He was 31 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 3: actually a guy who when I did my show at 32 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,839 Speaker 3: the Chicago Bears game this year, he came so really 33 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:44,120 Speaker 3: nice guy.

Perfect timing. 39 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 4: Really appreciate him doing that. 40 00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 3: That was very, very nice. I would have hated he 41 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 3: had all these donuts if you had just like couldn't 42 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 3: use them, but that was still. Yeah, we were moving. 43 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 5: I saw him on the other side of the parking lot, 44 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 5: like that guy has a Uk had off there. We stop, Yeah, 45 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:08,639 Speaker 5: and good to see Jeff and I had about four 46 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:09,519 Speaker 5: of those for breakfast. 47 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:11,840 Speaker 3: So yeah, that was nice. And we got back last 48 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 3: night around you know, six six thirty of after Well, 49 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 3: it was really a great trip. I mean I think, 50 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 3: you know, I didn't know what to expect there Milwaukee. 51 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 3: I was thinking about this last night. I kind of 52 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,960 Speaker 3: thought they were gonna lose Sunday just I don't know, 53 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 3: I just kind of thought that was gonna happen. And 54 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,519 Speaker 3: then to get the win. It was weird because it 55 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 3: was a Kentucky trip with you know, some Kentucky fans, 56 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 3: but not the amount that we're kind of used to. 57 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 3: And yet then you get back to Lexington and I 58 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 3: do feel like there's like definitely a sense of kind 59 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 3: of joy and excitement. We haven't had this since twenty 60 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 3: nineteen of being able to go into a week for 61 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:51,399 Speaker 3: the second week end of the tournament. 62 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 4: And I suspect you guys to probably agree that they'll 63 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 4: flood Indianapolis this weekend. 64 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 3: You know that I would think. 65 00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 4: So they flooded Nashville, there were as many there as 66 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 4: we usually see it in Milwaukee. But they'll flood Indianapolis 67 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 4: this week. 68 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,519 Speaker 3: I know a lot of people going, including people who 69 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 3: don't go often. I mean, I told you, like, my 70 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:12,919 Speaker 3: mom wants to go, and you know, we're going to 71 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 3: start the process today of trying to figure out how 72 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 3: we're going to get my mom tickets. Uh, you know, 73 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 3: because it's the ticket market's weird right now because there's 74 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:27,280 Speaker 3: a ton of tickets, but they're like the price is 75 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:30,959 Speaker 3: people people are charging insane prices. Sure, now, I'm sure 76 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 3: that's gonna come down, Drew, don't you think. Don't you 77 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 3: know there's a little bit of people going. Ah, these 78 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 3: idiot Kentucky and Purdue and Tennessee fans. You gotta think 79 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 3: it's gonna come down a little bit. 80 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 5: By some people that bought it thinking their team could 81 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 5: be there. Now they're trying to make a buck because 82 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 5: they Illinois. Yeah yeah, I mean they're steep and then 83 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 5: a lot of it. You throw the fees on top 84 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 5: of it, and it's a it's a hard get in 85 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 5: price right now. 86 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 3: But I do expect any I mean, I know at 87 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 3: least won group of people that are going to Indianapolis 88 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 3: not even to go to the game. They're like, I 89 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 3: just want to be there for the environ pre and 90 00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 3: post game. I will say Indianapolis on Friday night, if 91 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,840 Speaker 3: we were to beat Tennessee, might be one of the 92 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 3: great Kentucky celebrations of all time, because it was like 93 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 3: that when we beat Louisville at night. If you remember 94 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 3: that Friday Night in Louisville in Indianapolis was it was 95 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 3: basically a Kentucky block party for blocks in Indianapolis. Maybe 96 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:22,040 Speaker 3: that would happen again. 97 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 4: I wondered if some fans would go up like they 98 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 4: do in Nashville, just to be a part of it, 99 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,840 Speaker 4: just soak up the environment, watch the game at ken 100 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 4: Rou or something Indy, and then just be a part 101 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 4: of the celebration party. 102 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,160 Speaker 3: After the war, we can still get hotels. I mean. 103 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,479 Speaker 3: The good thing about Indianapolis is because they host so 104 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 3: many big events there, there's a lot of hotels. So 105 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,479 Speaker 3: while I think the tickets are going to be hard 106 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:42,840 Speaker 3: to get, I actually don't know that the hotels will 107 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,040 Speaker 3: be now. I do feel like the city is a buzz, 108 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 3: you know, and I sort of measure that in two ways. 109 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,360 Speaker 3: One is the when you go out on the Monday 110 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 3: night after the game, how many just people in Kentucky 111 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 3: shirts do you see? Yes? And the answer was a lot. 112 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 3: I mean just looking here, every almost everybody has something 113 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 3: can on right now. Okay, I was about to say 114 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 3: you were the one that didn't, and you have one 115 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:06,839 Speaker 3: on under it too. It's like, you know, there's an 116 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 3: excitement just to wear Kentucky year. And then the second 117 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 3: is it feels old school to me how much we're 118 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:22,760 Speaker 3: into this stupid cereal the sweet a Bigs thing. No, 119 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:24,560 Speaker 3: I mean I really do like Okay, so when you 120 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 3: when I think of the early col years, everything like 121 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 3: there were always fun things happening. Right, you had the 122 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 3: the job Wall dance, Okay, you had the free Enis 123 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 3: t shirts right. Then the next year you had unibrow stuff. 124 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 3: Then the next year was the Neurlans Noel, the box cut. 125 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,840 Speaker 3: People would wear them on their head, right, And then 126 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:49,679 Speaker 3: it was the twins are coming, and so then people 127 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 3: would do things as twins, and there was and then 128 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 3: there was the platoon and everybody would wear the blue 129 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 3: shirt and the white shirt, and there were all these 130 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:03,279 Speaker 3: things that happened that sort of we're uniquely Kentucky fans 131 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 3: and how we reacted to something and made it a thing, 132 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 3: you know what I mean? Oh, yes, and we're and 133 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 3: now we haven't had that in a long time. We're 134 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:15,159 Speaker 3: doing this with this stupid dry cereal from England, so 135 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 3: you can't get it in Lexington. Apparently there were more 136 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 3: places that sold it than I realized, Like Public's the 137 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 3: Irish place which I was told you butchered the pronunciation. 138 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:27,919 Speaker 4: Yeah, on the whim, I didn't know what it was. 139 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:33,280 Speaker 3: What is it? I think we still we're efferting, but 140 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 3: they're out of it. They're getting it Thursday. But then, 141 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:40,479 Speaker 3: most amazingly to me, last night, we to bigs was 142 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 3: the number one selling cereal in the United States Amazon. 143 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,479 Speaker 3: What does that tell you in the United States, not 144 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 3: in Lexington, in the United States, which means hundreds, if 145 00:06:56,920 --> 00:07:00,200 Speaker 3: not thousands of people have gone online and bought this. 146 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 3: I would love to know what the company thinks, Like, 147 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 3: the company has to be going what is going on? 148 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, they had a staff meeting this morning. They're like, 149 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 4: for some reason, our numbers are up in the United States, 150 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 4: and they're really up in Kentucky. 151 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 3: And how have they not called him like house he 152 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 3: already not doing a commercial for them this week. I 153 00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 3: don't know. 154 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 5: Their last tweet was like six days ago. I would 155 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:23,880 Speaker 5: have been all over this. I would have been playing 156 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 5: up to Kentucky. I would have tried to create weed 157 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 5: to BIGX addictions around here. So it doesn't last longer 158 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 5: than a week. Just keep selling those boxes. 159 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 3: So I thought we might have some here today. 160 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 4: I did too, actually, and there's not. 161 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 3: I know there are some people who have mailed it 162 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 3: to the bar, so I assume we'll have it later 163 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 3: in the week. I thought someone would have it. I 164 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 3: was probably a little spoiled. I thought we were going 165 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 3: to get here and someone was going to have it, 166 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 3: and I was gonna try it because I'm all in 167 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 3: on this. But the reason I'm all in on it, Ryan, 168 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 3: is it feels like a throwback to those fun days 169 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 3: where we in KSR was part of this, but it 170 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 3: was the base as a whole, just took some little 171 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 3: thing and obsessed on it to showcase our craziness. It 172 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 3: feels like this is like that too. 173 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 4: Just because we feel like we got our team back 174 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 4: the last four or five years, we kind of feel 175 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 4: disconnected but I. 176 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 3: Just think it's there's a fun part. I mean, there's 177 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 3: like a this when we lose, there are times you 178 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 3: can sit there and go, why do we do this 179 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 3: to ourselves? Like this is not this isn't and it's 180 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 3: for fun and this is fun. I was with the 181 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:35,080 Speaker 3: exception of some moments with Reid, rob and Antonio, and 182 00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 3: then a little bit of how Oscar kind of had 183 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 3: moments where he sort of captured the fan base. I 184 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 3: just don't feel like we've had a lot of fun 185 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 3: since COVID, and I was reminded of that with all this, 186 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 3: how much fun it could be. 187 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:48,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think we're getting a little more of their 188 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 5: personalities too. They're a little enclosed there late in the Calgariya. 189 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:53,839 Speaker 5: I think part of that he didn't love the media. 190 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,439 Speaker 5: But I'm thinking even back to the twenty fifteen team, 191 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 5: do you remember they would stay up and play Nintendo 192 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 5: sixty four in the hotel room and Super Brothers became 193 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:03,959 Speaker 5: a big I think we made like fifty KSR posts 194 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 5: out of Super Smash Brothers people playing at home. It's 195 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:08,920 Speaker 5: like Kentucky fans latch on to whatever the players are 196 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:11,200 Speaker 5: doing or eating or wearing, and it makes them even 197 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 5: more a part of it. 198 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 3: And now you get Tennessee this week, right, I mean 199 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:17,439 Speaker 3: this is not just a Sweet sixteen game. This is 200 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,679 Speaker 3: against arguably your second biggest rival, right, I mean this 201 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:24,440 Speaker 3: is I think if you're ranking rivalries, I think Tennessee 202 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:28,320 Speaker 3: is probably second to Louisville. We have never played them 203 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 3: in the tournament. 204 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 4: I heard Tom Leed say that this morning, never play. 205 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:35,720 Speaker 3: Never played them in the tournament, beating them twice in 206 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 3: the year. I remember in twenty fourteen saying about that 207 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 3: game against Louisville, this will be an all timer of 208 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 3: a game, meaning the loser of this it will stick 209 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 3: with their fan base for a long time. Because we 210 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 3: had won in twenty twelve, they had won in twenty thirteen, 211 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:56,200 Speaker 3: it was kind of a tiebreaker. I think if I'm 212 00:09:56,240 --> 00:10:00,160 Speaker 3: a Tennessee fan, if I were to lose with this team, 213 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 3: with potentially Rick Barnes retire, yeah, and it'd be the 214 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 3: third time I lost to him in a row this year, 215 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 3: that would be an all timer drew for them. I'm 216 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:12,640 Speaker 3: not sure if it's an all timer for us. I 217 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 3: kind of don't think it is, but I do think 218 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 3: it is for them definitely. 219 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:17,960 Speaker 5: I think Kentucky's even won five of the last six 220 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 5: four in a row, several in a row at their place. 221 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 5: This is the first time they're meeting in the tournament, 222 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 5: and they want so bad to shut us up about 223 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 5: you all never make a final four. When I went 224 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 5: to Knoxville, I took a picture of their banners because 225 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,079 Speaker 5: it says like n it appearances. You know, they want 226 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:32,320 Speaker 5: to be able to shut us up on that and 227 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:35,080 Speaker 5: get to a final four. They call rick regular season Rick. 228 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 5: And if that could fall apart with Kentucky beating them 229 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:39,720 Speaker 5: yet again for a fifth time in a row, I 230 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 5: mean that would be hard to come back from. 231 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:42,680 Speaker 3: In the route, I think if you're a Tennessee fan, 232 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,319 Speaker 3: this week is almost like it was for Kentucky when 233 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 3: we played Louisville in New Orleans, Whereas I where I 234 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 3: thought Louisville had nothing to lose in that final four 235 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,840 Speaker 3: game and we had everything to lose in that game 236 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 3: where we were supposed to win the title. They didn't 237 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 3: even think they'd be there. I think there's a little 238 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 3: bit of that for Tennessee. Right If Rick Barnes leaves 239 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:05,440 Speaker 3: without a Final four, that era is over. Now, maybe 240 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 3: you get a coach that does it again. But maybe 241 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:11,080 Speaker 3: you don't right, still don't have a final four lose 242 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 3: to Kentucky. Now, if you were to win though, and 243 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 3: beat Kentucky and then go to your first final four, 244 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 3: you're talking about a legendary year for Tennessee. So I 245 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 3: actually think there's a lot on the line for the 246 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 3: balls this weekend. 247 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:24,679 Speaker 4: I agree with you. I think all the pressures on 248 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 4: them with then the Rick Barnes story definitely is a 249 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:28,720 Speaker 4: factor in it. I think the fact you know that 250 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 4: their two best players, Lanier and Ziggler, have played so 251 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,320 Speaker 4: poorly against us in their first two games, I think 252 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,080 Speaker 4: they're gonna feel that pressure that they got to step 253 00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 4: up and do something. 254 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 5: This is also a beloved team with a lot of 255 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:40,440 Speaker 5: guys that have been there a long time and this 256 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 5: is their last ride. 257 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:43,520 Speaker 3: I mean, Ziggler is this year nine. 258 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,560 Speaker 5: So I actually spoke to my dad last night about 259 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,439 Speaker 5: the game and he mentioned, like, Rick Barnes feels like 260 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 5: he raised half this team because somehow they didn't go portaling. 261 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 5: I mean most of them started as freshmen and are 262 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 5: now seniors and this is their last ride in Kentucky 263 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 5: can put the end to it. 264 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 3: All the more reason we should beat them. I think 265 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:03,560 Speaker 3: it would be so glorious to look at their little 266 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 3: sad faces when they walk out in their orange and 267 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:11,040 Speaker 3: to be able to basically say, Okay, it was nice 268 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 3: of you to try to be a basketball school, but 269 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 3: you're not, and that's okay. You're They're good at a 270 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 3: lot of other sports they wont I think they won 271 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 3: the baseball did last and then they went to the playoffs, 272 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 3: so they're they're good, but you know what you're not. 273 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 3: You're not Ryan Us in basketball. It would be nice 274 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:27,320 Speaker 3: to be able to say. 275 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 4: That, especially this is a year they were pounding their 276 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 4: chest in basketball there for a while, number one team 277 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 4: in the country. Everybody thought they were a Final Four bound, 278 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 4: and then they kind of stumbled a little bit. So, yeah, 279 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 4: they had football, baseball, and they thought basketball was going 280 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:38,960 Speaker 4: to join them this year. 281 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:42,080 Speaker 3: I was on a Vegas gambling show last night and 282 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,960 Speaker 3: they were talking as if like the Vegas world is 283 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 3: shocked at Kentucky's underdog. They're like, how can you beat 284 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 3: this team twice and you be the underdog. I do 285 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 3: feel like, Drew, we are still the underdog. I mean, 286 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 3: there's a part of me that wonders, especially that game 287 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 3: in Knoxville. How in the world did we win the UFL. 288 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 3: I mean, like he been going back and looking at 289 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 3: the box score. How did we win that game in Knoxville. 290 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:05,840 Speaker 3: It's hard for me to picture. 291 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:08,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, remember that's the game they shot a 292 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:10,719 Speaker 5: million threes and just kept breaking them. 293 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 3: That's how we actually won. 294 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,720 Speaker 5: But Kentucky won before that as an underdog in Nashville 295 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,160 Speaker 5: or Knoxville before that is an underdog in Knoxville. For 296 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:20,720 Speaker 5: the underdog spot has been good to Kentucky in this series. 297 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 3: Well, I'm looking forward to it, but it's also nice 298 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 3: to have this sort of fan base happiness back. Oh yeah, 299 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 3: it's a lot of fun. And these guys, I mean 300 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,960 Speaker 3: they are in my opinion, they're already gonna be a 301 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,840 Speaker 3: beloved team, but they're like one win away from getting 302 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:42,079 Speaker 3: into like really beloved status. If you can knock Tennessee 303 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 3: out of the Sweet sixteen with this, you know, group 304 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 3: of vagabonds, as I've said, that would be you know, 305 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 3: that would be one I think people remember and put 306 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:53,200 Speaker 3: put in in the books. 307 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 5: What would you have thought if when we were sitting 308 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:57,320 Speaker 5: there in rough last April, if someone said you're gonna 309 00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:59,560 Speaker 5: beat Tennessee to go to the Lait eight. We wouldn't 310 00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 5: have even what if you tell me. 311 00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 3: If you you're gonna have one player that everybody thinks 312 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:07,440 Speaker 3: is gonna be really good and then he's gonna get 313 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 3: hurt and then you're gonna go to the Sweet sixteen, 314 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 3: you just you wouldn't. 315 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 5: Making play tournament. It wasn't even had an offer at 316 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:16,600 Speaker 5: that point last last year. 317 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:18,559 Speaker 3: Yeah, and if somebody had said me that, we would 318 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:22,600 Speaker 3: call somebody sweet Mountain Angel baby on the team. I 319 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 3: don't think I haven't called him that, but other people 320 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 3: have A five nine twenty two eighty seven text machine 321 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 3: is seven seven two seven seven four five two five four. 322 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:32,320 Speaker 3: We will take a break. Come back here at ks Bars, 323 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 3: Kentucky sports radio work. I'm back in his Kentucky sports 324 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 3: radio Metallica. Is that right? That's right. I don't know 325 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 3: the song, but I could just tell by the vote voice. 326 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 2: You called him vagabonds. He says, it's the only song 327 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 2: I can think that had vagabond in it. 328 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:51,160 Speaker 3: Uh no, there's one more. There's a very famous one 329 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 3: that said that has vagabond. What is it?

But there's a famous song that has a 338 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 3: vagabond in it. Chris says, Matt, you thought UK was 339 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:15,680 Speaker 3: gonna lose and you didn't stay in the arena for 340 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:19,480 Speaker 3: the game. Very weird behavior. Well, I think you have 341 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 3: very weird behavior, Chris. I think it's perfectly normal to 342 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 3: think you might lose a game. I always hate when 343 00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:30,680 Speaker 3: people say, oh, you predicted can lose. What a what 344 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:33,600 Speaker 3: a stupid prediction. If you just predicted him to win 345 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 3: every game, like why even listen? You'd just be like, well, 346 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 3: I guess we're winning because we're playing. I mean, do 347 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 3: you think we're gonna go fourteen and oh in football? 348 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,320 Speaker 3: We're gonna go forty and oh in basketball, which hasn't 349 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 3: happened since nineteen seventy five. Yeah, Matt, how could you 350 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 3: ever pick him to lose? By the way I picked 351 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 3: him to win? On the show. I'm just in the 352 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:53,160 Speaker 3: back of my head thought we were gonna lose. 353 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:55,240 Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't love picking against him, but I'd say 354 00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 5: five or six times this season an SEC player, I 355 00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 5: had to put the graphic up with another team. 356 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 3: On there gonna lose sometimes, like like it's part of it, 357 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 3: and people are like, oh, could you put it Kentucky? Like, 358 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:08,560 Speaker 3: I guess if you're like a wellness guru, you would 359 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 3: only think positivity. But we try to like give our actual. 360 00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 4: Thoughts were so we're supposed to act like we kind 361 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:14,560 Speaker 4: of know what we're talking about. 362 00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 3: Once we don't. 363 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 6: But I mean we get lucky sometimes you still get 364 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:21,080 Speaker 6: You get feelings in your gut sometimes and I was 365 00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 6: pleasantly surprised about my gut this time. I don't, uh, 366 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 6: you forgot what you're excited, but I just sentence right there, Shannon, 367 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:34,320 Speaker 6: did you hear that that little mumble of wards that 368 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 6: was like the reference refere that smirch that's it. 369 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 3: I don't besmirt you. 370 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:46,920 Speaker 4: I don't besmirch you for picking against Kentucky, but it 371 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 4: is a little weird that you don't go to the games. 372 00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 3: I'll admit that you've but you've done this with me 373 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:53,120 Speaker 3: now for yeah, for a for a decade. 374 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 4: I still think it's a little weird. 375 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 2: Is a little weird, that is fully weird. 376 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:00,880 Speaker 3: And it's not weird. There are every one listening, well 377 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:04,560 Speaker 3: not everyone, but most people listening to this have at 378 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 3: some point in their room, like they walk to the 379 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 3: other room, right, you did that, you flip the channel 380 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:12,920 Speaker 3: for a minute out of frustrating. But see, I can't 381 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 3: do any of that when I'm at the game. Whereas 382 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:16,280 Speaker 3: if when I'm in the lobby, if I want to walk, 383 00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:18,480 Speaker 3: I can come back. I can't at the game. Your stuff. 384 00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:20,119 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's one thing though if you leave, like in 385 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 2: the last five minutes because it's closed, you didn't even 386 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 2: you weren't even there for the tip off. 387 00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:26,359 Speaker 3: You were gone at the beginning. It's interesting, though, I 388 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 3: find the beginning of it worse than the end really 389 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:31,360 Speaker 3: because at the end like it's gonna go one way 390 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:33,600 Speaker 3: or the other, But in the beginning there's this like 391 00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:36,359 Speaker 3: it's just this waiting. Okay, well we're down eight, are 392 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:38,000 Speaker 3: we gonna come back? Well they got it back to six, 393 00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 3: Well now it's back to eight. You know, Like where's 394 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:44,280 Speaker 3: at the end. There's gonna be a resolution one way 395 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 3: or the other. 396 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 4: I get more tents in the end, by far, I 397 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:49,680 Speaker 4: mean even the game of the day gets a little one. 398 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:51,119 Speaker 4: And they made their run. You know, I felt myself 399 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:53,359 Speaker 4: tighten up a little bit. Part of it was Drew. 400 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 3: I really wanted it for really everybody, all the fans, 401 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:01,720 Speaker 3: but also for Art Pope. I think when Cow won, 402 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:05,359 Speaker 3: while to me, those are completely different things. And I 403 00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:08,520 Speaker 3: said that Saturday night and predictably got the oh, well, 404 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:13,600 Speaker 3: now you say it. Cow beating Arkansas or beating Kansas 405 00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:16,320 Speaker 3: doesn't have anything to do with Mark Pope, you know, 406 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 3: Jeff Goodman, I actually thought said it really well. Cow 407 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:21,640 Speaker 3: had a miserable season for two thirds of the year, 408 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 3: but then he turned it around and he deserves praise 409 00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:27,200 Speaker 3: for that. But Pope's had a good year all year, 410 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:31,200 Speaker 3: and if we had lost and they won, the fact 411 00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:33,800 Speaker 3: that I think Pope has done an amazing job for 412 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 3: a handful of people would have gotten washed away. I 413 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:40,000 Speaker 3: actually don't think that happens this time. If we lose 414 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 3: an Arkansas beats Texas Tech, as long as they don't 415 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 3: make a Final four, I think are I think most 416 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:47,119 Speaker 3: people will just skip over that. But I think if 417 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:49,600 Speaker 3: we had lost in the second round, it probably would 418 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:51,639 Speaker 3: have mattered to people, and that was why I really 419 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 3: wanted them to win. I agree with you, but I 420 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 3: still didn't have the urge to go sit in a 421 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 3: bank Loga. He was supposed to know. I will have 422 00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:01,400 Speaker 3: your back the most. I'll have your back on one thing. 423 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:03,320 Speaker 5: You've done this since I've known you, so it's not 424 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:06,040 Speaker 5: like a one off situation with Pope cow this team. 425 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 5: I mean, you were doing this in twenty twelve. 426 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:12,200 Speaker 3: So you want to know how much I'd given up 427 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 3: on the last few years. I didn't walk out the 428 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 3: last few years, like literally, I had gotten so resigned 429 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:25,440 Speaker 3: to losing Against Oakland. You sat next to your home, 430 00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:29,439 Speaker 3: sit there the whole game, you watched Oakland be I 431 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 3: the last game. I got nervous before the last game. 432 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 3: I walked out before Troy was Saint Peter's three years ago, 433 00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:42,280 Speaker 3: and I think Saint Peter's broke me, and I was like, 434 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:47,120 Speaker 3: we're just gonna lose. I really do. I think that 435 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 3: that did it for me, and it felt we It 436 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:53,440 Speaker 3: was interesting. Troy was the first time that that feeling 437 00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:56,440 Speaker 3: came back, that nervousness, which is a good thing. 438 00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:58,640 Speaker 4: In my opinion, I think you said you wanted it 439 00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:01,920 Speaker 4: so bad for the fan base, for this bar, for 440 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 4: Mark Pope. Everything you wanted it so bad. 441 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:07,120 Speaker 3: Not even honestly. This time it wasn't for the bar. 442 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,399 Speaker 3: We have the Sweet sixteen coming this weekend, which is 443 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:13,479 Speaker 3: which is usually. It was really for these fans and 444 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:16,439 Speaker 3: for Mark Pope. I didn't want a summer of phone 445 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:20,639 Speaker 3: calls of John Caliperry made the second weekend and Mark 446 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:24,960 Speaker 3: Pope didn't, and so but it was nice to have 447 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,960 Speaker 3: the nervousness back. I'm really only thinking about this right now. 448 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:30,680 Speaker 3: I had not walked out of watching the game since 449 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 3: Saint Peter's Wow, because I think I just thought we're 450 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 3: gonna lose. So you're feeling alive again. I do feel alive. 451 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 3: You're back. It matters to me again. I actually think 452 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:42,440 Speaker 3: to a lot of fans, this is like, oh yes, 453 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:45,159 Speaker 3: it's a lot of fans that I'm hearing from that 454 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:48,760 Speaker 3: are my age between like Drew's age to a little 455 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,880 Speaker 3: bit older than me, so let's say thirty five to fifty. 456 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 3: I think for a lot of us, Ryan, we feel 457 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 3: alive again about this team. I mean, we were alive 458 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:00,960 Speaker 3: about other things. In our life, but for this team 459 00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:04,160 Speaker 3: it matters again in a way that I think had 460 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 3: kind of been taken from us. 461 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:09,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, we had that three or four years of gloom. 462 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:11,679 Speaker 4: We were so afraid, I think. 463 00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:17,040 Speaker 3: Or indifferent, which is worse. Right, being nervous is like 464 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:21,359 Speaker 3: being alive, but being indifferent and not caring is worse. 465 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 3: And I think a portion of our fan base, especially 466 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:26,879 Speaker 3: the older ones Drew had become indifferent. 467 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 5: Well, I know plenty of people who thought, I'm not 468 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,159 Speaker 5: gonna get excited and spend money on this team just 469 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 5: to have my heart broken again before Pope, just looking 470 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 5: at the last couple of years, some even going all 471 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,400 Speaker 5: the way back to Wisconsin, just thought I can't keep 472 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:39,560 Speaker 5: doing this and having it in the way it has. 473 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,400 Speaker 5: And then Pope was the big, great reset on everything, 474 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:44,720 Speaker 5: whatever you felt, and it's brought a lot of excitement back, that. 475 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 3: Nervous feeling that I got Sunday right where you wake 476 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 3: up in the morning, you're a little nervous, and you 477 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:53,080 Speaker 3: start reading every piece of information you can find. You 478 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:55,359 Speaker 3: kind of feel like you're playing like stretch. Yeah, and 479 00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 3: you stretch, you know, and you start you make sure 480 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:03,160 Speaker 3: you eat a good breakfast and all that, like Cherwita bis. Yeah, 481 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:06,480 Speaker 3: that's being like alive as a fan, and it had 482 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:08,520 Speaker 3: become dead to me. I remember when we were in Greensboro, 483 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:13,360 Speaker 3: when we were in Greensboro on the Saturday between games. 484 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:15,720 Speaker 3: I'm not gonna say what happened, but I wouldn't have 485 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 3: been like that before. We were just like we almost 486 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 3: joined the army. Yeah, we said on those recliners in 487 00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:26,160 Speaker 3: door dash like, but I was like, we're gonna lose 488 00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:29,040 Speaker 3: to Kansas State. We're certainly gonna lose. It was. It's 489 00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:31,360 Speaker 3: just nice to feel that fan alive again. 490 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, going to the arena feeling optimistic like we're gonna 491 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:37,359 Speaker 4: win this game, not going to the arena dreading what 492 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 4: could possibly happen. 493 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:40,359 Speaker 3: What do you think? Do you think you think we 494 00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:44,400 Speaker 3: got you think you know? Like that's that's and now 495 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:45,880 Speaker 3: we've got that again and we got a whole week 496 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:47,359 Speaker 3: of it, which should be fun. All r.

But 518 00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:47,720 Speaker 3: this is a good one too. 519 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:49,720 Speaker 4: What are vagabond chowes anyway? 520 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 3: So you know vagabond is a person who just like 521 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:55,199 Speaker 3: like trolls. Yeah, you travel. He's like, uh, you know, 522 00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:57,920 Speaker 3: you can't be stuck in one place you're you're a vagabond. 523 00:23:57,920 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 3: And also over the years, it's kind of meant to 524 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 3: be kind of been seen as like a lower class 525 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 3: a person, so a vagabond shoes would be these vagabond 526 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:12,160 Speaker 3: shoes are leaving today like he's wonder around, under around, 527 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 3: but then but he's still New York, New York, at 528 00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 3: his at his heart. 529 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:17,520 Speaker 4: I thought that was it when Shannon plant I said 530 00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:18,400 Speaker 4: that's the one you're talking about. 531 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 3: Not quite. One person writes text machine is full of 532 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,719 Speaker 3: people agreeing with me. Okay, I'm thirty six and one 533 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:26,880 Speaker 3: hundred percent agree with you about feeling alive. One person rights, 534 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:29,520 Speaker 3: I got up in the morning and packed and unpacked clothes, 535 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,760 Speaker 3: which is my game day routine. It's an interesting thing. 536 00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:37,400 Speaker 3: I hate packing. This person uses packing as their nervousness. 537 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:39,040 Speaker 5: Where they just packed an unpacked like they're not going anywhere, 538 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 5: going anywhere else, right, Hey, whatever works. 539 00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 3: I'm not judging anyone how much. It's weird. 540 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 4: That's that's a little weird. 541 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 3: One person writes, Matt, I remember you and Max talking 542 00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:51,920 Speaker 3: about how you got in your car and drove around 543 00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 3: during the Saint Peter's game. I challenged the fact that 544 00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:58,480 Speaker 3: you were nervous. No, that's the point. The fact that 545 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:04,639 Speaker 3: I was driving around showed I was nervous. Providence, Kansas State, Oakland. 546 00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 3: I sent in the arena and watched the whole game 547 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:10,840 Speaker 3: because I was dead inside. Weren't we all when you 548 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 3: could just watch it? Because whatever? 549 00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 5: Who cares when they're a game? I guess it won 550 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:15,679 Speaker 5: a tournament game. But you just drove around New Circle. 551 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 3: I think you've told about Saint Peter's Saint Peter's droves. 552 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 3: You didn't go, that's right. I just drove around New Circle, 553 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:23,320 Speaker 3: and I kept thinking, when we get a lead, I 554 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 3: was gonna pull in the chs bar and celebrate with everybody. 555 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:27,439 Speaker 3: And then I pull in, and then they would hit 556 00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:29,080 Speaker 3: a shot and be tied again, and I'd pull right 557 00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 3: back out. 558 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 5: Should I be worried that I have the exact same 559 00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:35,440 Speaker 5: hotel as I did for the Saint Peter's trip. 560 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:38,080 Speaker 3: When that's that's that's bad mojo. 561 00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:40,160 Speaker 5: I think I'm gonna burn a Tati Washington and Doug 562 00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:41,399 Speaker 5: Edter Jersey in the trash cannon. 563 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:43,920 Speaker 3: All right? So if I'm nine two eight oh twenty 564 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:45,920 Speaker 3: two eighty seven, I want to talk the portal open. 565 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:47,920 Speaker 3: I want to talk about that. But let's go Uh 566 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:48,600 Speaker 3: who's up first? 567 00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:50,600 Speaker 2: All right, let's get to Devon. 568 00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 3: Devin. Go ahead, Devin, Hey boys, go Cats, Go Cats. 569 00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:02,359 Speaker 7: Oh yeah, just calling up here from the snowy Upper 570 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:07,119 Speaker 7: Peninsula and just wanted to say that, like, I don't know, 571 00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 7: I think that the divorce has gone pretty well. 572 00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:10,480 Speaker 8: What do you guys think? 573 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 3: I mean, I think that's fairly Yes, I appreciate the 574 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:19,960 Speaker 3: call the divorce. Look, three schools have all gotten better 575 00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:22,639 Speaker 3: because of the divorce. And now I question whether Arkansas 576 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:26,400 Speaker 3: you know, the tournament. I appreciate the call. The tournament 577 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:31,040 Speaker 3: can give you false hope and it can also false 578 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 3: make you sad. Right, Arkansas and I have a good year, 579 00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:37,440 Speaker 3: but they got better as the year went on. Whether 580 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:40,399 Speaker 3: or not that will work long term, we'll see, but 581 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:43,639 Speaker 3: it's worked in this tournament. B YU is certainly for 582 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 3: the better because they got this dude that's given all 583 00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:48,680 Speaker 3: the money, and I think we're for the better too. 584 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:51,000 Speaker 3: So it might be the rare three way divorce. 585 00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:53,399 Speaker 4: And they kind of did it three different ways. You know, 586 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 4: Cal lost his best player, then lost his second best player, 587 00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 4: and to do still found a way to do it. 588 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:01,640 Speaker 4: We lost half our twa Andrews this year and had 589 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,679 Speaker 4: zero points returning coming back this season, and then he 590 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:05,440 Speaker 4: was able to do it. 591 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:08,040 Speaker 5: And yeah, I mean their turnaround has been pretty amazing 592 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 5: to watch. But also Arkansas in the tournament wasn't that bad. 593 00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:14,000 Speaker 5: They went Elite eight, like Elite eight Sweet sixteen with Musselman, 594 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,720 Speaker 5: so that they didn't have the tournament draft that we 595 00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:18,000 Speaker 5: had their years down a little bit. 596 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:22,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's gonna have to completely rebuild that roster. Yeah, 597 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:25,879 Speaker 3: I mean, he'll probably bring back Billy Richmond maybe and 598 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:28,480 Speaker 3: Carter Knox, but that everybody else can be gone. 599 00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:31,119 Speaker 5: It'll be interesting what DJ Wagner does because that's his 600 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:33,440 Speaker 5: that's his boy. But it's clearly not working out the 601 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:36,160 Speaker 5: way DJ thought it would work out with his NBA prospects. 602 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:38,680 Speaker 3: Give him a third try. He's got a really good 603 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,200 Speaker 3: recruiting class. But I kind of I wonder like next 604 00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 3: year is going to be like his Kentucky teams in 605 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:44,400 Speaker 3: the sense they're all gonna be freshman. 606 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 5: He got the kid with the shovel and the construction 607 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:50,440 Speaker 5: vests from the UK visit. That's all the Khalik Thomas. Yeah, 608 00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:52,879 Speaker 5: it turns out the shovel and the little birthday crown 609 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:53,360 Speaker 5: worked out. 610 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 3: After all. That's interesting. Now it'll be uh all right, 611 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:58,520 Speaker 3: so well, let's do one more and then then we'll 612 00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 3: do talking about the court. Who's next, Let's go to 613 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:02,080 Speaker 3: Jay and Lennon, Jay and Lyndon. 614 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:05,320 Speaker 9: Go ahead, Hey, I get two quick things. I want 615 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:07,960 Speaker 9: to talk about the SEC. Matt, you're not talking about this. 616 00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:11,280 Speaker 9: For the SEC's success in the tournament in the past 617 00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:13,840 Speaker 9: was based on us having a different style. I used 618 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:15,480 Speaker 9: to say, it was more like having a football team 619 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:18,800 Speaker 9: on the basketball court. Yes, this weekend, Matt, we are 620 00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 9: the best players we do. 621 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:24,480 Speaker 3: I mean, this is without question. The reason the SEC 622 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:27,960 Speaker 3: has been so good in the tournament is we've always 623 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 3: had the best athleticism. Ryan always, even the bad teams 624 00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:33,360 Speaker 3: had crazy athletes. And I used to think it helped 625 00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 3: Kentucky in the tournament that we'd be very athletic and 626 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:38,959 Speaker 3: be playing these teams that didn't have athletes. But now 627 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,160 Speaker 3: they also have the most talent. And you saw it. 628 00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:45,120 Speaker 3: The Arkansas Saint John's game was the perfect example. Saint 629 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 3: John's had not seen athletes like Arkansas. They just had 630 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 3: the big East is not as athletics, and they would 631 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,160 Speaker 3: attack the rim the same way they did in the 632 00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:55,880 Speaker 3: Big East, and the Arkansas would players would just block it. 633 00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 3: I mean they just they were not used to that athleticism. 634 00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 3: And I think that's helped this same thing with Old 635 00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 3: Miss Iowa State. You could see it. Iowa State was like, whoa, 636 00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:08,680 Speaker 3: these Old Miss guys are physical and athletic, and they 637 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 3: just had not seen it. 638 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 4: And I never really thought of our team being athletic 639 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 4: and physically like that. But it definitely bothered Illinois. 640 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 3: But well, Amari is But I think it's actually oddly 641 00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:21,040 Speaker 3: the difference for us is we're not scared of athletes 642 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 3: because we played against them all year. I still believe 643 00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:26,920 Speaker 3: that Drew that we have the least athletic team in 644 00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 3: the SEC. I do. I think Omari's a great athlete, 645 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:34,840 Speaker 3: always a good athlete. But Brand's not a good athlete. 646 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:38,120 Speaker 3: Butler's a pretty good athlete, but he's heard. Carr's not 647 00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:41,360 Speaker 3: a good athlete, Olmanor's not a good athlete. No One 648 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:44,600 Speaker 3: and Perry are not good athletes. Chandler's a pretty good athlete. 649 00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:47,760 Speaker 3: But but we've learned to play against guys like this. 650 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, maybe a slight athletic edge against Illinois, 651 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 5: but that team defense was something we had never seen before. 652 00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 3: There's that clip going around. 653 00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,120 Speaker 5: Don't know if I'll watch that possession where they're defending 654 00:29:57,160 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 5: the pick and roll and Kentucky is just shutting down 655 00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:02,320 Speaker 5: every single they're switching. I mean, it is beautiful to watch. 656 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:05,280 Speaker 5: And that's not the overpowering athleticism. That was just Mark 657 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 5: Pope having them prepared, the guys hustling. 658 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:09,520 Speaker 3: And they've gotten better. You know, I questioned at times 659 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:11,600 Speaker 3: this year whether or not the defense could get better. 660 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:14,280 Speaker 3: It has gotten better. It's certainly gotten better, and it's 661 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:17,920 Speaker 3: gotten to be, if not locked down, at least effective. 662 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:19,720 Speaker 4: It may be the first time all year we can 663 00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:22,120 Speaker 4: say defense kind of won that game against Illinois. 664 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 3: Now, I still don't know if we have enough defense 665 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:28,040 Speaker 3: for like a Florida in Alabama, but for for these 666 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 3: teams we've played, sure we haven't. We have enough offense 667 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:32,840 Speaker 3: for Tennessee. We've seen it before, right. 668 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:34,480 Speaker 4: That's we said, you know, even though we're not the 669 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:37,160 Speaker 4: most athletic team in the world, it bothered Illinois because 670 00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:39,560 Speaker 4: they're not used to playing against those athletic teams. 671 00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:42,640 Speaker 3: I saw a TikTok that was talking about how Mark 672 00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:46,480 Speaker 3: Pope has become one of and then he mentioned a 673 00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:49,440 Speaker 3: couple other coaches really good at the UH at the 674 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 3: at the Paysia like the Paysia cut. Do you know 675 00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:53,000 Speaker 3: what that is? 676 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 4: I have no idea what that is. 677 00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:56,560 Speaker 3: I had seen it, you know what it is. I'd 678 00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:58,880 Speaker 3: seen it, but I didn't really know what it was called. 679 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 3: But basically, let's say you want to get Kobe bre 680 00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:05,680 Speaker 3: A shot, right, you have LaMotte, Butler, somebody have the ball. 681 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:08,160 Speaker 3: Breya comes off to the side and comes and sets 682 00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:12,040 Speaker 3: the pick okay, and then Butler tries to go around it. 683 00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:16,040 Speaker 3: And if Brea's man does not help for a second, 684 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 3: Butler goes to the basket. But if breys man even 685 00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 3: for one second moves over, bread cuts out to three 686 00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 3: point line and gets a shot. And they call it 687 00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:27,920 Speaker 3: a Pagia cut. Basically because paigea Stoyakovic, it would it 688 00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:31,320 Speaker 3: would would be the Screener ault. It's picking pop with 689 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:34,480 Speaker 3: a big but with but with with Paysia, it was 690 00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:36,920 Speaker 3: like more just to get the shot, and the goal 691 00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:41,240 Speaker 3: is have a penetrator that just makes Paige's man stop 692 00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:44,920 Speaker 3: for a millisecond. And we did that like three times. 693 00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:48,880 Speaker 3: UH Sunday if you go look with Butler and Kobe bro. 694 00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:50,840 Speaker 4: I think Kobe brand is just a different player right now. 695 00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:53,400 Speaker 4: He's doing things he was not and maybe he could 696 00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:56,680 Speaker 4: not do earlier this season. Gootn'ty shot getting him create 697 00:31:56,760 --> 00:31:59,040 Speaker 4: enough space like you just said, to get his shot off. 698 00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 3: Well, the one play he took the ball three point line, 699 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 3: head faked, stepped in, head faked again, then shot a 700 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:06,160 Speaker 3: free throw that was a great That was like an 701 00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:07,720 Speaker 3: NBA possession right there. 702 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:09,480 Speaker 5: That guy guarded him as still dizzy from trying to 703 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:11,320 Speaker 5: find him on that one. And I've noticed one of 704 00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:14,480 Speaker 5: Colin Chandler's threes he used Kobe's pump fake sidestep move 705 00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:17,120 Speaker 5: and even credited Kobe after the game for teaching him that. 706 00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:19,160 Speaker 5: So it's rubbing off on all the other guys too. 707 00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:22,480 Speaker 5: Did you see Kyle Wilcher's tweet this morning? I thought 708 00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 5: it was kind of awesome. 709 00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 3: So I saw. We were at lunch yesterday and we 710 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:29,720 Speaker 3: saw a picture of Kyle Wilcher. Think in your mind, 711 00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:31,719 Speaker 3: what Kyle Wilcher looks like. He don't look like that 712 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 3: any No, he does not. He's got a sleeve full 713 00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 3: of tats, he's got blonde hair, spiked up. 714 00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:39,040 Speaker 4: Uh huh. 715 00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:41,200 Speaker 3: I mean so I said, I tweet out he was 716 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:44,200 Speaker 3: going through his birdman face cause he looked like it. 717 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:49,040 Speaker 3: He retweeted it and said nah, And then it was 718 00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 3: a picture of Colin Chandler because he kind of looks 719 00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:54,040 Speaker 3: like Colin Chandler. But he was basically like, I'm going 720 00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:57,160 Speaker 3: through my Colin Chandler. That's cool. I think that's cool 721 00:32:57,160 --> 00:33:01,160 Speaker 3: seeing former guys embracing the program like that new coach. 722 00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:02,080 Speaker 3: I thought that was cool. 723 00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:04,240 Speaker 5: Well, after Arkansas, we saw a few of them show 724 00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:06,360 Speaker 5: how their colors are and it's most of the guys 725 00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:08,680 Speaker 5: who didn't do anything in the tournament. So now that Kentucky, 726 00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:11,200 Speaker 5: since Kentucky's made the Sweet sixteen, we've seen Michael Kidd, 727 00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:13,560 Speaker 5: Gilchris Willie, a bunch of the players that had a 728 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 5: lot of success with cal are showing uh that there's 729 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:18,240 Speaker 5: still big Blue, lots of tweeting about it.

The video in the Hurley situation 827 00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:46,439 Speaker 5: got twenty times the views because. 828 00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:47,440 Speaker 3: Of how the SI traveled it. 829 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:49,879 Speaker 5: If he had just let it disappear, sure people would 830 00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:51,399 Speaker 5: have seen it and talked about it, but he made 831 00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:52,120 Speaker 5: it infinitely worse. 832 00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:55,320 Speaker 3: Here's what I don't understand about Danny Hurley. He clearly 833 00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:58,839 Speaker 3: wants to be this dude, right He clearly wants to 834 00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:01,840 Speaker 3: be the jerk. He used wrestling terms. He wants to 835 00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:04,320 Speaker 3: be the heel. He wants to be the bag guy. Okay, 836 00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:08,200 Speaker 3: then I'm going to dislike you. That's clearly what you want. 837 00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:11,880 Speaker 3: And then they complain about not getting a fair shake. 838 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:17,040 Speaker 3: You're an ass. You are doing that intentionally. It's not 839 00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:20,799 Speaker 3: like you're accidentally doing this, so people are gonna hate you. 840 00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:23,600 Speaker 3: Ryan And I don't hate him, but I think he's 841 00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:27,120 Speaker 3: good for the sport, but he's clearly an ass. 842 00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:29,480 Speaker 4: Right yeah, And I think it reflects that arrogant, egotistical 843 00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:31,680 Speaker 4: attitude that some like the n c a A or 844 00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:35,560 Speaker 4: you can't have that. They can bully smaller people no offense, 845 00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:36,320 Speaker 4: that's okay. 846 00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:38,560 Speaker 3: It's also not like a written story small. 847 00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:41,560 Speaker 4: I didn't mean it that way. I meant the lesser. 848 00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:46,839 Speaker 3: No, it's not magabonds sagabond. He's not just small, he's 849 00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:47,680 Speaker 3: also now less. 850 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:50,520 Speaker 5: It's also not like a written report that could be false. 851 00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:53,360 Speaker 5: It's a video where it's their actions being seen. 852 00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:55,480 Speaker 4: That's true. It happened. 853 00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:57,600 Speaker 3: He said it like he like he said it. 854 00:38:57,640 --> 00:38:58,840 Speaker 4: Wait, deny it. 855 00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:00,040 Speaker 3: What do you want to do? 856 00:38:59,800 --> 00:38:59,960 Speaker 9: Do you? 857 00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:04,680 Speaker 3: What do you think if Hurley had come here? Is 858 00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:07,440 Speaker 3: it just like? I mean, our fans would take up 859 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:09,960 Speaker 3: for all this. I mean, the reality is I mean, 860 00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:12,920 Speaker 3: let's be real, this is a fan culture. If he 861 00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:16,040 Speaker 3: did all this, we would take up for it. But 862 00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:18,760 Speaker 3: he's still a jerk. He would just be our jerk. 863 00:39:19,239 --> 00:39:22,120 Speaker 5: Yeah, we would justify the behavior. Probably not the right 864 00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:23,799 Speaker 5: thing to do, but it'd be one of us. 865 00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:26,520 Speaker 3: Situation. Yeah, I mean, it's the same thing as politics, 866 00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:30,880 Speaker 3: you know, like if the Democrats had a Trump, the 867 00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:34,920 Speaker 3: Republicans would hate it, and vice versa. If the Democrats 868 00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:37,040 Speaker 3: had a Trump, we would take up for a lot 869 00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:40,160 Speaker 3: of his nonsense because it's a team thing, like, that's 870 00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:42,600 Speaker 3: what this is. And I feel like that probably would 871 00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:44,200 Speaker 3: have been true with Danny Hurley too. 872 00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:46,160 Speaker 4: We all did it when they hired Billy. We kind 873 00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:48,200 Speaker 4: of did all that. You know, he's married to basketball, 874 00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:49,719 Speaker 4: you know, and the kind of we. 875 00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:51,960 Speaker 3: Did say he was married to basketball. 876 00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:54,000 Speaker 4: And kind of overlook some of the things that maybe 877 00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:56,759 Speaker 4: we shouldn't have early on. But then it There's one difference. 878 00:39:56,440 --> 00:39:58,719 Speaker 3: Between sports and politics. I say this all the time. 879 00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:01,560 Speaker 3: Is what makes it dangerous that politics has become a 880 00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:04,480 Speaker 3: team sport is Unlike in sports, at the end of 881 00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:06,920 Speaker 3: the day, you haven't winning a loss, so there is 882 00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:10,960 Speaker 3: something objective to grade you on. In politics, you can 883 00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:13,080 Speaker 3: make anything a win or loss if you want to, 884 00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:15,279 Speaker 3: So that makes it harder. But in sports, if Danny 885 00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:17,120 Speaker 3: Hurley had come here and won, he could have done 886 00:40:17,160 --> 00:40:19,879 Speaker 3: all this stuff, and if he lost, we would have hated. 887 00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:22,719 Speaker 3: That would have been that would have been the sequence. 888 00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:26,520 Speaker 3: So who's next. Let's go to Joe Bob, Joe Bob, 889 00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:27,000 Speaker 3: how are you? 890 00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:29,040 Speaker 9: I'm good? 891 00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:29,760 Speaker 8: How are you today? 892 00:40:30,160 --> 00:40:30,600 Speaker 3: Good? 893 00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:34,680 Speaker 8: Just a quick note, I wasn't gonna I wasn't playing 894 00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:38,520 Speaker 8: on saying this, but on Danny Hurley, he's terrible. I mean, 895 00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:41,640 Speaker 8: I'm I'm Ryan's agent, and I never thought i'd reach 896 00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:44,719 Speaker 8: a point that, you know, somebody was more dislikable than 897 00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:49,640 Speaker 8: Bobby that was. But I think he's he's there, talk 898 00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:55,680 Speaker 8: about what he's getting there. Yeah, being a fan, I've 899 00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:57,840 Speaker 8: got a problem, and I don't know. I don't know 900 00:40:57,880 --> 00:40:59,319 Speaker 8: how to fix it. I don't know if I need 901 00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:02,279 Speaker 8: to fix it. But every time in my life I've 902 00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:05,160 Speaker 8: ever filled out of bracket, it's always Kentucky. It doesn't 903 00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:08,840 Speaker 8: know what seed they are or who they're playing. I 904 00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:12,759 Speaker 8: think we're gonna win every game. And I don't know 905 00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:14,960 Speaker 8: when that started. I mean I was twelve years old 906 00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:18,839 Speaker 8: when they won in seventy eight when they beat Duke, 907 00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:21,560 Speaker 8: and I was just hooked from that moment on. 908 00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:25,560 Speaker 3: Well, I think most fans are like, yeah, I appreciate 909 00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:27,480 Speaker 3: the car. I think most fans it's hard for us 910 00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:30,000 Speaker 3: to fill out a bracket without picking Kentucky to win. 911 00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:34,040 Speaker 3: I mean, I don't, but I think most fans do that. 912 00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:35,800 Speaker 3: I saw, you know, I saw at one point before 913 00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:39,080 Speaker 3: the tournament started, Kentucky was on the fifth most brackets 914 00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:41,440 Speaker 3: to win. A lot of those are just Kentucky fans 915 00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:44,040 Speaker 3: who cannot pick someone that's not because. 916 00:41:43,840 --> 00:41:45,279 Speaker 4: We get to this weekend, We've got Kara. 917 00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:47,239 Speaker 3: He's one of those Kentucky. 918 00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:50,399 Speaker 4: Versus Tennessee in our bracket. We can't put Tennessee down 919 00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:52,360 Speaker 4: on our bracket. We have to pick Kentucky. 920 00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:56,000 Speaker 5: I usually pick against Kentucky early just for percentage in 921 00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:58,759 Speaker 5: my gambling pool. I'm always in Kentucky group. So I 922 00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:00,440 Speaker 5: try to be different just to try to win it. 923 00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:02,440 Speaker 5: But it's never my feelings are involved in a bracket. 924 00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:06,279 Speaker 3: It's just very hard, Like even if you objectively think 925 00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:11,000 Speaker 3: Tennessee's gonna win, to write Tennessee's name out after Kentucky, 926 00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:13,920 Speaker 3: you just can't do it. It physically hurts. 927 00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:17,360 Speaker 5: My hand won't even make that motion. The brain disconnects 928 00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:18,120 Speaker 5: from the hand right there. 929 00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:20,520 Speaker 3: Trying to just like to lose motor skills on that. 930 00:42:20,719 --> 00:42:22,680 Speaker 3: I understand. I'm be the same way. We'll talk about 931 00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:24,960 Speaker 3: the portal and more when we return KR
