Speaker 3: better deal in Lexington and a nice post win crowd

22
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:13,319
Speaker 3: already here this morning to celebrate another big win by

23
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,679
Speaker 3: the Cats, this time against the Balls, sweeping the season

24
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 3: series five of the last six against Tennessee as they

25
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 3: win eighty five seventy four. Ryan, you know, it was

26
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:27,400
Speaker 3: a party atmosphere in Lexington. It was a party here

27
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,800
Speaker 3: before the game. It was a party at Rupperena. I

28
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,560
Speaker 3: think when otega Oway got that dunk at the end,

29
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:37,320
Speaker 3: that's one of the louder pops as they used in wrestling,

30
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:41,399
Speaker 3: that I've heard in Rupperena in quite some time. The

31
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:46,119
Speaker 3: two Kentucky kids combined for nineteen points. Kobe Brea makes

32
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 3: big shots, Ansley on the norm maybe makes the biggest

33
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 3: play of the game. What a bizarre way to win

34
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:55,680
Speaker 3: against your rival in Rupperena.

35
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 4: You're right, man, it is a great day to celebrate

36
00:01:57,680 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 4: for all those ridgs you just listed. You're playing short handed.

37
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,840
Speaker 4: You basically your top three point guard druggle are out,

38
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 4: and you had to go with two Kentucky kids off

39
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:07,240
Speaker 4: the bench and Ansley Almanor to carry in.

40
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 3: Those three guys came through for you. I mean, you

41
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,960
Speaker 3: could make a strong argument that the four biggest players

42
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 3: in the game were all dudes that in the first

43
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:17,359
Speaker 3: game didn't start. I mean, you could really say that

44
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:21,640
Speaker 3: the Kobe Brea, Almanor and and Perry and Noah were

45
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 3: the two. I mean, Butler played really well on Oway too,

46
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:26,840
Speaker 3: But I mean, if you're just talking about, like made

47
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 3: the plays that were most important in the moments Drew,

48
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 3: it's four guys. As I said on the postgame show,

49
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 3: you had dudes that at the beginning of the year

50
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 3: were the ninth, tenth, and eleventh men on the team.

51
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 3: In Almanor, Perry, and Noah combined for thirty two points

52
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 3: against the best defensive team in the country.

53
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:50,639
Speaker 2: That's crazy, Yeah, especially there at the end, Tennessee was

54
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 2: up I guess three, and then it felt like there

55
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:54,959
Speaker 2: was a run of a couple of Almanor buckets, a

56
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:58,240
Speaker 2: couple of Brea threes, the captain of the lobda oweyh.

57
00:02:58,240 --> 00:02:59,959
Speaker 2: But a lot of the secondary players were the ones

58
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,000
Speaker 2: making the big plays down the stretch, which just made

59
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 2: it so much more fun to see knowing that they

60
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 2: had the shorthanded roster and they really went by the

61
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 2: next man up.

62
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,640
Speaker 3: I mean everybody here had to think when it was

63
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:13,679
Speaker 3: fifty eight fifty five Tennessee, after we'd been up nine

64
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 3: or ten and we let them come back, they take

65
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 3: the lead. I think they had scored on eight straight

66
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 3: possessions and Butler goes down. There has to be a

67
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,639
Speaker 3: sense that everybody was like, well, this is over right,

68
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:30,120
Speaker 3: Like we've lost Butler, we don't have Robinson. Car is

69
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 3: still not close to one hundred percent. We had a

70
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 3: few possessions where we had no movement on offense and

71
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 3: it was like, well, this is it. And then out

72
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 3: of nowhere, Ansley Almonor beats a guy off the dribble

73
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 3: and gets an A and one like, I mean, you

74
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 3: could not have seen that happen.

75
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:49,120
Speaker 4: The Andley Almanor play. We've not seen that all year long.

76
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 4: For him to beat anybody off the dribble a huge

77
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 4: point of the game.

78
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 3: He didn't get that three point play. That was that

79
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 3: one got a fist pump for me at home home,

80
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 3: And I don't always fist pump, but that was that

81
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 3: was a fist pump. I couldn't believe it. And then

82
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 3: you know Mount Mambo with three first half threes. I

83
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 3: mean that he still looks like he's twelve years old,

84
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 3: and he gets three first half threes, makes free throws

85
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 3: down the stretch. You know, Travis Perry taking dudes off

86
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 3: the bounce and banking in shots. Kobe Brea just keep

87
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,760
Speaker 3: scooping back and making far. Was just an amazing victory.

88
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 2: Oddly, Yeah, career high for Travis Perry, did all on

89
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:31,360
Speaker 2: the first half. And I love the Noah free throws

90
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 2: late in the game where they're two minutes left. I mean,

91
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 2: that kid wasn't even supposed to be on this team

92
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 2: a year ago.

93
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 3: First free throws of the year. Yeah, not shot a

94
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 3: free throw all season.

95
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 2: Then you put him on the team. It's like, well,

96
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:44,919
Speaker 2: maybe year three he'll be something. No at Tennessee hitting

97
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 2: from the logo and when Tennessee comes here knocking down

98
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 2: two clutch free throws down the stretch. It's been amazing

99
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,000
Speaker 2: seeing the two guys that were in last year's KHSAA

100
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,000
Speaker 2: Sweet sixteen step up in year one.

101
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:57,279
Speaker 3: I said on the postgame show that I know who

102
00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:01,279
Speaker 3: he is. He is our kid, like that dude at Clempson.

103
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:03,840
Speaker 3: He's gonna be that guy. You know, the dude at

104
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:05,880
Speaker 3: Clemson that like you look at him, you how's that

105
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 3: guy good? Yeah, Shefflin, I think he's his name, And

106
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 3: and because he doesn't have a body that would make

107
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 3: you think he's good, it doesn't look like he could

108
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 3: be quick, and yet he's really good. That's gonna be Trent, Noah.

109
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 3: Trent's a better shooter than Sheflin. Sheffeld's probably better, rebounder, stronger.

110
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:25,280
Speaker 3: But I think that's gonna be Noah. He's gonna be

111
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:26,840
Speaker 3: one of these guys when he's a junior and senior

112
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 3: people like, how did he just score eighteen points against US?

113
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:32,120
Speaker 3: I kind of feel like that's gonna be here. He is.

114
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:33,920
Speaker 4: He's one of those guys that just has the ability

115
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:35,960
Speaker 4: to get his hands on balls, whether it's deflections or

116
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,160
Speaker 4: steals or rebounds or something. He's always at the right

117
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:40,360
Speaker 4: spot at the right time. And I think I don't

118
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:41,920
Speaker 4: know if it was Tom or somebody said last night,

119
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 4: you know, the dude didn't even play one minute in

120
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 4: the first four SEC games this year.

121
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,680
Speaker 3: That's crazy, that's crazy. And he was in down like

122
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 3: he was in the last five and he should have

123
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 3: been should have been and he should have been. I mean,

124
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,920
Speaker 3: he was making the plays to be in there at

125
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 3: the end. It was it was just bizarre to see

126
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:01,599
Speaker 3: how they were, how they were playing. And then I

127
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,560
Speaker 3: don't know, we have some sort of voodoo on Tennessee

128
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:07,159
Speaker 3: this year. I don't think people realize because we have

129
00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:10,680
Speaker 3: hit fifty percent of our threes in both games. But

130
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 3: that's the number one three point defense in the country.

131
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 3: They are number one in the country, and yet we've

132
00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:20,680
Speaker 3: made twenty five threes against them. And then while they

133
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:24,840
Speaker 3: can't shoot, they shoot like they've never seen a basketball

134
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 3: against us. It's crazy.

135
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, we I mean, we wanted to recreate what happened

136
00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:31,600
Speaker 2: in Knoxville when they went eleven for forty five. We

137
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 2: knew that wasn't likely, but somehow they managed to have

138
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 2: a worse percentage. They didn't take as many. Lanier and

139
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,919
Speaker 2: Zigler went oh for nine from three to last for

140
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 2: eleven or oh for eleven, excuse me. And then there

141
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:43,720
Speaker 2: were four for twenty one in the other game. So

142
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 2: add that up and those guys were just throwing bricks

143
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:48,360
Speaker 2: in these games. And that's how you beat Tennessee's. Make

144
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 2: them shoot. And even though Zigler came in this game

145
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,839
Speaker 2: seven for eight in his last two games, there's something

146
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 2: about that Kentucky logos.

147
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 3: He just cannot play well, he just cannot. They just

148
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 3: can't do it. And it was clear that they had

149
00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:02,720
Speaker 3: made made the decision we're not gonna shoot his him.

150
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 3: It was interesting, I think once again Pope out schemed Barnes.

151
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:10,400
Speaker 3: So Barnes clearly told his team, we're not shooting forty

152
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:13,040
Speaker 3: five threes. That's not what we do. Because you could

153
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:14,840
Speaker 3: tell when those guys had open threes they didn't want

154
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 3: to take them. So you could tell Barnes and said,

155
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:19,840
Speaker 3: you're gonna go to the But we then decided, you

156
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 3: know what, well, we'll just back up farther. We'll let

157
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 3: you shoot long twos. And they shot a ton of Now,

158
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 3: they made a bunch of them. They actually shot long

159
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 3: twos pretty well. But I think Pope was probably like,

160
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 3: I'm good with them shooting long twos. If they make them,

161
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 3: they make them. And they ended up finding a way

162
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 3: to make Barnes take worse shots than they took the

163
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 3: week before.

164
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,640
Speaker 4: You're right that their offense early was that they were

165
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:43,520
Speaker 4: gonna take whoever was guarding, if he was Breer or

166
00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 4: one of the weak defenders, they were gonna go right

167
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:45,520
Speaker 4: at him.

168
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:46,080
Speaker 3: Gainey.

169
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:47,920
Speaker 4: He would I don't know how many times he was driving.

170
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 4: He drove to the basket every time Perry came in.

171
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 4: Zigler would try to go right and they did take

172
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:54,720
Speaker 4: but those were defensive mismatches. By the time we had

173
00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 4: the right line up in, they were shooting fifteen feet

174
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 4: free throw.

175
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 3: Line jumpers and they made a bunch of it did

176
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,640
Speaker 3: but I think they were I think Pope was probably

177
00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:07,240
Speaker 3: alright with that as a strategy.

178
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, And there was a couple of times where Tennessee

179
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:10,640
Speaker 2: did go to the lane or make a long two

180
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 2: and you're like and then it bang a three on

181
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:14,160
Speaker 2: the other end, You're like, well, okay, we can keep

182
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 2: doing this if they want to play that game. Three

183
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 2: is worth more than two. It's just the the philosophy

184
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 2: of the formula, whatever you call it, is there to

185
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 2: beat Tennessee. And it was just so fun to watch

186
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 2: them throw bricks again all night. I want to play

187
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 2: them again in Nashville. That might get a little cocky. Yeah,

188
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:29,680
Speaker 2: it's a little cock I said. I was so confident

189
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 2: going into that game. I just think it's a good matchup.

190
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:33,520
Speaker 2: I don't think Barnes can which is crazy because.

191
00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:35,120
Speaker 3: I thought it was going to be a bad matchup.

192
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,079
Speaker 3: I kind of thought at the beginning of the year

193
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:40,360
Speaker 3: they were the worst matchup for US, But it seems

194
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,880
Speaker 3: to me it's turned out that they are the best.

195
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 3: And I think it's their lineup they don't really have.

196
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:50,760
Speaker 3: They don't really have great athletes like Arkansas killed us

197
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 3: with athletes. Their dudes are not great athletes and the

198
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:56,840
Speaker 3: ones that are are short. So we seem to be

199
00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 3: able to you know, our best defenders are Butler in

200
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:01,720
Speaker 3: no way They're players are at the one and the two,

201
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:04,439
Speaker 3: so that probably helps. Their center is the only dude

202
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:07,120
Speaker 3: who's played well against US in these games, milchick.

203
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:11,040
Speaker 2: But uh, I think they thought Lanier was Dalton connect

204
00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 2: round two and he's not. He's fine, but I mean

205
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:16,800
Speaker 2: he's he's not the star that they need him to be.

206
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:20,080
Speaker 4: You really see how good Kentucky can be when Bray

207
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 4: is hitting no shots, though, man, when he's hitting the

208
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:23,240
Speaker 4: different we're.

209
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 3: A different team. Yep, we're a different team. So first

210
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 3: of all, when you Billy sets up on the postgame show,

211
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:33,040
Speaker 3: was the halftime show the best thing.

212
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:38,080
Speaker 2: To grace thing ever. It's the greatest thing ever. Pee Juggler, Man,

213
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 2: I was there witchcraft so free? I don't know. I'm

214
00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 2: still I was up all night. I couldn't sleep. I

215
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:44,319
Speaker 2: started the ceiling like, how'd she do that? But but

216
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 2: what did she do? She laid on her back and

217
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:48,520
Speaker 2: then she took kind of like your boy Darlington, but

218
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:50,439
Speaker 2: used her feet. She took a chair and just started

219
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,199
Speaker 2: spinning it with her feet like okay, it was unbelievable

220
00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:55,600
Speaker 2: just the chair alone. But then they brought out this

221
00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 2: basketball goal that was probably twenty thirty feet high, and

222
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:01,679
Speaker 2: it had three level to it, and she kicked the

223
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:03,559
Speaker 2: ball and it would land on one level, and then

224
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:05,680
Speaker 2: she'd juggle it and land on the next one, and

225
00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 2: then the next one, and then it went in a

226
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,360
Speaker 2: hoop at the top. Now, I know that sounds like

227
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,680
Speaker 2: it doesn't make sense. Go to my Twitter to see

228
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,880
Speaker 2: the video. But Red Panda's on the hot seat, Billy,

229
00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 2: I love you. We have a new number one.

230
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:19,840
Speaker 3: Billy said. He it was the most impressive thing.

231
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 2: He's ever I don't even know how you would begin

232
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 2: to learn you have this talent, how you would practice it?

233
00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,120
Speaker 3: Always I always wonder with things like that, what's the

234
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:29,520
Speaker 3: first time you do it? Like the very first time

235
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,440
Speaker 3: you do it. You gotta be like, what am I doing?

236
00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:34,840
Speaker 4: The and the thing about when Drew is saying like

237
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 4: she went from platform to platform. Those platforms are on

238
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 4: like a swivel. They weren't like station. They want to swivel.

239
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 4: She'd put it near it, it would like it would like

240
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 4: move on.

241
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 3: It's all.

242
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:44,080
Speaker 5: No.

243
00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,400
Speaker 3: I watched his video. Oh you are his video? Okay, Well,

244
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 3: so besides that, I mean that was talking about it.

245
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:50,880
Speaker 2: I'm serious.

246
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:52,120
Speaker 3: Talk about the crowd.

247
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,000
Speaker 2: They liked Paypey too. We were all big paype fans.

248
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:58,559
Speaker 3: That's what gay. Yeah.

249
00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 2: No, And it was a great out. The rain, the

250
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:03,960
Speaker 2: slush did not hold them back at all. That was

251
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,920
Speaker 2: just as good as I don't want to say Arkansas close,

252
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,440
Speaker 2: but the Florida game, that was so awesome. The biggest

253
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:12,000
Speaker 2: home games of the year, it's right there with them,

254
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:12,679
Speaker 2: if not the best.

255
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:14,959
Speaker 3: This has been a great run of home games. I mean,

256
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:24,079
Speaker 3: if you start the crowd we had for Louisville, Florida, Alabama, Tennessee, Arkansas,

257
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 3: I mean that's a heck of a run of We

258
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:29,719
Speaker 3: still got Auburn, still got Auburn coming up. I mean

259
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 3: that's you got your money's worth with season tickets this year, Ryan,

260
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:35,319
Speaker 3: in terms of the games you get in Rubbed.

261
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 4: Well, you know, we were all a little concerned what

262
00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 4: the crowd was actually going to be like, but then

263
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 4: we got to feel during the pregame show here at

264
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:41,000
Speaker 4: the restaurant that it was.

265
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 3: I was shocked. I was shocked. I mean, I kind

266
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:49,040
Speaker 3: of this restaurant before the game tends to be a

267
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 3: pretty good judge. And I pulled up here at four

268
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 3: I was like, man, there's more cars that I thought.

269
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:55,520
Speaker 3: And we were full three hours for the game. And

270
00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:58,800
Speaker 3: I went on a weeknight that's it usually gets full

271
00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:00,960
Speaker 3: by the end of our show, but it's not always

272
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,079
Speaker 3: at the start. And it was a line at the beginning,

273
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 3: and I went, oh, this weather's not gonna keep the

274
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:06,320
Speaker 3: crowd it what.

275
00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:08,760
Speaker 2: I was shocked too. I mean, you're talking four o'clock

276
00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:11,320
Speaker 2: Lexington in the rain. People were in here. It was

277
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:14,120
Speaker 2: a Saturday night crowd is what it felt like. There's

278
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,320
Speaker 2: a little too much orange. But you know, I'm glad

279
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:18,559
Speaker 2: they came and visited, spent a little money and enjoyed

280
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:20,640
Speaker 2: their night in Lexington. But that was just a prelude

281
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:21,720
Speaker 2: to what happened at rub.

282
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,840
Speaker 3: So after the game Mark Pope said about Lamont Butler

283
00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 3: and Jackson Robinson it would be a little while, but

284
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:33,200
Speaker 3: he did think they'd be back ready. So I sort

285
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 3: of saw that as to say, those last couple of

286
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,880
Speaker 3: games the regular season, maybe Auburn, LSU, Missouri, maybe we

287
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:41,640
Speaker 3: have those guys, but that I think we have to

288
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:46,520
Speaker 3: mentally prepare going into Texas, Vandy and maybe even Alabama

289
00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:49,320
Speaker 3: on the road that we're not gonna have those dudes.

290
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:53,599
Speaker 3: Alabama on the road without those dudes is gonna be

291
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:57,440
Speaker 3: a tough task. But Texas and Vandy, I think we

292
00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:00,559
Speaker 3: can beat them with the lineup we have. It won't

293
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:02,959
Speaker 3: be easy, but I think you can win those games.

294
00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:05,840
Speaker 4: Ryan especially, Yeah, if Brave you're shooting the way he's shooting,

295
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 4: and you get that contribution to those three guys off

296
00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:10,200
Speaker 4: the bench. They shown they completely be at a very

297
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:12,680
Speaker 4: high level without those guys, which if you told me

298
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:14,760
Speaker 4: before the game that we're gonna lose them both, I

299
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:16,480
Speaker 4: would think we're in big trouble. Gets to this city.

300
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:18,679
Speaker 3: Oh, when Butler went down, I thought we're losing this one.

301
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 3: And then I looked at the schedule and I was like,

302
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,520
Speaker 3: are we gonna be all right? You know and and

303
00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 3: and now you know you won this one. I said,

304
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,840
Speaker 3: we need to win one game this week. We already did.

305
00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:31,160
Speaker 3: I think at Texas. If you can get that one,

306
00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 3: be great. Then you have Vandy at home. That's not easy,

307
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 3: but it's at home, so you know ourched. We've gotten

308
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 3: through a lot of the tough schedule. This was that

309
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:41,280
Speaker 3: was a big win last night.

310
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,400
Speaker 2: I've been promoting my four game win streak here, we're

311
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,719
Speaker 2: halfway there. Uh, the Butler news that hurts it a

312
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:49,800
Speaker 2: little bit. I'm sticking with it though. The one time

313
00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 2: I saw a whole Texas game, they don't play a

314
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:53,920
Speaker 2: lot of defense, which gives me a little hope there.

315
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:57,120
Speaker 3: They've gotten destroyed. Yeah, they got destroyed last night and

316
00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,600
Speaker 3: Arkansas beat them there and then they got destroyed by

317
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,800
Speaker 3: Band So they're on a pretty big downhill run. So

318
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:04,320
Speaker 3: hopefully we can take advantage of that.

319
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:06,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, when that one, you gotta feel good about Vandy

320
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 2: at home and at that point, just see if you

321
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:10,960
Speaker 2: can knock off Auburn Alabama and really make the season special.

322
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:15,520
Speaker 3: You got seven laugh you got at Alabama. I'm gonna

323
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 3: put that one as a loss. I don't know that

324
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 3: we can win that one, but then at Oklahoma, at Texas,

325
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:23,280
Speaker 3: at Missouri. None of those are obvious wins, but you

326
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 3: could win them all if you play well. L Sho

327
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 3: at home, I feel good about Vandy at home, you

328
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:29,320
Speaker 3: feel good about Then you got Auburn at home, and

329
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 3: we'll see what happens with that one.

330
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:32,680
Speaker 4: So I feel a lot better about the Texas game

331
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 4: after watching them last night against Alabama. That came on

332
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:36,680
Speaker 4: right after the Kentucky games, so you got to watch

333
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,200
Speaker 4: in law while listening to your postgame show. Yeah, they're

334
00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 4: having some issues. They're seem like they're going the wrong direction. Yeah,

335
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:43,960
Speaker 4: I thought they played pretty well earlier in the season,

336
00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:44,600
Speaker 4: but they're going back.

337
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:46,760
Speaker 3: I was thinking about the league last night. I mean,

338
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 3: part of why the league is so good is if

339
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:51,400
Speaker 3: you look at the sixteen teams in the league, there's

340
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:55,680
Speaker 3: a strong argument that fourteen of the sixteen are either

341
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 3: kind of what we thought or better. That really only

342
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:02,400
Speaker 3: Texas in Arkansas are worse. But Texas is worse, and

343
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:05,000
Speaker 3: we already lost Arkansas. So it would be nice if

344
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 3: we can, you know, get the win against Texas. If

345
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:10,600
Speaker 3: I'm nine two eight oh twenty two eighty seven text

346
00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:13,240
Speaker 3: machine seven seven two seven seven four five two five four.

347
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,840
Speaker 3: We are here at ks Bar and Grill celebrating a

348
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,680
Speaker 3: sweep of the vaults, sweep first time we've swept them

349
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:24,000
Speaker 3: since like twenty twelve, but we were twenty fifteen.

350
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:26,080
Speaker 2: To the the we did two years ago. It's only

351
00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 2: two times.

352
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:28,480
Speaker 3: I will never mind shut up, Well go to twice

353
00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:30,320
Speaker 3: since Barts is doing me. I don't need you with

354
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:33,720
Speaker 3: all the facts. Okay, two years ago. We'll take a

355
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:37,920
Speaker 3: break and be right back. It's Kentucky Sports Radio. Walking back.

356
00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:40,520
Speaker 3: It is Kentucky Sports Radio if I'm nine two eight

357
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:42,960
Speaker 3: oh twenty two eighty seven. A couple other things about

358
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:44,440
Speaker 3: the game before we go. The phones. First of all,

359
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:46,560
Speaker 3: got the ol Way. They got the O Way chant

360
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:49,520
Speaker 3: going thank you to all the fans. I wondered when

361
00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:51,320
Speaker 3: that was gonna happen. And then they did it during

362
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 3: those free throws at the end. That made me happy. Finally,

363
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:56,160
Speaker 3: after all this time, we got that uh loud enough

364
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:58,000
Speaker 3: you could hear it even here on the TV broadcast.

365
00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:00,720
Speaker 3: Yeah here here heard it on the TV. I didn't

366
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:02,480
Speaker 3: want to talk for a second about the two kids

367
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:08,640
Speaker 3: from Kentucky, because you know, I think it's important when

368
00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 3: we talk about them to like realize, I mean, look,

369
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:13,880
Speaker 3: they are the seventh eighth guys. I mean, I'm not

370
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,200
Speaker 3: trying to say that they're the key to the team,

371
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:19,640
Speaker 3: but there is certainly it is certainly the case that

372
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 3: for citizens of Kentucky, having two Kentucky kids on the

373
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:26,560
Speaker 3: team playing well is really important. Then you throw in

374
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:29,200
Speaker 3: that they're from small towns, right like, they're not just

375
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:33,080
Speaker 3: from Lexington and Louisville. They're from Harlan and they're from Eddieville,

376
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:36,400
Speaker 3: right Like that matters. One of them's in eastern Kentucky,

377
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:39,480
Speaker 3: one of them's in western Kentucky. They played in the

378
00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:41,800
Speaker 3: state championship in the finals, like it's almost like a

379
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:45,280
Speaker 3: storybook thing. And then neither of them the last coach

380
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,200
Speaker 3: really didn't want eat one of them. He ended up

381
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:51,000
Speaker 3: recruiting Perry, but that was almost forced on him, didn't

382
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:54,320
Speaker 3: recruit Noah. Then they end up on the team with

383
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 3: the guy that played at Kentucky bringing them in, so

384
00:16:57,320 --> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 3: it's almost like a perfect story. But then for them

385
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:04,640
Speaker 3: to actually contribute in their first year and to do

386
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:09,879
Speaker 3: it like bean dudes from Kentucky. I mean, Trent Noah

387
00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:12,240
Speaker 3: looks like a dude that plays in the thirteenth Region.

388
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:14,640
Speaker 3: You know, he doesn't. He's not like a super athlete,

389
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:19,480
Speaker 3: he but he works hard and he makes shots and

390
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:22,280
Speaker 3: then to beat Tennessee. You know, Trent Noah said, my

391
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:25,439
Speaker 3: mama gets her hair done in Knoxville. Like I love that.

392
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 3: That's such a that's like, that's like such a thing.

393
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:31,359
Speaker 3: Someone in the thirteenth region would say. People's moms in

394
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:34,320
Speaker 3: Middlesbrough and Harlan they get their hair done in Knoxville.

395
00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:37,480
Speaker 3: I get it. I just think that makes it so

396
00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:43,400
Speaker 3: much more special, especially to rural Kentuckians, like rural part

397
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:46,040
Speaker 3: of why then we love the ninety two team so much.

398
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:49,000
Speaker 3: They were rural Kentuckians and we just, I mean, we

399
00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:50,399
Speaker 3: just don't get a lot of those, right, I mean,

400
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,920
Speaker 3: it just it just doesn't happen very much. Had Darius

401
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 3: Miller and Dante Allen played a little bit Patrick Sparks

402
00:17:57,840 --> 00:17:59,600
Speaker 3: back in the day, it just doesn't happen, though, And

403
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 3: to have two of them on one team, Ryan, I

404
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:04,840
Speaker 3: just think it's really kind of a special thing for

405
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:05,920
Speaker 3: fans to watch.

406
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:08,040
Speaker 4: It, watch it take place, and then, like you said,

407
00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:12,119
Speaker 4: not just sitting on the bench contributing, playing meaningful minutes.

408
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 4: You know, these two guys probably would never have got

409
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:15,720
Speaker 4: one minute last year if Cal was here, he just

410
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,400
Speaker 4: wouldn't play those guys. Pope has put him in early enough,

411
00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 4: get their feet wet, knock the rust off, so when

412
00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:22,400
Speaker 4: he needs them they could contribute.

413
00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:24,200
Speaker 3: And that's exactly what happened last night. And I think

414
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,480
Speaker 3: we can all see a world where in like two years,

415
00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:30,680
Speaker 3: they're really part like they're they're either starters or six men.

416
00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 3: I mean, I think I've become more and more convinced.

417
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:35,440
Speaker 3: I think Noah could be really good. I mean, I

418
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 3: think Perry can be a really good role player. His

419
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:40,320
Speaker 3: defense is always gonna hurt him a little bit, but

420
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:43,120
Speaker 3: I think Noah can like be one of your best

421
00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:44,400
Speaker 3: players at some point.

422
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,959
Speaker 2: I think it's just exciting to see. Yeah, with the

423
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,600
Speaker 2: them been from Kentucky. I mean, more than half the

424
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,920
Speaker 2: fan base grew up wanting to be a Kentucky basketball player,

425
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,480
Speaker 2: and the percentage of that happening is less than half

426
00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:58,959
Speaker 2: a percent. But these two actually lived it, so it's

427
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:01,879
Speaker 2: almost like they're living in the crowds dream. We were

428
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:04,439
Speaker 2: all on the driveway thinking that we were gonna be that,

429
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:07,040
Speaker 2: or dreaming we'd be that they're actually doing it. So

430
00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:09,720
Speaker 2: it just kind of when your whole life you've wanted

431
00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:11,439
Speaker 2: to be that and you're seeing someone actually live it,

432
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:12,800
Speaker 2: it's a lot easier to root for us.

433
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:15,159
Speaker 3: I said this on the Postgame Show that I think

434
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:20,119
Speaker 3: somewhere after the Fox Monk here because I think kids

435
00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:23,320
Speaker 3: really liked Fox and Monk. But between that year and

436
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:26,960
Speaker 3: like before last season, I feel like when I was

437
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:30,600
Speaker 3: around kids in Kentucky, they just weren't as excited about

438
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:32,359
Speaker 3: it as they were when I was a kid, and

439
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 3: they it just didn't It felt like they were still

440
00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:38,560
Speaker 3: Kentucky fans, but I just didn't see kids like growing

441
00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:41,439
Speaker 3: up with that this is the most important thing in

442
00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:43,000
Speaker 3: the world that I did. And then I think last

443
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:46,120
Speaker 3: year with Reid and Rob, some of that came back.

444
00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:48,879
Speaker 3: Kids really liked Reed Shepherd and Rob dealing him. They

445
00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 3: felt a connection to them. And now I think this group,

446
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:55,240
Speaker 3: you're seeing it again. Otega Oway. Kids seemed to really

447
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:57,959
Speaker 3: like him, maybe just because of his I don't know

448
00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,760
Speaker 3: his hair, just the way he plays. And then they

449
00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:03,440
Speaker 3: you know, kids in Kentucky can look at Trent Noah

450
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:05,640
Speaker 3: and they can look at Travis Perry and say that

451
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:09,639
Speaker 3: can be me. And I think that really has made

452
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,960
Speaker 3: Between Read and Rob last year and those guys this year,

453
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 3: I think it's really made I just I see more

454
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:18,520
Speaker 3: kids in here before the game. They're wearing the jersey.

455
00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:20,240
Speaker 3: It just you know what I mean, It just if

456
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:23,000
Speaker 3: I feel that thing back, which I really like. And

457
00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:24,720
Speaker 3: I do think Read and Rob had a lot to

458
00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:25,959
Speaker 3: judge that last year.

459
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 6: I do.

460
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,040
Speaker 4: And how about your thirteenth region, man, back to back years,

461
00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:32,560
Speaker 4: Read last year and Trent this year coming out of

462
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:33,520
Speaker 4: the thirteenth region.

463
00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:36,600
Speaker 3: I mean you probably you guys probably listening get tired

464
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:39,280
Speaker 3: of me talking about the thirteenth region. But and it's

465
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:42,080
Speaker 3: not just the thirteenth, the fourteenth has this the fifthe

466
00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:44,760
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm not trying to like monopolize it, but

467
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:50,600
Speaker 3: Southeastern Kentucky. No place in America has been hit harder

468
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:53,960
Speaker 3: by the change in the economy than Southeast Kentucky. The

469
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:59,679
Speaker 3: cole just being off Inner States, you know, having really

470
00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:03,520
Speaker 3: no political representation for reasons that are beyond this year,

471
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:08,359
Speaker 3: like really none, and to have Read last year and

472
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:11,760
Speaker 3: now Trent Noah this year. Just the pride that that

473
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:16,399
Speaker 3: brings in a group of people. I think it's immensely important.

474
00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:18,600
Speaker 3: And I just and I love that read last year,

475
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:22,000
Speaker 3: but Noah this year as well, Like Noah is Harlan

476
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:25,919
Speaker 3: when you say, my mama gets her hair done in Knoxville,

477
00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:29,400
Speaker 3: like that's a Harlan thing and I and I love

478
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:30,080
Speaker 3: that that's.

479
00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:32,879
Speaker 2: Happening outside of Pepe. Last night, my biggest smile might

480
00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:35,040
Speaker 2: have been Trent Noah saying his mom gets done his hair,

481
00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:36,919
Speaker 2: her her hair done in Knoxville. I mean, that is

482
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 2: the most Kentucky.

483
00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:41,760
Speaker 3: Even the phrase get your hair done is a mountain phrase, right,

484
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 3: like like I just that's a mountain thing to say.

485
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:47,520
Speaker 2: And then with Travis for a little different reasons. But

486
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:49,440
Speaker 2: on the other side of the state, you know, Eddieville

487
00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:52,400
Speaker 2: ain't that big, but you know you're Regions thirteen mins

488
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:54,680
Speaker 2: Region two. I grew up going to Venture River water

489
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,000
Speaker 2: Park in Lion County. Have several friends around there and

490
00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,400
Speaker 2: they're beaming with pride too. At the whole miss game,

491
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:02,080
Speaker 2: a whole tru went down of them. So having each

492
00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:04,000
Speaker 2: end of the state makes it even more special too.

493
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:07,119
Speaker 3: Well it's it's it's a fun team to be around.

494
00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:09,280
Speaker 3: And whatever happens the rest of the year, you know,

495
00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:11,840
Speaker 3: we got seven games. We got the SEC Tournament in

496
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 3: the NCAA Tournament. I don't know what's gonna happen. I mean, honestly,

497
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:20,840
Speaker 3: anything could happen. There is a reignity of that flame

498
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:25,000
Speaker 3: that I think makes Kentucky different, right. I mean, you

499
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 3: saw it during the Patino era, most of the Tubby era,

500
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:31,440
Speaker 3: slipped a little bit at the end, certainly the first

501
00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:33,640
Speaker 3: few years of the Caliar, but it's not been the

502
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:37,359
Speaker 3: same in the last five or six years. And it

503
00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:40,040
Speaker 3: kind of got reignited last year. But I think it's

504
00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:44,040
Speaker 3: fully a flame again this year. And Mark and those guys,

505
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:46,760
Speaker 3: you know, I think people like having these players. They're

506
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:50,040
Speaker 3: kind of misfits from all these random schools and they

507
00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:52,119
Speaker 3: come together and work. I just think it's neat to

508
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:56,680
Speaker 3: have that back, and I'll thank Pope for that this year.

509
00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:59,439
Speaker 3: No matter what happens the rest of the season, We'll

510
00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:02,399
Speaker 3: take a call. Be right back. This is KSR. TJ.

00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:16,440
Speaker 3: nine two eight oh twenty two eighty seven. Uh text

518
00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:19,000
Speaker 3: machine seven seven two seven seven four five two five four.

519
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:22,320
Speaker 3: This is gonna be my text today because I you know,

520
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:25,359
Speaker 3: I can't. This is hard for me to fath This

521
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:27,280
Speaker 3: person writes, what if I told you before the game

522
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 3: that Butler, Carr, Robinson and Williams would combine for fourteen

523
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:35,480
Speaker 3: points and we'd beat Tennessee.

524
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,159
Speaker 4: Huh say you're dreaming probably hard you.

525
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:40,240
Speaker 3: I would have had to think, well, Kobe Braa went

526
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:42,320
Speaker 3: for thirty, that's the only way we could have won

527
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:45,200
Speaker 3: that game. And uh, and we still won. And even

528
00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:47,760
Speaker 3: though he made what he had fourteen, like, he's still like,

529
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:51,120
Speaker 3: I mean, he scored, but he did go off. So yeah,

530
00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 3: I mean that is amazing that those dudes. I mean

531
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:57,520
Speaker 3: that's that's basically four of your five starters to start

532
00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:00,159
Speaker 3: the season combined for fourteen points and you still win

533
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:00,480
Speaker 3: the game.

534
00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:03,080
Speaker 4: So, you know, we've kind of been critical of saying

535
00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:05,240
Speaker 4: Pope should levy starters in there more often.

536
00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:11,119
Speaker 3: Maybe I still believe that not necessarily. Well, my problem

537
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:14,359
Speaker 3: is only with the line changes, Like I don't like

538
00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:17,359
Speaker 3: the put all five of those guys in together. I

539
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:19,680
Speaker 3: don't think that works, and it didn't work last night.

540
00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:21,720
Speaker 3: I mean, we were up ten, they put all five

541
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:23,080
Speaker 3: of those guys in together and then it was a

542
00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:26,880
Speaker 3: three point game. You just can't do that. But what

543
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:29,920
Speaker 3: I what we've seen is though those guys combined with starters,

544
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:31,320
Speaker 3: I think can really work well.

545
00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:34,160
Speaker 4: I haven't seen the plus minus, but i'd say Trent

546
00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:34,959
Speaker 4: Noah must have been.

547
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:38,800
Speaker 3: Noah was first. Actually actually Carr was first.

548
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:43,760
Speaker 2: I think Noah Car Williams and cars at sixteen, Trent

549
00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:45,200
Speaker 2: Noah eighteen. He's the leader.

550
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, so Noah, Carr and Williams, And that makes watching

551
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:51,639
Speaker 3: the game, you know, not trying to be critical. I

552
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:55,240
Speaker 3: thought Brandon Garrison was bad. I thought he played really poorly,

553
00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:56,960
Speaker 3: So it doesn't surprise me that we were a lot

554
00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:00,359
Speaker 3: better with Williams. Yeah, i'd say was Perry was probably

555
00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:03,560
Speaker 3: a negative? Is he a negative? Non sine? But that

556
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:05,280
Speaker 3: was in part because they put him in in those

557
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,360
Speaker 3: line changes, and those line changes just don't I don't

558
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:10,120
Speaker 3: think they work for this this team.

559
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:13,399
Speaker 2: And mister automatic oh way, another double digit game. We

560
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:15,760
Speaker 2: had thirteen, But it's every single game this season the

561
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:17,120
Speaker 2: only person in the SEC was done.

562
00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:20,159
Speaker 3: Let's note that for a second, this is an amazing statistic.

563
00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:23,119
Speaker 3: I mean, he he has gotten double figures in every game.

564
00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:28,119
Speaker 3: They're the last person to get twenty four straight games

565
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:30,760
Speaker 3: was Malik Monk, who, if you remember, was pretty amazing.

566
00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 3: I said the wrong stat on the air last night.

567
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:36,080
Speaker 3: Antonio Reeves last year had double figures in every game

568
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:39,920
Speaker 3: but one. He had nine points in one game. Oh wait,

569
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:43,159
Speaker 3: doesn't put up the big numbers that Reeves does. But

570
00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:45,879
Speaker 3: that's an amazing thing for that kid to be double

571
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:48,600
Speaker 3: figures every game. You talk about something I wouldn't have seen.

572
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:50,600
Speaker 3: I didn't even think he was gonna start before the

573
00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:51,280
Speaker 3: season starts.

574
00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:53,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, this summer, we're talking about potential starting lineups. We

575
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:55,879
Speaker 4: never put him in the starting line. Now he's the

576
00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:57,720
Speaker 4: guy who's been the most consistent all year. And do

577
00:25:57,760 --> 00:25:58,560
Speaker 4: we get him back?

578
00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:01,320
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, I think he'll be a big piece.

579
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:03,720
Speaker 3: Yeah next year. So next year we could have Oway,

580
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 3: Garrison and then whatever happens with kr, Right, that's it,

581
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:12,480
Speaker 3: and then yeah, yeah, Away and Garrison and Hill. All right,

582
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:13,280
Speaker 3: who's up first hit?

583
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:15,760
Speaker 1: All right, let's start with Jay and Lennon, Jay and Lyndon,

584
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:16,280
Speaker 1: how are you?

585
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,720
Speaker 5: I'm okay. The only disappointing thing last night is I

586
00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:22,240
Speaker 5: had the flu and I couldn't go to the game,

587
00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:24,479
Speaker 5: but now I wanted to see this. The best thing

588
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:27,160
Speaker 5: to come on the show in a while is you,

589
00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:30,840
Speaker 5: being from eastern Kentucky coming up with the mountain mamba names.

590
00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:32,919
Speaker 3: I didn't come up with it. I didn't come up

591
00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:34,119
Speaker 3: with I don't want to take credit for it. It

592
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,479
Speaker 3: was a guy or a person on the ks board,

593
00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:39,720
Speaker 3: Kippy Skippy. So we got to give credit to Skippy

594
00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:42,040
Speaker 3: on ks board. I'll take you know, I'll take credit

595
00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,000
Speaker 3: for anything I do. I'm not humble about it. But

596
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 3: I didn't do that one. It says you got to

597
00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 3: give that to Skippy who came up with mountain Bamba.

598
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:51,240
Speaker 5: Well, I mean you vetting it. So I want to

599
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:55,040
Speaker 5: throw down a gauntlet here. Since Travis Perry's from Western Kentucky,

600
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:58,520
Speaker 5: I think fans need to share their nicknames for Travis Perry,

601
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 5: not to be Drew, with Drew being Western Kentucky, and

602
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,800
Speaker 5: Drew's gonna help get the nickname for Travis Perry because

603
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:08,120
Speaker 5: we need a nickname for both of them.

604
00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:11,520
Speaker 3: All Right, I let Drew. We'll let Drew. If I

605
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:15,320
Speaker 3: sort of vetted the mountain Mamba, We'll let Drew at

606
00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:20,400
Speaker 3: the Western Kentucky Travis Perry name. Send all your suggestions

607
00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:23,480
Speaker 3: to Travis, to Drew Franklin. That's a good idea, Jay,

608
00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:24,040
Speaker 3: I appreciate that.

609
00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:26,120
Speaker 2: There's been a few that are okay, We're not ready

610
00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:28,080
Speaker 2: to commit to any. None are quite like Mountain Mamba.

611
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:28,520
Speaker 3: Oh yaw.

612
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:31,480
Speaker 2: The leader is Venture River Monster, because Venture rivers the

613
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:32,200
Speaker 2: water park there.

614
00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:34,960
Speaker 3: I think that's gonna be hard to Venture River Monsters

615
00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:37,560
Speaker 3: a lot. I need to say something to Mark Pope.

616
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:41,200
Speaker 3: Love you, Mark Pope. We all adore you. Stop trying

617
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:44,000
Speaker 3: to switch it to Hollerballer. We have all settled on

618
00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:49,080
Speaker 3: Mountain Mamba. He keeps saying, I prefer Hollerballer. No, sorry,

619
00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:53,320
Speaker 3: Mountain Mamba is already one. Don't confuse us with the

620
00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:56,600
Speaker 3: second one. Let's just stay with the one that people like.

621
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:59,920
Speaker 3: Nochs st No likes it too, he said he likes it.

622
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:00,520
Speaker 3: They do.

623
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:02,080
Speaker 4: I think Jack asked me about it last night in

624
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:04,199
Speaker 4: the postgame show, and he Trent embraced it like he

625
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:05,240
Speaker 4: thought it was awesome.

626
00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:09,760
Speaker 3: Plus holler and Baller don't rhyme right. You can go

627
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:13,120
Speaker 3: Bower Holler Baller, but like you're trying a little hard there.

628
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:14,840
Speaker 3: Mountain Mamba is the way to get I.

629
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 2: Didn't see him Mountain Mamba T shirts last night, but

630
00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:18,879
Speaker 2: I saw baby T shirt.

631
00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:22,280
Speaker 3: Have they not been selling those? Like, come on, Skippy,

632
00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:23,960
Speaker 3: get on it. Kentucky Brandon, what are you doing?

633
00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:26,120
Speaker 2: I like Tom Leitch, who doesn't even tweet that much,

634
00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:28,880
Speaker 2: tweeted out like a song about Mountain Mamba last night.

635
00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:30,280
Speaker 2: I mean, everybody's all in on it.

636
00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:33,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's the that's the way to go.

637
00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 3: Who's next.

638
00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:34,800
Speaker 1: Let's go to Greg?

639
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:36,119
Speaker 3: Greg? Go ahead, Greg?

640
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:39,440
Speaker 7: Hey, can you hear me?

641
00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:40,200
Speaker 5: Yes?

642
00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:40,600
Speaker 3: I can.

643
00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:44,320
Speaker 7: Yeah, thanks for taking my call. Just wanting to mention

644
00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:47,160
Speaker 7: two things real quick. So twelve to twenty four from

645
00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:50,040
Speaker 7: the three point line. That was the same exact same

646
00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:53,400
Speaker 7: we shot at Tennessee. So that was awesome to see,

647
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:56,680
Speaker 7: like catching ready to shoot. Really didn't take a bunch

648
00:28:56,720 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 7: of bad threes, No, not really. To see one, especially

649
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:04,400
Speaker 7: to see won't go in for o way is huge

650
00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:08,240
Speaker 7: because you know, he went through a bunch of struggles

651
00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:10,200
Speaker 7: I feel like, especially in the middle of the season,

652
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:12,160
Speaker 7: and to see him hit one this game, in the

653
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:14,160
Speaker 7: last game, I think is huge for his confidence.

654
00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:17,280
Speaker 3: Totally agree. I appreciate the call. I like the point

655
00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:20,160
Speaker 3: about being ready to shoot. There were a couple times

656
00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:23,120
Speaker 3: I saw I thought that was obvious Trent Noah's third three,

657
00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:25,560
Speaker 3: as Jay Millis noted, he knew he was gonna shoot

658
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:28,080
Speaker 3: it before he even got it, like he that's confidence.

659
00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:31,600
Speaker 3: Ansley Almanor got it a couple times. It's going up.

660
00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:33,280
Speaker 3: He hit one at the top of the key where

661
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:36,239
Speaker 3: I knew, you saw two passes before it got to him.

662
00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:38,280
Speaker 3: He was like, I'm gonna catch this and it's gonna

663
00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:41,720
Speaker 3: go in. O way did not want to shoot his three,

664
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:44,760
Speaker 3: but he did and it went in, and that's good.

665
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:47,600
Speaker 3: I need him to get that confidence going because he

666
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:51,080
Speaker 3: needs to shoot. And then Kobe Brea looks so smooth

667
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:54,520
Speaker 3: on those two long threes. You know, our offense, our

668
00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:58,960
Speaker 3: offense was struggling to get movement, and Kobe Brea got

669
00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:02,320
Speaker 3: us the movement in the last five minutes basically the threes,

670
00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:04,120
Speaker 3: and then they came out so far on him, he

671
00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:06,920
Speaker 3: took him off the dribble through the lob to Otaga.

672
00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:10,040
Speaker 3: Kobe Braya kind of ran the show in those last

673
00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:10,520
Speaker 3: few minutes.

674
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 4: He did, and he would step back a little further

675
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 4: hit it, and then the next one step back a

676
00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:17,000
Speaker 4: little further. Hit that We've talked about his three point

677
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,280
Speaker 4: shooting with the alley oop and he threw up the way.

678
00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:21,720
Speaker 3: I think that was the that was the dagger that

679
00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 3: I think that was the dagger. But he only gets

680
00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 3: to do that, I think because he hits the threes before.

681
00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:29,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I had a bad angle on that, so I

682
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:31,640
Speaker 2: didn't even realize until this morning. Like the close up,

683
00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:34,600
Speaker 2: he's it's a look away aliop too. I mean that

684
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:37,080
Speaker 2: was really playing the game outside of paypay.

685
00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:38,760
Speaker 3: And this is not a team that's been good at

686
00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:42,600
Speaker 3: the alliops. You in pay pay, I mean, you have

687
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:43,560
Speaker 3: something you need to tell us.

688
00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:46,520
Speaker 2: Oh, but when you are somewhere and you see greatness,

689
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:49,000
Speaker 2: you have how I didn't see if she like she

690
00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:50,560
Speaker 2: could be twelve, she could be ninety.

691
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:51,000
Speaker 3: I don't know.

692
00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:54,600
Speaker 2: I don't know, no clue. But when you when you

693
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:56,640
Speaker 2: see greatness in front of you doesn't come around often

694
00:30:56,680 --> 00:31:00,200
Speaker 2: and you're trying to like reach out to her, is

695
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:04,120
Speaker 2: this maybe I just I have questions. I'm telling you

696
00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:05,240
Speaker 2: my mind has not been right.

697
00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:07,560
Speaker 3: So you're saying she's gonna be at the women's.

698
00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:10,719

00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:36,160
Speaker 6: Yeah.

774
00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:38,239
Speaker 3: I might be a sneaking liberal, but first time a

775
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:41,719
Speaker 3: Kentucky fan, I'm not missing the game to go talk

776
00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:46,360
Speaker 3: about the Constitution. Come on, there'll be other constitutions.

777
00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:48,640
Speaker 2: The Constitution has been around a while.

778
00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:55,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, condosition, that's exactly conserution that need me ansley almanor Amen?

779
00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:59,080
Speaker 3: Did you watch the during the post game show? I watched.

780
00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:02,200
Speaker 3: Did you watch Create and Yu Khan at All? I

781
00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:04,600
Speaker 3: did not. Okay, so, first of all, two things I

782
00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:08,719
Speaker 3: liked about Creighton Yukon. Creighton was playing Yukon in Omaha.

783
00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:12,040
Speaker 3: It was at nine o'clock. They decided to have dollar

784
00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:16,960
Speaker 3: Beer night. Oh boy, so the crowd, the crowd was

785
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,520
Speaker 3: the I mean you by the end of the game,

786
00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:22,080
Speaker 3: I was like, these people are going have to be

787
00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:24,360
Speaker 3: escorted out of here. I mean, Omaha hadn't seen that

788
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:27,200
Speaker 3: excitement since they started making those steaks there. I mean,

789
00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:33,200
Speaker 3: that was the last time. Then Yukon wins. Danny Hurley like,

790
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:36,680
Speaker 3: it's good for the sport. He's there. I think he's

791
00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:38,440
Speaker 3: a jerk, but it is good for the sport to

792
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:41,360
Speaker 3: have him. We need villain coaches like, we need somebody

793
00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:44,279
Speaker 3: like that. He walks off the court and people are

794
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:47,040
Speaker 3: yelling at him. He won, they won the game. They're

795
00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:48,880
Speaker 3: yelling at him, and he just looks up at the

796
00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:52,960
Speaker 3: crowd and goes two rings beeping. He beep two rings,

797
00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:54,760
Speaker 3: and then he looks at the guy in the crowd

798
00:35:54,800 --> 00:36:01,879
Speaker 3: and goes, shut up, baldy. Danny Hurry Danny himself has

799
00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:07,400
Speaker 3: no hair, says shut up, baldy. I thought like that,

800
00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:09,680
Speaker 3: there just has no I don't know if he has

801
00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:13,000
Speaker 3: no self awareness or if he doesn't care, but like

802
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:15,880
Speaker 3: yell and shut up Baldy to the guy in the

803
00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:20,440
Speaker 3: crowd when you yourself are bald is a pretty astounding move.

804
00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:23,520
Speaker 2: Drew, Yeah, I saw that clip. He he was doing

805
00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:26,560
Speaker 2: well with the two rings. Stick with that point, the

806
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:29,560
Speaker 2: bald on bald crime. His whole argument went out the window.

807
00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:30,279
Speaker 2: They're calling again.

808
00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:32,759
Speaker 3: And they asked him after the game, They said, you know, hey,

809
00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:37,400
Speaker 3: you yelled two rings and shut up Baldy. Do you

810
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:39,120
Speaker 3: think that was a good thing to do? And his

811
00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:42,000
Speaker 3: answer was yes, I just wish there were more people

812
00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:45,120
Speaker 3: to hear it because they all left. It's like he

813
00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:48,120
Speaker 3: just doubles down like I On some level, you almost

814
00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:50,279
Speaker 3: have to respect what a jerk he is. It would

815
00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:52,360
Speaker 3: not have worked here, by the way, It just would

816
00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:55,040
Speaker 3: not have worked here. But he is kind of he's

817
00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:57,760
Speaker 3: like the perfect Yukon coach. In some way.

818
00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:00,160
Speaker 4: We need a villain. We need somebody like that in

819
00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:04,360
Speaker 4: college basketball too. We can everybody Duke, North Carolina, Kansas,

820
00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:05,080
Speaker 4: Kentucky all can.

821
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:06,440
Speaker 3: Again. The only thing it would better is if he

822
00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:08,160
Speaker 3: was at Duke, Like if he was doing that stuff

823
00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:10,879
Speaker 3: at Duke, it would be like even more. But Ukon,

824
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:12,920
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, we've you and I've had interactions

825
00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:16,239
Speaker 3: with Yukon punched, like if your goot a dude like

826
00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:18,040
Speaker 3: that is kind of perfect for Yukon.

827
00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:21,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, my original KSR. No, somebody had like Drew's bloody

828
00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:22,879
Speaker 2: lip that's from a Yukon game.

829
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:25,239
Speaker 3: I thought about you. I went to the hockey game.

830
00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:29,120
Speaker 3: So people may not remember this, but many years ago

831
00:37:29,239 --> 00:37:32,080
Speaker 3: Drew and I went to was it Kentucky Yukon Walls

832
00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:32,960
Speaker 3: here a different.

833
00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:35,839
Speaker 2: Year it was the Wall Years Square Garden.

834
00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:38,560
Speaker 3: And if you've ever been to Madison Square Garden for

835
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:41,919
Speaker 3: a modern like for an arena that's historic, the way

836
00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:45,040
Speaker 3: you get up and down is really like old school

837
00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:48,080
Speaker 3: and kind of bizarre. It's like these elevators and it's

838
00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:50,480
Speaker 3: a very condensed space. I mean, you would think you

839
00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:52,319
Speaker 3: were in the like it's you would not think you

840
00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:54,480
Speaker 3: were in the world's most famous arena to get when

841
00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:59,000
Speaker 3: you get up and down and Drew, you got punched

842
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:02,080
Speaker 3: in the crowd, right, and then we were trying to

843
00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:04,560
Speaker 3: walk out, and I think you were still angry about

844
00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:06,759
Speaker 3: having been punched in the crowd, so there was more

845
00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:09,840
Speaker 3: mouthing going on, you know, and you can't get away.

846
00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:12,719
Speaker 3: The problem is you're stuck. Yeah, and there were a

847
00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:15,239
Speaker 3: lot more Yukon fans than there were Kentucky fans. And

848
00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:17,359
Speaker 3: I and you and I hadn't been working together that long.

849
00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:19,440
Speaker 3: At that point. I was there with my roommate, but

850
00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:21,200
Speaker 3: I was with you on the way out, and I

851
00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:24,200
Speaker 3: was like, this dude's gonna get me beat up in

852
00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:26,520
Speaker 3: the middle of mess. Let me defend. I've told this before.

853
00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:28,520
Speaker 2: I was with a young woman and they called her

854
00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:30,560
Speaker 2: something we don't say, and I turned around. I was like, hey, man,

855
00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:32,600
Speaker 2: keep it on me. Don't call her that again. And

856
00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:35,080
Speaker 2: he said, oh blank. And I was like, I wish

857
00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:36,960
Speaker 2: you hadn't have done that. And at that point, me

858
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:39,280
Speaker 2: and my friend we made a decision.

859
00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:43,160
Speaker 3: That may have been how it starts. But later on

860
00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:46,600
Speaker 3: in the on the walkway, I don't know how it started,

861
00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:48,600
Speaker 3: but there were a lot of people yelling, and I

862
00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:50,280
Speaker 3: thought to myself this.

863
00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:52,640
Speaker 2: It wasn't just me. I watched and people there were knowing.

864
00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:54,359
Speaker 2: I've talked to people that I didn't know back then

865
00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:56,759
Speaker 2: that saw it. I watch an elderly man. I don't

866
00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:59,200
Speaker 2: mean someone like fifty, I mean this guy was at

867
00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:02,799
Speaker 2: least seventy five eighty. He got completely sucker punched by

868
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:05,640
Speaker 2: a college kid and just folded him in Madison Square Garden.

869
00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:07,840
Speaker 2: They were in there hitting everybody. There were fights on

870
00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:10,360
Speaker 2: the subway. We saw someone reach in and punch a

871
00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:12,560
Speaker 2: Kentucky fan as the door we're closed, and he took

872
00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:15,319
Speaker 2: off running. That's why I will always hit you konk. So,

873
00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:17,400
Speaker 2: Dandy Hurley is a perfect coach for that group. I

874
00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:19,080
Speaker 2: think he fits in well with him.

875
00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:24,560
Speaker 3: Who's up next, Brian, Go ahead, Brian, Yeah.

876
00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:27,239
Speaker 6: I just want to make a quick comment about Trentonola.

877
00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:30,560
Speaker 6: One of the big things that I absolutely love about

878
00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:34,200
Speaker 6: that guy's game is his effort. He comes in defensively,

879
00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:38,520
Speaker 6: he's in a guarding position clapping, and I think that

880
00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:41,800
Speaker 6: that plays a big row into his defense in the

881
00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:46,040
Speaker 6: offense kind of mentality. And I really think that I'm

882
00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:48,920
Speaker 6: not saying that he takes Kobe Bray's place or anything

883
00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:51,240
Speaker 6: like that, but when they need that energy and that spark,

884
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:54,120
Speaker 6: he's definitely a guy that can help produce that for

885
00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:56,000
Speaker 6: the For this team.

886
00:39:56,760 --> 00:39:58,360
Speaker 3: He's done a great job. I mean, he's done a

887
00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:01,120
Speaker 3: great job. I appreciate the call of the injuries. I

888
00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:04,719
Speaker 3: think really the injury to Carr kind of opened up

889
00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:07,920
Speaker 3: his opportunity to get minutes, and he's been able to

890
00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:12,759
Speaker 3: take it. Let me ask you though about injuries in general, Like,

891
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:16,880
Speaker 3: you know, you heard the comments last night about Robinson

892
00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:19,560
Speaker 3: and Butler. Are you feeling like we will get a

893
00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:21,919
Speaker 3: healthy Robinson and Butler for March.

894
00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:23,759
Speaker 4: I absolutely think they'll be back for March. I don't

895
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:26,080
Speaker 4: think we're gonna see him anytime soon. And we all

896
00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:28,600
Speaker 4: saw what happened to Butler. You know, he was hustle play,

897
00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:31,040
Speaker 4: diving for a loose ball, but then that shoulder kind

898
00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:32,920
Speaker 4: of got twisted up underneath him. Just can tell you

899
00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:34,279
Speaker 4: to tweak it immediately.

900
00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:35,239
Speaker 3: That worries me.

901
00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:37,600
Speaker 4: He may be out for longer than Robinson Robinson's wrist,

902
00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:40,239
Speaker 4: maybe something like after a week. He might be coming back.

903
00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:44,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, as long as I'm at the point now,

904
00:40:44,239 --> 00:40:46,640
Speaker 3: as long as they're here in March, right, as long

905
00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:48,279
Speaker 3: as they're here in March. I mean, I'd love to

906
00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:50,279
Speaker 3: have him in this regular season, but we need him

907
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:55,279
Speaker 3: in March because our ceiling is low without them. I'm

908
00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:56,960
Speaker 3: not saying they can't win a game or two, but

909
00:40:57,080 --> 00:41:00,120
Speaker 3: like we got to have them to be consistently to

910
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:05,880
Speaker 3: get six four straight wins, right, But I did feel

911
00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:09,040
Speaker 3: good that Pope said pretty definitively that he thought they

912
00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:11,480
Speaker 3: would they would be ready in March.

913
00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:13,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree with you of if I need to

914
00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:16,640
Speaker 2: rest and rest, though your tournament seeding is good. Leonardi,

915
00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:18,440
Speaker 2: even before last night, called him a lock. I know

916
00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:21,600
Speaker 2: some Kentucky fans were worried long term. I mean, if

917
00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:23,680
Speaker 2: you got to go to a Missouri or play some

918
00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:26,400
Speaker 2: of these games without them, the March postseason run is

919
00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:27,200
Speaker 2: much more important.

920
00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:31,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I think you're exactly right if you

921
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:33,960
Speaker 3: might say if we played them both, we'd beat Texas,

922
00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:37,319
Speaker 3: But I'd rather take the loss at Texas and keep

923
00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:40,640
Speaker 3: them healthy than risk losing one of them for the

924
00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:42,799
Speaker 3: year to try to win that game. I think the

925
00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:45,880
Speaker 3: South Carolina game was a must win. You know, maybe

926
00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:48,600
