But yeah, 31 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:11,959 Speaker 4: Tubby being back, that makes it. That's the cherry on 32 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:13,000 Speaker 4: top for the day, right. 33 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:15,840 Speaker 1: You know, the Tubby's been around some this summer. He 34 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 1: came and played in the with the Golf Classic Children 35 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 1: Charity Golf Classic. A couple of weeks ago. 36 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:24,480 Speaker 3: Heard he went to Jerry Tipton's Uh that's what Jerry 37 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 3: told us. He went to his book Uh book party. Yeah, 38 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 3: the book launch, the book launch. I love the fact 39 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 3: that Tubby's coming back and being a part now that 40 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 3: he's retiring and come back to the fold a little bit, 41 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:36,399 Speaker 3: you know. I love that about it. It has been 42 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 3: seeing him around a lot, or not a lot, but 43 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,759 Speaker 3: it's when we do in the big high point game 44 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:43,119 Speaker 3: I think really set that off. The welcoming back, having 45 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,319 Speaker 3: that celebration of Tubby and then he's been around a 46 00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 3: lot since in retirement. 47 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:50,360 Speaker 1: Now we've told this before, but when Tubby left here, 48 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,600 Speaker 1: he'd I think he always felt like Kentucky fans were 49 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 1: mad at him, and when they introduced him at halftime 50 00:01:58,200 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 1: of a UK football game, when he made the uk 51 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 1: A Hall of Fame, he told, some people, are they 52 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,560 Speaker 1: going to boomy? You think they're you know, I'm you know, 53 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 1: they're not gonna clap? I mean, and he was serious. 54 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 1: I think he really thought the fan base had turned 55 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:14,800 Speaker 1: against him. And if you were there that day, I 56 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:18,119 Speaker 1: got goosebumps. The crowd roar for Tubby and you could 57 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 1: tell he was really touched by it. And I think 58 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:21,639 Speaker 1: ever since then it's been nothing but love. 59 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 3: I remember that, and I mean I wasn't surprised by 60 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 3: the reception he got, which made me kind of a 61 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 3: little sad that he would think that there would be 62 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 3: anything other than cheers. I mean, a lot of time 63 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 3: had passed since at the end of his career was 64 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 3: as you know, exactly everybody wanted it. But the man 65 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 3: won a national championship and had some great teams here 66 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 3: in likeson. So I wasn't surprised at all that he's 67 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 3: been getting the reception he has back and likes it 68 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 3: in a little said to think he didn't even think 69 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:45,959 Speaker 3: anyone would boom. 70 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:47,119 Speaker 2: He's such a good guy. 71 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 1: But I think he was generally concerned that he disappointed 72 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:53,080 Speaker 1: people here in his final years and they would remember that. 73 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 1: But Shannon, it was awesome. They applauded for him. He's 74 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 1: now in the UK Hall of Fame. They honoraty went 75 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 1: during the high Point Game last year.

But you 178 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 3: want to talk about shooting. Did you hear what Andrew 179 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 3: Carr said yesterday about Travis Perry. He said, in one drill, 180 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 3: he looked up and Travis Perry had taken six hundred shots. 181 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,559 Speaker 3: He was shooting eighty five percent. He's like, that's crazy, 182 00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 3: and then he realized it was like all threes. Now, 183 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:01,920 Speaker 3: I mean, this is just open gym shooting by himself, 184 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 3: but eighty five percent on six hundred and then he 185 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 3: said he hit fifty nine in. 186 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 2: A row from the corner, nine in a row. 187 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 3: I don't know what Travis Perry is gonna become, but 188 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 3: there's a little part of me getting excited for him 189 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 3: to surprise everyone. 190 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 4: Now. 191 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 3: I don't know if I don't want to get crazy 192 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 3: and put unreal expectations on him with anything compared to 193 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 3: what Reed just did, but I'm getting prepared for him 194 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 3: to play a little more than people expected. 195 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 1: Shan, we talked about Travis Perry on the pre showing. 196 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 1: You and I both said, dude, he's a scorer. Man. 197 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: There's gonna be a there's gonna be a spot and 198 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 1: a time for him, and people are gonna realize how 199 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 1: good he this guy really is. 200 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 4: If he can shoot like that in a game, there's 201 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 4: no way he can keep him on the bench, right, 202 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 4: I mean, the guy that knocked down fifty nine that's 203 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 4: that's ridiculous. Like most people can't knock down fifty nine 204 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 4: free throws, let alone three point shots. So I get 205 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 4: mad when people say he'll never get off the bench. 206 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 4: You wait, that kid's gonna play and he's gonna be 207 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 4: He's gonna be a good player someday. 208 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 3: And I don't know all the other guys on the team. Heck, 209 00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 3: I don't even know Travis that well, but I know 210 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 3: a little bit about his background, and I can't imagine 211 00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 3: there's too many people out working him right now because 212 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 3: that's always been background and what's made him stand out 213 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 3: is how hard he works. So now he's got all 214 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 3: that technology in the Noah shooting system, we might end 215 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 3: up with just an elite lights out shooter that you 216 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 3: can't leave open. 217 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 2: Well, Bray you is the one shooters. 218 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 3: They keep trying to make him the baseball player. 219 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 2: Bobby A brave, Bobby A brave A Breyer, b r 220 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 2: e A Breyer. 221 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 3: There's no A you don't no, you're you're You're great, 222 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 3: a syllable that doesn't exist. Breyer. 223 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:32,680 Speaker 1: You can shoot, Kerk Chris cursachrisa curse, CRISA can shoot, Travis, 224 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 1: Perry can call, Team can shoot. 225 00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 2: For the most part, Car is a good shooter for 226 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:39,679 Speaker 2: the four. So I I you can't be excited. 227 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 1: Is there anything else in a little video clip that 228 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 1: caught your eye that was released to a couple of 229 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:43,559 Speaker 1: days ago. 230 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 3: No, it's like they're very intentional, was just giving us 231 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:48,599 Speaker 3: a little bit. We'll just see a guy take like 232 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 3: one shot. There goes the next guy and he's taking 233 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,600 Speaker 3: a shot. One person I've gotten excited just from interviews 234 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 3: and seeing a little glimpse is uh Tega tron O Tega. 235 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 3: Oh way, I guess we're calling him Tegatron now another 236 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 3: guy that is when Pope was adding ten players in 237 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:06,960 Speaker 3: three weeks back in May. You know, we're flying one 238 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:08,559 Speaker 3: after another, and I feel like he kind of flew 239 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 3: under the radar when we're looking at that roster. I 240 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:12,560 Speaker 3: don't know where he'll fit in, probably gonna be coming 241 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 3: off the bench, but that's a guy. I'm excited to 242 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:15,679 Speaker 3: see what he brings the table, just a little different 243 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 3: than everyone else with his athleticism and physicality and little defense. 244 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:22,680 Speaker 1: I think the big competition is gonna be who's gonna 245 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:25,559 Speaker 1: be the point guard. I think with Jackson Robinson and 246 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 1: Braya and Andrew Carr, those three guys are probably got 247 00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 1: their spots locked up. 248 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 3: But the point guard, I think Lamont Butler is your 249 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 3: is your point guard. 250 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 2: But if Chris is that good and he can show. 251 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 3: There's gonna be a lot of sharing. Like in the 252 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 3: cal Era, dudes were playing thirty something minutes a game, 253 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:44,719 Speaker 3: that is gone. That is that is Pope didn't have 254 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 3: anyone last year average thirty minutes a game. There's a 255 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 3: bunch of dudes getting somewhere in the twenties. So sure, 256 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,679 Speaker 3: I think Butler there might Heck, it could change throughout 257 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 3: the year. I think Lamont Butler's probably gonna be the 258 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 3: starter right away at point guard, but it could be situational. 259 00:09:57,880 --> 00:09:59,559 Speaker 3: He could be passed. I think we're gonna see a 260 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 3: lot of guys play a lot of minutes and different roles. 261 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:03,679 Speaker 1: And he's mentioned Taka Tron. Is he more of a 262 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:07,440 Speaker 1: point guard? He think he'll play we win two or three? Yeah, yeah, 263 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 1: two or three. 264 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:11,839 Speaker 3: Hopefully a good defender because that's what this team that's 265 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:12,880 Speaker 3: gonna be a big question mark. 266 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 1: The guys that uh Brandon Ramsey talked about down at 267 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:17,959 Speaker 1: rock Hill that Mark Pope was looking at me and 268 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:21,680 Speaker 1: we mentioned the guys from Kentucky, Jasper Johnson and Malachi Marino, 269 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 1: two top prospects out of Kentucky. Malachi is dan in 270 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 1: rock Hill, I think right now, but there's some other 271 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:27,840 Speaker 1: guys at Kentucky. 272 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 2: I want to make sure. 273 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:33,200 Speaker 1: People are aware of Cayden Magwood, who's from Louisville played 274 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 1: at Oak Hill last year, and I think he's gonna 275 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,199 Speaker 1: play at a different prep school this year. But he's 276 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:41,600 Speaker 1: got offers from like Alabama, Auburn, a bunch of schools, 277 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 1: and he's you know, poping staff watched him get Pope 278 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 1: and Heart are down there. They watched him yesterday. Caden 279 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 1: Magwood's the name to keep an eye on. 280 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's it's crazy. We went for a long time 281 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 3: without in state talent. Now it seems to be a 282 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 3: little bit every year. You got to keep an eye 283 00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 3: on and hope they get an offer. And obviously signed 284 00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:01,679 Speaker 3: three in the last few years.

You've got any scoop? 290 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:16,079 Speaker 2: I don't.

It's best for Kentucky to keep 298 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: him here. I know he's got to do what he's 299 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:35,840 Speaker 1: got to do. But we can't let that gal leave 300 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 1: the state, especially when your dad played here, your grandpa 301 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:39,959 Speaker 1: used to work here, your uncle played here. 302 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 7: Uh. 303 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,080 Speaker 1: In the twenty twenty sixth class, there's a guy named 304 00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 1: Taylan Kenney who's played at Newport High School. Newport almost 305 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 1: won the All A Classic, made a big run in 306 00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 1: the sweet sixteen.

That's what I think 581 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:20,239 Speaker 7: they're really looking to do is get space because they 582 00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:23,520 Speaker 7: want to A lot of this is about cutting and. 583 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:25,880 Speaker 5: Moving the ball. 584 00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:28,600 Speaker 7: I don't think they want a ton of dribbling, so 585 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:31,199 Speaker 7: they want the floor space. Then you do that by 586 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 7: any being able to take and make threes, and then 587 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:38,400 Speaker 7: you can make you know, cuts behind that and ball 588 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:40,680 Speaker 7: comes off long, you rebound it, kick it over to 589 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 7: somebody for another open three. So a lot of it 590 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:46,199 Speaker 7: is just about you know, finding ways to maybe it's 591 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:49,680 Speaker 7: a dribble penetration at times, to kick it out, set 592 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:51,680 Speaker 7: up somebody for an open three. So it's gonna be 593 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 7: I think a lot of fun to watch. I think 594 00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:55,639 Speaker 7: the ball is gonna move well.

Did you in a million 668 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 3: years think that that's what you would be looking at 669 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 3: from that stage? 670 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 7: No, I mean it's I think they were looking at 671 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,960 Speaker 7: maybe five to seven thousand people, think you know what 672 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:38,000 Speaker 7: I thought, they the probably university officials and people up arena, 673 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 7: and you know, then you saw the people lined up 674 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 7: outside early in the day, yes, and I'm thinking, well, 675 00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:50,480 Speaker 7: maybe they can, maybe they could, you know, but I 676 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:53,520 Speaker 7: thought was could they fill up the lower bowl, which 677 00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:56,000 Speaker 7: was as I think, the around ten or eleven. And 678 00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:57,840 Speaker 7: but then the way when I got there and saw 679 00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:01,359 Speaker 7: that it was set up, I walked out. It was 680 00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:04,159 Speaker 7: about a half hour before the news conference, and it 681 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:06,960 Speaker 7: was full on one side that the podium was facing, 682 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:09,720 Speaker 7: and all the way to the top it was about 683 00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:10,880 Speaker 7: half the arena. 684 00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:13,240 Speaker 5: And I thought, boy, that is incredibly impressive. 685 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 7: And then I turned to the right and behind the 686 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 7: podium and you see people running like you know when 687 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:24,360 Speaker 7: they used to have general admission concerts and they'd opened 688 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:24,680 Speaker 7: the door. 689 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:27,200 Speaker 3: They were spring you were not exaggerated. People were spreading 690 00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:28,160 Speaker 3: to find a spot. 691 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:31,120 Speaker 7: Yes, And I thought, wow, they're gonna get some people 692 00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:33,920 Speaker 7: here on this other side too, And it just kept 693 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:37,399 Speaker 7: growing and growing, and that'll be something people will talk about, 694 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 7: you know, for years, you know, people who were there 695 00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 7: certainly or saw it, and especially if this works as 696 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:47,640 Speaker 7: well as we all hope it will, that's gonna just 697 00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:50,480 Speaker 7: be so finally remembered as kind of the launching point, 698 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 7: and it was amazing. I actually sent this to Mitch 699 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 7: and I've told this story before. They I guess was 700 00:28:57,960 --> 00:28:59,920 Speaker 7: Friday morning. It was Thursday night the story started to 701 00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 7: break that it was going to be Mark Pope, and 702 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 7: Friday morning, a listener sent me a note on x Twitter, 703 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 7: this is a disaster, Fira Barnhardt. Four hours later, same guy, 704 00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 7: I'm on board with this. 705 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:13,600 Speaker 5: That's roll. 706 00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:16,560 Speaker 3: I think that was about a ninety percent of the 707 00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 3: fan base myself, and it's been rolling ever since. 708 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:23,280 Speaker 1: So what is what do you foresee as Pope's biggest 709 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:27,760 Speaker 1: obstacle he has to get over all? The biggest sticking 710 00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:29,000 Speaker 1: point for his in year one? 711 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:32,960 Speaker 7: I think probably just I think he gets probably a 712 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 7: little bit of a honeymoon as much as you ever 713 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:39,400 Speaker 7: could for Kentucky basketball coach about any sport these days. 714 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:44,120 Speaker 7: But uh so, I think the biggest challenge is just 715 00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 7: blending all those different guys. I mean, can you know, 716 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:50,560 Speaker 7: get two guys that were the walk Ons that were 717 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 7: here last year and he had Jackson Robinson that played 718 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 7: for Mark. But I mean they're coming from all these 719 00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:58,920 Speaker 7: different backgrounds and you're putting them into a system where 720 00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 7: it depends heavily on how well they learned to play 721 00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:06,320 Speaker 7: with and off each other, and so they've got to 722 00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 7: develop that chemistry, bond, whatever term you want to use 723 00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:12,640 Speaker 7: on court chemistry. I think, yeah, it seems like a 724 00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 7: really good group of guys, and they're older. I think 725 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:17,920 Speaker 7: the you know, off the court, they'll get along well. 726 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 7: Certainly all the signs are good on that, but the 727 00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:23,520 Speaker 7: on court chemistry, how good can that get? 728 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:26,360 Speaker 3: Do you have any we like getting some of the 729 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:28,080 Speaker 3: behind the scenes stuff from you. Do you have any 730 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 3: Mark Pope memories from before he was the head coach, 731 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:34,160 Speaker 3: any younger Mark Pope interactions or anything like that. Maybe 732 00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:35,960 Speaker 3: as a player, just him popping in. 733 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:39,719 Speaker 7: I wouldn't was it doing the game at that at 734 00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:41,600 Speaker 7: the time, So I was just covering the team, you know, 735 00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:44,760 Speaker 7: covering news conferences, and I didn't go to practices then. 736 00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 7: So I don't have any particularly great stories. Ryan and 737 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:51,480 Speaker 7: my wife and those folks from Channel eight teen would 738 00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:54,800 Speaker 7: have the best stories, because yeah, my wife, Robin was 739 00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 7: working in eli X at that time as an anchor 740 00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:00,600 Speaker 7: and she went on some of the road trips covering 741 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:03,000 Speaker 7: the Cats that you guys were on in the button days, 742 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 7: Crazy button days. People want those? Mark and Mark worked 743 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:09,479 Speaker 7: there for a year.

That's you know, 803 00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:36,880 Speaker 7: going to practices and then you know, reading about the 804 00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:41,920 Speaker 7: other team and coming up. I do my spotting board 805 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:44,560 Speaker 7: that's the depth chart to the top two or three 806 00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:48,440 Speaker 7: at each position for each team offense and defense on 807 00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 7: one side, like home or Kentucky offense opponent defense, and 808 00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:55,520 Speaker 7: then vice versa on the other side, and do all 809 00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:59,240 Speaker 7: that by hand because it helps with the memorization process, 810 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:04,040 Speaker 7: and then try to come up with with notes nuggets 811 00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:08,440 Speaker 7: of things you can drop in. Tom Hammond, I remember 812 00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:10,759 Speaker 7: telling me one time, you know, you prepare as much 813 00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:13,719 Speaker 7: as you can come up with with knowing that you 814 00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:16,320 Speaker 7: might if you're lucky, you get fifty percent of it in, 815 00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:18,440 Speaker 7: but you just don't know what fifty percent, so. 816 00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:19,240 Speaker 5: You have it already. 817 00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:25,640 Speaker 7: And then when Jim host hired me Wisard Jim. One 818 00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:28,160 Speaker 7: of the things Jim talked about was, you know, the 819 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:30,560 Speaker 7: the beat writer, which I think may have been Jerry 820 00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:33,840 Speaker 7: in those days. Jerry Tipton may have been doing football 821 00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:36,239 Speaker 7: in ninety seven. If not, it was probably John Clay 822 00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:40,160 Speaker 7: and he's anyway, he said, whoever the beat writer is 823 00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:43,160 Speaker 7: gonna in the newspaper the next day on Sunday morning, 824 00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:45,320 Speaker 7: they're going to have all these notes that you know, 825 00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:48,799 Speaker 7: it was Tim Couch's six three hundred yard passing game, 826 00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:51,400 Speaker 7: or it was R two Spinner's second one hundred yard 827 00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:53,640 Speaker 7: rushing game. And he said the goal should be they 828 00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 7: shouldn't read anything in the paper that they didn't already 829 00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:59,759 Speaker 7: hear from you today with podcast. Yeah, so kind of 830 00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:02,560 Speaker 7: just to be ready for a lot of that stuff. 831 00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:06,960 Speaker 7: And then Ralph Hacker was great in terms of kind 832 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:09,799 Speaker 7: of the way I kind of set up the board 833 00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:11,479 Speaker 7: and everything. A lot of this is about football because 834 00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:14,799 Speaker 7: it takes a greater amount of prep. But I've got 835 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:17,400 Speaker 7: you know, the spotting boards I use for football and 836 00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:21,480 Speaker 7: the scoring board I use for basketball. All that is 837 00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:26,560 Speaker 7: I got from Ralph and the mid eighties somewhere. But 838 00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:30,640 Speaker 7: basketball takes about half as much time, but you have 839 00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:33,600 Speaker 7: to at least two games most weeks, so it ends 840 00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:35,720 Speaker 7: up being about the same amount of time total. 841 00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:38,239 Speaker 3: Second part of that question from Clutch Cargo, it's it 842 00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:41,160 Speaker 3: was on KS board? Is the pronunciation of names you mentioned? 843 00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:43,680 Speaker 3: K would we talk about how you'd have to rehearse 844 00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:46,200 Speaker 3: how's that word you have to call the school sometimes? 845 00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:47,800 Speaker 5: Or done that? Done that? 846 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:51,480 Speaker 7: I remember one time I got burned on a guy 847 00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:55,160 Speaker 7: from Kansas because I used the first one I saw 848 00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:56,920 Speaker 7: in the notes, and later in the notes it was 849 00:35:57,440 --> 00:36:03,480 Speaker 7: listed different, but I put it phonetically. So if you 850 00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:06,720 Speaker 7: see the spotting board, however his name might be spelled 851 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:08,799 Speaker 7: it may you know, I may spell it differently or whatever. 852 00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:11,239 Speaker 7: Just from the standpoint of that doesn't matter if I 853 00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:14,520 Speaker 7: misspell it, but it doesn't matter if I mispronounce it. 854 00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 7: So I'll have it, uh, you know, spelled out phonetically 855 00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:22,640 Speaker 7: and highlighted if it's something tricky. And then you know 856 00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:25,880 Speaker 7: some of them like the Kentucky guys, and you you 857 00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:30,279 Speaker 7: get just from repetition, but the opponent, especially if it's 858 00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:33,439 Speaker 7: something unusual. Uh and there's one of them that's coming 859 00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:36,160 Speaker 7: to mind. H from Indiana football player went on to 860 00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:39,279 Speaker 7: play for the Bears at a Walia gunlier. That's one 861 00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:41,800 Speaker 7: I would like that day, the first time you got that, 862 00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:44,319 Speaker 7: you're just for you know, a lot of the day, 863 00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:50,880 Speaker 7: just kind of saying AULI. So consequently it's still with me. 864 00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:54,160 Speaker 3: The question referenced the I guess the Russian team came here? 865 00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:55,480 Speaker 3: And Kay, what I guess? I do a lot of 866 00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:56,319 Speaker 3: rehearsing for them. 867 00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:59,839 Speaker 7: Well, okay, Kay, it was a funny story of Ralph 868 00:36:59,880 --> 00:37:02,800 Speaker 7: to me one time that Ralph was working on pronunciations 869 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:05,279 Speaker 7: and uh, kay would said, Ralph, don't worry about it 870 00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:07,400 Speaker 7: was Czechoslovakia team or something, don't you don't have to 871 00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:09,800 Speaker 7: worry as much about that. Their mama's and daddy's ain't listening. 872 00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:11,840 Speaker 7: Of course, now they can't. 873 00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:14,440 Speaker 1: Be a five nine, two eighth, two weeks and we've 874 00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:16,400 Speaker 1: got some callers online and probably got some questions for you. 875 00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:17,680 Speaker 2: So what's to take a couple of them?
