Everyone 29 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 4: just cleared out and went to the field. I can't 30 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 4: see this guy, but I assume the sun's out. Maybe 31 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 4: they got good weather doing the team photo out there. 32 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,080 Speaker 4: And then all the media. This is where they conduct 33 00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 4: their interviews with players and coaches. This is when I 34 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,959 Speaker 4: thought we would have players and coaches, but they all 35 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:41,200 Speaker 4: crashed the set in the first hour. So that was fun, 36 00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 4: but it's thrown us off a little bit. 37 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,280 Speaker 5: Yep, just throw the script out the window today. Like 38 00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:48,120 Speaker 5: you said, there's not a single person in here besides us. Now, 39 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 5: well there's one guy over there on the phone. But 40 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 5: it's been fun. And the way Vince ran out of here, 41 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 5: maybe we did get. 42 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 2: Him in a little bit of trouble. 43 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 4: Mario. 44 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 6: Yeah, I keep turning around my shoulder.

Last time I turned around my shoulder, Mark 47 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 6: Stoops popped up. 48 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 4: So with an empty in here to one of us 49 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 4: need to go like hit a slid or attacking dummy. 50 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 4: This is your moment. You could be a UK football 51 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 4: player for two minutes if you wanted, until we get 52 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:14,760 Speaker 4: caught and get in trouble. 53 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 2: That's true. 54 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:16,800 Speaker 5: Can I do it like a recruiting visit where they 55 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:18,919 Speaker 5: put the helmet and the shoulder pads on. 56 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 4: Get the gloves and receiver gloves. 57 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 5: I like how like the parents do that as well, 58 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:26,160 Speaker 5: Like you get a dad that likes to be really involved, 59 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:27,360 Speaker 5: they'll just suit him up as well. 60 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 4: Listen, we're about to have the Ryan Lemon photo shoots. 61 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 4: This is the year. It's gonna start. Josiah's friend Douglas. 62 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:35,960 Speaker 4: He had an injury last year. I saw just saw 63 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 4: to make a good catch in a little highlight video. 64 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 4: So you get ready. We're about to have Ryan Lemon 65 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 4: wearing the jerseys and the gloves or wherever Josiah's interested 66 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 4: in visiting. 67 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,520 Speaker 5: And you know back you know, maybe a year or two. 68 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 5: Ryan kind of teased that he may leave KSR if 69 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 5: he decided where to go to a place out of 70 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,119 Speaker 5: state or something like that. So you know, this may 71 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 5: be a contract year for Ryan Levon. 72 00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 4: Could I hope not, But we're keeping a close eye on. 73 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:02,920 Speaker 4: I wanted to start the show with our favorite memories 74 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:04,920 Speaker 4: for the summer, and then we just had people lined 75 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 4: up to talk to us. I want to get back 76 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 4: to that, Shannon, do you have anything that you want 77 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 4: to lead off with, maybe a favorite guest host or 78 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 4: an in particular moment, or a caller or anything in 79 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 4: this ten weeks without Matt Jones as we kind of 80 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:20,840 Speaker 4: closed the book on that long summer without him. 81 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 2: Well, we'll say, you guys weren't here. 82 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 3: But just last week when we had Jhon Fanta host 83 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:28,519 Speaker 3: the show with us, we had some of the best 84 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 3: callers during that segment after we had Russ Smith on 85 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:34,640 Speaker 3: with us, I think of the entire summer. So if 86 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 3: you didn't hear that, I would definitely go back and 87 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 3: check that out. The one guy that called in and 88 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 3: said that Russ Smith's bourbon taste it like Ohio water 89 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 3: or Ohio river water was a great burn on him. 90 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 3: But if we're going like best moments of the entire summer, 91 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 3: I don't think you can top Rick Patino on Kentucky 92 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 3: Sports Radio words that I thought I would never say, 93 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 3: and the part of my take, guys made it happen. 94 00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 4: I still can't believe that happened, and I'm interested to 95 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 4: hear Matt's thoughts on Monday, what Matt has to say 96 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 4: about it, because he, you know, obviously has been gone, 97 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 4: has been checking in with this. I'm sure he was 98 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 4: in disbelief that day. Whatever part of the world he 99 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 4: was on, probably a little later at night for him. 100 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 4: But seeing that Rick Patino was a guest. 101 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 5: Well, they kept the surprise close to the vest. I mean, 102 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 5: I like to think Shannon the dude and I are 103 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 5: pretty close friends. Shannon wouldn't tell me who the guest 104 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 5: was for part of my take, so I definite. 105 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 2: To spoil secrets, so I couldn't tell you that's true. 106 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 5: If it was a Netflix involved, I might might really 107 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 5: spoil it. 108 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 4: Shannon's right about the John Fanca Rob Doser show Field 109 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 4: of sixty eight. I wasn't on. We got to take 110 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 4: that day off, but I stayed home and listened, and 111 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 4: they were doing a good job for the first hour 112 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,800 Speaker 4: and a half, doing fine. Nothing really excellent. It was 113 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 4: just a good show. But then with thirty minutes left, 114 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 4: it got real good. I mean, it just took off 115 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 4: with callers. I even tweeted that it was like the 116 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 4: KSR caller All Star Game, because one after another, we're 117 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 4: so good. Some people we've never heard from, some we've 118 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 4: heard from before. They were mostly dissing on Louisville. It 119 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,119 Speaker 4: kind of felt like John cal Perry and Russ Smith 120 00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,480 Speaker 4: were getting jumped a little bit by KSR callers because 121 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 4: they were either talking trash about Russ Smith and the 122 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 4: build up to Monday's TVT game or getting jokes in 123 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 4: on Arkansas. But that one really stood out for me. 124 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 4: Were you able to hear that one? 125 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:09,280 Speaker 5: Or no, I didn't hear it. I gotta go back 126 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 5: and listen now. But those guys they did it last year, 127 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 5: they did it again this year. We've had some good 128 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 5: guest hosts this year, not to just mention Myron and 129 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:20,239 Speaker 5: Tom and the consistent ones that they did. But Alyssa 130 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 5: Lang I thought was great. She opened up and they 131 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 5: were a lot of great guest hosts. 132 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:25,839 Speaker 4: She maybe got some of the best feedback of anyone 133 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 4: we've gotten all summer. I mean pardon my take. We 134 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,359 Speaker 4: always hear of people like that and how some people 135 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 4: don't like that. There were a lot of reoccurring guests, 136 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,920 Speaker 4: but Alyssa Lang making her debut. A lot of people 137 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 4: really enjoyed that. She had lots of good things coming 138 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 4: back from SEC media days. I couldnt even believe she 139 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:41,600 Speaker 4: agreed to do it. Haven't been in Dallas all week. 140 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 4: Wakes up and does the show with us. But it 141 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 4: was fun hearing her talk about UK football sources SAT podcast. 142 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:50,279 Speaker 4: That was cool. That was so Yeah. They always do 143 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 4: a great job. Check them out on the KSR YouTube. 144 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:54,279 Speaker 4: You don't even have to call out source. Everybody just 145 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:56,480 Speaker 4: knows they're getting done speaking up. I guess we should 146 00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 4: mention a few news tidbits. They're not UK football related, 147 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 4: but since you up sources say UK basketball recruiting Jasper 148 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 4: Johnson took an unofficial visit to Kentucky. It sounded like 149 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:09,480 Speaker 4: he's staring down a late August decision, so later this 150 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 4: month he'll make it known if it's gonna be North Carolina, 151 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 4: Alabama or Kentucky. But he was on campus yesterday and 152 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 4: Mark Pope furthered his pitch to get into Lexington. We 153 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 4: don't know how that went just yet, but uh, that's 154 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 4: the big news in the UK basketball recruiting world. 155 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 6: Mario, what do you guys think about Jasper Johnson coming here? 156 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,719 Speaker 6: Do we have a legit shot Billy Drew? What's to 157 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 6: looking like? 158 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 4: It sounds like money's not gonna be the deciding factor, 159 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,159 Speaker 4: but he's not gonna take a big discount to go 160 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,480 Speaker 4: anyone either, So I think I think North Carolina and 161 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 4: Alabama have really been aggress throwing the nil money around, 162 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 4: And as long as UK can at least get in 163 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,120 Speaker 4: the ballpark, you know, the attraction to coming home can 164 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,360 Speaker 4: make up for a little bit of that big You're 165 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 4: not gonna get him on sale, I know that much, 166 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 4: even though that's not his top priority. You need to 167 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:52,799 Speaker 4: be in the ballpark. 168 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:53,160 Speaker 2: Oh I did. 169 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 5: Kentucky's definitely in the conversation. But this would be I 170 00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 5: think a huge get for Pope early in his tenure. 171 00:06:58,000 --> 00:06:58,160 Speaker 4: Yeah. 172 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 5: I mean, we've already seen him instruct the roster with 173 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:04,039 Speaker 5: transfers and older guys, but we know how cal dominated 174 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,359 Speaker 5: the freshman and got these guys out of high school, 175 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 5: and I think this would go a long way of 176 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 5: showing that this talent can stay in the state and 177 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 5: go to Kentucky. 178 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 4: Yep, hoping that's the case. Malachai Marino also out there. 179 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 4: Love to have both of those guys. I'd be great 180 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 4: just keeping that Kentucky connection. And then of course, you 181 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 4: know people have some concerns about Pope can get those 182 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 4: top tier guys. That's that's two in your backyard. He 183 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 4: needs to go out and get We'd love to see 184 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 4: that channel. Let's go get some calls. I know I've 185 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 4: got some full LUNs. 186 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 1: Let's go to Neil. 187 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 4: Neil, thanks for calling KSR. What's up? 188 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 7: Hey, Drew? 189 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 8: First time, long time? So my question is with how 190 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 8: hard it has been to retain talent in this era 191 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,480 Speaker 8: of college football. What are the odds that Cutter Bowley 192 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 8: ever actually suits it up for UK. And if he does, 193 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 8: if you think he's going to stay and suit it 194 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 8: up for UK. 195 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 4: What does that happen? 196 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 8: Is that next year is a two years down the line, 197 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 8: and I'll hang up and listen. 198 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:59,280 Speaker 4: That is a great question. You're right. In this world 199 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 4: of college basketball football, you never know what anyone will do. 200 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 4: He's looked good at just a true freshman that enrolled 201 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 4: early in the spring. Obviously, Brock, vandergriff and Allen bo Allen, 202 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 4: Gavin Windsor. It's loaded now. I think with him being local, 203 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 4: the local nil money will really help a lot of 204 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 4: the boosters will want to see a Kentucky guy stay 205 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 4: and see it through. So if he gets to a 206 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 4: point where another school's trying to pick him off and 207 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 4: pull him away from UK, I think him going to 208 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 4: high school down the road here might help some of 209 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,680 Speaker 4: the local donors step up and make sure that didn't happen, 210 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:34,960 Speaker 4: because I know people are very excited to see him, 211 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 4: even if this year might not be getting a lot 212 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:37,960 Speaker 4: of them right away. 213 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:40,839 Speaker 5: Bush Handhm had some interesting comments just a couple of 214 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 5: weeks ago, saying he was the most talented freshman that 215 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:46,320 Speaker 5: he's worked with, maybe ever. So I mean, we'd love 216 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:48,080 Speaker 5: I think in a perfect world you'd love for a 217 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 5: guy to stay one or two years and learn the 218 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:53,079 Speaker 5: system and get ready. But like the college said, that 219 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 5: is just not college football right now. And if this 220 00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 5: guy is that talented, you gotta think they'll be suitors. 221 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:01,839 Speaker 5: But weren't we at his announcement. I mean, it's different 222 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:03,840 Speaker 5: when you stay in state and there's some love from 223 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 5: the people around you hopefully that will be the case 224 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 5: and maybe one or two years down the road he 225 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:09,840 Speaker 5: can finally get that starting spot. 226 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, and a question about when, you know, Brock's got 227 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 4: a couple of years if he wants him, So it 228 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 4: kind of depends on what he does. I mean, it'd 229 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 4: be awesome for Kentucky to win ten games and we 230 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 4: wave him off to the NFL. But you know, I'm 231 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 4: not putting that pressure on him or saying I'm expecting that. 232 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 4: But it could be a two year thing with with 233 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 4: Brock vander Griffs. So that's something Bowdly have to do 234 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 4: with who knows, maybe still the job. I noticed when 235 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 4: I mentioned Brock, Vandergriff and Gavin Wims, did Josh see 236 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:35,720 Speaker 4: how quickly Stoops was to add Cutter Bowley to the discussion? Yeah, jumped. 237 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:37,679 Speaker 4: I think that was a little telling of what they 238 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:38,199 Speaker 4: think of him. 239 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 6: He likes the depth you talk about Brock, Vandergriff, bow Allen, 240 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,839 Speaker 6: and then you know Cutter Bowley. He likes to have 241 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 6: a deep quarterbacks quarterback spot, you know. 242 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 4: And and I think I think it's gonna work out 243 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 4: for col all. 244 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 5: Leak because yeah, that's because we had to live through 245 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 5: Lynn Bowden having to be thrust it into that role 246 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 5: and and what a great job at he granted shaping 247 00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:58,640 Speaker 5: that offense and then still being able to make a 248 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:00,440 Speaker 5: Bowl game. But you don't want to be in that 249 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 5: situation where you're having to put a talent or receiver 250 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 5: back there. So I think he'll always have I'm sure 251 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 5: a little bit more depth than he always did. 252 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 2: Can I can I bring up one more moment from 253 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 2: the summer. 254 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 4: You can go over there and just help yourself to 255 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:14,200 Speaker 4: the gate raad if you want. I don't care. 256 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 2: I don't know. 257 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 5: I don't know if they'd like that. I'm already Uh, 258 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 5: I've already got an extra eye on. 259 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 2: Me right now. 260 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 5: The pop up shows have been fun, whether it be 261 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 5: us eating beer cheese somewhere or you know, going to 262 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 5: a place like Whiskey Thief, or you know, just showing 263 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 5: up and then still people showing up to see us. 264 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 5: But watching Mario and his video content what he brings 265 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:33,320 Speaker 5: to the show has been incredible. 266 00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 4: I wanted to give you some flowers. 267 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 5: You have been great and like the ideas about eating 268 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 5: chicken wings or the stuff that you've done with Drew 269 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 5: and Ryan.

And then 501 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:09,440 Speaker 4: we opened the chicken and we were just like squirrels, 502 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 4: just completely lost we shouldn't say lost interest, but we 503 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 4: were very distracted. I actually kind of felt bad for Tom. 504 00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 4: I believe he wanted to continue talking about that. But 505 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 4: I mean, when Arkansas mails you a package and then Mario, 506 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 4: did you say They commented that they're sitting more. Yeah, 507 00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 4: they said it's not over yet, like this is just 508 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 4: the beginning. Wow, it's consistent, troll job. When are we 509 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:30,680 Speaker 4: going to start sending them stuff? That's what I want 510 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:32,359 Speaker 4: to know. When are we going to start doing some stuff? 511 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 4: I want to cut the heads off the nuggets and 512 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:37,119 Speaker 4: mail them back like a mafia. Oh wow, is that 513 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:38,159 Speaker 4: too far? I like that? 514 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:40,400 Speaker 5: I like that, but we've got to fire something back though. 515 00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 5: I'm with Mario. I don't know what we're gonna do, 516 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 5: but we've got to do something. I'm sucking a KFC 517 00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:46,560 Speaker 5: or I don't know if that would be as funny. 518 00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:48,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, they commented on our posts that they're not done. 519 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,440 Speaker 4: Get ready for more? So, Tyson, if you're listening, I'm 520 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:54,359 Speaker 4: not a big fan of your frozen nuggets. I'm not 521 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:55,919 Speaker 4: eight years old, but if you want to send me 522 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 4: just some fresh bacon, you know, I'll take some bacon 523 00:20:58,359 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 4: in the next one. 524 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 2: Nothing wrong, were packing. 525 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 4: More news to just dropped. Malachi Marino visiting Kentucky on 526 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:08,000 Speaker 4: an official visit. We mentioned Jasper was in yesterday. Today, 527 00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 4: Malachi Marino is on campus hearing from Mark Pope Malachai 528 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 4: make it happen, Man make it happen. Also, aj Debonsa 529 00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 4: the number one player in the country. He's kind of 530 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:21,760 Speaker 4: one of those generational talents. It's looking like he cut 531 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:24,919 Speaker 4: his list to seven, but it does not include Kentuckucky. Now, 532 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 4: I will say he is asking for a very large number, 533 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:31,120 Speaker 4: so that might plan issue there. He said, the list 534 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,359 Speaker 4: is based on coaches who spoke with my dad the most. 535 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:35,240 Speaker 4: He will decide in February, so I guess you could 536 00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:37,960 Speaker 4: still maybe try to try to get back in the mix. 537 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:41,080 Speaker 4: But number one players moving on without Uk on his list. 538 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:43,440 Speaker 2: Spoke with his dad the most. That's interesting. 539 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:46,239 Speaker 5: You know parents are always involved in recruiting processes. We 540 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:48,520 Speaker 5: were talking about dads suiting up with shoulder pads and 541 00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 5: wearing the receiver gloves. 542 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:51,159 Speaker 2: But Shane, how do you feel about that. 543 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,639 Speaker 4: You're a big fan of Marcu's Bolden picking his school 544 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:55,159 Speaker 4: because his mom told him where to go. What do 545 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:57,400 Speaker 4: you think about whoever talks to my dad the most 546 00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:00,440 Speaker 4: is while you're cutting schools. M Yeah, I don't like it. 547 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 3: I think that you know, this is your moment, you 548 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:04,760 Speaker 3: gotta choose where you want to go. This is not 549 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 3: your parents going to college. But you know what, we 550 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:09,479 Speaker 3: may be running into that with Ryan Lemon. You think 551 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:12,480 Speaker 3: Ryan's gonna have a bigin little less where Josiah goes. 552 00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:13,960 Speaker 3: So I may have to, you know, have to calm 553 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 3: down Ryan a little bit and say, hey, let them 554 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 3: let him pick where he wants to go. 555 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:17,880 Speaker 2: It's not your decision. 556 00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:22,120 Speaker 4: I certainly feel that coming ahead.

Kentucky is a twenty five and a half 605 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:43,479 Speaker 4: point favorite. Pretty high, pretty high, that's all right. I 606 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:46,840 Speaker 4: love seeing this one though. Louisville at Kentucky is a 607 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 4: pick them.

Well that didn't exist anymore, 612 00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 4: But I might have to go in dabbling a little 613 00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 4: Louisville at Kentucky as a pick them. We also have 614 00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:07,560 Speaker 4: looking at Kentucky's odds to win the national championship. I'm 615 00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:08,200 Speaker 4: still scrolling. 616 00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 5: Is that plus thirty thousand? I think that's what it was. 617 00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:13,680 Speaker 5: But I did see regular season win total at six 618 00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:14,160 Speaker 5: and a half. 619 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:16,400 Speaker 4: That's the one I was gonna bring up next. We'll 620 00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:17,920 Speaker 4: look lucky, go ahead and hop on here. How you 621 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:19,680 Speaker 4: feeling about a little six and a half win total? 622 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 4: You dabble in the gambling from time to time. 623 00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:23,960 Speaker 11: Yeah, I think it's more likely they go seven to 624 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:26,399 Speaker 11: five and six and six, so for sure. 625 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 4: Especially if it's the minus one fifteen that I think 626 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:30,679 Speaker 4: it was earlier. Sometimes the juice gets a little too 627 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 4: much to but I'll do some one fifteen. 628 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 11: Right, And I think during this Bowl streak they have 629 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:37,720 Speaker 11: you got to throw out I think the COVID season. 630 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,160 Speaker 11: But I think they've went over every year but one. 631 00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 11: I think the twenty twenty two year was seven and 632 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:45,360 Speaker 11: a half, So I think they've gone over every year. 633 00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:47,520 Speaker 11: So you could have a lot of mini Fridgers like 634 00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:48,160 Speaker 11: Drew Franklin. 635 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 2: That's right. 636 00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:50,760 Speaker 4: Oh, it's not a mini fridge, It's it's the full deal. 637 00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:54,720 Speaker 4: Got that on Black Friday, right after they won the 638 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 4: Governor's Cup. Mario spread, I know you're interested in our 639 00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:01,920 Speaker 4: law familiar TBT team into Philadelphia two and a half 640 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:05,120 Speaker 4: point favorites like I know you liked them to cover. 641 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 4: But how bummed are you that you and I are 642 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,359 Speaker 4: maybe the two biggest tvt fan boys on Earth and 643 00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 4: we're not able to go are you? Are you all right? 644 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,359 Speaker 4: I'm a little bit sad about that, but you know 645 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:18,440 Speaker 4: we can. We can hang out Case Bar.

Join us at Chaos Bar if you'd like. 649 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 4: We'll be there at nine o'clock for that game. But 650 00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 4: Nate Sestina, yesterday news comes out he's not playing. 651 00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:32,119 Speaker 6: I think we still have a good shot though we 652 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 6: got we got Kellen Grady's been kind of quiet. I'm 653 00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:37,720 Speaker 6: expecting him to step up, and Kenner and and Eric 654 00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 6: Bledsoe didn't play I'm not gonna say they played terrible, 655 00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:42,639 Speaker 6: but you know, we're expecting them to step up a 656 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:44,560 Speaker 6: little bit more as well. A lot of weapons on 657 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 6: this team, so I'm confident that they'll get the job done. 658 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 4: Canner has more than he showed in Freedom Hall. Wasn't 659 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,320 Speaker 4: a great game from him. He carried him in Raparena 660 00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 4: through three. They're gonna need him to step up and 661 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:55,239 Speaker 4: have another one of those big games. And then, as 662 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:57,399 Speaker 4: you said, Kellen Grady and Aaron Harrison needs to hit 663 00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:00,199 Speaker 4: some threes because Nate, Nate's like third in the entire 664 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,119 Speaker 4: tournament in three pointers. I think he has fifteen and 665 00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:04,560 Speaker 4: four games. Somebody's got to make up for that outside shooting. 666 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:06,000 Speaker 4: Maybe maybe Willie Cauley's done. 667 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 6: I don't know he's been taking three William Curry's doing. 668 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 6: But you're feeling good even without Nate. I'm feeling good 669 00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 6: without Nate. This team is loaded. They got a lot 670 00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:15,320 Speaker 6: of talent. And then the good news is this is 671 00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:17,320 Speaker 6: not there last year. They'll be back next year as well. 672 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:18,919 Speaker 4: Is that a scoop? You already breaking news? You have 673 00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 4: to scoop? 674 00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:23,200 Speaker 6: Shout out twenty Beckham. He said they're trying to build 675 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 6: a dynasty. 676 00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:26,120 Speaker 2: All right, well or Daniel Orton pleae. 677 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:29,439 Speaker 4: Yes more, Daniel Orton Nate had a family obligation. I 678 00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:31,240 Speaker 4: guess they're keeping that profit. But he hopes to be 679 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:34,240 Speaker 4: there Sunday. Let's talk football with Lucky. You've been in 680 00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:36,160 Speaker 4: the fray and we've been in here just wondering what's 681 00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 4: going on? What have we missed? Yeah, while you were busy, 682 00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:43,040 Speaker 4: we were trying to do our just regular show, talk, 683 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:45,200 Speaker 4: a little basketball, wait for news, and people just kept 684 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:48,240 Speaker 4: crashing the parties. Ion Childress, your boy, Josh Gatis, Stoops, 685 00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 4: Vince Merrow, They've been all showing up. But what have 686 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:52,320 Speaker 4: we been missing? At media Day on the other side 687 00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 4: of this wall, Yeah. 688 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:57,639 Speaker 11: I think two big things. Offensively, there was eight hundred 689 00:27:57,720 --> 00:27:59,159 Speaker 11: thousand questions about tempo. 690 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:00,840 Speaker 4: I asked him one too. 691 00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:04,920 Speaker 11: Everyone wants to know about you know, are you gonna 692 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:07,720 Speaker 11: play faster? And Mark Stoops you know, they kind of 693 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:09,040 Speaker 11: got sick of the question. He was kind of like, 694 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 11: you know, I've got this question a bunch of times, 695 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:13,199 Speaker 11: and it's pretty much he wants people to know like 696 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:15,760 Speaker 11: he's hurt the criticism and that they're gonna play faster, 697 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,320 Speaker 11: but they're not gonna be a full throttle foot on 698 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:20,720 Speaker 11: the gas, and he's specifically mentioned we're not gonna do 699 00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 11: Ole miss in Tennessee, but we are going to play faster. 700 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:26,920 Speaker 11: And then defensively, Mark Stoops when I was way to say, 701 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 11: you know, we're gonna play more man coverage, and then 702 00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 11: Brad White kind of said the same thing. And that's 703 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 11: another criticism that a lot of people have had this offseason. 704 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:37,160 Speaker 11: So to me, those were kind of the two big 705 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 11: kind of takeaways from from today is that, Hey, you 706 00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:43,720 Speaker 11: know that what people have complained about they're looking to 707 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:47,480 Speaker 11: fix and they're they're working on fixing those problems. So 708 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:49,240 Speaker 11: I think if you had took anything from today, I 709 00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 11: would take that that would be my biggest takeaway. 710 00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:53,320 Speaker 4: Now I'm feeling like I messed up the interview. We 711 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:54,960 Speaker 4: only had like four questions with Stoops and I went 712 00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:56,840 Speaker 4: right to tempo and no wonder he was kind of 713 00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:59,960 Speaker 4: assumed annoyed by that question. Had no clue that was 714 00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 4: I didn't know. I'm just in here hosting a radio show. 715 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 4: Heard from Bush Hampden from the first time, well not 716 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:06,920 Speaker 4: the first time, but his first media day. Did he 717 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:10,760 Speaker 4: have anything out of the ordinary other than tempo matters. No, 718 00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:11,800 Speaker 4: he did. 719 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 11: He even gave it like, you know, we're going to 720 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:16,400 Speaker 11: run a hundred plays a game, just mockingly joked to 721 00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:19,080 Speaker 11: one of those one of those questions he can't. I 722 00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 11: think Bushamton came off, well, it's pretty much you know, 723 00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 11: the coach speak answers you can expect in an event like this. 724 00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 11: But I think he feels really good about his offense. 725 00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 11: I think offensive line obviously is another hot button issue 726 00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:34,320 Speaker 11: around this football program. He likes the depth there, so 727 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 11: I think they're saying the right things. We'll have to 728 00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 11: see it kind of play out. But and then Rock 729 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:42,480 Speaker 11: Vandergriffs the other thing, kind of the old school, loves 730 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:43,560 Speaker 11: the demeanor, loves. 731 00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:44,240 Speaker 2: His work ethic. 732 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:47,320 Speaker 11: I think they like what they've seen from VVG to 733 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 11: this point, but they got to go out and do 734 00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 11: it on Saturday, so they're not They're not getting too 735 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 11: far ahead. But I think there's some a lot of 736 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 11: quiet confidence, I think, surrounding both the offense and the defense. 737 00:29:58,000 --> 00:29:59,239 Speaker 11: And now we just got to see what they can 738 00:29:59,240 --> 00:29:59,880 Speaker 11: go do on to. 739 00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 4: Everyone knows how hard this schedule is. But let's just 740 00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 4: say Vandergriff pans out and he does what they recruited 741 00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 4: him from Georgia to do. What can this season look like? 742 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,280 Speaker 11: That is a great question, Drew Franklin. That's why I 743 00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:15,680 Speaker 11: Heeart pays you the big bucks. 744 00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:17,200 Speaker 4: They do. 745 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:22,280 Speaker 5: Checks in them out marios die. 746 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 11: But you know, it's hard to say. It's hard to 747 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 11: say because it feels like the ceiling is probably lower 748 00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:32,040 Speaker 11: than normal because of the schedule. You're out in the visions. 749 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:32,240 Speaker 4: Now. 750 00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:34,560 Speaker 11: Texas and Georgia might be two of the best three 751 00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:36,200 Speaker 11: teams in the country. You play one of those, you 752 00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:38,760 Speaker 11: play one at home, that makes you know, a game 753 00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:40,200 Speaker 11: hard to win than you got to go to Texas 754 00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 11: and then Ole Miss might be a playoff team. Tennessee 755 00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:44,360 Speaker 11: might be a playoff team. Might be four top ten 756 00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 11: teams you play and three of them are on the road. 757 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:49,240 Speaker 11: That make that that kind of puts a hard ceiling 758 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:51,360 Speaker 11: on it. I think if everything like what you're talking about, 759 00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:52,960 Speaker 11: if things go well, like if the offense is better 760 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:56,680 Speaker 11: than expected, the defense lives up to expectations, I think 761 00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 11: eight and four is probably the realistic expectation, Like they 762 00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 11: could get to eight. 763 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:02,959 Speaker 4: And for just need to learn eight and four as 764 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:07,040 Speaker 4: a success. You train your brain that eight and four 765 00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:07,840 Speaker 4: can be big year. 766 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 11: I think the important lesson I think this year for 767 00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:11,880 Speaker 11: a lot of people is gonna be the schedule is 768 00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 11: gonna dictate a lot of this, Like who who is 769 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 11: on your schedule when you play them? That is gonna 770 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:20,160 Speaker 11: dictate a lot of this For for everyone that's not 771 00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:22,720 Speaker 11: in that upper crust, like the Georgia crust, the top 772 00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:25,640 Speaker 11: of the line, the Texas, the Ohio State, everyone is 773 00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:28,080 Speaker 11: gonna it's gonna depend on their schedule and that's how 774 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:30,880 Speaker 11: it's gonna break. So for like Missouri and Ole miss like, 775 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:33,320 Speaker 11: they have the schedule and it's aligning with a really 776 00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:37,280 Speaker 11: good team for them. For Kentucky, if they have that 777 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:39,120 Speaker 11: really good team like we think they could possibly do 778 00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:41,600 Speaker 11: if they reach their potential, I don't know if the 779 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:43,840 Speaker 11: schedule lines up for them to have that type of 780 00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:47,800 Speaker 11: that type of big push and so that's really they could. 781 00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:49,960 Speaker 11: You know, it's not fun to talk about when you 782 00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:51,320 Speaker 11: break it down, but I do think it's important to 783 00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:53,400 Speaker 11: remember in twenty twenty one, we were all talking like 784 00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:55,880 Speaker 11: the schedule was brutal. I don't know, like Kentucky schedule 785 00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 11: is really brutal this year and at Ordron got fired 786 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:02,120 Speaker 11: and damn moment got fired, and so it kind of 787 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:04,480 Speaker 11: opened up for him there. So you never know how 788 00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 11: it's gonna break, how the schedule is gonna break, So 789 00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 11: that's always important to remember. But just looking at it 790 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:11,720 Speaker 11: right now, knowing what we know, it feels like the 791 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 11: ceiling might be a little lower than normal, just because 792 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 11: the schedules so brutal. 793 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 4: I won't do boring radio and do a position by 794 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:19,840 Speaker 4: position breakdown. I think that's the lazy way. But I 795 00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 4: do want to get into the secondary. Max Harrison obviously 796 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:25,400 Speaker 4: the name everyone comes back, but he's gonna need some 797 00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:28,240 Speaker 4: pieces around him. You have Jansen, Dunn, hard Away back, 798 00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:31,400 Speaker 4: but uh, what's that group in safeties as well? How 799 00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 4: is he going to look on the back end of 800 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:33,440 Speaker 4: Brad White's defense. 801 00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:34,920 Speaker 11: I think a lot of people are excited about DJ 802 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:36,160 Speaker 11: Waller Michigan transfer. 803 00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:37,560 Speaker 4: I mean, if you. 804 00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:40,040 Speaker 11: Were to draw up a Stoop's cornerback, I think we 805 00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:41,560 Speaker 11: would all be like, oh, it's gonna be gout six 806 00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:44,240 Speaker 11: two sixty three with really long arms. He looks like 807 00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:46,480 Speaker 11: he came from Central casting, and so that was a 808 00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:49,200 Speaker 11: guy who was on Michigan was competing for a starting spot. 809 00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 11: I don't think that's gonna be given to him at Kentucky, 810 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:52,720 Speaker 11: but I would be shocked if we getting the season 811 00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:54,160 Speaker 11: and he's not a starter. I think people are really 812 00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:57,240 Speaker 11: excited about him, tagging him with Harrison on the outside, 813 00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:01,480 Speaker 11: I think that's that's an intriguing cornerback do. I would 814 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:03,800 Speaker 11: say Harriston's one of the better cornerbacks in the country returning, 815 00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:06,680 Speaker 11: I think Waller's got a potential to really turn into 816 00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:09,800 Speaker 11: an NFL player, So that's exciting. I think safety was 817 00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:13,000 Speaker 11: honestly maybe the biggest disappointment position wise on the football 818 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:14,800 Speaker 11: team last year. You return a lot and you get 819 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 11: Christian story back and ty Bryant added a lot of 820 00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:20,000 Speaker 11: experience last year. Unexpectedly he had to play a big 821 00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,000 Speaker 11: role in SEC play like he played in some big 822 00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:25,120 Speaker 11: SEC games. So I think death wise, they're in a 823 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:27,000 Speaker 11: good spot. And Brad White even mentioned this, if something 824 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:30,600 Speaker 11: goes wrong, like essentially paraphrasing, we can put somebody else 825 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:33,360 Speaker 11: in if their injury happens or bad play. They really 826 00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:35,560 Speaker 11: didn't have that option on the table, and they dealt 827 00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:37,760 Speaker 11: with some injuries. Jordan love It had to miss some time, 828 00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:40,080 Speaker 11: Jalen Geiger had to miss some time, and so that 829 00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:42,240 Speaker 11: I think injuries really caught up to them. I think 830 00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:47,720 Speaker 11: they're better positioned to absorb something like that. So overall, 831 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:50,880 Speaker 11: I think I think the ceiling is higher because you've 832 00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:53,320 Speaker 11: got star power obviously with Hairston, But I also think 833 00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:55,360 Speaker 11: they've done a good job raising the floor because we 834 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:58,120 Speaker 11: saw the floor last year because of all the injuries 835 00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:00,400 Speaker 11: and because of the kind of inexperienced they have. Where 836 00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:03,680 Speaker 11: they now they have some more inexperience, and even the 837 00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:05,280 Speaker 11: guys that had to play in struggle last year, they've 838 00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:08,120 Speaker 11: added those snaps, so that's gonna, hope make them better players. 839 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:09,960 Speaker 11: And then the addition of Waller and I think Christian 840 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,680 Speaker 11: story the Alabama transfer is really gonna help them in 841 00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:15,239 Speaker 11: the secondary. And there's gonna be pressure on them, but 842 00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:17,359 Speaker 11: they think, and I think they really believe this, that 843 00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:20,200 Speaker 11: this defensive front, in this pass rush could really cause 844 00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:23,000 Speaker 11: some problems. And that's really gonna be the backbone and 845 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:25,600 Speaker 11: the spine of their defense is the disruption they're gonna 846 00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:28,520 Speaker 11: get from that front. And even Brad White mentioned this today. 847 00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:31,160 Speaker 11: They lose Josiah Hayes and he was a really good 848 00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:34,600 Speaker 11: sec in tier defensive tackle and they pretty much his 849 00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:36,920 Speaker 11: specials like, we're fine. You know that was a position 850 00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:38,759 Speaker 11: to lose. We could we could lose some one. I 851 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:41,080 Speaker 11: really like our depth there and then, And I ain't 852 00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:43,160 Speaker 11: gonna lie. If I was coaching Dean Walker, I'd be 853 00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:44,399 Speaker 11: pretty dag unconfident too. 854 00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:47,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, we all know what Deon can do, but also 855 00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:48,960 Speaker 4: what you had the surprise when we were coming back, 856 00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:52,000 Speaker 4: but doomas Johnson coming from Georgia. I think I really 857 00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:54,000 Speaker 4: got people fired up. Is he gonna be what everyone 858 00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:55,960 Speaker 4: expects at linebacker helping out on to you? 859 00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:58,440 Speaker 11: Yeah, I'm I think you should be really excited about him. 860 00:34:58,440 --> 00:34:59,040 Speaker 4: Not just him. 861 00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:01,200 Speaker 11: I think the Eric Jack is probably the most underrated 862 00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:02,520 Speaker 11: player on this football team. 863 00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:04,800 Speaker 4: We should have named him in our NFL conversation. 864 00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:07,800 Speaker 11: He has led the team in tackles two years in 865 00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:09,960 Speaker 11: a row. He doesn't like if you watch him, he 866 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,560 Speaker 11: does not miss tackles. And I think he's lost some 867 00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:14,719 Speaker 11: He looks like he's lost some weight. So I think 868 00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:16,719 Speaker 11: that that's the one question you would have. It's like, 869 00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:18,480 Speaker 11: what can he covers? What's this pass coverage? 870 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:18,680 Speaker 1: Like? 871 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:20,480 Speaker 11: I think he can play out in space. I think 872 00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:22,440 Speaker 11: he's underrated and I think the team of him and 873 00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:24,920 Speaker 11: Domus Johnson has a chance to be one of the 874 00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:27,840 Speaker 11: better linebacker duos, not only has to see like in college. 875 00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:28,680 Speaker 2: Football, if they stay healthy. 876 00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:32,000 Speaker 11: Both of those dudes are NFL players, and Jackson has 877 00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:34,760 Speaker 11: been in this system for a long time, and Dumis 878 00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:36,680 Speaker 11: Johnson was you know, if he plays like his sophomore 879 00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:38,600 Speaker 11: year that was one of the better linebackers in the country. 880 00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:41,280 Speaker 11: So I kind of lumped them in with the front. 881 00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:45,200 Speaker 11: It's just like, guys, this front is really really good, 882 00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 11: Like you should know this, Like this has a chance 883 00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:50,200 Speaker 11: to be like a special group if all these guys can, 884 00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:52,880 Speaker 11: you know, you stay moderately healthy, Like they have a 885 00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:54,480 Speaker 11: chance to be a pain in the rear for a 886 00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:57,200 Speaker 11: lot of offenses they face. And that's why I think 887 00:35:57,200 --> 00:35:59,600 Speaker 11: the defense has a chance to it has a chance 888 00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:02,640 Speaker 11: to be one of March Stoops's better units because of that, 889 00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:05,200 Speaker 11: mainly because of that talent in the front seven. And 890 00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:08,120 Speaker 11: then like Maxwell Harriston's emergency last year is a big deal, 891 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:09,560 Speaker 11: Like he came out of nowhere to be one of 892 00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:11,960 Speaker 11: the better star potentially corners and that you know in 893 00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:14,080 Speaker 11: the SEC. And that's that's a big deal, especially when 894 00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:16,359 Speaker 11: you got a front like that because you've got proven 895 00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:20,080 Speaker 11: commodities and you have legitimate star power NFL guys who 896 00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:22,080 Speaker 11: are gonna play on some they star power on your team, 897 00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:24,480 Speaker 11: and that raises your ceiling as a group. 898 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:26,799 Speaker 4: Before we take a break, you know, we were naming 899 00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:29,360 Speaker 4: all these returners and guys got out of transfer a portal. 900 00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:32,200 Speaker 4: Are any of these young guys gonna crack the rotation 901 00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:35,160 Speaker 4: of Brian Robinson, Smith twins or offensively? Is there any 902 00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:36,960 Speaker 4: any freshmen we need to be looking out for. 903 00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:39,960 Speaker 11: Yeah, the draft Smith anytime they talk about him may 904 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:41,600 Speaker 11: kind of gush a little bit. You can kind of 905 00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:44,320 Speaker 11: tell they're really excited about him. A defensive tackle. Definitely 906 00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:46,000 Speaker 11: think he's gonna have a role to Ryan Nichols. And 907 00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:47,960 Speaker 11: the secondary's a guy I think to watch. A freshman 908 00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:50,120 Speaker 11: cornerback was a really big recruiting for the win for 909 00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:52,520 Speaker 11: them for Vince Marrow out of Cincinnati. So those are 910 00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:55,080 Speaker 11: two guys I will watch closely. And then Jacob Smith's 911 00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:58,120 Speaker 11: another one because depth wise at outside linebacker, I wouldn't 912 00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:00,160 Speaker 11: say that's the deepest position. So he's a guy I 913 00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:03,640 Speaker 11: could see potentially playing some surprising snaps this year. So 914 00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:05,440 Speaker 11: all of those guys, I think they're they're they're really 915 00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:07,520 Speaker 11: excited about that group, but in general that I think 916 00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:10,120 Speaker 11: they really think highly specifically on defense of that that 917 00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:11,000 Speaker 11: freshman class. 918 00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:13,080 Speaker 4: We were there when they committed after the Kroger Game 919 00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:14,799 Speaker 4: of the Week class fall. That was a big get 920 00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:17,000 Speaker 4: and it's good to hear they're already making moves on campus. 921 00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:20,040 Speaker 4: We'll talk more football with Luckett. We have one more 922 00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:24,120 Speaker 4: segment of the summer before Matt Jones gets back. Maybe 923 00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:25,520 Speaker 4: we'll just tell him he can take another week. I'll 924 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:28,759 Speaker 4: just want to keep going. Oh well, I think Ryan's ready. 925 00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:33,360 Speaker 4: Ryan is the most ready, but we're gonna take a 926 00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:35,680 Speaker 4: break here. When we come back. We'll wrap it up 927 00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:37,799 Speaker 4: here at UK Football Media Day and wrap it up 928 00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:41,560 Speaker 4: for the ten weeks without Matt Jones. This is KSR 929 00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:47,239 Speaker 4: welcome back. One last segment of Kentucky Sports Radio with 930 00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:49,560 Speaker 4: that out Matt Jones, and then he will be back 931 00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:53,000 Speaker 4: next Monday. We can't even talk. I'm winding down the 932 00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:55,319 Speaker 4: ten weeks ready to have him back. He'll be at 933 00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:58,000 Speaker 4: ks BAR Monday through Thursday next week. So if you've 934 00:37:58,000 --> 00:37:59,879 Speaker 4: missed Matt, want to come by here the show. We'll 935 00:37:59,880 --> 00:38:02,879 Speaker 4: be there Monday through Thursday. Then on Friday, We're going 936 00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:05,680 Speaker 4: across the state to Hopkinsville, Billy Hopkinsville. That don't get 937 00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:07,480 Speaker 4: to go there very often. Isn't that your neck of 938 00:38:07,480 --> 00:38:09,520 Speaker 4: the woods. It's pretty close. I got a family there. 939 00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:12,320 Speaker 4: I'm looking forward to it. Might even pull through Madisonville 940 00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:13,920 Speaker 4: a little bit, say how to Farrell's and all my 941 00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:16,680 Speaker 4: old favorite places. But uh, mostly looking back for getting 942 00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:18,319 Speaker 4: into a routine next week with Matt. Like I said, 943 00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:21,040 Speaker 4: go by, he'll be a chas bar Monday through Thursday 944 00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:23,560 Speaker 4: if you want to see him. So looking forward to that. 945 00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:26,080 Speaker 4: I still got Adam Luckett here talking a little bit 946 00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:28,400 Speaker 4: of football. Did you get the chance the interviewing the 947 00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:31,319 Speaker 4: players before you joined us? Anybody have any interesting things 948 00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:32,000 Speaker 4: to say on the field? 949 00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:34,799 Speaker 11: Got to talk about Brock Vandergriff or too Brock vander 950 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:38,120 Speaker 11: Griff excuse me? Gavin Wimset got to talk to DJ 951 00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:40,840 Speaker 11: Waller you mentioned and then deep big d On Walker. 952 00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:45,719 Speaker 4: How does that vander Griff Wimset QB room look because 953 00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:48,080 Speaker 4: I think that was a pretty unexpected transfer for everyone 954 00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:48,880 Speaker 4: once they got Brock. 955 00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:50,319 Speaker 2: Yeah. 956 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:52,680 Speaker 11: I think I also think bush Ampton came into a 957 00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:55,200 Speaker 11: room and it had no QB experience, and it was like, 958 00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:57,920 Speaker 11: we gotta have have some type of insurance playing here. 959 00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:00,439 Speaker 11: I actually talked to Wimset about it because the room 960 00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:03,440 Speaker 11: was not on this roster. Yeah, the entire room is 961 00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:06,680 Speaker 11: brand new, even the coach, and Gavin Winsett was like, yeah, 962 00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:08,959 Speaker 11: it's kind of unique because we're talking about how things 963 00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:11,080 Speaker 11: worked all well because we're all different places last year 964 00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:12,399 Speaker 11: and now we're at a new place, so we kind 965 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:15,799 Speaker 11: of have talked through some things, which is definitely a 966 00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:21,080 Speaker 11: different I think they wanted to have another like weapon 967 00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:24,040 Speaker 11: in the run game, like run game diversity. They want 968 00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:26,360 Speaker 11: to have another like wrinkle they could throw at defenses. 969 00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:28,560 Speaker 11: And I think a plan is gonna They're gonna run 970 00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:30,480 Speaker 11: rock I think a decent amount and. 971 00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 4: So it doesn't seem like a slide guy. I think 972 00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:33,200 Speaker 4: you even heard that at SEC. 973 00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:35,879 Speaker 11: I asked him met today and he said, uh, well, 974 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:36,719 Speaker 11: we'll see about that. 975 00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:38,879 Speaker 2: So I don't a little Yeah. 976 00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:40,439 Speaker 11: I don't think we're gonna have a full on Tim 977 00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:44,200 Speaker 11: Tebow on our hands. But I think the whim Set stuff, 978 00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:46,560 Speaker 11: I think he did really good job running like and 979 00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:48,680 Speaker 11: run packages last year. Ran for over five hundred yards, 980 00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:50,759 Speaker 11: had like eleven touchdowns in the Big Ten, so that's 981 00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:52,640 Speaker 11: something they can bring. And they even recruited a guy 982 00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:55,160 Speaker 11: at UCLA who was kind of a glorified Wold quarterback 983 00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:57,880 Speaker 11: who knowed Virginia Tech. So it's obviously something they were 984 00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:01,120 Speaker 11: looking at, and I think that's I think Hampden wants 985 00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:02,480 Speaker 11: to have that be a part of the offense. We 986 00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:05,640 Speaker 11: all know Mark Stoops loves some wildcat football and wildcat 987 00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:09,160 Speaker 11: formation football specifically, and I think that's gonna be an option. 988 00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:11,920 Speaker 11: But I think they're really trying, or they're really committed 989 00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:15,000 Speaker 11: to having multiple options in the run game and being 990 00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:17,000 Speaker 11: able to run the football. And it's not like last 991 00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:19,360 Speaker 11: year they Ray Davis ran for a thousand yards, but 992 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:21,439 Speaker 11: it was a lot of like, oh, there's a forty 993 00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:23,759 Speaker 11: yard rip, there's a thirty eight yard run, there's a 994 00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:27,160 Speaker 11: twenty seven yard touchdown against Louisville. But there wasn't necessarily 995 00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:29,840 Speaker 11: a lot of second and fours, a lot of second 996 00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:32,080 Speaker 11: and threes, a lot of second and eights turning into 997 00:40:32,120 --> 00:40:34,440 Speaker 11: third and ones. They were getting behind the chains a 998 00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:35,719 Speaker 11: lot in the run game, and I think they want 999 00:40:35,719 --> 00:40:38,600 Speaker 11: to get to where they can play ahead and find 1000 00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:41,000 Speaker 11: ways to be more efficient. And I believe qb Rum 1001 00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:43,680 Speaker 11: will help them do that. And then Mark Stoops mentioned 1002 00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:45,839 Speaker 11: if you do that, it's easier to find explosives. Like 1003 00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:49,080 Speaker 11: anyone to know watch his NFL football knows all second 1004 00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:51,399 Speaker 11: and two play action down here. But if you wide 1005 00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:54,160 Speaker 11: open anyone know, anyone to watch football, you know could 1006 00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:55,919 Speaker 11: if you're playing ahead, if you're getting second and two, 1007 00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:58,600 Speaker 11: second and threes, big players are more likely. And I 1008 00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:00,719 Speaker 11: think that's what they're looking for. Actual year, and really 1009 00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:02,680 Speaker 11: the year before, they haven't. They've had no efficiency in 1010 00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:04,239 Speaker 11: the run game. It's got them behind the chains and 1011 00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:06,719 Speaker 11: got them in a lot of trouble. And that's why 1012 00:41:06,719 --> 00:41:08,480 Speaker 11: they've had so many short drives. They want to have 1013 00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:11,279 Speaker 11: longer drives, want to get more first downs, want to 1014 00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:12,640 Speaker 11: we want to play faster. 1015 00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:14,000 Speaker 4: Move the sticks, you know. 1016 00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:16,440 Speaker 11: That's been the biggest issue is anything is they haven't 1017 00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:18,680 Speaker 11: been able to move the six Any of their drives 1018 00:41:18,680 --> 00:41:21,360 Speaker 11: the last two years have felt like six place seventy 1019 00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:23,680 Speaker 11: two yards. It hasn't been any long sustained drives. 1020 00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:25,160 Speaker 4: I gotta get this be off of you right here 1021 00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:26,759 Speaker 4: on your collar. I don't want to interrupt you, but I 1022 00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:28,920 Speaker 4: don't want you to get stung in the neck.
