1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,920 Speaker 1: Well, well, well, look who they let in the postgame 2 00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:09,040 Speaker 1: studio for the local Toyota Dealers KSR postgame show. I 3 00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:12,440 Speaker 1: am not Matt Jones, nor am I Ryan Lemon. They 4 00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:14,280 Speaker 1: each have the night off. I think Matt has a 5 00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:16,919 Speaker 1: log management day and Ryan had the Auburn post game, 6 00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:19,000 Speaker 1: so he certainly did a night off. So they left 7 00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:23,599 Speaker 1: the show with me, Drew Franklin hosting the local Toyota 8 00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:26,320 Speaker 1: Dealers KSR post game show for the first time. I'm 9 00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:29,440 Speaker 1: here with my good friend Billy R Sports, the man 10 00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:31,440 Speaker 1: who lives in this studio. I think he's been here 11 00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:33,600 Speaker 1: since the pre show this morning. That's what he does 12 00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:35,720 Speaker 1: on game days, and he will be with me for 13 00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:39,640 Speaker 1: this hour as we recap yet another fun dress rehearsal 14 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:43,519 Speaker 1: for Kentucky basketball down the street. They beat Minnesota State 15 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:48,040 Speaker 1: University man Cato the Mavericks ninety eight to sixty seven 16 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:51,040 Speaker 1: in the final exhibition game before it gets really real 17 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 1: next week. Kats start on Monday, but they had these 18 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 1: two tune ups to get ready for that one, and 19 00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 1: tonight was almost as fun as the Wesleyan game last 20 00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:01,600 Speaker 1: week got off to a little bit of a slow start. 21 00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 1: We'll get into that but overall a big win as 22 00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:06,319 Speaker 1: they win by thirty one points. Lots of standouts in 23 00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:08,679 Speaker 1: the game. I'm now convinced Jackson Robinson as the best 24 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:11,880 Speaker 1: three point shooter of all time. Lamont Butler is still 25 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:15,679 Speaker 1: the man. Great defense, the assist, the few turnovers. We 26 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 1: know what we get from those guys. Had a few 27 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,800 Speaker 1: other players step up, some surprises. I'll start just at 28 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 1: the top. How about we talk about how Mark Pope 29 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 1: rolled out there tonight. Billy our Sports had the same 30 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:26,839 Speaker 1: lineup we saw five days ago. 31 00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:27,480 Speaker 2: He did. 32 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:29,520 Speaker 3: He had some Devin Booker shoes. 33 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 1: On, is what Devin Booker I saw. He just took 34 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 1: his I've been down here. I didn't get to go 35 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:34,960 Speaker 1: to the postgame press conference as I normally do, but 36 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,080 Speaker 1: I was trying to fall along on my computer. Looks 37 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 1: like Pope took his shoes off at the press conference. 38 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 1: That's new, just to show him off. 39 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:42,920 Speaker 3: But you know, if he can, Hope be careful with that, 40 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:45,479 Speaker 3: that could It's a slippery slope. He was telling Tom 41 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 3: about it in the pregame interview. By the way, it's 42 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 3: good to see you man, and I cannot believe this 43 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:51,080 Speaker 3: is your first first time postgame show. 44 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 1: First time feels natural. I'm sitting where I do fade this. 45 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 3: That's our other shows. 46 00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 1: It's you. You're a comfort level. If you weren't here, 47 00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 1: I would struggle with this a little bit, but it 48 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 1: feels normal. I've been in here for one postgame show 49 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,800 Speaker 1: in the past. Ryan was hosting and I was walking by, 50 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 1: and he still had three segments left, so you all 51 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,240 Speaker 1: called me up to conjoin. I even hosted a segment. 52 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 1: If anyone remembers that, I think it was the first 53 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 1: game last season. I got downstairs. You all were gonna 54 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:16,079 Speaker 1: hand the reins over to me, and my key card 55 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 1: didn't work to get in the building. That's where I 56 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 1: learned where I fit within the company. Took you a 57 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:21,639 Speaker 1: couple of weeks, but you got my key card to 58 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:22,519 Speaker 1: work after hours. 59 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 3: That sounds familiar. I know another case I remember that 60 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 3: doesn't have a key card and can't get into the building. 61 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:29,040 Speaker 1: Well, I think you lost is I think they just 62 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 1: didn't give me after hours access. Being in downtown lection 63 00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 1: and yeah, I made that one appearance in the past. 64 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 1: We had fun. I remember that one because a caller 65 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 1: I want to say Matt G could not if it's 66 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 1: not Matt G. I apologize Matt G. But it was 67 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 1: the first game last year maybe New Mexico State, and 68 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 1: he called in and said Read Shepherd should be the 69 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 1: starting point guard. I called him an idiot, said you're overreacting. 70 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:50,399 Speaker 1: Let these guys play out a few games. I don't 71 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,519 Speaker 1: even know. I don't even know how special Read was 72 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,520 Speaker 1: in that first one, but Matt was calling for Red 73 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 1: Shepherd year ago. 74 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 3: A little foreshadowing there from Matt G. I love it. 75 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,120 Speaker 3: By the way, I've got to say, they put you. 76 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 3: They put you up there pretty high in reparena with 77 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:03,239 Speaker 3: the new media seating. 78 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 1: Uh, buddy, you know, I don't complain. I have a 79 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 1: great job. It's free. Let's just say when people were 80 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 1: talking about Kirk Crease's name on the back of his jersey, 81 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 1: I couldn't read it. I'm up a little bit. Oh 82 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:14,799 Speaker 1: we are? 83 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 4: You know? 84 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:16,639 Speaker 1: Actually you know what I'm gonna start there. I had 85 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 1: this in my notes, but since you brought up the 86 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 1: Nosebleeds shout out to rock Castle County Middle School basketball, 87 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 1: I set up at the tip top of Reperena with 88 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:28,919 Speaker 1: my fellow media folks. We're up in section two thirty six. 89 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,960 Speaker 1: We couldn't be any higher. I see a big group 90 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 1: of people. It's all empty seats around me, but then 91 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 1: one clump of kind of kids about the same age, 92 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 1: few adults with him, and I assume, hey, this has 93 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: got to be your school group something. I'm gonna go 94 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: talk to him. It was rock Castle County Middle School. 95 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 1: They went to practice tonight and their gym was rented 96 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 1: out by the school choir the chorus, so they didn't 97 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 1: get to get any shots up. Okay, So their coach, 98 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 1: being a good coach KSR listener, he said, boys, we're 99 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 1: not gonna let this get us down. We're gonna do 100 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 1: some team building. We're gonna drive to Lexington, gonna go 101 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 1: to dinner, and then we're gonna go watch the cats. 102 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 1: So up in two thirty six at the very top, 103 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 1: with the backs against the wall was the rock Castle 104 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 1: County Middle School basketball team. There were a lot of them, 105 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 1: and Reperen was so empty. They actually got upgraded at 106 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:12,119 Speaker 1: to the lower level as the games. 107 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 3: Oh nice. 108 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:14,120 Speaker 1: I got to sit with him a little while. So 109 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: we're starting with the shout out there. 110 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 3: For them, Yeah, shout out absolutely. 111 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, good seeing them. Not a great crowded My abillity 112 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,360 Speaker 1: being honest, the people there were excited, good passionate group, 113 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: but a lot of empty seats up top. Let's get 114 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,840 Speaker 1: to the basketball though. Started the same five as a 115 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 1: week ago against Kentucky, Wesley got a little Lamont Butler, 116 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:35,479 Speaker 1: Otega Oway, Jackson Robinson, Andrew Carr, and Amari Williams. Going 117 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 1: into the season. Four of those spots. I was pretty 118 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:41,160 Speaker 1: sure about Butler, Robinson, Carr, Williams. That two really could 119 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 1: have been anything. Last week, Pope rolls out Otega Oway. 120 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:49,160 Speaker 1: He looked great last week, seven straight points right away, 121 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 1: two rebounds, looked like he's the one that needs to 122 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 1: be in the spot. Pope leaves him there again this 123 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 1: week and he does the same thing. He was the 124 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 1: energy guy early with four quick points, two quick rebounds 125 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:00,679 Speaker 1: in the opening minutes when things weren't really good. That well. 126 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,600 Speaker 1: I love him in that starting role. I hope that continues. 127 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 1: Otega We'll get to him him a lot more as 128 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:07,799 Speaker 1: the show goes on. But Uh one of the early 129 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 1: bright spots in a game that didn't have a lot 130 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 1: of bright spots in early, including Amari Williams getting injured 131 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:17,119 Speaker 1: three minutes into the game. He kind of he walked 132 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,920 Speaker 1: towards the tunnel where I'm sitting. Not gonna lie. The 133 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 1: look on his face did not look good. I had 134 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 1: major concerns. However, Pope has since provided an update. I'm 135 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 1: gonna get this exact, Pope said in his press game 136 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 1: postgame press conference, I think Amar's fine X rays came 137 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 1: back solid, but we'll get some more imaging tomorrow. Hopefully 138 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:37,799 Speaker 1: he'll be back soon. He spent most of the second 139 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,039 Speaker 1: half on an exercise bike, which is comforting once he 140 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 1: came back out. But Billy looked pretty scary there early on. 141 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 1: And it's good to hear that he could be right 142 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 1: around the corner. That Pope's confident that he'll be okay. 143 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's great to hear. I mean, you don't want 144 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:50,600 Speaker 3: to rush him back in a meaningless game. It's it's 145 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,719 Speaker 3: a great opportunity to get better, but it's obviously it 146 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:55,839 Speaker 3: doesn't matter. So I think that was the right call, 147 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 3: and hopefully he's okay because he is a big part 148 00:05:58,160 --> 00:05:59,480 Speaker 3: of what they want to do. I know he's a 149 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:01,799 Speaker 3: great pass and the Bigs seem like they're all pretty 150 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,280 Speaker 3: good passers this year, but that guy specifically, I think 151 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 3: he's got a lot ahead of them. 152 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:07,559 Speaker 1: Yeah, they did good backing them up, but you didn't 153 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 1: like seeing it. Mari, go down. I forgot to give 154 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 1: out phone number. Bill, you're supposed open that. I get 155 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,159 Speaker 1: so excited to see my first time. They're already gonna 156 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:13,480 Speaker 1: fire me. 157 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:15,720 Speaker 3: We're not answering the calls yet, that's true. You can 158 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:16,360 Speaker 3: wait till they. 159 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 1: Call me eight five two two eight seven on the 160 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,920 Speaker 1: local Toyota Dealers KSR postgames, you got it a five 161 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 1: nine to ato two two eight seven. Please call me. 162 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 1: We would love to help. Also, I don't get to 163 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 1: hear the KSR postgame show a lot. I'm usually still 164 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:32,600 Speaker 1: at the stadium. 165 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 3: For still Mark and I understand. 166 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,479 Speaker 1: I usually catch the last segment a time, it just 167 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: right getting in my car. But I know there's a 168 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,160 Speaker 1: lot of regulars that call this that we don't hear 169 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 1: in the morning. I'm my understanding is you hate kids 170 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 1: or something like that? 171 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 3: Oh, come on, is that that? I love kids? But 172 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,360 Speaker 3: it's just the parents have to announce that their kid 173 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 3: is on the phone. It's like the parents that take over. 174 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:52,599 Speaker 3: They say, hey, it's it's Chuck, and then they hand 175 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 3: it to their kid as soon as they answer the phone. 176 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 3: That's what drives me crazy, But you know what, it's 177 00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:59,599 Speaker 3: an exhibition game. Drew's hosting for the first time. Bring 178 00:06:59,600 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 3: on the kid. 179 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 1: Okay, well, I brought that up to say, if you're 180 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 1: a regular caller, maybe I don't hear from you in 181 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 1: the morning, call me tonight. Let's talk about the Waldcats. 182 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 1: Let's have some fun. It was a great game again 183 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 1: one ninety eight sixty seven. But I want to start 184 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 1: by just getting away the bad parts. Let's put those asides. 185 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 1: We can have fun before we go to bed a 186 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 1: little later on Billy. First half, little concerning there early 187 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 1: At one point it was twenty two to twenty and 188 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 1: Minnesota State had a three pointer to take the lead. 189 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 1: Didn't love that. Luckily it bounces off. I think from 190 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 1: that point Kentucky went on an eighteen to eighteen to 191 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 1: nothing run. They hit three unanswered threes right after Minnesota 192 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 1: State had a chance to take it. Trent Noah hit 193 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 1: the first one. Trent Noah, who was in before Travis Perry. 194 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 1: I don't know if that was an interesting tidbit about 195 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 1: the freshman. Then Lamon Butler and Jackson Robinson. They opened 196 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 1: up back up to about thirty to twenty and they 197 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 1: turned it on, but early on it was not looking good. 198 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 1: Two for eleven from three to start. Mark Pope said, 199 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 1: the shots we were taking weren't the shots that we love. 200 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: Said they weren't earning their teammates. Weren't earning the shots 201 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 1: for their teammates. They also turned the ball over a 202 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: lot in the Wesleyan That was kind of one of 203 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,040 Speaker 1: the best things about him, didn't turn it over. They 204 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 1: had the same amount of turnovers four in midway through 205 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:08,240 Speaker 1: the first half as they did in the entire game. 206 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe the Amari Williams thing kind of disorganized the group. 207 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 3: Mark Pope said that they were fatigued, they were struggling rebounding. 208 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 3: But then, like you said, the eighteen to zero run, 209 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 3: Jackson Robinson best three point shooter in the country, like 210 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 3: you've called him, I mean, he was. All he did 211 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 3: was shoot threes tonight. 212 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, and you know, you want your team to win 213 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,559 Speaker 1: by one hundred and make every shot, but you showing 214 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 1: a little adversity early could be good for him. 215 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 3: You know. 216 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 1: I never felt like I was worried that this could 217 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 1: be a close game throughout, but seeing twenty two to 218 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:39,960 Speaker 1: twenty early on against the Vision two team, I didn't 219 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 1: love it didn't help. Andrew Carr did not have a 220 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 1: great first half. He was a little concerning. He had 221 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 1: two free throws, two rebounds, and two fouls. Didn't play 222 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 1: much in that first half. You're kind of wondering what 223 00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:51,199 Speaker 1: he would if he would come back and do anything. 224 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 1: Second half played well. I think he finished with fourteen, 225 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 1: but in that early stretch wasn't looking good until Jackson 226 00:08:56,760 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 1: Robinson caught fire fifteen points on five threes, with four 227 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,959 Speaker 1: rebounds and three assists. I went to get my my 228 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 1: barbecue tacos at half time. Of course there, you know, 229 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 1: I've just thought i'd look through some stats. He was 230 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 1: a plus twenty six at half time. Wow, Jackson was 231 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 1: Jackson Robinson dude special. 232 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 3: I mean he knows the offense too right, the offense 233 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 3: he's been around Mark Pope. 234 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 1: Not trying to overreact to anything in these two games, 235 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,320 Speaker 1: but what do you go eight for twelve from three 236 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 1: for the game and his shot kind of little Antonio 237 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 1: reeves kind of a little deron, not just with consistency. 238 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: He seems just so calm and cool and collected when 239 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 1: he's letting it go. He's kind of that silent assass 240 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 1: and not even a lot of motion when he makes it. 241 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: But he was huge tonight. He was the game's leading scorer. 242 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 1: What did he finish with? Twenty four points eight of thirteen, 243 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 1: eight of twelve from three, six rebounds, three assists. Billy, 244 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:50,960 Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not even gonna ask for your ballot. 245 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna name him our player of the game. 246 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 1: The Drew Franklin Player of the Game sponsored by Billy 247 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 1: our Sports is Jackson Robinson to. 248 00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 3: Night, Well really him in an Otega away have just 249 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:04,079 Speaker 3: been really pleasant surprises. I mean maybe it shouldn't have been, 250 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:06,560 Speaker 3: since Jackson was an NBA prospect and he has spent 251 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 3: some time in the offense. But those two guys I 252 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 3: could really see driving this team forward. So and think 253 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 3: of this, Drew. In the first half, they shot twenty 254 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 3: four to three pointers and they only shot eleven two pointers. 255 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 3: Now that balanced out a little bit in the second half, 256 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:22,720 Speaker 3: but I mean, live and die by the three. Get 257 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:23,679 Speaker 3: ready for it this year. 258 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, their last six field goals of the half all 259 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: threes as they stretched it out, got to a big 260 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 1: lead before halftime. I will say in that run where 261 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 1: it wasn't great early on, some interesting lineups. I know 262 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 1: Pope had to get creative with Mario Williams on the 263 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 1: exercise bike, but at one point we saw our first 264 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 1: real small ball and it's not what anyone expected. I 265 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:48,080 Speaker 1: think he had Lamont Butler, Kobe, Bria, Colin Chandler, Trent Noah, 266 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 1: and Ansley Almanor. Then Otega checks in for Almanor, which 267 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:55,320 Speaker 1: makes them even smaller, and Brian was defending the paint 268 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,840 Speaker 1: on defense. I mean, he's said eleven, but I don't know, 269 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 1: what do you think of that small It was interesting 270 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 1: scene out there. They immediately gave up an open three. 271 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: It didn't last long, but I guess when you're big man, 272 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 1: you're a three time Defensive Player of the Year starter 273 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:09,319 Speaker 1: is sideline with an injury, you got to make do 274 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:09,720 Speaker 1: how you can. 275 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:11,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm okay with it. I mean this is the 276 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:14,840 Speaker 3: game to try those type of things. So I'm actually glad. 277 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 3: I'm not glad that Mari Williams got hurt, but I'm 278 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,560 Speaker 3: glad that it forced this team into some situations that 279 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:21,719 Speaker 3: maybe they weren't prepared to play in, and so they 280 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,560 Speaker 3: have some things to work on. Is Kobe brea kind 281 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 3: of the odd man out? If otega Oway is playing 282 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 3: well at the two. 283 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 1: I'm not again not doing any overreacting, however, would love 284 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 1: to see a little more from him. Yeah, athletically, I 285 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 1: think he's just limited, is what it is. But what 286 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:39,560 Speaker 1: did he shoot tonight? 287 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 4: Well? 288 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 1: For yeah, the ball the three wasn't following it if 289 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 1: he's not hitting threes. 290 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's two of eight from the field, one to five. 291 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:49,079 Speaker 1: From yeah, one, five from three. I saw the Evan Maya. 292 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 1: Is that how you pronounce that guy's name. He's kind 293 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 1: of like a new stats guy coming up? Yeah? Is 294 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:53,199 Speaker 1: that ring a bell? 295 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:53,480 Speaker 5: No? 296 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:54,080 Speaker 3: Not sure? 297 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:57,199 Speaker 1: Okay, Well, earlier this week he put out the expected 298 00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:00,520 Speaker 1: three point field goal percentage for everyone in college back basketball, 299 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,320 Speaker 1: and he had Kobe number one, like forty nine percent 300 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 1: with a pretty significant lead. But one for five. Not 301 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:09,199 Speaker 1: a great shooting night for him. I said, want to 302 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:10,439 Speaker 1: get a lot more out of him, and it was 303 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:12,440 Speaker 1: just interesting seeing him play the paint a little bit. 304 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 1: But I guess had to do what they had to do. 305 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:15,959 Speaker 3: I'll bring up one guy for you before we need 306 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 3: to take a break. And starting to get some of 307 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 3: these breaks calls. 308 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 1: You got her mind to do these things. 309 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:23,199 Speaker 3: With Amari Williams going out. Brandon Garrison man twelve points. 310 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:25,600 Speaker 3: He obviously had the dunk of the night late in 311 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 3: the game, had a couple of good passes too. That's 312 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:30,319 Speaker 3: a guy that's probably gonna get some more playing time. 313 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 1: Don't you think why did number five jump? 314 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:33,720 Speaker 6: Dude? 315 00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 1: You gotta know you're in Reperena playing a D one team. 316 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 1: This is Kentucky. You don't want to be on a poster. 317 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 1: Or maybe he wanted to be on a poster. 318 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, he could frame it, put it in his house. 319 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:44,439 Speaker 3: I played a Reperena. But there was also a sequence 320 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 3: where he drove the length of the court, thought he 321 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 3: was gonna have an easy lay up. 322 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:48,560 Speaker 1: He missed it. 323 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 3: Man, I think the whole bench wanted that one to 324 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 3: go in. But I was encouraged by what I saw 325 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:53,600 Speaker 3: from him as well. 326 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:55,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, the dunk was the play of the game that 327 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 1: Coast to Coast could have been the second player of 328 00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 1: the game. He ended up with twelve point six to 329 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:01,959 Speaker 1: nine from the field. Looks like about four rebounds. He's 330 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 1: got really good hands. We think of Williams as the 331 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 1: good passer, but Garrison, he's got some flashing, some pass 332 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 1: and he looks very comfortable inside, kind of finished with 333 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 1: both hands. The three pointer though, let's just keep that 334 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:16,800 Speaker 1: in the bag. Maybe, man, you gotta try it. You 335 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:19,520 Speaker 1: gotta let one fly. One was enough. He went over 336 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,960 Speaker 1: to last week against Wesleyan, h missed one tonight. Overall, 337 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 1: a good game for Garrison though, filling in for Williams, who, 338 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 1: as we noted, will hopefully be back soon.

That actually reminds me 378 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 1: of a story from tonight that I don't know if I 379 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:06,240 Speaker 1: should sound radio, but here we are. What time is it? 380 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 1: Ten to ten? That's fine next to the rock Castle 381 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 1: County Middle School basketball folks. After they headed down, there 382 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 1: were still a few people up in. 383 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 3: Sexual couple up there with their binoculars. 384 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:17,440 Speaker 1: Older man comes up to me. I sit right on 385 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 1: the edge of press row up there. He grabs a 386 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:21,320 Speaker 1: hold of my arm. Kind of startled a little bit. 387 00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 1: I'm sitting there, I'm on k is board typing, and 388 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 1: now I got this guy hold my arm and he 389 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 1: looks at me. He says, Drew took a gummy before 390 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 1: I got here. I don't know if we're higher up 391 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,200 Speaker 1: here or if I'm higher up here, and tapped on 392 00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 1: his head. And that was our conversation. So I hope 393 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 1: that man got home safely. I hope he had a 394 00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:37,200 Speaker 1: good time at the game. 395 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 3: Oh wow, that exhibition games at Reperena. You never know. 396 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't encourage that, but that happened. Let's go 397 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 1: to the phone lines. 398 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 3: All right, let's start it off with Josh. 399 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 1: Josh, thanks for calling in. Did you enjoy the game? 400 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 7: Oh? 401 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:51,600 Speaker 2: Man, yeah, how are y'all? 402 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:53,760 Speaker 1: We are excellent. What would you like to talk about? 403 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 8: Well, I really enjoyed not hearing the coach on the 404 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:01,600 Speaker 8: sideline screen go the entire time. I don't know if 405 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 8: you've noticed that, but like on the TV, well, I 406 00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 8: guess you've been in the game, but on TV broadcast 407 00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:10,120 Speaker 8: you don't hear him scrimming go the entire time. You 408 00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:11,680 Speaker 8: don't hear him at all, And it's awesome. 409 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:14,720 Speaker 1: Not a lot of goes. Seems to be a lot 410 00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 1: more encouragement, a little positive reinforcement. I don't get close 411 00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:22,080 Speaker 1: enough to actually hear the pope antics. As Billy just noted, 412 00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:25,320 Speaker 1: they look fun down there, but it is a different experience. 413 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 1: He crashed Brandon Garrison's interview afterwards, had fun there. As 414 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,360 Speaker 1: we mentioned before, it took his shoes off in the 415 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 1: press conference to show off those new Devin Bookers. It's 416 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 1: just a different experience with Pope out there. 417 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:38,120 Speaker 9: Oh yeah, like. 418 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:42,000 Speaker 8: I've been watching. I watched both ends on the computer, 419 00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 8: as Matt says, and I have not heard him yell 420 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 8: one time. And it's awesome, refreshing, like I'm here for it. 421 00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 8: I'm here for a bit of it and I love it. 422 00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 1: Well, we appreciate that call. You know, there's not a 423 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 1: lot of yelling to do when you win ninety eight 424 00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 1: sixty seven. Billy might have yelled a little bit in 425 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 1: that first stretch, but there might be days where Pope 426 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:02,960 Speaker 1: has to turn up the yelling. 427 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:05,720 Speaker 3: Yes, and we kind of talked about this off the air, 428 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:08,440 Speaker 3: but probably a good idea that Pope doesn't pull somebody 429 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 3: from the crowd during his postgame press conference every time, 430 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:13,960 Speaker 3: you know, maybe somebody's taking a gummy, maybe asked the 431 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:16,360 Speaker 3: wrong thing once or twice. So while that was a 432 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:19,200 Speaker 3: great gesture the first game, we may not see that again. 433 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 1: I did enjoy that, and when I asked you if 434 00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:23,440 Speaker 1: that was going to be a routine, you did note 435 00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:26,080 Speaker 1: that putting random strangers from the crowd on the radio 436 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 1: is not something that the UK sportswear. 437 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 3: To get all button with the dump buttons there, but 438 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:35,320 Speaker 3: everybody at Reparina would still hear everything that's going out. 439 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 3: But this has been a lot of a fun start 440 00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:39,440 Speaker 3: to that Mark Pope era. That's no doubt. 441 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 1: I did catch a little bit of his postgame stuff. 442 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 1: He said, wasn't the prettiest game we've ever played when 443 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:46,400 Speaker 1: they went two for eleven from three though, he said 444 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:49,440 Speaker 1: he what nervous, said, that's gonna happen. Yeah, he said 445 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:51,479 Speaker 1: fans were panicking a little bit, but that'll happen from 446 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 1: time to time. Also called out offensive rebounding, says that 447 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:57,400 Speaker 1: needs to improve. And then, of course, the Amari Williams 448 00:17:57,520 --> 00:17:59,200 Speaker 1: update we gave earlier was the biggest news at a 449 00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:01,959 Speaker 1: Pope's press conference. Williams will get some X rays, but 450 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 1: Pope's pretty optimistic that he'll see him again soon. Who 451 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:06,880 Speaker 1: will we see again soon? On the phone line, Billy, 452 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:09,359 Speaker 1: how about UK Greg? It's a great name. How you doing, 453 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 1: UK Greg? 454 00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 10: Hey man, it's such an honored to Bill. On the 455 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:16,879 Speaker 10: Drew Franklin postgame Show. Remember Chevrolet gets you there and 456 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:20,120 Speaker 10: Toyota get you home? Hey, two things real quick, Drew, 457 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 10: how about that dunk Perry Stevenson, Like, I mean, he 458 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:27,800 Speaker 10: just come down the lane and he just threw it down. 459 00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 1: Garrison did, loved it, loved it. That was our play 460 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:32,880 Speaker 1: of the game. We were just wondering why anyone would 461 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:35,280 Speaker 1: jump and try to defend that, but that young man 462 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 1: number five from Minnesota will now have a photo he 463 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:39,640 Speaker 1: can show his kids later in life. 464 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:42,639 Speaker 10: Hey, and on one of the questions, I don't know 465 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:44,399 Speaker 10: if you know this or not, and I don't know 466 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:48,160 Speaker 10: it just my son just said it to me. Chrisa 467 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:50,639 Speaker 10: having his first name on the back of his jersey. 468 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,120 Speaker 10: You think it's a European thing to where a lot 469 00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 10: of socker guys do that. I mean, that's pretty interesting. 470 00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:57,160 Speaker 3: It is. 471 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 1: We appreciate the call. I can't remember remember seeing that 472 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:04,440 Speaker 1: in college basketball. Someone told me, I'm trying to get 473 00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:07,880 Speaker 1: evidence here. Adam Luckett chimed in that said, yeah, here 474 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:09,840 Speaker 1: it is. There's a picture. He did it at Arizona too. 475 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:10,600 Speaker 3: Oh he did. 476 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:12,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, So Kerr's going with his first name on the 477 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 1: back of the jersey. Didn't know you had an option. 478 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 1: I thought it just had to be your last name. 479 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 1: Could be European. Also, it's weird seeing the number seventy 480 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:20,280 Speaker 1: seven on the basketball. 481 00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 3: Court the white head band too. He is just his 482 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:25,720 Speaker 3: own animal and I absolutely love it. He hit a 483 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:28,439 Speaker 3: three at the end of the first half and probably 484 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:30,240 Speaker 3: the reason why he didn't see a lot of Travis. 485 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,639 Speaker 1: Perry That's exactly why we didn't see a lot of 486 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 1: Travis Perry Kerr did not play against Wesleyan. He had 487 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 1: a tweaked hamstring. Was a game time decision. I thought 488 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:42,200 Speaker 1: they might even hold him out just you know, it's 489 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 1: an exhibition game. We'll get him next week. But no, 490 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 1: he checked in early, played a lot, six assists, zero turnovers, 491 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 1: but like that had a beautiful no look past to 492 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:51,840 Speaker 1: Andrew Carr for a dunk. 493 00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:54,000 Speaker 3: So is he like the closest to lance Ware on 494 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:57,920 Speaker 3: the roster than anybody as like in that enforcer role, 495 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,639 Speaker 3: like get under your skin, get a tech foul. 496 00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 1: I think we're going to learn that he is one 497 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 1: of a county. I don't think there are going to 498 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:08,320 Speaker 1: be any comparisons. Yeah, he's not gonna play defense like 499 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:11,480 Speaker 1: Lamont Butler, but his defense is get up under your chin, 500 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:15,439 Speaker 1: take charges, clap in your face, taunt you, annoy you 501 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 1: to death.

Hey? 568 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:40,199 Speaker 2: Good listen. 569 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:44,199 Speaker 12: It sure is nice to be able to listen to 570 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 12: all the post game shows incoming to KSR. I couldn't 571 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:51,480 Speaker 12: stay and listen for the last few years because for 572 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 12: certain reasons. But it's good to have you all on. 573 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:56,160 Speaker 12: I enjoy what you're doing. I want to talk about 574 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 12: the key of this team, and I think you're gonna 575 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:01,679 Speaker 12: agree with me. I think it's Lamon Butler. What a 576 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:06,200 Speaker 12: beast on defense? I mean, boy Guard's emotion, boorant things. 577 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 12: You know, he gets hands on ball, goes through screens. 578 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 12: What do you think about that? 579 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:14,199 Speaker 1: I think you said exactly what I'm thinking, and I 580 00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:17,560 Speaker 1: appreciate that call. I love Lamon Butler. I think I'm 581 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:19,199 Speaker 1: still gonna go with the mari Williams will be my 582 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 1: favorite player. Just got a little soft spot for Mario Williams. 583 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:26,280 Speaker 1: But Lamont Butler is gonna be special defensively, we're talking 584 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:28,639 Speaker 1: going back to Rondo and even Rondo, we're kind of 585 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:30,639 Speaker 1: looking at what he was in the NBA. He was 586 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:34,880 Speaker 1: even flawed at college. But Mark Pope said on KSR 587 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:36,960 Speaker 1: earlier this summer, I think his words were, I don't 588 00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 1: lose sleep over guarding sec guards. And when he said it, 589 00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 1: I was like, well, you know, a little word about defense. 590 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:45,040 Speaker 1: If he's saying it, maybe it's good. But after just 591 00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:49,800 Speaker 1: watching Lamont Butler, knowing his past as an all defensive 592 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:53,800 Speaker 1: player in his conference, he is incredible. Yeah, steals records 593 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:55,240 Speaker 1: in Jeopardy. That's what I was about to say. 594 00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:58,439 Speaker 3: I mean, Rondo, watch out that steels record might be 595 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:01,920 Speaker 3: in Jeopardy. And he is just phenomenal. He really is, 596 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:03,880 Speaker 3: and with the experience that he has, I'm sure that's 597 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:07,119 Speaker 3: helping the group a lot. Plays without fear and is 598 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:10,439 Speaker 3: somebody that could absolutely be the key. Sam on Twitter 599 00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:12,440 Speaker 3: wanted me to mention to you that Lamont Butler ended 600 00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 3: with a plus forty one. 601 00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:17,199 Speaker 1: That's nuts. It's not just the steals too, he just 602 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:19,639 Speaker 1: he's got the lateral quickness and the strength to just 603 00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 1: cut you off. You're not going anywhere, so I mean Kentucky. 604 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 1: We'll see what the defense is going to be. I think, 605 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:27,640 Speaker 1: I think we all think that can be a weakness 606 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:30,879 Speaker 1: at times, but there are many guards that are on 607 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 1: that Lamont Butler's matched up with that are going to 608 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:35,760 Speaker 1: have a good night. They'll be mismatched throughout the season. 609 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:37,639 Speaker 1: I think Cooper flag is gonna be a big problem 610 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 1: in that dude game. But I trust Lamon Butler guarding 611 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 1: a lot of people. He is going to be special defensively. 612 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 1: He is special defensively and then keeping his turnovers down, 613 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 1: having the assists. We'll see what that looks like as 614 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:49,760 Speaker 1: the competition gets better on the offensive end. But that 615 00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:51,120 Speaker 1: defense is going to show up nightly. 616 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:53,199 Speaker 3: Let's take one call and then I think it's down. 617 00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:55,359 Speaker 1: Thank you for letting me, Thank you for holding my 618 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 1: hand through this. Who's next? 619 00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:57,960 Speaker 3: George? Hello, George? 620 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 7: Hey? 621 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:04,800 Speaker 5: So one thing I saw tonight, Actually, I guess I 622 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 5: heard coach Pope after the game saying we earn all 623 00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:12,399 Speaker 5: the baskets we get, and then he went right into 624 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 5: player analysis. And I can't wait for that season for 625 00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 5: a coach that looked at the plections and everything else, 626 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:22,560 Speaker 5: and he's looking at the numbers and that's what he's 627 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 5: going to coach. I'm very excited about that. 628 00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:27,679 Speaker 1: I'm excited about that too. I'm not going to do 629 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:30,600 Speaker 1: too much looking backwards tonight, where we're looking forwards and 630 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:33,560 Speaker 1: about what happened in that game, but the the answers 631 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 1: and press conferences and explanations of what happens in the game, 632 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:39,120 Speaker 1: they're a lot clear. In the past, it was Hey, 633 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:40,719 Speaker 1: how so and so play tonight, Well let me tell 634 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:42,679 Speaker 1: you about this other person. Well that's not what we 635 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:44,879 Speaker 1: asked about. But you know, we're getting a lot of 636 00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:46,960 Speaker 1: What I. 637 00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:49,199 Speaker 5: Meant was that he's going to take those numbers and 638 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:51,800 Speaker 5: go forward and be an analytical coach. I'm very excited 639 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:52,199 Speaker 5: about that. 640 00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I appreciate the calls about to add to 641 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:56,920 Speaker 1: that too. And he is letting you know the game plan. 642 00:25:57,040 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 1: He's letting you know what their plan was coming in before. 643 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:03,200 Speaker 1: Even Andrew Carr in his interview yesterday just so detailed 644 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:05,800 Speaker 1: in the other team what UK is trying to do. 645 00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:08,639 Speaker 1: Pope and this staff has given them so much information 646 00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:12,679 Speaker 1: and so many analytics. I think the biggest difference in 647 00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 1: the change it's made is the preparation for these games. 648 00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:17,280 Speaker 1: Now they obviously have to do that to overcompensate. They 649 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:19,800 Speaker 1: don't have the athleticism of past teams, and they you know, 650 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 1: different here and different there. But I think the biggest 651 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:24,480 Speaker 1: difference where they'll find success is just how prepared and 652 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:25,840 Speaker 1: how much information these guys have. 653 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:28,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I'm sure a little probably a little overwhelming 654 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:30,639 Speaker 3: at first trying to learn a new offense like that. 655 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:34,480 Speaker 3: Jackson Robinson's alongside to help with that, but seems like 656 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:37,200 Speaker 3: they're starting to even now starting to get comfortable, and 657 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 3: Mark Pope was very candid about what they needed to 658 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:43,440 Speaker 3: work on, especially rebounding in the offensive glass. So it's 659 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:45,000 Speaker 3: night and day, there's no doubt about that. 660 00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:47,480 Speaker 1: Combined in our last talking points, I just remembered Carr 661 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:49,639 Speaker 1: had a good quote on Lam Butler in those interviews 662 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:53,120 Speaker 1: yesterday about his defense. He said, he's a dog. He's 663 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 1: an amazing defender.

And who do you think 893 00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:10,840 Speaker 4: is going to guard Cooper flag? And I'll hear your 894 00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:11,719 Speaker 4: guys thoughts on that. 895 00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:14,120 Speaker 1: Thank you, We appreciate your first call. That is a 896 00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:16,440 Speaker 1: great question, and that is one I've been thinking about often. 897 00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:19,080 Speaker 1: Billy Cooper flag is going to be a bit of 898 00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:21,759 Speaker 1: a problem for the Cats. I'm not like a lot 899 00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:24,600 Speaker 1: of the fan base who's just surrendering that game to Duke. 900 00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 1: We know people in our lives, some even on our 901 00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:29,680 Speaker 1: radio show, they just think the Cats are in trouble 902 00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:32,120 Speaker 1: in that game. I think the Cats have a good chance, 903 00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:34,880 Speaker 1: but Cooper flag, no doubt, will be a problem. To 904 00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:38,600 Speaker 1: answer his question, you put Laman on him. 905 00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:40,719 Speaker 3: I mean he's six eight versus six to two. 906 00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:45,120 Speaker 1: I know Lamon's got guards to lockdown. Duke's got three 907 00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:47,880 Speaker 1: top fifteen picks in the latest mock draft, so Lamont 908 00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:51,279 Speaker 1: will have his own price. I mean, I've heard of 909 00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:53,520 Speaker 1: Mari Williams mentioned, but the way he can stretch it 910 00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:56,200 Speaker 1: out and his athleticism, I don't know, Like you said, 911 00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:58,799 Speaker 1: he's six ' nine two o five. Maybe Otega can 912 00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:01,040 Speaker 1: hang with him. It's it's honestly going to be a 913 00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:03,759 Speaker 1: team effort. But I mean, that's the that's the big 914 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:07,040 Speaker 1: question marking that dude game. I don't hate the matchup overall, 915 00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:09,720 Speaker 1: and I think Kentucky will be in that Cooper flag. 916 00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:11,680 Speaker 1: That dude was a robot that was made in the laboratory, 917 00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:13,840 Speaker 1: projected number one pick, and it's just going to be 918 00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:14,440 Speaker 1: a mismatch. 919 00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:16,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, I've been hearing a lot about that guy. 920 00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:17,920 Speaker 1: He's from Maine. 921 00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:19,440 Speaker 3: You were just in May. 922 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:22,560 Speaker 1: I was just, what's weird having an elite basketball player 923 00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:24,040 Speaker 1: from Maine.

But my 927 00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:33,960 Speaker 1: my lobster history, my crimes. 928 00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:36,040 Speaker 3: Your crimes against the Lobsters. 929 00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:37,400 Speaker 1: Listen to this.

And I think that's a nice 950 00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:27,960 Speaker 13: change of pace. You know, I'll happily trade some of 951 00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:30,320 Speaker 13: the superstar guys that we've had in the past for 952 00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:33,160 Speaker 13: just a team that can go out there and when 953 00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 13: it's not the shots aren't falling, can actually, you know, 954 00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:37,879 Speaker 13: work through that.

I think you nailed. 956 00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:43,080 Speaker 1: It's a combination of the experience guys who are coaching 957 00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:45,160 Speaker 1: boll It's not freshmen that are just getting here. They're 958 00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:47,840 Speaker 1: a wide eyed there Kentucky. They're looking at the mock drafts. 959 00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:51,080 Speaker 1: You've got guys that have played a lot of basketball, 960 00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:55,440 Speaker 1: and uh, Pope's just got that. That positive energy is 961 00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:57,239 Speaker 1: a lot of It's just his personality just comes out 962 00:38:57,280 --> 00:39:00,759 Speaker 1: as coaching.

That 978 00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:34,600 Speaker 3: was a talking point for Pope early on, wasn't it. 979 00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:37,440 Speaker 1: Pope even motivated me with a quote in one of 980 00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:39,280 Speaker 1: those practice clips we got back in August. 981 00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:41,520 Speaker 3: What he say, do you remember I'm trying to google it. 982 00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:43,440 Speaker 1: So I don't butcher it, because I would definitely butcher it. 983 00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:46,439 Speaker 1: He got like, gratitude is a skill.

We should work on our gratitude. 988 00:39:56,880 --> 00:39:59,080 Speaker 1: That's just an example of Pope. It seems like it's 989 00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:00,840 Speaker 1: a big quote.

Mark Pope got given a unique opportunity and 1031 00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:49,960 Speaker 7: the fact that he had no roster and so the 1032 00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:53,040 Speaker 7: twenty fifteen team was the best team I've ever seen. 1033 00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:57,040 Speaker 7: But Mark Pope got to go out and build a 1034 00:41:57,239 --> 00:42:02,520 Speaker 7: roster where we have a answer for everything. Now, it's 1035 00:42:02,560 --> 00:42:05,880 Speaker 7: not a superstar answer, and there's going to be Knights 1036 00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:10,560 Speaker 7: that we're going to get out talented. But we scored 1037 00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:13,520 Speaker 7: on an mbounce play. We ran an M bound play. 1038 00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:18,600 Speaker 7: I stood up and had a parade in front of 1039 00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:22,360 Speaker 7: my TV. We scored on an nbound play. We did 1040 00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:26,239 Speaker 7: and uh, he has a Swiss army knife of a 1041 00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:31,200 Speaker 7: coachable team because he got to build it, and we 1042 00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:34,480 Speaker 7: have one or two people at every position. Now, they're 1043 00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:37,480 Speaker 7: not superstars, and there's Knights that we're going to get 1044 00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:39,840 Speaker 7: out talented. But I think this is going to be 1045 00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:43,319 Speaker 7: a fun game, fun team to watch. And the other 1046 00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:47,040 Speaker 7: thing is I'm already excited about watching how fun it's 1047 00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:49,520 Speaker 7: going to be to see coach Pope coach this team 1048 00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:52,240 Speaker 7: because he has so many possibilities. 1049 00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:55,680 Speaker 1: Well said Cad Daddy.

I wanted Big z 1061 00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:23,399 Speaker 1: and to do back. I said that when they were 1062 00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:27,200 Speaker 1: considering it, they had a beautiful highlight in Arkansas that 1063 00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:29,399 Speaker 1: I won't why I tugged on my heartstrings a little bit. 1064 00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:33,160 Speaker 1: I wish those two and DJ Wagner the best, not 1065 00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:35,560 Speaker 1: all of the best, I know.

I 1109 00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:29,239 Speaker 14: have seen two full exhibition games and my plate is 1110 00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:33,319 Speaker 14: like twelve players deep. Can you all help direct me 1111 00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:37,239 Speaker 14: in a certain area at all. I mean, who am 1112 00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:39,520 Speaker 14: I going to root for this year? I'm a fan 1113 00:45:39,560 --> 00:45:41,799 Speaker 14: of everybody, and that's not how I usually I am. 1114 00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:44,160 Speaker 1: I'm with you a little bit. I have narrowed it 1115 00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:46,360 Speaker 1: down from twelve. There's twelve people on the team. You 1116 00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:49,080 Speaker 1: do have to chisel out a few to have this conversation. 1117 00:45:49,760 --> 00:45:52,520 Speaker 1: I'm leaning a little towards a Mario Williams from my favorite, 1118 00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:54,960 Speaker 1: not saying he's the best, but I had fun interviewing 1119 00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:58,640 Speaker 1: this summer talking about English Breakfast and the Beatles, and 1120 00:45:58,680 --> 00:46:00,480 Speaker 1: then I love the way he passes and how they're 1121 00:46:00,480 --> 00:46:02,600 Speaker 1: going to run the offense of the high post with him, 1122 00:46:02,880 --> 00:46:05,120 Speaker 1: and what he brings defensively. I hope he gets back. 1123 00:46:05,200 --> 00:46:07,440 Speaker 1: So I'm not committed to Mary Williams. I'm leaning that 1124 00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:09,879 Speaker 1: way a little bit. But I mean, Laman Butler would 1125 00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:11,480 Speaker 1: be a good pick. I think Kerr we haven't seen 1126 00:46:11,520 --> 00:46:13,480 Speaker 1: enough of him yet. He'll be a good pick. Jackson 1127 00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:16,359 Speaker 1: Robinson looks like Klay Thompson. He could be a good pick. 1128 00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:17,480 Speaker 1: You have so many options. 1129 00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:21,560 Speaker 14: Well, I figure Robinson is like an automatics in the NBA. 1130 00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:23,600 Speaker 14: So I kind of want to root for someone that 1131 00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:27,040 Speaker 14: maybe won't like be like a top like a first 1132 00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:30,920 Speaker 14: round pick or something. So I'm like, definitely, Butler, I 1133 00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:33,920 Speaker 14: mean he's got to be in there. But Garrison, I 1134 00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:38,200 Speaker 14: mean there's like there's like ten guys that's like there's 1135 00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:40,759 Speaker 14: gonna be so much fun to root for. I don't 1136 00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:42,520 Speaker 14: know where it's going to go, and I just want 1137 00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:45,799 Speaker 14: you guys to know real quick. I'm going to be 1138 00:46:45,960 --> 00:46:50,440 Speaker 14: rectifying a wrong to make it a right because I 1139 00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:54,839 Speaker 14: think that Billy winning the haybell tossing contest this year 1140 00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:58,280 Speaker 14: was amazing. I'm going to call in on Monday morning 1141 00:46:58,320 --> 00:47:01,719 Speaker 14: to the pregame show, and at some point from like 1142 00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:06,120 Speaker 14: Tuesday to Friday, we will be making that a huge, 1143 00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:09,759 Speaker 14: a huge sports story because it deserves its spotlight. I 1144 00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:12,120 Speaker 14: don't think it was given that because I think Matt 1145 00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:14,520 Speaker 14: kind of like wanted to overlook it. But we're going 1146 00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:17,600 Speaker 14: to bring that back to the forefront.

In the first three years of 1182 00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:45,720 Speaker 9: the Lexington Legends baseball team. He and I worked together 1183 00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:47,680 Speaker 9: in the makers Mark Club. He was kind of a 1184 00:48:47,719 --> 00:48:50,319 Speaker 9: manager over seeing. I was the bartender in there, and 1185 00:48:51,200 --> 00:48:53,880 Speaker 9: great guy. Brought back a lot of great memories of 1186 00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:55,719 Speaker 9: getting to hang out with him and getting to hear 1187 00:48:55,800 --> 00:48:59,680 Speaker 9: him tell old UK stories and even get to play 1188 00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:01,719 Speaker 9: a few rounds of golf with that guy. He's just 1189 00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:04,920 Speaker 9: He's an amazing guy with a lot of UK history 1190 00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:07,360 Speaker 9: and hearing you say that brought back a lot of 1191 00:49:07,360 --> 00:49:08,480 Speaker 9: great memories, like. 1192 00:49:08,440 --> 00:49:10,600 Speaker 1: The shout out I read his book, Blonde Bomber or 1193 00:49:10,680 --> 00:49:13,279 Speaker 1: Ride was shot one of my best friends, his dad, 1194 00:49:13,840 --> 00:49:16,239 Speaker 1: Bobby bird Townsend. Shout out to Bobby bird Townsend. I 1195 00:49:16,280 --> 00:49:19,719 Speaker 1: asked him his UK Mount Rushmore last year at the 1196 00:49:19,760 --> 00:49:23,040 Speaker 1: North Carolina Kentucky game in Atlanta. We're just hanging out afterwards, 1197 00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:26,120 Speaker 1: just you know, boys chats. He had Jay Schadler in 1198 00:49:26,160 --> 00:49:32,560 Speaker 1: his all time Mount Rushmore. I thought that was pretty unique. 1199 00:49:34,560 --> 00:49:37,360 Speaker 9: And some of the stories he regaled to me about 1200 00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:42,439 Speaker 9: UK basketball. You know, I wasn't alive when they were 1201 00:49:43,360 --> 00:49:45,879 Speaker 9: putting their little run together, but man, hearing him tell 1202 00:49:45,920 --> 00:49:49,520 Speaker 9: stories about all those old x UK guys and Joe 1203 00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:53,200 Speaker 9: b it was pretty great and I'm very thankful for 1204 00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:54,400 Speaker 9: that time in my life. 1205 00:49:54,520 --> 00:49:56,000 Speaker 1: All Right, Glad you could share that. Do you have 1206 00:49:56,000 --> 00:49:57,960 Speaker 1: anything you want to share about the game. They're just 1207 00:49:58,000 --> 00:49:58,720 Speaker 1: a blonde bomber. 1208 00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:00,920 Speaker 9: Yeah. I tell you one thing that I was really 1209 00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:05,000 Speaker 9: impressed about that nobody's really brought up yet is every 1210 00:50:05,120 --> 00:50:07,880 Speaker 9: game I'm more and more impressed with Colin Chandler, not 1211 00:50:08,040 --> 00:50:11,719 Speaker 9: only his athleticism, but the guy has got some handles. 1212 00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:14,920 Speaker 9: I mean, he took some guys off the perimeter tonight, 1213 00:50:15,760 --> 00:50:17,880 Speaker 9: of whether it led to an assist or him scoring 1214 00:50:17,920 --> 00:50:21,040 Speaker 9: a bucket, and I thought, Wow, this kid's got some potential. 1215 00:50:21,640 --> 00:50:23,800 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I completely agree. He had a couple flashy 1216 00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:27,359 Speaker 1: assists tonight in the second half, seven points, two and five. 1217 00:50:27,400 --> 00:50:29,160 Speaker 1: His three point shot wasn't falling. I think he went 1218 00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:31,160 Speaker 1: one for four there. But there's a lot of potential 1219 00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:33,200 Speaker 1: with him, especially for a guy that's just coming back 1220 00:50:33,200 --> 00:50:35,040 Speaker 1: from two years off from basketball. 1221 00:50:36,560 --> 00:50:39,200 Speaker 9: Yeah. Even though that three point SHOT's not falling just yet. 1222 00:50:39,239 --> 00:50:41,920 Speaker 9: He's got good form and I think that's gonna come around. 1223 00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:44,440 Speaker 9: And I think his athleticism overall is going give him 1224 00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:47,040 Speaker 9: some playing time this year at certain points when we 1225 00:50:47,080 --> 00:50:49,120 Speaker 9: need it, we need a little spark off the bench. 1226 00:50:49,200 --> 00:50:51,439 Speaker 9: And I'm really impressed with his overall game. 1227 00:50:51,840 --> 00:50:54,480 Speaker 1: Me too, I agree, and I appreciate the call. He 1228 00:50:55,160 --> 00:50:57,440 Speaker 1: hasn't really flashed in the two exhibitions, but in the 1229 00:50:57,440 --> 00:51:00,040 Speaker 1: Blue White game, that shot was falling, Billy, and he 1230 00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:02,799 Speaker 1: dunked on somebody's head. So I think the Blue White 1231 00:51:02,840 --> 00:51:06,080 Speaker 1: preseason event was the biggest moment for Chandler. He's I 1232 00:51:06,080 --> 00:51:07,960 Speaker 1: don't know where he'll fit in because there's so many 1233 00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:10,080 Speaker 1: pieces kind of in that similar position, a lot of guys, 1234 00:51:10,120 --> 00:51:12,640 Speaker 1: a lot of minutes, and I think Pope's gonna share 1235 00:51:12,680 --> 00:51:14,640 Speaker 1: as much as he can with all those guys. But 1236 00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:17,600 Speaker 1: Chandler looking to the long term, that dude's a player. Yeah. 1237 00:51:17,800 --> 00:51:20,080 Speaker 3: I think many thought there may be a little rust, 1238 00:51:20,520 --> 00:51:22,840 Speaker 3: but there's a reason why this guy was such a 1239 00:51:22,880 --> 00:51:25,640 Speaker 3: highly rated recruit coming out of high school. And you know, 1240 00:51:25,680 --> 00:51:28,359 Speaker 3: who knows. He may play his way into some playing time, 1241 00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:30,000 Speaker 3: but that's a guy that could develop and be a 1242 00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:32,359 Speaker 3: pretty good player at the next level. Maybe one day. 1243 00:51:32,560 --> 00:51:35,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, speaking of developing, Trent Noah's playing a lot of minutes. 1244 00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:36,840 Speaker 3: Can we talk about him for a second, because you 1245 00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:39,040 Speaker 3: guys were talking about like favorite players, and I keep 1246 00:51:39,080 --> 00:51:40,960 Speaker 3: thinking he's not going to be a factor, and then 1247 00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:43,399 Speaker 3: he does what he does in the first exhibition game. 1248 00:51:43,440 --> 00:51:45,319 Speaker 3: He hits a three to start the big run in 1249 00:51:45,360 --> 00:51:47,960 Speaker 3: the first half in tonight's game. And while they may 1250 00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:50,000 Speaker 3: be exhibition games, you know him coming out to the 1251 00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:53,400 Speaker 3: Harlan song, and I don't know, I'm really liking me 1252 00:51:53,520 --> 00:51:57,279 Speaker 3: a little Trent Noah and little Travis Perry as well. 1253 00:51:57,280 --> 00:52:00,640 Speaker 1: Listen, Trent Noah doesn't need any more fans because half 1254 00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:04,080 Speaker 1: of Reperena is for me. S Kentucky cheering for number nine. 1255 00:52:04,160 --> 00:52:07,239 Speaker 1: I can't. He has a long line of fans due 1256 00:52:07,280 --> 00:52:09,280 Speaker 1: to his hometown. 1257 00:52:09,480 --> 00:52:11,959 Speaker 3: That's great to hear. I like having these Kentucky guys 1258 00:52:11,960 --> 00:52:13,960 Speaker 3: on the roster. There's no doubt he's another one. His 1259 00:52:14,320 --> 00:52:16,239 Speaker 3: numbers throwing me off. I'm not used to it. He's 1260 00:52:16,320 --> 00:52:16,839 Speaker 3: number nine. 1261 00:52:16,920 --> 00:52:19,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, we all know why. Also adding to his uh 1262 00:52:20,480 --> 00:52:22,120 Speaker 1: him been a fan favorite, but like this is the 1263 00:52:22,120 --> 00:52:24,319 Speaker 1: first year you can wear numbers above five, and it's 1264 00:52:24,360 --> 00:52:27,200 Speaker 1: just it's weird seeing nine out there and Andrew Carr 1265 00:52:27,239 --> 00:52:29,480 Speaker 1: number seven and Kirk Crease at number seventy seven. Take 1266 00:52:29,560 --> 00:52:31,040 Speaker 1: us some getting used to, but we'll see him on 1267 00:52:31,040 --> 00:52:31,520 Speaker 1: the court a lot. 1268 00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:33,319 Speaker 3: We got any more calls, now, we got three more 1269 00:52:33,360 --> 00:52:35,560 Speaker 3: and we'll end it. Ian is next. 1270 00:52:36,040 --> 00:52:37,080 Speaker 1: Ian, thanks for calling in. 1271 00:52:39,960 --> 00:52:43,400 Speaker 6: Drew West Kentucky shout out. I love having you on 1272 00:52:43,560 --> 00:52:48,120 Speaker 6: here because, uh, it's just it's it's just a shout 1273 00:52:48,200 --> 00:52:51,200 Speaker 6: to the western end of the state. One of these 1274 00:52:51,280 --> 00:52:54,680 Speaker 6: days you're gonna have an old man postgame show at 1275 00:52:54,719 --> 00:52:58,560 Speaker 6: at Farrells and either Madisonville or Kadi's or somewhere and 1276 00:52:58,600 --> 00:53:02,400 Speaker 6: you're just Madison. It's gonna to be it's gonna be yeah, Okay, 1277 00:53:02,440 --> 00:53:06,239 Speaker 6: well that'd be good. But the thing that I was 1278 00:53:06,280 --> 00:53:11,080 Speaker 6: impressed about tonight was that we did not look good 1279 00:53:11,160 --> 00:53:14,960 Speaker 6: in the first quarter, and we looked out of sorts, 1280 00:53:15,080 --> 00:53:18,799 Speaker 6: and yet when we came out of the quarter, we 1281 00:53:18,800 --> 00:53:21,680 Speaker 6: were still up. We weren't down fifteen points, and we 1282 00:53:21,680 --> 00:53:24,920 Speaker 6: didn't have to come back from from a bad start. 1283 00:53:25,320 --> 00:53:27,680 Speaker 6: We looked, we looked out of sorts, and yet we 1284 00:53:27,680 --> 00:53:30,359 Speaker 6: were still ahead. Does that make sense from from from 1285 00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:32,840 Speaker 6: what we've been from the past couple of years, like 1286 00:53:32,840 --> 00:53:37,000 Speaker 6: like we we we weren't playing great, but yet we 1287 00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:40,800 Speaker 6: were still playing good. And I am so happy about 1288 00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:45,600 Speaker 6: that and where we are and I'm just so I 1289 00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:49,000 Speaker 6: can't I can't explain how happy I'm about where we 1290 00:53:49,040 --> 00:53:52,319 Speaker 6: are right now as a program, and I can't wait 1291 00:53:52,320 --> 00:53:53,000 Speaker 6: to be Duke. 1292 00:53:54,000 --> 00:53:55,799 Speaker 1: Love the call. We appreciate it, and you don't have 1293 00:53:55,840 --> 00:53:57,680 Speaker 1: to explain how happy you are because a lot of 1294 00:53:57,719 --> 00:54:00,400 Speaker 1: us are feeling that feeling. We're all very happy. And 1295 00:54:00,440 --> 00:54:04,440 Speaker 1: you're right about the slow start again. I love winning 1296 00:54:04,440 --> 00:54:06,040 Speaker 1: by one hundred, but that could be good for him. 1297 00:54:06,080 --> 00:54:08,120 Speaker 1: They had to learn how to play with Autamar Williams. 1298 00:54:08,160 --> 00:54:09,759 Speaker 1: We don't want him by getting hurt, but it was 1299 00:54:09,800 --> 00:54:11,239 Speaker 1: good for them to have to see what that's like. 1300 00:54:11,320 --> 00:54:15,040 Speaker 1: Hopefully he's back soon, Pope said, he's optimistic. It's twenty 1301 00:54:15,080 --> 00:54:17,760 Speaker 1: to twenty two, you give up a three to almost 1302 00:54:17,760 --> 00:54:19,560 Speaker 1: go down. Luckily it clings out, but then you go 1303 00:54:19,600 --> 00:54:21,799 Speaker 1: in a halftime it's forty three to twenty three. I mean, 1304 00:54:21,800 --> 00:54:25,080 Speaker 1: they had that eighteen oh run just completely lit them up, 1305 00:54:25,080 --> 00:54:26,920 Speaker 1: and I think showing that adversity would be good for him. 1306 00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:29,279 Speaker 3: Well, yeah, just showing something that you can work on. 1307 00:54:29,360 --> 00:54:32,239 Speaker 3: Now Pope has some numbers, he's got some film. He 1308 00:54:32,239 --> 00:54:34,040 Speaker 3: can teach the guys for another week and then you 1309 00:54:34,120 --> 00:54:36,359 Speaker 3: hit the ground running because we're less than a week 1310 00:54:36,360 --> 00:54:37,640 Speaker 3: away from the season starting. 1311 00:54:38,160 --> 00:54:40,440 Speaker 1: The shots that we were taking weren't the shots that 1312 00:54:40,480 --> 00:54:42,920 Speaker 1: we love. It's what he said, let's take those shots 1313 00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:43,439 Speaker 1: that they love. 1314 00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:48,600 Speaker 3: Well, they're shooting deep shots too.
