There was 32 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 2: a taco bell here, yeah, which was the one place 33 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 2: I could get taco bell because we didn't have it. 34 00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 2: And then you spent one fine year at Lindsey Wilson 35 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:52,000 Speaker 2: playing baseball. Your old coach is there. He seemed to 36 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 2: fondly not remember you being on the team. I know 37 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,559 Speaker 2: he wouldn't, but uh, you spent a whole year living here. 38 00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 4: I did, yeah, coach tally to Lindsay Wilson for years 39 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 4: and years and years, hundreds of baseball you know, players 40 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 4: throughout the year, so I'm sure he doesn't remember me. 41 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 5: I was just you know, a freshman, Kevin. 42 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,919 Speaker 2: I feel like I feel like I would have remembered you.

We'd 70 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 4: have to run a mile and pictures of course always 71 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 4: had to run more because they want their legs to 72 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 4: be in shape. 73 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:13,519 Speaker 5: And this one particular day, I didn't feel like running. 74 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 4: So there was somebody riding around on a golf cart 75 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 4: and I said, Hey, can I get a ride on 76 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 4: that golf cart? 77 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 5: I just don't run right now. 78 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,079 Speaker 4: So this person took me around, you know. And then 79 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 4: when we got closer back to where the baseball field is, 80 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 4: to where you know, Coach could could maybe see us, 81 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 4: I jump off of it and I. 82 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 5: Wait for everybody else to catch up. 83 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 4: And then when we finally get back around there, he 84 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 4: calls me out and knew that I was on the 85 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 4: back of that golf cart and cheated on the campus 86 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 4: mile and had to stay after practice and clean up 87 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 4: the field. 88 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 2: Say I'm shocked. We'll play here. One year. That makes 89 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 2: makes I have more sense now, Drew after hearing the story. 90 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 6: Yeah, with all THEU respect, Shannon, that story does not 91 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 6: surprise me. Yeah, you would pull that it was only 92 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 6: a mile too. I mean, how lazy of me? 93 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:55,920 Speaker 2: It is pretty lazy. Well, listen, it's a big, big 94 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 2: weekend basketball game and football game. Last time you'll have 95 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 2: both on this weekend. But also, how about a big 96 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 2: round of applause for the UK women's volleyball team that 97 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 2: came back last night and won the SEC tournament to 98 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 2: finish SEC play completely undefeated. So, Ryan, you and I 99 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 2: are gonna have this conversation because someone on this group 100 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 2: left early because they thought they were gonna lose, and 101 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 2: it actually this time was not me. It was not me, 102 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,159 Speaker 2: Ryan Lemon and I. We went to the bar. First 103 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:26,280 Speaker 2: of all, was that not fun? 104 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 7: It was packed A lot of fun, a lot of fun. 105 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 7: They were into it. 106 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 2: A lot of fun. Kentucky plays. We had a great 107 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 2: crowd at the bar watching Cats go down, lose the 108 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:40,279 Speaker 2: first set, second set, should have won. They kind of 109 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 2: blow it at the end, third set, fall behind and 110 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,280 Speaker 2: it's like, well looks bad. Lots of people got up 111 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 2: and left. Yeah, including one of the hosts on this show. 112 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 6: Wait a minute, why is this about me? I could 113 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 6: only stay for two sets? 114 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:54,479 Speaker 2: Did he not leave? 115 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 7: Well, it's a good thing he did, because. 116 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:58,679 Speaker 2: The moment he left it turned around. 117 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 6: For the last two sets, the moment was turkey to cook. 118 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 2: The moment he left, it turned around, and probably half 119 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 2: the crowd stayed. But then it was really exciting, great comeback. 120 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 2: I had Craig Skinner's gonna join us at ten thirty 121 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 2: to talk about the wins. But it was an awesome 122 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 2: victory and Ryan actually a lot of fun being around 123 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,159 Speaker 2: when the game was over. The guy there's a guy 124 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:25,160 Speaker 2: that plays the fight song on his harmonica. He played 125 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 2: it in the in the bar and it was excellent. 126 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 2: So what a win for that team? Well, two things. 127 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 3: One, I was really lucky. I got to sit by 128 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 3: a volleyball expert during the game. The would tell me 129 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:35,799 Speaker 3: when they had some bad sets. 130 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 2: I was very I was good. Announced What did I 131 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:41,839 Speaker 2: say was Kentucky's problem early bad sets? Bad sets? Yeah? 132 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 2: They when they would say it, they wouldn't. They wouldn't 133 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 2: say it. I'm gonna ask Craig Skinner and see if 134 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 2: he agrees with my analysis on the game. 135 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 3: But we do drew a jetic gratitude because the minute 136 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,240 Speaker 3: he walked out the door, that's when they. 137 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,559 Speaker 2: Didn't turn around the moment he left. The moment he left, 138 00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 2: it got a lot better. Shannon, So he is he 139 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 2: is the bad luck that was occurring. I'm like, oh, 140 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 2: for fifty a ks bar. I told Ryan, I was like, 141 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 2: I'm leaving and watch this. And I texted you before 142 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:07,279 Speaker 2: I was home. I said, helda yep. 143 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:09,720 Speaker 4: Even in that third set down twenty three nineteen, you 144 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 4: feel like it's over. You feel like they're gonna do. 145 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 2: Marcus Spears was our first of all. He got Diego 146 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 2: Pavia level mom level of TV time. They showed him 147 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,040 Speaker 2: a lot and he I mean, he had a look 148 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 2: like he was already doing the horns like a match 149 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:26,600 Speaker 2: you know, had a number of match points and they 150 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:30,599 Speaker 2: fought them all off. I'm really enjoyed it. I you know, 151 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,920 Speaker 2: I don't ever watch volleyball until we get to kind 152 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 2: of the end of the year, but I really enjoyed 153 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 2: that game. And you you can't help but be tense 154 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 2: throughout the whole thing. 155 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 7: And those were two really really good teams. 156 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 3: Kentucky is like really good and Man, when they were 157 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 3: got went down oh two, they like elevated their play, 158 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 3: they got better. 159 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 7: And once they got that momentum, man, they couldn't be stopped. 160 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:51,920 Speaker 6: It's kind of when I went to Tennessee to watch 161 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 6: them a few weeks ago, they went down a set. 162 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 6: A couple other times I've watched them go down a set, 163 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 6: and even last night now second s I got a 164 00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 6: little dicey about. Told Ron It's like, this is kind 165 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 6: of what they do. They're about to turn on the comeback. 166 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 6: But I didn't expect it to get to three championship 167 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,599 Speaker 6: points for Texas. I mean, Dexas Texas had them absolutely 168 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 6: against the wall and then they flipped that switch and 169 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 6: they looked like a completely different team. 170 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 2: So Kentucky's almost certain to host the first four games 171 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 2: of the NCAA tournament. They'll host two different rounds. The 172 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 2: bracket comes out I think Sunday, and then if they 173 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 2: win both of those rounds, they'll go to the to 174 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 2: the final four. So it's gonna be exciting. And in Lexington, 175 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 2: I think the bracket comes out Sunday and the tickets 176 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 2: go on sale Monday, So just keep that in mind. 177 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 2: Now we've got a basketball game tonight. We've got a 178 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 2: football game Saturday. We've spent a lot of time on 179 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 2: this show this week talking about football. We will talk 180 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 2: about in a minute, but let's talk for a second 181 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 2: about basketball, all right. We didn't get to this yesterday, Ryan, 182 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 2: but Mark Pope's Mark Pope's Show on Monday. He said 183 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 2: Jalen Lowe is now playing two on two non contact. 184 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 2: Not exactly sure how that works, but he is playing, 185 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 2: and that Jaden Quaints is now playing three on three contact. 186 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 2: So there may be a chance that both of those 187 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 2: guys are playing by conference play. Would you agree with that? Yeah? 188 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 3: He Temmy talks about Jayden Clayton's it's a big improvement. 189 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 3: First it was he's doing non contact drills. Now he's 190 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 3: doing two and two says last night he's doing three 191 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 3: on three. 192 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 7: So, I mean, if the early. 193 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 3: Projections were him to give him back in early December, 194 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 3: he seems to be on that track, and boy, they 195 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 3: could use him inside me. 196 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 2: You get both those guys back, it's a different team. 197 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 2: I mean, it's it's hopefully it's a lot better than 198 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 2: what we've seen in these in these first couple of 199 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 2: really good games, but it's certainly a different team now. 200 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 2: They won't have either of those guys tonight. I don't 201 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,079 Speaker 2: know that there's much that you can say about whatever's 202 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 2: gonna happen tonight. I'm taking my parents, so I'm looking 203 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 2: forward to that. But beyond that, is there anything you 204 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 2: think you can get from this evening's game. 205 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 5: Don't get hurt, That's the main thing for me. 206 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 4: Let's try to keep everybody healthy as much as possible 207 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 4: throughout this game. 208 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 6: I want to see Cam Williams take another step That 209 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:53,560 Speaker 6: was big of him in the last game, first starting role, 210 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 6: probably the MVP of that game, almost had a double double. 211 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,559 Speaker 6: Even joke with that, Brandon Garrison stole two of his rebounds. 212 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:00,439 Speaker 6: Need to see him take another step up because I 213 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 6: think this team needs him. That four spots still a 214 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:06,079 Speaker 6: little shaky, especially with Diabat not being a shooter. Cam 215 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:07,560 Speaker 6: Williams needs to be a part of the rotation. 216 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:09,840 Speaker 2: You know, when I make a drive like this, I 217 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:14,719 Speaker 2: always listen to usually podcast, and there was a podcast 218 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 2: with Bill Simmons and this basketball guy and they were 219 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:20,280 Speaker 2: talking about the NBA and the NBA has is more 220 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 2: points have been scored in the NBA this year than 221 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 2: any year since like the sixties, and it's significantly higher 222 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 2: than last year. And they were talking about the two reasons, 223 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,080 Speaker 2: and one is that they're calling more fouls. But the 224 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 2: second is that now in the NBA, with the exception 225 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,120 Speaker 2: of a handful of people, everyone that can shoot from 226 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 2: the outside, including the Sinners, like this, even the Sinners 227 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:45,320 Speaker 2: are now acceptable three point shooters. I was watching the 228 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 2: Suns the other night. They got Nick Richards out there 229 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 2: shooting three pointers. I mean Nick Richards, did I mean? 230 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 2: And he's actually playing and been pretty good, and he's 231 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:56,599 Speaker 2: shooting threes. I thought about our team when I heard that, 232 00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 2: which is this gets back to can we play these 233 00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 2: guys together? Because you put Modiabatte and Brandon Garrison on 234 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 2: the floor together, you got two guys that can't shoot threes. 235 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 2: I do agree with Drew cam Williams is huge because 236 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 2: you can put him at the four and he can 237 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 2: make threes. 238 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 3: You know, he's done so well, you know, halftime in 239 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 3: the Louisville game, he came in and he played so 240 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:17,560 Speaker 3: well the other night. But yet he's not doing the 241 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:19,480 Speaker 3: one thing that he's known for, and I shoot the basketball. 242 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 3: He's earning minutes by doing everything. 243 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:22,839 Speaker 2: He's like one for five the other night, dude. 244 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 7: Yeah, he had nine rebounds. 245 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 3: So I think just inserting him in the certing line 246 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:28,319 Speaker 3: of him and Malachi both kind of give him a 247 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 3: little breath of fresh air and a lot of it 248 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:32,559 Speaker 3: seemed to be more energized, more energy it seemed like 249 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 3: they had against Lola. 250 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 2: I think Trentoneau is not playing and like when he's 251 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 2: I mean, I know he's not playing in part because 252 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 2: he's not playing well. But what do you think is 253 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 2: I expect? I mean, he started the game against Purdue, 254 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 2: started and like didn't get in. It was a healthy 255 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 2: scratch against Louisville and really has not been good all year. 256 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 2: What do you make of that? I don't know. 257 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:54,480 Speaker 6: For a little bit, you think of the turned ankle, 258 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 6: but that's been a while, and he was, like you said, 259 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 6: he warmed up in Louisville and they said he was 260 00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 6: ready to go and just didn't play. I'm starting to worry. 261 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:01,959 Speaker 6: You know, we bragged about how he slimmed down, but 262 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,560 Speaker 6: I'm worried he might not be ready for the physicality too. 263 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 2: Skinny. 264 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:07,320 Speaker 6: Yeah, and you know he was not the most physical 265 00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 6: guy to begin with, and I think at least so far, 266 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 6: that turn him a little bit in a physicality's only 267 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 6: going to ramp up. But against Michigan State and Louisville specifically, 268 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 6: the whole team kind of struggled with that. 269 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 4: He doesn't look comfortable out there to me like he 270 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 4: did last year. You know, I think last year he 271 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 4: got a lot more minutes than he expected to probably 272 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 4: going into the season. But for some reason, something just 273 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:25,560 Speaker 4: looks different this year with it. 274 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:27,840 Speaker 2: We talked a lot about after the Michigan State game. 275 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 2: Team chemistry. I don't know how much. We didn't talk 276 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 2: about this on the show Monday, but they did like 277 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 2: signing the event in Southern Indiana right on Sunday, so 278 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 2: it was like it was Diabatee and O Way and 279 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 2: I want to say, Jalen Lowe. I think those were 280 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 2: the three guys, and they clearly it's almost as if 281 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 2: they on purpose made a big show of we like 282 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 2: each other. Like they're all joking around and laughing, and 283 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 2: like somebody posted a picture of them kind of cutting up, 284 00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 2: and then all three of those guys retweeted, all three 285 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:03,560 Speaker 2: of them like, hey, we get along, leave us alone. 286 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 2: Do you do you think the chemistry thing was overblown. 287 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:08,679 Speaker 7: I think it was way overblown. 288 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 3: I mean, I still think something happened before that Louisville game, 289 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:12,679 Speaker 3: and it may have been Pope, not have been the 290 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:16,280 Speaker 3: players at all, But the chemistry was good from the minute. 291 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 7: Get we were there in practice. 292 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 3: Jack Gibbons, these guys have all seen practices after practice, 293 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 3: they've never said anything about We said that was chemistry 294 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:24,680 Speaker 3: on the court. 295 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 7: He kind often. 296 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 2: Was he making that clear? Yeah? So he did. He 297 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 2: means like the basketball pieces, But in the first interview 298 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 2: he didn't say that. Did he do another one? 299 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 7: He did? Okay, Yeah, okay, yeah, Yeah. 300 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:36,320 Speaker 3: He came in and he was on Coutler Show, and 301 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:38,440 Speaker 3: he said, I was talking about the chemistry on the floor. 302 00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 3: They just seem to be out of sync. And I 303 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 3: think that goes through Jalen Loan not being out there 304 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:42,960 Speaker 3: as your point guard. 305 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. Well we I mean, obviously we're gonna need him. Now. 306 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 2: We play North Carolina in six days and I'm gonna 307 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:52,960 Speaker 2: talk about this later. But I've watched a lot of 308 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 2: college basketball last two days, Shannon, and I'm a little 309 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 2: I'm a little bit worse. Yeah, I am here a 310 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:00,840 Speaker 2: little bit worse. I mean, I I now see what 311 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 2: Rick Patino is talking about when he said this may 312 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:04,840 Speaker 2: be the best year, but let's put that side. We'll 313 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:07,200 Speaker 2: talk about it later. Do you think I mean that 314 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:09,560 Speaker 2: North Carolina game to me is huge because it's at home, 315 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 2: Like we I okay, I thought we were gonna beat 316 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:12,559 Speaker 2: Michigan State. 317 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:13,600 Speaker 7: We did Louisville game. 318 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:16,120 Speaker 2: I want to beat Louisville, but it doesn't really concern me. 319 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 2: It was a true road game. Michigan State game concerns me. 320 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 2: You gotta beat North Carolina at home because I tell you, 321 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:24,720 Speaker 2: Gonzaga looks like they're gonna crush everybody. 322 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 4: Kentucky's look great against these lesser opponents, but at some 323 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 4: point you gotta beat somebody. And you got North Carolina, 324 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:31,959 Speaker 4: you got Gonzaga, you got Saint John's on the non goverment, 325 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 4: you got Indiana. 326 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 5: You gotta win some of those games. 327 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:39,320 Speaker 2: And we have an SEC that's not very good. We 328 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 2: have an SEC that right now, I want to say, 329 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 2: is like four and eighteen against the top sixty teams 330 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:49,080 Speaker 2: in kim POM. Literally like last year we were like 331 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:52,840 Speaker 2: fifteen and three, right and now we're like four and eighteen, 332 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 2: Like we can't that's bad. 333 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 5: So It is concerning, without a doubt. 334 00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 4: I looked at Alabama last night though, talking about SEC's 335 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:01,480 Speaker 4: teams that put up on hun fifteen, and I'm going, like, 336 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 4: can we do that if we played them? 337 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 2: But I do worry about right, we gotta beat some 338 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 2: of these teams Drew because the SEC is not gonna 339 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 2: give us the same amount of sketch. You know, last 340 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 2: year we went like five hundred in the SEC and 341 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 2: we're a three seed this year. It ain't gonna be 342 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 2: like that. These teams aren't nearly as good. The hoping 343 00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 2: lost by like forty. 344 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, the whole league's down, but I've watched two full 345 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 6: Tennessee games. They're a lot better than I expect. 346 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 7: Yeah, they are. 347 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 6: Just look at what's in front of us. Though, I'm 348 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,520 Speaker 6: pretty worried about Gonzaga like everyone else. So I think 349 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 6: you don't have a must win game in December. But 350 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 6: if you drop North Carolina and you drop Gonzaga, you 351 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 6: can't be zero to four in major games. I mean 352 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 6: that'll be a horrible. 353 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 2: Look. That's got to be a huge great It's is 354 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 2: it late? Is it nine o'clock? Gonzaga or North North Carolina? 355 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 2: Is Tuesday? On a Tuesday. I mean, is gonna have 356 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:58,520 Speaker 2: to be probably drunk in loud. But that's a I 357 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:01,440 Speaker 2: can't remember last time RUPs had thirty game. I mean, 358 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:02,960 Speaker 2: that's a that's a late game. 359 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:04,480 Speaker 4: If you were to lose all these big games and 360 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:06,840 Speaker 4: have five losses in the non conference, that would be bad, 361 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 4: and then going into the conference. 362 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,000 Speaker 5: I mean, I mean, you get six losses. 363 00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:13,600 Speaker 2: I don't know that any of these wins are certain. Yeah, so, 364 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 2: I mean, but we'll beat the bad teams because they're 365 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 2: bad team. And the other thing is these bad teams 366 00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 2: were playing are really bad. They're not like kind of bad. 367 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 2: They're at the bottom of the schedule bad, which also 368 00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 2: doesn't help us a lot. 369 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:27,680 Speaker 6: Sure, we're playing a lot of teams outside the top 370 00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:28,479 Speaker 6: three hundred. 371 00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 2: We're playing the worst teams in the country. A five 372 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 2: nine two eight oh twenty two eighty seven. Text machine 373 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,480 Speaker 2: is seven seven two seven four five two five four. 374 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 2: We'll take a break.

In the holiday season eight nine two eight 397 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 2: zero twenty two eighty seven, when person writes Matt I 398 00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 2: coach volleyball. And I know Ryan was making fun of you, 399 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 2: but actually, Craig Skinner said after the game they changed 400 00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:07,520 Speaker 2: the primary center because they were not playing well and 401 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 2: that made a difference in the game. Bam man. 402 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 7: I am just so thankful and blessed. 403 00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:14,119 Speaker 3: I was sitting by an expert last night that pointed 404 00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:15,800 Speaker 3: that out to me the whole game. 405 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:18,680 Speaker 2: Early. You know, she would make the sets and they'd 406 00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:21,720 Speaker 2: be behind the person I don't know what the spiker, 407 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:24,239 Speaker 2: and then she just had to tap it over and 408 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 2: she wouldn't be able to spike ball. No were over, 409 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:29,720 Speaker 2: don't say ball, don't lie shand and I understood. 410 00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:32,360 Speaker 5: So the spikers and the bumpers were good, but not the. 411 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:39,240 Speaker 4: Sun the center got the centers were not setting well. 412 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,120 Speaker 2: But then they changed the center and things were being 413 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:40,640 Speaker 2: set better. 414 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 5: They should make you the color commentator. 415 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 6: So it was in match adjustments, my Skinner. 416 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:46,800 Speaker 2: That's exactly right. We could use some of those on 417 00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 2: the other right. Let's switch for a second. We'll go 418 00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:50,840 Speaker 2: the phones in a minute. I'm gonna have Craig Skinner 419 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 2: at ten thirty and then I'll go to the phones. 420 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 2: Let's talk football. Kentucky Louisville Saturday. Louisville is the favorite, 421 00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:00,480 Speaker 2: but who knows what you're gonna get from Louisville. I'm 422 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:04,240 Speaker 2: hearing sources are telling me the quarterback's gonna play, all right. 423 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 2: I don't know if that's in the news or not. 424 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:08,639 Speaker 2: This is just this was on this morning. I got 425 00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:10,280 Speaker 2: a message. So I think there's a good chance the 426 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 2: quarterback plays the starter. But they're gonna be out with 427 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,840 Speaker 2: their top three running backs, out with their their top 428 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:19,480 Speaker 2: wide receiver. I wanted to ask you, though, the Vince 429 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:23,720 Speaker 2: Marrow piece of this, like, how much do you think 430 00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:27,679 Speaker 2: the fan base and specifically that coaching staff wants to 431 00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:28,160 Speaker 2: beat him? 432 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 6: Well, fan base a lot, Yes, the coaching staff probably 433 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 6: a lot, and they won't admit it. 434 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:35,400 Speaker 2: But I really think I would say the coaching staff 435 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 2: probably wants to even more than the fan. 436 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:39,720 Speaker 6: Well, I'll put the players above that, because you got 437 00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 6: to remember, Vince went through spring, Vince recruited these guys, 438 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:47,320 Speaker 6: Vince looked at them. He left in July, like even 439 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:50,159 Speaker 6: the new transfers new Vince. I mean, he brought them here, 440 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 6: helped build that team, and then left in the middle 441 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:55,600 Speaker 6: of the summer. So Mark, he said things, you know, 442 00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 6: nice things. I guess there's been some personal things that 443 00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:00,159 Speaker 6: he and Vince dealt with together back home, maybe some 444 00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 6: tragedy or something he didn't really allude to. He was 445 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:04,160 Speaker 6: playing it off. But I bet those players are gonna 446 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:05,600 Speaker 6: look over there seeing a guy that left him in 447 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:06,359 Speaker 6: the middle of the summer. 448 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 2: You can love somebody, Ryan, they can be like a 449 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:12,200 Speaker 2: brother to you and all that, but you still want 450 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:14,640 Speaker 2: to beat him. I mean, I I told the story 451 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 2: about how I grew up hating the Washington then called 452 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 2: Redskins because my friend Trevor liked him. That is the 453 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,320 Speaker 2: reason I didn't like him, and I love Trevor. But 454 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:25,520 Speaker 2: it didn't matter the fact that Trevor liked him make 455 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:29,680 Speaker 2: me want to dislike him even more. You know, Mark Stoops, 456 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 2: you know it. He it has to annoy how much 457 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:36,399 Speaker 2: credit his friend got for all the recruiting, Even if 458 00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 2: Vince deserved it all, it had to annoy, right. He 459 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:44,639 Speaker 2: probably wants that Saturday in part for that as much 460 00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 2: as anything. 461 00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 3: You're right, man, Sure it's for boy eligibility. Sure it's 462 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,479 Speaker 3: on their home field, sure where they're underdogs. But you 463 00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:52,639 Speaker 3: want to beat Vince maryl who's over there in red 464 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:55,200 Speaker 3: on that sideline on Saturday. Like Drew said, he recruited 465 00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:57,640 Speaker 3: most of these guys on the Kentucky team. They want 466 00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:00,479 Speaker 3: to prove to him, you made a mistake. We're the 467 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 3: better team. You should have stayed here. I forgot he 468 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 3: stayed till July. 469 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 2: I mean right, some of these guys got trapped in 470 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:10,240 Speaker 2: here essentially, even well, I mean trapped. Maybe they liked it, 471 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:13,399 Speaker 2: but either way, they were here, and then he deserved. 472 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:15,479 Speaker 5: It's still hard to believe that Vince is over at Louisville. 473 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 4: You know, there was nobody who's more anti Louisville ELL's 474 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 4: Down than Vince Merrow. 475 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:21,119 Speaker 5: And then he joins the Louisville team. 476 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:24,920 Speaker 2: It's just no. I mean, listen, I love Vince Marrow. 477 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:29,479 Speaker 2: Oh yeah. With that said, dude was doing ELL's Down, 478 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:33,960 Speaker 2: mocking Louisville for years, and I probably said to him 479 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:39,480 Speaker 2: fifty times on the phone. You go anywhere else, I'm 480 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,520 Speaker 2: wearing the paraphernalia and cheering for you, but if you 481 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 2: go to Louisville, I hope you lose every game and 482 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:49,040 Speaker 2: I will boo you every single time you walk on 483 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:52,679 Speaker 2: the field. And then he went, so I owe it 484 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:56,199 Speaker 2: to him to when he walks out boo right in 485 00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:58,639 Speaker 2: his face, Drew. I mean, I know I have to 486 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 2: he's my friend, but I don't care. He knows the deal. 487 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:01,359 Speaker 2: He was. 488 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 6: He was on the good side of this rivalry for 489 00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:06,200 Speaker 6: more than a decade. Didn't he one year tweet mid 490 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 6: game like from the Louisville sideline talking trash about. 491 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 2: Yes, he talked trash before the He was tweeting before 492 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 2: the game was over. One of those years we beat 493 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:17,520 Speaker 2: him by So he knows what he did. 494 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:19,960 Speaker 6: It's not like he's gonna be surprised by the reception 495 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 6: the Kentucky fans there given me. 496 00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 2: He knows exactly. 497 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:22,879 Speaker 5: He has to understand. 498 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 8: You know. 499 00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 4: The one thing that surprised me about the interview you 500 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,199 Speaker 4: did with Rick Patino is Rick Patino seemed like he 501 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,760 Speaker 4: didn't understand why Kentucky fans didn't like him when he 502 00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:31,120 Speaker 4: went to LITWA. 503 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 5: But thence he knows this. He absolutely knows. 504 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:36,679 Speaker 2: Do you uh? How do you feel about it?

It seems 510 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 3: like it's reversed a little bit. It seems like they're kind 511 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:51,399 Speaker 3: of checking out. They got guys who all of a 512 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 3: sudden are sitting out. They don't want to get hurt 513 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 3: for the draft coming up and things like that. They 514 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 3: got their quarterback, Miller Miller Miss.

So that 524 00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:21,399 Speaker 3: just adds to our expectations to win tomorrow. 525 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:24,359 Speaker 7: That's a really fun, great fun fact. 526 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:27,240 Speaker 2: I mean when I hear that fact, I'm like, that 527 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 2: is so much fun. 528 00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:31,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, we have their number there while we playing the game. 529 00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:33,240 Speaker 4: It's a guaranteed win, guaranteed win. 530 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:35,719 Speaker 2: But are you with me, Drew, Like I have no. 531 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 2: You could give me any result us by twenty, them 532 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 2: by twenty, and I wouldn't be shocked. 533 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:43,720 Speaker 6: I've already hammered the bats. The Governor's Cup has been 534 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:45,680 Speaker 6: good to be financially for several years. I don't know 535 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 6: why they keep making us the underdog when we won 536 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:49,360 Speaker 6: so many a row, but I'm counting on that one 537 00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:51,800 Speaker 6: more time. Do need the injury report to look good though, 538 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:53,560 Speaker 6: that's sir. 539 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 2: There's a lot on the line.

Craig Skinner, the coach of UK Volleyball. Craig, 550 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,480 Speaker 2: I love that stat. They hadn't had the tournament forever 551 00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:31,199 Speaker 2: and so you all just went out and won the 552 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 2: first one. What was that like last night? Oh? 553 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 9: Just an incredible match and environment, and you know, the 554 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 9: SEC did a phenomenal job putting that on for the 555 00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 9: first time ever and really investing in volleyball and recognizing, 556 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:48,720 Speaker 9: you know, the momentum that has and for us to 557 00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 9: pull that out after basically being dead in the water 558 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 9: after set to it was an even in set three. 559 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,680 Speaker 9: It was just an amazing accomplishment for our team. 560 00:23:57,960 --> 00:23:59,520 Speaker 2: You say dead in the water, I mean it was 561 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:03,400 Speaker 2: twenty three nineteen in the third set, you call time out. 562 00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:06,920 Speaker 2: They went to the sideline reporter. You probably don't even 563 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:08,920 Speaker 2: know this because you're coaching the game, and they said, 564 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:15,160 Speaker 2: and the sideline reporter said something like, UK's volleyball has 565 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 2: come out with more energy out of this huddle than 566 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:21,959 Speaker 2: I've seen all night. I'm interested interested to see what 567 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:23,880 Speaker 2: they'll do about it. And I was sitting with Ryan 568 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:25,359 Speaker 2: at the bar and I was like, that's kind of 569 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:26,960 Speaker 2: a weird thing to say the game, the match is 570 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,840 Speaker 2: almost over. And then you did what happened in that 571 00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:33,120 Speaker 2: time out? What did she see that made her say that. 572 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:38,359 Speaker 9: You know, I don't you know, we've earned the opportunity 573 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:40,720 Speaker 9: to be in this moment and don't let this slip away. 574 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:44,320 Speaker 9: And you know, our team is they run the enthusiasm, 575 00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:46,240 Speaker 9: the fire of the intensity. I mean, I don't have 576 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:49,760 Speaker 9: to do anything to motivate them to compete. I mean, 577 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:54,200 Speaker 9: their internal competitive drive is unmatched, you know, so far, 578 00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:58,600 Speaker 9: and they just they never flinched whatsoever, you know, and 579 00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:01,560 Speaker 9: every point in the match. And the sign of great 580 00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:04,040 Speaker 9: teams is they have no recollection of what just happened. 581 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:06,200 Speaker 9: They're just totally consumed of what's going to happen in 582 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:08,280 Speaker 9: the next whistle. And this is the way this team 583 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:10,639 Speaker 9: has been all year and they continue to do it. 584 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:15,440 Speaker 2: Last night, all right, I'm not we're not official commentators, 585 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:18,040 Speaker 2: but I set with Ryan Lemon at the bar last night. Ryan, 586 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:20,080 Speaker 2: did you think we've had good analysis? 587 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:21,200 Speaker 7: Listen? Coach. 588 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:23,160 Speaker 3: I was blessed to be able to sit by a 589 00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:26,520 Speaker 3: volleyball expert last night watching him because he pointed out 590 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:27,880 Speaker 3: early on our sets are off. 591 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:31,520 Speaker 2: Here's what I said. I said, don't let him, don't 592 00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 2: let him read it wrong. I said that it felt 593 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 2: like to me that the sets, which I guess is this, 594 00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 2: you know, when you lob it up in the air 595 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,679 Speaker 2: for the spike, that they were off in the first 596 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 2: and second sets. And he was making fun of me 597 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:47,080 Speaker 2: and I kept saying it, but then it felt like 598 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:49,439 Speaker 2: it got better now, am I was I wrong in 599 00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 2: reading that? 600 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,199 Speaker 9: No, the connection was not where it needed to be 601 00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:57,120 Speaker 9: in it and it actually started with the first contact. 602 00:25:57,160 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 9: The server was a little bit rough, was off, which 603 00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 9: creates issues for the setter to get her feet there 604 00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:06,480 Speaker 9: and create the same rhythm, and you know, it's it's 605 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 9: a combination of all of it that Yes, the last 606 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:12,240 Speaker 9: you know, Spike kill show whatever you want to do 607 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 9: was not we're not getting full gas and that's a 608 00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:18,720 Speaker 9: combination of the tempo and rhythm of execution, and for 609 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:20,560 Speaker 9: sure that was off, and then it got better as 610 00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 9: the match went on. So I mean, I think you guys, 611 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:25,120 Speaker 9: should you know, call ESPN and see if you can 612 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:26,399 Speaker 9: get on and call a match. 613 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 2: I told you, let coach. We were at the bar 614 00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:33,120 Speaker 2: last night and it was you know, I just thought, well, 615 00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:36,400 Speaker 2: it's the SEC Final, it's a random Tuesday night. Let's 616 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:38,199 Speaker 2: have a watch party and see what happens. And the 617 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:41,800 Speaker 2: place was absolutely full, and a lot of those people 618 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 2: are people who come to your regular games at home 619 00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 2: and obviously weren't able to go to Savannah. But it 620 00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:49,639 Speaker 2: was loud, it was exciting, I said, it was like 621 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:52,919 Speaker 2: an atmosphere for a good basketball game. How does that 622 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,640 Speaker 2: make you feel that this is happening for your program 623 00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:58,960 Speaker 2: and the fan support from the Big Blue Nation? 624 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:03,720 Speaker 9: Yeah, you know, I had several opportunities to be a 625 00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:05,679 Speaker 9: head coach when I was looking back, you know, I 626 00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 9: was twenty four to twenty five years or thirty four 627 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:10,800 Speaker 9: or thirty five years old. And the reason I wanted 628 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 9: to come to Kentucky was because it's the flagship institution 629 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 9: in the state where there's no pro sports. And I 630 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:20,080 Speaker 9: guarantee if you build something special, they will get behind 631 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:23,119 Speaker 9: and be all in. And it's proven true. And you know, 632 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:25,959 Speaker 9: you know, thankfully we made the right choice as a family, 633 00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 9: and and you know, you just can't build a special 634 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:31,640 Speaker 9: program without a fan base like this. And can't thank 635 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:34,160 Speaker 9: everybody enough. I mean, I don't. I had over three 636 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 9: hundred text messages last night, a half hour after the match, 637 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 9: and it's just an incredible feeling to be part of it. 638 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:44,879 Speaker 2: All right, Well, sorry about that.

Who's next? Trevor is next? Trevor? 726 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:56,760 Speaker 11: Go ahead, Trevor, Hey Matt, Happy Thanksgiving? Heed to everybody, 727 00:31:57,520 --> 00:32:02,120 Speaker 11: go ahead, Happy Thanksgiving. It's about football this week. So 728 00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:05,640 Speaker 11: all this talk about going bowling with stoops to kind 729 00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 11: of determine how it's side of the fans are. Does 730 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 11: the result of the bowl game, you know, come in 731 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:12,680 Speaker 11: to play when it talks about our coach next season. 732 00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 11: If we go in there and we get blown out 733 00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:16,560 Speaker 11: by a non SCC team, does that change anybody's mind. 734 00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:19,200 Speaker 2: No, not at all, because you've already made the decision. 735 00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 2: You've already made the decision. I appreciate the call because 736 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:25,480 Speaker 2: of recruiting and because of the portal. The decision has 737 00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:28,960 Speaker 2: to be made before the bowl game. So practically speaking, 738 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:30,920 Speaker 2: the bowl game is going to have no impact because 739 00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 2: you're not gonna make the change after the bowl game. 740 00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,440 Speaker 2: So you you have to decide. And plus the bowl games, 741 00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 2: I'm not gonna say they're meaningless meaningless, but they're kind 742 00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 2: of meaningless because you don't even know who's gonna play 743 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:45,920 Speaker 2: in these games anymore. So to me, the final determination, 744 00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:48,040 Speaker 2: and I think we all believe Stoops is going to 745 00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:50,600 Speaker 2: be back, but to the extent that it could not 746 00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:54,160 Speaker 2: happen Ryan, the final determination is the Louisville game. The 747 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:56,600 Speaker 2: decision has to be made before the bowl game. If 748 00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:58,680 Speaker 2: you're gonna have a if you're gonna have a team next. 749 00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:01,440 Speaker 3: Year, Yeah, the bowl get into a bowl game is 750 00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:03,280 Speaker 3: so import because you get that extra month of practice. 751 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,120 Speaker 3: You're gonna make this decision already ahead in advance, till 752 00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:08,960 Speaker 3: you got your continuity going into the spring football season. 753 00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:11,600 Speaker 3: You take him out of that equation and somebody's come 754 00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:13,760 Speaker 3: in and gotta start all over, not till next spring. 755 00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:17,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, they're not gonna do that, so we'll know. I mean, honestly, 756 00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:24,160 Speaker 2: we'll know pretty much. Drew in the postgame press conference 757 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 2: on Saturday, Mark Stoops will be asked, are you going 758 00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:30,240 Speaker 2: to be back next year? And he'll have If he's 759 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 2: not gonna be here, he'd have to at least go, well, 760 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:36,200 Speaker 2: I'm gonna determine now. I guess Mitch and Mitch Barnhart 761 00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:39,160 Speaker 2: will be there and somebody will ask him to So 762 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:41,959 Speaker 2: by the time my postgame shut show starts at four 763 00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:43,960 Speaker 2: thirty Saturday, we're gonna know. 764 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:47,480 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's about to get chaotic if whether change or not, 765 00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:50,320 Speaker 6: there's a lot going on. Signing Day is next Wednesday, 766 00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:52,200 Speaker 6: so I mean, as soon as Louisville's over, your high 767 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:54,840 Speaker 6: school class is signing a few days later. Uh, the 768 00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:57,720 Speaker 6: transfer portal it's beginning of January. But it's the same 769 00:33:57,720 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 6: week as some bowl games. There are gonna be some 770 00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:01,520 Speaker 6: teams that are in a tough spot. It's the worst 771 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:04,400 Speaker 6: NCAA calendar they could do because there's gonna be coaches 772 00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:07,080 Speaker 6: in another city at a bowl game when they need 773 00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 6: to be having transfers on campus. 774 00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:12,279 Speaker 2: Well, I mean even yesterday Oklahoma State Shannon announced their 775 00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 2: new coach and he's the coach of North Texas and 776 00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:19,520 Speaker 2: they're gonna be playing for the American champ Conference championship, 777 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:22,480 Speaker 2: and if they beat Tulane in that game, they have 778 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:24,480 Speaker 2: a chance to go to the playoffs. I mean it's 779 00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:27,319 Speaker 2: an outside chance, but it's a chance. And so the 780 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:29,840 Speaker 2: North Texas coach said, I'm going to coach my team 781 00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:32,400 Speaker 2: through the end of the season, but then go to 782 00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:36,600 Speaker 2: Oklahoma State. That's gotta be awkward. 783 00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:40,480 Speaker 4: It's so bizarre the coaching carousel on the timeline with 784 00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:41,640 Speaker 4: the playoffs and everything. 785 00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:44,719 Speaker 5: I don't know why they can't adjust something. 786 00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:49,840 Speaker 2: Semesters though, I mean, like there is school. 787 00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:55,000 Speaker 5: No, I mean, we're athlete students, not sing athletes. 788 00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:58,480 Speaker 2: You're right, but part of the problem is they have 789 00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:01,400 Speaker 2: to have the portal in time for people to go 790 00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:04,640 Speaker 2: to school. But then that also makes it during the 791 00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:06,880 Speaker 2: playoff and Ryan, so I really don't know what the 792 00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:09,480 Speaker 2: NCAA is supposed to do. You could move the portal 793 00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:12,399 Speaker 2: to after the playoff, but then you're essentially acknowledging these 794 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:15,800 Speaker 2: kids are not going to school because school have already 795 00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:16,840 Speaker 2: started at that point. 796 00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 3: That's what this lame Kiffen thing is so interesting to me. 797 00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:21,600 Speaker 3: They play Friday night in the Egg Bowl Saturday, he's 798 00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:22,680 Speaker 3: got to announce his decision. 799 00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:26,520 Speaker 2: What was my prediction? Where's he announcing the decision? College 800 00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:26,960 Speaker 2: game day? 801 00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:28,560 Speaker 7: College game Write that down. 802 00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:32,040 Speaker 2: He will say he will make it to where he 803 00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:34,960 Speaker 2: is on college game day making that decision. Does anybody 804 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:38,600 Speaker 2: want that prediction? Anybody want to take that bet? I 805 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:41,160 Speaker 2: think that's what's gonna happen. If you have pain, stiffness, 806 00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:43,839 Speaker 2: or a numbing sensation preventing you from enjoying watching your 807 00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:47,280 Speaker 2: favorite teams.

That's a shame. That's another thing that we 841 00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:17,560 Speaker 2: collectively did that. The internet is ruined for us. 842 00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:20,160 Speaker 5: I love the fights. Now we don't get the fights anymore, that's. 843 00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:23,000 Speaker 2: Right, all right, So let's I wanna talk just a 844 00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:25,839 Speaker 2: second about uh, the two of these two guys next 845 00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:28,680 Speaker 2: to me here, uh Drew Franklin, or as he's been 846 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:34,400 Speaker 2: called this week, Frank Franklin and Ryan Limit. So you 847 00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:40,200 Speaker 2: too have kind of been polar opposites on opinions this week, 848 00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:43,000 Speaker 2: Shannon and I have kind of been in between you guys, 849 00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:46,440 Speaker 2: but you two have been at various ends. Uh. Drew 850 00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:50,719 Speaker 2: has taken the kind of extreme anti I don't want 851 00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:53,040 Speaker 2: to say anti Stoops, but kind of anti state of 852 00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:56,239 Speaker 2: the program. And Ryan kind of surprised a lot of 853 00:37:56,239 --> 00:38:00,759 Speaker 2: people by Monday saying that no matter what, he would 854 00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:02,879 Speaker 2: bring Stoops back even if there was not a buyo, 855 00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:05,719 Speaker 2: which I thought was kind of an amazing thing. So 856 00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 2: here's what I wanted to do, Shannon. You know, I'm 857 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:13,399 Speaker 2: almost I'm a lawyer, or was I like debate? So 858 00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:17,200 Speaker 2: do you have you pull up a clock? All right, 859 00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:20,200 Speaker 2: I'm gonna let freight they they are not prepared for this. 860 00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:23,279 Speaker 2: This is this is completely this is completely cod I'm 861 00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:26,719 Speaker 2: very prepared, completely Cope, I'm gonna get both of these 862 00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:32,640 Speaker 2: guys to give the one minute case without interruption, which 863 00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:36,799 Speaker 2: is rare on this show, without interruption of why they 864 00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:41,760 Speaker 2: feel the way they feel. Drew, change needs to be made, Ryan, 865 00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:45,839 Speaker 2: No change needs to be made. Uh to the jury. Now, 866 00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:49,120 Speaker 2: I want you to pick a number one through ten, 867 00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:51,400 Speaker 2: and whoever's closer we'll get to go. We'll get to 868 00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:53,120 Speaker 2: choose where they go first or last. What do you have? 869 00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:55,200 Speaker 6: I will go with lucky number four. 870 00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:55,840 Speaker 2: What's yours? 871 00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:57,919 Speaker 7: I'll go five? Then I guess it was two. 872 00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:00,000 Speaker 2: So would you like to go first or last? Year? 873 00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,000 Speaker 6: I'll go first. I'll let him collect his stay right. 874 00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:05,520 Speaker 2: So, Drew Franklin, Shannon, you have one minute off the 875 00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:08,480 Speaker 2: clock or I was I would say, Frank Franklin give 876 00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:11,520 Speaker 2: the case as to why change needs to be made 877 00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:12,400 Speaker 2: with UK football. 878 00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:15,880 Speaker 6: Oh, I'm gonna need more than a minute. My problem 879 00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:18,800 Speaker 6: is with the entire big picture that includes Mark Stoops. 880 00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:23,800 Speaker 6: But we have the longest tenured ad, the longest tenured coach. 881 00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:27,640 Speaker 6: What are we the best at? What are we even 882 00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:31,440 Speaker 6: halfway up the sec at? We're almost dead last in recruiting. 883 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:34,879 Speaker 6: I think we're currently fifteenth Vandy's twenty spots ahead game 884 00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:37,560 Speaker 6: day atmosphere. I think we fall into sixteenth. The people 885 00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:40,840 Speaker 6: raving about Nashville are acting like Vandy has turn a corner. 886 00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:43,880 Speaker 6: We've been passed by Vandy. We've been passed by Missouri, 887 00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:47,480 Speaker 6: We've been passed by South Carolina, Mississippi State. We can debate, 888 00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:49,279 Speaker 6: but they're having a pretty good year now. I don't 889 00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:51,640 Speaker 6: know their atmosphere. Not a big fan of Startfield myself. 890 00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:54,600 Speaker 6: Stoops has been here a long time. We pretty much 891 00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:57,279 Speaker 6: know the gripes with him. First half stuff, run of 892 00:39:57,280 --> 00:39:59,480 Speaker 6: the ball. We all know that. I don't know that 893 00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:01,879 Speaker 6: a new code coach bringing him back whatever. I don't 894 00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:04,799 Speaker 6: think anything will work until UK Athletics wakes up and 895 00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:07,560 Speaker 6: tries to invest in football and making an experienced people 896 00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:09,959 Speaker 6: want to be a part of. They've won one home 897 00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:12,279 Speaker 6: game in a couple of years. The record against the 898 00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:13,600 Speaker 6: SEC is not good. 899 00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:18,600 Speaker 2: When time time time No one minute time, that's time. 900 00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:21,080 Speaker 6: I was just getting started, okay, but that's that's. 901 00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:22,880 Speaker 2: Why we have a minute. That's why we have a minute. 902 00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:25,640 Speaker 2: All right, So that is the case. Uh sort of 903 00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:28,480 Speaker 2: change needs to be made now, Ryan Lemon, you have 904 00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:31,640 Speaker 2: one minute to give the No matter what you would 905 00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:33,880 Speaker 2: bring Mark Stoops back case go. 906 00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:37,000 Speaker 3: Mark Steups is the best football coach at UK in 907 00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:39,399 Speaker 3: my lifetime and most of our lifetimes. He's done things 908 00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:41,800 Speaker 3: here most of us thought never could be done. Working 909 00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:43,759 Speaker 3: in the media, I've been with six different coaches now 910 00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:46,560 Speaker 3: and he's by far did things that we were one 911 00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:48,520 Speaker 3: in ten. One year we were two and nine. One 912 00:40:48,600 --> 00:40:51,040 Speaker 3: year we had the nation's longest losing streak in the nineties. 913 00:40:51,360 --> 00:40:53,919 Speaker 3: He's turned it around. He's turned the culture around now. 914 00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:56,279 Speaker 3: Granted the last couple of years haven't gone the way 915 00:40:56,360 --> 00:40:58,840 Speaker 3: we wanted, but we're set up very well for the future. 916 00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:00,799 Speaker 3: We got a hot young core back, we got a 917 00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:03,080 Speaker 3: hot young tight end, we got a hot young receiver, 918 00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:05,239 Speaker 3: we got a hot young running back. We are set 919 00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:08,680 Speaker 3: up to maybe make a move and improve ourselves where 920 00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:12,120 Speaker 3: we've not lose those games last couple of years. So 921 00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:15,160 Speaker 3: my other thing is I'm always just, you know, afraid 922 00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:16,680 Speaker 3: what you wish for. You know, you can want a 923 00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:19,120 Speaker 3: new coach. Who's to say that guy can't do what 924 00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:21,160 Speaker 3: stoops are has been able to do here. I think 925 00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:23,399 Speaker 3: Stoops does things here that nobody else could maybe other 926 00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:27,120 Speaker 3: coaches could achieve. He got ten wins twice in recent years. 927 00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:29,319 Speaker 3: When when that ever happened to UK football? So be 928 00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:31,880 Speaker 3: careful what you wish wish for. The grass isn't always 929 00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:33,839 Speaker 3: greener on the other side of the fence. It's green 930 00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:35,759 Speaker 3: right now and it's in bluegrass time. 931 00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:40,520 Speaker 2: All right. Well you you timed it well to tell me, okay, 932 00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:43,000 Speaker 2: so quickly we got twenty seconds. How many of you 933 00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:46,760 Speaker 2: side with Frank? How many of you side with Ryan? 934 00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:51,760 Speaker 2: So Frank is up a lot of you didn't vote, 935 00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:54,640 Speaker 2: I will note. But Frank's going. 936 00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:56,080 Speaker 6: Around too about how we have to get a loan 937 00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:56,600 Speaker 6: for Wi Fi. 938 00:41:57,600 --> 00:42:01,319 Speaker 2: We will take a break, come back our number two. 939 00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:03,120 Speaker 2: This is Kentucky Sports Radio.
