Speaker 5: Well you either you're sitting to super Bowl.

26
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 4: Send us to super Bowl week, but not to the

27
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:20,320
Speaker 4: super Bowl. We have to come home before the super Bowl.

28
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:24,400
Speaker 2: Shit, that's a tease. That's almost like that is at all.

29
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 4: So we'll be at the super Bowl from like.

30
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 3: Tuesday to Saturday, but then they send us home on Saturday.

31
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:33,960
Speaker 5: Just do your shows from the Radio Row Radio.

32
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,600
Speaker 3: We'll do this show from Radio Row and then Cover

33
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:37,920
Speaker 3: Zero from Radio Row.

34
00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:40,440
Speaker 2: But you're not important enough to be there for the

35
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:41,160
Speaker 2: Actually when it.

36
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:44,040
Speaker 4: Comes to the actual super Bowl, get.

37
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:45,559
Speaker 2: Out because you're not covering it anyway.

38
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:47,440
Speaker 4: We can't even stay in the same scene.

39
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 5: That's exactly right.

40
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:53,920
Speaker 4: It we'll be covering zero of the Supertall zero, we

41
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 4: start covering zero of the actual super Bowl.

42
00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 5: So you gotta you gotta work that it. You gotta

43
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 5: figure out how to stay for it game.

44
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 3: Well, I don't think they I mean I don't. I

45
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:04,320
Speaker 3: don't think they can get us into the game. You

46
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 3: would think the NFL. Could you do a show for

47
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 3: the NFL?

48
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 4: I know I don't. I think the game is out.

49
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 3: What I'm trying to do is get them to let

50
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:13,799
Speaker 3: us at least stay because there's a big party Friday

51
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:15,800
Speaker 3: night and a big party Saturday night, and we're invited

52
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,360
Speaker 3: to both of them. They're DraftKings party and I'd like

53
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 3: to be able to go, but they're just gonna sit

54
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 3: his home. I mean, I can't, you know, I don't

55
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:26,679
Speaker 3: know shit. If there's a lot of Wednesday probably the

56
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:29,799
Speaker 3: Super Bowl parties, what night? What day is the day

57
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,240
Speaker 3: they do this stuff on the field the Super Bowl,

58
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:35,160
Speaker 3: like where people dress up as marshmallows. Yeah, I hope

59
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 3: we can at least go to that, but that might

60
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:38,400
Speaker 3: be before we get there.

61
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:42,799
Speaker 2: That might be like Monday, not at the beginning, not

62
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 2: at the end, like right in the middle.

63
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,400
Speaker 4: And it's in San Francisco, so it's not like it's close.

64
00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:49,320
Speaker 5: So you're gonna do all the stuff leading up at

65
00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 5: the super Bowl. But with time for the game, the

66
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 5: big event out get out.

67
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:53,639
Speaker 2: You can be watching the game on your couch going.

68
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:55,919
Speaker 4: I was, they're gonna be back then in our house. Yeah.

69
00:02:56,520 --> 00:03:02,000
Speaker 3: Kentucky plays Arkansas the Saturday before, which we were gonna

70
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 3: go to. But I'm just gonna tell you, I ain't

71
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,800
Speaker 3: going for this bath. I'm not going down there. It'll

72
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 3: already be bad enough for me anyway. Every time we lose,

73
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:12,360
Speaker 3: every single time we lose, they just start posting that

74
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 3: video of me thanking Tyson Farms. And by the way,

75
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:19,120
Speaker 3: I still think Tyson Farms. I'm not taking myself away

76
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 3: from that. Put all the rest of this stuff away.

77
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 3: If Cow is here, it wouldn't work. So I'm not like,

78
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 3: I'm not changing that view. But I do get tired

79
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 3: of every game Arkansas. It's like Arkansas hall face eat up.

80
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 3: So I'm not going down there to take that stuff

81
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 3: in person, especially if I immediately gotta go fly to

82
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,120
Speaker 3: the super Bowl to not see the super Bowl.

83
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 5: I am. I'm glad you're not gonna take us to

84
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:45,120
Speaker 5: watch Arkansas and Kentucky now.

85
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,400
Speaker 3: After I'm not saying that if we come back, if

86
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 3: we're playing well, but it's looking less and less likely

87
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:57,560
Speaker 3: that that's gonna happen. All right, So we lost, and

88
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 3: I'm not thrilled. I said that was the swing game

89
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 3: of the season. I genuinely think it was. We lost

90
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 3: and missing the tournament is right there. Let me just

91
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 3: give you. Let me give you some numbers if you

92
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 3: listen to the postgame show last night. I went over

93
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,480
Speaker 3: all these, but I do do want to talk. Just

94
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,400
Speaker 3: just go through them for a second. Kentucky now has

95
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 3: a in the Mark Pope era, a losing record in

96
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:25,599
Speaker 3: SEC games.

97
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 5: That's not acceptable.

98
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,360
Speaker 4: I mean, that's that's not acceptable.

99
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:34,440
Speaker 3: No, this is not I mean, I you know he

100
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 3: now has a worse record at this point in his

101
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 3: career than Billy Giles.

102
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:38,240
Speaker 5: That's right.

103
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 4: That's also except not acceptable.

104
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 3: He's doing that with a roster where I don't know

105
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:48,040
Speaker 3: if you heard me say this last night, I will

106
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 3: update my numbers from last night. At least six and

107
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:56,960
Speaker 3: I think maybe eight players on this roster make more

108
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:00,200
Speaker 3: money this season than Elie day La Cruz is going

109
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 3: to make this season.

110
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:02,920
Speaker 5: I heard you say that, and I said, that can't

111
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 5: be true.

112
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:04,920
Speaker 2: It's true true.

113
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 4: Six players, maybe eight.

114
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:13,440
Speaker 3: I know six make more than La Daily Cruise, and

115
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:15,280
Speaker 3: it might be eight because I don't know what Jasper

116
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:20,480
Speaker 3: and Malki make, so I mean O way low Acquaintance,

117
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 3: Aberdeen Diabaatee and Cam Williams all make more than La

118
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,080
Speaker 3: Dala Cruise and Jasper Malchi. May I don't really know

119
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:29,839
Speaker 3: what their deals were, so.

120
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 5: That is something. Uh.

121
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 3: And two of our players after the game, one was

122
00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 3: posting his highlights and on Instagram and the other was

123
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 3: selling hats and on Instagram. One was posting his highlights

124
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 3: thirty minutes after the game. The Instagram hats was at

125
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 3: least two hours after the game. The Instagram hat was

126
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,480
Speaker 3: I think at least been taken down. Maybe the highlights

127
00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:01,479
Speaker 3: have two. I'm very frustrated, very frustrated with how he played.

128
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 3: I mean, I guess the one bright spot. Mark Pope

129
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 3: did sound like a human being during the post games.

130
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 3: First time he sounded like himself. He did, honestly, the

131
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 3: first time he sounded like himself this year, which makes

132
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:12,799
Speaker 3: me think they had to have said something to somebody

133
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:14,640
Speaker 3: had to say. Somebody had to have said something because

134
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 3: he did sound like himself. Now his explanations are no better,

135
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:21,720
Speaker 3: No they're not. But you know, it's it's it's it's bad.

136
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,280
Speaker 3: The question is only how bad? And can it be fixed?

137
00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:29,720
Speaker 3: Mark's he talked to basketball, I mean, he said, look,

138
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 3: we are miserable in the half court in terms of pace.

139
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 3: He's right, but you just couldn't lose that game. You

140
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 3: put everything else aside. Put the bad play in the

141
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:43,160
Speaker 3: first half, put bad decisions. They were up eight with

142
00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:45,479
Speaker 3: four minutes and fifteen seconds to go at home.

143
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 5: You gotta win that game.

144
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 3: You gotta win that game. Put it away, and they

145
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 3: made two plays back to back that were bad. They

146
00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:54,760
Speaker 3: came out of the time out. Gates the coach for uh,

147
00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:56,040
Speaker 3: what's his first name?

148
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 4: Did?

149
00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:01,160
Speaker 3: Dennis Gates the coach Missouri eight Mark Pope's love all day.

150
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 3: Every time we got up five, he called time out

151
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:07,240
Speaker 3: and they would score immediately on the next possession. Go look,

152
00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:10,560
Speaker 3: that happened three times in the game. It'd be a five,

153
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 3: well three times five, five and eight point deficit. He

154
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 3: called time out every single time, came out and they

155
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 3: scored the next play every time and got a layup

156
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:23,000
Speaker 3: every time because they ran a play that we weren't

157
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:23,560
Speaker 3: ready for.

158
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 4: Same thing here, So that takes it from eight to six.

159
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:29,000
Speaker 3: Then Jalen Lowe, who I like and think generally played okay,

160
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 3: took a really bad shot where he was at the

161
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 3: top of the floor so he had no balance on defense,

162
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:36,720
Speaker 3: got blocked, came down, layup, and it's eight to four

163
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:40,600
Speaker 3: within like thirty seconds. And then there's like two minutes

164
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 3: where neither team scores, right, it's a four point game.

165
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:47,040
Speaker 3: Four point game of a minute? What twenty three or something?

166
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 3: You give up three two Malachi Mareno turnovers. I love

167
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 3: Malachi Mareno. Think he actually played pretty well last night.

168
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 3: Don't know how you're giving him the ball twice in

169
00:07:58,120 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 3: the last minute and twenty seconds to make a play.

170
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 3: And then Garrison makes a turn up and then Oway

171
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 3: misses a layup. Tom Hart gave me the stat you

172
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 3: know what Oway's layup percentage?

173
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:13,880
Speaker 5: This is, Oh, can't be good, sixty sixty.

174
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 4: Three percent on layups.

175
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 3: Okay on layups, and he missed it a huge one.

176
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 3: On defense, we Malchi Moreno doesn't box out on the

177
00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 3: free throw really bad. I give Colin Chandler a lot

178
00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:31,600
Speaker 3: of credit for that great play at the end, but

179
00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:33,560
Speaker 3: part of me goes, why are you bringing Colin Chandler

180
00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 3: for defense?

181
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:37,560
Speaker 4: That worked? So I can't you know, but why are

182
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 4: you doing that that doesn't seem to make a lot

183
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:40,679
Speaker 4: of sense. I don't know.

184
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:45,559
Speaker 3: And then the last play, you know, Pope explained the

185
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:47,480
Speaker 3: last place said Jaalen Low was supposed to drive the

186
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 3: basket and then kick it to the corner for Cam Williams.

187
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 3: But I was just saying to the gentleman here, we

188
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 3: were down three. If Jalen Low drives the basket, aren't

189
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 3: they just gonna like let him.

190
00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:58,040
Speaker 5: Shoot, let him go?

191
00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:01,680
Speaker 3: Like so, I mean takes that three, But I got

192
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:03,599
Speaker 3: a party. If I'm Jayling and Low, I might have

193
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 3: been like, what am I gonna do with the basket?

194
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:07,559
Speaker 4: You know?

195
00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:12,199
Speaker 3: I it's it was such a terrible performance in the

196
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,959
Speaker 3: last four minute and fifteen seconds, and it's hard not

197
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:19,520
Speaker 3: to feel like this is just a failure because it's

198
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:21,319
Speaker 3: gonna be hard for us to make the tournament.

199
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,000
Speaker 4: We're gonna have to upset.

200
00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 3: Some people and probably get one or two upset wins

201
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 3: on the road to make the tournament. And I've been

202
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:30,040
Speaker 3: talking about how Missippi State it's the worst team in

203
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 3: the conference. They're now two and oh they beat Oklahoma

204
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 3: by twenty last night and we play them Saturday.

205
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:40,559
Speaker 5: I feel broken. I mean like my spirit is broken

206
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 5: because for the second time this week, we're sitting here

207
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 5: talking about a horrible loss, and we're now at the

208
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:49,480
Speaker 5: midway point of the season, at the exact midway point,

209
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,680
Speaker 5: and what what positive things do we have to build

210
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:54,839
Speaker 5: on the things we can upset somebody you're talking about.

211
00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:58,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know. I mean I.

212
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:04,160
Speaker 3: Last year when we lost, I still felt like this

213
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,880
Speaker 3: team can beat teams. Like even when we would lose,

214
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:09,080
Speaker 3: I'd go, well, but you know we didn't hit shots,

215
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:12,000
Speaker 3: Yea or Lamont Butler's hurt right, like there was some

216
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:15,640
Speaker 3: Andrew Carr was hurt at times, Jackson Robinson was hurt

217
00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:19,400
Speaker 3: at times. I don't know what to think about this team.

218
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:21,520
Speaker 3: I was saying on the postgame show. I want you

219
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 3: to take imagin eight. Let's say Jayalen Lowe decided he

220
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,839
Speaker 3: hadn't certainly need to have surgery and couldn't play. Oh my,

221
00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 3: do you think we would win another SEC game?

222
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 1: No?

223
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,199
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm sure we would win one a couple,

224
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:36,400
Speaker 4: but I set the over under.

225
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:40,200
Speaker 5: It like three. That's a good number without him, without him?

226
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:43,840
Speaker 4: I mean, Chandon, how many do you think we'd win

227
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:44,240
Speaker 4: without it?

228
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 2: Not many more than that.

229
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 4: We might not win a lot with him.

230
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, but get everybody healthy and now the excuses are over.

231
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:53,960
Speaker 4: And then you watched the Vandy Alabama game after at

232
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 4: a different game, and it's like, well, these are two

233
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,040
Speaker 4: different teams, and I don't know what Vandy's roster cost,

234
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:00,959
Speaker 4: but it didn't call what ours costs.

235
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 5: So, you know, I just feel like there the offense

236
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:11,320
Speaker 5: is so awful. They have no idea what they're doing

237
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 5: on offense.

238
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 4: In the half court, it's pitiful, it's awful.

239
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:17,080
Speaker 3: When they get in transition, they can get some stuff going,

240
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 3: they can, but like if they don't, they're just stuck.

241
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 5: So, like I said, we're at the halfway point of

242
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,199
Speaker 5: the season and they still don't have any idea what

243
00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:29,000
Speaker 5: they're doing offensively now that they're at full strength and healthy.

244
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 4: So the natural thing people ask is, all right, well

245
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:36,880
Speaker 4: what do we do? I mean, there's nothing we can

246
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:38,520
Speaker 4: do this year. We just are gonna have to play

247
00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 4: out the season.

248
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,720
Speaker 3: It feels like this is a huge indictment on Mark

249
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 3: and obviously part of it is that we don't have

250
00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:47,440
Speaker 3: recruits coming next year.

251
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 5: Right zero?

252
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:48,960
Speaker 4: Right?

253
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:49,199
Speaker 5: Now?

254
00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:55,160
Speaker 4: Are there Do you think there are positive Like, like.

255
00:11:58,040 --> 00:11:59,640
Speaker 3: You know, at the end of the Mark Stoops era,

256
00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:02,559
Speaker 3: no one was kind of on his side, right right?

257
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 3: Do you think there's I mean, I think everybody still

258
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 3: likes Smart. No one doesn't like Mark Pope, right, you

259
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 3: like him as a person, But are you are you

260
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:15,959
Speaker 3: do you have confidence it's gonna this is gonna work.

261
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,880
Speaker 3: I think I got more comments today from national people,

262
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:20,880
Speaker 3: like national reporters going.

263
00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:22,480
Speaker 4: Dude, is this just not gonna work?

264
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:22,679
Speaker 6: There?

265
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:26,199
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that sentiment is growing that he's not

266
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:28,959
Speaker 5: the guy to sit in that chair and do this

267
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 5: job at this place. But we didn't feel that way

268
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:32,920
Speaker 5: last year, not at all, So.

269
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:36,439
Speaker 3: I mean, why this it's I mean, on one hand,

270
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:38,439
Speaker 3: it's only been fifteen games.

271
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 2: You know, last year we had half the season.

272
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:44,079
Speaker 4: I mean no, it is halftime of Saturday night's game

273
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:45,560
Speaker 4: will be the halfways.

274
00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:47,000
Speaker 5: The problem with it. Yeah, So you know, we had

275
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,319
Speaker 5: this ragtag group of guys last year that kind of

276
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 5: overachieved and we fell in love with him. But now

277
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:55,720
Speaker 5: he got some guys who I thought were some dudes.

278
00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 5: I just don't know if he knows how to coach you.

279
00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,880
Speaker 3: But is it possible that we just end up picking

280
00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:05,280
Speaker 3: just paying a lot for another ragtab group of guys,

281
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:06,559
Speaker 3: just a group that couldn't shoot.

282
00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:10,520
Speaker 5: Maybe I just don't know if he's I mean, it.

283
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:15,319
Speaker 3: Is worth noting. And again, you know, I took a

284
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:18,439
Speaker 3: lot of heat in the preseason for this. Take quaintans

285
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:19,960
Speaker 3: out None of these guys are playing in the NBA.

286
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:21,840
Speaker 3: None of Yeah, right, yep.

287
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:23,280
Speaker 4: I mean, I guess.

288
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,679
Speaker 3: Jasper Johnson could, but certainly nobody were putting in the

289
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:27,800
Speaker 3: game is playing in the NBA.

290
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:30,160
Speaker 5: Had Jasper played, I played as much as Jasper did

291
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 5: last night, So.

292
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:35,120
Speaker 4: You know, maybe it is. It kind of is just

293
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,480
Speaker 4: what it is, right. You have no stars. You have

294
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:38,160
Speaker 4: no stars.

295
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,880
Speaker 5: And I think he thought he had the right roster

296
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 5: to compete in the SEC. He tried to, you know,

297
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:48,400
Speaker 5: feel some some parts that struggled last year's team. He

298
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 5: tried to fill the What do you think.

299
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 4: The biggest mistake is?

300
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,280
Speaker 3: Is the biggest Like literally, if we had one dude

301
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:55,439
Speaker 3: who could consistently shoot threes, do you think that'd be

302
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:56,199
Speaker 3: a difference.

303
00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:58,679
Speaker 5: I think that's a huge difference maker. And I think

304
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 5: he thought he had those guys with Chandler Williams and Noah.

305
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:03,720
Speaker 2: We've heard about that practice. You know, these guys making

306
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 2: one hundred three straight. You know all these stories from practice,

307
00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:07,599
Speaker 2: and they can't make anything.

308
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:07,760
Speaker 5: In the game.

309
00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:10,600
Speaker 4: If I had to rank, if I had to say,

310
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 4: why is this team not good?

311
00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 3: And I hate to say it like this because I'm

312
00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:18,559
Speaker 3: not trying to put it on individuals, but you just

313
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:20,480
Speaker 3: have to say what you have to say. Number one,

314
00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 3: he recruited too many big guys at the absence of shooters.

315
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:25,080
Speaker 4: We do not need.

316
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 3: Garrison, Diabate, Moreno a quaintance and Yellovic.

317
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,240
Speaker 4: We do not need five of those guys. Do you agree?

318
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 5: Agreed? There's too many, too many.

319
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 4: You probably should have never gotten Yellovic and should have

320
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:37,960
Speaker 4: gotten a shooter.

321
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:40,880
Speaker 5: Maybe he's supposed to minis shooter though, right.

322
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 3: But he's seven feet tall. We we just didn't need

323
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:45,840
Speaker 3: five seven footers. Yeah, okay, so that's number one. Second,

324
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 3: Aberdeen's not been good.

325
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 5: No, he's not what Albert think.

326
00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:52,280
Speaker 3: I think if you're just if you were gonna pinpoint

327
00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:55,400
Speaker 3: the biggest problem. Aberdeen was supposed to be really good

328
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:56,200
Speaker 3: and he's just not.

329
00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 1: No.

330
00:14:57,360 --> 00:15:04,240
Speaker 3: And then third, I think they hoped Oway, Chandler, Garrison

331
00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:06,920
Speaker 3: and Noah would all take a big leap, and I

332
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:09,400
Speaker 3: don't think any of them did. Any of those four

333
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:10,640
Speaker 3: guys are significantly better.

334
00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:12,600
Speaker 5: No, And that was the thing everybody thought in year two.

335
00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 5: In Pope's system, everybody takes a big jump in years and.

336
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,160
Speaker 4: None of those four did, none really have. So I

337
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:18,400
Speaker 4: think those are the three things.

338
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 3: If you were to sit there and go, what are

339
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:24,440
Speaker 3: the biggest problems, I would say missing a shooter. Aberdeen

340
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 3: is not what we thought he was, and the four

341
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:29,040
Speaker 3: returning guys didn't get better.

342
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:31,600
Speaker 5: I'd say there's a lot of truth there everything he

343
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:32,920
Speaker 5: just said. And I think some of the guys he

344
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 5: brought in or were kind of six men, they weren't

345
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 5: like the guy Aberdeen was kind of a six man.

346
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,560
Speaker 5: Diabode was a six man, Kim Williams was a sixth man,

347
00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:42,600
Speaker 5: was a six man. I don't think he went out

348
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:44,560
Speaker 5: and got a guy a dude.

349
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, five nine, twenty two eighty seven. We're gonna make

350
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:50,120
Speaker 3: this kind of an ask anything Thursday. It can be

351
00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 3: asked anything about basketball or anything else. I just got

352
00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:55,760
Speaker 3: worried that media Day is Monday, so we won't even

353
00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:56,520
Speaker 3: be at that either.

354
00:15:57,840 --> 00:15:59,480
Speaker 5: Well that's one of them. So we really are going

355
00:15:59,560 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 5: to get.

356
00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:00,480
Speaker 4: To cut for zero.

357
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 3: But you know what, that's in the name though, so

358
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 3: they probably that's probably why they're doing it. When can

359
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:12,600
Speaker 3: we send them where the least will happen Tuesday through Thursday?

360
00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 5: Got it.

361
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 4: We'll be right back, but you stay on Saturday.

362
00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 3: Welcome back, in his Kentucky Sports radio A five nine

363
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 3: two twenty two eighty seven.

364
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:28,760
Speaker 4: Uh one person rights, Uh, Matt.

365
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:32,280
Speaker 3: Historically, blue blood programs benefit from giving a coach some

366
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:36,240
Speaker 3: grace and giving them a chance to weather a storm.

367
00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 3: Or do they benefit more from having a short lease

368
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:40,840
Speaker 3: and going and finding excellence.

369
00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,280
Speaker 4: Depends? I mean, I don't know. Depends.

370
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:48,080
Speaker 3: You know, coach k got grace worked out. Other guys

371
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 3: get grace never works out. Matt Doherty didn't work out.

372
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:52,560
Speaker 3: I think they gave him what four years, and it

373
00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 3: didn't work out. So you know, I have had a

374
00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:00,720
Speaker 3: rule for fifteen years that I broke for this one,

375
00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:03,520
Speaker 3: which is, what do you know, Shannon, My rule that

376
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 3: I've had for fifteen years on coaches that I broke

377
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:06,600
Speaker 3: with Mark Pope.

378
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:08,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, bringing in guys that are former players.

379
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,520
Speaker 3: My rule has always been, don't bring in former players

380
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:12,560
Speaker 3: in clouds your judgment.

381
00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:12,960
Speaker 5: Yep.

382
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:15,880
Speaker 3: It's always been my rule because you give them more

383
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:19,520
Speaker 3: benefited doubt because they've played here. And so what I

384
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:23,359
Speaker 3: always ask is would you hire that guy if he

385
00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 3: didn't play here. It's always been my rule. I think

386
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:29,960
Speaker 3: I've said it, and when you don't follow that rule

387
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:31,800
Speaker 3: usually bite.

388
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:35,440
Speaker 4: You look at Joker Phillips. But do you get back Doherty?

389
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:37,439
Speaker 3: I mean you can just go Hubert Davis now out

390
00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:39,240
Speaker 3: North Carolin, I mean you can go through and you

391
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:41,680
Speaker 3: see it now John Shire looks like he might work

392
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:42,080
Speaker 3: for Duke.

393
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:44,840
Speaker 4: So it's not always the case. But that's my rule.

394
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:47,639
Speaker 4: But I broke it with Mark Pope in part because.

395
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:50,080
Speaker 3: Even though when they announced it, I was really upset,

396
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:52,920
Speaker 3: twelve hours later I'd talk myself into it.

397
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:54,200
Speaker 5: We all did, we all did.

398
00:17:56,200 --> 00:18:00,920
Speaker 4: I hope that rule is wrong, but you know it

399
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:04,320
Speaker 4: was a rule, and maybe Ryan I shouldn't have broken it.

400
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:07,320
Speaker 5: I think what is scary for most of us is,

401
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:09,440
Speaker 5: like I said this on Monday, this is not a

402
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:13,119
Speaker 5: one off game. This is something that's happened all season

403
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:15,360
Speaker 5: and I just don't see how it's going to get

404
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 5: any better this year. So if it's not, how can

405
00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 5: you leck Kentucky basketball, the elite of the elite, get

406
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:23,639
Speaker 5: in that situation without making a change.

407
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:26,280
Speaker 3: What person rights Matt would you give if you're a

408
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 3: fan base or an ad would you give a coach

409
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:34,040
Speaker 3: more grace and maybe more time because he played here?

410
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:36,080
Speaker 4: It's a good question.

411
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 2: Now, all of a sudden, you're lowering your standard of

412
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:38,760
Speaker 2: what you're.

413
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 5: Pupling is though you are, yep, you are.

414
00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:44,920
Speaker 4: But do you do that because he played here?

415
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:49,440
Speaker 2: So you know, Shannon says, no, absolutely not your Kentucky basketball.

416
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:51,480
Speaker 2: I mean, you don't lower your standard because.

417
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:53,600
Speaker 3: Of Okay, So then let's let's let's play out the

418
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:57,560
Speaker 3: all right best scenario. Let's just play out scenarios here

419
00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:00,879
Speaker 3: for a second best scenario, we turn it around, we

420
00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:04,719
Speaker 3: make the tournament, go to sweet sixteen.

421
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:05,800
Speaker 4: That's best scenario.

422
00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:08,040
Speaker 5: Then he's fine, right, absolutely fine.

423
00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:13,920
Speaker 3: If play out the tournament, make it, you're a ten seed,

424
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:16,800
Speaker 3: you lose in the first round, probably still are back,

425
00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:17,560
Speaker 3: still are back.

426
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:21,879
Speaker 4: So I think those are not even debatable, right, I

427
00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:26,000
Speaker 4: agreed with you. People will grumble, but he's back, But

428
00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:26,480
Speaker 4: he's back.

429
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:34,560
Speaker 3: What about it collapses, we don't make the tournament and

430
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:39,440
Speaker 3: it's a disaster. I said yesterday, he could lose every game,

431
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,760
Speaker 3: he'd be back. I still think that's more likely than not.

432
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:46,000
Speaker 3: But I you know, I sit. It's a rising tide

433
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,119
Speaker 3: and people can't say I led this one. Just for

434
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,320
Speaker 3: the record, you can blame me for col and you

435
00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:53,600
Speaker 3: can blame me for stoops, neither of which I deserve.

436
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:56,000
Speaker 4: But you know whatever, this one ain't me.

437
00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:00,679
Speaker 5: What do you think if it falls up in your

438
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:04,560
Speaker 5: scenario and they only win three SEC games and don't

439
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:05,240
Speaker 5: make the tournament?

440
00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:06,840
Speaker 4: Say they go three, I.

441
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:10,040
Speaker 3: Mean, because it's not it's not crazy. I don't think

442
00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:11,840
Speaker 3: they will only win three. I think they'll probably win.

443
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:15,320
Speaker 3: I think the worst case scenarios you win like six

444
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,639
Speaker 3: and go like six and twelve, at which point you

445
00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:20,120
Speaker 3: probably don't you don't make the tournament.

446
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:25,879
Speaker 5: What happens then, Yeah, I think you've got to you

447
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:28,040
Speaker 5: gotta look at making a change because you do have

448
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:30,200
Speaker 5: no but you have no recruits signed up, so you're

449
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:32,920
Speaker 5: if your future's not looking that great.

450
00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:35,400
Speaker 4: I just don't There would be people like my mom

451
00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:35,960
Speaker 4: who would be.

452
00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:38,119
Speaker 5: Very upset about it. Yes, because they love him.

453
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:45,359
Speaker 4: He is like every person, like everyone over forty wants

454
00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:46,720
Speaker 4: this to work so much.

455
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, I and still do really like Joker Phillips.

456
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,639
Speaker 3: Okay, but that's not a fair because Joker never had

457
00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,000
Speaker 3: any success. Mark went to Sweet sixteen last year. Yea,

458
00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:58,600
Speaker 3: after Joker's second year, it was you had to say goodbye,

459
00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 3: but he had had no success. I don't think you

460
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:03,520
Speaker 3: can say Mark's had no success. I think last year

461
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:04,600
Speaker 3: was successful, So.

462
00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:07,000
Speaker 5: You think last year buys him another year. Well, I

463
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 5: don't know what.

464
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:08,240
Speaker 4: I think.

465
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:12,320
Speaker 2: You're all of us right now. Nobody knows what you think.

466
00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:12,639
Speaker 5: I don't know.

467
00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:15,440
Speaker 3: I never it never occurred to me we would be

468
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:17,560
Speaker 3: this bad. It occurred to me that we might not

469
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:20,320
Speaker 3: be great. It never occurred to me we would be

470
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:22,680
Speaker 3: this bad. I did not think there was any way

471
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:26,000
Speaker 3: you could have this many players that on paper were good, yeah,

472
00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:27,240
Speaker 3: and be this bad.

473
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:30,720
Speaker 4: Because it's not just that we're nine and six, although

474
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 4: that's bad, it's that.

475
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:36,639
Speaker 3: We have gotten destroyed against good teams and we just

476
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:39,280
Speaker 3: lost to Missouri home. This is the worst home loss

477
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:42,600
Speaker 3: just I just want to be clear. Besides the COVID year.

478
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,240
Speaker 3: I'm just gonna throw the COVID year out. Besides the

479
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:47,920
Speaker 3: COVID year, I think this is the worst loss besides

480
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:50,040
Speaker 3: that game's cow lost to South Carolina.

481
00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:52,919
Speaker 4: You remember that. Yeah, this is the worst home loss

482
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:57,040
Speaker 4: at least since Billy.

483
00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:00,720
Speaker 3: Besides the I think the South Carolina loss was worse,

484
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:02,760
Speaker 3: and a couple of those COVID losses were worse.

485
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:04,120
Speaker 5: But even in the COVID.

486
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 3: Losses, the arena wasn't full, So like besides the South

487
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:08,600
Speaker 3: Carolina game.

488
00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:10,760
Speaker 4: I think this is maybe the worst loss.

489
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:13,359
Speaker 5: They've had Kentucky was a twelve and a half point favorite,

490
00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:14,800
Speaker 5: I think a tip off at home.

491
00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:17,480
Speaker 4: But it also the game was the swing game.

492
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:19,720
Speaker 5: Had to have it, had to wait to have it,

493
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:22,320
Speaker 5: had to win it. When you're up, like you said,

494
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:24,320
Speaker 5: eight points with four and a half minutes to go

495
00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:27,920
Speaker 5: at home against a team you're better than close out

496
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:28,960
Speaker 5: the game. Do you agree?

497
00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:29,560
Speaker 4: Worse?

498
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:31,760
Speaker 3: Besides? I mean South Carolina game was worse. They finished

499
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:34,360
Speaker 3: like one in fifteen that year or two and fourteen

500
00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:34,840
Speaker 3: or whatever.

501
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:38,359
Speaker 5: I mean they did lose to Evansville? Was that when?

502
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:38,600
Speaker 7: Was that?

503
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:42,240
Speaker 5: As that the COVID year with COVID year awful?

504
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:46,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, or maybe that wasn't the COVID year. I don't remember.

505
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:47,119
Speaker 4: That was a bad one too.

506
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:47,719
Speaker 5: It was a bad one.

00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:30,320
Speaker 5: One of the highlights of the game. And outside of that,

545
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:32,480
Speaker 5: Coach Pope dropped an F bomb I think on camera,

546
00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:32,760
Speaker 5: and then.

547
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:35,120
Speaker 3: So he did cause I didn't see the F bomb.

548
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:38,000
Speaker 3: I saw the s bah yeah or bs bo right,

549
00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:39,080
Speaker 3: same scenario.

550
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 5: He was on the baseline and he's dropped the F

551
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:43,080
Speaker 5: bomb and then when the camera's on his face, he

552
00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:44,080
Speaker 5: said the poopy word.

553
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:47,440
Speaker 4: Do you like the name for when he does that

554
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:48,520
Speaker 4: as Dark Pope?

555
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:49,639
Speaker 5: Yes, love it.

556
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:53,840
Speaker 4: I think that's good because it's Mark Dark.

557
00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:56,000
Speaker 5: What we need more of that? I can say that

558
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:56,440
Speaker 5: we need.

559
00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,000
Speaker 2: Ever seen him fired up in two years on the side.

560
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:03,360
Speaker 4: And then you Ryan made Freezing Cold takes last night?

561
00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:04,600
Speaker 4: Did you know that?

562
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:05,560
Speaker 5: No? I didn't know that.

563
00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:09,240
Speaker 3: There's a Twitter account called Freezing Cold Takes and it

564
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:12,639
Speaker 3: retweets when people predict really bad things. I've been on

565
00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:15,879
Speaker 3: there multiple times. My Arkansas thing's been on there at

566
00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:20,480
Speaker 3: least three thouss. You made it last night, you made

567
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:23,439
Speaker 3: Freezing cold takes with your I think that Otega Oways

568
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:24,800
Speaker 3: shot has changed the season.

569
00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:28,840
Speaker 5: Well, I got hacked at halftime after he hit that shot.

570
00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:30,320
Speaker 5: Somebody hacked my account.

571
00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:32,439
Speaker 4: But are you excited? I think that's the first time

572
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:34,040
Speaker 4: you've ever made freezing cold takes.

573
00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:35,880
Speaker 5: I don't put it on my resume now that I've

574
00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:36,960
Speaker 5: made freezing cold takes.

575
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:39,760
Speaker 3: And then Tyler Thompson made freezing cold takes last night too.

576
00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:41,679
Speaker 4: What was hers? When it wasn't her?

577
00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:44,360
Speaker 3: It was when she retweeted or when she tweeted out

578
00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:46,159
Speaker 3: that Mark Pope said he was sitting on a ferrari,

579
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:48,879
Speaker 3: so that really wasn't her take, he was.

580
00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:51,920
Speaker 4: She was just saying what he had said.

581
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:56,119
Speaker 5: I really I had it feeling that that shot was

582
00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:58,280
Speaker 5: gonna not just turn the game around, turn the season

583
00:25:58,320 --> 00:25:59,679
Speaker 5: around for us. I believed in them.

584
00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:04,920
Speaker 4: I was thinking, is that the like, that's gotta be

585
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:06,840
Speaker 4: one of the longest shots in UK history?

586
00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:09,399
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Tom Leach about that, he said what he

587
00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:11,120
Speaker 2: said there was one that was longer. I can't remember

588
00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:12,040
Speaker 2: who he said that made that?

589
00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:16,320
Speaker 3: Well, isn't there's a legendary shot at Memorial Colisseum where

590
00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 3: it was it Frank Hatton shot from the other vern Hatton, and.

591
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:22,639
Speaker 5: They had a little steak in the floor. Where and

592
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:25,800
Speaker 5: when that was that farther than always if I remember

593
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:28,040
Speaker 5: seeing where the steak was, it was definitely farther. That

594
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,200
Speaker 5: was at Memorial Colosseum. So this may be the longest

595
00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:31,280
Speaker 5: shot ever at rup.

596
00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,600
Speaker 3: Okay, but for a UK game, you know you think

597
00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:38,160
Speaker 3: that was closer than vern Hatton. Yes, yeah, I believe

598
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:40,400
Speaker 3: it was, but it might be the second longest.

599
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:42,040
Speaker 5: Maybe, Yeah, I.

600
00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:44,480
Speaker 4: Don't remember one longer, do you know?

601
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,560
Speaker 5: Not that long? We've had half court shots quickly hit one,

602
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:50,840
Speaker 5: Keldon Johnson hit one, but not that was three quarter

603
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:52,879
Speaker 5: cord and I just knew it, man, I felt that

604
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:54,800
Speaker 5: my bones thinks we're gonna turn around right there.

605
00:26:54,920 --> 00:27:00,880
Speaker 4: And that was a freezing cold take hacked. Who's up next?

606
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:03,560
Speaker 4: Let's start with Mike, Mike, go ahead, Mike.

607
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:10,240
Speaker 8: Hay out. So, uh, I guess I'll start off with football. Listen.

608
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:13,480
Speaker 8: I'm not trying to be overly pessimistic here, but I

609
00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:16,000
Speaker 8: feel like we kind of settled for the qv that

610
00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:20,720
Speaker 8: we got. I think Sam Levitt could be really really specials.

611
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:24,000
Speaker 8: He hasn't committed anywhere, and that's fine, but well, but.

612
00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:26,320
Speaker 3: But what if I mean, let's be real, Okay, on

613
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 3: talking about that for a second. Sam Levitt had the

614
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:32,480
Speaker 3: option to go to LSU. May still he hasn't. Uh,

615
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:36,680
Speaker 3: he's at Tennessee this week. You know, he went to

616
00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:38,400
Speaker 3: Texas or he was going to go to Texas Tech.

617
00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:41,760
Speaker 3: They ended up getting another guy. If you're if you're

618
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:44,320
Speaker 3: if you're will Stein, I will agree with you. Sam

619
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 3: Levitt would have been a safer choice. But if you're

620
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:50,800
Speaker 3: if you're will Stein and his brothers, sam Levitt's brothers say,

621
00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:53,520
Speaker 3: we're not going to decide till this weekend, and we're

622
00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:56,760
Speaker 3: going to visit LSU and we're going to visit Tennessee.

623
00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:01,400
Speaker 3: If you're will Stein, ls you and Tennessee are both

624
00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:06,359
Speaker 3: better programs with with coaches who've had more success with quarterbacks,

625
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:07,520
Speaker 3: at least in the short term.

626
00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:14,680
Speaker 4: I mean, you can't wait because chances are when it like,

627
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:15,680
Speaker 4: what are you supposed to do?

628
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:17,600
Speaker 5: Why?

629
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:21,400
Speaker 8: I guess my biggest fear is that he gives to Tennessee.

630
00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:24,240
Speaker 3: And just if he does, he does, but like, we

631
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 3: can't hold him hostage and make him come here. If

632
00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:29,600
Speaker 3: he chooses to go to Tennessee, he chooses to go,

633
00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:32,159
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't think you you know, if I

634
00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:37,800
Speaker 3: want if there, if I'm choosing between marrying Giselle and Gertrude,

635
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:42,200
Speaker 3: it might be settling to take Gertrude, but I can't

636
00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:44,000
Speaker 3: make Gizelle marry me.

637
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:49,960
Speaker 8: Okay, So I think Roman said I'm lost. I think

638
00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:50,480
Speaker 8: it's worse.

639
00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:54,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, No, I think it probably was. Yeah, I appreciate you, man,

640
00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:56,800
Speaker 4: go ahead, go ahead.

641
00:28:56,640 --> 00:29:01,160
Speaker 8: Right, one last thing, continue true with stat stare in

642
00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:03,160
Speaker 8: tls and you got to clean up some of those

643
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 8: Instagram likes, Matt. I've seen some of those reels you'd

644
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:07,200
Speaker 8: be like, and they're a little salacious.

645
00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:12,479
Speaker 4: I appreciate the call. I don't think I clean up

646
00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:13,360
Speaker 4: the lts.

647
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:15,680
Speaker 5: I don't know what that means.

648
00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 4: Well, but back to what I'm saying about the uh uh,

649
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:23,960
Speaker 4: the the you know, the quarterback.

650
00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:30,640
Speaker 3: I understand if you had gotten Levitt the number one quarterback,

651
00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:32,120
Speaker 3: you want that.

652
00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:35,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, but if you can't get it, you can't get it.

653
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:38,400
Speaker 5: What's the saying a bird in the hands, buried two

654
00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:40,320
Speaker 5: in the bush. Yeah, that's what you got it, right?

655
00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:43,080
Speaker 4: Thank you, good job, you got a same.

656
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:44,840
Speaker 5: Right just left in a holiday express lessay.

657
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:46,480
Speaker 4: I wish you would stop saying, but go ahead.

658
00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:50,040
Speaker 5: So if if Levitt is like flirting with other girls,

659
00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:53,080
Speaker 5: you got another girl coming your way, I'm gonna go

660
00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,480
Speaker 5: for the other girl. I'm not gonna wait around and

661
00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:58,120
Speaker 5: wait for the hot girl. I'm gonna get the next

662
00:29:58,200 --> 00:29:59,080
Speaker 5: girl coming my way.

663
00:29:59,200 --> 00:29:59,920
Speaker 2: Think for yourself.

664
00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:03,720
Speaker 4: I feel like mine was better. My analogy it also

665
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:05,920
Speaker 4: was the same. That was the exact same.

666
00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:07,959
Speaker 2: One's gonna take the first thing that comes out of them.

667
00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 2: He's not gonna worry about the hot girl.

668
00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:10,800
Speaker 5: I'm gonna disagree with what you're saying.

669
00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 4: You can't take it. But but I mean, we still

670
00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:14,120
Speaker 4: got a top ten quarterback.

671
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:17,480
Speaker 5: He's ranked tenth, right, I mean, like, when's the last

672
00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:18,840
Speaker 5: time we had a top ten quarterback.

673
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:22,000
Speaker 3: That's why I think I said this the day he committed.

674
00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:27,160
Speaker 3: People act like tenth is awful. We are never a

675
00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:30,960
Speaker 3: tenth in football, No, especially now for a quarterback. If

676
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:33,960
Speaker 3: we were to come in tenth in football, first of all,

677
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:39,600
Speaker 3: we'd make the playoff. Everyone around here would lose their mind. Yes,

678
00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:42,640
Speaker 3: and then people in the Hall of Shadle for the

679
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:48,160
Speaker 3: tenth one. This Kentucky football, we've never been that good. No,

680
00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:53,280
Speaker 3: how many times in history, in history have we had

681
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:57,880
Speaker 3: how many seasons one of the ten best quarterbacks in history.

682
00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:01,720
Speaker 4: Let's just we'll go with my life, Tim cow Yes,

683
00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:06,200
Speaker 4: maybe maybe Jared and Andre.

684
00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:06,960
Speaker 5: That's it.

685
00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:11,000
Speaker 3: That's it, baby, Will Levis. I don't think he was

686
00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:13,080
Speaker 3: top ten, was he? Well, he got picked in the draft.

687
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:15,400
Speaker 3: I'd say he probably was like eight to ten. Okay,

688
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:20,920
Speaker 3: so four seasons in our lifetime, that's the list. And

689
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:24,160
Speaker 3: I'm not sure Jared and Andre would necessarily have made it.

690
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:25,440
Speaker 3: They would have been close.

691
00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:28,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's pretty good.

692
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:28,920
Speaker 6: Now.

693
00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 3: I'm not saying this kid's gonna be the one of

694
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 3: the ten beds. I'm just saying the fact that he's

695
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:34,120
Speaker 3: ranked there means it was worth a shot.

696
00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:36,680
Speaker 5: A dude that almost was the starting quarterback in order Dame,

697
00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:39,040
Speaker 5: I think he can work out here. I think we'll

698
00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:40,720
Speaker 5: take him. Yes, Yeah, who's next.

699
00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:41,920
Speaker 2: Let's go to David.

700
00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:42,640
Speaker 4: David?

701
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:48,280
Speaker 6: Go ahead, David, first time, long time? Who are all right?

702
00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:53,200
Speaker 7: Mark Pope is obviously a former player of Beatinos, and

703
00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:56,760
Speaker 7: Batino's teams are always named early on, and of course

704
00:31:56,800 --> 00:32:00,880
Speaker 7: he had the unforgettables. I think he had unbeatables, the untouchables.

705
00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:06,480
Speaker 7: This team, especially without low playing, are the unwatchables.

706
00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:09,040
Speaker 3: They're hard to watch. I think they're hard to I

707
00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:12,120
Speaker 3: think they're hard to watch with low. I think they

708
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:16,360
Speaker 3: they are a hard, hard, hard team to watch. It's

709
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:19,440
Speaker 3: you got, you gotta love it, You got you know

710
00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 3: you gotta love it to watch you do.

711
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:23,760
Speaker 5: Pucking your eyes It was scissors. Man. They're extremely hard

712
00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:26,520
Speaker 5: to watch. There's no offensive execution whatsoever.

713
00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:27,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, I appreciate the call.

714
00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:31,920
Speaker 3: All right, So tomorrow, tomorrow we are at Cornbread Hemp. Yes,

715
00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:33,680
Speaker 3: I'd love to see all the folks out at Lesville.

716
00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:37,120
Speaker 3: Don't let the fact that our team isn't good not

717
00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:39,000
Speaker 3: allow us to have fun, have a good time, because

718
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:39,960
Speaker 3: we're gonna get things away.

719
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:43,080
Speaker 5: We're gonna dance, dance.

Speaker 5: There we go.

726
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:52,920

00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:58,320
Speaker 4: sell the Seltzers in store, and apparently you can like

728
00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:03,920

00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:08,920
Speaker 3: not gonna sound like one, but it is a compliment.

773
00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:11,080
Speaker 4: I was interviewed. They're doing a profile of me. For

774
00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:13,000

779
00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:22,880

Speaker 4: But they asked me.

782
00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:26,959
Speaker 3: They said, how do you decide when you're talking about

783
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:29,319
Speaker 3: current events, like how to talk about it? And I said,

785
00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:37,800
Speaker 5: I'm not offended. I think that's a compliment.

786
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:41,040
Speaker 4: I thought it was a compliment too. I'm glad you're taking.

787
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:43,319
Speaker 2: It somebody who's so out of touch.

788
00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:45,920
Speaker 4: I didn't say all that, that's Shannon say.

789
00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:50,040
Speaker 3: I said, I just try to explain it as if

790
00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:51,719
Speaker 3: I'm talking to Ryan, because I feel like if I can.

791
00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:55,680
Speaker 4: Make you understand, huh, then everyone can understand. Yeah, that's

792
00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:56,200
Speaker 4: a compliment.

793
00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:58,640
Speaker 5: I think that I represent the common man, So I'm

794
00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:02,399
Speaker 5: not offended at all. I think you do too. Yeah, yes,

795
00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:03,200
Speaker 5: I think you do too.

796
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:08,799
Speaker 3: The Reds have opted out of their TV deal, which

797
00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:12,800
Speaker 3: means we don't know what it means. They don't know

798
00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:14,759
Speaker 3: where the Reds games are gonna be on TV. This year,

799
00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:18,440
Speaker 3: might be over a free channel this year, or it

800
00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:22,040
Speaker 3: might be on the MLB app, so like you could

801
00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:25,520
Speaker 3: could get it as like part of if you live

802
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:26,960
Speaker 3: in the area, you might be able to get it

803
00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:28,640
Speaker 3: for free. To the point being, a lot of people

804
00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:30,320
Speaker 3: haven't gotten to see the Reds games because if you

805
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:32,640
Speaker 3: had YouTube TV you couldn't get it and all that.

806
00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:35,439
Speaker 3: You might now be able to get it because they've

807
00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:37,399
Speaker 3: opted out of their Fandual TV app.

808
00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:38,719
Speaker 2: Well, let me tell you a little problem about the

809
00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:41,040
Speaker 2: MLV app because I've had it. What they won't give

810
00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:43,560
Speaker 2: you the Reds games here. They black them out, that's true, But.

811
00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:45,440
Speaker 3: They won't do it this year because they don't have

812
00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:48,239
Speaker 3: any other partner, you see what I'm saying. So, like

813
00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:50,520
Speaker 3: that's how it's been because they've wanted you to buy

814
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:55,200
Speaker 3: FanDuel TV. But apparently this year, until they find another partner,

815
00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:57,319
Speaker 3: they might give the games free on the app. They've

816
00:36:57,360 --> 00:36:59,840
Speaker 3: already done that for like five other teams around the country.

817
00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:03,520
Speaker 3: But you would have to live in Cincinnati or Lexington,

818
00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:05,879
Speaker 3: you see what I'm saying. Yeah, you have to live

819
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:08,720
Speaker 3: in the Reds TV demo. If you lived in Nashville,

820
00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:09,680
Speaker 3: you would have to pay for it.

821
00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:12,480
Speaker 5: I see, Well that's a big That is something big

822
00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:13,719
Speaker 5: because you know you've not been able to watch the

823
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:17,040
Speaker 5: Reds games, because but I have. But I bought, you

824
00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:17,800
Speaker 5: bought the package.

825
00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:19,880
Speaker 4: But if you didn't buy, you couldn't watch it.

826
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:21,560
Speaker 5: Did you know your season ticket? I did?

827
00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:22,799
Speaker 4: Uh.

828
00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:25,720
Speaker 3: Thankfully they raised the price, which is good, Thank you Reds.

829
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:30,080
Speaker 3: They also decided I thought this was a little sneaky.

830
00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:32,040
Speaker 3: I sit on the aisle.

831
00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:32,560
Speaker 5: Yeah.

832
00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:36,600
Speaker 3: Now, aisle seats are quote unquote premium and they cost

833
00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:37,200
Speaker 3: a little more.

834
00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:37,919
Speaker 5: Come on, damn.

835
00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:43,640
Speaker 3: I like the isle, but they weren't premium before. But

836
00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:46,160
Speaker 3: I don't want to I don't want to crawl over people.

837
00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:49,400
Speaker 3: But I thought that was a little I'm for all this,

838
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:54,280
Speaker 3: But you better resign Ellie. How can they not because

839
00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:55,520
Speaker 3: he's gonna cost a lot of money.

840
00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:56,200
Speaker 4: They have to.

841
00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:58,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, they have to resign that guy.

842
00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:00,600
Speaker 4: Yeah. I think we can be good this year. But

843
00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:02,480
Speaker 4: they still haven't found the other bat. They still need

844
00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:03,520
Speaker 4: one more bath who's.

845
00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:05,280
Speaker 2: By the way, real quick? The longest shot at Ropperena,

846
00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:08,520
Speaker 2: According to Tom Leech's Bowl Lanter, do you know that name?

847
00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:11,160
Speaker 4: Todd Lancer's dad has the longest shot at you.

848
00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:13,440
Speaker 2: You didn't say how many feet from the basket.

849
00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:16,840
Speaker 4: It was bowl lantern has the highest shot, longest shot.

850
00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:20,120
Speaker 5: Yep. Wow, few people would come up with that name. Wow.

851
00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:25,240
Speaker 4: Wonder if anyone remembers that. I don't know, bowl Lantern

852
00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:26,439
Speaker 4: with the longest shot.

853
00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 2: Ye, Scoop is up next?

854
00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:29,520
Speaker 4: All right, Scoop, go ahead?

855
00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:35,399
Speaker 6: Yeah guys, I guess Uh. The biggest frustration I've got

856
00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:39,960
Speaker 6: is is the fact that you've been with these guys

857
00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:44,160
Speaker 6: for seven months and as a coach, you can't get

858
00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:45,480
Speaker 6: them to buy into your system.

859
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:46,080
Speaker 8: Yeah.

860
00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:50,120
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, first of all, let's go back and

861
00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:53,040
Speaker 6: take a look at what we did against Purdue in

862
00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:58,560
Speaker 6: the preseason. Yep, I mean where is that team? I mean,

863
00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:02,600
Speaker 6: you could sit there and fingers and the about. They

864
00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:04,960
Speaker 6: can stand over there. I saw a clip last night

865
00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:07,480
Speaker 6: where coach was getting in his face and he's spouting

866
00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:09,200
Speaker 6: back and then that. I mean, that's what we get

867
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:12,040
Speaker 6: when it's come down to nothing but money for these

868
00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:12,880
Speaker 6: kids today.

869
00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:16,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I gotta stop, I gotta, I gotta stop you

870
00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:17,959
Speaker 3: on that it's coming from money.

871
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:20,000
Speaker 4: How do you explain these other teams that are making

872
00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:20,799
Speaker 4: money being good?

873
00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:23,360
Speaker 6: Well, that's what I want to say. We got a

874
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:27,600
Speaker 6: coach that for some reason, I don't know what his

875
00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:28,759
Speaker 6: offensive system is.

876
00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:31,520
Speaker 3: I saw a clip to Okay, I agreed with you

877
00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:32,960
Speaker 3: with the first point, but let me go back to

878
00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:35,080
Speaker 3: your second point, because this is a very common theme.

879
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:38,680
Speaker 3: People keep saying, well, none of these kids care, it's

880
00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:39,520
Speaker 3: all about money.

881
00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:42,680
Speaker 4: What about these other schools like that?

882
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:46,839
Speaker 3: Thatation does not work if these other schools are playing well,

883
00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:49,560
Speaker 3: if you go look at the team that spent the

884
00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:54,960
Speaker 3: most money on their recruits this year, they're good, Michigan,

885
00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:58,440
Speaker 3: Texas Tech, Duke Yukon.

886
00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:00,279
Speaker 4: Those teams are good.

887
00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:01,279
Speaker 5: We're not.

888
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:04,200
Speaker 4: It's not the money, it's us.

889
00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:08,440
Speaker 6: Yeah, and it starts at the head of the of

890
00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:13,640
Speaker 6: the coach I do. Just what I don't like is

891
00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:18,200
Speaker 6: the fact that we have teams like Missouri and Vanderbilt

892
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:21,480
Speaker 6: and Georgia and all these teams that are in our

893
00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:26,040
Speaker 6: conference that are have guys that aren't four stars, five stars,

894
00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:29,080
Speaker 6: whatever you want to call it, and somehow their coaches

895
00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:30,560
Speaker 6: are getting their kids to buy in.

896
00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:34,239
Speaker 4: And you, well, you took this job.

897
00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:38,319
Speaker 6: When you took this job, Mark, you told the fan base,

898
00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:41,600
Speaker 6: I know what it means to wear this jersey, and

899
00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:45,680
Speaker 6: it's about hanging banners. Yeah, well, right now, I don't

900
00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:48,200
Speaker 6: know if you're cut out for it because you're not

901
00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:52,600
Speaker 6: getting these guys to understand what Kentucky basketball is.

902
00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:54,000
Speaker 4: Well, I appreciate the call.

903
00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:58,000
Speaker 3: I agree with all of that, except the default explanation

904
00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:04,120
Speaker 3: of well, they're getting money, okay, but so was everybody

905
00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:07,720
Speaker 3: else and they're beating us. So, I mean, the money

906
00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:10,960
Speaker 3: is not The money only works as an explanation if

907
00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:13,560
Speaker 3: you pick guys who can't handle the money, and then

908
00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:17,000
Speaker 3: that's on you, right. I mean, I will say we

909
00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:19,520
Speaker 3: had a player go online and sell hats after the game.

910
00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:23,600
Speaker 3: That's a bad look, really bad look after a loss

911
00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:26,480
Speaker 3: like that. But that's on your coach and your program.

912
00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:28,920
Speaker 3: And I would say, you know, I mean, you don't

913
00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:30,080
Speaker 3: have to search hard to find.

914
00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:30,320
Speaker 4: Who it was.

915
00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:33,399
Speaker 3: It's probably not who people think it was. Yeah, right,

916
00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:36,319
Speaker 3: it's probably not who you thought it was that did it. Now,

917
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:38,839
Speaker 3: they took it down, but the fact that they thought

918
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:42,239
Speaker 3: to do it is a problem. The fact that one

919
00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:45,520
Speaker 3: of our players thirty minutes after the game puts three

920
00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:49,839
Speaker 3: highlights of him playing well is a problem. And that's

921
00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:52,000
Speaker 3: a culture problem, and that's a coaching problem.

922
00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:53,759
Speaker 5: We talked a lot about culture in the end of

923
00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:56,840
Speaker 5: Mark Stoops era. Yeah, I think culture issue in basketball.

924
00:41:56,920 --> 00:41:58,480
Speaker 3: I mean, I think it's not been good in the

925
00:41:58,560 --> 00:42:01,040
Speaker 3: last few weeks, at least nine, two, eight oh twenty

926
00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:03,279
Speaker 3: two eighty seven. We're here at Chaos Bar and Grill.

927
00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:06,839
Speaker 3: We're about to open and have a little chow. We'll

928
00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:08,879
Speaker 3: take a break and be right back to Kentucky Sports Radio.
