1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:04,760
Speaker 1: Welcome everyone. It is the Local Toy Dealers KSR postgame show.

2
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:09,320
Speaker 1: I met Jones. The Cats lose in Austin thirty four seventeen.

3
00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:12,319
Speaker 1: You can give a shout if I'm nine two eight

4
00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:14,240
Speaker 1: oh twenty two eighty seven.

5
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:15,080
Speaker 2: Uh.

6
00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:19,240
Speaker 1: The game tonight was, you know, kind of a microcosm

7
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:22,560
Speaker 1: of the season. Some good moments, some good things, a

8
00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:26,279
Speaker 1: lot of bad things, bad breaks. Tucky shoots itself in

9
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:29,080
Speaker 1: the foot some and ends up coming away with a

10
00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:33,240
Speaker 1: seventeen point loss, which, honestly, if you watch the entire game,

11
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:36,600
Speaker 1: that kind of felt like about what the spread should

12
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:39,880
Speaker 1: have been, even though it was weird. Kentucky once again

13
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:43,080
Speaker 1: had a first and goal inside the five and was

14
00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:47,280
Speaker 1: not able to score. They ended up with a field

15
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:49,360
Speaker 1: goal that they missed, but then they immediately got a

16
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:52,680
Speaker 1: touchdown on a you know what ended up being not

17
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 1: a pick six but a fumble and got it right back.

18
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 1: So it was just one thing right after the other,

19
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 1: good fall by, bad fall by, good fall by, bad

20
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:06,479
Speaker 1: Cats end up losing. They're now going to finish SEC

21
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 1: Play one in seven and a very disappointing season. I

22
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:15,200
Speaker 1: was sitting here kind of looking at the standings and

23
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:20,759
Speaker 1: a and m right now is losing at Auburn, and

24
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,200
Speaker 1: I was thinking about, you know, Penn State and Indiana

25
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 1: both lost today and long story short, if then and

26
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 1: this could happen, if if Tennessee were to lose to

27
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:38,319
Speaker 1: to Vandy, or if Alabama were to lose to to Auburn,

28
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:45,039
Speaker 1: Like there's a world where a three loss SEC team makes, uh,

29
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 1: you know, makes the playoff. And I was sitting there thinking,

30
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 1: Kentucky what probably has the hardest strength of schedule of

31
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 1: any of the teams in the SEC, just by the

32
00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 1: nature of who they ended up drawing this year. And

33
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 1: like those games Billy that at the start of the

34
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 1: year we talked about us being able to potentially win

35
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:09,079
Speaker 1: South Carolina line of Florida, Auburn, Vandy. You of course

36
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 1: lost them all, but because they beat Old Miss, like,

37
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 1: there's a world where Kentucky fans could go, well, that

38
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:18,080
Speaker 1: could have been us. Now, obviously we weren't close to

39
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:23,320
Speaker 1: winning those games, but it sort of also highlights what

40
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:28,799
Speaker 1: a disappointment this year is. And Kentucky probably played its

41
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 1: four best games this year in the SEC against against

42
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 1: the four hardest teams. This was not their best game,

43
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:38,639
Speaker 1: but it was better than they played against Auburn, Vandy, Florida,

44
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 1: and South Carolina. Probably it's it's very unfortunate to take

45
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:47,919
Speaker 1: this loss. This is not the end of it. It's

46
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:51,240
Speaker 1: just an example of what Kentucky sort of dealt with

47
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 1: all season. If there's any hope from the game, it's

48
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 1: that Cutter Bowley played well. I think this goes contrary

49
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 1: to what I said last week, but I think after

50
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 1: today Cutter should probably start in that final game against Louisville.

51
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,240
Speaker 1: I said, you know, Louisville's beatable this year, so you

52
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:13,639
Speaker 1: need to play the guy who gives you the best

53
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,160
Speaker 1: chance to win. I think after watching the second half,

54
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 1: Cutter Bowley probably gives you gives you the best chance

55
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 1: to win. And I think, more fundamentally, whether they decide

56
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 1: to start Cutter or Brock going into this Louisville game,

57
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:30,240
Speaker 1: I think next year, you know, the future of Vander

58
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 1: Griff at Kentucky is very much up in the air.

59
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 1: Whether whatever you do. I mean, in some ways, what

60
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 1: Mark Stoops is gonna decide by the game Saturday might

61
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 1: be his decision for next season. I think if you

62
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 1: start Cutter Bowley Saturday, you're all but committing to not

63
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 1: bringing back Brock Vandergriff next year. And if you start Brock, well,

64
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 1: then the question would be are you just sitting Cutter

65
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 1: next year? What? Almost whatever you do Saturday is probably

66
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 1: what you're gonna do next season. So that's a weird spot.

67
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 1: But Brock has had eleven games and it's just not happened.

68
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 1: And Cutter wasn't perfect today, but we saw flashes and

69
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 1: he made quicker decisions and probably gives you more upside

70
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 1: because the reality is he's got three more years. There's

71
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:26,239
Speaker 1: also the fact that I believe Billy Cutter's played four games?

72
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:27,240
Speaker 1: Am I right about that?

73
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:31,279
Speaker 3: I think it's three?

74
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:36,600
Speaker 1: He only played three, played against Murray Florida, he played tonight.

75
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:38,240
Speaker 1: Did he get in in another game?

76
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:39,480
Speaker 3: That's the three I'm counting.

77
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,479
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, if that's the case, then he could play

78
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:47,479
Speaker 1: against Louisville and not burn a red shirt. I thought

79
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 1: he had played four, at which point playing against Louisville

80
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 1: would burn it. So if he's only played three, then

81
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 1: that would take that part of the decision making out.

82
00:04:57,800 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 1: Maybe we can confirm that's the case, because I do

83
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:01,800
Speaker 1: think if he played four, then that's an even more

84
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:08,160
Speaker 1: difficult decision. But regardless, a disappointing season, and more fundamentally,

85
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:14,279
Speaker 1: you know, going into this Louisville game Saturday. Next Saturday,

86
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,680
Speaker 1: we're gonna play Louville, and then that next week, which

87
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:21,840
Speaker 1: is the first week of December, will be maybe one

88
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,760
Speaker 1: of the most hectic weeks college football has ever seen

89
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 1: across the country and here specifically, right on top of

90
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:32,039
Speaker 1: each other. You're gonna have the coaching change season, the

91
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:36,480
Speaker 1: transfer portal and signing day is December fifth, So you're

92
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:40,920
Speaker 1: gonna have a week of a lot of stuff happening quickly.

93
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:48,839
Speaker 1: So Mark Stoopes, whatever's gonna happen after that is gonna

94
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 1: happen quick Now, all indications are he wants to come back.

95
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 1: What I would say is I'm okay with that in theory,

96
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,760
Speaker 1: but I need to hear over the course of the

97
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:07,719
Speaker 1: next week and after the Louisville game, a coach who's

98
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:11,920
Speaker 1: not just complaining about what's wrong with college football and

99
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:15,599
Speaker 1: what's wrong with society, because that's what I've heard for

100
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:22,680
Speaker 1: the last year is how much we gotta raise money

101
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 1: and that stinks, and we gotta do this and it stinks,

102
00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 1: and I don't like doing this, and it stinks and

103
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 1: he's the grumpy old man kind of yelling at the clouds, saying,

104
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:36,680
Speaker 1: back in my day it was different. Well, it's not

105
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 1: your day anymore. It's this day, and this day is

106
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 1: gonna look even more different in a year. And I

107
00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 1: need to hear a guy who wants to embrace that

108
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 1: Bush Hampden. It's not been a great year with him

109
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:56,160
Speaker 1: as OC. I think if Mark comes back, they're gonna

110
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 1: bring him back just because they can't have another offensive coordinator.

111
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 1: That would be seven years in a row with a

112
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:04,719
Speaker 1: different offensive coordinator six. I don't think they can do

113
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 1: that either. So he's gonna have to convince this fan base,

114
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 1: and he's gonna have to convince, at least for me

115
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: as a fan, that this is a dude who sees

116
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,120
Speaker 1: what's coming and is ready to be part of the

117
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 1: future of it For Kentucky. I'm gonna admit, like he's

118
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 1: gonna that's gonna take some selling from him to do.

119
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 1: And he's gonna have to convince the roster, and he's

120
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 1: gonna have to convince the boosters, and he's gonna have

121
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:34,080
Speaker 1: to convince the fans, and he's gonna have to convince

122
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 1: recruits and he's gonna have to convince the people in

123
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:41,640
Speaker 1: the portal. If I'm Mark, I sit here and think

124
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 1: about this next week, because it's gonna happen quick after

125
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:48,640
Speaker 1: the Louisville game, win or lose. Is this what I

126
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 1: wanna do? Is this what I wanna do? And if

127
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:56,400
Speaker 1: the answer is yes, that I'm in, I'll be there

128
00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:59,560
Speaker 1: saying let's go and I'll be doing what I can do.

129
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:04,480
Speaker 1: But if you're not all in, then I don't think

130
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,600
Speaker 1: you should do it, because the last thirteen or fourteen

131
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:14,800
Speaker 1: months of complaining about the state of college football just

132
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 1: didn't gonna work. It is what it is. John Wayne

133
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 1: is not coming back to star in a blockbuster picture

134
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 1: next Christmas or next summer. Right. Seinfeld's not on TV anymore.

135
00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:36,440
Speaker 1: You can't buy CDs at the CD store. This is

136
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 1: college football today. If you don't like it, nobody's making

137
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 1: you do it. But if you're gonna do it, it's time

138
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 1: to adjust. So we don't have a season like the

139
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 1: one we just had. There's a lot of teams that

140
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:57,599
Speaker 1: started poorly and finished differently. Florida started what O and

141
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:00,800
Speaker 1: flat five right or one in four maybe oh to five?

142
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 1: They just beat Old miss today and they're going to

143
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 1: go to a bowl. Amazingly, Auburn was awful at the

144
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 1: beginning of the year, lost to cow They're up twenty

145
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:16,720
Speaker 1: one to nothing right now in Texas A and m

146
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:24,000
Speaker 1: Vandy lost to Georgia State in week two, beat Alabama

147
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:30,720
Speaker 1: leading LSU on the road. Right now, and we have

148
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 1: seen a season that was disappointing, wimper and get slowly

149
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:40,720
Speaker 1: worse all year to where we're the second worst team

150
00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:45,720
Speaker 1: in the SEC. Only Mississippi State is worse. And we

151
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 1: go into a game against Louisville where they had a

152
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:53,400
Speaker 1: tragically disappointing loss last week and came back and won

153
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:56,439
Speaker 1: thirty seven to nine against the Pitt team that looked

154
00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 1: like they were headed to the ACC Championship a couple

155
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:04,000
Speaker 1: weeks ago. It is hard to be optimistic about the

156
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:09,240
Speaker 1: future as it is. And for Mark Stoops, in my opinion,

157
00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:14,240
Speaker 1: he's got a week to get his mindset right so

158
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 1: that whatever happens after that Louisville game, if we beat

159
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:19,920
Speaker 1: him like we've done the last five or six years,

160
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 1: if we lose at home to him for the first

161
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:29,520
Speaker 1: time in a long time, whatever it is, if he

162
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 1: wants to go forward. He's got to make a plan

163
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:38,160
Speaker 1: of action, be definitive, stop whining about what college football

164
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 1: is today, and lead Kentucky into the next generation. If

165
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 1: he can't do that, then it might be best if

166
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:49,679
Speaker 1: we do different things. Only he knows the answer to

167
00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:54,400
Speaker 1: that Tuck. He's not go firing. I have a hard

168
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,800
Speaker 1: time believing he just walks away and leaves all that

169
00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:03,360
Speaker 1: money on the table without having another So he's got

170
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,960
Speaker 1: to decide. Is this for him? It's up to him.

171
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:11,520
Speaker 1: He could do it, I think, But the last sixteen

172
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,400
Speaker 1: months of the Stoops are really going back to last season.

173
00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:18,440
Speaker 1: It's not gonna happen if that Mark Stoops is the

174
00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,680
Speaker 1: Mark Stoops that comes out of that game against Louisville

175
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 1: on Saturday eight five, twenty two eighty seven. Love to

176
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:30,840
Speaker 1: hear your thoughts on today. Uh, you're are you excited

177
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:32,599
Speaker 1: about cutter bowlie for the future? Am? What do you

178
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:34,440
Speaker 1: think about what I just said? Do you agree with that?

179
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:38,160
Speaker 1: Disagree with it? I'm here with Billy right now. Auburn

180
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:41,560
Speaker 1: up twenty one nothing against A and M. A and

181
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,400
Speaker 1: M may end up playing themselves out of the playoffs

182
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:47,160
Speaker 1: on the planes tonight. We'll see, We'll take a break

183
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:49,840
Speaker 1: and be right back. It's a Local Toy Dealers KSR

184
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 1: postgame show. Welcme back. It is the Local Toy Dealers

185
00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 1: KSR postgame show. You know, sometimes on on the text machine,

186
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:03,400
Speaker 1: you do get a sense, Billy of how people hear

187
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,839
Speaker 1: what they want to hear. All right, Mark Soop's been

188
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,720
Speaker 1: here probably what has he been here?

189
00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 3: Twelve twelve?

190
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:16,280
Speaker 1: I think without question that was probably my harshest segment

191
00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:20,280
Speaker 1: during his twelve years commentary about his coaching. Would you

192
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:20,880
Speaker 1: agree with that?

193
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:22,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I'd say that's pretty close.

194
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:28,480
Speaker 1: I think that's probably true. You know, but it's also

195
00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 1: how I feel like I'm not I'm not taking a

196
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,160
Speaker 1: shot or not taking I mean, it's just how I feel.

197
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 1: And I get a message it says you putting your

198
00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 1: stake in Mark Stoops is not a good business strategy.

199
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:41,600
Speaker 1: Don't know how you could say that. Where did I

200
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:45,240
Speaker 1: just put my stakes in Mark Stupents? Literally this, I

201
00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 1: mean literally, that's what you took from from that conversation.

202
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:51,320
Speaker 1: It just goes to show like people will just hear

203
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 1: what they want to hear. Yeah, what person rights? What

204
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:58,720
Speaker 1: person rights? Matt, We've got fire Stoops. There's no doubt

205
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:03,720
Speaker 1: every fan I know what's him gone, everyone, every single

206
00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 1: one of them. I don't think that's true. Well maybe

207
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,559
Speaker 1: everyone you know, but every fan does it. But I

208
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:13,719
Speaker 1: would also say you got the money because it's a

209
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:17,120
Speaker 1: lot of money, a lot of money, and the people

210
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 1: that would pay that money are not the people that

211
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:22,720
Speaker 1: woun't have gone, So where are you gonna get it?

212
00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,520
Speaker 1: The people that would pay bouts like that, the people

213
00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:29,959
Speaker 1: that contemplated by paying byouts like that with John cal

214
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,080
Speaker 1: Perry didn't end up doing. Just to think about John

215
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,599
Speaker 1: cal Perry, think about how done this fan base was

216
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:38,839
Speaker 1: with John cal Perry. They couldn't they couldn't raise the

217
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 1: money to fire him. So and the boosters didn't even

218
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 1: like him. They like Mark. So I just don't know

219
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 1: where people think. I mean, that's a fantasy world. This

220
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 1: is gonna be Mark's decision. I'm living in the real world.

221
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:57,199
Speaker 1: You can live in the fantasy world that you could

222
00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:00,840
Speaker 1: dismiss him. I live in the real world, which is

223
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 1: he is either gonna decide himself to go or I

224
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,079
Speaker 1: guess there's a world where they could do like some

225
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:10,600
Speaker 1: kind of mutual buyout, But I have not heard that

226
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:14,920
Speaker 1: that's gonna happen. Who knows anything can happen. But like

227
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:17,080
Speaker 1: the day, you can't the idea that you're gonna fire him.

228
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:18,920
Speaker 1: I just don't know where you think that money's gonna

229
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,280
Speaker 1: come from? The money tree? Like it's just I don't

230
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,840
Speaker 1: know where that would exist. All right, who's up first?

231
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 3: Skyler?

232
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 1: Skyler? Go ahead, Skyler?

233
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:31,600
Speaker 4: Hey, Matt, Hey, Billy. A couple of things. Can I

234
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:33,920
Speaker 4: make a comment and ask a question? First is I

235
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:36,000
Speaker 4: may be in the minority. I do not want Mark

236
00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:37,960
Speaker 4: Stoops to go. I think he's built a good culture,

237
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 4: and I think cutter bully stepping in to day renewed

238
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:45,480
Speaker 4: a little hope for the future. I thought his swagger, moxie,

239
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 4: command and everything was great.

240
00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 1: I agree with that. By the way it is, it

241
00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 1: is a way to feel some confidence after that game.

242
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:55,240
Speaker 1: I mean, there was I think for a lot of

243
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 1: people a sense of okay, now maybe you have something here.

244
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:02,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, and you know, I don't know. I don't know

245
00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:05,120
Speaker 4: where you think the offensive line went wrong. I feel

246
00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:08,360
Speaker 4: bad for Brock because he's just had no coverage. And

247
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 4: maybe it's not that we need somebody really quick, really

248
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:15,080
Speaker 4: witty back there. But but I don't know did Zack

249
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 4: Yinser just not do his job for however long he

250
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:19,400
Speaker 4: was Is that what happened.

251
00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:22,520
Speaker 1: I think it's a combination, so buil going forward. I

252
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 1: think it's a combination of a couple things. And I

253
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,720
Speaker 1: appreciate the call. I think there are people who would

254
00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 1: tell you that starting two or like three or four

255
00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:36,080
Speaker 1: years ago, Freddie always used to say this, we got

256
00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:40,520
Speaker 1: away from really giving the young guys reps and developing

257
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:43,360
Speaker 1: depths so that when people left they could be replaced,

258
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 1: and that we lost and then we were probably missed

259
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 1: on recruiting in a couple of years with offensive linemen,

260
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 1: and so we had like two years where our big

261
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:57,600
Speaker 1: blue wall system kind of got off track. Then if

262
00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 1: you ask people around the program, they'll say that the

263
00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:04,840
Speaker 1: guy last year was a disaster. I mean that's that's

264
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:08,080
Speaker 1: generally what people believe. And then it all culminates this

265
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 1: year where you bring in a couple of transfers, they

266
00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 1: don't really work, you don't have depth. Some of the

267
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:18,720
Speaker 1: guys that you thought would be your star warts just

268
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:23,280
Speaker 1: kind of were disappointing, and it led to a disaster.

269
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 1: I think it's the worst offensive line I can remember.

270
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 1: I mean I'm sure maybe during Mark's first or second

271
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:31,880
Speaker 1: year it was worse, maybe years past that, but I

272
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:35,240
Speaker 1: can't remember a worse offensive line. I remember plenty of

273
00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:40,120
Speaker 1: worse receivers, quarterbacks, defenses. I don't remember a worse offensive

274
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:44,120
Speaker 1: line than this one, especially passing running and it's been okay,

275
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:46,680
Speaker 1: but from pass protection, it's the worst one we've had.

276
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:48,640
Speaker 1: So it's hard to You're right, I don't know about

277
00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:54,880
Speaker 1: with Brock, Like, I don't know, but I think, however

278
00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 1: good Brock is or isn't. It just seemed to me

279
00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:01,600
Speaker 1: you got a better spark with Cutter, and he's your future,

280
00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:05,240
Speaker 1: so like we might as well go on. By the way,

281
00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:07,159
Speaker 1: You're right, Billy, he's only played three games, so the

282
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:10,320
Speaker 1: red shirt question would not come into effect in deciding

283
00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:10,920
Speaker 1: who to play.

284
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I've seen enough of Brock. I mean, it's

285
00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:15,719
Speaker 3: time to start Cutter. He is the future. There's no

286
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:17,440
Speaker 3: doubt in my mind.

287
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:22,919
Speaker 1: Well, Billy has spoken, it has been decided. You said

288
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:28,680
Speaker 1: that so definitively, Well, I, Billy are sports. Yeah, I've

289
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:35,720
Speaker 1: seen enough. Jimmy, Jimmy, go ahead, Jimmy.

290
00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 5: Hey, Jimmy loves you guys, But Jimmy seconds Billy's statement,

291
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:46,879
Speaker 5: Uh yeah, Brocks Brock, Bye bye Brock. But Matt, really,

292
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:49,520
Speaker 5: I'm just I'm just so confused. I don't I started

293
00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:53,240
Speaker 5: the season so optimistic, so hopeful, got season tickets for

294
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:56,399
Speaker 5: the first time in my life, and then you know,

295
00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:59,439
Speaker 5: things happen and I just got really sad, and then

296
00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:01,560
Speaker 5: we beat over and I was like, yeah, here we go,

297
00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:03,360
Speaker 5: all right, and then you know.

298
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:06,080
Speaker 6: Now I just I don't even know how to feel anymore.

299
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:10,040
Speaker 1: Man Well, I would say, all right, so you're really

300
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:13,480
Speaker 1: disappointed by the game against South Carolina. We all are.

301
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,440
Speaker 1: But then you're right, beat Old Miss. We go beat

302
00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:19,160
Speaker 1: Old Miss in some ways, you kind of get that,

303
00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:22,240
Speaker 1: you get that game back in some ways by winning

304
00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:24,359
Speaker 1: that one, because I don't think most people thought we'd win. Now,

305
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,560
Speaker 1: I mean that the definitive and I appreciate the call.

306
00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:31,800
Speaker 1: The definitive series of the year is Vandy Florida. All

307
00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 1: and probably we'll look back and say the Vandy game

308
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,000
Speaker 1: is the definitive game of the year. They come in

309
00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:41,639
Speaker 1: there and they beat you, and they beat you, right

310
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:43,520
Speaker 1: if they beat Alabama, so there should have been no

311
00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 1: like surprise, and they didn't beat you, fluky, They just

312
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:51,719
Speaker 1: outplayed you and you got out played for the second

313
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:57,080
Speaker 1: time in three years by Vandy at home. And that's

314
00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:59,040
Speaker 1: I think when the fan base said, yeah, I don't know,

315
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:03,280
Speaker 1: I don't know, and I think that's where they still

316
00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:07,119
Speaker 1: are right now. And you know we had first collar

317
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:13,639
Speaker 1: still support stoops second one. I don't know, But you

318
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:15,800
Speaker 1: can't lose the bandy at home two out of three years.

319
00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:21,760
Speaker 1: You just can't. By the way, eight sec games, ten

320
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:25,400
Speaker 1: offensive touchdowns.

321
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:26,440
Speaker 3: That doesn't even sound real.

322
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:31,920
Speaker 1: I mean that's brutal. Eight games, ten touchdowns. Like con

323
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:36,440
Speaker 1: we're the only Power five team in America that didn't

324
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:38,480
Speaker 1: score twenty one points in a conference game.

325
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:42,159
Speaker 3: And you're gonna bring the offensive coordinator.

326
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:46,680
Speaker 1: Back, well, but can you change it again? I mean,

327
00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:49,960
Speaker 1: you know it's and at some point, how do we

328
00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:53,760
Speaker 1: keep blaming these offensive coordinators? How many people do we

329
00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:57,520
Speaker 1: have to send packing from here before we stopped to

330
00:19:57,560 --> 00:19:59,320
Speaker 1: start thinking maybe it's not their fault.

331
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:01,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I don't they're gonna fire the offensive line

332
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:03,160
Speaker 3: coach either. They just brought him back.

333
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:05,680
Speaker 1: But you know what I mean, Like, I'm not saying

334
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:11,320
Speaker 1: Bush Hampden has looked great, but like, how you know

335
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,480
Speaker 1: we did this to Eddie Graham. We did this to

336
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:18,399
Speaker 1: Rick Skangaillo. We did this in some ways to Liam

337
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:20,399
Speaker 1: who left on his own. But people didn't love his

338
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:23,399
Speaker 1: second time around either. Really, the only time people have

339
00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:25,520
Speaker 1: ever been happy was the first year Liam.

340
00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:27,560
Speaker 3: And Eddie, the Linn Bowden year.

341
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:32,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, but people were done with Eddie every and and

342
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:36,800
Speaker 1: all Eddie did was win, you know. I mean I

343
00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:38,600
Speaker 1: was too. I was kind of done with Eddie, and

344
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:41,280
Speaker 1: I now you sit there and go, Eddie. We won

345
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:44,920
Speaker 1: every We won every year Eddie was was the coordinator.

346
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 3: So here's here's one more thing. Five times in the

347
00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:51,200
Speaker 3: last six games, Kentucky's gotten inside the five yard line

348
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 3: and gotten no points.

349
00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:54,960
Speaker 1: I know, six times on the air. Five times in

350
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:59,120
Speaker 1: the last six game. That's brutal. I mean, they but

351
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,640
Speaker 1: part of it is they can't do anything on third

352
00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:04,159
Speaker 1: and short, fourth and short. They just think they you know,

353
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:07,200
Speaker 1: we took for granted in the Bennie and Chris Rodriguez

354
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:10,000
Speaker 1: years that they could just hand it off on third

355
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,359
Speaker 1: and one and we'd get the first down. And that

356
00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:14,359
Speaker 1: just can't. We just can't do that. And it's not

357
00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:17,399
Speaker 1: only it's the running backs fault, our offensive line, the middle,

358
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:24,320
Speaker 1: our two tackles, cannot block anyone in pass protection, and

359
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:27,800
Speaker 1: the interior of our line can god get any push

360
00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:31,800
Speaker 1: on runs up the middle, And like, what are you

361
00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:34,320
Speaker 1: gonna do? I mean, we're left having to run gadget

362
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 1: plays and we're clearly not very good at those either.

363
00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:45,360
Speaker 1: So who's next, Isaac, Isaac, go ahead, Isaac, Hey.

364
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:49,240
Speaker 2: I got a couple of things. First off, I'm sure

365
00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:52,359
Speaker 2: people have seen this that, but it's the first time

366
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 2: since then ten nineteen eighty two UK team that we

367
00:21:57,320 --> 00:21:59,560
Speaker 2: have non score run of twenty points in an SEC

368
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:03,000
Speaker 2: game in the season. So that's pretty bad.

369
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:04,800
Speaker 1: That's pretty bad. Yep.

370
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:12,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, And then whatever happens is fine as long as

371
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:15,960
Speaker 2: Eric Wulford is fired as soon as the level game

372
00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:19,199
Speaker 2: is up next week. I think, did you get it

373
00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 2: to him? Stoop stays that's fine. It's been an absolute

374
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:27,920
Speaker 2: disaster with him under the offensive line.

375
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:30,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I know what you mean. I just

376
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:33,920
Speaker 1: don't know if that'll happen. We'll see, but I don't

377
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:35,920
Speaker 1: know if that would happen. I also know I appreciate

378
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:39,520
Speaker 1: the call. Boise State and Wyoming Billy right now are

379
00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:44,120
Speaker 1: tied at ten. If Wolming we're to win that game,

380
00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:49,760
Speaker 1: especially now that Armies getting dismantled as by the way,

381
00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:53,160
Speaker 1: I told you they would Billy. You know who would

382
00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:57,640
Speaker 1: get the probably the non Power five birth Tu Lane,

383
00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:02,040
Speaker 1: Tu Lane. And if you think John it's gonna be

384
00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:04,639
Speaker 1: available if Tu Lane goes to playoff, the answer is

385
00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:08,880
Speaker 1: gonna be no. So that's another thing to watch. I mean,

386
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:12,639
Speaker 1: we're one half away from John Summer all likely finding

387
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:16,639
Speaker 1: his way into the into the playoffs. Not saying just

388
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:17,880
Speaker 1: say who's.

389
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:19,680
Speaker 3: Next, Let's go to Dave.

390
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:21,440
Speaker 1: Dave, go ahead, Dave.

391
00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:25,840
Speaker 7: Hey, Matt, first time caller here, who are what's up?

392
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,879
Speaker 7: Just want I just wanted to say, man, I'm just

393
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:32,560
Speaker 7: like the previous caller, first time having season tickets thanks

394
00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:36,080
Speaker 7: to my awesome brother Jim. And it was an incredible

395
00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:38,399
Speaker 7: time at that Georgia game, being in that atmosphere and

396
00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:42,440
Speaker 7: just it was unbelievable and I was hooked. And it's

397
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:45,560
Speaker 7: been so discouraging to see so many penalties. I lost

398
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:49,359
Speaker 7: count this season of big plays and penalties happening and

399
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:51,520
Speaker 7: wiping out those big plays, and I'm sure that has

400
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 7: to be discouraging to the team, the people that made

401
00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:54,280
Speaker 7: those plays.

402
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:59,360
Speaker 1: Man, I mean, brutal penalties brutal holds and then today,

403
00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:02,600
Speaker 1: I mean I wouldn't I wouldn't have called it because

404
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:05,160
Speaker 1: I think of time and setting, they shouldn't have called it.

405
00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 1: But what is Max harriston a scene you're doing smacking

406
00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:11,119
Speaker 1: a dude? Nay, I know somebody hit you, But like

407
00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 1: you know, we'd stopped them. They were stopped, they were

408
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:17,679
Speaker 1: gonna have to take a field goal, and then they

409
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:19,320
Speaker 1: get a first time score on the next play.

410
00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:22,360
Speaker 7: I just want to I want to believe in Stoops

411
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:24,919
Speaker 7: and I like your opening monologue, but is he the

412
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,600
Speaker 7: coach that can take this to the to the next

413
00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:29,840
Speaker 7: level of nil and all that stuff? But what's been

414
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:34,440
Speaker 7: disappointing is just the discipline of the team and the penalties,

415
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:36,560
Speaker 7: and it's been so discouraging. And I want to believe

416
00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:38,840
Speaker 7: in Stoops, But like you said, is he gonna be

417
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 7: is he gonna embrace this next this name.

418
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:42,680
Speaker 1: Where you just asked me, is he gonna be able

419
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:44,400
Speaker 1: to let me ask you, let me kind of throw

420
00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:46,320
Speaker 1: it back to you. Do you think he's able.

421
00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:50,879
Speaker 7: To now it's the last few months of just complaining.

422
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:52,480
Speaker 7: I just feel like he's burned out. I feel like,

423
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:56,240
Speaker 7: as my brother said it, feels like cow without the arrogance.

424
00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:58,480
Speaker 7: And that's kind of how it feels like he's just

425
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:01,480
Speaker 7: burned out. But if he's not, and if he wants

426
00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:03,800
Speaker 7: to be into this, which you know, he's the football

427
00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:06,800
Speaker 7: coach and he built this program, I just I want

428
00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:08,840
Speaker 7: to believe in him. But I'm just listening to him

429
00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:11,120
Speaker 7: talk and watching how he acts, and I'm just like, man,

430
00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:13,920
Speaker 7: can he do it? I don't know.

431
00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 1: You know, he's right, he's not arrogant like like cal,

432
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:20,439
Speaker 1: He's not off. I appreciate the call. He's not like

433
00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:23,119
Speaker 1: sitting here saying I know much so much more than

434
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:27,520
Speaker 1: you guys. But dude, you got to be into this.

435
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:32,160
Speaker 1: Like the day you say, the day you're not excited

436
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:35,320
Speaker 1: to get up and do your job, especially when it's

437
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 1: a job that like you don't have to do because

438
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:40,240
Speaker 1: you don't have to be the coach here, Like why

439
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:46,359
Speaker 1: like then, why are you doing it? You know that's

440
00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:49,639
Speaker 1: I had somebody in radio who's now no longer in

441
00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:54,320
Speaker 1: radio say to me, the day Matt you start disliking

442
00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:57,640
Speaker 1: doing it, you owe it to the listeners to get out.

443
00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:01,080
Speaker 1: And I've always thought of that. I mean, I still

444
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:03,800
Speaker 1: love doing it, but the day that Mark is like

445
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:06,600
Speaker 1: I don't want to do this, then he not needs

446
00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:09,199
Speaker 1: to not not do it. And the discipline has been

447
00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 1: awful this year. I mean, discipline has been an issue

448
00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:14,199
Speaker 1: the whole Stoops era. Hisse teams have usually been so

449
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,399
Speaker 1: good and worked so hard that they've been able to

450
00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:19,240
Speaker 1: kind of get over it, but it's been this year especially,

451
00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 1: it's just been terrible the discipline. The discipline problems on

452
00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:24,479
Speaker 1: this team this year, not off the field, but just

453
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:27,919
Speaker 1: like the way they play have just been constant. And

454
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:30,840
Speaker 1: then the other issue is holding, which is really just

455
00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:35,080
Speaker 1: a talent issue more than anything else. Who's next, j DJ,

456
00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:35,760
Speaker 1: What's up?

457
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:38,440
Speaker 8: What's up?

458
00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:38,800
Speaker 2: Matt?

459
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:39,239
Speaker 6: What's up?

460
00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:42,240
Speaker 9: Billy thinks for taking my call? Shout out to Gavin

461
00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:43,879
Speaker 9: last night. He killed it, went to high school with him.

462
00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:46,879
Speaker 9: He's a great, great guy. But with that being said,

463
00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 9: you know you were talking about Mark stoops selling point

464
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:54,040
Speaker 9: earlier in the in the show, and I think his

465
00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 9: selling point is is cutter Bowllie. Because he's a young talent.

466
00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:00,480
Speaker 9: Maybe you go to your superstars try to get you know,

467
00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:02,560
Speaker 9: Dankey to stay. If you can, I doubt doubt it.

468
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:05,159
Speaker 9: But if you can get bury On to stay, you

469
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:06,320
Speaker 9: know keep people from transferring.

470
00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:08,159
Speaker 1: Let me ask you a question if you were burry On.

471
00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:12,280
Speaker 1: If you were Burryon, would you stay? Be honest, you're

472
00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:15,080
Speaker 1: burying you got one year left to play. You got

473
00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:16,720
Speaker 1: one year yet to play. You could have gone to

474
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:22,880
Speaker 1: college anywhere in America. You decided to come here. You've

475
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:28,320
Speaker 1: got mark, you got what a true freshman now will

476
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:32,000
Speaker 1: be a sophomore quarterback likely be in your quarterback. You

477
00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:35,199
Speaker 1: have the opportunity, I'm sure he will to go to

478
00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:39,879
Speaker 1: a top ten program. If you were Burrying Brown, would

479
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:40,399
Speaker 1: you stay?

480
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:45,000
Speaker 9: So that's hard for me because I'm I'm born and

481
00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:45,760
Speaker 9: raised in Kentucky.

482
00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 1: So but let's say you weren't because he wasn't. So

483
00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:50,720
Speaker 1: let's say you weren't. That's from Nashville.

484
00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:55,200
Speaker 9: If I put my mind setting the barry On, I'll

485
00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:55,719
Speaker 9: probably leave.

486
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:58,640
Speaker 1: To be honest with you, Yeah, And I think that's

487
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:01,800
Speaker 1: the problem that's gonna be the problem is you're gonna

488
00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:04,800
Speaker 1: have a lot of kids out there who are deciding

489
00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:10,480
Speaker 1: they have a year left, and they've got to decide

490
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 1: whether this is the place I could you know the freshman.

491
00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:17,800
Speaker 1: If stoops is all in the freshman, that's an easier

492
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:21,000
Speaker 1: sell I actually think, but for the seniors and the

493
00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:23,560
Speaker 1: transfer guys, I just think it's gonna be a tougher sell.

494
00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:28,640
Speaker 9: Right. And then I have one question too as well,

495
00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:31,200
Speaker 9: if I may, but if we would have started Cutter

496
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:32,719
Speaker 9: all year, do you think our season would have been

497
00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:34,960
Speaker 9: better or worse? And I'll hang up, listen and thank

498
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:35,240
Speaker 9: you guys.

499
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:36,880
Speaker 1: I don't know if it could have been much worse.

500
00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:39,600
Speaker 1: I appreciate the call, you know, don't I don't know

501
00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:42,400
Speaker 1: that it would have necessarily been It's hard to say.

502
00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:46,680
Speaker 1: I mean, like he's played. I kind of throw the

503
00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:49,280
Speaker 1: Murray game out so that at that point what we've

504
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 1: seen he threw six passes against Florida, no completions, and

505
00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:59,800
Speaker 1: then this half, so like I don't know, I will

506
00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:05,640
Speaker 1: say there's clearly a spark there. And my reason last

507
00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:08,720
Speaker 1: week for saying play Brock the last two games is

508
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:13,160
Speaker 1: he gives you the best chance to win. Okay, Now

509
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:17,360
Speaker 1: I can't say that with confidence. So now I'm not

510
00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:19,400
Speaker 1: sure who gives you the best chance to win, and

511
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:23,120
Speaker 1: I probably maybe even slightly lean towards Cutter. Well, if

512
00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:27,440
Speaker 1: that's the case, and Cutter is your future, then just

513
00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:31,280
Speaker 1: go ahead and play Cutter that's that's kind of the

514
00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:34,120
Speaker 1: way I look at it. But the reality is, if

515
00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:37,760
Speaker 1: you start Cutter Saturday, Billy, don't you agree If he

516
00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:41,440
Speaker 1: starts Cutter Saturday, the Brock era is over now at

517
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:42,800
Speaker 1: the end of the year. I think he has to.

518
00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:49,120
Speaker 1: So it is kind of crazy, like you're deciding who's

519
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:52,000
Speaker 1: going to be your quarterback next year, probably in who

520
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:55,920
Speaker 1: you play Saturday, because if you say you're if you

521
00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:59,160
Speaker 1: think Cutters better to win Saturday than Brock against your

522
00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:02,440
Speaker 1: rival in a game you could still win, then you're

523
00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:05,160
Speaker 1: basically telling Brock you're not gonna start next year, at

524
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:06,200
Speaker 1: which point he's gonna leave.

525
00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:11,120
Speaker 3: So you know, Brock's just gotten worse as the season's

526
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:13,400
Speaker 3: gone on. I mean, I've been rooting for I.

527
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,200
Speaker 1: Think he's kind of beat up. Yeah, I think our

528
00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:17,760
Speaker 1: offensive line is awful.

529
00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:19,520
Speaker 3: I will give them the benefit of doubt. The helmet

530
00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:22,600
Speaker 3: communication didn't seem to be working in the game early on,

531
00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:24,680
Speaker 3: so I don't know that's it. That's just been a

532
00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:25,320
Speaker 3: headache all year.

533
00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:29,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, who knows, Steve what more and will take

534
00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:31,440
Speaker 1: a break? Ethan, Ethan, go ahead, Ethan.

535
00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:35,320
Speaker 10: Hey, Billy, Matt uh So, I got a comment and

536
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:38,520
Speaker 10: a question here. I know you say that like most

537
00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:42,080
Speaker 10: of the negativity towards Dukes, it's probably more on Twitter.

538
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:42,840
Speaker 6: Uh.

539
00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:45,480
Speaker 10: But from what I've the people that I've talked to,

540
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:48,440
Speaker 10: I'm a season ticket holder, the other season ticket holders

541
00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:50,880
Speaker 10: that I've talked to, there's been quite a few that

542
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:53,040
Speaker 10: have said they're not going to renew their tickets unless

543
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:56,160
Speaker 10: there's a drastic change, whatever that may be.

544
00:30:57,240 --> 00:31:01,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, bad football tickets unlike basketball. Like basketball,

545
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:05,080
Speaker 1: people don't like to stop buying season tickets because they

546
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:08,400
Speaker 1: don't know if they'll ever get them back. Right, football,

547
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:10,920
Speaker 1: you could stop renewing and you could still get it

548
00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:13,840
Speaker 1: back in a year or two. So I do wonder

549
00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:17,600
Speaker 1: like if people would be more likely to not renew,

550
00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:20,520
Speaker 1: and you know, I don't think that would be how

551
00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:25,320
Speaker 1: they make their decision, but that would obviously be a negative, right.

552
00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:29,400
Speaker 10: And then my question is if you think there was

553
00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:32,840
Speaker 10: a school outside of the SEC that would be willing

554
00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:35,440
Speaker 10: to pay Stoops what he is would be making now

555
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:37,920
Speaker 10: on this contract, do you think that would make him

556
00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:40,480
Speaker 10: more likely to leave now or do you think his

557
00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:42,080
Speaker 10: heart is just set here at Kentucky.

558
00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:49,280
Speaker 1: I think if there was a good job that would

559
00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:52,600
Speaker 1: take Iowa for example, Well, he would go to Iowa,

560
00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:55,440
Speaker 1: but that's his alma mater. But take like, uh yeah,

561
00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:59,800
Speaker 1: so let's take like, like, what's what's in Iowa? Like school?

562
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:01,360
Speaker 2: It's not let's fake.

563
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:05,040
Speaker 1: Can we say too late? Well, no, that's a worse school.

564
00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:07,800
Speaker 1: So like like like take a take a big ten

565
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:13,080
Speaker 1: school that's not Iowa. So Wisconsin. Right, Let's say Wisconsin

566
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:17,480
Speaker 1: came up and they wanted him. Yeah, I think he'd

567
00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:20,240
Speaker 1: do it now. I think he would sort of take

568
00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:23,800
Speaker 1: a fresh start. But the other thing is, I don't

569
00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:27,840
Speaker 1: know how long he wants to coach period, right, So

570
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:30,360
Speaker 1: if he in his mind only wants to coach for

571
00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:32,360
Speaker 1: two or three years, does it make sense to go

572
00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:35,480
Speaker 1: start over at a new program. Maybe not, you know,

573
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:38,080
Speaker 1: so I don't know. I don't know what's in his head.

574
00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:41,400
Speaker 1: I think, you know, I haven't talked to him about it.

575
00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:44,600
Speaker 1: The people I know aren't sure exactly what he thinks.

576
00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:47,520
Speaker 1: I think the working assumption is at UK that he's

577
00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:50,600
Speaker 1: going to be back, but that's easy to say it.

578
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:52,920
Speaker 1: But what if we go lose by two touchdowns next

579
00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:53,720
Speaker 1: week to Louisville.

580
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:57,840
Speaker 10: You know, I don't know, right, So honestly, I almost.

581
00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:02,200
Speaker 10: I hate to say it, but I feel like it's

582
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:06,480
Speaker 10: best in Kentucky's long term interest if it's a rough

583
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:08,280
Speaker 10: game next week, because it's gonna be just.

584
00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:08,959
Speaker 6: Like last year.

585
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:11,360
Speaker 10: We're gonna beat Louisville, hopes they're gonna be high going

586
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:14,479
Speaker 10: in the offseason, and then it's just another cycle.

587
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:17,760
Speaker 1: Well, I appreciate the call. I don't think it's like

588
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:20,200
Speaker 1: last season. I think it's worse because last season we

589
00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:22,960
Speaker 1: still made a bowl game. We were making a bowl

590
00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:26,360
Speaker 1: game even if we didn't beat Louisville, so we wanted

591
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:30,840
Speaker 1: to beat them, but we also beat them there. They

592
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:34,280
Speaker 1: were really good last year on paper, we were not.

593
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:39,200
Speaker 1: This is different. They're not as good. This year. We're

594
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:43,760
Speaker 1: not making a bowl game. It's at home. So I

595
00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:48,720
Speaker 1: actually think this loss would be bad, And I don't

596
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 1: think necessarily we've all processed what losing the louisvill will

597
00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:52,640
Speaker 1: be like, because, be quite frank with you, we haven't

598
00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:55,320
Speaker 1: lost to them in a long time. So you know,

599
00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:58,520
Speaker 1: we'll see. If I'm nine two eight, twenty two eighty seven,

600
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:00,960
Speaker 1: we're gonna take a break an him down twenty one

601
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:04,600
Speaker 1: to seven to Auburn and driving Alabama and Oklahoma tied

602
00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:07,520
Speaker 1: at three. That's a brutally boring game. Also, if Alabama

603
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:13,040
Speaker 1: loses tonight shakes everything up. Indiana probably got saved h

604
00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:15,600
Speaker 1: to make the playoff with Old missus loss, even though

605
00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:17,320
Speaker 1: I don't know if they deserve it, they'll probably make it.

606
00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:19,640
Speaker 1: Now that Old miss has lost. We'll take a break.

607
00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:22,200
Speaker 1: Be right back. This is the Local Toy Dealers KSR

608
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:25,480
Speaker 1: post gip shop. Welcome back. It is the Local Toy

609
00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:28,160
Speaker 1: Dealers KSR post game show. I'm gonna try to play

610
00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:31,719
Speaker 1: this through my microphone here, Billy, so I'll see how

611
00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:34,880
Speaker 1: this sound. This is Uh, we'll see how this sounds.

612
00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:37,879
Speaker 1: This is Mark asked to ask if Mark Stoops asked

613
00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:47,160
Speaker 1: about Bush Hampden's future, what I mean, that's not even.

614
00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:51,319
Speaker 11: That's that's hard g even answer because I don't want

615
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:54,520
Speaker 11: to be the headline. Of course he's gonna be back. Yeah,

616
00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:03,279
Speaker 11: a lot, a lot of moving pieces that we need

617
00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:03,800
Speaker 11: to get.

618
00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:08,799
Speaker 1: Better, you know. So there you go. That's uh, that's

619
00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:11,920
Speaker 1: the comment. Sorry, now it's playing another video. That's the comment.

620
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:13,640
Speaker 1: Was that were able to hear that, Billy? Yeah?

621
00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:15,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, for the most part, what.

622
00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:18,560
Speaker 1: Do you mean, for the most part the beginning were

623
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:22,200
Speaker 1: the beginning. Yeah, that's hard to hear in the video too,

624
00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:24,719
Speaker 1: but you heard Stoops. Yes, Okay, so there you go.

625
00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:28,360
Speaker 1: That's that Mark Saint Bush is back. So if Stoops

626
00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:31,200
Speaker 1: is back, then Bush Hamden his back. That's how I

627
00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:34,160
Speaker 1: would I would read that. And I mean, but you know, again,

628
00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:35,680
Speaker 1: you got to take the coach at his word. He

629
00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:39,160
Speaker 1: he has seemed to suggest he would be back as well,

630
00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:43,719
Speaker 1: So you know that's the thing. There won't be I mean,

631
00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:46,680
Speaker 1: you're gonna run at least at the top the top

632
00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:48,800
Speaker 1: guys back. Now, there have been there have been rumors

633
00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:53,560
Speaker 1: of Brad White being looked at at Florida State as

634
00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:57,120
Speaker 1: a as a defensive coordinator option. No idea if they

635
00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:59,239
Speaker 1: would even want him or or if that would be

636
00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:03,600
Speaker 1: an offer. But that's you know, that's always a possibility too.

637
00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:06,680
Speaker 1: But at least it seems like if you get Mark

638
00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:09,600
Speaker 1: Stoops back, you are also going to have the same

639
00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:11,799
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator's.

640
00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:12,479
Speaker 3: Nate is next.

641
00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:13,680
Speaker 1: Nate go ahead and Nate.

642
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:19,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, man, I mean, there's just no room for optimism

643
00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:21,160
Speaker 4: right now, because, like you said, say, if we get

644
00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:24,160
Speaker 4: a fired up Stoops next years, he's ready to go.

645
00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:26,319
Speaker 4: He's ready to take us into the future. Well, we're

646
00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:29,960
Speaker 4: still punning on next year because we're losing regardless of transfers.

647
00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:33,280
Speaker 4: We're losing half of our defense and most of them stars.

648
00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:36,920
Speaker 4: We're losing all of our offensive line, albeit terrible, but

649
00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:40,480
Speaker 4: we have no debt. So then you're relying on buying

650
00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:43,239
Speaker 4: five offensive line and then seeing if that's going to work.

651
00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:45,080
Speaker 4: And let me tell you this, because I have it

652
00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:48,920
Speaker 4: from pretty good sources. If Brock van Regarth is back

653
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:51,640
Speaker 4: next year, Cutter Bowl will not be here. And that's

654
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:52,160
Speaker 4: a fact.

655
00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:55,959
Speaker 1: Well, I think we'll know the answer to that question

656
00:36:56,120 --> 00:37:00,239
Speaker 1: based on what happens starts Saturday, right, I mean, I

657
00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:03,400
Speaker 1: think the Brock Cutter thing will be decided by who

658
00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:09,320
Speaker 1: starts that game Saturday, Because I I kind of agree

659
00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:12,120
Speaker 1: with you. I can't see a scenario where Brock is

660
00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:15,920
Speaker 1: back and Cutter is back. Now, you know that can change.

661
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:18,680
Speaker 1: People sometimes say that during the year and then it

662
00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:23,759
Speaker 1: shifts later. But I tend to agree with you that

663
00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:27,640
Speaker 1: that's the most likely scenario. I think if the staff

664
00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:30,560
Speaker 1: believe that, then you're gonna see Cutter play. That's my

665
00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:33,920
Speaker 1: that's my guess. I think they believe highly in Cutter,

666
00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:36,040
Speaker 1: so so we'll.

667
00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:40,320
Speaker 4: See you know, But but Matt, can you address my

668
00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:43,400
Speaker 4: first part though, like, do you how do you see us?

669
00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:43,600
Speaker 6: Not?

670
00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:47,120
Speaker 4: Because next year, I believe I think with in the

671
00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:48,640
Speaker 4: last three season winning.

672
00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:52,200
Speaker 1: For I think it can be very see that's part

673
00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:55,600
Speaker 1: of my my pessimism is what you just said, Our

674
00:37:55,680 --> 00:38:00,279
Speaker 1: schedule next year is hard. Okay, I'm I mean our

675
00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:04,160
Speaker 1: schedule it's the same teams, but we flip who's home

676
00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:06,719
Speaker 1: and who's away, and it's I think it's harder. Now

677
00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:09,000
Speaker 1: you you'll have the You're gonna have all the good

678
00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:11,880
Speaker 1: teams at home the bad teams away. Now when you

679
00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:15,400
Speaker 1: if you want to make a run, that's not like

680
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:18,480
Speaker 1: if you had a really good team, you'd want the

681
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:22,680
Speaker 1: schedule they have next year. But if you don't, you

682
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:25,280
Speaker 1: could easily go zero to eight or one in seven

683
00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:28,800
Speaker 1: in conference. So that's what makes it hard. I appreciate

684
00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:31,239
Speaker 1: the call. No, it would be hard for me to

685
00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:34,840
Speaker 1: be really optimistic. I mean, let's look at the best

686
00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:40,680
Speaker 1: optimistic case. Dane will go to the draft. I think

687
00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:43,799
Speaker 1: it's almost certain that's not inside knowledge. That's the fact

688
00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:45,879
Speaker 1: that he's projecting the fourth round. And if you're dain

689
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:48,239
Speaker 1: key with all that's happening, you're projecting the fourth round,

690
00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:53,160
Speaker 1: you gotta go. Okay, you got a ton of guys

691
00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:57,120
Speaker 1: graduating on defense, and then you got dudes like the

692
00:38:57,440 --> 00:39:02,000
Speaker 1: d'Al walker's going so you're gonna probably lose seven defensive starters.

693
00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:05,560
Speaker 1: You know who's coming back that you're excited about, Well,

694
00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:08,920
Speaker 1: they got a couple of freshman receivers. You like Ferrier,

695
00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:13,520
Speaker 1: Gilmore will Cox. Think you got will Cox at running back,

696
00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:16,920
Speaker 1: you got Willie Rodriguez at tight ends. You got some weapons.

697
00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:24,160
Speaker 1: But offensive line is a massive question mark, and defense

698
00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:27,520
Speaker 1: it's just gonna be all new. Front seven in defense

699
00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:29,560
Speaker 1: is what would really worry me. A lot of these

700
00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:31,560
Speaker 1: guys in the secondary have had to play this year

701
00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:34,040
Speaker 1: to fill in for people, so I have a little

702
00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:37,480
Speaker 1: more confidence that they'll But the front seven, I mean,

703
00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:42,080
Speaker 1: you're just starting over, and yeah, I don't know. By

704
00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:43,319
Speaker 1: the way, I told you.

705
00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:45,279
Speaker 3: Notre Dame was gonna I had to turn that off.

706
00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:48,040
Speaker 1: Turn that it's thirty five to seven. That was the

707
00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:54,000
Speaker 1: easiest bet. The fact that was fourteen was ridiculous. And

708
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:55,239
Speaker 1: you wanted to pick army.

709
00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:57,759
Speaker 3: Respect our troops. Please respect our troops.

710
00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:00,320
Speaker 1: I respect them, I respect them. I want them to

711
00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:04,200
Speaker 1: be trooping, not playing against Notre Dame in Yankee Stadium.

712
00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:04,799
Speaker 1: Who's next?

713
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:07,000
Speaker 3: Amazing they lost in Northern Illinois this year.

714
00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:10,520
Speaker 1: I mean that isn't a That is a bizarre loss.

715
00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:13,279
Speaker 1: But go ahead, Jerry, because Northern Illinois is not even

716
00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:18,240
Speaker 1: good six and five and six or something. Jerry, go ahead, Jerry.

717
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:22,600
Speaker 8: Hey man, I don't care who you start quarterback. Okay,

718
00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:25,879
Speaker 8: give Cutter Bowlie four games behind this offensive line, he's

719
00:40:25,880 --> 00:40:27,800
Speaker 8: gonna be in the same shape vandergriff as in with

720
00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:31,200
Speaker 8: happy feet and scared of death back here behind that

721
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:35,480
Speaker 8: line and not well, it's until you get until you

722
00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:38,920
Speaker 8: get rid of these coaches and that offensive line. I

723
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:39,439
Speaker 8: don't care.

724
00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:43,759
Speaker 1: And let me ask you a question, Jerry, because you

725
00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:45,400
Speaker 1: know you've been called a long time. I like you.

726
00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:49,799
Speaker 1: You're you're negative, but I but you're consistently negative. When

727
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:51,120
Speaker 1: you say coaches, who do you mean?

728
00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:55,279
Speaker 8: Hamden and offensive line coach?

729
00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:02,040
Speaker 1: When I play you the clip with stoops Hamden's back, which,

730
00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:03,000
Speaker 1: what do you say? Then?

731
00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:06,839
Speaker 8: What I say is is I think Steus has gotten

732
00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:11,440
Speaker 8: a reputation with these offensive coaches that they're not knocked on.

733
00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:13,759
Speaker 8: He didn't have offensive coordinators knocked on his door.

734
00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:17,919
Speaker 12: And yeah, I think he did.

735
00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:21,560
Speaker 1: I think he did for a while, but I think

736
00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:24,120
Speaker 1: you're right. I mean, let me say, all right, so

737
00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:27,560
Speaker 1: we've seen what Liam's done in the NFL, right, and

738
00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:32,320
Speaker 1: Jerry Hampden was very well respected. I mean everyone I

739
00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:36,040
Speaker 1: talked to, the same people that were telling me when

740
00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:40,400
Speaker 1: we got Liam three years ago. Because again, you know,

741
00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:43,520
Speaker 1: I met some people through my NFL show who were

742
00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:46,919
Speaker 1: saying to me, Liam's a great get. They were saying

743
00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:49,640
Speaker 1: the same thing to me about Bush. Which makes me

744
00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:52,880
Speaker 1: wonder Jerry if like, if we were to let him go,

745
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:55,040
Speaker 1: if he wouldn't just go somewhere else and be really good.

746
00:41:56,800 --> 00:41:59,160
Speaker 8: Well, the first thing I would say is the Mountain

747
00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:03,680
Speaker 8: West Anteus and when you're in the SEC, you're in

748
00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:06,800
Speaker 8: the against the best.

749
00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:09,759
Speaker 1: Limb had ever been an offensive coordinator. Was like, what

750
00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:11,600
Speaker 1: Monment when he came here?

751
00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:15,600
Speaker 8: Yeah, but but but when he came here, he he

752
00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:17,239
Speaker 8: was able to meet the level. And the thing that

753
00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:19,880
Speaker 8: worries me is Lim was the guy that recruited all

754
00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:24,719
Speaker 8: these quarterbacks. And it wouldn't shock me if if if

755
00:42:25,040 --> 00:42:28,360
Speaker 8: Cutter and the vander Griff left and we lose some

756
00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:31,520
Speaker 8: of these guys who we've recruited, because once again, they

757
00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:35,120
Speaker 8: were recruited by Liam Cohen. And it's just and it's

758
00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:37,680
Speaker 8: just a lot of the a lot of the offensive

759
00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:40,640
Speaker 8: play call I've seen. We're just bizarre. You know, you've

760
00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:44,440
Speaker 8: got an offensive line that's Swiss cheese and you're on

761
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:46,719
Speaker 8: fourth and short and you're gonna run out of the shotgun.

762
00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:51,640
Speaker 8: You know you're and give the defense three yards. That's crazy.

763
00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:54,040
Speaker 8: I mean, the best play called was when they threw

764
00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:56,160
Speaker 8: the ball in fourth and short. And and I just

765
00:42:56,320 --> 00:43:00,200
Speaker 8: I can said and and then Alabama's Alabama's off of

766
00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:02,520
Speaker 8: line last year couldn't pass protect, and now we can't

767
00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:05,160
Speaker 8: pass protect this year. What's the common denominator?

768
00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:08,400
Speaker 1: Well, I think I agree with you about the offensive

769
00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:11,120
Speaker 1: line coach. I think it's hard to imagine a world

770
00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:13,880
Speaker 1: where it makes sense to bring him back. You're exactly right.

771
00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:18,360
Speaker 1: I mean the Alabama that Alabama lost a national title

772
00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:21,040
Speaker 1: last year because of their offensive line, and he was

773
00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:23,800
Speaker 1: the kip so and I appreciate it.

774
00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:26,319
Speaker 3: Just go ahead, Oh sorry, I cut him off.

775
00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:29,160
Speaker 1: That's okay, I'm sorry about that. Jerry. Jerry's a good call.

776
00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:32,560
Speaker 1: Jerry's been calling since the Joker day, so he's one

777
00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:36,719
Speaker 1: of the few football postgamers that I that has been

778
00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:38,120
Speaker 1: from day one. Who's next?

779
00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:39,640
Speaker 3: Corey's next?

780
00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:43,239
Speaker 1: Corey? Go ahead, Corey, Hey, Matt.

781
00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:47,120
Speaker 12: I got a couple of things here. I tend to

782
00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:49,960
Speaker 12: agree with the idea that Stoops. I mean, he's the

783
00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:53,360
Speaker 12: best coach we've ever had, that's pretty obvious. But I

784
00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:56,600
Speaker 12: do think going into the this nil world and the

785
00:43:56,680 --> 00:43:59,840
Speaker 12: transfer portal is just so accessible now you can re

786
00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:03,480
Speaker 12: build in a week, almost half of the season's over.

787
00:44:04,600 --> 00:44:07,920
Speaker 12: I think this idea that Stoops is the one savior

788
00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:11,480
Speaker 12: for Kentucky football is not true anymore. Maybe five years

789
00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:14,600
Speaker 12: ago when recruiting was a big deal and developing players,

790
00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:16,520
Speaker 12: but now you can go to the portal immediately, so

791
00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:19,040
Speaker 12: you really just need a guy that's connected with I

792
00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:20,200
Speaker 12: think that's actually true.

793
00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:23,239
Speaker 1: I think that's a really good point, and it's a

794
00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:25,839
Speaker 1: it's a point that is important to make. That mad

795
00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:30,640
Speaker 1: that I did think that two three years ago, and

796
00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:33,560
Speaker 1: I think I was right, But I think you're right

797
00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:39,239
Speaker 1: in that's changed now, Like now you can look at

798
00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:44,040
Speaker 1: Indiana like you can rebuild a team overnight. And the

799
00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:48,840
Speaker 1: thing that Mark is great at I'm not saying it's replaceable,

800
00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:52,239
Speaker 1: but you can find another way to do it now,

801
00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:54,839
Speaker 1: maybe in a way you couldn't three or four years ago.

802
00:44:57,080 --> 00:44:59,160
Speaker 12: Yeah, And what I mean with that being said, what

803
00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:02,640
Speaker 12: really about the way his contract and all this stuff

804
00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:04,560
Speaker 12: is going to end up playing out unless he for

805
00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:08,520
Speaker 12: some reason wants to go somewhere else or steps down

806
00:45:08,680 --> 00:45:11,800
Speaker 12: with a pay cut of some kind, which is unlikely.

807
00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:15,759
Speaker 12: We're almost in a lame duck period here where maybe

808
00:45:15,840 --> 00:45:18,000
Speaker 12: he comes back for two years with a little bit

809
00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:19,640
Speaker 12: of fire, but at the end of the day and

810
00:45:19,719 --> 00:45:21,640
Speaker 12: two years, we're going to be in the same situation

811
00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:25,040
Speaker 12: we're in now. So in my opinion, if there's any

812
00:45:25,120 --> 00:45:27,960
Speaker 12: way to just start that process now, I think it's

813
00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:30,879
Speaker 12: better because what is the upside of him coming back

814
00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:31,720
Speaker 12: for two years?

815
00:45:32,760 --> 00:45:36,680
Speaker 1: Let me say to you, I don't totally disagree with that,

816
00:45:37,239 --> 00:45:39,759
Speaker 1: And not only is it lame duck, it's lame duck

817
00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:42,000
Speaker 1: in what I would argue will be the most important

818
00:45:42,040 --> 00:45:46,040
Speaker 1: two years in college football in the last twenty five years, because,

819
00:45:47,160 --> 00:45:50,280
Speaker 1: as we've talked about on the Morning Show, the rules

820
00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:54,480
Speaker 1: for the next twenty five years of college athletics are

821
00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:56,879
Speaker 1: going to be made in the next year or two,

822
00:45:57,880 --> 00:46:01,279
Speaker 1: and you gotta be ready. It's gonna change and I

823
00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:04,520
Speaker 1: think you're gonna this is a year of flux. I

824
00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:06,840
Speaker 1: think next year is gonna be a year of flux.

825
00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:10,160
Speaker 1: But then I think that next year the rules are

826
00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:15,880
Speaker 1: gonna be set, and whoever locks in is gonna succeed,

827
00:46:16,160 --> 00:46:19,080
Speaker 1: and whoever does it is gonna get left behind. And

828
00:46:19,239 --> 00:46:21,640
Speaker 1: you can and if you're not careful, you're gonna be

829
00:46:21,719 --> 00:46:26,080
Speaker 1: a Nebraska and like just get left behind permanently. Whereas

830
00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:28,839
Speaker 1: there are teams that can lock into this new era

831
00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:33,440
Speaker 1: and might create football powerhouses, uh coming up. So I

832
00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:36,200
Speaker 1: appreciate the call. I mean, I to put it a

833
00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:39,479
Speaker 1: different way, here's one of the great things. There's gonna

834
00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:41,360
Speaker 1: be a lot of negative things about the new rules

835
00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:43,600
Speaker 1: in college sports, but here's gonna be one of the

836
00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:48,520
Speaker 1: positive things. They're basically putting a salary cap in. Now

837
00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:51,120
Speaker 1: you'll be able to go above and beyond the salary cap.

838
00:46:51,440 --> 00:46:53,440
Speaker 1: But I've talked to some people in college football who

839
00:46:53,560 --> 00:46:55,680
Speaker 1: like think don't think most teams will need to do

840
00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:58,880
Speaker 1: that because it's not like the NBA, where like Steph

841
00:46:58,960 --> 00:47:01,520
Speaker 1: and Lebron are so much much better than everybody else,

842
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:04,800
Speaker 1: like or were in their primes. Like this is a

843
00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:06,560
Speaker 1: case where there's a lot of guys you can win with,

844
00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:09,080
Speaker 1: and all these schools are gonna have money to spend,

845
00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:11,920
Speaker 1: so it's gonna kind of even the playing field. But

846
00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:14,600
Speaker 1: you better be ready to compete in that world, and

847
00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:16,759
Speaker 1: you better be loving that world because it's gonna be

848
00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:20,000
Speaker 1: a different kind of person that succeeds, right, It's gonna

849
00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:21,600
Speaker 1: be a different kind of person, the guy who can

850
00:47:21,960 --> 00:47:25,000
Speaker 1: intelligently build a team. Think about what Mark's done at

851
00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:27,920
Speaker 1: Kentucky basketball. We don't have the most talented players, but

852
00:47:28,040 --> 00:47:31,840
Speaker 1: he has put together a very smart team using the pieces,

853
00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:34,920
Speaker 1: using the money that we had. That's gonna be college

854
00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:37,920
Speaker 1: football now, and we need a dude that's ready to

855
00:47:38,120 --> 00:47:42,279
Speaker 1: do that. A five nine, twenty two eighty seven. We'll

856
00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:43,799
Speaker 1: do one more and take a final break. Who's next?

857
00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:44,480
Speaker 3: Wild Bill?

858
00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:47,960
Speaker 1: Wild Bill? What's up? Hey?

859
00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:48,560
Speaker 6: Can you hear me?

860
00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:50,160
Speaker 2: No?

861
00:47:50,400 --> 00:47:51,040
Speaker 1: Yes? Go ahead?

862
00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:55,200
Speaker 13: Sorry, So I had a bunch of things written down,

863
00:47:55,280 --> 00:47:58,640
Speaker 13: but I'm just I've been focusing on soups ever since.

864
00:47:58,920 --> 00:47:59,040
Speaker 4: You know.

865
00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:01,120
Speaker 13: The end of the game is like where the conversation

866
00:48:01,280 --> 00:48:04,839
Speaker 13: is going right now. But the overarching theme in his era,

867
00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:08,759
Speaker 13: with all the good he's done on defense, excellent draft picks,

868
00:48:08,800 --> 00:48:11,320
Speaker 13: guys in the NFL like changed. Our program been the

869
00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:15,600
Speaker 13: best we've seen. It's offense and consistency and community at quarterback,

870
00:48:15,680 --> 00:48:19,719
Speaker 13: and it's been just like a it's like nails on

871
00:48:19,800 --> 00:48:23,920
Speaker 13: a talkboard with qb at uk and he's not willing

872
00:48:24,080 --> 00:48:27,520
Speaker 13: to like totally get away from his defensive nature and

873
00:48:27,600 --> 00:48:32,359
Speaker 13: football and like actually open up the offense and take

874
00:48:32,440 --> 00:48:34,279
Speaker 13: us to a new level. But at the same time,

875
00:48:34,320 --> 00:48:37,279
Speaker 13: it's like, with the landscape changing, we need money to

876
00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:40,920
Speaker 13: allow us to do that, Like he has to change first,

877
00:48:41,960 --> 00:48:44,680
Speaker 13: and I think we can go forward with money and

878
00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:46,839
Speaker 13: like how we can build a squad if that makes sense.

879
00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:50,319
Speaker 1: So totally agree with you. I mean that listen, it's

880
00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:52,680
Speaker 1: a different world than college football. I appreciate the college

881
00:48:52,680 --> 00:48:56,279
Speaker 1: different world football. Like, guys don't want to play three

882
00:48:56,360 --> 00:48:59,240
Speaker 1: yards in a cloud of dust, and I think Mark's

883
00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:01,479
Speaker 1: natural mind said is to do that now. He would

884
00:49:01,560 --> 00:49:04,279
Speaker 1: say to you, I'm not telling these coaches what to

885
00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:05,719
Speaker 1: do now, And he may even be I mean, he

886
00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:11,840
Speaker 1: may be right about that, but you know, facts are facts.

887
00:49:12,280 --> 00:49:14,719
Speaker 1: We just had the worst offensive season in terms of

888
00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:18,279
Speaker 1: touchdowns Kentucky's had since we were zwer in ten, So

889
00:49:19,480 --> 00:49:22,719
Speaker 1: you know, it is what it is. We'll take a break,

890
00:49:22,960 --> 00:49:25,160
Speaker 1: come back for the final segment. This is the Kentucky

891
00:49:25,200 --> 00:49:28,800
Speaker 1: Select Chevy Dealers KSR pregame Welcome back. It is the

892
00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:33,600
Speaker 1: local Tony Dealers KSR postgame show. A lot of yeah,

893
00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:36,920
Speaker 1: you know, you get the wrong wins sometimes a lot

894
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:39,839
Speaker 1: of big time action with playoff implications going on right now.

895
00:49:39,920 --> 00:49:43,919
Speaker 1: Alabama losing at the half to Oklahoma ten to three,

896
00:49:44,960 --> 00:49:48,080
Speaker 1: a and m losing at the half to Auburn twenty

897
00:49:48,120 --> 00:49:52,279
Speaker 1: one to seven, and Boise tied with Wyoming at ten

898
00:49:52,560 --> 00:49:56,759
Speaker 1: with Wyoming driving. Does Wyloming have the worst colors of

899
00:49:56,840 --> 00:49:58,600
Speaker 1: any football program in America?

900
00:49:59,640 --> 00:50:00,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think they're pretty close.

901
00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:07,600
Speaker 1: If not, it's either Wildman or Minnesota. Minnesotas are pretty terribles. Yeah,

902
00:50:07,640 --> 00:50:10,440
Speaker 1: it's just a terrible color. But wild mean, I don't

903
00:50:10,480 --> 00:50:14,040
Speaker 1: know why you would voluntarily choose brown as your color.

904
00:50:14,960 --> 00:50:20,600
Speaker 1: Brown is the brown is objectively the worst color. Yeah.

905
00:50:21,239 --> 00:50:24,480
Speaker 1: Seven seven two seven four uh five two five four.

906
00:50:24,560 --> 00:50:27,839
Speaker 1: One person rites, Matt Cutter gives me confidence. But if

907
00:50:27,920 --> 00:50:30,520
Speaker 1: I thought that Covington or Cutter was going to leave,

908
00:50:30,719 --> 00:50:34,000
Speaker 1: I'd be done. Another person says, Matt, thank you for

909
00:50:34,040 --> 00:50:37,160
Speaker 1: the Paddington I recommendation. My kids loved it, and my

910
00:50:37,280 --> 00:50:40,600
Speaker 1: wife and I did as well. Have you watched it?

911
00:50:40,920 --> 00:50:40,960
Speaker 4: No?

912
00:50:41,320 --> 00:50:42,360
Speaker 3: No, but I'm thinking about it.

913
00:50:42,880 --> 00:50:46,080
Speaker 1: You gotta watch good Watch it over Thanksgiving? Watch Paddington

914
00:50:46,120 --> 00:50:47,320
Speaker 1: two with your family.

915
00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:50,560
Speaker 3: Did you watch the b YU Arizona State game today?

916
00:50:51,520 --> 00:50:54,520
Speaker 1: I saw the end of it, saw the the insanity

917
00:50:54,640 --> 00:51:00,160
Speaker 1: Arizona's Arizona State's coach seems like an insane man. You know,

918
00:51:00,560 --> 00:51:02,920
Speaker 1: he got he was a little too smart at the end, right,

919
00:51:03,040 --> 00:51:05,640
Speaker 1: he was trying to be trying to be cute. Right

920
00:51:05,719 --> 00:51:08,480
Speaker 1: then just scoring, he's like running backwards and throwing it

921
00:51:08,520 --> 00:51:12,000
Speaker 1: in the crowd. And here's what I don't understand. Hey,

922
00:51:12,560 --> 00:51:14,759
Speaker 1: how is it not intentional grounding when you throw it

923
00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:17,279
Speaker 1: fifteen rows into the crowd and you're not out of

924
00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:17,760
Speaker 1: the pocket.

925
00:51:18,080 --> 00:51:20,360
Speaker 3: I don't know. You gotta get past the line of scrimmage,

926
00:51:20,440 --> 00:51:21,160
Speaker 3: that's the only thing.

927
00:51:21,600 --> 00:51:24,399
Speaker 1: Wait, no, you also have to be out of the pocket.

928
00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:26,560
Speaker 3: Out of the pocket and past the line of scrimmage.

929
00:51:26,640 --> 00:51:29,520
Speaker 1: Right, yes, but he wasn't out of the pocket. Okay,

930
00:51:30,160 --> 00:51:32,440
Speaker 1: So if you're not out of the pocket, you cannot

931
00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:34,480
Speaker 1: just throw it fifteen yards in the crowd. So it

932
00:51:34,480 --> 00:51:37,040
Speaker 1: should have been intentional grounded. Second, how is it not

933
00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:40,440
Speaker 1: a penalty when the whole team, when the whole crowd

934
00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:43,120
Speaker 1: runs on the field and the game's still going on. Yeah,

935
00:51:43,160 --> 00:51:44,320
Speaker 1: how's that not a penalty?

936
00:51:44,480 --> 00:51:45,560
Speaker 3: Should have been It.

937
00:51:45,600 --> 00:51:47,960
Speaker 1: Took him fifteen minutes to get all those people off

938
00:51:48,000 --> 00:51:50,000
Speaker 1: the field. That should have been so that should have

939
00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:53,080
Speaker 1: been thirty yards of penalty, right, there should have been

940
00:51:53,120 --> 00:51:58,080
Speaker 1: intentional grounding and it should have been a penalty. Now,

941
00:51:58,360 --> 00:52:01,840
Speaker 1: they probably still wouldn't have scored. But I don't know, Billy,

942
00:52:01,880 --> 00:52:03,799
Speaker 1: how they didn't call those two calls.

943
00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:06,200
Speaker 3: But it would have been a very different last play.

944
00:52:06,520 --> 00:52:09,120
Speaker 1: And if I was BYU's coach, I would have been

945
00:52:09,239 --> 00:52:12,400
Speaker 1: losing my mind, especially that they didn't call a penalty

946
00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:14,160
Speaker 1: on the fans being on the field.

947
00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:16,480
Speaker 3: Not only that they tore one of the goalposts down.

948
00:52:16,760 --> 00:52:18,640
Speaker 3: I don't know what they did, like just held it

949
00:52:18,760 --> 00:52:19,560
Speaker 3: up for the last time.

950
00:52:19,760 --> 00:52:22,520
Speaker 1: And he's sitting there. Here's a state coach sitting there screaming,

951
00:52:22,680 --> 00:52:24,879
Speaker 1: going how could there be a second left? Like, dude,

952
00:52:25,440 --> 00:52:29,319
Speaker 1: how could you even know? You know what I mean?

953
00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:34,640
Speaker 1: The referee is sitting there looking at the replay. How

954
00:52:34,719 --> 00:52:37,279
Speaker 1: did that dude even how could he have even known?

955
00:52:37,480 --> 00:52:39,719
Speaker 1: He didn't have it in front of him. It was weird,

956
00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:43,120
Speaker 1: losing his mind. His wife is standing next to him

957
00:52:43,160 --> 00:52:45,800
Speaker 1: with a look like, honey, you're on national TV. You

958
00:52:45,960 --> 00:52:48,520
Speaker 1: need to calm down a little bit. It was a

959
00:52:48,760 --> 00:52:51,720
Speaker 1: wild It's one of the wildest scenes in the history

960
00:52:51,760 --> 00:52:55,960
Speaker 1: of football right there. Who's next? JP? What's up? JP?

961
00:52:57,800 --> 00:52:58,000
Speaker 4: Hey?

962
00:52:58,120 --> 00:53:02,560
Speaker 6: Two quick points number one? What you're talking about with

963
00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:07,279
Speaker 6: steps and how he's talking The thing about it is

964
00:53:07,440 --> 00:53:10,480
Speaker 6: is it's real. I mean, that's why Chip Kelly is

965
00:53:10,520 --> 00:53:14,880
Speaker 6: an offensive coordinator in Ohio State. That's why Virginia's basketball

966
00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:17,880
Speaker 6: coach retired. I mean that stuff is real.

967
00:53:18,520 --> 00:53:20,400
Speaker 1: Well god, I mean, like, but you know what if

968
00:53:20,480 --> 00:53:23,399
Speaker 1: Chip if Chip Kelly, if Chip Kelly decided he didn't

969
00:53:23,400 --> 00:53:24,840
Speaker 1: want to do it anymore, although he didn't get fired,

970
00:53:25,080 --> 00:53:28,279
Speaker 1: but if if Tony like didn't didn't do it, you

971
00:53:28,360 --> 00:53:31,040
Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like, I grant you. The set

972
00:53:31,120 --> 00:53:34,360
Speaker 1: of skills it will take to be a college football

973
00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:36,920
Speaker 1: coach in the future is probably different than what it

974
00:53:37,120 --> 00:53:39,600
Speaker 1: was in the last five years. But you know, sir, like,

975
00:53:39,880 --> 00:53:42,000
Speaker 1: it is what it is. So you can sit there

976
00:53:42,040 --> 00:53:44,840
Speaker 1: and hearken for another day, or you can deal with it,

977
00:53:45,200 --> 00:53:45,799
Speaker 1: you know what I mean?

978
00:53:47,480 --> 00:53:49,920
Speaker 6: Oh, I agree with you. I'm I'm I'm with you, man,

979
00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:52,319
Speaker 6: I agree with you. I'm just saying it's a real thing.

980
00:53:53,280 --> 00:53:55,880
Speaker 6: I mean, I'm I'm with you. I mean, but but

981
00:53:56,400 --> 00:53:58,839
Speaker 6: and man, what that's what leads into my next point

982
00:53:59,040 --> 00:54:02,600
Speaker 6: is when and when you look at when you look

983
00:54:02,640 --> 00:54:07,439
Speaker 6: at a backup quarterback, the backup quarterback always the fun guy.

984
00:54:08,040 --> 00:54:11,520
Speaker 6: He's always the person that the crowd looks for. What

985
00:54:12,040 --> 00:54:15,680
Speaker 6: what I've I've always looked at is how hard does

986
00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:20,120
Speaker 6: the guys play when the backup quarterback comes in? Okay,

987
00:54:20,239 --> 00:54:25,040
Speaker 6: and if you look, this team plays harder when Bowley plays.

988
00:54:25,640 --> 00:54:29,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, Jesse Palmer said that. Jesse Palmer said. Jesse Palmer said,

989
00:54:29,760 --> 00:54:31,880
Speaker 1: when Bowley came in, he thought everybody turned it up

990
00:54:31,960 --> 00:54:32,080
Speaker 1: or not.

991
00:54:33,600 --> 00:54:37,120
Speaker 6: Yes. What that means is these guys believe that he

992
00:54:37,239 --> 00:54:38,120
Speaker 6: should be playing.

993
00:54:38,760 --> 00:54:38,960
Speaker 1: Yeah.

994
00:54:39,239 --> 00:54:42,120
Speaker 6: And so when you talk about earlier in the season

995
00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:46,319
Speaker 6: of all of the stuff that goes on, that's part

996
00:54:46,360 --> 00:54:50,759
Speaker 6: of that. That whole division, that's part of it.

997
00:54:50,920 --> 00:54:53,400
Speaker 1: That's all I yeah, yeah, Now it's a fair point.

998
00:54:53,480 --> 00:54:55,200
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know that I think there

999
00:54:55,280 --> 00:54:57,760
Speaker 1: was division, but you're right, they certainly had a bigger

1000
00:54:57,800 --> 00:54:59,719
Speaker 1: spark when he came in. I don't. I think that's

1001
00:55:00,280 --> 00:55:02,960
Speaker 1: that's undeniable. I want to go back to the though,

1002
00:55:03,200 --> 00:55:07,759
Speaker 1: the changing thing. You know, Billy, forgive me for just

1003
00:55:07,840 --> 00:55:11,160
Speaker 1: a second, but because you know, the election just happened.

1004
00:55:11,200 --> 00:55:14,400
Speaker 1: One of the things my side says that frustrated me

1005
00:55:15,040 --> 00:55:18,480
Speaker 1: is they were mad or at least whatever, like they

1006
00:55:18,480 --> 00:55:21,000
Speaker 1: would about the the way Trump went on all those

1007
00:55:21,080 --> 00:55:25,040
Speaker 1: podcasts right and likent like Rogan and Theovonne, et cetera.

1008
00:55:25,480 --> 00:55:29,400
Speaker 1: And they were like, you know, they were kind of

1009
00:55:29,440 --> 00:55:32,880
Speaker 1: complaining that that's how a lot of people make their decisions. Well,

1010
00:55:32,920 --> 00:55:35,200
Speaker 1: you know what, you can sit there and complain about

1011
00:55:35,239 --> 00:55:38,160
Speaker 1: it or not, but that's just how it is now.

1012
00:55:39,080 --> 00:55:41,960
Speaker 1: Like the reality is there's a ton of people thirty

1013
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:44,600
Speaker 1: and under who the only news they get is from

1014
00:55:44,680 --> 00:55:48,600
Speaker 1: podcasts like like Rogan and theovonn. So you gotta do it,

1015
00:55:49,600 --> 00:55:51,440
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like you don't sit there

1016
00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:54,520
Speaker 1: and why about it? Or you can do it, Like

1017
00:55:54,719 --> 00:55:59,560
Speaker 1: that's just what you gotta do. And I when you

1018
00:55:59,719 --> 00:56:04,960
Speaker 1: fight change, you end up like Kodak and Blockbuster and BlackBerry,

1019
00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:09,960
Speaker 1: or you can be like Apple and be a company

1020
00:56:10,040 --> 00:56:12,600
Speaker 1: that people thought was gonna go away and now is

1021
00:56:12,640 --> 00:56:15,560
Speaker 1: the most powerful company in the world because they adapted

1022
00:56:15,640 --> 00:56:19,840
Speaker 1: to change or Netflix right, Netflix whole business model was

1023
00:56:19,920 --> 00:56:22,879
Speaker 1: about to go up in flames, the idea of through

1024
00:56:22,960 --> 00:56:25,680
Speaker 1: the mail. So then they said, you know what we'll

1025
00:56:25,719 --> 00:56:28,719
Speaker 1: do streaming and now Netflix is Netflix. I mean they

1026
00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:31,319
Speaker 1: got this huge show called Wrestlers. I mean, like that's

1027
00:56:31,360 --> 00:56:34,759
Speaker 1: what that's they were able to do it. Like you,

1028
00:56:35,080 --> 00:56:39,320
Speaker 1: you cannot Mark Stoops, cannot sit and complain about what

1029
00:56:39,480 --> 00:56:43,520
Speaker 1: football is? It is it? So do it or don't?

1030
00:56:45,160 --> 00:56:45,680
Speaker 1: Who's next?

1031
00:56:45,960 --> 00:56:47,399
Speaker 3: Camden for four more?

1032
00:56:47,520 --> 00:56:48,320
Speaker 1: Camden? Go ahead?

1033
00:56:50,600 --> 00:56:53,359
Speaker 14: Hey man a while, I know it's good to see

1034
00:56:53,440 --> 00:56:54,520
Speaker 14: you and Billy.

1035
00:56:56,280 --> 00:56:57,360
Speaker 1: I'm doing good. How are you.

1036
00:57:00,320 --> 00:57:00,520
Speaker 15: Doing?

1037
00:57:00,719 --> 00:57:04,239
Speaker 14: Okay? After that low some matt over the last you know,

1038
00:57:04,320 --> 00:57:06,520
Speaker 14: over the last three years. You know, it's it's been

1039
00:57:06,640 --> 00:57:09,880
Speaker 14: unsuccessful ever since the twenty twenty one Centriant Bowl wins.

1040
00:57:10,640 --> 00:57:13,279
Speaker 14: So rather than the five offens of coordinay we've had

1041
00:57:13,360 --> 00:57:15,680
Speaker 14: over the last five probably five years something like that,

1042
00:57:16,560 --> 00:57:18,919
Speaker 14: rather than you know, the QB sails with Devin Larry

1043
00:57:19,000 --> 00:57:22,120
Speaker 14: and Rock vander griff what like, how do we get

1044
00:57:22,200 --> 00:57:25,240
Speaker 14: these these next future of the twenty five years when

1045
00:57:25,240 --> 00:57:26,000
Speaker 14: you call it football?

1046
00:57:26,040 --> 00:57:26,240
Speaker 6: Rolls?

1047
00:57:26,280 --> 00:57:26,320
Speaker 4: Like?

1048
00:57:26,400 --> 00:57:28,960
Speaker 14: How how how do we like, how do we get.

1049
00:57:28,920 --> 00:57:30,760
Speaker 1: Done, Like, how do we get That's a great question.

1050
00:57:30,880 --> 00:57:34,400
Speaker 1: That's a great question. First of all, you you get smarter,

1051
00:57:34,680 --> 00:57:38,880
Speaker 1: and I you go find people who understand the new

1052
00:57:38,960 --> 00:57:43,920
Speaker 1: rules and who and who sort of utilize them. You know. Uh,

1053
00:57:44,320 --> 00:57:46,080
Speaker 1: let me just give you an example. Camden on the

1054
00:57:46,160 --> 00:57:54,200
Speaker 1: basketball scale. Mark Poe has everyone on that staff is

1055
00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:58,760
Speaker 1: really smart and they think about things in an analytical way.

1056
00:57:59,320 --> 00:58:02,600
Speaker 1: They brought it in this guy who's lived in Lexington

1057
00:58:02,680 --> 00:58:05,920
Speaker 1: for many years, uh Ron Brown and Steven Horn, they're

1058
00:58:05,960 --> 00:58:08,600
Speaker 1: friends of mine. They got him to run the collective

1059
00:58:08,760 --> 00:58:11,520
Speaker 1: and they're doing it a different way than a lot

1060
00:58:11,560 --> 00:58:14,080
Speaker 1: of other collectives are doing it. And they were able

1061
00:58:14,120 --> 00:58:16,120
Speaker 1: to raise money in a quick way, and they were

1062
00:58:16,160 --> 00:58:17,880
Speaker 1: able to come up with ideas. And you know, Camon,

1063
00:58:17,960 --> 00:58:20,360
Speaker 1: sometimes they don't all work. When you do this new stuff,

1064
00:58:20,400 --> 00:58:22,919
Speaker 1: sometimes it doesn't work. Not everybody loved the Blue White Game.

1065
00:58:22,960 --> 00:58:26,600
Speaker 1: That wasn't a massive success. But you try stuff and

1066
00:58:26,720 --> 00:58:30,520
Speaker 1: you adapt. Mark I think has got to do that.

1067
00:58:30,960 --> 00:58:34,280
Speaker 1: He's got to get away from the old mentality of

1068
00:58:34,520 --> 00:58:36,640
Speaker 1: like we're gonna outwork them and we're going to this

1069
00:58:36,840 --> 00:58:39,680
Speaker 1: and then and think, okay, what does this new era need?

1070
00:58:40,320 --> 00:58:42,640
Speaker 1: And I think that involves probably changing some of the

1071
00:58:42,720 --> 00:58:45,000
Speaker 1: people came in that are that are around you.

1072
00:58:46,440 --> 00:58:48,600
Speaker 14: Yeah yeah, yeah, so like just like to thing is though,

1073
00:58:48,600 --> 00:58:51,760
Speaker 14: it's like he like like you said earlier, man like

1074
00:58:52,000 --> 00:58:54,640
Speaker 14: he doesn't he's not like used to like you know,

1075
00:58:54,880 --> 00:58:57,000
Speaker 14: like you said, he's not used to this old stuff.

1076
00:58:57,040 --> 00:58:57,360
Speaker 9: He said.

1077
00:58:57,360 --> 00:58:59,560
Speaker 14: This was like, well you said about the old master.

1078
00:58:59,560 --> 00:59:02,200
Speaker 14: It's like, how can you like, you gotta get used

1079
00:59:02,200 --> 00:59:03,960
Speaker 14: to it, because you gotta get used to this, Like

1080
00:59:03,960 --> 00:59:05,520
Speaker 14: how can you get used to like the.

1081
00:59:05,640 --> 00:59:06,760
Speaker 15: Old my era?

1082
00:59:07,080 --> 00:59:09,000
Speaker 1: You got to bring new people in. They can teach you.

1083
00:59:09,720 --> 00:59:11,640
Speaker 1: It's good to hear from you, Cam and I appreciate it.

1084
00:59:11,720 --> 00:59:14,360
Speaker 1: It's sort of like Billy, I don't like TikTok, or

1085
00:59:14,440 --> 00:59:16,840
Speaker 1: at least I didn't. I've kind of gotten used to it,

1086
00:59:17,360 --> 00:59:19,840
Speaker 1: but I didn't want to be on TikTok. But now

1087
00:59:19,920 --> 00:59:23,320
Speaker 1: everyone's on TikTok. So I said, you know what, we

1088
00:59:23,400 --> 00:59:26,040
Speaker 1: got to get somebody and bring him in who understands

1089
00:59:26,120 --> 00:59:28,240
Speaker 1: this world. And we brought in Mario. And now our

1090
00:59:28,320 --> 00:59:31,800
Speaker 1: TikTok page has fourteen thousand followers. We have a couple

1091
00:59:31,920 --> 00:59:35,000
Speaker 1: videos have gotten over a million views. And it's because

1092
00:59:35,280 --> 00:59:37,240
Speaker 1: rather than sit there and whine about all these kids

1093
00:59:37,280 --> 00:59:39,120
Speaker 1: in their TikTok. I went and got somebody who could

1094
00:59:39,120 --> 00:59:42,919
Speaker 1: do TikTok, and that's kind of Mark. I'm not saying

1095
00:59:42,960 --> 00:59:45,800
Speaker 1: Martin needs to get somebody can, but Martin needs to

1096
00:59:45,880 --> 00:59:49,720
Speaker 1: get somebody who understands what this new era is going

1097
00:59:49,800 --> 00:59:50,640
Speaker 1: to be. Like Who's next?

1098
00:59:50,760 --> 00:59:53,160
Speaker 3: Just wait till you start dancing to that TikTok. Account's

1099
00:59:53,200 --> 00:59:56,480
Speaker 3: just gonna skyrocket. I'm not gonna dance. O, We'll get

1100
00:59:56,520 --> 00:59:59,440
Speaker 3: you to dance. Josh is next, Josh, go ahead, Josh.

1101
01:00:00,880 --> 01:00:06,040
Speaker 16: A diehard Kentucky fan, longtime listeners, first time ever calling in,

1102
01:00:06,600 --> 01:00:10,000
Speaker 16: who are just just just want to pick you Brian

1103
01:00:10,040 --> 01:00:12,760
Speaker 16: a little bit? At what point do we start holding

1104
01:00:14,320 --> 01:00:18,320
Speaker 16: miss Barnhardt accountable? You know, from from my view, he

1105
01:00:18,480 --> 01:00:21,760
Speaker 16: made horrible contract the season with cal Perry, got bailed

1106
01:00:21,760 --> 01:00:23,200
Speaker 16: out by Arkansas.

1107
01:00:23,360 --> 01:00:25,800
Speaker 17: And him you know, leaving on his own, and then

1108
01:00:25,880 --> 01:00:26,720
Speaker 17: you know, in twenty.

1109
01:00:26,520 --> 01:00:29,520
Speaker 16: Twenty two the same thing he gave, in my opinion,

1110
01:00:29,600 --> 01:00:31,040
Speaker 16: a stupid contract to.

1111
01:00:32,520 --> 01:00:34,040
Speaker 4: You know, stoops that's winning but.

1112
01:00:34,200 --> 01:00:35,960
Speaker 16: Not really well.

1113
01:00:35,960 --> 01:00:38,760
Speaker 1: I mean, okay, so I'm the same question. You seem

1114
01:00:38,880 --> 01:00:40,680
Speaker 1: like a good fella, So I'm gonna give you the

1115
01:00:40,720 --> 01:00:44,480
Speaker 1: same question I give when people ask me this. It's

1116
01:00:44,560 --> 01:00:48,640
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two, right, Kentucky has just come off a

1117
01:00:48,720 --> 01:00:53,080
Speaker 1: Citrus Bowl where where we won't where we lost that one,

1118
01:00:53,400 --> 01:00:55,760
Speaker 1: but we came off of Centrius Bowl. We had we

1119
01:00:55,920 --> 01:00:58,000
Speaker 1: had no we won that one. We had ten wins

1120
01:00:58,560 --> 01:01:03,200
Speaker 1: that season. Right, and Mark Stoops comes Mark Stoops agent, Yeah,

1121
01:01:03,480 --> 01:01:07,760
Speaker 1: Mark Stoops agent comes in and says, give us this

1122
01:01:08,920 --> 01:01:12,720
Speaker 1: or he may go somewhere else. And we've just come

1123
01:01:12,760 --> 01:01:15,080
Speaker 1: off a ten win season. Will Levis has said he

1124
01:01:15,200 --> 01:01:17,520
Speaker 1: will return for a second year after one of the

1125
01:01:17,600 --> 01:01:22,560
Speaker 1: better quarterback seasons we'd ever had, and and his agent says,

1126
01:01:22,720 --> 01:01:26,400
Speaker 1: I want this, or he may go somewhere else. You're

1127
01:01:26,440 --> 01:01:29,760
Speaker 1: letting him walk. You letting Kentucky fans see the best

1128
01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:33,080
Speaker 1: coach that they've ever had at the time, go walk

1129
01:01:33,200 --> 01:01:35,160
Speaker 1: and go to a school similar to Kentucky.

1130
01:01:38,560 --> 01:01:39,880
Speaker 16: I say, I let him walk.

1131
01:01:41,720 --> 01:01:44,919
Speaker 1: That's what you do. Yeah, but okay, but again that's

1132
01:01:44,960 --> 01:01:49,040
Speaker 1: easy to say. Now, okay, And I'm not saying you're wrong,

1133
01:01:50,640 --> 01:01:52,840
Speaker 1: But I just want you to think about what the

1134
01:01:52,920 --> 01:01:55,960
Speaker 1: reactions of the fans would have been if Mark Stoops

1135
01:01:56,080 --> 01:01:58,960
Speaker 1: left and let's say he went to Nebraska and he

1136
01:01:59,080 --> 01:02:03,760
Speaker 1: took Will Levin with him and they went there. What

1137
01:02:03,840 --> 01:02:06,439
Speaker 1: would that have been like, I don't think it would

1138
01:02:06,440 --> 01:02:06,919
Speaker 1: have been nice.

1139
01:02:07,200 --> 01:02:09,920
Speaker 16: The amount of the contract is what bothers me. He

1140
01:02:10,720 --> 01:02:12,800
Speaker 16: gave him so much money, and the way the contract

1141
01:02:12,880 --> 01:02:17,680
Speaker 16: deals structured with Stoop sad, with cal Perry, they have

1142
01:02:17,800 --> 01:02:19,680
Speaker 16: no incentive to win, so they lay down.

1143
01:02:20,240 --> 01:02:23,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's not true. Great coach, that's not true. Great coaches.

1144
01:02:23,400 --> 01:02:26,040
Speaker 1: Great coaches hang on. Great coaches have an incentive to win.

1145
01:02:26,640 --> 01:02:28,560
Speaker 1: If you go look at the top ten coaches in

1146
01:02:28,640 --> 01:02:31,240
Speaker 1: the country money wise, seven of them are going to

1147
01:02:31,240 --> 01:02:34,280
Speaker 1: be in the playoff this year, right, Like, like, great

1148
01:02:34,360 --> 01:02:37,440
Speaker 1: coaches win. I don't think the guys who make a

1149
01:02:37,480 --> 01:02:40,360
Speaker 1: lot of money just sit there and go I don't care, right,

1150
01:02:40,400 --> 01:02:42,600
Speaker 1: I mean, Nick Saban was making more money than anybody.

1151
01:02:42,640 --> 01:02:46,080
Speaker 1: He also was winning more money more than anybody, was

1152
01:02:46,120 --> 01:02:54,000
Speaker 1: making more money than anybody. The names, I get you,

1153
01:02:54,280 --> 01:02:58,240
Speaker 1: But again it's all about leverage. You say you would

1154
01:02:58,280 --> 01:03:01,760
Speaker 1: have let him go, Okay, maybe you would have. I'm

1155
01:03:01,920 --> 01:03:05,960
Speaker 1: just saying that's a real hard decision to make. If

1156
01:03:06,000 --> 01:03:08,760
Speaker 1: we had won ten and he walks out the door

1157
01:03:09,160 --> 01:03:12,120
Speaker 1: and he takes Will Levis with him, and he takes

1158
01:03:12,120 --> 01:03:15,560
Speaker 1: and all of our good players transfer and Vince Marrow

1159
01:03:15,720 --> 01:03:19,800
Speaker 1: leaves and takes all our recruiting. I don't think most

1160
01:03:19,880 --> 01:03:21,880
Speaker 1: of our fans would have been thrilled about that.

1161
01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:27,360
Speaker 16: I hear you, and I can partially agree with that.

1162
01:03:28,240 --> 01:03:31,440
Speaker 16: I think what bothers me the most is it wasn't

1163
01:03:31,680 --> 01:03:35,360
Speaker 16: just with football though, like we done it with cal too, Calvi.

1164
01:03:36,720 --> 01:03:38,640
Speaker 1: Remember when we did it with cal Remember when we

1165
01:03:38,720 --> 01:03:43,080
Speaker 1: did it with Calvo. Coming off twenty seventeen, We've just

1166
01:03:43,200 --> 01:03:46,400
Speaker 1: been to the Final eight with Malik Monk and with

1167
01:03:47,520 --> 01:03:52,480
Speaker 1: staring Fox and Bam aute Bio and UCLA gives cal

1168
01:03:52,680 --> 01:03:56,160
Speaker 1: the offer and Cayl says to Mitch, just match it.

1169
01:03:56,560 --> 01:03:59,600
Speaker 1: At that point, he had really only had one bad year,

1170
01:04:00,080 --> 01:04:02,960
Speaker 1: and we had been to four final fours in seven years,

1171
01:04:03,040 --> 01:04:05,600
Speaker 1: and we were a loop may shot away from another one.

1172
01:04:05,920 --> 01:04:08,960
Speaker 1: You gonna let John Caliperry walk to U c l

1173
01:04:09,040 --> 01:04:10,200
Speaker 1: A at that moment.

1174
01:04:12,960 --> 01:04:18,760
Speaker 16: Me personally, absolutely, because Okay, we're UK. Were UK basketball

1175
01:04:19,280 --> 01:04:22,200
Speaker 16: now that were It's whole other story of basketball versus football.

1176
01:04:22,360 --> 01:04:26,360
Speaker 16: Were basketball. It's UK. You know, we're the number one,

1177
01:04:27,120 --> 01:04:30,720
Speaker 16: arguably the number one basketball school in the entire country

1178
01:04:30,760 --> 01:04:31,480
Speaker 16: and always will be.

1179
01:04:32,040 --> 01:04:33,440
Speaker 15: So you I.

1180
01:04:35,400 --> 01:04:38,120
Speaker 1: I think it is hard, and I appreciate the call.

1181
01:04:38,200 --> 01:04:39,960
Speaker 1: It's good to talk to you. I appreciate you going

1182
01:04:40,040 --> 01:04:44,160
Speaker 1: back and forth with me. I think it's hard to

1183
01:04:44,320 --> 01:04:47,840
Speaker 1: say you do that because I remember when those two

1184
01:04:47,960 --> 01:04:51,680
Speaker 1: situations were happening in the moment, and Billy, I don't

1185
01:04:51,720 --> 01:04:56,520
Speaker 1: remember a lot of people complaining. I don't remember a

1186
01:04:56,560 --> 01:04:59,600
Speaker 1: lot of people wanting him to go to UCLA. And

1187
01:04:59,720 --> 01:05:01,720
Speaker 1: I don't remember a lot of people wanting Stoops to

1188
01:05:01,840 --> 01:05:06,240
Speaker 1: leave after that Citrus bawl. Now, yeah, you're right. So

1189
01:05:06,440 --> 01:05:08,520
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, you know, And I would also say

1190
01:05:08,560 --> 01:05:11,760
Speaker 1: about Mitch, he looks like he nailed two basketball hires

1191
01:05:11,800 --> 01:05:15,000
Speaker 1: this last year. None of us even knew who Kenny

1192
01:05:15,040 --> 01:05:20,240
Speaker 1: Brooks was Mark Pope. Most people, myself included, weren't thrilled

1193
01:05:20,280 --> 01:05:23,880
Speaker 1: about the hire, And so far it looks pretty good.

1194
01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:27,320
Speaker 1: Who's next, Tory, Tory, go ahead, Tory.

1195
01:05:29,120 --> 01:05:31,200
Speaker 18: Yeah, man, that was brutal. Listen to part of the

1196
01:05:31,280 --> 01:05:33,400
Speaker 18: benefit of a podcast. I could just skip through that,

1197
01:05:33,480 --> 01:05:35,000
Speaker 18: but I just sit here and listen to that guy.

1198
01:05:35,120 --> 01:05:41,280
Speaker 18: But anyways, I'm pretty mad. I'm pretty mad, as you

1199
01:05:41,280 --> 01:05:43,760
Speaker 18: can probably tell, like most people are. I think you

1200
01:05:43,840 --> 01:05:46,160
Speaker 18: said something similar when Calip Perry was towards the end

1201
01:05:46,200 --> 01:05:49,240
Speaker 18: of his time here that I don't think the relationship

1202
01:05:49,360 --> 01:05:52,680
Speaker 18: between Stoops and his staff and what he puts on

1203
01:05:52,800 --> 01:05:55,520
Speaker 18: the field and the fans, I don't think it's it's

1204
01:05:55,600 --> 01:05:58,240
Speaker 18: untenable now. I don't think he can recover from.

1205
01:05:58,160 --> 01:06:01,440
Speaker 1: It's that bad. Gets that bad right now. I mean,

1206
01:06:01,800 --> 01:06:03,880
Speaker 1: do you think the Stoops thing is as bad as

1207
01:06:03,960 --> 01:06:05,439
Speaker 1: the cow thing was last year?

1208
01:06:07,280 --> 01:06:10,760
Speaker 18: Yeah? Because not not for any personal reason or like

1209
01:06:10,800 --> 01:06:12,080
Speaker 18: I'm not an ex's and o's guy.

1210
01:06:13,320 --> 01:06:13,920
Speaker 1: He's had like.

1211
01:06:14,000 --> 01:06:17,680
Speaker 18: Fifteen or sixteen different staffs since he got here in

1212
01:06:17,800 --> 01:06:22,080
Speaker 18: terms of like just primary coaches, just rotating, and he's

1213
01:06:22,120 --> 01:06:27,200
Speaker 18: created his culture of oops. And it's like Cutter comes

1214
01:06:27,240 --> 01:06:29,160
Speaker 18: in in the second and the second half. The first

1215
01:06:29,240 --> 01:06:32,200
Speaker 18: play he sacked for ten yards. The immediate first play

1216
01:06:32,240 --> 01:06:35,200
Speaker 18: he comes in immediately sacked. We got down to the

1217
01:06:35,280 --> 01:06:37,880
Speaker 18: one yard line on a mirapulous drive. We were on

1218
01:06:38,000 --> 01:06:40,640
Speaker 18: the one yard line, and that drive ended up with

1219
01:06:40,760 --> 01:06:43,160
Speaker 18: us missing a field goal from thirty three yards.

1220
01:06:44,000 --> 01:06:46,920
Speaker 6: Ooh, And I mean we just have to grin and

1221
01:06:47,080 --> 01:06:47,400
Speaker 6: bear it.

1222
01:06:48,080 --> 01:06:51,680
Speaker 8: And it's it's like if we get a pick six or.

1223
01:06:51,680 --> 01:06:55,800
Speaker 18: A big defensive play, it's Maxwell Harrison's given somebody what

1224
01:06:55,880 --> 01:06:57,880
Speaker 18: Willie on the opposite side of field, and that's fifteen

1225
01:06:57,960 --> 01:07:01,120
Speaker 18: yards and it's gone oop and we just have to

1226
01:07:01,200 --> 01:07:05,280
Speaker 18: sit here and watch it. And he's it's weaponized incompetence,

1227
01:07:05,520 --> 01:07:09,040
Speaker 18: and it's it's every game. It's like the question marks

1228
01:07:09,080 --> 01:07:11,280
Speaker 18: are trending on Twitter from the Kentucky media, just like

1229
01:07:11,400 --> 01:07:14,760
Speaker 18: what is this? And it's bad and you can there's

1230
01:07:14,800 --> 01:07:16,800
Speaker 18: so many people that it's like a laughing stock and

1231
01:07:16,880 --> 01:07:20,320
Speaker 18: has become a meme actually funny.

1232
01:07:20,480 --> 01:07:20,800
Speaker 7: It's hard.

1233
01:07:20,800 --> 01:07:23,360
Speaker 18: You'd be hard to script what happened in this game

1234
01:07:23,640 --> 01:07:26,040
Speaker 18: because the amount of times that, like the sinner just

1235
01:07:26,160 --> 01:07:29,160
Speaker 18: threw the ball over Cutter's head immediately after a big player,

1236
01:07:29,840 --> 01:07:37,600
Speaker 18: It's like you can't. Yeah, like you don't need to

1237
01:07:37,640 --> 01:07:39,400
Speaker 18: be in a situation where he has to catch it.

1238
01:07:39,560 --> 01:07:41,160
Speaker 18: Why don't you just play normal.

1239
01:07:40,960 --> 01:07:42,160
Speaker 1: Football and stop?

1240
01:07:42,360 --> 01:07:44,560
Speaker 18: I feel like Charlie Brown. I feel like Charlie Brown

1241
01:07:44,640 --> 01:07:47,000
Speaker 18: every week watching this team to spend one hundred times.

1242
01:07:48,360 --> 01:07:48,480
Speaker 16: There.

1243
01:07:48,520 --> 01:07:50,560
Speaker 1: I appreciate the call. I appreciate the call. I I

1244
01:07:50,680 --> 01:07:53,040
Speaker 1: don't disagree with some of what you said there. There

1245
01:07:53,200 --> 01:07:54,680
Speaker 1: is a kind of an oops.

1246
01:07:55,920 --> 01:07:55,960
Speaker 4: This.

1247
01:07:56,280 --> 01:07:59,360
Speaker 1: I don't personally think the stupid situation is where the

1248
01:07:59,440 --> 01:08:04,120
Speaker 1: cow sit you wation was last year like unredeemable with

1249
01:08:04,320 --> 01:08:07,520
Speaker 1: some fans. But maybe I'm wrong. I mean, it's hard

1250
01:08:07,560 --> 01:08:13,400
Speaker 1: to read, to be honest with you, it's hard to tell. Yeah,

1251
01:08:13,880 --> 01:08:16,080
Speaker 1: So I think a lot of it's going to penning

1252
01:08:16,160 --> 01:08:21,080
Speaker 1: what happens next week. Though, losing a Louisville is gonna

1253
01:08:21,200 --> 01:08:23,240
Speaker 1: not be good if it happens, but we could still win.

1254
01:08:23,360 --> 01:08:24,519
Speaker 1: I mean, they're very beatable.

1255
01:08:25,520 --> 01:08:28,599
Speaker 3: Who's up next is a funny visual though.

1256
01:08:28,720 --> 01:08:30,519
Speaker 1: That is a funny Georgia State. By the way, the

1257
01:08:30,560 --> 01:08:32,920
Speaker 1: team that beat Vandy. Do you know what their record

1258
01:08:33,080 --> 01:08:39,080
Speaker 1: is after having beaten Vandy to in eight and eight

1259
01:08:39,240 --> 01:08:41,240
Speaker 1: and one of their two wins is against a Vandy

1260
01:08:41,280 --> 01:08:43,400
Speaker 1: team that beat Alabama? All right, go.

1261
01:08:43,360 --> 01:08:47,320
Speaker 3: Ahead, last caller, Brad, Brad, go ahead, finished strong.

1262
01:08:49,479 --> 01:08:53,240
Speaker 17: He was up Fellows. I'm a jump on the bandwagon

1263
01:08:53,560 --> 01:08:56,439
Speaker 17: of the last caller. I'm right there where he is.

1264
01:08:58,040 --> 01:09:02,120
Speaker 17: We have become the universe of the moral victories.

1265
01:09:04,160 --> 01:09:05,479
Speaker 4: I'm the tired of it.

1266
01:09:06,040 --> 01:09:08,639
Speaker 17: I think at this point you'd have to get whoever

1267
01:09:08,720 --> 01:09:12,200
Speaker 17: you got to get in the room, the attorneys, whoever

1268
01:09:12,240 --> 01:09:13,920
Speaker 17: it is. They need to figure out a deal.

1269
01:09:14,960 --> 01:09:17,160
Speaker 1: And let's say, let me ask you a question, because again,

1270
01:09:17,240 --> 01:09:18,800
Speaker 1: I want you to I want to put you in

1271
01:09:18,920 --> 01:09:22,439
Speaker 1: the chair of the a D. Let's say, Mark Stoops,

1272
01:09:22,520 --> 01:09:25,960
Speaker 1: We're to say to you, what does that sound behind you?

1273
01:09:26,080 --> 01:09:30,360
Speaker 17: By the way, I probably my kids.

1274
01:09:31,040 --> 01:09:33,200
Speaker 1: Okay, Let's say let's say you were to sit in

1275
01:09:33,240 --> 01:09:36,640
Speaker 1: a room with Mark Stoops's agent and he said to you,

1276
01:09:37,520 --> 01:09:41,680
Speaker 1: we're not leaving unless you give us every dollar. And

1277
01:09:41,760 --> 01:09:45,160
Speaker 1: then you went to your boosters, your primary football boosters,

1278
01:09:45,200 --> 01:09:49,320
Speaker 1: and they said, we like Mark, we're not paying for it.

1279
01:09:49,920 --> 01:09:50,560
Speaker 1: What are you going to do?

1280
01:09:52,520 --> 01:09:56,040
Speaker 15: Well, that's why I think you know that DC. If

1281
01:09:56,040 --> 01:09:58,200
Speaker 15: we're getting a lot of money to be in these positions,

1282
01:09:58,479 --> 01:10:01,560
Speaker 15: and you got to figure out who and what you

1283
01:10:01,720 --> 01:10:04,400
Speaker 15: need to you know, come up with to come to

1284
01:10:04,520 --> 01:10:06,600
Speaker 15: the to the table to get what.

1285
01:10:06,640 --> 01:10:08,640
Speaker 1: If it doesn't exist? But what if it doesn't then

1286
01:10:08,720 --> 01:10:10,519
Speaker 1: what if it doesn't exist?

1287
01:10:11,240 --> 01:10:12,720
Speaker 8: Then then what?

1288
01:10:13,080 --> 01:10:14,800
Speaker 15: And then what I think you're going to have is

1289
01:10:15,280 --> 01:10:17,680
Speaker 15: that last guy, the last guy that called and me,

1290
01:10:18,000 --> 01:10:20,920
Speaker 15: You're gonna have a bunch of us as fans that

1291
01:10:21,200 --> 01:10:22,759
Speaker 15: probably are going to show.

1292
01:10:22,600 --> 01:10:24,519
Speaker 6: Up, maybe not at all.

1293
01:10:24,680 --> 01:10:29,360
Speaker 15: Maybe you know, I don't know what it is, but

1294
01:10:29,400 --> 01:10:31,599
Speaker 15: I mean it it's going to financially impact them.

1295
01:10:32,479 --> 01:10:34,439
Speaker 17: It's like they can just roll out.

1296
01:10:35,040 --> 01:10:37,280
Speaker 15: They can't just roll out any kind of product and

1297
01:10:37,400 --> 01:10:40,080
Speaker 15: just think people are going to keep coming back, because.

1298
01:10:39,840 --> 01:10:42,599
Speaker 17: Like he said, it's the Charlie Brown effect. Man, I'm tired.

1299
01:10:43,040 --> 01:10:45,680
Speaker 15: I'm tired of something, you know, watching these games and

1300
01:10:45,800 --> 01:10:48,679
Speaker 15: they do exactly what he said. They'll make a thirty

1301
01:10:48,760 --> 01:10:52,879
Speaker 15: yard bomb and the next play, you know, do a stupid,

1302
01:10:53,240 --> 01:10:54,799
Speaker 15: unsportsmanlike conduct.

1303
01:10:55,280 --> 01:10:55,439
Speaker 16: You know.

1304
01:10:56,240 --> 01:10:58,200
Speaker 1: No, I think you make a very valid point. I

1305
01:10:58,240 --> 01:10:59,880
Speaker 1: appreciate the call. That's a good one to end on.

1306
01:11:00,080 --> 01:11:04,519
Speaker 1: There's no easy answer because I usually focus on where

1307
01:11:04,560 --> 01:11:06,640
Speaker 1: would you get the money? There is something on the

1308
01:11:06,680 --> 01:11:09,080
Speaker 1: other side, which is, if you roll everything out the

1309
01:11:09,120 --> 01:11:10,880
Speaker 1: same again next year, how do you get people to

1310
01:11:10,920 --> 01:11:13,920
Speaker 1: buy in. It's a fair point, completely fair point, and

1311
01:11:14,000 --> 01:11:16,519
Speaker 1: I don't know. That's why I am a little bit

1312
01:11:16,600 --> 01:11:22,640
Speaker 1: pessimistic about the state of the program because I don't know.

1313
01:11:22,920 --> 01:11:26,479
Speaker 1: I don't know that there's an easy answer, and that's

1314
01:11:26,520 --> 01:11:27,920
Speaker 1: why I said what I said to start.

1315
01:11:28,520 --> 01:11:28,680
Speaker 18: Man.

1316
01:11:29,000 --> 01:11:34,640
Speaker 1: Mark's been great here and I hope that if he

1317
01:11:34,800 --> 01:11:37,080
Speaker 1: ends up coming back, he approaches this in a way

1318
01:11:37,520 --> 01:11:40,280
Speaker 1: that sounds differently than he's approached it the last year.

1319
01:11:40,439 --> 01:11:45,200
Speaker 1: Because I can't reiterate enough how much this world of

1320
01:11:45,320 --> 01:11:48,880
Speaker 1: college football is about to change and those who are

1321
01:11:48,960 --> 01:11:51,840
Speaker 1: on the cutting edge that's going to be what the

1322
01:11:51,960 --> 01:11:55,479
Speaker 1: next twenty years are. So I hope we can get

1323
01:11:55,560 --> 01:11:57,920
Speaker 1: to a point one way or the other that we

1324
01:11:58,080 --> 01:12:00,439
Speaker 1: get there. Billy, thank you very much. We went a

1325
01:12:00,479 --> 01:12:02,599
Speaker 1: little long tonight, but that's because it was a good show,

1326
01:12:02,680 --> 01:12:05,280
Speaker 1: good callers. It's probably the best set of callers we've

1327
01:12:05,320 --> 01:12:06,840
Speaker 1: had for one of these in a while. So thank

1328
01:12:06,880 --> 01:12:11,519
Speaker 1: you all. We will see you on Monday, Monday in studio.

1329
01:12:11,760 --> 01:12:14,080
Speaker 1: Tuesday and Wednesday we will be at the bar.

1330
01:12:14,280 --> 01:12:16,760
Speaker 3: Actually, if you are Wednesday, we're on a remote in

1331
01:12:16,880 --> 01:12:18,559
Speaker 3: Glasgow for Don Franklin.

1332
01:12:20,320 --> 01:12:23,240
Speaker 1: You're telling me you're sending me to Glasgow right before

1333
01:12:23,360 --> 01:12:26,679
Speaker 1: thanks for Thanksgiving break, Yes, that decision.

1334
01:12:27,360 --> 01:12:29,200
Speaker 3: Well, it's been on the schedule for a couple of months.

1335
01:12:29,960 --> 01:12:31,639
Speaker 1: I thought we were going to London so I could

1336
01:12:31,680 --> 01:12:32,599
Speaker 1: get it on my way home.

1337
01:12:32,720 --> 01:12:34,599
Speaker 3: Now it's actually the opposite direction.

1338
01:12:36,439 --> 01:12:40,840
Speaker 1: You're sending me the opposite direction of my home for Thanksgiving.

1339
01:12:41,120 --> 01:12:42,600
Speaker 3: Day before Thanksgiving.

1340
01:12:43,560 --> 01:12:47,400
Speaker 1: What all right, I'm just gonna and we'll wrap it

1341
01:12:47,520 --> 01:12:51,679
Speaker 1: up with that, all right, Happy Saturday night, everybody. We'll

1342
01:12:51,720 --> 01:12:55,320
Speaker 1: see you later. This has been the local TOYSR Post

1343
01:12:55,400 --> 01:12:55,880
Speaker 1: Gitting Show
