That just shows the importance 99 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 6: of this game in the conference. Maybe they do it 100 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:33,280 Speaker 6: for all of them, but I know there's a lot 101 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 6: of Arkansas fans making the trip for the face of 102 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 6: this in the league. 103 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I think this is If Arkansas wins 104 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,039 Speaker 3: this series, they probably win the league. And if we 105 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 3: win the series, we have a shot at winning the league. 106 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:47,559 Speaker 3: I mean, I think if we want to win the league, 107 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:49,720 Speaker 3: we got we gotta win this series. So there's a 108 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 3: lot a lot going on out there at the stadium. 109 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 3: Probably one of the biggest I'd say probably one of 110 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:58,360 Speaker 3: the biggest regular season baseball series Kentucky's ever hosted. 111 00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, and weren't coming off just two weeks go, which 112 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 5: was then probably the biggest baseball series there. When Tennessee 113 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 5: came in, they had over seven thousand for each game. 114 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:10,039 Speaker 5: Expect that maybe even more this weekend, Tonight, Tomorrow, and Sunday. 115 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 6: Both teams have five losses. So somebody's gonna be in 116 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,039 Speaker 6: first when this is over. That's exactly right. 117 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 3: So all right, so it's graduation, which led me to 118 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:23,280 Speaker 3: think about, you know, like my graduation, and I thought 119 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,280 Speaker 3: it might be a good time to say, what do 120 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 3: you remember from your graduation?

I don't want this 183 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 4: to be a thing that would I mean, I think 184 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 4: it's a little weird. I was ready to go. 185 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 6: Uh, the stories of sitting there all day and hearing 186 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 6: names called I just business. 187 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 4: I didn't even order the gown. 188 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 3: Well, two guys in my class skipped graduation. Their names 189 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 3: were Todd and Abe because the new Dukes of Hazard 190 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 3: video game had debuted the day before, and they stayed 191 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,199 Speaker 3: up all night played that and skipped graduation. 192 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 4: And I thought that was strange. 193 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 6: I didn't like wake up and skip that morning. I 194 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:48,840 Speaker 6: knew pretty early on I would didn't want to go. Okay, 195 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 6: so I know that a lot of people think that's 196 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:52,679 Speaker 6: a bad look. I don't really regret it to thee. 197 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what I was gonna say. In hindsight. Do 198 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 4: you wish you would walk the stage or anything? I 199 00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:58,319 Speaker 4: don't know. I mean, maybe you'd be a cool picture. 200 00:08:58,400 --> 00:08:59,720 Speaker 4: I don't know. I don't know where it might be. 201 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 3: Pick Well, Mario asked me last night if I had 202 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 3: a picture from my graduation, then I don't think I do. 203 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 4: I'm sure my parents do, but I don't think that 204 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 4: I do. 205 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 5: Nancy or Duke either one You got a picture? 206 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, I forgot about Duke. 207 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think I have any of them, at 208 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 3: least like on my phone. 209 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:20,760 Speaker 4: I'm sure they exist somewhere. 210 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:22,120 Speaker 6: Or saying in what about you, I was gonna give 211 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 6: you my high school and it's even better if you 212 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:25,719 Speaker 6: want it, Okay, go for it. So it turns out 213 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 6: when you skip school, you have to make up hours 214 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:31,440 Speaker 6: to graduate, and it was mathematically impossible for me to 215 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 6: make up the hours that i'd skipped, So I had 216 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 6: to be a janitor with the other janitors, and I 217 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 6: cleaned every locker in Madisonville North Hoppins High School the 218 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 6: day before graduation, swept the floors, set out the chairs 219 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 6: for graduation, just so I could walk the stage. 220 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 3: They made you clean the school in order to graduate. 221 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 6: Well, there was a policy like you'd stay after and 222 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 6: you know, do some tutoring or do something. But it 223 00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 6: got to the point where I was a little behind, 224 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 6: and I just did like eight hour shifts at the 225 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 6: school and then got to graduate. 226 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 3: You gotta be the first person I've ever heard that 227 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,440 Speaker 3: had to be a pictures of me with the broom. 228 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:07,319 Speaker 6: Cleaning out the lockers was not fun, But uh, go 229 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 6: to school, kids go to class, all right, fair enough, sha, 230 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:10,840 Speaker 6: what about you? 231 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 2: My high school graduation was long boring. I couldn't wait 232 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:15,439 Speaker 2: for them to call my name so I could just 233 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 2: go up there and get that diploma and get out 234 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,200 Speaker 2: of there. And I do remember though, afterwards there was 235 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:23,440 Speaker 2: something that I think it's called project gradation. 236 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 3: They lock you into school and play fake casino games 237 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 3: and stuff so you won't drink. 238 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:31,920 Speaker 2: I don't know you had that too, Yeah, yeah I did. 239 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 2: I don't know why I did that. I guess I 240 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 2: had no other better alternative. But that's that's about all 241 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:38,079 Speaker 2: I remember from it. 242 00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 3: I'm, by the way, throwing a project graduation from my 243 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:41,199 Speaker 3: mom on. 244 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 4: Next weekend, are you Yeah, I'm worried. 245 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 3: Mom and Larry are gonna go party all night after 246 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 3: she graduates from seminary.

I mean, he might seem, but I also 286 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:37,440 Speaker 3: remember he still lives there, so I do think that's 287 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,480 Speaker 3: that's part of it. And I guess Colin Chandler was 288 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 3: flying home from his mission met him in the airport again. 289 00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:46,960 Speaker 3: First time a coach has ever met a Mormon missionary 290 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 3: at the airport.

Now he's the main draft does he reported that, 300 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:20,079 Speaker 3: I guess not last night, but two nights ago. They 301 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 3: became a little worried that a Mary Williams might decommit 302 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 3: from Drexel and go somewhere else, And he got on 303 00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:30,440 Speaker 3: a plane and flew to him in Philadelphia and made 304 00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:32,680 Speaker 3: sure and got him to commit to stay. 305 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:34,840 Speaker 4: So not only has he been. 306 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 3: Here doing all that, he actually did a late night 307 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:39,280 Speaker 3: trip to Philly to lockdown on Mary Williams. 308 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:41,679 Speaker 6: H When do we get a photo of Pope sleeping? 309 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 6: I think I'm ready to just know that my man 310 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:43,880 Speaker 6: is getting at. 311 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:45,360 Speaker 4: Least I think he's doing that this weekend.

If 344 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 3: I'm nine two eight oh twenty two eighty seven, Before 345 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 3: we go to the phones, a couple more interesting things. 346 00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 3: Jack Pilgrim Report yesterday that when the assistant coach Cody Feger, 347 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 3: for those of you that don't see, he puts on 348 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:09,320 Speaker 3: Twitter a boom every time there's gonna be a commitment, 349 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 3: which is kind of a cool little thing. Jack Pilgrim 350 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 3: reported that what he does is he lets the recruit 351 00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:21,440 Speaker 3: that they're getting pick which boom he's gonna use, so 352 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 3: that when you see the boom, it is a gift 353 00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 3: of something that they picked. So you actually would learn 354 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 3: something in theory about their personality based on which one 355 00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 3: they do. So now in the future, when we have one, 356 00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 3: people will have more of a chance to guess based 357 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:46,240 Speaker 3: on what do you think this guy would have picked? 358 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 4: Drew Do you like it? I love it? 359 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 6: And I went back and watched the ones we already 360 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 6: have and you know, paired him up with players. Kerk 361 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:55,440 Speaker 6: cries of the one's personality. Did Danny DeVito in a 362 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 6: dog sweater with an explosion behind him? I think that 363 00:15:57,760 --> 00:15:58,560 Speaker 6: has to be the winner. 364 00:15:58,640 --> 00:15:59,800 Speaker 4: That has to be the winner, I think. 365 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 6: And then Brandon Garrison did Kenny Powers that I liked, 366 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 6: But now that we know what they are, isn't he 367 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:05,400 Speaker 6: putting it with the player? 368 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 3: I do think that's neat and maybe that becomes a thing, 369 00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 3: like the kid looks forward to the one he's gonna pick. 370 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 4: I like that. 371 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 3: I mean I think this group, for uh, this group 372 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 3: is much more connected to something resembling modernity, right, Like, 373 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:25,320 Speaker 3: I mean it's not you know, I think it's a 374 00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 3: little different from before when when really none of them. 375 00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:31,280 Speaker 4: Were on social media of any significance. 376 00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 3: I mean they had accounts, but like you know, Cow's accounts, 377 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 3: somebody else ran it. The assistance I'm not sure did 378 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 3: the assistants ever really do anything that. 379 00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:40,560 Speaker 4: You can remember. 380 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 6: We just found out Chin had a Twitter account.

I mean, 453 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 5: they've really got a lot of things going for it. 454 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:22,160 Speaker 3: So if I visit, if I see any job openings, 455 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 3: I'll holler at you. 456 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:24,480 Speaker 5: Yeah, just give me a holler you if you can 457 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:26,879 Speaker 5: apply it, no problem.

We talked yesterday. 462 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:39,400 Speaker 3: We all picked third in the SEC Shannon picked fourth. 463 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,159 Speaker 3: Let me put it in a different way. Do you 464 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:48,160 Speaker 3: feel like if that's the team, is that a team 465 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 3: Kentucky fans through the course of the year Drew. 466 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:52,480 Speaker 4: Will be happy with. I think so. 467 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:55,600 Speaker 6: I expected a pretty big dipth this year when we 468 00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:57,960 Speaker 6: had just gotten Pope and we're all in rep celebrating, 469 00:20:58,000 --> 00:20:59,719 Speaker 6: We're excited, But I still thought it was a lot 470 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:02,040 Speaker 6: to ask of him in his first year on short notice. 471 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 6: But my floor is a lot higher than it was. 472 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 6: I think they should be a good team, and I 473 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:07,960 Speaker 6: mean I think they should be a tournament team. I 474 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,159 Speaker 6: think they should compete in the SEC regular season. This 475 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:11,920 Speaker 6: is assuming they had, you know, the one or two 476 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 6: pieces he still wants to add. But I love what 477 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:15,760 Speaker 6: he has so far, and if he can just lock 478 00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:17,639 Speaker 6: down a couple more that are on his radar, this 479 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:20,360 Speaker 6: should be a team that's in the hunt in the conference, 480 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:22,399 Speaker 6: and I mean should be in the tournament. 481 00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:23,680 Speaker 4: We should expect to win some games. 482 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 6: This isn't I don't think the dip that I've thought 483 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:27,359 Speaker 6: it would be a couple of weeks ago exists anymore. 484 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 4: I think we're gonna be all right. 485 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:30,679 Speaker 5: We all agree that they until need to get that 486 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 5: a dude. They need to get a dude. And if 487 00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:35,359 Speaker 5: Jackson Robinson can be that dude, that guy. They've got 488 00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 5: all the other pieces. They've got a point guard, they've 489 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:40,040 Speaker 5: got lockdown defenders, they've got big butt post players. I mean, 490 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 5: they've got that everything you want to put together on 491 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 5: a good team. They just need to get a dude. 492 00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:46,080 Speaker 4: I had a guy right me yesterday. 493 00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 3: He was very upset saying like, that's not a team 494 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:54,320 Speaker 3: that can win a national championship. And I probably would 495 00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 3: agree with that, but I don't really know what people expected. 496 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,760 Speaker 3: I mean, I guess I have thought my entire life, 497 00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:04,960 Speaker 3: or at least since Cal's been here. To day cal leaves, 498 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 3: it's a complete restart, right Like it's because again it's 499 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:12,400 Speaker 3: a devil's bargain. With Cal, You're gonna get really good 500 00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:14,439 Speaker 3: players and be good, but the moment he leaves, you 501 00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:15,320 Speaker 3: have to start over. 502 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:16,360 Speaker 4: That's what I mean. 503 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 3: Just think about how bad Memphis and UMass were after 504 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:22,480 Speaker 3: he left. They just completely fell apart as a program, 505 00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:25,640 Speaker 3: and so I've always assumed we were gonna fall apart. 506 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:29,680 Speaker 3: So I never thought you could win a title. I 507 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 3: would go so far as to say this team's gonna 508 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,399 Speaker 3: be a lot better than what I would have thought 509 00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:37,000 Speaker 3: could be after Cal for fifteen years. 510 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:38,680 Speaker 4: Now.

You 535 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:47,280 Speaker 3: know that that strategy I use been pretty successful, something 536 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:50,159 Speaker 3: like seven the last ten years or something, which is 537 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 3: a pretty good run of hitting trifectas. 538 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 4: Hopefully we can get it done again today. 539 00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:56,679 Speaker 5: Right, So are you going, No, you're not gonna go. 540 00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 5: It's this first time you've not been in a long time. 541 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 4: Then I have. I haven't been since covid. 542 00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:03,480 Speaker 5: Okay O not Oaks either. 543 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:07,680 Speaker 3: No, No, I'm not trying to downplay it, but even 544 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:13,600 Speaker 3: in the last twelve years, it's become significantly worse of 545 00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:17,439 Speaker 3: an in person thing to me, at least, I'm not 546 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:20,320 Speaker 3: saying it's not, but it even in the last ten 547 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:24,679 Speaker 3: I mean, like, for instance, everybody is praising that area 548 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:28,080 Speaker 3: around the paddock, but that used to be the one 549 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 3: place that the average person could go, and now they've 550 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 3: basically taken that away too. So I mean, it's, to 551 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:37,680 Speaker 3: be quite frank with you, Derby is really not an 552 00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:42,119 Speaker 3: experience for Kentuckians anymore, right, Like, it's just it's like 553 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 3: going to Gatlinburg. The people out in Gatlinburg don't live 554 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 3: in Gatlinburg. The people at the Derby Now, unless you're 555 00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 3: in the infield, they're not people from Kentucky anymore, really, 556 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:56,080 Speaker 3: And so I just I don't I've really enjoyed it 557 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,560 Speaker 3: those first few years, but the last couple of years 558 00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:01,159 Speaker 3: I just felt like it's it's almost like going to 559 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:03,639 Speaker 3: a circus of a race rather than a race. 560 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 4: In the infield. They're pricing them out a little bit. 561 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,159 Speaker 6: Fills one hundred and thirty dollars crazy for that local 562 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:10,800 Speaker 6: crowd that has been going there. 563 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:13,200 Speaker 3: When I was in college, it was like ten, yeah, 564 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 3: twenty five.

But I just 567 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:24,520 Speaker 3: I don't think it's quite as enjoyable to me like 568 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 3: it used to be. 569 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:26,280 Speaker 4: I still love the. 570 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:29,080 Speaker 3: Pageantry and the event and and and betting on it, 571 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:31,479 Speaker 3: but in person, I just I don't know. 572 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 4: It's just it's not it's not quite the same.

I wanted 668 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 8: to ask you man, I'm really concerned about Kentucky's future 669 00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:47,000 Speaker 8: with n I L. Jeff Goodman says that it takes 670 00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:50,200 Speaker 8: about four million dollars to put a Final four team, 671 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:53,640 Speaker 8: I mean on the floor right now, so you would 672 00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:56,240 Speaker 8: figure in five years it's probably going to be about 673 00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 8: eight point five to nine million, or do you think 674 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 8: Kentucky in the next five ten years that they can 675 00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:05,280 Speaker 8: be great. 676 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 4: First of all, you got her a few things. 677 00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:10,840 Speaker 3: I think it's a great question for people here alive 678 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:12,840 Speaker 3: because they can't hear the callers he's asking to. I 679 00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 3: think Kentucky can can be competitive long term and in 680 00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:20,640 Speaker 3: ile and basketball. So the answer to that question is yes, 681 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:23,760 Speaker 3: but it will take some work. There's two steps. Step 682 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:26,520 Speaker 3: one is the system is going to change. I think 683 00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:30,160 Speaker 3: it's going to change pretty quickly. I don't want to 684 00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:32,680 Speaker 3: bore people with legal details, but you need to read. 685 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:36,960 Speaker 3: Ross Dellinger put out a story about the NCAA's attempt 686 00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:40,560 Speaker 3: to settle these lawsuits and what they're considering doing. And 687 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 3: what they're considering doing is basically taking seventeen to twenty 688 00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 3: two million dollars a year and basically revenue sharing that 689 00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:54,600 Speaker 3: with athletes in all the sports, basketball, football, everything, but 690 00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:56,640 Speaker 3: the majority of it will go to basketball and football 691 00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:58,240 Speaker 3: because they generate the most money. 692 00:30:59,120 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 4: The lawsuit. 693 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 3: So what that lawsuit would do is that lawsuit would 694 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 3: essentially settle all the claims right now, and the claims 695 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:12,160 Speaker 3: right now are on behalf of all the student athletes now, 696 00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:14,880 Speaker 3: so that would essentially give them a runway of a 697 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:17,920 Speaker 3: year or two to then deal with what's going to 698 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:19,960 Speaker 3: happen in the future. And then I think what they're 699 00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:21,960 Speaker 3: gonna do is they're gonna go to Congress. It has 700 00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 3: to be Congress, like that's the thing. As dysfunctional and 701 00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:28,440 Speaker 3: awful as our Congress is right now. Ultimately, they're the 702 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:31,479 Speaker 3: only people that can fix this because they can create 703 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 3: a law that says basically, the NCAAA is different and 704 00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 3: for reasons and again are complicated. I think they have 705 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,719 Speaker 3: to do that because our current legal structure what the 706 00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:46,720 Speaker 3: NCAA is just doesn't fit in it. So they're gonna 707 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 3: have to find a way to do that. Then when 708 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:52,680 Speaker 3: they do that, they can create collective bargaining, which they will. 709 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:56,800 Speaker 3: The NCAA can negotiate with representatives of athletes and all 710 00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:58,000 Speaker 3: of this will be fixed. 711 00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 4: Now. Your question, though, is for what if that doesn't happen. 712 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:06,920 Speaker 3: Right, If that doesn't happen, then I think in basketball, 713 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:10,760 Speaker 3: Kentucky is set up to compete pretty well in the 714 00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:15,880 Speaker 3: next two to four years, but long term they have 715 00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:20,120 Speaker 3: to get the fan base as a whole to buy in. 716 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:25,520 Speaker 3: So the difference between Kentucky and most Power SEC schools 717 00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 3: we have a lot of money with a set of 718 00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:35,680 Speaker 3: very few donors. But other schools have like fifteen people 719 00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:42,280 Speaker 3: like that and we have like five. Okay, we because 720 00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:44,240 Speaker 3: of that, we got to get it to where all 721 00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 3: of us buy in, and that's just gonna take a while. 722 00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 4: And there's been very few schools who've done it well. 723 00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:53,080 Speaker 3: To be honest with you, I think Tennessee football has 724 00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:54,479 Speaker 3: done a pretty good job with it. 725 00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:57,080 Speaker 4: I hear that, like maybe Old. 726 00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 3: Miss football has done a pretty good job with it, 727 00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:02,240 Speaker 3: but most schools have been pretty awful at getting their 728 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 3: general fan base to participate. We'll have to get better 729 00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 3: with that. Club Blue is a very good start for basketball. 730 00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:11,920 Speaker 3: I think they've done a good job here in the 731 00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 3: last few weeks. The law familiar thing for cal part 732 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:19,040 Speaker 3: of what was worrisome is it was a complete dud 733 00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:19,920 Speaker 3: when it launched. 734 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:21,280 Speaker 4: In one of these. 735 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:24,120 Speaker 3: Days when I'm feeling frisky, I'll talk about it because 736 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:27,080 Speaker 3: it's their own not the people that ran that. I 737 00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:30,320 Speaker 3: think did a good job. But again, not trying to 738 00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 3: be rude, I think cow screwed it up. 739 00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:33,600 Speaker 4: And so. 740 00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 3: They had a launch and they raised thirty seven thousand 741 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:41,320 Speaker 3: dollars and they were like Oh no, cause you only get. 742 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:43,280 Speaker 4: One chance to lotch the goal on the site. The 743 00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:45,040 Speaker 4: goal was a million, and they did thirty. 744 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:49,640 Speaker 3: Now I bet you Club Blue has already raised more 745 00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:54,200 Speaker 3: than Law Familia did in a week. But long term, 746 00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:57,440 Speaker 3: if we're going to compete in Ail, if Congress doesn't 747 00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 3: change the rules, I do think think we'll have to 748 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:04,040 Speaker 3: get more general fan buy in. Is that an answer 749 00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:04,640 Speaker 3: to your question. 750 00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:06,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's good. 751 00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:09,799 Speaker 8: I was just wondering, you know, like at these political events, 752 00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:13,200 Speaker 8: people signing people up to be rags voters. 753 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:15,839 Speaker 4: You're gonna see more of that. You're gonna see more 754 00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:16,200 Speaker 4: of that. 755 00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:21,239 Speaker 3: Yes, there's gonna be I think the previous and I 756 00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 3: appreciate the call. My complaint for a long time with 757 00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:28,920 Speaker 3: the old regime was they did part of why you 758 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:32,440 Speaker 3: need fan engagement, Ryan, is not just to get fans excited, 759 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:33,640 Speaker 3: it's to get them to buy it. 760 00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:36,560 Speaker 4: And part of what I used to say is bring 761 00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 4: one of your players. 762 00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:41,759 Speaker 3: Here for a signing and while there's five hundred people here, 763 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:44,520 Speaker 3: sign them up for the nile thing. You got them 764 00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 3: right here, right Now's the time to do it. And 765 00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:48,800 Speaker 3: they just didn't see. 766 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:49,160 Speaker 4: It like that. 767 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:54,319 Speaker 3: Mark Pope's group does see it like that, and I 768 00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:56,359 Speaker 3: think you will see a lot more of that kind 769 00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:57,279 Speaker 3: of stuff to. 770 00:34:57,680 --> 00:34:58,239 Speaker 4: Get the money. 771 00:34:58,280 --> 00:34:59,640 Speaker 6: Right now, they have the excitement pe were thrown in 772 00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:01,840 Speaker 6: because but over time the fans need something to and 773 00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:03,399 Speaker 6: you have to get very clever with it. We see 774 00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:06,080 Speaker 6: schools do cool stuff and I think right now what 775 00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:07,080 Speaker 6: Popez coming up? 776 00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:09,040 Speaker 4: What is a June fifteenth? That mean it will start? 777 00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 6: And then on the football end, the John legend cons 778 00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:13,440 Speaker 6: that's pretty pricey, but that's one thing. And if they 779 00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:16,560 Speaker 6: can continue event based things to show the fans that 780 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:18,440 Speaker 6: they also get something in return, I think it can 781 00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:20,080 Speaker 6: maintain over the long term. 782 00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 3: I mean, the reality is there's about five people that 783 00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:29,200 Speaker 3: have kept UK football nil a float and probably now 784 00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:32,920 Speaker 3: those people are gonna keep UK basketball an il a float. 785 00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:35,640 Speaker 3: But you can't do that forever, like that can't be 786 00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:40,040 Speaker 3: your business model forever. At some point you can't do that. 787 00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 3: If they just change their mind one day, you're a 788 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:42,719 Speaker 3: big chunk of money. 789 00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:42,919 Speaker 4: Miss. 790 00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:46,000 Speaker 3: I mean, we just as a practical matter, we can't 791 00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:49,320 Speaker 3: ask the Crafts to fund us forever, and we can't 792 00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:52,640 Speaker 3: ask some of the other names to do it forever. 793 00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:56,040 Speaker 3: And so that's why either the law needs to change, 794 00:35:56,520 --> 00:35:59,279 Speaker 3: or the way they raise money needs to change. We 795 00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:01,200 Speaker 3: will take a break and be right back. This is 796 00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:03,840 Speaker 3: Kentucky Sports Radio. 797 00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:05,200 Speaker 4: Working back. 798 00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:07,680 Speaker 3: It is Kentucky Sports Radio here at cams Bar and 799 00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:11,040 Speaker 3: grilm uh if I'm nine two twenty two eighty seven. 800 00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:14,120 Speaker 3: One person says, Matt, why doesn't the school just you 801 00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:18,160 Speaker 3: give money for nil rather than asking the fans? Well 802 00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:21,400 Speaker 3: as if today they're not allowed to. But again that's 803 00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:24,680 Speaker 3: probably gonna change sooner rather than later. They're probably gonna 804 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:28,279 Speaker 3: change the rules and rev share and then they can 805 00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:29,200 Speaker 3: set caps on. 806 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:30,840 Speaker 4: Innile and so that helps. 807 00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:32,839 Speaker 3: One things you're never gonna be able to do, though, 808 00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:36,560 Speaker 3: is stop people from doing ads with private things. But 809 00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:38,919 Speaker 3: they can make it to where these collectives there's caps. 810 00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:40,920 Speaker 3: There's a lot of things they can do. It's just 811 00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:42,640 Speaker 3: gonna take a little time. Now, we have two people 812 00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:45,120 Speaker 3: here whose birthday it is.

It 830 00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:31,040 Speaker 3: might not be this year.
