Speaker 5: trying to make uh it look this studio look presentable

27
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:28,120
Speaker 5: for the NFL podcast, and it's it's I don't know.

28
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 4: First of all, I don't know who lit this room.

29
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 5: This loom room was lit by somebody who's never been

30
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 5: on a television screen at any point.

31
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:37,960
Speaker 4: They have the lights shin and right above our head.

32
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 2: They look to be white lights too, like.

33
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:43,560
Speaker 5: That and they are like literally they they they make

34
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 5: everyone's face look think about the worst version of yourself

35
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:52,440
Speaker 5: in the mirror. This seems to be designed to look

36
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 5: like that. You know when TV they teach you keep

37
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 5: the light in front of you, facing you a little bit,

38
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 5: like to make you flush. This is over our head

39
00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 5: behind us. We look like we're dead. And this was designed.

40
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:11,040
Speaker 4: This isn't even that old. This was designed like this

41
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 4: is the new studio. I do like that.

42
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 6: iHeart is putting more into us looking good than me

43
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 6: and you put into ourselves actually looking good.

44
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 4: What are you talking about moisturizer?

45
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:22,920
Speaker 6: I too, I got a little line, but I mean

46
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:26,800
Speaker 6: they're really working hard, and.

47
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 5: They're trying to fix what was the worst lip. I mean,

48
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:32,720
Speaker 5: I'm not gonna say which one, but everybody knows there's

49
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:36,239
Speaker 5: a TV station in town that is one notch below

50
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:36,800
Speaker 5: the others.

51
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 4: They're trying.

52
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:41,680
Speaker 5: They try like Ricky Steamboat. They try really hard. They

53
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:44,799
Speaker 5: do the best they can all. One thing that would

54
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:47,160
Speaker 5: help them is if they would like the thing correctly,

55
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:50,240
Speaker 5: same thing here. This is terrible, but they're trying to

56
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 5: fix it. Mario's Mario and Nathan and Billy. They've got

57
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 5: things hanging everywhere. But we really just need to tear

58
00:02:57,560 --> 00:02:58,839
Speaker 5: this place down and start over.

59
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 4: Don't you think this brand new building in downtown, like

60
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 4: I mean, there's Shannon. There's five TVs in here.

61
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 5: Only one is even hooked up to it the enter

62
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,240
Speaker 5: like to cable or like. Four of these TVs have

63
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 5: never been turned off.

64
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 2: See a black screen behind you right now, right behind

65
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 2: the herd.

66
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:17,639
Speaker 5: This thing can't get any channel, so it just reflects light.

67
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 4: It's just terrible. I've only seen this Roku screensaver fish tank.

68
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,680
Speaker 5: The only thing that's ever on this table is Pat

69
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:25,360
Speaker 5: McAfee or that or that fish.

70
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 4: I know these fish, I know their names. I know

71
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:28,400
Speaker 4: when they bounce off.

72
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:33,600
Speaker 5: The corners signed this thing failed architecture school. Hopefully it

73
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 5: gets fixed in the next two weeks. Uh, we got

74
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 5: We have a lot to talk about. Let's start first

75
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 5: before I get to the big news. Alan Cutler said

76
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 5: you could kiss his ass, Shannon, and I think you,

77
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 5: I think you have to respond to that because you're

78
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 5: being called out to a fight by seventy one year

79
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 5: old man.

80
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 2: Nor do I care.

81
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 3: I'm currently suffering from a failure to give a damn

82
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 3: about anything that Alan Cutler says.

83
00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 2: Now he said, he's.

84
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 4: Said that you could kiss his his a.

85
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 2: He's getting really feisty. I mean, I don't care.

86
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 3: Again, I don't care what Adam Allen, Adam Allen Adamler says.

87
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 2: I don't care.

88
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 5: I tried to listen to his thing. I listened to

89
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 5: a couple of minutes at all I heard he was

90
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 5: saying that you were the worst and Drew was the best.

91
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 6: And then someone someone texted me and says, Shannon, you

92
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:26,840
Speaker 6: can kiss my ass. Drew I like you tremendously in

93
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:28,159
Speaker 6: one breath. That's what he says.

94
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:29,919
Speaker 2: I'm glad that he's got two listeners.

95
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,920
Speaker 4: And I had heard the first couple of minutes.

96
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 5: But anyway, I thought that was funny and I wanted

97
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:39,719
Speaker 5: you to to be more, to be upset.

98
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 4: I can tell I can see your face. You are upset.

99
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 2: I'm not upset.

100
00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:45,840
Speaker 4: You might see it at an event, sou maybe a game.

101
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 4: Maybe you too, a five opening a KOs bar, he'll

102
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 4: talk too much. Well, we couldnt do that.

103
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:57,240
Speaker 5: I feel like when Captain Sountan threatened me at that game,

104
00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:58,920
Speaker 5: thought I was gonna have to get between you two.

105
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 4: He walked up to me at the Ducky Loan a football.

106
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,360
Speaker 5: Game and he was like, so do you want a piece?

107
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 5: And I was like a pie? I don't know, but

108
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 5: you know, then I walked away.

109
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 3: And it's so significant to say something bad about me

110
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:14,360
Speaker 3: that I might care.

111
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 4: That's what I'll tell Kirk Herbstream to give you a message.

112
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,039
Speaker 5: All right, So let's start with what I mean, I

113
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:25,920
Speaker 5: think is the most important piece of news. It broke

114
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:29,919
Speaker 5: during the show yesterday, and it's that UK and JMI

115
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 5: have signed a fifteen year deal for four hundred and

116
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:37,039
Speaker 5: sixty five million dollars. Just start right there. That's a

117
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:41,840
Speaker 5: lot of money. And that's thirty point three million dollars

118
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:47,200
Speaker 5: or no, thirty thirty one million dollars a year. So

119
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 5: that's a lot of money, you know. I I, as

120
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:57,000
Speaker 5: one person explained to me, this takes care of our

121
00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 5: rev share. And so as you're sitting here in your

122
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,360
Speaker 5: balancing the pros and the cons, start with the pro

123
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 5: The revshare is now paid for. By the way, what

124
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 5: I would say is when I start hearing UK raise

125
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,720
Speaker 5: other prices because of the rev share, I.

126
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:14,359
Speaker 4: Want you to remember that. One of the things that

127
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:15,120
Speaker 4: was explained to.

128
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 5: Me yesterday is the revshare is now paid for. So

129
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 5: as costs of other things go up, remember the rev

130
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 5: share is paid for by this just something to think about,

131
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 5: that's good. But I do think this is going to

132
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 5: be an extremely important change for the future of UK sports.

133
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:39,039
Speaker 5: And I sort of spent the last twenty four hours

134
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 5: kind of in my mind weighing the pros and the cons,

135
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 5: and I tend to come out of it pessimistic. Not like,

136
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 5: not that I think the apocalypse is coming, not that

137
00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:53,719
Speaker 5: I think it's the worst thing ever, but I'm pessimistic.

138
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,560
Speaker 5: And I will explain to you why I'm pessimistic. Now,

139
00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 5: you can be pessimistic and it still things can be good.

140
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 5: I was pessimistic stick about Mitch Barnhart leading us into

141
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:04,839
Speaker 5: the Annio era, and while it was a slow start,

142
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 5: I think he finished pretty well. But I'm pessimistic about

143
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 5: this for a number of reasons. But let me first

144
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 5: explain to you what has happened. So JMI is now

145
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 5: in charge of two important things. One is they are

146
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 5: now in charge of doing the quote unquote contracts for

147
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:26,640
Speaker 5: the athletes.

148
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:28,120
Speaker 4: Now, what does that mean?

149
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:33,680
Speaker 5: Of the twenty point six million dollars, every coach will

150
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:36,720
Speaker 5: be given a certain amount of money that they are

151
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 5: able to divvy up.

152
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:40,800
Speaker 4: Let's say, so let's say that.

153
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 5: Mark Stoops is told you will have fifteen million dollars

154
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:48,440
Speaker 5: Mark Stoops and the people on his staff, and that

155
00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,800
Speaker 5: will include I think it includes like a football. GM

156
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:54,560
Speaker 5: decide how they're going to spend that fifteen million dollars.

157
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 5: You know, it's up to them and they can decide

158
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 5: who's worth what. But let's say they decide Drew Franklin

159
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:08,640
Speaker 5: is worth one million dollars. Drew Fanklin may be demanding

160
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 5: two million dollars. That's where JMI will come in and

161
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:18,320
Speaker 5: have to negotiate that other million. As a practical phase,

162
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:21,000
Speaker 5: I would just say to people, this will come up

163
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:24,280
Speaker 5: with every good player. I actually think this JMI think

164
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,040
Speaker 5: is going to be bigger for basketball than football because

165
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:29,560
Speaker 5: it will be the basketball players that will demand more

166
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:31,480
Speaker 5: money than what the REV share gives.

167
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 4: Does that make sense.

168
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:35,200
Speaker 5: I think most football players what they get in the

169
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:39,120
Speaker 5: REV share will be their primary source of money for basketball.

170
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:41,800
Speaker 5: So I kind of see JMI as now being like

171
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:42,719
Speaker 5: eighty percent of.

172
00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:47,840
Speaker 4: A basketball GM. By the way, that's what Club Blue was.

173
00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:50,200
Speaker 4: Club Blue did most.

174
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:54,079
Speaker 5: Of their work in basketball. They did a little football,

175
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,120
Speaker 5: but it was mostly basketball. So I think what JMI

176
00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:59,560
Speaker 5: is going to be doing is mostly basketball, which is

177
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:00,800
Speaker 5: why I'm a little nervous.

178
00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 4: So that's part one of their jobs.

179
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 5: The second part of their job is when they get

180
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:10,280
Speaker 5: these guys, let's say they need a million dollars, they're

181
00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 5: gonna have to co come up with.

182
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:13,600
Speaker 4: Now.

183
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:18,559
Speaker 5: I was very worried yesterday that JMI was essentially locking

184
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,440
Speaker 5: these players in that if you signed with UK you

185
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 5: couldn't do your own outside deals. I'm told that's not

186
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 5: the case, so that makes me feel better. That was

187
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 5: a big concern. That was my big concern. One of

188
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 5: my big concerns. That makes me feel better. There will

189
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:36,160
Speaker 5: still be some athletes who will have the ability to

190
00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:38,560
Speaker 5: do their own thing. That's good, but it's still gonna

191
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 5: ultimately be jmi's responsibilities to negotiate the deals and to

192
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:46,679
Speaker 5: go and find the money.

193
00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:49,120
Speaker 4: Here's why that concerns me.

194
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:51,520
Speaker 5: And this is hard for me to talk about because

195
00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 5: JMI works with our station. I come on after the

196
00:09:55,040 --> 00:10:01,239
Speaker 5: postgame show. But if you go through history here, JMI

197
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:06,080
Speaker 5: in UK have a relationship that is very unique. JMI

198
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:10,079
Speaker 5: only does the media rights for three major schools, Kentucky,

199
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 5: Notre Dame in UCLA. They have a lot of small schools,

200
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 5: but they're the only ones they do the major schools for.

201
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 5: They work with a couple of other schools that name

202
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:20,440
Speaker 5: in their stadiums and stuff, but when it comes to

203
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:24,600
Speaker 5: being the primary media sponsor for a college, it's just

204
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 5: UK Notre.

205
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:26,440
Speaker 4: Dame in UCLA.

206
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 5: Guess how many schools JMI is taking on the role

207
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,640
Speaker 5: of being the Nile Group four.

208
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:40,160
Speaker 4: None. We're the only one. We're the only one. We

209
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 4: are the only.

210
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,320
Speaker 5: School in the country that will have a relationship like

211
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 5: this with JMI. Is that gonna work? We'll see how

212
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 5: many schools are doing this period well? Lear Field, that's

213
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:56,560
Speaker 5: who does the broadcasting for Louisville. They have a lot

214
00:10:56,600 --> 00:11:00,679
Speaker 5: of schools. They've got like fifty How many schools are

215
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:05,640
Speaker 5: they doing it for? Three Georgia, Ohio State and Texas.

216
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:10,040
Speaker 5: Those are pretty good schools. Learfield is taking on this role.

217
00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:14,480
Speaker 5: JMI is with those schools. But what worries me is A.

218
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:18,960
Speaker 5: Lear Field's good and B those schools are still keeping

219
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:23,200
Speaker 5: their private collectives. We are the only school that I

220
00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 5: can find who is getting rid of their private collective

221
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 5: and giving it all to one company. And we're giving

222
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:34,520
Speaker 5: it to one company who doesn't have any other schools.

223
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 5: So the caller who worried, well, what if it's UK

224
00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 5: or UCLA, how do they decide?

225
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:41,720
Speaker 4: UCLA is still doing their own thing. They're not letting

226
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:45,440
Speaker 4: jm I do it. So that's a lot of faith

227
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 4: in one company, wouldn't you agree? Oh yeah, let's say

228
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:50,560
Speaker 4: it was the best company in the world. That's a

229
00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 4: lot of faith.

230
00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:55,000
Speaker 5: I have had a complaint for a long time. If

231
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:57,360
Speaker 5: you've listened to the show, you know it's not unique.

232
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:00,600
Speaker 5: I've had a complaint that I don't think jm I

233
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:03,559
Speaker 5: is up to date on everything. All you gotta do

234
00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 5: is listen to the postgame show. You know privately they

235
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:12,640
Speaker 5: ban Drew from coming on the field. They didn't credential,

236
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,560
Speaker 5: like they were a big part of Mario not getting credential.

237
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 5: These are little things about KSR. But how do you

238
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:21,520
Speaker 5: look at today's modern world and go the social media

239
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:25,120
Speaker 5: creator for the biggest website shouldn't have a media credential.

240
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 5: You do it by being behind the times, right, I

241
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:34,840
Speaker 5: worry is this company that still sends us cease and

242
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 5: desist letters for putting on KSR, UK plays old miss

243
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:45,200
Speaker 5: and using the UK logo? Is this the company that's

244
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 5: gonna understand modern in ale.

245
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:50,160
Speaker 4: Deals I worry about.

246
00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:55,360
Speaker 5: We travel to all kinds of schools across the country.

247
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 5: Let me be very clear about this, and I said

248
00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:00,439
Speaker 5: this to someone at UK yesterday, so I'm not talking

249
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 5: out of school.

250
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 4: UK, of all the schools I've visited in the major.

251
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:12,720
Speaker 5: Conferences, is more behind on modern media dealing with modern

252
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:17,040
Speaker 5: media than any other school that we deal with. When

253
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:24,520
Speaker 5: it comes to media relations, UK gives less access to

254
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:29,439
Speaker 5: us than even the schools that were the road team

255
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:34,719
Speaker 5: for I can go to Tennessee and I can go

256
00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 5: to Louisville and they'll give me more access than when

257
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:40,319
Speaker 5: I'm in Reperena.

258
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:42,439
Speaker 4: Now, why should you care about that?

259
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 5: You probably shouldn't, except the people that were making those

260
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:51,520
Speaker 5: decisions are now making all the decisions. As I said

261
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:57,520
Speaker 5: on social media, UK Athletics is now JMI and JMI

262
00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:01,520
Speaker 5: is now UK Athletics. Will it work?

263
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:02,880
Speaker 4: I hope.

264
00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:06,319
Speaker 5: So I wrote the CEO or the CEO of JMI

265
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 5: and I said, hey, would you like to talk this week?

266
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:13,800
Speaker 5: She said yes, So I will do that and I

267
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,720
Speaker 5: will recommend what I think and she can feel free

268
00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:17,600
Speaker 5: to ignore.

269
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:18,000
Speaker 4: It or whatever.

270
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 5: But I am concerned because the thing that has always

271
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:28,880
Speaker 5: been the best to me about UK sports is obviously

272
00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 5: the games. But we've been pretty good at the business

273
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:36,560
Speaker 5: side of things, wouldn't you agree, And in this Nile

274
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:39,200
Speaker 5: era by having the people that they were doing the

275
00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 5: contracts before, I think we had pretty smart people doing it.

276
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:48,000
Speaker 5: The weakness has always been to me, the modernization to

277
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 5: the new world of media. Well, now the people that

278
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:55,960
Speaker 5: were in charge of that are in charge of everything,

279
00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:58,160
Speaker 5: and that worries me.

280
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 4: Is it fixable?

281
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 7: Sure?

282
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:06,040
Speaker 4: Are there smart people there, Sure are there nice people there? Sure?

283
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 5: But we are giving what I think is the hardest

284
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:13,480
Speaker 5: thing for a basketball and football program to do recruit players.

285
00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:17,960
Speaker 5: That's the hardest thing to do. We are now essentially

286
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:24,120
Speaker 5: turning a huge part of that over to a private company, and.

287
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:24,720
Speaker 4: It worries me.

288
00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 5: It would worry me if I was a lear Field school,

289
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 5: and it probably worries them too because they're still keeping

290
00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 5: their private collectives.

291
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 4: But we now have no fallback plan.

292
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:42,560
Speaker 5: If JMI is not good, we're not gonna get players.

293
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 4: If they are, maybe it still will work.

294
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:52,000
Speaker 5: I can tell you I had multiple people write me

295
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 5: from other schools and go, you should be a little

296
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 5: worried about this. I'm talking coaches from like other SEC schools.

297
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,280
Speaker 5: I think gets nerve wracking. Now they're gonna get a

298
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 5: ton of money. I'm gonna guess uk is gonna get

299
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 5: more money from their local media deal than probably any

300
00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 5: school in the country.

301
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:11,440
Speaker 4: That's good.

302
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:15,240
Speaker 5: Some of the worries we've had about are we gonna

303
00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:18,480
Speaker 5: have the revenue to compete? That's probably taken care of,

304
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:23,560
Speaker 5: so that's good. But are we gonna be able to

305
00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:28,200
Speaker 5: be in a world where the rules drew can change overnight?

306
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:34,000
Speaker 5: We are locked into a fifteen year deal with JMI,

307
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 5: and the one thing I've always worried about them.

308
00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:38,800
Speaker 4: Is are they modern?

309
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:45,120
Speaker 5: That's where I am on it. That's my concern. That's

310
00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:49,880
Speaker 5: my I don't wanna say frustration, but that's my worry is.

311
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:55,760
Speaker 5: And I'll finish with this. I use this example. This

312
00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:58,480
Speaker 5: is just in the realm of media. But listen to

313
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:00,680
Speaker 5: the example I'm using and then move.

314
00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:01,320
Speaker 4: It to recruiting.

315
00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 5: The Kentucky Derby this year invited fifty TikTok influencers to

316
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:09,600
Speaker 5: come and have all access to the Derby.

317
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:13,880
Speaker 4: Why did they do it? Because it's the future, new

318
00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 4: and younger audience.

319
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:18,959
Speaker 5: Drew and I are being invited to go to the

320
00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:25,600
Speaker 5: super Bowl, the NFL Playoffs, the combine, all the draft,

321
00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 5: all of that with access from the NFL.

322
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:33,480
Speaker 4: Right schools like an Old Miss, etc.

323
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:40,600
Speaker 5: Their media is allowed to go to practice. What happens

324
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:46,400
Speaker 5: at Kentucky right now, we couldn't get Mario a credential.

325
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 5: Drew has to stand outside instead of being on rupp Arena.

326
00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:57,400
Speaker 5: No media gets to see anything. I look at how

327
00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:02,199
Speaker 5: these other schools are adapting to the modernization of the world,

328
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:07,600
Speaker 5: and I think UK is far behind. Now that's gonna

329
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 5: be everything. It's not just gonna be media. It's gonna

330
00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:14,280
Speaker 5: be recruiting. It's gonna be fan interaction, it's gonna be tickets.

331
00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:17,000
Speaker 5: I don't know how you can't be a little bit

332
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 5: nervous about that. Eight five, nine, twenty two eighty seven.

333
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:23,160
Speaker 5: Will take a break, be right back. It's kiss are.

334
00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:25,840
Speaker 4: Is that what you say? To Alan?

335
00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:26,800
Speaker 2: That's right?

336
00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:28,320
Speaker 7: All right?

337
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 2: Fact to kiss? Says is it filter or no filter involved?

338
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:32,000
Speaker 2: A filter?

339
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:33,440
Speaker 5: At least, I think I'll let you have a filter.

340
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,360
Speaker 5: We don't need, we don't need any diseases being passed,

341
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:39,960
Speaker 5: passed back and forth. One person rides Matt, Okay, A

342
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:43,840
Speaker 5: lot of that sounds bad. Most positive thing the money.

343
00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:46,639
Speaker 5: It's a lot of money, huge, a lot of money.

344
00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:51,000
Speaker 5: Probably takes away one of the if not the biggest

345
00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:53,280
Speaker 5: concern going into the annil are, which is do you

346
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:55,720
Speaker 5: have the money to compete? UK now has the money

347
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 5: to compete. At least they have the rev share portion.

348
00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:01,800
Speaker 5: Whether they have the donor will wait and see. But

349
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:05,440
Speaker 5: they have the revshare portion, so that's a positive. Another

350
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:08,120
Speaker 5: person says, Matt, it sounds like your relationship with UK

351
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:10,960
Speaker 5: is broken. They're done with KSR. I don't think that's

352
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:14,280
Speaker 5: necessarily true. My relations our relationship with UK has been good.

353
00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:17,920
Speaker 5: Our relationship with JMI has been bad. UK has been

354
00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:21,119
Speaker 5: pretty good to us over the years, but they on

355
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,520
Speaker 5: the media side they had to do what JMI said,

356
00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:27,560
Speaker 5: and that has generally been bad. I'm hoping it's better.

357
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:30,439
Speaker 5: I'm glad they're gonna meet with me. But it's not

358
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,399
Speaker 5: about us. I'm just using us as an example to

359
00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:36,679
Speaker 5: show you problems that I think are going to happen

360
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:40,040
Speaker 5: with things that have nothing to do with us. So

361
00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:42,399
Speaker 5: let me just give you one theoretical problem. And I

362
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:44,640
Speaker 5: promise I'm gonna let Drew talk, because Drew has set

363
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:51,840
Speaker 5: there silent. No, I'm recruiting Mario Okay, for basketball, let's

364
00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:55,960
Speaker 5: say that. And it's down to Kentucky and Yukon. Yukon

365
00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:57,840
Speaker 5: has come in and said, we are going to give

366
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:00,760
Speaker 5: you three and a half million dollars of our refshare

367
00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:02,960
Speaker 5: money because we can do that because we ain't spending

368
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:07,480
Speaker 5: any money on football. And Kentucky comes in and they

369
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:10,200
Speaker 5: just can't give three and a half, but they can

370
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:15,240
Speaker 5: give two and say we'll get you the other one

371
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,640
Speaker 5: and a half through inile deals.

372
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,600
Speaker 4: Okay, JMI goes out.

373
00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:26,400
Speaker 5: JMI is only allowed to negotiate deals with UK official partners?

374
00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:29,200
Speaker 4: How much can you ask.

375
00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:36,520
Speaker 5: Of Drake's and Paul miller Ford At some point though,

376
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:38,400
Speaker 5: they're not going to be able to keep doing it.

377
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:43,480
Speaker 5: And if we don't have a private nil group a

378
00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:49,359
Speaker 5: collective to do it, what's gonna happen. We're probably gonna

379
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:53,640
Speaker 5: lose Mario right because we're making it to the where

380
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:57,080
Speaker 5: only one entity can officially do it and they can

381
00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:59,280
Speaker 5: only work with the partners they have.

382
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:02,680
Speaker 4: So where we getting this money?

383
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:07,000
Speaker 5: Which means we're gonna while everybody else has their private

384
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,679
Speaker 5: collectives that are coming together, We're still trying to go

385
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:13,360
Speaker 5: through a corporate structure that by its very nature limits

386
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:16,440
Speaker 5: the amount of people that it can talk to. How

387
00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:22,560
Speaker 5: much money can you ask from Morgan and Morgan? And

388
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:27,720
Speaker 5: then let's say the school needs money for a soccer stadium,

389
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 5: but we want to get Mario the player. It's the

390
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:37,000
Speaker 5: same entity drawing money for both of them. That's a

391
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:40,760
Speaker 5: problem in my opinion. And if it was such a

392
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:45,520
Speaker 5: great idea, why is no other school doing it? And

393
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:47,400
Speaker 5: why are the schools that are doing it with lear

394
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:52,960
Speaker 5: Field giving themselves an out by keeping their private collectives?

395
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:56,639
Speaker 4: I think that's a fair worried.

396
00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:59,960
Speaker 6: Drip, absolutely, and it comes at a time where everyone

397
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:03,879
Speaker 6: no one saw, certainly on the basketball side, where the

398
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:06,560
Speaker 6: previous model they just build put together one of the

399
00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:10,320
Speaker 6: best rosters in the country. There was never more confidence

400
00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:13,560
Speaker 6: in UK'SNIL operations than this spring when Pope was out

401
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:16,120
Speaker 6: there navigating the portal bringing players back. So right, when

402
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:18,879
Speaker 6: you think, all right, maybe we've got this thing figured

403
00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:21,360
Speaker 6: out and Kentucky's gonna be rolling, you hand it over

404
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:23,919
Speaker 6: to JMI and it's back to well. I mean, we

405
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:25,560
Speaker 6: hope they can pull it off, and if they do,

406
00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:27,159
Speaker 6: it will work out having it in house. But I

407
00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:30,760
Speaker 6: mean people, as you've said, fans not a high approval

408
00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:32,600
Speaker 6: rating for them on media as it is, and now

409
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:34,760
Speaker 6: you're giving them control of everything.

410
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:37,560
Speaker 5: I won't bore you with the legalities. But the other

411
00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:40,159
Speaker 5: thing about this deal is it assumes Congress is going

412
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:45,200
Speaker 5: to pass legislation. If Congress passes legislation, this can work.

413
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:52,320
Speaker 5: If they don't, it won't. Who has faith in Congress, Shannon,

414
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 5: is that you with your hand up?

415
00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:55,160
Speaker 2: No, I don't have my hand up.

416
00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:58,880
Speaker 5: Well, I think this deal if Congress doesn't pass something

417
00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:01,439
Speaker 5: just doesn't work. All right, I won't do this. The

418
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:04,399
Speaker 5: whole show will take calls right for this KSI TJ.

419
00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:08,080
Speaker 4: Smith, personal injury attorney called TJ. He'll make them pay.

420
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,840
Speaker 3: Now more of Kentucky Sports Radio presented by Stockton Mortgage.

421
00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:12,919
Speaker 2: Here's Matt Jones.

422
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:14,840
Speaker 4: That's what you do have to have. You're exactly right

423
00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:15,239
Speaker 4: about them.

424
00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:17,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, takes a lot of though might work.

425
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:21,000
Speaker 5: One person writes, Matt, pat is what your complaints are?

426
00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:24,840
Speaker 5: Why Jaymi doesn't want to deal with you? Maybe if

427
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:27,400
Speaker 5: you would be more positive, things would be better. I'm

428
00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:31,439
Speaker 5: sure it would. But like, if you just want the

429
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 5: official word, just read the press release, you know, I

430
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,119
Speaker 5: mean when the when? When when the White House issues

431
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:42,280
Speaker 5: a statement? Do you think that's the whole truth, no

432
00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:45,000
Speaker 5: matter who the president is. Do you read the White

433
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 5: House official statement and go, well, that's the proof. That's

434
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:48,679
Speaker 5: all I needed?

435
00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:52,480
Speaker 4: All right? Next next talk what they want you to hear?

436
00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:56,480
Speaker 5: Andy, tell me what you think? Well, I'm good like

437
00:23:56,560 --> 00:24:00,280
Speaker 5: you gotta have critical thinking skills and this show was

438
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:04,560
Speaker 5: just me telling you my opinion. You can feel free

439
00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:07,399
Speaker 5: to disagree. But if you want the official word, I believe,

440
00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:11,560
Speaker 5: uh there are shows that do that, and the and

441
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,280
Speaker 5: and they'll come on. Then you can you can make

442
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:17,280
Speaker 5: that decision, but the the goal is to get some

443
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:21,359
Speaker 5: understanding eight five nine two eight h twenty two eighty seven.

444
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:28,400
Speaker 5: Last thing, are you? Are you like? Overall?

445
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,400
Speaker 4: Do you? Are you more positive about it than I am?

446
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:33,720
Speaker 4: Did Jami situation? Yeah?

447
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:36,520
Speaker 6: No, I'm more positive than I was yesterday when I

448
00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:38,639
Speaker 6: learned that they can still get some outside That's that

449
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:42,280
Speaker 6: was my probably biggest concern because right now, more than ever,

450
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:45,440
Speaker 6: you're looking at Stokes from Kentucky, who's one of those

451
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:47,680
Speaker 6: dudes that you really want to go out and get,

452
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:49,840
Speaker 6: And if they were to miss out on him because

453
00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,480
Speaker 6: JMI is still figuring out what they're doing, I think

454
00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:54,080
Speaker 6: that'd be an issue. But the fact that they can

455
00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:56,680
Speaker 6: still step out gives me a little more optimism than yesterday.

456
00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:58,359
Speaker 6: But overall, I still don't have a ton of faith.

457
00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:00,600
Speaker 4: Stokes will be their first test. I'm glad.

458
00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:02,280
Speaker 5: That's a good way to put it. Stokes will be

459
00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 5: their first test, and it's not just on them. I mean,

460
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:07,439
Speaker 5: Mark Pope might not be able to get Stokes, or

461
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:09,440
Speaker 5: Stokes might just want to go somewhere else. Like I'm

462
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:12,080
Speaker 5: not saying one player says the whole thing, but the

463
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:15,560
Speaker 5: first test of can you create a deal that makes

464
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:18,200
Speaker 5: it to where Stokes wants you to, makes it to

465
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:18,680
Speaker 5: wear a player.

466
00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:20,720
Speaker 4: What Stokes will be the first test of that.

467
00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:24,000
Speaker 5: I don't think it definitively answers the question either way,

468
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:26,119
Speaker 5: but I think it's a good I think that's a

469
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:26,760
Speaker 5: really good point.

470
00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:29,200
Speaker 4: I think it's a good initial Yeah.

471
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:32,080
Speaker 6: You choose the other schools, but if in order to

472
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:34,280
Speaker 6: pick us, and it's still a problem, but I think

473
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:36,679
Speaker 6: it's a good first test. The worst case scenario is

474
00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:39,000
Speaker 6: he goes somewhere else and we get quotes like they

475
00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:41,480
Speaker 6: just couldn't meet my number or something like that.

476
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:44,600
Speaker 4: That would be bad. Then that's where our concerns.

477
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:48,960
Speaker 5: It's not an excuse anymore on the revshare piece because

478
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:53,240
Speaker 5: we've got it. The excuse now is can you make

479
00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:56,280
Speaker 5: it work? And you know what, if they would just

480
00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:58,880
Speaker 5: hire all the Club Blue people and bring them to Jami,

481
00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:02,080
Speaker 5: then I'd be like, we're good. But those people don't

482
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:04,119
Speaker 5: want to do that, and so they're not going to

483
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 5: So we'll see. All right, we got people on the phone.

484
00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:10,359
Speaker 5: I want to talk about some interesting things as well,

485
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:11,680
Speaker 5: But let's go to a couple of these people on

486
00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:12,000
Speaker 5: the phone.

487
00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:13,320
Speaker 4: Justin go ahead, justin.

488
00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 8: Yes media Day, Stoops said that he doesn't believe that

489
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:22,480
Speaker 8: Kentucky football is going to be behind from the rest

490
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:26,240
Speaker 8: of the team's of football teams in the revenue sharing.

491
00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:28,120
Speaker 7: Is the JMI deal?

492
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:30,320
Speaker 8: Is that part of why he seems so confident that

493
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 8: we're not going to be behind in football.

494
00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:34,760
Speaker 5: I can't speak for him, but here's why I think

495
00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:35,920
Speaker 5: he would say to that question.

496
00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:36,840
Speaker 4: I appreciate the call.

497
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:40,840
Speaker 5: I think he believes that when it's all said and done,

498
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:45,439
Speaker 5: he will get enough money from the rev share to

499
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:49,280
Speaker 5: put a really like he'll be able to have as

500
00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:52,199
Speaker 5: much as everybody else in the official money. And I

501
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:55,840
Speaker 5: think they believe, like, let's just use some numbers. There

502
00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:59,040
Speaker 5: were estimations that last year schools in the SEC spent

503
00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:04,400
Speaker 5: about twenty million on football. I've heard UK football last

504
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:09,760
Speaker 5: year spent about five million dollars. I bet that numbers higher,

505
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:12,080
Speaker 5: but if you ask the UK people, they say five.

506
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:15,200
Speaker 5: I think that's low, but regardless, there was a huge gap.

507
00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:19,840
Speaker 5: I think now they would say, Okay, Georgia might spend

508
00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:25,200
Speaker 5: twenty three, but we'll have seventy and we got a

509
00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:28,760
Speaker 5: shot then, so I think that I still think there's

510
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:31,680
Speaker 5: gonna be a gap, but the GAP's not gonna be

511
00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:34,920
Speaker 5: as wide. It's gonna it's it's gonna be like it's

512
00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:38,800
Speaker 5: the difference between in baseball, the Dodgers spend the most,

513
00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:43,320
Speaker 5: but you know what, like the Cubs still spend a lot,

514
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:46,639
Speaker 5: but now the Pirates don't spend anything, right, And I

515
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,240
Speaker 5: think they thought we were kind of the Pirates and

516
00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:50,960
Speaker 5: now maybe we're the Cubs.

517
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:52,840
Speaker 4: Is that fair? Yeah?

518
00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:55,520
Speaker 6: I don't think like Stoops was towing the company line

519
00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:58,600
Speaker 6: and being a yeah yeah, no, height because he doesn't

520
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:01,560
Speaker 6: have a very good poker face got to cover for years.

521
00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:03,440
Speaker 6: And he seemed very genuine in that, No, we're in

522
00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:04,200
Speaker 6: a white spot.

523
00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:05,159
Speaker 4: I like what we have.

524
00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:07,920
Speaker 6: It wasn't like Barnhardt whispered to him on his way

525
00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:08,720
Speaker 6: to do the interview.

526
00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:10,240
Speaker 4: You know we're telling.

527
00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:15,119
Speaker 5: Is that we can't fake it, right, we can't fake it,

528
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:17,919
Speaker 5: and he doesn't fake it, And so I agree with you.

529
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:19,800
Speaker 4: I think he genuinely thinks that, or he wouldn't have

530
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:20,199
Speaker 4: said that.

531
00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:25,280
Speaker 5: John, go ahead, John, Hey, I I have a question.

532
00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:27,879
Speaker 9: But before I ask you, I think JMI is always

533
00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:31,200
Speaker 9: a fun killer. I mean I remember times when Steven

534
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:33,399
Speaker 9: Johnson was playing and they had the the you guys

535
00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:35,639
Speaker 9: did the face mask and they took them away because

536
00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:39,240
Speaker 9: it basically wasn't their idea. I just think that anything

537
00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:42,000
Speaker 9: that's fun and upcoming and that it's for the fans,

538
00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:43,760
Speaker 9: unless it's they're the idea and they want to make

539
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:45,640
Speaker 9: money on it, they're not going to be on board

540
00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:46,040
Speaker 9: for it.

541
00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:53,080
Speaker 5: Totally accurate, You hit, They have had the view, and

542
00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:54,880
Speaker 5: this is going to have to change.

543
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:56,480
Speaker 4: But they have had the view.

544
00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 5: If they didn't come up with it and it's not

545
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:03,680
Speaker 5: and they're not getting money for it, it can't be done.

546
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:08,400
Speaker 5: That opinion has to change. I expressed that yesterday to

547
00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:10,200
Speaker 5: some folks. I'm gonna express it when I talk to

548
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:14,120
Speaker 5: him later in the week. You you cannot be the

549
00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:18,040
Speaker 5: hall monitor. And to use a political example, Donald Trump

550
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:21,280
Speaker 5: drives me crazy, but one of the things he's successful

551
00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:25,720
Speaker 5: at is he comes off as being fun. Democrats in

552
00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 5: the last election came off as being the hall monitor.

553
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:33,280
Speaker 5: People don't like the hall monitor. JMI has been the

554
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:36,040
Speaker 5: hall monitor. They got to stop being the hall monitor.

555
00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:38,400
Speaker 5: I totally agree. Go ahead to your second point.

556
00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 9: The question I have is now that JMI has the

557
00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:45,560
Speaker 9: rights and it's UK, does that mean that when players

558
00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:48,120
Speaker 9: do nil deals. We can actually make them look like

559
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:50,719
Speaker 9: true nil deals. Nothing is a joke more When you

560
00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 9: have I'm gonna double quick commercial and they say, hey,

561
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:56,640
Speaker 9: I got a blue Russell branded T shirt that says

562
00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:57,560
Speaker 9: basketball player.

563
00:29:57,680 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 4: They can now only do it at least now can

564
00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:01,440
Speaker 4: they Only.

565
00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:04,080
Speaker 5: If Okay, I appreciate the call I've given you three times.

566
00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:08,880
Speaker 5: Only if it's an official Jay of my partner. So

567
00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:12,920
Speaker 5: Trent Noah can do a deal. But unless it's with

568
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:15,320
Speaker 5: an official Jay of my partner, he still can't wear

569
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:18,640
Speaker 5: the jersey. I think that's a mistake, but that's what

570
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,000
Speaker 5: it's going to be. So if Jay, if he wants

571
00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:24,440
Speaker 5: to do a deal with a restaurant that doesn't pay

572
00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:28,120
Speaker 5: money to UK, he'll have to wear the generic T shirt.

573
00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:31,760
Speaker 6: I mean that's just where if you look at if

574
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:34,240
Speaker 6: they have other options at every other school, you're automatically

575
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 6: limiting yourself. I mean, even if you believe Jami can

576
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:38,960
Speaker 6: pull it off, they do have one hand behind their back.

577
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 6: If that's if that's the approach.

578
00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 5: On the school people that are the official partners. I

579
00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:47,120
Speaker 5: just you do wonder how much money did that? Like,

580
00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:51,000
Speaker 5: how much money can can Paul Miller pay?

581
00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:54,440
Speaker 4: Right? I can only get my loan so many take

582
00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 4: out so many times.

583
00:30:55,480 --> 00:31:00,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, and during a lot of our conflicts with am

584
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 5: I I looked into how much it would cost for

585
00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:04,479
Speaker 5: us to have something with him.

586
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:08,120
Speaker 4: I mean it was astound and so like if you

587
00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:08,680
Speaker 4: just keep.

588
00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:10,520
Speaker 5: Going to those people and going, all right, pay for this,

589
00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:12,400
Speaker 5: I mean, there does come a point where you just go,

590
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:14,560
Speaker 5: how much you know, how much do you want me

591
00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:19,960
Speaker 5: to spend? Noah, go ahead, Noah, Hey man, I've got.

592
00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:23,600
Speaker 10: A very random ask anything one today for it? So

593
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:25,720
Speaker 10: with all this top yeah, so all the socc of

594
00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:28,080
Speaker 10: movies that you guys have had this throughout this week,

595
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:31,120
Speaker 10: I've been thinking from with that, if you could have

596
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:34,320
Speaker 10: Hollywood make a biopick off of a historical figure from

597
00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:37,520
Speaker 10: say like from the past fifty to one hundred years,

598
00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:40,640
Speaker 10: and if you could have any sort of figure, and

599
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:42,080
Speaker 10: I want to know who it would be and who

600
00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:44,680
Speaker 10: you would cast to have them. I have my answer

601
00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:45,400
Speaker 10: I given now or.

602
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:47,480
Speaker 4: After you guys answer, go for it. What's yours? While

603
00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:48,320
Speaker 4: I'm thinking.

604
00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:51,760
Speaker 10: It's a very random one, which I know it would

605
00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:54,120
Speaker 10: never happen because he's actually not an actor, but I

606
00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:57,920
Speaker 10: was thinking of him before Joe Burrow and Billy Graham.

607
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:04,200
Speaker 5: Look it up some like, Wait, bit you could see

608
00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:06,760
Speaker 5: Joe Burrows as the minister Billy Graham.

609
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:14,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, I appreciate it. I might have to look at that. Shon.

610
00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:16,080
Speaker 4: Are you saying Joe Burrow looks like Billy?

611
00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:18,240
Speaker 2: I'm saying I can see him pull that off.

612
00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:19,479
Speaker 4: I can see that.

613
00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:23,920
Speaker 5: I can't even fathom how Joe Burrow looks like Billy Graham.

614
00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:28,280
Speaker 4: Picture of Billy Grant, I don't know. I don't know.

615
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:31,200
Speaker 5: I only remember Billy Graham as being old, so it's

616
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:31,720
Speaker 5: hard for.

617
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:34,040
Speaker 2: Me to look. Can you see that? If you can

618
00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:35,040
Speaker 2: see that there.

619
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:38,280
Speaker 4: Oh, somebody has already done this. That's why.

620
00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:39,800
Speaker 3: That's why I say it. I can see that because

621
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:44,240
Speaker 3: I have seen it. Okay, the thing that okay in that.

622
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:53,320
Speaker 4: Picture, I mean maybe, yes, that's interesting. I the we

623
00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:55,000
Speaker 4: have better options in the casting room there.

624
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 5: I actually think a bio of Billy Graham would be

625
00:32:57,320 --> 00:32:59,360
Speaker 5: I mean, Billy Graham is like one of the people

626
00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:03,440
Speaker 5: that I really revere and think like lived from what

627
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:08,000
Speaker 5: I know, exactly as you would want a Christian to live.

628
00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 5: People who've had interesting lives. Huey Long had a really

629
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:18,480
Speaker 5: interesting life. The former governor of Louisiana who was ran

630
00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:23,840
Speaker 5: for president. He was shot. Uh you know. All the

631
00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 5: King's Men was based on him, but it's fictionalized. So

632
00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:29,080
Speaker 5: I would like to I'd like to say, I'd love

633
00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:32,120
Speaker 5: to see like a really good movie about Bobby Kennedy.

634
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:34,160
Speaker 5: There was a movie. I don't think it was very good.

635
00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:37,160
Speaker 5: The Younger was not the kook that's in office right now?

636
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:39,880
Speaker 4: What about you? You got one?

637
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:47,640
Speaker 6: Chris Daniel day Lewis. Daniel da Lewis can do anything.

638
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:48,120
Speaker 7: Though.

639
00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:51,440
Speaker 5: They'll make a movie about Chris Farley one day and

640
00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:53,959
Speaker 5: it'll be really like, that's a really good pick.

641
00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:57,120
Speaker 6: Why Why is an escape? He's one of my favorite actors.

642
00:33:57,280 --> 00:34:02,280
Speaker 6: American Psycho Chris Christian Bell as Chris Farley.

643
00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:04,080
Speaker 5: Well, if you had told me he could play Dick Cheney,

644
00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:06,240
Speaker 5: I would have said no way, And then he did it.

645
00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:06,600
Speaker 7: Great.

646
00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:06,960
Speaker 4: Yeah.

647
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:09,560
Speaker 2: How about see him in the New Madden Oh yeah, yeah,

648
00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:12,080
Speaker 2: that's a good. How about Baby Billy and Billy Graham?

649
00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:13,160
Speaker 2: Can you see that?

650
00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:17,320
Speaker 5: I definitely can see that. I definitely could see Baby

651
00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:20,960
Speaker 5: Billy interesting. I'm gonna have to think about though, as

652
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:25,239
Speaker 5: somebody like who's somebody's life that is fat from the

653
00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:28,160
Speaker 5: last one hundred years. That is fascinating enough all the

654
00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:32,439
Speaker 5: way around that I would want to see. I would

655
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:34,880
Speaker 5: want to see a movie. He was not a good person,

656
00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:38,360
Speaker 5: I think. But I think a movie about George Wallace,

657
00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:41,680
Speaker 5: the Alabama governor, would be interesting because he was like

658
00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:44,160
Speaker 5: one of the leading segregationists and then at the end

659
00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:46,880
Speaker 5: of his life he flipped and he thought everything he

660
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:49,800
Speaker 5: had done was wrong. It would be interesting to watch

661
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:53,279
Speaker 5: his progression, you know what I mean. He was the

662
00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:58,200
Speaker 5: guy blocking the schoolhouse in Tuscaloosa from people becoming and

663
00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:00,680
Speaker 5: then later in his life there were interviews where he

664
00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:04,359
Speaker 5: expread like cried about how he had wasted his life

665
00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:10,080
Speaker 5: doing these bad things. I think that would be interesting anyway.

666
00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:14,000
Speaker 5: Or Chris Farley, Commonwealth Causes Bourbon Lovers, you don't want

682
00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:06,280
Speaker 2: Actor, probably not as a football player.

683
00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:09,960
Speaker 5: Billy Graham was like, I mean, when I was a kid,

684
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:12,120
Speaker 5: like my mom like a door, what's it? My mom

685
00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:14,600
Speaker 5: and Larry go to this place called the Cove, I think,

686
00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:17,120
Speaker 5: which was like his place. They used to go there

687
00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:20,840
Speaker 5: all the time, and uh, it was all but Billy Graham.

688
00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:23,160
Speaker 5: Billy Graham. He was on TV a lot too when

689
00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:24,640
Speaker 5: I was a kid, but not like in the Jerry

690
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:27,040
Speaker 5: Fallwell way, like it seemed like he was actually doing good.

691
00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:29,400
Speaker 6: Yeah, speaking of your mom, it's I'm now in a

692
00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:30,640

697
00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:40,840
Speaker 5: new Taco Bell and pie big news. It is a

698
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:43,800
Speaker 5: big news. So Jason goes, maybe they'd like ks R

699
00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:46,399
Speaker 5: better UK if you all would pony up and give

700
00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:50,200
Speaker 5: to the program. Have to respect the respect the brand

701
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:53,120
Speaker 5: and who owns the rights to it. Maybe put some

702
00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:57,319
Speaker 5: cash in. Yeah, that's what you want, Jason, That's what

703
00:36:57,360 --> 00:37:02,799
Speaker 5: you want. Is you want the media who pay to

704
00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:06,200
Speaker 5: get access. That's a really good way to have like

705
00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:09,720
Speaker 5: a system. Let's make it to where the only people

706
00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:12,120
Speaker 5: that get any access at all in the media are

707
00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:14,880
Speaker 5: are people who pay. Yeah, well let's put that in

708
00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:19,600
Speaker 5: a different context. Yeah, I think you'd probably really like

709
00:37:19,719 --> 00:37:24,680
Speaker 5: it if NBC paid Joe Biden for access to the

710
00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:28,960
Speaker 5: White House, wouldn't that be good? And the entities that

711
00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:31,560
Speaker 5: didn't pay him couldn't get in. Oh wait, maybe that's

712
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:34,160
Speaker 5: happening right now. But like, is that what you would want?

713
00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:38,080
Speaker 5: That's not what you want. This is a public university.

714
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:42,560
Speaker 6: Also in the former model, Ron Lemon was losing so

715
00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:45,400
Speaker 6: much money on the uh the King of Card the

716
00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:47,200
Speaker 6: card game, Remember of the Club Blue.

717
00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:52,320
Speaker 4: He's so ing of hearts.

718
00:37:54,800 --> 00:38:00,000
Speaker 5: You don't want that you really want because also, if

719
00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:03,080
Speaker 5: if I'm in partnership with u K, I'm just gonna

720
00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:03,960
Speaker 5: say what they want.

721
00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:06,160
Speaker 4: I think a lot of people are sharing to just

722
00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:09,080
Speaker 4: want to be lied to. Oh I'm sure, just lie

723
00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:11,480
Speaker 4: to me. Yeah, tell me what better?

724
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:14,120
Speaker 5: Tell me what makes me feel better, because I don't

725
00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:16,319
Speaker 5: like to hear things that don't make me feel good.

726
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:19,200
Speaker 6: There's a lot of people like that in a lot

727
00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:22,399
Speaker 6: of realms. Unfortunately, how much you I have to pay

728
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:24,040
Speaker 6: for them to let me come inside when it's raining

729
00:38:24,080 --> 00:38:28,320
Speaker 6: after a game? Impossible does make for a good video.

730
00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:31,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, but we made But you made that work. You

731
00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:33,799
Speaker 5: getting kicked out of the games, You made it work.

732
00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:37,160
Speaker 5: Numbers went up, Hall Monitor, Alan, go ahead.

733
00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:41,160
Speaker 11: Alan, Hey, guys, this is Allan from Saint Louis not Cutler.

734
00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:42,680
Speaker 11: I don't want to have any beef for Shannon. I'm

735
00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:44,440
Speaker 11: a fan of this, so let's just start off with that.

736
00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:49,960
Speaker 11: I was just wondering that the UK Athletics Department forming

737
00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:52,359
Speaker 11: the LLC a few weeks back. Do you think that's

738
00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:53,680
Speaker 11: factored into that decision?

739
00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:56,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, of course, I mean this was this was announced

740
00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:58,640
Speaker 5: at the first meeting of that LLC.

741
00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:02,560
Speaker 4: Right, So clearly, yeah, clearly it had something to do

742
00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:02,960
Speaker 4: with it.

743
00:39:03,360 --> 00:39:06,719
Speaker 5: I'm not like a high level corporate lawyer, so I'm

744
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:09,960
Speaker 5: not sure what the tax implication, but for certain that

745
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:11,600
Speaker 5: had something to do with it.

746
00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:15,480
Speaker 11: Were you surprised that Nike gave us a deal that

747
00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:18,120
Speaker 11: was of lesser value than some of the other schools.

748
00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:22,080
Speaker 5: No, because we're not a football school and the money's

749
00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:26,200
Speaker 5: in football, so so no. I actually think what Kentucky

750
00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:30,120
Speaker 5: gets from Nike is kind of amazing considering that we're

751
00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:32,719
Speaker 5: not a football school. I have to think that Kentucky

752
00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:35,600
Speaker 5: and Duke are by far the schools that get the

753
00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:38,960
Speaker 5: most that are basketball primary schools, and Duke is almost

754
00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:42,160
Speaker 5: a national brand. Kentucky is too, but Duke is even

755
00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:44,920
Speaker 5: more so. Plus Duke has a very rich alumni base.

756
00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:51,279
Speaker 5: But yeah, I'm I'm not surprised, you know, just think

757
00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:53,759
Speaker 5: about it like this. Think about how many people are

758
00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:58,439
Speaker 5: at a Tennessee football game. One hundred thousand people, right,

759
00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:00,839
Speaker 5: Think about all the stuff they're buy when they're there.

760
00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:05,359
Speaker 5: Take the biggest Kentucky basketball game and it's twenty one

761
00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:06,200
Speaker 5: thousand people.

762
00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:09,400
Speaker 4: I mean, it's just a sheer numbers game. At some point, Allen.

763
00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:12,240
Speaker 11: Doctor.

764
00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:15,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, appreciate the call. I mean general of the football schools.

765
00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:17,960
Speaker 5: That's it's always going to be the biggest thing.

766
00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:20,879
Speaker 6: That's why when we were talking about Ohio State getting more,

767
00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:23,399
Speaker 6: it's just the football brand just carries that you can't

768
00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:24,439
Speaker 6: compare yourself.

769
00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:26,680
Speaker 5: And just a population thing, like what's the population of

770
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:32,120
Speaker 5: Texas and Ohio versus Kentucky. I mean, Texas probably got

771
00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:34,960
Speaker 5: four or five times as many people. Ohio's probably got

772
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:38,200
Speaker 5: three times as many people. So I mean I think that's.

773
00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:40,760
Speaker 6: Having gone to that Texas game last year, My goodness,

774
00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:41,919
Speaker 6: that's a different sport there.

775
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:45,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, And anyone in Austin knows Texas has a very

776
00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:49,359
Speaker 5: wealthy alumni base, very wealthy, so I think Ohio State,

777
00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:51,600
Speaker 5: I mean, I would say Kentucky. I mean, we're not

778
00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:54,719
Speaker 5: the least wealthy alumni base, but against a lot of

779
00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:59,440
Speaker 5: our competition, we probably aren't the highest wealth alumni base.

780
00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:03,319
Speaker 5: So in our state, I mean, we're we don't have

781
00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:06,160
Speaker 5: the money in our state that other states do. It's

782
00:41:06,239 --> 00:41:13,120
Speaker 5: just it's just the fact, Sam, go ahead, Sam.

783
00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:13,359
Speaker 7: Hey, Matt, I just wanted to call because I feel

784
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:17,200
Speaker 7: like I have the solution to the NCAA tournament. I

785
00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:21,440
Speaker 7: know that they keep wanting to raise the number of

786
00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:23,000
Speaker 7: teams that are in. I feel like that's going to

787
00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:26,040
Speaker 7: make it worse and worse and worse. I think that

788
00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:27,840
Speaker 7: they should go to the model that they use for

789
00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:31,839
Speaker 7: basketball or me for baseball. For basketball, so go into

790
00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:35,000
Speaker 7: the Quaw system. You have double eliminations to get to

791
00:41:35,040 --> 00:41:39,360
Speaker 7: the sweet sixteen. And then that means that the Kentucky's,

792
00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:42,120
Speaker 7: the Dukes of the world that are playing, if they

793
00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:44,879
Speaker 7: lose a game, they still have a chance to go back.

794
00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:48,040
Speaker 7: It's double that means they get the more money. They get,

795
00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:50,719
Speaker 7: more money they do the reason why they want.

796
00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:52,759
Speaker 4: To stand it. That's at the end of the day.

797
00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:53,560
Speaker 4: I agree with you.

798
00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:55,600
Speaker 5: I think it would make some sense to like go

799
00:41:55,680 --> 00:41:58,200
Speaker 5: double elimination in the final four or something like that.

800
00:41:58,239 --> 00:42:02,120
Speaker 5: In the early rounds. The NCAA Tournament needs Oakland beat

801
00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:03,720
Speaker 5: in Kentucky.

802
00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:06,880
Speaker 7: That's true. But at the same time, like you don't

803
00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:10,319
Speaker 7: you want them. They would still be able to beat them,

804
00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:12,279
Speaker 7: you know what I mean. But it just doesn't knock

805
00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:12,680
Speaker 7: them out.

806
00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:14,839
Speaker 4: But it's not as big a deal.

807
00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:19,040
Speaker 5: Winning one out of the three out of the three

808
00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:21,920
Speaker 5: is not enough, Like they gotta beat us. I do

809
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:24,040
Speaker 5: think going to the double elimination in the final four

810
00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:28,320
Speaker 5: would be good, but the magic of the NCAA Tournament

811
00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:32,759
Speaker 5: is Oakland over Kentucky and you can't you can't lose that.

812
00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:33,399
Speaker 4: I don't think
