67
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,960
Speaker 4: When I die, Just bury me underneath of the fair

68
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,240
Speaker 4: and expos That's right, Yeah, let's comeing right here for

69
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:53,959
Speaker 4: a little tombs story.

70
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:54,520
Speaker 2: What about you.

71
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:56,679
Speaker 5: Well, it's funny he says that because the longest time

72
00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 5: I thought Shannon was like just a troll that lived

73
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:01,359
Speaker 5: at the fair. I'm because the first time I met

74
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 5: Shannon was at the fair. Then like a year past,

75
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:04,919
Speaker 5: I didn't see him again, and so he did another

76
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 5: show at the fair, and for a while I just

77
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:08,079
Speaker 5: knew Shannon is always a fair.

78
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 4: You know, like when I retire, I want to be

79
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,360
Speaker 4: a carneiye, I could just bark at people on the midway.

80
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:13,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, well I.

81
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 2: Think that's to be honest with you, I think that's

82
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 2: a goal you could achieve.

83
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:17,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I could do that.

84
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 2: I think I think if you worked towards that, Shannon,

85
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,359
Speaker 2: you have the skills, you two could.

86
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 3: Be a car You've always gotta have a fallback plan.

87
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,960
Speaker 2: That's bad. Well, we got a lot of stuff to

88
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:31,239
Speaker 2: get to today. I actually wanted to start with, uh,

89
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,679
Speaker 2: something I don't do a lot, which is actually talk

90
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:39,279
Speaker 2: about another show or podcast, which is the Matt Norlander

91
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 2: College Basketball podcast. The reason I want to talk about

92
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 2: it is he had his as his guest, Mark Pope.

93
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 2: It went seventy minutes yesterday. Actually, I recommend for folks

94
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 2: that you listen to it. It was interesting to listen

95
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 2: to Mark Pope with him. He was different than he

96
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 2: was on this show in a different way. It is

97
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:03,120
Speaker 2: clear to me, Drew, that Mark Pope and Matt Norlander

98
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 2: are friends. If you listen to it, it's clear Norlander.

99
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,640
Speaker 2: There's like two people in college basketball media that I

100
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 2: think we're friends with Mark Pope before he got here,

101
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:16,600
Speaker 2: and that would be Matt Norlander and Jeff Goodman. And

102
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 2: I think when those two guys say something about him,

103
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:21,479
Speaker 2: I tend to listen a little bit more because I

104
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 2: know they know him. And you could hear listening to

105
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,600
Speaker 2: this podcast that Matt Norlander and here he are like

106
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 2: like they're they're talking about Miles Davis together and clearly

107
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 2: so they know that the other one likes Miles Davis.

108
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 2: But he said a number of things, and I encourage

109
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 2: you to listen, but I also just want to rattle

110
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 2: through him, rattle through some of the highlights because I

111
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,440
Speaker 2: think they're important for people who are Kentucky fans to

112
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,279
Speaker 2: know about Mark Pope. So are you ready for some

113
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 2: of these? They're ready? Let's get started. He was asked

114
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 2: by Matt Norlander to grade last year's season, grade how

115
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 2: he thought they would do. I'm always interested when coaches

116
00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:59,719
Speaker 2: are asked this because they won't give themselves an A

117
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 2: unless they're just a jerk, right, But some of them

118
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 2: will give themselves like an A half he said, solid B

119
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:12,080
Speaker 2: B minus. He said, I'd give myself a BB minus.

120
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 2: He said, ultimately I didn't succeed because the success here

121
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,360
Speaker 2: is winning the national championship. But he gave himself a

122
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 2: BB minus. I think he's a hard grater. I would

123
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 2: have said a minus for me, probably maybe lost a

124
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:28,600
Speaker 2: few games during the season. I think they shouldn't have lost.

125
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:32,239
Speaker 2: But he also won eight games against top fifteen teams,

126
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 2: which is more than any college basketball team ever in

127
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 2: the history of college basketball.

128
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,520
Speaker 5: But he gave himself a BB months. Yeah, I feel

129
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:42,360
Speaker 5: like it's a pretty honest assessment. I would have gone

130
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 5: a little higher as a fan of Pope, but I

131
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:47,920
Speaker 5: guess he's punishing himself the SEC standings.

132
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:49,760
Speaker 2: You know, they hope to never be that low again.

133
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:52,279
Speaker 5: You're not an SEC tournament by the weekend when Pope

134
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 5: knows how important that is to the fans. So I

135
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:57,279
Speaker 5: think that would be about right. Also had some great

136
00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:58,280
Speaker 5: wins in that regular season.

137
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:01,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I think probably give him a v plus

138
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:03,880
Speaker 4: considering how quickly he threw everything together and how he

139
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:05,640
Speaker 4: made that team gel the way they did.

140
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:07,799
Speaker 3: I think that he did a great job.

141
00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he's hard on himself. I would have

142
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 2: said a minus. Now. I thought this was interesting. Matt

143
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,920
Speaker 2: Norlanders said, what was the high point of the season.

144
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 2: What game were you the happiest, What game were you

145
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:23,400
Speaker 2: the saddest. For that saddest, he picked Ohio State up

146
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:26,240
Speaker 2: in Madison Square Garden where we got beat by twenty.

147
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,240
Speaker 2: He said. Madison Square Garden is next to him, next

148
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 2: to Rupperina, the most important gym in the country to him,

149
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 2: and he thought it was embarrassing the performance they gave

150
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 2: and he was very concerned. What was interesting is, he said,

151
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:42,680
Speaker 2: the best moment of the year. I wouldn't have sguessed this,

152
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 2: but we were there was in Seattle and the comeback

153
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:50,040
Speaker 2: against Gonzaga. He said, when Jackson, when when they lost

154
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:53,719
Speaker 2: both Kerk Crisa and Lamont Butler and were still able

155
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,479
Speaker 2: to come back and win on what essentially amounted to

156
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,359
Speaker 2: Gonzaga's home court. He said that was the first moment

157
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 2: he thought, oh wow, this team could be special.

158
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, and if I remember correctly, it wasn't just bouncing

159
00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 5: back from losing injuries. They completely changed up their defense

160
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:08,680
Speaker 5: in that second half. Maybe it was like a one

161
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 5: three one zone. I think that might have cooled Gonzaga

162
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,600
Speaker 5: off when they were completely hot in the first half.

163
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:15,239
Speaker 5: So I could see why he'd be proud of that game.

164
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:18,280
Speaker 5: I would I would probably lean Duke in that moment

165
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:20,400
Speaker 5: where he tells, go get two hands on Cooper Flash.

166
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:24,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, he mentioned Duke his second Duke was exciting, but

167
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:26,800
Speaker 2: you know it was also their first game with freshman.

168
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,040
Speaker 2: He thought that the Gonzaga game was a game where

169
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 2: he thought, Okay, this is a team that can do something.

170
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, I thought that, you know, Kentucky was gonna get

171
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 4: blown out, Kirk Crisa goes down with the injury, then

172
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 4: they come back and win, and that right there was

173
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 4: the moment where I knew that this team had a

174
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 4: lot of fight. And we saw that multiple times throughout

175
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:42,560
Speaker 4: the season, but that was really the first time that

176
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:43,040
Speaker 4: we saw it.

177
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,239
Speaker 2: He then went player by player talking about the team

178
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 2: this year, who he thought would be good, et cetera.

179
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:52,680
Speaker 2: And he said that he believes Drew otaga Away will

180
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 2: be the best defender in America this year. Said he

181
00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 2: thinks so taga Away will be the best defender in America.

182
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 2: I thought he was a good defender last year, and

183
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:04,880
Speaker 2: by the end of the year, I thought he was

184
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 2: really good. Do you think best defender in America is plausible?

185
00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:11,880
Speaker 5: That's really high praise. I'm excited about a big jump

186
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 5: in the combine. I know it's a Wednesday afternoon in

187
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 5: a scrimmage in Chicago, but always looked like such a

188
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 5: good defender up there, as in those pre draft scrimmages.

189
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 5: And I eventually pulled out of the draft, but a

190
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 5: few times he was in those five on fives he

191
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:26,720
Speaker 5: looked like a completely different defender, and I thought, Oh,

192
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 5: is he gonna bring that back to Lexington for the

193
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 5: next year. And it sounds like that's gonna be a

194
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 5: big part of his game.

195
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:35,320
Speaker 2: I like that when he's talking about Jaden Quaintans, of course, Uh, Norlander,

196
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:38,800
Speaker 2: really you? Norlander pushed him in a way like I

197
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:41,440
Speaker 2: wouldn't feel comfortable because I don't know Mark like that.

198
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:45,439
Speaker 2: He clearly did so. He wouldn't let Mark evade questions

199
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,880
Speaker 2: and he'd say, you didn't answer my question. Things I

200
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 2: would say to maybe Mark stoops he said to it,

201
00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 2: maybe we'll get there one day, but he did it.

202
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:56,160
Speaker 2: And with Jaden Quaintan's he said when's he gonna come back?

203
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 2: And he didn't want to answer. And then finally Mark said,

204
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 2: he will not play every game this year, Shannon, but

205
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 2: he certainly thought he would play a decent amount of games.

206
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:11,080
Speaker 2: He made it sound like we're talking Christmas e which

207
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:12,720
Speaker 2: is kind of what we thought. But it was interesting

208
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 2: to hear from me.

209
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm good with that.

210
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:16,520
Speaker 4: I would rather have him in February and March than

211
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:19,079
Speaker 4: I would in November December. So if he needs to

212
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,560
Speaker 4: take a couple of months to rest up and get,

213
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 4: you know, his injury healed entirely, then I'm good with that.

214
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 4: He did look good at the Dirt Bowl, though, that dog,

215
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,439
Speaker 4: that dog, I mean, he has a great hang time.

216
00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:32,320
Speaker 2: Well, he said in terms of that this three weeks

217
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,240
Speaker 2: are his most important three weeks of his whole process

218
00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 2: of recovery, so he thought he.

219
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,440
Speaker 5: Would know more in three weeks. He's the first one

220
00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:40,480
Speaker 5: back on campus. As they started making their way back

221
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:42,839
Speaker 5: from vacation, I'm you though. That was the moment you

222
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 5: could tell nor Lander was comfortable because he just interrupted

223
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:46,920
Speaker 5: Pope like, no, no, Gil, come on, give me a month.

224
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was like this answer my question, son, Like

225
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:54,959
Speaker 2: he was very very specific. Then I thought this was

226
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 2: interesting about Jayon quaints because I don't really know anything

227
00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:00,960
Speaker 2: about him beyond that he's really good at basketball, Pope says.

228
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 2: Because Pope's apparently pretty good at chess, like not great,

229
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,839
Speaker 2: but pretty good at chess. He said. Jaden Quaintans is

230
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 2: up five to one against him on chess, he says. Now,

231
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:12,920
Speaker 2: I don't play chess, but I do know enough about

232
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:14,680
Speaker 2: chess to know you got to be pretty smart to

233
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,000
Speaker 2: do it. So I kind of like drew a dude.

234
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 2: If he's up five to one on a grown man

235
00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:21,720
Speaker 2: on chess, we might actually he might be like a

236
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:23,120
Speaker 2: really smart player.

237
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:26,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, we know how bright. Pope is a probably highest

238
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,920
Speaker 5: IQ in that building. But if you're star player that's

239
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 5: projected lottery pick just wants to hang out and be

240
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,680
Speaker 5: nerds together, that's gonna be nothing but good things. I

241
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:34,959
Speaker 5: like that he has that asude and just.

242
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 4: Break Apparently he's a much better chess player than a driver.

243
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:38,520
Speaker 4: Though he can't pass his driver.

244
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 2: He cannot pass and and Pope confirmed did not pass

245
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 2: the driver's test. Apparently it wasn't close because he ran

246
00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 2: over a cone, which is not what you want to

247
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 2: do on your driver's tests. He's driving like that kid's

248
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:54,480
Speaker 2: walking like sometimes you fall down, all right. Then he

249
00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 2: was asked about schedule. He said, every single year he

250
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 2: wants Kentucky to have the hardest schedule in college basketball.

251
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 2: I can't tell you how much I love that Cauz

252
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 2: col played pretty hard schedules, but then wind about it

253
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:11,680
Speaker 2: the whole time. I loved Pope saying this is Kentucky.

254
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:15,080
Speaker 2: We should play the hardest schedule in college basketball every year.

255
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 5: And last year it was ridiculously hard. It was the

256
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 5: third hardest in the country. And he was talking like

257
00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 5: how disappointed he was that it was only the third hardest,

258
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:24,840
Speaker 5: like second, third best and good enough for him. He

259
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,199
Speaker 5: wants to be the best at everything, have the hardest schedule,

260
00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:28,320
Speaker 5: play the best teams.

261
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,319
Speaker 4: You're Kentucky basketball. You shouldn't be afraid of anybody. And

262
00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:34,079
Speaker 4: I think you need to be battle tested going into March.

263
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:35,880
Speaker 4: And if you've already played the best teams in the

264
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:37,200
Speaker 4: regular season, you're ready to.

265
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:37,559
Speaker 3: Go for it.

266
00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, just to some other little personality things I thought

267
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:44,160
Speaker 2: fans would think is interesting. They asked him about why

268
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:47,160
Speaker 2: he was the number forty one, and for those of

269
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 2: you with religious backgrounds, he gave an answer that was

270
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:56,120
Speaker 2: like two minutes all about the Bible. He was like, Noah,

271
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:59,240
Speaker 2: the water flooded for forty days and then it was

272
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:02,880
Speaker 2: the first day that he was able to, uh to

273
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:07,320
Speaker 2: get off the flood. He said, uh uh, Moses that

274
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 2: when they left the or got the promise, say whatever

275
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:13,320
Speaker 2: was the day forty one. Jesus was on earth for

276
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:16,040
Speaker 2: forty days and then God called him back home on

277
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,480
Speaker 2: day forty one. He said that for him forty one,

278
00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:21,839
Speaker 2: he like, he literally mentioned my mom would have loved it.

279
00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:25,160
Speaker 2: He mentioned like six things from the Bible, all of

280
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 2: which were on the forty first day, and that's why.

281
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 2: And then he said Kobe Brea, which not quite the

282
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 2: same as the Bible, but Kobe Brea was picked forty

283
00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:36,559
Speaker 2: first in the draft and his first win at Kentucky

284
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 2: was by forty one points. Yeah.

285
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 5: I still think Kyle probably just gave it to him here,

286
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:44,959
Speaker 5: Man's I mean, you think all that and I think

287
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,240
Speaker 5: he's had thirty years to put that together back.

288
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,560
Speaker 2: Okay, there's still still think he rolled in.

289
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:51,760
Speaker 3: Kyler was like, here you go, man, welcome, Here's that's

290
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 3: usually the way it works. I was.

291
00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:59,080
Speaker 2: His biblic And you're suggesting none of that was the reason.

292
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 2: Great answer, nice and polished.

293
00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:03,640
Speaker 5: I'm just I'm just thinking he's transferred in Patino's telling

294
00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:05,320
Speaker 5: to run kit like here's a joursey.

295
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:07,760
Speaker 2: I think Mark Pope would. I think it was because

296
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:09,079
Speaker 2: of Noah Moses.

297
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:10,560
Speaker 3: Gave him two.

298
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 2: I don't know, have figured out something else. He also,

299
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,960
Speaker 2: all right, one more answer. I loved. He was asked

300
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:20,160
Speaker 2: about the portal. And you know, what do most coaches

301
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:22,760
Speaker 2: say about the portal? What do they say when when

302
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:27,439
Speaker 2: me ninked it's not good? Me me, me, me, me me.

303
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,680
Speaker 2: What does Mark Pope say? He said, I love the portal.

304
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,200
Speaker 2: He said, this is the best time to coach college

305
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:37,640
Speaker 2: basketball in history because it's unique. You don't know what's

306
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:40,200
Speaker 2: gonna happen, and I feel like I have a chance

307
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:43,120
Speaker 2: to beat everybody else at it because nobody knows what

308
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:46,720
Speaker 2: to do. See that is what a creative person thinks.

309
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 2: There's like a market inefficiency. How do I beat it

310
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 2: and then take advantage of it. I love it. I've

311
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 2: sat here and listened to coaches in all sports complaining

312
00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:59,439
Speaker 2: the whole thing's falling apart. He said, Look, are there

313
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:02,439
Speaker 2: things I do differently? Sure, but this is the most

314
00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 2: exciting time to coach. And I'd rather be coaching now

315
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,960
Speaker 2: than any other time. That's what you want, Shannon, if

316
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:09,760
Speaker 2: you're gonna have a coach for the future, they can't

317
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 2: sit there and wait for a time that the is gone.

318
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 3: It's adapt or die, right.

319
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 4: The portal's not going anywhere, So whether or not you

320
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,120
Speaker 4: like it, you have to figure out how can you

321
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:18,920
Speaker 4: get ahead of it. And Mark Pope, I think does

322
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:20,720
Speaker 4: a better job than anybody at that and it helps

323
00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:21,520
Speaker 4: when you're at Kentucky.

324
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 3: Let's be real now.

325
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:26,560
Speaker 2: Last thing, and I actually, just as a human found

326
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 2: this interesting. He was asked, what is the worst part

327
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 2: of the job. What's the worst part of being the

328
00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 2: coach at Kentucky. Now, I thought this was a really

329
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 2: interesting answer, he said. The worst part is kind of

330
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:39,960
Speaker 2: also the best part. He said, but once you're the

331
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:44,840
Speaker 2: coach at Kentucky, you essentially become public property. He was, like,

332
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:49,680
Speaker 2: your life becomes public property. The state kind of owns

333
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,520
Speaker 2: you in a way, and he said, that's just taking

334
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 2: some of me getting used to He's like, I don't

335
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 2: hate it, but it also makes it to where you

336
00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:00,120
Speaker 2: kind of are no longer yourself your public property. I

337
00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:03,400
Speaker 2: think that's a fascinating thing to say, and I get it.

338
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean he's very aware of the position holds

339
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:07,680
Speaker 5: and all that comes with it. I think when he

340
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:09,280
Speaker 5: first got here, even though he had been through it

341
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 5: as a player, you know, back before we had phones

342
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:14,880
Speaker 5: taking picture everywhere, when there was that phase of every restaurant,

343
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 5: you know, it's getting reported where he sitting, I think

344
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:18,720
Speaker 5: there was a moment where he's thinking, my goodness, what

345
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 5: is this job that I've gotten into.

346
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:22,640
Speaker 4: But the thing that I think he does so well,

347
00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:25,760
Speaker 4: maybe better than any coach, is how accessible he is

348
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 4: and approachable, you know what I mean. You can go

349
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:29,560
Speaker 4: up and you can just talk to him and he

350
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:31,280
Speaker 4: would he talk to you and take a picture of

351
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:31,800
Speaker 4: whatever you want.

352
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,760
Speaker 2: And the last thing, just for the record, he probably

353
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 2: wouldn't like me highlighting this, but when I said this

354
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:39,720
Speaker 2: about a week ago, I got a lot of angry

355
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,160
Speaker 2: messages from people. A lot of you are not you

356
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 2: all here. You are wonderful, but with some of the

357
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:47,120
Speaker 2: people listening, got a little angry messages at me for

358
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 2: saying this. He quoted he said the exact same answer.

359
00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:53,400
Speaker 2: Matt Layne Landers said, if you could have dinner with

360
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 2: anybody alive, who would you say, and he said, Barack Obama.

361
00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:00,960
Speaker 2: I'm just saying, don't get mad at me, he's steaking liberal.

362
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:04,440
Speaker 2: He said that our coach also said Barack Obama. Dru

363
00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 2: So I'm not the only one that would have said

364
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:07,520
Speaker 2: that as an ant, so.

365
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:09,040
Speaker 5: I wondered if that would stick with you if you

366
00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 5: bring it up on the show today. It stood out

367
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 5: to me that doesn't like blue cheese? That was one

368
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 5: of my big taken.

369
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:15,560
Speaker 2: On Yeah, I love blue cheese. What's wrong with blue Chao?

370
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:17,240
Speaker 5: Actually another one that stood out to me because you

371
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,400
Speaker 5: don't hear a coach admit this. As nor Lander asked

372
00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:22,360
Speaker 5: him how much he reads, how many podcasts consumes if

373
00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 5: he's on social media.

374
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:24,640
Speaker 2: He said all the time. He said, yeah, I'm on

375
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:25,040
Speaker 2: it a lot.

376
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:27,120
Speaker 5: A lot of coaches, even though we know they are,

377
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:28,720
Speaker 5: they pretend they're not to not hear it.

378
00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:31,160
Speaker 2: He admitted, I thought that was really interesting. They he

379
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,520
Speaker 2: asked for for They asked him, do you follow what

380
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:38,760
Speaker 2: the media says in college basketball and local Kentucky media

381
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:42,560
Speaker 2: what they said, and he said, I follow it all.

382
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 2: I appreciate he's being honest. All these coaches do it

383
00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:48,960
Speaker 2: and then say they don't. He acknowledged that he did,

384
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 2: and I thought that was cool. So I highly recommend

385
00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:54,040
Speaker 2: that interview. It's called like I on college basketball, but

386
00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:56,160
Speaker 2: it's seventy minutes with Pope, and I think it was

387
00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:58,320
Speaker 2: really good. We are here at the State Fair with

422
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:34,800

Speaker 4: you like jewelry and watches.

424
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:39,840
Speaker 3: And stuff they know they would steal from that. They

425
00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:42,080
Speaker 3: were thieves. Yeah, thieves are the animal kingdoms.

426
00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:42,919
Speaker 2: What I think it is, I think.

427
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:45,119
Speaker 5: It's a collection of stolen goods to bring them in

428
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 5: here and you know, sell them to.

429
00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:49,159
Speaker 2: Get the heat. I was trying to think about what

430
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:51,720
Speaker 2: something to crow about festival would be. Is that people

431
00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:56,959
Speaker 2: like impersonating crows are crowing about something? Okay, can you can?

432
00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:57,960
Speaker 2: Does anybody know how to do.

00:18:57,920 --> 00:18:58,760

Speaker 3: don't know about a crow though.

00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:04,359
Speaker 2: I don't know if you have crow in you. Well,

Speaker 3: We we're gonna do.

474
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:42,280
Speaker 2: They've invited me to come on the field prior to

475
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:46,480
Speaker 2: the game to watch batting practice, so we can stand

476

Speaker 2: right there next to Ellie. And by the way, September

477
00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:51,520
Speaker 2: the fifth is not a little game. They play the

478
00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:54,879
Speaker 2: Mets that night. Who's who they're going against, Like, this

479
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,159
Speaker 2: is a big game and they're gonna need our help.

480
00:20:57,720 --> 00:20:59,600
Speaker 3: Letting you get a couple of cuts in before the game.

481
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,960
Speaker 2: Ellie's gonna need our tips here before the game. So

482
00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:03,479
Speaker 2: are you in?

483
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 3: Let's go? I'm all in on that. That sounds like

484
00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:06,560
Speaker 3: a lot of fun. Drew.

485
00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:08,440
Speaker 5: Last time you made me wear Reds gear to a

486
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:09,880
Speaker 5: Reds game, I did more harm than good.

487
00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:10,760
Speaker 2: I don't know if you want me to do.

488
00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:12,120
Speaker 3: Have you do in the match game?

489
00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:15,520
Speaker 2: Yeah? No, I just we wearing. I'll dust off the

490
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 2: Doug Flinn shirt they so, I think. So September fifth,

491
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:20,560
Speaker 2: it's it's just a few days before I go to

492
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:23,240
Speaker 2: South Africa. We are gonna go. It's it's the last

493
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:24,800
Speaker 2: home game I'll get to go to all year.

494
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,000
Speaker 4: So that's part of I'm looking forward to it. It

495
00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:28,159
Speaker 4: sounds like a lot of fun, all right.

496
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:30,720
Speaker 2: Eight fed nine two eight oh twenty two eighty seven.

497
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:34,680
Speaker 2: I was on Greg McElroy and Cole Kubrick right before

498
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:38,080
Speaker 2: I came here. I was actually walking trying to find

499
00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,159
Speaker 2: this place while on the phone those guys. Of course,

500
00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:44,040
Speaker 2: nobody knows the SEC better than those two guys, two

501
00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 2: of the biggest announcers that do SEC football. Cole Kublick said,

502
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:51,040
Speaker 2: what do you think Kentucky's gonna do this year? Record wise?

503
00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:54,720
Speaker 2: I said five and seven. He said, you're too pessimistic.

504
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:56,600
Speaker 2: You guys are making a bowl this year.

505
00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:57,680
Speaker 3: There we go.

506
00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:01,720
Speaker 2: That made me feel good. And then Greg McElroy said,

507
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:06,000
Speaker 2: I think Kentucky is the hardest team to predict in

508
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:09,159
Speaker 2: all of college football this year. He said, if you

509
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:13,119
Speaker 2: all win four, it wouldn't shot me. If you won eight,

510
00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:14,160
Speaker 2: it wouldn't.

511
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:14,919
Speaker 3: Shot well, that would shock me.

512
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:18,200
Speaker 2: And he said all of the SEC, the coaches, et cetera,

513
00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:21,680
Speaker 2: have no idea what to think about Kentucky because they

514
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 2: think they could be really good or really bad, and

515
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:27,400
Speaker 2: nobody is really sure. I thought both of those were

516
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:31,399
Speaker 2: interesting comments. Yeah, especially the mystery part. We're all a

517
00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:33,400
Speaker 2: little down because how last year went. But they have

518
00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:34,760
Speaker 2: fifty new players.

519
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:37,720
Speaker 5: Unless you're at every single practice, and even doing that,

520
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:39,280
Speaker 5: it'd be hard to know how they're gonna look when

521
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 5: you finally get out on the field there in a

522
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:40,960
Speaker 5: few weeks.

523
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,639
Speaker 2: And Cole Kubrick is a big offensive line guys, because

524
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:45,920
Speaker 2: he that's what he cares about. He said he's heard

525
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:49,800
Speaker 2: Kentucky's offensive line is this was his words, old school,

526
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:53,760
Speaker 2: good for Kentucky. So that made me feel better. I'm

527
00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:55,800
Speaker 2: not glad. We'll take a break. We'll be right back.

528
00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:59,880
Speaker 2: This is Kentucky Sports Radio, Parker mag It is Kentucky's

00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:17,879
Speaker 2: eight oh twenty two eighty seven. I'm gonna go to the

535
00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:20,560
Speaker 2: phones one Merson rights, Matt. I heard you on McElroy

536
00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,880
Speaker 2: and Cole Kubick. Another thing I like that they said

537
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:27,000
Speaker 2: is they think Kentucky's culture is back, and that they're

538
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:29,520
Speaker 2: hearing people in the SEC say they think it'll be better.

539
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:31,200
Speaker 2: I was glad to hear that too. You know, they

540
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:33,639
Speaker 2: talked to coaches and people around staffs. I thought that

541
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:34,520
Speaker 2: was good news.

542
00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 5: That's something that's been clear even in the media. Got

543
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 5: to go to two practices. Anytime you talk to a player,

544
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 5: it's not just some speak, some messaging that the program

545
00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:45,280
Speaker 5: wants those guys to get out. They're all holding each

546
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 5: other accountable. You can see it if you're around there

547
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:47,600
Speaker 5: at all.

548
00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:49,679
Speaker 2: One person rights. I'd like to know from each of you,

549
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:53,000
Speaker 2: what would be more surprising to you Kentucky winning only

550
00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:58,040
Speaker 2: three games or Kentucky winning seven games, which would be

551
00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:01,920
Speaker 2: more shocking. We all we've all kind of predicted four, five,

552
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:04,679
Speaker 2: or six, which is more shocking? Three or seven.

553
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:07,600
Speaker 4: For me, I think three would be more shocking because

554
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:10,600
Speaker 4: I've already predicted six. So that just means, you see,

555
00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:12,720
Speaker 4: they just need one more, so I could see there

556
00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:14,240
Speaker 4: being a path to seven.

557
00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:15,000
Speaker 3: Three.

558
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:18,040
Speaker 4: I don't think there's any way it's that bad. Four maybe,

559
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:18,680
Speaker 4: but not that bad.

560
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:20,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'd be surprised if it's three. I think they're

561
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:24,240
Speaker 2: gonna they're gonna take They'll steal one from somebody, so

562
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:26,520
Speaker 2: I would say three seven. I mean, okay, you want

563
00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:28,560
Speaker 2: to make the case for seven. The case for seven

564
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 2: is you beat Vandy, you beat Auburn, and you win

565
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:35,640
Speaker 2: two of the whole. Then you win two of you're

566
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:42,160
Speaker 2: either Florida, Tennessee, Texas, Oh Miss at Louisville. Not crazy.

567
00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:45,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, And I think seven is more likely than three two.

568
00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:49,080
Speaker 5: They're gonna win an SEC game. I'm looking at ed Vandy.

569
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,119
Speaker 5: I know it's there and they've won two out of three,

570
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:54,240
Speaker 5: but the league's hopefully caught up to Pavia now they

571
00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:56,919
Speaker 5: know who he is. I think Tennessee might not be

572
00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:58,399
Speaker 5: all that they're hyped up to be. And then you

573
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:01,240
Speaker 5: have Florida coming to Licen in November. I think any

574
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:03,479
Speaker 5: of those games you could count them getting one of them.

575
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:06,919
Speaker 2: There's a clip that was going around on social media

576
00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:10,720
Speaker 2: of an Old Miss podcast saying that the Kentucky game

577
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:13,080
Speaker 2: was the most important game of the lane Kiff and

578
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:16,600
Speaker 2: tenure that if that, if they if he does not

579
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:19,439
Speaker 2: win that game, a lot of fans will start to

580
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:20,720
Speaker 2: be uh a.

581
00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:22,160
Speaker 3: Question to look back at last year.

582
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:24,440
Speaker 4: I mean, you know it could happen, It could happen

583
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:26,040
Speaker 4: this year where it's at least a close game in

584
00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:26,720
Speaker 4: the fourth quarter.

585
00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:29,320
Speaker 5: He got a chance, they got worse and you got better,

586
00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:31,120
Speaker 5: and you beat them there last year.

587
00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:33,199
Speaker 2: So just a simple generic look at the games as

588
00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:35,399
Speaker 2: you should be in. It should be who's up first,

589
00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,480
Speaker 2: Mike is up first, Mike, go ahead, Mike.

590
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:41,119
Speaker 6: Hey, guys, how are y'all this morning?

591
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:42,920
Speaker 2: Doing good?

592
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:46,920
Speaker 6: A question for you if SAE Kentucky goes two and

593
00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,639
Speaker 6: ten this year and they decide to part ways too

594
00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:51,800
Speaker 6: with SEUs, how much you have an impact? Is the

595
00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:54,800
Speaker 6: allocation of money between football and basketball going to impact

596
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 6: their ability to hire an established coach?

597
00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 2: Yeah? I mean that's what's hard is because I appreciate

598
00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 2: the call because Mitch is taking the position that we're

599
00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:08,359
Speaker 2: not gonna know how much of the REV share goes

600
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:10,840
Speaker 2: to football, how much goes to basketball. I have a

601
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:14,639
Speaker 2: fundamental disagreement with him on that, but he articulated his

602
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:17,480
Speaker 2: position because we don't know that it's gonna be hard

603
00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:19,200
Speaker 2: to know when they go out and get a coach

604
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,399
Speaker 2: whether or not the money had anything to do with it.

605
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:22,920
Speaker 2: How you gonna even know because we don't even know

606
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:23,760
Speaker 2: what the money.

607
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:25,679
Speaker 4: Is, right, you know, it's hard to know. You know

608
00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:27,840
Speaker 4: it's gonna have a big impact. You just none of

609
00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:29,280
Speaker 4: like I said, none of us will know about it.

610
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:33,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I don't know. He did, Uh what Pope thing?

611
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:39,200
Speaker 2: He asked Pope whose roster costs more yours or Saint

612
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:44,560
Speaker 2: or Rick Patino's. And Pope said something like, in anything

613
00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:49,680
Speaker 2: I'd do against Patino, I'm beating him. Love that, which

614
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:51,960
Speaker 2: I thought was interesting because I mean, most people think

615
00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:55,800
Speaker 2: Patino's roster costs more than anyone in college basketball. I

616
00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:58,639
Speaker 2: know Pope was kind of kidding, but he was also

617
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,240
Speaker 2: kind of insinuating our costs more than that.

618
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:04,159
Speaker 5: Yeah, he's being playful with Patino. But he also answered

619
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:07,399
Speaker 5: the question somewhat indirectly. But he did not say. You know,

620
00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 5: you think if he if he didn't want the message

621
00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 5: out there they spent a lot, he'd easily put that

622
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:12,920
Speaker 5: on Rick, like, oh Rick spent the most by far,

623
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:13,400
Speaker 5: he's Rick.

624
00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 2: But no, he Pope took that one interesting. You know,

625
00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:21,320
Speaker 2: if you're sitting there building a roster, there's an argument

626
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:24,640
Speaker 2: that you want to put out there that we pay

627
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:28,400
Speaker 2: the most. There's also an argument that if you put

628
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:31,000
Speaker 2: out there we pay the most, you're gonna get asked

629
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:34,080
Speaker 2: for the most, you know what I mean, So, like

630
00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:37,320
Speaker 2: it can kind of go either way, you know. There's

631
00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:41,440
Speaker 2: it's like when you're hiring someone. On the one hand,

632
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:43,920
Speaker 2: if you have a really competitive salary, you want to say,

633
00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:46,360
Speaker 2: we have a really competitive salary, but you also don't

634
00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:48,639
Speaker 2: want to make it to where you could have gotten

635
00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:51,080
Speaker 2: somebody for one hundred thousand dollars and they charge you

636
00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:53,199
Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty thousand dollars because you said you

637
00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:54,960
Speaker 2: pay one hundred and fifty thousand dollars, you know what

638
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:55,280
Speaker 2: I mean.

639
00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:57,680
Speaker 5: Like, since I don't know what you want to do that,

640
00:27:57,840 --> 00:27:59,479
Speaker 5: I think it does help you get to the table though,

641
00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:01,480
Speaker 5: if you're one the top spenders, at least gets you

642
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:03,440
Speaker 5: in the mixing on less than get you down to

643
00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:04,879
Speaker 5: the final stages so you can work it out on

644
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:05,440
Speaker 5: the paperwork.

645
00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 2: Yeah. So I don't know who's up next? Judy is

646
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:10,480
Speaker 2: up next? Judy? Go ahead, Judy?

647
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:15,919
Speaker 7: Hey uh, I just didn't listening to the seventy Minutes

648
00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:22,440
Speaker 7: podcast with Pope and I have not done my research yet,

649
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:28,119
Speaker 7: but they said that Kentucky winning eight of the fifteen

650
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:33,120
Speaker 7: top teams that was this year, but there were two

651
00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:34,520
Speaker 7: other teams that have done it.

652
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:35,119
Speaker 2: The past.

653
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:36,920
Speaker 7: I have not recessed that yet.

654
00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:40,000
Speaker 2: And you all let me know what we don't talk about.

655
00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:42,800
Speaker 2: We don't talk about them, right like if we were

656
00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 2: the one, if we were one of them, we'll just

657
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:47,320
Speaker 2: act like the other people don't exist. There's no reason

658
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:49,520
Speaker 2: to give those other teams a credit.

659
00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:53,360
Speaker 7: Right, I love it? Yes, I agree?

660
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:55,960
Speaker 2: Facts agree, Facts are optional.

661
00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:58,880
Speaker 6: At right? That's right for you all.

00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:14,640
Speaker 4: want to grab one after the show to their love.

668
00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:16,680

00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:17,680

Speaker 4: Cheetos corn dog where they roll the corn dog in

675
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:34,080
Speaker 4: hot cheeto like crushed up hot cheetos.

676
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:37,720

677
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:40,920

678
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:42,160

Speaker 2: Yeah? But go ahead, sir.

722
00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:33,000
Speaker 9: Well, back in nineteen seventy one, I was on the

723
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:35,600
Speaker 9: first team from Kentucky to represent the state in the

724
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:36,800
Speaker 9: Little League World Series?

725
00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:40,520
Speaker 2: Where where was that.

726
00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:43,600
Speaker 9: Garden side Little League in Licenson?

727
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:48,440
Speaker 2: Well, congratulations, did you all win the Little League World Series?

728
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:50,160
Speaker 9: No?

729
00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:50,920
Speaker 2: No, h.

730
00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:54,920
Speaker 9: Lloyd mcclindon was a pitcher from Gary, Indiana, played for

731
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:57,680
Speaker 9: the Red They signed him as a twelve year old

732
00:31:57,720 --> 00:31:58,560
Speaker 9: to be their catcher.

733
00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:01,600
Speaker 2: And that's not true. Five foot eight and twelve year old,

734
00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:04,520
Speaker 2: hang on, just a second, sir, I said, sir, sir,

735
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:07,440
Speaker 2: I might have to stop you. The red did not

736
00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:10,719
Speaker 2: sign twelve year old to be their catcher. First of all,

737
00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:12,320
Speaker 2: I think that violates.

738
00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:15,920
Speaker 9: Child when he was when he was twelve years old,

739
00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:20,400
Speaker 9: that the Reds had signed him to be their catcher

740
00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:23,960
Speaker 9: he was five, they did. It's five homes did not.

741
00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:28,440
Speaker 2: The Reds did not sign a twelve year old to

742
00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:31,320
Speaker 2: be their catcher, Sir. That can't be true if any

743
00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:32,120
Speaker 2: team would do it.

744
00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:35,760
Speaker 9: Okay, okay, they had him, I don't know in their

745
00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:40,480
Speaker 9: farm league as a twelve year old.

746
00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:44,880
Speaker 2: Listen, I believe, Okay, okay, here's what I'd believe. I

747
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,280
Speaker 2: believe the Reds saw him play.

748
00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:48,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe had a scout there.

749
00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:52,400
Speaker 2: I do not believe they signed a twelve year old

750
00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:56,000
Speaker 2: to be their catcher. That's I am almost certain. That's

751
00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:56,920
Speaker 2: against the wall.

752
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:01,960
Speaker 9: Well, okay, we're twelve years old. That was what was

753
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:03,880
Speaker 9: going around the camp that the Reds.

754
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:09,320
Speaker 2: Had, just like you were told there was a ghost

755
00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:12,600
Speaker 2: in the cabin next to you. Now that I can believe, sir.

756
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:20,080
Speaker 9: But anyway, he was five for five. It's five home runs,

757
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:25,200
Speaker 9: Todd Bubbow record for a little league player. He last

758
00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:27,440
Speaker 9: time I saw him, he was coaching the American League

759
00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:28,680
Speaker 9: All Star team.

760
00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:32,680
Speaker 2: Cool wy, well, thank you appreciate the congratulations on being

761
00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:35,000
Speaker 2: the first one you look up.

762
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:37,720
Speaker 3: I can't find anything, just like a make a wish situation.

763
00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:38,520
Speaker 3: I don't think so.

764
00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:41,360
Speaker 2: No. I mean I actually have heard of Lloyd McLean,

765
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:43,720
Speaker 2: and I think he did end up playing in the majors.

766
00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:45,360
Speaker 3: Hey did with the Pirates in the Reds.

767
00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:47,120
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think he was actually pretty good pitch, a

768
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:49,400
Speaker 2: pretty good player. But I do not believe he was

769
00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:51,760
Speaker 2: signed as a twelve year old, although I do like

770
00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:54,160
Speaker 2: the confidence with which he said it. And this is

771
00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:56,880
Speaker 2: what's great about people. He said it with confidence, and

772
00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:58,720
Speaker 2: then I said, well that's what and then he was like,

773
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:00,800
Speaker 2: well that's what people were saying at the time.

774
00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:02,600
Speaker 5: I haven't know, have a hard time believing him with

775
00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:03,760
Speaker 5: five or five of five home.

776
00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:05,920
Speaker 4: Runs, Oh that's right here, hitting five homers and five

777
00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:07,440
Speaker 4: swings at age twelve.

778
00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:10,560
Speaker 2: Now that's cool. Yeah, so he five swings five home runs.

779
00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:12,920
Speaker 4: What it says does not say he had a contract

780
00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:14,120

Speaker 2: five nine, two eight oh twenty two eighty seven. Let's

810
00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:50,600
Speaker 2: talk quickly. Well, first of all, there was a man.

811
00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:52,680
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna point out which one he was, because

812
00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:54,759
Speaker 2: I don't know if he wants me to. But there

813
00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:56,279
Speaker 2: was a man who just came over here and showed

814
00:35:56,320 --> 00:36:01,000
Speaker 2: us a video that he visited Duke University, my law

815
00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:04,840
Speaker 2: school alma mater, and he walked to the front sign.

816
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:08,560
Speaker 2: By the way, I've walked through that gate hundreds of times.

817
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:12,720
Speaker 2: He walked through the front sign in his Kentucky gear

818
00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:17,279
Speaker 2: and Kentucky shorts and then proceeded to pee on the

819
00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:18,080
Speaker 2: Duke sign.

820
00:36:19,880 --> 00:36:22,160
Speaker 10: Can't be doing that. He did it though he got

821
00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:26,000
Speaker 10: away with it in broad daylight. How long ago was that?

822
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:30,279
Speaker 10: How long ago? That's what I was gonna say. Yeah,

823
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:33,440
Speaker 10: I wonder if the guy could be.

824
00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:35,360
Speaker 4: I don't know, like what the penalty is for that,

825
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:36,520
Speaker 4: but it wouldn't be worth it for me.

826
00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:39,480
Speaker 2: Who could it be? Could it be the guy screaming

827
00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:40,920
Speaker 2: statue of limitations?

828
00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:44,120
Speaker 5: I think in the video he's wearing a Tyree's Maxi jersey,

829
00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:44,920
Speaker 5: so it puts.

830
00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:51,160
Speaker 2: It and keep that video. You're you're right next to

00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:58,239
Speaker 2: Make sure you keep that one to yourself. Now that

00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:44,880

871
00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:46,239

Speaker 3: Tickets, early access.

00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:01,040
Speaker 2: How much are those tickets? The tickets but not the

Speaker 3: the tickets.

880
00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:07,080
Speaker 2: I kind of agree with you. Yeah, you get to

881
00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:09,920
Speaker 2: be in the sweep steaks for Big Blue Madness tickets.

882
00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:14,240

883
00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:16,520
Speaker 2: in the Blue Madness tickets?

884
00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:16,880
Speaker 3: Yes?

885
00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:19,960
Speaker 2: I thought so. And then finally you get to be

886
00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:21,960
Speaker 2: part of expanded sweepstakes.

887
00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:24,880
Speaker 3: I don't even know what that means.

888
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:26,880
Speaker 4: So like two of the things that you mentioned, the

889
00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:30,000
Speaker 4: open practice and one other thing I would be interested

890
00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:32,480
Speaker 4: in behind the scenes stuff other than that, I don't know.

891
00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:35,800
Speaker 2: On the fourteen hundred dollars a year one, you also

892
00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:39,759
Speaker 2: get a virtual meat and greet with the players.

893
00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:44,160
Speaker 4: Oh, I get to zoom with no no nos basketball football.

894
00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:46,759
Speaker 5: It's another tier up for basketball football players. That's like

895
00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:51,400
Speaker 5: probably a sweet This is basketball or football, not guarantee.

896
00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:55,120
Speaker 3: Oh I get to talk to like a bowler, someone

897
00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:56,080
Speaker 3: on the rifle.

898
00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:59,720
Speaker 2: Team, but via zoom. Oh wow, you have the facility

899
00:39:59,760 --> 00:39:59,920
Speaker 2: to it.

900
00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:01,920
Speaker 3: How much I gotta pay for that?

901
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:04,960
Speaker 2: That's fourteen year now, if you get up to twenty

902
00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:07,880
Speaker 2: six hundred dollars a year, then you get a basketball.

903
00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:10,480
Speaker 4: Oh okay, I gotta pay twelve hundred more dollars just

904
00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:13,240
Speaker 4: so you know you're gonna get Reese Potters.

905
00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:16,839
Speaker 3: You're not selling me on this very well.

906
00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:20,799
Speaker 2: No, okay, so look I'm seeing this. I'm I'm giving

907
00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:23,799
Speaker 2: it a hard time. I think this is important, Drew,

908
00:40:24,160 --> 00:40:27,840
Speaker 2: but I also think, again, nobody asked me my opinion.

909
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:31,800
Speaker 2: This pretty expensive stuff. I mean, the first tier is

910
00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:34,520
Speaker 2: one hundred dollars, but all you get at one hundred

911
00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:38,160
Speaker 2: dollars is quote exclusive perks, but it doesn't even say

912
00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:41,480
Speaker 2: what they are. And then everything I just read you

913
00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:44,840
Speaker 2: starts at three hundred and twenty dollars a year. I

914
00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:48,279
Speaker 2: mean that's really expensive. I think they're gonna have to

915
00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:51,799
Speaker 2: give a little bit more to people to me. Of

916
00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:54,839
Speaker 2: all those things they say, the open practice is kind

917
00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:57,960
Speaker 2: of the coolest one of all of them, to be honest,

918
00:40:58,840 --> 00:40:59,279
Speaker 2: it is.

919
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:01,839
Speaker 5: But well, there's there's two types people that are gonna

920
00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:03,560
Speaker 5: join the club. There are the people who just want

921
00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:05,879
Speaker 5: to give the money and okay, they live out of town,

922
00:41:06,160 --> 00:41:08,200
Speaker 5: Sure I get a T shirt. Whatever, here's a thousand bucks.

923
00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:10,359
Speaker 5: I just want us to be good that they'll get

924
00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:14,080
Speaker 5: them regardless. But that's a pretty underwhelming list of experiences

925
00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:16,080
Speaker 5: for the other people that are signing up to get

926
00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:16,840
Speaker 5: something in return.

927
00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:18,480
Speaker 4: I mean, call me crazy, but I would rather take

928
00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:20,760
Speaker 4: about three hundred and twenty dollars and buy a ticket

929
00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:23,120
Speaker 4: to a game than spend it on that.

930
00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:28,640
Speaker 2: I think you've got to I mean, I think fans

931
00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:30,520
Speaker 2: want to support it, but I sit here and look

932
00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:34,600
Speaker 2: at the fans here. I just this is I just

933
00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:39,480
Speaker 2: want Kentucky to not forget about the average fan. Like

934
00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:42,840
Speaker 2: this whole seven hundred and fifty dollars a year, that's nice,

935
00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:47,120
Speaker 2: but the heart of Big Blue Nation are people that

936
00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:49,920
Speaker 2: come to the State Fair to watch a random radio
