Speaker 2: a rock star down at SEC Media Days all day.

12
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:41,239
Speaker 2: So ladies and gentlemen, big round of applause for our

13
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:43,240
Speaker 2: super guest host today, aless Alag.

14
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:47,479
Speaker 3: Thank you guys for having me. I'm so excited.

15
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:49,879
Speaker 4: I was telling all the Kentucky folks yesterday that I

16
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 4: was going to be doing this today and I just

17
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,680
Speaker 4: was feeling the excitement building, especially fresh off of Mark

18
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 4: Sotop's closing things out for us in Dallas.

19
00:00:57,960 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 3: So thank you guys for having me. I can't wait

20
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:00,720
Speaker 3: to be here today.

21
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:02,360
Speaker 5: Well I'm gonna say, this is a little weird. I

22
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 5: spent the whole week watching you on Dallas. I mean,

23
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 5: my TV was just on SEC network from Monday morning

24
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,600
Speaker 5: until stoops yesterday. So it's a little bizarre hearing you

25
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 5: on KSR after I spent the week with you and

26
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:14,520
Speaker 5: the whole SEC crew.

27
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 4: It's even more bizarre to me, honestly, after everyone's travel

28
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 4: back from Dallas last night, and once I got on

29
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 4: Twitter when we landed in Charlotte and then proceeded to

30
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:27,160
Speaker 4: sit on the tarmac for two and a half hours

31
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 4: waiting for a gate here in Charlotte, I'm scrolling through

32
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:33,520
Speaker 4: so many other media members who were in Dallas saying

33
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 4: that the same thing happened to them.

34
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:37,959
Speaker 3: And then now the world has just stopped.

35
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 4: Yes Microsoft thing this morning, and now I'm like thinking

36
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:43,640
Speaker 4: to myself, yesterday I thought, well, maybe I should just

37
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 4: stay for another night and fly back on Friday morning.

38
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 4: Maybe it'll be easier not dealing with the weather. I've

39
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 4: never been so glad that I did not do that,

40
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:53,640
Speaker 4: because Dallas was a week as it.

41
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:55,520
Speaker 3: Always is, and it ended with a bang. But we

42
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 3: made it. We're here.

43
00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you haven't heard, half the world is shut

44
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 2: down with this Microsoft update had a glitch in it,

45
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 2: and hospitals and airlines.

46
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 6: You're lucky you.

47
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 2: Got out when you did, because there are flights stranded

48
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 2: across the world.

49
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 4: Yes, my fiance is in Cincinnati right now and he's

50
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 4: trying to get back to Charlotte. And he said they

51
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 4: actually boarded the plane and then they said, well, we're

52
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:18,400
Speaker 4: one of the few flights that actually can make it

53
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 4: and is still scheduled on time. But now they're not

54
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 4: on time because there's scheduled arrival times in Charlotte or something,

55
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,080
Speaker 4: so they're spacing them all out. So now he's going

56
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 4: to be sitting on the plane for the next two hours.

57
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:32,239
Speaker 3: It's crazy, it's great.

58
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 4: I'm not smart enough to understand how any of this

59
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 4: is possible. I didn't think that airlines and banks and

60
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:40,040
Speaker 4: sports center which apparently can't go on the air either

61
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 4: this morning, because wow, really video or graphics or anything,

62
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,080
Speaker 4: because it's all I don't know in a cloud?

63
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,639
Speaker 3: Is this technology telling us we're too reliant on them?

64
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:52,839
Speaker 4: That's my hot take on this Friday where the world

65
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 4: is stopping because Microsoft has a glitch.

66
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 3: I don't know anything.

67
00:02:58,120 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 6: We KSR.

68
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 5: We sent three people to Dallas, but because we're very cheap,

69
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 5: we sent them by car. It's like a seventeen hour drive.

70
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:07,800
Speaker 5: So this morning on their way back, I'm seeing all

71
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,799
Speaker 5: this airport news and I'm thinking, look, guys, congratulations, you're

72
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:12,920
Speaker 5: not stuck in an airport. You're just somewhere in Arkansas

73
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 5: right now, and you'll be home a little to later today.

74
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 4: We were just looking out for you. Actually, when we

75
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:20,240
Speaker 4: said that you needed to drive to Dallas and not

76
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 4: fly to Dallas. That's really what you guys are saying

77
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:23,959
Speaker 4: to the KSR phone.

78
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:27,919
Speaker 2: Did you see the one big, tall, bald, goofy white

79
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,240
Speaker 2: guy walk around. He's blue cowboy hat. That's our own

80
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 2: Nick Rouse. We're so proud of him. Down in SEC

81
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 2: media days.

82
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:37,280
Speaker 4: It's so funny, Like I think, every time we get

83
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 4: to SEC media week and you see everyone that you're

84
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 4: interacting with on social media or you're seeing on the

85
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 4: sidelines of various games, various seasons, it's always just so

86
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 4: crazy to me that we're all in one room and

87
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 4: we pass each other constantly, and we're all so tired,

88
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,680
Speaker 4: and we've all been talking for so long that sometimes

89
00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 4: we see each other and we go, I know you,

90
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 4: but it's not coming to me right this second, of

91
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 4: like where I know you from, because you just meet

92
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 4: new people every single year, and it's funny to watch

93
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 4: that progression to the end of the week and by

94
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 4: the time you get to Thursday and we're all walking

95
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 4: around like absolute zombies. Even Coach Stoops, I think, at

96
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:18,599
Speaker 4: one point during his podium session yesterday, said hey, thanks

97
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 4: to everyone for sticking around. I know, I'm the sixteenth

98
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:24,839
Speaker 4: coach who's been here. Everybody's just drooping a little bit more.

99
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 4: But no, it's such a fun week and I'm glad

100
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,679
Speaker 4: that it, Like I said, it ended with Kentucky. Great

101
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 4: timing for my show with you guys today to be

102
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,880
Speaker 4: able to talk about Kentucky very fresh off of yesterday.

103
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 5: Let's hear a little about yesterday. I was watching just

104
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:42,359
Speaker 5: SEC Network, but I couldn't see the ballroom. What was

105
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 5: the crowd actually like for Stoops?

106
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 6: Was it just a.

107
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,719
Speaker 5: Handful of people out there? Did most people pack up

108
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 5: and leave or did everyone or a good crowd hang

109
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 5: around till the end? For him?

110
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:52,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, No, I felt like it was a pretty good crowd.

111
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,400
Speaker 4: I mean, it was pretty average for what you see

112
00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:58,359
Speaker 4: across I think the course of the week. Now, the

113
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,040
Speaker 4: room definitely gets a little bit more full when it's

114
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,479
Speaker 4: Kaylein de Borr, when it's Coach Sark and when there's

115
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 4: a lot of storyline questions to ask that have a

116
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,600
Speaker 4: lot of national relevance. And that's not to say Kentucky

117
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 4: doesn't have national relevance, but I will sit here and

118
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:16,039
Speaker 4: say that after media days, once again, nobody's talking about

119
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,840
Speaker 4: Kentucky outside people who are really paying attention to this

120
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 4: roster and fans of the program. I feel like they're

121
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 4: always unfairly not talked about a lot. But Coach Oops

122
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,839
Speaker 4: always seems cool with that right, let us fly under

123
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 4: the radar a little bit, certainly after.

124
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 3: How the last couple of seasons have gone.

125
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:33,359
Speaker 4: But no, he had a pretty good crowd and I

126
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:36,039
Speaker 4: always enjoy listening to him. I know, I don't know

127
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 4: if we're not supposed to have favorites, if we are

128
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,960
Speaker 4: allowed to have favorites, but yeah, I've heard before Coach

129
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 4: Oops is one of my favorites to talk. He's at

130
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 4: the top of the list when it comes to not

131
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 4: only coaches that you enjoy interviewing because you know they're

132
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 4: going to give you a straight answer. You know, they're

133
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:53,159
Speaker 4: going to be honest, and you know that they're not

134
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:55,040
Speaker 4: going to be afraid to have some fun if that's

135
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 4: what the moment calls for. But also off camera, I

136
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,719
Speaker 4: always just enjoy having conversations with him and getting to

137
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:02,280
Speaker 4: know him as a human because.

138
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,400
Speaker 3: He's so where his feet are and he's happy to

139
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:08,719
Speaker 3: talk to people just human to human, not football related.

140
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 4: So I didn't get to talk to him as much

141
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:14,599
Speaker 4: as I typically like to during that media week yesterday.

142
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:16,839
Speaker 4: We were both kind of going in different directions and

143
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 4: then peeling out to the airport for me before he

144
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 4: was kind of done making his rounds.

145
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:23,039
Speaker 3: But I always enjoy hearing from him, and.

146
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,839
Speaker 4: I thought I thought he dropped a lot of great

147
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 4: knowledge yesterday on this twenty twenty four team that I'm

148
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:29,919
Speaker 4: excited to get into with.

149
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:33,040
Speaker 2: Y'all, Well, you kind of said one thing we've all

150
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 2: said for years. He's at his best when he's got

151
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 2: a chip on his shoulder, when you disrespect him or

152
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 2: you're you doubt him, that's when he's at his best.

153
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 2: This year, though, I think these if he's got maybe

154
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:46,240
Speaker 2: one of his best teams he's had, but.

155
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:48,160
Speaker 6: Then the schedule is tougher, so did he What did

156
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:48,920
Speaker 6: he say about all that?

157
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 4: You know, it's it's interesting because you look at the

158
00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:57,680
Speaker 4: schedule standpoint and having SEC games so early on in

159
00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,160
Speaker 4: Kentucky's schedule. They're obviously not the only one because they're

160
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:01,000
Speaker 4: playing South Carolina.

161
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 3: Really, they're playing Georgia early.

162
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 4: And by the way, you're gonna give me grief, okay

163
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:07,240
Speaker 4: for being a game cock.

164
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:09,120
Speaker 3: I'm very much aware.

165
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 4: Hey, but it's got to count for something that I'm

166
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 4: doing a show with Randall Cobb. Now, true, this has

167
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 4: to count for something, right, we got on the network.

168
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:18,800
Speaker 3: He's getting in.

169
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:23,280
Speaker 4: But no, he he obviously addressed that as far as

170
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:26,440
Speaker 4: just the general toughness of the SEC year in and

171
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 4: year out, but it sounds like he really likes this

172
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:32,520
Speaker 4: group that he has this year. He talked a little

173
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 4: bit about Brock Vandergriff, which obviously is kind of the

174
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:38,760
Speaker 4: biggest question, But when it came to his recruiting and

175
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 4: some of the flashes that you've seen from him in

176
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,880
Speaker 4: the minimal amount of time that he's played in college,

177
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 4: he has a lot of potential and coach Stuops has

178
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,840
Speaker 4: done a really good job of hitting on potential out

179
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 4: of the portal or even hitting on proven players out

180
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:54,240
Speaker 4: of the portal and having success with them at Kentucky.

181
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 4: So I think Kentucky's in a perfect place right now.

182
00:07:57,960 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 4: We know they have a lot of talent. We know

183
00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:01,960
Speaker 4: they we have a lot of guys who are returning

184
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 4: and just portal additions that could be game breakers for

185
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 4: them this year. Yet they're coming off of two seasons

186
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 4: that maybe we're a bit of an underperformance compared to what.

187
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:12,760
Speaker 3: We thought they would be.

188
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:15,600
Speaker 4: Maybe they're in a perfect position to shock some people,

189
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 4: certainly early in the season. If you're a program like

190
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 4: Kentucky that's not getting the respect that you feel like

191
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 4: you deserve, why not take on a Georgia within the

192
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:27,640
Speaker 4: first three weeks of the season when you could still

193
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 4: be able to maybe shock somebody, because everybody knows you're

194
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:33,080
Speaker 4: still putting things together. Within the first couple of weeks,

195
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:36,079
Speaker 4: there's room for error. We talked about it at nauseum

196
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 4: last year with Jalen Milroe in Alabama in that Texas

197
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 4: game and then getting benched and I'm trying to figure

198
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:44,080
Speaker 4: everything out. They're still moving pieces early in the season.

199
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:47,559
Speaker 4: Maybe it'll be a perfect opportunity for Kentucky to sneak

200
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:48,320
Speaker 4: up on the dogs.

201
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:51,920
Speaker 5: One piece of news from Stoops yesterday that we knew

202
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 5: he would have to address. He got the Texas A

203
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:55,839
Speaker 5: and M question, So I w'll just go ahead and

204
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 5: read that quote to our listeners since it was brief

205
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:02,320
Speaker 5: sued pretty aggressively by them, and we'll just leave it

206
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,320
Speaker 5: at that out of respect for everybody involved. There's a

207
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:06,960
Speaker 5: lot of people over the years and a lot of

208
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 5: interactions between people, but it was very brief. I was pursued.

209
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 5: I had a job to do, so I thought it

210
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 5: seemed like the online reaction that was a little mixed,

211
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:18,320
Speaker 5: but you knew it was coming. He hadn't said anything

212
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 5: yet about it, even though it was back in November.

213
00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:22,160
Speaker 5: I thought he kind of did a good job of

214
00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 5: addressing it, getting on out of the way. Alyssa, you

215
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 5: were there, maybe you want to comment on stoops, but

216
00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:28,599
Speaker 5: just in general, what's it like when you have to

217
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:31,199
Speaker 5: ask that question about a coach you might have been

218
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,199
Speaker 5: looking elsewhere and then ends ups having to stay home.

219
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:37,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, it's funny because I went from being

220
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,319
Speaker 4: in local media for about eight years to this job,

221
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,439
Speaker 4: and in this job, we're not at as many press

222
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 4: conferences We're not at as many of those, you know,

223
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 4: yearly gatherings with coaches regionally when stories like this happened.

224
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 4: So I went from being in locker rooms and kind

225
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:55,959
Speaker 4: of being tasked with asking those questions, with those kinds

226
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:59,719
Speaker 4: of timing when stories like this came out to being

227
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,720
Speaker 4: at a ESPN and SEC network and kind of watching

228
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,680
Speaker 4: it from afar and like hoping someone else will ask,

229
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,400
Speaker 4: but also knowing that sometimes that doesn't go really well

230
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:09,320
Speaker 4: for that reporter. Right.

231
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:11,800
Speaker 3: We just saw it at the College World Series with.

232
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:15,320
Speaker 4: Coach Slass after losing to Tennessee and what that looked

233
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:18,120
Speaker 4: like with the Texas job and how that went, and

234
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:21,400
Speaker 4: then how it ended up like just an uncomfortable situation

235
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 4: if it's not handled the right way. To your point

236
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:27,719
Speaker 4: about what Coach Stoop said, I don't think you can

237
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:30,320
Speaker 4: answer that question any better. I'll kind of add on

238
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,560
Speaker 4: to that though, And I know Kentucky fans are going

239
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:34,120
Speaker 4: to sit here and go a hole hole. Hold on

240
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 4: a second. I'm thrilled he's at Kentucky. Still, I'm thrilled

241
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:39,400
Speaker 4: he's staying at staying at Kentucky, and he talked about

242
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 4: it yesterday.

243
00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:43,839
Speaker 3: There's only nineteen other head coaches in the history of

244
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:46,320
Speaker 3: the SEC who have been at their respective schools as

245
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:49,520
Speaker 3: long as Coach Stoops has, So that is an achievement

246
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 3: in and of itself. But what I didn't understand at

247
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:56,120
Speaker 3: the time was just the social media reaction to Coach

248
00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:59,320
Speaker 3: Stoops potentially being the next head coach at Texas A

249
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:01,240
Speaker 3: and M before all got shut down and squashed. I

250
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:02,920
Speaker 3: was like, what am I missing?

251
00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:04,680
Speaker 4: Because I feel like a lot of programs would be

252
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,880
Speaker 4: really lucky to have Mark Stoops as their head coach,

253
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:11,000
Speaker 4: given the success that he's had, certainly as of late

254
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:13,360
Speaker 4: at Kentucky. And again, I know Kentucky fans are sitting

255
00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:15,600
Speaker 4: here going whoa, whoa, whoa. We didn't want our guy

256
00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 4: to get snatched. I am right there with you. I

257
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 4: would have been a little bit sad to see him

258
00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 4: leave Kentucky. I just didn't really understand this pushback on

259
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 4: this is gonna be a terrible hire. I'm sitting here

260
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:30,560
Speaker 4: scratching my head, going where are we getting this from?

261
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:30,720
Speaker 6: Now.

262
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:33,200
Speaker 4: That's not to say that I'm not excited about coach Elco,

263
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:35,840
Speaker 4: and I do end up thinking that both parties made

264
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:38,239
Speaker 4: a great decision with Coach Oops.

265
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:40,000
Speaker 3: Saying where he's at and coach Elco coming in.

266
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:42,760
Speaker 4: But that was a head scratcher for me just scrolling

267
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 4: through social media and observing timelines at the time with

268
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,400
Speaker 4: people outside of Lexington's reaction to that one.

269
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:52,280
Speaker 5: Shannon, the dude, our producer, will be chiming in here

270
00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 5: with us. He's very close to the Texas A and

271
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 5: M A D. So I wanted to get his thoughts

272
00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 5: on that too before we moved on.

273
00:11:57,720 --> 00:11:59,079
Speaker 6: What did you catch that? What do you want me

274
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 6: to say about him? What was his naming in? Shannon, Look,

275
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:03,200
Speaker 6: we don't.

276
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:05,079
Speaker 7: Need to discuss that. The Texas A and this is

277
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:07,280
Speaker 7: Kentucky Sports Radio. They don't want to hear about that.

278
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:14,360
Speaker 7: She doesn't she doesn't understand that. The inside joke we caught.

279
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:16,840
Speaker 5: Cheating in a trivia game using Google Yah.

280
00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 2: Tom Hart had a trivia contest and Shannon was cheating

281
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:24,000
Speaker 2: like on every question, got them all right, So one

282
00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:25,559
Speaker 2: of them was about the Texas A and M A D.

283
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 2: Shannon of course pulled that name out of nowhere one day.

284
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, Trev Alberts, No, absolutely not, no, no, we'll believe anything.

285
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,320
Speaker 6: At this point, Ryan can see me. My hands are

286
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:43,000
Speaker 6: in the air. I have not googling anything. Ryan, I

287
00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:45,000
Speaker 6: saw you. I saw you on the keyboard there, Drew

288
00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:48,000
Speaker 6: ask you the question, stop it. There we go, You're

289
00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:48,480
Speaker 6: a liar.

290
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 3: All That's part.

291
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:52,160
Speaker 4: About radio, though, is you can kind of cheat now,

292
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 4: not a trivia when people are asking you questions and

293
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:56,680
Speaker 4: you're actually playing a game. But my favorite part about

294
00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:59,320
Speaker 4: radio versus TV is I have my computer right here,

295
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:01,000
Speaker 4: and when I'm going hmm, what was.

296
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,000
Speaker 3: That guy's name or what was their record a couple

297
00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 3: of year, I could just punch it in there.

298
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:07,439
Speaker 4: Absolutely cheating on my own show every single day.

299
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:09,080
Speaker 3: When I do that, I guess.

300
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:10,800
Speaker 2: We are just getting started with the Lissa laying here

00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,360
Speaker 2: only is Shannon a big cheater, he's also a bonafid

342
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:45,320
Speaker 4: I got to the SEC. I flew into Cincinnati and

343
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,480

344
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 4: Bourbon Trail together. Oh yeah, we only did I think

345
00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:52,920
Speaker 4: four or five distilleries.

346
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,320
Speaker 3: So I any excuse.

00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:00,840
Speaker 4: and grill and continue the whiskey the Bourbon Trail. I'm one,

349
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 4: and I need to know what kind of songs the

350
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:04,600
Speaker 4: bar the band sings though.

351
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:09,200

352
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:13,240
Speaker 7: like Errol Smith to a Green Day, and then we'll

353
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 7: throw in like we throw in a Darius Rucker song

354
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:18,600
Speaker 7: for Ryan because whenever Ryant, we have a tradition that

355
00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 7: when Ryan's at one of our shows, we wait till

356
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:22,920
Speaker 7: a little bit later in the night after he's gotten

357
00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 7: some liquid liquid courage, and usually he gets up on stage,

358
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:29,160
Speaker 7: he sings wagon Wheel with the band, his shirt comes off.

359
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 6: It's a whole thing.

360
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:33,120
Speaker 7: So I expect nothing less than that next Friday from

361
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:34,080
Speaker 7: you Ryan.

362
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 4: At kas You know, I only say this because I

363
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:41,040
Speaker 4: know there's some playful banter. But you know, Darius Rucker

364
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:43,520
Speaker 4: is you know, Darius Rucker is a game cock, right.

365
00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 2: I know that there's there's there's a couple of days

366
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:47,560
Speaker 2: a year we can't be friends. I mean we're really tight,

367
00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:50,640
Speaker 2: we're like best we're BFFs, but when they play each other,

368
00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 2: we can't be friends on those days. So you know

369
00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:54,360
Speaker 2: you probably don't.

370
00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 6: I got a story.

371
00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:56,560
Speaker 2: I tell you what happened to me at the Kentucky

372
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:58,800
Speaker 2: South Carolina football game. Might as well tell it right now.

373
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,160
Speaker 6: Now we need your help, Melissa, tell it, Okay.

374
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 2: I go down to watch Kentucky play at South Carolina,

375
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:05,600
Speaker 2: the first time I've been there in the arena, and

376
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:07,040
Speaker 2: the atmosphere was awesome.

377
00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:07,840
Speaker 6: It was great.

378
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:09,640
Speaker 2: I took my son. I wanted him to see it.

379
00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:12,440
Speaker 2: Even though Kentucky got beat, the atmosphere was a plus.

380
00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:15,600
Speaker 2: After the game, we meet the team after the after

381
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:17,040
Speaker 2: they come out. Because I'm a good friends with Dame

382
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:20,920
Speaker 2: Key and We're walking to our car, and I got

383
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 2: involved in a little altercation and got sucker punched. That

384
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 2: fractured my jaw. From a South Carolina college student, Yes,

385
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:29,760
Speaker 2: this is true. I'm not kidding you. You know where

386
00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:35,640
Speaker 2: you go to the uh the statue outside the stadium, yeah, uh,

387
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 2: and then you go left.

388
00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:38,520
Speaker 6: We were walking to our car. It was at the

389
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:40,360
Speaker 6: next stoplight right in front of the stadium.

390
00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:43,640
Speaker 2: Got decked. They never saw it coming. Yeah, there you

391
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:46,800
Speaker 2: goeth Well, I picked my All of a sudden, I

392
00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:49,640
Speaker 2: realized I'm on the ground, Like, why am I laying

393
00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:50,200
Speaker 2: on the ground.

394
00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:51,000
Speaker 6: It took me a minute.

395
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:57,040
Speaker 2: He just as you can probably imagine, some drunk South

396
00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:59,800
Speaker 2: Carolina college guys started yelling at all of us wearing

397
00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 2: all are blue, and they start we started yelling back,

398
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:04,520
Speaker 2: and it kind of just got heated. Next thing I know, bam,

399
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:05,440
Speaker 2: I'm on the concrete.

400
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:08,160
Speaker 5: He had to drink soup for a month around Christmas time.

401
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:11,480
Speaker 6: You didn't even eat real food. Yeah. January thirty, South

402
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:13,480
Speaker 6: Carolina game Cocks. Yeah.

403
00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:15,840
Speaker 4: I hate that that happen because I feel like, and

404
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:18,760
Speaker 4: maybe I'm way off on this. Maybe I need a

405
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,520
Speaker 4: ten thousand foot view to really get the truth on this,

406
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,720
Speaker 4: but I felt like we were one of the nice

407
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:27,720
Speaker 4: fan bases, like when you come, you have a good experience.

408
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:31,480
Speaker 4: I actually recently was in Knoxville and I was visiting

409
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:33,760
Speaker 4: with a friend of a friend of someone on our

410
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,600
Speaker 4: crew and he was helping us. Really long story short,

411
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:38,679
Speaker 4: It was the next game. I guess maybe not so

412
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,000
Speaker 4: recently now, but it was the next game after the

413
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:41,879
Speaker 4: Alabama wins.

414
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,240
Speaker 3: So this was not recently. It was two years ago.

415
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 4: Now, and we were doing a fancy open for our

416
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:51,720
Speaker 4: show that weekend about pretending to fish the goalpost out

417
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:53,760
Speaker 4: of the Tennessee River. So I put on a wet

418
00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 4: suit and some goggles and jumped in the Tennessee River.

419
00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:58,800
Speaker 4: But we needed a boat, so again a friend of

420
00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,119
Speaker 4: a friend of a friend was able to help us

421
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:03,400
Speaker 4: use his boat and took us out there. And he

422
00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:06,800
Speaker 4: is a diehard Tennessee fan, came from a long line

423
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:10,000
Speaker 4: of Tennessee volunteers, and he was telling me about how

424
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:13,040
Speaker 4: wonderful his experiences are in Columbia and how he feels

425
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:15,680
Speaker 4: like that is, despite the hatred between the fan bases,

426
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,320
Speaker 4: one of the nicest fan bases in the SEC. And

427
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:21,119
Speaker 4: it made me so happy inside because I love the

428
00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:23,399
Speaker 4: rivalry on the field, on the court, whatever it is.

429
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 3: But I wanted to be a good experience and I

430
00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:28,560
Speaker 3: hate that that happened to you. I'm sorry on behind.

431
00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:34,520
Speaker 7: No matter where you were, you yelling at them, though

432
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:36,600
Speaker 7: I thought you said originally you weren't doing anything.

433
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 6: So I remember I went in.

434
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:39,800
Speaker 3: Thicket.

435
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,480
Speaker 6: Yeah, I went in and was trying to break it up.

436
00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:44,560
Speaker 2: I remember I had my hand kind of break it up,

437
00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:46,920
Speaker 2: had my head turned, and somebody just clocked me from

438
00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:48,040
Speaker 2: from the blinds.

439
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:48,760
Speaker 6: I never saw it.

440
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:51,680
Speaker 3: I haven't heard what he said though, like what did

441
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:53,280
Speaker 3: you say before the clocking?

442
00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:56,520
Speaker 4: Not that not that there's a justification for anyone punching

443
00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:58,840
Speaker 4: in the face, but I always think it's interesting to

444
00:18:58,960 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 4: know what was said.

445
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,240
Speaker 6: I remember what the guys were saying from South Kina.

446
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:07,160
Speaker 2: They're making fun of some female uk UH fans, making

447
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:09,280
Speaker 2: fun of what they were wearing, and that kind of

448
00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:11,560
Speaker 2: guy that everybody upset. And so I'm in there trying

449
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:13,480
Speaker 2: to hold my hands out and like, I don't remember

450
00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:15,159
Speaker 2: what if I've seen anything, and it's bam, next thing,

451
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:16,920
Speaker 2: I know him on the concrete.

452
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:21,800
Speaker 4: And it's not the majority of any fan base. I

453
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:24,560
Speaker 4: believe that to my core that the bad experiences that

454
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 4: I've had with various fans is not nearly close to

455
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 4: being representative of the rest of the fan bases.

456
00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:33,840
Speaker 2: I can I can confirm it was not Yeah, I

457
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 2: can affirm it was not Alyssa laying and it was

458
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:36,800
Speaker 2: not Darius Rucker.

459
00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:39,719
Speaker 7: So you would have been perfectly fine if it were

460
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:41,240
Speaker 7: Darius r let's about it.

461
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:42,720
Speaker 6: You would have said, thank you, can I have another?

462
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:44,639
Speaker 7: That's what you would say to Dari You have a

463
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:46,359
Speaker 7: band crush on Darius that runs deep.

464
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:48,760
Speaker 6: Uh, they'll probably win it. You probably play it.

465
00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:52,320
Speaker 2: Probably played a Darius song today, Shannon, probably the Whiskey

466
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:55,760
Speaker 2: Thief song of the day, So prepare for that. So so, uh,

467
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:57,160
Speaker 2: you've gotten a lot of great stories.

468
00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:58,359
Speaker 6: We want to get to Buh.

469
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:00,119
Speaker 2: It's not the course of the show here, but I'd

470
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:01,360
Speaker 2: run out of time he before we got to take

471
00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:03,919
Speaker 2: a break. So just a real quick hit on the

472
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:06,760
Speaker 2: Paul fine bomb laying Kiffin thing that happened yesterday.

473
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:10,639
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, so that was actually on Monday, I think.

474
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:13,720
Speaker 4: And it's funny there's so much content at media days

475
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:15,680
Speaker 4: flying around that sometimes things get.

476
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:16,639
Speaker 3: Lost in the sauce.

477
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:20,479
Speaker 4: And clips that get tweeted don't necessarily get you know,

478
00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:22,120
Speaker 4: noticed on Twitter until.

479
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:24,840
Speaker 3: A couple days later. But those guys are hilarious.

480
00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:28,520
Speaker 4: Between Kiffen and fine Bomb on the set, Saban being

481
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:31,159
Speaker 4: in our production room all week as a member of

482
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 4: the media, I went from being so nervous before interviews

483
00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:38,959
Speaker 4: with him at halftime postgame, just sitting next to him

484
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,520
Speaker 4: at a table drinking coffee, looking over the show, just

485
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:44,560
Speaker 4: kind of like making sure that I'm doing everything right

486
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:47,840
Speaker 4: so that coach won't, you know, be uncomfortable or be

487
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:49,720
Speaker 4: I don't know, so he won't yell at me.

488
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:50,280
Speaker 3: Like a player.

489
00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:52,159
Speaker 4: I don't know why I'm so nervous around it, But

490
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:56,040
Speaker 4: there were so many different vibes to your point, from

491
00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:58,960
Speaker 4: from the set to the production room with our coaches this.

492
00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:02,720
Speaker 5: Week, of our moments to h Lane kiff When I

493
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:05,800
Speaker 5: enjoyed Cole Kublick meditating yesterday, I feel like you needed

494
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:08,480
Speaker 5: to meditate during that debate. But there was lots of

495
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:10,159
Speaker 5: stuff that was fun to keep up with on the

496
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:11,480
Speaker 5: internet that.

497
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,359
Speaker 3: Was interesting, and you guys cut me off when we

498
00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:16,760
Speaker 3: need to hit a break. But I was not really

499
00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:19,520
Speaker 3: expecting the cublic Aucho segment to go that way.

500
00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:22,040
Speaker 4: When I teed it up, I was the host on

501
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:24,160
Speaker 4: the desk, and I will say that what I said

502
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:26,679
Speaker 4: happened in the break is one hundred percent accurate. That

503
00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:29,159
Speaker 4: Aucho said, I don't know what's so special about the

504
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:31,920
Speaker 4: Iron Bowl anyway, and he was not really joking when

505
00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:32,439
Speaker 4: he said it.

506
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:33,359
Speaker 3: I think he was.

507
00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:36,879
Speaker 4: Really ninety percent being serious. So we said, well, this

508
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,080
Speaker 4: will make it for good TV. Cole already did this

509
00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,560
Speaker 4: with Dusty Devorceek earlier in the week when it came

510
00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:44,320
Speaker 4: to the Oklahoma side. Now we've got the Texas guy here.

511
00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:46,160
Speaker 4: We've been talking a lot of football. Sometimes you got

512
00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:48,439
Speaker 4: to make some fun in right. We're not trying to be,

513
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,440
Speaker 4: you know, explosive all the time, but sometimes it's nice

514
00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:53,520
Speaker 4: to take a little bit of a break from diagnosing

515
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:55,160
Speaker 4: position groups across the league.

516
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:56,640
Speaker 3: Well, do some spec talk.

517
00:21:56,960 --> 00:22:00,480
Speaker 4: And I was I was eventually expecting the conversation for

518
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:02,080
Speaker 4: both of them to look at each other and go,

519
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:04,439
Speaker 4: both of them are awesome football games.

520
00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:05,440
Speaker 3: Let's be real.

521
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:09,560
Speaker 4: You know, Texas forever, Auburn or Alabama forever, whatever, but

522
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:12,480
Speaker 4: your game's pretty cool too. But Aunsa was like, no,

523
00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:16,320
Speaker 4: I have no interest in the Iron bul She is Alyssa.

524
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,080
Speaker 2: Lang, and she's got a great story coming up about

525
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:19,359
Speaker 2: Will Levis and Coach Doops.

Speaker 7: Now more of Kentucky Sports Radio, Present it by Stockton Mortgage.

531
00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:33,800
Speaker 6: Here's Matt Jones Alyssa Lang.

532
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,080
Speaker 2: This is the whiskey thief song of the day, one

533
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 2: of the greatest songs ever written by one of the

534
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:39,160
Speaker 2: greatest musicians of all time.

535
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:40,280
Speaker 6: This is it right here.

536
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:44,160
Speaker 4: I cannot believe that you guys picked this song because

537
00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:48,320
Speaker 4: this song has deep roots within the Lang family, so huge.

538
00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:50,040
Speaker 3: Hoody and the Blowfish fan ever since.

539
00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:53,000
Speaker 4: I can remember riding around the car with my dad,

540
00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:56,320
Speaker 4: he says, Now, I don't remember this. I remember listening

541
00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:58,080
Speaker 4: to this song a lot, but I don't remember this.

542
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:01,640
Speaker 4: He said that when I was three four years old,

543
00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 4: that I was in the car this song came on,

544
00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:07,679
Speaker 4: and I thought the lyrics were hold my ham as.

545
00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:11,040
Speaker 3: In the stelly meat ham and.

546
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:14,320
Speaker 4: That I would belt the lyrics hold my ham out

547
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:16,200
Speaker 4: in the car, which which kind of checks out because

548
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:19,479
Speaker 4: I'm a big foodie. I if you see me at

549
00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 4: any point during the day, I'm probably eating something.

550
00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:24,720
Speaker 3: And then it kind of was poetic when we went

551
00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:25,760
Speaker 3: on our tour of.

552
00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:27,880
Speaker 4: Colleges and we found out that Hoody and the Blowfish

553
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 4: kind of originated at South Carolina and we had no

554
00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:33,800
Speaker 4: connections to the university prior to me going there. My

555
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,199
Speaker 4: dad said, I think this is actually poetic that this

556
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:39,120
Speaker 4: was our song, and that will probably be the song

557
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:41,479
Speaker 4: that my dad and I danced to at my wedding,

558
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:42,880
Speaker 4: So it's just kind of cool.

559
00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:44,400
Speaker 3: I love that that's our song of the day.

560
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:46,880
Speaker 6: Phone lines were open.

561
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:48,840
Speaker 2: The Clark's publish off full line is eight five nine

562
00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:50,440
Speaker 2: two to eight zho two two eight seven. If you

563
00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 2: want to call and have a question for a Lissa Laying,

564
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:53,960
Speaker 2: who was down SEC football media days all week.

565
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:55,959
Speaker 6: We got Robert up first, so go ahead, Robert, You're

566
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:56,800
Speaker 6: on with a Lissa lang.

567
00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:00,200
Speaker 8: Hey. I was wondering if you guys, might I be

568
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:03,239
Speaker 8: able to hook Alyssa up with Kentucky branded so that

569
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:05,720
Speaker 8: she can get her some Kentucky blue to replace the

570
00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:11,040
Speaker 8: Tennessee orange that she wore for the SEC tournament. You know,

571
00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:13,679
Speaker 8: I know, she loves in South Carolina, but I know

572
00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:15,320
Speaker 8: Tennessee must be a close second.

573
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:17,000
Speaker 3: Oh man, go.

574
00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:19,640
Speaker 6: Alica, Thank you, Robert, appreciate it.

575
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:20,640
Speaker 3: It's extremely fair.

576
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:24,920
Speaker 4: I will say I have a shirt after the Levice

577
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:28,240
Speaker 4: Mayo coffee.

578
00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:31,000
Speaker 3: Saga that we went through. I have a shirt from Gosh.

579
00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:32,880
Speaker 4: Forgive me for not knowing the name of the store,

580
00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:35,440
Speaker 4: because I think it's a pretty popular store there in Lexington,

581
00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:36,320
Speaker 4: and it's.

582
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:37,200
Speaker 3: Escaping me right now.

583
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:40,359
Speaker 4: It says the best part of waking up is Mayo

584
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,520
Speaker 4: in your cup. And it is Kentucky blue the T shirt.

585
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:48,600
Speaker 4: I wear it quite often. So yeah, the SEC Baseball

586
00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:51,840
Speaker 4: tournament not great packing on my part. I will admit

587
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:56,119
Speaker 4: that I had been on the road for like fourteen

588
00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 4: days I think at that point between the SEC Softball tournament.

589
00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 4: Then I I went straight up to Bristol to do

590
00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:06,760
Speaker 4: some to do some studio wraps for softball shows. Then

591
00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:11,560
Speaker 4: I literally flew home for sixty minutes to just switch

592
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:15,720
Speaker 4: suitcases out and then fly to Hoover. And I always

593
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:18,600
Speaker 4: look at the bracket when I'm packing. I don't own

594
00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:21,800
Speaker 4: a lot of color anyway. I'm usually always wearing black

595
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:24,800
Speaker 4: for this exact reason. But sometimes you like to switch

596
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 4: it up, especially in the spring. In summer months, black's

597
00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:30,159
Speaker 4: kind of a hot color to wear when you're, you know,

598
00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:32,119
Speaker 4: in the middle of a baseball softball field and the

599
00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,359
Speaker 4: sun is beating down on you. So I'm looking at

600
00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:36,200
Speaker 4: my side of the bracket. I'm going, all right, I've

601
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:38,240
Speaker 4: got the morning and the day session. I don't even

602
00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:40,720
Speaker 4: have Tennessee on my side of the bracket. I have

603
00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 4: this shirt that I just got a shipment in from

604
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:45,800
Speaker 4: Express and it's one of the few clean things that

605
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:47,879
Speaker 4: I have. It's orange, but I don't even have to

606
00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:49,639
Speaker 4: deal with Tennessee. So I'm just gonna throw it in

607
00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:54,560
Speaker 4: forgetting that. Unlike softball, the losers switch sides of the

608
00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:57,920
Speaker 4: bracket in Hoover, and I just forgot that small detail

609
00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:01,320
Speaker 4: when I was packing. Lo and behold, Tennessee loses switches

610
00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:03,720
Speaker 4: to my side, and I'm wearing Tennessee orange on the sets.

611
00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:05,960
Speaker 3: So that's my reasoning for that.

612
00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:10,480
Speaker 2: Now, you Levis, and you told us you have a

613
00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:13,480
Speaker 2: good Levis Mark Stoops story, So since you mentioning, what

614
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:14,240
Speaker 2: is that story?

615
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, So we tweeted out that I was going to

616
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:20,000
Speaker 4: do the show today and someone tweeted that they wanted

617
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:22,239
Speaker 4: the secrets, They wanted the behind the scenes stuff, and

618
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:24,920
Speaker 4: I actually told this story to someone at Media Days

619
00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:28,400
Speaker 4: this week as well. One of my favorite memories from

620
00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:31,640
Speaker 4: the Will Levis Mark Stoops era was that very first game,

621
00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:33,879
Speaker 4: and I actually pulled up the box score to make

622
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:35,679
Speaker 4: sure I could remember what the numbers were. It was

623
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:38,720
Speaker 4: ULM Kentucky and I was on the sidelines for that

624
00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:39,920
Speaker 4: game in twenty twenty one.

625
00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:42,520
Speaker 3: Forty five to ten was the final of that game.

626
00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:46,520
Speaker 4: And of course there was a lot of discussion surrounding

627
00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:49,760
Speaker 4: the beginning of that game and the beginning of that

628
00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:52,879
Speaker 4: season as far as, oh, well, coach Soops finally has

629
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:55,680
Speaker 4: a passing quarterback. You know, it's been a running offense

630
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,120
Speaker 4: for so long. We're finally going to rip the football,

631
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:01,920
Speaker 4: throw the football. So I'm talking to coach Stops on Friday,

632
00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:05,159
Speaker 4: and this is fresh off of the banana TikTok that

633
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 4: Will Levis has gone viral four over the summer. I'd

634
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:11,640
Speaker 4: brought a banana with me, thinking that sometimes those Week

635
00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:13,960
Speaker 4: one games get into a little bit of garbage time.

636
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:16,800
Speaker 4: You're looking for things to talk about in the second half,

637
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:18,959
Speaker 4: and obviously forty five to ten that's the situation we

638
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:21,640
Speaker 4: were in. So on Friday, I asked coach Stoops, how

639
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:25,280
Speaker 4: many yards does Levis have to throw four tomorrow for

640
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:28,679
Speaker 4: you to eat the banana, because I actually have an

641
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:30,199
Speaker 4: extra one if you know you want to do it

642
00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:32,960
Speaker 4: in the postgame interview and he said, I think four

643
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:33,720
Speaker 4: hundred yards.

644
00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:35,520
Speaker 3: I think four hundred yards is the magic number.

645
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:37,600
Speaker 4: So we get towards the end of the game we're

646
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:39,879
Speaker 4: watching at this point, I have eaten the banana on

647
00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:41,800
Speaker 4: the sidelines because I think, I said, oh, if.

648
00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 3: He hits three hundred, I'll do.

649
00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:44,520
Speaker 4: It, because sometimes just kidding, I'm not just gonna do

650
00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:46,320
Speaker 4: it just to do it right that there has to

651
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:48,680
Speaker 4: be something on the line to eat a banana with

652
00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:50,240
Speaker 4: a peel on it, So I do mine.

653
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:54,919
Speaker 3: Will sees it on the sideline. He's laughing. Stoops pulls

654
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:56,280
Speaker 3: him at three hundred.

655
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 4: And sixty seven passing yards, just shy of four hundred,

656
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:03,720
Speaker 4: and Will comes off the field. I'm standing just a

657
00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:05,639
Speaker 4: couple of yards back behind the bench. He looks at

658
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:07,240
Speaker 4: me and he goes, you know, he did that on

659
00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:09,320
Speaker 4: purpose so he wouldn't have to eat the banana. He

660
00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:12,000
Speaker 4: pulled me before I hit four hundred and then bo

661
00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:14,440
Speaker 4: Allen came in and threw for another fifty two yards,

662
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:16,240
Speaker 4: so he would have hit it. And it was just

663
00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:18,639
Speaker 4: one of those things where I have given him. I

664
00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:20,679
Speaker 4: gave him grief for that for the rest of the season.

665
00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:22,960
Speaker 4: And Will said again to me when he was running

666
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,520
Speaker 4: off the field, he pulled me so he wouldn't have

667
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:26,360
Speaker 4: to eat that banana.

668
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:27,879
Speaker 3: He was scared to eat that bananas.

669
00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:31,800
Speaker 4: It remains one of my favorite dumb college football moments

670
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:35,480
Speaker 4: I've been able to be witnessed to on the sideline.

671
00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 4: So that's that's my Will Levis mark Soups story from

672
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:41,360
Speaker 4: his first year, going way back to banana Gate, if

673
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 4: that's what we're calling in I think we.

674
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:45,480
Speaker 5: Remember following that closely and we agree that was all

675
00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:47,960
Speaker 5: on Mark Stoops avoiding when you eat that banana, which

676
00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:49,000
Speaker 5: makes me wonder scared.

677
00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:51,400
Speaker 4: You know, I thought I thought that he'd be a

678
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:54,920
Speaker 4: guy who would really, you know, embrace it and want

679
00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:55,280
Speaker 4: to do it.

680
00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:57,240
Speaker 3: I hope you can hear my sarcasm here, But he

681
00:28:57,720 --> 00:28:59,680
Speaker 3: was scared. He was scared to eat banana.

682
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:02,760
Speaker 5: That makes me think about I saw at Doubt in

683
00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:04,840
Speaker 5: Dallas this week they had all those I guess It's

684
00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:07,960
Speaker 5: just a staged area for photos for every team, got

685
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:10,040
Speaker 5: the big light up logo of each team. But then

686
00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:12,680
Speaker 5: there was a mechanical bull and I see like Shane

687
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:15,480
Speaker 5: Beemer on it, riding it around all these coaches. But

688
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:17,720
Speaker 5: I wondered if Mark Stoops would ever get on it.

689
00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:19,920
Speaker 5: Did you happen to see Stoops hop on that bull?

690
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 5: It's not really in his character to do it, so

691
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:24,560
Speaker 5: we're betting against him. But I thought maybe he pulled

692
00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:25,920
Speaker 5: off the upset and took it for a ride for

693
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:26,360
Speaker 5: a photo.

694
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,760
Speaker 4: You know, I haven't seen the photo yet, and usually

695
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 4: the SEC social media squad is really good about posting

696
00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:35,080
Speaker 4: those as soon as they get them, so that tells

697
00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:37,520
Speaker 4: me he probably did not get on it. You know,

698
00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:41,479
Speaker 4: yesterday we had an interesting assortment of guys that we

699
00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:43,720
Speaker 4: wondered if they would get on the mechanical bull. And

700
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:45,760
Speaker 4: how I can tell you I did get on the

701
00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:48,920
Speaker 4: mechanical bull, and my head was very close to grazing

702
00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:51,600
Speaker 4: the top of the ceiling, so I couldn't imagine what

703
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:53,680
Speaker 4: that would be like for guys who were a lot

704
00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:57,080
Speaker 4: taller than me, which is every single football player and

705
00:29:57,160 --> 00:30:01,280
Speaker 4: coach who were in attendance at media days. But yeah,

706
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:04,680
Speaker 4: the picture of Shane didn't look super comfortable on top

707
00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 4: of the bowl.

708
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 3: I can say I was not super comfortable either.

709
00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:13,000
Speaker 4: But between Stoops, Pittman, and Elko yesterday, I wondered who

710
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:16,200
Speaker 4: would be most likely to actually get on top of

711
00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:18,240
Speaker 4: that thing, and I don't think I've seen.

712
00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 3: Maybe Elko got on it.

713
00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:21,400
Speaker 4: Maybe I actually saw a picture of him on it,

714
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:24,320
Speaker 4: But I'm not sure that Pittman or Stoops that that's

715
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 4: their speed. I hope it is, because I'd love to

716
00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:29,240
Speaker 4: see the picture, but I'm not sure that I would

717
00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:31,080
Speaker 4: bet that they got on that thing.

718
00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 5: Well, they always won, maybe they could do the Peter

719
00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:35,480
Speaker 5: Burns Chris Doring both get on it at the same time,

720
00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:35,800
Speaker 5: like I.

721
00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:36,240
Speaker 7: Saw from.

722
00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:39,520
Speaker 3: Those guys are ridiculous.

723
00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:43,680
Speaker 4: I actually went into that room right when they were done,

724
00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:46,440
Speaker 4: because I made the mistake a few years ago of

725
00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:49,040
Speaker 4: going into that room with them. And it's just it's

726
00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:52,000
Speaker 4: it's almost you feel like you shouldn't be watching it right,

727
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:53,520
Speaker 4: Like you feel like they should be in a room

728
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:56,200
Speaker 4: by themselves, you know, with just their little their their

729
00:30:56,240 --> 00:31:00,520
Speaker 4: little bromance photo shoot. It's it's almost like I feel

730
00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:02,880
Speaker 4: like I'm watching something I shouldn't be watching with them

731
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:05,560
Speaker 4: both sitting on top with the mechanical.

732
00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:08,920
Speaker 3: Bull like that together. But they're a special pair, that's

733
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:09,360
Speaker 3: for sure.

734
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:11,800
Speaker 2: Now that there's a guy that listened to our show

735
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:13,320
Speaker 2: and he sits up in the booth with Tom Leach

736
00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:15,960
Speaker 2: during the broadcast named Corey Price, he kind of he's

737
00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:19,000
Speaker 2: the stat guy. He's our swab. He knows everything, and

738
00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:21,120
Speaker 2: he tweets out. He finds these pictures and tweets out

739
00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 2: pictures of our guest we have on.

740
00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:24,000
Speaker 6: He's tweeted out a picture.

741
00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:26,600
Speaker 2: Of you doing a one man band with a football team.

742
00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:28,560
Speaker 2: Is that a youth football team or a high school

743
00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:30,959
Speaker 2: football team or something there and you're shooting the camera

744
00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:32,800
Speaker 2: doing the interview with something. Do you have you seen

745
00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:33,280
Speaker 2: that yet?

746
00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:35,080
Speaker 3: Yeah?

747
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:37,760
Speaker 4: I don't know where he found that picture. Honestly, that

748
00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:40,640
Speaker 4: picture has got to be Let me do somebod how

749
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:41,160
Speaker 4: old am I?

750
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:43,760
Speaker 3: That picture's got to be like eleven or twelve years old?

751
00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 4: At this point, I worked in local news in Columbia

752
00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:50,720
Speaker 4: before I headed down to Jacksonville for another local news

753
00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:52,120
Speaker 4: and then the SEC network.

754
00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:55,720
Speaker 3: I want to say that was a high school football

755
00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:58,360
Speaker 3: pre state championship event.

756
00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:01,160
Speaker 4: Potentially they were playing the state championship at the time

757
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:05,080
Speaker 4: at that stadium. They may still play the South Carolina

758
00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:08,719
Speaker 4: High School football championship still at that stadium, but no

759
00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:13,240
Speaker 4: matter what level, all the private schools three A, four A,

760
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:15,520
Speaker 4: five A, they were all there, And so I think

761
00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 4: that was a media event beforehand. And it looks like

762
00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:20,840
Speaker 4: I committed the ultimate cardinal sin that you are not

763
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,080
Speaker 4: supposed to commit as a sideline reporter, which is giving

764
00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:24,040
Speaker 4: up the microphone.

765
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:24,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, and in.

766
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:26,760
Speaker 4: The picture you can see that I clearly have given

767
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:29,080
Speaker 4: up the microphone, and I'm just manning the camera and

768
00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:30,960
Speaker 4: letting the guys interview each other.

769
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:33,440
Speaker 3: But looking at the picture, it looks like they're having

770
00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:34,040
Speaker 3: a good time.

771
00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:36,520
Speaker 4: So I think I must have gotten some good content

772
00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:37,920
Speaker 4: out of it, So maybe it was worth it.

773
00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:40,479
Speaker 2: She is Alyssa Lang, and she's going to be here

774

Speaker 2: of drew behind the scenes the sec media.

779

Speaker 4: What's your food plan for thirty high school football players? Like?

807
00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:57,720
Speaker 3: What? What are you? Are you getting food?

808
00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:00,480
Speaker 2: How do you plan that the team moms are handling

809
00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:02,240
Speaker 2: all that they're going to have like a tacko bar?

810
00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:03,560
Speaker 6: I think down in the basement.

811
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:06,080
Speaker 2: So the team moms do and everything they I just

812
00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:07,800
Speaker 2: needed to get the pool ready and get it ready

813
00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:10,719
Speaker 2: to go. So yeah, just a little warning to my

814
00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:13,600
Speaker 2: neighbors this afternoon. Maybe a little rough around my house

815
00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:14,400
Speaker 2: from my neighbors.

816
00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:16,879
Speaker 7: But uh, Ryan, you and you don't trust thirty high

Speaker 7: school football players at your house with you not being there.

818
00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:22,160
Speaker 7: I mean you're yeah, you can just go to the game.

819
00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:24,839
Speaker 7: I think it's nothing. Sure, what's the worst that could happen?

820
00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:27,680

Speaker 6: All right, Jen Alyssa, we got like a bunch of questions.

833
00:35:04,520 --> 00:35:06,359
Speaker 2: I don't we want talk about set Football Media Day,

834
00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:08,880
Speaker 2: but I want to get into maybe more of your career,

835
00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:11,799
Speaker 2: your profession. You said you started local in Columbia. Now

836
00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:14,640
Speaker 2: you're the big time with ESPN the SEC network. You

837
00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:17,520
Speaker 2: do a lot of the sideline stuff. Have you ever

838
00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:20,000
Speaker 2: had a bad interaction with the coach when you when

839
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:22,200
Speaker 2: you grab him for those like two questions at halftime?

840
00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:24,920
Speaker 2: Have you had anything where it didn't go well or

841
00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:26,080
Speaker 2: if something funny happened?

842
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:26,480
Speaker 6: Maybe?

843
00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:31,160
Speaker 4: Oh man, well, I've had plenty of where something's funny happened.

844
00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:35,400
Speaker 4: I've had plenty where you know, sometimes the halftime interviews

845
00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:38,480
Speaker 4: we do they're not always on camera, so obviously the

846
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:43,120
Speaker 4: ones that are you see those, but typically the coach

847
00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:45,879
Speaker 4: or team that is down at halftime, and this goes

848
00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:49,160
Speaker 4: for football, basketball, really any any sport with a halftime

849
00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:53,239
Speaker 4: break and a halftime report. Uh, you're talking with the

850
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:56,719
Speaker 4: other coach coming back onto the field and just kind

851
00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:58,640
Speaker 4: of asking him a couple of questions or her a

852
00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:01,520
Speaker 4: couple of questions, and then you do your hit coming

853
00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:04,680
Speaker 4: out of halftime, just kind of summarizing what they said.

854
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:07,479
Speaker 4: If there's any key notes to be aware of coming

855
00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:08,360
Speaker 4: into the second half.

856
00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:10,600
Speaker 3: There was a coach he is no.

857
00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:13,799
Speaker 4: Longer in the SEC as of just a couple of

858
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:17,719
Speaker 4: years ago, who coming back on at half, tried to

859
00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:20,719
Speaker 4: run past me because he didn't want to talk to me.

860
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:23,560
Speaker 4: I guess things were not really going well with his

861
00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:27,359
Speaker 4: program at the time. He had taken his team on

862
00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:29,880
Speaker 4: this night to South Carolina and it was kind of

863
00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:32,760
Speaker 4: a shocking beatdown on the side of the game Cocks

864
00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:36,400
Speaker 4: on this team, and he was just very short with me,

865
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:39,839
Speaker 4: wasn't really willing to answer any questions. But at the time,

866
00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:44,160
Speaker 4: you know, you kind of still still relay the information,

867
00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:46,960
Speaker 4: but kind of clean it up without maybe some of

868
00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:51,280
Speaker 4: the rudeness that you got in that interaction when giving

869
00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:52,240
Speaker 4: that halftime report.

870
00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:55,120
Speaker 3: But I will say probably the.

871
00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:58,799
Speaker 4: Strangest halftime interaction that I had was witnessed by some

872
00:36:58,920 --> 00:36:59,800
Speaker 4: Kentucky fans.

873
00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:01,520
Speaker 3: I think this was two years ago.

874
00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:07,719
Speaker 4: I did a Kentucky at Vanderbilt basketball game and Kentucky

875
00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:10,400
Speaker 4: was up at the half. I think it was coming

876
00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:13,600
Speaker 4: off of a weekend where and I'd have to go

877
00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:16,080
Speaker 4: back to the schedule to check what game this would

878
00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:17,680
Speaker 4: have been, but I think it was coming off of

879
00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:21,399
Speaker 4: a disappointing loss for Kentucky the weekend before, so there

880
00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:24,560
Speaker 4: was definitely a lot of tension around the program. There

881
00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:28,359
Speaker 4: was a lot of chatter around what was happening at

882
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:30,160
Speaker 4: that point for coach Call and the Cats.

883
00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:32,960
Speaker 3: And I was sitting there waiting.

884
00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:35,000
Speaker 4: For Coach Call to come over to me, and he

885
00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:37,480
Speaker 4: looked at me, and he walked right past me, and

886
00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:39,960
Speaker 4: I tried to reach out and kind of grab his

887
00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:42,320
Speaker 4: shoulder because he knew he had to do an interview.

888
00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:44,600
Speaker 3: And again he was up. And typically when a coach

889
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:45,960
Speaker 3: is up at halftime.

890
00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:49,600
Speaker 4: They're not you know, they're not unwilling to stop and

891
00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:50,800
Speaker 4: do the halftime interview.

892
00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:53,520
Speaker 3: And Coach cal just did not have.

893
00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:57,200
Speaker 4: Any intention of stopping and giving me that halftime interviewed.

894
00:37:57,200 --> 00:37:58,960
Speaker 4: It was funny because you kind of make eye contact

895
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:01,120
Speaker 4: with the guys who were called in the game, and

896
00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:03,080
Speaker 4: so I'm looking across and they're looking at me, and

897
00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:05,319
Speaker 4: they can see when coach comes over to me, and

898
00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:08,200
Speaker 4: they start to go all right, well for more on

899
00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:10,239
Speaker 4: what's going on, and then they see Coach Cal kind

900
00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:12,680
Speaker 4: of blow by me and they're kind of like, well,

901
00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:15,480
Speaker 4: never mind, and so I'm kind.

902
00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:18,720
Speaker 3: Of standing there. This has never happened to me before.

903
00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:20,680
Speaker 3: I have never had a coach just.

904
00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:24,640
Speaker 4: Go nope and keep walking, and so I'm kind of

905
00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:27,960
Speaker 4: standing there like deer in the headlights, unsure of what

906
00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:30,560
Speaker 4: to do because I've been sitting here. I'm waiting for

907
00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:33,879
Speaker 4: this moment. I've got my questions ready, ready to go,

908
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:35,600
Speaker 4: and then you're just kind of standing there like you

909
00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:38,000
Speaker 4: got stood up on a first date. And I just

910
00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:40,000
Speaker 4: kind of put my tail between my legs and walk

911
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:44,600
Speaker 4: back to my seat. And thankfully it hasn't happened since

912
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:46,680
Speaker 4: with coach Cal TBD.

913
00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:48,319
Speaker 3: If it happens in Arkansas, but it was.

914
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:52,800
Speaker 4: That was probably one of the most awkward halftime interactions

915
00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:55,040
Speaker 4: I have ever had in my career.

916
00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:57,680
Speaker 3: If we're being honest.

917
00:38:57,040 --> 00:38:59,000
Speaker 5: Well, he stopped talking to us five years ago, so

918
00:38:59,360 --> 00:38:59,880
Speaker 5: to welcome to.

919
00:38:59,880 --> 00:39:03,520
Speaker 4: The Yeah, And I got a couple texts that night

920
00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:07,719
Speaker 4: from various Kentucky media or even friends, and they were like, yeah,

921
00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:10,319
Speaker 4: it's not just you don't worry about it and it

922
00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:13,560
Speaker 4: is not a personal thing. And it's funny because I

923
00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:15,640
Speaker 4: was gonna, I was gonna work this in if it's organic,

924
00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:17,040
Speaker 4: but I guess I'll make it organic.

925
00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:17,239
Speaker 3: Here.

926
00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:23,160
Speaker 4: My best friend since childhood married a Kentucky grad long

927
00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:25,920
Speaker 4: line of Kentucky grads a couple of years ago. They

928
00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:28,600
Speaker 4: just gave birth to their first child two days ago,

929
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:31,440
Speaker 4: and so she is already coming home from the hospital

930
00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:36,440
Speaker 4: today in Kentucky Blue. He watches everything. He listens to KSR.

931
00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:38,960
Speaker 4: Maybe not for the past couple of days because they've been,

932
00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:41,600
Speaker 4: you know, a little bit busy and preoccupied with that.

933
00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:44,319
Speaker 4: But he would text me and he would he would

934
00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:46,520
Speaker 4: be like, I'm so sorry, just like on behalf of

935
00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:49,360
Speaker 4: Cal for blowing by me, or if Cal maybe was

936
00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:51,120
Speaker 4: a little bit short in an interview, he'd be like,

937
00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:53,920
Speaker 4: I'm sorry. I hate that he does it to you.

938
00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:56,880
Speaker 4: And it was just so funny because it became personal.

939
00:39:57,160 --> 00:39:59,600
Speaker 4: He's sitting here going I love cal and I love

940
00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:03,240
Speaker 4: Kentucky and I would die for the Cats. But now

941
00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:06,239
Speaker 4: he has like a friend who's getting blown by by

942
00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:07,280
