1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:02,520
Speaker 1: One of the biggest misconceptions about buying a home right

2
00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:04,520
Speaker 1: now is that you have to wait for the perfect moment,

3
00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:08,879
Speaker 1: perfect rates, perfect timing, perfect market. The truth is that

4
00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:12,120
Speaker 1: moment doesn't really exist. A lot of buyers pause because

5
00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:16,160
Speaker 1: of headlines or assumptions, but every situation is different. Race change,

6
00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:19,360
Speaker 1: market shift, and personal goals matter just as much as

7
00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:22,319
Speaker 1: what's happening nationally. That's why talking to a local lender

8
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:24,880
Speaker 1: can be so valuable. When you contact Doctor Mortgage, you

9
00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:27,560
Speaker 1: get paired up with a local lender. That lender will

10
00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:30,040
Speaker 1: give you your options. That lender will explain the situation.

11
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:32,960
Speaker 1: You can ask your own questions. That's what it's all about,

12
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:35,080
Speaker 1: getting to the closing table as simple and as easy

13
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:35,720
Speaker 1: as possible.

Speaker 3: Welcome to our two of Kentucky Sports Radio, presented by

24
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:07,080
Speaker 3: Stockton Mortgage. Now here's Matt Jones.

25
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:09,200
Speaker 4: More go back. It is our number two here at

26
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:15,240
Speaker 4: the Hopkins County, Kentucky Sports Factory in Madisonville. An absolutely

27
00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 4: amazing crowd here with the city of Madisonville. In my opinion,

28
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:23,480
Speaker 4: we don't have scientific records on this, but probably breaking

29
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:27,480
Speaker 4: the record for most people at a remote outside if

30
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 4: I got reminded the time we did it at the

31
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:31,800
Speaker 4: Final four, and there was and then maybe, but by

32
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 4: outside of those kind of going to a major UK

33
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:38,559
Speaker 4: event and doing the pregame right before it, I think

34
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,800
Speaker 4: this is probably the largest crowd we've had and certainly

35
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:44,759
Speaker 4: the most fun and it's great to see and I

36
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:48,240
Speaker 4: personally thank you for doing this for my man Drew

37
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:50,680

00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:56,120
Speaker 4: five two five four. A couple comments. One person rites, Matt,

40
00:01:56,600 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 4: you're always trying to create controversy with Mark Pope. He

41
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 4: doesn't owe anyone an explanation about his hirings. He's the coach.

42
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 4: You all should shut up, but would be very hard

43
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 4: to do a show if we shut up all the time,

44
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 4: I would respectfully disagree Ryan that the coach of a

45
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:25,400
Speaker 4: public university does not does not owe the people who

46
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:29,440
Speaker 4: are the fans of a public school explanations. I think

47
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 4: that's part of the part of the gig. I mean,

48
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:33,800
Speaker 4: one of the things I love about Mark Pope is

49
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 4: he says all the time. I think I heard him

50
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 4: say yesterday he was like, yes, there's a lot of pressure,

51
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 4: but you should I think he said the pressure is

52
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 4: beautiful because if he don't have pressure, that means it

53
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:45,960
Speaker 4: doesn't matter. And if it doesn't matter, then why are

54
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 4: we doing this? And I appreciate he gets all that,

55
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 4: but part of that pressure means, you know what, Yes,

56
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 4: we care about this stuff, and you do need to

57
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,800
Speaker 4: explain it to us. This is not you know, you

58
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 4: don't just get to live in secrecy. And I think

59
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 4: fans have a right to wonder about whether this is

60
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 4: gonna happen.

61
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,240
Speaker 1: When you sit in that chair, you have to understand

62
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 1: what this program means to not just us, but the

63
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 1: entire state from border to border. We live and die

64
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:12,080
Speaker 1: with this program. But did he really say beautiful pressure?

65
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 5: It's beautiful.

66
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 4: I actually think he did say beautiful pressure.

67
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 5: Beautiful because it's special next to work in that space.

68
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 2: He's an elite, elite elite.

69
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:22,840
Speaker 3: I mean, he asked us, you know, to criticize him

70
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:24,680
Speaker 3: when things aren't going well, So we're doing it.

71
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 5: He asked for it.

72
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:27,680
Speaker 6: My thing is if they like hearing go Big Blue

73
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,360
Speaker 6: on the road, or they could play a game on

74
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:31,920
Speaker 6: the moon and Kentucky fans would go when things aren't

75
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:34,680
Speaker 6: going well, those people are gonna have opinions Like when

76
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 6: Kentucky's at their best, you love how good the fan

77
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 6: base is, but when you're barely getting into the tournament,

78
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 6: you can't be surprised when those same people are upset.

79
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 4: The reason there are all of these people here is

80
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 4: because Kentucky basketball matters to people in a way that

81
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 4: it just doesn't matter anywhere else. And that and that

82
00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 4: that is oh was that gonna say this anyway? But

83
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 4: I'll that is beautiful in a lot of wayscial and

84
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 4: but you have to embrace it. Listen, I say this

85
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,440
Speaker 4: all the time. No one cares about this like we do.

86
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 4: You know, I went to Duke, I've been to Duke

87
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,599
Speaker 4: in North Carolina games. They care, But it's not the

88
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:21,320
Speaker 4: same as this, it's different, like it's different. Probably the

89
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 4: only place on Earth that cares like we do might

90
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 4: be Kansas, right, So you know, but with that comes intent,

91
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 4: you know, more scrutiny. We've been to NBA games where

92
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:35,440
Speaker 4: there are fewer reporters than there are at Kentucky games.

93
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 4: That's just kind of you know how it is. And

94
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 4: so that comes with the with the territory. A couple

95
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,840
Speaker 4: things here. First of all, the women's team. I don't

96
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 4: want to skip the women's team. They're good, and they

97
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:50,560
Speaker 4: play Saturday or Sunday, excuse me, against South Carolina, right

98
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 4: in the final game of the season. They play the

99
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:55,480
Speaker 4: most powerful team in the country on a year in

100
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 4: year up basis, South Carolina. This is a huge game

101
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:02,000
Speaker 4: for Kentucky. If they could win, they have a chance

102
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 4: to get I don't know, three seed, maybe a four

103
00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:08,360
Speaker 4: seed in the NCAA Tournament. And anytime you get Don

104
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:10,600
Speaker 4: Staley in South Carolina coming in, if you can get

105
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,160
Speaker 4: a win, it's huge for your program. You think they

106
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:13,679
Speaker 4: have a shot.

107
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 1: I think they have a shot because it's at home.

108
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously South Carolina is great, but you're right,

109
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 1: there's a lot of stake If Kentucky can get one

110
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:20,840
Speaker 1: of that three or four seed, they can host those

111
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,240
Speaker 1: first two round games in Lexington. That's kind of so

112
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,560
Speaker 1: huge importance. So they can pull this one out. Man,

113
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,279
Speaker 1: it could really change a lot of things for March Maddens.

114
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 4: If you look at the women's bracketology, if Kentucky could

115
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,720
Speaker 4: win Sunday, they could get to host, which in the

116
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 4: women's tournament, I like the men's the first two rounds

117
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 4: are in home Arinas. Yeah, they could get a chance

118
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:39,840
Speaker 4: to host. So this is a big game.

119
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 6: For I mean, they could be our March Madness that

120
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:47,200
Speaker 6: we follow this year. You know that's legitimately, Yes, you

121
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 6: see's so tough. They've had some bad losses, but I

122
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,800
Speaker 6: think when you have a player like Clara Strack, there's

123
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:53,599
Speaker 6: just not many of her. When they get to the tournament,

124
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 6: they are set up to make a good run. I

125
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 6: think last year that heartbreaking loss where Georgia Amore had

126
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:00,839
Speaker 6: the look and it fell. I could touched the rim

127
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 6: nine times and didn't go in. I'm excited to see

128
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 6: them maybe take a step further in the second year

129
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:06,000
Speaker 6: of Kenny Brooks.

130
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:08,760
Speaker 4: I also Shannon had a saw a story today that

131
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 4: I thought you would like this morning. Okay, so you

132
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 4: know I'm I can be like sort of a law

133
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 4: nerd a little bit.

134
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 2: Yep.

135
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,880
Speaker 4: And then all right, So for years, going back twenty years,

136
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,239
Speaker 4: if you want to read about the Supreme Court, then

137
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:26,520
Speaker 4: there's only one place to do it. It's called Scotus Blog.

138
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:28,720
Speaker 4: All right, Supreme Court of the United States? What are

139
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 4: you laughing at? This sounds fun. I'm sure you got.

140
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:33,320
Speaker 6: I haven't seen that part of the internet yet.

141
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:35,839
Speaker 4: Ryan spends a lot of time on scots Blog.

142
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:37,320
Speaker 1: When I need to go to sleep, I just pull

143
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:37,720
Speaker 1: that out.

144
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 2: And read it.

145
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 4: So Scott, all right, you know, listen while going on

146
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:49,000
Speaker 4: in scots Blog, don't Ryan, you don't want me looking

147
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,240
Speaker 4: at your search history. Let's just leave it a back.

148
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,600
Speaker 4: If the worst thing I do is go to Scotus Blog.

149
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:59,039
Speaker 4: But it's run by Shannon this guy, this law firm

150
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,520
Speaker 4: that does Supreme Court litigation. And I've known this guy's

151
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:06,280
Speaker 4: name forever. His name's Thomas Goldstein. And so for years,

152
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 4: like part of me is like, man, that would have

153
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 4: been a cool place to work because he does well.

154
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 4: I just found out he got convicted yesterday and is

155
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:17,360
Speaker 4: going to federal prison for anywhere from five to thirty

156
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 4: years for not paying his taxes.

157
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 5: You can't be doing that, Which.

158
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,920
Speaker 4: For a dude who spends his life covering the Supreme Court,

159
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 4: maybe he should have known that. But then you read

160
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 4: the details of what he did. He was a high

161
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 4: stakes poker player, Okay, would play in these huge poker tournaments,

162
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 4: and he was really good, and he would win a

163
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,360
Speaker 4: lot of money and then try to hide it from

164
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 4: the irs. And again, this is a guy who spends

165
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 4: his life arguing in front of the Supreme Court and

166
00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 4: writing about the Supreme Court. The details of what he

167
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 4: did are wild. He one time was playing one on

168
00:07:54,960 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 4: one poker, okay, me versus you for two straight days,

169
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 4: and he won a lot of money from the guy

170
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 4: he was playing. Take a guess how much money this

171
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 4: dude won playing one on one poker with a rich,

172
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 4: unnamed businessman.

173
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 3: You say a lot of money, I mean that could

174
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 3: be anywhere.

175
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 5: I'm going to say one hundred grand.

176
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 4: One hundred grand, what do you think?

177
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 2: Five million?

178
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 4: He won fifty one million dollars, My goodness, from one guy.

179
00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:30,760
Speaker 2: Oh my, fifty.

180
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:34,080
Speaker 4: One million dollars from one guy. First of all, how

181
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 4: bad is that guy? Yeah?

182
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 5: And how much money do you have if you're willing

183
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 5: to bet fifty one million.

184
00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 4: And lose it just one on one, No big deal.

185
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 4: So then he tries to hide the fifty one million

186
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:47,440
Speaker 4: dollars and he tries to do all this stuff. Now,

187
00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 4: because he was in this poker world, lots of poker

188
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:54,560
Speaker 4: people used him as their lawyer. He represented Toby McGuire,

189
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 4: you know, the actor Toby McGuire. Toby McGuire had been

190
00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,320
Speaker 4: playing one on one poker. He won seven million dollars

191
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:05,840
Speaker 4: from a businessman. The businessman didn't pay. He hires the

192
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:10,440
Speaker 4: lawyer to go and get the money. For lawyer does it,

193
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:14,600
Speaker 4: gets the judgment. He owes Toby McGuire five hundred thousand

194
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 4: dollars for or Toby maguire owes him five hundred thousand

195
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 4: dollars for his legal services. He tells Toby McGuire, hey, man,

196
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:24,440
Speaker 4: instead of paying me, just pay this guy over there,

197
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 4: somebody he owed money to.

198
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 5: Uh huh.

199
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,160
Speaker 4: Tobyguire testifies in federal court that was one of the

200
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 4: ways he would try to keep the IRS from seeing

201
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 4: his money. He would make his legal fees paid out

202
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 4: to other people and then write to the irs that

203
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:40,800
Speaker 4: he it was paid to him. So he did this

204
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,079
Speaker 4: entire scheme and now he's going to prison. This is

205
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:46,480
Speaker 4: a guy who spent his entire life covering the Supreme Court,

206
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 4: and now he will go to prison for high for hiding.

207
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 3: Mouth the case of somebody that's really smart that thinks

208
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 3: they can out smart the governor. You know, the everybody

209
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,240
Speaker 3: yell the I R s where these one on one poker?

210
00:09:58,440 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 6: That's what happening.

211
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:02,760
Speaker 4: And somebody's who is the person that can lose fifty

212
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:05,640
Speaker 4: one million dollars in a one on one poker? Who

213
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 4: is that person?

214
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 2: Billionaire?

215
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:10,600
Speaker 4: It's unbelievable. If you haven't seen it, read the story.

216
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 4: There's a long magazine article about what all he did.

217
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 4: There's also some other stuff that like I don't want

218
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,200
Speaker 4: to get into with all these children here, but just

219
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 4: just read about this dude crazy.

220
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:22,520
Speaker 5: So I feel like a whole underground poker thing going on.

221
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,079
Speaker 4: You know that you didn't know? Yeah, yeah, who's up next?

222
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 6: Bumblebee?

223
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,760
Speaker 4: Bumblebee? Go ahead, bumblebee?

224
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:31,560
Speaker 7: Amen.

225
00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:32,920
Speaker 4: Yes.

226
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:37,000
Speaker 7: First of all, congratulations to Drew of notice since he

227
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,839
Speaker 7: was a little kid, I lived the master for thirteen years.

228
00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:42,679
Speaker 7: Now live back home now, Sturly he's friends with my

229
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 7: son Brandon. But my name is Dwayne Lee.

230
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:46,840
Speaker 6: Oh hey, Dwayne, thank you.

231
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,880
Speaker 7: Yeah, you guys were name dropping and I was surprised

232
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:53,200
Speaker 7: Drew didn't bring this one up. But most of the

233
00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:55,520
Speaker 7: crowd might agree with me, and Drew with too. But

234
00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,679
Speaker 7: one of the best dual sport athletes to ever come

235
00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 7: out of there to me was Michael the Hammer Hamy.

236
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:06,559
Speaker 7: He played at Eastern and basketball, played overseas and pro.

237
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 7: He also could have been a pro football player, but

238
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 7: he chose basketball.

239
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:14,040
Speaker 4: Michael the Hammer is a very good nickname, so when

240
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:14,960
Speaker 4: I went to school.

241
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:16,199
Speaker 6: With him, I don't remember calling him the Hammer. That

242
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:18,520
Speaker 6: might have just been between you and Michael, but he

243
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:22,160
Speaker 6: was very good. I mean, your name is Bumblebee.

244
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:25,559
Speaker 4: Maybe you had the pet names for each other, Bumblebee

245
00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 4: and the Hammer.

246
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 7: That's right. That's right. And give a shout out to

247
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:31,720
Speaker 7: Frank though I haven't seen him in the New Years either.

248
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:33,359
Speaker 2: Thank you.

249
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 4: I appreciate the call.

250
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 6: You was good got us to state when I was

251
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:36,440
Speaker 6: in school.

252
00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 4: Who's up next, DG, DG, Go ahead.

253
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:43,320
Speaker 8: What's up guys?

254
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:43,720
Speaker 4: Real quick?

255
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:44,920
Speaker 8: I want to give a shout out to one of

256
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:49,600
Speaker 8: my best friends from Madisonville. Mason Rowland played collegiate basketball

257
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,280
Speaker 8: and owns broughtup bresh University with him, So shout out

258
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 8: to him in Madisonville. One quick thing. So looking, you know,

259
00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 8: obviously everybody knows in March guards winning mark. So over

260
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:03,080
Speaker 8: the past four games, you know, looking at say Owa

261
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 8: and Denzel Aberdeen, Oway averaging, I think it's like nineteen

262
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:09,480
Speaker 8: and a half and Aberdeen at sixteen and a half.

263
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 8: And Chandler has been shooting the ball.

264
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:12,199
Speaker 9: Very well as of late.

265
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 8: Do you think, looking ahead of March, the inconsistency of

266
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:23,400
Speaker 8: the big get well here, I think you.

267
00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,560
Speaker 4: You make a very good point about the guards, all right, So,

268
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 4: and I appreciate the call. If you look at the

269
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 4: history of ryan of NCAA tournament teams that win, it

270
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:36,000
Speaker 4: is very, very very rare for a team to win

271
00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 4: a title whose best players are big. It's not I mean,

272
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:43,280
Speaker 4: we did with Anthony Davis, but it is rare. Usually

273
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:47,240
Speaker 4: in March, guards win titles, yep, and guards take teams

274
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:49,720
Speaker 4: to the final four. So if you were wanting to

275
00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:53,839
Speaker 4: be optimistic about Kentucky's March run, it's a good sign

276
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,959
Speaker 4: that our three best players are probably the guards now

277
00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:01,440
Speaker 4: those guards can be inconsistent, you know, they Chandler can

278
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 4: go cold, Away has missus layups. Obviously, Aberdeen had a

279
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:07,800
Speaker 4: bad first half of the year. But if you wanted to

280
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 4: be optimistic, a case for us being good is the

281
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:14,080
Speaker 4: best teams in March usually ride their guards, and we

282
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:15,240
Speaker 4: do have really good guards.

283
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:17,480
Speaker 1: And I think Oway and Aberdeen and Channa could carry

284
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 1: a team through a couple of games in March mans

285
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 1: for sure. But we saw what South Carolina did. Ohway,

286
00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:24,079
Speaker 1: they said, okay, you Oa and Channel, they're not gonna

287
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:25,839
Speaker 1: beat this, We're gonna take them out and that.

288
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:29,160
Speaker 4: But then Aberdeen, Aberdeen's got stem Dia Bata in the

289
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:31,800
Speaker 4: second half. I don't think most teams are gonna do

290
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:35,440
Speaker 4: what South Carolina did. And remember if Trent, Noah and

291
00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 4: Yellovich hit threes that strategy, we would have blown them out. Yeah,

292
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:40,240
Speaker 4: but they just missed them.

293
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:44,120
Speaker 6: Yeah, I guess Trent, Jasper and Yellovich were one for

294
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:47,800
Speaker 6: eleven from three. I'm trying to do the mass twelve.

295
00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:49,400
Speaker 2: Uh yeah.

296
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 6: But also think to games where you have oh way,

297
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:53,440
Speaker 6: have two career highs back to back, you end up

298
00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:57,480
Speaker 6: losing someone of that the bench or maybe Yellovich starting

299
00:13:57,480 --> 00:13:59,520
Speaker 6: at the four. Someone else is gonna have to lift

300
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:01,280
Speaker 6: up and help those guards, because I agree that the

301
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:03,319
Speaker 6: guards can carry them, but they're still gonna need someone

302
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:04,840
Speaker 6: else to rise to I mean, part of.

303
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:07,480
Speaker 4: The reason, Shannon, why I don't think Florida can repeat

304
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:09,679
Speaker 4: is I don't think their guards are good enough. They

305
00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:11,840
Speaker 4: got great bigs, but I don't think their guards are

306
00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:13,640
Speaker 4: good enough, and in them in March, it's just you.

307
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:16,760
Speaker 4: There's exceptions, but you tend to win with guards. I

308
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:19,800
Speaker 4: do think our guards have developed into being very good.

309
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:20,120
Speaker 5: They have.

310
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:22,520
Speaker 3: And if I'm playing Kentucky, I think I would take

311
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:25,160
Speaker 3: the South Carolina approach, shut down O way and then

312
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 3: if the other guys beat you, so be it.

313
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 5: Let the chips fall where they may.

314
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:30,840
Speaker 3: But you know, always was average of what twenty eight

315
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 3: twenty nine points per game the last two or three,

316
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 3: so you shut him down.

317
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:37,040
Speaker 5: I think I would take my chances doing that.

318
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:39,240
Speaker 6: And watch Chandler in the postseason. How many times has

319
00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 6: he shown us he'll make a play in the final

320
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,120
Speaker 6: minutes in a tight game, and you need that kind

321
00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:45,000
Speaker 6: of attitude and that kind of player in the tournament.

322
00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 6: Hopefully we even have an opportunity for him to do it.

323
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:49,720
Speaker 6: But imagine him hitting one of those threes to take

324
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:51,320
Speaker 6: you to the next weekend or something like that.

325

Speaker 4: We just had some of the food they have here

349
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:04,520
Speaker 4: at the back porch grill. It was great. The Big

350

351
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:09,880
Speaker 4: this is really really good. Big Blue Blast is what

352
00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:13,800
Speaker 4: it's called, and it's got various levels of caffeine and

353
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:16,080
Speaker 4: it is This is excellent. I can this woke me

354
00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:18,840
Speaker 4: up today. And all the really good food. And they

355
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,840
Speaker 4: have corn nuggets for those of you that are Cover

356
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,880
Speaker 4: zero listeners. We talked about corn nuggets all year because

357
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:26,680
Speaker 4: I didn't think you could get them anywhere except the

358
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 4: Middlesborough High School cafeteria. And now you can get them

359
00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:31,600
Speaker 4: here as well in Madisonville.

360
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,960
Speaker 6: I used to have them at West Broadway Elementary. This

361
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:36,480
Speaker 6: is the probably thirty years since I've seen those, so

362
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 6: I'm excited to have them.

363
00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:40,800
Speaker 4: I didn't know they did that anywhere else one person

364
00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:44,200
Speaker 4: or by the way, Kentucky. It's not on draftings yet,

365
00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:48,880
Speaker 4: but on another betting site which we don't acknowledge them.

366
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:52,640
Speaker 4: There is another site Kentucky is a one and a

367
00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:54,000
Speaker 4: half point favorite.

368
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 2: Interesting.

369
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:57,680
Speaker 6: I a little bit of a dog, is that.

370
00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 4: But that's a surprise to me. I like it, though.

371
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 4: I mean, the dude in the gold chain over there

372
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:07,480
Speaker 4: doesn't like it because he's evil. But besides him, besides him,

373
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:09,800
Speaker 4: I think you gotta be that's kind of surprising.

374
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 3: But I like it, considering Vanderbilt has their second leading

375
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:14,680
Speaker 3: score back who they didn't have in the first game.

376
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 5: That is Duke Miles.

377
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:18,040
Speaker 4: Yeah he's back, Yes.

378
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, good point. He played last week. This last game, though,

379
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:21,040
Speaker 1: I actually don't like it.

380
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:22,600
Speaker 6: I was hoping to get some points. I was gonna

381
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 6: bet us. I was hoping to get about two.

382
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:28,520
Speaker 4: One person rights. Matt, the combine is going on. How

383
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:31,280
Speaker 4: about some of how our UK guys have done been

384
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:32,159
Speaker 4: kind of surprising?

385
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:32,359
Speaker 2: You know.

386
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:36,240
Speaker 4: The football season, we didn't feel like we had a

387
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:39,600
Speaker 4: lot of guys who would get drafted. It's looking like

388
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:42,760
Speaker 4: at least two of our guys may get drafted, maybe

389
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,880
Speaker 4: even three, and another one might be the fastest player

390
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:48,600
Speaker 4: at the combine. So we'll go through it. David Gusta,

391
00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:52,280
Speaker 4: who played on the defensive line last year. Some people

392
00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:54,359
Speaker 4: may not even remember that he was on the team,

393
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:56,440
Speaker 4: although he played pretty well some of the year.

394
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:57,960
Speaker 6: He's one of the biggest transfers that go.

395
00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:02,560
Speaker 4: David Gusta ran like a four to eight forty. He

396
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:07,040
Speaker 4: did forty reps, which is like a crazy amount apparently

397
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:10,119
Speaker 4: on the bench press, and he's like considered one of

398
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,800
Speaker 4: the best performers so far in the combine. So we're

399
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:14,360
Speaker 4: probably gonna see to him get drafted.

400
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 6: Yeah, he was one of the biggest names, if not

401
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:19,399
Speaker 6: the biggest name they got in the portal last spring,

402
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:21,679
Speaker 6: and he had a good year. That defensive line actually

403
00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:24,000
Speaker 6: played pretty well, the whole unit, but we were all

404
00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:25,920
Speaker 6: just kind of caught up in the bigger picture of

405
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:27,760
Speaker 6: Kentucky football and didn't really get to shin the light

406
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:28,720
Speaker 6: on him, and he probably deserved.

407
00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:32,040
Speaker 4: And then your guy Jagger, Yeah, he's looking like he's

408
00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:36,080
Speaker 4: gonna get picked somewhere in Jagger Burton from Lexington, somewhere

409
00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:38,680
Speaker 4: in the middle to late rounds and offensive line. He's

410
00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 4: ranked as one of the top eight centers in the draft.

411
00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:43,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's why they moved him to centate. They think

412
00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:46,040
Speaker 1: that was his future in the NFL. He's got long arms,

413
00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 1: he's smart, he can read the defenses and make the

414
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 1: cuts the right cuts that calls. So I'm really happy

415
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:51,280
Speaker 1: in proud of Jagger.

416
00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:54,440
Speaker 4: And then a dude that we should have gotten the ball.

417
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 4: Two more Kendrick Law there there. I guess he runs

418
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,719
Speaker 4: the ford today. Yeah, and they're saying that he and

419
00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:05,920
Speaker 4: another guy have a chance to contend for the fastest

420
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:09,800
Speaker 4: forty ever at the combine. Keedrick Law, Like we didn't.

421
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:11,760
Speaker 4: We never even got him the ball. And this is

422
00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:14,160
Speaker 4: a dude who might they're saying he may very well

423
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:16,040
Speaker 4: make NFL teams as a kick returner.

424
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,480
Speaker 6: Yeah, the last month of the year, they finally started

425
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:19,960
Speaker 6: going to him and it was working. You know, he's

426
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,320
Speaker 6: getting like nine catches a game there for a few weeks,

427
00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:24,000
Speaker 6: and it kind of like you're saying, it's like, well,

428
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:26,240
Speaker 6: where was that All season? He was big in the

429
00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:28,800
Speaker 6: road win at Auburn and maybe the game against Florida.

430
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:30,040
Speaker 6: I think he had a couple of big games.

431
00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:32,879
Speaker 4: So, you know, it looked like Kentucky was gonna have

432
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:36,160
Speaker 4: no guys drafted, and now they have maybe three, maybe

433
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:39,359
Speaker 4: even four who end up getting picked. And that's just

434
00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:41,640
Speaker 4: in some ways that's almost a little more frustrating. Why

435
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:42,639
Speaker 4: weren't we better shares?

436
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 3: You know, we heard before the season started we had

437
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:47,000
Speaker 3: top thirty talent. You know, if you go a player

438
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,439
Speaker 3: by player down the roster and to have the results

439
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,480
Speaker 3: that we had with that roster is very frustrated.

440
00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:53,560
Speaker 4: We haven't gotten to talk a lot a lot about

441
00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:55,760
Speaker 4: football in the last few weeks because of basketball. Let

442
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:59,040
Speaker 4: me ask you, folks, how many of you, by hand

443
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,840
Speaker 4: feel opt mystic about the will Stein era of football?

444
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:03,160
Speaker 2: Oh?

445
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:06,760
Speaker 4: Wow, I'm really glad to see that, because there hasn't

446
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:10,880
Speaker 4: been optimism around the football program. I feel it. I've

447
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:13,359
Speaker 4: asked we're hoping to get him on the show before

448
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:16,000
Speaker 4: the SEC tournament for a long sit down and we'll

449
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:18,000
Speaker 4: see if it ends up happening. I hope it does,

450
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:22,400
Speaker 4: but I am very optimistic. Ryan and I don't think

451
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 4: as people. There was all that information at the beginning,

452
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:28,199
Speaker 4: and it's been a little quiet spring practice starting. But

453
00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:30,359
Speaker 4: I really like what Will is building.

454
00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:32,800
Speaker 1: It's great to see the fans react this way because

455
00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:34,800
Speaker 1: we all enjoyed Mark Stoop. He was the best coach

456
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:36,680
Speaker 1: we've ever had, but it was time for a breath

457
00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:38,560
Speaker 1: of fresh air. I think will Stein has not only

458
00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:40,879
Speaker 1: brought that He's brought another level of energy that the

459
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:43,600
Speaker 1: fan base needed, as well as that locker room needed it.

460
00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 4: Spring practice starts when it's like, yeah, I think it's

461
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:51,480
Speaker 4: next week, and you'll learn a lot more about these guys.

462
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,399
Speaker 4: I'm interested to learn about our quarterback. I mean, Kenneth

463
00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 4: Minshi we know very very little about, but people around him.

464
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,439
Speaker 4: I mean I had a friend Shanon, who's a booster

465
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,520
Speaker 4: at Notre Dame, say to me, you guys are going

466
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 4: to love that kid, like love it. He said, he

467
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:10,200
Speaker 4: thinks he's better than anybody we've had in the last

468
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:11,760
Speaker 4: decade besides Will Levis.

469
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:13,320
Speaker 6: That's high praise right there.

470
00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:14,919
Speaker 4: I mean that' high praise. We'll see if it ends

471
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:15,359
Speaker 4: up having.

472
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:17,199
Speaker 5: Coming for somebody who knows the player and just seeing him.

473
00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 4: That's exactly right. Who's up next, Adam, Adam? Go ahead, Adam, Hey,

474
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:24,359
Speaker 4: what's up?

475
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:28,160
Speaker 9: Shout out to Hobsins County. I'm right next door in

476
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:32,760
Speaker 9: Caldwell County. Travis Ford maybe my favorite player of all time.

477
00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:34,640
Speaker 9: That was right in my will house. I was probably

478
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:36,880
Speaker 9: seven or eight years old with that ninety three team

479
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:40,600
Speaker 9: with Nashburn, that's one of my favorite teams of all time.

480
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:44,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I mean it was a great team. What

481
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:44,960
Speaker 4: else you got?

482
00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:47,879
Speaker 7: I don't know.

483
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:51,800
Speaker 9: If you heard Aaron Torres podcast, he was talking about

484
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,240
Speaker 9: the same thing that you mentioned about talking about the

485
00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:58,520
Speaker 9: GM and not just hiring a Kentucky alum just to

486
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:01,560
Speaker 9: hire Kentucky alum. He said, you know, do something that

487
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:04,119
Speaker 9: Mike Duke did and go get somebody from Nike that

488
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:06,680
Speaker 9: knows these agents day in and day out.

489
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:10,800
Speaker 4: Well, that to me is the thing, and I appreciate

490
00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:16,679
Speaker 4: the call. I trust Mark Pope to know Drew the

491
00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:19,679
Speaker 4: to know the players he wants. I don't think he

492
00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:21,439
Speaker 4: did the best job this year, but he did a

493
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:23,800
Speaker 4: pretty good job his first year. I think he knows

494
00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,239
Speaker 4: the players he wants. I trust Mark Pope to know

495
00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:29,320
Speaker 4: who's good who's not. But a lot of recruiting now

496
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,919
Speaker 4: is talking to agents. He clearly is not good at that.

497
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,399
Speaker 4: Find somebody who can do that, and it probably is

498
00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:40,119
Speaker 4: somebody who worked at Nike, you know whatever. But what

499
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:41,720
Speaker 4: you don't want to do is just go hire a

500
00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:43,560
Speaker 4: guy that you happen to play with. Yeah.

501
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:45,440
Speaker 6: Well, even in his joking yesterday when he said I

502
00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:47,359
Speaker 6: want somebody to go get me the best players for free,

503
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:49,640
Speaker 6: he said a lot of my former teammates and people

504
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:51,240
Speaker 6: around here already hitting me up for it, and he

505
00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 6: downplays like I can't trust them, And that at least

506
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:54,840
Speaker 6: gave me a little comfort, because it's not just going

507
00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:56,240
Speaker 6: to hand it off to someone that was on the

508
00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:56,960
Speaker 6: ninety sixteen.

509
00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:59,920
Speaker 4: Yeah. I mean, I I understand the desire for coming,

510
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:01,720
Speaker 4: but I think he probably needs to go out of

511
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:02,480
Speaker 4: his comfort zone.

512
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:05,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's much of a business higher as much as

513
00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:06,720
Speaker 1: it is a basketball hire these days.

514
00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 4: That's exactly right. All right, when we come back, we're

543
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:39,640
Speaker 4: I mean, not everybody, can you know? These people need

544
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:40,320
Speaker 4: to know what to do.

545
00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:42,480
Speaker 6: Yeah, we make sure the ball's regulation all.

00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:50,320

549
00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:54,800
Speaker 4: in your face. Billy, our sports. Everybody give Billy our sports.

564
00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:41,760
Speaker 5: It was his third shot.

565
00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:43,680
Speaker 2: You know, Shannon took one and hit it. He take

566
00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:44,640
Speaker 2: took one shot.

567
00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:47,480
Speaker 4: I'll tell you what. We can't give that as the one.

568
00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:50,520
Speaker 4: Mario there, let's let Mario Mario, I.

569
00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:52,240
Speaker 3: Give us your phone phone off where the ball the

570
00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:54,480
Speaker 3: balls underneath to take was making this he's a hooper.

571
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:57,800
Speaker 4: Now for people we don't know, Mario's brother played basketball

572
00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:02,040
Speaker 4: at Morehead State. Was a good Mario Playton High School?

573
00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:04,040
Speaker 4: You played with it? What's the guy's name from Florida?

574
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:09,480
Speaker 4: Played with Colin Castle Sharp, played with Hey Sharp. Here

575
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:13,359
Speaker 4: we go, Let's give it to him. Let's go Mario.

576
00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:14,640
Speaker 4: At least hit the backboard.

577
00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:18,679
Speaker 2: Get the rhythm, Get the rhythm, get the rhythm. Oh

578
00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 2: wait a minute, all right, can nobody hit the round

579
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:22,800
Speaker 2: but me?

580
00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:23,200
Speaker 7: So?

581
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:28,000
Speaker 4: Oh for two? Oh for two? Zero rim hits. Not

582
00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:31,360
Speaker 4: a great start, but I feel like anyone at matt

583
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:35,520
Speaker 4: here in Madisonville will do better. No, no, we're not

584
00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:37,520
Speaker 4: doing in the crowd yet because the crowd is for

585
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:40,000
Speaker 4: the money. So we're gonna hang on for for just

586
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:43,359
Speaker 4: a second. Eight five, nine to eighth, twenty eighty seven.

587
00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:47,000
Speaker 4: Let's talk about one thing that is was is in

588
00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:52,320
Speaker 4: the news about broadcasting, all right, so college sport. Everybody

589
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:54,840
Speaker 4: knows that there needs to be regulations in college sports.

590
00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:58,560
Speaker 4: Donald Trump announced yesterday he's gonna have a round table

591
00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:01,800
Speaker 4: to talk about college sports. He's invited a list of

592
00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:05,600
Speaker 4: people that have nothing to do with college sports. So

593
00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:07,800
Speaker 4: I don't think it's going to be very productive. However,

594
00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:10,960
Speaker 4: there is something going on that I do think is important,

595
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:13,680
Speaker 4: which is there's a fight right now drew between the

596
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:18,360
Speaker 4: commissioners of the SEC and the Big Ten and everyone

597
00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:21,560
Speaker 4: else in college sports. I'll give you the quick version

598
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:25,600
Speaker 4: of it right now. The way you do television, each

599
00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:30,000
Speaker 4: conference negotiates their own deal, right, So the SECS is

600
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:34,760
Speaker 4: with ESPN, That's why our games are on ESPN, SEC Network, etc.

601
00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:39,680
Speaker 4: Like the Big Ten their deal is with Fox and CBS,

602
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:42,200
Speaker 4: et cetera. So each conference does it their own way.

603
00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:45,439
Speaker 4: Well what does that end up doing? The conferences that

604
00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:49,960
Speaker 4: are the most powerful, they get more money. Right, So

605
00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:51,920
Speaker 4: part of why the SEC and the Big Ten are

606
00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:54,959
Speaker 4: dominating sports. We get a lot more money on our

607
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:58,639
Speaker 4: TV deals than the ACC and the Big twelve. Kentucky gets,

608
00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:02,680
Speaker 4: like use Louisville as an example, Kentucky gets twice as

609
00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:06,480
Speaker 4: much money as Louisville does from their TV deal. Well,

610
00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:08,760
Speaker 4: you guys, remember when you were watching college football this

611
00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:11,600
Speaker 4: year a guy would get on television and go, we

612
00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:14,159
Speaker 4: need to save college sports. And he'd be standing in

613
00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:16,320
Speaker 4: front of a truck and he'd be like, let's do

614
00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:18,480
Speaker 4: the Save the College Sports Act.

615
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:20,520
Speaker 2: Remember that I definitely remember that.

616
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:24,760
Speaker 4: His name's Cody Campbell. Well, here's what he wants. He

617
00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:28,720
Speaker 4: wants all the conferences to come together, pull their TV

618
00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:32,960
Speaker 4: rights and sell them together. He says, we'll make more

619
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:39,400
Speaker 4: money if we do that. Well sort of the conferences

620
00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:42,640
Speaker 4: like the ACC and the Big twelve will make more money,

621
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:45,680
Speaker 4: but SEC and Big ten will not. Now what was

622
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:48,680
Speaker 4: interesting is Mitch Barnhart, if you remember, agreed with him,

623
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:51,040
Speaker 4: and I think I told you on this show at

624
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 4: the time, I was like, I'm kind of surprised Mitch

625
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:56,840
Speaker 4: Barnhart has that position. Well, yesterday the SEC and the

626
00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:59,720
Speaker 4: Big ten came out and said they disagree with him,

627
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:03,120
Speaker 4: do not want to pull the rights. The reason that's

628
00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:06,520
Speaker 4: important is as we're trying to get legislation to regulate

629
00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:10,160
Speaker 4: it now Drew, the major conferences are not even agreeing

630
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:12,200
Speaker 4: with each other, and I think that is going to

631
00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:14,800
Speaker 4: make it much much harder to get the stuff passed.

632
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:17,680
Speaker 6: Yeah, and the SEC and Big ten have kind of

633
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:19,960
Speaker 6: been I'm not operating on their own, but you know

634
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:22,640
Speaker 6: it's kind of been rumored. Yeah, they're eventually breaking off

635
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:26,160
Speaker 6: and trying to work like that, and as each season passes,

636
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:27,880
Speaker 6: they're getting bigger and bigger, and it's clear they're the

637
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:31,040
Speaker 6: two big dogs. Did you say, Mitch like win against

638
00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:31,600
Speaker 6: the conference?

639
00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:36,240
Speaker 4: Shock early to me? When he initially made his statement,

640
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:39,680
Speaker 4: he said he agreed with that guy. I think now

641
00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:41,400
Speaker 4: I could be wrong, but I think he did. And

642
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:44,440
Speaker 4: I was like, that's odd to me, because what that

643
00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:47,840
Speaker 4: guy wants will hurt schools like Kentucky. I would think.

644
00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:50,760
Speaker 4: Now the conference has come out and said they disagree

645
00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:53,080
Speaker 4: with him, so we'll see what happens. My point of

646
00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:55,840
Speaker 4: all that is just to say, I feel like Ryan,

647
00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 4: we're even farther away from this stuff than we were

648
00:29:58,920 --> 00:29:59,720
Speaker 4: a few months ago.

649
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,640
Speaker 1: You know, SEC football generates a lot of money, and

650
00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:04,480
Speaker 1: you don't want to give you that out to everybody else.

651
00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:06,560
Speaker 1: You'd like to keep that for yourself within your conference.

652
00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:08,040
Speaker 4: Well, the question is do you want to share that

653
00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:10,600
Speaker 4: money shanting with Louisville or not? No?

654
00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:12,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, the answer is always no.

655
00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:18,400
Speaker 4: I think the answer for Kentucky is no. Who's up next, Steven, Steven?

656
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:19,240
Speaker 4: Go ahead, Steven?

657
00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:26,200
Speaker 10: Hey, Yeah, sorry calling a little bit late here. I

658
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:28,680
Speaker 10: kind of wanted to get your all Steel. I know

659
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 10: Pope's kind of shown some reticence on Silling this GM position.

660
00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:36,200
Speaker 10: I want to know. I know that kind of varies

661
00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:38,320
Speaker 10: with the programs that the capacity and.

662
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:38,880
Speaker 7: Which they hunt.

663
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:42,720
Speaker 10: Gert and I didn't know for Kentucky what you thought

664
00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:47,880
Speaker 10: the best capacity would be the kind of the fixed

665
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:50,520
Speaker 10: issues going for whether it's Pope connecting with the players,

666
00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:53,960
Speaker 10: development retention, or what it may be. Is that someone

667
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:57,960
Speaker 10: that's more grass roots on the high school scene, coming

668
00:30:58,000 --> 00:30:59,200
Speaker 10: from an NBA background.

669
00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:03,360
Speaker 4: You you need they. I appreciate the call. I've said

670
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:05,520
Speaker 4: this a few times. You just need a business person

671
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:12,480
Speaker 4: who knows the economics of basketball, who knows these younger people,

672
00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:15,680
Speaker 4: who knows the agents. You just need. You need somebody

673
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:18,960
Speaker 4: honestly completely different than what we have right now. We're

674
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:21,880
Speaker 4: good with the high school guys, but the problem is

675
00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:24,160
Speaker 4: not getting the high school guys to like us, Ryan,

676
00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:26,800
Speaker 4: it's getting them to sign on the dotted line, which

677
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:28,040
Speaker 4: is why we need a business person.

678
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:29,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, it doesn't need necessarily need to be a UK

679
00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:31,800
Speaker 1: person at all. Duke went out and hired somebody from Nike.

680
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:34,480
Speaker 1: That wasn't no Duke person. They let the right what No, No,

681
00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:36,120
Speaker 1: it wasn't. There wasn't no Duke person.

682
00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:39,120
Speaker 6: The word emotional has come up about Pope a couple

683
00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:42,240
Speaker 6: times from like the agent and recruiting side, and it

684
00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:44,560
Speaker 6: seems to be that's what's holding them back because at

685
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:45,800
Speaker 6: the end of the day, I mean, we love the

686
00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:48,560
Speaker 6: being emotional about it. These kids are like, how much

687
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:51,840
Speaker 6: am I getting? How many minutes am I playing? Congratulations?

688

772
00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:02,279
Speaker 4: of we during the break sort of tossed the ball.

773
00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:04,439
Speaker 4: We realized we think Sid might need to go one

774
00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:07,640
Speaker 4: handed to get it all the way there. Uh so

775
00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:10,280
Speaker 4: Mario's gonna do a one handed just to give Sid.

776
00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:13,440
Speaker 4: You're gonna need to throw it more than you think.

777
00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:16,680
Speaker 4: I'll just say that, So Mario, let's try one handed.

00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:25,880
Speaker 4: Now, Mario, your foot was on the line there, so

781
00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:27,759
Speaker 4: that be careful, said, you don't want to go the

782
00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:29,080
Speaker 4: foot on the line, ain't, Sid?

783
00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:30,399
Speaker 2: Come on, Sid, here we go.

784
00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:32,200
Speaker 4: I really want him to hit this. I've known in

785
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:34,680
Speaker 4: my whole life. I believe in him ten thousand dollars.

786
00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:36,440
Speaker 4: Hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on,

787
00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:38,239
Speaker 4: hang on. Are your ice and the kicker? Let me

788
00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:42,440
Speaker 4: set it up. Drew went to school with Sid's kid, Jeremy.

789
00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:47,160
Speaker 4: Sid's wife's name is what Donna? Donna? She's filming it.

790
00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:48,600
Speaker 4: She blew a kiss.

791
00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:48,879
Speaker 2: Sid.

792
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:53,520
Speaker 4: You were her second choice. But that's okay. We learned

793
00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:56,640
Speaker 4: with Tyron Stokes second choice can still work after all

794
00:36:56,680 --> 00:37:05,480
Speaker 4: these years. Sid. Good luck. Let's go Madisonville on Sid, Sid? Sid?

795
00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:12,560
Speaker 4: Sid Si. First of all, Sid, hand on the rocket.

796
00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:17,120
Speaker 4: My goodness, Sid, that was a canon. You have the

797
00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:20,400
Speaker 4: go in front of us, not the other course. Roger Clemens.

798
00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:24,319
Speaker 4: I'll tell you what, Sid. I told you to throw

799
00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:27,200
Speaker 4: it hard. Because of that, you may have thrown it

800
00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:29,000
Speaker 4: a little too of it. He got in his head.

801
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:35,560
Speaker 4: I'm gonna just do a Matt Jones from me personally

802
00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:39,440
Speaker 4: if you make it five thousand dollars.

803
00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:40,920
Speaker 2: From oh, oh, my goodness, Wow.

804
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:45,320
Speaker 4: Okay, wow. All right, So now hang on, Sid, because

805
00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:50,279
Speaker 4: I feel personal responsibility for the fact that you threw

806
00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:54,640
Speaker 4: it so far. So Sid, I can't do ten City

807
00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:57,760
Speaker 4: of Madison, this fine factory has a lot more going

808
00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:02,080
Speaker 4: than I do, apparently, but I'll go five thousand for

809
00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:07,960
Speaker 4: Matthew Harper Jones. Everybody, come on, you can do it, Sid,

810
00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:13,960
Speaker 4: you can do it. Here we go, Oh, no, good distance.

811
00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:24,200
Speaker 4: Everybody gets in a big round. Yeah, just a bit outside. Nice. Well.

812
00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:26,440
Speaker 4: I had mixed emotions as to whether I wanted him

813
00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:29,160
Speaker 4: to make this. Yeah, exactly. Can I shoot one for

814
00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:33,000
Speaker 4: your five? This is not a transferred halready hit one?

815
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:33,600
Speaker 4: Where's my five?

816
00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:33,759
Speaker 2: Though?

817
00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:37,960
Speaker 4: It is not transferable? All right? Kentucky Vanderbilt play tomorrow

818
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:42,080
Speaker 4: the Cats. If they win, they're right now on ESPN

819
00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:45,480
Speaker 4: listed as a seventh seed. On CBS, they're listed as

820
00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:48,320
Speaker 4: a sixth seed. I think if they win this game,

821
00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:51,560
Speaker 4: they have a chance to maybe get to a six potentially,

822
00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:53,839
Speaker 4: even if you bit beat Texas A and m start

823
00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:56,960
Speaker 4: knocking on the door of a five. If you win tomorrow,

824
00:38:57,320 --> 00:38:59,879
Speaker 4: you almost certainly will not have to play on wins

825
00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:03,200
Speaker 4: day in the SEC tournament. So there's a lot going on.

826
00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:06,080
Speaker 4: We will start with you, Shannon, what do you think

827
00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:06,880
Speaker 4: is gonna happen now?

828
00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:07,680
Speaker 6: Your favorite team?

829
00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:10,040
Speaker 5: This is? This is always a tough one for me.

830
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:13,840
Speaker 3: I think though Kentucky is going to get more points

831
00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:16,880
Speaker 3: in the paint this game, which isn't saying much compared

832
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:18,560
Speaker 3: to the last game, but I think moreno is gonna

833
00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:21,719
Speaker 3: be the MVP. Kentucky wins at seventy seven seventy three

834
00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:23,759
Speaker 3: Pigs Kentucky.

835
00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:27,560
Speaker 6: Hellow, all right, Drew, gotta get it done. I hope

836
00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:29,520
Speaker 6: they realize that in the locker room this is a

837
00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:32,239
Speaker 6: big one. I say they finished strong. I say they

838
00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:35,800
Speaker 6: win not comfortably, but uh, they'll be fine winning about

839
00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:40,000
Speaker 6: seven points. We'll call it eighty four seventy seven. My

840
00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:42,239
Speaker 6: MVP is Yellovich.

841
00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:45,240
Speaker 4: All right? Hang on just second, crack listen, team members

842
00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:49,319
Speaker 4: from Madisonville. Where you going? Just because you didn't win

843
00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:52,240
Speaker 4: the money? You can't, you can't, you can't. We still

844
00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:54,960
Speaker 4: have we still have my man here to say something.

845
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:57,719
Speaker 4: But before we get to him, Kentucky. By the way,

846
00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:00,520
Speaker 4: game starts at two o'clock. Pregame show was on at

847
00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:03,160
Speaker 4: eleven thirty. Come watch the game at the bar. We

848
00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:05,520
Speaker 4: will be doing the pregame show live from KS Bar.

849
00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:08,160
Speaker 4: So if you're going, you can, you can park at

850
00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:11,399
Speaker 4: the bar, eat there at before or after. If we win,

851
00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:14,400
Speaker 4: I'm gonna do the postgame show there after. Oh nice,

852
00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:18,400
Speaker 4: if we win, So just keep that in mind. Starts

853
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:22,000
Speaker 4: show starts eleven thirty. Restaurant opens at eleven. I like

854
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:24,800
Speaker 4: Kentucky's chances tomorrow. I do think they're gonna rally. I

855
00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:27,239
Speaker 4: think it's gonna be a special crowd in there. It's

856
00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:30,160
Speaker 4: with the game being at two o'clock. I'm gonna say

857
00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:34,080
Speaker 4: Kentucky gets the victory. I'm gonna go seventy eight, seventy four,

858
00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:37,560
Speaker 4: Kentucky gets the win. Now, mister Lemon, I want you

859
00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:40,319
Speaker 4: to stand up there. It is time for Ryan Lemon

860

Speaker 4: to do his first basketball pep talk through and nearly

861
00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:52,080
Speaker 4: disconnected me already, seriously nearly all right, Ryan, you have Ryan,

862
00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:54,840

865
00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:09,040
Speaker 1: We're playing like not like fighting, We're playing like lovers.

866
00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:13,080
Speaker 1: Oh no, I'm tired of everybody's saying we're playing like

867
00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:15,480
Speaker 1: pound chick, pound.

868
00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:18,160
Speaker 4: It's not being creepy. It's time to man up. I mean,

869
00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:20,719
Speaker 4: their point guard is as small as I am. They're

870
00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:21,480
Speaker 4: number one.

871
00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:24,120
