Speaker 3: On Tuesday, April fifteenth, it is tax day. Although if
Speaker 3: you're in Kentucky you really you may not know this,
Speaker 3: but you've gotten toil November to turn your taxes in
Speaker 3: this year.
Speaker 4: I'm waiting.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they gave us Kentucky an exemption because of all
Speaker 3: the flooding, but they didn't really report it. I don't
Speaker 3: think they wanted people to wait. One of people going
Speaker 3: to try to do it today, but you got an
Speaker 3: exemption today. That voice you heard was Drew Franklin. I'm
Speaker 3: Ryan Leman. We got Shannon T Dude over in Louisville
Speaker 3: as always Connects Sports Radio sponsored by the TJ. Smith Office,
Speaker 3: called TJ what happens, Shannon, He'll make them pay. He'll
Speaker 3: make them pay by the end of the day. We
Speaker 3: hope to announce our Whiskey Thief call today that we'll
Speaker 3: be calling in on the Clark's Puppet Shop phone line
Speaker 3: which is eight five nine two, eight h two to
Speaker 3: eighty seven and the Avision Glass Tech machine already buzzing
Speaker 3: this morning my cell phone because there may or may
Speaker 3: not be some stuff shaking in the UK basketball roster today. Drew,
Speaker 3: we got got a little tip that maybe things are
Speaker 3: about to happen, but no confirmation yet. It's got to
Speaker 3: be Lamar Wilkinson.
Speaker 4: Right, Well, I didn't get a tip. You gotta tell
Speaker 4: me what you know. I don't know anything. I'm like
Speaker 4: everyone else waiting for something, but no one has given
Speaker 4: me a tip.
Speaker 3: Now, what's let heat? He announced. He narrowed his choice
Speaker 3: to two.
Speaker 4: Down down to your Indiana Hoosiers and Mike Kentucky Wildcats.
Speaker 3: Okay, that's an easy choice. That's an easy, cooly choice.
Speaker 4: I don't even know what he's got to think about
Speaker 4: on that one.
Speaker 2: Do we want to go ahead and announce it now
Speaker 2: that he's coming to Kentucky.
Speaker 3: Well, let's just wait. Maybe by the end of the
Speaker 3: show we'll get a little more a better confirmation on it.
Speaker 3: But I think some things are shaking, things are moving
Speaker 3: right now, and we may may or may not have
Speaker 3: some news about Lamar Wilkerson by the end of the
Speaker 3: day or hopefully soon. And if we talked about yesterday, Drew,
Speaker 3: he could be he could be the missing piece, you know,
Speaker 3: the shooter that kind of this rostering really needs.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he canceled his Auburn visit, which is big Bruce
Speaker 4: holding another L Bruce holding a lot of l's this
Speaker 4: portal season. I guess he's gonna go home and think
Speaker 4: about it. Jack Pilgrim reported that on our board last night,
Speaker 4: pray on a little bit talk with family, but he
Speaker 4: is down to the Hoosiers and Cats. And as you said, man,
Speaker 4: if you if I'm looking at a table in front
Speaker 4: of me, and in one paper says bloomings In and
Speaker 4: one says Lexington. And I just went to Keenland and
Speaker 4: pranced around with a winning horse in the winter Circle
Speaker 4: and had a great day like that, surrounded by Kentucky
Speaker 4: fans screaming at me to go to UK. I don't
Speaker 4: think I have to do much praying or thinking. I
Speaker 4: would have made the call before I left town. But
Speaker 4: that's that's what we're waiting to pop. Whatever he decides, there'd.
Speaker 3: Be a good pull. He's cause they're the best shooter
Speaker 3: in the portal. Last year you got Kobe Brea, who
Speaker 3: because they're the best shooter in the portal. We saw
Speaker 3: what happened with Brea. Which, by the way, Kobe Brea
Speaker 3: showed up on an NBA draft board last night.
Speaker 4: He did he's UH in the fifties range fifty fourth.
Speaker 4: Maybe I don't have that one off the top of
Speaker 4: my head, but it was in the fifties. Yes, first
Speaker 4: time we've seen a cat in the UH in the
Speaker 4: projections for for June.
Speaker 3: So we I'm sure Pope can say, look what we
Speaker 3: did for Kobe Brea. He was not gonna be drafted
Speaker 3: until he came here. Now he's gonna possibly get drafted
Speaker 3: in the second round. We can do the same for you. Uh.
Speaker 3: I don't know. I just feel like I I like
Speaker 3: my I like Pope chances in this. But it's coming
Speaker 3: down between Kentucky and Indiana. He was here all weekend.
Speaker 3: I just I just feel good about it.
Speaker 4: I feel pretty good too. I'd like for it to
Speaker 4: happen sooner than later. I don't want him to get
Speaker 4: home and sit around and let the newness of the
Speaker 4: Kentucky visit wear off and let him take more calls.
Speaker 4: I wish you'd go ahead and get it done. But
Speaker 4: it seems Kentucky is all about him and all on,
Speaker 4: all in on him as the shooting role, whereas Indiana
Speaker 4: yesterday even reached out to another. So if you're reading
Speaker 4: Tea leaves, maybe Indiana is is panicking and going to
Speaker 4: a second option. But hopefully he gets it done by
Speaker 4: the end of today.
Speaker 5: Let's go.
Speaker 4: Let's ahead knock this out. What are we waiting for?
Speaker 3: That's not a good look, Shannon. When your team you're
Speaker 3: considering is going out and looking for another one already,
Speaker 3: maybe they're thinking that they're not they're not going to
Speaker 3: get him.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean if it were Kentucky and Auburn, you know,
Speaker 2: a team that just went to the final four. I
Speaker 2: would go, well, you know, maybe there's a chance that
Speaker 2: we don't get this player. But Kentucky and Indiana, I mean,
Speaker 2: could you make it more obvious, like why why would
Speaker 2: you go to India? If if he goes to Indiana,
Speaker 2: I will be absolutely shocked. They must have some really
Speaker 2: good Nile money. If he's going to Indiana over Kentucky.
Speaker 2: I just don't want to.
Speaker 3: Don't know why. Coach, You know, you get a factor
Speaker 3: that in new coach over there in Indiana.
Speaker 2: Tucky's got a new coach.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Kentucky has proven success with its coach.
Speaker 3: Try we had one year of good, good coaching. They
Speaker 3: got a new coach coming in Indiana.
Speaker 4: Hadn't been good since since you were going to Bob
Speaker 4: Knight's camp. I mean, what's there to go see in Bloomington.
Speaker 4: Maybe they can offer a little bit more money, but
Speaker 4: you you're gonna disappear not playing the tournament. They had
Speaker 4: plenty of guys making lots of money last year and
Speaker 4: look where that got him. So be smart. Be the
Speaker 4: final piece in Kentucky's roster. Be the shooter. To go
Speaker 4: with all the other pieces mark Popaz and be a
Speaker 4: part of something special.
Speaker 3: So let's let let let's play the game. Let's let's play.
Speaker 3: Let's play the game. The Kentucky gets Wickerson today, what's
Speaker 3: our starting lineup? Let's go ahead and start debating it.
Speaker 3: You got Lowe point, Wickerson and Otega, Yeah, both those guys.
Speaker 4: Yeah. I leen Diubaughte just because I don't think he
Speaker 4: would have left Alabama to go off the benchikin somewhere else.
Speaker 4: Maybe maybe the big Croatian steals it from him, or
Speaker 4: over Tom you know, takes it from him. But I
Speaker 4: think I think he will start at the four, and
Speaker 4: then Garrison.
Speaker 3: Garrison at the five.
Speaker 4: I think that's your five. If Wilkerson commits.
Speaker 3: And if Jaden Quaintons gets healthy.
Speaker 4: Yeah he can. He can make his way into the line.
Speaker 4: He'll need a little while coming off the acl, even
Speaker 4: if he's up and running by September like he wants
Speaker 4: to be. I still think he might take a while,
Speaker 4: a little while getting acquainted with college basketball again. But uh,
Speaker 4: he will probably overtake Garrison, depending how Garrison makes a jump.
Speaker 4: But a lot of depth in the front courd. You
Speaker 4: could you could throw those in a hat and mix
Speaker 4: them up and do pretty well with the pieces of
Speaker 4: po pas. But I think low Wilkerson. If he commits
Speaker 4: and Oway or slotted in.
Speaker 3: There, is Wilkerson our potential leading scorer.
Speaker 4: No always always got I mean, he's your shooter. He'll
Speaker 4: he'll still out there and make shots, but would alway
Speaker 4: have double figures in every game. But like two last year.
Speaker 4: I mean, Oway will be one of the best players
Speaker 4: in college basketball. Away it will be your leading scorer again.
Speaker 4: But uh uh, you know, obviously he doesn't shoot it
Speaker 4: as well loaded and have a great percentage last year.
Speaker 4: So Wilkerson will be needed to make shots.
Speaker 3: If O take it, can improve his three point shot,
Speaker 3: He's he'll get drafted next year.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's got to fix that. Fix that little hitch
Speaker 4: he's got going on. It's a slow release. It's not pretty.
Speaker 4: Michael Kidd Gilchrist, he was second picking the draft years ago.
Speaker 4: Game was a little different then, but his shot was
Speaker 4: pretty broken too, so maybe someone would take a flyer
Speaker 4: on him. But he will need to work on that
Speaker 4: this this offseason.
Speaker 3: We wait on the Lamar Wickerson decision and of course
Speaker 3: the NBA draft A year from now with those guys,
Speaker 3: we did have a cat get drafted last night. How
Speaker 3: about Georgia Amore Shannon going to the Mystics going to
Speaker 3: the Washington Mixed six pick overall we talked about yesterday.
Speaker 3: They some projections had her maybe going ten. So yeah,
Speaker 3: was a little bit of surprise she got pixel high
Speaker 3: at six.
Speaker 4: I think it was. She was kind of fringe top
Speaker 4: ten player in the mock drafts and you here go
Speaker 4: six to the Washington Mystics. I guess we're all Mystics fans. Yes. Actually, yesterday,
Speaker 4: about two hours before the draft, I booked a flight
Speaker 4: to Washington, DC for something else. It just so happens
Speaker 4: I land at three o'clock on the day of the
Speaker 4: Mystics home opener. I don't think I could go to
Speaker 4: the game, but I will definitely pop in the Mystics
Speaker 4: store and see if I can get some Amore rookie
Speaker 4: gear on her debut day. But a little bit of
Speaker 4: a coincidence for me there though. I just happened to
Speaker 4: be landing a few hours before she plays her first
Speaker 4: game in Washington. You know I'm a big Mystics fan.
Speaker 4: Now we all missed by far my favorite WNBA team
Speaker 4: they had.
Speaker 3: I think like three of the first six picks Mystics had, Yeah,
Speaker 3: and then so they were just liberally just loading up.
Speaker 3: So maybe they were a good young team that we
Speaker 3: all can't kind of adopt to watch them grow.
Speaker 2: They're gonna be my adopted team, you know. I think
Speaker 2: about how much she meant to this Kentucky team last
Speaker 2: year and how she just willed them to a win
Speaker 2: there in the first round of the the NCAA tournament
Speaker 2: that we watched in the Milwaukee food court on my
Speaker 2: phone that day. But yeah, I'm really happy for her.
Speaker 2: I also wanted to ask Drew, you know, your boy,
Speaker 2: Russell Westbrook was there with her, you know, didn't you
Speaker 2: have some.
Speaker 3: Beef with him?
Speaker 2: We were talking on the pre show. I was trying
Speaker 2: to remember the beef, but I think weren't we in
Speaker 2: like Oklahoma City And he was like after the game,
Speaker 2: and he was taking a picture and he kept trying
Speaker 2: to get the right shot, and you tweeted out that
Speaker 2: he was standing there for twenty minutes trying to get
Speaker 2: a Tell me the story, because I'm trying to remember it.
Speaker 4: I don't know if i'd call it beef it was.
Speaker 3: It was slightly.
Speaker 4: It was more like a ground turkey. We weren't all
Speaker 4: the way into beef the light version. Yeah, we were
Speaker 4: all sitting around. We had done the postgame show in
Speaker 4: the Thunders Arena, and he and his friend we're having
Speaker 4: a full on photo shoot. But he was doing those
Speaker 4: photos where he's like looking away, pretended to not know
Speaker 4: that there are pictures being taken off him.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Cool, and then yeah, and then he would get the
Speaker 4: phone and you could see him. He'd shrug, and then
Speaker 4: he'd step back and he'd do it again. He'd look
Speaker 4: up and then he'd take the phone from his friend.
Speaker 4: I didn't like that one. Let's do it one more time.
Speaker 4: And it just happened over and over and over again.
Speaker 4: I just said something to you all, like how many
Speaker 4: pictures of this man going to take? So then I
Speaker 4: didn't even tweet about it or anything at that point,
Speaker 4: I just thought it was bizarre. I mean, it probably
Speaker 4: took a hundred photos. Man, you just played a game.
Speaker 4: You can go on home, but just one after another.
Speaker 4: And then in our car ride in Texas, you know,
Speaker 4: we're out there with the tumbleweeds blowing around and I'm
Speaker 4: just scrolling Twitter, and he had posted the picture, and
Speaker 4: I just kind of commented, like, you know, took a
Speaker 4: few tries or a thousands take or something like that,
Speaker 4: and he fired back of me. He was not happy.
Speaker 4: I forgot exactly what he said, but he he was
Speaker 4: looking for trouble, or I guess trying to give me trouble.
Speaker 4: But I was just commenting on how long it took
Speaker 4: to perfect that photo. He pretended it wasn't being taken.
Speaker 4: So we had a little bit of back and forth.
Speaker 4: I think I replied, you're not mad at me, you're
Speaker 4: mad at Kevin Durant, because Durant had just left. The
Speaker 4: thunder at that point. Might have poked the bear a
Speaker 4: little bit, but yeah, it was a fun little back
Speaker 4: and forth. That day. We were bored on a KSR
Speaker 4: road trip. I'm in the back seat. I had to
Speaker 4: have a little back and forth with Russ.
Speaker 3: It entertained us all for a little while. You're going
Speaker 3: back and forth with Russell Westbrook.
Speaker 4: I didn't mean to. I was just noting that it
Speaker 4: took several tries to get the photo that he pretended
Speaker 4: he wasn't posing for. I did, like, I'm not anti Westbrook.
Speaker 4: That was years ago. I did like that he styled
Speaker 4: George A. Moore last night because that was a big
Speaker 4: part of the broadcast. She got a lot of attention
Speaker 4: last night, not just for that, but she was a
Speaker 4: big part of it. Even Holly Row mentioned being taller
Speaker 4: than Georgia. Why are we taking shots at her height?
Speaker 4: Just got picked six and you're talking about being taller
Speaker 4: than her. I didn't love that. And someone else on
Speaker 4: the set mentioned what's better a three or a floater?
Speaker 4: And Georgia's like, too soon coming off the floater she
Speaker 4: had just missed. So there was a few parts of
Speaker 4: the broadcast where they needled her a little bit. But
Speaker 4: I liked the Westbrook thing. That was cool.
Speaker 3: Did you like the outfit she had on Shannon that
Speaker 3: Russell Westbrook designed for Oh?
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I'm the fashion expert here, so I
Speaker 2: think she was. She was fashionably dressed for the draft.
Speaker 2: I really liked it. I mean, could you see yourself
Speaker 2: maybe wearing something like that?
Speaker 4: Ryan?
Speaker 3: You know, No, I don't know if I could pull
Speaker 3: that off. But like Drew said, it was a big
Speaker 3: part of the broadcast. They made a bit on the
Speaker 3: red carpet. They made a big deal about her wearing
Speaker 3: Russell Westbrook design clothes.
Speaker 4: He was there.
Speaker 3: He was there. I got pictured with her on the
Speaker 3: red carpet and stuff, so it was kind of a
Speaker 3: big deal last.
Speaker 2: Time he was doing If it's not free, you're not
Speaker 2: gonna wear it.
Speaker 3: We already know, sure right yeah, free as me.
Speaker 4: Big for recruiting too. Kenny Brooks was there, you know
Speaker 4: for many years cal that was a huge recruiting tool.
Speaker 4: He'd make sure he was in the green room every
Speaker 4: time and got seen on TV. Kenny Brooks got to
Speaker 4: do that last night, so I'm sure he will use
Speaker 4: those photos in the experience on the recruiting trail.
Speaker 3: And her parents were there from Australia. She talked about
Speaker 3: how she hadn't seen her family and so long, and
Speaker 3: they came in for her senior day. I obviously stuck
Speaker 3: around for the draft night. So very happy for Georgia.
Speaker 3: Aymore getting Draft six overall last night by the Washington Biscuits.
Speaker 4: Mystic miscits, miskets, no mystics. I have a lot to
Speaker 4: learn about the mystics. I knew they existed. It's about
Speaker 4: all I could I could tell you. We'll get it
Speaker 4: figure out, though.
Speaker 3: I was trying when I was watching the broadcast, they'd say,
Speaker 3: who has the next pick? I'm trying to know if
Speaker 3: I knew their nicknames most of them, I don't. Well,
Speaker 3: I knew the La Sparks.
Speaker 4: That's where she was projected to go. We thought she
Speaker 4: might be heading to LA.
Speaker 3: And the new team is the VALKYRIESE Golden State Valkyries.
Speaker 3: Look at you, what's the Atlanta team?
Speaker 4: Uh? The Oh crap, I just wrote this in the morning,
Speaker 4: because she plays Ron Howard and the opener.
Speaker 3: Plays them dream, the Atlanta Dream, the Indiana fever. Fever.
Speaker 4: Georgia actually opens her career at Indiana playing Caitlin Clark.
Speaker 4: Her home opener is the one against Ron Howard, So
Speaker 4: two marquee matchups to open her w NBA c.
Speaker 2: Here you go, right, I've got the entire w NBA
Speaker 2: team list. You want to see if you can name
Speaker 2: the mascot to go along with the So you already
Speaker 2: said Atlanta.
Speaker 4: Right, We've done Atlanta, We've done LA, and we've done Washington.
Speaker 3: All the ones that I know, I don't know any
Speaker 3: other one.
Speaker 2: How about Ryan or Drew Chicago.
Speaker 4: Oh that's Scott, that's Hayley. Van Lift is going to
Speaker 4: Scott that's correct.
Speaker 3: He was a big deal last night.
Speaker 2: How about Connecticut.
Speaker 4: There's some others you'll get son, there you go, you go.
Speaker 2: You already said Indiana, New York. Do we say that one?
Speaker 4: That was the pretty easiest.
Speaker 2: There you go, said Washington, Domestic, Dallas.
Speaker 4: This one's kind of tough.
Speaker 3: Cowboys Wings, Wings's got them all.
Speaker 4: I think I could do the Holy You.
Speaker 2: Already said Golden State, Las Vegas.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I do that one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we already said La Sparks. How about Minnesota, This
Speaker 2: is a tough.

Speaker 3: How about that? All right?
Speaker 2: Two more Phoenix, Mercury, Yes, Seattle mmmm Storm, Yes, Yeah,
Speaker 2: you got them.
Speaker 4: Listen, we're basically a w NBA show. I will say
Speaker 4: I couldn't have done half that two years ago. They've
Speaker 4: come a long way. Caylen Clark's a big part of that.
Speaker 4: But I could not have done the w NBA teams.
Speaker 2: There's one more future team coming that I don't think
Speaker 2: anybody will get. Toronto.
Speaker 4: Oh, I don't know that idea tempo it wrapped hers.
Speaker 4: That's a good one that they should have called me.
Speaker 3: I've said this from the show. There's a guy in
Speaker 3: Lexton that had at one time the naming rights if
Speaker 3: they ever came to Lexington like he had the bought
Speaker 3: the rights to name the WA team in Lexton. I
Speaker 3: don't know if he still has it, but I know
Speaker 3: he did at one time.
Speaker 4: We'll bring a team that'd be fun on it. I'm
Speaker 4: still a Mystics fan though.
Speaker 3: We're all shirts.
Speaker 4: Did I need to get you all shirts when I
Speaker 4: when I get to DC. Maybe some foam fingers?
Speaker 3: Oh, I want whatever. Georgia Amore's number is with her

Speaker 3: go right to them. This is for for scoop slash
Speaker 3: breaking news. A new Long John Silvers is being built
Speaker 3: on Nicholasville Road next to Scooter's Coffee. Is this true?
Speaker 4: I did see rumblings of a new Long John's coming
Speaker 4: to Lexington.
Speaker 3: Because as of right now there's not one. I don't believe.
Speaker 4: Nope, I know Freddy had to When Freddy would get it,
Speaker 4: he had to go to Paris, maybe Mount Sterling, somewhere
Speaker 4: a little bit outside of Electing to get it. So yeah,
Speaker 4: this will be the first one in Leson in a while.
Speaker 3: Shannon, how many how many Long John Silvers are still
Speaker 3: up in Louisville?
Speaker 4: A few?
Speaker 2: I don't know the exact number, but they're they're few
Speaker 2: and far between. Not a whole lot of them still
Speaker 2: around here. You're a big fan of apparently right Well.
Speaker 3: Growing up in Indiana, the only two fast food restaurants
Speaker 3: close to Well, Indiana were Jasper and Donald's and Along
Speaker 3: John Silvers and that was it. Heild they got a drugs,
Speaker 3: but Long John Silvers was huge back in the day.
Speaker 4: Big Sinny getting the drillers. We in Madisonville, we had
Speaker 4: a Long John. Any Captain D's kind of like there's
Speaker 4: a divide you like one of the other. Do you
Speaker 4: prefer Long John since you had it not well or
Speaker 4: you got a got a stronger.
Speaker 3: There are some things I like him both seriously. Like
Speaker 3: first of all, we go to Long John Silvers. You
Speaker 3: have to get what do you call them, the crunchies.
Speaker 4: You can just order crunches of crunchies. That's healthy.
Speaker 3: That's good stuff right there.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's on the.
Speaker 2: Food crust is all the degrees and everything in it.
Speaker 4: Help us clean out our friar by eating these random
Speaker 4: pieces that got held back.
Speaker 3: So that's all one. Text on avias and glass text.
Speaker 3: See here's the other one. This is from your part
Speaker 3: of the world. Drew Webster County High School Jackson Edens
Speaker 3: broke the state all time stolen base record last night
Speaker 3: with one hundred and sixty seven career steals. I mean,
Speaker 3: if you play four years of high school baseball, that's
Speaker 3: all over forty a year. I'm just taking this person
Speaker 3: ads word. They just sent this to us on the
Speaker 3: text machine. Could be totally false, but one hundred and
Speaker 3: sixty seven stolen bases in your high school career is amazing.
Speaker 4: That's impressive. That's impressive. Happy for my from my neighbor there,
Speaker 4: they had some good baseball teams when I was in
Speaker 4: did they in? Uh? In high school? Nothing like? Still
Speaker 4: in that many bases in four seasons though. It sounds
Speaker 4: like a young Ryan Leman.
Speaker 2: How many did you have Ryan in high school?
Speaker 3: I probably only had sixty. This dude had one hundred
Speaker 3: more than me in high school.
Speaker 4: You better hope he doesn't go to Wesleyan. All that
Speaker 4: records in jeopardy.
Speaker 3: It's funny think about that.
Speaker 4: You better get in between him and any Wesleyan scholarships
Speaker 4: if you want to protect your history and your legacy.
Speaker 3: And here's the other congratulations graduation too. You know you're
Speaker 3: wester County.
Speaker 4: If that really happened, if someone machine made it.
Speaker 3: Up, and there here's the one on the avision glass
Speaker 3: Tex machine. Tell Shannon, thanks, I just picture Ryan in
Speaker 3: a Georgia outfit.
Speaker 2: In the Georgia outfit, I can see that we could
Speaker 2: we could do a reenactment with Ryan in the which
Speaker 2: where those like leather. What exactly was that that she
Speaker 2: was wearing.
Speaker 3: I don't know, but she said on the interview that
Speaker 3: she helped him kinda decide what kind of look she
Speaker 3: wanted and then he just went with the material and
Speaker 3: kind of picked it out and put it together for Yeah.
Speaker 4: I don't know how you would describe that. I don't
Speaker 4: think you could pull that off. It was kinda I
Speaker 4: really don't know. It's kind of like a leather jacket
Speaker 4: and I don't wait, I'd love to see you in it,
Speaker 4: but I don't know what you would call it. Russell's
Speaker 4: He's He's known as a fashion guy around the NBA.
Speaker 4: So that was a good collab for her help further
Speaker 4: her brand and marketing value there she gets into the league.
Speaker 3: It's become such a big deal for the NBA Draft
Speaker 3: and now the WNBA Draft. What you wear to walk
Speaker 3: up to get your jersey and get your photo taken
Speaker 3: with the commissioner.
Speaker 4: Well, not just the draft, the NBA is basically half
Speaker 4: of its fashion now. You know they take pictures of
Speaker 4: them walking in Uh, that's a big part of basketball
Speaker 4: culture these days.
Speaker 2: It's amazing to go back to like, was it the
Speaker 2: two thousand and three NBA Draft. Everybody's wearing like the
Speaker 2: oversized suits.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, until look.
Speaker 2: Get what you know now?
Speaker 3: The yeah Kyrie no, not Kyrie Lebron they all have
Speaker 3: oh yeah, yeah, Carmel.
Speaker 4: They looked like kids wearing their dad's seat, like the
Speaker 4: little rascals going to rob a banker's.
Speaker 3: They had shoulder pads in their shoulders.
Speaker 4: Yeah. Well, I have a feeling a lot of the
Speaker 4: fashion we see now it will get made fun of
Speaker 4: in ten to twenty years. Also.
Speaker 3: Uh so, speaking of the NBA, the NBA Playing Tournament
Speaker 3: starts today tonight. There's two games tonight, two games tomorrow.
Speaker 3: And if I understand, they just play one game. You win,
Speaker 3: you're in. You lose, you're out. So there's two games tonight.
Speaker 3: We got to pick our games for our DraftKings segment.
Speaker 4: Do you do you have the odds pulled up?
Speaker 3: I do not have the odds, but I have the games,
Speaker 3: all right?
Speaker 4: Well, okay, I can get the odds while while you
Speaker 4: read the games.
Speaker 3: First game is the Hawks and the Magic.
Speaker 4: All right, quick googling here looks like the Magic are
Speaker 4: a five and a half point favorite.
Speaker 3: I don't know if I could name you one magic player.
Speaker 4: Well, we hate the Hawks right now. I don't know
Speaker 4: if you saw you know Terrence man.
Speaker 3: Is, I've heard that name.
Speaker 4: He plays for the Hawks, and he talked trash about
Speaker 4: Tyler Elis on Twitter this weekend and he got so
Speaker 4: much backlash he deleted the tweet. Even Arkansas fans and
Speaker 4: Kentucky fans came together to defend Tyler Eulis against Terrence man.
Speaker 3: What was what was he got against Tyler?
Speaker 4: He he became like a GM of his alma mater,
Speaker 4: and he he had been critical about players want a
Speaker 4: lot of money when they only averaged seven points, and
Speaker 4: Tyler tweeted, like this dude averages seven points, what's he
Speaker 4: talking about? And then he replied you could never make
Speaker 4: it in the NBA anyway, something like that. So once
Speaker 4: once he went at Tyler Eulis, I think he had
Speaker 4: some some regrets because that tweet got deleted pretty quickly.
Speaker 4: So that's my long way of saying out on the Hawks.
Speaker 4: Terrence man you gotta go home.
Speaker 3: We're all We're all with the Orlando Magic tonight, Shan
Speaker 3: who you got?
Speaker 2: I got the Hawks?
Speaker 3: Give me the Hawks on the other game.
Speaker 2: We're all with the magic. You didn't ask me, he
Speaker 2: didn't even ask what I thought.
Speaker 3: Well, I thought you'd take up for your boy Tyler
Speaker 3: Eulis and go anti Hawks like the rest of us.
Speaker 2: Well, I'm just look, it's not about Ulyss, it's about who.
Speaker 2: I think he's gonna win the game. I think the
Speaker 2: Hawks will win tonight.
Speaker 6: That's it.
Speaker 4: Jacob Toppin scored seventeen points for the Hawks in the
Speaker 4: regular season finale, so he checked in to remind everyone
Speaker 4: he's still out there.
Speaker 3: Well, I watched the Pelicans game Saturday night, and not
Speaker 3: only was Antonio Ruves playing.
Speaker 4: So was Keon Brooks. Had a few big games. This
Speaker 4: about that this point in the year. I mean, good
Speaker 4: for them that they get called up and get those minutes.
Speaker 4: But it's kind of like the G League at this
Speaker 4: point in the season. A lot of guys who don't
Speaker 4: get that call in the rest of the year. They
Speaker 4: that last week they get in and get some run.
Speaker 4: But that mean they both took advantage of it. That's
Speaker 4: a big game. Not trying to trash him there. It
Speaker 4: could could help them moving forward for next season.
Speaker 3: Because Oscar I think had a couple of big games
Speaker 3: when he finally got to played for the Jazz. Right
Speaker 3: he's playing for the Jazz.
Speaker 4: Oscar's rebounding numbers are just as insane as they were
Speaker 4: at Kentucky. It's crazy what he's able to do.
Speaker 3: In the one team. Not find a spot for a
Speaker 3: guy that's got that skill set.
Speaker 4: I think he has like four or five g League
Speaker 4: games with twenty five rebounds. More twenty rebounds are more incredible.
Speaker 3: The other game tonight, the Grizzly and the Warriors. I'm
Speaker 3: surprised the Golden State Warriors are in the playing game.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I gotta go with the Warriors here spread seven
Speaker 4: and a half. Though that's a big spread. I'll actually
Speaker 4: say Grizzlies cover the spread, but Warriors have to advance.
Speaker 4: We need them in the playoffs.
Speaker 2: Shannon, I agree with Drew on this one. Give me
Speaker 2: Golden State.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Golden State, they cover. I can't believe they're in
Speaker 3: the playing game. Do we know anybody on the Grizzlies?
Speaker 4: John Morand Yeah, although there's no cats on the Grizzlies,
Speaker 4: but I mean he's their leader. You got Kevin Knox
Speaker 4: with the Warriors, so there's a cat playing tonight.
Speaker 3: I didn't know he was with the Warriors. Is Michael
Speaker 3: Mulder still with the Warriors?
Speaker 4: Is not? Michael Mulder is not still friends with his
Speaker 4: dad on Facebook. So I get shout out to Randy.
Speaker 4: I get to see lots of Michael Mulder updates, but
Speaker 4: he is no longer in Golden State.
Speaker 3: So there's your Draftking segment. The playing game start tonight
Speaker 3: and tomorrow night. Two more games tomorrow night. We'll take
Speaker 3: our break. Come back. Phone lines are open eight five
Speaker 3: nine two eight oh two two eighty seven. Ryan, Drew
Speaker 3: and Shannon were right back. This is k Tekey Sports Radio.
Speaker 2: TJ Smith Personal injury attorney call TJ. He'll make them
Speaker 2: pay now more Kentucky Sports. It's radio presented by Stockton Mortgage.
Speaker 2: Here's Matt Jones.
Speaker 3: This is obviously Bruce Springsteen and his buddy that he
Speaker 3: wrote this song about just passed away, like in the
Speaker 3: past week or two. Do you see that, Shannon. I
Speaker 3: just saw something on social media with his high school friend.
Speaker 3: It was the pitcher that could throw a speedball by
Speaker 3: you had just passed away.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't know that that was an actual true story.
Speaker 2: You know the song Glory Days but yeah, I'm sad
Speaker 2: to hear that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, although I don't really know what a speedball is fastball,
Speaker 3: you know, have you ever heard it called a speedball ever?
Speaker 3: Other than this song?
Speaker 2: No, I don't think I have mean neither much be
Speaker 2: easier to sing, I don't know.
Speaker 3: Eight nine two eight h two two eighty seven. Got
Speaker 3: some people on hold. We want to get you as
Speaker 3: soon as that possible. But while we're talking about baseball,
Speaker 3: we got a watch party here today at KS Bar
Speaker 3: and Grill Drew UK Baseball Plates at Miam of Ohio
Speaker 3: at seven o'clock. It's on the road, so we'll have
Speaker 3: it on TV here if you want to come watch
Speaker 3: the game, have a little UK Baseball watch party tonight.
Speaker 4: Oh that's exciting. I didn't know it was away. I
Speaker 4: just assumed it was home, so that's breaking news to me.
Speaker 4: But it's nice to see them playing a team that's
Speaker 4: uh uh not ranked in the top fifteen. I think
Speaker 4: they've played like seven straight, you know, ranked opponents, really
Speaker 4: good teams lately, which is part of why the record
Speaker 4: is what it needs to be. So nice to step
Speaker 4: out a non conference and play someone that's not dominating
Speaker 4: right now.
Speaker 3: And they They've got Tennessee coming in this weekend, so
Speaker 3: it doesn't get easier.
Speaker 4: So that's in a season that's I considered going to
Speaker 4: that one had my had of all friend invite me,
Speaker 4: and I committed, and then after committing to it, a
Speaker 4: couple of days past and I thought, no, I don't
Speaker 4: want to go to Knoxville, so I had to back
Speaker 4: out on that. But I will be watching them play
Speaker 4: the balls from afar this weekend.
Speaker 3: All right, let's get to our phone calls. Eight five
Speaker 3: nine two eight h two two eight seven. Who's first?
Speaker 3: Shannon start with free bird, free bird, go ahead, free bird.
Speaker 5: Hey guys, welcome back everybody, and Drew dude, you did
Speaker 5: an outstanding job last week.
Speaker 4: My friend who goes, thank you very much, thanks for
Speaker 4: listening for the compliment.
Speaker 5: And uh Billy Billy was asking you some questions when
Speaker 5: you all give away those concert tickets about h I
Speaker 5: guess a balcony on a hotel. So my question is
Speaker 5: who would be the first one on the ks R
Speaker 5: crew to stand on the balcony of a hotel and
Speaker 5: the person on the bottom balcony below you is Danny Hurley,
Speaker 5: which one is the first one to take the leak
Speaker 5: on Danny Hurley.
Speaker 3: All right, all right, thank you for your Bertie interesting
Speaker 3: questions starting to show off with today.
Speaker 4: Which one which one would of us would be on
Speaker 4: Danny Hurley? Probably we did just so you all know
Speaker 4: when you were gone. Billy did the which is most
Speaker 4: likely two game where he gives me a scenario. I
Speaker 4: didn't know them. It was like, who would bail you
Speaker 4: out of jail? I think I said to you Ryan,
Speaker 4: you were a lot of the answers. Did you all
Speaker 4: hear this? I know you didn't. Yeah. It was like
Speaker 4: one was who would bail you out of jail? Who
Speaker 4: would get out and fix a flat tire? Who would
Speaker 4: die first in a horror movie? A lot of scenarios
Speaker 4: like that, and I had to answer. So that's that's
Speaker 4: how this this came.
Speaker 2: In answer to all the those he was too like you.
Speaker 4: Were actually, uh, I said you Shannon first to die
Speaker 4: in the horror movie, because all of us you would
Speaker 4: walk towards the danger out of curiosity. So that's why
Speaker 4: I picked you on that one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's probably right.
Speaker 4: So who's peeing on Ryan?
Speaker 2: Ryan's doing it just because Ryan doesn't even know that
Speaker 2: Danny Hurley is underneath that. But he's just doing it
Speaker 2: because it's a balcony and he's got to go to
Speaker 2: the bathroom.
Speaker 3: Definitely not Shannon. Shannon has that kind of the fear
Speaker 3: of height. He wouldn't get close to the edge of
Speaker 3: the balcony.
Speaker 4: I think it's I think it's Ryan, And I'd say
Speaker 4: if we had, let's say Billy gave me eight questions,
Speaker 4: I think Brian, you're the answer.
Speaker 3: Five of them. Well, what an honor.
Speaker 4: Appreciate that they weren't bad though, I mean most of
Speaker 4: them were positive things like you're you're going out of
Speaker 4: your way to help someone. Okay, like the flat tire,
Speaker 4: I said you, I mean that's a compliment. You don't
Speaker 4: want to be the guy that just sits in the
Speaker 4: car and watches someone change the flat tire.
Speaker 3: Peing on Danny Hurley though, maybe not be the best compliment.
Speaker 4: Let's just say he's not on the balcony beneath you.
Speaker 4: You're definitely the most likely to p off the ball.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, there's no answer.
Speaker 4: We need to bring that game back. Though that was fun.
Speaker 4: I think you off played it on the Free Excuse
Speaker 4: Me pre show before Shannon.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, we have and maybe Ryan, I could come
Speaker 2: up with some other ones for it for later on, or.
Speaker 3: Let's do that, let's show it again this week. Okay,
Speaker 3: now we got to do one thing Brillian Shannon kind
Speaker 3: of did this morning. Uh, the spaceship thing that Jeff
Speaker 3: Bezos shot up in the air with Katy Perry and
Speaker 3: his wife and who else was on there?
Speaker 4: U Gail King el king? What are we doing? What
Speaker 4: are we doing as a country?
Speaker 3: They shot him up for like, what was it four minutes?
Speaker 4: Why did they do that? I thought we're going to
Speaker 4: space to you know, learn things, broaden horizons. Why are
Speaker 4: we just sending Katy Perry up there? Aren't there women
Speaker 4: at NASA that could have gone up there and they
Speaker 4: could have gotten credit for about women. How about we
Speaker 4: just recognize the people that already work at NASA. Why
Speaker 4: do we need Katy Perry in space?
Speaker 3: Well because she sang when they were up there. She's sanging.
Speaker 4: Waste the money. We got bigger problems than putting Katy
Speaker 4: Perry in space. So that's my hot take on yesterday's event.
Speaker 3: So who who goes and who doesn't go in the
Speaker 3: space shuttle up in the sky?
Speaker 4: All right, Now that I said it's dumb for Katie
Speaker 4: Perry to go. I would actually love to go. I'm
Speaker 4: also not doing anything for the world, but if it
Speaker 4: is put in front of me, I would hop in.
Speaker 3: I one hundred percent would hop in. I would knock
Speaker 3: Katy Perry over to get in.
Speaker 4: Did you see it the landing? It was not a
Speaker 4: smooth one. It wasn't They kind of bounced off the
Speaker 4: ground and even Jeff you see him running, he falls
Speaker 4: in a ditch trying to run to the door to
Speaker 4: check on him. I don't think they did any interviews
Speaker 4: about the landing, but that that couldn't have been comfortable.
Speaker 3: They hit hard, Shannon, Are you in or out?
Speaker 2: One hundred percent out? You know me, I don't even
Speaker 2: like flying in a regular plane. There's no way I
Speaker 2: would want to go to space. But we were talking
Speaker 2: on the pre show, you know, like in the future,
Speaker 2: eventually this is going to become more and more common
Speaker 2: and probably drive down the cost to where, you know,
Speaker 2: your average citizen could possibly buy a trip into space.
Speaker 2: So let's say, like I was telling Billy, for instance,
Speaker 2: let's say like there's the equivalent of Allegiant Airline that's
Speaker 2: going to take you into outer space. Ryan would you
Speaker 2: be willing to pay Let's say it was five thousand
Speaker 2: dollars to go to space, but it's like the equivalent
Speaker 2: of Allegiant Airlines taking you into the outer space. Would
Speaker 2: you be willing to do it?
Speaker 3: So it's thirty two to ninety nine for me to
Speaker 3: go make the Allegiance Space shuttle.
Speaker 4: You got paid for your bag.
Speaker 2: Let's say, like find your seat, five thousand dollars. You
Speaker 2: doing it?
Speaker 3: I would almost want to do it just to say
Speaker 3: I was able to do something like that.
Speaker 2: You gotta pay for your carry on, you gotta you
Speaker 2: know that's Allegiant my barf bag. Yeah, it's gonna be
Speaker 2: really uncomfortable.
Speaker 3: I'm doing it. If I got a chance to do it,
Speaker 3: I'm gonna do it on Allegiant.
Speaker 4: Yes, I'm going. If it's someone that knows what they're doing,
Speaker 4: I don't. I won't take Allegiance to Panama. I actually
Speaker 4: want to go on a trip soon. The only options Allegiant.
Speaker 4: I'm just not going to go, So I'm certainly not
Speaker 4: going Allegiance to space.
Speaker 3: Well, they had the submarine where they had people on
Speaker 3: they paid to go down.
Speaker 4: To the bottom of that was that was the equivalent
Speaker 4: of allegiance winning.
Speaker 2: With a Xbox controller.
Speaker 3: That's right.
Speaker 2: That was like a homemade thing.
Speaker 4: If Bezos called me, even though I was just critical
Speaker 4: of the operation, which was really dumb, I would hop in.
Speaker 3: Absolutely, you'd hop in, Matt and Shannon would not you
Speaker 3: and I would do it. I think that's fit safe
Speaker 3: to say. All right, A five nine two eight h
Speaker 3: two two eight seven? Who we got channing? What's our
Speaker 3: next call? Drew? Drew? Go ahead, Drew, you're on with
Speaker 3: Drew Drew?
Speaker 6: Hey guys, Hey, hey, hey Drew? And right Channon. Uh
Speaker 6: So we've got a generational talent down here in Corbyn
Speaker 6: Kate elm down. Here's the deal. He could have played
Speaker 6: pretty much anywhere he wanted to as a quarterback come
Speaker 6: out of high school. But he's an incredible baseball player,
Speaker 6: and there's scouts at every one of our games on
Speaker 6: the road at home, and so a lot of people
Speaker 6: in Florid, of course, only think about football and be like, well,
Speaker 6: why doesn't he go play football? But I wanted to
Speaker 6: get your all's taken, even maybe some inside knowledge if
Speaker 6: you've got it, about which would you choose. Let's say
Speaker 6: you love them equally, but you're talking about like upward mobility,
Speaker 6: the opportunity to be a professional, because Cad will very
Speaker 6: likely get drafted out of high school. It's just a
Speaker 6: matter of how high. So maybe the difference between being
Speaker 6: a you know, a quarterback versus going and trying to
Speaker 6: make it the pros and baseball. That's all I got.
Speaker 3: Hey, don't true, don't hang up. I got a question
Speaker 3: for you. Don't hang out. So that's a good question.
Speaker 3: This Kate Eland kid is a superstar baseball player, but
Speaker 3: he's really good at football. If I'm his parents, baseball
Speaker 3: is a much safer route to go, and I think
Speaker 3: he's got more talent in baseball. If he gets drafted,
Speaker 3: I'm telling him, go for it. Man. That's how that's
Speaker 3: where I land. We land on that.
Speaker 4: I don't know his overall potential, but if it's enough
Speaker 4: that I think he would make it in baseball. Even
Speaker 4: though I'd prefer I like the sport of football much
Speaker 4: better than would rather play that, I would follow the
Speaker 4: path that's most likely to give me a career.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, Football shelf life is maybe two or three years.
Speaker 3: Baseball shelf life could be ten.
Speaker 4: Yeah. So if I'm seriously in the mix for drafted
Speaker 4: and actually believe there's a path for me to make
Speaker 4: a pro career out of it, I would I would say,
Speaker 4: go about it the grid iron.
Speaker 3: Shanne, what about you?
Speaker 2: Yeah, if it were pro, I would say baseball. If
Speaker 2: it were just college and pro wasn't you know, almost guaranteed,
Speaker 2: I would say go to college and make that nil money.
Speaker 2: Right now, I'm sure the football players are making a
Speaker 2: ton of more money in IL than what college baseball
Speaker 2: players are. But for sure, got the chance to go
Speaker 2: to the majors, I would take baseball.
Speaker 4: Dure.
Speaker 3: Here's the one. I gotta ask you a question. Who's
Speaker 3: this Malchi Brown kid down at Corbyn has already had
Speaker 3: an offer from Tennessee and football and he's only a sophomore.
Speaker 6: He just got offered to Kentucky as well yesterday. The
Speaker 6: kid is amazing. Yeah, he burst on the scene last year.
Speaker 6: He only played a few games because he wasn't eligible.
Speaker 6: It's funny to see how kids get eligible in the KHS. Douba,
Speaker 6: you know, a lot of it is who you know.
Speaker 6: Just to be honest with you, well, he comes in
Speaker 6: kind of as a as a foreigner to our parts
Speaker 6: and also our new coach coach Samons came in from
Speaker 6: West Virginia, so we had you know, we were looking
Speaker 6: at a few guys that would come in from from
Speaker 6: the outside, when Malchi was one of them, and he
Speaker 6: absolutely just on his first game. You remember the Smith brothers.
Speaker 6: This guy's got the potential to be better. He's got
Speaker 6: the potential to be better. And those guys were the
Speaker 6: best two athletes I've seen come through Corbyn fotball in
Speaker 6: all my years. I'm forty four. Of course I've watched
Speaker 6: a lot, played a lot, got boys that have played
Speaker 6: and one that's still playing, Silas, So you know, Silas
Speaker 6: run those guys. I'm telling you, Malachi, I can't wait
Speaker 6: because uh you know, Sala's gonna be playing right next
Speaker 6: to him this year, and I cannot wait to see
Speaker 6: those guys because he's huge, he's fast, he's got a lot,
Speaker 6: I mean, just a ton of potential. So you know,
Speaker 6: Tennessee and Kentucky are just really the first two they're
Speaker 6: gonna be. He's gonna get offers from anywhere he wants
Speaker 6: to go. He's incredible. You on the lookout for him.
Speaker 3: Thank you, Drew. Thanks that info, Drew is some breaking
Speaker 3: news right there. Was excuse, He offered, Malachi Brown, what's
Speaker 3: the one on it's breaking news?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I have breaking news. Yes, the baseball game is
Speaker 4: at home. I thought that was the case.
Speaker 3: I thought it was at Miami, Ohio.
Speaker 4: No, they wouldn't travel to Miami, Ohio. Kentucky proud park.
Speaker 4: I was gonna correct you, but I'm like, well, am
Speaker 4: I wrong? No, So I looked it up.
Speaker 3: I'm glad you looked it up.
Speaker 4: And Tennessee's away. I think you just had him flipped.
Speaker 4: Miami's here, Tennessee's away.
Speaker 3: So if you're not going to the game, you can
Speaker 3: come here and watch our watch party, have it on
Speaker 3: the big screen for you.
Speaker 4: There you go, or if you're going come hang out
Speaker 4: pregame or post.

Speaker 3: This is Kentucky's Port Radio. Katie Perry. One of our
Speaker 3: United States astronauts up into space safely landed with a bounce,
Speaker 3: with a bounce, uh, breaking news that if we just
Speaker 3: found out the Kentucky baseball team is in Lexington tonight.

Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, I appreciate it. Any question.
Speaker 7: Hey, you know, I'm kind of in the dark with
Speaker 7: regard to this, But Drew, how did you come in
Speaker 7: contact with Matt? How did you get started with with him?
Speaker 4: There you go, all right, great question. I was writing
Speaker 4: on the internet on a different website about non UK
Speaker 4: things and he and some other KSR people read it
Speaker 4: and then learned that I lived in Lexington and was
Speaker 4: a UK fan and I read KSR at the times.
Speaker 4: It was like, hey, why don't you just move over here?
Speaker 4: And so I did in two thousand and nine, six
Speaker 4: sixteen years ago. About it my sixteenth anniversary this summer.
Speaker 3: I always like to say, it is because of what
Speaker 3: you did at the Legends ballpark.
Speaker 4: With you that kind of gotta start our phone start
Speaker 4: put me on the map. We had a we had
Speaker 4: a fun Thursday's Thursday at a Legends game that helped
Speaker 4: draw attention, and I think that's how Matt first found
Speaker 4: the site. I mentioned this on Friday. You know, bt
Speaker 4: I retired for on the intern as are the world's
Speaker 4: longest running intern On Friday was his last post. I
Speaker 4: didn't know that, Yeah, but bt I used to to
Speaker 4: mention me before I even worked for KSR and his posts.
Speaker 4: So bt I helped put me on the map many many,
Speaker 4: many years ago.
Speaker 3: What what's he retiring for? What's he gonna do?
Speaker 4: I guess you can only be an intern for so long,
Speaker 4: and you know, eighteen years that's a long internship. He's
Speaker 4: he's spread his wings. He's gonna fly and go go
Speaker 4: be in the real world.
Speaker 3: Bt I, it's kind of sad.
Speaker 4: It's a legend.
Speaker 3: And Shannon, we saw Drew Drew the intern up in
Speaker 3: uh Indianapolis.
Speaker 5: Try.
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you're a longtime listener, you might remember Drew
Speaker 2: the Intern. He was there and uh I had his
Speaker 2: kid with them. He's all grown up now.
Speaker 3: That was Milwaukee. It was in Milwaukee. He was there.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've seen Uh. I saw Drew the football game too.
Speaker 4: He asked, yeah, if I could uh break a bill
Speaker 4: so we could catch the bus over here with his daughters.
Speaker 4: I think he had a twenty and you gotta have
Speaker 4: one to get on. I was like, how can do
Speaker 4: you one better? Hop in the car? So I drove
Speaker 4: Drew Drew and Drew went over to the UK football game.
Speaker 3: And we see Tabor once in a while. Our shows
Speaker 3: another intern. Maria's blossomed into a superstar.
Speaker 4: Well, Maria basically runs on three.
Speaker 3: Yes she does. Yeah, all right, eight five nine, two
Speaker 3: two eight seven. Who's next, Shannon, Natty, Naddy, go ahead.
Speaker 4: Natty, Hey, guys, good morning, first time a long time.
Speaker 4: I just wanted to see what role you predict having
Speaker 4: Garrison next season after the new additions to the roster.
Speaker 3: That's a great question, Natty, and I think that's gone
Speaker 3: of back. Drew said, that's where they're loaded. When once
Speaker 3: Jaden Quaintons gets healthy, you've got him Garrison, Mia Bonte,
Speaker 3: he A Bonte, Maya Bante.
Speaker 4: We gotta get you on these names. You were still
Speaker 4: calling Kobe bra Bobby a Bray you after the season
Speaker 4: into Lamar Butler. I'm gonna challenge you this year to
Speaker 4: learn the names.
Speaker 3: It's Hbte, Hyabante, No Diabonte, Di Diabonte, and Malchaimarno. So
Speaker 3: you got like four big guys down there you can
Speaker 3: bounce around.
Speaker 4: Yeah. To answer a question, Garrison will be starting early.
Speaker 4: Hopefully makes a big jump. You know, he knocked down
Speaker 4: some threes last year. Maybe pop will get him more
Speaker 4: of a green light on that. He showed he can
Speaker 4: pass it. We'll have to reel him in a little bit.
Speaker 4: You know, he can be inconsistent, maybe uh, maybe a
Speaker 4: little emotional in certain games against Oklahoma. So there's a
Speaker 4: few things to fine tune with Garrison. But uh, you know,
Speaker 4: we for years wanted players to stay and get better.
Speaker 4: I've seen people complaining that Garrisons getting back. It's like,
Speaker 4: how about we wait and see if he gets better.
Speaker 4: Let's see if he and the others make a jump
Speaker 4: from this year to next year. But he will be
Speaker 4: starting right away and then when Quaintons gets healthy, and
Speaker 4: we'll see how that shapes out. But Pope doesn't play
Speaker 4: as that much anyway, so we'll see all of them often.
Speaker 3: The four spot is the Abante and the Croatian sensation,
Speaker 3: and his last name is.
Speaker 4: We're still working all the names. Yeah, I'll give you
Speaker 4: a little time on that one because I don't know
Speaker 4: that one myself.
Speaker 3: I think the last name is like like yellow bitch.
Speaker 4: That's that's I mean, that's what we said yesterday. We
Speaker 4: have not confirmed. That's how you say it? Okay, Yeah,
Speaker 4: I will give you credit. You've got the hard one somehow,
Speaker 4: and it couldn't get Shannon.

Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah, what what do you what do you want me
Speaker 2: to say Yellowvich. Well you your question.
