Speaker 4: It's usually either New York Magazine or Bloomberg Business Week,

101
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,599
Speaker 4: and then you know what all the kids really sure?

102
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,279
Speaker 5: And then I go in and have my four way.

103
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,000
Speaker 3: Within the four way you do a four way four way?

104

00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 5: Point all the hot sauce, but point me.

107
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:38,800
Speaker 4: So I take my phone in and I'm kind of

108
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:42,600
Speaker 4: waiting and I get the first A lot of people

109
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:46,800
Speaker 4: won't believe this. I don't put something out until I

110
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 4: hear it from either one person that I know would know,

111
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:52,000
Speaker 4: or two people.

112
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:55,599
Speaker 5: That likely know. That's my personal standard.

113
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 4: I don't know what the standard is in the journalism world,

114
00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 4: but that's my standard because some people can be wrong.

115
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 5: But if there's one person that I.

116
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:07,160
Speaker 4: Know knows or two people that I think very very likely, no,

117
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 4: I'll go sure. So, like ninety percent of stuff I hear,

118
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 4: I don't put out. There's a lot a lot of

119
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 4: stuff that I've heard in the last few years. But

120
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:21,039
Speaker 4: because I couldn't call col directly like years ago, I'd

121
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 4: wait until I had two all right, I get the

122
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:28,840
Speaker 4: first one. Col's back, all right, Now, I think he's

123
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 4: probably back, but really there's two sides of this. Now

124
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 4: there's the basketball side and there's the athletics side, and

125
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:37,240
Speaker 4: you know they're not on the same page, haven't been

126
00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:40,960
Speaker 4: for years. Yeah, So one of them was on one side,

127
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 4: and I was like, I want to hear somebody on

128
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:44,920
Speaker 4: the other side tell me that, and then we finally

129
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:45,200
Speaker 4: get it.

130
00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:47,200
Speaker 5: So I hear from both sides he's back.

131
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:52,880
Speaker 4: So I put that out sitting all right, I want

132
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 4: you to picture like booths Shennon at Skyline. There were

133
00:05:56,640 --> 00:06:00,200
Speaker 4: only four people in the restaurant. Okay, all right, that's

134
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:02,800
Speaker 4: the one on Richmond Road. That's a big place, right,

135
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:09,160
Speaker 4: this probably like nineteen year old guy and his girlfriend

136
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,480
Speaker 4: come and they sit in the booth right next to

137
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 4: me to where they're like shenning.

138
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:14,600
Speaker 5: Back to back from me.

139
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, all the places me anywhere. Why did they

140
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,840
Speaker 4: have to sit right next to me? They're back to

141
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 4: back to me. Then it's uncomfortable, right because I'm next

142
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 4: to Brian, like I'm right on top of this guy.

143
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, and I go, okay, so.

144
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:31,720
Speaker 4: I actually flip sides to the other side of the

145
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 4: just to give myself some thing, so I tweeted out.

146
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:38,039
Speaker 4: Thirty seconds later, I hear the guy tell his girlfriend, well,

147
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:41,160
Speaker 4: it looks like Cal Perry's back, and she goes, how

148
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 4: do you know? And he says, Matt Jones just said it.

149
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:46,919
Speaker 4: And I thought to my shelf, shan, he doesn't realize

150
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:47,839
Speaker 4: I'm right next to.

151
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 3: Him, Yeah, Like, does he know what Matt Jones looks?

152
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 4: Literally seconds ago I was breathing in his ear. Yeah,

153
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:57,600
Speaker 4: and now I'm right next to him, so put it out,

154
00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 4: and of course, uh, you know, then every thing goes.

155
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,400
Speaker 4: I think a lot of the reports that came out

156
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 4: immediately after that were the quote unquote results of the meeting. Ryan,

157
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,680
Speaker 4: I don't know that I think all of those are true. Really, Yeah, No,

158
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:17,920
Speaker 4: I mean I everybody's got like a message they want

159
00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,280
Speaker 4: to put out. Yeah, and I think that was kind

160
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:23,680
Speaker 4: of the basketball message. But I do think over the

161
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 4: next few days we'll hear some of what's going to happen.

162
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 4: There's one or two things I'm confident of, but just overall,

163
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:33,440
Speaker 4: the decision to keep Cal is what in your mind.

164
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 6: I guess I'm not totally surprised because, like you and

165
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 6: I talked about I didn't think Mitch Barnhart wanted to

166
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,920
Speaker 6: be the guy that fired John Caliperi. And as you

167
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 6: pointed out, even though the fans were ready for this

168
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,280
Speaker 6: was me one more year. Maybe the administration was not

169
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,720
Speaker 6: there yet. Maybe they are now, you know, I don't know.

170
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:50,280
Speaker 6: I don't know what the conversation was like. Maybe you'll

171
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:51,840
Speaker 6: be able to fill us in a little bit. But

172
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 6: for cali Peri, you know, it sounded like on his

173
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 6: show that you know, he wanted to stay, you know,

174
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:57,760
Speaker 6: he would didn't want to go anywhere.

175
00:07:58,080 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 5: So I think that was clear from his show.

176
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,120
Speaker 6: Yeah, so I wasn't surprised when that came out yesterday.

177
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 5: What about you, Shannon, you think good decision?

178
00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 6: Uh?

179
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, probably overall, probably is a good decision.

180
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 2: I just you know, going back to who is going

181
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:13,920
Speaker 2: to replace him, there's there's some names out there that

182
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 2: maybe could come in and do a better job. Maybe,

183
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,120
Speaker 2: but you're taking a huge risk when you do that.

184
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:20,840
Speaker 2: I was. I wasn't surprised that he brought him back.

185
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 2: As I said, I would have been shocked if they

186
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,280
Speaker 2: didn't bring him back. So it's what I expected.

187
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:29,000
Speaker 4: I wasn't surprised but I have to tell you, Ryan,

188
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:31,280
Speaker 4: I think it was a lot closer than people realize.

189
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:33,599
Speaker 5: Really. I mean, I think they went through all I

190
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 5: think Mitch went through thoroughly.

191
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:40,400
Speaker 4: All the options. All Right, if we fire, do we

192
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:44,839
Speaker 4: have the money? Okay, where's it coming from? What do

193
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 4: we do next?

194
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 7: Like?

195
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 5: What's that process look like? How do we build a roster?

196
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 5: What's that timeline?

197
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:54,800
Speaker 4: So I think he did that, and then I think

198
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 4: he played out the other sequence, right, all right, what

199
00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:57,880
Speaker 4: if we keep him?

200
00:08:58,280 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 5: What's that look like?

201
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 4: You know, we talked about how they're gonna have to

202
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 4: sell all these front rows of the basketball thing? Yes,

203
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:09,720
Speaker 4: is this gonna keep it from happening? Okay, it can't

204
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 4: be managed like it's done? Will cal accept all this?

205
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 4: And I think they made the decision that they were

206
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:19,880
Speaker 4: going to keep him if col was cool with what

207
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:23,599
Speaker 4: was gonna happen. And they had that meeting yesterday, and

208
00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:26,280
Speaker 4: one has to assume he was okay with it to

209
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 4: come out of the meeting with the he stayed Yeah.

210
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,680
Speaker 5: Is that fair to say? Say? Now?

211
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 4: I will say, Shannon, so I put that out. Now,

212
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:36,120
Speaker 4: wasn't the only one other people put it out? I

213
00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:39,840
Speaker 4: put that out like seven something like that. Mitch's statement

214
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 4: was not exactly full of excitement, you know, late to right.

215
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 5: Well, but I mean that's okay.

216
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:49,360
Speaker 4: I mean he doesn't rock, but it was ten o'clock,

217
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:51,680
Speaker 4: which you would think would be past his bedtime. Yeah,

218
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,319
Speaker 4: this is not exactly I would say a statement of

219
00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:02,880
Speaker 4: huge affirmation and support, as we normally do at the

220
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 4: end of the season. Cali Perry and I have had

221
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 4: conversations about the direction of our men's basketball program, and

222
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,480
Speaker 4: I can confirm that he will return for his sixteenth

223
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 4: season as head coach.

224
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:13,480
Speaker 5: I mean that's not.

225
00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 6: That's just black and white.

226
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:19,240
Speaker 4: I mean that that's not like the most supportive comment

227
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:20,600
Speaker 4: in the world, is it, Shannon.

228
00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:22,079
Speaker 5: It's like, yeah, he's coming back.

229
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,840
Speaker 3: But I think his actions speak for him.

230
00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:27,120
Speaker 2: I mean, bringing them back, that's a huge vote of confidence,

231
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 2: just bringing them back and sticking your neck out there

232
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 2: as the ad.

233
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 4: But he's also sort of acknowledging that maybe there was

234
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:35,679
Speaker 4: some consideration because he doesn't write that every year.

235
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:37,880
Speaker 6: Well, I'm sure he doesn't release the statement.

236
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,360
Speaker 4: He doesn't release the statement he's coming. He didn't release

237
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 4: a statement last year say Mark Stoops is coming back.

238
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 3: You know he's getting the emails. He knows there's some

239
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 3: angry fans.

240
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,640
Speaker 6: Let me ask you this then, So obviously the pressure's

241
00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,040
Speaker 6: on Col next year. But is a pressure now also

242
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:51,640
Speaker 6: on Mitch now?

243
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:55,040
Speaker 5: I think so. I think if Col fails again.

244
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:56,760
Speaker 6: People point their finger at Mitch.

245
00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:01,160
Speaker 5: Now. I think so, because he he had a chance

246
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:02,079
Speaker 5: to do it this year.

247
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:07,079
Speaker 4: In years past it was only really the kuks. And

248
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:09,320
Speaker 4: I say that with infinity because I have some friends

249
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:12,320
Speaker 4: that were kooks. But it wasn't like a real option

250
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 4: to let him go. This year actually was.

251
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, And if he had, I don't know that.

252
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:21,199
Speaker 4: I mean, there would have been some people upset, but

253
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:24,720
Speaker 4: like I think the fan base most of them would

254
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:25,240
Speaker 4: have been all right.

255
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 5: But he chose not to.

256
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 4: So I think he's putting his career off the line too.

257
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,800
Speaker 4: I think Mitch is probably headed towards the end of

258
00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:39,560
Speaker 4: his time here anyway, voluntarily, right. Yeah, And let's say

259
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:41,640
Speaker 4: you only want to do this Shan in another year

260
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:41,920
Speaker 4: or two.

261
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 5: Yep, do you want your last action being firing cow?

262
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:46,440
Speaker 6: You don't.

263
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,720
Speaker 5: You probably don't know, right, You probably don't.

264
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:51,679
Speaker 3: You're trying to set this up for the next guy too.

265
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:54,560
Speaker 4: And I think there's an argument that if there would

266
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,040
Speaker 4: needed to be a change. Mitch might Mitch is the

267
00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,319
Speaker 4: kind of selfless person who might be like, I'd like

268
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:02,280
Speaker 4: the next guy to make that change. Although whoever the

269
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:04,200
Speaker 4: next man or woman would be, that would be a.

270
00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 3: Hard a lot of pressure.

271
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 5: That's a lot of coach, Yeah, I mean that's a lot.

272
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:16,599
Speaker 4: Now, what happened in the meeting, I don't have a

273
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 4: ton of specifics, but here are the two things, right,

274
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:22,600
Speaker 4: And I think I can say very confident these are

275
00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:25,040
Speaker 4: the two things I think definitely happen. There's a lot

276
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:27,520
Speaker 4: of stuff that I don't know, and but here are

277
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:30,000
Speaker 4: the two things I think definitely am one. There are

278
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:34,480
Speaker 4: gonna be some changes in how the basketball program is

279
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,640
Speaker 4: run and who's doing it. There're gonna be some people

280
00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:40,280
Speaker 4: who've been there a while who will.

281
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,120
Speaker 5: Not be there next year.

282
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:44,679
Speaker 6: You're talking about assistance.

283
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:48,080
Speaker 4: I'm talking about there'll be a change with at least

284
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:51,520
Speaker 4: one assistant. And there'll be some names that maybe you

285
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:55,760
Speaker 4: all don't know, but are the people who run the

286
00:12:55,880 --> 00:13:02,120
Speaker 4: place that are likely gonna be not rotained And that

287
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,880
Speaker 4: is a big deal because some of those people have

288
00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:12,839
Speaker 4: longtime cow col ties. And if can we be can

289
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:15,319
Speaker 4: we be honest? Be Frank Chanon. Do you want to

290
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 4: be honest?

291
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:17,800
Speaker 3: I want Frank Lemon. Yeah, let's be honest.

292
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 6: Go ahead, Frank, No, you're Frank Frank Jones today Jones.

293
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 4: And again I don't I don't really care if people

294
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:32,400
Speaker 4: disagree with this because Kyle Tucker's article last year's showcase.

295
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:34,960
Speaker 5: People don't want to know what's actually happened. I mean

296
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,360
Speaker 5: they say they do, but when then they do, they

297
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 5: just get angry.

298
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:39,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, you pull back the curtain and.

299
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:41,559
Speaker 4: You like, if you pull back the curtain and you

300
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,800
Speaker 4: don't see what you want to see, you get angry.

301
00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:48,079
Speaker 5: Ye, not all everyone, but a lot of people do.

302
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:52,760
Speaker 4: But the reality is for three years, I think this

303
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:56,160
Speaker 4: started with COVID, But honestly, the COVID year was was

304
00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:59,640
Speaker 4: wild in a lot of ways that aren't really Cow's fault,

305
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:02,439
Speaker 4: although the coaching I think was, but some of the

306
00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 4: other stuff. But the last three years it has been

307
00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:10,480
Speaker 4: an organizational organizational disaster. Leave aside what you see on

308
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,920
Speaker 4: the court, just the way things run there have been

309
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:19,040
Speaker 4: way out of whack, right, it's disorganized. It has led

310
00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:24,160
Speaker 4: to problems off the court where just in the anile world,

311
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:25,680
Speaker 4: nobody's sure what to do.

312
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:27,440
Speaker 5: I mean, who do you call?

313
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:31,440
Speaker 4: People with loose lips would tell players they'd get this,

314
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 4: but then they were never really gonna get that, and

315
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:38,560
Speaker 4: then that like, it was just an organizational disaster. To

316
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 4: get to cal you had to go through one person,

317
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:44,880
Speaker 4: and if that person didn't like you, well sorry, that's

318
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 4: just the way it goes. And it was a disaster.

319
00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 4: And anyone, if they are honest, anyone associated with UK basketball,

320
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:55,240
Speaker 4: would tell you that's true.

321
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 5: They all would tell you that.

322
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:01,640
Speaker 4: People who Cow's one of their best friends, if you

323
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:03,880
Speaker 4: got them on a lie detector, they would tell you

324
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:09,000
Speaker 4: that place was run about as unorganized as possible. And

325
00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:12,720
Speaker 4: almost all the off the court problems go to that.

326
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 4: And ultimately that's Cow's fault.

327
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:15,520
Speaker 5: He's in charge.

328
00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:19,000
Speaker 4: True, but it's not all Cow. It's some dissert Why

329
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 4: do you think these people left in recent years? They

330
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:29,840
Speaker 4: couldn't take that anymore. They just couldn't. Kyle dealt with

331
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:32,200
Speaker 4: some of that in his article, But it got worse

332
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:36,840
Speaker 4: this year, and I think Mitch, to his credit, has

333
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:37,840
Speaker 4: come in and said that.

334
00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:38,920
Speaker 5: Ain't happening anymore.

335
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:44,040
Speaker 4: We UK athletics are now going to go back to

336
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:46,520
Speaker 4: what we do for every other school, which is make

337
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 4: sure this is run or ec every other program. Make

338
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:51,800
Speaker 4: sure this is running an organized manner, and you don't

339
00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:54,400
Speaker 4: get to do it as your own fiefdom anymore.

340
00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:56,640
Speaker 6: Yeah, basketball is kind of on its own island for

341
00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:57,520
Speaker 6: the lastny years.

342
00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:01,040
Speaker 4: Was for years on its own island that operated like

343
00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:04,880
Speaker 4: a well oiled machine. Now it's on its own island

344
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:09,840
Speaker 4: where it's lord of the flies. And I think Mitch

345
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 4: is saying that island is now gone, and we're going

346
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:17,480
Speaker 4: to organize this like we do football, like we do

347
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:21,320
Speaker 4: like every other sport. And I don't think Cal loves that,

348
00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:25,160
Speaker 4: but I don't think he had a choice because even

349
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 4: he knows it can't be like it was.

350
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:27,880
Speaker 5: Yeah.

351
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 6: So do you think they'll end up being a guy

352
00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 6: not Dwayne Pev, but a guy like Dwayne Pev. That'll

353
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:33,720
Speaker 6: be that interview.

354
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:36,160
Speaker 4: I don't know, But I think the way it is now,

355
00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:38,600
Speaker 4: that's the part of the meeting. I don't know is

356
00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:41,080
Speaker 4: how they decided it will look in the future. But

357
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 4: I think Mitch said to him, it ain't gonna be

358
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 4: like it was, and you gotta be okay with that.

359
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 4: He must be okay. He must have said yes for

360
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 4: this to a blare. I was told the night before

361
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:53,920
Speaker 4: the meeting it is more likely than not he's the coach.

362
00:16:54,200 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 4: But cal has to agree that this stuff's getting changed. Well,

363
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 4: it's announced he was the coach. Yeah, so my guess

364
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:04,639
Speaker 4: is he must have agreed.

365
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:07,880
Speaker 6: Maybe through all this it's been kind of a humbling experience,

366
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:09,800
Speaker 6: and he's more willing to accept some of this.

367
00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:10,240
Speaker 4: Well.

368
00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:10,879
Speaker 5: I love about that.

369
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:13,400
Speaker 4: I don't think he has a choice. For the first

370
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:15,520
Speaker 4: time since he's been here, the leverage is flipped.

371
00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:16,640
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's right.

372
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,560
Speaker 4: For the first time since he's been here, he doesn't

373
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,400
Speaker 4: have the leverage. And this was a chance for Mitch

374
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:24,880
Speaker 4: to do what he probably wanted to do ten years ago,

375
00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:30,399
Speaker 4: which is make it an actual, well organized business, not

376
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:35,440
Speaker 4: a fiefdom led by whoever happens to have moved their

377
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,400
Speaker 4: way into the top. We even to take a break.

378
00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:40,399
Speaker 4: We'll take a break. We'll talk more about this. KSI

379
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 4: mac davis.

380
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:46,840
Speaker 3: A version of this song too.

381
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:49,360
Speaker 4: Will he does see this? He sings it at concerts.

382
00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:52,120
Speaker 4: Never met a woman who likes this song. I've played

383
00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:54,560
Speaker 4: this as a joke and they're always like, this is awful.

384
00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:56,960
Speaker 6: I can see why it's terrible.

385
00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,160
Speaker 5: I can see why all right, Drew is here.

386
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:02,920
Speaker 4: First of all, Shannon suggested during the break that we

387
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 4: dock your pay for the part of the show you missed.

388
00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:10,440
Speaker 4: You've missed one, you've missed one eighth of the show

389
00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 4: you make of six dollars, you make ten two thousand

390
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,680
Speaker 4: dollars a show, So you're down two hundred and fifty bucks.

391
00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 5: So we're gonna two.

392
00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:20,960
Speaker 8: I was actually I was about to run out of

393
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,040
Speaker 8: gas downtown. I thought, I don't think I could fill

394
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:25,399
Speaker 8: my car for what I'm missing. No, I don't know

395
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:27,119
Speaker 8: what's gonna being serious, Sorry, I'm late. I don't know

396
00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:29,920
Speaker 8: what's happening in Lexington. But I was downtown in one

397
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:31,320
Speaker 8: spot for forty five minutes.

398
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,240
Speaker 6: Yeah, I keep looking on our social media. Somebody I

399
00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:35,280
Speaker 6: thought would tell us what's going on.

400
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:35,960
Speaker 5: I want to tell you.

401
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:39,520
Speaker 4: I think present. I think you're making it up. All right,

402
00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:42,280
Speaker 4: so uh so, so back to what I was saying

403
00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:46,600
Speaker 4: for a second. So I think they're gonna they're gonna

404
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:49,680
Speaker 4: reorganize everything on the text machine. One person goes, Matt,

405
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,840
Speaker 4: are the problems you think mitches or Cow's fault? Well,

406
00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:56,680
Speaker 4: on some level they're both. But again, all right, so

407
00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:59,359
Speaker 4: let's go back, it's twenty ten. You bring call in,

408
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:04,760
Speaker 4: you hire Cal. Everybody's exciting. John Wall commits, DeMarcus Cousins commits,

409
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:08,000
Speaker 4: Patrick Patterson comes back. It's like, yeah, but to do here?

410
00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:11,240
Speaker 4: We go booba dee bo and then Cal starts saying, yeah,

411
00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:11,840
Speaker 4: I ain't doing that.

412
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 5: I'm doing this now. Mitch, in theory should take control.

413
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:17,359
Speaker 5: But how you gonna do that?

414
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:18,560
Speaker 9: Hew?

415
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:19,080
Speaker 6: You gonna do that?

416
00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:21,080
Speaker 5: If publicly there's a problem.

417
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:23,600
Speaker 4: Between the two of them, Who's gonna win cal Perry,

418
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,680
Speaker 4: cal Perry's gonna win. So then twenty ten happens, you're

419
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 4: the coolest program in the country.

420
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:28,520
Speaker 5: You're rocking.

421
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:31,200
Speaker 4: Twenty eleven happens, you make the final four, twenty twelve,

422
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 4: you win the national championship. Cal continues to do what

423
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:37,760
Speaker 4: he wants. At that point, what's Mitch gonna do? Yeah,

424
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:40,720
Speaker 4: I mean there's and so all of a sudden, you

425
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:43,960
Speaker 4: get more and more and more removed. They had Dwayne

426
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 4: Peevee as the one guy who would go, Okay, I'll

427
00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:48,920
Speaker 4: make all this work, and he does, and then the

428
00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:51,639
Speaker 4: day he leaves, it's like the one big brother that

429
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:55,120
Speaker 4: everybody listened to is gone, and it's like, oh, Shannon

430
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:59,320
Speaker 4: party all the time, right, that's right. And if and

431
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,440
Speaker 4: then when you aren't losing, it falls apart, that's true.

432
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,800
Speaker 4: And that's what happened. I mean, that's what happened. Now,

433
00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:08,200
Speaker 4: let me ask you a question that I got to

434
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:12,199
Speaker 4: asked yesterday by somebody pretty closely associated with the program.

435
00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:13,800
Speaker 5: Does this work?

436
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,520
Speaker 4: Knowing Cow's gonna have to do things differently than he's

437
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:21,080
Speaker 4: done for fifteen years, knowing Mitch is now going to

438
00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:25,520
Speaker 4: be involved, and knowing the way the fan base is,

439
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:27,200
Speaker 4: does this work?

440
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:29,720
Speaker 6: You want me to go first?

441
00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:30,040
Speaker 5: Yeah?

442
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:33,000
Speaker 6: My fear is no mean and I think it's because

443
00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:35,479
Speaker 6: we were at this point last year where changes had

444
00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:37,040
Speaker 6: to be made. You gotta do this, you got you

445
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 6: gotta bring in shooters, you got to bring in it

446
00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:42,960
Speaker 6: somewhere for game planning, game strategy. He did. I just

447
00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:46,440
Speaker 6: don't think he's going to change, like Mitch thinks he's

448
00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:47,000
Speaker 6: going to change.

449
00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:47,920
Speaker 5: Do you think it works?

450
00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 8: I have very little faith, which is why I thought

451
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,120
Speaker 8: it was time to try something new. I just I'm

452
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:56,240
Speaker 8: still stuck on why are we acting like last year

453
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:56,800
Speaker 8: didn't happen?

454
00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:58,639
Speaker 5: That was the let's do it?

455
00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:00,639
Speaker 8: Yeah, it was like when he said Monday Night on

456
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:02,480
Speaker 8: his show, and I appreciate him trying. He said, let's

457
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,600
Speaker 8: come together and do something special. I'm still hurting that

458
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:08,200
Speaker 8: I'll never see Rob Dillingham in a Kentucky uniform again.

459
00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 8: I thought that was gonna be something special, and I'm

460
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:12,280
Speaker 8: sure a lot of people are like me. I mean,

461
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:14,200
Speaker 8: we're gonna get up and cheer for Kentucky and be

462
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:17,080
Speaker 8: for whatever players are in uniform. I hope a lot

463
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:19,040
Speaker 8: from this current team are on the team next year.

464
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:22,200
Speaker 8: I just worry about the promotion and then getting excitement,

465
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:24,320
Speaker 8: and god forbid, it goes south and they lose some

466
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:26,440
Speaker 8: games early. It is just gonna be nastier than it

467
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 8: would need to be if it were a new change.

468
00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:31,480
Speaker 8: But the decision has been made. Mitch's tweet got me

469
00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:33,640
Speaker 8: ready to run through a wall last night, and we're

470
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:37,000
Speaker 8: gonna be cheering for the Wildcats wait for that bab

471
00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:38,160
Speaker 8: to drop.

472
00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,800
Speaker 5: This is the way I would put if you asked

473
00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:45,760
Speaker 5: me to guess, is this gonna work? No, it's not.

474
00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:47,880
Speaker 5: There's too much.

475
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,280
Speaker 4: You're asking a man who's coached for thirty five years

476
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:56,320
Speaker 4: to change overnight, not just his basketball style, which, to

477
00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:59,399
Speaker 4: be fair to him, he changed a little, but like

478
00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:00,560
Speaker 4: every thing about it.

479
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 5: It would be as if you took this radio show

480
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:05,639
Speaker 5: and you said, hey, Matt, now you have to follow

481
00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:06,600
Speaker 5: the rules of radio.

482
00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:08,680
Speaker 6: You have to talk x's and o's.

483
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:12,520
Speaker 5: You have to talk x's and o's. I don't know

484
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:16,920
Speaker 5: if that's gonna work. With that said, when it tips off,

485
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 5: I hope it does work.

486
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:18,520
Speaker 6: Amen.

487
00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:21,520
Speaker 5: We all should hope it does because if it doesn't,

488
00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:25,919
Speaker 5: we all lose all of us. I hope we win

489
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:29,840
Speaker 5: every game. Do I think it will what I know

490
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 5: of him?

491
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:31,359
Speaker 4: No?

492
00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:35,879
Speaker 5: I don't. But do I hope it does? Yes? I

493
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 5: want to be wrong. I want to have it thrown

494
00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 5: in my face that it works. But do I think

495
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:44,240
Speaker 5: it will?

496
00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:45,520
Speaker 9: No?

497
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:48,399
Speaker 5: And do I know the people around them? Do they

498
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:49,080
Speaker 5: think it will?

499
00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:49,920
Speaker 6: No?

500
00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:52,760
Speaker 5: But I hope it does. Well.

501
00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:55,000
Speaker 4: Take your calls. What'd you think of the decision yesterday?

502
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,200
Speaker 4: Have some football on the second hour. It's KSR.

503
00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:04,520
Speaker 5: TJ. Smith, personal injury attorney called TJ. He'll make them.

Speaker 3: Here's Matt Jones.

506
00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:13,480
Speaker 4: Welcome back Tucky Sports Radio. There are two things going

507
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 4: on downtown. One the State Student Technology Leadership Program at

508
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:19,040
Speaker 4: RUP that can't be it.

509
00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:24,080
Speaker 6: Thousands and thousands and thousands got before I got near up.

510
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:27,720
Speaker 4: The other is that they're putting up Keenland banners and

511
00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:31,000
Speaker 4: they shut down part of downtown. Let me just say, Shannon,

512
00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:34,080
Speaker 4: if that's true, that would annoy me. And I wasn't

513
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:34,879
Speaker 4: even in the traffic.

514
00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,359
Speaker 5: Yeah, like put up the banners in the middle of

515
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 5: the nine.

516
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:40,000
Speaker 6: Yes, not during morning rush hour.

517
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:42,840
Speaker 4: They should never I mean, I get it, but like

518
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:44,720
Speaker 4: that kind of stuff, do it in the middle of

519
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:46,360
Speaker 4: the knot or do it at night.

520
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:48,840
Speaker 5: You should never do that during the day.

521
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:50,560
Speaker 3: Is that a nine to five job and they have

522
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:51,840
Speaker 3: to do it between those hours?

523
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:56,800
Speaker 4: I mean maybe, but like give over time, right, yes,

524
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:01,120
Speaker 4: just like pay them time and a half. Somebody will

525
00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:03,359
Speaker 4: do it, like somebody will be agreed to that to

526
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:06,120
Speaker 4: get time. And I like, you don't shut it down

527
00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:06,840
Speaker 4: for that stuff.

528
00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:08,320
Speaker 8: If I'd known, I would have gotten out and put

529
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:10,040
Speaker 8: them up myself to speed up the process.

530
00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:13,359
Speaker 5: I sit on. Every street was red on the.

531
00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:17,760
Speaker 3: We have some breaking news, Okay doesn't need.

532
00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:24,760
Speaker 4: NCAA President Charlie Baker says he will go to all

533
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:28,480
Speaker 4: states where gambling is legal and ask them to ban

534
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:32,440
Speaker 4: prop bets for college games. Prop bets are where you

535
00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:35,440
Speaker 4: bet on whether a player will score x or y points,

536
00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:35,960
Speaker 4: et cetera.

537
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:39,040
Speaker 8: A big prep bet, guy, I'll be honest. Yeah, that's

538
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:42,600
Speaker 8: that's part of the fun in Pennsylvania because we couldn't.

539
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 8: I was trying to well, actually I was trying to

540
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:45,800
Speaker 8: bet Rob MVP of the Final four.

541
00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, give me some money. Well, first of all, I mean,

542
00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:52,920
Speaker 5: Charlie Baker can ask. He can't. The NCAA can't. That's

543
00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:55,600
Speaker 5: the NCAA president. He can't force that. The states will

544
00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:58,320
Speaker 5: have to agree to it. But my guess is most

545
00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:00,639
Speaker 5: of the states will do what he asked.

546
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:04,280
Speaker 6: Tennessee already does it for collegiate athletes.

547
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:04,879
Speaker 5: Pennsylvania.

548
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:06,639
Speaker 4: You can't do it in Pennsylvania. You can't do it

549
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 4: in Ohio, you can't do it in Tennessee. My guess

550
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:13,879
Speaker 4: is they'll do that here too, which I mean, I

551
00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:17,000
Speaker 4: get it, because you don't want players to be harassed

552
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:20,600
Speaker 4: like there were some players at other schools being harassed

553
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:22,880
Speaker 4: like you, I needed you to score eight point five

554
00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 4: points and you scored seven boo.

555
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:32,320
Speaker 5: So I get it. But yeah, I enjoy that.

556
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:33,040
Speaker 6: But it's fun.

557
00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:35,840
Speaker 5: But I understand, I mean, it is what it is.

558
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:39,159
Speaker 8: It's also if a player really wanted to do, you

559
00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:42,920
Speaker 8: could shave you're under on rebounds much easier than you

560
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:43,760
Speaker 8: could take a game.

561
00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:45,199
Speaker 6: So I think that.

562
00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:48,359
Speaker 5: It was a lot of fun. But I understand why.

563
00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 4: I get it.

564
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:52,159
Speaker 5: I mean, I I you know, I get it.

565
00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 4: You're supposed to please play responsibly, and if people don't,

566
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:55,719
Speaker 4: that's the way it goes.

567
00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:57,280
Speaker 5: All right, I'm gonna go to the phones real quick.

568
00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:02,280
Speaker 4: Here. One person, right, it's Matt. I don't understand your negativity.

569
00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:04,879
Speaker 4: Why don't you think these changes will work well? No?

570
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:05,399
Speaker 5: Oh?

571
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:07,480
Speaker 4: And then another person writes, Matt, will you give me

572
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:11,240
Speaker 4: the context of how you think this stuff can work positively?

573
00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:13,480
Speaker 5: So let me do that. To answer the first question, Okay,

574
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:17,240
Speaker 5: first of all, you have to believe.

575
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:21,040
Speaker 4: That once the game gets on the court, the problems

576
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 4: we've seen will not occur anymore. The defense will get better,

577
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:27,840
Speaker 4: the physicality will get better while also playing offensively like

578
00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:30,760
Speaker 4: we did this year, and the end of game stuff

579
00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 4: will be better. So that's number one, and if that happens,

580
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:37,320
Speaker 4: that's good. And then number two, you have to sort

581
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:41,320
Speaker 4: of assume that the kind of terrible misorganization of that

582
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:45,720
Speaker 4: department gets fixed if both those things happen. Yes, I

583
00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:50,320
Speaker 4: do think it can succeed, but if they don't, they

584
00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:53,200
Speaker 4: don't our Nisle's been a disaster the last couple of

585
00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:56,560
Speaker 4: years for players transferred, for the guys coming in at

586
00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:58,440
Speaker 4: high school, it's not been a big deal. Cal to

587
00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:01,320
Speaker 4: his credit, is able to sell the NBA to such

588
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,640
Speaker 4: such an extent that Nile is not really the big

589
00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:06,200
Speaker 4: reason those guys come, although they do well in it.

590
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:10,480
Speaker 4: But for transfers, the Nile is the thing, and we

591
00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:13,840
Speaker 4: have done a pretty poor job of doing what we've

592
00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:14,760
Speaker 4: said we would do.

593
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:18,720
Speaker 5: I'm just being real. That's just the reality. And it's

594
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:20,480
Speaker 5: gotten out there and people know it.

595
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:24,400
Speaker 4: And what Nate called the other day, again I can't

596
00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:27,760
Speaker 4: confirm his circumstances, but he ain't the I got blown

597
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:28,960
Speaker 4: up with people saying.

598
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:31,200
Speaker 5: The same thing as soon it was as it was over,

599
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:32,040
Speaker 5: didn't you rhyme?

600
00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:35,440
Speaker 6: And which is this makes me sad that you know

601
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:37,560
Speaker 6: we should be at the forefront of something like that.

602
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:38,360
Speaker 6: We're Kentucky.

603
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:41,080
Speaker 5: So hopefully that call actually spurs some change.

604
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:42,199
Speaker 6: Maybe yep, But.

605
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:46,000
Speaker 5: I give Mitch credit for saying all that needs to change.

606
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:48,760
Speaker 5: But at the same time, the question is will it

607
00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:51,760
Speaker 5: and I don't know a lot of these things.

608
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:53,680
Speaker 8: Cal knew about last summer, and he could have looked

609
00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:54,919
Speaker 8: in the mirror and fixed him himself.

610
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:57,920
Speaker 5: Is what gives me. Kyle Tucker.

611
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:00,879
Speaker 4: Go back and read Kyle Tucker's article. He talks about

612
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:04,840
Speaker 4: all of this and he got shouted down. And what

613
00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:06,680
Speaker 4: I would say to our fan base, I'm not trying

614
00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:09,480
Speaker 4: to yell at you all because I love our fan base.

615
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:13,080
Speaker 4: To me, as I said yesterday, BBN is what the

616
00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:16,920
Speaker 4: program is. But folks have got to also look in

617
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:20,080
Speaker 4: the mirror. When you get bad news, if you shout

618
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:24,880
Speaker 4: it down, it only enables the bad behavior. Right, yep,

619
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:29,879
Speaker 4: It only enables the bad behavior when you go fake news.

620
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:33,040
Speaker 5: And then you come back a year later and go,

621
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:35,240
Speaker 5: why is it like this? Well, somebody tried to tell

622
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:36,359
Speaker 5: you and you yelled at.

623
00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:39,240
Speaker 8: Him, say, we're creating drama because we need clicks. No,

624
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:40,080
Speaker 8: we're trying to tell you.

625
00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:45,160
Speaker 5: You won't clicks, he won't come on you show. No,

626
00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:47,680
Speaker 5: these are real problems.

627
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:51,840
Speaker 4: But when you make it to where the personality is

628
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:55,720
Speaker 4: bigger than the product, you will end up with a

629
00:28:55,880 --> 00:29:02,000
Speaker 4: situation like this. You know, I'll just use the party

630
00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 4: that I'm in When Obama was president, he did some

631
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:08,320
Speaker 4: things that I didn't like, but you couldn't criticize him

632
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:13,000
Speaker 4: because everyone loved him. The right is the same way

633
00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:15,000
Speaker 4: with Trump, some of them, and you know I'm right

634
00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:19,040
Speaker 4: about that, they'll defend any behavior because they like him.

635
00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:22,280
Speaker 5: We can't do that. And you can't do it with

636
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:25,760
Speaker 5: basketball either, especially because I look out for Kentucky.

637
00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:26,640
Speaker 6: Look what Louisville did.

638
00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:30,120
Speaker 4: For years, it did not matter what George and Patino

639
00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:36,040
Speaker 4: did because Jenna hater. And then it all falls apart

640
00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:38,560
Speaker 4: and you end up with the circus. Now that they're

641
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 4: talking about hiring Bobby Huggins and Richard Patina, how long.

642
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:45,520
Speaker 8: Will that list get If they don't get rich Petino

643
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:47,080
Speaker 8: or Bob Huggins, Where does it end that?

644
00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:48,960
Speaker 5: I didn't think they'd get this far down, Like what's

645
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:51,680
Speaker 5: the next crazy name that could come up for them? Like,

646
00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 5: I don't know, I.

647
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:57,760
Speaker 8: Don't really Bob Huggins and Richard Patino are honestly the

648
00:29:57,800 --> 00:29:58,560
Speaker 8: two I would.

649
00:29:58,360 --> 00:29:58,680
Speaker 5: Come up with.

650
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:02,920
Speaker 4: Billy Gillespie, Billy bless me the listen, although I think

651
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 4: you could make an argument he's more qualified than both

652
00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:05,480
Speaker 4: of them.

653
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:07,240
Speaker 5: Maybe, So who's up first?

654
00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:08,680
Speaker 6: Ship Judy Judy.

655
00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:19,040
Speaker 7: What's up, Judy, Judy, anytime you're ready, Judy, go ahead.

656
00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:22,960
Speaker 10: First thing I want to say is I'm so proud

657
00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:27,720
Speaker 10: of my nephews Troy and Clark Haw for their coverage

658
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:32,000
Speaker 10: of the Sweet sixteen boys basketball tournament.

659
00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:34,040
Speaker 5: Yes, they did a great job.

660
00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:40,840
Speaker 10: They did. And second is you know we struggle on defense.

661
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:46,040
Speaker 10: Did we have a defensive assistant that was good at that?

662
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:54,960
Speaker 10: Was Kenny Payne good at that? Or a defensive coach?

663
00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:57,240
Speaker 5: I appreciate, Judy. I don't know who was kind of

664
00:30:57,320 --> 00:30:59,320
Speaker 5: in charge of defense with this group. I'm not even

665
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:03,800
Speaker 5: miners is allegedly chin? Is it with Kenny? I think

666
00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:04,280
Speaker 5: a big thing.

667
00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:06,600
Speaker 8: And this has been said publicly by players, and a

668
00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:08,720
Speaker 8: lot of it has been in praising Kenny since he's.

669
00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:09,280
Speaker 5: Been at Louisville.

670
00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:11,520
Speaker 8: But that dude when he was at UK and you've

671
00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:13,239
Speaker 8: heard of all say it. They could call him at

672
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:14,680
Speaker 8: two in the morning and he would get out of

673
00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:16,480
Speaker 8: bed and be at the gym in fifteen minutes to

674
00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:19,200
Speaker 8: work people out. That was like Kenny's gift, didn't minute,

675
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:21,240
Speaker 8: it matter the hour. He could be with his family,

676
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:22,640
Speaker 8: He could be in the middle of a round of

677
00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:25,520
Speaker 8: golf if Julius Randall or one of those guys called

678
00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:27,080
Speaker 8: Kenny and said, I need an hour in the gym.

679
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:29,480
Speaker 8: He's there, and I think that has been missing a

680
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:33,360
Speaker 8: lot too. I think a lot of times availability with

681
00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:35,520
Speaker 8: this staff, you know, they missed that a lot. That

682
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:37,880
Speaker 8: was Kenny's strength and just you know, having a guy

683
00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:39,520
Speaker 8: come over at any time to work them out they miss.

684
00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:42,040
Speaker 4: My guess is we'll have a different defensive coach next year.

685
00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:44,480
Speaker 4: I think so didn't whatever it was that occurred, Just

686
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:45,960
Speaker 4: to have a seat, fellas, who's up next?

687
00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:46,520
Speaker 3: Justin?

688
00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:48,520
Speaker 5: Justin? Go ahead, justin. If you don't want to sit

689
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:50,520
Speaker 5: so close, you've welcome to sit over there. It's up

690
00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:52,960
Speaker 5: to you. Some people, some people don't.

691
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:54,760
Speaker 4: Want to hear me screaming while they're eating lunch, So

692
00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:56,160
Speaker 4: I understand, go ahead, justin.

693
00:31:57,240 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 11: Yes, I think the only way that this is going

694
00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:01,200
Speaker 11: to work out is this one. Cal has to stop

695
00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:02,040
Speaker 11: mocking the fans.

696
00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:02,720
Speaker 5: In two.

697
00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:05,360
Speaker 11: I think he needs to go after Kenny Payne and

698
00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 11: John Ropick again. It has not been the same since

699
00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 11: both of them have least, and it has not been

700
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:12,480
Speaker 11: the same ever since John Robick has left. He's the

701
00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:15,240
Speaker 11: exes and o's and he's been through. He's been with

702
00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:17,760
Speaker 11: Cal through most of his career. They need to go

703
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,040
Speaker 11: after John Robick at all costs in order for this

704
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:20,440
Speaker 11: to work.

705
00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:22,120
Speaker 5: In my opinion, Thank you all right.

706
00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:25,800
Speaker 4: I appreciate the call. Uh yeah, the talk of down

707
00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:27,920
Speaker 4: and the fans. I mean, I you know, you know

708
00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:30,320
Speaker 4: my opinion on that. You want to know how I'll

709
00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:33,920
Speaker 4: know if Cal's changed. Let's see what happens next year

710
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:38,000
Speaker 4: when they win some games. That's what I want. I

711
00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:40,840
Speaker 4: want to see what happens. Does he is he the

712
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:45,560
Speaker 4: CA you know. Go back and watch videos of Cal

713
00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:51,479
Speaker 4: after wins twenty ten to twenty eighteen. Go look at

714
00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:55,240
Speaker 4: how gracious he is. There's a celebration, Joyce celebration.

715
00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:57,560
Speaker 5: Go look at how much fun he's having during the

716
00:32:57,640 --> 00:32:58,400
Speaker 5: postgame show.

717
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:03,240
Speaker 4: Then watch him after the Auburn game or after the

718
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:07,720
Speaker 4: Tennessee game, and just see, like, can you get back

719
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:10,920
Speaker 4: to that mindset? I loved what he said in that

720
00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:12,920
Speaker 4: in that radio show where he said we all need

721
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:19,360
Speaker 4: to come together. You're the biggest part of that. You're

722
00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:23,840
Speaker 4: the biggest part of that. All coming together is all.

723
00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:27,440
Speaker 4: I'll meet you there if we're winning, our fans will

724
00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:32,280
Speaker 4: meet you there. But you gotta come there too, and

725
00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:36,960
Speaker 4: you know, you got to bring people together. Everybody's got

726
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:39,320
Speaker 4: to be part of that. And I think that's an

727
00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:41,680
Speaker 4: important thing. And we'll see if he's able to do it.

728
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:42,240
Speaker 5: Who's next?

729
00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:44,360
Speaker 3: Shit, let's go to Dwayne.

730
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:47,479
Speaker 5: Dwayne. What's up, Dwayne hey Man?

731
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:51,160
Speaker 12: First time call her? Who listen? Listen.

732
00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:55,160
Speaker 13: I've got this hypothesis about.

733
00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:02,080
Speaker 5: Because we talked to you. I like that way he

734
00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:08,120
Speaker 5: uses the word that we talked. Yes, go ahead, and just.

735
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:11,960
Speaker 12: A basis real quick though, you know, I think about

736
00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:14,960
Speaker 12: when cal Perry first came, some of the players he

737
00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:18,239
Speaker 12: had and the talent he had, you know, Wall and

738
00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:23,320
Speaker 12: Cousins and of course you know Anthony Davis, and I

739
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:26,440
Speaker 12: just think, you know, I'm not saying anything about this

740
00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:28,879
Speaker 12: team we've had this year. They're they're good players, don't

741
00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:31,160
Speaker 12: get me wrong, but I just don't believe that they're

742
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:32,960
Speaker 12: the caliber of players that we have.

743
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:34,160
Speaker 5: Those students don't come.

744
00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:37,000
Speaker 4: To be fair though, those dudes don't come around very often.

745
00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:39,880
Speaker 4: I mean, like, let's go look, since John Wall was.

746
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:45,320
Speaker 5: Here, elite, elite, elite college basketball players, how many have

747
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:48,399
Speaker 5: come along since then? Wall was one?

748
00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:54,440
Speaker 4: And that's Anthony Davis was one. Zion was one, Carl

749
00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:59,480
Speaker 4: Towns was one. Cooper Flag that's going to Duke next

750
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:02,240
Speaker 4: year's one. But they just ain't a lot of those guys.

751
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:05,799
Speaker 13: So I mean that place to the point, that place

752
00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:08,520
Speaker 13: to the point that I'm trying to make. Yeah, I

753
00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:12,600
Speaker 13: feel like that John cal Perry, to me, has never

754
00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:16,200
Speaker 13: been a good coach. And when I say a coach,

755
00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:19,040
Speaker 13: I'm talking about you know, years ago there was a

756
00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:21,680
Speaker 13: sport made basketball and they said that guy that's head

757
00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:24,160
Speaker 13: over it's going to be called the coach. And his

758
00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:27,960
Speaker 13: main thing was to tell the players where they want

759
00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:31,160
Speaker 13: to be on the court. Uh, you know, obviously recruiting

760
00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:33,440
Speaker 13: was a bigger thing, and I just.

761
00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:36,080
Speaker 4: Talent.

762
00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:38,680
Speaker 12: The talent has carried him well.

763
00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:40,680
Speaker 4: I appreciate the call. I don't totally agree with that,

764
00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:43,040
Speaker 4: But here's what I think his brilliance is as a coach.

765
00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:45,320
Speaker 5: Let's give him a compliment.

766
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:48,680
Speaker 4: There ain't a better coach in the country who maybe

767
00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:53,120
Speaker 4: since John Wooden at taking talent, molding them, getting them

768
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:56,879
Speaker 4: to buy in, and making them work together. Right, he's

769
00:35:56,920 --> 00:36:01,560
Speaker 4: got sacrificing their individual stuff. He's great at that and

770
00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:04,080
Speaker 4: in his best he's been the best at that. He

771
00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:06,960
Speaker 4: got ten dudes, all of whom could have been stars,

772
00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:10,600
Speaker 4: for teams to agree to platoon and go thirty eight more.

773
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:16,400
Speaker 4: That's that's pretty good. Now what's happened in recent years?

774
00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:19,399
Speaker 4: To me, that's a different conversation. But I don't want

775
00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:21,160
Speaker 4: to like make it to where it's you just bag

776
00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:24,560
Speaker 4: on him, like he got ten guys, not eight of

777
00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:26,760
Speaker 4: whom played in the NBA, to agree to play twenty

778
00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:27,920
Speaker 4: minutes a game, and.

779
00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:30,680
Speaker 5: Devin Booker still brags about how he didn't start. That's crazy.

780
00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:34,040
Speaker 5: It's crazy. When you hear a waterfall in nature, that's

781
00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:35,640
Speaker 5: no cause for concern. But what if it's in your

Speaker 4: of the day, everybody will have seen that post true.

800
00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:32,640
Speaker 4: But I I can't really confirm almost any of that,

801
00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:33,279
Speaker 4: so I don't.

802
00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:33,759
Speaker 9: I don't know.

803
00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:36,000
Speaker 5: I usually hear a lot of gossip that one I

804
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:38,160
Speaker 5: had not heard before. Yeah, but I mean maybe I

805
00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:41,960
Speaker 5: have no idea. I don't know. One person Rights, Matt.

806
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,359
Speaker 4: You can't tell people how to fan if they don't

807
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:49,680
Speaker 4: want articles like Kyle's out because they're a distraction, that's okay. Well,

808
00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:53,319
Speaker 4: I guess it's okay. But then you wonder why we lose,

809
00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:58,480
Speaker 4: you know. I mean, here's the thing. If you don't

810
00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:01,600
Speaker 4: want to know how the sausage is made, I get that, right, Like,

811
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:05,040
Speaker 4: that's my view about when I buy food in grocery stores.

812
00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:08,040
Speaker 5: Don't tell me how it got there, you.

813
00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:10,160
Speaker 4: Know, I don't want to know, And maybe that's how

814
00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:12,640
Speaker 4: you'll be about basketball, right, Like maybe a fan's like

815
00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:14,480
Speaker 4: I don't want to know what's happening behind the scenes.

816
00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:16,520
Speaker 4: All I care about is whether they win or lose. Okay,

817
00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:19,440
Speaker 4: But then I don't think most people are like that.

818
00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,799
Speaker 4: I think most people want to know, like, why did

819
00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:23,680
Speaker 4: this not go well?

820
00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:26,560
Speaker 6: And correct me if I'm wrong. Didn't Kyle's article come

821
00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:29,759
Speaker 6: out in October before they even played one exhibition game?

822
00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:33,640
Speaker 5: Yes? And Kyle's article quoted five different people that were

823
00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:35,680
Speaker 5: on the staff, So.

824
00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:37,600
Speaker 6: That was even before this season even started.

825
00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:39,759
Speaker 5: Yeah, And I thought it was nice to some of them.

826
00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:42,160
Speaker 5: And I will note I'm.

827
00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:44,640
Speaker 4: Not saying these people were quoted in the article because

828
00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:46,240
Speaker 4: I have no idea because he didn't.

829
00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:47,200
Speaker 5: It's not like he told me.

830
00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:49,720
Speaker 4: But let me go look at some of the people

831
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:52,239
Speaker 4: that have left us in the last couple of years,

832
00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:53,319
Speaker 4: and let's see how they did.

833
00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:58,239
Speaker 5: Where Joe Justice go he'sidency state?

834
00:38:58,520 --> 00:38:59,960
Speaker 6: Where are they in Sweet sixteen?

835
00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:03,320
Speaker 5: Where did Jay Lucas go Duke Quickly?

836
00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:05,680
Speaker 6: And where are they Sweet sixteen?

837
00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:08,760
Speaker 5: Where did TJ. Bisner go North Carolina?

838
00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:11,400
Speaker 6: And where did where are they Sweet sixteen?

839
00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:16,520
Speaker 4: So you know, oftentimes it's very easy to sort of

840
00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:21,520
Speaker 4: blame the people that left. And let me say, I

841
00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:23,880
Speaker 4: like j Lucas and Buisner. I didn't really have a

842
00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:28,920
Speaker 4: great relationship with Justice. But the point is they're still playing, so.

843
00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:33,160
Speaker 5: You know, it is what it is. Forget our video

844
00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:35,680
Speaker 5: guy left to go to Temple there.

845
00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:39,640
Speaker 8: But I'm just saying, you're you're at Kentucky basketball and

846
00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:41,880
Speaker 8: you're looking around like, I bet it's better at Temple.

847
00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:46,320
Speaker 4: One person writes, uh, this for Shannon. Have you watched

848
00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:50,600
Speaker 4: the Tracker? Because I saw on basketball all weekend that

849
00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:51,920
Speaker 4: we needed to watch Tracker.

850
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:53,040
Speaker 5: Did you watch Tracker?

851
00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:53,360
Speaker 7: No?

852
00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:55,920
Speaker 5: I have not, have you No?

853
00:39:56,320 --> 00:39:59,360
Speaker 4: I know my friend the Turkey Hunter loves it and

854
00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:00,960
Speaker 4: I think it's kind of of a joke, but he's

855
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:02,160
Speaker 4: always like, I love the trip.

856
00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:04,080
Speaker 5: But like they advertised, that's the show.

857
00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:07,440
Speaker 4: If that show doesn't get good ratings from this tournament,

858
00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:08,279
Speaker 4: that I don't know what you do.

859
00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:09,840
Speaker 5: Because they talked about it every.

860
00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:13,400
Speaker 6: Five minutes every CBS commercial break. You got a promo

861
00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:13,919
Speaker 6: for that show?

862
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:14,719
Speaker 5: Did you see?

863
00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:17,919
Speaker 4: Rich Eisen asked DJ Burns yesterday when he got fat,

864
00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:21,200
Speaker 4: Oh wow, did he word it just like that?

865
00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:23,160
Speaker 5: And he said when did you put on all your

866
00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:25,640
Speaker 5: weight over the course of time?

867
00:40:25,880 --> 00:40:28,000
Speaker 4: And people in the comments section were like they should

868
00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:29,400
Speaker 4: have looked at rich Aisen go when.

869
00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:33,440
Speaker 5: Did you go ball? I thought that was it?

870
00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:38,320
Speaker 4: Like objectively, the reason we all like him is that size.

871
00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:40,440
Speaker 4: At the same time, though, do you have to like

872
00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:41,480
Speaker 4: throw it in his face?

873
00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:42,520
Speaker 5: You know?

874
00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:45,600
Speaker 8: I know we talked about faus can remember if we

875
00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:47,160
Speaker 8: said it on this show, But like when they brought

876
00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:49,719
Speaker 8: him to Sunday was on the EF he played? Well

877
00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:51,520
Speaker 8: did you take everyone in ice Cream Sunday?

878
00:40:51,560 --> 00:40:53,000
Speaker 5: How do they had a good game? I mean you

879
00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:53,440
Speaker 5: can tell.

880
00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:55,719
Speaker 4: DJ Burns is like, what why am I need a

881
00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:58,200
Speaker 4: Sunday Why? I mean, like, I don't get it, Shannon.

882
00:40:58,280 --> 00:40:59,879
Speaker 4: Why did they just throw it in his face?

883
00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:02,279
Speaker 3: You have all the questions to ask the guy who's

884
00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:04,880
Speaker 3: in the Sweet sixteen. You talk about his weight that

885
00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:06,680
Speaker 3: when when'd you get so big?

886
00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:07,000
Speaker 6: Yeah?

887
00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:08,440
Speaker 5: Always been a fatty?

888
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:11,160
Speaker 3: There any tactfulness at all?

889
00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:15,120
Speaker 5: I just feel like give it, Like, who's next? Fun

Speaker 4: Let's go to Larry Cream Abdul Jabbar in the final four?

Speaker 4: It's right, yeah, the n I t go ahead Jabbari Larry,

00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:23,160
Speaker 4: Larry or Jabari?

894
00:41:24,320 --> 00:41:25,080
Speaker 3: Where did that come from?

895
00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:25,880
Speaker 6: Larry?

896
00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:28,440
Speaker 5: Go ahead, Larry, Larry, go ahead, Larry.

897
00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:33,000
Speaker 3: Okay, Well let's go. Let's go to Bill.

898
00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:35,919
Speaker 5: Got about a minute, j Jill go ahead, Bill, Bill,

899
00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:38,680
Speaker 5: Okay to quick points one?

900
00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:40,239
Speaker 9: What do we do next year?

901
00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:48,800
Speaker 5: Take me off, speaker, Bill, No, but go ahead, Okay.

902
00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:49,280
Speaker 13: I'm sorry.

903
00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:52,279
Speaker 9: What happens if we go thirty two and two in

904
00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:55,440
Speaker 9: the SEC regular season in the tournament and lose in

905
00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:58,759
Speaker 9: the second game in a how do we evaluate that?

906
00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:01,439
Speaker 9: And secondly, I want to be king at the fact

907
00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:08,759
Speaker 9: if the tournament, it's a very simple tournament, I would

908
00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:10,520
Speaker 9: have been every dollar I had that we would beat

909
00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:12,560
Speaker 9: open one game.

910
00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:15,520
Speaker 5: Well, you can't judge I say this all the time.

911
00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:18,080
Speaker 4: You can't judge a coach by one tournament, but you

912
00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:22,040
Speaker 4: can judge a coach by fifteen or five. And that's

913
00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:24,320
Speaker 4: the issue. If we just lost to Oakland, not the

914
00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:25,839
Speaker 4: biggest thing in the world, but we lost to Saint

915
00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:27,680
Speaker 4: Peter's two years ago, We'll take a break.
