Speaker 3: you have it? Yeah, right off the top. University of

23
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:17,120
Speaker 3: Arkansas has announced John Caliperry as their new coach. Just

24
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:21,320
Speaker 3: happened about two minutes ago. He is officially the new

25
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,200
Speaker 3: coach in Arkansas and the press conference is likely to

26
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:28,080
Speaker 3: be this afternoon. So not we knew it was coming,

27
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,399
Speaker 3: but now it is official. Been a big twenty four

28
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 3: hours since this show happened. Yesterday. We did a special

29
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 3: edition from three to five pm yesterday with the announcement

30
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 3: that cal was leaving. You can listen to that on podcasts.

31
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,720
Speaker 3: I highly recommend it. We'll talk more about it later,

32
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 3: but I talked a lot during those two hours.

33
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 4: So let's do this.

34
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 3: You guys have not talked since it became official. I mean,

35
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 3: we knew it was happening, but still different when you

36
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:57,880
Speaker 3: see the video saying goodbye.

37
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 4: I'll start with you, Ryan, what's.

38
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:04,280
Speaker 2: Your thoughts on the cal Perry era ending officially?

39
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 5: You know when we sat here in this booth yesterday,

40
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 5: you could you could feel it. It was it was

41
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,239
Speaker 5: about to happen. I told you that I can feel

42
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,520
Speaker 5: it my gut something. It could be a crazy afternoon,

43
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,600
Speaker 5: and then we see Cal's video and it made me sad.

44
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 5: I mean, he looked genuinely sad.

45
00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 4: I think, I.

46
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,520
Speaker 5: Think that really had a big effect on a lot

47
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:27,359
Speaker 5: of us. But then Ellen's video made me even more sad.

48
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 5: She's the one that really hit me was her video.

49
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 5: And so if you ask me my knixtional reaction of

50
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:35,119
Speaker 5: him leaving, I'm I'm I'm sad. I mean, I really

51
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 5: I'm I'll be excited when the new coach gets here,

52
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:40,080
Speaker 5: I'll be on board one hundred percent. But for today,

53
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 5: for this moment, it's tough to see him go.

54
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,800
Speaker 4: Drew, you picked a great two days to take a vacation.

55
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:49,320
Speaker 3: Can't leave you all alone for forty eight hours, so

56
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 3: you know you when you were here, Cal is still

57
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:56,240
Speaker 3: coming back. So what's your take on the last seventy

58
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:56,959
Speaker 3: two hours.

59
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,079
Speaker 2: For one, you know when you get back from vacation

60
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,760
Speaker 2: and you have that like anxiety, like getting back, I

61
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,519
Speaker 2: have that times a million. I would think, so, oh yeah,

62
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 2: because so everyone knows I went to a place that

63
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,919
Speaker 2: doesn't allow phones, so as you all are getting thing

64
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,800
Speaker 2: every hour Monday night, at about midnight, I didn't even

65
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 2: know about the stroller and like.

66
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:15,120
Speaker 4: You didn't know about the stroller.

67
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 2: When I say I didn't know anything Monday, I did

68
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:20,919
Speaker 2: not know anything Monday. Nothing, absolutely zero. At about seven

69
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 2: thirty am, I called my dad and my wife said,

70
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 2: I'm out all day because I went to the Masters.

71
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 2: You cannot take your phone, they did, you don't have

72
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 2: an option. So I mean, I've been taking all this

73
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:33,799
Speaker 2: It's a completely different experience experience than you all. I'm

74
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 2: reading some stuff has already happened, and I'm getting it

75
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 2: all at once as I get back. But it's been

76
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 2: a surreal, surreal time for me taking it all in.

77
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:43,240
Speaker 2: But now that it's happened, I'm kind of in the

78
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 2: I'm like Ryan said, I'm it's sad. I thought Cal's

79
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 2: video was very good, by the way, when that first

80
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 2: popped up and I was gonna hit play, I'm thinking

81
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 2: there's a lot of directions he can go with this,

82
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:54,760
Speaker 2: and I thought he did a really good job expressing, Uh,

83
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:59,160
Speaker 2: he appreciate he did. But also, like Ryan said, even

84
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 2: though the Cal thing got me lots of friends posting stuff,

85
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 2: you know, we have friends that are very close to him.

86
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 2: I'm thinking about them now. I know they're sad, but

87
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 2: the Ellen video got me. Who knew that Ellen Caliperry

88
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 2: Instagram shout out would be the one that got me.

89
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 2: But I think both of them did a good job

90
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 2: in expressing how much this place means to them, and

91
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:19,479
Speaker 2: it felt like they're hurting and leaving, you know.

92
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 3: So so it gets announced that like two o'clock Cow's

93
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,280
Speaker 3: video comes out, we decided to do that special show

94
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,599
Speaker 3: from three to five. So my work mode goes completely

95
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:33,040
Speaker 3: into focusing on that, and so we do that and

96
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,800
Speaker 3: I'm completely focused. Like I said, you can listen to

97
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:37,920
Speaker 3: that if you hear that at the end of the show.

98
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:42,039
Speaker 3: Out of nowhere. Spontaneously, I just decided to list the

99
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:45,520
Speaker 3: best Caliperi moments and it's about six minutes, and I

100
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,479
Speaker 3: verbally went through all the best moments. Mario's put it

101
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:50,479
Speaker 3: to video, but there's a lot of copies of it

102
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:52,839
Speaker 3: out there. First of all, I couldn't believe I could

103
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 3: remember all those the way I did back to back there.

104
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:57,279
Speaker 5: It was great, you really killed it. It was really good.

105
00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:59,599
Speaker 2: I heard that on my way home. That was really good,

106
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 2: the whole s but the memories was awesome.

107
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:02,160
Speaker 4: So I went through all those memories.

108
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:06,120
Speaker 3: Then I got in the car, and I gotta tell

109
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 3: you the people at eld Nepaul in Louisville, I apologize

110
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,920
Speaker 3: if you saw me in the booth. The waiter came

111
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,719
Speaker 3: up to me and said, I saw you on TV yesterday,

112
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:19,159
Speaker 3: and I said yeah. And then I got on my

113
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:22,719
Speaker 3: phone and I saw Haley Minogue, who used to be

114
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:26,679
Speaker 3: who used to be a KSR college writer. She posted

115
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:30,120
Speaker 3: pictures of when she was our intern, which was the

116
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 3: beginning of the cal era. And I saw that picture

117
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 3: of the three of us with Cal and that was

118
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 3: probably twenty twelve, twenty eleven, and I saw that picture

119
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 3: and I looked at it and first of all, it's

120
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 3: such a KSR picture, like I'm talking to Cal, distinctly focused.

121
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,800
Speaker 3: Drew is in the back throwing up the three goggles,

122
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 3: photobomb photobombing.

123
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 2: Looking like he's twenty years old.

124
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,520
Speaker 3: And then you thick, You are thick, and you're wandering

125
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:02,080
Speaker 3: around on your phone and it's like that's the perfect

126
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,960
Speaker 3: chas our picture. And that got me started on about

127
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 3: thirty minutes of It's like all these memories started coming

128
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:12,040
Speaker 3: through my head. And I told my mom, who called

129
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,680
Speaker 3: me after I was done eating. It wasn't so much.

130
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:18,800
Speaker 3: I mean, look the cow I'm well, I'll miss cow.

131
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,600
Speaker 3: Cow was great here. I do think it was time

132
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 3: for that era to end. But it's more like what

133
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 3: that represented. You know, I'm forty five years old. He

134
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 3: was here for fifteen years. That's a third of my life, right,

135
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 3: I mean, that's a third of my life. It's half

136
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:35,440
Speaker 3: your life, right like I mean, it's and it's the

137
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,160
Speaker 3: part of my life that completely changed the rest of it.

138
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,560
Speaker 4: So then I'm sitting there and this.

139
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:42,760
Speaker 3: Is what I do, and I admit I start to

140
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 3: get choked up because what I then do is replay

141
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:50,040
Speaker 3: all the stuff we did as part of it. Like

142
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:54,479
Speaker 3: I'm sitting there replaying all those moments going to I

143
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,360
Speaker 3: mean I could literally do the same six minutes.

144
00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:57,840
Speaker 4: But about us.

145
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:00,239
Speaker 3: But like going to New York with you to see

146
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,360
Speaker 3: John Wall play against Yukon and you get punched in

147
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:04,400
Speaker 3: the face by Yukon.

148
00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:06,680
Speaker 2: I'm hoping we get them back for that. I might

149
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:08,360
Speaker 2: get the last laugh, hopefully.

150
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 3: You know, going to Syracuse and watching them lose and

151
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,160
Speaker 3: standing in that locker room and watching all those guys cry,

152
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:20,400
Speaker 3: and then in Newark when they when the Scolar brothers,

153
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:24,320
Speaker 3: Bradley and I walk to the to the to Newark

154
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:27,280
Speaker 3: to watch Kentucky win those games to go to the

155
00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 3: Final four twenty twelve in New Orleans, celebrating with Josh

156
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 3: Hopkins and Rex Chapman and standing on the floor.

157
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 4: And then you know, all these moments over the years and.

158
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 3: All the things that have happened in our lives during

159
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,720
Speaker 3: those years, you know, think about all that. Like I

160
00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:47,040
Speaker 3: got reflective like that, and I got emotional. I really did.

161
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,880
Speaker 3: It was like I said to my mom, it's just

162
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 3: the end of an era. It doesn't mean it shouldn't

163
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 3: have been ended, but it's the end of an era

164
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 3: in the Kentucky basketball world.

165
00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 4: But for those of us that do this also in our.

166
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 5: Lives, I totally agree with you. When you I was

167
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 5: listening to a lot of your show when I was

168
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 5: in my office, and there's the picture just like you've

169
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 5: got you and col At cal Parry camp. I got

170
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:11,080
Speaker 5: a picture of Calan. What about that picture? Like that

171
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 5: picture right there? Yeah, of me, cal and Matthew Mitchell.

172
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 5: That was in Mark Stoop's basement. Okay, and look how

173
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:23,120
Speaker 5: happy and young the three of us look in that picture.

174
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 5: And that was in Mark Stoop's basement right after he

175
00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:29,240
Speaker 5: got hired. Uh huh, Well think about that.

176
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 3: Now, yeah, I mean think about all the myriad of

177
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 3: relationships that are different now since then.

178
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 2: That picture.

179
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,320
Speaker 3: Just look at these pictures behind us, that picture of

180
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,960
Speaker 3: me and Drew with Scott Van Pelt talking about how

181
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:41,439
Speaker 3: we'd gotten sued.

182
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 4: Because we took up for UK against you know, John Higgins.

183
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,360
Speaker 5: That look at that picture at camp Out. Yet that cow.

184
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 3: Talking to to the fans at camp Out look a

185
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:57,080
Speaker 3: huge crowd. I mean that crowd is unbelievable. Your shirt

186
00:08:57,080 --> 00:09:02,080
Speaker 3: off with arn not given on your chest with Brad Caliperer.

187
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 3: I'm not as proud of that. This is the twenty

188
00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,840
Speaker 3: ten Big Blue Madness. I'm interviewing Drake and I don't

189
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,680
Speaker 3: even know who he is. I honestly don't even know

190
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:11,760
Speaker 3: who I'm talking to right there. It's just all of

191
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,400
Speaker 3: those things. They just flood your mind.

192
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:14,600
Speaker 4: I do.

193
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:17,080
Speaker 3: They really didn't know they'll be great memories in the

194
00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:20,240
Speaker 3: next fifteen years. But there is a sense Drew where

195
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 3: it's like, wow, it really is over.

196
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I've already written this on our website a

197
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 2: week or two ago. But for me, I started KSR

198
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 2: in two thousand and nine and all for fifteen years,

199
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:34,880
Speaker 2: I've told the horrible joke that they got Cal, he

200
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 2: signed Wall and Cousins, and then I joined KSR. We

201
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:41,800
Speaker 2: were like four pack. I always talk about Imaginario, imagine scenario.

202
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 2: We all put our hats together. But I've told that

203
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 2: horrible joke for fifteen years. But realistically that's what happened,

204
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:49,240
Speaker 2: not that we did it together, but that timeline adds up.

205
00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 2: I started KSR in the middle of Cal landing and

206
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:56,120
Speaker 2: Wall and Cousins getting here, and that's all at least

207
00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 2: professionally with this show. I've only known Caliperi or now.

208
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,760
Speaker 2: I've been a fan forever, but at least professionally with KSR,

209
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 2: like starting this coaching search. This is wild to me

210
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:07,440
Speaker 2: because the day, you know, the month I started, it

211
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 2: was the same time Cal was building his recruit his

212
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:10,480
Speaker 2: first recruiting class.

213
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:12,439
Speaker 3: And there was also a part of me that will

214
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,960
Speaker 3: be honest with you, We're Next year will be the

215
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 3: twentieth year that I've.

216
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 4: Been doing KSR. The website, huh be twenty years next year?

217
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 3: Mario starting Monday, No, I mean this and then me

218
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:32,679
Speaker 3: seeing that picture of you, it was like ten or

219
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,720
Speaker 3: eleven years ago that you were him. Right, twelve years

220
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,000
Speaker 3: ago you were him and now he starts that day.

221
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:38,360
Speaker 4: Huh.

222
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,000
Speaker 2: And ten years before that I was you, and ten

223
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 2: years before that you were.

224
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:44,600
Speaker 5: Me, or maybe twenty years before you.

225
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,719
Speaker 3: But I mean all of that is like, I don't know,

226
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,800
Speaker 3: it just felt it not to get all sappy, but

227
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:54,760
Speaker 3: it just and then you throw in watching Ellen be

228
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 3: sad and watching Cal.

229
00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:59,200
Speaker 4: I mean Cal looks so sad it was. It's just

230
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,320
Speaker 4: a lot. Now with that said, this is what I

231
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 4: want to do.

232
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,199
Speaker 3: I want to spend one segment the next one talking

233
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:07,960
Speaker 3: about how I, after talking to a lot of people,

234
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:11,400
Speaker 3: think Monday went down, how the thing ended, because I

235
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:15,599
Speaker 3: do think it's interesting and I think it's worth understanding.

236
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:18,920
Speaker 3: But then we got to talk about what's next, Yes, right, right,

237
00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 3: because now we wish him the best, but that's over.

238
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 3: So now what's next? And I think there's three people

239
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:29,560
Speaker 3: that are the choices. We'll talk about how it works.

240
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,600
Speaker 3: But let me just ask you this question. If the

241
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:36,840
Speaker 3: next coach is either Danny Hurley, Billy Donovan or Scott Drew,

242
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,960
Speaker 3: which those it UK would certainly want it to not

243
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:45,560
Speaker 3: get past those three. Let's say that they all three

244
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:48,280
Speaker 3: are one. Are there any that would make you disappointed?

245
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,720
Speaker 5: Nope, I'm happy with any of those three. I'm having

246
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:52,840
Speaker 5: a prey down Main Street at any of those three guys.

247
00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:55,640
Speaker 5: I'm on board immediately. At the ten of those three guys.

248
00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:58,720
Speaker 2: Same here, that's uh. I mean I might prefer Hurley

249
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 2: over the other two. You know, I could stay, but

250
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:02,600
Speaker 2: at that tier, they would all get an A if

251
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:03,600
Speaker 2: one of them became the higher.

252
00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 4: How about you, yes, be.

253
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:11,199
Speaker 3: Be not only fine, be very optimistic about the future.

254
00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 3: I mean, for me, Hurley's number one, just because you

255
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 3: got it. If you have a chance to hire the

256
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 3: best coaching college basketball and you can, you go and

257
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:23,800
Speaker 3: do it right. But I think I think my list

258
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 3: might be the exact list that it is. I this

259
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 3: is how I think it's situated right now. Kentucky is

260
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 3: going after Danny Hurley. I think a lot of that's

261
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,839
Speaker 3: happening today. Okay, Now that doesn't mean we'll find out

262
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:40,880
Speaker 3: the answer today, but I think like today's the day.

263
00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:41,760
Speaker 4: The Danny Hurley day.

264
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:44,559
Speaker 3: I think if it doesn't happen, I'm not saying it

265
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:47,560
Speaker 3: would get announced today, but I think if they don't

266
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,000
Speaker 3: get a yes today or If they get a note today,

267
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,520
Speaker 3: then I think Thursday's kind of the Scott Drew.

268
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,680
Speaker 4: Day, right, I think he's the second.

269
00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:56,560
Speaker 3: If they don't get either of those guys, If they

270
00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:58,480
Speaker 3: get no's from both those guys, then I think they

271
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 3: wait till next week and see what hap Billy Donovan

272
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:03,040
Speaker 3: and see what because he can't do anything until the

273
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:06,600
Speaker 3: play in game on the seventeenth, Billy Donovan might actually

274
00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:09,240
Speaker 3: be second in the order if they didn't have to wait.

275
00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:11,720
Speaker 2: But they do have to wait, and you.

276
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:15,040
Speaker 3: Gotta remember there's portal issues, and then what if he wins,

277
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:17,840
Speaker 3: they gotta wait longer. Like what if he wins, you

278
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:20,840
Speaker 3: could end up having to wait even longer. But I

279
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 3: think these next two days are, in my opinion, Danny

280
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 3: Hurley and Scott Drew days. I think they're gonna also

281
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:31,840
Speaker 3: start talking to who their second tier candidates are. But

282
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:35,480
Speaker 3: I get a sense that like there's a one tier

283
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:37,800
Speaker 3: and a two tier, and those three guys are on

284
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:39,560
Speaker 3: the one tier. I think there were a couple other

285
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:43,400
Speaker 3: people on that one tier. I think they reached for

286
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 3: the stars and just got knocked down by some people.

287
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:48,800
Speaker 3: But you're glad they did, sure, right, Like you're glad

288
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:51,040
Speaker 3: you made the phone call to Jay Wright. You know

289
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 3: what I mean, You're glad you made the phone call

290
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:56,680
Speaker 3: to Brad Stevens. But those are the three. I think

291
00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:59,439
Speaker 3: all three of those people have not told u K

292
00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:05,360
Speaker 3: no as of seven o'clock last night. I think the

293
00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 3: reports that Scott Drew was offered last night are not correct,

294
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:13,520
Speaker 3: but it could be correct this morning. I don't know,

295
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:16,800
Speaker 3: but like they're gonna I think they're gonna make Hurley

296
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:20,120
Speaker 3: tell him no first, and then I think that it

297
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,600
Speaker 3: will go to the Drew Donovan. But you get to

298
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:25,480
Speaker 3: answer your question. Get any of those three, I'm good

299
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:25,760
Speaker 3: with it.

300
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, And I thought Billy Donovan's comments yesterday were a

301
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 5: little interested. You know, he said he hadn't been contacted

302
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:32,720
Speaker 5: by UK, but he never said he wasn't interested.

303
00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:35,239
Speaker 4: Yeah, and go watch.

304
00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,600
Speaker 2: His Go watch him talking about Kentucky and college basketball

305
00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 2: last night.

306
00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:41,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, if you haven't seen that video yet, go watch

307
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 3: Billy after the game talking. That ain't a guy who

308
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:46,520
Speaker 3: ain't gonna at least think about it. I'm not saying

309
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:48,560
Speaker 3: he'll do it, but you go watch that video. That's

310
00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 3: not a guy that won't think about it. And Danny

311
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:54,160
Speaker 3: Hurley Yeah, there's that report from Zagoria, who's a Yukon guy,

312
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:56,520
Speaker 3: that he won't do it. But Danny Hurley has not

313
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 3: said I won't take that job, said that he is not,

314
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 3: and he was on the MAC the show, and I

315
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:03,560
Speaker 3: actually think this didn't get a lot of attention, where

316
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:06,600
Speaker 3: he basically said, my agent has certainly told me not

317
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 3: to answer. I mean he said that, so you know,

318
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 3: we'll see read the te le's we'll see. I'm not

319
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:16,280
Speaker 3: saying he'll do it if you made me bet. I

320
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,400
Speaker 3: think one of you guys I saw said who's gonna

321
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:20,520
Speaker 3: be the next coach? My money would be on Scott Drew.

322
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,000
Speaker 3: But I think Hurley's gonna have to tell him no first,

323
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:26,280
Speaker 3: and we'll see if that happened. All right, I want

324
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:28,720
Speaker 3: to talk about the end of the Cow what happened

325
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,960
Speaker 3: on Monday, because I do think, just for closure, it

326
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:35,440
Speaker 3: is interesting how that played out, and there was some misinformation.

327
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 3: There's a lot of chatter. Let's talk about that when

328
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:48,160
Speaker 3: we returned. It's Kentucky Sports Radio, Parker back Tuckie Sports

329
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:53,000
Speaker 3: Radio eight five nine, twenty two eighty seven. One person rates, Matt,

330
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:57,480
Speaker 3: what are each of your three favorite cal Perry.

331
00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 2: Stories through you go first, like personal basket personal, Yeah, person.

332
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:04,840
Speaker 2: I really enjoyed when I wore a tuxedo to a

333
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 2: big blue Madness and I didn't really have a relationship

334
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:09,280
Speaker 2: with Caliperry, and he walked in right there in front

335
00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:10,720
Speaker 2: of all the cameras on the blue carpet and just

336
00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:13,240
Speaker 2: stopped and looked at me and said, why are you

337
00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 2: wearing a touxiedo? And I looked at him and I said,

338
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 2: why aren't you wearing a tuxedo? And that was our

339
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:19,960
Speaker 2: that was our interaction. Do little fun little quips like

340
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,120
Speaker 2: that along the way, with those open practices at the

341
00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:24,760
Speaker 2: NCAA tournament, almost every year he'd come over and say

342
00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 2: something to us, just when we had the better connection there.

343
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 2: And things are rolled and so many fun behind the

344
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 2: scenes stories.

345
00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 5: I'll go reverse order. Number three is when they won

346
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:35,720
Speaker 5: the national championship in twenty twelve and Elois Vargas and

347
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:37,480
Speaker 5: those guys messed up his hair and he's standing up

348
00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 5: here on the podium holding the trophy with just like

349
00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:43,160
Speaker 5: whacked out hair. Number two almost say the West Liberty

350
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:47,240
Speaker 5: Tornado fundraiser, when he flew in on a helicopter, flew

351
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:49,800
Speaker 5: around saw the damage came down, joined us on our

352
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:52,920
Speaker 5: show that rose God rest her soul helped put together.

353
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:55,160
Speaker 5: I knew then that this dude's hurt's in the right

354
00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:57,520
Speaker 5: place because that was early on Andie's tenure. But my

355
00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:01,360
Speaker 5: favorite cow memory will and always forever will be he

356
00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:03,720
Speaker 5: argued to the death that the home run I hit

357
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:07,639
Speaker 5: off you was fair, and it was fair. He was

358
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 5: my coach, he was argued on my behalf, it was fair.

359
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 2: With his what he's done for Kentucky, I want to

360
00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:14,679
Speaker 2: add because it was my part of the state. What

361
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:17,040
Speaker 2: he did for Dawson Springs then, especially especially with the

362
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:20,200
Speaker 2: Dawson Springs basketball team that is not a big high school,

363
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,000
Speaker 2: not a lot of basketball success there, and he kind

364
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:24,480
Speaker 2: of took them under his wing a little bit, brought

365
00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:26,720
Speaker 2: him up here for a practice. The coach was texting him,

366
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:29,119
Speaker 2: and there are so many stories like that we probably

367
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:30,879
Speaker 2: don't know and we'll never know. So I want to

368
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:32,440
Speaker 2: add what he did for Western Kentucky too.

369
00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:34,480
Speaker 3: Number three, when he went on his little book tour

370
00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:36,639
Speaker 3: and he ended up we ended up going to Middlesborough

371
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 3: and being able to go to Cal with cal to

372
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:43,240
Speaker 3: my hometown and have him there and sit with him

373
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,399
Speaker 3: and reduce him and stuff that was really neat Number

374
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:48,960
Speaker 3: two in the Bahamas. I guess now that they're gone

375
00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:53,520
Speaker 3: that we can say the famous stripper story.

376
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:55,639
Speaker 5: That's never been discussed on this show.

377
00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:58,760
Speaker 4: We can say it right, you can say it now.

378
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:02,480
Speaker 4: So there was.

379
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:07,119
Speaker 3: Why DoD you know what, it's a funny memory. So

380
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:08,920
Speaker 3: so there were two pools.

381
00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,240
Speaker 4: At the UH at the at the Atlantis.

382
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:14,160
Speaker 3: One was like the regular pool and one of them

383
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:17,120
Speaker 3: was like where it was like VIP, which is where

384
00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:20,120
Speaker 3: the team was staying and you had to be eighteen

385
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:22,600
Speaker 3: just to be in there. They go and they film

386
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:24,720
Speaker 3: a video. Remember that was when people were doing the

387
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:28,760
Speaker 3: Ice Bucket Challenge for als or something like that. So

388
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,520
Speaker 3: the team goes and films the UH is going to

389
00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:34,000
Speaker 3: film the ice Bucket Challenge out on the beach.

390
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:35,400
Speaker 4: Well, while they're.

391
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:37,959
Speaker 3: Gone, this dude at the pool just turns on this

392
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:41,199
Speaker 3: rap music and these women get in the center of

393
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:42,919
Speaker 3: the pool. There's a big pool and there's like a

394
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:47,240
Speaker 3: platform in the center, and they start going like insane,

395
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,560
Speaker 3: like to the point that even I'm like averting myse

396
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,720
Speaker 3: let's just look like it's it's wild. And then all

397
00:18:53,720 --> 00:19:00,159
Speaker 3: of a sudden the team walks back and this is happening, calipairrr.

398
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:03,840
Speaker 3: He ran away as fast as any human being had

399
00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:07,080
Speaker 3: ever run away. And the players on the team that

400
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:09,680
Speaker 3: was when you get a sense of like eighteen year olds.

401
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:12,959
Speaker 3: The players were just like they were like children, just

402
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,639
Speaker 3: looking there like, oh my goodness. And then all of

403
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:18,199
Speaker 3: a sudden, the assistant coaches are trying to scramble and

404
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:21,720
Speaker 3: get him out. Just watching all of that take place

405
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 3: with hilarious. But then Number one and he'll never admit

406
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 3: this right now, but I was on a plane with

407
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:29,160
Speaker 3: him once.

408
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:33,920
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, and I it's the only time in my life.

409
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:36,879
Speaker 3: I thought it was gonna crash, and like I was

410
00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:41,640
Speaker 3: probably being unreasonable, but I did. It was just me, him, Joe,

411
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:43,560
Speaker 3: and Kelly Kraft and We're flying home from the All

412
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:49,080
Speaker 3: Star Game and we took off and you know, maybe

413
00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:51,399
Speaker 3: that's normal, but like, I'm not in planes like that

414
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:55,280
Speaker 3: very often, and I got I was panicked. And then

415
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,800
Speaker 3: I looked at Kelly and she was a little panicked.

416
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:00,879
Speaker 3: And I looked at Cal and we'll never admit it,

417
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:03,840
Speaker 3: but I got really scared when I looked at him,

418
00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:06,480
Speaker 3: because he I knew he flew all the time and

419
00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:10,439
Speaker 3: he looked panicked. All of us were like, I remember thinking,

420
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:12,960
Speaker 3: if this plane goes down, I'm gonna be at the

421
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:16,840
Speaker 3: bottom of the store. And Matt Jones was also there like,

422
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,520
Speaker 3: I'm god gonna be the lead. I'm gonna be the

423
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:24,159
Speaker 3: bottom of the story. And then Joe was stoic and

424
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:24,960
Speaker 3: just kept.

425
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:28,200
Speaker 4: Saying we'll be fine. Didn't move, and.

426
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:30,720
Speaker 3: For some reason that actually calmed me down and we

427
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:33,200
Speaker 3: got through it. And later I would give him a

428
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:35,720
Speaker 3: hard time and be like, you sure did look scared,

429
00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:38,480
Speaker 3: and he got ah, no, well he looked scared. He

430
00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:40,639
Speaker 3: was as panicked as anybody on it. So that was

431
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:43,440
Speaker 3: that's probably be honestly, Ryan, the memory I remember the most.

432
00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:45,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, I forgot about that story. And remember I picked

433
00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 5: you up and I knew how you were white.

434
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:48,520
Speaker 4: You were white.

435
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:51,160
Speaker 3: We had to land in Knoxville. Yeah, we couldn't land

436
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:53,399
Speaker 3: in Lexington. We had to land in Knoxville. And then

437
00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:54,560
Speaker 3: you came and picked me up.

438
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,600
Speaker 5: Yeah all right, I got let me go ahead. Well,

439
00:20:57,640 --> 00:20:59,160
Speaker 5: I thought you'd say when you were on that bus

440
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:01,160
Speaker 5: with him, when they took the trophy around.

441
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:02,360
Speaker 4: That that was awesome.

442
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:04,680
Speaker 3: When we went all around to sight and uh yeah,

443
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:06,080
Speaker 3: that's a really good one too, all right, So I

444
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 3: want to talk about what happened on Monday. I think

445
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:15,600
Speaker 3: it is fair to say that cal I don't know

446
00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:17,720
Speaker 3: if I use the word cold feet, but he had

447
00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:21,879
Speaker 3: second thoughts. Okay, I think that's fair to say he

448
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:25,440
Speaker 3: had second thoughts. I think it's fair to say that

449
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:28,840
Speaker 3: they met. He met with some UK officials at his house.

450
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:32,159
Speaker 3: Dick Gabriel said that he asked for a counteroffer. He

451
00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:34,679
Speaker 3: has now walked that back and said that that didn't

452
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:38,359
Speaker 3: it wasn't a counteroffer. I wasn't there, so I can't say,

453
00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:41,159
Speaker 3: but if Dick walked it back, I'm assumed that's wasn't true.

454
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:44,600
Speaker 3: But I do think there was a meeting of is

455
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:49,200
Speaker 3: there a way to sort of bring this back together?

456
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:55,080
Speaker 3: And it sounds like the UK people said no, What

457
00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:55,679
Speaker 3: do you make of that?

458
00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:57,040
Speaker 4: Yeah?

459
00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:59,840
Speaker 5: I don't know who the UK people were, but they

460
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,240
Speaker 5: definitely went to his house on Monday and they had

461
00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:05,120
Speaker 5: some sort of discussion. Whether there was some renegotiations there.

462
00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 4: They said, no, are you good with that?

463
00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:10,520
Speaker 5: I think after what happens Sunday night on Monday afternoon,

464
00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:13,320
Speaker 5: it's broken. You can't fix it.

465
00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:14,679
Speaker 4: I agree, do you.

466
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:16,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, well I already thought it was broken. You certainly

467
00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:20,879
Speaker 2: can't do that. I'm married to Mitch, interview, rally the

468
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,560
Speaker 2: fan base, and then go have conversations that.

469
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:26,360
Speaker 4: You not just conversations. It's reported he's the coach. Yeah.

470
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:28,040
Speaker 2: Well, I'm saying, just in the beginning of this that

471
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:31,000
Speaker 2: alone before they're meeting at his house, like, you can't

472
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:32,560
Speaker 2: look at us and have that meeting with Mitch and

473
00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:34,080
Speaker 2: then go have conversations with anyone.

474
00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:34,719
Speaker 4: Yeah.

475
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,840
Speaker 3: So I think, you know, that might be part of

476
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:40,200
Speaker 3: why he looks sad yesterday, because I think he thought

477
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:43,359
Speaker 3: maybe he could salvage it and it just didn't happen.

478
00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:46,280
Speaker 3: And so now we go to the other era. All right,

479
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:51,600
Speaker 3: Hurley Donovan drew the timeframe. There's now a couple of

480
00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:55,400
Speaker 3: reports online that both Hurley Andrew have been asked, Hey,

481
00:22:55,400 --> 00:23:00,199
Speaker 3: we'd love to hear something by tomorrow, so have a

482
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:02,720
Speaker 3: coach tonight. Could have a coach tomorrow. If we don't

483
00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 3: have it tomorrow, it'll either be Billy Donnovan or some

484
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:08,600
Speaker 3: name we haven't even mentioned. We'll talk about actually what

485
00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:10,960
Speaker 3: a couple of those names could be right after this. KSI,

486
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:29,520
Speaker 3: all right, welcome back, Kentucky Sports Radio. Two quick things.

487
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:30,960
Speaker 3: First of all, you see this box right here.

488
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:34,000
Speaker 5: That's a huge box. Huge you could barely carry it

489
00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:34,480
Speaker 5: over here.

490
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,919
Speaker 4: This box is what would you say, uh, what by what?

491
00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:40,160
Speaker 5: Three by four?

492
00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:42,560
Speaker 2: Three by four, three feet by four feet?

493
00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:44,720
Speaker 3: Maybe I don't know. That may be made up, but

494
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:48,119
Speaker 3: it's a huge box. Guess what it is you've not

495
00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:49,960
Speaker 3: told I don't know. I haven't open it. But guess

496
00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:52,960
Speaker 3: where it's from. You're gonna think I'm making this up.

497
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:54,440
Speaker 3: Guess where this box is from.

498
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:56,959
Speaker 5: You boy, you're saying it must be from the University

499
00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:57,600
Speaker 5: of Arkansas.

500
00:23:57,720 --> 00:23:58,720

00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:01,399
Speaker 5: Is it from Tyson Foods?

503
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:03,800
Speaker 4: Tyson Foods has sent me a box of something.

504
00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:06,239
Speaker 2: Well, you gotta open it.

505
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:09,400
Speaker 3: You gotta open it right here, right like. Yeah, it's

506
00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:11,480
Speaker 3: just like a mafia move. We're gonna get a dead chick.

507
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:15,919
Speaker 3: It says it's perishable items. They'll sent you some chicken.

508
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:16,760
Speaker 3: I hope it's done on.

509
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 4: Let's see this, says Matt Ryan Billy. They leave Drew out.

510
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,160

00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:01,399
Speaker 2: You said on Monday you weren't gonna eat any food.

523
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:04,320

Speaker 2: Let's choose matting too funny.

534
00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:36,400
Speaker 3: So there you go, Tyson Foods as food. I don't

535
00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:39,400
Speaker 3: like this sending back. That's a good question. We got

536
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:41,760
Speaker 3: to figure out what we send back. So there you go.

537
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:42,600
Speaker 4: That just came.

538
00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 6: Uh.

539
00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:49,320
Speaker 3: Secondly, the wake up the Lexington the flight tracker season

540
00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:49,720
Speaker 3: is here.

541
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:50,399
Speaker 5: It is.

542
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 3: There is a flight that was tracked, and it's out

543
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:57,200
Speaker 3: there because again you can look this stuff up.

544
00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:01,240
Speaker 2: There's a flight that was tracked leaving Blue Girt Airport.

545
00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:05,600
Speaker 3: This morning, going to Waco landing and coming right back.

546
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:12,320
Speaker 2: It's pretty specific. I'll admit I completely ignore all this

547
00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:14,399
Speaker 2: flight stuff this time of the year because Keenland is

548
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:16,959
Speaker 2: full of private jets, New Jersey, even the Chicago. When

549
00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:20,320
Speaker 2: I rolled my eyes, Waco's pretty specific. Yep, I don't

550
00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:21,719
Speaker 2: know horse owners.

551
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:26,000
Speaker 3: And also when you go and immediately come back, Yeah,

552
00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:29,600
Speaker 3: like that's a that's a pretty specific thing. So you know,

553
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:32,680
Speaker 3: Shannon the Dude tweeted out this morning that Scott Drew

554
00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:33,440
Speaker 3: was fly.

555
00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:34,399
Speaker 4: Is that what he said?

556
00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:36,920
Speaker 5: He said there was a flight He just he didn't

557
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:39,000
Speaker 5: get real specific, but he said, yeah, the flight was

558
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:40,880
Speaker 5: coming from Lexington to wacoing back.

559
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:42,000
Speaker 4: I thought he was trolling.

560
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 3: No, But did Shannon the Dude from Vacation have have scoop.

561
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:49,760
Speaker 5: He's got a very reliable source out there that told

562
00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:52,359
Speaker 5: him this was going on. He even told him who's

563
00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:54,040
Speaker 5: allegedly going to be on the plane.

564
00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:55,760
Speaker 4: Well, let's we'll leave it at that.

565
00:26:55,960 --> 00:27:00,320
Speaker 3: Okay, but there is specifically a flight from Lexington away

566
00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:03,000
Speaker 3: go back. So if you were gonna, if you were

567
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:05,440
Speaker 3: doing the odds in Vegas, I think the Scott Drew

568
00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:07,119
Speaker 3: odds just went just went up.

569
00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 2: The only other plane would be chipping Joanna gains leaving.

570
00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:13,880
Speaker 3: All right, so let's do pros and cons. We did

571
00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 3: this yesterday, Let's do it again. Let's do pros and cons.

572
00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:20,720
Speaker 3: Danny Hurley, the pro is best coach in the country.

573
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:22,920
Speaker 3: Do you see any cons?

574
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:27,560
Speaker 5: I think his the only con. And this is not me,

575
00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:29,359
Speaker 5: but I think his only con would be some some

576
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:33,640
Speaker 5: fans may not like some of his antics.

577
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:34,680
Speaker 4: But do you think they care if you're winning?

578
00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:35,600
Speaker 5: Don't care at all?

579
00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:36,560
Speaker 4: Okay, what about you?

580
00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:38,600
Speaker 2: My con is I think he might actually be a

581
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:41,280
Speaker 2: crazy person. Uh, we might embrace that. I mean that

582
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:43,560
Speaker 2: would it shock you if he just bit the head

583
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:45,440
Speaker 2: off a cardinal before the louisver game had spit it out?

584
00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:46,639
Speaker 4: No, but we would love it.

585
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:48,359
Speaker 2: That's what I mean. I'm saying I might not be

586
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:50,720
Speaker 2: a bad thing. I'm just saying my man's unpredictable and

587
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:51,560
Speaker 2: that could be a con.

588
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:55,160
Speaker 3: Now, Yeah, I think I think he's one of those

589
00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:58,359
Speaker 3: dudes that would burn fast and hard, meaning like after

590
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:00,720
Speaker 3: seven or eight years, he'd have a lot of people that.

591
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:01,199
Speaker 4: Were like it.

592
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:03,919
Speaker 3: But like if we won, it doesn't matter, won't like

593
00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:05,920
Speaker 3: he's I don't know how many of you have ever

594
00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:09,639
Speaker 3: known anyone from New Jersey or Yukon that's of a

595
00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:13,080
Speaker 3: certain attitude. I'm not saying everybody, but like, that's what

596
00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:15,840
Speaker 3: that they're him. Yeah, I've been punched by one that's

597
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,760
Speaker 3: that they're him, Like they're in your face and you

598
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:20,880
Speaker 3: eat and like if you love them, you love them.

599
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:22,280
Speaker 4: And if you don't, you don't.

600
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:25,359
Speaker 3: But the thing is, if he's winning, will love him,

601
00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:28,560
Speaker 3: and he's gonna win. He won there, I mean, so

602
00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:29,760
Speaker 3: like why wouldn't he win here?

603
00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:31,840
Speaker 5: We would all embrace him, and all of our opponents

604
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:33,639
Speaker 5: with absolutely despise me.

605
00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:35,600
Speaker 3: Can you first of all, it doesn't seem like he

606
00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:39,240
Speaker 3: and Danny, he and Cal like each other anyway, so

607
00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:42,680
Speaker 3: cause you know they've had they've had Danny's made some

608
00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:45,840
Speaker 3: comments that made him seem like kind of shots at Cal.

609
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 2: Can you imagine if it was that game of those

610
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:51,960
Speaker 2: two guys in here and Danny doesn't he's not afraid

611
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:55,960
Speaker 2: to poke. He'll poke anyone, so that that rivalry would

612
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:57,479
Speaker 2: get very interesting in the SEC right.

613
00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:01,920
Speaker 3: Billy Donovan pro dude coach at every level. He's coached

614
00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:04,600
Speaker 3: and won every level, Like even in the pros with

615
00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:07,680
Speaker 3: not great rosters, he's done well. He killed it at

616
00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,640
Speaker 3: Florida at a school that doesn't even care. Only potential

617
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:12,720
Speaker 3: con for me is you don't know about recruiting because

618
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:14,760
Speaker 3: he hadn't done it in ten years and it's a

619
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:15,760
Speaker 3: different world now.

620
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:18,720
Speaker 2: But once he has the players, they're gonna be good.

621
00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:19,600
Speaker 4: What do you think?

622
00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:21,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that's it. The con is he's just

623
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:23,400
Speaker 5: been out of the college game. But yet, like you

624
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:26,520
Speaker 5: said earlier, you heard what he said about his fondness

625
00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:30,080
Speaker 5: for the college basketball world. So my con for him

626
00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:31,640
Speaker 5: is not very big in that. I think even though

627
00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:33,560
Speaker 5: he's been out of college basketball for several years, he

628
00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:35,560
Speaker 5: will pick it up quickly once he get returns.

629
00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:36,160
Speaker 4: Yeah.

630
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:38,800
Speaker 2: My con is just the game has changed so much

631
00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:41,200
Speaker 2: at the college level since he was at Florida that

632
00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:44,120
Speaker 2: maybe he, you know, isn't as good at nil as

633
00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:46,120
Speaker 2: some other guys would be. But that's a complete unknown

634
00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:47,480
Speaker 2: until he jumps in and does it, So I would

635
00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:49,360
Speaker 2: just say the mystery of not knowing how he'll handle

636
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:50,920
Speaker 2: the current landscape of the game.

637
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:51,680
Speaker 4: Scott Drew.

638
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:55,000
Speaker 3: I mean, I think he's probably now the favorite, but

639
00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:56,960
Speaker 3: I'm just gonna I'm gonna make the case for and

640
00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:57,880
Speaker 3: against Scott Drew.

641
00:29:57,920 --> 00:29:59,240
Speaker 4: The case for Scott Drew.

642
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:02,600
Speaker 3: Remember, Baylor was one of the three or four worst

643
00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 3: jobs in the country in Power five. We don't consider

644
00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:08,680
Speaker 3: it that now, but when he became coaching two thousand

645
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:10,480
Speaker 3: and five, they'd made one tournament ever.

646
00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:15,160
Speaker 4: Ever, It'd be like, take it. It was worse than Mandy.

647
00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:19,360
Speaker 3: It was a worse job than Mandy, and within eighteen

648
00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:22,959
Speaker 3: or within sixteen years they win a national championship. He

649
00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:27,960
Speaker 3: has made the tournament ten straight years. The COVID Tournament,

650
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,600
Speaker 3: they were probably the best team. We always talk about

651
00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 3: we could have won, but they probably would have won.

652
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:34,880
Speaker 3: And then the next year they were the number one

653
00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:37,040
Speaker 3: overall seed in the tournament. They just got upset by

654
00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:40,880
Speaker 3: Carolina in the second round. The con is he does

655
00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:42,920
Speaker 3: have a lot of first weekend losses, so if you

656
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:47,080
Speaker 3: want to focus on that, you can, But my argument

657
00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:50,320
Speaker 3: is it's Baylor. He recruits top five to top ten

658
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:55,480
Speaker 3: classes at Baylor. Imagine what he'll do here. Right, he's

659
00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:58,680
Speaker 3: a little boring, But there are people who would say,

660
00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:00,960
Speaker 3: after the last few years, we need a little boring

661
00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:05,280
Speaker 3: in terms of in terms of you know, press conferences, etcenta.

662
00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:05,840
Speaker 4: What about you?

663
00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:08,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, hell of a coach. And you can remember that

664
00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:11,400
Speaker 5: that this edgecomb kid his final choices with Baylor in UK.

665
00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:12,719
Speaker 5: He picked Baylor.

666
00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:15,440
Speaker 3: Oh the way, there's a really good chance if he came,

667
00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:17,480
Speaker 3: the best player in the country's coming with it.

668
00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:20,200
Speaker 4: Yes, right, PJ. Edge. In my opinion, if he's not

669
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:20,800
Speaker 4: the best.

670
00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:23,680
Speaker 3: Player, he's top three, he would be coming to He

671
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:26,840
Speaker 3: has three five star commitments next year. So while we're

672
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:29,760
Speaker 3: gonna lose all these guys we had, you bring Scott Drew,

673
00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:31,400
Speaker 3: you get a different set of really good.

674
00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:33,680
Speaker 5: Guy, hell of a coach, hell of a recruiter. Like

675
00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:35,520
Speaker 5: you said, he there's not a lot of swagger there.

676
00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:37,480
Speaker 5: He's kind of vanilla a little bit.

677
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:38,600
Speaker 4: But there's no swat.

678
00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:41,280
Speaker 5: I was trying to give you a little bitfit of

679
00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 5: the down.

680
00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:45,080
Speaker 3: No, I mean, like I'm just being real, Like he's

681
00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:46,600
Speaker 3: there's no swag.

682
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:49,840
Speaker 2: We're going to Drake's. It's for happy hour because it's

683
00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:53,200
Speaker 2: Drake if he's going to Drakes, it's for Sunday morning

684
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:53,800
Speaker 2: prayer group.

685
00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:56,400
Speaker 3: Okay, Like like he's not he's not gonna be partying.

686
00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:58,160
Speaker 3: I think that's a fair dest. That might be a

687
00:31:58,200 --> 00:31:59,920
Speaker 3: good thing. I don't disagree.

688
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:02,239
Speaker 2: I don't have any of the basketball concerns that some

689
00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 2: people have with Scott Drew because I just think it's

690
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:06,400
Speaker 2: amazing he did what he did at Baylor. As you said,

691
00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:08,720
Speaker 2: get these players to go to Waco, Texas where there

692
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:11,760
Speaker 2: was no tradition or history or really any basketball before him,

693
00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:14,480
Speaker 2: think of just scandals before him. So if you give

694
00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:19,719
Speaker 2: him Lexington, Kentucky and all the resources he'll have, especially,

695
00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:21,600
Speaker 2: I think there will be a lot of nil support

696
00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:24,720
Speaker 2: whoever it is that. I think he'd be a good higher.

697
00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:26,480
Speaker 2: My concern is, like you all said, just he's not

698
00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:28,440
Speaker 2: gonna light the fan base on fire, come in here,

699
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:30,920
Speaker 2: rip his shirt off, and you know, really be out

700
00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:31,640
Speaker 2: in front of everyone.

701
00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:34,600
Speaker 3: Yeah all right, So those are tier one. So then

702
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:37,080
Speaker 3: if that doesn't happen, you go to tier two. I've

703
00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:41,240
Speaker 3: been told there's sort of kind of floating tier two

704
00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:45,640
Speaker 3: people right now, and talking to folks, I assume there

705
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:48,680
Speaker 3: will be names added to this. These are the only

706
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:52,680
Speaker 3: three names that I know have been considered as Tier

707
00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:56,360
Speaker 3: two Chris Beard, Shaka Smart, Sean Miller.

708
00:32:57,240 --> 00:32:58,719
Speaker 4: I'm sure there are other people.

709
00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:01,320
Speaker 3: Those are the only three I know, so I don't

710
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:03,240
Speaker 3: want to add names that have that. I do not

711
00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:07,000
Speaker 3: know if it's what about those three? I think that's

712
00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:09,440
Speaker 3: a step down from the first two. But if I

713
00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:11,840
Speaker 3: told you the coach had to be one of those

714
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:13,800
Speaker 3: three people, who would you want?

715
00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:18,880
Speaker 5: Good question? Like we said earlier this week, Shaka Smart

716
00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:21,080
Speaker 5: was on Mitch Marnhart's list a couple of years ago,

717
00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:23,240
Speaker 5: so I think that he's got that relationship, and I

718
00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:26,560
Speaker 5: think Mitch likes Shaka Smart, who had kind of failed

719
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:29,200
Speaker 5: at Texas but then came into market and has done really,

720
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:34,920
Speaker 5: really well. Chris Beard, I think he's which one. I

721
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:36,720
Speaker 5: like Chris Beard, although he's got the kind of the

722
00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:39,160
Speaker 5: baggage that he that I don't know if Mitch would

723
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:40,320
Speaker 5: hire him. But if I had to pick one of

724
00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:42,720
Speaker 5: those three, I'd probably pick Chris Beard.

725
00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:46,640
Speaker 2: That's some big baggage, but I'd still consider Beard over

726
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:50,240
Speaker 2: the other. Shaka Smart's NCAA tournament resumes really bad since

727
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:53,040
Speaker 2: that VCU run. This year. They made the Sweet sixteen,

728
00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:54,400
Speaker 2: but I think it might be the only time he's

729
00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:57,480
Speaker 2: made it since VCU. So even though they've had some

730
00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:00,320
Speaker 2: great regular seasons at Marquette, got a good offense, he

731
00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:03,080
Speaker 2: doesn't have a great tournament record. But you could say

732
00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:07,880
Speaker 2: a lot of people that's something you gotta take. Take.

733
00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:09,879
Speaker 4: Who would you say Beard, lean Beard? Yeah?

734
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,880
Speaker 3: I would lean Beard slightly. I don't think Shaka is

735
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:14,560
Speaker 3: as big as I don't want Shawn Miller.

736
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:15,080
Speaker 4: No offense.

737
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:17,360
Speaker 3: I just don't think that that's not the one I

738
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:22,120
Speaker 3: would want. Do you think if they got to that level,

739
00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:23,360
Speaker 3: they should call Bruce Pearl?

740
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:24,520
Speaker 2: I'm team Bruce.

741
00:34:24,680 --> 00:34:26,600
Speaker 5: I am team Drew, and I have been team Bruce

742
00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:29,359
Speaker 5: for a long time. I think he deserves the phone call,

743
00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:31,560
Speaker 5: and I he he could do all the other stuff.

744
00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:33,080
Speaker 5: He's got the swagger.

745
00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:33,600
Speaker 4: But he lost to Yale.

746
00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:38,839
Speaker 5: Yeah, but he's had great success. He's rebuilt Auburn into

747
00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:39,840
Speaker 5: a power down there.

748
00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:43,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's not I say team Bruce. He's not probably

749
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:45,840
Speaker 2: not in my top five, but I would not be

750
00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:47,680
Speaker 2: upset if it had to get to that point.

751
00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:48,200
Speaker 4: I hope it.

752
00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:50,200
Speaker 2: I hope you get Yes, it's from someone ahead of him,

753
00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:52,480
Speaker 2: but I would accept Bruce and be happy about it.

754
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:55,520
Speaker 3: If I think there's also a chance that if you

755
00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:59,080
Speaker 3: got past these first three, one or two NBA names

756
00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:02,040
Speaker 3: could come back into the picture. And I hesitate to

757
00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:05,520
Speaker 3: say them because I don't want to ruin it. But

758
00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:08,359
Speaker 3: if you got past those three, and that means it's

759
00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:11,120
Speaker 3: gonna take a little bit of time, some NBA people

760
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:13,840
Speaker 3: I think come back into play, uh at that place

761
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:16,640
Speaker 3: at that point as well. Hey, stop overpaying for sunglasses.

Speaker 3: That'll show them they're gonna try to bribe me with food.

779
00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:10,799
Speaker 4: Well, yes, you can have it. A couple things.

780
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:12,920
Speaker 3: First of all, today's the last day here at Kaspar

781
00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:15,600
Speaker 3: to have a chance to win the Masters prize from

782
00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:19,520
Speaker 3: Country Boy Brewing. Before you leave, put your winner into

783
00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:21,879
Speaker 3: this into the pot there and if you if you're,

784
00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:25,120
Speaker 3: if your guy wins, you'll split two thousand dollars from

785
00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:27,359
Speaker 3: Country Boy. We've had some people put down a lot,

786
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:29,040
Speaker 3: but there are a lot of players haven't been put

787
00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:32,040
Speaker 3: down yet. So if you're if you put one of them,

788
00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:33,920
Speaker 3: you could win. You got to the end of the

789
00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:36,840
Speaker 3: day to day. Remember five dollars Country Boy all week

790
00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:40,360
Speaker 3: through the Masters. That's like cheaper than you can get

791
00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:43,160
Speaker 3: even at their place. And we got the pimento cheese

792
00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:46,200
Speaker 3: and egg salad sandwiches which I ate won yesterday the

793
00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:48,239
Speaker 3: egg salad and it's awesome. I think some people are

794
00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:50,319
Speaker 3: gonna try that here today too. So we have the

795
00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:52,919
Speaker 3: Master's recipes here at the bar.

796
00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:53,920
Speaker 4: Uh.

797
00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:56,160
Speaker 3: We got folks on the phone eight, five, nine, two, eight,

798
00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:59,759
Speaker 3: twenty two eighty seven one person rights Matt I to

799
00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:02,600
Speaker 3: end today for Frank Franklin, does he have anything he

800
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:04,960
Speaker 3: wants to get off his chest now that the Caliperry

801
00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:05,560
Speaker 3: era is over?

802
00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:07,200
Speaker 2: Yes, saw a lot of people want me to go

803
00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:09,640
Speaker 2: scorch through today. I mean, we'll trickle out some stories

804
00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:11,600
Speaker 2: over time, but I don't know if today's the day

805
00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:14,200
Speaker 2: to just tap on or dance on everything that's happening

806
00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:16,440
Speaker 2: over there. I'm generally sad that it's ending, so I

807
00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:18,840
Speaker 2: don't I think people want me to play a character.

808
00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:20,799
Speaker 2: I'm just not really ready to play today because that's

809
00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:22,960
Speaker 2: not my emotions. But well, stuff will come out over

810
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:23,520
Speaker 2: over time.

811
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:26,640
Speaker 3: There'll be two things that will happen over the next

812
00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:30,080
Speaker 3: couple of weeks. There will be the Kyle Tucker article

813
00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:33,919
Speaker 3: like one's coming where he talks about what all fell

814
00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:36,399
Speaker 3: apart in the last two years, and it's I'm sure

815
00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:40,440
Speaker 3: it's gonna come, and I think it's gonna be needed

816
00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:43,920
Speaker 3: for kind of closure. I also think there are some

817
00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:47,320
Speaker 3: things I personally am gonna talk about that we're wrong

818
00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:51,359
Speaker 3: that happened. But I actually don't think today is that

819
00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:54,080
Speaker 3: day because I don't think we need to be like

820
00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:56,359
Speaker 3: like I prefer.

821
00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:59,080
Speaker 2: That sort of Hey, it's a sad time.

822
00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:03,000
Speaker 3: Let's remember the for now and then I think eventually, though,

823
00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:04,680
Speaker 3: we do have to discuss where.

824
00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:06,799
Speaker 4: Things went wrong, because they did. They did go wrong.

825
00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:09,880
Speaker 2: People have accused, not many, you know, the Twitter accounts

826
00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:12,080
Speaker 2: that don't listen and accused of things. They're acting like,

827
00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 2: we're joyous about this, And if we sit here and

828
00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:16,239
Speaker 2: just started saying all the bad things from behind the

829
00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:18,160
Speaker 2: scenes right now, it would kind of look like a celebration.

830
00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:20,799
Speaker 2: And it is no way a celebration. In my brain,

831
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:22,480
Speaker 2: I thought it was time for the breakup because it

832
00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:25,279
Speaker 2: things had been bad. But it's not something you know,

833
00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:27,839
Speaker 2: I'm rooting for happy that happens, So I'm not gonna

834
00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:30,239
Speaker 2: sit here and just air out dirty laundry to do it. Yeah,

835
00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:31,240
Speaker 2: I hear it happened.

836
00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:33,399
Speaker 3: We'll talk about it at some point, but I don't

837
00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:35,560
Speaker 3: really think today is the day. That today is for

838
00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:37,160
Speaker 3: what's next? And who's up first?

839
00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:40,440
Speaker 4: Got the H man of first? H man? How are you?

840
00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:44,680
Speaker 4: I'm doing great, gentlemen. Uh?

841
00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:49,000
Speaker 5: My list is two and that is uh Scott Drew

842
00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:53,680
Speaker 5: and Bruce Pearl and I don't see Danny Hurley coming

843
00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:54,480
Speaker 5: here for things.

844
00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:56,879
Speaker 4: I don't want to mention over the air.

845
00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:02,319
Speaker 3: Okay, all right, so you want so you want Bruce Pearl?

846
00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:04,680
Speaker 3: What's interesting about Bruce Pearl? And I appreciate the cause

847
00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:06,600
Speaker 3: when you say Bruce Pearl's name, I was looking at

848
00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:09,319
Speaker 3: this restaurant. I saw like three or four people shake

849
00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:11,960
Speaker 3: their head yes. And I saw three or four people

850
00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:14,719
Speaker 3: shake their head and no. Whereas like Scott Drew may

851
00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:18,440
Speaker 3: not make everybody excited. I don't think anybody is furious

852
00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:20,800
Speaker 3: if it's him. There'll be some people if it was

853
00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:23,759
Speaker 3: Bruce Pearl, that would be like so like it'll be

854
00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:25,880
Speaker 3: it'd be interesting to see if that's who it was,

855
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:27,480
Speaker 3: how you unify that group.

856
00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:29,600
Speaker 5: And I gotta ask you this because it seems to

857
00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:33,560
Speaker 5: be growing in popularity bringing Rick Patino back.

858
00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:37,040
Speaker 3: It's not growing to me. I mean, he's leave everything

859
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:40,360
Speaker 3: else aside. He's seventy some years old, and I know

860
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:42,520
Speaker 3: we're about to elect a president. That we have a

861
00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:44,920
Speaker 3: president at seventy some years old, we're probably gonna lect

862
00:39:44,960 --> 00:39:48,560
Speaker 3: another one that's seventy some years old either way. But

863
00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:51,799
Speaker 3: I just think in college basketball, what you're gonna get Rick, he's.

864
00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:54,359
Speaker 4: Gonna be here? What two three years? I mean not like, No,

865
00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:56,120
Speaker 4: I just don't think that's what you would do.

866
00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:58,560
Speaker 5: That's so I know that's seemed to be growing where

867
00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:00,640
Speaker 5: people like I'll take a good two three year run

868
00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:01,240
Speaker 5: with Patinos.

869
00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:02,840
Speaker 3: Now, if we get turned down by all three of

870
00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:08,080
Speaker 3: those guys, I mean, it's at least worth worth considering.

871
00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:11,440
Speaker 3: But I don't think I will be very surprised if

872
00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:13,200
Speaker 3: one of those three dudes is not the coach here.

873
00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:14,640
Speaker 4: That's that's where I am right now.

874
00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:16,759
Speaker 3: Maybe I'm wrong, but I will be surprised, and I

875
00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:20,120
Speaker 3: think it will be seen amongst UK had a list

876
00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:25,399
Speaker 3: of about seven people that they considered A plus candidates.

877
00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:28,480
Speaker 4: Most of them did.

878
00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:30,719
Speaker 3: I think three of them just didn't want to be

879
00:40:30,840 --> 00:40:34,480
Speaker 3: either here or in college basketball. One of them is

880
00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:36,800
Speaker 3: kind of in that NBA thing where I think people

881
00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:39,000
Speaker 3: are waiting to see what happens, and then you got

882
00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:42,719
Speaker 3: the three that we all know. So I think I

883
00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:44,240
Speaker 3: think Kentucky wants one of those.

884
00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:47,560
Speaker 4: People, and I think that's the goal. Who's next? Jackson?

885
00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:48,880
Speaker 4: Is up next? Jackson?

886
00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:53,480
Speaker 6: Go ahead, Hey, Matt, I think I have an interesting

887
00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:58,040
Speaker 6: perspective on this whole cow thing. Because most young fans

888
00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:02,440
Speaker 6: like eighteen nineteen. They all want Kyle to say. But

889
00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:07,680
Speaker 6: me personally, I've never witnessed any of Cal's good seasons.

890
00:41:08,080 --> 00:41:14,560
Speaker 6: I started really watching Kentucky basketball around twenty nineteen, the

891
00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:15,279
Speaker 6: COVID year.

892
00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:19,160
Speaker 3: So you're so young you don't remember when Kentucky was

893
00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:22,719
Speaker 3: really good with Cal. So like you're ready for something

894
00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:25,120
Speaker 3: else because you haven't even gotten to experience a really

895
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:27,080
Speaker 3: good year yet. Mm hmm.

896
00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:27,720
Speaker 2: Interesting.

897
00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:31,200
Speaker 6: I'm excited for the next coach and she if he

898
00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:33,960
Speaker 6: can get something done, but I really hope it's Danny Hurley.

899
00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:36,560
Speaker 2: Well, I appreciate the call. I think.

900
00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:38,720
Speaker 4: So yeah.

901
00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:41,680
Speaker 3: I think the best way to say it officially, because

902
00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:44,880
Speaker 3: I'm being asked people are saying that, Like there Officially,

903
00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:49,040
Speaker 3: I don't think Scott Drew or Danny Hurley have been

904
00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:53,040
Speaker 3: given the job offered it, but I think they both

905
00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:55,680
Speaker 3: know if one of them were to say yes today,

906
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:57,760
Speaker 3: it'd probably be theirs.

907
00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:04,720
Speaker 4: So everybody's on the clock and we'll see what happened.

908
00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:06,759
Speaker 3: And by the way, I think Donovan would be in

909
00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:09,840
Speaker 3: the exact same position if he didn't have that playoff

910
00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:10,640
Speaker 3: game this week.

911
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:12,400
Speaker 4: I think that playoff.

912
00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:14,680
Speaker 3: Game next week has made it to where Because you

913
00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:18,160
Speaker 3: gotta remember, we've been burned by Billy before. Billy told

914
00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:20,160
Speaker 3: Mitch once before he was gonna take the job and

915
00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:23,239
Speaker 3: then back down. And so I think Mitch still likes him,

916
00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:25,359
Speaker 3: but there's a sense of I can't wait on you,

917
00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:28,560
Speaker 3: and then you do that to me again, right, So

918
00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:30,400
Speaker 3: like that's why I think if they have one of

919
00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:33,040
Speaker 3: these other A options ready to go, they do it.

920
00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:33,879
Speaker 4: Does that make sense?

921
00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:34,760
Speaker 5: Makes total sense.

922
00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:36,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll take a break, we'll come back. Our number

923
00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:39,320
Speaker 3: two KSPAR is gonna open right now. This is Kentucky

924
00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:40,040
Speaker 3: Sports Radio.
