We're not 26 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:17,560 Speaker 2: gonna get any of our top three guys, and then 27 00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:20,520 Speaker 2: we're gonna fall apart. Well, I mean, I'm sorry, I 28 00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 2: disagree with you on that. I mean, first of all, 29 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:24,759 Speaker 2: we may not get any of our top three guys. 30 00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:27,559 Speaker 2: That's always been a possibility. It's more of a possibility 31 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:29,920 Speaker 2: today than it was an hour ago, because I think 32 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 2: Drew was the one people felt the most confident about. 33 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:39,560 Speaker 2: But you know, I will be honest with you. I 34 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:43,920 Speaker 2: don't sort of understand why we freak out about the 35 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 2: future as much as we do. Can make Can I 36 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 2: make a statement for rationality and peace? 37 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 1: Please? 38 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,520 Speaker 2: Please do this, Mario. This would be a good one 39 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,120 Speaker 2: for you to turn into a video. My statement of 40 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 2: rationality and peace for the for the Big Blue Nation. 41 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 2: We have never, in the history of our school hired 42 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 2: a slam dunk coach. Okay, we've never hired a coach 43 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,640 Speaker 2: that had won a national championship, and we've only hired 44 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:15,080 Speaker 2: one coach that had ever been to two final fours. 45 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:20,360 Speaker 2: Oftentimes you're taking a risk, even at Kentucky. But the 46 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 2: thing is Kentucky elevates the coach. Okay, go look at 47 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 2: the guys who've had success before they took their first job. Okay, 48 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,120 Speaker 2: what success had Danny Hurley had before Yukon? 49 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 1: Did Seaton Hall? 50 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 2: Very little? Very little? Okay before he got to before 51 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:42,839 Speaker 2: he got to Seaton Hall. Let's go look what kind 52 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:47,080 Speaker 2: of success did Hubert Davis had before he took Carolina 53 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 2: the final four? None? 54 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: None? 55 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 2: What kind of success did John Shire have before he 56 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:54,640 Speaker 2: took the duke job? None? Bill self had had some 57 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:58,640 Speaker 2: success at Illinois. That was a pretty confident hire. But 58 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 2: you know what kind of sex success did Matt Painter. 59 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 1: Have before Purdue. None? 60 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 2: Like, if you hire the right guy and you put 61 00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 2: them with the right resources at Kentucky, they can win. 62 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 2: So while if we get to the second tier of coaches, 63 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,639 Speaker 2: I will be disappointed. Pick any coach in the country. 64 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 2: They will do better at Kentucky than they did at 65 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:23,359 Speaker 2: their previous job, as long as they're not an alcoholic. 66 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:29,639 Speaker 2: That's what history teaches us, right, That's what history teaches us. 67 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 2: They will do better here than they did anywhere else. 68 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 2: Rick Patino was a better coach at Kentucky than he 69 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 2: was anywhere else. John Caliperry was a better coach at 70 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 2: Kentucky than he was anywhere else. That's Tubby Smith was 71 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 2: a better coach at Kentucky than he was anywhere else. 72 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 2: Kentucky helps make the job. I do not believe anyone 73 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 2: can succeed at Kentucky, but I think a lot more 74 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 2: people can succeed at Kentucky than they can at any 75 00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 2: other school in the country except a couple, Right, So 76 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 2: I just I don't think the panic, especially it's been 77 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 2: forty eight hours, the panic is not necessary. There are 78 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 2: guys on that second tier list. It's a little bit 79 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 2: of a bigger gamble, but there are guys on that 80 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 2: second tier list who could come here and do really well, 81 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 2: who are really good coach really good coaches. Yes, and 82 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:23,840 Speaker 2: you give them these resources, Let's see what. 83 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: Happened, may elevate their game even more. 84 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:27,720 Speaker 2: Absolutely, let me just use Chris Beard as an example. 85 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,920 Speaker 2: Now there's other issues with Chris Beard, but Chris Beard 86 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 2: went to the National Championship game at Texas Tech. If 87 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 2: you went to the National Championship name at Texas Tech, 88 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:38,719 Speaker 2: you don't think Drew you can go the national Championship 89 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 2: game at Kentucky. I hope so. I would hope. 90 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 4: So. 91 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 2: Who was the coach at San Diego State last year? 92 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 5: Uh? 93 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 1: I can't remember his name. 94 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,160 Speaker 2: Did he go to the National Championship? 95 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 1: He did? 96 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 2: I bet he could go at Kentucky if he went 97 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,720 Speaker 2: at San Diego State. So there's a lot of different 98 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 2: ways to have success. I still want it to be 99 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 2: Danny Hurley or Billy Donovan, but these other dudes have 100 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:05,159 Speaker 2: a shot to be good too. If we get to 101 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:05,799 Speaker 2: that point. 102 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:07,840 Speaker 6: We're gonna have to do this soon anyway. I mean, 103 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 6: John Caliperry is sixty five years old. This was coming 104 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 6: whether next year, the year after that, it wasn't that 105 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 6: far away. At some point we were gonna have to 106 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 6: hit the reset. He's not a robot or machine. We're 107 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 6: gonna have to get a new coach soon, regardless. We 108 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:23,159 Speaker 6: were gonna lose a recruiting class eventually, and by the way, 109 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,719 Speaker 6: this isn't a bad one to lose. And I'm confident 110 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 6: that with the Nile support they'll get whoever the new 111 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:29,719 Speaker 6: hire will be. As long as it's not our thirtieth choice. 112 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 6: I'm gonna be excited about. 113 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 2: I'm very close to getting to the when you write 114 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,160 Speaker 2: me and say you ran you meaning Matt Jones ran 115 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,720 Speaker 2: off Cal, the blocking you and you are now out 116 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:43,280 Speaker 2: of my life face, because first of all, that's unbelievably stupid. Secondly, 117 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,280 Speaker 2: I do think you need to remember what Drew just said, 118 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 2: that man is not was not gonna coach forever. Okay, 119 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:56,360 Speaker 2: and objectively, let's be objective. Next year's team was going 120 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,839 Speaker 2: to be, on paper, not as good as this year's team. 121 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 2: We have a great recruiting class coming in, but what's 122 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:07,360 Speaker 2: how many of those guys are certain NBA players after 123 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:13,040 Speaker 2: a year? None of them are certain? None of them, 124 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 2: none of Jane Quainten's maybe we're gee. Any of them 125 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,359 Speaker 2: in the early twenty twenty five draft. Are any of 126 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 2: them projected in the first round? 127 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 1: Not sure? 128 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:26,240 Speaker 2: Don't remember seeing many. I'm not sure. So I'm not 129 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 2: saying they couldn't have been successful. But here's one of 130 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 2: the things we've learned about Cal. He worn't freshmen work 131 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 2: with him, but they better be really good, right. I 132 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 2: bet one of those guys would have been that, but 133 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 2: we don't know that. You know, I thought there needed 134 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:47,920 Speaker 2: to be a separation when this team didn't get it 135 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,599 Speaker 2: done and we were gonna come into next year with 136 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,160 Speaker 2: a team that, if we're fair, probably wasn't gonna be 137 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 2: as good. 138 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 1: As this year's team. 139 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 2: Am I wrong? 140 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 1: No? 141 00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 2: So, you know, so I'm more confident about the future 142 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 2: then almost then it seems like some of our fans 143 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 2: are regardless of who we get. But I do think 144 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:10,559 Speaker 2: we need to get somebody good. Who's up next, Bob, Bob? 145 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 4: Go ahead, Bob, Good morning, kass Are. Let's say thanks 146 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 4: to Cal for showing a different side of basketball. But 147 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 4: I had to talk with Edgar last night and he 148 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 4: gave me the lowdown on this thing. 149 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 1: You have to scoop. 150 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 4: Edgar gave me the scoop. 151 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 2: Who's Edgar Casey? 152 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 4: Who's that the prophet sleeping profit? 153 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 2: Okay? What it was like a fact? What did he say? 154 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 4: He said is that statement Cal made about regarding and 155 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 4: UH needs a new voice. He didn't say he wasn't 156 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 4: doing the job. But if you look at Cal's ego, 157 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 4: it's been bruised, stepped on. His legacy is sinking faster 158 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:08,400 Speaker 4: than the Titanic. He's got more money than he can 159 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 4: give away. So I think Mitch had cal kind of 160 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 4: under his foot because he could have wholly done that 161 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:19,880 Speaker 4: job where money didn't mean anything. 162 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, but when Cow's gone, I mean, I honestly, debating 163 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 2: col is kind of in some ways a waste of 164 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 2: time now because he's gone. So now we got to 165 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:32,320 Speaker 2: figure out what's next. So I mean, I I do 166 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 2: think there will be time, and it's good to hear 167 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 2: from you.

They will make him the highest 197 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:13,320 Speaker 2: paid coach in college athletics. Wow, and that includes football. 198 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 2: So if he says no to that, then you just 199 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:20,839 Speaker 2: shake your hand and go, I mean like we did 200 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,080 Speaker 2: all we could do, right, Like there's nothing else you 201 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:26,079 Speaker 2: could do at that point, but they will. You're out 202 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 2: of here, my man. You're not gonna try to beat 203 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:29,680 Speaker 2: us up, are you Okay, good. 204 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 1: You gotta pick up his grandma at the hospital. 205 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:36,640 Speaker 2: God bless your grandma. You Uh, they'll make Danny Hurley 206 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 2: say no. 207 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 1: That that'd be a hard one to turn down. Eleven 208 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 1: and a half million. 209 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 2: And I think they were gonna they were ready to 210 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 2: do this anyway, but they felt like they had a 211 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,320 Speaker 2: better shot with Drew, so you wanted to see what 212 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 2: he did. But now it's all in on Danny Hurley. 213 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,240 Speaker 2: I don't think you'd get in him if it's a yes. 214 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 2: If it's a yes, I don't think it happens today 215 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 2: because they got that parade Saturday. 216 00:10:58,320 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 1: Yes, right, but. 217 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 2: You know this one of those days where no news 218 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:07,840 Speaker 2: is good news. Right. Every minute that goes by where 219 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:09,319 Speaker 2: it's not a no, you feel better. 220 00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 6: Does that make sense? And you took my point. If Hurley, 221 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 6: if he's a no, he's gonna want that no out 222 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 6: there so fast so Yukon fans can enjoy what's ahead 223 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:20,560 Speaker 6: and not be sweating him. But if it's a yes, 224 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 6: he's gonna need everyone to be as quiet as possible 225 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:25,959 Speaker 6: so he can still enjoy that Yukon and then announce 226 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 6: it after the fact. And we all know Mitch operates 227 00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:31,080 Speaker 6: and in the quiet. Anyway, this isn't some college recruitment 228 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 6: where there's whispers going around. I mean, Mitch keeps a 229 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 6: very tight circle, and Hurley has to protect what he 230 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 6: still has going on at Yukon. Whatever they decide. 231 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, A five nine, two, eight oh twenty two eighty seven. 232 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 2: Who's up next? Mike? Mike, go ahead, Mike, Mike. 233 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 3: All right, no, Mike, no, Mike. 234 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:54,559 Speaker 2: Let's try j Jay. What's up? Jay? 235 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 7: Hey? 236 00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:57,680 Speaker 2: I do you have elfan? 237 00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 7: You gotta did a good job keeping everybody entertained. As 238 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 7: far as Scott Drew goes, I kind of figured he 239 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,680 Speaker 7: wasn't gonna come here because they just finished building the house, 240 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:10,080 Speaker 7: and I figured they might be good friends with Chip 241 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 7: and Joanna and they might have an inside skewed. So 242 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 7: I think you all will still get Billy or Curly though. 243 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,679 Speaker 2: I hope. So that would be awesome. I mean, that 244 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:24,840 Speaker 2: would be the one that makes everybody go nuts. We'll 245 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 2: see if it ends up happening. Let me ask you 246 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 2: a question. I appreciate the call and what moment. All right, 247 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 2: let's I didn't entertain this talk because I thought it 248 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 2: was a waste of time. So let's say Hurley and 249 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:45,240 Speaker 2: Donovan both say no, do you call Rick Fatima. 250 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 1: He is getting a lot of support in this town. 251 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,560 Speaker 1: People want him to at least be in the conversation. 252 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 2: Did you really do that? Though you do it for 253 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,560 Speaker 2: two or three years, we don't want something for two 254 00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:58,720 Speaker 2: or three years. You got to do this again. 255 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 1: I'd like to have somebody's come in and just win. 256 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:04,080 Speaker 2: Let me ask you for so you're of a week, 257 00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:06,959 Speaker 2: You're of an age where you would want to do that, right. 258 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:09,160 Speaker 1: I don't think he's on my first tier. But I 259 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 1: think he just should be on your second. 260 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 2: So let me say, let's put it a different way. 261 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 2: Hurley Donovan say no, Now your list is Chris Beard, 262 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 2: Sean Miller. Let's throw Bruce Pearl in there. Let's put 263 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,959 Speaker 2: Rick Patino, Let's put Shaka Smart. You're on that tier 264 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:25,200 Speaker 2: at guys, Tommy Lloyd, you're on that tier at guys. 265 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,520 Speaker 2: Are you really Drew not gonna consider Rick Patino? 266 00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 6: Absolutely not. I mean the Staals would be fun. The 267 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 6: man's seventy one years old. We need a coach that 268 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,080 Speaker 6: is gonna build something that will last. 269 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 2: I can't say even say it's you talk you talk 270 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,679 Speaker 2: about something I can't believe I'm saying say like, I 271 00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:46,520 Speaker 2: ain't gonna say never. 272 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:49,960 Speaker 6: I mean maybe if he's the fiftieth person on the list, 273 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 6: he's not in my top forty nine. Let me finish 274 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 6: my thought at one point, if you're the gold standard, 275 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:58,079 Speaker 6: you cannot get on all four and crawl to Rick Patino. 276 00:13:58,160 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 2: Okay, well let's talk about Well it's not all four. 277 00:13:59,920 --> 00:14:02,320 Speaker 2: He'd be the one crawling here. He wants to come here. 278 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,439 Speaker 2: But let's say, let me give you choices between two guys. 279 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:07,920 Speaker 2: You tell me which one you would take, Chris Beard, 280 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 2: Rick Patino. I'm gonna be most of the other options 281 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:13,960 Speaker 2: in Rick Patino.

I mean, I'm just being That's 510 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 2: that's my view of it. Like you don't. We never 511 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 2: want to be people who harassed or who are mean, 512 00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:43,880 Speaker 2: but we are crazy in a good way. And if 513 00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:46,679 Speaker 2: you can't handle us being crazy in a good way, 514 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 2: then you shouldn't coach here. That's just that's just the reality, 515 00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 2: you know what I mean. It's like why when I 516 00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:58,040 Speaker 2: was visiting law schools, there was when you went to UVA, 517 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 2: they like took you to their parties, and I remember thinking, 518 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:05,800 Speaker 2: not everybody would like this, but I think part of 519 00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:07,960 Speaker 2: it was they wanted, like this is what UVA is. 520 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:09,639 Speaker 2: Are you cool with that? Like is this where you 521 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:11,280 Speaker 2: want to be? Is this what you want to do? 522 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:13,720 Speaker 2: You know, you got to decide, like is this for 523 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,720 Speaker 2: you? You know, when you're a lawyer, one of the things 524 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:18,920 Speaker 2: you do, at least at the very best law firms 525 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:20,600 Speaker 2: in the country, they throw you in and make you 526 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:24,960 Speaker 2: work your asshole for two years and it weeds people 527 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 2: out but from the law firm's perspective, they're like, well, 528 00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 2: if you can't do this, then we don't want you here. 529 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,160 Speaker 1: And that's why it was good that the wife came 530 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,640 Speaker 1: to Lexington, toured the city, got to feel of what 531 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:38,240 Speaker 1: we were all about. Coach Drew got a feeling what 532 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:41,640 Speaker 1: we were all about by eating Mexican restaurant yesterday. 533 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:44,440 Speaker 2: Watch his family feud, watching family, I mean apparently a bay. 534 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:48,440 Speaker 2: So first of all, on the KSR plus site, there's 535 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 2: constant information coming. The good thing about it is they're 536 00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:55,240 Speaker 2: a Baylor people riding as well. And apparently Drew's family 537 00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:58,479 Speaker 2: just did not want to move from Waco. That like, 538 00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:00,920 Speaker 2: they want to be in Waco there, that he's got 539 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:03,919 Speaker 2: a big family and they are all around there and 540 00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:05,640 Speaker 2: so they didn't want to all uproot. 541 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 6: That's completely understandable, completely through your time. We're moving on 542 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:11,560 Speaker 6: and hoping one of the big fish still bite. 543 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:16,240 Speaker 2: Yeah highty seven. One person on the textas see says, 544 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:19,159 Speaker 2: Shannon's gonna laugh at this. I guarantee, all right, Shannon. 545 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:22,199 Speaker 2: Let's see, had we hired Scott Drew, we would have 546 00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:27,920 Speaker 2: the worst men's football and basketball coach hairlines in America. 547 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 3: I don't know if it'd be the worst. I mean, 548 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:33,439 Speaker 3: there's definitely been worse than Scott Drew's Hurleys. 549 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:37,280 Speaker 2: Isn't great? Yeah, well but Dami Hurley, he's gone right. 550 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:39,040 Speaker 2: He made a business decision. 551 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:41,320 Speaker 1: Scott Drew is undefeated at Reparina. 552 00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:43,920 Speaker 2: If people forget that he came out here and beat us, 553 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 2: and Drew and I were came down. We drove down 554 00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:48,119 Speaker 2: there and watched him beat us in a game that 555 00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:52,200 Speaker 2: started at about midnight. Who's up next? Let's go to Zach, Zach. 556 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:52,960 Speaker 2: What's up? Zach? 557 00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:57,680 Speaker 10: Hey, Matt dind you guys, hear me? Yes, yeah, thanks 558 00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:01,000 Speaker 10: for taking the call. A longtime listener, first time Callentucky 559 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:05,200 Speaker 10: natives now living in Virginia. I feel like a lot 560 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 10: of folks are the last few days. Have been trying 561 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:10,160 Speaker 10: to keep track of everything, checking up while I'm at work, 562 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:13,200 Speaker 10: checking up when I get home. Just saw a little 563 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:16,880 Speaker 10: bit ago about Scott Drew, you know, putting his name 564 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:21,600 Speaker 10: out of the running, and so I'll just say I've 565 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:25,080 Speaker 10: been a Donovan Donovan supporter for a long time. You know, 566 00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 10: back in two thousand and nine, I wanted Donovan to come. 567 00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:31,000 Speaker 10: I remember back in the tubby Gillespie days when I 568 00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:33,920 Speaker 10: was an undergrad at Kentucky being in their eruption zone 569 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:36,160 Speaker 10: and watching just Donovan come and turn my pockets inside 570 00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:39,920 Speaker 10: out every time. And so I'm just kind of curious 571 00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:42,439 Speaker 10: listening to you guys talking and talking about everything that 572 00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:44,439 Speaker 10: the guys that are still in play. What do you 573 00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:46,640 Speaker 10: think really needs to happen. What kind of scenario needs 574 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:48,960 Speaker 10: to come about that that brings Donovan here? You know, 575 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 10: I think maybe the third time to be the charm uh. 576 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:54,720 Speaker 2: I think first of all, he needs to finish the 577 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:58,480 Speaker 2: season when he's I mean we we've got He's got 578 00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:03,000 Speaker 2: to finish his NBA season. I know one person that 579 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:06,720 Speaker 2: is very close to Billy Donovan from years years ago 580 00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:10,080 Speaker 2: who tells me that there is no doubt in their 581 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:13,440 Speaker 2: mind Billy will be very interested, but that there's nothing 582 00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:17,199 Speaker 2: he can do until the NBA season is over. And 583 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:21,880 Speaker 2: I think for Kentucky again, Kentucky's view was I got 584 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:24,960 Speaker 2: three candidates. I think Nate Oates, by the way, would 585 00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 2: have been a fourth candidate if he was interested. They said, 586 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:31,400 Speaker 2: we want one of these four, and if we cannot 587 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:33,520 Speaker 2: engage with Billy until the end, we're going to go 588 00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:36,160 Speaker 2: after the others first. So that's why I think they're 589 00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:38,200 Speaker 2: all in on Danny Hurley. But I will say this 590 00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:40,640 Speaker 2: if they get to I think if Danny Hurley gives 591 00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 2: a no, what I think they then do is engage 592 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:48,120 Speaker 2: with the second tier guys. But I would be shocked 593 00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 2: if they hired a coach without making Billy say no. 594 00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 1: I mean football, We did wait for Liam Cohen to 595 00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 1: finish with the playoffs before. 596 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 2: It's a little different. Now we don't have a roster. True, 597 00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 2: we don't have a roster, you know, but but to 598 00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:04,400 Speaker 2: be fair, like John cal Perry doesn't have a roster either, 599 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:06,360 Speaker 2: Like there's a lot of people that don't have a roster. 600 00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:08,640 Speaker 6: So you're getting to the roster building right now. 601 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 2: This is the good thing is there ain't never been 602 00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:14,760 Speaker 2: an easier time to build a roster, right The one 603 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 2: thing about Billy if he were to be interested, if 604 00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:21,960 Speaker 2: Hurleyson know what about a staff like a Scott Pageant, 605 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:24,040 Speaker 2: Oh my, Pelfrey. 606 00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 6: Might get some Kentucky connections on the staff like his. 607 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,480 Speaker 6: The staff he would bring you might we talk about 608 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:31,480 Speaker 6: wanting to keep Reid or someone said earlier this week, 609 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:33,959 Speaker 6: having a Mashburn on the team. What if Billy Donovan 610 00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:35,760 Speaker 6: went out and got some some names we love to 611 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:36,320 Speaker 6: help him out. 612 00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:40,239 Speaker 2: Billy Donovan is a connection to the past. Yes, did 613 00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:43,080 Speaker 2: Jeff did Jeff play? Did Jeff Shepherd play with Billy 614 00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:49,520 Speaker 2: at all? Billy was probably gone when Jeff a year acrossover? 615 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:51,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, let's see, Bill was here for five years. 616 00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:54,800 Speaker 6: Billy left in ninety four, So yeah, Jeff ninety three 617 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 6: ninety four. 618 00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:57,520 Speaker 2: Was this Jeff got here? Jeff played that, he sat 619 00:29:57,560 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 2: out a year, so Jeff was ninety three. We got 620 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:01,440 Speaker 2: here and. 621 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,320 Speaker 6: He would have had one year through recruiting. I'm sure 622 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:08,080 Speaker 6: they know each other. Well, who's next? 623 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 3: Phil? 624 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:16,400 Speaker 2: Phil? Go ahead, Phil Phil. Okay, let's try Derek, Derek, 625 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:17,120 Speaker 2: go ahead, Derek. 626 00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:20,680 Speaker 10: Hey, mag just wanted to say a couple of things. 627 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:21,920 Speaker 5: Uh, yeah, that's. 628 00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:24,800 Speaker 2: Got Drew and it stings, And I'm all in on 629 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 2: Donovan early kind of like that. 630 00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 4: Boy. Els. 631 00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 2: My fear is that Tier two is really scary to me. 632 00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:32,600 Speaker 8: Do you think they go back to Alabama and say 633 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:34,560 Speaker 8: we're willing to pay the buy out of some people. 634 00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:36,760 Speaker 2: Okay, well, let me let me, let me, let's talk. 635 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 2: I want to just I don't mean to be like 636 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:47,000 Speaker 2: the Kentucky Sports motivational speaker. But here's a fact in 637 00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 2: their last four seasons coaching basketball, Okay, coaching basketball, I 638 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 2: would venture to say everyone we have on Tier two 639 00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:58,440 Speaker 2: has won more n c A Tournament games in the 640 00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:05,280 Speaker 2: last four years coaching basket John cal Perry. That's but 641 00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:09,440 Speaker 2: but but that's why I don't understand this idea, this 642 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 2: idea that the world is falling down. You know, I'm 643 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 2: not saying it's falling down. 644 00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:18,440 Speaker 8: I'm saying it's it's I would much rather prefer buying 645 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:19,200 Speaker 8: out Oats. 646 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:22,240 Speaker 2: Is that something that you think they would I do, 647 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 2: But I think the Oats issue. I think the buyout 648 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 2: is part of it. But I don't think it's the 649 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:30,200 Speaker 2: only thing there. I think they're I think there are 650 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:34,640 Speaker 2: some Oats. You know, I don't want to get into it. 651 00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 2: I just think there are some personal things that maybe 652 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:39,520 Speaker 2: keep Oats from from being able to move right now. 653 00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:43,480 Speaker 2: But so like but I you know, I don't I 654 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:45,040 Speaker 2: don't think that's my place to get into to be 655 00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 2: honest with. 656 00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:47,840 Speaker 7: Him, No, that's fair. Like I said, I was just 657 00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:49,640 Speaker 7: curious if you thought they'd go back to Alabama with 658 00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:50,240 Speaker 7: the different team. 659 00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:53,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, well no, I mean they might call him again, 660 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:57,960 Speaker 2: I don't know. I appreciate the call. Here's what I know. 661 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,880 Speaker 2: I know who who was on their top list, and 662 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 2: I know who the coaches were, and I know who 663 00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:07,200 Speaker 2: they contacted, and NATO's was one of them. The only one, 664 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:09,280 Speaker 2: as I told you wanted, there was one to two 665 00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:11,479 Speaker 2: NBA guys. I think one was Freak Vogel and then 666 00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:13,480 Speaker 2: there's one that I've just never been able to figure 667 00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:17,520 Speaker 2: out who it was. But you know, I think they 668 00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:20,760 Speaker 2: looked at this and said, we're gonna do everything in 669 00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:24,040 Speaker 2: our power to get one of these people. Probably half 670 00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:26,360 Speaker 2: of them have now been scratched off, and now you 671 00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:27,880 Speaker 2: keep going with the rest of them. 672 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:30,600 Speaker 1: If the numbers are correct, you're talking about Danny Hurley. 673 00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:33,040 Speaker 1: I mean, they're proven that they're gonna get do whatever 674 00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:34,760 Speaker 1: they can to get one of these top tier guys. 675 00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:39,560 Speaker 2: If Danny Hurley turns Kentucky down, he will be turning 676 00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:48,400 Speaker 2: down the biggest offer in the history of college athletics. No, 677 00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 2: I mean, Jimbo Fishers might have been for more total 678 00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:54,120 Speaker 2: money because it would have been more years. Yeah, but 679 00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:57,920 Speaker 2: in terms of an annual salary, he will be turning 680 00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:01,160 Speaker 2: down the most money any coach is turned down. And 681 00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:03,120 Speaker 2: if he does that, Drew, what else are you supposed 682 00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 2: to do?

If 694 00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:36,440 Speaker 2: Scott Drew, if you take what he said at face value, 695 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:39,560 Speaker 2: and I know Myron Metcalf, I trust Myron as much 696 00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:42,360 Speaker 2: as I trust you, guys.

In the social media era. 742 00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:50,399 Speaker 6: It's constant, constant on our message board. There's like three 743 00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:53,680 Speaker 6: in the morning, people are commenting and asking for updates. 744 00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:55,279 Speaker 6: It's twenty four to seven right now. 745 00:35:57,080 --> 00:36:00,839 Speaker 2: The other people, I really am am and baffled by 746 00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:04,840 Speaker 2: the people who say, you know what an embarrassment for Kentucky. 747 00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:07,000 Speaker 2: Remember how much it was supposed to be a Are 748 00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:10,160 Speaker 2: you an Arkansas fan? No, he's not. You just wearing 749 00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:14,719 Speaker 2: a patrol huh? But I mean, are you gonna cheer 750 00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:19,920 Speaker 2: for Arkansas over Kentucky? Okay, well listen, I'm not gonna 751 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:24,400 Speaker 2: cheer for Arkansas because their rival, but I wish him 752 00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:28,839 Speaker 2: personal happiness. But I do think like I do think 753 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:33,920 Speaker 2: like being like, if you choose cal over Kentucky, if 754 00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:36,680 Speaker 2: you were to do that, then you weren't really a 755 00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:40,600 Speaker 2: Kentucky fan. I mean, let's be real, No, you don't 756 00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:44,480 Speaker 2: choose an individual over the team you've cheered for your 757 00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:49,279 Speaker 2: entire life. Whoever that individual is, right like ever, you know, 758 00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:51,840 Speaker 2: you can still wish the best for him, and I 759 00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:55,160 Speaker 2: actually think it's okay to cheer for him in Arkansas. 760 00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:57,400 Speaker 2: But if you cheer for him over Kentucky, then you 761 00:36:57,400 --> 00:36:59,920 Speaker 2: weren't a Kentucky fan. You just weren't. 762 00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:04,280 Speaker 1: When Tubby left. I wanted Tubby to win all the time, 763 00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:07,040 Speaker 1: but he wasn't playing in our conference. Now that Cow's 764 00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:08,200 Speaker 1: in our conference, I think that makes it. 765 00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:12,200 Speaker 2: You were good friends with Tubby, But if Minnesota played Kentucky, 766 00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:14,759 Speaker 2: who are you gonna cheer for Kentucky? Yeah? That's all 767 00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:18,560 Speaker 2: I'm saying. I mean, I to me, that's like obvious. 768 00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:22,960 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, the program is more important than any individual. 769 00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:25,520 Speaker 6: Oh yeah, I mean I just shouted about not wanting 770 00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:28,840 Speaker 6: Rick Patino, But if we get to ninety eighth option 771 00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:31,400 Speaker 6: then and he's on the sideline. I am a Kentucky 772 00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:33,640 Speaker 6: fan first. I want them to win every game. 773 00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:36,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I and well, I think most people do 774 00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:40,160 Speaker 2: agree with that. Who's up next, Albert, Albert? Go ahead, Albert. 775 00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:43,920 Speaker 5: Yes, I just got a couple of things to say. 776 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:48,400 Speaker 5: How many years you think Mitch Barnhard will be around? 777 00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:53,319 Speaker 2: Not a lot? One or two? Maybe this is what 778 00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:55,600 Speaker 2: I think, And this is just my I don't think 779 00:37:55,640 --> 00:37:58,520 Speaker 2: it'll even be that long. This was my speculation. I 780 00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:00,800 Speaker 2: think part of the reason he didn't want to fire 781 00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:04,799 Speaker 2: Cal is he wanted to go out and let the 782 00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:08,799 Speaker 2: next ad hire their basketball coach. I think that's what 783 00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:13,960 Speaker 2: he wanted. And then I think Cal decided to talk 784 00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:16,319 Speaker 2: to Arkansas and it went away, and so he has 785 00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:18,600 Speaker 2: to do Okay, But I don't think well, on a 786 00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:22,080 Speaker 2: personal level, I don't think Barnhardt's here all that much longer, 787 00:38:22,239 --> 00:38:23,960 Speaker 2: just because I think he's going to retire and go 788 00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 2: do something else. 789 00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:27,799 Speaker 5: Okay, well that's what it kind of led into something 790 00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:30,200 Speaker 5: that Drew doesn't like. That's why I think for me, 791 00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:34,560 Speaker 5: Fatino's probably your perfect fit because if he stays two 792 00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:39,440 Speaker 5: three years longer, then they leave the program, like Bonnhart 793 00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:43,120 Speaker 5: said the other day, with cal Perry course, cal Perry line, 794 00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:45,720 Speaker 5: but they could leave it in good shape. 795 00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:49,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I appreciate the call. I do want 796 00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:52,560 Speaker 2: I want to say something about cal leaving too. I don't. 797 00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:55,960 Speaker 2: I don't wish him it will. But but you know, 798 00:38:57,880 --> 00:39:00,520 Speaker 2: this is a guy who spent his entire career telling players, 799 00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:03,560 Speaker 2: we can't hide you. There's no crying on the yacht. 800 00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:08,760 Speaker 2: This is Kentucky. It's the gold standard. It's different. There expectations. 801 00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:12,720 Speaker 2: He got frustrated that that same thing was then applied 802 00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:15,680 Speaker 2: to him. The same thing he asked of his players 803 00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:18,640 Speaker 2: was then applied to him. Now, if he had stayed here, 804 00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:21,360 Speaker 2: this fan base would have been cheering for him every game. 805 00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:26,480 Speaker 2: But he made the decision to leave. He also violated 806 00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:29,399 Speaker 2: his contract. No one pushed him out the door. If 807 00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:32,799 Speaker 2: they had fired him, that's a different conversation. But they 808 00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:35,440 Speaker 2: did not. Not only did they not fire him, the 809 00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:37,960 Speaker 2: ad set next to him and gave him a public 810 00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:44,200 Speaker 2: affirmation of support. I don't feel sorry for cal He 811 00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:47,439 Speaker 2: made that decision. He did not get pushed out the door. 812 00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:50,080 Speaker 2: This was a guy who if you weren't good enough 813 00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:52,640 Speaker 2: to play here, he would sit you on the bench. Well, 814 00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:56,720 Speaker 2: his production in the last four years was not Kentucky level. 815 00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:01,759 Speaker 2: I'm just I mean, that's just three. He's a great man, 816 00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:05,960 Speaker 2: but that we can he chose to talk to Arkansas, 817 00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:09,160 Speaker 2: and if you believe the reports, let's not skip over 818 00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:11,120 Speaker 2: the report that he tried to reach out to Ohio 819 00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:16,200 Speaker 2: State in February during the season. Don't skip over that. 820 00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:19,799 Speaker 2: When you like, we were going for a title. We 821 00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:22,920 Speaker 2: were built for Martians, we were built from March, and 822 00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:24,120 Speaker 2: he talked to Ohio State. 823 00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:25,839 Speaker 1: He was looking to walk out the door. 824 00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:32,560 Speaker 2: So I don't feel sorry for it, and I think 825 00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:35,520 Speaker 2: we have to focus on the future.
