Speaker 4: right here with us great crowd of folks here watching

Speaker 4: First of all, UK baseball team yesterday beat Eastern sixteen
Speaker 4: to nothing, which I think is pretty good. The game
Speaker 4: today they were supposed to play again today here in Lexington.
Speaker 4: That game has gotten canceled due to it's supposed to
Speaker 4: be bad weather here apparently in a little while. So
Speaker 4: that game got canceled. But the UK baseball team is
Speaker 4: now what like eleven and one or something like, So, Drew, you've.
Speaker 5: Been seeing play a couple of times.
Speaker 4: I mean, they haven't played the hardest schedule, but do
Speaker 4: you think they're good?
Speaker 6: Well, I went to the two games where they scored
Speaker 6: like a combined thirty something runs. So in mys they're
Speaker 6: the best team to ever play baseball. But yeah, I'm
Speaker 6: still learning the personnel. I mean, outside of Berks and
Speaker 6: just a couple others, it is a brand new roster.
Speaker 6: But I think they have something we'll have to see
Speaker 6: when the competition picks up. I think they start SEC
Speaker 6: play next week at Georgia.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so the game they start SEC play, they'll actually
Speaker 4: get a hard schedule this year because they did well
Speaker 4: last year. So he's gonna get he's gonna get a
Speaker 4: test coming as he goes.
Speaker 7: They swept off to this last weekend. They've got another
Speaker 7: three game series with Monmouth. I believe it is who's
Speaker 7: coming in this weekend. Wafford Wafford. Yeah, Terriers tune up
Speaker 7: before they get into SEC play.
Speaker 4: Ellie day La Cruz is hitting four to seventy eight
Speaker 4: in the minor leagues. Matt McClean is hitting four forty three.
Speaker 4: Are you ready to join the Reds machine?
Speaker 6: I am not.
Speaker 7: I will I will take joy and ridicule you and
Speaker 7: you and the lady here in the Reds hat later
Speaker 7: in about a month.
Speaker 4: Don't listen to him. It's the summer of Elly. You
Speaker 4: can feel it in the air. Yesterday he had an
Speaker 4: opposite way triple. He never did that before. Like you
Speaker 4: just wait, next thing, You're not gonna Ellie's gonna be.
Speaker 4: Should we just calling the MVP, maybe even the Super
Speaker 4: Bowl MVP.
Speaker 6: I'm still running with the brave. We've got a new picture.
Speaker 6: He is Kenny Powers. I don't know if you have
Speaker 6: seen him.
Speaker 5: Nobody cares about that. We're talking about Ellie Day.
Speaker 6: In the playoff.
Speaker 5: This woman right here, she cares about Elie. Thank you
Speaker 5: very much.
Speaker 7: Both both got your red.
Speaker 4: Did any of you watch the State of the Union
Speaker 4: yelling and screaming and holding up signs. It was kind
Speaker 4: of an embarrassing display all the way around.
Speaker 7: What happened? Did some guy with a cane stand up?
Speaker 7: And when they had escorty mount or something?
Speaker 4: I mean for people like Mario's too young. When I
Speaker 4: was a kid, the State of the Union was supposed
Speaker 4: to be like a non political thing, like it was
Speaker 4: literally the.
Speaker 5: State of the Union.
Speaker 4: You got up to say what the state of the
Speaker 4: Union was, and so they would always go, the state
Speaker 4: of the Union is strong, and everybody would yeah, well
Speaker 4: now it's it's not that now whoever's president, it's a
Speaker 4: political speech.
Speaker 5: So it becomes a political rally.
Speaker 4: And then we started a few years ago with that
Speaker 4: one dude from South Carolina that yelled at Obama. Then
Speaker 4: last night this dude acted a fool and yelled at
Speaker 4: yelled at Trump. It's just I it's it's become it's
Speaker 4: become a joke, and I actually, I mean, it's in
Speaker 4: the Constitution that you have to do it, so they're
Speaker 4: gonna keep doing it. But I actually think they should
Speaker 4: stop doing it because it's just it's embarrassing. It's embarrassing,
Speaker 4: like it's become it's become like a political rally where
Speaker 4: the other side has to sit there and you all
Speaker 4: just end up yelling at each other. And I just
Speaker 4: think it's stupid.
Speaker 7: These are the leaders of our country and they're getting
Speaker 7: together their children acting like second graders.
Speaker 4: They are like they are children. I mean, I'm a Democrat,
Speaker 4: but like, what are you doing holding up signs like
Speaker 4: you're in a Brazilian steakhouse when you don't like stuff?
Speaker 4: Like just shut up? And and you know the Trumps
Speaker 4: up there talking about Biden. Biden's out, like you know,
Speaker 4: just these this used to be that used to be like.
Speaker 5: A dignified thing.
Speaker 4: The Supreme Supreme Court should stop coming they It's just
Speaker 4: it's stupid. It really annoys me because I I used
Speaker 4: to really like that. Now I haven't watched one year's
Speaker 4: but I did see the kicked the guy out. He
Speaker 4: just got up star yelling like you can't just get
Speaker 4: them to start yelling during the thing like this is
Speaker 4: not this is not you know, fancy farm, like it's
Speaker 4: it's the United States.
Speaker 5: It's Congress in the Senate.
Speaker 6: I did not see the State of the Union. But
Speaker 6: what you just describe sounds just like politics to me.
Speaker 5: That's the t But it is it's supposed to be.
Speaker 4: Like my mom used to always say, people need to
Speaker 4: rise to the occasion. Nobody rises to the occasion. Now
Speaker 4: everything is just an excuse to yell at each other.
Speaker 4: And I hate it.
Speaker 5: I do. I hate it.
Speaker 4: It's become a television show and that's not what it's
Speaker 4: supposed to be like.
Speaker 7: But you're right, you know, when we were younger it
Speaker 7: came on, you had to watch it because all the
Speaker 7: networks carried it. But we were at least it was
Speaker 7: some sort of respectful platform where they, you know, you
Speaker 7: got to find out what's going on with our country.
Speaker 4: It has become and I think if a lot of
Speaker 4: people are honest about this, they would agree it has
Speaker 4: become to where like we're getting to the point that
Speaker 4: we hate each other more than we do other places,
Speaker 4: Like we'd rather we'd rather score one on our fellow
Speaker 4: countrymen than like b unif it used to be what
Speaker 4: was the same politics stopped at the border, like we
Speaker 4: were all.
Speaker 5: On the same side after and that's changed. I hate it.
Speaker 4: So last night to me was a symbol of that.
Speaker 4: But yeah, that dude got up with a cane and
Speaker 4: just started shaking it like he was mister Burns screaming.
Speaker 6: Sounds like the circus that goes on every day unfortunately.
Speaker 4: And listen, I love older people, but like, we gotta
Speaker 4: like I looked at the crowd.
Speaker 5: I mean, my goodness, like, we gotta get some younger people.
Speaker 5: I just saw the story. It's really sad.
Speaker 4: But like there was this congress woman and she was
Speaker 4: like eighty four and she passed away, so they appointed
Speaker 4: somebody to pick her seat, and they pointed somebody like
Speaker 4: eighty two, and she just passed away too. Did they
Speaker 4: not think that somebody who died in office maybe get
Speaker 4: somebody younger than eighty.
Speaker 5: For the for the replacement.
Speaker 7: I'm a little leary if they're coming to me for
Speaker 7: that replacement, then they offer to I do.
Speaker 5: Think they're not gonna come to you. Actually, when the.
Speaker 7: They say, you said they need some younger people in
Speaker 7: kng in our government. You think you're one of them, Well,
Speaker 7: there's a seat opening here in Kentucky that maybe you
Speaker 7: might be interested in make a run at for what
Speaker 7: Mitch McConnell's plays.
Speaker 5: Shut up, Will you stop with that?
Speaker 4: Uh?
Speaker 5: Kevin Boyle? Do you know who Kevin Boyle is? It
Speaker 5: seems like I know that name anybody? Does anybody in
Speaker 5: here know who Kevin Boyle is? It's a good chance.
Speaker 4: Kevin Boyle is the best high school basketball coach in
Speaker 4: the country. He coaches Monte Verde Academy, and he coached
Speaker 4: Cooper Flagg. He coached Liam mcne He's put something like
Speaker 4: forty five dudes in the NBA or in college basketball
Speaker 4: at the Power Conference in the last fourteen years.
Speaker 5: He is very.
Speaker 4: Close with Mark Pope, even though they actually I don't
Speaker 4: know if he's sent him a player.
Speaker 5: They are friends his assistants.
Speaker 4: I think Alvin Brooks, one of our assistants, is like
Speaker 4: in it with all those guys. Here's why I'm bringing
Speaker 4: it up. He's coached Monte Verdy Academy for fourteen years
Speaker 4: in Florida. He is taking a new job at a
Speaker 4: new school just north of Cincinnati. Basically he's trying to
Speaker 4: make the best prep school for basketball in America just
Speaker 4: north of Cincinnati. And apparently whoever's funding this school is
Speaker 4: putting all this money into it now that you can
Speaker 4: do nil. I think they're trying to make it like it's,
Speaker 4: you know, a college basketball team in high school.
Speaker 5: Why should you care about that?
Speaker 4: I can't imagine, Drew, it's bad for Kentucky basketball. If
Speaker 4: the best high school players in America are just gonna
Speaker 4: be playing just an hour a north of us in Cincinnati,
Speaker 4: I would think that would probably be pretty good easy
Speaker 4: to get him on campus.
Speaker 6: I think that's some pretty good news for Kidduck. I
Speaker 6: think that's great news. That's a place that just puts out,
Speaker 6: you know, big time recruits. Several big NBA names went
Speaker 6: to that school. So if you're gonna tell me he's
Speaker 6: moving his operations to just across the river, that absolutely
Speaker 6: helps Kentucky get some of these guys.
Speaker 4: I mean, Florida's not terribly far, but but if you
Speaker 4: can make it to where you just get in a
Speaker 4: car and you can come to RUP, those dudes may
Speaker 4: be coming to a ton of our games. I mean,
Speaker 4: I think you're good. I can't I just think having
Speaker 4: you know, he had like four of the top twenty
Speaker 4: players in America last year. Having four of the top
Speaker 4: twenty players in America, you know, able to meet me
Speaker 4: at a Reds game, I think is probably a pretty
Speaker 4: good thing, right.
Speaker 7: And at the coach Hardy has a great relationship with
Speaker 7: Brooks and Pope and our coaching staff. Absolutely, his players
Speaker 7: were down here for practices, games, big blue white games, everything,
Speaker 7: pro day. They'll be down here all the time.
Speaker 4: There was a moment last year where I thought the
Speaker 4: last assistance job at Kentucky might.
Speaker 5: Have gone to him.
Speaker 4: That ended up not, but there was a moment that
Speaker 4: I thought he might be the last assistant. So I
Speaker 4: think that's actually a small piece of news, but really
Speaker 4: good news for Kentucky.
Speaker 6: And I like this situation being better than assistant him
Speaker 6: just packing up and being a little over an hour away.
Speaker 5: Totally agree with you.
Speaker 6: I think we got Dakari from there. I'm trying to
Speaker 6: think of Kentucky players right. For some reason, that one
Speaker 6: pops in my head. But there's a lot of big
Speaker 6: names that have come through that.
Speaker 4: And then finally the SEC basically they had these meetings.
Speaker 4: It looked like we were gonna go to a nine
Speaker 4: team schedule. Nine game SEC schedule didn't happen. Greg Sankie
Speaker 4: basically said this, if they expand the playoff, we're going
Speaker 4: to nine games.
Speaker 5: If we don't expand the playoff, we're not. Which would
Speaker 5: you prefer.
Speaker 7: Just for Kentucky's sake, I prefer not to go to
Speaker 7: nine SEC games.
Speaker 5: I mean, but we have a better chance the playoff
Speaker 5: if they expand it.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I would probably even like Mark, he said after
Speaker 7: they played those ten SEC games in the COVID year,
Speaker 7: he goes, my goodness, that was the roughest schedule I've
Speaker 7: ever seen in my life. I hadn't played ten SEC
Speaker 7: games all. I would vote for an eight.
Speaker 4: By the way, people have asked me about having Mark
Speaker 4: Stoops on the show. I think we're gonna have that
Speaker 4: next week before the SEC Tournament. We were working to
Speaker 4: have it tomorrow, but then we got they can't do
Speaker 4: it here, and we got Owen County High School coming
Speaker 4: tomorrow and so I need to be here. So we've
Speaker 4: pushed off to It'll probably be early next week. Part
Speaker 4: of it depends on when Kentucky ends up playing in
Speaker 4: the SEC Tournament, but will probably Drew be able to
Speaker 4: finally have that Mark Stoops interview, and I'm gonna tell
Speaker 4: you when we have it, I look forward to talking
Speaker 4: to him. I haven't really spoken to him since the
Speaker 4: end of the year, except for two minutes on the phone,
Speaker 4: But I do plan on sort of asking a lot
Speaker 4: of the questions that fans want asked. I give him
Speaker 4: credit for wanting to come on, but you know, there's
Speaker 4: some stuff we.
Speaker 5: Have to ask, right.
Speaker 6: Absolutely, we want him a little sooner. But they had
Speaker 6: a busy offseason. I guess I had his ankle surgery,
Speaker 6: been traveling, you know, full time with that job. Now
Speaker 6: he just did a press conference last week, so he's
Speaker 6: starting to get back in the flow and doing media interviews,
Speaker 6: which I think he really needs to do for a
Speaker 6: springball starts here in a few weeks.
Speaker 4: How do you think if you were being Mark Stoops's
Speaker 4: pr head A serious question, Ryan, what would you tell
Speaker 4: him to do between now and the start of the season, Like,
Speaker 4: is there anything he can do to get this fan
Speaker 4: base excited next year? Or is there nothing he can do?
Speaker 4: And everybody's gonna be like you when you were like,
Speaker 4: I don't know, there's some.
Speaker 7: Certain things he needs to say for me, if you're
Speaker 7: talking about you know.
Speaker 5: Let's say you were here, what would you tell him.
Speaker 7: He needs to say, you need to own up to
Speaker 7: every bad thing that's happened, and don't try to make
Speaker 7: excuses for it. You know, was last year was a
Speaker 7: bad year. You haven't won an SEC one SEC football
Speaker 7: home game in two years. You got to own up
Speaker 7: to that.
Speaker 4: And you can't say, I'm not trying to make an excuse,
Speaker 4: but and then make an excuse one hundred which is
Speaker 4: one of the things I love him, but that's one
Speaker 4: of the things he does. I'm not making an excuse
Speaker 4: followed by an excuse, So like that needs to not
Speaker 4: have what else?
Speaker 7: And I want to hear him tell me that it's
Speaker 7: not gonna happen again, you know, and we're gonna change,
Speaker 7: We're gonna get better. I want to he's good at
Speaker 7: that too. He can make us believe as a fan
Speaker 7: base everything he says about what he's doing for the program.
Speaker 7: Just don't make excuses why things didn't happen.
Speaker 6: He's already kind of addressed that they let the culture
Speaker 6: sleep slip a little bit. But I'd almost need him
Speaker 6: to give me examples of what is change that's gonna
Speaker 6: keep it for having me again, whether it be if
Speaker 6: you're late for practice, this happens, or you know, I
Speaker 6: don't know what made it lead to what it was,
Speaker 6: but I need to see some actual or hear's some
Speaker 6: things they're actively doing to make sure it's improving.
Speaker 4: I think the more I talk to people about last year,
Speaker 4: and this includes people who are very strong Stoops loyalists,
Speaker 4: which honestly, I think almost everyone that works at UK
Speaker 4: in the football department is a strong Stoops loyalist. But
Speaker 4: the more I heard about it, the more I think
Speaker 4: the culture just collapsed last year.
Speaker 5: It did.
Speaker 4: I think it had been slipping for a couple of years.
Speaker 4: I think it collapsed last year. I think off the field,
Speaker 4: and I don't mean guys getting in trouble. I just
Speaker 4: mean like work ethic practice, this thing that he had
Speaker 4: built that that was really the strength of the program.
Speaker 4: He They let last year Ryan collapse and they're gonna
Speaker 4: have to build it back quick.
Speaker 7: And I want to hear him say that and admit
Speaker 7: that tell me that there were gonna make changes. It
Speaker 7: doesn't matter if you're one of the star players or
Speaker 7: if you're a walk on. You're all gonna get treated
Speaker 7: the exact same. You have to attend workout, you have
Speaker 7: to attend film sessions, you have to attend practice. Everything
Speaker 7: has to be in.
Speaker 4: One of the good things about the portal and about
Speaker 4: being able to switch the entire staff or excuse me,
Speaker 4: entire players, is if you had bad culture, it can
Speaker 4: get out right. If you don't have the portal, you
Speaker 4: can't necessarily even do that.
Speaker 6: And one thing I think he has already said that
Speaker 6: they're doing this year. In years past, when he said
Speaker 6: people would come in from the portal, they didn't want
Speaker 6: them to come over and just be leaders. Even Will
Speaker 6: Levis stayed quiet for a while. They wanted to keep
Speaker 6: the returning guys.
Speaker 5: Of the leaders in the locker anymore.
Speaker 6: This year he's pretty much said, the guys in the
Speaker 6: portal so old. I got married guys. They're coming in
Speaker 6: and I'm telling them, this is your locker room. I'm
Speaker 6: sorry to the ones over here last year. But he's
Speaker 6: letting some of the new guys go ahead and lead
Speaker 6: right away.
Speaker 5: I love that.
Speaker 4: Uh DraftKings, by the way, you know our friend here
Speaker 4: on KSR barstool, big Cat, he is eleven to zero
Speaker 4: in his picks in March, one of which was the
Speaker 4: Kentucky game. Last night he had the Kentucky LSU over,
Speaker 4: and if you saw how bad LSU is playing at
Speaker 4: the beginning, you would have thought there's no way there's
Speaker 4: an over. And then Trent Noah hit a layup with
Speaker 4: twenty seconds to go to hit the over to help
Speaker 4: him be eleven. And oh, you can follow his picks
Speaker 4: or ours which have been okay, but you can go
Speaker 4: to DraftKings Sports Book use a promo code KSR bet
Speaker 4: five with one hundred and fifty dollars.
Speaker 5: I think I don't think.
Speaker 4: I think he's speaking one to night as well, maybe
Speaker 4: to go twelve to zero. So go to DraftKings. The
Speaker 4: crown is yours. If you have a game in problem
Speaker 4: called one hundred game or eighteen plus Kentucky only helge
Speaker 4: bar sting spply and because it was only bonepits fire
Speaker 4: one hundred sixty eight hours of treasuance for traditional terms,

Speaker 4: the regional tournaments. Anything important happened? You're my high school
Speaker 4: basketball Officianado.
Speaker 7: Well, I was kind of tied up with the Kentucky
Speaker 7: game last night, but I know Frederick Douglas beat Madison Central.
Speaker 7: So now they play Lexton Catholic in the semifinals and
Speaker 7: Great Crossing is going to play Branch Station.
Speaker 4: I think mal Chaimarno our future big man. I think
Speaker 4: he had a really good game last night. I saw
Speaker 4: ESPN recruits tweeted about his game. He had like eighteen
Speaker 4: and fifteen or something.
Speaker 7: He's he's really, i mean really been playing great this
Speaker 7: last month. Like he has stepped up his game, double
Speaker 7: doubles all the time.
Speaker 5: Yeah, No, he's he's been. He's been excellent.
Speaker 4: One person rights, Matt, I'd like each of you to
Speaker 4: pick outside of Auburn Duke in Houston, the one team
Speaker 4: you would want to play the least in the NCAA tournament.
Speaker 7: Well, we discussed this not long ago where we think
Speaker 7: we all picked Houston would be the.
Speaker 4: One outside of Auburn Duke in Houston Oh, I didn't
Speaker 4: catch that. Yeah, you didn't catch the last thing I said.
Speaker 4: Outside of Auburn Duke in Houston. What would be the
Speaker 4: team that you would want to play the least?
Speaker 3: Saint John's Right now? For me, that's a Good Johns.
Speaker 3: I don't want to see on that team now. I
Speaker 3: think they are on a roll right now. They can't
Speaker 3: shoot the ball very well, but they're good defenders. I
Speaker 3: think that would be a real problem for us.
Speaker 5: I'm okay with Saint John's.
Speaker 4: I feel like the teams we've played this year that
Speaker 4: their strength is defense, dree that's been our We've actually
Speaker 4: done all right against those teams. I think we struggle
Speaker 4: with these teams that can score a lot. So I
Speaker 4: actually would want to stay away from in the NCAA
Speaker 4: tournament like Alabama because I just think it's gonna be hard.
Speaker 5: I just don't know.
Speaker 4: If I don't know the group that we have, we
Speaker 4: can just I don't think we can score enough points.
Speaker 4: Whereas when we've played at Tennessee. We've actually played Tennessee.
Speaker 4: To me, is the team in the SEC most like
Speaker 4: Saint John's and we've actually played them pretty well?
Speaker 5: What about you?
Speaker 6: I was actually leaning towards Florida, even though we already
Speaker 6: beat them. They scored a ton of points and that
Speaker 6: was in Repperina's best atmosphere of the season. So I
Speaker 6: think a rematch with that, I don't know if it
Speaker 6: go as well as for Kentucky.
Speaker 5: I what about you?
Speaker 7: I would probably say Alabama because their dudes are just
Speaker 7: better than our dudes. We played pretty well against them,
Speaker 7: and still they beat us twice.
Speaker 4: I think we've played well against him twice and won
Speaker 4: neither time. Yeah, and they beat us both times in
Speaker 4: completely different ways. They beat us the first time on
Speaker 4: the boards and kind of killing us inside, and then
Speaker 4: they beat us the second time on the outside. I
Speaker 4: just maybe we can beat Alabama, but I don't know.
Speaker 4: I think that's gonna be. We just gotta hope that
Speaker 4: if we're gonna beat them, they got to be ice cold.
Speaker 6: Winn or lose playing Alabama again. I just can't watch
Speaker 6: Mark Series play basketball.
Speaker 7: It wasn't just our.
Speaker 6: Game against Tennessee the other day. He just he throws
Speaker 6: that head back and they bowl the whistle every time.
Speaker 6: He's so good at acting and getting that kind of
Speaker 6: Trey flock to Trey Young, just throw my body back.
Speaker 4: Can we give a shout out to the officials last
Speaker 4: night for having a game to win an hour in
Speaker 4: forty five minutes and calling any foul like that was
Speaker 4: the best flowing game we've had in forever.
Speaker 5: Then, I don't know. I don't think I knew any
Speaker 5: of the three officials, which is probably a good thing.
Speaker 7: Congratulation to them. And thankfully they called that foul at
Speaker 7: point two seconds on the clock to set up that
Speaker 7: great moment we had last night with the walk on.
Speaker 7: They could have let that go. Nope, we're gonna call it.
Speaker 4: That was the quickest game was over in an hour
Speaker 4: and forty minutes. That's the quickest game we've had all year.
Speaker 5: Oh loved it.
Speaker 6: Halftime I was tweeting out the stats. The best stat
Speaker 6: was zero monitor reviews to the first half. I did it,
Speaker 6: and they might have had one. They stayed away from
Speaker 6: the first half.
Speaker 5: Neither team even got in the bonus. So, you know,
Speaker 5: let him play, let him play.
Speaker 7: Let a lot up and down the court there for
Speaker 7: a long time.
Speaker 5: Who's up next, Shannon, Jamie, Jamie, go ahead, Jamie.
Speaker 8: Hey, I've seen a lot of rumors about Alvin Brooks
Speaker 8: leaving YEP and I was just kind of wanting to
Speaker 8: get your opinion on that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he'll leave. Alvin Brooks will leave when he gets
Speaker 4: a good job. I mean he's gonna be He is
Speaker 4: one of the better recruiters in the country. You know,
Speaker 4: any good assistant coach, the first time they get a
Speaker 4: chance to get a really good job, they're gonna go.
Speaker 5: So Alvin Brooks will leave out here. That's what I'm
Speaker 5: happy about.
Speaker 4: Mark Pope will go find somebody like Alvin Brooks to
Speaker 4: replace Alvin Brooks. I don't think he's I think one
Speaker 4: of the things that happened with Cal is he just
Speaker 4: would hire his friends that had failed at other jobs
Speaker 4: and then bring him here.
Speaker 5: I don't think Mark Pope's gonna do that.
Speaker 4: I think Mark Pope's gonna go get the young, up
Speaker 4: and coming assistance. Mark Fox is his kind of career guy.
Speaker 4: I don't think you're gonna have to worry about what
Speaker 4: I worried about with Cow, which was that staff of
Speaker 4: old dudes that just failed everywhere else.
Speaker 8: As a from the thirteenth region, can you tell me
Speaker 8: where McKee is?
Speaker 5: Yeah, McKee is in Jackson County. What are you talking about? Wow?
Speaker 4: Wow?
Speaker 8: Oh yeah, thanks appreciate call.
Speaker 4: How am I not gonna know? Mckinn We had a
Speaker 4: woman here from Jackson County just today.
Speaker 5: Yes we did. Yes, Uh that was here.
Speaker 7: Got one of the best little hole in the wall
Speaker 7: restaurants in southeastern Kentucky. You gotta walk up to the
Speaker 7: window in order that don't have a drive through. They'll
Speaker 7: have table and chairs. You walk up to the window
Speaker 7: and get your food.
Speaker 5: Is that right? Yes?
Speaker 7: And at the best chicken sandwiches ever?
Speaker 5: What what? What is?
Speaker 7: What place is that? It's in McKee. It's in a
Speaker 7: little like strip mall, in a strip mall and McKee. Well,
Speaker 7: I guess that's what they call it. There's like two
Speaker 7: couple of buildings together and then you walk up to it.
Speaker 4: Oh okay, I never remember that. I remember being at
Speaker 4: the place where Ram Paul was at the same time,
Speaker 4: but that was a different restaurant. Who's up next, Carter?
Speaker 5: Carter? Go ahead, Carter, Hight what's up? Matt?
Speaker 8: First time?
Speaker 5: Who what's up?
Speaker 6: I was just gonna see if you would rather have
Speaker 6: Nate a min or A very good transfer.
Speaker 4: Great question. Appreciate the call, Drew. Would you rather have
Speaker 4: top four top five in America? Nate a min join
Speaker 4: the team next year, or would you rather have one
Speaker 4: of the three best dudes in the portal.
Speaker 6: That's a very good question, because Aileen wanting the experience,
Speaker 6: but also Pope making a big splash with a top
Speaker 6: five recruit who is considering Arkansas, Tennessee duke in Louisville.
Speaker 6: That would make me very happy too. I think I'm
Speaker 6: gonna lean ament in this one scenario because I've heard
Speaker 6: the people that follow it closely say in other years
Speaker 6: he could be the number one overall. I think he
Speaker 6: might be that top tier that we've said for many
Speaker 6: years was lacking at the end of Cal's era. I
Speaker 6: think he might be in that group. So in this
Speaker 6: one I'll go Amen. Usually the experience I would take first,
Speaker 6: so there are years I would pick a night Amen.
Speaker 6: But if I assume we bring all three freshmen back,
Speaker 6: which maybe they don't, but I'm gonna assume they do,
Speaker 6: and we already have three freshmen committed, so this would
Speaker 6: be seven guys that are sophomores or under. If you
Speaker 6: promise me, I get one of the best dudes in
Speaker 6: the portal.
Speaker 4: I think this year, Ryan, I'm taking a dude in
Speaker 4: the portal. If you promise me. Now, if like it's
Speaker 4: up in the air, then I don't then know. But
Speaker 4: if you promise me I could get one of the
Speaker 4: top two or three dudes in the portal, I think
Speaker 4: I would take that.
Speaker 7: I think the way you look at the roster of
Speaker 7: the way it is coming in, you need a good
Speaker 7: five or a good point guard. And if one of
Speaker 7: those guys are available, I think you got to get
Speaker 7: that guy. I would probably vote the transfer portal guy.
Speaker 4: I mean cause if you if you bring in night Amen,
Speaker 4: that means you're starters next year. You're certainly gonna start
Speaker 4: Away Ament and Jasper Johnson. And the question is, is
Speaker 4: that three of the five of a national championship or
Speaker 4: final four team. Maybe, but you better make sure you
Speaker 4: have enough to go get those two studs in the portal.
Speaker 4: So I think I'd rather get the portal. But if
Speaker 4: we get him, I ain't gonna complain. I mean, I'm
Speaker 4: still good because he will be the best recruit Mark
Speaker 4: Pope's ever gotten.
Speaker 5: We'll take a break and be right back. It's KSR. TJ.
Speaker 1: Smith, personal injury attorney.
Speaker 5: Call TJ.
Speaker 3: He'll make them pay now. More of Kentucky Sports Radio
Speaker 3: presented by Stockton Mortgage. Here's Matt Jones.
Speaker 4: Welcome back Kentucky Sports Radio. Here Live, it's KS Bar
Speaker 4: and Grill. If I'm nine, two eighth, twenty two eighty seven,
Speaker 4: Wings Day all Day and tonight dollar Wings. We got
Speaker 4: trivia tonight Mario, right, not me, but another fine gentleman
Speaker 4: or woman doing it. And then tomorrow we'll be back
Speaker 4: here again with there'll be I guess a high school here.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Mario.
Speaker 4: When we send him to Owen County to find something
Speaker 4: to do, he ended up making a big bunch of friends.
Speaker 5: So there you go.
Speaker 6: Typical Mario. Send him off on a little assignment and
Speaker 6: he makes friends with everyone invites him to come back
Speaker 6: with him.
Speaker 7: I love the fact the schools they start taking a
Speaker 7: field trip. Let's go to KS Bar and watch the show.
Speaker 5: I love that.
Speaker 4: I think it's great. But it's an education moment. The
Speaker 4: Harald Leader. If you ever wondered if the Herald Leader.
Speaker 4: I've become convinced The Herald Leader like it's owned now
Speaker 4: by National Corporation, and I've become one hundred percent convinced.
Speaker 5: And this is not a.
Speaker 4: Blast on the writers there, because we have a former
Speaker 4: KSR writer that writes there. Ben Roberts does a good
Speaker 4: job for basketball. Janet Patton, Austin Horn like I like
Speaker 4: all those people. They're doing the best they can. But
Speaker 4: the owners are no longer in Kentucky, and the owners
Speaker 4: have no connection to Kentucky. Here's how I know this.
Speaker 4: Kentucky plays basketball last night plays lsu It's and this
Speaker 4: is the tweet that comes out I see right before
Speaker 4: I go to bed, Lexing hair leader in a mostly
Speaker 4: forgettable ACC men's basketball season on Tobacco Road. At least
Speaker 4: we've had duke. You are the Lexington newspaper using the
Speaker 4: phrase at least we have duke.
Speaker 6: If I'm John Clay or Mark Story is someone, I'm
Speaker 6: calling him up and being like, what are we doing?
Speaker 5: Oh wait, they deleted it. Oh they deleted.
Speaker 7: Somebody must have really complained.
Speaker 4: Well they should have deleted. How in the world do
Speaker 4: you write at least we have duke. They had not
Speaker 4: deleted it this morning, so they deleted it today.
Speaker 5: Well it's about time. I mean, I can't anybody.
Speaker 4: I'm sure it's just a kid or even an AI
Speaker 4: or algorithm doing it, But you have to have some
Speaker 4: sense that you are in Lexington Kentucky saying at least
Speaker 4: we have Duke like.
Speaker 5: I'd say half.
Speaker 4: The subscribers to the hair Old for some reason, sports
Speaker 4: were part of it. And you're gonna say at least
Speaker 4: we have Duke like, are you crazy?
Speaker 7: The newspaper industry is a dying industry anyway, and now
Speaker 7: you're just pushing more people away with stuff like that happening.
Speaker 6: I was a subscriber for a long time, even when
Speaker 6: I had passwords and other accounts I could have used.
Speaker 6: I still paid my money every month, but it got
Speaker 6: so expensive in the quality. Not the writers here, but
Speaker 6: like you get on and it's some story about something
Speaker 6: in Seattle, or these five fruits will make you lose
Speaker 6: forty pounds today.
Speaker 4: Do wonder what those fruits are though that'll make you
Speaker 4: lose lose forty pounds.
Speaker 5: It's mostly spam.
Speaker 3: I'm afraid to click that stuff. I thought maybe we
Speaker 3: were just turning into like duke fans here in Kentucky.
Speaker 3: You know, yesterday we were picking our favorite duke players
Speaker 3: and then you had that headline. So I don't know.
Speaker 4: I will say this, what's what's interesting to me, and
Speaker 4: I don't root for their downfall. I actually think it's
Speaker 4: really important for there to be local journalism, like who's
Speaker 4: gonna cover when the city government is corrupt or the
Speaker 4: state go You need someone to cover that. So I
Speaker 4: don't want to see them go away. But I will
Speaker 4: note this. When I started KSR, there were things we
Speaker 4: used to do to get traffic and attention that the
Speaker 4: Herald Leader not only would mock me about, they would
Speaker 4: use it as an argument to why I shouldn't get credentialed.
Speaker 4: On the phone with the editors, he would say, this
Speaker 4: proves you're not a journalist, and he would cite things,
Speaker 4: and now they do every single one of them, every
Speaker 4: single one of them.
Speaker 5: We used to have this thing where.
Speaker 4: Like stories like five fruits that will make you, you know,
Speaker 4: get rid of thirty pounds. We used to have those
Speaker 4: on our site and I remember the editor going, see,
Speaker 4: you're not a journalist if you take that stuff. And
Speaker 4: now that's on their side, and guess what, it's not
Speaker 4: even on our site anymore. Like we've become more professional
Speaker 4: and they've become less professional, and I do it's just
Speaker 4: fascinating to watch times have changed.
Speaker 6: So much, even just little things like on the blog,
Speaker 6: would just post the transcript of a press conference, and
Speaker 6: I don't think people like that. Now they do it everybody.
Speaker 6: They've become those sports blogs like they used.
Speaker 4: To criticize us for except fans of the day, they
Speaker 4: do the exact same thing now, which is fascinating to me.
Speaker 5: Who's next, Mike, Mike.
Speaker 9: Go ahead, Mike, Yeah, I was gonna you asked a
Speaker 9: question earlier. While we think Mark Hope loses these games,
Speaker 9: he shouldn't then win somebody should. And I think it
Speaker 9: goes back to what we've been talking about a week.
Speaker 9: When they overperformed, they do really well, and when they don't,
Speaker 9: you know, they lose. And I just wanted to ask you,
Speaker 9: do you think that he's too stubborn to change it?
Speaker 9: I mean, because you know I.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't.
Speaker 4: I don't get the sense with Mark Pope that he
Speaker 4: is stubborn, do you all?
Speaker 5: I mean, I I don't.
Speaker 4: I think he is wedded to the numbers, but I
Speaker 4: don't think he's stubborn. I think if the numbers told
Speaker 4: him to change, like with John cal Perry, it wouldn't
Speaker 4: have mattered what the numbers said. He believed one thing
Speaker 4: and that's what he was gonna do.
Speaker 9: With Mark Pope, I no, go ahead, I think you
Speaker 9: know we're talking about Alabama. I think and lexing, can
Speaker 9: we beat Alabama if you don't have seven minutes of
Speaker 9: a freshman garden sears? And that's for two reasons why
Speaker 9: he's just not basically told you that he doesn't get
Speaker 9: the respect to the referees.
Speaker 4: No, he doesn't, and I appreciate the call. Do you
Speaker 4: think do you think Pope with the lineups? Is that
Speaker 4: gonna be an issue? Because I did get I did
Speaker 4: feel better about the fact in the second half he
Speaker 4: did not line change at any point in that second
Speaker 4: half until the very end.
Speaker 5: He had good guys in the whole time.
Speaker 6: That first line change I still wonder about. But you know,
Speaker 6: going back to early in SEC play, we were wondering
Speaker 6: why he was playing a lot of the guys he
Speaker 6: was so many minutes and pretty much all of them
Speaker 6: if played a lot better, including Colin Chandler last night.
Speaker 6: If if some of the end of the bench makes
Speaker 6: plays in Nashville and the NSAA tournament, we can look
Speaker 6: to when we question his lineups against Texas or named
Speaker 6: the team and say that, you know, he trusted getting
Speaker 6: those guys minutes, even if it was a little detrimental
Speaker 6: at the time to get him to be better at
Speaker 6: the end of the year.
Speaker 5: But I don't mind that they have minutes. I don't
Speaker 5: want them to all play together.
Speaker 4: And I don't think it's too much to ask, Like
Speaker 4: you don't, I don't care for Like, let's use last
Speaker 4: night's example. You start with the starters, you get up
Speaker 4: I think six or eight. Then he takes Bray out
Speaker 4: and puts Noah in. So it's the starters in Noah
Speaker 4: and you know what, that worked pretty well, but it
Speaker 4: was the moment. Then he took all the starters out
Speaker 4: and put in the reserves when things collapsed. I don't
Speaker 4: mind one or two, you got a sub some, but
Speaker 4: you don't have to put them all in at once.
Speaker 7: Like you said, I'm sure he's got analytics, and that's
Speaker 7: what he does. He bases I think everything he does
Speaker 7: on the numbers and analytics, and of analytics he believes
Speaker 7: tells him. I need to give these guys some rest
Speaker 7: so I get quality minutes late in the game, but
Speaker 7: only to play together.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you don't have to play all those guys. It
Speaker 4: also doesn't like if think about the Alabama game, Travis
Speaker 4: Perry had some good minutes when it was the starters
Speaker 4: and Travis Perry. It puts Perry in a much better
Speaker 4: situation if he's out there with O Way and and
Speaker 4: you know Carr and Williams than if he has to.
Speaker 5: Play with the reserves. Right.
Speaker 6: Yeah, And sometimes I wonder if he's too stubborn to
Speaker 6: his plan in the analytics when sometimes you just gotta
Speaker 6: read the situation, Like there's been times the starters have
Speaker 6: started absolutely on fire and he's still made the switch.
Speaker 6: You gotta realize you're up sixteen to two and the
Speaker 6: other team's terrified right now, let those guys keep putting
Speaker 6: their foot on the gas and then he's made subs
Speaker 6: and we've seen the lead go away or maybe not
Speaker 6: calling tom outs and times things like that.
Speaker 4: Early enough, we see a lot where we go on
Speaker 4: a run other teams coach calls time out, and then.
Speaker 5: We completely change our line. YEP.
Speaker 4: I mean part of what I would argue is you
Speaker 4: just gotta time out. They just got some rest.
Speaker 5: Play.
Speaker 4: They're doing really well, right, and they're doing really well,
Speaker 4: like it's that when that other team called. If I'm
Speaker 4: a coach playing coaching gets pope and there's a lineup
Speaker 4: I don't like I call time out, just put somebody
Speaker 4: else in.
Speaker 6: Yeah, maybe I'm misremembering this because I haven't slept and
Speaker 6: I've blanked out the Arkansas game. But didn't the starters
Speaker 6: go up big on Arkansas? And the moment he made
Speaker 6: that line change is when the tide turned. That was
Speaker 6: one of the worst examples of it this season.
Speaker 4: Without question. Yeah, so you're right. So to answer your question, sir,
Speaker 4: I don't. I don't think Mark Pope is stubborn, but
Speaker 4: I do hope when we get these games, I just
Speaker 4: I cannot that lineup he had last night. And this
Speaker 4: is no offense to any of the kids, because all
Speaker 4: these kids can play well separately. But if you drew
Speaker 4: up the worst lineup we could put on the floor together,
Speaker 4: he had that in at the end, that that that
Speaker 4: lineup of Perry, Braa, Noah, all the Noise and Garrison
Speaker 4: is the worst group of five we can play together
Speaker 4: because none of them can.
Speaker 7: Guard anybody I try. It's a bad defensive team out
Speaker 7: there right now.
Speaker 4: I mean they literally and then they got five guys
Speaker 4: on the bench, Butler Oway, Chandler Carr and Mariy are
Speaker 4: five best defenders, and he had them all on the
Speaker 4: bench at the same time.
Speaker 6: That group, especially Butler owah Mari, should never be sitting
Speaker 6: at the same time.
Speaker 5: The three of them completely agree.

Speaker 4: right back. This is Kentucky Sports Radio.
Speaker 5: Welcome back.
Speaker 4: It is Kentucky Sports Radio twenty two eighty seven. Text
Speaker 4: Machine seven seven two seven seven four five two five four.
Speaker 4: A couple of you been asking me about are the podcast?
Speaker 4: Drew and I do fade this. We're gonna bring it
Speaker 4: back for the NCAA tournament and the maybe even the
Speaker 4: conference tournaments. So we'll we'll do that starting maybe tomorrow.
Speaker 4: We might do one tomorrow if not. We'll definitely do one,
Speaker 4: uh for the NCAA brackets, So that'll be fun. Drew
Speaker 4: and I having done one since the end of college
Speaker 4: football season.
Speaker 6: Remember doing one at the NCAA tournament last year. That
Speaker 6: was a lot of fun. We were watching the team's practice.
Speaker 6: I think maybe NC State was practicing.
Speaker 5: That's right in the band. It was loud music.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I did do fun tofully.
Speaker 5: We'll do that again.
Speaker 7: A lot of people ask about that. So it's the
Speaker 7: long awaited return of the fade this podcast.
Speaker 5: You were saying John cal Perry went nuts last week.
Speaker 6: I think I saw that he almost cost his team.
Speaker 6: They were up eleven twelve ish, pretty much, we're looking good,
Speaker 6: had the game locked up, and then he got teed up.
Speaker 6: Not the ideal time to do it, probably seven minutes left,
Speaker 6: and he made three free throw to kind of cut
Speaker 6: into it. But then I think right away DJ Wagner
Speaker 6: bailed him out with a long three. But even you
Speaker 6: know neighbors in some of the Arkansas accounts I'll see online,
Speaker 6: they weren't happy with the timing of that technical he snapped.
Speaker 6: I think Big Z was even holding.
Speaker 5: Him back a little bit. Yeah, they won last night
Speaker 5: without a due.
Speaker 7: So that's uh, that's like three straight games he's missed.
Speaker 5: Is he coming back?
Speaker 4: Well, I mean, you know how it is with cal injuries.
Speaker 4: You have absolutely no idea because Cal has not seen him,
Speaker 4: so there'd be no way to know.
Speaker 6: He actually said, I haven't spoken to him today was
Speaker 6: his answer.
Speaker 5: He did not.
Speaker 6: That was not last night. That was who they played
Speaker 6: the last game. That was his answer a couple of
Speaker 6: days ago. But man play the Hits. That was a
Speaker 6: big win for.
Speaker 5: Them last night. Barnhart speaking of the Hairs.
Speaker 4: Let's bring two conversations together, Mitch speaking of The Harold
Speaker 4: Leader in Mitch Barnhart and Mark Stoops. Mitch Barnhardt did
Speaker 4: an interview with The Harol Leader in which he said
Speaker 4: he was asked about the problems for UK football and
Speaker 4: he said it was a one year blip. I feel
Speaker 4: like we're gonna hear that that phrase a lot. I
Speaker 4: actually think that's it's a pretty bad phrase to use
Speaker 4: because it's not a one year blip. We've only won
Speaker 4: one SEC home game in the last two years. We've
Speaker 4: lost a Vandy twice in a row, we had a
Speaker 4: losing record the year before.
Speaker 5: It's not a one year blip.
Speaker 4: I think that's downplaying fans concerns, and I think that's
Speaker 4: not a good PR strategy at this point.
Speaker 7: Yeah, we remember two years ago they kind of saved
Speaker 7: that season because they beat Louisville. They hadn't beat Louisville.
Speaker 7: We I think we had been really upset of the
Speaker 7: way the last two years have gone.
Speaker 6: Don't tell the season ticket holders it's a one year blip. Yeah,
Speaker 6: the home games have been a lot more than a
Speaker 6: year blip.
Speaker 5: I think that.
Speaker 4: The worst thing you can do in when you are
Speaker 4: in a role of having customers whatever it is, the
Speaker 4: worst thing you can do is say to the customer that.
Speaker 5: Their feeling is wrong.
Speaker 4: Like you can point out facts, but you can't say
Speaker 4: it's wrong. So let's say somebody comes in here and
Speaker 4: they're not pleased about their food. Let's say they eat
Speaker 4: and they go, you know, I don't feel like.
Speaker 5: The food is. I can't look at you and go,
Speaker 5: yeah the food was good. Yeah it was like you're wrong,
Speaker 5: it was good.
Speaker 4: You don't understand that food was really good, Like they
Speaker 4: don't think it's good. So the question is how do
Speaker 4: you make that better? Do you talk about Well, we'll
Speaker 4: try to do better the next time or whatever. You
Speaker 4: can't just tell them it's not good. I think Mitch
Speaker 4: Barnhardt and Mark Stoops and John Caliperry before that their
Speaker 4: way of dealing with it's not good is to go you're.
Speaker 5: Wrong, and you can't do that. No, like people feel
Speaker 5: the way they feel.
Speaker 4: Now, you can try to convince them and say, well,
Speaker 4: maybe think about it like this, But if you just
Speaker 4: look at somebody and go you're wrong, it's not gonna work.
Speaker 5: Right.
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's the the yw butt I hear from my kids.
Speaker 7: You know you did the yo butt. I cleaned my
Speaker 7: bedroom yesterday. You can't do the yo butt. It's all
Speaker 7: about how you make excuses for things that have gone wrong.
Speaker 4: And if UK is going to raise the ticket prices,
Speaker 4: which they are because they have one last game, but
Speaker 4: the same price, and UK is going to ask people
Speaker 4: to donate to all the various things they ask, they
Speaker 4: have to understand that they cannot downplay the legitimate concerns.
Speaker 4: Cal tried to do that for years. How'd that work
Speaker 4: out for him? Now? Counter that to Mark Pope, who
Speaker 4: when we lose goes this is not acceptable.
Speaker 5: I think that's what I think. That's what they need to.
Speaker 6: Do for the football, Yes, especially with the football fans,
Speaker 6: because they are already very upset with the ticket situation.
Speaker 6: So then to just kind of dismiss their concerns about
Speaker 6: the home record the last two or three years, I
Speaker 6: don't think that's a good move by Mitch. That's just
Speaker 6: gonna have a think anger them even more.
Speaker 4: I would agree with what Nick Rouse just said on
Speaker 4: the KSR website. They should do one of those men
Speaker 4: in black things and put them on the brain and say,
Speaker 4: don't say the word one year. Don't save the phrase
Speaker 4: one year blip again, because I've heard that a lot.
Speaker 5: Get that out of your vocabulary.
Speaker 4: By the way, it was sixty four degrees thirty minutes ago,
Speaker 4: and they say it's gonna be fifteen degrees tonight.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, goodness. Yeah.
Speaker 7: The baseball game, I know what, at first pitch is
Speaker 7: supposed to be forty, but by the end of the
Speaker 7: games will be down to like, yeah, in the twenties.
Speaker 4: This the Kentucky weather continues to be absurd. Who's up next, Barb.
Speaker 4: By the way, for you, if you're going to the
Speaker 4: SEC tournament, it's supposed to be in the seventies all
Speaker 4: week in Nashville next week, so that should be pretty good.
Speaker 5: Barb.
Speaker 10: Go ahead, Hey, first time caller. Who are I wanted
Speaker 10: you were speaking of about Gene Hackman and the dogs?
Speaker 10: I want to tell you a short story, all right, okay,
Speaker 10: well real quick. We had a farm. A World War
Speaker 10: two prisoner war veteran came back.
Speaker 6: Uh.
Speaker 10: He lived in the full cabin on the woods. In
Speaker 10: the woods. He liked to hunt. Some people went back
Speaker 10: there to talk with them about behind naim and they
Speaker 10: smelled the awful smell. They went in.
Speaker 8: He was dead.
Speaker 10: He had three dogs. The dogs had actually eaten him.
Speaker 10: So maybe that's how the dogs got.
Speaker 4: That's that's quite a theory. What do you think about that, Shannon?
Speaker 4: Is a theory for the gene.
Speaker 3: I think they would see bites all over his body
Speaker 3: and know that the dogs bit them.
Speaker 10: So he was he was eating a.
Speaker 3: Hackman, not not this guy.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 10: Wow, we called the MS. My husband had to help
Speaker 10: get him on the H. Barney structure to get him
Speaker 10: out the e M S. The EMS workers were throwing up.
Speaker 4: Okay, wow, you know I've got a crowd here for lunch.
Speaker 4: I don't know if I'm going to repeat that to them.
Speaker 4: Bar because they're they're eating right now. But that's quite
Speaker 4: a store. Okay, well, thank you for listening, Bar, but
Speaker 4: I appreciate it.
Speaker 6: Happy wings Day, Yeah, Happy Wingsday from Bars.
Speaker 7: What a gross, disgusting story from a sweet grandma.
Speaker 5: She's she's just talking about what could have happened.
Speaker 7: That was disgusting.
Speaker 4: But Ryan, you're supposed to be the person that that
Speaker 4: that that the ladies.
Speaker 7: Like youth and nice and kind.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Okay, well these people looking at me right here. Didn't
Speaker 4: you get to hear any of that, Drew, So they
Speaker 4: don't really know what we're reacting to. But uh, that's
Speaker 4: probably yeh, that's probably for their own good.
Speaker 5: All right. Any chance we beat Missouri next week?
Speaker 6: Absolutely think it's gonna be a good game, all right.
Speaker 6: I don't think they'll be favored by more than three
Speaker 6: or four points. I think Kentucky will be in it.
