Speaker 3: Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, grandpas and
Speaker 3: grandma's aunts and uncles, and all you crazy people in
Speaker 3: Big Blue Nation. It is the Thursday, May eighth edition
Speaker 3: of Kentucky Sports Radio. As always tex Sports Radio sponsored
Speaker 3: by the T J. Smith Low's called TJ and Shannon
Speaker 3: make them pay. He'll make them pay. We'll have our
Speaker 3: Clarks Puppishop phone number will be up and going all
Speaker 3: day today. That's eight five nine two, eight oh two
Speaker 3: two eighty seven. The Avision Glass Texas is my I
Speaker 3: guess my cell phone today. If you know what's number
Speaker 3: or not. If you don't have it, tough, I'm not
Speaker 3: giving it out. I got it, It's okay, No, it's
Speaker 3: all right, and then we'll have our whiskey thief call today.
Speaker 3: So listen, guys. Black smoke over the Vatican this morning.
Speaker 3: The cardinals have not elected a new pope, but there
Speaker 3: was white smoke over the iHeart Building today. Oh, because
Speaker 3: we have new hosts today. Well, the white smoke about
Speaker 3: the equipment was on fire or something. Ryan Levan, Drew Franklin,
Speaker 3: Shannon the Dude, Billy Relich, Mario Maitland. It takes five
Speaker 3: of us, four of us to replace Matt Jones, who
Speaker 3: understandably Drew is going to pass on the show today.
Speaker 3: He's got a long day today, flies back from Phoenix,
Speaker 3: Susie lands in Cincinnati, Mario's picking him up and then
Speaker 3: they're driving three hours to Owensborough tonight. Long day, so
Speaker 3: we kind of understand why he's, uh, load management, load management,
Speaker 3: taking a pass today.
Speaker 4: Pulling a sovereignty, sitting this one out to rest up
Speaker 4: for the next week.
Speaker 5: Go.
Speaker 4: We're at the Kentucky's Skin Cancer Center in Owensborough tomorrow
Speaker 4: I'll go and shout that out now so we all
Speaker 4: we all have a little bit of traveling to do
Speaker 4: coming up. I'm still I'm still fulfilling the effects from Phoenix.
Speaker 4: I need this coffee to kick in. And after your
Speaker 4: intro you seem like you've had plenty of coffee. When
Speaker 4: did you work on that smoke joke?
Speaker 3: Was that? Is that off the coff or was that
Speaker 3: on the drive over? Oh?
Speaker 4: No, that's show prep, okay, because short notice is when
Speaker 4: we figured this out here.
Speaker 3: My alarm goes off at seven fifteen to make sure
Speaker 3: Josiah's up and going. I checked my phone and Matt
Speaker 3: sent us a message at two thirty in the morning.
Speaker 3: Our time, guys, I need to pass on the show.
Speaker 3: It's gonna be a long day. I need to be
Speaker 3: fresh for Friday's remote in Owensboro. So from seven to
Speaker 3: fifteen on I've been up. I couldn't go back to
Speaker 3: sleep because all of a sudden, my mind's working on like
Speaker 3: what we're gonna talk about? There's nothing going on. Drew
Speaker 3: and Shannon, Billy, we're all gonna be there. What are
Speaker 3: we gonna talk about?
Speaker 4: I was up early because I wrote the morning post
Speaker 4: on KSR today. I was up a little before seven
Speaker 4: to do that. But I get text to my computer
Speaker 4: and you're the only person who don't doesn't come to
Speaker 4: my computer because they're green. So even though Matt had
Speaker 4: sent the message, I still do know this because I
Speaker 4: hadn't looked at my phone until close to nine am.
Speaker 4: So I trust that you did all of the show prep.
Speaker 4: I'm just hearing my usual seat, ready to react to
Speaker 4: whatever you brought for us.
Speaker 3: Well, I've got my list of topics already used the
Speaker 3: black smoke analogy. That's good though, that was really good.
Speaker 3: Now what so you know the Cardinals went to went
Speaker 3: into the Sistine Chapel. They're oh for one nothing elect
Speaker 3: no new pope elected.
Speaker 4: Yesterday I took this as good news. It means Pizza
Speaker 4: Ball is still alive. Still one night, I think it
Speaker 4: would just gone to the favorite. But the longer it goes,
Speaker 4: I think the better our got. Pizza Ball. It can
Speaker 4: pull this off.
Speaker 3: And Shann like I said yesterday, if he wins, he
Speaker 3: can't change his name. Get they changed their name to
Speaker 3: Pope John Paul and Pope Francis. He's got to eat
Speaker 3: Pope Pizza Bala, right, Well, he would right, I mean
Speaker 3: that's his you're telling me they actually changed their last name.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, they've because they've they Francis wasn't really his
Speaker 3: name wasn't Francis correct, I'm pretty sure its papal name Pappal.
Speaker 3: Look at you. Wow, See this coffee's kicking in. I'm
Speaker 3: gonna be I have to no idea.
Speaker 2: I thought that Pope Francis was actually his name was Francis.
Speaker 2: But yeah, Pizza Bala I feel like Pope Pizza Bala
Speaker 2: would be Pizza bal is perfect. Is it a role
Speaker 2: they have to do that or is it like you
Speaker 2: have the option to, like, you know, have a radio
Speaker 2: name if you want to.
Speaker 3: Uh, well, we'll get into that maybe in the next segment.
Speaker 3: We have a little more research. We want to go
Speaker 3: through all of our knowledge. I want to go on
Speaker 3: my show prep list already in the first segment. You know,
Speaker 3: like a wrestling name or something. You know, Well, you
Speaker 3: mean those wrestling names aren't real. You mean his real
Speaker 3: name is not cash Flow, mister Spectacular, Reverend Ronnie. Those
Speaker 3: aren't real names.
Speaker 2: Well, some of them might be, but but no, not
Speaker 2: all of them.
Speaker 3: Your name's real.
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, well, the first name is not the last
Speaker 2: The dude is actually not my my last name, believe
Speaker 2: it or not.
Speaker 3: Right, No, Uh, you know, there's not a lot going on,
Speaker 3: but I thought the one news topic that I guess
Speaker 3: we should maybe lead with is our boy. Aaron Torres
Speaker 3: did a post a podcast. Well hi, Billy, Yeah he doesn't.
Speaker 3: He's not always on this.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 3: I forget No, I'm here headphones on. He's on a microphone.
Speaker 3: Good morning, Billy. How are you doing. I'm doing great.
Speaker 3: Ryan here looks great. Thank you.
Speaker 6: It must have been really tough for Matt and Drew
Speaker 6: to go play a TPC course in Arizona and go
Speaker 6: to the bet gala.
Speaker 3: I got a lot of sympathy for you guys.
Speaker 4: Warm out. Hey, I'm here, I'm I answered the bell.
Speaker 4: The last day off was in like September, So I'm
Speaker 4: just gonna keep showing up.
Speaker 6: And Ryan, you're right. Well, it's not strictly required. It
Speaker 6: is custom for a newly elected pope to choose a
Speaker 6: new papal.
Speaker 3: Name, but they do. They have to, not a requirement.
Speaker 2: There you go, it's a tradition. We're keeping Pizza Bala.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I think Pizza Bala is his made up name. He's
Speaker 4: getting in front of this knowing he's gonna win.
Speaker 3: Uh, Billy, I know you and I both had a
Speaker 3: little fomo. The guys are playing golf out there, and
Speaker 3: we see him at the Big Bet Gala. Oh yeah,
Speaker 3: going on.
Speaker 6: Well yeah, when Matt brought me on the show to
Speaker 6: say I could play TPC Tates Creek with him while
Speaker 6: the guys went to Arizona, I had a little bit
Speaker 6: of fomo, a little bit of different.
Speaker 3: Nothing wrong with TPC Creek. That's my best round. Yeah,
Speaker 3: but you got were looking great, especially Mario over there,
Speaker 3: all right, uh Aeron Torres. We's a friend of ours,
Speaker 3: friend of the show.
Speaker 4: Former KSR writer Aaron wrote a book, one in Fun Fun,
Speaker 4: one of the few books I've written read in the
Speaker 4: last twenty years.
Speaker 3: He had Jaden Quaintan's on his podcast and Jayden Quainton's
Speaker 3: had said something to Jack Pilgrim. How long ago do
Speaker 3: you say that to Jack Pilgrim was.
Speaker 4: Shortly after his commitment is Daring Drew Palouz. I believe
Speaker 4: he came on Drew Paluza too. See he's been doing
Speaker 4: he's been good at doing interviews since making the commitment.
Speaker 3: Well in the podcast, with Aaron Torres. He says, Look,
Speaker 3: I'm not only gonna be ready by September, I'm gonna
Speaker 3: be banging and pushing and shoving and doing my job.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna be ready to go by September, which means
Speaker 3: it's plenty of time before the practice starts. I mean,
Speaker 3: if that's the case, Drew, if that's fact I've said,
Speaker 3: I think Drew Jayden Quaints could be our best player,
Speaker 3: may not be the leading scorer, but could be the
Speaker 3: best player on the team next year. And if he's
Speaker 3: healthy when the season starts, look out.
Speaker 4: I don't know much about ACL injuries. I'm not a doctor.
Speaker 4: He injured it in February. That seems like a very
Speaker 4: optimistic timeline. I hope it's the case, and he's said
Speaker 4: a couple of times that's what he's shooting for, But
Speaker 4: that would be a pretty miraculous comeback to be at
Speaker 4: full contact, as he said he wants to do by September.
Speaker 3: Hopefully that's the case.
Speaker 4: And I don't he didn't clarify if it meant just
Speaker 4: kind of back on the court, running, practicing, or actually
Speaker 4: wants to play in the season opener. I think he
Speaker 4: told Jack a while back his goals the season opener.
Speaker 4: But if he can pull that off, that's an incredible
Speaker 4: recovery time coming back from a serious injury just at
Speaker 4: the end of last season.
Speaker 3: Billy, If that's the fact this team went from a
Speaker 3: good team to a Final four team with him healthy.
Speaker 3: If he's healthy the whole year, that's how good I
Speaker 3: think he is.
Speaker 6: Yeah, this whole front court, it's been exciting to see
Speaker 6: the depth that they have. But if you're telling me
Speaker 6: Quaintance is going to be ready to go from the
Speaker 6: start of the year, not only does that make me
Speaker 6: more optimistic that they can win in the Champions Classic,
Speaker 6: but also the Louisville game as it's before the Champions
Speaker 6: Classic this year, so well.
Speaker 4: I think Louisville is going to try to move the
Speaker 4: game to August now because I think they put it
Speaker 4: in November because he was Acuil. Everybody's kind of saying
Speaker 4: mid December for Quaintance. I think they got to help
Speaker 4: their chances. I mean, they've lost fourteen out of sixteen.
Speaker 4: They got to go to some extreme measures here to
Speaker 4: try to win this game. So I think they moved
Speaker 4: it to November thinking Kentucky wouldn't have quaintance. An hour
Speaker 4: after that news comes out and Quentin says he's shooting
Speaker 4: for September. So I think Louisvill's gonna try to push
Speaker 4: it back to August and do anything they can to
Speaker 4: win this game.
Speaker 3: Now, you're right, acls Are. They're a funny animal. Some
Speaker 3: people do take eight ten months, but then I always
Speaker 3: go back. Well, Derek Anderson ripped his ACL in January.
Speaker 3: He was ready to go by the Final four, just
Speaker 3: a couple months later. It may be individual healing process.
Speaker 3: Maybe guys heal faster than others, But I'm telling you,
Speaker 3: when I saw him say that that very confident. In
Speaker 3: these comments to Aaron Torrez. I just think if you're
Speaker 3: able to put him on the floor with Brandon Garritson
Speaker 3: at the same time, the front court obviously very strong,
Speaker 3: then you got Aberdeen and Otega and low Ryn at
Speaker 3: you're starting five. I mean that's a team that can
Speaker 3: win a lot of get when the whole thing really.
Speaker 4: Yeah, at first we thought it might even be se
Speaker 4: played before you see him, which is so be great
Speaker 4: to get him to that point. If he goes that early,
Speaker 4: that's a difference maker. Also, just like hearing from this guy.
Speaker 4: As you mentioned, we had him on UH when I
Speaker 4: was hosting Jack's had him one eleven or not eleven.
Speaker 4: Personnel sources say the interview with Torres, I really just
Speaker 4: enjoy hearing from this kid. Some of these guys, especially
Speaker 4: to be eighteen years old, they're not good at interviews.
Speaker 4: It's a one word answer. It's clear they don't want
Speaker 4: to be there. He's been a really fun interview, not
Speaker 4: just on our shows, but hearing him on others, and
Speaker 4: I just I like him a lot, not just what
Speaker 4: he will bring to the basketball court eventually, but that
Speaker 4: was a good interview with Torres yesterday, and.
Speaker 3: He has a lot to prove.
Speaker 6: Sorry to interrupt you, I saw you, but I was
Speaker 6: going to say, I mean, it kind of fell through
Speaker 6: with Kentucky when Cal left, and it was a place
Speaker 6: he wanted to be. So now he comes back and
Speaker 6: with the first round grade and the next NBA draft,
Speaker 6: I think he wants to prove people that he is
Speaker 6: deserving of that and wants to play well for Big
Speaker 6: Blue Nation.
Speaker 3: Do you think he would be the best player like
Speaker 3: I think he will be. I guess it may not.
Speaker 4: The leading score they always going to lock up our
Speaker 4: I think he's got the best player spot, especially if
Speaker 4: he even improved from last year. True, I think he's
Speaker 4: looking at potential definitely all SEC, but maybe All American
Speaker 4: season if he can continue or even take another step forward.
Speaker 4: But Quaintans is the biggest NBA talent. He's projected as
Speaker 4: a lottery pick right now, as long as he can
Speaker 4: prove that he's back to full health.
Speaker 3: One of my friends did tell me this past weekend
Speaker 3: he is he's fearful that one team is going to
Speaker 3: tell Otega, we're going to take you in the second round.
Speaker 3: You're working younger, you're going to get a guaranteed content.
Speaker 3: We're going to take you in the second round, and
Speaker 3: you're going to be have a guaranteed contract. Does that
Speaker 3: still concern you?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 4: I think he'd be crazy to take second round money
Speaker 4: with whatever UK will pay him. I don't know exactly
Speaker 4: what check UK will write, but I don't know that
Speaker 4: a second round probably bounce around G League and back
Speaker 4: to the NBA. That kind of set up. Why wouldn't
Speaker 4: you put that off a year and go make a
Speaker 4: at least a million or two at Kentucky.
Speaker 6: Yeah, And I think the latest Bleach report mock draft.
Speaker 6: He's the last pick of the second round, of the
Speaker 6: last pick of the draft. And I think there's been
Speaker 6: some reporting on KSR that he would only go if
Speaker 6: he was guaranteed a first round spot.
Speaker 3: So and some guys are what they are, so they
Speaker 3: just go.
Speaker 4: If he comes back and improves his three point shot,
Speaker 4: that's go from second round to first round. Because he's
Speaker 4: got a lot of other good tools, it's the three
Speaker 4: point shot that hold him back. And if he has
Speaker 4: a whole summer working on that, can fix that little
Speaker 4: hitch in his jumper and shoot it a better clip.
Speaker 4: Next year, the NBA check gets a lot bigger. And
Speaker 4: you already made another year of a lot of money
Speaker 4: at Kentucky and you in your second season here.
Speaker 3: That's it, man, he can make himself a lot of
Speaker 3: money if he comes back and improves he's three point shot.
Speaker 3: He's got the rest of the game. And it seemed
Speaker 3: to me like when the season started last year, his
Speaker 3: shot was a little smoother, and as the season went on,
Speaker 3: that hitch got a little worse and a little worse
Speaker 3: and little worse. Is that you can feel the same way.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that'll be a priority this summer working on that.
Speaker 4: Because I mean getting to the basket. We saw what
Speaker 4: he can do there. What he have double figures in
Speaker 4: every game but two or something crazy. Yeah, yeah, ball
Speaker 4: handling could improve a little bit, but those are all
Speaker 4: things that are fixable. Some guys you just can't get bigger,
Speaker 4: you can't get quicker, you can't get stronger.
Speaker 3: They are what they are.
Speaker 4: But Otake always still has some stuff he can work
Speaker 4: with and really improve his game with another year in college.
Speaker 6: It'll be odd because my expectations were pretty low for
Speaker 6: him going into the year. I mean, coming from Oklahoma,
Speaker 6: I didn't expect him to be the guy that scores
Speaker 6: double figure through every game but two. So but so
Speaker 6: now I think I go into the season, if he's
Speaker 6: on the roster, is he is the best player on
Speaker 6: the team. So it's gonna be It's gonna be definitely
Speaker 6: a change of expectations for what we see from him.
Speaker 4: On the original point of Quaintons, if he comes back
Speaker 4: to full strength and can can match the potential that
Speaker 4: they've been saying he has since he's been Heck, he
Speaker 4: played last year at seventeen, which is crazy. But you
Speaker 4: know what they expect he can become. He will be
Speaker 4: a huge difference maker, and we already have so much
Speaker 4: depth agreed, it's almost like you don't need him. We'd
Speaker 4: love to have him for the Louisville game in the
Speaker 4: Champions Classic, but it's not the end of the world.
Speaker 4: It's not like he's the only option there. So if
Speaker 4: he does have to be a little more patient, that's fine.
Speaker 4: As long as he's able to play it at a
Speaker 4: high level at some point, he makes a big difference
Speaker 4: for Kentucky.
Speaker 3: We got a full house today, Drew Franklin, Shannon the dude,
Speaker 3: Billy r Sports and he's hair and we're gonna take
Speaker 3: your calls as well. Breaking news right before the show start.
Speaker 3: We got to get to that little disappointing breaking news.
Speaker 3: We'll get to that. And we're gonna have another one
Speaker 3: of our our drafts, Shannon. You know, like Matt had
Speaker 3: his draft, the All Caliperi team, then we did the
Speaker 3: All Tubby team. We're gonna have a different kind of draft,
Speaker 3: probably in the second hour today, Rick Patino's team. No, No,
Speaker 3: it's a little just kind of a little little because
Speaker 3: I think Matt still wants to do that with us.
Speaker 3: It's gonna be just a little bit of a different.
Speaker 2: You're gonna give us like a heads up. We got
Speaker 2: a propars draft. Well, maybe I'll tell you off the
Speaker 2: air to get our picks together.
Speaker 3: All right, we gotta get in the green room, our
Speaker 3: big board, our war room and get our boards together.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Eight five nine two two eight seven, Ryan Drew, Shannon,

Speaker 3: Kentucky late tonight and then we'll do our show in
Speaker 3: Owensboro tomorrow at the Kentucky's Skin Center skin Cancer Center.
Speaker 5: Uh.
Speaker 3: And where's the where's the location? It seems like, Shannon,
Speaker 3: what you told me to go to the hotel tomorrow?
Speaker 2: The wrong dress on the pre show. So, Billy, what
Speaker 2: is the correct address?
Speaker 3: It's New Hartford Road, right, twenty nine fifteen, New Hartford Road.
Speaker 5: That's it.
Speaker 3: Seeing on his brother, there's an old Hartford Road, and
Speaker 3: obviously now there's a new Hartford Road there. We're at
Speaker 3: the location at New Hartford Road. Pre show will be there.
Speaker 3: Pre se'll be there. We're getting facials. Are you excited
Speaker 3: for that?
Speaker 7: Ryan?
Speaker 3: I've never had a facial. I don't even know what
Speaker 3: they do in a facial?
Speaker 5: What what?
Speaker 3: What do they do when you have a facial? Well,
Speaker 3: I don't want to spoil it, but I mean if
Speaker 3: any any of us have had one, I guarantee it's you.
Speaker 3: What do you mean by that, pampered baby?
Speaker 4: I have a nice skincare routine. I wear a nice moisturizer,
Speaker 4: sunscreen every day. But no, I've not had a facial.
Speaker 3: Oh, you've not had a facial. I've never had I haven't, Shannon,
Speaker 3: of you.
Speaker 2: Not a professional one. I think I've put on some
Speaker 2: of Sarah's like mask things that you can put on
Speaker 2: at night.
Speaker 3: Shannon's had a different facial eight five two to eighty seven.
Speaker 2: Talking about that, I'm talking about the uh you can
Speaker 2: put like a I don't know, it's like a piece
Speaker 2: of plastic thing that you put over like your your
Speaker 2: face that's got like all these is that what we're
Speaker 2: doing tomorrow? Moisture rising stuff. I think they're like scrubbing
Speaker 2: your face and they may put like.
Speaker 4: A screen, get some dead skin, put some serum's on there.
Speaker 4: Shannon and I think you were wearing a collagen mask
Speaker 4: compared I had one on last week. I'm not shot
Speaker 4: on my skincare routine.
Speaker 3: A college mask.
Speaker 2: Thank you.
Speaker 3: That's what You've got to.
Speaker 4: Take care of your body, Ryan, at your temple, getting older,
Speaker 4: you got to make sure everything looks good. Sunscreen is
Speaker 4: very important. That's that's your My advice to everyone listening.
Speaker 4: Where your sunscreen?
Speaker 3: So were you and me and Matt are getting our
Speaker 3: facials during the pre show? Yes, I have. I have
Speaker 3: an eight forty five appointment.
Speaker 2: I didn't know we had appointments. Oh yeah, that's actually
Speaker 2: Central time. So well, Matt, Matt's not gonna make the time.
Speaker 2: I can tell you that because he's going to be coming.
Speaker 3: What from Mario's driving driving. Yeah, yeah, I don't think.
Speaker 3: What are you good? Are you doing yours during KSR?
Speaker 6: They Yeah, I'm gonna do it afterwards. We're gonna try
Speaker 6: to do Shannon's during the pre show.
Speaker 3: But I don't know how good that.
Speaker 2: That's gonna be a train wreck, but we'll give it
Speaker 2: a try and see what happens.
Speaker 3: We'll see, so we'll be there tomorrow. I'll get our
Speaker 3: facials and try a new thing after we're sticking around
Speaker 3: for some barbecue, right. It is the festival, the Barbecue
Speaker 3: Festival in Owensburg.
Speaker 4: I don't think i've been in twenty years. I used
Speaker 4: to try to hit it every year. It probably went
Speaker 4: four or five times consecutively. I'm looking forward to our show,
Speaker 4: first facial and then hanging around a little bit and
Speaker 4: eating every piece of barbecue in town.
Speaker 3: I mean, we talk a lot about Hibilly Days and
Speaker 3: Pikeville Court Days in Mount Sterling. The Barbecue Festival owns
Speaker 3: Burro is right up there when it comes to people
Speaker 3: watching and things. You don't think eating way too much food,
Speaker 3: way too music, greasy, nasty food. Not nasty, but a
Speaker 3: bat on your stomach food.
Speaker 4: I won't call it the healthiest day I have. But
Speaker 4: you know when you were at Wesleyan, did you have
Speaker 4: some you all go tear up the barber Yes?
Speaker 3: Every year, Oh my goodness, Yes absolutely, We've been there
Speaker 3: many times. But I haven't been to the Barbecue Festival
Speaker 3: in probably thirty years. Well, it's time, so it's time
Speaker 3: to go back. Shannon. You're in for a tree if
Speaker 3: you guys, you got to stick around to go down
Speaker 3: and just kind of walk. But all the good people
Speaker 3: watching will be like in the evening, you know, that's
Speaker 3: when the people come out. Peopill come out. Uh, freaks out,
Speaker 3: freaks come out at night.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well I'll I'll stick around for some barbecue. I'm
Speaker 2: down with that. I don't know that I'll be sticking
Speaker 2: out for the stick around for the freaks coming out,
Speaker 2: as you put.
Speaker 3: It later on in the night though. Eight five nine
Speaker 3: two eight h two two eight seven. That's our Clars
Speaker 3: Pumping Shop phone number. We did get this on the
Speaker 3: a Vision Glass Tex machine because guy, I guess has
Speaker 3: my cell phone number. A lot of times ACL recovery
Speaker 3: depends on the severity of the tear and the health
Speaker 3: and shape of the person. Someone active in good physical
Speaker 3: health takes less time in most cases.
Speaker 2: Well maybe I know, like Ronald Acuna Junior drew for
Speaker 2: the Braves, he tore his ACL. I think it was
Speaker 2: a year ago, and I don't think he's coming back
Speaker 2: till July, so that would put it like fourteen months
Speaker 2: for him. But to come back in seven months, that's
Speaker 2: that's crazy. And you said, Derek, and you said Anderson
Speaker 2: came back in two months.
Speaker 3: Ryan, he the tear was in like January and he
Speaker 3: was ready to go when the Cats were playing in
Speaker 3: the final four. That's insane, it is unbelievable. And then Patino,
Speaker 3: you know, famously did not play him right. Well, I
Speaker 3: could say why he practiced that day full practice, but
Speaker 3: they did not play him in the game for fear
Speaker 3: of risking further injury and you know, damaging his NBA future.
Speaker 4: Uh, Shannon, you mentioned the Braves. Matt didn't let us
Speaker 4: talk about it. I know we lost last night, but
Speaker 4: we won the series over summer of eli. Actually some
Speaker 4: bad news. Hunter Green got hurt last night, won't We
Speaker 4: won't celebrate that. We don't like injuries. But since he
Speaker 4: wouldn't even let us say the results yesterday, we got
Speaker 4: to work in that. Outside of last night, it was
Speaker 4: a good series for Atlanta.
Speaker 2: Well, it's actually a four game series, so they got
Speaker 2: we got another one, got back board tonight, so I
Speaker 2: got ahead of myself in it's okay, we can make
Speaker 2: it three games to one. But yeah, the Reds have
Speaker 2: been banged up with this series. Their left field just
Speaker 2: broke his forearm in Game one and that was a
Speaker 2: I don't know if you saw that. That was crazy.
Speaker 2: But Matt Olsen for the Braves ended up with an
Speaker 2: inside the park home run. The left fielder, I think
Speaker 2: it was Callahan, I think is his name, broke his
Speaker 2: forum when he ran against the wall and just laid
Speaker 2: there on the ground in pain. The balls right next
Speaker 2: to him. Meanwhile, Matt Olson is just circling the bases.
Speaker 2: Some of the Reds fans weren't too happy about that, Ryan,
Speaker 2: But you know the play continues, right, just like in
Speaker 2: football or basketball. Right, it's a live ball.
Speaker 3: You keep going.
Speaker 4: We saw a losing record, though. It's not fun as
Speaker 4: a potential World Series team before the season began. It's
Speaker 4: not fun to be in third in the division.
Speaker 3: Well, going into last night, the Reds had lost five
Speaker 3: in a row, and then last night they won, but
Speaker 3: they lost Hunter maybe lost Hunter Green he left the game.
Speaker 3: I will point out my Saint Louis Cardinals have won
Speaker 3: five in a row. Okay, there we go, there we go, Oh,
Speaker 3: there we go. But the baseball season for that division,
Speaker 3: the Reds and the Cardinals are not doing well. Braves,
Speaker 3: Your braves are not doing well. Who's your team, Billy?
Speaker 3: The Rays?
Speaker 6: The Rays, and they're playing in that stupid minor league
Speaker 6: ballpark because the roof got torn off when they had
Speaker 6: that storm come, and it just doesn't feel like a
Speaker 6: real season. I don't know, it just feels like exhibition games.
Speaker 3: But the Rays a in trouble. There's no doubt.
Speaker 2: Cardinals Reds are only three games back out of first,
Speaker 2: so they're not doing that bad. It's just a terrible division.
Speaker 3: Terrible division. Yeah, all right, eight five nine two eight
Speaker 3: two two eight seven. That's the Clark's pumpishot phone Numerlet's

Speaker 3: Taylor's tavern. Those were the hotspots and bar like you
Speaker 3: were in college.
Speaker 4: You don't have to tell anything you don't want to tell.
Speaker 4: But I bet r young Ron Lemon when he wasn't
Speaker 4: still in bases and like to get after a little bit.
Speaker 3: Well, Barnaby's was as big as any place in the Evansville, Ellensboro,
Speaker 3: Henderson area. People would travel over from Evansville to go
Speaker 3: to Barnaby's. They had it was crazy and the brass. Mmm,

Speaker 3: two eight seven. That's our phoneer if you want to
Speaker 3: call and get on board. Uh, we have one minute
Speaker 3: to the break. I don't want to have not enough

Speaker 3: want to say the UK graduation is this weekend.
Speaker 7: UH.
Speaker 3: That details you a couple of things. Stay away from
Speaker 3: downtown unless you have to do not drive through downtown.
Speaker 3: But if you are coming up to the graduation, come
Speaker 3: to Chaos Bar and Grill. We get a lot of
Speaker 3: people with a lot of families to come out before
Speaker 3: or after the graduation. So it's an all day event.
Speaker 3: It's gonna be going on all weekend.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, it just completely takes over downtown. Congratulations
Speaker 4: everyone graduating. We're gonna have some I guess some of
Speaker 4: the basketball players maybe go.
Speaker 3: Through it and grad I'm sure they probably will.
Speaker 4: But we'll have pictures and all that on the website
Speaker 4: of any of the athletes that go through. But it's
Speaker 4: it's here for everyone graduating UK.
Speaker 3: Stay away from downtown. We're right back. This is COATEEIC
Speaker 3: Sports Radio, TJ Smith personal injury attorney call TJ. He'll
Speaker 3: make them pay.
Speaker 2: Now more of Kentucky Sports Radio present it by Stockton Mortgage.
Speaker 2: Here's Matt Jones.
Speaker 3: All right, welcome back, Thank you Sports Radio. Ryan, Drew, Shannon,
Speaker 3: Billy Mario, the whole group's here. I got this on
Speaker 3: the Avision Glass text machine. This guy obviously has my
Speaker 3: cell phone. My father was an orthopedic surgeon in Louisville.
Speaker 3: He said Derek Anderson's injury had to be misdiagnosed. He
Speaker 3: told me at the time he has never heard of
Speaker 3: an athlete ready to compete in two months post surgery.
Speaker 3: And we'll never see another athlete again coming back from
Speaker 3: an acl ACL injury like that, So we can't count
Speaker 3: on that for the Jaden Quaintance return.
Speaker 2: Well, maybe Deren Anderson was just like a tiny tear.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 2: I don't know what I'm talking about, but I'm just
Speaker 2: trying to make sense of it. Coming back after two
Speaker 2: months after an ACL tear. That's at That sounds crazy And.
Speaker 3: Those stories are legendary. How they were in Indianapolis at
Speaker 3: the Final four and it was on the Sunday they
Speaker 3: beat on the Saturday, they played Arizona on Monday. Oh goodness,
Speaker 3: I can't remember who they played on Saturday and one
Speaker 3: Minnesota is that it? How do we not know this?
Speaker 3: It's my favorite season and team. Okay, this is the
Speaker 3: ninety seven team. Yeah, I don't know. I don't have it.
Speaker 3: I can't remember. Why are you covering the team? I was, Yeah,
Speaker 3: I was. That was thirty years ago. Yeah, I was eleven.
Speaker 3: That's why my memories. Somebody to look it up. And
Speaker 3: so they practiced on Sunday, a full practice. It was Minnesota.
Speaker 3: There we go Minnesota, and uh, Derek Anderson practiced on
Speaker 3: that Sunday in between the two games, full practice and
Speaker 3: was the old Derrick Anderson like practice, lights out. And
Speaker 3: then Patino still did not want to play him in
Speaker 3: the Monday championship game, although if you remember, he did
Speaker 3: let him go out and.
Speaker 4: Shoot two free throws, shot free that made it worse.
Speaker 4: I do remember that very well. My boy, he's in now,
Speaker 4: where's he been the whole time?
Speaker 3: Yeah? I wish he was shooting the free throws that
Speaker 3: Nazi Mohammad shot that night, because Nazy was zero of
Speaker 3: six and they got beat by Arizona. Could have been
Speaker 3: the rare college three peat, could have been a five
Speaker 3: two seven. After Clarks publish out phone him all right,
Speaker 3: I had some breaking news Shannon, right before the show
Speaker 3: started today.
Speaker 2: Do you want the sounder or shoot.
Speaker 3: The TBT? Tournament announced that they are not going to
Speaker 3: be playing in Lexington this year. They will again be
Speaker 3: playing back in Louisville because the ticket sales went a
Speaker 3: lot more sold from the Louisville fans and they.
Speaker 4: Got four thousand. I mean, we still host the games
Speaker 4: of morel but this is the regional final. Regional final,
Speaker 4: they're still lexinging games. But Louisville won the contest. Those
Speaker 4: losers they care a lot more than any other team
Speaker 4: in this because they don't have any other tournament success lately.
Speaker 4: But we will be heading back to Louisville if it
Speaker 4: gets to.
Speaker 3: That point, but the first two games again would be
Speaker 3: here in Lexington.
Speaker 4: Horriman is three. I don't have a three games. I
Speaker 4: mean everything that's been promoted and sold, it's still memorial.
Speaker 4: But there was a contest just for the regional frontal
Speaker 4: whenever you just like last year, it was in Rop
Speaker 4: for the whole first few rounds.
Speaker 3: Then they had the one game in Louisville and they
Speaker 3: base it on total ticket sales.
Speaker 4: I want to say it was a race to four
Speaker 4: thousand sold.
Speaker 3: And Louisville got it. Louisville one. A little disappointing. Billy
Speaker 3: A little bit.
Speaker 6: But that means Kentucky will have a win in Freedom
Speaker 6: Hall and then in the KFC Young Center in a
Speaker 6: span of what a couple months, As long as Drew
Speaker 6: doesn't get nucker punched on his way out, I think it.
Speaker 3: Should be that's the main thing.
Speaker 2: We can. We wrap Drew and bubble wrap so he
Speaker 2: doesn't get punched again.
Speaker 3: I don't kidding.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think it hurt you too much, though
Speaker 2: you kind of know sold them pretty well on that pot.
Speaker 4: I can take a punch. I don't think they should
Speaker 4: have been allowed. It's not just me getting hit. I
Speaker 4: mean those losers were the biggest losers to ever lose
Speaker 4: in that game. I mean, on Waku's spinning on Nate
Speaker 4: Sustina fans winding everywhere.
Speaker 3: I mean, they showed their true.
Speaker 4: Asses in a summer exhibition of guys were barely barely
Speaker 4: young enough to still play basketball. So I think they
Speaker 4: should have been banned. Of course, they sold more tickets
Speaker 4: because they suck at the actual game. That's why they're
Speaker 4: getting a host again. But I wish the tvt should
Speaker 4: have said, no, you showed your asses last year, and
Speaker 4: you're not allowed to host again. Reach it but I
Speaker 4: will go back and I will do the exact same
Speaker 4: thing I did last year. I will keep my l's
Speaker 4: down for two hours and they can bring it again.
Speaker 3: You know they It ended up being kind of a
Speaker 3: special win because you went, you beat Louisville on their
Speaker 3: home court, and.
Speaker 4: They were so excited. They were so excited that they
Speaker 4: were they talking so much, smack all the the you know,
Speaker 4: the crowd majority of Louisville fans.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's when you went on an opponent's home floor,
Speaker 3: it makes it a little special.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I had my run in with that weak
Speaker 4: minded human, but the spitting who spits?
Speaker 3: Who spits? Who spits?
Speaker 4: A grown man had a basketball game hawking a louis
Speaker 4: on his opponent. Because they can't handle losing. They should
Speaker 4: be good at losing, it's all they do. How have
Speaker 4: they not learned how to be gracious losers?
Speaker 5: Yet?
Speaker 3: Pope took the UK team with him all over there
Speaker 3: to watch and support the guys.
Speaker 4: Thank god they were up in a box. No telling
Speaker 4: what would have happened to them around all those losers,
Speaker 4: but they did win this contest. Congratulations on finally winning something.
Speaker 4: I can't wait to see you there next summer losers
Speaker 4: preach Drew. I'm wearing body armor.
Speaker 3: So it's it's it's set up. We're gonna happen again.
Speaker 3: Kentucky takes care of business here at Memorial again, wins
Speaker 3: those game. We're just gonna do it again. Beating Louisville
Speaker 3: is what we do the Louisville the lexing games are
Speaker 3: interrupt right.
Speaker 4: Memorial Okay, and I announced that twenty seconds ago Memorial Coliseum. Sorry,
Speaker 4: we got the Harrison Twins. They had the Harrison Twins,
Speaker 4: so we got Drown Liggins, Harrison Twins, Willie several more
Speaker 4: to come. I've heard a few rumors of who the why.
Speaker 4: I don't want to say it, just in case they
Speaker 4: have to bail. There's a lot of scheduling stuff, but
Speaker 4: I know who they've targeted and had conversations with. We're
Speaker 4: gonna be loaded again. But I'm glad the Twins are back.
Speaker 4: It was a lot of fun watching them be a
Speaker 4: part of it last year when they beat those losers
Speaker 4: in Freedom Hall.
Speaker 3: I hope Cstina's back too.
Speaker 4: I don't know if that's he should be the number
Speaker 4: one pick if we can get him. He took it
Speaker 4: so much more well they all took it seriously. I
Speaker 4: don't want to minish the other guys, but he got
Speaker 4: so into it and he played really well. You know,
Speaker 4: he was on the Kentucky team that got robbed and
Speaker 4: didn't have a tournament, so I think Nate was treating
Speaker 4: that like his NCAA tournament.
Speaker 3: He was the best player on the TBT team.
Speaker 4: And Innis's little brother must bring him, bring him back.
Speaker 4: He was the other star of the family. We got
Speaker 4: Liggins with that lockdown d We'll go beat these losers
Speaker 4: again in Freedom Hall.
Speaker 3: So even though the news is a little disappointing, it
Speaker 3: still can make it just as sweet when you go
Speaker 3: and win again this year. Yeah, it'll happen. It'll happen.
Speaker 3: Marker callenders eight two two eight seven. Let's go to
Speaker 3: the phone lines. We got Greg coming up next. Go ahead, Greg.
Speaker 8: Hey, guys, I thought i'd chip on on the JCLS.
Speaker 8: I've torn mine, My two daughters are torn theirs, and.
Speaker 5: There's not a coach that's ever going to play a
Speaker 5: player before.
Speaker 7: Six months is up.
Speaker 8: I mean, after two months you can jump around, walk
Speaker 8: and run, but you put Derek Anderson. Anderson in there
Speaker 8: at game speed, and he was going to ruin his
Speaker 8: knee and if he could have played, if he was recovered,
Speaker 8: Patina would have played him. But it's a six month
Speaker 8: deal and somebody can prove me wrong. But I don't
Speaker 8: think any players come out come back before six months.
Speaker 3: Was out all I appreciate great thanks for the phone call. Yeah,
Speaker 3: that's that. That kind of adds to the mystery of
Speaker 3: that Derek Anderson incident. I mean they were the best
Speaker 3: team and then with him they almost want it without him,
Speaker 3: So with him, you got to think they would have
Speaker 3: beat Arizona and Miles Simon and Mike Bibbie in that group.
Speaker 4: That is that the most famous UK injury that's cost him.
Speaker 4: I know there's been some some big ones, but is
Speaker 4: that that probably adds a title, a banner to the rafters.
Speaker 3: His injury doesn't happen because it happened in January. You know,
Speaker 3: when they were making their big run. Was it three
Speaker 3: when Keith Bogan's got hurt three? Yeah, right before that
Speaker 3: springed ankle he got in the Elite eight in the
Speaker 3: Sweet sixteen against Wisconsin. He tried to play against Marquette
Speaker 3: in the Elite eight.
Speaker 4: I still think we have a banner of Alex Poythers
Speaker 4: didn't hurt because Wisconsin doesn't, doesn't or we have someone
Speaker 4: to guard uh Sam Decker in that bunch. This is
Speaker 4: not a fun exercise.
Speaker 3: No, I mean the Newlands and Noel injury forwarded that season.
Speaker 3: But it wasn't the championship run or anything they were
Speaker 3: making at the time. They go to the tournament that year.
Speaker 3: Not in the n I T losing to Robert Morris,
Speaker 3: was it.
Speaker 6: PJ Washington had a thumb injury, played through it and
Speaker 6: missed all those free throws.
Speaker 4: Yes, PJ in the boot, that's what was at his
Speaker 4: most I haven't seen him, haven't seen him. We were
Speaker 4: getting I haven't seen him daily.
Speaker 3: Uh. But the PJ the hits a couple those free throws.
Speaker 3: They may went beat Kansas State and ed up in
Speaker 3: the final four. That's another final four. They could have
Speaker 3: had half of last year's roster, half of last year's roster.
Speaker 3: That's also Kurk Crisa absolutely, Jackson Robinson, what if he
Speaker 3: stays healthy the whole year. Last year you have Andrew
Speaker 3: Carr for that big stretch to change things. That's a
Speaker 3: fun game. Last year was probably the most injury prone
Speaker 3: where it happened to more than one guy. You know,
Speaker 3: you had it had three or four guys go go down.
Speaker 3: Major players go down. It hurts when you got one guy.
Speaker 3: But that team last year, man, they lost so many
Speaker 3: key pieces.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean losing Robinson. You don't have him to tournament.
Speaker 4: That's one of the biggest. There's been other individual injuries,
Speaker 4: but I can't think of a team that just had
Speaker 4: as many across the board.
Speaker 3: Eight five, nine, two, two two eight ten. We got
Speaker 3: Paul up next, Go ahead.
Speaker 7: Paul, Yeah, on the ACL tear. If they had him
Speaker 7: doing hyperbaric oxygen treatments before and after surgery, he could
Speaker 7: very well be up on it and playing. It would
Speaker 7: increase the healing by probably four times.
Speaker 3: All right, did they have that kind of procedure in
Speaker 3: nineteen ninety seven, Yes, Okay, well maybe that's what they did.
Speaker 7: It's just a Yeah, it's a chamber that you go
Speaker 7: in one hundred percent oxygen that's compressed and it takes
Speaker 7: your body's natural healing ability times a thousand. But to
Speaker 7: get there, you'd have to do you know, twenty to
Speaker 7: forty treatments, two hour treatments, and you do them consecutively.
Speaker 3: All right, Greg a phone call. Appreciate that. I mean,
Speaker 3: they're the advances in medicine now, I'm sure has helped
Speaker 3: Jaden Quainton's get ready. Is his terror as bad as
Speaker 3: Derrick Cannerson's tear? I have no idea.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I love that he's shooting for mid
Speaker 4: September for full contact, but I'm gonna I'm not gonna
Speaker 4: write that down in sharply that he will be a
Speaker 4: part of the team to start the year. That would
Speaker 4: be pretty impressive.
Speaker 3: He sees to believe it, Billy. He's been telling every
Speaker 3: that's the right attitude to have. It's right.
Speaker 6: Yeah, And I'm sure that helps in the recovery process
Speaker 6: as well. If you have an optimistic mindset, then you're
Speaker 6: gonna do everything with one hundred and ten percent effort. Ryan,
Speaker 6: I'm surprised you were such an athlete. You didn't tear
Speaker 6: anything sliding into a base or never major injuries like that.
Speaker 3: Well, it was a fine tuned athlete, you know. I was,
Speaker 3: you know, the elite of the elite that don't get
Speaker 3: hurt like that. I did break my finger, like during
Speaker 3: my senior year of fall baseball. I'd missed the whole
Speaker 3: fall season because I broke a bone in my throwing
Speaker 3: hand and my coach made me run cross country. Are
Speaker 3: you on the cross country team? I was a Kentucky
Speaker 3: Wesleyan baseball player and cross country run.
Speaker 4: Wait a minute, We've always known about these records you
Speaker 4: have in baseball, but I didn't know you were a
Speaker 4: two sports star.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 3: My baseball coach who just turned eighty years old, we
Speaker 3: just went to see him Sunday. God bless him, Dinny Pots.
Speaker 3: He was also the cross country coach for a couple
Speaker 3: of years. If you got hurt during baseball season, guess
Speaker 3: where your butt into day running on the cross country team.
Speaker 3: Stay in shape, Solthough, like the handful of us running
Speaker 3: cross country.
Speaker 4: For one year, it sound like you didn't have a
Speaker 4: choice needed to keep you all condition, otherwise you would
Speaker 4: have been at brasses every night or whatever you wrote too.
Speaker 3: I think I ran in three meets and finished last
Speaker 3: or next to last, and all three of them so
Speaker 3: simply choke. Yeah, I was simply joking. You're so funny. Alright,
Speaker 3: two A tip over right back, Ryan Drew, Shannon Billy.
Speaker 3: This is connect Sports Radio. Welcome back, can Tekan Sports Radio.
Speaker 3: This nickelback it is.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is back on the first album when they
Speaker 2: were really popular.
Speaker 3: Well, there's a documentary on Netflix we talked about during
Speaker 3: the break about Nickelback. I think it came out maybe
Speaker 3: a year or so ago, and I just saw it
Speaker 3: just while you guys were off in Arizona. It's really
Speaker 3: really good because it talks about how they were so
Speaker 3: popular then people started hating them, and it talks about
Speaker 3: how it affected those guys. You know, they were they
Speaker 3: were as popular as anybody, and all of a sudden
Speaker 3: it became a real hot trendy thing to not like Nickelback.
Speaker 2: Well that's because they were writing songs like this that
Speaker 2: were actually good to songs like this, and that's when
Speaker 2: they started to get hated when they put out rock
Speaker 2: Star and they put out Photograph.
Speaker 3: But I mean, that's still a good Sorry, that's what
Speaker 3: I like.
Speaker 2: Let's see, when you're Nickelback and you appealed to the
Speaker 2: Rascal Flat fans. I think that's why they got hated
Speaker 2: on Ryan is right here.
Speaker 3: He can hear you. Rascal Flats, that's your other band. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: I kind of falling off the Rascal Flats bandwagon because
Speaker 3: they called it quits. But I've always liked Nickelback. I
Speaker 3: never understood why they all that Nickelback eight that was
Speaker 3: going on for soul.
Speaker 2: You're saying that's a good documentary. I should go watch
Speaker 2: on Netflix.
Speaker 3: It's really good because they really get personal with the guys,
Speaker 3: how it affected them and their families. Their kids would
Speaker 3: go to school and other kids would make fun of
Speaker 3: their dads and Nickelback and stuff.
Speaker 6: You know.
Speaker 3: Yeah, really, it's really good.
Speaker 2: So it all started with Creed. Creed was really popular.
Speaker 2: They got this treatment first. Then it kind of spread
Speaker 2: over to Nickelback after that. But now Creed's cool again.
Speaker 2: Creed's cool with the TikTok crowd, the younger crowd, and
Speaker 2: I I think Nickelback's cool again, aren't they. Well yeah,
Speaker 2: I'll put it like this. We started playing Creed again
Speaker 2: on QMF and we didn't plan for years. But now
Speaker 2: we're back to playing Creed, but we're not playing Nickelback.
Speaker 2: So I don't know if that changed.
Speaker 6: It.
Speaker 2: Don't know if that says anything about either their popularity
Speaker 2: or our programming.
Speaker 3: You know, Nickelback, don't you be of course?
Speaker 6: And I don't know if it's people that just want
Speaker 6: free stuff. But when Shannon and I gave away Creed tickets,
Speaker 6: I mean, you would have thought we were given away
Speaker 6: free money.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Beatles tickets or something that people, Yeah, knocking down
Speaker 2: people trying to get through the lines.
Speaker 4: Well, I was hoping to go see Creed this summer,
Speaker 4: but now the Three Doors Down, who was not their opener.
Speaker 4: I know if they're co headlining or before Creed, but
Speaker 4: he announced yesterday of cancer diagnosis and Three Doors Downs
Speaker 4: done touring, and I'm sure that will affect the the
Speaker 4: Creed concert up.
Speaker 3: Bad news for what's his name.
Speaker 2: Shannon brad Arnold on the nicest guys you get ever,
Speaker 2: but I've had a chance to interview him a couple
Speaker 2: of times. Really good guy, and really it's sad to
Speaker 2: see that come out stage stage four kidney cancer and
Speaker 2: they've shut down the hoteur well for Three Doors Down.
Speaker 2: I don't know if that see. I just assumed that
Speaker 2: they were going to cancel the entire tour with Creed,
Speaker 2: which meant Creed wasn't going to play Rupperina. But I
Speaker 2: haven't heard officially if they're going to cancel Creed's part
Speaker 2: of it and maybe pick up another opening band, I'm
Speaker 2: not sure.
Speaker 4: There's like five or six bands I've read. Some have
Speaker 4: already been canceled, but there might they're hopeful maybe slide
Speaker 4: something in for three Doors Down as replacement.
Speaker 3: I'm not sure, but it just awesome news. Brad Arnold,
Speaker 3: there you go. Alice Blue Gown can open up for him.
Speaker 2: Ah, yeah, we play for sure. Yeah, we're gonna be
Speaker 2: playing the Virginia. We just announced that KSR is going
Speaker 2: to be coming to Summerset June the sixth at the Virginia,
Speaker 2: which is this really nice old theater, and we're gonna
Speaker 2: be playing there with the band that night.
Speaker 3: That's cool.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I'll be hanging out for the entire day
Speaker 2: and night morning and uh and no, not a Winesboro,
Speaker 2: that's Summerset. Yeah, Summerset, Summerset on June sixth.
Speaker 3: Well, you played your new song earlier and when I
Speaker 3: didn't catch it, can you play it again? Next hour?
Speaker 2: Being to play it to set up this conversation we're
Speaker 2: having now, and you completely ignored it.
Speaker 3: So no, no, I have adhd I forgot that one.
Speaker 3: Speak of speaking of concerts, are real birds coming up
Speaker 3: in Lexington into this month right May thirty, first June first, oh,
Speaker 3: you're asking and you're telling, right, we have the parking

Speaker 3: we had Griff. We had the OVW wrestlers out there
Speaker 3: that one year.
Speaker 4: It's right, no offense of them. I thought Griff was
Speaker 4: a little more organized. His guy's shirt organized. Guys had
Speaker 4: shirts on, but that I had their security name on it.
Speaker 4: Both were great though well.
Speaker 2: Had spectacular and immaculate Joe Mack slapping people's cars because
Speaker 2: they weren't going the right way. But yeah, that is

Speaker 4: It's very convenient, So.
Speaker 3: Go to the Chaos Bar social media accounts. There's a
Speaker 3: link there you can sign up by your pass. Before
Speaker 3: we take our top of the hour break, I do
Speaker 3: want to bring up there's a there's been a movement
Speaker 3: in Kentucky where they're trying to get a one year
Speaker 3: free transfer rule for high school athletes where you could
Speaker 3: transfer from one school to another free, not have to
Speaker 3: sit out a year. What's gonna be. It looks like
Speaker 3: KHSA and the people are gonna shoot it down. They're
Speaker 3: gonna stay kind of maintained with the rule they got. Now,
Speaker 3: if you transfer to school, you will be investigated if
Speaker 3: you can show proof of residents that you actually physically moved,
Speaker 3: or if your parents split up and you moved, or
Speaker 3: you know, there's some things you can do. But there
Speaker 3: was a movement guys to try to get a one
Speaker 3: year free transfer rule. Transfer anywhere you want for free
Speaker 3: and not be investigated or losing you have to sit
Speaker 3: out a year.
Speaker 4: You as the high school sports guy and the traditionalist.
Speaker 4: I'm sure you're glad they're not letting them move around.
Speaker 3: I am glad about that. I mean, I understand the
Speaker 3: world we live in and people are transferring, But if
Speaker 3: the family physically moves to that school district, I don't
Speaker 3: know what you can do. And it's happening all the time.
Speaker 3: Maybe for football and basketball, you know, I think you
Speaker 3: could transfer in tennis, golf, some of the minor sports
Speaker 3: and not ever get investigated. But you do it in
Speaker 3: football or basketball, you will get investigated by the KHSAA.
Speaker 3: You have to prove proof of residency in that school district.
Speaker 4: Was it Zion Harmon That seemed like he was at
Speaker 4: a different high school every other month.
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's been some kids around here who've played for
Speaker 3: four different schools in five years or four years. So
Speaker 3: what do you think about it? I agree with you
Speaker 3: that I'm glad they're doing it well.
Speaker 6: It's no secret that private schools have an advantage over
Speaker 6: public schools because they recruit to their sports, right, right,
Speaker 6: do they still have to set out if a kid
Speaker 6: goes to a private school.
Speaker 3: I don't think so. Okay, I think you go to
Speaker 3: a private school, you don't have to have that sit
Speaker 3: out rule. I don't think that's the case.
Speaker 6: Well, that doesn't seem fair for the public schools. So
Speaker 6: this would be a way to even the playing field
Speaker 6: a little bit. But are we incentivizing you just going
Speaker 6: to the school that gives you the best chance to
Speaker 6: win a championship? Do we need to be incentivizing that
Speaker 6: in high school?
Speaker 3: You know, because they're you know, Saint X and Trinity
Speaker 3: in Louisville, they get kids from Indiana. They recruit like,
Speaker 3: let's not act like they don't.
Speaker 6: So it's like, do you want the public schools to
Speaker 6: be able to get kids for maybe with the transfers
Speaker 6: without sitting out a year. It seems like it's plausible,
Speaker 6: but there's a lot of tradition that they'll have to
Speaker 6: get over. There's a lot of movement for it because
Speaker 6: the colleges now have it with a transfer portal, Right,
Speaker 6: you can go from school to school.
Speaker 3: And not have to sit out. Trying to try to
Speaker 3: translate that in Downe the high school though, but it
Speaker 3: looks like the KHSAA is saying least right now, ain't happening.
Speaker 3: Ain't happening right now. Maybe in the future, But ain't
Speaker 3: happening right now? All right? That I'll do it for
Speaker 3: our number one. We'll be back our number two eight
Speaker 3: five nine two eight h two two eight seven. We
Speaker 3: got a draft coming up, another ASR draft. This one's
Speaker 3: a little off the walls. We'll take your calls as well.
