Speaker 5: Just don't call me and say, like, hey, Matt, who's
Speaker 5: gonna start at point guard, because like we can do
Speaker 5: that anytime. Make it kind of a more interesting question
Speaker 5: than that, Drew, Yeah.
Speaker 6: It's always fun when we get a little off script.
Speaker 6: And maybe even tell some alas from the past.
Speaker 5: Yes, and I also have something in the second hour
Speaker 5: where we're gonna play a little draft game, so just
Speaker 5: just be ready for that. But let's start with the
Speaker 5: big news of the day. Travis Perry enters the portal.
Speaker 5: I'll talk about an eleventh hour thing. It happened at
Speaker 5: like what nine to thirty last night, two and a
Speaker 5: half hours before the portal closed. He didn't didn't make
Speaker 5: an announcement. It just got I had a source tell me.
Speaker 5: But they must have had everybody on speed dial because
Speaker 5: everybody put it out. I thought, hey, I have some scoop,
Speaker 5: and then all of a sudden, everybody had it at
Speaker 5: the same time. It must have been a group text.
Speaker 5: But nevertheless, he is in the portal. Not a shock
Speaker 5: to me. I kind of wondered, you know, all these
Speaker 5: other people had put out their graphics that they were
Speaker 5: back and he hadn't, and I was kind of like,
Speaker 5: is it gonna happen?
Speaker 2: You know, there was a.
Speaker 5: There's a person who wrote the text machine who has
Speaker 5: written me about every two days for the last month
Speaker 5: saying Travis was gonna come back, And fifteen minutes before
Speaker 5: I got the text they were like, it's official now.
Speaker 5: I wanted to be like, you've been writing me this
Speaker 5: for two months. I guess what was it official then?
Speaker 5: But he decides to leave, let's just start Ryan before
Speaker 5: we What are your initial thoughts. I mean, this is
Speaker 5: the all time leading scorer in the history of Kentucky
Speaker 5: high school basketball.
Speaker 2: What do you make of the decision?
Speaker 7: You know, I'd heard there were some teams putting the
Speaker 7: full court press on him, but the fact that he
Speaker 7: had not made an announcement, I thought, well, he's probably
Speaker 7: gonna come back. And the fact that it lay waited
Speaker 7: until the eleventh hour, that just kind of tells me
Speaker 7: on the outside of looking in it might have been
Speaker 7: a struggle with him in the family trying to decide
Speaker 7: what to do. Should we look elsewhere or do we
Speaker 7: want to kind of stay in be Kentucky, be at Kentucky.
Speaker 7: I think we owe that kid a lot of gratitude.
Speaker 7: I mean, I'd hate to think where we would have
Speaker 7: been without him after all of our injuries at point guard.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we might have had Brandon Garrison bringing the ball before.
Speaker 6: What do you think true, I think he's got a
Speaker 6: tough decision. I've heard from the moment portal season started
Speaker 6: all the way through Monday that he didn't want to leave.
Speaker 6: He knew his spot. It's not a competition thing, a
Speaker 6: playing time thing. He's very aware of the situation in Kentucky,
Speaker 6: but there are some other places that have made significant
Speaker 6: offers and opportunities that are in front of him, and
Speaker 6: he has to decide, do I want to be a
Speaker 6: Kentucky knowing I'm the thirteenth guy and there's a lot
Speaker 6: in front of me and you know, live that dream,
Speaker 6: or do I want to take maybe even double the
Speaker 6: money and have a significant increase in playing time.
Speaker 5: So that's interesting. I heard the exact opposite, and I'm
Speaker 5: not saying you're wrong. This may just be in the
Speaker 5: portal era you hear different things. I heard the exact opposite.
Speaker 2: I think.
Speaker 5: I think UK actually had kind of thought he was
Speaker 5: coming back and like had sort of the the nil
Speaker 5: agreement with him, but that ultimately it did come down
Speaker 5: to kind of a playing time thing that like, especially
Speaker 5: when they got Aberdeen, there was a sense of, well,
Speaker 5: Aberdeen will probably end up being the backup point guard
Speaker 5: when Lowe is out, and you're now at that point
Speaker 5: kind of third string for your second year. So I'm
Speaker 5: not saying you're wrong. You know, my source could be wrong,
Speaker 5: but I actually heard the exact opposite of that, So
Speaker 5: you know, I'm.
Speaker 6: Pretty confident he's got some strong offers out there. Oh,
Speaker 6: I'm sure there are much more than Kentucky's.
Speaker 2: I don't think that. I don't.
Speaker 5: I don't think the money was why he left. I
Speaker 5: think it, I mean there was. Well I won't go
Speaker 5: into all the details, but I I'm sure he'll get
Speaker 5: other offers. But but that would have been the case
Speaker 5: back two months ago, so a month and a half
Speaker 5: ago or whenever, whenever it ended.
Speaker 2: So either way, I guess it doesn't really matter. He's
Speaker 2: he's gone.
Speaker 5: You know, it was interesting looking at the fan reaction online.
Speaker 5: I think I think the general reaction is, well, I'm
Speaker 5: sorry it didn't work out because we want this Kentucky
Speaker 5: kid to play. But that but that people understand. I mean,
Speaker 5: he was gonna be the thirteenth.
Speaker 2: Man on the roster last next year.
Speaker 5: I mean Trent Noah kind of objectively fit in better
Speaker 5: in some ways last year. I mean, Travis, he's a
Speaker 5: great shooter, but he didn't shoot great last year, right,
Speaker 5: and he and he really struggles on defense, and I
Speaker 5: it's you know, I hate to see him go because
Speaker 5: I love having Kentucky kids play, especially one with this
Speaker 5: historic career he had.
Speaker 2: In high school. But I also think for him it's
Speaker 2: probably the right decision.
Speaker 7: Yeah, you know, he got thrust into a role he
Speaker 7: probably wasn't quite ready for. You know, he just just
Speaker 7: got to college. He's playing a major Division one ball,
Speaker 7: a lot of physical a lot of great point guards
Speaker 7: in his league, and then college.
Speaker 2: Could have been ready for it.
Speaker 5: Do you is there a world you could have seen
Speaker 5: Travis Perry starting point guard for Kentucky.
Speaker 7: Only if it's like on year three or four.
Speaker 2: Okay, but what about on year three or four?
Speaker 7: He's still not the kind of physical type point guard
Speaker 7: that we see even you know, Lamont Butler Sears fears.
Speaker 7: These guys are this dynamite point guards. I don't know
Speaker 7: if he was physically able to do that.
Speaker 2: I'm not sure. Drew there's a worst league for him
Speaker 2: than the SEC. I mean like that, this is the
Speaker 2: worst league you could play in if you're a guy.
Speaker 5: That last year, I think I've said over and over,
Speaker 5: I think we had the least athletic team in the SEC.
Speaker 2: And it showcased itself.
Speaker 5: And I think that's part of the reason Mark Pope
Speaker 5: Witten got so many more athletes.
Speaker 6: And I don't think he would ever be the guy
Speaker 6: at point guard. Maybe get to where he's a solid
Speaker 6: backup playing a lot of minutes, but just defensively, he's
Speaker 6: just he's just not built with the athleticism that would
Speaker 6: take to play significant minutes in the SEC. But uh,
Speaker 6: you know, I wouldn't This isn't scoop or anything. This
Speaker 6: is just me breading tea leaves. I wouldn't rule out
Speaker 6: him sticking around coming back. I see it as he's
Speaker 6: maybe it got to the last minute and just wanted
Speaker 6: to buy himself some time.
Speaker 5: Well we'll see, but I don't think that's happening. I
Speaker 5: mean I think UK. I think UK is going to
Speaker 5: fill that spot. I think they might fill it with
Speaker 5: a developmental type player, like a guy who's the thirteenth
Speaker 5: guy and understands that and it's coming in and to
Speaker 5: maybe be a contributor in the second year or something
Speaker 5: like that.
Speaker 2: I could see them almost even.
Speaker 5: Doing like a reach a little bit and taking a
Speaker 5: guy that's a little bit you know, not necessarily ranked
Speaker 5: in the top because they just.
Speaker 2: Think can make it work.
Speaker 5: Maybe a guy like Tretanoa who wasn't ranked really high
Speaker 5: last year and they still brought in. But you know,
Speaker 5: I'd be very surprised if you hear the portal two
Speaker 5: hours before.
Speaker 2: I kind of think you're probably going.
Speaker 7: And you know, even though they brought in Aberdeen, you know,
Speaker 7: Colin Chandler when he got his chance, kind of leap
Speaker 7: frogged over Travis. Travis didn't play hardly at all in
Speaker 7: their last couple of games. Because Colin got a lot
Speaker 7: of all of his minutes. I'm sure he wants to
Speaker 7: go and play somewhere.
Speaker 5: He's a competitor as a Western Kentuckier Kentuckier Western Kentuckian.
Speaker 2: Are you are you bumped?
Speaker 6: I'm a little bummed, and I was surprised. Like I said,
Speaker 6: I've heard that both sides wanted to make it work.
Speaker 6: My assumption is he got a pretty good offer. So
Speaker 6: if that's the case, I'm happy for him. I know
Speaker 6: a lot of people mentioned like Bellerman, I just don't
Speaker 6: think places like that could afford him. I don't know
Speaker 6: nil At Yeah, I don't know even Western. I don't
Speaker 6: know if they have I don't even know if they
Speaker 6: could afford him. I wouldn't be shocked if he's still
Speaker 6: in the SEC. I know when he got recruit out
Speaker 6: of high school. Oh Miss loved him and Florida loved him.
Speaker 6: It'd be crazy if he went to one of those.
Speaker 6: But I wouldn't rule either one of those out. Joe
Speaker 6: Tipton from on three, he mentioned Cincinnati is an option.
Speaker 6: I think he's still going to be playing at a
Speaker 6: decently high level of basketball.
Speaker 2: Not a lot.
Speaker 5: Cincinna Army would make more sense to me. I just
Speaker 5: I don't see how an old Miss or Florida could
Speaker 5: could have watched those games and said this is and
Speaker 5: again this is not. I'm not being critical of him.
Speaker 5: I think he there is a place for him to
Speaker 5: be a really good college basketball player. I'm just not
Speaker 5: sure it's in the SEC. I think even in the
Speaker 5: Big East there's less less athleticism than there is here
Speaker 5: or the Big Twelve.
Speaker 2: This league is just so athletic that I.
Speaker 5: Just don't know how it works since that he's not
Speaker 5: tall either. That's the other thing is he's sure in
Speaker 5: addition to the to the other.
Speaker 7: Thing, since they would be interested, he'd be Golden be
Speaker 7: Kirk Crease's back up up there.
Speaker 5: Two pair to get that wouldn't be kind of interesting
Speaker 5: to both Kerr and he went to Cincinnati.
Speaker 6: Went to Cincinnati offensively, not just the shooting. I think
Speaker 6: he can be really good running the show. It's just
Speaker 6: the defense. I don't know we'll ever get to what
Speaker 6: it needs to be to, you know, be a guy
Speaker 6: that's playing a ton of minutes at a place like Kentucky.
Speaker 2: So what about the people that are frustrated? Are they?
Speaker 2: You know? I'm confident Mark Pope didn't say I don't
Speaker 2: want you to be here. Mark Pope wanted him to
Speaker 2: be here.
Speaker 5: But there are people who say, you got to find
Speaker 5: a way to keep the Kentucky kid on the team.
Speaker 5: I think that was something Ryan maybe you could have
Speaker 5: said pre and I l but I don't know if
Speaker 5: you can say that now when you're actually talking about money,
Speaker 5: you know what I mean, Like when you're talking about money,
Speaker 5: like at some point you can't just say, well, you
Speaker 5: have to keep them. Because the thing is, when you
Speaker 5: set one cost of a player, you're not just setting
Speaker 5: the one, you're setting the whole roster. That's right, cause
Speaker 5: if you play pay your thirteenth player a ton of
Speaker 5: like the twelfth players will want more, the eleventh players
Speaker 5: don want more, you know what I mean? Like it's
Speaker 5: it has a it has a cascading defect.
Speaker 7: And you know, this is kind of a unique year
Speaker 7: where they've got Jasper Malachi, Trent, They've got three other
Speaker 7: Kentucky kids on the roster. So you know, I I
Speaker 7: gotta admit it, it kind of stung a little bit,
Speaker 7: and I just seem to think I feel bad for
Speaker 7: him and his family if they've waited til the last
Speaker 7: minute to try to do this, they probably really really
Speaker 7: wanted to stay here and just think it's the best
Speaker 7: opportunity that maybe he goes somewhere else and play.
Speaker 2: Favorite Travis Perry moment at Kentucky.
Speaker 7: Uh, how about was it?
Speaker 2: The Uh?
Speaker 7: Didn't Trent Noah throw like a over the shoulder and
Speaker 7: no look between the legs, pass or something to him
Speaker 7: in the corner and he nailed it. That was a
Speaker 7: big bucket. That's probably I don't one of his biggest bucket.
Speaker 2: Who was that against? Was that against Tennessee?
Speaker 6: Not sure the team?
Speaker 7: It wasn't a rough It was on the road somewhere, wasn't.
Speaker 6: It that was a big play. It came in a loss,
Speaker 6: but I thought he did about as good as he
Speaker 6: could at Alabama for most of the game been put
Speaker 6: in a horrible situation. There was even I rememberer. Uh
Speaker 6: you know, he just considered a guy that shoots. He
Speaker 6: cut back door and Amari found him on a give
Speaker 6: and go and he finished a tough lay up. So
Speaker 6: even though that wasn't a loss to be putting that spot,
Speaker 6: played thirty something minutes against an All American.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you remember we started that game up like eleven. Yeah,
Speaker 2: you know, we we.
Speaker 5: Started in at Alabama and they you know, they they
Speaker 5: pulled away, they pulled away, but like we were, we
Speaker 5: started on a roll.
Speaker 2: And that was with him in that game.
Speaker 6: There was a moment where they called Mark Sears barely
Speaker 6: got tapped on a three and they called a foul
Speaker 6: and Travis gets hammered on the other end, doesn't get
Speaker 6: a foul. So he was just in a tough spot.
Speaker 6: But I thought he played well all things considered in
Speaker 6: that situation.
Speaker 7: I mean, like I said earlier, we owly even a
Speaker 7: lot of gratitude. Man, Well, I hate to think where
Speaker 7: we would have been without him. After we lost. You know,
Speaker 7: Labomp Butler, Kirk Crease to Jackson Robinson, our three point
Speaker 7: guards that he had got forced into play as a
Speaker 7: true freshman. That's a tough situation he got put in.
Speaker 2: Which brings me to the second point, which is.
Speaker 5: Well, I'd be careful I say this, Actually, Shitton, let's
Speaker 5: take an early break.
Speaker 2: So I, because I don't want to rush through this,
Speaker 2: all right, let's take an early break.
Speaker 5: I want to talk about there were some reports yesterday
Speaker 5: about Kentucky's nisle roster payment and I let's just say
Speaker 5: I'm in respectful disagreement with what with what was said,
Speaker 5: and we'll talk about when return. This is KSR, welcome back,
Speaker 5: and he is Kentucky Sports Radio. Just a little announcement,
Speaker 5: Shannon told me during the break. I guess on kr
Speaker 5: D in Louisville at ten thirty, they're switching to a
Speaker 5: Louisville Bats game.
Speaker 2: Now, you know, Shannon, that doesn't make me thrilled.
Speaker 3: Right, Well, they got to, you know, have the game
Speaker 3: so they can hand out the pickleball paddles to everybody
Speaker 3: coming in.
Speaker 5: So that's nice, but that's even more reason not to
Speaker 5: do it. But for those of you in Louisville. You
Speaker 5: can switch on listen online on w LAP. But you
Speaker 5: know who do the Bats play today? That it's so
Speaker 5: important that we that that we get preempted from.
Speaker 4: I don't have to look up and see who they play.
Speaker 2: I mean the one hundred and fifty games.
Speaker 4: And this is your Cincinnati Reds farm club.
Speaker 2: You should it's.
Speaker 5: Fine, but it's not the Reds. This is and I
Speaker 5: like the bad future. Okay, you hushed used to it.
Speaker 6: It happened several times while you were gone.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I did.
Speaker 6: Oh, it's happened seven Yeah, Drefaluza got interrupted twice. It
Speaker 6: happened to Ryan last week.
Speaker 2: Great Iowa Cubs.
Speaker 5: Well, of course it's the Iowa Cubs. Who would who
Speaker 5: wouldn't want to listen to that?
Speaker 2: All right?
Speaker 5: So anyway, there was a report yesterday that from from
Speaker 5: from David Sisk. He's a he's a he worked for
Speaker 5: Cats illustrated. I actually met him in Indianapolis, first time
Speaker 5: i'd met him. Uh, I don't really know him, but
Speaker 5: he came out and said that according to people he
Speaker 5: had talked to, UH, Kentucky was spending twenty million dollars
Speaker 5: on their nil for basketball this year and that seemed
Speaker 5: really hot to me. And and he even put how
Speaker 5: much he thought each player was was uh was it was,
Speaker 5: you know, making So let me be clear, this is
Speaker 5: nothing against him. I'm sure if he said that he
Speaker 5: has had someone tell me that. I can say fairly definitively.
Speaker 5: I rarely say definitively definitively, that is not true. It
Speaker 5: is a substantially less number. Now, it's a high number,
Speaker 5: it might be it. It may be the highest number
Speaker 5: in college basketball. It probably is, but it is nowhere
Speaker 5: near that number. So I mean, the idea that we
Speaker 5: were gonna have a twenty million dollar roster, which will
Speaker 5: be ten million dollars more than any other team is
Speaker 5: just is not the case. So I just want to
Speaker 5: be clear about that because I don't want people going
Speaker 5: in the season going, oh, this guy's making this, and
Speaker 5: this guy's making this.
Speaker 2: It's this isn't David's fault.
Speaker 5: But graphics were putting it out there, you know, Jasper
Speaker 5: Johnson's making this and all these people, and I just
Speaker 5: here's what happens with this stuff. The schools are not
Speaker 5: gonna tell people what they're making. I can just tell you,
Speaker 5: and I I've tried to find the information out. They're
Speaker 5: not telling the schools are not gonna tell you I
Speaker 5: spent with X amount of money.
Speaker 2: Let's play a little game, Ryan. Why would the schools
Speaker 2: not want to tell you?
Speaker 7: Well, because it gets out there. Then the other players
Speaker 7: trying to renegotiate their deal exactly.
Speaker 5: Who does have an incentive to tell you they're making
Speaker 5: a lot of money?
Speaker 7: The player the agent speaking.
Speaker 5: The agent wants to say, I got this kid this
Speaker 5: much money. Why so kids will go, oh, I need
Speaker 5: to go with him. He gets them this much money.
Speaker 5: So the agents, who are the only people talking about it,
Speaker 5: they are exploding the figures because they want to raise
Speaker 5: the market. If you find out that, you know, Aberdeen
Speaker 5: is worth two and a half million dollars, then this
Speaker 5: kid over here will go, well, wait a minute, then
Speaker 5: I'm not worth two and a half million dollars, and
Speaker 5: the market for everybody rises.
Speaker 2: So I've said this for three years. I don't believe the.
Speaker 5: Money that anyone says about any of this. I think
Speaker 5: the money is less than everyone says. I still I
Speaker 5: think it's a lot more than it was two years ago.
Speaker 5: But I think it's less than people realize. So you know,
Speaker 5: I just want. I don't want our team next year
Speaker 5: to have this burden of their twenty million dollar roster.
Speaker 2: I just don't think that's true, and I don't think
Speaker 2: it's close.
Speaker 6: To be honest, you also have when a school loses
Speaker 6: on a player, they will tell people that the other
Speaker 6: school overpaid X amount to not make it look like
Speaker 6: you just lost the recruitment straight up head to head.
Speaker 6: So if you miss out on a player, you also
Speaker 6: have an incentive to be like, well, they paid x
Speaker 6: amount to make it sound like you only lost because
Speaker 6: the other school was overpaying. So it's players and the
Speaker 6: losers in their recruitments. I think that inflated.
Speaker 5: That's exactly right, Like that you're that's another person. So
Speaker 5: like if you're Kentucky and you lose out, or if
Speaker 5: you're you know, Florida and you lose out on Aberdeen,
Speaker 5: you want to you don't want to say it's because
Speaker 5: the kid wanted to play for Kentucky more than Florida.
Speaker 5: You go, well, he must have paid two million dollars
Speaker 5: or else they wouldn't have left. So I just don't
Speaker 5: believe any of the money. It's not It's not a
Speaker 5: criticism of anybody who reports it. You know, a lot
Speaker 5: of these national reporters have an incentive. They want to
Speaker 5: get information, and so the agent says, Okay, I'll tell
Speaker 5: you about my next scoop. But say he made this
Speaker 5: much money, right, Yeah, that's what happens.
Speaker 2: You know. Remember we always joke about the Shams guy.
Speaker 5: Yes, and how Shams always says this was negotiated by
Speaker 5: blah blah blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 2: Why is he doing that because he wants scoop.
Speaker 7: Get that name out.
Speaker 2: I want scoop the next time, right.
Speaker 7: And you've been saying from the beginning that the numbers
Speaker 7: out there are overinflated. They're all inflated, and it's you know,
Speaker 7: it leads me to believe that this twenty million dollars
Speaker 7: is overinflated. But yet I still think Kentucky has offered
Speaker 7: a lot of money.
Speaker 5: I still think we will have one of the three
Speaker 5: highest quote unquote payroll. But it's not what what folks say.
Speaker 5: What is happening downtown? There are school children and buses
Speaker 5: and coyotes, and like coyotes, what is in downtown?
Speaker 2: What is going on?
Speaker 6: It takes me fifteen minutes to get it from behind
Speaker 6: is it science and technology.
Speaker 2: That's why all those nerds are running.
Speaker 6: Okay, it takes me fifteen minutes. I'll even nine to
Speaker 6: thirty every day, never have an issue. I texted you
Speaker 6: all just kept sitting through the same light with zero
Speaker 6: cars moving. It was an absolute parking lot. I even
Speaker 6: I got here two seconds before the show. I had
Speaker 6: to pull a couple of Matt Joneses to even be
Speaker 6: here on time. I broke broke a few laws.
Speaker 2: So it's a science and technology what.
Speaker 7: It's like a big convention rough for the students where
Speaker 7: they come in and they all like, do egg drops? Yeah,
Speaker 7: do their science and do their technology.
Speaker 2: Did you all do the egg drop when you were
Speaker 2: in school? No?
Speaker 7: I think we did an egg into a pepsi glass
Speaker 7: pepsi bottle.
Speaker 2: What does that mean?
Speaker 7: Like you put a you peel a boiled egg and
Speaker 7: you put it on top of a pepsi bottle. But
Speaker 7: yet you stick a cigarette or burning paper.
Speaker 5: Paper you had you had a school project that involves cigarettes.
Speaker 7: You know, this is the eighties, you know it was
Speaker 7: going way back. And then they would suck the boiled
Speaker 7: egg through the top of a pepsi bottle.
Speaker 2: What are you talking about?
Speaker 7: The you lit a cigarette, that's why you did it
Speaker 7: at home.
Speaker 2: But you do it at home. They encourage you to
Speaker 2: do that at home.
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, okay. You know they used to have pepsis
Speaker 7: to come in those glass.
Speaker 2: Bottle They still have those in Europe. That's what they use.
Speaker 7: The yes, but go ahead, So you boil an egg,
Speaker 7: peel the skin off of it, the shell, and you
Speaker 7: get ready to put on top of the of the bottle,
Speaker 7: the last bottle. But first you put a piece of
Speaker 7: burning paper down in the bottle and you put that
Speaker 7: hard boiled egg on top of it, and it sucks
Speaker 7: the egg right down to the bottle.
Speaker 2: What's it supposed to teach you? Egg sucking? I don't know.
Speaker 4: You're egg sucking dog?
Speaker 2: Egg sucking. Yeah, that's a good scientific principle.
Speaker 7: That's probably what they're doing down at Reparena.

Speaker 8: Well, there's actually a dart magazine. There's an Okay, And
Speaker 8: how I know this is because my grandmother's next door neighbor.
Speaker 8: She's that's her name is Sue Qualls. I talked to her.
Speaker 8: She said it was fine to tell her name. She
Speaker 8: was a professional dart thrower in back of the nineties
Speaker 8: and number one United States.
Speaker 2: Okay, but first of all, I'm sure Sue was a
Speaker 2: great dark player. Is this Sue that told you that?

Speaker 5: I mean, I don't want to say nerds, but nerds
Speaker 5: one person rights, Matt. It takes a lot of golf
Speaker 5: for you to call kids nerds. You were dancing with
Speaker 5: Janet Reno. There's nothing nerdier than that.
Speaker 2: No, that was hot.
Speaker 7: Well, we've seen the photo. I don't know how the
Speaker 7: right word I would use.
Speaker 5: No, I mean that Janda Reno, she was the attorney general.

Speaker 6: And Alberto were dancing and Alberto electric slotting Pam Bondieu.
Speaker 2: Who was who was Biden's attorney general? Oh, Merrick Garland.

Speaker 5: a beer with Mary.
Speaker 2: Wow. You know I I do things with the attorney generals.
Speaker 7: And you are you have kind of self proclaimed king
Speaker 7: of the nerds. You know, you know, you know, you
Speaker 7: don't hide the factory nerd.
Speaker 2: There's nothing wrong with being wrong with be like, don't
Speaker 2: let you know.
Speaker 5: You can't be made to feel bad Ryan unless you
Speaker 5: participate in it.
Speaker 7: Oh, I read that philosophy.
Speaker 5: You can't be made to feel lesser unless you participate
Speaker 5: in it. You can't feel lesser unless you actively allow
Speaker 5: that to happen.
Speaker 7: Which brings me up. You asking anything Wednesday? Can I
Speaker 7: ask you a question?
Speaker 2: Sure if you want?
Speaker 7: You're not You talked about what you did in after Dam.
Speaker 7: You don't talk about the fellowship and you know one
Speaker 7: time you do a play, did you what did you
Speaker 7: do in your fellowship this time?
Speaker 5: So we did a lot of read that. The topic
Speaker 5: of this was like it was a heavy set of stuff.
Speaker 5: It was actually about like when leadership can turn nasty.
Speaker 5: You know, we were there where the Holocaust is, so
Speaker 5: we sort of spent a lot of time studying like
Speaker 5: how did when Hitler was in charge, Like he didn't
Speaker 5: just start and just start killing the Jews. It was
Speaker 5: a process, like he got people to accept little things
Speaker 5: along the way that at the end almost everybody would
Speaker 5: have said, that's awful, but they slowly desensitized themselves by
Speaker 5: agreeing to stuff along the way, and then all of
Speaker 5: a sudden they were like, well, people are like, wait
Speaker 5: a minute, where's this going. So we were studying how
Speaker 5: that happens, not just in the Holocaust but throughout history.
Speaker 5: And uh, like, we read a book. Okay, this was
Speaker 5: an entry we had. We read a little book. Here
Speaker 5: was the story.
Speaker 2: It was called the Visit.
Speaker 5: And this woman she had been like, this man in
Speaker 5: town had gotten her pregnant and then disappeared. And when
Speaker 5: he disappeared, she became like a billionaire. Okay, and so
Speaker 5: this is an old book, so let's just say now
Speaker 5: she became like, we're twenty billion dollars.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 5: She comes back to the town, the man is living
Speaker 5: in the town, and she says, dear town, I'm worth
Speaker 5: twenty billion dollars.
Speaker 2: Town. I will give you ten billion.
Speaker 5: Dollars five billion for year city to make it the
Speaker 5: nicest city in the world, because it had been like
Speaker 5: run down because coal had gone away. It was actually
Speaker 5: this is in Europe, but it was a cold town.
Speaker 5: And I'll take the other five billion and split it
Speaker 5: amongst the citizens.
Speaker 2: You each will get the five billion, and.
Speaker 5: They're all like, that's awesome, and she goes, but there's
Speaker 5: only one thing you have to do. We have to
Speaker 5: kill that guy.
Speaker 7: Oh my, we.
Speaker 2: Have to kill that guy.
Speaker 5: And he had done something wrong, he had gotten her
Speaker 5: pregnant and left and not supported the kid.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 5: So the book is about the town debates this ten
Speaker 5: billion dollars would change our town, it would change our lives,
Speaker 5: but we gotta kill them.
Speaker 2: Wow. And so that was the that's the play.
Speaker 5: And so then you sort of talk about he wasn't
Speaker 5: innocent and is it okay to make a thousand people's
Speaker 5: lives better and have one person?
Speaker 2: So like, that's what we did. So that's it's nerdy, but.
Speaker 7: I think it's interesting. So is it like an open discussion,
Speaker 7: y'all just take turns discussing it?
Speaker 2: Yes, you take away and everybody gives their opinion.
Speaker 6: And you know, did you want to off the guy?
Speaker 6: Were you in for the blood money?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 5: I mean I'm the person who's like, what is the
Speaker 5: old Benjamin Franklin quote, It's better for one hundred guilty
Speaker 5: people to run free than for one person who is
Speaker 5: innocent to be locked up.
Speaker 2: Similarly, like, he messed up but that doesn't.
Speaker 5: Mean he deserves to die, right, and money is not
Speaker 5: everything you. I know Ryan would say kill the guy.
Speaker 5: I mean, I like for like. For Ryan, it would
Speaker 5: be easy. You give me my share of the five
Speaker 5: billion dollars and I'm good.
Speaker 6: He would have pulled the trigger before the debate started.
Speaker 9: There wasn't even been a debate. Of course, she got
Speaker 9: out of her mouth. So so that's so, no plays
Speaker 9: or anything like that. We had to put on. Then
Speaker 9: we had to put on each segment of the thing.
Speaker 9: We had to put on a little play, and I
Speaker 9: got the final segment. So I hosted a game show
Speaker 9: like American Idol, where they voted on whether or not
Speaker 9: to kill Oh.
Speaker 7: Oh, very good, you were Ryan Seacrest.
Speaker 2: Uh, I guess yeah, I mean I didn't call. I
Speaker 2: called myself Matt Jones. But yes, doing plays.
Speaker 6: So all of us are doing plays. Rhyme.
Speaker 2: Were you gonna do a play?
Speaker 7: You're gonna play this weekend?
Speaker 2: Aren't you? Yeah?
Speaker 6: Been Friday?
Speaker 7: Have you learned your lines yet?
Speaker 6: I went over my first line yesterday.
Speaker 2: What's the play?
Speaker 6: Romeo and Juliet?
Speaker 2: Are you Juliet?
Speaker 6: I'm not, but my first scene I'm hitting on Juliet.
Speaker 6: My first line is, baby, you must be a broom
Speaker 6: because you just swept me off my feet.
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 6: So I was practicing my uh you know, I was
Speaker 6: workshopping different voices.
Speaker 2: Just what's your character?
Speaker 6: I'm Paris in the final scene. I know I'm not prepared.
Speaker 2: Let's just say that.
Speaker 6: Well, good luck is it with the children's It's for charity,
Speaker 6: so I will get prepared. I'm not going to let
Speaker 6: the children down, Okay, but I'm not quite there. Where
Speaker 6: is this if people want to go in an opera house,
Speaker 6: excuse me, les and children's theater across from the opera
Speaker 6: house A good deal?
Speaker 2: All right? Who's up next Wednesday? Jerry? Go ahead?
Speaker 10: Matt, yes, any man? Yeah, I was just wondering. John
Speaker 10: Haughty was on Fine Ball about two or three weeks ago,
Speaker 10: and they had an interesting conversation about stoops and I
Speaker 10: guess Halty is close to John somer All, and he
Speaker 10: was saying that, uh, somemer Aw's the top of the
Speaker 10: list of law schools this year, and he was shocked
Speaker 10: that he didn't take a major job last year and
Speaker 10: that he's probably gonna take one this year, and that
Speaker 10: he felt like that there would be a lot of
Speaker 10: pressure on this Barnhart to make a movie because the
Speaker 10: job that some are all covids is Kentucky and really
Speaker 10: wants to come here. And if there'll be a lo.
Speaker 2: We've had this conversation for two or three years, right
Speaker 2: about some raw. I mean, this is you know the
Speaker 2: I know how Mitch Barnhart works.
Speaker 5: He is going to make the decision about Mark Stoops
Speaker 5: pro or con about Mark Stoops.
Speaker 2: It will not be to get John Somemraw.
Speaker 5: And when you talk and when fine Baum and other
Speaker 5: people talk about boosters, you know, at Auburn and Alabama
Speaker 5: and some of those schools, there's a group of rich
Speaker 5: people who really pressure the school.
Speaker 2: We have one booster.
Speaker 5: That has the kind of impact to do that, and
Speaker 5: everybody knows who it is, and he loves Mark Stoops.
Speaker 5: So I don't I mean, fine Baum can say whatever
Speaker 5: he wants. Fine Baum doesn't know about what happens here.
Speaker 5: So I don't think. I'm not saying Stoops is like safe.
Speaker 5: But it will have nothing to do with John Somemraw.
Speaker 5: Whatever they decide to do one day.
Speaker 10: Well, it's just the points that talkers making. I you know,
Speaker 10: I actually I don't know he was in there there,
Speaker 10: but he was saying that there would be an enormous
Speaker 10: amount of pressure. But from who do something? But from
Speaker 10: who at the end, from fans and boosters.
Speaker 5: There are no boosters that have any ability to do
Speaker 5: anything like that except one, and he loves Mark Stoops.
Speaker 5: As far as fans, yeah, I mean fans. If we
Speaker 5: have another bad year, fans are going to make it awful.
Speaker 5: But let me and I appreciate the call. Let's go
Speaker 5: to when John cali Perry left. Most of the fan
Speaker 5: base when John Caliperi left, wanted him gone, right, true.
Speaker 5: I would say the boosters that matter didn't even particularly
Speaker 5: like Cal.
Speaker 6: Did Mitch let him go? No, they've held hands on TV.
Speaker 5: No, they went on television and he backed and then
Speaker 5: Cal left. Mitch didn't even like Cal. He likes Stoops.
Speaker 5: So I mean, you know, think about how we didn't
Speaker 5: let Cal go, And there were many more reasons to.
Speaker 2: Let Cal go.
Speaker 5: The administration didn't like him, the basketball office at the
Speaker 5: end didn't like him, the fans didn't like him. They
Speaker 5: were getting no denial money, and yet they were gonna
Speaker 5: keep him. Yes, So the idea that there's gonna be
Speaker 5: all this pressure to fire Stoops, I think is incorrect.
Speaker 5: If Stoops leaves at the end of this year, it
Speaker 5: will be because the situation is such he just can't
Speaker 5: do it anymore, which is kind of what happened with Cal.
Speaker 5: But Mitch doesn't fire people based.
Speaker 2: On booster pressure. Would you agree with that? Totally agree
Speaker 2: with that. Yep.
Speaker 7: You know I always felt like Cal stayed maybe a
Speaker 7: year or two too long. I hope we don't get
Speaker 7: to that point with coach Stoops. You know, we've struggled
Speaker 7: the last couple of years, and I hope we don't
Speaker 7: get to that point. When we look back five years now,
Speaker 7: I said, man, he also stayed one or two years
Speaker 7: too long.
Speaker 5: Well, if he's here five years, then he better have
Speaker 5: had some winnings.
Speaker 2: I don't think he could stay that long. This is good.
Speaker 5: You know, before the Reed Shepherd year drew you and
Speaker 5: I said this will be the year that decides Col's future,
Speaker 5: and when they lost to Oakland, as far as it
Speaker 5: was for the fans, it was over.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 5: This is the year for Stoops. It is this is
Speaker 5: the year. He can't have another terrible year.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 5: I don't know what good is good? Could even be
Speaker 5: five and seven and your competitive in every game. But
Speaker 5: he cannot have the year he had last year, or
Speaker 5: the fans will be done. I mean they just will.
Speaker 5: You know, now what Mitch does is different, but the
Speaker 5: fans will be done now.
Speaker 6: Before Col's last year, I sudden July. I don't know
Speaker 6: that this at the end, but I'm gonna be watching
Speaker 6: each game like this is the last ride. And part
Speaker 6: of that was him having DJ. It just kind of
Speaker 6: would have been a great time if that had a
Speaker 6: good year to walk away.
Speaker 2: But I'm kind of.
Speaker 6: Going into next football season not knowing it's the last year,
Speaker 6: but I'm gonna be taking it in like it could
Speaker 6: be the last one.
Speaker 5: But the difference between us and a lot of SEC schools,
Speaker 5: we don't have this cabal of boosters that decide things.
Speaker 5: Our administration doesn't allow that. We do have one booster
Speaker 5: that has a very important voice, but he's not the
Speaker 5: kind of dude that fires people. No, he's not not.
Speaker 5: He's a very loyal guy. So I just don't think
Speaker 5: that will be uh the issue. Hey, bourbon lovers, just
Speaker 5: a reminder that the drawing for the next Ultimate Bourbon
Speaker 5: Collection is No, it's not November.
Speaker 7: Seventh be a long time now May seven.
Speaker 11: Maybe let's just say May seventh, because I can't imagine
Speaker 11: it's November seventh, right, Yeah, well, I'm gonna say it's quicker.
Speaker 2: But you can go to Commonwealth Causes dot org.
Speaker 5: A six bottle package includes blatant single barrel, an eight
Speaker 5: bottle package with the Weller Collection and more. Go to
Speaker 5: Commonwealth Causes dot org. Get your ticket for the Bourbon
Speaker 5: collection and remember it's worked with Club Blue, the Nile
Speaker 5: partner of UK. It's Commonwealth Causes dot org. We'll take
Speaker 5: a break and be right back here on Wednsday at
Speaker 5: ks Bars, Kentucky Sports Radio.
Speaker 2: Welcome back. It is Kentucky Sports Radio.
Speaker 5: If I'm nine two eight oh twenty two eighty seven,
Speaker 5: one person writes Matt, this is ask Anything Wednesday. Yes,
Speaker 5: do you think when Rick Patino retires he could come
Speaker 5: back and have a role at Kentucky in some sort
Speaker 5: of capacity?
Speaker 2: Good question. What do you think not a coach but
Speaker 2: like something in the deministration or.
Speaker 7: Yes, I think it's a I would never have said this,
Speaker 7: maybe even a year and a half ago, but yes,
Speaker 7: I think someday down the road I can see that happening.
Speaker 6: I think we're heading that way as long as Pope
Speaker 6: still run on the show. I mean the fact that
Speaker 6: Rick was at Big Blue Madness immediately when Pope got here,
Speaker 6: tells him he's already trying to get through that.
Speaker 2: Door, might do it.
Speaker 5: It's Saint John's. I mean they they're gonna be preseason
Speaker 5: top ten. I mean, he's the king of New York
Speaker 5: right now, like he's got all this money coming in.
Speaker 5: It might be that he's just like mister Saint John's
Speaker 5: for now.
Speaker 7: I can tell you one place. He's not gonna be
Speaker 7: invited back to Louisville. Louisville, but yeah, you start playing
Speaker 7: each other. Saint John's and.
Speaker 6: Louisville scheduled the game while you were away. Louisville and
Speaker 6: Saint John's. Where might be a home, a home he's
Speaker 6: gonna go to look it up. Yeah, wow, he scheduled
Speaker 6: a game. I think he's gonna move to a horse
Speaker 6: farm outside Lexington, because you got Richard just right up
Speaker 6: the road in Cincinnati. He's got his.
Speaker 7: Job all to play at Louisville.
Speaker 2: I wonder what the reaction will be for him there,
Speaker 2: you know, let me look that up.
Speaker 6: I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 2: It was that interesting.
Speaker 4: It's home and home home.
Speaker 3: Wow, that first game at Madison Square Gardens. Second will
Speaker 3: be played in Louisville.
Speaker 5: So I guess his hope is that by that second
Speaker 5: year people are not as mad at him and so, no.
Speaker 7: That's not going to happen. That'll be their biggest crowd
Speaker 7: of the day, and they'll be there biggest crowd of
Speaker 7: the year. They'll be there just to boo him.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's interesting. I had no idea.
Speaker 5: Who's up next, Amanda, Amanda, go ahead, Amanda.
Speaker 12: Hello, Hi, Hi, this is a perfect time because you
Speaker 12: were hating on pickleball for the bathroom picking you all off.
Speaker 2: Then, yes, I hate pickleball. Yeah.
Speaker 12: I just want to have to ask you, as somebody
Speaker 12: that loves walking and hates traffic and hates pickleball virtual reac,
Speaker 12: what did you think about the sixty five million dollar
Speaker 12: plan for this three story pickleball, tennis and virtual reality
Speaker 12: center in the middle of the Joe Creasan Park not
Speaker 12: far from your house at Sellarman like in the wildlife reserve.
Speaker 2: Yeah. See, I don't really know a lot about it.
Speaker 5: Somebody wrote me about it last night and said I
Speaker 5: should look into it, so I don't want to speak on.
Speaker 2: It without knowing about it.
Speaker 5: But I guess they're putting a pickleball facility in the
Speaker 5: middle of a park. One of the great things about
Speaker 5: Louisville is it's parks, Like they have an amazing.
Speaker 2: Array of parks.
Speaker 5: So my initial reaction is to hate it. But yeah,
Speaker 5: but to be fair, I don't know anything about it,
Speaker 5: so I can't. I don't think it would be right
Speaker 5: for me to take a stance, so I need to
Speaker 5: see it. Well.
Speaker 12: I don't know if it's Hooper Settle, but apparently the
Speaker 12: coach there at Bellerman for Tennis is really wanting this
Speaker 12: to be built to their campus and his dad is
Speaker 12: on the board.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean I don't want to I don't want
Speaker 5: to get if you don't know that, I don't want
Speaker 5: to get into.
Speaker 2: Like so, yeah.
Speaker 5: I appreciate the call, but I but I know that's
Speaker 5: a big controversial thing.
Speaker 2: They're putting this pickleball.
Speaker 5: In general, if you start the sentence with they're putting
Speaker 5: this pickleball, I'm against it. And then if you put
Speaker 5: it in the middle of a park, that kind of
Speaker 5: makes me, you know.
Speaker 6: Would you rather live by a dog park? Or a pickleball.
Speaker 5: I have to hear that stupid sound at my house
Speaker 5: then I personally will go impeach my friend Kraig.
Speaker 2: We don't I don't know. The may or may not
Speaker 2: even have anything to do with it.
Speaker 7: I have no idea that Exton built that indoor pickleball
Speaker 7: facility out there by Cayumet Farm right off New Circle.
Speaker 7: Do people go, I don't know.
Speaker 6: Country boys opening one by me. I'm gonna live the one.
Speaker 6: I mean country boys golf simulators, pickleball and country boy
Speaker 6: tap room. And I already asked for a bedroom in
Speaker 6: there somewhere.
Speaker 2: I like d H, but why is he getting into this?
Speaker 6: Just jump in, Just do it, man like he just
Speaker 6: just do it.
Speaker 2: Come on, d H. Who's up next?
Speaker 4: Let's go to Caleb.
Speaker 2: Caleb, go ahead, Caleb.
Speaker 13: Hey, guys, good morning.
Speaker 2: Hey.
Speaker 13: I just wanted to say they tell you to never
Speaker 13: meet your heroes, but Drew, I met you out front
Speaker 13: of the Tyler Child's concert over the weekend, and uh,
Speaker 13: I was the guy that threw up the heart symbol
Speaker 13: with my hands and you were gracious enough to stick
Speaker 13: your hand out and shake it. But I haven't heard
Speaker 13: the end of it from my wife even inself today.
Speaker 6: That don't be I was running back, but I think
Speaker 6: I had a beer. In the other hand, I didn't
Speaker 6: want to half heart.
Speaker 2: Don't feel embarrassed.
Speaker 13: Look it's good she's embarrassed. And I said, I listened
Speaker 13: to these guys every day for two and a half years,
Speaker 13: and do you feel like family to me? So I
Speaker 13: was just wondering, if it's asking think min today, what's
Speaker 13: the proper thing to do if we meet you guys
Speaker 13: the heart?
Speaker 2: What you want?
Speaker 4: I appreciate the call for a bowl, but it's up
Speaker 4: to you.
Speaker 5: Here's that's a very good question. The key when we
Speaker 5: meet with the key when you meet people, and this
Speaker 5: isn't just about us, This is about anybody you meet
Speaker 5: that you like.
Speaker 2: The key is be kind, be nice. I will.
Speaker 5: I love to have a quick initial conversation, but like
Speaker 5: be quick, especially if there's a lot of people, right,
Speaker 5: if there's a lot of people. Now, if it's just
Speaker 5: you're here in the restaurant, I love to talk to people,
Speaker 5: but like if you're at that concert. Here's a good question.
Speaker 5: Amongst the five of us, let's throw Mario and billion
Speaker 5: who is the nicest to meet? Who's the worst to meet.
Speaker 5: I'll give you the definitive ranking. Mario's the nicest to meet.
Speaker 5: Mario will literally stand with you for an hour.
Speaker 6: He'll take your phone number and call you the next
Speaker 6: day to follow up.
Speaker 5: No, Mario has multiple phone numbers from people he's just
Speaker 5: met here that he just talks to.
Speaker 2: I think Ryan is second. Ryan will be over.
Speaker 6: The top nice, especially if they're young. He does the
Speaker 6: handshake move where he doesn't let go and he just
Speaker 6: keeps shaking her arm.
Speaker 2: Drew is third.
Speaker 5: Drew will uh, you know, Drew's busy, but he'll still
Speaker 5: be like, hey, I'm Drew, good to see you.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 5: I'm fourth because I love to meet everybody, but then
Speaker 5: like I want to get away after a little bit.
Speaker 5: Shannon is fifth because Shannon doesn't like people.
Speaker 4: That's not Drew.
Speaker 3: Ask anybody who's ever met me outside of OVW. They
Speaker 3: would tell you I was very nice to them.
Speaker 5: They would, but you also get the heck away within seconds.
Speaker 5: And then Billy I just sti't think anybody wants to
Speaker 5: meet Billy.
Speaker 2: Now.
