20
00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 2: a little bit of advice to fans. By the way,

21
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:06,520
Speaker 2: we're here at the KS bar. We got a lot

22
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:08,880
Speaker 2: of stuff going on. I'll talk more about it a

23
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 2: little later in the show, but some advice to fans.

24
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:14,480
Speaker 2: Stop falling for Twitter accounts that are not real people.

25
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,319
Speaker 2: I know Elon has screwed up that platform that it's

26
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:19,679
Speaker 2: hard to see who's real or not. But before you

27
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 2: retweet a tweet that tells people something's happening with Kentucky basketball,

28
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:28,200
Speaker 2: look and see if the person is real, so people

29
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 2: can stop sending me this s Charles NFL Twitter account

30
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:36,160
Speaker 2: that says that Mitch is making an offer to Danny

31
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 2: Hurley can't refuse. Look at his bio it says esteem

32
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 2: Patriots writer and journalism and female anatomy major. Do you

33
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 2: really think that's a real journalist?

34
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 3: I missed that part in the bio.

35
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 2: Just have like it's always the people who tell me, Matt,

36
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,680
Speaker 2: you rely on the mainstream media. And then I look

37
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 2: and they're retweeting account of Frogs, Like seriously, Like that's

38
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 2: not a real account. If it was a real account,

39
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:08,680
Speaker 2: they would not put that. So like, read the accounts

40
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 2: before you send them to see if they're true. There's

41
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 2: a Tennessee account that's like RGW news that fools our

42
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 2: fans all of the time because it's not a real account,

43
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:20,920
Speaker 2: and everybody just falls for it. So just take the

44
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 2: time to make sure the thing is real, Ryan before

45
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:24,640
Speaker 2: you do.

46
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 1: I was that way last night with a lot of

47
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 1: early reports, but then when Bob Holt reported it, Yeah,

48
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 1: that's he is their version of Jerry Tips.

49
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:36,720
Speaker 2: And there's already people who are taking my profile picture

50
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:39,600
Speaker 2: and putting it on their account and just saying stuff.

51
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 2: Ky Sports Radio is my account. The rest of them

52
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 2: are not so like just you know, unfortunately there was

53
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:50,919
Speaker 2: a time that like that was fixable. Elon screwed that up.

54
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:54,120
Speaker 2: But that's the way it is. Yeah, So now let's

55
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 2: just just be extra be extra careful. We got callers

56
00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 2: on the line A five nine two eight zero twenty

57
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 2: two eighty seven. One person writes, Matt, I am getting

58
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:08,680
Speaker 2: really mad about the interview with Mitch and Cal. I

59
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:13,080
Speaker 2: actually don't blame Mitch. I think he got fooled. Do

60
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,960
Speaker 2: you think he got fooled? I don't know a fool's

61
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 2: the word, but he, I mean, Cal pulled another sales

62
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 2: job money. I mean like Cal literally looked at it.

63
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 2: This is why, at the end of the day, you

64
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 2: should never believe any of these people. Cal looked in

65
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,800
Speaker 2: the camera and looked at us and said, I want

66
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 2: to be here, to be the coach here next year.

67
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 1: I took it at his word.

68
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:42,480
Speaker 2: Why he's been here fourteen years, you know. I mean

69
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:47,480
Speaker 2: he was our salesman. But he was a salesman. You

70
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:52,280
Speaker 2: knew that, like you knew that. You know, when I

71
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 2: was listening to his radio interview and when I was

72
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 2: watching his television interview, Drew and I were texting each

73
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:03,360
Speaker 2: other the same thing. It's the same cow stuff, Like

74
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 2: you knew that. How do how do we continue to

75
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:11,000
Speaker 2: let ourselves get play like we knew this? Why did

76
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 2: you think it was gonna be different?

77
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 1: That's why you and I agree, we talked about it.

78
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 1: I think I honestly believe Mitch has every right to

79
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 1: be upset because Mitch Ducky's neck out for cow and

80
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:22,719
Speaker 1: then Col went and rain the other way.

81
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:26,000
Speaker 2: I have to say this about Mitch. Mitch took up

82
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:31,640
Speaker 2: for Col in a way. I mean, I don't know

83
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:34,560
Speaker 2: many people that would do it. Yeah, even let me

84
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 2: be real, even when stuff was good. Cow has always

85
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 2: treated treated Mitch as a second class, like it's not

86
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:49,359
Speaker 2: his boss, and put Mitch in some very hard places

87
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 2: because what's Mitch supposed to do? Cow's winning. If you're winning,

88
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,760
Speaker 2: you can't upset that guy. The fans will turn on you.

89
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 2: So what's he supposed to do? And then finally the

90
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,280
Speaker 2: fans kind of turn on Cal, and Mitch is the

91
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 2: one who gives him a lifeboat, right, sticks his neck out,

92
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 2: jumps on the lifeboat with him in some ways. And

93
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,159
Speaker 2: then Cal jumps off and goes, I'm gonna take on

94
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:14,840
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go on this shift over here.

95
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:17,360
Speaker 3: And he's been flirting with Ohio State since February.

96
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:19,840
Speaker 2: I mean, I mean, that's an amazing That was an

97
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 2: amazing report that he can sit the Ohio State job

98
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 2: in February. While he's telling us.

99
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 1: We're built from March. Very damning.

100
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 2: I think maybe he was building for a March move.

101
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 3: To me, Well, you remember Mitch's press conference after the

102
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:38,119
Speaker 3: basketball football school thing. He went on for like forty

103
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:39,279
Speaker 3: five minutes talking about it.

104
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:42,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you know why he did is I think

105
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 2: Mitch was on Stoop's side. Yeah, he was, you know

106
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 2: why because Stoop's treats him as a passship. Cal didn't.

107
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 2: I do think there'll be some talk about what were

108
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:03,760
Speaker 2: the most important steps in this ending. I'll rank you

109
00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 2: my five, all right. The number one most important thing

110
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 2: that happened was when Dwayne Peevee left, because it made

111
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 2: it to where Cal lost his disconnect from the administration.

112
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:17,560
Speaker 2: Dwayne Pevee was the guy between Mitch and Cal. When

113
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:23,279
Speaker 2: Dwayne Pevey left, it was never the same. Ever. Number

114
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 2: Two John Robick. When John Robick left, the John Robick

115
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 2: was a basketball is a basketball savant and when that

116
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 2: didn't work, and I don't totally blame Cal for why

117
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:40,279
Speaker 2: that didn't work, but it didn't work. He never replaced that.

118
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 2: Number three is Kenny Payne for the reasons we talked about.

119
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:48,279
Speaker 2: Number four was the basketball football school thing. Whoever you

120
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,520
Speaker 2: want to blame for that is up to you. We've

121
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 2: talked about it as nauseam, but the bad blood from

122
00:06:53,160 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 2: that never stopped. Ever, it never got better, and sides

123
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:05,279
Speaker 2: were drawn. Boosters chose sides, fans chose sides. We have

124
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,280
Speaker 2: a segment of our fan base that Cal could never

125
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 2: do well again. We have a segment of our fan

126
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 2: base that hates Stoops. Because of that, that was the

127
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,560
Speaker 2: work that ended up being a bigger deal, Ryd than

128
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,120
Speaker 2: I thought it was gonna, didn't you. I'd like up

129
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 2: to this week it did still been a deal, and

130
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 2: the football staff never forgave Cal yep and I don't

131
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 2: think Cal ever forgave the football staff. I think it

132
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:29,680
Speaker 2: didn't help that he was in the Bahamas, so you

133
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 2: couldn't get everybody together. But that was a massive, massive deal.

134
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 2: And then I think the last thing was the nine

135
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 2: and sixteen season and how Cal looked at media members

136
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 2: of which I was certainly one but I was not

137
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 2: the only one, and thought, why weren't you all loyal

138
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:59,360
Speaker 2: to me during this? And he just went lights off

139
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 2: against everybody, if I were to point to the And

140
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 2: then of course losing Saint Peter's I mean, I mean losing,

141
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:07,840
Speaker 2: but losing Trump's all that. But if you're talking about

142
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 2: off the court stuff, Ryan, those are the things that

143
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 2: I think were most important.

144
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 1: What about you, I think you've nailed it. I think

145
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,600
Speaker 1: you got the good list there. And like Billy said,

146
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:17,440
Speaker 1: you add that to the fact that no success in

147
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:19,920
Speaker 1: March for the last four years, it all just kind

148
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 1: of steamrolled and the crowd, the fans, we want success,

149
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 1: you know, those people who said that we want cal

150
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:29,040
Speaker 1: to fail. That so makes me so upset when I

151
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:31,720
Speaker 1: hear that we want this team to succeed.

152
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 2: Billy, you you have to do a lot through all

153
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 2: this with your job. Why do you think it went wrong?

154
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 3: Well, I think it's about how do you treat the

155
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 3: people around you? And I think you can read between

156
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:53,000
Speaker 3: the lines when I say something like that, But I

157
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:56,760
Speaker 3: think that's a trickle down effect from your ad from

158
00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 3: your coaching staff to the TJ. Bisner's of the world.

159
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:00,320
Speaker 2: Old.

160
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, I feel honestly, And you asked me how is

161
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:06,600
Speaker 3: I gonna be optimistic for next season last week? And

162
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 3: my answer was a complete change in philosophy, the way

163
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:12,280
Speaker 3: that he talks to people, the way that he treats people,

164
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:15,080
Speaker 3: and the way that he recruits in a game that's

165
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 3: evolved to older players. And I don't think we were

166
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,439
Speaker 3: gonna get that. So that's why ultimately I come out

167
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 3: of this optimistic that five six years down the road, Kentucky,

168
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:25,959
Speaker 3: this would be better thing for Kentucky than if he

169
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 3: were the coach in the next year.

170
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, And if I don't communicate any other message. Tell

171
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 2: the people that are the age of these dudes right

172
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:37,040
Speaker 2: here who clearly agree with me, or they wouldn't be here,

173
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:39,960
Speaker 2: I don't think, or at least, but tell them like,

174
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 2: we're gonna survive this, this idea that people of a

175
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:50,440
Speaker 2: certain age have that like, oh no, Like, we've had

176
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:54,120
Speaker 2: a bunch of coaches and we've won with nearly every

177
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:58,600
Speaker 2: single one of them. We're gonna be fine. And you

178
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:00,760
Speaker 2: know what, if they hire this coach it doesn't work,

179
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:03,560
Speaker 2: you know what'll happen. He'll be gone and we'll get enough.

180
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 2: You know, listen Tuppy Smith when he left, you know

181
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,439
Speaker 2: what didn't happen. It didn't work immediately, No it didn't.

182
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:12,960
Speaker 2: But you know what happened over for two years you

183
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 2: got cat Yep, we'll be fine. Who's next, Chester Chester?

184
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 2: Go ahead, Chester Man.

185
00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 4: I was sitting there watching the Wrestlemaniam last night and

186
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 4: all this stuff started going down, and the one thing

187
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:29,079
Speaker 4: I could just think about was that wrestling belt sitting

188
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:31,800
Speaker 4: there behind him in that interview, and I felt like

189
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,400
Speaker 4: that all this today is like a twilight zone I'm

190
00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 4: living in, because it reminded me of the feeling when

191
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 4: Hogan went INWO, and I remember feeling that way that

192
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:42,920
Speaker 4: I did not like it. It just didn't feel right.

193
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:45,439
Speaker 4: And I think what's gonna happen is it's gonna be

194
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 4: similar because Cali Perry to Arkansas. He's gonna look back

195
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 4: on this and regret it. When when Hogan shows up,

196
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:54,680
Speaker 4: he ain't. He ain't wearing nWo. He's wearing whole Comania.

197
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:57,000
Speaker 4: And I mean, it's a silly comparison, I know, but

198
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:58,920
Speaker 4: I just thought about it and I wanted to share

199
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,319
Speaker 4: that with you, and I think that come come later on,

200
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:04,880
Speaker 4: later on, Kal is going to regret it. He's going

201
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 4: to regret it.

202
00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 2: I bet he does. I bet he does too. No,

203
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:10,520
Speaker 2: I agree with you on that.

204
00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:11,439
Speaker 4: I'm conflicted.

205
00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:12,679
Speaker 5: I'm conflicted about it.

206
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:13,920
Speaker 4: I'm just conflicted about it.

207
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,520
Speaker 2: And I agree with you. He will look back one day.

208
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,400
Speaker 2: I think cal and wish he'd done some stuff differently

209
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:21,920
Speaker 2: and wish he had finished here. I do believe that.

210
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:26,640
Speaker 2: I do. By the way, I can't believe this. Someone

211
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 2: just sent me this. On Saturday, the John Calipari Podcast

212
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:37,959
Speaker 2: released a new episode called What's Next On Saturday. On Saturday,

213
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:43,480
Speaker 2: John Caliperi talks about what's next for him and his team,

214
00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:47,080
Speaker 2: and how he's approaching recruitment and the roster construction in

215
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:52,839
Speaker 2: the New World. It's fourteen minutes long. It's not a

216
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:56,640
Speaker 2: very long podcast, but now you gotta listen to that, right,

217
00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 2: so that would excuse me. It came out on Friday,

218
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:02,840
Speaker 2: which means he reported it on Thursday, the day before

219
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:04,239
Speaker 2: he left for Arkansas.

220
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:07,640
Speaker 1: Wow, look how much everything has changed.

221
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:11,000
Speaker 3: As he recorded that, his last words is Kentucky's head coach. Yeah,

222
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:12,440
Speaker 3: in a fourteen minute podcast.

223
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:16,080
Speaker 2: We gotta see what that is. I mean, I gotta listen.

224
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:18,079
Speaker 2: I know what I'm listening to this afternoon.

225
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 1: But I think we all agree it was gonna be

226
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:21,800
Speaker 1: Next year is gonna be a lot of the same.

227
00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,360
Speaker 2: But that at that moment, he had to know that

228
00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:27,160
Speaker 2: he was considering it. Do you think so when he

229
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:30,160
Speaker 2: said though, like he had to at least have thought

230
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:32,920
Speaker 2: about it if he ended up landing in Fayetteville, Arkansas,

231
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,200
Speaker 2: on Friday, you don't think you think he just decided

232
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 2: that morning to come.

233
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:38,480
Speaker 3: I don't know when the Tyson Chicken people called him,

234
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 3: but obviously he was thinking about it since February. Wow,

235
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:43,800
Speaker 3: before the season was over.

236
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:48,240
Speaker 2: That's By the way, who's next, Doug, Doug, Go ahead, Doug.

237
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:52,360
Speaker 6: Yeah, man, I've gotta tell you how I feel about

238
00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:55,199
Speaker 6: what's going on, and then I have a question for you,

239
00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:58,599
Speaker 6: all right, quickly, Okay. As far as Cayle's leaving, I

240
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 6: got mixed emotions. I'm sad, but kind of sad because

241
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:05,319
Speaker 6: I remember how things used to be and the excitement

242
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:09,040
Speaker 6: over the season, the excitement over recruiting, the excitement over

243
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:13,000
Speaker 6: the postseason, and on the flip side, I'm tired of

244
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 6: being resigned to how things are now. You still look

245
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 6: forward to the recruiting, but you in the postseason, but

246
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:24,640
Speaker 6: you resigned to the fact there's a good chance you're

247
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:25,600
Speaker 6: going to get knocked.

248
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:28,840
Speaker 2: Out over you were. Yes, unfortunately, what's your question?

249
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:34,280
Speaker 6: Okay? Since out Cal opted out of his contract, does

250
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 6: he have a buyout?

251
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:39,960
Speaker 2: No? So the way this was the way Cal's contract was,

252
00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 2: and it was probably one of the best coach friendly

253
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:47,040
Speaker 2: contracts ever. If Cal were to have been fired, we

254
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:50,079
Speaker 2: owed him thirty three million dollars. If cow were to

255
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:53,319
Speaker 2: leave on his own, no one owes us anything, So

256
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 2: Arkansas will not have to pay us anything. We don't

257
00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:00,920
Speaker 2: have to pay him the life time part of the

258
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:06,200
Speaker 2: deal is gone, meaning there is no more uh ambassadorship

259
00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:09,520
Speaker 2: or all that stuff. But there was no buy out,

260
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 2: so Arkansas owes us no money. He has to be

261
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:16,960
Speaker 2: the only con coach that I know that has a

262
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:17,800
Speaker 2: contract like that.

263
00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:20,520
Speaker 3: I mean the lifetime deal.

264
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 2: I mean, for instance, Nat Oates buy out his ten

265
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:27,160
Speaker 2: million dollars, cal had a buyout of zero dollars.

266
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:31,880
Speaker 1: That's interesting that. Yeah, that ambassadorship that he was in

267
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,000
Speaker 1: the his deal is now off the table.

268
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 2: Also then yeah, no, that's gone. What's next, Alex, Alex,

269
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:40,080
Speaker 2: go ahead, Alex.

270
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:45,640

Speaker 7: This is Kentucky, this is the gold standard.

281
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:13,960
Speaker 6: And every year it was.

282
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:15,920
Speaker 7: Hyped up, We're gonna do this, do that. But then

00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:36,600
Speaker 2: is Kentucky Sports Radio working back. It is Entucky Sports Radio.

313
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:39,480
Speaker 2: Some breaking news. You got the button, John, do you

314
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 2: know how to hit the breaking? All right? Aaron Bradshaw

315
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:48,080
Speaker 2: has entered the transfer port I mean, this is just

316
00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:51,600
Speaker 2: this is gonna be everybody. Yep. Here's what's interesting to me.

317
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:57,920
Speaker 2: Let's see if he goes to Arkansas. Because if he doesn't, well,

318
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,880
Speaker 2: I think that's its. Let's see if he goes to Arkansas.

319
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:04,119
Speaker 2: If he does, you know, I don't know if he

320
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:06,840
Speaker 2: will or not, but I think that'll be interesting to see.

321
00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:08,560
Speaker 2: I think he was gonna be in the transfer portal

322
00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:12,000
Speaker 2: regardless of whether cal Perry came back or not. I

323
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:14,200
Speaker 2: think he was likely gone, which means Ryan I would

324
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,080
Speaker 2: think he doesn't go to Arkansas, but we'll see.

325
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:19,280
Speaker 1: I think that's probably the other you read the tea leaves.

326
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:21,880
Speaker 1: I think he definitely was probably gonna be leaving the program.

327
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,000
Speaker 1: Like you know, Billy kind of joked, but he said

328
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,080
Speaker 1: at least he's not going to the n NBA draft.

329
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:28,800
Speaker 1: I think there are a lot of people who thought

330
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:30,520
Speaker 1: he was still gonna maybe go to the end, try

331
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:32,120
Speaker 1: to put his name in the draft, at least test

332
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:33,480
Speaker 1: the test the process.

333
00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:36,320
Speaker 2: One person writes, Matt, do you think Travis Perry comes

334
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:39,000
Speaker 2: back or comes to school here still? Yeah? I do, Yeah,

335
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,280
Speaker 2: I do too, I do too. I think he'll be here.

336
00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:47,400
Speaker 2: That might be our only freshman. I mean, I mean,

337
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:50,480
Speaker 2: you know we're gonna be a We're gonna be an

338
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:52,440
Speaker 2: old team next year because we don't have a choice.

339
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:55,320
Speaker 2: I mean, we're gonna be We're gonna be really, we'll

340
00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 2: be one of those teams when the tournament comes in

341
00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,600
Speaker 2: they go everybody in this turn of team is twenty two,

342
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:01,800
Speaker 2: twenty three years old. I think that's what we're about

343
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:02,000
Speaker 2: to be.

344
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:04,600
Speaker 3: Well good. I mean, we've been hearing that we're built

345
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:06,760
Speaker 3: for March, and then it's blamed on freshmen in their

346
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:08,200
Speaker 3: inexperience when they don't produce.

347
00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:09,840
Speaker 2: Well, you're not gonna have to worry about that this year.

348
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 2: This is gonna be an old By the way, just

349
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:14,680
Speaker 2: so you know, National Championships night, you know there's a

350
00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:18,000
Speaker 2: lot going on. We can't talk about. Women's National Championship

351
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:21,120
Speaker 2: was last yesterday. It was awesome. WrestleMania was last night.

352
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:24,240
Speaker 2: The Eclipse is going on, the Men's National Championship is

353
00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 2: going on, and we can't talk about any of it

354
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:28,199
Speaker 2: because we got all this other stuff. But I'll tell

355
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:32,680
Speaker 2: you something about the National Championship tonight. Connecticut and Purdue

356
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:35,040
Speaker 2: are two great teams. Connecticut has a chance to go

357
00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:36,840
Speaker 2: down as one of the all time teams, but produce

358
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:44,200
Speaker 2: great too. Guess how many five star recruits are starting tonight? Zero? Zero,

359
00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:49,480
Speaker 2: not one. So just remember that as we're building these rosters,

360
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,000
Speaker 2: it's gonna be different than what we're used to. It's

361
00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:55,359
Speaker 2: gonna it's not gonna be like elite talents lining up

362
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:59,119
Speaker 2: and committing one after the other. But go look at

363
00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:01,520
Speaker 2: how many elite n C state you know, how many

364
00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:05,879
Speaker 2: five stars they had? Zero Alabama? How many five stars

365
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,480
Speaker 2: they have? Zero? Wow?

366
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:10,200
Speaker 1: None in the final four.

367
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:15,320
Speaker 2: None in the final four. So you know it's gonna

368
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:18,040
Speaker 2: be different, but it might actually be what you have

369
00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:23,199
Speaker 2: to do nowadays to uh, to have success. Who's next, Vinnie, Vinnie,

370
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:24,000
Speaker 2: what's up? Vinnie?

371
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:26,600
Speaker 1: Hey, Matt, first time, long time?

372
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:30,440
Speaker 4: Wow, just touched more on on Hurley.

373
00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 8: You know I was looking.

374
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:34,840
Speaker 4: I know it's everybody's been saying it's a long shot,

375
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 4: but I'm looking at his contract.

376
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:38,160
Speaker 8: He's only making four and a half million a year.

377
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:42,160
Speaker 4: Got well, in my mind, make it work as wild.

378
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 2: No, No, I mean if you you at least have

379
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:47,199
Speaker 2: to make Yukon, You at least have to make Yukon

380
00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:50,159
Speaker 2: paying what he's worth. Because he's making four and a

381
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:53,320
Speaker 2: half million a year. We can pay ten million dollars

382
00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:55,960
Speaker 2: a year, So you at least got to go make

383
00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:57,840
Speaker 2: Yukon pay that, don't you.

384
00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:00,000

391
00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:23,400
Speaker 2: hard to walk away from back to back titles.

392
00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:26,400
Speaker 1: You can't can you be hard?

393
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:31,760

437
00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:36,760
Speaker 2: Welcome back. Take you sports Radio. Got a couple of

438
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,439
Speaker 2: students here from UK. How what are the students? Are

439
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:44,920
Speaker 2: they bummed out? You're not well? Some of them may be.

440
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:48,400
Speaker 2: What do you think, bittersweet? I understand what I mean

441
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:50,480
Speaker 2: For you guys, you grew up like that was a coach,

442
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,760
Speaker 2: you know, so I can understand that. Hey, a thing

443
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:56,960
Speaker 2: to remember about next year's team. Let's just say you

444
00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 2: got Scott Drew or Nat Oates. I'm gonna read you

445
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 2: the recruiting rankings for next year. Duke is one, Kentucky

446
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:11,680
Speaker 2: is two. Guess who's number three Baylor. Guess who's number four? Alabama? Okay,

447
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,439
Speaker 2: so like, let's not act like you're dropping off the

448
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:17,000
Speaker 2: face of the planet if you get one of those two.

449
00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:20,520
Speaker 2: I mean, they're literally the number three and four recruits

450
00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:22,680
Speaker 2: in the country. So if you still want dudes who

451
00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:26,120
Speaker 2: can play, those dudes can still play.

452
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:28,320
Speaker 1: Just like we saw with Kenny Brooks, the women's coach,

453
00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:31,520
Speaker 1: the girls he had recruited to Virginia Tech learning them

454
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:32,920
Speaker 1: over here to Kentucky.

455
00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:38,199
Speaker 2: Let me also note this on three Guesses Nil, I

456
00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:40,040
Speaker 2: just want to sort of give you a sense of

457
00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:44,400
Speaker 2: where Nil was with UK basketball. The average nil per

458
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:47,439
Speaker 2: player according to on three. Now, this is this is

459
00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:52,200
Speaker 2: the them saying that Duke three hundred and fifty six thousand,

460
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:58,040
Speaker 2: Baylor two twenty three, North Carolina two eighty six, Kansas

461
00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:04,680
Speaker 2: won seventy seven. Uh, let's see Texas two twenty one

462
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:10,359
Speaker 2: Rutgers six point thirty. That's crazy. Uh, Miami two sixty three,

463
00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:12,919
Speaker 2: Kentucky won fifty seven.

464
00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:15,119
Speaker 1: Oh, this is basketball.

465
00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:16,000
Speaker 2: That's basketball.

466
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,080
Speaker 3: It was a lot lower than I thought it would

467
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:18,440
Speaker 3: me too.

468
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:26,920
Speaker 2: It's because folks again been telling you this, they've been

469
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:31,520
Speaker 2: having problems with this stuff. Might as well just say

470
00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:34,879
Speaker 2: it now when it comes to nil. For the last

471
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:40,640
Speaker 2: two years, they promised money that guys didn't get. That's

472
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:43,560
Speaker 2: just a fact, isn't it.

473
00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:46,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, And now though, like you said, that those people

474
00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 1: that have that money will be more willing to step

475
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:50,600
Speaker 1: up to the plate with the new coach.

476
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:54,520
Speaker 2: There were there were guys. There were there were guys

477
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:56,840
Speaker 2: who came here and thought one thing was gonna happen,

478
00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 2: and they didn't. And I don't think it's possible that

479
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:05,320
Speaker 2: that can't affect and someone. Sure, it was a huge

480
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 2: thing two years ago. Huge. You want to know why

481
00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:12,760
Speaker 2: that team didn't succeed. There's a lot of reasons, but

482
00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:13,680
Speaker 2: that was part of it.

483
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:15,359
Speaker 3: Was it a sense of they could do it without

484
00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:17,600
Speaker 3: nil money or was it just a lack.

485
00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:20,960
Speaker 2: Of It's a sense of when when people think they're

486
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:24,359
Speaker 2: going I think UK was recruiting. This is just my

487
00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:27,280
Speaker 2: take I think they were recruiting saying, hey, guys, you

488
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:32,320
Speaker 2: come here, it's Kentucky. If you're getting that there, imagine

489
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:35,239
Speaker 2: what you're gonna get here. Yeah, and then it just

490
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:38,760
Speaker 2: doesn't happen, you know, And then and then it just

491
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:42,440
Speaker 2: doesn't happen. And it doesn't matter so much for Rob Dillingham,

492
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 2: Re Shepherd I think did well with in Ile. But

493
00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:47,760
Speaker 2: it doesn't really matter for DJ Wagner those guys, because

494
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,600
Speaker 2: they're not coming here for NIL. They're coming here to

495
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:53,600
Speaker 2: get to the draft. But if you're a kid that's

496
00:25:53,640 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 2: coming here for NIL and it doesn't happen, it's an issue.

497
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:05,879
Speaker 2: Who's up next? Chris, Chris? Go ahead, Chris, I.

498
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:09,600
Speaker 5: Just wanted to say that I'm kind of right with

499
00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 5: you whenever you said that the first like nine years

500
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:20,399
Speaker 5: probably overshadowed what's happened the last four. But you know,

501
00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:23,720
Speaker 5: we're supposed to be to go to standard basketball and

502
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:26,679
Speaker 5: we just haven't been. And now it's kind of hoped,

503
00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:30,399
Speaker 5: you know, since they didn't get the opportunity for the

504
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:33,320
Speaker 5: COVID tournament. He hasn't been the same.

505
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:37,440
Speaker 2: I'm not listen. I got to just say this about

506
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:41,280
Speaker 2: the COVID excuse, First of all, with that tournament, yes

507
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:43,600
Speaker 2: we could have won it, we also were going to

508
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:46,320
Speaker 2: be a three seed, so let's not put us cutting

509
00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:48,840
Speaker 2: down the nets yet. Okay, we had a shot to

510
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:53,320
Speaker 2: be good. But but but secondly, I'll be honest with you,

511
00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:57,120
Speaker 2: I'm tired of people using COVID as an excuse. COVID

512
00:26:57,320 --> 00:27:00,959
Speaker 2: was not only in the Bluegrass State. There are forty

513
00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:05,520
Speaker 2: nine other states. Everyone dealt with the same thing, and

514
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:08,600
Speaker 2: in the three years since, everyone's dealt with the same thing.

515
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:12,200
Speaker 2: So this thing about like, well everything changed during COVID.

516
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:18,000
Speaker 2: You have to adapt, right, you have to adapt. So, yeah,

517
00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:21,600
Speaker 2: nine and sixteen was terrible, and COVID was part of it.

518
00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:25,480
Speaker 2: But we weren't the only people dealing with COVID. The

519
00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:31,679
Speaker 2: entire country dealt with it and they did better than us. Like,

520
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:33,920
Speaker 2: that's not an excuse.

521
00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:37,439
Speaker 10: You know, I'm not giving him an excuse. I'm just

522
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:41,280
Speaker 10: saying the year prior, with Maxi and that team, I

523
00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:44,480
Speaker 10: felt like that team was the best chance since you

524
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:48,720
Speaker 10: know probably a hero and you know cat, but those

525
00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:50,879
Speaker 10: were probably the last three teams that even had a shot.

526
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:54,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you're right, and listen, I think that

527
00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:57,680
Speaker 2: twenty twenty team was playing well. But let's remember something.

528
00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:01,520
Speaker 2: I appreciate the call. Everybody goes twenty twenty team, including

529
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:06,119
Speaker 2: cown says we could have won a title. In theory, Ryan, sure,

530
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:11,840
Speaker 2: but let's also remember the year. The day before the

531
00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:16,159
Speaker 2: final game, Ashton Hagen's got suspended from the team. He

532
00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:18,439
Speaker 2: didn't play in the last game. Did you play in

533
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:22,760
Speaker 2: the last game? And we were a three seed projected?

534
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:27,920
Speaker 2: So the idea that it's certain that we were gonna

535
00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:30,280
Speaker 2: go and win the tournament, I think is a little

536
00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:32,000
Speaker 2: bit of Ryan revisionist history.

537
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:33,520
Speaker 1: I always say that too. You that that team was

538
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:35,840
Speaker 1: playing as good as any team in the country, but

539
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:38,680
Speaker 1: there was a little turmoil right there before March maddness

540
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 1: started going into this. He's eternally anything.

541
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:43,880
Speaker 2: That Ashton Hagen's was suspended for his final game at UK.

542
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:46,880
Speaker 2: Would he have played in the postseason, I don't know,

543
00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:48,840
Speaker 2: but we don't know for sure he would have.

544
00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:51,880
Speaker 3: And since COVID, you've had a National Player of the

545
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:54,600
Speaker 3: Year that returned for a season, and you also had

546
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:57,080
Speaker 3: the number one three point shooting team in the country.

547
00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:03,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, exactly right. I mean you've had the talent.

548
00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:07,480
Speaker 2: Let's just look at these four years. In the abstract

549
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:12,240
Speaker 2: Isaiah Jackson first round pick. We forget him, but he

550
00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:14,880
Speaker 2: was the sixteenth pick in the draft and he plays

551
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:18,239
Speaker 2: in Indiana. Yep, everybody forgets him. But he was on

552
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:23,200
Speaker 2: that team. BJ Boston is playing for the Clippers. So

553
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:26,800
Speaker 2: we had two dudes in the NBA on that team.

554
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:29,840
Speaker 2: Rest in peace, Terrence Clark, but he probably would have

555
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:32,880
Speaker 2: played in the NBA two. So that's at least three

556
00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:38,840
Speaker 2: Olivia Sar Olivia Sar four. Yeah, we went nine and

557
00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:44,160
Speaker 2: sixteen with four NBA players. Okay, then the next year,

558
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:47,160
Speaker 2: ty Ty Washington. I don't know what's gonna happen with

559
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:49,760
Speaker 2: him in the NBA, but dude scores like forty a

560
00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:52,120
Speaker 2: game in the in the G League and he was

561
00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:55,400
Speaker 2: pretty good. Kellen Grady. When I do trivia, do you

562
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:58,120
Speaker 2: all realize Kellen Grady had like the fifth most threes

563
00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:01,400
Speaker 2: in a season ever at Kentucky. Well, I'll forget that.

564
00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:07,800
Speaker 2: Oscar Sheebweys on that team right then, and he's National

565
00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 2: Player of the Year. We lost to Saint Peter's with

566
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:15,920
Speaker 2: the National Player of the Year, one of the three

567
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:19,800
Speaker 2: best three point shooters we've had at Kentucky and a

568
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:23,480
Speaker 2: dude who was picked in the NBA draft. Next year,

569
00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:28,160
Speaker 2: we have a end of lottery pick in Cason Wallace

570
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:30,840
Speaker 2: who's playing real minutes for a team that can win

571
00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:35,680
Speaker 2: the title with the Thunder, we return the National Player

572
00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:39,720
Speaker 2: of the Year and we lose in the second round.

573
00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:43,840
Speaker 2: And then this year, we have the top two freshmen

574
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:48,880
Speaker 2: in the country and they're coming off the bench, and

575
00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:52,040
Speaker 2: we have an All American and we have three of

576
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 2: our six best three shooting percentage players in the history

577
00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:00,800
Speaker 2: of Kentucky basketball. Think of all all the dudes who

578
00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:03,960
Speaker 2: could shoot. We had three of the six best on

579
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:09,360
Speaker 2: the team this year and we lost to Jack Gulk.

580
00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:10,600
Speaker 1: It hurt all over again.

581
00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:16,920
Speaker 2: So before we act like we're losing something that's irreplaceable,

582
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 2: just think about that for a minute. Just in these

583
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:27,400
Speaker 2: four years alone, Let's count the NBA players, Okay, Isaiah Jackson,

584
00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:31,960
Speaker 2: BJ Boston. I think Terrence Clark would have played in

585
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:37,320
Speaker 2: the league. Rest in peace, Olivier saw Oscar Sheebwey has

586
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:41,040
Speaker 2: played and will play in the league. Five Tye tie

587
00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 2: probably six, Cason Wallace, seven, Reed Shepherd eight, Rob Dillingham nine,

588
00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:52,760
Speaker 2: Antonio Reeves ten maybe.

589
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:53,760
Speaker 1: More, yeah, maybe more.

590
00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:56,920
Speaker 2: Ten dudes in four years.

591
00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:01,560
Speaker 3: One NCAA tournament win coaching mailpractice.

592
00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:04,720
Speaker 1: It is coaching mailpractice. How can you not have more

593
00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:06,640
Speaker 1: wins with that kind of talent?

594
00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:09,680
Speaker 3: A damn accountant had what ten threes against you, and

595
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:11,520
Speaker 3: then you couldn't play against his own.

596
00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:17,600
Speaker 2: Ten NBA players in four years. One NCAA tournament win.

597
00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:23,960
Speaker 1: That hurts one SEC tournament win all that's even worse.

598
00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:29,160
Speaker 2: So I'm not trying to crush the guy. I could

599
00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:32,360
Speaker 2: do the same thing from twenty ten to twenty nineteen,

600
00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:37,200
Speaker 2: and the stats are unbelievably good, but these last four

601
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:38,000
Speaker 2: years have not been.

602
00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:40,600

Speaker 2: oh twenty two eighty seven.

619
00:33:28,920 --> 00:33:31,960
Speaker 1: I thought another one actually for you to change subjects. Yeah,

620
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:34,760
Speaker 1: I think Keon Brooks has put himself in position where

621
00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:37,680
Speaker 1: he's gonna get drafted. He had like his monster year.

622
00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:40,040
Speaker 2: I'd be surprised if he gets ripped. But maybe, yeah,

623
00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:42,760
Speaker 2: it's possible. I'd be surprised. I mean, DJ Wagner may

624
00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:46,320
Speaker 2: end up in the league at some point. Ugo maybe,

625
00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:53,120
Speaker 2: who knows, Shandon Sharp, Chris Livingston, there's another one in

626
00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:57,560
Speaker 2: the NBA. Good grief, this keeps getting worse, without even

627
00:33:57,720 --> 00:34:03,000
Speaker 2: counting Shade and Sharp. That's twelve dudes in four years.

628
00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:12,960
Speaker 2: One tournament win. To me, That's that's it, right, that's it.

629
00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:15,920
Speaker 2: Twelve twelve NBA.

630
00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:18,120
Speaker 3: Guys, it's unacceptable.

631
00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:21,359
Speaker 1: You lose to Saint Peter's in Oakland and.

632
00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:30,480
Speaker 2: See Wow, all right, who's up next? Greg? Greg? Go ahead, Greg.

633
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:35,000
Speaker 11: Hey, Matt, long time, first time. I've been listening to

634
00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:37,920
Speaker 11: you since well since the pregame was down in.

635
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:41,920
Speaker 2: The basement of Rup. Oh, thank you, ma'am won the

636
00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:42,640
Speaker 2: same age as you.

637
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:46,680
Speaker 11: I've both my grandmothers were fans. I've got my my

638
00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:50,399
Speaker 11: little brother's namesake is after Kyle Macy. I've got one

639
00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:53,040
Speaker 11: of my children's named Cal. I was also a Cal

640
00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:58,319
Speaker 11: Ripkin fan. But anyway, there's a chance that we're not

641
00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:04,359
Speaker 11: giving uh Barnhart enough credit. I think in that that.

642
00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:06,360
Speaker 1: Interview could have been all for show.

643
00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:09,719
Speaker 11: In other words, this I think Barnhart realized kind of

644
00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:12,560
Speaker 11: what y'all have been talking about, that the thing that

645
00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:16,600
Speaker 11: made Cal really successful as a recruiter doesn't make him

646
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:19,360
Speaker 11: so much of a great organized leader.

647
00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:21,839
Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't believe. Let me just say this about Mitch.

648
00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:24,640
Speaker 2: I do not believe Mitch Barnhart would have gotten on

649
00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:27,840
Speaker 2: television and intentionally lied to the fans. I do not

650
00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:29,920
Speaker 2: believe that that's not the kind of person he is.

651
00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:33,720
Speaker 2: Mitch Barnhart would not have gotten on television and said

652
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:36,160
Speaker 2: John cal Perry's going to be the coach next year

653
00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:39,680
Speaker 2: unless he believed it. I just I do not think

654
00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:40,440
Speaker 2: he would do that.

655
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:43,160
Speaker 11: But in the back of his mind he knew cal

656
00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:44,120
Speaker 11: could have been looking.

657
00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:46,600
Speaker 2: I mean, I mean that I don't know what he

658
00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:49,640
Speaker 2: knew and what he didn't, but there is You will

659
00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:53,520
Speaker 2: not convince me that Mitch Barnhart got up and said

660
00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:56,120
Speaker 2: something that he didn't believe to be true. It's just

661
00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:57,440
Speaker 2: not something he would do.

662
00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:00,479
Speaker 11: Can I convince you of this that he went into

663
00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:04,400
Speaker 11: that meeting with Calipari that there is these this is

664
00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:07,759
Speaker 11: the list of ultimatums and can you agree with this?

665
00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:10,760
Speaker 11: That Calipari would have had a real hard time agreeing

666
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:11,279
Speaker 11: to all those.

667
00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:15,120
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know all the details. I appreciate

668
00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:18,799
Speaker 2: the call, so I can't say, but and listen, I

669
00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:21,080
Speaker 2: don't know. I don't know what Mitch is thinking today.

670
00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:25,480
Speaker 2: He might secretly think this worked out well in the end,

671
00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:28,200
Speaker 2: but I just I just don't believe he would have.

672
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:30,840
Speaker 2: I just don't believe that. Do you know.

673
00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:32,799
Speaker 1: Mitch is not that kind of guy.

674
00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:37,040
Speaker 2: He's just not. He is. Mitch is like honest to

675
00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:39,600
Speaker 2: a fault. Yeah you know what I mean, Like he

676
00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:40,080
Speaker 2: just is.

677
00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:42,080
Speaker 1: So I say what you want to about him, he

678
00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:45,879
Speaker 1: is a straightforward, honest, respectful man.

679
00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:48,120
Speaker 2: Let me say about to all of you here, and

680

Speaker 1: And it's really cool to watch the Masters in here.

693
00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:30,440
Speaker 1: There's something about seeing that on all the screens and

694
00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:32,160
Speaker 1: you're all kind of hanging on every shot. So yeah,

695
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:33,560
Speaker 1: it's kind of kind of fun. Come on down and

696
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:33,960
Speaker 1: check it out.

697
00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:38,960
Speaker 2: What's next, Derek, Derek, Go ahead, Derek, Hey, Matt.

698
00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:41,120
Speaker 8: Just got a couple of things I'd like saying.

699
00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:41,800
Speaker 2: The two questions.

700
00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:43,880
Speaker 8: I'll hang up and listen to all your thoughts. So

701
00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:47,040
Speaker 8: I think this worked out exactly how Cal wanted it.

702
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:50,040
Speaker 8: Because he's ego driven. We know that. I don't think

703
00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:53,000
Speaker 8: he wanted fired, let go whatever on his.

704
00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:54,879
Speaker 2: Resume, right, I agree? I agree with that.

705
00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:58,640
Speaker 8: Yes he was looking and in hindsight now this has

706
00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:01,520
Speaker 8: worked out best case for mich Hard we were saving

707
00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:04,480
Speaker 8: thirty three million dollars. My two questions are this, I

708
00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:06,640
Speaker 8: think we all have the same top four, right, we

709
00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:10,640
Speaker 8: want Hurley Oates, we would do Jay Ryd and Billy Donovan.

710
00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:14,040
Speaker 8: How realistic in a percentage? Do you think that's possible?

711
00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:17,480
Speaker 8: And then how awkward is this TBT team now going

712
00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:19,160
Speaker 8: to be in the summer.

713
00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:21,839
Speaker 2: I didn't even think about that. You know, it's going

714
00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:24,200
Speaker 2: to be interesting with the former players, and I appreciate

715
00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:30,319
Speaker 2: the call. There will be former players whose relationships with

716
00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:34,399
Speaker 2: Kentucky maybe won't be as strong. I think that's fair.

717
00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:37,280
Speaker 2: But at the end of the day, they went here, right,

718
00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:41,680
Speaker 2: they'll be back here. Will they also help col out

719
00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:46,360
Speaker 2: at Arkansas? Probably, if we're being honest. Probably, But you

720
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:49,240
Speaker 2: remember how everybody said that when Kenny Payne went to Louisville,

721
00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:52,120
Speaker 2: we'd lose all our guys to Louisville. That didn't really happen.

722
00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:54,799
Speaker 2: You know, you go to the college, you go to.

723
00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:58,400
Speaker 2: So I still think these Kentucky players over the years

724
00:38:58,440 --> 00:38:59,680
Speaker 2: will still come back well.

725
00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:02,879
Speaker 3: Enjoyed Boogie in Rondo's conversation a couple of weeks ago.

726
00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:05,720
Speaker 3: I mean, Rondo was as big of a Kentucky supporter

727
00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:07,759
Speaker 3: as anybody, and maybe that will be all of these

728
00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:09,680
Speaker 3: cow players five ten years down the line.

729
00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:10,600
Speaker 2: I think that's right.

730
00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:12,319
Speaker 1: I asked you, you're in the break. That's a guy

731
00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:14,320
Speaker 1: I mentioned, said you think Boogie and Wall still have

732
00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:15,799
Speaker 1: that connect with UK or do they start?

733
00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:19,240
Speaker 2: He still loves his place, they still love him cal

734
00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:26,240
Speaker 2: You know, do I think some of those guys visit Faetteville, Arkansas? Yeah? Sure,

735
00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:28,960
Speaker 2: But do I think that means they don't come here? No?

736
00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:30,480
Speaker 2: Do you? Yeah?

737
00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:32,680
Speaker 1: There were UK players that went to Louisville to visit

738
00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:35,160
Speaker 1: Patino when he was the coach there. So they'll go

739
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:38,279
Speaker 1: to Arkansas and visit their coach, but they're still Kentucky.

740
00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:40,280
Speaker 2: I think. So that's what I would think. Who's next,

741
00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:44,120
Speaker 2: Edward go Ahead, Edward hey Man.

742
00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:47,040
Speaker 12: So I know some of the fan base is really

743
00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:50,360
Speaker 12: disappointed and bummed out today about cal Eman. But you know,

744
00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:52,000
Speaker 12: for me, I kind of compare it to how I

745
00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:55,000
Speaker 12: felt in ninety seven when Patino left. I mean, I

746
00:39:55,080 --> 00:39:58,439
Speaker 12: was devastated when Patino left, and that's a different feeling. Today,

747
00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:01,240
Speaker 12: I'm not this is different. Yes, stated I don't feel

748
00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:04,200
Speaker 12: a little excited, but in ninety seven it was just

749
00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:06,879
Speaker 12: a different feeling. So I think we're in the right

750
00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:08,760
Speaker 12: direction and I'm excited about the future.

751
00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:11,759
Speaker 2: I agree, it's different. I mean, I appreciate the call.

752
00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:14,040
Speaker 2: Even the people that are the most bummed about it.

753
00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:16,440
Speaker 2: What if this had happened six years.

754
00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:19,239
Speaker 1: Ago, we'd all we would all be doing we'd be.

755
00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:23,520
Speaker 2: Apocalyptic, you know, And it's not like that.

756
00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:25,960
Speaker 1: No, it's not. The timing was just.

757
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:30,440
Speaker 2: I think the timing was good. Yeah, honestly, I think

758
00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:32,399
Speaker 2: the timing was good. And at the end of the day,

759
00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:37,200
Speaker 2: we just have to remember, like Kentucky's been through this

760
00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:41,399
Speaker 2: before more than any program in college basketball. We have

761
00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:46,399
Speaker 2: succeeded through multiple coaches. No program in college basketball has

762
00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:50,200
Speaker 2: won with more different people than Kentucky has, and that

763
00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:54,000
Speaker 2: I think will continue. And also helping you win as court.

764
00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:58,600
Speaker 2: Physical therapy, oh, no company has helped people with their

765
00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:01,880
Speaker 2: physical therapy needs more than Court. It's KRT dot com.

766
00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:04,680
Speaker 2: There's no reason to be in pain. Call Court. They'll

767
00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:07,160
Speaker 2: help you work it out. You don't need a doctor's referral.

768
00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:09,840
Speaker 2: It's all there for you. It is court dot com,

769
00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:13,160
Speaker 2: It's kort dot com. Go to court dot com for

770
00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:17,160
