. They just

579
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:35,840
Speaker 1: showed Dane's two catches on the SEC network. Billy. Yeah, see,

580
00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:38,240
Speaker 1: I'm seeing them on video for the first time. I

581
00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:41,280
Speaker 1: was there at the game, so I'm seeing video. My goodness.

582
00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:42,280
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, buddy, he was.

583
00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:44,600
Speaker 1: He lost that guy in the first quarter and then

584
00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:48,560
Speaker 1: in the catching made on the sideline. That's an NFL catch.

585
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:53,840
Speaker 1: That's that's a pro catch. Playing simple. Who's next, Chad, Chad,

586
00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:54,600
Speaker 1: go ahead, Chad.

587
00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:59,800
Speaker 4: Hey, Ryan, I appreciate you doing it. I don't know

588
00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:01,400
Speaker 4: it probably a tough show for you to do.

589
00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:03,040
Speaker 6: So.

590
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:09,080
Speaker 16: I keep seeing mattch tweets about we don't have the money,

591
00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:12,760
Speaker 16: so forget about it. I mean, do we really not

592
00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:18,120
Speaker 16: think that there might be some donors that will get

593
00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:22,040
Speaker 16: their money together and decide that it's time for a change.

594
00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:24,920
Speaker 16: I mean, don't get me wrong, I love what Stoops

595
00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:31,520
Speaker 16: has done for our program. But I mean it's time.

596
00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:34,560
Speaker 16: I mean I hate to be this way, but it's time.

597
00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 16: It's time for a change. We need to I think

598
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 16: we need to get like an exploratory committee together. They

599
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:43,719
Speaker 16: need to start looking.

600
00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:46,000
Speaker 4: I mean he's lost.

601
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 16: I mean when you listen to his post game comments,

602
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:54,479
Speaker 16: he has lost, and you say it, I say it.

603
00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:59,320
Speaker 16: There's talent on this team, but he cannot get it

604
00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:02,800
Speaker 16: going in the direction that we need to. So I

605
00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:09,200
Speaker 16: honestly hope that there is enough donors to where we

606
00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:13,840
Speaker 16: can get together and decide that it's time for a change.

607
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:15,880
Speaker 16: I'll listen to your comment.

608
00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:21,560
Speaker 1: Okay, Chad, appreciate it. Trying to think of the best

609
00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:25,880
Speaker 1: way to say this. Big bigger schools that have the

610
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:31,520
Speaker 1: big perennial power football programs they've got let's just say

611
00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:38,760
Speaker 1: one hundred, let's say fifty fifty donors that donate multi

612
00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:43,839
Speaker 1: millions of dollars. Okay, fifty, Probably most problem may have more.

613
00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:49,919
Speaker 1: Kentucky has like five. So when people want to buy

614
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:54,319
Speaker 1: out stoops contract, it's not that simple. And for them

615
00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:57,799
Speaker 1: to go to these donors that they're going to all

616
00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:01,480
Speaker 1: the time to build this facility, grade the program, upgrade

617
00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:07,160
Speaker 1: the facilities, upgrade the stadium, let's build that. Well, there's

618
00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:10,480
Speaker 1: only like, there's only like five guys that have that

619
00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:13,520
Speaker 1: kind of deep pockets that could do something like that.

620
00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:19,239
Speaker 1: But this is not you know, Texas someplace like that

621
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:20,680
Speaker 1: where they could do something like that.

622
00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:24,120
Speaker 2: Maybe Texas A and M spent seventy seven million dollars

623
00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:25,040
Speaker 2: to buy out Jimbo.

624
00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:28,759
Speaker 1: See, there's there's no way Kentucky would ever have a

625
00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:31,760
Speaker 1: chance to ever come up with something like that ever,

626
00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:36,200
Speaker 1: And Mitch Barr wouldn't do it. He wouldn't jeopardize the

627
00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:39,520
Speaker 1: rest of the athletic programs to buy out a coach.

628
00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:41,320
Speaker 1: If he had something like that, he would just wouldn't

629
00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:43,200
Speaker 1: do it. He's got too much pride in the rest

630
00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:46,120
Speaker 1: of he's program that he helped develop. All Right, we

631
00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:48,080
Speaker 1: got time for one moment. You gotta take our break here.

632
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:51,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, you can take you can take one or two more.

633
00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:52,759
Speaker 1: All right, take another one then we'll take our break

634
00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:53,319
Speaker 1: at the top of the hour.

635
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:57,319
Speaker 12: Oh we got Hunter, Hunter, go ahead, Hunter, Hey, how

636
00:35:57,320 --> 00:35:58,000
Speaker 12: are you guys doing that?

637
00:35:58,400 --> 00:35:59,239
Speaker 1: Well? Could be better?

638
00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:03,239
Speaker 15: Hunter, I know you know, I.

639
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:05,239
Speaker 12: Was screaming at the TV the entire time I just

640
00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:10,080
Speaker 12: I'm just frustrated. Ryan, Something's got to give, you know,

641
00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:12,879
Speaker 12: we can't keep being insane. Sandy's doing the same thing

642
00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:15,680
Speaker 12: over and over and expecting different outcome, and we've been

643
00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:17,600
Speaker 12: insane for the last two years. That's all I can say.

644
00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:21,920
Speaker 12: My two questions is, I know a lot of people

645
00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:24,239
Speaker 12: have called for Stoops to get fired off. I feel

646
00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:26,520
Speaker 12: like a lot quicker than Cal Perry. Do you think

647
00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:29,440
Speaker 12: it's because we had a bad experience with Cal that

648
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:32,640
Speaker 12: we're kind of have like a shorter leash on Stoops.

649
00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:35,120
Speaker 12: And then I actually get to take my dad. I'm

650
00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:37,160
Speaker 12: from Utah and I get to take my dad to

651
00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:41,120
Speaker 12: his first ever Kentucky event around Thanksgiving time? Would you

652
00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:44,040
Speaker 12: rather go to the Western Kentucky basketball game or the

653
00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:45,800
Speaker 12: football game against the Louisville.

654
00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:49,279
Speaker 1: Yes, Oh, Billy, this is a perfect question for you

655
00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:53,080
Speaker 1: and me because you're a Western grad. So if you

656
00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:57,480
Speaker 1: get taken your dad your first first ever UK event,

657
00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:00,560
Speaker 1: are you going to watch a UK basketball game against

658
00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:07,360
Speaker 1: your alma mater or your big rivalry football game between

659
00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:08,280
Speaker 1: Louisville and Kentucky.

660
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:09,840
Speaker 2: Well, I guess it just depends if you want to

661
00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:11,200
Speaker 2: see a winner or a loss. If you want to

662
00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:12,560
Speaker 2: see a loss, I think you got to go to

663
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:15,120
Speaker 2: the Western Kentucky basketball game. But if you want to

664
00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:16,680
Speaker 2: see a win, you want to see the Cats beat

665
00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:18,520
Speaker 2: down Louisville, then you go to the football game.

666
00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:21,440
Speaker 1: Right. I think if it's just if Tickety's dad to

667
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:22,800
Speaker 1: the first one, you want to go to the Kentucky

668
00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:26,560
Speaker 1: Louisville football game. I mean it actually could mean something

669
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:29,960
Speaker 1: for Kentucky because that's maybe their only chance they could

670
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:32,960
Speaker 1: salvage what's happened last months of the season.

671
00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:37,400
Speaker 2: Oh, it's not gonna salvage anything, Ryan, Season's over.

672
00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:40,279
Speaker 1: And you know the chances are they're going to run

673
00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:42,040
Speaker 1: Western Kentucky off the floor and basket.

674
00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:42,279
Speaker 11: Now.

675
00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:46,440
Speaker 2: Ay Now, I don't know if you heard the crowd

676
00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:50,120
Speaker 2: mic tonight though, Ryan, but the MVP of the game.

677
00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:55,279
Speaker 1: Did our producer sound engineer correct the problem from our

678
00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:57,480
Speaker 1: caller on the pregame show that said the game mic

679
00:37:57,680 --> 00:37:58,480
Speaker 1: was too loud?

680
00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:00,480
Speaker 2: But we turned it down a little bit.

681
00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:03,440
Speaker 1: And you did you send some directives to have it

682
00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:04,000
Speaker 1: turned down?

683
00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:04,319
Speaker 3: Yeah?

684
00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:06,759
Speaker 2: You know, I had to send a couple messages out

685
00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:10,040
Speaker 2: make sure we put on the best broadcast possible, and.

686
00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:11,799
Speaker 1: They followed through, followed your orders.

687
00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:14,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, we had a little lighter crowd, so hopefully that

688
00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:16,800
Speaker 2: guy that called in had an easier time listening to

689
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:17,080
Speaker 2: the game.

690
00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:21,360
Speaker 1: Well, I I he yes, he was very upset that

691
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:24,200
Speaker 1: he couldn't hear Jeff and Tom because the crowd mic

692
00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:26,839
Speaker 1: was too loud, and Billy said he would take care

693
00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:29,759
Speaker 1: of it today. And you're telling everybody you came through

694
00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 1: for the game.

695
00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:32,000
Speaker 2: I think so. Yeah, I think we got it all right,

696
00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:33,600
Speaker 2: Very good tonight.

697
00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:36,960
Speaker 1: You've earned your big paycheck tonight being our sound engineer.

698
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:39,080
Speaker 1: All right, we'll take our final break, come back our

699
00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:41,040
Speaker 1: final segment eight five nine two eight h two to

700
00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:44,840
Speaker 1: eight seven Ryan Lemon on the Billy Are Sports postgame Show,

701
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:49,880
Speaker 1: We'll be right back after this welcome back final segment

702
00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:52,960
Speaker 1: of the local Totao's KSR postgame show. Cat's a loser

703
00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:58,240
Speaker 1: twenty four to ten to Auburn, their seventh straight SEC

704
00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:02,279
Speaker 1: home loss off to one in five into conference. I mean,

705
00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:03,680
Speaker 1: I could go on and all on, but you want

706
00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:06,360
Speaker 1: to If you want to get really depressed, go to

707
00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:14,360
Speaker 1: Corey Price's twitter Corey p zero eight and read some

708
00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:18,000
Speaker 1: of the about about eight of his last ten posts.

709
00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:25,440
Speaker 1: If you're not depressed already, that will make you depressed.

710
00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:31,279
Speaker 2: Ryan, they had four hundred and sixty four yards in

711
00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:35,840
Speaker 2: three quarters. I liked how you did it? Not Bo Jackson,

712
00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:38,320
Speaker 2: not herschel Walker.

713
00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:44,279
Speaker 1: Not EMMITTT. Smith, not Heisman winner George Rogers. Some guy

714
00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:49,799
Speaker 1: named Jock Queshunquez Hunter carves up the Cats for the

715
00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:54,120
Speaker 1: most rushing yards ever in the history of Kroger Field

716
00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:58,439
Speaker 1: slash CommonWell Stadium against the defense that we all thought

717
00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:00,960
Speaker 1: was really really good. Remember, we're gonna with a lot

718
00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:04,279
Speaker 1: of games this year because the defense is gonna keep

719
00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:08,239
Speaker 1: us in the game. By the way, our offense still

720
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:10,200
Speaker 1: the only team in the SEC not to score twenty

721
00:40:10,239 --> 00:40:14,600
Speaker 1: one points. Ouch, How can like I said, I think

722
00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:17,880
Speaker 1: that they've got six touchdowns in six games. SEC games

723
00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:22,160
Speaker 1: can't score twenty one points? What is wrong with you? You

724
00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:25,319
Speaker 1: get the ball inside the five? What is wrong with you?

725
00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:29,120
Speaker 1: Speaking of which, you know we talked about. Jamario Willcox

726
00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:33,279
Speaker 1: was on DraftKings that earlier in the week. If he

727
00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:35,840
Speaker 1: scored two touchdowns, it was like plus twenty eight hundred.

728
00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:39,520
Speaker 1: Some guys got on that. He ended up being RB

729
00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:43,120
Speaker 1: number one. Scores the first touchdown of the game. Those

730
00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:46,680
Speaker 1: people probably feeling pretty good about themselves. Yeah, why did

731
00:40:46,719 --> 00:40:48,279
Speaker 1: they not give him the ball when they're down there

732
00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:52,440
Speaker 1: inside the five? The dude can he can pick it up?

733
00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:54,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe he didn't have his shoes on.

734
00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:59,879
Speaker 1: Jay and Linden sends me a great tweet text, I'm sorry.

735
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:02,640
Speaker 1: Maybe's with that type machine. I'm worried the NIL money

736
00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:07,520
Speaker 1: won't be there for what we need next year. That's

737
00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:11,759
Speaker 1: where it's going to hurt the most, right there. Those

738
00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:16,600
Speaker 1: people that have donated all this money supported the NIL

739
00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:19,919
Speaker 1: are going to keep the money in their pockets next

740
00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:23,680
Speaker 1: year if they feel the way they do tonight. It's

741
00:41:24,640 --> 00:41:28,080
Speaker 1: his life eight five, two to eighty seven. Who's next,

742
00:41:28,080 --> 00:41:34,480
Speaker 1: Billy Brandon? Brandon? Go ahead, Brandon, it's me, Yeah, Yeah,

743
00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:35,280
Speaker 1: go ahead, sir.

744
00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:37,960
Speaker 7: Hey, I you know it.

745
00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:41,160
Speaker 6: Ryan questions. So I was actually I was at the

746
00:41:41,239 --> 00:41:41,839
Speaker 6: Vandy game.

747
00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:43,000
Speaker 4: I don't know how many years ago.

748
00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:46,360
Speaker 6: I'm twenty four, so it's probably around twelve or thirteen

749
00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:48,920
Speaker 6: when there was nobody in the bottom level.

750
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:49,439
Speaker 1: Yep.

751
00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:52,480
Speaker 6: So kind of a different vibe now where we're still losing,

752
00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:56,840
Speaker 6: but on the stoops kind of question. Not the biggest

753
00:41:56,840 --> 00:41:59,040
Speaker 6: win in the Stoop's career, but what do you think

754
00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:02,840
Speaker 6: the best life the fans that I guess in the

755
00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:05,759
Speaker 6: tenure about this program.

756
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:08,480
Speaker 1: All right, I appreciate it. I mean, you know, like

757
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:10,719
Speaker 1: we've we've said a lot tonight, I think everybody is

758
00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:14,200
Speaker 1: very thankful for what Mark Stoops has done here and

759
00:42:14,239 --> 00:42:17,080
Speaker 1: have built a program up that many people thought can

760
00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:19,120
Speaker 1: never be done. I never thought this Probaly would win

761
00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:22,440
Speaker 1: eight games in the regular season. Hell, they've won ten twice.

762
00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:27,120
Speaker 1: Never thought that would ever happen. So I will forever

763
00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:29,399
Speaker 1: be grateful. And even though I'm upset with the way

764
00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:32,320
Speaker 1: things are going right now, I, like Billy asked me earlier,

765
00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:35,279
Speaker 1: I'm still not ready to go get rid of it.

766
00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:37,719
Speaker 1: I know a lot of people are, and I completely

767
00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:40,919
Speaker 1: understand that there's nothing wrong with feeling that way. I'm

768
00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:43,080
Speaker 1: just not one of those guys. Yet, where are you? Billy?

769
00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:46,120
Speaker 2: And the in that argument, I was still thinking about

770
00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:48,759
Speaker 2: the old the best moments of the Stoops era, and

771
00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:51,279
Speaker 2: I mine was that drive with Wan Dell. Was that

772
00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:53,120
Speaker 2: against Iowa.

773
00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:57,080
Speaker 1: We had the like five straight catches or whatever it.

774
00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:58,920
Speaker 2: Was, he got popped on like the first play.

775
00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:01,319
Speaker 1: And is that the guy I was asking the great

776
00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:02,399
Speaker 1: moments of the Stoops era?

777
00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:05,880
Speaker 2: Well, maybe maybe I misunderstood it. He was just saying

778
00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:09,720
Speaker 2: maybe some of his favorite moments Austin againnis Field goals

779
00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:12,200
Speaker 2: in mind, the Missouri game on the road.

780
00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:16,359
Speaker 1: Yes, when the Conrad cd Conrad made that catch. Uh.

781
00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:19,160
Speaker 1: How about the uh oh I had it and it

782
00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:19,759
Speaker 1: just lost it.

783
00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:19,960
Speaker 11: Oh?

784
00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:23,040
Speaker 1: The bud Dupree. Yeah? Against South Carolina?

785
00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:23,799
Speaker 2: Absolutely?

786
00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:29,440
Speaker 1: Uh? Jojoe kemp Ran ran the Wildcat like what twelve

787
00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:32,520
Speaker 1: times in a row? That was? That was? That wasn't joker?

788
00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:33,600
Speaker 1: Was that was Stoops? Wasn't it?

789
00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:37,439
Speaker 2: I'm not sure that was free dates me? But think

790
00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:41,279
Speaker 2: about Lynn Bowden taking over at quarterback for half a

791
00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:43,160
Speaker 2: half a year and you went in the Belk Bowl.

792
00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:46,360
Speaker 2: Come on, how awesome was that? Some big wins versus

793
00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:47,960
Speaker 2: Louisville Lamar fumbles.

794
00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:52,759
Speaker 1: There's spent some great, great moments during the Mark Stoops era.

795
00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:56,920
Speaker 1: The last three weeks are just been disappointed.

796
00:43:57,480 --> 00:44:01,239
Speaker 2: Tennessee coming out next on Prime Time seven forty five,

797
00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:02,359
Speaker 2: kickoff in.

798
00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:06,160
Speaker 1: Knoxville with the women will be down there chewing tobacco.

799
00:44:06,239 --> 00:44:07,400
Speaker 1: It's spitting all over.

800
00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:11,080
Speaker 2: My shoes, may be spitting in your face next Saturday.

801
00:44:11,280 --> 00:44:11,759
Speaker 1: Who's next?

802
00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:12,680
Speaker 2: Billy Jordan?

803
00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:17,320
Speaker 1: Jordan? Go ahead, Jordan, Hey, guys.

804
00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:21,560
Speaker 11: I was pretty hard on bush Hamdon last week, and

805
00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:26,960
Speaker 11: I continue to be pretty hard on tonight. I think

806
00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:32,719
Speaker 11: it was pretty stupid to bring in Gavin on a

807
00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:38,720
Speaker 11: first down earlier in the game when defenses know what's coming.

808
00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:43,719
Speaker 1: Oh, there's no doubt. Yeah, I appreciate the phone call.

809
00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:47,640
Speaker 1: When he comes in, there's no doubt he's running the football.

810
00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:50,520
Speaker 1: But they tried to mix things up today, had him

811
00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:53,640
Speaker 1: throw some long balls. I don't know why they did it.

812
00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:57,600
Speaker 1: They're in the second half during that one possession, but

813
00:44:57,840 --> 00:45:00,799
Speaker 1: they're trying. They were trying to give him a a shot,

814
00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:05,239
Speaker 1: give him a chance to Earnie stripes. I just don't

815
00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:08,239
Speaker 1: know if that's the right time to do it, but

816
00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:11,600
Speaker 1: that they What would you have done? Bill? Would you

817
00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:12,640
Speaker 1: have made a change?

818
00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:16,120
Speaker 2: I wouldn't have been doing this two quarterback bs the

819
00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:19,680
Speaker 2: entire season, honestly. I know you want to make everybody

820
00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:23,400
Speaker 2: happy because you've brought some other people in, but this

821
00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:27,200
Speaker 2: is football, man, that doesn't really work. Doesn't really work.

822
00:45:27,480 --> 00:45:30,680
Speaker 1: No, let's get another phone call. Who we got Ben? Ben?

823
00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:31,359
Speaker 1: Go ahead, Ben.

824
00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:37,040
Speaker 10: I just want to say that Gerald Minty's probably the

825
00:45:37,080 --> 00:45:38,640
Speaker 10: worst offensive.

826
00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:40,560
Speaker 7: Lineman in the SEC right now, and how.

827
00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:42,520
Speaker 3: Hard is it to make defensive adjustments?

828
00:45:44,640 --> 00:45:48,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, man, appreciate the phone call. You know, we were

829
00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:52,080
Speaker 1: ready to crown our defense the best ever in the

830
00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:55,319
Speaker 1: Mark Stoops era, and they were so what they did

831
00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:57,920
Speaker 1: against Ole Miss. But the last three games, our defense

832
00:45:57,960 --> 00:45:59,600
Speaker 1: has not been good. Like I said, I said that

833
00:45:59,600 --> 00:46:02,160
Speaker 1: on the pre show, Billy, I got a little pushback

834
00:46:02,200 --> 00:46:06,960
Speaker 1: from our boys. But well, let's just go through the

835
00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:11,320
Speaker 1: Vanderbilt game opening drive. You let Vandigo I think ninety

836
00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:14,759
Speaker 1: five yards or ninety yards whatever it was. You were

837
00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:21,560
Speaker 1: like three of thirteen on third down. I'm sorry, Vanderbilt

838
00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:23,879
Speaker 1: was like ten of thirteen on third that you could

839
00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:31,600
Speaker 1: not stop them on third down. Florida awful. Florida just

840
00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:34,880
Speaker 1: picked you apart, did whatever they wanted to against your defense,

841
00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:37,880
Speaker 1: and tonight we saw a guy just run all over you.

842
00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:41,560
Speaker 1: So even though the defense didn't play well against Georgian

843
00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:43,719
Speaker 1: Ole Miss, they have not played well these three games

844
00:46:43,760 --> 00:46:44,399
Speaker 1: in a row. Now.

845
00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:47,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, and no, they haven't loaded up to expectations. You know,

846
00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:49,799
Speaker 2: they have been injured. Deeric Jackson got hurt in this game.

847
00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:51,920
Speaker 2: JJ Weaver got hurt in this game and didn't even

848
00:46:51,960 --> 00:46:53,680
Speaker 2: come back after he made a big play to end

849
00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:56,920
Speaker 2: a half. Maxwell Harrison obviously out, but a guy like

850
00:46:57,320 --> 00:47:00,279
Speaker 2: Doomus Johnson has got to be like, what the heck

851
00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:02,680
Speaker 2: did I sign up for? You know what I mean?

852
00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:05,759
Speaker 2: Heat lose one game or maybe one game in three

853
00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:08,960
Speaker 2: years at Georgia, dudees, what what are we up at?

854
00:47:08,960 --> 00:47:09,120
Speaker 3: Two?

855
00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:09,399
Speaker 2: Now?

856
00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:13,840
Speaker 1: Five? Yeah? What is the record? Now? Three and five?

857
00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:16,040
Speaker 2: Something like that?

858
00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:18,200
Speaker 1: One in five in the SEC. Yeah, we're three and

859
00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:22,640
Speaker 1: five overall, one in five in the SEC. I'm sorry,

860
00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:25,840
Speaker 1: Dumas Dumas Walker Johnson. We should have done you better.

861
00:47:26,400 --> 00:47:30,360
Speaker 1: All right, here's next? Todd is next, Todd, go ahead,

862
00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:31,480
Speaker 1: all right, Todd.

863
00:47:32,840 --> 00:47:34,640
Speaker 7: Hell, Ryan a.

864
00:47:36,480 --> 00:47:43,480
Speaker 3: Mystery love company, So I thought I'd joined in. Listen,

865
00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:48,040
Speaker 3: I'm with you, Ryan. I don't think I'm ready to

866
00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:54,680
Speaker 3: lose stoops. First of all, I don't know who we

867
00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:56,560
Speaker 3: would get, do you?

868
00:47:56,600 --> 00:48:00,440
Speaker 1: No? People say Brad white people, John Summer, that's what

869
00:48:00,960 --> 00:48:05,360
Speaker 1: you know. Everybody on social media is pointing towards.

870
00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:12,240
Speaker 3: Yeah. I just I just can't go along with getting

871
00:48:12,320 --> 00:48:15,040
Speaker 3: rid of them, And like you say, can't afford to

872
00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:20,280
Speaker 3: pay it anyway, I can't. And I'm hoping things will

873
00:48:20,719 --> 00:48:25,919
Speaker 3: get better next year. And I'm just was curious as

874
00:48:26,120 --> 00:48:32,719
Speaker 3: to wondering if there was some permol in the locker room,

875
00:48:33,160 --> 00:48:37,239
Speaker 3: maybe between players or coaches.

876
00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:40,520
Speaker 1: Appreciate the phone call. I mean, there's there have been

877
00:48:40,560 --> 00:48:46,080
Speaker 1: other people that have asked that question, and I'm being

878
00:48:46,200 --> 00:48:49,320
Speaker 1: completely honest, I've not heard anything like that. Matt said

879
00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:52,239
Speaker 1: he's not hurt anything like that. Drew said he's not

880
00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:55,080
Speaker 1: hurt anything. Now maybe well that'll come out later, but

881
00:48:55,120 --> 00:48:58,240
Speaker 1: as of right now, I really have not heard anything

882
00:48:58,280 --> 00:49:00,560
Speaker 1: where there's a problem in the locker room or a

883
00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:03,640
Speaker 1: problem with coaches and players. I just that's why it's

884
00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:08,360
Speaker 1: kind of a head scratcher, what is going on? You know?

885
00:49:08,680 --> 00:49:11,759
Speaker 1: And even Stoops is like he didn't and he didn't

886
00:49:11,800 --> 00:49:16,640
Speaker 1: know how the answers either, but they it's it's I

887
00:49:16,640 --> 00:49:18,439
Speaker 1: don't know a lot of football, but I can watch

888
00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:22,640
Speaker 1: the game and see that they're not executing on offense.

889
00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:29,279
Speaker 1: That offense is kind of stuck, and they're some of

890
00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:33,640
Speaker 1: the play calls don't seem to match the situation. But again,

891
00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:36,640
Speaker 1: I've never had to make it a be an offensive coordinator,

892
00:49:36,680 --> 00:49:39,480
Speaker 1: so I don't know. But uh, I just don't know why.

893
00:49:40,719 --> 00:49:42,279
Speaker 1: Like when Gavin came in build, they seem like that

894
00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:43,920
Speaker 1: he kind of let off the gas a little bit

895
00:49:44,600 --> 00:49:46,080
Speaker 1: and you're down fourteen points.

896
00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:50,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, we really haven't seen any extended action of Gavin,

897
00:49:51,080 --> 00:49:53,120
Speaker 2: so that did seem a little puzzling. But you know,

898
00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:57,200
Speaker 2: I think we're past anger at this point. It's like misery.

899
00:49:57,280 --> 00:49:59,200
Speaker 2: It's depression, it's like.

900
00:49:59,600 --> 00:50:00,480
Speaker 1: In bare harassment.

901
00:50:00,600 --> 00:50:04,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's you know, we're I think we're realizing now

902
00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:05,600
Speaker 2: where we're at.

903
00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:09,399
Speaker 1: I realize I'm the only person left here at ks bar. Grill,

904
00:50:09,440 --> 00:50:10,279
Speaker 1: Why are you at the bar?

905
00:50:10,320 --> 00:50:12,880
Speaker 2: How come you couldn't go to the house. Your brother's

906
00:50:12,880 --> 00:50:14,760
Speaker 2: an Auburn fan. They can give you a ride home.

907
00:50:15,040 --> 00:50:15,279
Speaker 3: Yeah.

908
00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:16,799
Speaker 1: They wanted to stay to the end of the game,

909
00:50:17,360 --> 00:50:21,000
Speaker 1: and uh, I don't blame him, and I didn't think

910
00:50:21,040 --> 00:50:23,719
Speaker 1: I have enough time. I may have been able to

911
00:50:23,719 --> 00:50:25,160
Speaker 1: make it, but we've been close. I just didn't want

912
00:50:25,160 --> 00:50:27,160
Speaker 1: to jeopardize. This was such kind of a big, big

913
00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:29,560
Speaker 1: show where I knew a lot of people would want

914
00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:31,000
Speaker 1: to call in. I didn't want to put you on

915
00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:31,680
Speaker 1: the spot, Billy.

916
00:50:31,760 --> 00:50:34,279
Speaker 2: So the poor workers having to wait there till you leave?

917
00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:35,279
Speaker 2: Are you the last one there?

918
00:50:35,440 --> 00:50:38,200
Speaker 1: I am now the last one here. I do need

919
00:50:38,239 --> 00:50:40,879
Speaker 1: a ride home? Can somebody take me home? We would

920
00:50:40,960 --> 00:50:41,680
Speaker 1: take another phone call.

921
00:50:41,719 --> 00:50:43,640
Speaker 2: Who we got Thomas's next?

922
00:50:43,719 --> 00:50:47,000
Speaker 1: Thomas, go ahead, Thomas.

923
00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:50,400
Speaker 14: Dank. He had an awesome night. He's definitely NFL quality.

924
00:50:50,440 --> 00:50:55,440
Speaker 14: But Mark Stewbs has capped his productivity in Kentucky, and

925
00:50:55,600 --> 00:50:58,000
Speaker 14: I know we're stuck with him. Can get rid of him,

926
00:50:58,200 --> 00:51:01,600
Speaker 14: but look at the offensive courts we've gone through. We

927
00:51:01,719 --> 00:51:05,080
Speaker 14: got to stop saying these offensive play calls. Why do

928
00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:07,960
Speaker 14: we call this? Why do you call this? It's reflective

929
00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:11,840
Speaker 14: of the head coach period. But I think he's captured

930
00:51:11,840 --> 00:51:14,960
Speaker 14: productivity and we're not going to be better. South Carolina's

931
00:51:14,960 --> 00:51:18,520
Speaker 14: passed us up, Vanderbilt, Missouri, all those three schools have

932
00:51:18,560 --> 00:51:21,920
Speaker 14: passed us up. I think we're done with him.

933
00:51:22,680 --> 00:51:25,919
Speaker 1: Appreciate the phone call. You know, Vince Merrill, who came

934
00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:29,239
Speaker 1: on this radio show, came on on ks R and said,

935
00:51:29,280 --> 00:51:33,239
Speaker 1: you know, we now beat South Carolina every year. We

936
00:51:33,280 --> 00:51:35,719
Speaker 1: now beat Vanderbilt every year. We now beat Missisippi State

937
00:51:35,719 --> 00:51:38,200
Speaker 1: every year. We now beat Missouri every year. Now gotta

938
00:51:38,200 --> 00:51:41,520
Speaker 1: go beat Georgia. That's where we were, man, we were

939
00:51:41,560 --> 00:51:44,600
Speaker 1: at a point where we had we were no longer

940
00:51:44,640 --> 00:51:47,080
Speaker 1: in the bottom echelon of the SEC. We were knocking

941
00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:49,439
Speaker 1: on the door at the top. We were going after

942
00:51:49,719 --> 00:51:52,440
Speaker 1: Georgia for crying out loud, and he said many times,

943
00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:56,239
Speaker 1: we still have to prove we can beat Georgia. Man,

944
00:51:56,280 --> 00:51:59,799
Speaker 1: they almost did it. This year. Thirteen twelve was the

945
00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:04,520
Speaker 1: don't score no touchdowns. You did not score a touchdown,

946
00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:08,920
Speaker 1: but there's still one point. Now we are at the

947
00:52:09,000 --> 00:52:12,000
Speaker 1: bottom of the sec. Not not even in the middle.

948
00:52:12,040 --> 00:52:15,759
Speaker 1: We are at the bottom of the sec, knocking on

949
00:52:15,760 --> 00:52:19,960
Speaker 1: the door down there with Mississippi State, Auburn, whoever else

950
00:52:20,040 --> 00:52:22,040
Speaker 1: is foundering down there. Yeah, you can tact take that.

951
00:52:23,160 --> 00:52:25,840
Speaker 1: We got one more call, Billy, Yeah, one more Okay,

952
00:52:26,960 --> 00:52:28,840
Speaker 1: we see how we we gotta somehow, we got to

953
00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:33,600
Speaker 1: in on some positivity. So be thinking of that after

954
00:52:33,600 --> 00:52:37,080
Speaker 1: we take this last phone call. Okay, who's our last call? Nolan? Nolan,

955
00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:37,840
Speaker 1: go ahead, Nolan.

956
00:52:40,719 --> 00:52:43,279
Speaker 9: First off, I just want to start by saying, you know,

957
00:52:43,400 --> 00:52:45,319
Speaker 9: thanks guys for staying up late. You know, I know

958
00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:47,520
Speaker 9: you all have a lot invested Billy. You're at the

959
00:52:47,520 --> 00:52:49,799
Speaker 9: station all day, Ryan, you know you want to be

960
00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:52,040
Speaker 9: you know, home, celebrating or at least kind of dealing

961
00:52:52,080 --> 00:52:53,839
Speaker 9: with some thoughts. So the fact that you all stay

962
00:52:53,920 --> 00:52:56,279
Speaker 9: on so late and you know, kind of help the

963
00:52:56,320 --> 00:52:59,600
Speaker 9: fans work through this. It really doesn't know a lot. But

964
00:52:59,640 --> 00:53:02,640
Speaker 9: I have trying to think what would I say, and

965
00:53:02,719 --> 00:53:04,319
Speaker 9: I think there is so much to say. You know,

966
00:53:04,360 --> 00:53:09,279
Speaker 9: we have struggles at quarterback. We can't shift to a

967
00:53:09,280 --> 00:53:11,360
Speaker 9: different style of defense when they're running it straight up

968
00:53:11,360 --> 00:53:13,080
Speaker 9: the middle. We can't figure out to go to a

969
00:53:13,120 --> 00:53:14,120
Speaker 9: single high safety and.

970
00:53:14,040 --> 00:53:14,640
Speaker 4: Loads the box.

971
00:53:14,880 --> 00:53:16,120
Speaker 9: I mean, at the end of the day, that's just

972
00:53:16,160 --> 00:53:19,399
Speaker 9: a game of numbers, right, And you know I listen

973
00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:21,759
Speaker 9: to KASR every day. You know, we can't get rid

974
00:53:21,800 --> 00:53:24,680
Speaker 9: of stoops. But at the end of the day, you

975
00:53:24,760 --> 00:53:28,279
Speaker 9: do have to ask, you know, what's going on. It

976
00:53:28,400 --> 00:53:29,560
Speaker 9: was crazy all night.

977
00:53:30,320 --> 00:53:30,879
Speaker 3: Even when we.

978
00:53:30,880 --> 00:53:33,320
Speaker 9: Make big plays, you didn't see guys running off the field.

979
00:53:33,560 --> 00:53:35,640
Speaker 9: There wasn't a sense of urgency, like you said, you

980
00:53:35,680 --> 00:53:39,200
Speaker 9: saw guys quitting on plays. Dame had an incredible night.

981
00:53:39,680 --> 00:53:42,160
Speaker 9: He was working his butt offs, but there was just

982
00:53:42,280 --> 00:53:47,279
Speaker 9: moments where you could see, like the team quit on us.

983
00:53:48,080 --> 00:53:50,000
Speaker 9: You know, I save up every single year, have a

984
00:53:50,000 --> 00:53:54,160
Speaker 9: side hustle even to save up for football tickets. Football

985
00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:57,440
Speaker 9: truly is something that the fan can become a part of.

986
00:53:57,480 --> 00:53:59,960
Speaker 9: Basketball is hard, but football you can really feel like

987
00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:01,960
Speaker 9: you're part of a program and you can feel like

988
00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:05,640
Speaker 9: you earned a product. This program has gotten to a

989
00:54:05,680 --> 00:54:09,920
Speaker 9: point where the fans just you know, it's just not

990
00:54:10,080 --> 00:54:11,440
Speaker 9: worth it for some of us. You know, I have

991
00:54:11,520 --> 00:54:14,080
Speaker 9: to drive two and a half hours in this case,

992
00:54:14,120 --> 00:54:15,920
Speaker 9: I'm on my way back to Bowling Green right now,

993
00:54:16,800 --> 00:54:19,040
Speaker 9: to drive back two and a half hours after watching that.

994
00:54:19,880 --> 00:54:23,799
Speaker 9: It's miserable. I will say on a positive note, the

995
00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:26,879
Speaker 9: one thing that does kind of help keep me through

996
00:54:27,520 --> 00:54:29,680
Speaker 9: is all of these young players that have come in

997
00:54:29,719 --> 00:54:31,880
Speaker 9: that event has brought in. You know, we had that

998
00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:34,520
Speaker 9: four star tight end that we picked up from South Carolina.

999
00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:36,920
Speaker 9: Today we still have Cutter Bowley, We have all these

1000
00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:40,680
Speaker 9: young kids coming in. My one thought leaving this is,

1001
00:54:40,800 --> 00:54:43,400
Speaker 9: you know, clearly the people we're putting out there, whether

1002
00:54:43,440 --> 00:54:46,600
Speaker 9: it's a lack of effort or just play style, I

1003
00:54:46,600 --> 00:54:48,600
Speaker 9: don't know what it is, but the guys that we've

1004
00:54:48,600 --> 00:54:50,560
Speaker 9: got out there, they aren't just cutting it. I don't

1005
00:54:50,560 --> 00:54:52,279
Speaker 9: see how we can do much worse. I don't know

1006
00:54:52,360 --> 00:54:54,080
Speaker 9: why we start to look maybe put in some of

1007
00:54:54,080 --> 00:54:56,799
Speaker 9: these younger tackles and guards. You know, how do these

1008
00:54:56,840 --> 00:54:59,239
Speaker 9: young wide receivers do? You know, I don't know if

1009
00:54:59,280 --> 00:55:01,120
Speaker 9: Cutter's ready, but but you don't give him a reper

1010
00:55:01,160 --> 00:55:03,920
Speaker 9: to just kind of see what happened. What we have

1011
00:55:04,280 --> 00:55:06,680
Speaker 9: is not working, So I would be excited to see

1012
00:55:06,800 --> 00:55:09,359
Speaker 9: do we have something for the future or do we

1013
00:55:09,480 --> 00:55:13,080
Speaker 9: just need to look to do a complete cleaning the slate. Gentlemen,

1014
00:55:13,160 --> 00:55:15,440
Speaker 9: I'd love to hear your thoughts. Once again, appreciate all

1015
00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:15,920
Speaker 9: you all do.

1016
00:55:16,160 --> 00:55:19,840
Speaker 1: Have a great night, great phone call. Actually, as we

1017
00:55:20,000 --> 00:55:23,960
Speaker 1: kind of like, look, they lost the game, the bigger

1018
00:55:25,480 --> 00:55:30,320
Speaker 1: the bigger point of view to me is the program.

1019
00:55:30,760 --> 00:55:32,440
Speaker 1: You've heard me say, all right tonight, I'm not in

1020
00:55:32,520 --> 00:55:36,640
Speaker 1: the ship that think the program is done. I think

1021
00:55:36,680 --> 00:55:38,600
Speaker 1: there's still a little gas in the tank for that guy,

1022
00:55:38,640 --> 00:55:42,120
Speaker 1: for Coachdobes. I still believe in him. Actually, he's the

1023
00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:45,680
Speaker 1: guy I want leading my program. Yes, the last three

1024
00:55:45,719 --> 00:55:49,040
Speaker 1: games have stunk. I'm embarrassed, I'm mad, I'm upset, I'm

1025
00:55:49,080 --> 00:55:52,640
Speaker 1: not happy, But you know what, he's not either. So

1026
00:55:53,440 --> 00:55:55,759
Speaker 1: I'm still in the boat willing to give that man

1027
00:55:56,960 --> 00:55:59,720
Speaker 1: a chance to get it back on the right track. Because,

1028
00:55:59,719 --> 00:56:02,200
Speaker 1: like that callers said, Billy, there is a lot of

1029
00:56:02,480 --> 00:56:08,120
Speaker 1: very good young talent on that sideline, and I think

1030
00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:10,960
Speaker 1: there's still a lot of good football coming from that program.

1031
00:56:11,680 --> 00:56:14,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, and he's earned a bad year right, eight consecutive

1032
00:56:14,600 --> 00:56:18,120
Speaker 2: bowl seasons bringing Kentucky up from the ashes. He's done

1033
00:56:18,120 --> 00:56:20,799
Speaker 2: a lot, so maybe he deserves our grace. Can we

1034
00:56:20,840 --> 00:56:22,719
Speaker 2: get the Tyson Chicken guy to take him out to

1035
00:56:22,719 --> 00:56:23,359
Speaker 2: dinner or something?

1036
00:56:23,560 --> 00:56:23,799
Speaker 1: Void?

1037
00:56:23,840 --> 00:56:26,000
Speaker 2: That forty million dollars byout that seems to be a

1038
00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:29,839
Speaker 2: big obstacle. But you know, I'm with you, Ryan, I mean,

1039
00:56:29,880 --> 00:56:32,319
Speaker 2: this guy has done a lot of good and we

1040
00:56:32,400 --> 00:56:35,799
Speaker 2: can't put the blame solely on him. But I don't know, man,

1041
00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:38,239
Speaker 2: Like you said, you see this game versus Georgia, you

1042
00:56:38,320 --> 00:56:40,120
Speaker 2: see them win versus Old Miss. You know it's in

1043
00:56:40,160 --> 00:56:43,399
Speaker 2: there somewhere. Why have we not seen it against three

1044
00:56:43,480 --> 00:56:45,680
Speaker 2: mediocre SEC teams.

1045
00:56:46,160 --> 00:56:48,520
Speaker 1: I want to end the show with this. A lot

1046
00:56:48,560 --> 00:56:55,160
Speaker 1: of our young fans don't remember Kentucky going one in ten,

1047
00:56:55,960 --> 00:57:01,000
Speaker 1: two and nine. Kentucky fans just begging for six wins.

1048
00:57:01,040 --> 00:57:04,000
Speaker 1: We can go to a bowl game thinking that when

1049
00:57:04,040 --> 00:57:07,959
Speaker 1: Tim Couch went seven and five, we had just won

1050
00:57:08,080 --> 00:57:11,200
Speaker 1: the National championship, won the Rose Bowl because we went

1051
00:57:11,320 --> 00:57:14,640
Speaker 1: seven and five and played in the Outback Bowl, and

1052
00:57:14,680 --> 00:57:17,000
Speaker 1: then the next year, oh my goodness, went to the

1053
00:57:18,120 --> 00:57:20,760
Speaker 1: Music City Bowl, with Dusty Bonner back to back years

1054
00:57:20,760 --> 00:57:26,360
Speaker 1: the bowl game. You don't understand how happy this fan

1055
00:57:26,440 --> 00:57:30,440
Speaker 1: base was just to go to a bowl game, just

1056
00:57:30,480 --> 00:57:34,040
Speaker 1: to go to a bowl game. Now we're mad when

1057
00:57:34,040 --> 00:57:36,240
Speaker 1: we don't go. We don't get eight wins. Now we're

1058
00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:38,280
Speaker 1: mad we don't play on a New Year's Day bowl game.

1059
00:57:39,240 --> 00:57:41,920
Speaker 1: That's how far this program has come. Yes, it's not

1060
00:57:41,960 --> 00:57:44,800
Speaker 1: the greatest at the moment. Corey Price, who just walked

1061
00:57:44,800 --> 00:57:50,040
Speaker 1: in the last three weeks have not been fun. But

1062
00:57:51,920 --> 00:57:54,480
Speaker 1: I want the young fans to understand where we've come from.

1063
00:57:55,480 --> 00:57:58,960
Speaker 1: Believe he might be one of those guys look back

1064
00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:05,720
Speaker 1: at the era of the early nineties and see how

1065
00:58:05,760 --> 00:58:09,200
Speaker 1: far we've come from those days. Then maybe you'll give

1066
00:58:09,200 --> 00:58:12,000
Speaker 1: you have a little more grace and a little more

1067
00:58:12,040 --> 00:58:15,080
Speaker 1: patience to let us try to let him steer the

1068
00:58:15,280 --> 00:58:19,880
Speaker 1: boat back on track. That's what I want to say. Listen,

1069
00:58:19,960 --> 00:58:23,360
Speaker 1: thank you to everybody who came out here to KOs Bar.

1070
00:58:23,560 --> 00:58:27,680
Speaker 1: We had a great pregame crowd. God bless every one

1071
00:58:27,680 --> 00:58:29,720
Speaker 1: of you that went to the game and set through

1072
00:58:29,760 --> 00:58:33,400
Speaker 1: that and all these home games that they've lost, the

1073
00:58:33,440 --> 00:58:37,040
Speaker 1: crowd has been awesome. We we used to complain about

1074
00:58:37,360 --> 00:58:39,560
Speaker 1: the crowd and the fans not showing up. You can't

1075
00:58:39,560 --> 00:58:42,400
Speaker 1: say that anymore. Man. They show up and they're loud,

1076
00:58:42,720 --> 00:58:46,040
Speaker 1: and they they they've done their part. So thank you

1077
00:58:46,080 --> 00:58:47,680
Speaker 1: to each and every one of you that went to
