Speaker 2: your time to chat with us. How are things going

26
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:22,240
Speaker 2: over at the facility today?

27
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:24,680
Speaker 3: They're going really good, really well.

28
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:26,480
Speaker 4: We just got out of meetings, had a good lift

29
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:27,880
Speaker 4: earlier too, so it was great.

30
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:28,759
Speaker 3: Thank you for having me.

31
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:31,840
Speaker 2: Of course, very excited to talk to you. You played

32
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 2: a lot as a freshman and sophomore every game, I believe,

33
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:37,440
Speaker 2: and now you're only going into your third year, but

34
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:39,920
Speaker 2: it feels like you're one of the vets. Are you

35
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 2: taking on a leadership role with all these new players

36
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:44,040
Speaker 2: on the team and taking them under your wing, even

37
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 2: though it's only going to be your third year.

38
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:47,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, most definitely.

39
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,280
Speaker 4: I feel like last year that was the one thing

40
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 4: Coach White said he felt like I led by example

41
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 4: a lot, even going back to my freshman year. But

42
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:56,400
Speaker 4: he said this year, coming into this year, that he

43
00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 4: wants to see me be more of a vocal leader.

44
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 4: So that's what I've been trying to do and like

45
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 4: you said, kind of just teach the young guys, but

46
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 4: also kind of guide the older guys that are just

47
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 4: now getting into our program.

48
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 2: You and some of your teammates in spring interviews and

49
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 2: even at the end of last season mentioned that towards

50
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 2: the end of last year, things kind of lightened up

51
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:15,920
Speaker 2: in the weight room, maybe weren't up to the standard

52
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 2: regarding work ethic as the season went on. How is

53
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 2: the accountability behind the scenes now in springball and you

54
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,640
Speaker 2: using that leadership to get things on the right track.

55
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 4: I feel like now everybody's on the same page. I mean,

56
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:30,920
Speaker 4: there's no hiccups. Everybody is on the same page. We

57
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 4: know what to where. I mentioned last year how there

58
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:35,880
Speaker 4: was a time where it kind of, like like you said,

59
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,080
Speaker 4: just kind of just got lected Daysico, we were just

60
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 4: coming in there with whatever. It's not like that at

61
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,639
Speaker 4: all anymore this year. So I feel like steps like

62
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 4: that is what's going to lead us to just have

63
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:45,080
Speaker 4: a good year this year.

64
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 2: You've got over thirty new faces on the roster. I

65
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,640
Speaker 2: believe lots of new people in the building. Are what

66
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 2: are some of the things that go on behind the scenes,

67
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 2: not just on the field or in the weight room,

68
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 2: but just to get to know everyone and get the

69
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,079
Speaker 2: team building going. Son, you have that camaraderie as the

70
00:02:59,160 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 2: year goes on.

71
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 4: Honestly, I give a lot of credit to Coachhould. He's

72
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 4: put together a great team events where we have to

73
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:07,520
Speaker 4: sit there and it's mandatory we have to sit there,

74
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:09,640
Speaker 4: and we have to learn each other. Obviously, you're gonna

75
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:12,079
Speaker 4: learn about your position group because you're with them every day,

76
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:14,679
Speaker 4: but just going above and beyond and just getting to

77
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 4: learn other people. We've done this Championship Challenge type of

78
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,639
Speaker 4: deal where we had nine or eight teams and there

79
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 4: was team captains, two for each team, and we had

80
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,359
Speaker 4: a draft, and that's a great way just to get

81
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:28,000
Speaker 4: to know people, get to know their skill sets, what

82
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:29,919
Speaker 4: they're comfortable doing and what they're not comfortable doing.

83
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 3: And right now we're currently in a.

84
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 4: Phrase phase called breaking Bread where it's like you get

85
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 4: partnered with somebody, you have to go find them and

86
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 4: ask them a series of questions just to get to

87
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 4: know them. And after practice it's randomly selected coach calls

88
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 4: up two people and you got to tell them about

89
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 4: your partner.

90
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 3: And I feel like that that's really good.

91
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 5: It's cool, ty Adam Luckett here. I know that team

92
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,560
Speaker 5: building has a big been a big emphasis for coach Stoops.

93
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 5: I believe they they even said that they're doing kind

94
00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 5: of where your position coach will take all out the dinner,

95
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 5: y'all for dinner or whatnot. Now, with spring practicing wrapping

96
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 5: up and you've gotten to actually practice real football practice

97
00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 5: with your new teammates and with all this team building

98
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 5: stuff going on, do you see that that stuff you're

99
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 5: all doing off the field, do you see as as

100
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:16,040
Speaker 5: compared to your last two years, do you see that

101
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 5: paying off when you're out there practicing and going through

102
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 5: actual football activities with your teammates and coaches.

103
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:24,240
Speaker 3: Yes, sir, definitely.

104
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,480
Speaker 4: But I feel like with anything, it's a it's a

105
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 4: learning experience. So just going out there and you know,

106
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:32,560
Speaker 4: continue just to build the chemistry every single day, because

107
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 4: right now we don't have to have a chemistry a

108
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 4: huntred and ten percent, but in the fall we do.

109
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 4: So it's just just continue just to build that chemistry

110
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,320
Speaker 4: with the team. But I mean, I do feel like

111
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:44,760
Speaker 4: the chemistry that we have on this team as special

112
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 4: and I'm looking forward to see what we do in

113
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:48,119
Speaker 4: the fall I've heard you mentioned.

114
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 2: Is it called the Superstars competition something like that you

115
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 2: are kind of playing as part of this team building.

116
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,000
Speaker 2: What's an example of something you all will go through

117
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 2: other than you know, Lucky just mentioned having the dinners

118
00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:58,560
Speaker 2: and things. But what do you all, yeah, is the

119
00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 2: basketball goal still out there doing some other have to

120
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:03,479
Speaker 2: field activities to keep you all getting close?

121
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 4: Yes, most definitely, so the basketball goal is still in

122
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 4: our indoor. Just to take you through a little bit,

123
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 4: we started off the day we came in. We had dodgeball.

124
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 4: As soon as you lose, you're out.

125
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,280
Speaker 3: You know, you got to support the teams that are

126
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 3: still in. After that, we went over there and we

127
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 3: did hot.

128
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 4: Shots, whereas where you get to pick the location that

129
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:22,160
Speaker 4: you shoot the ball.

130
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:23,840
Speaker 3: You could either do a layup for I think it.

131
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,479
Speaker 4: Was one point, a free throw for two, and then

132
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 4: a three pointer for three points, and you get to

133
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:30,440
Speaker 4: shoot four minutes straight.

134
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 3: After that, I think we went to tugle War.

135
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 4: We did another basketball Challenge knockout, and then we got

136
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,640
Speaker 4: into team competitions, which it was like, uh, dodgeball was

137
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 4: the team's competition, tugle war, and then we did a

138
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:45,560
Speaker 4: sled racing competition, and that was pretty fun.

139
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:47,440
Speaker 3: My team ended up walking away with the devil with

140
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,120
Speaker 3: that one, so that's always fun. But and then.

141
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:51,920
Speaker 4: Lastly we finished off or we did push ups and

142
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 4: set up as well, and then we finished off with

143
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,400
Speaker 4: an eating competition, and it's always fun just to see

144
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:58,800
Speaker 4: everybody just you know, try to munch.

145
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 3: Down on the donuts and stuff like that. It was

146
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:00,960
Speaker 3: a good time.

147
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 2: Well, I wasn't gonna go this direction with the interview,

148
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 2: but I have to know who would be the first

149
00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:06,919
Speaker 2: pick in tug of war and who would be the

150
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:08,400
Speaker 2: first pick in the eating competition.

151
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:09,360
Speaker 6: Who are the stars there?

152
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 3: I'm trying to think who won, uh tug of war

153
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:18,240
Speaker 3: for me? M trying to think.

154
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:20,479
Speaker 6: One of the linemen.

155
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:23,640
Speaker 3: Uh, yeah, it's definitely gonna be one the one the lineman.

156
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 4: I'm trying to think it's either probably gonna be Jagger

157
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:30,280
Speaker 4: for me or uh probably Jagger.

158
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,480
Speaker 2: Honestly, I saw Jagger at the open practice. He's put

159
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 2: on some weight, so I believe you on that. Getting

160
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:38,840
Speaker 2: back to football, we we've only gotten one small peak

161
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:41,080
Speaker 2: of the team at a at a short practice last week,

162
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:42,680
Speaker 2: so we're gonna need you to give us some scoop.

163
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,559
Speaker 2: Have there been any head turning moments or any wow

164
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:47,960
Speaker 2: plays and scrimmage that have happened so far that would

165
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,359
Speaker 2: make a highlight reel of springball that none of us

166
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:51,040
Speaker 2: got to see.

167
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:52,839
Speaker 3: Definitely.

168
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:54,719
Speaker 4: Uh, First of all, I want to say, I believe

169
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 4: that j Q Hardaway number six has taken great step,

170
00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:58,160
Speaker 4: Like he's taking a huge step.

171
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:00,839
Speaker 3: Man. I'm excited to see what he does during the fall.

172
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:03,560
Speaker 4: He's had amazing days, he's back days, and he's gotten

173
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:05,760
Speaker 4: way better. I feel like us as a dB corps,

174
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:09,360
Speaker 4: we've gotten way better and it's exciting just to see it. Also,

175
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 4: somebody who's been turning heads as freshman, DJ Miller. He's

176
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:16,000
Speaker 4: made a lot of great plays these past couple of days,

177
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:17,440
Speaker 4: So I'm excited to see.

178
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 3: What he does and what he involved evolves into.

179
00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:23,640
Speaker 4: But yeah, I mean there's been definitely great plays by everybody,

180
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 4: But I mean, if I'm being honest, those two the

181
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:26,440
Speaker 4: one who stands out to me the most.

182
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:27,400
Speaker 3: Oh.

183
00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 4: Also, also uh, Mike Keith Mike Keith Grace, He's gone

185
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:38,320
Speaker 4: it's been fun and exciting to see him.

186
00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:39,640
Speaker 5: And Tip if you were just gonna You know, you

187
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:41,360
Speaker 5: could talk to the fan base right now through us.

188
00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 5: If you were just gonna tell the fans why they should,

189
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:46,480
Speaker 5: why they should embrace your alls team, and why this

190
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:48,360
Speaker 5: is gonna be a good year for for you all.

191
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 5: What would you tell them.

192
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:52,520
Speaker 4: I would tell them that we've put in a lot

193
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 4: of work and we've turned a lot of things around.

194
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 3: We do have a lot of new faces.

195
00:07:57,080 --> 00:08:00,400
Speaker 4: But we take the proper steps to uh gonna make

196
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,800

00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:07,240
Speaker 4: down for us, be with us through it all.

199
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 3: And last year it.

200
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,080
Speaker 4: Definitely was a low moment for all of us, not

201
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:12,960
Speaker 4: just them, for us to I mean, we had to

202
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:14,960
Speaker 4: live the moment. They did too, but you know, we're

203
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 4: out there playing and stuff like that. But you know,

204
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 4: continue just stay loyal to us, and this year we're

205
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 4: gonna make them proud. We're gonna make them happy. They're

206
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 4: going to leave Kroger Fields or watch the games it's

207
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 4: on away game, and they're going to be happy with

208
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:27,800
Speaker 4: what we do on Saturdays.

209
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 2: What are your personal goals for the season, just you

210
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,079
Speaker 2: at your position and then as the team. If you're

211
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,080
Speaker 2: writing down what you want to accomplish, What are some

212
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:37,600
Speaker 2: examples of what you'd like to get done next season.

213
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 4: So I do have personal goals, but I kind of

214
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,800
Speaker 4: just keep that to myself. That's just something I've always

215
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 4: done my whole life. And then because I feel like

216
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:49,319
Speaker 4: with my faith, I just feel like whatever is meant

217
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:51,880
Speaker 4: to happen is going to happen regardless for the team.

218
00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,719
Speaker 4: Though we do want to go to the SEC Championship,

219
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:56,560
Speaker 4: we do want to go to the playoffs, make a

220
00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:59,439
Speaker 4: deep run in that hopefully win a national championship.

221
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 2: And yeah, and this Saturday, fans can get their first

222
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,960
Speaker 2: look at the team at the Spring Showcase out at Kroger.

223
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 6: Field at ten am.

224
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:11,040
Speaker 2: You're looking forward to kind of practicing and playing in

225
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 2: front of some people that aren't just the teams and coaches,

226
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 2: get the fans in the buildings start to feel that.

227
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:17,600
Speaker 4: Again, Yes, sir, of course, I feel like when fans

228
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,120
Speaker 4: get involved, that's when energy comes as well. So I mean,

229
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:22,559
Speaker 4: if you do something bad, you're going to hear it

230
00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:24,079
Speaker 4: from the fans. If you do something good, you're going

231
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,320
Speaker 4: to hear it from the fans. So I definitely do

232
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:29,240
Speaker 4: I think that fans they bring energy and also just

233
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,320
Speaker 4: like afterwards, when you know you get to sit there

234
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 4: and sign little kids stuff and giving.

235
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:34,839
Speaker 3: Them things because once upon a time I was that

236
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:35,439
Speaker 3: little kid.

237
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,240
Speaker 4: So I just feel like, you know, it's only right

238
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 4: that you just show love, and for me, it's giving

239
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:40,760
Speaker 4: back to my community.

240
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:43,320
Speaker 2: Very cool, What a great way to in that. Thanks

241
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:45,320
Speaker 2: for taking time out of your busy morning to chat

242
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,200
Speaker 2: with us. We look forward to seeing you. It's on Saturday,

243
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:49,640
Speaker 2: and we really look forward to next fall when it

244
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 2: all gets started for real.

245
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:52,800
Speaker 6: But thank you for your time today.

246
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 3: Yes, sorry, thank you.

247
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:57,160
Speaker 2: Have a nice day, you too, appreciate it. Lucky, I

248
00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 2: like that some of the players he said to watch.

249
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,160
Speaker 2: I think we're identical to what you said to start

250
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 2: the show. Did you entire coordinate this interview before you

251
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:05,360
Speaker 2: joined me a chast bar today, Drew.

252
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:06,720
Speaker 5: First of all, I got to point out, I just

253
00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 5: appreciate that I didn't have a screeching noise in my

254
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:14,840
Speaker 5: ears and my headset after last year's malfunction when we

255
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:15,240
Speaker 5: had Dion.

256
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:18,440
Speaker 2: That's right, you were here when Dion called in and

257
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:20,720
Speaker 2: everything all hell broke loose. The next thing I know,

258
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:22,600
Speaker 2: I'm was standing out by sonic.

259
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:25,560
Speaker 5: He was on the sonic roof with an antenna with

260
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:28,680
Speaker 5: the a satellite this trying to get service. So that

261
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:29,760
Speaker 5: was definitely definitely different.

262
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 6: Thanks for that memory. I'd forgotten that.

263
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,880
Speaker 5: Most interesting part of that to me, honestly is the

264
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,560
Speaker 5: ty Bryant I don't want to talk about individual goals.

265
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:39,840
Speaker 5: He's not the first one that says that there's been

266
00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:42,360
Speaker 5: a handful Mark stoops. Instead, he doesn't want to talk

267
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 5: about individual players. There is very much a where they've

268
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 5: kind of sold team mindset. We're all in this together,

269
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:53,880
Speaker 5: we're all pulling on the same rope. To me, that

270
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 5: has been one of my bigger takeaways from the spring

271
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,960
Speaker 5: is that it's not just one, it's a whole collect

272
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,520
Speaker 5: of them not getting into into that they to me,

273
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 5: that's been a clear kind of focus area for them.

274
00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:08,080
Speaker 5: So that was to me of the interview that was

275
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:10,880
Speaker 5: the biggest takeaway. And the end again, I think he

276
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:12,640
Speaker 5: mentioned some players that they need to be good players

277
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 5: and JQ Hardaway is a guy they need it took

278
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:17,719
Speaker 5: a big step next year. They need him to take

279
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:20,160
Speaker 5: a bigger step, and he's in line really to be

280
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 5: you know, they kind of got a quietly kind of

281
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:25,240
Speaker 5: a pipeline of draft picks at Corner Building. He looks

282
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:26,920
Speaker 5: like a guy that could potentially be the next one.

283
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:28,600
Speaker 6: Also like he doesn't shy away.

284
00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:30,760
Speaker 2: And the other teammates have been this week too way

285
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:33,199
Speaker 2: too about admitting that last year they dropped the ball,

286
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 2: especially late in the season. Just kind of seems like

287
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:37,640
Speaker 2: guys were doing what they weren't wanted to do and

288
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,319
Speaker 2: weren't meeting the standard and putting in the one hundred

289
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 2: percent work they needed to. They have not shot away

290
00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:44,320
Speaker 2: and admitting that and saying that needed to change, and

291
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:45,679
Speaker 2: it you know, all they can do.

292
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 6: Is talk about it right now.

293
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:48,160
Speaker 2: We're not over there to see the results, but it

294
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 2: sounds like behind the scenes they're they're trying to get

295
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:51,240
Speaker 2: back what they need to be.

296
00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:52,920
Speaker 7: And it's a kid that cares, right. I mean, he's

297
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:55,800
Speaker 7: from Lexington, his dad played at Kentucky. I mean, if

298
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 7: anybody is gonna feel their pride test, and it's going

299
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:00,560
Speaker 7: to be somebody that cares about the UNIF as much

300
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:01,719
Speaker 7: as a guy like ty Bryant does.

301
00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:03,720
Speaker 8: So I'm excited to see him continue to flourish.

302
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:05,600
Speaker 7: And I mean that's a guy that hasn't missed any

303
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 7: games at him. I mean, he's stayed healthy and have

304
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:08,760
Speaker 7: been a good addition for Kentucky.

305
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:10,880
Speaker 5: Well, he was a guy we talked about Travis Perry

306
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 5: kind of getting forced into the lineup. Yeah, it's true.

307
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:14,880
Speaker 5: Feshman season, they had a bunch of injuries at safety.

308
00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:17,800
Speaker 5: He had to play a lot when it was unexpected.

309
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:20,199
Speaker 5: And now you fast forward year three, he's played a

310
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,040
Speaker 5: lot of snaps and he's gonna be a key call

311
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:24,520
Speaker 5: And even heard him talk Brad White said he talked

312
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 5: to Tye It's like, I need you to be a

313
00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 5: leader on this team, and he's trying to do that.

314
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 5: And he's a guy. You know, these are specific type

315
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:32,840
Speaker 5: of players local that you got to hit on and

316
00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:35,360
Speaker 5: that you need to be leaders. It's easier, I think

317
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,079
Speaker 5: for a kid like him, who's grown up here, who

318
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:40,040
Speaker 5: has a connect tide of the program from you know,

319
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:42,920
Speaker 5: his dad played here, it's easier for him to I think,

320
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,959
Speaker 5: get easier to have a player like that being a

321
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,880
Speaker 5: leadership type role. And that's something that they need to

322
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 5: have and he needs to be kind of a backbone

323
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:52,440
Speaker 5: piece for them this year on defense.

324
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:54,959
Speaker 2: And I feel a personal connection to him because I'll

325
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:58,120
Speaker 2: live next to the Douglas Stadium, and uh, I know

326
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 2: their their playlist in the morning when they're I remember

327
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:02,679
Speaker 2: when Ty was over there. I watched a lot of

328
00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:04,960
Speaker 2: his games in his last season, so you know, I

329
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:07,360
Speaker 2: feel connection to the farm and all the Douglas Broncos.

330
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:10,040
Speaker 2: So I'm rooting for him and Jager just as much

331
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,720
Speaker 2: as anyone on that team. You know, spring football in

347
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:54,600
Speaker 6: I fumbled it a little bit.

348
00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,040
Speaker 2: I was gonna do the spring thing there and I

349
00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:59,400
Speaker 2: kind of got my words tied. But you know whatever,

350
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,719
Speaker 2: I'm getting exact. On day four, Drip Losa, I did

351
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 2: get my corn bread hemp in yesterday, my own personal supply,

352
00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:07,080
Speaker 2: so I took one of those last night. I can't

353
00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 2: recommend them enough, and I can't recommend enough. Sticking with

354
00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:12,000
Speaker 2: us for a couple more segments, got Billy Adam lucking here.

355
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 2: We got more football to talk, more masters to talk.

356
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:16,400
Speaker 2: We want to hear from you on the Clark's Pumping

357
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:18,320
Speaker 2: Shop phone line, and we will be right back right

358
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 2: after this. Welcome back to Kentucky Sports Radio. Rick playing

359
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:25,080
Speaker 2: the Hits. Rick, It's been a fun week with you

360
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 2: so far. Usually I don't get to communicate with you

361
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,680
Speaker 2: that much, but you've been a big help getting these interviews, books,

362
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:31,440
Speaker 2: get me my scripts.

363
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:32,760
Speaker 6: I've enjoyed working with you.

364
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:35,200
Speaker 2: Through four days. We got one more tomorrow. Brother, all right,

365
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:37,440
Speaker 2: maybe this will just be the future. Those guys can

366
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:40,560
Speaker 2: stay on vacation, Drew, Rick, Billy, we can keep this

367
00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:42,640
Speaker 2: thing going. But right now we're gonna keep it going

368
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:44,760
Speaker 2: with Adam Luckett. He's joining us today, made the trip

369
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:46,720
Speaker 2: from Louisville to be a part of the show. We're

370
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 2: talking about the Masters. We're watching the Masters. Just had

371
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 2: a good conversation with Todd Bryant. As this leaderboard starts to,

372
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:54,880
Speaker 2: you know, get some names moving around. I guess I

373
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:57,280
Speaker 2: should get your official master's picks before you can cheat

374
00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:00,840
Speaker 2: and see who's started. Well, who did you all lucky?

375
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:02,680
Speaker 2: I know you did your luck. It's locks post on

376
00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:06,080
Speaker 2: KSR plus yesterday. Can you reveal maybe who you put

377
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 2: a little dabbled on who to win?

378
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:09,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, definitely check that out. We've got all kinds of

379
00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:11,920
Speaker 5: wagers and all kinds of stuff on there, so definitely

380
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:15,600
Speaker 5: check that out KSR plus. But this this tournament was

381
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:17,480
Speaker 5: made for more Kywa. It's only a matter of time

382
00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:19,400
Speaker 5: before he wins it. So he was my pickup with

383
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 5: sixteen to one. You could have got him pre and

384
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:23,600
Speaker 5: you can still get me now if you want to

385
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:25,040
Speaker 5: get on there. There's still have a lot of odds

386
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:26,880
Speaker 5: up now. But yeah, more Kyle is my pick. I

387
00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:29,920
Speaker 5: think he's been top ten consecutive Masters. He is the

388
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 5: best iron player in golf. This is an iron tournament.

389
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 5: Second shot tournament. So more Kyle is my pick.

390
00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:37,880
Speaker 7: Golf guards want let more Kawa win. All the complaining

391
00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:40,240
Speaker 7: he's been doing about the media, Oh, don't interview me

392
00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:45,920
Speaker 7: after I lose. I love doing top tens instead of Yeah,

393
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 7: kind of opens up the field a little bit more. Drew,

394
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 7: you've mentioned you've already been on Oberg. I mean, he's

395
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 7: been on fire. I don't see a world in which

396
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:54,680
Speaker 7: he doesn't finish.

397
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 8: In the top ten.

398
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:57,600
Speaker 7: And I didn't want to bet on Scottie, but Rory,

399
00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 7: I mean, if he doesn't win the Masters this year

400
00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:01,680
Speaker 7: and deplete the Grand Slam, he may never I mean,

401
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,320
Speaker 7: he is playing some of his best golf and look,

402
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:06,040
Speaker 7: I mean, I'm sure he's feeling the pressure.

403
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:07,880
Speaker 8: So I'm all in on Rory this year.

404
00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:09,960
Speaker 7: And I dabbled in a couple more top tens, but

405
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:12,560
Speaker 7: Oberg was really the one I circled for the most part.

406
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:12,960
Speaker 3: Yeah.

407
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:15,040
Speaker 2: I went to Sweden with a Oldberg bet. He's one

408
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 2: of my favorite golfers. Got him at seventeen to one.

409
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:20,600
Speaker 2: Also did Koepka at thirty to one, and I have

410
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 2: to do posting at two hundred to one, you know,

411
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 2: very unlikely, but I'm rooting for the guy, and I

412
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:27,120
Speaker 2: hope if he wins it big, I can win a

413
00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:29,520
Speaker 2: little bit big too. Also, I did a make the

414
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:32,080
Speaker 2: cut parlay on DraftKings Crown of Yours, go get your

415
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:34,240
Speaker 2: Master's bet in. But I picked five players to make

416
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:38,800
Speaker 2: the cut at plus four hundred, posting Batilla, Straka, Thomas,

417
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:39,360
Speaker 2: and Schoffling.

418
00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:41,400
Speaker 6: So see if that pays out.

419
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:41,840
Speaker 5: Billy.

420
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:44,200
Speaker 2: Let's talk a little more Masters about last year, because

421
00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 2: we had a very unique Monday. Last Monday of the Masters,

422
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,800
Speaker 2: I was there and you cannot take your phone in.

423
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:56,360
Speaker 2: So at seven am, I parked my car, called my wife,

424
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,720
Speaker 2: said if an emergency happens, good luck. I won't talk

425
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:02,680
Speaker 2: to you into about eight pm, turned my phone completely off,

426
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:04,480
Speaker 2: threw my glove box, locked the car.

427
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:05,720
Speaker 6: And went into the golf course.

428
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:09,240
Speaker 2: A few hours later, John Cali Perry left the University

429
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:12,399
Speaker 2: of Kentucky. There were reports of Arkansas. All hell's breaking

430
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:16,000
Speaker 2: loose in BBN. Our website's going crazy. You actually had

431
00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:18,800
Speaker 2: to host the show with Matt because Ryan and was

432
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:19,520
Speaker 2: Shannon off too.

433
00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:20,560
Speaker 8: Shannon was not there.

434
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,160
Speaker 2: Look these big vacation guys. I took one day off.

435
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:25,680
Speaker 2: I took one Monday and the one day I took

436
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:29,239
Speaker 2: off is when everything went chaotic. But for me, it

437
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:32,600
Speaker 2: was such a real, a surreal day walking around that

438
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:35,360
Speaker 2: course because I had a good indication the night before

439
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:37,879
Speaker 2: I had been reported. I knew that it was coming,

440
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,359
Speaker 2: but I could not follow it. I had random people

441
00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:42,680
Speaker 2: on the golf course chasing me down. People from Kentucky

442
00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:43,359
Speaker 2: that listened.

443
00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:43,400
Speaker 6: To the show.

444
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:45,320
Speaker 2: They're like, Drew, what are you hearing? Like, I'm not

445
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 2: hearing anything. I'm here with you with empty pockets. But

446
00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:52,960
Speaker 2: it was the anniversary of the John Cally John Caliperry departure.

447
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:56,120
Speaker 2: When I get to my phone in my cards now

448
00:17:56,320 --> 00:18:00,760
Speaker 2: about eight pm, soun's going down. I call Abby and

449
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:02,919
Speaker 2: I'm like, just give me the rundown. First of all,

450
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:04,920
Speaker 2: I had so many texts it was unbelievab. I couldn't

451
00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:08,240
Speaker 2: even answer them because, like I said, absolute chaos everywhere.

452
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:10,760
Speaker 2: And she's trying to catch me up on everything. And

453
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:12,800
Speaker 2: I remember her being like, and he's on the news

454
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:15,880
Speaker 2: walking his dog and a stroller. And I'm standing outside

455
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:18,040
Speaker 2: the gate in Augusta and I just yell, what do

456
00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:20,520
Speaker 2: you mean he's walking his dog and a stroller? Like,

457
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:22,560
Speaker 2: what in the hell have I missed today being gone

458
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 2: for thirteen hours, but you know you were a big

459
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:26,560
Speaker 2: part of the show and you helped you break it

460
00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:27,560
Speaker 2: all down with Matt that day.

461
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:29,440
Speaker 8: Surprise, your phone still worked when you got back.

462
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 6: It was I've never seen anything like that.

463
00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:34,280
Speaker 7: It was smoking or it probably was delayed a little bit.

464
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:36,080
Speaker 7: That was an all time moment for Billy R.

465
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:36,439
Speaker 8: Sports.

466
00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:38,880
Speaker 7: I mean, he got the call from the bullpen late

467
00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:41,600
Speaker 7: Sunday night, knowing Drew wasn't gonna be there. All the

468
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:44,720
Speaker 7: TV cameras are setting up and incorrectly titling my name.

469
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:46,439
Speaker 7: I think actually that was Stephen Peak that did that

470
00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:49,879
Speaker 7: on the YouTube channel. But anyway, that was such an

471
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:53,199
Speaker 7: interesting week, and you already mentioned the cow walking his

472
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:56,080
Speaker 7: dogs on Richmond Road and just how bizarre that was.

473
00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:58,119
Speaker 7: We may have had more listeners that day and that

474
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:01,199
Speaker 7: week than ever Andrew there, He couldn't even look at

475
00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:02,840
Speaker 7: his phone to figure out what was going on.

476
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:04,480
Speaker 8: It was a surreal week.

477
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:06,199
Speaker 7: It was also a week where I told a listener

478
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:08,560
Speaker 7: to show up if he disagreed with my opinion, and

479
00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 7: he did.

480
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:12,280
Speaker 6: Yeah, You're on fire that week, challenging listeners to fight.

481
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:13,240
Speaker 8: He was complaining.

482
00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:15,400
Speaker 7: I was like, look do something about it show up

483
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:17,720
Speaker 7: and then he did, but he didn't say anything event

484
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:20,400
Speaker 7: so that didn't come to fruition at all. But yeah,

485
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:22,840
Speaker 7: Big Week and Billy r sports lore and it was

486
00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 7: all because Drew was gone.

487
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,320
Speaker 5: Ksar could have our own Rough and Rowdy with Billy.

488
00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 6: And the listener, no kidding. That guy was big, right,

489
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:28,760
Speaker 6: you didn't want that smoke?

490
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:29,399
Speaker 5: He was big.

491
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:31,600
Speaker 7: And then I'm sure you know that they tried to

492
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:33,080
Speaker 7: get me in Shannon to fight at Rough and Rowdy

493
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:33,880
Speaker 7: all those years ago.

494
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:35,000
Speaker 8: Had to back out.

495
00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:37,119
Speaker 2: They just got in a car act Billy over here

496
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:40,320
Speaker 2: fighting all the time. I had just gotten into Georgia

497
00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:43,000
Speaker 2: and parked my car with my good friends Kent and Manny,

498
00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:45,480
Speaker 2: ready to have a good couple of days there. And

499
00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:48,400
Speaker 2: we're sitting at Hooters of all places, I want to say,

500
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,880
Speaker 2: we're watching Bill and shout out John Daily. I think

501
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:55,080
Speaker 2: we were watching the Women's Championship that would have been

502
00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:57,159
Speaker 2: on Sunday. Yeah, we were watching the Women's Championship. And

503
00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,040
Speaker 2: I get a text from someone who would know and

504
00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,280
Speaker 2: they said, buckle up, it's about to be a bumpy road.

505
00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:03,320
Speaker 2: And at that time the cow stuff wasn't really out,

506
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:05,240
Speaker 2: and I sent back. What are you talking about? Is

507
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:08,320
Speaker 2: this related to John Caliperry? Because I just left Kentucky

508
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:11,080
Speaker 2: and I'm off no answer. Then the night goes on,

509
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:12,920
Speaker 2: and then it starts to leak out and I even

510
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:15,640
Speaker 2: consider its like do I drive back? You know this

511
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:17,119
Speaker 2: is gonna be one of the biggest shows ever. And

512
00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:19,560
Speaker 2: I'm not there, and Ryn's off in Panama City. But

513
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:21,360
Speaker 2: I've got my two friends with me. You know, they're

514
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:22,679
Speaker 2: not riding back with me so I can do a

515
00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 2: radio show. And I called Matt like, I don't know

516
00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 2: what you want me to do. I got a ticket

517
00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:28,960
Speaker 2: to golf tomorrow or I can't take my phone. And

518
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,679
Speaker 2: that's that's where they called you in and you and

519
00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:32,960
Speaker 2: Matt had quite the morning there.

520
00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:35,399
Speaker 7: Well, we had just gotten the video of Mitch and

521
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:38,359
Speaker 7: cow speaking with was it lex eighteen and how they.

522
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 5: Were they farmer?

523
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:40,840
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, everybody was gonna get back together. I mean

524
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 8: it was just about about working to a common goal again.

525
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:45,080
Speaker 8: And then this happened.

526
00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:49,120
Speaker 5: Crazy week for the group Chats back then crazy week

527
00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:51,399
Speaker 5: for the group Chats felt like we I know you

528
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:52,919
Speaker 5: were gone when you got back, felt like we were

529
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:55,719
Speaker 5: working for twenty one hours on the website when all

530
00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 5: that stuff was going on in the hiring process. Well

531
00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 5: then crazy time. That was our first real coaching search.

532
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:04,280
Speaker 5: Yeah right, Like we haven't had a coaching search since really,

533
00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:07,520
Speaker 5: you know, Twitter was kind of around with Mark Stoops,

534
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:10,360
Speaker 5: wasn't really around with Mcallis hired. That was our first

535
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 5: coaching search through Twitter.

536
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:13,359
Speaker 7: That's why I wanted to bring up I mean, Scott

537
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:16,280
Speaker 7: Drew in the Mexican restaurant in Waco. We had Dan

538
00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:18,760
Speaker 7: Hurley come to Lexington and decline the job, and then

539
00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:21,359
Speaker 7: it was late Thursday night we get the call about

540
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,080
Speaker 7: Pope and then that surreal Friday morning where all the

541
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:26,160
Speaker 7: opinions change in about a two hour span.

542
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 6: And I wouldn't have taken off if actually, yeah, I

543
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:28,520
Speaker 6: would have.

544
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:30,240
Speaker 2: It was the Masters. I probably still had taken off,

545
00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:32,480
Speaker 2: Like you said, they had just done the No he's staying,

546
00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:34,920
Speaker 2: I'm like, well, surely I can leave for a Monday.

547
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:38,160
Speaker 2: I mean I was only off a Monday. No, absolute chaos.

548
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:39,960
Speaker 2: The only reason I got to go to the Masters

549
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,520
Speaker 2: is my good friend Aaron Fleeener, who's probably making the

550
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:44,720
Speaker 2: turn right now with the bag on his shoulder. He

551
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 2: met me and Pittsburgh to have a full four day

552
00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:50,280
Speaker 2: weekend of the NCAA tournament. We had big plans on

553
00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 2: that Friday, after Kentucky's first round game. We had other

554
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,960
Speaker 2: friends in town. We're gonna go to the casino in

555
00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:58,440
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh and watch all the first round games that day.

556
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:01,560
Speaker 2: Of course, Kentucky loses on Thursday to Oakland. I wake

557
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,120
Speaker 2: up and he has already flown to Nashville. He's already home.

558
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:06,400
Speaker 2: He got the earliest flight he could. Everyone is scattered.

559
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:08,800
Speaker 2: Matt and I drive back, and so since we were

560
00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:11,160
Speaker 2: all miserable and didn't get to have the weekend we wanted,

561
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:12,919
Speaker 2: he was like, Hey, you want to go to the Masters,

562
00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:14,760
Speaker 2: and I was like, absolutely, yes, I do. So I

563
00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:16,960
Speaker 2: kind of got that on the fly thanks to him,

564
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:20,119
Speaker 2: but made for a crazy, crazy, crazy Monday.

565
00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 8: Thank you Jack Goldkey for letting you go to the.

566
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 2: Yes, I would have rather been watching Kentucky and then

567
00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:28,160
Speaker 2: Stilly tournament, to be honest, but it was definitely wild times.

568
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,320
Speaker 2: I remember I was in line for the shop, very

569
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:32,159
Speaker 2: long line to go in and get my nome. I'm

570
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:34,080
Speaker 2: a big gnome guy, and there was a dude with

571
00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:37,000
Speaker 2: an Alabama tattoo on his leg and he's talking about

572
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 2: UK and then it hits him mid conversation. He's like, oh, wait,

573
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:42,760
Speaker 2: you are coming to get Nate Oates, aren't you. At

574
00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:44,800
Speaker 2: the time, I'm like maybe, And he's freaking out in

575
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:47,640
Speaker 2: line about Nate Oates leaving, but just whispers all around

576
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:49,679
Speaker 2: the golf course about the chaos, chaos going on in

577
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:50,360
Speaker 2: college basketball.

578
00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:52,159
Speaker 8: You can spend a thousand dollars pretty quickly in that

579
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:53,000
Speaker 8: Master's bro shop.

580
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:56,000
Speaker 6: Oh I can. I can definitely confirm. I'm wearing a

581
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:57,920
Speaker 6: lot of it right now. But we'll come back.

582
00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:00,120
Speaker 2: We'll talk a little more football, take more of your call,

583
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:02,439
Speaker 2: maybe get a little goofy, maybe even talk about more

584
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:04,359
Speaker 2: about the Masters. We're having a good Thursday here on

Speaker 2: six three six four or five three zero. Let's put

607
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:19,879
Speaker 2: the golf talk for a side, get back to football.

608
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:21,880
Speaker 2: We gotta dig more into luck. It's a big brain,

609
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:25,000
Speaker 2: he knows all about it. I feel like I've been

610
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 2: hearing positive things about the newly revamped offensive line like it.

611
00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:31,040
Speaker 2: You know, you want continuity, but they had to go

612
00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:33,639
Speaker 2: out and get lots of new pieces across the board.

613
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:36,120
Speaker 2: But it sounds like so far there is some optimism

614
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:36,760
Speaker 2: around that group.

615
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 6: Is that correct?

616
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:40,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, we don't get to see like the money spent,

617
00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:42,560
Speaker 5: like nice to see a patchhart to see where the

618
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:45,399
Speaker 5: funds are going. But I think if you were to

619
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:47,399
Speaker 5: draw one up, as an educated guess, a lot of

620
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:50,119
Speaker 5: it would be invested in the offensive line, and then

621
00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:52,640
Speaker 5: some of their defensive line acquisitions, like we heard Ty

622
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:54,600
Speaker 5: talking about mcque humph for Grace who was a big

623
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:59,399
Speaker 5: one at defensive end. But again it's totally rebuilt offensive line.

624
00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:02,840
Speaker 5: They good. If they wanted to start five transfers, like

625
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:04,879
Speaker 5: they've got five guys today, I think they could start.

626
00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:07,639
Speaker 5: I think you start with tackle. Their two starting tackles

627
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:10,080
Speaker 5: are gonna be transfer she Os Pate was a big one.

628
00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:14,359
Speaker 5: He was pete excuse me, left tackle, and then Alex

629
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:16,960
Speaker 5: Wolfschlager who was from Bowling Green was an All MAC performer.

630
00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:19,359
Speaker 5: But it sounds like the word out of the open

631
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:23,359
Speaker 5: practice was the interior offensive line was impressive. Joshua bron

632
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:25,920
Speaker 5: was an All SEC player at Arkansas is probably gonna

633
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:29,439
Speaker 5: be Kentucky starting right guard. Moved Jagger inside the center.

634
00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 5: Now you'll remember that was a move they tried to

635
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:34,640
Speaker 5: make two years ago. There was some snap snapping inaccuracy

636
00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:36,639
Speaker 5: they had the moving back to guard, but it sounds

637
00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:38,439
Speaker 5: like they're maybe gonna try him out center. But they

638
00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:41,719
Speaker 5: also added Evan Wibberley from w k U at center,

639
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:46,880
Speaker 5: Billy R Sports and then Jalen Farmer, who returns at guard,

640
00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:48,960
Speaker 5: was a Florida transfer last year, really had a kind

641
00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:51,760
Speaker 5: of a good year, but it was no one really.

642
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:53,240
Speaker 6: Talked about that because part of a bigger mess.

643
00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:55,880
Speaker 5: But he's the guy. I think they're they're excited about

644
00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:57,840
Speaker 5: moving forward. So you've kind of got the pieces, and

645
00:25:57,880 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 5: I think they have the quality depth that they just

646
00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:02,960
Speaker 5: haven't had really in any recent years. And there's a

647
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:04,840
Speaker 5: chance if they wanted to rotate, they could at a

648
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:07,800
Speaker 5: couple spots. So overall, I think the optimism is high.

649
00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:10,840
Speaker 5: I think they when they talk about the group, they

650
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:12,959
Speaker 5: talk about kind of how they go about their business

651
00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:15,840
Speaker 5: and how they work kind of an older group and

652
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,680
Speaker 5: there's no real drama there and they feel confident about

653
00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:22,040
Speaker 5: what they can bring. And I think just the floor wise,

654
00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:24,440
Speaker 5: I think they've really raised that really high. I think

655
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:26,200
Speaker 5: floor wise, they should be in a better spot when

656
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:28,600
Speaker 5: you add in the experience and the depth, just the

657
00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:32,040
Speaker 5: depth they've added last year. I think this time last year,

658
00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:34,560
Speaker 5: we talked about the floor being high, but there was

659
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,920
Speaker 5: worries about the depth, and then Marcus Cox seemed like

660
00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:40,240
Speaker 5: he played through an injury all year. Gerald Mincy gets

661
00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:42,880
Speaker 5: hurt like the second game, and that depth just got

662
00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:45,919
Speaker 5: eviscerated as soon as the season started. Or this year,

663
00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:47,920
Speaker 5: I think they're in a better They have a better

664
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,919
Speaker 5: chance to absorb an injury or two if that if

665
00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:54,440
Speaker 5: that occurs. So just overall, and but when you get

666
00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:57,240
Speaker 5: back to the money, like they've invested in this group,

667
00:26:57,320 --> 00:26:59,480
Speaker 5: they need this group to be good and that's really

668
00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:01,840
Speaker 5: gonna determine. And I think how good the offense can

669
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 5: be is just how the offensive line comes together.

670
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:07,720
Speaker 2: With Jagger very for everyone's very familiar with Jagger, Lex

671
00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:10,640
Speaker 2: and kids got over thirty starts playing at guard now

672
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:13,240
Speaker 2: playing a little center. I'm no expert on the matter,

673
00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:16,000
Speaker 2: but at the thirty minutes of practice I got to watch,

674
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:18,040
Speaker 2: he looked like he's put on a lot of weight.

675
00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:20,040
Speaker 2: Was that something he did, And what's the talk around

676
00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:22,280
Speaker 2: him and the optimism around him stepping in that new role.

677
00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:25,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that is the That was a surprise

678
00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:27,760
Speaker 5: to me like that when he was at center. That

679
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:29,959
Speaker 5: was a surprise that I that that was that he

680
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,399
Speaker 5: was there, because I thought they brought in Wibberley to

681
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:34,960
Speaker 5: be the plug and play center there. But it sounds

682
00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:37,600
Speaker 5: like they're they're putting Jagger there. Whibberley's kind of banged up.

683
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:40,359
Speaker 5: It sounds like for Mark Stoops and so to me,

684
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:42,919
Speaker 5: Burton that was always kind of his natural position. If

685
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:45,080
Speaker 5: he could play that, It just the snapping was an

686
00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:47,400
Speaker 5: issue when he played that too. I guess Levis's last

687
00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:50,000
Speaker 5: year or Leary one of those years he played center

688
00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:52,600
Speaker 5: and it just didn't work out. And so if he

689
00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:54,520
Speaker 5: can fit there that you could see that being a

690
00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,199
Speaker 5: really good fit. And it gives Kentucky some depth I

691
00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:59,439
Speaker 5: really think across the board if he can play there.

692
00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:02,320
Speaker 5: But Jaggery, he was a guy Drew like, it would

693
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:05,160
Speaker 5: have made sense. I guess for him to transfer, right,

694
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:07,720
Speaker 5: it hasn't gone well, everyone else is leaving this room.

695
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,560
Speaker 5: They're bringing in all these new guys. You've had all

696
00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:13,600
Speaker 5: these different position coaches, different coordinators. It would have made

697
00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:15,719
Speaker 5: sense for him to get get a fresh start somewhere.

698
00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:17,320
Speaker 5: But we got to talk to him about a week

699
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:20,679
Speaker 5: two weeks ago and was basically like he said, you

700
00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:23,480
Speaker 5: could kind of hear some of the lectioning thing coming out.

701
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:25,680
Speaker 5: You could hear the Kentucky football fan I think coming

702
00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:28,479
Speaker 5: out in him, which was basically like, I just wouldn't

703
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:32,200
Speaker 5: feel right if I left this place in this position,

704
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:35,600
Speaker 5: Like I just wouldn't wouldn't feel right. So I'm with

705
00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:38,240
Speaker 5: these coaches. I believe in these coaches, and he's here

706
00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:40,080
Speaker 5: to help fix that. And now we'll see how it goes.

707
00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:42,280
Speaker 5: But again, like I think they're in a position where

708
00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:44,160
Speaker 5: if someone's not playing well, they can put someone else

709
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:46,080
Speaker 5: in there, and that was simply just hasn't been an

710
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:48,640
Speaker 5: option last I would say, really since twenty twenty one,

711
00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:51,360
Speaker 5: maybe even before then, really since twenty twenty that they

712
00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:54,040
Speaker 5: haven't had the depth like this. And so we'll see

713
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:56,760
Speaker 5: how that plays out once the games begin. But we

714
00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:58,959
Speaker 5: know what Mark Stoops football is. They want to run

715
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:01,520
Speaker 5: the ball, they want to drain clock, they want to

716
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:05,040
Speaker 5: win games playing complimenting football, and that means long time

717
00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:06,520
Speaker 5: of possessions and that means you've got to have a

718
00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:09,040
Speaker 5: good offensive line that can push people around a lot.

719
00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 5: A lot hinges on them being being able to do that,

720
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:13,320
Speaker 5: being able to establish the run game, and then where

721
00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:14,680
Speaker 5: you don't have to have a lot of pressure on

722
00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:17,960
Speaker 5: your quarterback or your receivers or your offensive coordinator to

723
00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:21,440
Speaker 5: you know, call the perfect play that have scheming up

724
00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:24,880
Speaker 5: at the perfect time to get guys open magically when

725
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 5: you need to. If you're able to run the ball,

726
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:29,240
Speaker 5: that makes everything easier. And I think a lot is

727
00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:32,440
Speaker 5: dependent on that group being good. If that group's not good,

728
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:35,560
Speaker 5: you want to talk about bad case scenario, that's the

729
00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 5: bad that's a bad scenario. It's like, well, how do

730
00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:39,960
Speaker 5: we even do anything if if this group we spent

731
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,840
Speaker 5: all this money on, invested all our racism on it,

732
00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:44,960
Speaker 5: if they're not good, then we're kind of in a

733
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:45,440
Speaker 5: tough shape.

734
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 7: I'm excited for the Western guy, but I've heard great

735
00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:49,880
Speaker 7: things about the peak the tackle.

736
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:53,800
Speaker 2: Just he sticks out so much. Six eight funny interview

737
00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:56,560
Speaker 2: as well, all of six eight from the Navajo Nation.

738
00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:58,360
Speaker 2: Kind of a unique background here.

739
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:01,239
Speaker 7: Our expectations too high for the offensive line, I mean

740
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:02,840
Speaker 7: their identity of the big blue wall.

741
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:04,120
Speaker 8: It's been years since that.

742
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,520
Speaker 5: I don't think people want the best offensive line in

743
00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:09,840
Speaker 5: college football. I just think they want one that's in

744
00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:11,680
Speaker 5: the middle of the pack in the sec. If you

745
00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:15,120
Speaker 5: deliver that, they're gonna be in much better shape. But

746
00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:16,479
Speaker 5: they have to prove they can do that. Sure they

747
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:17,440
Speaker 5: haven't done it last few years.

748
00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:19,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm very distracted by our friends from Benton here?

749
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:22,040
Speaker 2: Can you as smell those fried banana peppers? I have

750
00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:24,640
Speaker 2: four or five cups of coffee on an empty stomach,

751
00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:27,160
Speaker 2: and their food smells delicious. Good to have ya here.

752
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 2: I might take a buy of your food during this

753
00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:29,120
Speaker 2: next break.

754
00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:30,120
Speaker 6: Luck it.

755
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:32,960
Speaker 2: If there's a position group we're really worried about, what

756
00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 2: would it be? What would you say if there's a

757
00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:37,040
Speaker 2: there's one that looks like it could be a weak spot.

758
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:39,360
Speaker 2: What needs to get short up before fall gets here?

759
00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:45,840
Speaker 5: It's a great question. Linebacker is one where you kind

760
00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:49,480
Speaker 5: of moved to Alex Safari. Inside you lost just a

761
00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:53,440
Speaker 5: lot of star power with de Eric Jackson and Jimi Johnson.

762
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:55,720
Speaker 6: Reading tacklers.

763
00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:59,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, they peel confident David Rayner and they added laying

764
00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:01,720
Speaker 5: them one from the portal. But then it's a lot

765
00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:04,480
Speaker 5: of young guys, So linebacker is one I think. I

766
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:08,360
Speaker 5: think that sticks out. Again, I think safety, they're a

767
00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:10,760
Speaker 5: little thin there, like Martell's Carter and Cam Dooley, who

768
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:12,720
Speaker 5: are freshmen, are kind of your third and four safeties.

769
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:15,960
Speaker 5: So that's that's one to watch. I think potentially, you know,

770
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:19,120
Speaker 5: they got Ty Bryant back there, but that's one I

771
00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:25,080
Speaker 5: think to watch. And then offensively, Kentucky had they've the

772
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:28,520
Speaker 5: Kentucky staple on offenses. We've got a thousand yard back

773
00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:30,240
Speaker 5: and we're gonna give him the dag on ball.

774
00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:33,880
Speaker 2: Had a lot of all sec rushers in the successful years.

775
00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:36,160
Speaker 5: So do they have that. We've never really seen them

776
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:38,520
Speaker 5: kind of do the committee thing, like be really good

777
00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:41,080
Speaker 5: at it. That's kind of how it's shaping up right now.

778
00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:43,280
Speaker 5: Or can one of those backs step up and be

779
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:46,360
Speaker 5: kind of a focal point of the offense. We saw

780
00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:49,240
Speaker 5: what will Cox could do, but there's some trust and

781
00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:52,520
Speaker 5: consistency she's with them. I think you brought Dante Daldell

782
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:55,880
Speaker 5: to come in and really they stunk a short yardage

783
00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:57,400
Speaker 5: and he was one of the best short yardage backs

784
00:31:57,440 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 5: in college football last year, so brought him in to

785
00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:01,200
Speaker 5: fix that. And then Jay Patterson as a young guy.

786
00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:03,440
Speaker 5: I think they're excited about. But to me, they really

787
00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:05,480
Speaker 5: need one or two guys in that group to emerge

788
00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:08,160
Speaker 5: and be kind of the guy for them offensively, because

789
00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:09,960
Speaker 5: they have been at their best when they just had

790
00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:11,480
Speaker 5: a back and say, you know what, we're giving this

791
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:13,920
Speaker 5: guy the ball seventeen to twenty two times and that's

792
00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:15,080
Speaker 5: how we're gonna move the football.

793
00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:17,840
Speaker 8: Well, it's good to hear you not say long snapper

794
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:20,200
Speaker 8: or kicker, because.

795
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:22,400
Speaker 5: Well, kickers are out. Kicker is a question mark, but

796
00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:24,800
Speaker 5: there's other issues I think we have to worry about

797
00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:26,080
Speaker 5: before we get into kicker.

798
00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:30,640
Speaker 2: Looking way into the future, I intentionally saved this news

799
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:31,920
Speaker 2: piece for when you were on the show.

800
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:32,640
Speaker 6: They got a.

801
00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:35,560
Speaker 2: Quarterback commitment, first commitment in the twenty twenty seventh class

802
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:37,440
Speaker 2: earlier this week on Monday Tuesday ish.

803
00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:38,920
Speaker 6: Maybe yeah, But DJ.

804
00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:41,200
Speaker 2: Hunter they got him out of Knoxville of all places.

805
00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:43,320
Speaker 2: Tell us about him in that first piece in the

806
00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:44,960
Speaker 2: twenty twenty seven recruiting goal.

807
00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:48,960
Speaker 5: He's a kid actually who's got family in Lexendon apparently,

808
00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:53,240
Speaker 5: so there's a connection there. He's it's very early in

809
00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:55,440
Speaker 5: the process, but this is a guy who started games

810
00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:57,640
Speaker 5: last year. For a high school in Knoxville and has

811
00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 5: kind of a dual threat skill set, Like if you

812
00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:02,800
Speaker 5: want to go and watch the film, it's a good film.

813
00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:04,600
Speaker 5: So I think there's a chance this guy can be

814
00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:07,239
Speaker 5: kind of like a top two hundred national recruit. So

815
00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:09,800
Speaker 5: it's nice to get him on the board early. It's

816
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:12,000
Speaker 5: a really big recruiting When we talked about quarterback, they've

817
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:14,560
Speaker 5: got to get better at developing guys. But you've got

818
00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:17,000
Speaker 5: to have good recruiting wins like the typically the guys

819
00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:18,800
Speaker 5: you end up being able to develop our guys who

820
00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:21,240
Speaker 5: were coveted as high school recruits. And this is a

821
00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:23,680
Speaker 5: guy I think we'll be coveted and I you know,

822
00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:25,680
Speaker 5: it's a long recruiting process, but to get him in

823
00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:28,840
Speaker 5: the boat early, it's always nice. It would be one

824
00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:30,360
Speaker 5: of the like I would kind of compare it to

825
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:32,200
Speaker 5: the cutter Bully recruitment, like this is a guy who

826
00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:35,560
Speaker 5: who's gonna have legitimate power conference options and you got him,

827
00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:38,200
Speaker 5: you were able to get him committed early, and he's

828
00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:40,720
Speaker 5: a guy again it's a long way away, but it

829
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:42,600
Speaker 5: was a very solid recruiting win. I think for the

830
00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:45,440
Speaker 5: staff to get that guy early, and it came just

831
00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:47,960
Speaker 5: a week after he was on campus. He was just

832
00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:50,440
Speaker 5: at go on Kentucky's campus and he decided to call

833
00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:52,080
Speaker 5: Mark Stoops and that was kind of I don't know,

834
00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:54,720
Speaker 5: I know, everything's getting lost in the sauce now, but

835
00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:56,160
Speaker 5: if you go and check it ou out on CaSR,

836
00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:57,960
Speaker 5: like he calls Stoops and you get to hear stoops

837
00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:00,400
Speaker 5: his raw reaction we have up on the site and

838
00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:04,040
Speaker 5: that was pretty pretty cool, like behind the scenes clip

839
00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:05,960
Speaker 5: there we got. But yeah, I can think for him

840
00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:08,320
Speaker 5: that's a good recruiting win and it kind of keeps

841
00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:09,880
Speaker 5: them where they're You got to do both. To me,

842
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:11,040
Speaker 5: you've got to be able to get portal and you've

843
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:13,319
Speaker 5: got to be able to get consistently get quarterbacks in

844
00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:15,640
Speaker 5: and they're in a slow start at twenty twenty six.

845
00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:17,880
Speaker 5: It doesn't look like they're probably gonna get a quarterback

846
00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:19,399
Speaker 5: in twenty twenty six, so to get one in twenty

847
00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:21,680
Speaker 5: twenty seven, it's really important. Then they got him in

848
00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 5: the fold.

849
00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:24,880
Speaker 2: He's a future Cat in the news. We also have

850
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:26,480
Speaker 2: some former Cats in the news.

851
00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:26,800
Speaker 6: Weird.

852
00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:29,640
Speaker 2: Now, what is it two weeks away from today? Is

853
00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:30,560
Speaker 2: the NFL Draft?

854
00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:30,839
Speaker 3: Is it?

855
00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:31,600
Speaker 6: Am I correct?

856
00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:34,879
Speaker 2: That is correct two weeks. Yeah, it'll be right here.

857
00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:38,359
Speaker 2: Dion's been slipping. You got Harston in the fold the linebackers.

858
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:41,480
Speaker 2: You mentioned any predictions for how the draft could shake

859
00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:42,439
Speaker 2: out for the former Cats.

860
00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:44,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, Eli Hawks is also going to get drafted.

861
00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:46,160
Speaker 6: Yeah, point on the combine Star.

862
00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:49,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, so he had a big bit. He crushed the

863
00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:52,400
Speaker 5: pre draft process, so he's gonna get a shot to

864
00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:55,680
Speaker 5: play somewhere next year. Hairston is right in the fringe

865
00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:59,120
Speaker 5: first round. But one thing I will say, he's cornerback

866
00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:01,920
Speaker 5: three and that's typically position teams like the draft early.

867
00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:04,200
Speaker 5: So I think he's got a really good shot at

868
00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:05,800
Speaker 5: you know, when you start getting in the twenties. I

869
00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:07,960
Speaker 5: think he's in draft range, so he could be would

870
00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:10,960
Speaker 5: be the first Kentucky player at first cornerback to be

871
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:11,799
Speaker 5: a first round pick.

872
00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:12,680
Speaker 8: Wow.

873
00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:14,399
Speaker 5: So that's that's a chance for him. So he's gonna

874
00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:17,080
Speaker 5: go off the board early. I think for Dion, you're

875
00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:19,680
Speaker 5: looking at round three's round four, as the pre draft

876
00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:20,640
Speaker 5: process hasn't been great.

877
00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:23,640
Speaker 2: Crazy that he's in the third and fourth round discussion

878
00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:24,920
Speaker 2: now from the top two would.

879
00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:26,640
Speaker 5: Be earlier in the year. Yeah, I would be surprised

880
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:28,560
Speaker 5: if he falls out of the third round. The way

881
00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:32,440
Speaker 5: the draft works, Drew, once you get in the third, fourth, fifth,

882
00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:35,000
Speaker 5: sixth round, they have things that are called comp picks,

883
00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:37,719
Speaker 5: which is basically what they give teams if they lose

884
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:40,680
Speaker 5: a free agent, depend on how much the free agent

885
00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:43,080
Speaker 5: signed for. So the Eagles are gonna get a high

886
00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:45,759
Speaker 5: compick because Milton Williams signed for a lot of money.

887
00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:47,719
Speaker 5: And so that's how that kind of works. I think

888
00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:50,200
Speaker 5: when those compicks happen, that's kind of the range where

889
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:52,440
Speaker 5: Dion's gonna go in that third round. I would be

890
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:53,960
Speaker 5: surprised if he gets out of the third round. And

891
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:56,680
Speaker 5: then I think you look at Dumis Johnson and then

892
00:35:57,000 --> 00:36:00,560
Speaker 5: eli Hawks will be Day Day three picks somewhere fourth, fifth,

893
00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:03,000
Speaker 5: sixth round and that and then we'll see if any

894
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:04,920
Speaker 5: other these other Kentucky players can kind of sneak in

895
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:06,480
Speaker 5: and get get one in the seventh.

896
00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:08,839
Speaker 2: Before we take a break, You're weren't a Bengals hat.

897
00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:10,920
Speaker 2: I know we have a lot of Bengals listeners. How

898
00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:13,439
Speaker 2: you feeling about your the offseason? The Bengals have had

899
00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:15,480
Speaker 2: what they'll do in the draft. You know, you all

900
00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:17,400
Speaker 2: went from being like my Titans just not in the

901
00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:20,360
Speaker 2: discussion at all to contenders here lately. Are you excited

902
00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:21,560
Speaker 2: about the future of Cincinnati.

903
00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:24,880
Speaker 5: I'm very excited about continuing the Joe Burrow, T. Higgins

904
00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:28,120
Speaker 5: Jamar Chase train. I think we're gonna score a lot

905
00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:30,480
Speaker 5: of points next year. What I am worried about is

906
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:32,279
Speaker 5: what in the world are they doing on defense and

907
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:34,000
Speaker 5: how are they gonna fix that? And they have to

908
00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:37,040
Speaker 5: really crush this draft. That is kind of my bigger concern.

909
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:41,520
Speaker 5: But just protect the asset, keep nine on the field.

910
00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:42,920
Speaker 5: I think we'll have a chance. We just got to

911
00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:46,239
Speaker 5: get this defense to some base level competent. If they

912
00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:47,960
Speaker 5: do that, I think they've got a legit chance to

913
00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:50,600
Speaker 5: win the Super Bowl. Well why do quarterback and now

914
00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:51,759
Speaker 5: the Titans got to get there. Course.

915
00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:54,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, while you're watching your team succeed, I'll be rooting

916
00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:56,359
Speaker 2: for the cam Ward experience. My Titans have the number

917
00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:57,880
Speaker 2: one pick. Can't wait to see how they blow that.

918
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:00,439
Speaker 2: They might take a punter with their draft history, who knows.

919
00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:03,279
Speaker 2: But we'll take one more break here at KSR. We'll

920
00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:05,520
Speaker 2: be right back to put a bow on today's episode,

921
00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:07,360
Speaker 2: and tomorrow is the last day a Drew paloozas so

922
00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:08,279
Speaker 2: We'll get you ready for that.

923
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:09,040
Speaker 6: This is KSR.

924
00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:12,520
Speaker 2: There's Rick playing the hits right there. Drew Franklin for

925
00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:16,200
Speaker 2: one last segment with Adam Luckett and Billy Rutledge got

926
00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:18,960
Speaker 2: a message from Kentucky State Chamber. With storms continuing to

927
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:21,960
Speaker 2: hit Kentucky, the Kentucky Chambers continuing with their flood relief

928
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:25,279

929
00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:27,959

Speaker 2: twenty five Storm Relief Bill. I'm gonna put you on

939
00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:05,560
Speaker 2: the spot. I got another master's question. Please, how much

940
00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:07,320
Speaker 2: did you hate the kids at the Part three contests

941
00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:10,480
Speaker 2: just today. I mean, we had Poppy McElroy, the daughter

942
00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:14,560
Speaker 2: of Rory sink an incredible putt. I'm sure lots of

943
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:17,680
Speaker 2: people saw that twenty five footer downhill. He didn't line

944
00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:20,280
Speaker 2: it up for her, she just tapped it with the putter.

945
00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,440
Speaker 2: It felt like it took three minutes to get to

946
00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:24,320
Speaker 2: the hole and dropped in perfectly.

947
00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:25,520
Speaker 6: And my first thought was.

948
00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:27,879
Speaker 2: Billy just broke his television because there are kids making

949
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:29,640
Speaker 2: plays at I guesst on Wednesday.

950
00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:31,640
Speaker 7: No, I had the same thought when it happened, It's like,

951
00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:34,040
Speaker 7: get these kids off the course. But there was a

952
00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:35,800
Speaker 7: part of me like I felt like the Grinch a

953
00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:38,720
Speaker 7: little bit where his heart grows like three four times

954
00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:41,440
Speaker 7: the size because Keegan Bradley's throwing his kids in the

955
00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:44,040
Speaker 7: air after a hole in one and just some special

956
00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:47,399
Speaker 7: moments with Koepka and his son and daughter, and there

957
00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:49,360
Speaker 7: was more than a few moments that were good with

958
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:49,759
Speaker 7: the kids.

959
00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:51,200
Speaker 8: So I think I'm gonna allow this one.

960
00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:55,640
Speaker 5: Does Billy have the Michael Jordan meme blown up and

961
00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:58,439
Speaker 5: then a poster in his room the blank those kids?

962
00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:01,439
Speaker 6: Yes, he does. Ronald Jordan actually took that from Billy.

963
00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:03,240
Speaker 7: I feel like that was my mancho over the first

964
00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:05,399
Speaker 7: two three years I did the post game shows with Matt.

965
00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:07,839
Speaker 7: It was it really became a thing. And now now

966
00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:08,920
Speaker 7: all the kids try to call in.

967
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:09,319
Speaker 3: And get it.

968
00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:11,600
Speaker 2: I feel like we have a breakthrough. Maybe it was

969
00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:13,800
Speaker 2: just a Master's Part three contest of what you needed.

970
00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:16,280
Speaker 2: There are adorable little kids running around everywhere.

971
00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:17,759
Speaker 8: I think it was Heather. I just need to start

972
00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:20,000
Speaker 8: being nicer to the colors a little bit.

973
00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:23,320
Speaker 6: You did, uh well, you want to you know, Matt's away.

974
00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:24,120
Speaker 6: You have the floor.

975
00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:27,200
Speaker 2: Have we I want to say, learned a lesson, but

976
00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:28,880
Speaker 2: you used to just say to yourself your heart has

977
00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:31,000
Speaker 2: grown a little bit. Mister grinch over there between Heather

978
00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:33,520
Speaker 2: and and kids making putts at the Part three contest, Yeah.

979
00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:35,600
Speaker 7: I can't challenge your listeners to a fight and to

980
00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:38,040
Speaker 7: show up at the bar. I can't be that mean

981
00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:41,160
Speaker 7: to children and women on the air and make them cry.

982
00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:43,560
Speaker 7: I'm trying to grow a little bit, Drew, So hopefully

983
00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:45,480
Speaker 7: I've made some progress over the last year or so.

984
00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:48,120
Speaker 7: But we did have some eventful post game events this

985
00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:50,520
Speaker 7: year that would say otherwise. But we'll see.

986
00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:53,480
Speaker 2: Hopefully we're growing also as you noted you're no longer

987
00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:56,800
Speaker 2: fighting listeners a year ago. This week you challenged a

988
00:39:56,840 --> 00:39:59,600
Speaker 2: listener to a fight. You're past that, you're now enjoying

989
00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:03,000
Speaker 2: kids making putts in Augusta. I mean, where, Billy, will

990
00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:04,640
Speaker 2: we see a year from that? I know, who knows,

991
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:06,560
Speaker 2: who knows, who knows if I'm even here? I mean,

992
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:08,719
Speaker 2: I may be gone at this point. But you know

993
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:11,360
Speaker 2: that's not that's not shades of anything either. But you know,

994
00:40:11,680 --> 00:40:13,960
Speaker 2: taking Mario underneath our wing has been a lot of fun.

995
00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:15,719
Speaker 2: Shannon's really the only one that I need to worry

996
00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:16,759
Speaker 2: about fighting nowadays.

997
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:18,400
Speaker 8: It's a we've made some growth.
