The biggest story, of course, 11 00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:42,480 Speaker 2: is the basketball game Saturday. You know, I spoke pretty 12 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:46,640 Speaker 2: extensively in a monologue on Saturday Night, which people can 13 00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:48,640 Speaker 2: hear on the podcast from the postgame show. So I 14 00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:51,360 Speaker 2: guess Ryan, I'll let you. You were at the game, 15 00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:54,200 Speaker 2: both of you were at the game. What were your thoughts? 16 00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:56,480 Speaker 3: I mean, it was it was just a beat down. 17 00:00:56,760 --> 00:01:00,320 Speaker 3: I mean, that's your rival over there, and they came 18 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 3: in and beat you down from the opening tip. It 19 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:06,479 Speaker 3: was not a ballgame. And I just don't know how 20 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:08,360 Speaker 3: you what was the last three games? You give it 21 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 3: up ninety four, ninety six and one hundred and three 22 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:14,200 Speaker 3: points in their last three games. How do you let 23 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 3: anybody on your home floor score one hundred and three 24 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:20,400 Speaker 3: points and then at your rival and at your second 25 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:24,080 Speaker 3: loss in a row. I'm I'm obviously frustrated. 26 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:28,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, most points giving up in RUP since Billy Clyde 27 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 2: the vm I game, which is still an amazing game 28 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 2: if you think about in your head, and the first 29 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 2: most buy in the SEC opponent period since nineteen ninety three, 30 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 2: that Arkansas team, by the way, in a game that 31 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 2: was like one o four to one oh three. It 32 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 2: was even different than this one, Drew. 33 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 4: I'm still in a little bit of disbelief and how 34 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 4: that happened. I knew there's a chance, maybe even a 35 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 4: good chance without DJ Wagner, that they could lose, but 36 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 4: they got whooped from the very beginning. At no point, 37 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,160 Speaker 4: once Tennessee went up right away, did I I think 38 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 4: Kentucky was gonna win because they didn't even look like 39 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 4: they belonged on the court in those first few minutes. Now, 40 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 4: they made some runs and got close, but even then 41 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:09,360 Speaker 4: it felt like fools. 42 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 2: Gold it didn't. 43 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,119 Speaker 4: It felt like Tennessee was gonna just punch right back, 44 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 4: which they did. 45 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 2: Agree with you on that. Like that was the weirdest 46 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 2: thing is that there was never a moment in the 47 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 2: game I thought we were gonna win. Even when they 48 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 2: cut it to I think forty six forty five, I 49 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 2: just felt like, well, hang on, you know. 50 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 4: The one moment I got some optimism was to play 51 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 4: at the end where they got to stop and then 52 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 4: five eight Ziggler tips it in to beat the shot clock, 53 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 4: and I just thought that was maybe the one chance 54 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 4: if they got to stop there, because I think they'd 55 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 4: cut it to four a little bit. But it was 56 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 4: just such a waste. Well, I know, we'll talk about 57 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 4: how awesome Rparena was. That had the potential to be 58 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 4: on my all time list if they were to win 59 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 4: that game. When I walked in, the guy at the 60 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 4: security gate, he's been there for years, we talked to 61 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 4: every game. He goes, Buddy, it's Matt House in here 62 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 4: and get ready. And I walked straight from pregame show. 63 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 4: This is an hour over an hour four tip off. 64 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:00,960 Speaker 4: I go to where we check in with you. They're like, 65 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 4: it's crazy in here. Get ready, and it really was. 66 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 4: People were I mean a lot of people were later rivors, 67 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,519 Speaker 4: but the people there were cheering forty five minutes before 68 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,080 Speaker 4: tip off and were like that for most of the game, 69 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 4: even when I felt like they didn't have a chance. 70 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 4: But then for Kentucky you never even have a lead. 71 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 4: I'm just in shock that that happened. 72 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I not just you saying that, but you're 73 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 2: you're confirming what a lot of people said, which was 74 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 2: one of the better pregame atmospheres they ever remember. By 75 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 2: the way, on a side note, I am now one 76 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 2: hundred percent convinced on my theory that the cameras are 77 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,640 Speaker 2: different at ESPN than they are at CBS. And here's 78 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 2: here's why. I can say that. I was here Saturday 79 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 2: during the day and there was a Fox game that 80 00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 2: was on Connecticut Saint John's and the it was an 81 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 2: insane like the sound in here that you in this bar. 82 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 2: The crowd sound was so loud. And then they went 83 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 2: to Kansas at four I was in here and they 84 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 2: went to Kansas huge. Well, immediately after that they go 85 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 2: to another game and iiately, the crowd sound just goes 86 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 2: down right, And then later Kansas Houston was on and 87 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 2: people said the Kansas Arena was as loud as it's 88 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 2: ever been and you could barely tell. So I do 89 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 2: think it's important when you're judging the rough crowd to 90 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:16,280 Speaker 2: remember that. I just don't think the ESPN cameras make 91 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 2: the crowd what it is in person, because I think 92 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:21,839 Speaker 2: it's easy to at home go well, that doesn't look 93 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 2: that crazy. But I just think ESPN just puts the camera, 94 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 2: puts the microphone in different places at RUP and makes 95 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 2: it to where it doesn't work much. 96 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 3: I think though, too, because this is an issue that 97 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 3: we were hearing over and over and now you've got 98 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:34,360 Speaker 3: the proof where. 99 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 2: It literally went back to back and the sound in 100 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 2: here like cut in half. Immediately nobody's back there, and 101 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:42,719 Speaker 2: nobody was back there flipping it just it was the 102 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:48,720 Speaker 2: game switching. I was, you know, I'm not gonna say 103 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 2: I don't think I was as upset as I was 104 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 2: last year when they lost to South Carolina because I thought, 105 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 2: like Drew, there was a chance they would lose. I 106 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 2: just couldn't believe how we just got whipped the whole game. 107 00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 2: I mean, how many games have there been? Did I 108 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 2: see there's a been four times that Kentucky's been ranked 109 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 2: or there was some stat like this since the start 110 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 2: of the program, where they've never led at home in 111 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 2: a game. 112 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,719 Speaker 4: Really, thirty nine minutes and forty eight seconds, Tennessee was 113 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 4: leading and the only and the other twelve time they 114 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 4: got the ball went down and hit a three. Kentucky 115 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 4: was in the game for twelve seconds. 116 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean never led. I mean there are there 117 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 2: are not very many games at all at rop where 118 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 2: Kentucky never has a lead the entire game. It was 119 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:33,039 Speaker 2: the most frustrated I've seen the fan base. Uh Like, 120 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 2: I don't want to say ever, but it's it might 121 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 2: be the most frustrated of the cal here. Would you 122 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,480 Speaker 2: agree with that? Even though again I don't think it's 123 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 2: so much this game like this is a losable game, 124 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 2: but on on the heels of Florida and on the 125 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:49,599 Speaker 2: heels of you know, all the other stuff in just 126 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,280 Speaker 2: the last couple of years, it did I don't want 127 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:55,039 Speaker 2: to say it felt like a total breaking point, but 128 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 2: it felt like a tipping point where some people who 129 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,599 Speaker 2: were kind of on the on the edge, we're kind 130 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 2: of moving in a negative direction. 131 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:05,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it definitely was a tipping point. To 132 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 3: lose these two games at home in the same week 133 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 3: to two teams that were basically kind of your rivals, 134 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:12,920 Speaker 3: and to get beat down the way you did on Saturday. 135 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 3: I mean I piggyback what Drew said. Man, the crowd 136 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:18,200 Speaker 3: was awesome, It was into it. There were a lot 137 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 3: of former players there, Tayshawn Michael Kay Gilfi's Patrick Patterson 138 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 3: did the why there ain't so many people? So many 139 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 3: people there, Chris Rodriguez, one Dell. There were so many 140 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 3: guys there. And if you told me they were gonna 141 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:33,360 Speaker 3: hold connect when he getting up sixteen seventeen points. 142 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:36,680 Speaker 2: Five four, yeah, twelve points before the free throw started. 143 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:38,480 Speaker 3: And I thought, you gotta you're gonna win if you 144 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:41,159 Speaker 3: hold him that. But I just for everybody else, that 145 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:42,279 Speaker 3: little ziggler dude. 146 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 2: He and he's actually over the years not played well again, 147 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 2: but he did last night. 148 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 3: Boy, he did Saturday. He may be the best defensive 149 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:53,360 Speaker 3: player in the SEC. He totally took us out of 150 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:56,719 Speaker 3: everything we were trying to do offensively by his defensive president. 151 00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 2: Still, I think it's worth noting Rob Dillingham put up 152 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:03,039 Speaker 2: it was incredible. I mean, like we lose by twenty 153 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,360 Speaker 2: five points if he if he has a normal game, 154 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 2: I mean, if he just scores twenty, it's embarrassing. Right. 155 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 2: Our guards scored seventy two of the ninety two points. 156 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 2: Antonio Reems again scored twenty one, and he don't even feel. 157 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 4: Like he was No, he played four points from people 158 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 4: over sixt eight. 159 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's second row. Trey Mitchell kind of disappeared. 160 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 2: But when you're bigs six eight are over combined for 161 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 2: four points, yeah, I mean that's I mean, you're not 162 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 2: gonna win like that. No, I have been you know, well, 163 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 2: I was just I was so disappointed by it and 164 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 2: it and you know, I have to admit part of 165 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 2: it was on the heels of Friday. And we'll talk 166 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 2: a little more about this later, but what happened on 167 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 2: Friday after our show and just the way there became 168 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 2: like an avalanche of frustration and flood at the at 169 00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 2: thet KSR. But I I was very disappointed in the game. 170 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 2: And then Cayl doesn't do the post game job. Now, 171 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 2: I said this on the post on the my postgame, 172 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 2: I texted Drew right after the game and go, you know, 173 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 2: he'll do the postgame radio, right and Drew was like, 174 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 2: of course, and then he didn't and I articulated this 175 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 2: more on the show. But they sent Justin Edwards to 176 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 2: do the player interview, the kid who's probably taken the 177 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 2: most criticism of any player on the team this year, 178 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 2: and he did it and he did a good job, 179 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 2: and then Cal skipped it. I couldn't believe he did that, Ryan, 180 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:43,560 Speaker 2: I mean, I couldn't like And I made this point 181 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:48,480 Speaker 2: on the on the on the post game. He one 182 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 2: of his great traits has always been he preaches accountability, 183 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:56,200 Speaker 2: that phrase, I can't hide you. You're at Kentucky and 184 00:08:56,240 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 2: his principle is you can't do other stuff here. And 185 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:04,360 Speaker 2: then he doesn't. He doesn't go. Now. I'm sure tonight 186 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:06,560 Speaker 2: when he's on his show he'll have a reason whatever, 187 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:08,720 Speaker 2: But that show could have taken ten minutes. 188 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 4: There's no show tonight too, and Bruiser is doing today's 189 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 4: press conference. 190 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:18,680 Speaker 2: Just a travel so there'll be a show Wednesday and 191 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 2: they'll probably have won by then and then he'll talk. 192 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:23,599 Speaker 2: But Bruisers doing the press conference today. 193 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, I feel like maybe that would be a good 194 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 4: time to do it. 195 00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:27,679 Speaker 2: Prescot mean, so he's not even gonna talk at all. 196 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 2: I mean, Ryan, that's that's unbelievably. It is unbelievably lame 197 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 2: because you preach all the time about accountability and your 198 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:40,720 Speaker 2: players preach. You tell these players they have to do something. 199 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 2: You are making ten million dollars a year and you 200 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 2: have yet to say a word. And don't give me 201 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 2: the press conference they do with the press. There's like 202 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 2: eight people there and that's not gonna be heard like 203 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,080 Speaker 2: the radio is. It's just I think it's ridiculous, right, 204 00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 2: I do. I think it's Cal has been a amazing here. 205 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 2: He's been a great ambassador here. He has understood this 206 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,080 Speaker 2: program as well as any coach that's ever been here. 207 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 2: That might be the lamest thing that he has done 208 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 2: since he's been here. 209 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 3: It's chicken blank. It's exactly what it is. You gotta 210 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 3: own up and face the music. When things are bad, 211 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:19,560 Speaker 3: you do it. We sure do it when they're good. 212 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 3: He do you think he'd have been out there if 213 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 3: they won? One hundred percent? 214 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, Shannon, you think he's out there if they win. 215 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 5: Oh, I know he's out there if they win. Every 216 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:29,959 Speaker 5: time he says he ever missed it when they when 217 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 5: they win. 218 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:33,440 Speaker 2: And he would have said, you know, everybody was saying, like, 219 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 2: we know what he would have said, and then he 220 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 2: loses and he does even come and let me give 221 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:41,079 Speaker 2: Orlando credit. Orlando sat there, answered every question, did a 222 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 2: good job. But like I love Orlando, but nobody wants 223 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 2: to hear from Orlando Drew. They want to hear from cow. 224 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 4: I couldn't believe it. Uh, I don't go to press conferences. 225 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:52,080 Speaker 4: I sit out there and listen to the radio. You know, 226 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:53,960 Speaker 4: we have Jack and Zach go to the press conference 227 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 4: and kind of cover both. And I'm sitting there and 228 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 4: people are walking by me on their way the press conference, 229 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 4: going Cal gonna come out. I got to text you 230 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 4: him like of course he is, like he knows the 231 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 4: importance of this one. And when Coach O started walking 232 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 4: out of that tunnel, I had to pick my jaw 233 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:08,680 Speaker 4: off the floor. I could not believe it. And the 234 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 4: people out there are groaning, going where's Cal? 235 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 2: Where you could hear You could hear a couple of 236 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:16,440 Speaker 2: people screaming where's Cal. 237 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 4: And really it's not even about what he's gonna say. 238 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 4: We all know he's got stock answers. But he spent 239 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 4: the last two weeks begging Raparena to show up, and 240 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 4: they did, and a crowd hung around thirty forty five 241 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:31,240 Speaker 4: minutes after the game to hear from him the people 242 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:34,079 Speaker 4: he begged to be there, and then he doesn't walk out. 243 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 4: That's what got me, the asking people to show up 244 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 4: and then you don't show up. Even if you don't 245 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 4: have the right answers, the kids out there with the 246 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 4: basketball out, you can still send a few people home 247 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:46,680 Speaker 4: with smiles. I mean the radio crowd. You might not please, 248 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 4: but there's still a few people there that can have 249 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 4: a positive night if you show up. Maybe it's kid's 250 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 4: first game. You just watched his team get their butt kicked, 251 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:55,839 Speaker 4: maybe they get their balls siund and go home with 252 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:58,439 Speaker 4: a smile. You did even show your face. I couldn't 253 00:11:58,440 --> 00:11:58,840 Speaker 4: believe it. 254 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:00,720 Speaker 2: I mean Wednesday night he did it for just a 255 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 2: handful of minutes and goes listen, I'm tired, I gotta go. 256 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 2: And then after a loss and then Saturday doesn't do 257 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:15,320 Speaker 2: it at all. I just think you that used to 258 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,320 Speaker 2: be the thing you were the best at. You got 259 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:20,200 Speaker 2: this program.

And I you know, those folks that some 269 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,560 Speaker 2: of the younger folks have didn't really live through those 270 00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 2: early years where he was doing all that stuff. But 271 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:03,679 Speaker 2: he's there.

The 327 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 2: guy called the postgame show, I thought he was serious. 328 00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 2: I think he was kidding, but it goes to show 329 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:44,280 Speaker 2: you that he could have been serious when he said, 330 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,240 Speaker 2: you know, matt our defense is not as bad as 331 00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 2: you think. We're good as long as they don't set 332 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 2: a pick, and he was like, ninety four percent of 333 00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:53,240 Speaker 2: the plays a pick is said, they score, and like 334 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 2: that was a joke, but like I actually could have 335 00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:56,560 Speaker 2: believed it. 336 00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,240 Speaker 3: Yeah I did. I'm believing it right now. 337 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 2: You know, I could have believed it because we it 338 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 2: felt like Tennessee could get Drew any shot they wanted 339 00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 2: at any point. 340 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:12,680 Speaker 4: We'll never know what happens in practice. But now that 341 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 4: it's been weeks of the baseline stuff, Okay, I don't 342 00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:19,360 Speaker 4: understand something that I'm not being a smart ass legit 343 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 4: middle schoolers know how to stop. They have not seemed 344 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 4: to have made one adjustment. Brian, This, I know drives 345 00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 4: you as crazy as he was. 346 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:31,920 Speaker 3: And not just once twice, and not just layups slam dunks. 347 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:35,040 Speaker 2: I mean they got two layups and two wide open 348 00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 2: threes and they had ten points without without doing anything 349 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 2: but throwing the ball to the guy that's open those dunks. 350 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 2: I mean, Jimmy Dikes again, you are at the game, 351 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:52,000 Speaker 2: he says, I don't know why Reed Shepherd's back is 352 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 2: to the ball. He goes, I've never seen anyone do that, 353 00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 2: and he did it the whole game. He did it 354 00:16:57,720 --> 00:16:59,480 Speaker 2: the whole game, and he's done it the last few games. 355 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 2: And Jimmy literally was like, I don't, I don't know 356 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:04,560 Speaker 2: why he does that. Well, clearly he does it because 357 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:06,240 Speaker 2: no one tells him not to do it. Maybe they've 358 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:08,480 Speaker 2: told him to do it because he's been doing it 359 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:10,360 Speaker 2: for the last dunks. 360 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:13,640 Speaker 4: No one of the ones where Connect got a dunk, Reid. 361 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 4: You're supposed to be in between the inbounds and the goal, 362 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:17,920 Speaker 4: and it's like he's trying to guard them from getting 363 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:19,639 Speaker 4: to the tunnel to go to the locker room. Like 364 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 4: he's not even in a position. I don't even know 365 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 4: what he's guarding. He's like completely a no man's land 366 00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:24,920 Speaker 4: with his handout. 367 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:27,720 Speaker 3: You know, and Rick Barnes is no dummy. He knows 368 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:30,399 Speaker 3: Kentucky's only going to play man to man, so he 369 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:34,120 Speaker 3: can design plays that he knows, or we're gonna get 370 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 3: lost on it. It's gonna work on out of bounds 371 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:37,200 Speaker 3: play time and time again. 372 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:41,040 Speaker 2: And you can tell Jimmy Didykes really likes Cal, but 373 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 2: I have felt like the whole game he was like 374 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 2: close to going what are you doing? Cal? Like you 375 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:48,960 Speaker 2: could tell like you could kind of hear his voice 376 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:52,679 Speaker 2: going uh huh, what what is going on? Like it 377 00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:56,639 Speaker 2: was it was amazing and what And then you know, 378 00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 2: you start to think about the bigger picture numbers. And 379 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:04,480 Speaker 2: I read a lot of numbers yesterday, but the one 380 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 2: that I think got the biggest reaction, Shannon was my 381 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:11,560 Speaker 2: s was my NCAA tournament number last night? Did you 382 00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:13,679 Speaker 2: see that on Twitter? No? 383 00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:14,320 Speaker 5: I don't think I did. 384 00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 2: So here's my numbers since since twenty seventeen. The Fox 385 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 2: Monk bamdah. So I'm giving us credit for our Elite 386 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:27,800 Speaker 2: eight run in twenty nineteen, okay, all right, which I 387 00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:30,120 Speaker 2: could start with the COVID year, but then everybody go, oh, 388 00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 2: you're just starting with the COVID year. So I actually 389 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 2: go back to a couple of years where we played. 390 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:36,359 Speaker 2: All right, I'm gonna read you the amount of NCAA 391 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:41,439 Speaker 2: tournament wins for programs starting with the twenty eighteen tournament, 392 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:46,640 Speaker 2: so basically for people the last five NCAA tournaments, because 393 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:52,639 Speaker 2: in twenty twenty we didn't have one Gonzaga fifteen, Kansas thirteen, 394 00:18:53,200 --> 00:19:01,000 Speaker 2: Villanova thirteen, Houston twelve, Duke ten, Baylor nine, Michigan nine, 395 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:08,200 Speaker 2: North Carolina eight, Ucla eight, Michigan State eight, Arkansas eight, 396 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:17,520 Speaker 2: Auburn eight, Kentucky six one since twenty nineteen? That hurts? 397 00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:19,520 Speaker 3: Does that happen? How is it happened? 398 00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:22,000 Speaker 5: With all the talent that they've had throughout those years, 399 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:22,840 Speaker 5: you get one? 400 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 2: I mean that's brutal, But that is brutal. And when 401 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,439 Speaker 2: people say, and I read this a lot, now you 402 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:35,440 Speaker 2: don't get it. There's so much more parody now parody parody. Okay, fine, 403 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:39,200 Speaker 2: then how do you explain Gonzaga fifteenth, Yeah, Kansas thirteen, 404 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:43,120 Speaker 2: Duke ten, North Carolina eight. And I also note some 405 00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:48,639 Speaker 2: of these teams this numbers about to go up, Kansas, Houston, Duke, 406 00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:52,680 Speaker 2: North Carolina, their numbers are going up this year. Now 407 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 2: some of them aren't. Gonzaga probably won't, Baylor's going up, 408 00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:01,439 Speaker 2: Michigan won't. Except but Tennessee we always make fun how 409 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 2: much do we make fun of Rick Barnes in the 410 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:07,360 Speaker 2: Postseas don't know how many? Tennessee has six exact same 411 00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:07,960 Speaker 2: amount as that. 412 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:10,919 Speaker 3: And they haven't been to an elite eight. So at 413 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 3: least they're consistently winning a couple of games every year. 414 00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 2: They have six. By the way, I left some teams out. 415 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:18,719 Speaker 2: Virginia has seven. I mean there's a lot there are 416 00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 2: more teams that have more than us. 417 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:24,200 Speaker 3: But that hurts. That stings a little bit. 418 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:29,040 Speaker 4: And one since twenty nineteen, I hate heard about parody 419 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,480 Speaker 4: in the SEC two. While we're on the subject, I 420 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:34,119 Speaker 4: know because Kentucky's records down, Like I say, the league's harder. 421 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,159 Speaker 4: Alabama has one loss last year. They had two losses 422 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:38,719 Speaker 4: the year before that. I think they had two losses 423 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:41,119 Speaker 4: last year. Auburn had two losses maybe three of the 424 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 4: year before that. Those teams are having the same records 425 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 4: that Kentucky was having when the every won in the league. 426 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 4: It's like we just flip places with them. Yeah, the 427 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:50,480 Speaker 4: league's so much harder. How are they still going sixteen 428 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 4: to two? 429 00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:55,400 Speaker 2: Objectively? If you look since twenty eighteen, be totally objective. 430 00:20:56,560 --> 00:21:00,040 Speaker 2: In the regular season, we're probably fourth best in the 431 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:04,240 Speaker 2: conference behind Auburn, Tennessee and Alabama. We're probably still ahead 432 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 2: of Arkansas. If you throw in the postseason, Arkansas's probably 433 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:10,000 Speaker 2: a head of Oh and we're probably fifth best in 434 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:13,120 Speaker 2: the SEC since twenty eighteen. So I don't care what 435 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:18,440 Speaker 2: your argument is for parody. There should never ever ever 436 00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:20,639 Speaker 2: be a time at Kentucky where we're not either the 437 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:24,919 Speaker 2: first or second best program consistently in the conference. And 438 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,679 Speaker 2: in the last six years we've been fourth maybe fifth. 439 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:31,440 Speaker 2: To me, that's all you need to say right there. 440 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:34,440 Speaker 2: We'll take your calls me right back. This KSR TJ. 441 00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 2: Smith personal injury attorney call TJ. He'll make them pay. 442 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:41,919 Speaker 5: Now more of Kentucky Sports Radio presented by Stockton Mortgage. 443 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 5: Here's Matt Jones. 444 00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:46,879 Speaker 2: Welcome back, Take you Sports Radio A five, twenty two 445 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 2: eighty seven, one person rights on the text machine. Matt, 446 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,120 Speaker 2: I listen to your postgame show. I think it's good 447 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:54,120 Speaker 2: you just let the fans talk. But some of them 448 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 2: seem very angry. Were you surprised? No, I actually thought 449 00:21:57,800 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 2: people would be angry. They were like two people were 450 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:01,159 Speaker 2: really angry out there would be more than that. I 451 00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:02,920 Speaker 2: also thought there'd be a couple of people they'll call 452 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 2: in to sort of take up and be positive. We 453 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:09,240 Speaker 2: really didn't have any of that, you know, So, where 454 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:11,280 Speaker 2: do you think the fan base is real? Quick? Like, 455 00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 2: do you think the fan base. I know what, I 456 00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:16,919 Speaker 2: think the read on the fan base is ryan. You 457 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:19,200 Speaker 2: talk to a different kind of fan than I do. 458 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:24,679 Speaker 2: I probably talk to the you know, thirty five to 459 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 2: forty five, thirty to forty five year old fan, and 460 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 2: then the online fan. So I think that's it. You 461 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:32,320 Speaker 2: kind of talk to fifty and over fan? 462 00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 3: Where do you think they are extremely extremely frustrated. I 463 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 3: think it's maybe just a coummilation of the last couple 464 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:45,879 Speaker 3: of years, But I think this week it's probably the 465 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:49,000 Speaker 3: most frustration I've felt maybe since I've been here. 466 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:50,120 Speaker 2: Is that right? 467 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 3: I mean, because it's just you see the talent, you 468 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:54,439 Speaker 3: see the players, you know they should be better, and 469 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 3: it's just the whole defensive thing. I think is what 470 00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 3: from my generation, You know, we were defense wins championships. 471 00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:01,879 Speaker 3: You play good efinch, you're gonna win. And you had 472 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:04,920 Speaker 3: a team Tennessee that scored what fifty nine points their 473 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:07,160 Speaker 3: previous game, and they come in and had fifty three 474 00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:08,560 Speaker 3: in the second half against. 475 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,320 Speaker 5: Seven in the second half, scored fifty nine for the 476 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 5: entire game against South Carrol. 477 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 3: That's crazy. 478 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 2: I mean, Dree, you talked to similar people to me 479 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:19,920 Speaker 2: but they're pretty bad. Oh yeah, yeah, I I there's 480 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:22,359 Speaker 2: some positivity out there. I haven't scanned every corner big 481 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 2: Blue Nation, but I'd say I've only mostly negative in 482 00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 2: my friends people in my life. It's almost all get 483 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:32,399 Speaker 2: them out of here. My text messages were basically just 484 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:34,240 Speaker 2: nine million dollars is all they said. 485 00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:37,080 Speaker 4: As that game ended. I'd say that people in Raperina, 486 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 4: cal heard a lot of that. Walking out of the tonnel. 487 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 4: I could hear it from where I was sitting, so 488 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:42,840 Speaker 4: I know he heard it. So there's a lot of 489 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:45,080 Speaker 4: people that are just completely done. 490 00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:45,720 Speaker 2: Now. 491 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:47,960 Speaker 4: There are a few that are still on, but I'd 492 00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 4: say overall it is a lot of frustration in some 493 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:52,680 Speaker 4: past the breaking point. 494 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 2: I want to give you one more number so you 495 00:23:57,359 --> 00:23:58,560 Speaker 2: remember what it was like at the end of the 496 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:01,800 Speaker 2: Tubby are yes. One of our younger fans were we're 497 00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 2: little kids during that, so they may not remember it 498 00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:06,200 Speaker 2: at all. But at the end of the Tubby era, 499 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:09,640 Speaker 2: it was pretty much universal agreement it needed to end. 500 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,919 Speaker 2: Even the people who really liked him, like me, I 501 00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 2: was much more of a Tubby. If there was a 502 00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:19,920 Speaker 2: scale of Tubby supporters slash Tubby detractors, I was towards 503 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 2: the upper end of the Tubby supporters scale was two. 504 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 2: So I'm going to give you the last five years 505 00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:29,400 Speaker 2: of Kentucky NCAA terms. So I just did, We've won 506 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:31,880 Speaker 2: six games. Let's go look at the last five years 507 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 2: of Tubby. Okay, two thousand and seven they won one 508 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 2: tournament game. Two thousand and six, they won one. That's two. 509 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:41,400 Speaker 2: Two thousand and five they won three. That's five. Two 510 00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:44,400 Speaker 2: thousand and four they won one. That's six. And then 511 00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:48,040 Speaker 2: in two thousand and five they won three. Excuse me, 512 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 2: two thousand and three they won three. So they had 513 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:54,440 Speaker 2: nine tournament wins in five years. And this fan base 514 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:56,240 Speaker 2: was like, get him out. 515 00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:57,880 Speaker 3: Yep. Ten lost Tubby, get him out? 516 00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:01,320 Speaker 2: That was five. Let me just tell you that was 517 00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:05,800 Speaker 2: nine tournament wins to CAWS six. During that period. We 518 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:09,760 Speaker 2: were the number one overall seed twice, right the number 519 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:13,360 Speaker 2: So we had regular season success during those five years. 520 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:18,200 Speaker 2: You know how I said, We've won two combined SEC 521 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:24,640 Speaker 2: or tournament titles. Tubby won five. Tubby had nine tournament wins, 522 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:30,479 Speaker 2: five SEC regular season or tournament wins. Cal's had six 523 00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 2: and two, and everyone was ready for Tubby to go. Yep. 524 00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 3: I think that what I'm probably gonna miss one, but 525 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:42,960 Speaker 3: Tubby had Rondo, Chuck Hayes, Keith Bogan's that a three 526 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:46,840 Speaker 3: NBA players. Hell, there's seven on this team now. 527 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 2: And that gets me to my final point, which is 528 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:53,880 Speaker 2: about what happened Friday. So we do the show, Shannon, 529 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 2: I leave, I have to go to the dentist. Who 530 00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:59,520 Speaker 2: wants to go to the dentist in there about an hour. 531 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 2: So when I leave, all the comments I look at 532 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:06,120 Speaker 2: the comments from the show. Pretty much universal positivity was nice, 533 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:08,480 Speaker 2: with all the people at Kentucky Branded saying hey to him, 534 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:12,240 Speaker 2: et cetera. No negative. I get, I go to the dentist. 535 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:16,119 Speaker 2: I get out at like two o'clock, and all of 536 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:20,080 Speaker 2: a sudden, my phone is blowing up with people not 537 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:24,480 Speaker 2: just furious, like Matt Jones ruins the program, and I'm like, 538 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 2: what are people? 539 00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:25,679 Speaker 5: What? 540 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:30,479 Speaker 2: And I go and find the sort of basis of it, 541 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:33,520 Speaker 2: and it's that a handful of accounts had said that 542 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:37,040 Speaker 2: me and Drew had basically said DJ Wagner and quit 543 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:38,560 Speaker 2: the team or was going to quit the. 544 00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:40,240 Speaker 3: TA, which was never said. 545 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:44,960 Speaker 2: It wasn't even hinted at. No. I go back and 546 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:48,560 Speaker 2: listen just to make sure, like all right, was there anything? 547 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 2: It was literally, it was just us talking about how 548 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 2: there were some onlineer points, like reports that he had 549 00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:00,600 Speaker 2: taken all his UK stuff off his Instagram, which turned 550 00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 2: out to be false. I said, I have no idea 551 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:06,159 Speaker 2: if that's true, and I'm not even on it. You 552 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 2: said you didn't know. We noted that there. I think 553 00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:12,679 Speaker 2: you said, Drew, there were some conspiracy theories, but you 554 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 2: and I both praised what he was like on the bench, 555 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:18,560 Speaker 2: and we both made our predictions at the end as 556 00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:19,679 Speaker 2: if he was going to play. 557 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:21,879 Speaker 4: Yeah, I even said they'd lose the Shannon It was 558 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:23,640 Speaker 4: Shannon's prediction that they'd lose if he didn't play. 559 00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 2: And yet all of a sudden I became like the 560 00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:32,359 Speaker 2: scourge of Big Blue Nation, and all of these people 561 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:35,000 Speaker 2: were like, Matt has led the charge against Cal. The 562 00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:37,720 Speaker 2: fans don't like Cal because of Matt. Just all this 563 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:39,639 Speaker 2: crazy stuff, and I just wanted to go, did you 564 00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:42,920 Speaker 2: all live through the tubby Smith era? I didn't even 565 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 2: have a radio show then, And as I just showed you, 566 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:50,040 Speaker 2: they ran him out for far more success during that 567 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:55,399 Speaker 2: period than Col's had. Now, I'm not gonna sit here 568 00:27:55,440 --> 00:28:00,359 Speaker 2: and spend the day, like defending myself. But I admit, Ryan, 569 00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:04,439 Speaker 2: I couldn't believe it. And the way that people thought 570 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:11,240 Speaker 2: that somehow coming at me was like that, like we 571 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 2: were the ruin of the Kentucky basketball program is absolutely 572 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:20,120 Speaker 2: crazy to me. Nobody in the world wants this program 573 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:23,760 Speaker 2: to win more than us, not just as fans. I 574 00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 2: literally sometimes can't watch games. I'm so nervous. But if 575 00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:30,840 Speaker 2: you just think I'm not a fan, just from a 576 00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 2: business perspective, it's so much better when we win. Wouldn't 577 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:37,680 Speaker 2: we love to be celebrating beating Tennessee on this show 578 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 2: and talking trash? Ryan, I have to tell you, you know, 579 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:44,400 Speaker 2: I'm used to getting criticized. I've been, you know, when 580 00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:48,080 Speaker 2: I taught politics, criticized for any u case. But I 581 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:50,640 Speaker 2: couldn't believe it. Friday. I could not believe it. And 582 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:54,720 Speaker 2: I luckily kind of was able to, you know, do 583 00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:58,640 Speaker 2: other stuff and get away from it. But I I 584 00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:00,440 Speaker 2: couldn't believe it. Uh. 585 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 3: It's it's totally and. 586 00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:04,760 Speaker 2: No one and none of them had listened to it. Sure, 587 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:07,440 Speaker 2: none of them had listened to what it said. Because 588 00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:09,720 Speaker 2: when it did go up, somebody put the clip up. 589 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:11,560 Speaker 2: People were like that's what everybody's upset about. 590 00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 3: But somebody who already had an agenda against you, probably 591 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 3: for political reasons, put something out there and it takes off, 592 00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:22,720 Speaker 3: you know, not warranted, unfair for like you said that, 593 00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 3: people don't even hear it. They just think they see 594 00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:28,040 Speaker 3: something online and think, oh, that's that's the reason Kentucky 595 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,360 Speaker 3: basketball is playing bad because it's Matt Jones. 596 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 2: Do you remember Shanon the amount of people that said, 597 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 2: I don't listen anymore, but Matt is a blah blah 598 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:38,480 Speaker 2: blah blah blah blah blah stuff from the show, So yeah, 599 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 2: I don't listen anymore. But you're way too negative. Well then, 600 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:44,040 Speaker 2: how in the world would you even know that. 601 00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:47,120 Speaker 5: It's like we do all the time if we don't 602 00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 5: listen to the clutter, Yet you can point out specific 603 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:51,440 Speaker 5: things that that we would say. 604 00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:54,840 Speaker 2: So you know, listen. I appreciate many listeners did take 605 00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 2: up for us. I got tons of encouraging message. I 606 00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:00,360 Speaker 2: just I have to tell you I wasn't prepared for, Like, 607 00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:04,040 Speaker 2: I didn't see that coming, and I you know. 608 00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:07,160 Speaker 3: Fans are frustrated that you're not the poster child for 609 00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 3: what's going on with Kentucky. Basketball. 610 00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 2: I mean, listen, I like to think that we've had 611 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:13,920 Speaker 2: a heck of a success here. But if we are 612 00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:16,480 Speaker 2: not that powerful, there's still a huge part of this 613 00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:19,560 Speaker 2: fan base it has no idea who any of us are, true, 614 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:23,200 Speaker 2: you know, so like, come on, give me a break. 615 00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 4: Also, where's this energy when SEC coaches are laughing because 616 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 4: their game plans are working perfectly playing against our basketball team. 617 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 4: I mean, listen, Florida's coach after they beat us it 618 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:37,640 Speaker 4: got lost in the shuffle, but basically laughed at UK. 619 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:41,960 Speaker 4: He basically laughed at UK and said because cal Perry 620 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 4: come up and there and said, you know, we beat 621 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 4: him on every stat but one. And Florida's coach pulled 622 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:50,400 Speaker 4: out the stats and read them and goes, that's just 623 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:54,280 Speaker 4: factually incorrect. 624 00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:58,080 Speaker 2: You know, so that's not on KSR.

I mean, honestly, that's 660 00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 2: like your your dad telling a teenager you don't want 661 00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 2: to like that music like the Eagles. 662 00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:54,440 Speaker 4: And he's told us three times this year. It's a 663 00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:56,120 Speaker 4: little weird, but he's like, he went to a Phillies 664 00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:57,440 Speaker 4: game and he's like, I just want you all to 665 00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:00,320 Speaker 4: be like Philadelphia. It was so passionate there. It's like 666 00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:01,040 Speaker 4: a weird comparison. 667 00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 2: Already, they boo everybody, they boost saying. 668 00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:07,520 Speaker 4: But he keeps bringing up this baseball game he went to. 669 00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:09,480 Speaker 4: We got to be like these baseball games. 670 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:13,200 Speaker 2: I I well, I think we're gonna get into a 671 00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,680 Speaker 2: situation where we're in a marriage where people it's two 672 00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:19,200 Speaker 2: groups of people that really just get annoyed by each other, 673 00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:20,600 Speaker 2: don't you. Yeah. 674 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 3: And I think he even said it himself. I know 675 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:24,560 Speaker 3: Tubby said it. I think joe By Hall said it's 676 00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 3: a ten year shelf life for this job, and after 677 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 3: about getting back to that tenth year, it does seem 678 00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:32,880 Speaker 3: to kind of get a little rocky. And we've seen 679 00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:34,160 Speaker 3: we're seeing it again right now. 680 00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, we are. And by the way, those two other coaches, 681 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 2: their last five years were better than this last five years. 682 00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 2: They just were. I mean, that's that's just a fact. 683 00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:47,040 Speaker 4: When Gonzaga gets here Saturday, it could be up against 684 00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:49,480 Speaker 4: the first time ever lost three games at home ever 685 00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:50,880 Speaker 4: in the history of the program. 686 00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:54,200 Speaker 2: We're gonna win that one, hopefully.

I don't know why, but I wish he 709 00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:53,200 Speaker 2: would just get back to what that was because that 710 00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:56,799 Speaker 2: person was my favorite coach of all time.

You're defending your divisive actions. Who put the 715 00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:12,719 Speaker 2: crown on your head to be UK's voice, that's your doing. Yeah, 716 00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:14,440 Speaker 2: I've come on here all the time. Shit, and I 717 00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:17,520 Speaker 2: said the voice, I'm the voice of UK. Look, you 718 00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:20,480 Speaker 2: know the krown is yours? Yes, true? Now the crowd 719 00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:24,120 Speaker 2: is yours and DraftKings. No one makes you folks listen. 720 00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:28,440 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, I'm glad people listen. But like 721 00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:31,720 Speaker 2: we've never claimed to be the voice of UK sports. 722 00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:33,960 Speaker 2: We're the voice of us and a lot of people 723 00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:38,040 Speaker 2: enjoy it. But like, if you give my words outside 724 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:44,360 Speaker 2: outside importance, that's you that's doing. I will make this argument. 725 00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:47,640 Speaker 2: The people that blasted that quote blasted me and you 726 00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:50,640 Speaker 2: for quote unquote spreading DJ rumors, which we didn't even do. 727 00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:53,480 Speaker 2: You all gave those rumors more life than we did 728 00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:58,040 Speaker 2: because no one said anything after we said it. Everybody 729 00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:01,600 Speaker 2: moved on with their lives. You all are the ones 730 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:04,880 Speaker 2: that made it. It's the Barber streisand effect, right, yep, 731 00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:07,960 Speaker 2: you know I say, we see it all the time 732 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:11,400 Speaker 2: in society. The outrage is a lot bigger than the act. 733 00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:17,080 Speaker 2: So anyway, at the end of the day, we all 734 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:20,879 Speaker 2: want this team to win, and Saturday was if we're 735 00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:22,319 Speaker 2: on it's kind of an embarrassment. 736 00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:27,799 Speaker 3: It was one embarrassment because they beat Kentucky down. Like 737 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:30,320 Speaker 3: I said, from start to finish, that was a beat 738 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:34,040 Speaker 3: down at home by your rival, your second loss at home. 739 00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:37,000 Speaker 3: And Drew said that if they lose to gonzag on side, 740 00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:39,000 Speaker 3: he'd be three losses in a row. I can't fathom that. 741 00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:40,000 Speaker 3: I can't even fathom that. 742 00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:42,000 Speaker 2: I don't want to think about that right now. Who's next? 743 00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:43,160 Speaker 5: Shait Shane from Grayson? 744 00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:45,040 Speaker 2: Shane from Grayson?

And 754 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:13,440 Speaker 9: I think we're more like plusy kittens than we are dogs. 755 00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:18,200 Speaker 2: Well you all think, well, appreciate the call. I will say, 756 00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:21,640 Speaker 2: I still think his first eight years here were awesome. 757 00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:24,839 Speaker 2: That run from twenty ten to twenty seventeen is gonna 758 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:27,520 Speaker 2: be hard to ever duplicate. But at the end of 759 00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:32,760 Speaker 2: the day, you have to judge what we have now. Right, 760 00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:36,719 Speaker 2: It's like an aging quarterback in the NFL. All right, 761 00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:39,839 Speaker 2: you can sit there and say, man, he was really 762 00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:43,160 Speaker 2: good six years ago, but you got to talk about 763 00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:46,879 Speaker 2: the guy you're putting on the field now right, Joey 764 00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:48,279 Speaker 2: voddo with the Reds. 765 00:37:48,360 --> 00:37:49,640 Speaker 4: My Derreck Henry right now? 766 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:51,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, so let me do Vodo because I know 767 00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:55,920 Speaker 2: him better. I wasn't really around. Voda was great, but 768 00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:59,120 Speaker 2: I see the Vado that hits two hundred and only 769 00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:01,480 Speaker 2: gets hits rarely when it matters. 770 00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:02,479 Speaker 3: That guy. 771 00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:04,719 Speaker 2: The Reds had to say, that's we gotta let you 772 00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:07,160 Speaker 2: go man, right, and that had to be hard. He 773 00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:12,560 Speaker 2: played there forever, but he wasn't the same guy.
