It made him slow down and it 57 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 2: made him go even slower. So I did think that 58 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 2: was really fun. 59 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:29,640 Speaker 4: Going to the show. 60 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: Cat Assuming now that cal is coming back and being 61 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:38,359 Speaker 1: the show, what does that mean for you and your 62 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,080 Speaker 1: relationship with him going forward? 63 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:46,680 Speaker 2: Well, I mean I'm going to cheer for him, just 64 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 2: like I did this year. I mean, Drew can tell 65 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 2: you during the Oakland game, I'm sitting there pumping my fist. 66 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 6: We were nervous wreck. 67 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 2: I was sitting next to the to one of the 68 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:57,240 Speaker 2: assistant coaches for one of the teams playing the next game, 69 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,120 Speaker 2: and he was laughing at me how into it it 70 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 2: I was. So I'm going to be doing the same way. 71 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,920 Speaker 2: You know, it's going to be awkward. I don't know 72 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 2: if it's going to be any more awkward than it 73 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 2: was now. Look, I hate the position. I hate the 74 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 2: position this is in. A guy posted that video. A 75 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 2: guy posted a video of me and cal at that 76 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,639 Speaker 2: at that luncheon in Louisville, like seven or eight years ago. 77 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 2: You were on stage too. That was great, and it 78 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,119 Speaker 2: was great, And I hate that. It's not like that, 79 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 2: I really do, because he and I have had I 80 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 2: was talking to somebody else who's kind of been like 81 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 2: pushed away, and I was talking to them yesterday and 82 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:42,120 Speaker 2: I was like, man, there's so many like great memories 83 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 2: I have with him over the years, not just the 84 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 2: basketball team, but with him. But I also have a 85 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 2: job to do in the day that I don't give 86 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 2: my actual opinion, the show will suffer. But I'm not 87 00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 2: gonna lie to you. It sucks. It's it's I mean, 88 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 2: I've grown up my whole life loving this thing, Kentucky 89 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 2: Basketball and having the person in charge of it not 90 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 2: like you, and having a large segment of the fan 91 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 2: base large but a segment of the fan base blame 92 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 2: like us for things and just go, oh, this dude 93 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 2: is and just like say the most personal mean things. 94 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,720 Speaker 2: That stinks so I'm not gonna act like it doesn't 95 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 2: weigh on me. It weighs on me less now than 96 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,320 Speaker 2: it did a year ago, but it does. I mean, 97 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:40,359 Speaker 2: that's the reason why I'm taking well, It's not the 98 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 2: only reason I take three or four weeks off in 99 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 2: the summer anyway, But I mean, I think I said 100 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:49,279 Speaker 2: this before starting Memorial my last show is gonna be 101 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 2: the day before Memorial Day, the Friday before Memorial Day, 102 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 2: and then I'm not coming back until the first of August, 103 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 2: and I'm probably going I'm just gonna kind of go away, 104 00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,280 Speaker 2: go to Europe and some places for a couple months. 105 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 2: And it's because I just have to have a reset, 106 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 2: Like I can't. I can't keep doing it the way 107 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 2: it is where you know, it's just constant whatever, and 108 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 2: you know, I just I just can't. So I mean 109 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 2: it stinks. With that said, I expect when I come 110 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:21,040 Speaker 2: back in August football will be about to start. I'm 111 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,600 Speaker 2: gonna want us to crush it, and I'm gonna want 112 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 2: us to do well in basketball. But it's it makes 113 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 2: me sad. There's no doubt that video that got that 114 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:36,279 Speaker 2: whoever that was that that posted that had an effect 115 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,359 Speaker 2: on me. That was. I just think about how fun 116 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 2: those times were. Yeah, and it sucks at the same time, though, 117 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:44,160 Speaker 2: if I just came on the show every day and 118 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:47,720 Speaker 2: said things are great, when we lose to Oakland like people, 119 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 2: that wouldn't work. People would be telling me I'm the 120 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:55,840 Speaker 2: worse for that. That's why I said, ultimately, you have 121 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 2: to just say we've gotten to the point that we've 122 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:02,159 Speaker 2: reached a level of success and bigness that like, I 123 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:04,279 Speaker 2: just have to accept people are just gonna hate me. 124 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 2: But that's I got into this. That's not what I wanted. 125 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 2: I didn't want. I'm not Alan Cutler, and I don't 126 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 2: say that to me, but Allan likes to be hated, 127 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 2: no filter, no filter, But you don't think about you know, 128 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 2: media people like this, they like to be hated. I'm 129 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 2: not like that. I don't want to be hated. 130 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:24,799 Speaker 1: Because be successful, you we still have to be objective. 131 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 2: And I didn't get into this to be controversial. But 132 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,040 Speaker 2: when the team stinks, what I've learned is you can't help. 133 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 2: Remember when Billy left, this same thing happened. Billy had defenders. 134 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 2: Billy had people that said KSR is ruining the program 135 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 2: because they say Billy should go. But with Cal everything's magnified, 136 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 2: so you know it's I'm not gonna act like it 137 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 2: won't be awkward, but it was awkward this year, you know. 138 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 2: I mean, Drew can tell you when Kyle did his 139 00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:01,039 Speaker 2: opening press conference, I sent in them back where I 140 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 2: couldn't be seen because I didn't want to. I didn't 141 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:07,839 Speaker 2: want to make it weird. You know, Jack Gibbons and 142 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 2: Tom Leach are two friends of mine, and like you know, 143 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 2: we talked. I talk to him every time I see him, 144 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 2: but we all try to kind of get where it's 145 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 2: just us right, Like that's the way it is. I 146 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 2: hate it, but it's the way it is. 147 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 1: Well because it looks like he's not going anywhere, so 148 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 1: we have so I hope we win hit it head 149 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 1: on and I hope we win every game, every game. 150 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 2: I hope we win every game and he gets to 151 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 2: stand up next year at the National Championship Shandon and 152 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 2: tell me to eat it, yeah, cheering and saying go cats. 153 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 4: You'll be eating it. 154 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 2: I'll eat it. 155 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 1: I wrote it. 156 00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 2: I'll eat it with but with extra up mustard. 157 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 6: I wrote the sun cas board last night. I don't 158 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:53,600 Speaker 6: care if he cuts the nets and throws the scissors 159 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 6: at me. If we're cutting nets, I'm happy. 160 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 2: Because the thing is and I don't say this is 161 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:01,480 Speaker 2: disrespect to him. We will be here, We were here 162 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 2: before him, will be after him. So I just have 163 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 2: to remember that, like this is Cooper, h Man, Todd, Brandon, 164 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 2: Rob and Brent that are on the phone lines, and 165 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 2: every single person listening, and every single person that was 166 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 2: sitting with you at the bar watching, and the people 167 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,640 Speaker 2: in Nashville and the people in Pittsburgh. It is your 168 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 2: program at the end of the day. It's not his, 169 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:30,680 Speaker 2: it's not the players, it's not even the administrators. I 170 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 2: want them all to have the greatest success in the world. 171 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 2: But it is this fan basis program. Mitch will retire, 172 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 2: Capeluto will retire, Cal will leave, the players will go 173 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 2: to the NBA. And you know who still will be 174 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 2: here Cooper h Man, Todd, Brandon, Rob and Brent. And 175 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 2: we can never lose sight of that. And when we 176 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 2: fight with each other, we are letting people who are 177 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 2: passers by in the program divide those of us that 178 00:08:56,240 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 2: are the actual soul of the program. 179 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 1: You feel like a lot of people that are so 180 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 1: upset and frustrated with the way things have gone. You're 181 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 1: the easy one to take it out on. 182 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:10,960 Speaker 2: Yes, oh, no doubt, I am an easy scapegoat, but 183 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 2: you know what, that's the way it goes. So but 184 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 2: I just want I hope everybody remembers that, because if 185 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:22,520 Speaker 2: Cal stays those of you that want him gone, there's 186 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 2: gonna be people that angers you how much they like Cal. 187 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 2: And those of you that like Cal, you're gonna be 188 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:30,080 Speaker 2: angry at your at the people that want that wanted 189 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,200 Speaker 2: Cal gone. But at the end of the day, the 190 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:37,720 Speaker 2: program are is us? Right? That's I mean us, meaning 191 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:39,080 Speaker 2: the collective big Blue nation. 192 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 1: Yep. 193 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:43,199 Speaker 2: Everybody else is just living here for a little while, 194 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 2: except Shannon, who was never who's a Vandy fan. But 195 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 2: everyone else, you guys are the program. And I hope 196 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,840 Speaker 2: we can remember that because I hate seeing everybody fight 197 00:09:53,920 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 2: amongst ourselves. Brandon, go ahead, Brandon, Brandon. 198 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 7: Hey, Matt Hey, I mean, given worse things you're heading, 199 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 7: it seems like Hal is likely coming back, and I'm 200 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 7: seeing more people kind of accept that online and through 201 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 7: the results of your poll. And on one hand, I 202 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,679 Speaker 7: respect the loyalty because I mean, what's the alternative than 203 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 7: the hope for the best possible scenario. But on the 204 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:22,679 Speaker 7: other hand, I feels like I'm turning into Will Ferrell 205 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:24,440 Speaker 7: and Zoolander. It's just like I feel like I'm taking 206 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 7: crazy pills. After hearing that podcast or the radio show 207 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:33,440 Speaker 7: yesterday with Tom Leech, I feel a lot worse. I 208 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 7: mean what he said about Goalkie and saying basically that 209 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,320 Speaker 7: he watched one game of visit he shot one for nine, 210 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 7: so he was gonna really worry about him. I mean, 211 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 7: that's imagine the head coach of a powerhouse college football 212 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:49,439 Speaker 7: team losing the Army one week and then giving a 213 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 7: press conference and saying, you know that that triple option 214 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 7: it really snuck up on us. I mean that to 215 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 7: me is that he did. 216 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 2: He did say after the game, like we didn't work 217 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:01,320 Speaker 2: a lot on that zone. You know, you had a week, 218 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 2: he had a week. I probably a theory that Cal 219 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,720 Speaker 2: has that he needs to abandon is this, we do 220 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 2: what we do, Drew and everybody else, We're not worried 221 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 2: to it. He's got to get away. 222 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:15,920 Speaker 6: Let's got a change. 223 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 2: I appreciate the call because like that clearly doesn't work. 224 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,439 Speaker 2: The we do what we do, you know, Rob Dillingham 225 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:24,439 Speaker 2: said after the game, like, yeah, we didn't spend a 226 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:26,680 Speaker 2: lot of time talking about them. Let's spend some time 227 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 2: talking about that. 228 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 6: No kid that work thirty eight No, and you've got 229 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,439 Speaker 6: Carl Town's that roster. It's it hasn't been working lately. 230 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 6: There was a game this year. I won't use names, 231 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 6: but we were playing a very marquee player. I'll just 232 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 6: say that it's a name everyone should know if you 233 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 6: know college basketball. And in the day before interviews with 234 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 6: our players, they seem to not even know who that 235 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,680 Speaker 6: person was, and they were like, we don't focus so 236 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:50,120 Speaker 6: much on their personnel. We focus on us and the 237 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 6: plays they're running, not their people. And it's kind of like, yeah, 238 00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 6: playing is kind of in the times. 239 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,680 Speaker 2: I mean, when when somebody gets up and says, we 240 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 2: knew we weren't gonna let Antonio Reeves beat us, so 241 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 2: we were gonna stick with him all times, which I 242 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:08,840 Speaker 2: think one of the teams, maybe Wilmington's coach, said we 243 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 2: got to start doing that same thing. Yep, right, because 244 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 2: if you shut Antonio Reeves down this year, what did 245 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 2: you do you shut Kentucky deck? If we could have 246 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:22,040 Speaker 2: made Gulky not get seven open looks in the first half. 247 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 2: We win that game, right, he had a couple crazy ones. 248 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:29,160 Speaker 2: But if they had just put Reeves on him from 249 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 2: the start, we win. But we didn't put him on 250 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:34,679 Speaker 2: huntil the end of the first half, and he already 251 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:35,400 Speaker 2: had seven. 252 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 6: And he was just running wherever he wanted on that 253 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:38,600 Speaker 6: baseline around screens. 254 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:41,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, you do that same spot, that's what. 255 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 6: And he's making about that spot. 256 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:45,280 Speaker 1: Make an in game adjustment. 257 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:48,960 Speaker 2: So they weren't ready for the zwe e twos. You know, 258 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 2: he's not gonna drive Shannon. He took eight twos and 259 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 2: in the pregames press conference said I'm not happy I 260 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:55,559 Speaker 2: took those eight and. 261 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 6: He said, I'm not taking on tomorrow. He said, I'm 262 00:12:58,040 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 6: not taking. 263 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 3: When he wore when like the rest of the team 264 00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:02,480 Speaker 3: warmed up, he was the guy that did not go 265 00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 3: through the layup line. 266 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 4: He would just shoot threes. 267 00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 2: Is that right? He didn't go to the lap line. Yeah, Rob, 268 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:10,560 Speaker 2: go ahead, Rob. 269 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:12,880 Speaker 5: Yeah. 270 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 8: The problem I got is it's complacency. It's effort. I mean, 271 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 8: you can say what whatever about his recruitment. That's not 272 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 8: what work Stops is recruiting. There's not been much effort. 273 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:27,559 Speaker 8: Looks fucking coaching this year, adjustments, game planning, anything, and 274 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 8: maybe that's the contract. Maybe he stopped working. I don't know, 275 00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 8: but you look at these older coaches, even when you 276 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:37,960 Speaker 8: know Shrzewski was still coaching, or Nick Saban, even Patino, 277 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 8: those are older coaches, but they were still grinding. 278 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:42,400 Speaker 1: They were still working, and we don't see that work. 279 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't. I appreciate Carl. I don't want to 280 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 2: say he doesn't work. I can't say that. I'm not there, 281 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,679 Speaker 2: but I do think, well, yeah, I mean there's been 282 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 2: some complacency and there's been this view. It's encapsulated. He says, 283 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 2: we do what we do, well, what we're doing is 284 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 2: not working, so maybe we need to do some other stuff. 285 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:06,079 Speaker 1: Well, I know you guys talk about this yesterday, but 286 00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 1: what Seth Greenberg said you need he needs to go 287 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 1: back to the old cow where he was grinding. 288 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 2: And yeah, he said cow needs to go back to 289 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 2: old school, defensive cow. His quord was no more swaggy cow, 290 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:21,240 Speaker 2: now old school cow and their buddies and their buddies. 291 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 2: Yeah they are like me and you guys buddies. For 292 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:30,400 Speaker 2: him to say that, that's not some critics saying it 293 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 2: that is his his biggest defender, saying that, so I 294 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:43,360 Speaker 2: do think that that matters? Todd quickly, go ahead, Matt, yes, quickly. 295 00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 9: You said back earlier, so much money to buy cow out? 296 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:50,880 Speaker 2: Oh? 297 00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 9: Where would they get the money to do that? 298 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 2: I mean? 299 00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:58,520 Speaker 9: Thirty three? Megan his monitor, standing, you don't have to. 300 00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:00,320 Speaker 2: Pay it up A short answer to that that is, 301 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:02,760 Speaker 2: I can't go into details, but you don't have to 302 00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 2: pay it up front. And if Mitch decided that's what 303 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 2: he wanted to do, it would be there. 304 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 9: Okay, another fight real quick. Do you think Cal if 305 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 9: he stayed, will hire Kenny Payne back that? 306 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 2: I don't know. That's an interesting question. I appreciate the call. 307 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 2: It would make Louisville fans heads explode.

I don't know. 342 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:06,120 Speaker 2: Show premp my man's always ready every show he's ready. Well, 343 00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:09,439 Speaker 2: Marcus is my guy. That's my all time favorite. He 344 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:11,280 Speaker 2: was on the wrong side there, but the same time, 345 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:13,440 Speaker 2: Cal's is guy. I mean, that's what I would say 346 00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:15,840 Speaker 2: if I was DeMarcus. I did feel like when he 347 00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:18,679 Speaker 2: was bringing up Kentucky pre Cal, he it's it's like 348 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:20,680 Speaker 2: he only knew the Gillespi era there for a little 349 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:21,920 Speaker 2: bit when he was talking about how bad it was, 350 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 2: where Rondo was like, well, right before that, you know 351 00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:26,880 Speaker 2: we're winning, and you know Rondo played for Tubby, He's 352 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:27,439 Speaker 2: got a title. 353 00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:28,000 Speaker 4: So I liked. 354 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,119 Speaker 6: Rondo standing up for the program as a whole. It 355 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:31,960 Speaker 6: was just weird seeing them argue about it, like can 356 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:33,160 Speaker 6: we Here's what I loved. 357 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:35,720 Speaker 2: I love that they were both passionate. I love that 358 00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 2: they both cared. I agree more with Rondo, but I 359 00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:44,640 Speaker 2: love that DeMarcus sticks up for his coach, right you should. 360 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 2: You should. I would expect Tamarcus to have that position, 361 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:52,359 Speaker 2: and I like that Rondo had that position. I just 362 00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:56,400 Speaker 2: love that they both cared. That's what I love because 363 00:17:56,720 --> 00:18:00,439 Speaker 2: I think there's this notion that when Cal leaves no 364 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:03,680 Speaker 2: one like that, his guys won't care about Kentucky. DeMarcus 365 00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:06,760 Speaker 2: showed that's not true. DeMarcus won't be happy. I bet 366 00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:10,480 Speaker 2: if col were to be let But like he cares, 367 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 2: Rondo cares, Shannon. I liked seeing two guys that care. 368 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:17,680 Speaker 2: They used to play here that both have had sixcess. 369 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:19,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think both had points to what they 370 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:22,880 Speaker 3: were saying. Rondo is correct and the fact that Cal 371 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:25,760 Speaker 3: has underachieved only one championship with all the talenties had. 372 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 3: But what did you expect Boogie to say? He didn't 373 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:28,760 Speaker 3: think he's gonna. 374 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:31,399 Speaker 2: Be saying exactly what he should exactly. So yeah, but 375 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:33,439 Speaker 2: I mean Boogie responded to one of my tweets with 376 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:35,320 Speaker 2: a picture of Cal calling him the goat. 377 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:37,680 Speaker 4: But that's it's a good representation. 378 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 2: He should. I didn't. I didn't respond back because that's 379 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 2: what DeMarcus should do. And then we communicated last night 380 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 2: and his you like to know what His quote was 381 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:53,320 Speaker 2: last night to a mutual friend, Shannon. Yeah, he said, 382 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:59,000 Speaker 2: tell Matt, I love Matt and that crazy ass white 383 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:01,440 Speaker 2: dude with him, and I think he was talking about 384 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:04,439 Speaker 2: dread has stayed in his house. 385 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:08,159 Speaker 6: I've dog said before him before that crazy trust me 386 00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:08,640 Speaker 6: with the dog. 387 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 2: So I love that. 388 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 6: I'm the I had a thought right before that, oh, 389 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 6: just that what they were doing is so much better 390 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 6: than guys that would just leave being the NBA and 391 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 6: forget anything's even going on. I don't care if they 392 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:23,760 Speaker 6: have the wrong opinion. The fact that they want to 393 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:26,359 Speaker 6: talk about Kentucky and still share the opinion says a 394 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:27,080 Speaker 6: lot about them. 395 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 2: And honestly that argument, my view is, if those two 396 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 2: guys can have that argument, why can't we have that 397 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 2: amongst ourselves?

He's he has to stay 436 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:19,639 Speaker 2: here for two years or stay in college for two 437 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:24,040 Speaker 2: years because he's so young, So like, that's gonna be tough. 438 00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 2: I appreciate the call. That was part of my thought 439 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 2: process in saying, Eh, what do we want to do, 440 00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 2: cause this's gonna be he talks about getting older, but 441 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 2: we got six freshmen coming in.

We played against guys 455 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 2: who were twenty five, twenty six, twenty seven, and he's 456 00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:16,679 Speaker 2: getting like Trey Mitchell. He lost twenty three pounds forty 457 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:17,560 Speaker 2: six pounds. 458 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:19,359 Speaker 4: The one dude though, I mean, he looked like he 459 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:20,359 Speaker 4: could have been twenty seven. 460 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:22,920 Speaker 2: I think the oldest dude we played was twenty four. 461 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:24,640 Speaker 2: To be fair, we might have played one twenty five. 462 00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:28,440 Speaker 2: We did not play anybody twenty seven years four. Yeah, 463 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:30,800 Speaker 2: they're not as old as Max Duffy.

Right? 523 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 4: That's true? 524 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:11,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I guess maybe there's some thought that 525 00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:14,800 Speaker 3: he learned something from his dad and the what's what's 526 00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:17,359 Speaker 3: the expression of the apple apple doesn't fall true? 527 00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:22,600 Speaker 2: And is hiring the kid of a legend work in 528 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 2: any part of life? Can you think of a extremely 529 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:35,520 Speaker 2: successful human being who's extremely successful son, And let's not 530 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:38,399 Speaker 2: say something that is a physical talent like sports like 531 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 2: the Griffies or the Mannies, But can you think of 532 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 2: someone who had a job that was extremely successful that 533 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:46,880 Speaker 2: then their son was hired to do the same job 534 00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 2: and he was equally as successful. I'm not talking about 535 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:55,359 Speaker 2: something that's physical talent, but like business, politics, sports. 536 00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 4: Some people need George Bush. 537 00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:03,600 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, okay, I mean leave a side. 538 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:05,680 Speaker 4: Depending what you depend on what you think. 539 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:09,119 Speaker 6: Yeah, both are and it's not a terrible that's not 540 00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:11,399 Speaker 6: a terrible one, even though even though he's not really 541 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 6: getting hired. 542 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:12,399 Speaker 2: I mean the. 543 00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:15,920 Speaker 6: People I think you're looking for like an actual I'm. 544 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 2: Just gonna hire my job, and you go, let's put 545 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 2: the kid in charge, and then the kid is as 546 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 2: good or better than the dad. I just don't think 547 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:28,159 Speaker 2: it happens very often. I think usually the kid is worse. 548 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:30,919 Speaker 6: What if the kid went sixty one and forty one 549 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 6: in three years in New Mexico? 550 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:35,879 Speaker 2: Would you hire a dude that went sixty one and 551 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:38,560 Speaker 2: forty one at New Mexico if his last name was 552 00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:41,639 Speaker 2: not Fatino? No, you would not. 553 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:44,760 Speaker 6: So they should absolutely do it, all right, So now 554 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:46,679 Speaker 6: let's get to the crazy story. Yeah, the good stuff. 555 00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:51,200 Speaker 2: Bob Valvano, Now listen. I like Bob Valvano. He's the 556 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 2: color announcer for U of L basketball, So he's there. 557 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:58,040 Speaker 2: Jack Gibbons, yes, okay. He goes on his radio show 558 00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:02,880 Speaker 2: yesterday and says on a most offhandedly that the reason 559 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 2: Dusty May didn't go to Louisville and pick Michigan was 560 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:13,520 Speaker 2: because he had gotten death threats from Louisville vans. That's 561 00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:16,399 Speaker 2: a pretty strong allegation. Can you imagine if Jack Gibbons 562 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:24,680 Speaker 2: said that resonate So people were like, what? So, Tim Sullivan, 563 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:27,960 Speaker 2: I give him a lot of credit, decides to look 564 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 2: into it. Dusty May then tells So he calls Dusty May. 565 00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:35,400 Speaker 2: Dusty May then tells Tim Sullivan, I've never received any 566 00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:39,920 Speaker 2: death threats. I never received any threats at all period. Okay, 567 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:42,960 Speaker 2: so now no death threats. So then the question is, 568 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:48,000 Speaker 2: how did Bob Valvano think there were death threats. Bob 569 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 2: said the Indiana state coach, whose name is like Josh 570 00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 2: shirts Shirts, had told him that last weekend. Okay, now, Shannon, 571 00:27:58,080 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 2: he's thrown another person into. 572 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:02,400 Speaker 4: The Mixisco fact check the coach up there. 573 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 2: So Josh Shirts it is probably like, uh. 574 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:10,840 Speaker 6: What he might have been his own coaching searches. 575 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 2: So May at Michigan said that Shirts told Bob Valvano, 576 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:20,879 Speaker 2: if Louisville fans aren't excited about Dusty May, then they 577 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:24,160 Speaker 2: wouldn't be excited about me. I'd be a dead man walking. 578 00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:26,800 Speaker 1: That's a little different than death threats. 579 00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 2: So then Bob Valvano last night, this is his quote. 580 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:32,080 Speaker 2: And I'm not trying to crush Bob, but this is 581 00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:36,040 Speaker 2: an amazing quote. The death threats, I said, was a 582 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 2: phrase that was used in the course of conversation. Maybe 583 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 2: I said it, maybe he said it. I'm not really sure. 584 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:49,640 Speaker 2: Maybe I was the one that brought it up. So 585 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:54,400 Speaker 2: he went from a joke about I don't think they'd 586 00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:58,000 Speaker 2: like me to Josh Shirtz told me Dusty May got 587 00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:00,960 Speaker 2: death threats and then later shit and saying he might 588 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 2: have been the one that brought it up. 589 00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:04,200 Speaker 4: That's a big leap. 590 00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 2: He apologized last night. But Shannon, and now there's some 591 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 2: people around Louisville media saying Josh Shurtz is considering not 592 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 2: taking the jajob because of this. 593 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:20,760 Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, every possible coach that you have, you're 594 00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 3: now screwing over your own program based on stupid comments 595 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:25,400 Speaker 3: that you're making on the radio. 596 00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 2: How do you get up and say, Drew he said 597 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:32,120 Speaker 2: there was death threats and then later go, actually, maybe 598 00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:32,960 Speaker 2: I brought it up. 599 00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:38,640 Speaker 6: What in death threat? I mean it's not like he said, Man, 600 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 6: there were people with some mean tweets. I mean, death 601 00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:43,760 Speaker 6: threats is a pretty specific and very severe thing to 602 00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:46,440 Speaker 6: say that is going on. If you're not certain that happened. 603 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:48,520 Speaker 4: You can't just throw that around. 604 00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:52,800 Speaker 6: Yeah, I just accused their fan basis maybe I brought 605 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:53,240 Speaker 6: it up. 606 00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 1: And he's talking about his own fans. 607 00:29:56,520 --> 00:30:01,280 Speaker 2: Those are he literally said his fans gave death threats 608 00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 2: to a guy, and he was Joe the one making 609 00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 2: like joking. It is unfathomable to me how he could 610 00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:13,760 Speaker 2: give a quote to Tim Sullimon going, well, maybe I'm 611 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:14,760 Speaker 2: the one that brought it up. 612 00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 6: Even if he just did that alone without pulling two 613 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 6: coaches into it with him, is pretty wild. But he's 614 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 6: reaching up and grabbing them and pulling them into the 615 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 6: mud too, And I'm sure they're thinking, leave our names 616 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:25,680 Speaker 6: out of this. 617 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's more to the quote. I'm sorry I forgot this. 618 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:32,120 Speaker 2: Valvino says it was such an inconsequential part of the conversation. 619 00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:35,480 Speaker 2: If I said it, he didn't stop me. If he 620 00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:38,880 Speaker 2: said it, I didn't stop him. None of us really 621 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:39,960 Speaker 2: thought it was a big deal. 622 00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:43,000 Speaker 6: Why'd you go on radio? 623 00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:46,040 Speaker 2: And if I said it, he didn't stop me. If 624 00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:47,400 Speaker 2: he said it, what shit? 625 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:47,680 Speaker 10: Like? 626 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:48,760 Speaker 2: What does that mean? 627 00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 3: They're acting like throwing around the word death, the words 628 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,080 Speaker 3: death orreat is not that big of a deal to 629 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:56,120 Speaker 3: either one or be it? 630 00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:58,680 Speaker 2: Be it for me to take up for Louisville fans. 631 00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:01,920 Speaker 2: But you can't go around saying they threw death threats 632 00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:05,000 Speaker 2: to a coach and then be like, well, maybe I 633 00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 2: said it. 634 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 4: Maybe you so neither to make care though. 635 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 2: Maybe the dude on the streets, I don't know, Maybe 636 00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 2: maybe it was a dream.

We'll take a break, very backs, Kiz. We 706 00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:35,680 Speaker 2: got some breaking news here, Shannon running non A. The 707 00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:39,759 Speaker 2: University of Kentucky has hired Kenny Brooks of Virginia Tech 708 00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:43,520 Speaker 2: to be its new women's basketball coach. He will become 709 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:47,560 Speaker 2: one of the ten highest paid women's coaches in America. 710 00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:49,640 Speaker 2: They swung for the fences. I mean, I know a 711 00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:51,839 Speaker 2: lot of folks don't follow. I mean, I'm not gonna 712 00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:55,279 Speaker 2: claim to follow women's basketball intricately, although I've watched it 713 00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:57,080 Speaker 2: a lot more in the last couple of years. But 714 00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:59,799 Speaker 2: this is a dude who built a program from scratch 715 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:02,839 Speaker 2: that went to the Final four. He did it at 716 00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:06,320 Speaker 2: his school prior, and now he will come to Kentucky. 717 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:09,960 Speaker 2: He will be the I believe, the third highest paid 718 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:14,279 Speaker 2: coach in the SEC, behind Mulky and Don Staley. So 719 00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:18,520 Speaker 2: leaves the state. He grew up in Virginia and now 720 00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:21,479 Speaker 2: comes to Kentucky to try to build a powerhouse here. 721 00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:22,279 Speaker 2: What do you think? 722 00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:23,040 Speaker 1: So it's official? 723 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:26,360 Speaker 2: Now it is now official. Virginia Tech actually announced it first, 724 00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:30,560 Speaker 2: Shinn and Oh, Virginia Tech announced he was leaving before Kentucky, 725 00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:34,640 Speaker 2: which is kind of like a but I had heard 726 00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:36,360 Speaker 2: last night. It was just a matter of getting the 727 00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:38,040 Speaker 2: final mand They had. 728 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:40,000 Speaker 1: To wait until Virginia Tech got beat to kind of. 729 00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:43,319 Speaker 2: Well they I mean, he talked to him last week, 730 00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:45,960 Speaker 2: but then I mean, it wasn't gonna get closed till 731 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:49,000 Speaker 2: they got beat. Yeah, and He's got like top recruits 732 00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:52,400 Speaker 2: already committed, so in theory they could come here. So 733 00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:54,239 Speaker 2: I think if you're going to pick a guy to 734 00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:57,080 Speaker 2: turn that program around, I think here's where I think 735 00:35:57,080 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 2: this was with Mitch Barnhart. He's opening up a new 736 00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:03,840 Speaker 2: for Yes and the women's basketball team. That facility, between 737 00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:05,799 Speaker 2: me and you has cost a lot more than they thought. 738 00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:09,719 Speaker 2: When you're talking money, you have to think about that. 739 00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:13,640 Speaker 2: The renovation memorial has been You ever saw that movie 740 00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:17,439 Speaker 2: Shannon money Pit that Tom Hanks was in in the eighties. No, 741 00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:19,400 Speaker 2: I saw it. It might have been a little of that, 742 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:23,880 Speaker 2: and they don't want to open it up and be terrible. 743 00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:26,600 Speaker 2: So I think Drew this was the guy they thought 744 00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:28,600 Speaker 2: could immediately turn it around. 745 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 6: Yeah, what he did at Virginia Tech and even James 746 00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:33,919 Speaker 6: Madison before that, We're getting Virginia Tech from like the 747 00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:38,200 Speaker 6: wnit to the Final four pretty quickly. He's a good recruiter. 748 00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:40,040 Speaker 6: His whole career has been in Virginia. I don't know 749 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:41,279 Speaker 6: if this will be the case, but you think a 750 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:43,880 Speaker 6: guy that's a good recruiter in Virginia, he's not moving 751 00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:46,560 Speaker 6: that far away. Maybe he keeps that pipeline and those 752 00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:49,080 Speaker 6: connections going and just uses it to build in Lexington. 753 00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:51,360 Speaker 2: And this is a perfect example why the SEC and 754 00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:54,840 Speaker 2: Big ten are going to dominate for the next whatever 755 00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:57,120 Speaker 2: many years. This is a dude who had gone to 756 00:36:57,120 --> 00:37:00,279 Speaker 2: a Final four at a Power five school and had 757 00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:02,919 Speaker 2: built that program and says, you know what, I'm going 758 00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:05,920 Speaker 2: to the SEC to a program that has historically not 759 00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:07,440 Speaker 2: been great at women's basketball. 760 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:10,640 Speaker 1: So he gets a lot more money. 761 00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:13,439 Speaker 2: And now Mitch's whole attention can focus on his meeting 762 00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:16,720 Speaker 2: with Cal today. And there is already a Twitter account 763 00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:19,560 Speaker 2: that is tracking that Cal's playing lands in Lexington within 764 00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:23,400 Speaker 2: the next Now what happens, How does Mitch? That's unbelievable 765 00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:24,799 Speaker 2: that people do that, but they do. 766 00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:27,120 Speaker 6: I mean, Mitch will have to have a press conference. 767 00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:30,680 Speaker 2: For this day, that'll happen. But if it's gonna be Mitch, 768 00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:33,279 Speaker 2: well that's the thing. But if he doesn't for that, 769 00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:35,960 Speaker 2: that's a really good point. He's got to figure out 770 00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:38,520 Speaker 2: the cow situation before he has the Kenny Brooks press 771 00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:40,880 Speaker 2: conference or the question Shannon will be about cats. 772 00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:43,040 Speaker 4: Right, Oh, yeah, he can't have that. 773 00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:47,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't think that's that's right. Roger, go ahead, Roger. 774 00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:51,560 Speaker 12: Yes, thanks, for taking my call. But I got one 775 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:55,680 Speaker 12: view that I've been thinking about for after the last 776 00:37:55,760 --> 00:38:01,080 Speaker 12: four or five years, since John Robick has retired, coach 777 00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:05,879 Speaker 12: Cal has gone down, and I know that he would 778 00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:08,480 Speaker 12: must have played a heck of a part in that 779 00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:13,600 Speaker 12: organization and the Massachusetts and Memphis. I just want to 780 00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:14,480 Speaker 12: know your view on that. 781 00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:17,880 Speaker 2: No, he definitely did, definitely did. And Uh, I appreciate 782 00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:22,840 Speaker 2: the call. It's it was another unfortunate party. It's the 783 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:27,640 Speaker 2: best way I can say. You know, everybody always wants 784 00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:29,680 Speaker 2: to know details. I understand that I'm not going to 785 00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:35,439 Speaker 2: get into that. It's unfortunate because they miss him and 786 00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:40,200 Speaker 2: he lost Kenny, Dwayne and Robic all within a year. 787 00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:43,719 Speaker 2: And I think Cal had the view that like, you 788 00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:46,960 Speaker 2: know what, no big deal. Well it was a big deal. 789 00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:50,400 Speaker 2: It was. It was a big deal. Uh, let's go 790 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:52,520 Speaker 2: to Francisco. Francisco, go ahead. 791 00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:57,200 Speaker 13: Yeah, I'm a big basketball fan for Kentucky. I got 792 00:38:57,239 --> 00:39:01,080 Speaker 13: a prediction and he going on to whether I'm right 793 00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:06,160 Speaker 13: or wrong the team from this year, it said Dellingham, 794 00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:11,000 Speaker 13: they we all return and he will sign Mashburn's son. 795 00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:14,719 Speaker 2: Well, I mean then we'll have forty three players if 796 00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:18,680 Speaker 2: they all returned. I mean, uh, we'll have a lot 797 00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:21,480 Speaker 2: because we had six freshmen coming in. And now I 798 00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:24,000 Speaker 2: don't know about Mashburn's son. That's an interesting I appreciate call. 799 00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:26,080 Speaker 2: He's in the portal. Would you take Mashburn's kid average 800 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:27,680 Speaker 2: fourteen points a game in New Mexico? 801 00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:31,120 Speaker 1: Well maybe they did, saying he's gonna get the job 802 00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:32,879 Speaker 1: at Louisville and I'll transfer to Louisville with Richard. 803 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:35,040 Speaker 3: May ask you this, would you take him if his 804 00:39:35,160 --> 00:39:36,040 Speaker 3: name wasn't Mashburn. 805 00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:40,560 Speaker 2: That's exactly Shandon's exactly right. I don't know, but I 806 00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:43,120 Speaker 2: would only take him if you would take him if 807 00:39:43,120 --> 00:39:47,600 Speaker 2: his name was Jamal Smith. If you would then take him. 808 00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:50,760 Speaker 2: But if you wouldn't, then I wouldn't. 809 00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:53,520 Speaker 6: Yeah, I was talking about. I don't know how you 810 00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:55,839 Speaker 6: could get some Kentucky fans excited for next year's roster 811 00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:58,840 Speaker 6: if you just wasted this roster, but a backcourt of 812 00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:02,240 Speaker 6: Shepherd and Mashburn, you might get some fans. 813 00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:05,840 Speaker 2: I would want to make I would want Kentucky to 814 00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:09,000 Speaker 2: believe they would recruit him if he was Jamal Smith, 815 00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:11,280 Speaker 2: if they believe that, and I would trust their judgment 816 00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:14,000 Speaker 2: if they believe that then then recruit. But you don't 817 00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:17,440 Speaker 2: recruit him just because his name is Mashburne, because that 818 00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:20,200 Speaker 2: is a That's the exact same argument Louisvill's making with 819 00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:20,920 Speaker 2: Richard Patina. 820 00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:23,200 Speaker 1: I think he was like second leading scorer on their 821 00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:23,600 Speaker 1: team though. 822 00:40:23,640 --> 00:40:27,560 Speaker 2: So he's in Mexico, there's gonna be some really good dudes. 823 00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:30,160 Speaker 2: Michie Johnson from South Carolina's now in the portal. 824 00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:32,280 Speaker 6: Katie Johnson from Auburn just went in the portal. 825 00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:35,120 Speaker 2: Don't get him, Charlie. What's up, Charlie? 826 00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:37,640 Speaker 14: First time caller? 827 00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:38,160 Speaker 2: Who are. 828 00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:44,000 Speaker 14: Just a personal opinion. I can't stand the guy, but 829 00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:48,200 Speaker 14: he plays like a duke player and he has quite 830 00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:51,440 Speaker 14: the attitude. But if he did come to Kentucky instead 831 00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:55,840 Speaker 14: of Kansas, they'd both still be playing Hunter Dickinson. 832 00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:59,920 Speaker 2: I don't know, man, there's a lot of behind the 833 00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:06,200 Speaker 2: scenes chatter that he's a team killer. So I'm gonna 834 00:41:06,239 --> 00:41:08,880 Speaker 2: say that was a blessing to not get him. To 835 00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:10,560 Speaker 2: be honest, you're. 836 00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:12,600 Speaker 14: Probably right he's got that duke attitude. 837 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:14,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, I appreciate the call. I mean that's just what 838 00:41:14,920 --> 00:41:17,759 Speaker 2: you hear now. To be fair, Kansas was bad in 839 00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:19,520 Speaker 2: part because he only had six players and then their 840 00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:23,719 Speaker 2: leading score got hurt. Yeah, but Dre, there's a lot 841 00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:25,920 Speaker 2: of whispers that maybe he hedn't a dude you want 842 00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:26,759 Speaker 2: on your team. 843 00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:27,359 Speaker 9: Yeah. 844 00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:29,399 Speaker 6: I think Kentucky would have just been fine playing three 845 00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:31,200 Speaker 6: guards in the small ball line up a little more 846 00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:33,839 Speaker 6: than it did. I mean, he's a good player, but 847 00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:36,120 Speaker 6: I don't know that he would have. I think Kentucky 848 00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:38,239 Speaker 6: had everything they needed, which I think Kentucky don't think 849 00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:40,440 Speaker 6: adding more players is going to fix anything. Kentucky had 850 00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:41,480 Speaker 6: all the talent in the world. 851 00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:49,240 Speaker 2: I honestly believe if Kentucky had just played Oakland with Reed, Reeves, Wagner, 852 00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:52,080 Speaker 2: and Dillingham going back and forth, Justin Edwards at the 853 00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:54,160 Speaker 2: four and Trey Mitchell at the five, they win. 854 00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:58,840 Speaker 1: You agree, Yeah, I think if honestly, if Trey Mitchell 855 00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:02,040 Speaker 1: had not gotten hurt and they play that small ball lineup. 856 00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:05,440 Speaker 2: I think I think all was playing against Oakland and 857 00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:06,640 Speaker 2: we would have been playing NC State. 858 00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:09,040 Speaker 6: That team, especially their tongues were hanging out in that 859 00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:09,640 Speaker 6: second haltz. 860 00:42:09,680 --> 00:42:12,560 Speaker 2: Right, Hey, Don Franklin's family of dealerships, you can still 861 00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:15,560 Speaker 2: still steer your way over to Don Franklin Auto dot com. 862 00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:18,200 Speaker 2: They got the largest inventory of new used in certified 863 00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:21,560 Speaker 2: pre owned vehicles, twenty seven dealerships across the state.
