00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:01,160

00:00:06,480 --> 00:00:09,399
Speaker 2: us a call tonight as the Cats beat Jackson State

4
00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:13,680
Speaker 2: one oh eight to fifty nine, scoring fifty four points

5
00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:16,200
Speaker 2: in each half, give us call eight.

6
00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:18,480
Speaker 1: Five nine two eight zero two two eight seven.

7
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:21,720
Speaker 2: I've given my co host the night off, little load

8
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:24,840
Speaker 2: management day for Matthew Harper Jones. I am Billy Rutledge.

9
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:27,360
Speaker 2: You can follow me on Twitter at Billy r Sports.

10
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:30,520
Speaker 2: And if you're a listener regularly of the Local Toyota

11
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:34,320
Speaker 2: Dealers KSR postgame Show, you know all about what we're

12
00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:35,080
Speaker 2: about to do.

13
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:36,279
Speaker 1: So let's get into it.

14
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:37,040
Speaker 3: Now.

15
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:39,800
Speaker 2: Let's preface this for a second by saying this is

16
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 2: probably the worst team that Kentucky will play all year.

17
00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:45,520
Speaker 2: You know, no disrespect to Jackson State, but a little

18
00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:48,159
Speaker 2: disrespect to Jackson State. I mean, if you're looking at

19
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:51,320
Speaker 2: just the numbers, they were three twenty out of three

20
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:54,760
Speaker 2: sixty four in the Kempunk. When it comes to defensive

21
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:58,360
Speaker 2: field goal percentage, they were three sixty two at a

22
00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 2: three sixty four. So how do you evaluate this game

23
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:04,720
Speaker 2: when you're taking on one of the worst teams in

24
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:08,160
Speaker 2: Division One? Well, you know what you hope that the

25
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:12,120
Speaker 2: team can stay focused versus an inferior opponent. You hope

26
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 2: that they can battle through some adversity and build on

27
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 2: this for the next game. And I think they did

28
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:22,480
Speaker 2: exactly that. How fun was that to watch the offense

29
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:26,200
Speaker 2: score again over one hundred points one hundred and eight

30
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:28,840
Speaker 2: in this one. Listen to the stat for a second.

31
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 1: Four hundred and eight.

32
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,959
Speaker 2: Points have been scored in the four home games that

33
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 2: Kentucky has played so far, four hundred.

34
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:37,440
Speaker 1: And eight points? Are you kidding me?

35
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 2: I knew modern basketball was coming to Lexington when Mark

36
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 2: Pope signed on, but did I expect one hundred points

37
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 2: per game to start the year? I did not, especially

38
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 2: didn't expect that win over Duke in the Champions Classic.

39
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 2: But this team defies expectations and it was a big

40
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,680
Speaker 2: win tonight to take the Cats to five and zero

41
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 2: eight five, nine to eight to eight seven. You'll have

42
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 2: to bear with me for a little bit because I

43
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 2: am hosting and producing the show. We did bring a

44
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 2: part timer in to answer some of the calls, So

45
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:12,919
Speaker 2: Gavin is in the other room. He will be taking

46
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 2: your call and putting you on hold. Eight five nine

47
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:16,480
Speaker 2: two eight h two to two eight seven. I just

48
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,119
Speaker 2: opened up the phone lines. Give us a call. Tell

49
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 2: me what you thought about the game. Not only was

50
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:23,919
Speaker 2: it four hundred and eight points and four home games,

51
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 2: how about twenty nine assists on forty one made baskets.

52
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 2: These guys liked to share the ball. They shot fifty

53
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,800
Speaker 2: eight percent from the floor, forty four percent from three,

54
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 2: and a season high seventeen threes for the Cats. Jackson

55
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 2: Robinson got it started.

56
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 1: He got a.

57
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:44,120
Speaker 2: Little bit colder as the game went on, but you

58
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 2: saw who picked it up there.

59
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 1: Kobe Brea. Man? Is that guy?

60
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:52,560
Speaker 2: A bucket Tyler Hero reincarnated. Kobe Brea may shatter all

61
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,799
Speaker 2: of the records when it comes to shooting percentage at Kentucky,

62
00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 2: but he got hot late and that allowed the Cats

63
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 2: to cruise to their big victory against Jackson State.

64
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:06,240
Speaker 1: It was the fourth installment of the Unity series, and

65
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 1: you know what I thought.

66
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 2: We got a pretty good preview of the game from

67
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:11,920
Speaker 2: myself and Ryan Lemon on KSR this morning.

68
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 1: I don't know if you heard it, but.

69
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,799
Speaker 2: Matt wanted to test our knowledge, kind of like how

70
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 2: Mark Pope does with his players. He'll give you a number,

71
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 2: and you got to give him a scouting report and

72
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,080
Speaker 2: credit to Ryan, he not only gave us some intangibles,

73
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 2: he was giving us the names of these guys.

74
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:28,360
Speaker 1: But we've got to figure.

75
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 2: Out the name of number fourteen on Jackson State. I mean,

76
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 2: this guy throwing his shoe at Brandon Garrison may have

77
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 2: been the highlight of the game for me. I mean,

78
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 2: what are we talking about throwing shoes in a Division

79
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 2: one basketball game. I think I may have seen that

80
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 2: once before in my life, and that was at like,

81
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 2: you know, me at eight years old playing at the YMCA,

82
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 2: the Walter Fuller after school camp, a little frustrated that

83
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 2: I can't get the ball, I'm throwing my shoe at him.

84
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 2: But not in a Division one basketball game.

85
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 1: That was great.

86
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 2: There was also a point where they had to fix

87
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 2: a wire at the bottom of the backboard. It looked

88
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 2: like Andrew Carr and Brandon Garrison were stepping up on the.

89
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 1: Step ladder to fix whatever that was.

90
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 2: There was a couple of weird moments in this game,

91
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:17,919
Speaker 2: but for the most part, it was a route the

92
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 2: Cats putting up another big performance offensively and defensively. I

93
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:25,840
Speaker 2: thought they did a good job on the defensive side

94
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 2: of the ball. Jackson State only scoring fifty nine points,

95
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:32,320
Speaker 2: holding Jackson State to only thirty three percent shooting.

96
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:32,599
Speaker 1: From the field.

97
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,160
Speaker 2: But you know what, we got number fourteen back later

98
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 2: in the game after he threw his shoe because he

99
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 2: missed the two free throws to give everybody at rapp

100
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 2: Arena free Chick fil A sandwiches.

101
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:46,159
Speaker 1: I mean, come on, what more could you want from that?

102
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 2: But the Cats get a big win eight five nine

103
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 2: two eight zero two two eight seven. If you'd like

104
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 2: to call in and give your take. You know there's

105
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 2: a big game versus Texas coming up tomorrow, that game

106
00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:00,600
Speaker 2: at three point thirty twelve thirty pre game start for TWSR.

107
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 2: Do the Cats have a shot in that one? We

108
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:05,679
Speaker 2: can talk about it tonight. We could talk about anything

109
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 2: you'd like. Remember the magic number though, you know, Matt

110
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:11,839
Speaker 2: in the past has said the rule of seventy one

111
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:13,839
Speaker 2: is the thing that we need to look for. I

112
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,560
Speaker 2: think we need to change that to holding the other

113
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:20,599
Speaker 2: team below thirty nine percent shooting percentage. And just like

114
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:26,160
Speaker 2: I said, Jackson State thirty three percent, they did exactly that.

115
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 1: I mean, it was a great performance. I think he had.

116
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,400
Speaker 2: Five guys in double figures in this game, Kobe Braya

117
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:35,120
Speaker 2: leading all with twenty two otega oh way. I mean,

118
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:38,040
Speaker 2: this guy, we've said he's the surprise of the season,

119
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 2: but he was everywhere. That guy really making the most

120
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 2: of his situation coming over from Oklahoma. Lamat Butler. You know,

121
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:48,920
Speaker 2: we've been talking about the threes. We haven't even started

122
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 2: talking about the dunks. In the second half, when the

123
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:55,040
Speaker 2: threes weren't hitting, those guys just became five slam A

124
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,560
Speaker 2: Jama and Lama Butler may have had the dunk of

125
00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 2: the year so far, you know what, I take that back,

126
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:01,599
Speaker 2: Brandon Gay person had the dunk of the year so far.

127
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 2: He gave that guy a poster earlier in the year.

128
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 2: We Lamont Butler Soren high with one hand definitely could

129
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:11,719
Speaker 2: have been second. Jackson Robinson continues to bounce back from

130
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:15,359
Speaker 2: that one point game versus Duke fourteen points five thirty

131
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:17,920
Speaker 2: five of thirteen shooting. I thought he forced his shot

132
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:19,880
Speaker 2: a little bit, but you know what, he got the

133
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:23,560
Speaker 2: job done. Andrew Carr is a guy that was silent

134
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,039
Speaker 2: in the box score once again, but once again he

135
00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:30,440
Speaker 2: let his impact be known as the guy had five assists,

136
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 2: six rebounds, six points. That's a guy that doesn't have

137
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 2: to be flashy, but he's got the experience to deliver

138
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:37,920
Speaker 2: when it matters most.

139
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 1: And these guys once again put up up a great performance.

140
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 1: One eight to fifty nine the final score.

141
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:47,359
Speaker 2: The Cats get a victory against Jackson State, probably the

142
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 2: easiest team that they'll play this year. But we can

143
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 2: still break it down. We can still talk about it tonight.

144
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 2: You know, when the parents are away, the kids will play.

145
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 2: It feels like a little bit like that tonight, So

146
00:06:58,200 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 2: you know what will welcome all callers.

147
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:00,919
Speaker 1: So one more time.

148
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 2: Eight five nine two eight oh two two eight seven.

149
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 2: The Cats advanced to five and oh and we'll next

150
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:07,240
Speaker 2: take on Western Kentucky.

151
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:11,000
Speaker 1: HM. That may be a little bit of a tougher.

152
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 2: Game, especially as a as myself a Hilltop or alumni.

153
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 2: But we'll talk about the Cats tonight. We'll take a break,

154
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 2: take some of your phone calls.

155
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 1: On the other side. This is the local Toyota Dealers KSR.

156
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:24,240
Speaker 4: Postgame show seemed to go as Garrison picks up the

157
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 4: loose ball ahead to Chandler. Chandler thought about the three.

158
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 4: Here's the handoff to Noah. Noah, screen shoot the three,

159
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:39,640
Speaker 4: young man, Yes, shoot if You're ever gonna shoot one?

160
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 4: Shoot it now?

161
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 1: Welcome back.

162
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:45,200
Speaker 2: This is the local Toyota Dealers KSR postgame show. That

163
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:48,840
Speaker 2: audit audio courtesy of the UK Sports Network. How do

164
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 2: we get through the full first segment and not talk

165
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 2: about Trent Noah getting his first points as a Kentucky Wildcat?

166
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 2: You know, I kind of did want to see the

167
00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 2: Kentucky guys be subbed in a little bit sooner than

168
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:00,200
Speaker 2: they did.

169
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:01,080
Speaker 1: Uh.

170
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 2: It looks like Travis Perry came in with about five

171
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 2: fifty left in the game. I think it was good

172
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,400
Speaker 2: for him to play with the starters a little bit,

173
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 2: and he got to do that for a couple minutes.

174
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 2: But Trent Noah comes in with two fifty five left

175
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 2: and he hits that three pointer and the Cats win

176
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 2: one oh eight to fifty nine. A five nine two

177
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 2: eight oh two to eight seven is the number. I'm

178
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 2: Billy Rutlands. You can follow me on Twitter at Billy

179
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 2: r Sports. I also have a text line. People are

180
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 2: commenting on the text line. One person says, you sound

181
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,720
Speaker 2: good but intense. I feel like you just smashed a

182
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 2: couple of red bulls and are ready to kick some ass.

183
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 2: Gavin better watch out well one, Gavin, he should watch out.

184
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 2: He should always be watching out being in the studio

185
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:41,600
Speaker 2: with me. But I've kind of tried to shift away

186
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 2: from the energy drinks. Matt says, I'm always a little

187
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,320
Speaker 2: grumpy after I have a couple of Red Bulls. So

188
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,040
Speaker 2: we've switched to the Liquid IV. I don't know if

189
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,880
Speaker 2: you're with the Liquid IV yet, but that's the only

190
00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 2: way I'm making it through some of these games.

191
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 1: In the game tomorrow, remember we'll have it.

192
00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:58,960
Speaker 2: We have the Kentucky Texas game starting at twelve thirty

193
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:02,600
Speaker 2: pm kur pregame show tomorrow. But we're breaking down a

194
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,640
Speaker 2: little basketball tonight. The Cat's big win and we're gonna

195
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:07,240
Speaker 2: hand it off to you. Eight five nine two eight

196
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:09,240
Speaker 2: h two two eight seven. Let's go to the phones.

197
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:10,480
Speaker 2: Let's see if they're working.

198
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 1: Mike is up first, Good evening, Mike. Can you hear me? Oh, Mike,

199
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 1: are you there?

200
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 5: Oh yes, I'm here.

201
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:24,760
Speaker 1: Okay, I got you man, your first caller.

202
00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 5: Okay, cool?

203
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 6: Yeah, So.

204
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,680
Speaker 5: Is this your first time hosting the postgame show?

205
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 2: You know, I think I did an exhibition game a

206
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:37,439
Speaker 2: year or two ago, but not with the bright lights

207
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 2: on like we have tonight.

208
00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:38,720
Speaker 7: Mike.

209
00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 5: Oh, well, congratulations, man, You've earned it.

210
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 1: Thank you man. What do you think of the game tonight?

211
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 5: Well, I think this is the best offensive back court

212
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:54,480
Speaker 5: that we've had since probably Region Rondo and whoever it

213
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 5: was he played with, or Or Hawkins and Fitch back

214
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:03,360
Speaker 5: in the day. She can remember them. But also, like,

215
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 5: I'm thankful for the world of sports gambling because it

216
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 5: makes it makes a game like this interesting because I

217
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:15,360
Speaker 5: you know, I hammered them to cover and they covered. Man,

218
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,520
Speaker 5: So it's a good night. Drinks are on me.

219
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:21,520
Speaker 2: Well, Mike, we appreciate the call. Thanks for being our

220
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:24,720
Speaker 2: first caller tonight. You're right, the Cats covered the minus

221
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:28,880
Speaker 2: thirty four spread that they had on DraftKings, And you're right, Mike,

222
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:30,959
Speaker 2: I mean, how can you not be excited about what

223
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 2: you've seen by this offense, specifically this backcourt, specifically guys

224
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:39,440
Speaker 2: like Lamont Butler, who not only is so good defensively

225
00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 2: but can score when he needs to. Jackson Robinson, who's

226
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,720
Speaker 2: had his ups and downs, but otego Away and Kobe

227
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:48,600
Speaker 2: Breda are the two stars of the show. I'd be

228
00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 2: really curious to see how this team would adapt if

229
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:53,040
Speaker 2: we're something were to happen to one, if not two

230
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:56,760
Speaker 2: of those guys. But they just seem perfect in this

231
00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:58,280
Speaker 2: Mark Pope system.

232
00:10:57,920 --> 00:10:58,319
Speaker 1: Don't they.

233
00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,400
Speaker 2: I mean Kobe Bret, he missed a three early in

234
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:03,640
Speaker 2: the first half and I had to like kind of

235
00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:06,240
Speaker 2: reset and make sure like this was this wasn't a dream.

236
00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 2: I mean, that guy has been money. And then he

237
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,319
Speaker 2: ended tonight as the leading scorer with twenty two points,

238
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:14,240
Speaker 2: eight to eleven from the field and five of eight

239
00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 2: from three. So it was a quite impressive performance by them.

240
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,120
Speaker 2: Like we said at the beginning, this is Jackson State.

241
00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,200
Speaker 2: They do have a guy that's six eleven, two ninety

242
00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:26,680
Speaker 2: down there by the time yet the game was ending,

243
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,040
Speaker 2: he wasn't even running to the other side of the court.

244
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:30,280
Speaker 1: I can't blame him.

245
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:32,839
Speaker 2: The way Kentucky plays, they just go up and down

246
00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:36,280
Speaker 2: and up and down, and it's such a fun, exciting

247
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,679
Speaker 2: style to watch. Back to the phones A five nine

248
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:41,200
Speaker 2: two eight oh two two eight seven, Charles is on

249
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:41,560
Speaker 2: the line.

250
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:45,440
Speaker 8: Good evening, Charles, Hey, Billy, how are you doing.

251
00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:47,240
Speaker 1: I'm hanging in there, man, what about you.

252
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:49,320
Speaker 4: Doing well?

253
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:49,920
Speaker 8: Doing well?

254
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:50,440
Speaker 6: So?

255
00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:54,080
Speaker 8: Are you tired of these kind of tune up games?

256
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 8: These cupcake games are are you ready to get into

257
00:11:56,960 --> 00:12:00,160
Speaker 8: conference plays or you think maybe we're gonna have a

258
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:03,200
Speaker 8: hard road to go in the conference. So it looks like,

259
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 8: you know, we got some real tough teams. You look,

260
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:09,440
Speaker 8: Tennessee's look doing real well tonight, and we've got Auburn

261
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 8: Alabama just a lot of tough teams. And you know,

262
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:16,840
Speaker 8: I know we're not playing the toughest competition.

263
00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:18,920
Speaker 3: Right now, but man, I sure, Amy, and.

264
00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:22,080
Speaker 8: I'm just glad to enjoy the watching the castaway at

265
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 8: are Annow. What do you think is gonna happen here

266
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 8: in about a month or so.

267
00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:28,840
Speaker 2: Well, Charles, appreciate you calling in and being a part

268
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,960
Speaker 2: of the Billy R Sports postgame show. You know, maybe

269
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:33,880
Speaker 2: a little bit of me is getting tired of some

270
00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:37,440
Speaker 2: of these easy games early on, But another part of

271
00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:40,920
Speaker 2: me thinks that we're giving Mark Pope a little time

272
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 2: to implement a system to get these guys all on

273
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:46,960
Speaker 2: the same page. And you already had the big matchup

274
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 2: versus Duke, so you have had a big game early on.

275
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:51,880
Speaker 2: But you know what you do scratch your head a

276
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:55,280
Speaker 2: little bit when you're taking on a Lipsicon, a Jackson State,

277
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:58,160
Speaker 2: even a Western Kentucky I love that they're welcoming in

278
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,480
Speaker 2: the tops to Rupp Arena. But don't you worry, Charles.

279
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:05,600
Speaker 2: There'll be plenty of tough games coming up after wes Western,

280
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:10,119
Speaker 2: Kentucky and Georgia State. I believe they start that Clemson

281
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:15,120
Speaker 2: Gonzaga stretch, which will I think, really get this season started.

282
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:17,079
Speaker 2: And then I'm sure Louisville's around the.

283
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 1: Corner right after that. So the tough games are coming,

284
00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 1: you know. In the SEC.

285
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:23,760
Speaker 2: I think Alabama's a little worse than they thought they

286
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,480
Speaker 2: might be. Maybe Tennessee is a little better. I'm not

287
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 2: worried about Arkansas, but man, am I ready for that game?

288
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 2: Man am I ready for Caliperry to come into Rupp Arena.

289
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:35,520
Speaker 2: I'd like to see his face getting a look at

290
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:37,800
Speaker 2: this offense. Maybe you'll have to scream go a couple

291
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:41,040
Speaker 2: more times. Let's keep it rolling. Danny is on the line.

292
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:41,880
Speaker 2: Good evening, Danny.

293
00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:42,319
Speaker 1: What's up?

294
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:44,880
Speaker 9: Hey, how you doing.

295
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:47,079
Speaker 1: I'm good, man, I'm good. Thanks for calling in.

296
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:53,680
Speaker 6: Yeah, so you said something about, well, this game is

297
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:57,120
Speaker 6: what it is. We did beat Duke. Not to look ahead,

298
00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 6: but we have a game at Clemson that is the truth.

299
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 6: First road game that's right, So, how good is Clemson?

300
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:10,520
Speaker 6: I don't really know anything about them. Is that you

301
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 6: know the crowd's going to be going crazy. How do

302
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 6: you think we do in that game?

303
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:17,960
Speaker 2: Well, I appreciate the call, Danny, thanks for calling in.

304
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 2: You know, Clemson went on a pretty good run in

305
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:23,240
Speaker 2: the NCAA Tournament last year, but they've lost a lot

306
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 2: of talent. They are not the same team that they

307
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:28,000
Speaker 2: were a year ago. I think a lot of people

308
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,400
Speaker 2: want to see a UNC or a duke when it

309
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 2: comes to that that acc SEC challenge, but they got

310
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,960
Speaker 2: Clemson since they made such a good run. And I'll

311
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 2: just be completely honest with you, I haven't watched a

312
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:40,560
Speaker 2: lot of Clemson. I know that they're a little worse

313
00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 2: than they were last year. But really the number one

314
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:46,200
Speaker 2: thing about that game is going to be how these

315
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:47,400
Speaker 2: guys react on the road.

316
00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:50,000
Speaker 1: And in the past with cal.

317
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:52,120
Speaker 2: You know, it's been a learning process, right, I mean,

318
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 2: these kids are seventeen, eighteen, nineteen years old most of

319
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:57,520
Speaker 2: the time, they've never played on the road like that.

320
00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:00,960
Speaker 2: This time you got fifty year seniors. This time you've

321
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:03,720
Speaker 2: got guys that have done that, So maybe there will

322
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:04,520
Speaker 2: be less of.

323
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 1: An adjustment period.

324
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 2: For these experienced players to go on a road and

325
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:11,200
Speaker 2: play a team like Clemson. You know what, I fully

326
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 2: expect the way that I've seen this Kentucky offense play

327
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:16,560
Speaker 2: and not just win by three pointers. They've done it

328
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:21,120
Speaker 2: in games before this without shooting the three. I think

329
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 2: that they can overcome a lot of adversity. It's the

330
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,280
Speaker 2: Gonzaga game that I'm circling now. Our boys are going

331
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,640
Speaker 2: to be driving up to Seattle for the game. I

332
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:30,360
Speaker 2: will be not making that trip because I have to

333
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:34,240
Speaker 2: stay here in the studio. Somebody does, right, But that's

334
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:37,240
Speaker 2: the game that I would circle and worry about as

335
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 2: possibly Kentucky's first loss. But you got to you gotta

336
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 2: get past Western first. Remember they play Western on Tuesday.

337
00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:45,960
Speaker 1: Chad is up next. What's up?

338
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:46,200
Speaker 10: Chat?

339
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 1: Can you hear me?

340
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:48,560
Speaker 9: Yeah?

341
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 1: Turn your radio down and I'll talk to you.

342
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 9: I got you.

343
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:55,160
Speaker 1: What's up? Brother?

344
00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:57,520
Speaker 9: How are you pretty good?

345
00:15:57,560 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 11: There?

346
00:15:57,800 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 12: You?

347
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 1: I'm good. You watch a game tonight?

348
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 13: Yes?

349
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:06,480
Speaker 9: I did. It was a wonderful game. Kentucky just is

350
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 9: spanking them.

351
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 1: You're spanking them, that's right, Chad. I love to see it.

352
00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:15,120
Speaker 9: I love it every day.

353
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 1: Yep, yeap? What did you?

354
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:18,840
Speaker 8: Uh?

355
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:19,240
Speaker 4: What?

356
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:20,840
Speaker 1: Do you think about this Kobe braa guy he can

357
00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:21,360
Speaker 1: really shoot it?

358
00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:22,920
Speaker 8: Huh.

359
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 9: Man, I tell you we got everybody on our tanks

360
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 9: and showed them we can bring our Kentucky kids in

361
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:32,520
Speaker 9: and they're gonna shoot it too.

362
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:35,760
Speaker 1: That's right. Yeah, we didn't see him very much.

363
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:38,880
Speaker 2: But I mean, if there's foul trouble, Chad, Right, if

364
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,360
Speaker 2: if push comes to shove, it seems like those guys

365
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:43,160
Speaker 2: could come in and probably produce the good minutes.

366
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:47,520
Speaker 9: Right, I tell you what they'll I guarantee you they'll

367
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:49,000
Speaker 9: be on there ready to shoot.

368
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:52,200
Speaker 1: Mm hmmm, No, I agree. I agree. You got anything

369
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 1: else first, Chad? Before we let you go.

370
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 9: Well, I appreciate you talking to me. I've called a

371
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:01,080
Speaker 9: lot of times ever got through.

372
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:06,160
Speaker 1: But I top with absolutely chat. We appreciate the call.

373
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:06,639
Speaker 8: Uh.

374
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:09,199
Speaker 2: If you want to tip on how to get in

375
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:12,160
Speaker 2: to the KSR postgame show, since I am the producer

376
00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:15,439
Speaker 2: and call screener, you know most big games, we won't

377
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:19,360
Speaker 2: open this calls until right before Matt ends his monologue

378
00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 2: and goes to break. And you got to remember most

379
00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,560
Speaker 2: of you are listening on stream, so that's a two

380
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:27,240
Speaker 2: minute delay, so you want to time it right before

381
00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:30,120
Speaker 2: the end of Matt's monologue, when you start calling in

382
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:32,560
Speaker 2: and try to get on those phone lines. We do

383
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,439
Speaker 2: appreciate Gavin in the other room tonight. He's our part timer.

384
00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:38,040
Speaker 2: He's learning how to work the phones tonight, and he's

385
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 2: doing a good job, as we've been able to answer

386
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:44,200
Speaker 2: everybody that's called so far. Let's take a couple more

387
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,119
Speaker 2: and then we'll take our first break here in a

388
00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,320
Speaker 2: second eight five nine two oho two two eight seven,

389
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:50,240
Speaker 2: David is on the line.

390
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:51,399
Speaker 1: What's up, David.

391
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:54,880
Speaker 9: Hey Man, thanks for taking call?

392
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:58,120
Speaker 1: Of course, uh.

393
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:01,800
Speaker 13: Something on on X.

394
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:05,480
Speaker 7: They they really got thinking about this team and how

395
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 7: like everybody else, I'm super excited to kind of see

396
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:11,880
Speaker 7: how it's playing out this year and really been excited

397
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:15,120
Speaker 7: to see Pope back and kind of get things going.

398
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:19,960
Speaker 7: But the person that tweeted it just said, you know,

399
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:22,320
Speaker 7: we have to keep in context, this is likely the

400
00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:25,760
Speaker 7: worst team that Mark Pope will have for a while,

401
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 7: and like as excited as I am about watching him play,

402
00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:31,640
Speaker 7: like he didn't get to recruit the way he normally

403
00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 7: would and we're seeing him really get some good players

404
00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:38,399
Speaker 7: signed up to play in future years. But like it

405
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:40,360
Speaker 7: got me thinking, I mean, we're talking about a team

406
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,960
Speaker 7: that looked at at the beginning thinking how are.

407
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:43,480
Speaker 6: They going to look?

408
00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:46,080
Speaker 7: How are they going to be? And uh and their

409
00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 7: playing lights out, like they're blowing teams out. They've beat

410
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:54,120
Speaker 7: Drink already, and we talked about the ceiling for this year,

411
00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:57,240
Speaker 7: but even looking forward to the next few years, like

412
00:18:57,280 --> 00:19:00,720
Speaker 7: it's really exciting to see the system them play out.

413
00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:04,480
Speaker 7: And for those of us that have been looking forward

414
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:08,240
Speaker 7: to being excited about UK basketball again, the breath of

415
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:12,040
Speaker 7: fresh air like it's there, but I feel like the

416
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 7: intensity behind it is knowing that as great as this

417
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:20,320
Speaker 7: year is already, like it's just the start, I feel

418
00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:22,280
Speaker 7: like thanks are just gonna keep building off this.

419
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:24,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think there's a lot of truth in what

420
00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,200
Speaker 2: you're saving saying, David, and I appreciate the call this evening.

421
00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:30,000
Speaker 2: You know, Mark Pope just kind of threw these guys

422
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:32,800
Speaker 2: together last minute, didn't he. I mean, we've got transfers

423
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:36,600
Speaker 2: from Oklahoma, Wake Forest. I mean, we've got the sixth

424
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:40,200
Speaker 2: man from BYU Dayton, we got a guy that was

425
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:42,280
Speaker 2: on a mission trip for a couple of years, didn't

426
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:46,240
Speaker 2: even play basketball. I mean, these guys are just all

427
00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:49,120
Speaker 2: kind of thrown together and look how talented they are,

428
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,719
Speaker 2: Look how much they've already bought in to Mark Pope's system.

429
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:55,640
Speaker 2: And kind of like the last call was just talking about, now,

430
00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:58,600
Speaker 2: give Mark some time to recruit. He's already won some

431
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:03,199
Speaker 2: recruiting battles already with Moreno and Jasper Johnson. Now what

432
00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:05,560
Speaker 2: more could Mark Pope do? How about when other people

433
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:08,200
Speaker 2: see this dial of ball, you're telling me people aren't

434
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:10,240
Speaker 2: going to be wanting to transfer to Kentucky after seeing

435
00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:13,720
Speaker 2: that they already do. Don't get me wrong, but after

436
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 2: seeing a team play like that, I feel like you're

437
00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 2: gonna have your pickings for some of the best guys

438
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 2: in the country. You know that last caller had set

439
00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,400
Speaker 2: a term I do want to touch on, and it's

440
00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:27,240
Speaker 2: one that's been overused a lot since Mark Pope has

441
00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:30,119
Speaker 2: taken over. And that's breath of fresh air. And trust me,

442
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,800
Speaker 2: I've said it a lot too, But he's not wrong.

443
00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 7: Right.

444
00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:35,240
Speaker 2: We may have said it a lot, but that doesn't

445
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:37,199
Speaker 2: make it not true. It is such a breath of

446
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:39,800
Speaker 2: fresh air. Just to see these guys do it a

447
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:41,879
Speaker 2: different way than what we've seen at Kentucky over the

448
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 2: last few years. It really, really is striking the difference

449
00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:49,520
Speaker 2: that we've seen, and these guys seem to be really

450
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:50,040
Speaker 2: enjoying it.

451
00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:52,080
Speaker 1: And that's the other thing. I mean, if you.

452
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,080
Speaker 2: Don't listen to the radio broadcast, you should for at

453
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,680
Speaker 2: least one game just to hear the joy in Jack

454
00:20:56,720 --> 00:21:00,919
Speaker 2: Gibbons's voice when these guys start getting high, when they

455
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:04,719
Speaker 2: start hitting shots. I mean that joy is palpable, and

456
00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 2: you see it spread throughout rapp Aarena. And you saw

457
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:10,160
Speaker 2: another good crowd, even for a bad Jackson State team.

458
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:12,119
Speaker 2: Did you see how many people were waiting for Mark's

459
00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,399
Speaker 2: post press conference afterwards?

460
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:16,240
Speaker 1: Very very impressive.

461
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:18,920
Speaker 2: Let's take one more call and then we will take

462
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:22,120
Speaker 2: another break here on the local Toyota Dealers KSR post game.

463
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:25,359
Speaker 1: Show, doing good is on the line. How are you doing?

464
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:27,359
Speaker 11: And what do you want me to be?

465
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:30,360
Speaker 1: What do I want you to be?

466
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:35,040
Speaker 6: I want you to be doing good, So you're.

467
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:36,520
Speaker 1: Gonna have to turn down whatever is going on in

468
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:40,359
Speaker 1: the background. They're doing good, So I don't know what

469
00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:40,760
Speaker 1: you want.

470
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:45,760
Speaker 2: Okay, we're gonna give up on him. We'll reset a

471

Speaker 2: It's late on a Friday night. You're maybe already out

473
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 2: on the town. You're en route to your destination tonight

488
00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:37,560
Speaker 2: There was some news that broke during the Kentucky Jackson

489
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:42,320
Speaker 2: State game about a former Kentucky player, Aaron Bradshaw. He

490
00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:47,439
Speaker 2: was missing from Ohio State's game versus Campbell today and

491
00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 2: Ohio State released a statement saying Aaron Bradshaw is not

492
00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:55,000
Speaker 2: currently participating in team activities. The university is following its

493
00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:59,560
Speaker 2: established process due to federal privacy laws, we cannot share

494
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:01,560
Speaker 2: further information at this time.

495
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:05,720
Speaker 1: Hmm, what does that mean?

496
00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:09,960
Speaker 2: What has Aaron Bradshaw got himself into one? I hope

497
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:14,199
Speaker 2: he's okay, but two rumors are swirling right now on

498
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:17,000
Speaker 2: many social media sites about what could be going on

499
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:20,800
Speaker 2: with Aaron Bradshaw. I'm not gonna be one to speculate.

500
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:24,720
Speaker 2: I know many people have mentioned gambling, a gambling investigation

501
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 2: that has not been reported to be clear, but Aaron Bradshaw,

502
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:31,119
Speaker 2: the former Cat may not be available to take on

503
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:35,480
Speaker 2: Kentucky when these two teams play later this season. A

00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:46,200

Speaker 14: And also, congrats on your first post game show. That's

512
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:53,720
Speaker 14: been there, going great so far?

513
00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:54,240
Speaker 1: Well, thank you.

514
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:55,720
Speaker 2: Matt asked me if I was going to be nervous,

515
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,160
Speaker 2: I'm like, no, man, I mean I was born for this.

516
00:23:58,480 --> 00:23:59,919
Speaker 1: Come on, let's go, man, let's go.

517
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:03,479
Speaker 14: Well, well, I mean you've been co hosting these shows

518
00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:07,320
Speaker 14: for quite a bit now, anyway, that's right, for you

519
00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:11,359
Speaker 14: to yeah, yeah, exactly, But I was just going to

520
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:13,800
Speaker 14: say about the game. I think usually whenever you see

521
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:17,040
Speaker 14: spread kind of this high, usually people kind of check out,

522
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 14: especially whenever you're talking about a November game, But not

523
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,000
Speaker 14: with this team. I think this team is just super

524
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,639
Speaker 14: exciting to watch, and I think, you know, for me personally,

525
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:30,960
Speaker 14: I don't think I've cared about these kind of stinky games,

526
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:32,399
Speaker 14: and I know we kind of have a run coming up,

527
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:34,639
Speaker 14: but I haven't cared about these games and years and

528
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:38,360
Speaker 14: years under cal And and it's it's just been really

529
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 14: fun to really enjoy every game again and make time

530
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:44,080
Speaker 14: to want to watch these games, whether it's a Friday night,

531
00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:47,440
Speaker 14: Tuesday night, whatever. So I've just really enjoyed watching the

532
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:50,160
Speaker 14: season so far, and I can't wait even for these

533
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,280
Speaker 14: upcoming games, the kind of stinky teams coming up.

534
00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:56,639
Speaker 2: No, it's been fun to watch Pope piece this team together.

535
00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:58,280
Speaker 2: Before I let you go, Jonathan, I want to ask

536
00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:01,280
Speaker 2: you who's your favorite guy on this squad. You're somebody

537
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:03,600
Speaker 2: that watches all these games, who's your number one guy

538
00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:04,080
Speaker 2: right now?

539
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:07,720
Speaker 9: Oh?

540
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:10,560
Speaker 14: Man, it's I think it's such a tough question because

541
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 14: there it is balance, like everybody brings kind of unique

542
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:20,159
Speaker 14: aspect to the to the team. I'll probably go with

543
00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:20,959
Speaker 14: the fan favor though.

544
00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:22,000
Speaker 12: I'll go with Kerr.

545
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:24,399
Speaker 14: Whenever he's able to hit a three or get a seal.

546
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:27,600
Speaker 14: It's just it's like it's electric. It's it's electric. So

547
00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:30,120
Speaker 14: I love to watch him do his thing whenever he's

548
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:30,719
Speaker 14: in the zone.

549
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:33,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like to pick Jonathan and I appreciate the call.

550
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:37,000
Speaker 2: Thanks for the call this evening. You know, Kirk Chrisey

551
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:40,800
Speaker 2: didn't have a point tonight, zero points, two from the field,

552
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 2: only played twelve minutes. Dude had seven assists, seven assist

553
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:47,760
Speaker 2: and didn't even put a point in the box score.

554
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:51,760
Speaker 2: These guys are not selfish. They're not worried about their stats.

555
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:54,919
Speaker 2: They're worried about winning the game and the You know,

556
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:57,639
Speaker 2: I was gonna say breath, breath of fresh air, but

557
00:25:57,680 --> 00:25:58,080
Speaker 2: I won't.

558
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:02,639
Speaker 1: It's just refreshing. It really is my favorite player. I

559
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:03,000
Speaker 1: don't know.

560
00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:05,719
Speaker 2: I think it's become Kobe Bray over these last couple games,

561
00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:06,960
Speaker 2: just because it is money.

562
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:08,840
Speaker 1: Man, it is money.

563
00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:10,719
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna tell him to go stand in his corner.

564
00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:12,960
Speaker 2: But also a guy like Andrew Carr, who is so

565
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:15,719
Speaker 2: selfless who played so good in that Duke game, but

566
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:18,000
Speaker 2: then in these next two games like he's barely scoring.

567
00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:21,200
Speaker 2: I mean, that's a guy that understands it and gets

568
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:23,000
Speaker 2: what Mark Pope needs from him.

569
00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:26,080
Speaker 1: Let's keep it rolling, ed, Ed, what's up?

570
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:26,280
Speaker 4: Ed?

571
00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:26,879
Speaker 1: Can you hear me?

572
00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:28,360
Speaker 13: Yeah?

573
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:28,919
Speaker 11: I can hear you.

574
00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:30,120
Speaker 1: I got you, man, what's up?

575
00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:35,399
Speaker 11: Oh ay, I'm on. Just keep it real short and

576
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:38,680
Speaker 11: that one bites the dust. I couldn't be more happy.

577
00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:43,280
Speaker 11: What a fun game to watch, all the threes lying

578
00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:47,000
Speaker 11: all over the place, very exciting. Couldn't be happier.

579
00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 2: Go caps, Absolutely great call, Ed, thank you for listening.

580
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:54,560
Speaker 2: You know, I don't get to hear the television broadcast

581
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:58,119
Speaker 2: since I'm so locked in with the radio and the

582
00:26:58,200 --> 00:26:59,920
Speaker 2: radio call and making sure we just don't go.

583
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:00,520
Speaker 1: Off the air.

584
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:03,520
Speaker 2: But I did see a stat that Andrew Cappus and

585
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:06,119
Speaker 2: Cameron Mills flash when they were doing the broadcast today,

586
00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:09,000
Speaker 2: is that Kentucky late in the second half had nine

587
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:13,960
Speaker 2: dunks and they had only had twelve or thirteen the entire.

588
00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:16,880
Speaker 1: Season so far. I don't know what got into these guys.

589
00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:19,439
Speaker 2: Maybe the lane was just open because Jackson State was

590
00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:22,359
Speaker 2: that bad, But it felt like as soon as the

591
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:25,199
Speaker 2: second half went and the threes weren't falling, it was

592
00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:29,480
Speaker 2: Robinson had a slam, Butler had his slam. Ah way

593
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:32,520
Speaker 2: was just everywhere with steals and slams, three pointers and

594
00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:33,200
Speaker 2: slam dunks.

595
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:34,680
Speaker 1: What more could you want?

596
00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:37,679
Speaker 2: These guys are really clicking right now. A five nine

597
00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:39,800
Speaker 2: two eight oh two two eight seven. We've got another

598
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:40,520
Speaker 2: mic on the line.

599
00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:44,040
Speaker 15: What's up, Mike, Hey, Billy?

600
00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:44,879
Speaker 11: Uh?

601
00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:49,119
Speaker 15: Well, I've been to all three games, all three home games,

602
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:53,879
Speaker 15: and my wife and hows observation is this is a

603
00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:58,680
Speaker 15: totally different team than we've seen the last few years.

604
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:02,360
Speaker 15: We were just done and how different this team is?

605
00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:03,359
Speaker 15: Do you agree?

606
00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:03,959
Speaker 12: Oh?

607
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:07,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I completely agree when it comes to you know,

608
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:11,160
Speaker 2: what they're talking about in the huddle, you know their

609
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:14,240
Speaker 2: energy on the court, the way that they talk to

610
00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 2: the media in the post game.

611
00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:18,119
Speaker 1: I mean, it all just seems a little different, wasn't it.

612
00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:23,480
Speaker 15: Well, yeah, I had very low expectations of this team.

613
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:24,480
Speaker 6: I mean we had no.

614
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:31,800
Speaker 15: Name brand players, so to speak. But I mean what

615
00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:35,240
Speaker 15: we're playing teams are not very good right now. David

616
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:37,760
Speaker 15: Libskon's not a bad team. I mean they played Western

617
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:38,880
Speaker 15: pretty tough.

618
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:39,280
Speaker 1: But.

619
00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:46,600
Speaker 15: The coach. The sideline coaching looks so different. There's no

620
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:50,040
Speaker 15: one screaming at the players. The players don't seem afraid

621
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:53,600
Speaker 15: when they make a mistake. They're not getting yanked out

622
00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:58,200
Speaker 15: or anything. We're just really stunned at the difference. And again,

623
00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:01,200
Speaker 15: I had very low expectation since this team. I was

624
00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:03,240
Speaker 15: hoping we would win eighteen or four games.

625
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:08,000
Speaker 2: But now where your expectations at? And that, I mean,

626
00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:09,480
Speaker 2: what are you thinking now? Like the kind of the

627
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:10,160
Speaker 2: sky's the limit?

628
00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:10,480
Speaker 1: Right?

629
00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:12,720
Speaker 11: Well?

630
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:16,880
Speaker 15: No, I haven't drank the kool aid on the Final

631
00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:21,280
Speaker 15: four yet her undefeated season or anything like that. It's worse.

632
00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:22,040
Speaker 13: We were pre.

633
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:25,680
Speaker 15: Season ranked what seventh or eighth in the SEC. But

634
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:32,000
Speaker 15: you know, I'd be happy if we win two games

635
00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:35,120
Speaker 15: in the NCAA tournament. We haven't done that in what

636
00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:35,600
Speaker 15: is that?

637
00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:39,040
Speaker 2: How beating down we are? Mike is two games would suffice?

638
00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:41,320
Speaker 2: I know it is Mark Pope's first year, but man,

639
00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:43,320
Speaker 2: these last few years have been rough, so it feels

640
00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:45,040
Speaker 2: like two wins in Atturney would be enough.

641
00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:45,360
Speaker 11: Right.

642
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:47,200
Speaker 6: Yeah.

643
00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:51,880
Speaker 15: Just my wife, she's a basketball player in a way.

644
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:54,880
Speaker 15: She played one year in college for Austin b and

645
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:58,959
Speaker 15: her playing the same is she actually played against pat Summit.

646
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:01,000
Speaker 15: She played it all. She was a walk on at

647
00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:04,480
Speaker 15: Austin t and that's a good claim to fame and

648
00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:05,400
Speaker 15: to play against.

649
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:06,200
Speaker 11: Past absolute college.

650
00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:10,240
Speaker 15: But she tells me, I don't know anything about basketball,

651
00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 15: and she's probably right. She's laughing right now here next

652
00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:18,680
Speaker 15: to me. But I'm really this was a very fun game.

653
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:21,680
Speaker 15: We just had so much fun that I went for

654
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:24,720
Speaker 15: an early dinner, went down to went downtown, you know,

655
00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:27,320
Speaker 15: and walked around a little bit, went to the game early.

656
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:31,080
Speaker 15: This is this is a fun atmosphere, really fun. I'm

657
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:32,480
Speaker 15: I'm kind of buying in.

658
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:35,880
Speaker 1: Well, I completely agree with you, Mike, and we appreciate

659
00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:38,640
Speaker 1: the call. The energy is back in BBN.

660
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:41,440
Speaker 2: And it's just strange that it has to happen when

661
00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:44,120
Speaker 2: the football team goes down the basketball team goes up.

662
00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:47,760
Speaker 2: We can't really have success at the same time, right,

663
00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:50,200
Speaker 2: It kind of works against the other guy when the

664
00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 2: other team's having success. Or maybe it's a distraction, maybe

665
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 2: it helps a little bit.

666
00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:54,960
Speaker 11: Uh.

667
00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,320
Speaker 2: I do want to shout out, you know. This was

668
00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:00,560
Speaker 2: the final installment of the Unity series where Canuck he

669
00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:05,240
Speaker 2: plays HBCUs across the country and two people were honored

670
00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:09,200
Speaker 2: tonight purpose Short who had an illustrious career with Jackson State,

671
00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:13,520
Speaker 2: but also Kenny Skywalker, the legend the Kentucky Wildcat. Kenny

672
00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:16,080
Speaker 2: Skywalker and I told a story on the pre show

673
00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:19,080
Speaker 2: the other day. I'll reiterate it here quickly. When I

674
00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:21,760
Speaker 2: first started in Lexington, I wasn't doing the radio stuff,

675
00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:24,000
Speaker 2: so I got to go to a couple games and

676
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,520
Speaker 2: one of them I sat on media row next to

677
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 2: a guy. I didn't know who he was, but he

678
00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:31,640
Speaker 2: had dreadlocks, he had these cool looking glasses on, and

679
00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:34,640
Speaker 2: he was super, super nice, just talking to me about

680
00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:37,280
Speaker 2: the game, what he thought of the other players. It

681
00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:39,680
Speaker 2: took an entire half for me to lean over to

682
00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:41,640
Speaker 2: Dick Gabriel and say, who is this guy I'm talking

683
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:45,840
Speaker 2: to next to me? Nevertheless, it was Kenny Skywalker, and man,

684
00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:49,720
Speaker 2: he was honored tonight. He joined Darren and in Purvis

685
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:52,520
Speaker 2: after the game. That was a cool conversation on the postgame.

686
00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:55,280
Speaker 2: So a big shout out to him and everybody that

687
00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:58,000
Speaker 2: has made a difference at the HBCUs over the year.

688
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:02,560
Speaker 1: Over the years two two eight seven, Todd is up?

689
00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:03,440
Speaker 6: Next down?

690
00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:03,959
Speaker 1: What's up?

691
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:04,200
Speaker 2: Time?

692
00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:05,520
Speaker 1: Turned down your radio for me?

693
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:11,400
Speaker 13: Okay, Yeah, Gavin didn't. He didn't hook me up to

694
00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:15,280
Speaker 13: the live feed like you normally do when I'm all old, Oh.

695
00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:18,080
Speaker 2: Come on, we gotta we gotta get Gavin to work

696
00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:21,440
Speaker 2: these phones correctly. But I do appreciate him helping me out.

697
00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:23,200
Speaker 3: Yeah.

698
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:26,880
Speaker 13: Sure, Uh got a couple of questions for you, Billy,

699
00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:31,680
Speaker 13: that's your opinion. How many conference games do you think

700
00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:38,720
Speaker 13: will lose? And how many overall losses this season, not

701
00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:40,360
Speaker 13: counting the tournaments.

702
00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:43,160
Speaker 2: That's a good question, Tod, did you while I look

703
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:44,960
Speaker 2: through the schedule, did you have a number in mind?

704
00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:53,800
Speaker 13: I really didn't think I wanted to hear what you

705
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:54,160
Speaker 13: had this.

706
00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:56,240
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, well I can I can start it off.

707
00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,320
Speaker 2: So we've talked about the non conference schedule a little

708
00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:03,680
Speaker 2: bit with Clumsy in Gonzaga Louisville, Ohio State. The SEC

709
00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:08,120
Speaker 2: schedule gets started Saturday, Saturday, January fourth, versus Florida, but

710
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:09,160
Speaker 2: at eleven.

711
00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:11,160
Speaker 1: Am tip off. That's an early one.

712
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:14,600
Speaker 2: But then you've got at Georgia at Mississippi State versus

713
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:17,600
Speaker 2: Texas A and m versus Alabama at Vandy.

714
00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:18,720
Speaker 1: We've talked about it tonight.

715
00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:22,560
Speaker 2: This is a good SEC this year, and you got

716
00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:24,680
Speaker 2: to think this team's going to hit some adversity on

717
00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:27,400
Speaker 2: the road. When you've got to play at Tennessee, when

718
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:30,920
Speaker 2: you've got to play places like at Alabama in Tuscaloosa

719
00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:34,440
Speaker 2: and at Oklahoma, they're maybe not the best team, that's

720
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:37,880
Speaker 2: still a challenge on the road. You've also ending the

721
00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:40,960
Speaker 2: season at Missouri. You know, Todd, when I see these games,

722
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:43,520
Speaker 2: when they're scoring one hundred points at home, you know,

723
00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:46,400
Speaker 2: it makes me really confident that these guys could have

724
00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:51,280
Speaker 2: a good year, could have a what seven loss year?

725
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:52,320
Speaker 1: Six last year.

726
00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:54,400
Speaker 2: I think there'll be some trip ups, Todd, don't get

727
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:57,360
Speaker 2: me wrong, But the cohesion that this team has already

728
00:33:57,440 --> 00:34:00,400
Speaker 2: built so early on, I think they can win a

729
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:03,680
Speaker 2: lot of these games that maybe people are expecting them

730
00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:03,920
Speaker 2: to win.

731
00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:05,120
Speaker 1: Does that make sense.

732
00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:11,840
Speaker 13: Ton, Yeah, I was thinking we might lose two to

733
00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:20,080
Speaker 13: three conference games and two other games. So I'm saying

734
00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:22,000
Speaker 13: five losses for the for the.

735
00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:26,560
Speaker 2: Year, Okay, Yeah, I mean that's that'd be a good

736
00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:28,560
Speaker 2: number for a first year of Mark Pope, wouldn't it.

737
00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:32,920
Speaker 1: I mean, that'd be a great.

738
00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:37,360
Speaker 13: He's really doing a fantastic job, and these are veteran

739
00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:44,239
Speaker 13: players and they get along and everybody can shoot it

740
00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:48,040
Speaker 13: and you was asking that the other guy the favorite

741
00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:48,879
Speaker 13: doll on the team.

742
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:49,600
Speaker 16: Yeah you haven't.

743
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,680
Speaker 1: Oh, oh it's Mark Pope. Yeah that's a good answer.

744
00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:55,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean he's he's won us all over with

745
00:34:55,520 --> 00:35:01,399
Speaker 2: his you know, neu uh neuro science comments or the

746
00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:04,920
Speaker 2: you know, just the just the honesty in which he

747
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:08,000
Speaker 2: talks and not calling us basketball Bennie's. I think that's

748
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:09,719
Speaker 2: a big part of it, Todd. So I think you

749
00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:11,239
Speaker 2: are not in the minority. I think a lot of

750
00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:12,240
Speaker 2: people would pick Pope.

751
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:17,359
Speaker 13: You can tell he's smart just just by listening to him. Tall.

752
00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:20,480
Speaker 13: You know, he's got a smart basketball mind.

753
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:23,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's no doubt about that. We appreciate you calling

754
00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:25,680
Speaker 2: in tonight, Todd. We got to keep it moving. But

755
00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:28,080
Speaker 2: you know what, that's a guy that went through three

756
00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:30,680
Speaker 2: years of medical school before he decided to drop out

757
00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:34,640
Speaker 2: and take like an operations job. Can you imagine that

758
00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:38,439
Speaker 2: conversation he had with his wife, like three years into

759
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:42,359
Speaker 2: medical school at Columbia and he's like, no, I you know.

760
00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:44,080
Speaker 1: I kind of got this basketball thing.

761
00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:44,560
Speaker 7: I gotta do.

762
00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:48,440
Speaker 1: It's in my heart. It's what I care about.

763
00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:50,960
Speaker 2: And look at him now impacting young men the way

764
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:53,239
Speaker 2: that he is a couple more than we got to

765
00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:56,799
Speaker 2: take another break. We're rolling though, hopefully Gavin's doing this right.

766
00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:59,960
Speaker 2: Bluegrass is on the line, Bluegrass, can you hear me?

767
00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:04,319
Speaker 3: I got you, Billy, Billy, Billy, What a good job

768
00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:05,200
Speaker 3: you're doing, my man?

769
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:05,880
Speaker 1: Thank you, brother.

770
00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:10,879
Speaker 3: I don't want to talk about and isn't it no

771
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:12,279
Speaker 3: not a breath of fresh air.

772
00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:14,440
Speaker 8: But you know it's just nice to w.

773
00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:17,759
Speaker 3: R yeah, to see him get You're you're starting to

774
00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:20,160
Speaker 3: see him get past the first and second read now

775
00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:22,279
Speaker 3: and you're starting to get him. They're getting the third

776
00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:25,080
Speaker 3: and fourth read. You're starting to see him slip the

777
00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:29,200
Speaker 3: screen and Anthley Amanoor has already got that down. Patty

778
00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:32,640
Speaker 3: sleep sets the pick, slips the screen wide open. I mean,

779
00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:35,280
Speaker 3: just the free flow of this zoom is so nice,

780
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:35,960
Speaker 3: right am I?

781
00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:36,239
Speaker 11: Right?

782
00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:37,080
Speaker 1: Oh, you're right.

783
00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:39,760
Speaker 2: And you mentioned Ansley Almanor. That's a guy that comes

784
00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:42,000
Speaker 2: over from Fairleigh Dickinson. They had some success in the

785
00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:45,759
Speaker 2: NCAA tournament recently if you remember, and he just you.

786
00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:47,000
Speaker 1: Know, I don't know how to put it, Bluegrass. He

787
00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:48,640
Speaker 1: just knows his role, you know what I mean.

788
00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:51,800
Speaker 2: He's really comfortable in what this coaching staff expects.

789
00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 1: From him.

790
00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:54,520
Speaker 2: He hit some three pointers in this game that were

791
00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:57,440
Speaker 2: very smooth. And that's a guy that I trust when

792
00:36:57,440 --> 00:36:59,000
Speaker 2: he comes into the game and he's not even in

793
00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:00,360
Speaker 2: the starting five, you know what I mean.

794
00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:02,400
Speaker 1: So this team has a lot of depth.

795
00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:06,480
Speaker 2: And when you can trust those six, seventh, eighth, ninth guys,

796
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:09,719
Speaker 2: then you know, I'm not gonna say the dreaded word platoon,

797
00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:10,719
Speaker 2: but we could get to a.

798
00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:13,480
Speaker 1: Point where that many guys are playing. Am I wrong? Bluegrass?

799
00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:17,920
Speaker 3: No, you're right, And hats off to Pope for I

800
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:20,839
Speaker 3: think he was going to Siana, Like if I think

801
00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:22,960
Speaker 3: Pope is one of the only Division one you know,

802
00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:26,680
Speaker 3: powers to even look at angle Alminor's so like, hats

803
00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:29,600
Speaker 3: off the man, Like can he do any wrong? And

804
00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:32,640
Speaker 3: what about the recruiting classes coming in? Already a good

805
00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:35,600
Speaker 3: one there for next year or the next year. I

806
00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:36,759
Speaker 3: mean you have to like what.

807
00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:39,719
Speaker 2: You see, right, I absolutely do in Bluegrass, you have

808
00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:42,080
Speaker 2: a good night, man. We appreciate you calling in uh

809
00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:45,759
Speaker 2: to the Billy R Sports Local Toyota Dealers KSR post

810
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:46,400
Speaker 2: game show.

811
00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:48,520
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just a lot of fun. It is.

812
00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:50,719
Speaker 2: You can hear it in Bluegrass's voice and a lot

813
00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:54,080
Speaker 2: of the callers tonight. It's just a different vibe. And

814
00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:56,239
Speaker 2: now you start to look ahead, right, you've played a

815
00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:58,560
Speaker 2: lot of these bad teams. There's still a couple more left.

816
00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:01,000
Speaker 2: I'm not putting Western in that category. But then you've

817
00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:03,120
Speaker 2: got some really big games on the road at Clemson,

818
00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:05,759
Speaker 2: the game versus Gonzaga, which you haven't won a game

819
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:08,200
Speaker 2: in that series. You have not won a game in

820
00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:12,080
Speaker 2: that series. It's time to change that. So you're absolutely

821
00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:14,799
Speaker 2: seeing a lot, but you're also seeing a roster that's construction,

822
00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:19,000
Speaker 2: constructed to fit the offense that Mark Pope plays. You know,

823
00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:23,240
Speaker 2: it's not just a mass talent and have the guys

824
00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:28,399
Speaker 2: dribble drive right. It's not putting a square peg in.

825
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:29,080
Speaker 1: A round hole.

826
00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:35,400
Speaker 2: It's not promising freshmen playing time. And you may hate

827
00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:38,320
Speaker 2: that comment, but let's be real. That's what's been happening

828
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:41,400
Speaker 2: over these past few years. Cal would have his guys

829
00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:43,080
Speaker 2: and he'd hold on to him a little too long,

830
00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:45,319
Speaker 2: and then when somebody else would get in the game,

831
00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:46,280
Speaker 2: they'd miss two shots.

832
00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:47,480
Speaker 1: You'd get pulled right back out.

833
00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:51,359
Speaker 2: Does anybody have fear of Mark Pope pulling them out

834
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:52,760
Speaker 2: if they miss two three pointers?

835
00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:53,680
Speaker 3: No?

836
00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:57,160
Speaker 1: Come on, give me a break. They shoot through those slumps.

837
00:38:57,160 --> 00:38:58,239
Speaker 1: They empower each other.

838
00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:02,120
Speaker 2: It's not tearing each other down or yelling go I

839
00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:03,839
Speaker 2: know I'm taking a lot of shots here. It's it's

840
00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:06,560
Speaker 2: eleven o'clock. Okay, we've got to get up early for

841
00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:09,600
Speaker 2: the Texas game tomorrow, so we're not running on red

842
00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:11,319
Speaker 2: Bull tonight. But you know what, we are having a

843
00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:14,400
Speaker 2: good time. A five nine two A two two eight seven.

00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:44,680
Speaker 2: love kids, Come on, don't give me such a bad rap.

854
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:48,680
Speaker 2: Sometimes they just aren't the best postgame show callers. But

855
00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:51,319
Speaker 2: you know what, we've got six callers lined up on

856
00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:55,480
Speaker 2: the line, and maybe one of them could fulfill that prophecy.

857
00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:57,640
Speaker 2: So eight five nine two A two two eight seven.

858
00:39:57,840 --> 00:40:00,719
Speaker 2: I'm looking at the call log right now and there's

859
00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:02,760
Speaker 2: a guy named Mario on the line.

860
00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:06,040
Speaker 1: I only know one Mario. Is this my Mario or

861
00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:07,000
Speaker 1: is this somebody else?

862
00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:11,920
Speaker 17: This is the Mario.

863
00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:15,720
Speaker 1: The bell for our guy. Mario. What's up, dude?

864
00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:16,759
Speaker 12: How are you game?

865
00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:21,439
Speaker 17: It was amazing, man, I got a chance to catch

866
00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:24,320
Speaker 17: a little bit of a snippet of your your first

867
00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:26,040
Speaker 17: post game I don't know if this is your first one,

868
00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:29,120
Speaker 17: but your first post game show that you're hosting. Man

869
00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:31,240
Speaker 17: wanted to give you my flowers, be a good teammate

870
00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:33,680
Speaker 17: and tell you how good of a job that you're doing.

871
00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:36,160
Speaker 17: And you're you're really you're killing it, my man, you're

872
00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:36,640
Speaker 17: killing it.

873
00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:38,080
Speaker 1: Well, thank you, brother.

874
00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:40,880
Speaker 2: I mean, you are bringing so much value to KSR

875
00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:43,279
Speaker 2: with the videos that you post every day. I will

876
00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:45,920
Speaker 2: say the one downside of Mario is that I've got

877
00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:47,760
Speaker 2: to be ready to look good at all times.

878
00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:50,040
Speaker 1: You know, radio's theater of the mind.

879
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:53,280
Speaker 2: I have a face for radio, and now Mario's taking

880
00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:55,960
Speaker 2: pictures of me all the time. So Mario, I have

881
00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:59,440
Speaker 2: had to step up my game a little bit, you know.

882
00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:02,040
Speaker 17: I try my best to make you look very good man.

883
00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:03,879
Speaker 17: That's my job. That's what I want to do.

884
00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:05,120
Speaker 13: I want to make sure my.

885
00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:06,560
Speaker 17: Guys look good in front of the camera.

886
00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:08,879
Speaker 13: That's what it's about, man.

887
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:10,200
Speaker 17: But I, like I said, I don't want to take

888
00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:12,040
Speaker 17: too much of your time. Just really wanted to chime

889
00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:13,960
Speaker 17: in with you and let you know you're doing such.

890
00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:14,359
Speaker 12: A great job.

891
00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:16,919
Speaker 2: Well, thank you, Mario. I appreciate you, buddy. And before

892
00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:18,919
Speaker 2: I let you go, we've been asking some people this tonight,

893
00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:20,000
Speaker 2: give me your favorite player.

894
00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:20,239
Speaker 3: Man.

895
00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:23,000
Speaker 2: It's hard to pick one on this team, but I'm

896
00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:25,160
Speaker 2: asking you to do it. Pick one and tell me

897
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:27,320
Speaker 2: who stood out to you in these first five games.

898
00:41:28,680 --> 00:41:30,799
Speaker 17: First five games, I gotta go with double Ow the

899
00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:34,879
Speaker 17: Otega Tron. He's been the most consistent guy. He's been

900
00:41:34,920 --> 00:41:37,920
Speaker 17: the guy who's kind of silently. He's like a silent

901
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:40,160
Speaker 17: assassin out there, you know. He does little things for

902
00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:42,680
Speaker 17: the team, and like I said, he's very productive out

903
00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:45,600
Speaker 17: there and doesn't have too much of a a doesn't

904
00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:47,520
Speaker 17: show too much pride out there on the floor. He

905
00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:49,239
Speaker 17: just does the little things. And like I said, I

906
00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:51,080
Speaker 17: like Otega Tron he has he has a lot of

907
00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:56,240
Speaker 17: swagger to his game. And Alei almnor stepped up. Of course,

908
00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:57,680
Speaker 17: I'm glad he's doing his thing.

909
00:41:57,760 --> 00:41:59,680
Speaker 8: He's making me look good, so you know.

910
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:01,960
Speaker 2: Preciate you give him out a hard time about Ansley

911
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:04,520
Speaker 2: because just keep texting him every time he's coarse. I

912
00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:06,600
Speaker 2: know he loves it, kind of like how it gets

913
00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:09,080
Speaker 2: texted by everybody. But you know what, I appreciate that bit.

914
00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:10,560
Speaker 2: Mount Mario, you're doing a good job.

915
00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:13,040
Speaker 17: Thanks man, Take it easy.

916
00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:16,320
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, you get home safe. There you go, Mario.

917
00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:22,560
Speaker 2: Celebrity appearance there from the KSR crew. Okay, I'm gonna

918
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:24,600
Speaker 2: keep a rolling here. It's our final segment. We have

919
00:42:24,640 --> 00:42:25,600
Speaker 2: a Shannon online.

920
00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:28,360
Speaker 1: This can't beat the dude. What's up, Shannon?

921
00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:30,880
Speaker 12: No, this is standing the mustache.

922
00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:33,200
Speaker 1: Oh the mustache. That's right.

923
00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:36,000
Speaker 2: I've had mustache envy this week. We went to a

924
00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:38,200
Speaker 2: fire department and I did not hold up my end

925
00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:40,360
Speaker 2: of the bargain, Shannon. So hopefully you have a better mustache.

926
00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:40,719
Speaker 11: I know.

927
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:43,360
Speaker 12: I wanted to call in they have great mustange.

928
00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:44,880
Speaker 1: They sure do? They really do.

929
00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:48,719
Speaker 12: Hey, I wanted to talk about the shoe thing.

930
00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:49,080
Speaker 11: Man.

931
00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:52,359
Speaker 12: Anesley had some awesome shoes on the SpongeBob one. Those

932
00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:52,799
Speaker 12: were cool.

933
00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:54,600
Speaker 1: You know what, I didn't see that.

934
00:42:54,920 --> 00:42:56,920
Speaker 2: I wonder if those are shoes that Matt Jones has.

935
00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:59,000
Speaker 2: You know he is, he is quite the shoe guy.

936
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:01,640
Speaker 2: But I did not see he had the spongebobs on tonight.

937
00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:05,800
Speaker 12: They were kind of matching the other guy's shoes, you

938
00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:09,160
Speaker 12: know where I talked about the yellow and pink shoes

939
00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:10,600
Speaker 12: too another team.

940
00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:12,920
Speaker 6: Yeah, I saw that.

941
00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:14,680
Speaker 2: What do you think about the guy throwing a shoe

942
00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:17,160
Speaker 2: at Brandon Garrison though, I mean, come.

943
00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:18,200
Speaker 1: On, they weren't even.

944
00:43:20,880 --> 00:43:22,480
Speaker 12: I know how to get away with that.

945
00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:23,840
Speaker 1: I don't know.

946
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:25,920
Speaker 2: Maybe you could just start throwing shoes in anybody you

947
00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:28,160
Speaker 2: want if you're behind on the fast break.

948
00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:33,560
Speaker 12: That's crazy. Anyways, Man, Billy do a great job. I

949
00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:36,960
Speaker 12: appreciate you doing the postgame show like it's it's really

950
00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:38,000
Speaker 12: a fun listening.

951
00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:41,319
Speaker 1: Well, absolutely, Shannon, I do appreciate you calling in. Thank

952
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:43,520
Speaker 1: you very much. You know, it's a lot of fun.

953
00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:47,200
Speaker 2: You know, I've always wanted to do radio, but specifically

954
00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:50,239
Speaker 2: I've always wanted to do postgame shows. And believe it

955
00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:51,960
Speaker 2: or not, I track it back to a moment I

956
00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:55,800
Speaker 2: was driving back from a Bengals game and Alan Cutler

957
00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:58,320
Speaker 2: was doing the postgame show he was going off ranting

958
00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:02,480
Speaker 2: about Cincinnati losing to my Tampa Bay Buccaneers. And I

959
00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:04,480
Speaker 2: think at that moment I turned to my dad and said,

960
00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:07,000
Speaker 2: this guy's just talking about the game and making money.

961
00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:08,320
Speaker 1: For a living. Why can't I do that?

962
00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:13,200
Speaker 2: And now we fast forward ten fifteen, almost twenty years later,

963
00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:16,279
Speaker 2: and look where we're at. Big Al is next on

964
00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:18,480
Speaker 2: the line. We've got four more, big Al? What's up, man?

965
00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:19,359
Speaker 2: What'd you think of the game?

966
00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:23,399
Speaker 1: Big Al?

967
00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:25,920
Speaker 16: Heymy, can you hear me?

968
00:44:26,040 --> 00:44:26,200
Speaker 3: Yeah?

969
00:44:26,239 --> 00:44:27,920
Speaker 1: I got you, buddy, what's up?

970
00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:28,960
Speaker 8: What about it?

971
00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:30,799
Speaker 3: Hey?

972
00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:34,440
Speaker 16: Hey, let me take something. You know what winning is?

973
00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:35,200
Speaker 1: What's that?

974
00:44:36,600 --> 00:44:39,399
Speaker 16: It's hard working, it feels good. It's been a long

975
00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:41,480
Speaker 16: time as a Kentucky fan. I feel like I could

976
00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:43,320
Speaker 16: say that we got a bunch of dogs on the

977
00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:46,520
Speaker 16: team this year who are playing for the name on

978
00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:48,440
Speaker 16: the front of the jersey and not the name on

979
00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:52,080
Speaker 16: the back. A cohesive group who all we want to

980
00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:54,000
Speaker 16: do is just win. And I really think we're gonna

981
00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:55,080
Speaker 16: hang number nine this year.

982
00:44:55,440 --> 00:44:59,400
Speaker 2: What about you, man, You're so right about the cohesive

983
00:44:59,480 --> 00:45:01,759
Speaker 2: part about this team, and you can just see it right,

984
00:45:01,880 --> 00:45:04,400
Speaker 2: big Al. I mean, it's nothing like anybody said in

985
00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:06,960
Speaker 2: the postgame, and you could take quotes that they've said,

986
00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:08,920
Speaker 2: but just the way that they play for each other,

987
00:45:09,880 --> 00:45:12,719
Speaker 2: it really is special. Now raising number nine, I've got

988
00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:14,520
Speaker 2: to see how this team plays on the road, right,

989
00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:18,200
Speaker 2: I mean, they are neutral site games when it comes

990
00:45:18,239 --> 00:45:19,880
Speaker 2: to the NCAA tournament. But I've got to see this

991
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:22,600
Speaker 2: team on a night where they don't hit a single three,

992
00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:23,160
Speaker 2: you know what I mean?

993
00:45:25,960 --> 00:45:29,719
Speaker 16: I don't I think our defense is as good as

994
00:45:29,760 --> 00:45:30,360
Speaker 16: our offense.

995
00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:34,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, there's there's some truth to what you're saying.

996
00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:37,320
Speaker 2: I mean, they're practice and defense and we're in November.

997
00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:40,040
Speaker 2: That's a little change from what we've heard in years past.

998
00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:42,000
Speaker 1: But they lockdown when they we.

999
00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:46,160
Speaker 16: Have a coach who calls a play after a time out.

1000
00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:50,000
Speaker 1: It's a crazy concept, big Al, it really is. You

1001
00:45:50,120 --> 00:45:50,600
Speaker 1: gotta kind of.

1002
00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:54,160
Speaker 16: Get used to it again, right, I Mean, I'm just

1003
00:45:54,520 --> 00:45:57,240
Speaker 16: I'm just so happy. I'm a Baptist, but I believe

1004
00:45:57,280 --> 00:45:57,800
Speaker 16: in the pope.

1005
00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:01,160
Speaker 2: That's a perfect way to end at big Al. We

1006
00:46:01,239 --> 00:46:03,000
Speaker 2: appreciate the call, and we can hear the joy in

1007
00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:05,480
Speaker 2: your voice. There's no doubt that big Al isn't the

1008
00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:08,640
Speaker 2: only one feeling that way. Just a couple more left

1009
00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:10,879
Speaker 2: Ian is on the line. Ian, what's up, man?

1010
00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:15,160
Speaker 1: You got me? Yes, sir, Hey man, what'd you think

1011
00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:15,560
Speaker 1: of the game?

1012
00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:18,319
Speaker 15: Hey man?

1013
00:46:18,480 --> 00:46:22,480
Speaker 18: I uh, I'm really excited about this team. I'm I'm

1014
00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:25,080
Speaker 18: actually all teed right now with a campfire down here

1015
00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:26,520
Speaker 18: in Saint Petersburg, Florida.

1016
00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:28,960
Speaker 6: Cool weather that we're having them.

1017
00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:29,719
Speaker 1: That's where I'm from.

1018
00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:35,400
Speaker 18: Of course, that's actually that's where I work, but located

1019
00:46:35,440 --> 00:46:37,800
Speaker 18: out of Panella's Park right now. So I'm enjoying the

1020
00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:38,880
Speaker 18: cool weather down here right now.

1021
00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:41,040
Speaker 1: But shout out your mom in regard tonight.

1022
00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:44,440
Speaker 12: I appreciate that, Billy. I appreciate that.

1023
00:46:45,760 --> 00:46:46,359
Speaker 8: For the team.

1024
00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:49,160
Speaker 18: Really, while I've been sitting out here just kind of

1025
00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:52,719
Speaker 18: thinking about the team, I'm trying to think, while we've

1026
00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:55,400
Speaker 18: had really good results, you know what, what can continue

1027
00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:58,360
Speaker 18: to improve this team and maybe where we're kind of

1028
00:46:58,440 --> 00:46:59,960
Speaker 18: lacked in a little bit or what we're trying to,

1029
00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:04,600
Speaker 18: you know, improve upon somewhat. And the big thing is

1030
00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:07,520
Speaker 18: is I can't help but think, after sitting here watching

1031
00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:10,719
Speaker 18: a little bit of the Arkansas game, what Big Z

1032
00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:13,040
Speaker 18: would have looked like in this team, having a five

1033
00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:16,399
Speaker 18: that can step out and hit a three, really consistently

1034
00:47:18,520 --> 00:47:20,400
Speaker 18: trying to kind of think about what like a kryptonite

1035
00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:24,360
Speaker 18: would be for this team, and a little bit thinking

1036
00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:28,120
Speaker 18: forward towards like the Auburn game having their five with

1037
00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:30,680
Speaker 18: Broom who can step out and really and really knock

1038
00:47:30,719 --> 00:47:32,560
Speaker 18: down a three. I don't know if that's going to

1039
00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:34,560
Speaker 18: give us problems in the future, but I'm just curious.

1040
00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:34,719
Speaker 2: What you think.

1041
00:47:34,880 --> 00:47:37,840
Speaker 18: Maybe you know, this team could improve upon, you know,

1042
00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:39,640
Speaker 18: going forward into the future, and then what could give

1043
00:47:39,719 --> 00:47:41,600
Speaker 18: us some troubles you know going ahead?

1044
00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:45,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, and keep wrapping down in Saint Pete. We

1045
00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:48,560
Speaker 2: appreciate the call this evening. You know, Matt talks a

1046
00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:51,120
Speaker 2: lot about like got to have that guy that can

1047
00:47:51,200 --> 00:47:53,520
Speaker 2: take you off the dribble and get a basket when

1048
00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:56,800
Speaker 2: you really need it, And I agree to a degree.

1049
00:47:57,160 --> 00:47:59,920
Speaker 2: I mean, these guys play so together in the offense

1050
00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:02,600
Speaker 2: and the scheme I feel like is so much more

1051
00:48:02,640 --> 00:48:06,040
Speaker 2: important than just one guy beating somebody off a dribble.

1052
00:48:06,080 --> 00:48:08,279
Speaker 2: But when push comes to shoven, you're in those crunch

1053
00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:11,319
Speaker 2: time moments, maybe you do. Maybe we're just beaten down

1054
00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:13,120
Speaker 2: by cal in the mindset of you've got to have

1055
00:48:13,239 --> 00:48:16,359
Speaker 2: somebody to do that. But I think the probably one

1056
00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:18,480
Speaker 2: of the more concerning things for me is when Amari

1057
00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:20,759
Speaker 2: Williams tries to do a little too much, you know

1058
00:48:20,800 --> 00:48:23,360
Speaker 2: what I mean, Like, the guys got eight rebounds in

1059
00:48:23,440 --> 00:48:25,839
Speaker 2: the game. He had four points of relatively quiet night,

1060
00:48:26,120 --> 00:48:28,719
Speaker 2: but had zero turnovers. And I think that's the key,

1061
00:48:29,120 --> 00:48:31,520
Speaker 2: because we've seen him have some pretty high turnover games.

1062
00:48:31,840 --> 00:48:34,520
Speaker 2: When he gets a little ambitious and he starts dribbling

1063
00:48:34,560 --> 00:48:36,800
Speaker 2: the ball up the court, it's like a Mari, you

1064
00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:38,520
Speaker 2: know what, We've got plenty of guards. You just kind

1065
00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:40,480
Speaker 2: of passed that along. But that's not him, right, It's

1066
00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:43,759
Speaker 2: just he wants to lead the offense. He wants to distribute.

1067
00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:46,800
Speaker 2: He'll get his assistant and I'd like to see that

1068
00:48:46,880 --> 00:48:48,759
Speaker 2: guy get close to a triple double this year. I

1069
00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:52,000
Speaker 2: think it's possible. I think it's possible, but maybe this

1070
00:48:52,160 --> 00:48:53,239
Speaker 2: was the game to do it. I mean, you're not

1071
00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:56,480
Speaker 2: going to have an easier opponent than Jackson State, But

1072
00:48:56,640 --> 00:48:58,320
Speaker 2: you know what, you know, some of the things that

1073
00:48:58,400 --> 00:49:01,440
Speaker 2: could give these this team truck, I don't think. I

1074
00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:02,920
Speaker 2: think they could work through it a lot. You know,

1075
00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:04,320
Speaker 2: if they have a night where they don't hit a

1076
00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:06,000
Speaker 2: lot of threes, we've seen them do it at a

1077
00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:08,239
Speaker 2: different level. A night where they have a bunch of

1078
00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:10,759
Speaker 2: foul trouble. We've seen the depth that this team has.

1079
00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:14,160
Speaker 2: You know, I think these guys individually are going to

1080
00:49:14,200 --> 00:49:17,120
Speaker 2: have their moments throughout the year. You know, like Ansley's

1081
00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:18,840
Speaker 2: going to hit a three pointer in the corner to

1082
00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:22,160
Speaker 2: beat Auburn. Or you know, Travis Perry is going to

1083
00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:24,440
Speaker 2: come in because Lamont and Kerr got in foul trouble

1084
00:49:24,440 --> 00:49:26,400
Speaker 2: and he's going to put up six assist when they

1085
00:49:26,440 --> 00:49:29,040
Speaker 2: really need it. And you know what, I think all

1086
00:49:29,120 --> 00:49:31,439
Speaker 2: of these guys are ready for those moments. And that's

1087
00:49:31,600 --> 00:49:35,319
Speaker 2: just different than in years past. That's different if you're

1088
00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:37,880
Speaker 2: a team in the SEC and you have nine scholarship

1089
00:49:37,920 --> 00:49:40,400
Speaker 2: players and you're down to seven already because of injuries.

1090
00:49:41,160 --> 00:49:42,920
Speaker 1: The last caller brought a big Z boy. Did I

1091
00:49:43,000 --> 00:49:46,440
Speaker 1: love big Z? But if he was here, would that

1092
00:49:46,600 --> 00:49:49,640
Speaker 1: not clog up what Mark Pope's got currently going on?

1093
00:49:49,840 --> 00:49:50,120
Speaker 7: Right now?

1094
00:49:50,960 --> 00:49:51,360
Speaker 1: I get it.

1095
00:49:51,400 --> 00:49:54,240
Speaker 2: He'd be perfect for the system and he'd be knocking

1096
00:49:54,280 --> 00:49:58,040
Speaker 2: threes down all night, right, But does Andrew Carr play

1097
00:49:58,040 --> 00:49:59,600
Speaker 2: the same amount of minutes if you have him here?

1098
00:50:00,239 --> 00:50:02,480
Speaker 2: Does Andrew Carr even come here? If that's the case,

1099
00:50:02,600 --> 00:50:04,440
Speaker 2: or Ansley Almanor, who plays a lot of that for

1100
00:50:05,960 --> 00:50:08,160
Speaker 2: you know, that's you know, it's it's it's kind of like,

1101
00:50:08,320 --> 00:50:12,160
Speaker 2: you're glad how things worked out, and we wish nothing

1102
00:50:12,200 --> 00:50:14,200
Speaker 2: but the best for these former players, at least I do.

1103
00:50:14,400 --> 00:50:16,120
Speaker 2: I'm rooting for a Do, I'm rooting for Big Z,

1104
00:50:16,200 --> 00:50:20,640
Speaker 2: even Aaron Bradshaw, even DJ Wagner. But you know what,

1105
00:50:20,880 --> 00:50:23,520
Speaker 2: not when they end up playing Kentucky this year? Two

1106
00:50:23,600 --> 00:50:27,560
Speaker 2: more Zaye is on the line. What's up, Zaane?

1107
00:50:27,600 --> 00:50:28,000
Speaker 14: You got me?

1108
00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:28,640
Speaker 13: Yeah?

1109
00:50:29,719 --> 00:50:31,480
Speaker 1: Here, man, what's up, dude?

1110
00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:33,680
Speaker 19: Yes, Hey, what's going on?

1111
00:50:35,320 --> 00:50:36,640
Speaker 1: Just hanging out? What'd you think of the game?

1112
00:50:38,600 --> 00:50:38,799
Speaker 15: Well?

1113
00:50:39,880 --> 00:50:45,279
Speaker 19: I have to say it's it's refreshing because usually those

1114
00:50:45,320 --> 00:50:48,560
Speaker 19: games in the last few years have been like Arkansas

1115
00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:50,600
Speaker 19: is right now, but an eight point game with fifty

1116
00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:55,000
Speaker 19: seconds left. So glad, we're not glad we're not in

1117
00:50:55,080 --> 00:50:58,360
Speaker 19: their shoes. But you know, the thing that I noticed

1118
00:50:58,400 --> 00:51:01,640
Speaker 19: about the game is you mentioned or somebody mentioned earlier

1119
00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:04,080
Speaker 19: about the drive into the basket and dunk, and it

1120
00:51:04,160 --> 00:51:07,120
Speaker 19: seems like they were definitely trying to be more aggressive

1121
00:51:07,320 --> 00:51:09,600
Speaker 19: with their drives tonight. I don't know if maybe something

1122
00:51:09,640 --> 00:51:12,120
Speaker 19: they were just trying to implement, or if it was

1123
00:51:12,320 --> 00:51:14,319
Speaker 19: just the pass and lanes were open, like you had

1124
00:51:14,400 --> 00:51:18,960
Speaker 19: mentioned earlier, a really really solid game. I mean, they're

1125
00:51:18,960 --> 00:51:20,759
Speaker 19: winning the games the way they should be winning, and

1126
00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:23,560
Speaker 19: I think that's what the fans have missed the most

1127
00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:26,359
Speaker 19: about the Kentucky teams the last five to six years.

1128
00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:28,560
Speaker 2: Zane, tell me if I'm wrong. It was nice to

1129
00:51:28,920 --> 00:51:30,800
Speaker 2: for the game not to be twenty seven to twenty

1130
00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:32,799
Speaker 2: six at halftime, you know what I mean, Like when

1131
00:51:33,080 --> 00:51:35,759
Speaker 2: a team came in that you needed to blow out,

1132
00:51:35,840 --> 00:51:38,480
Speaker 2: you blew out. I mean that is just you know,

1133
00:51:38,600 --> 00:51:42,279
Speaker 2: that is something that I think is proving that these

1134
00:51:42,320 --> 00:51:44,319
Speaker 2: guys are getting the system and they're getting better each

1135
00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:44,839
Speaker 2: and every game.

1136
00:51:46,360 --> 00:51:48,640
Speaker 19: Yeah, well said, I mean, that's what we're That's all

1137
00:51:48,680 --> 00:51:50,719
Speaker 19: we want, right we want to win the games we're

1138
00:51:50,760 --> 00:51:54,680
Speaker 19: supposed to win and be in the games we maybe

1139
00:51:54,719 --> 00:51:57,279
Speaker 19: shouldn't win, or the tough games on the road or

1140
00:51:57,360 --> 00:52:00,239
Speaker 19: the neutral games like Duke. I mean, that's that's all

1141
00:52:00,280 --> 00:52:03,520
Speaker 19: We're just an opportunity to win when it comes down

1142
00:52:03,560 --> 00:52:05,879
Speaker 19: to the to the wire for those games that are tough,

1143
00:52:06,520 --> 00:52:09,480
Speaker 19: and when the games you're supposed to win. That's that's

1144
00:52:09,600 --> 00:52:11,479
Speaker 19: that's what we haven't been getting. That's what we're getting

1145
00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:13,080
Speaker 19: this year, and that's why everybody's on board.

1146
00:52:13,520 --> 00:52:15,759
Speaker 2: Win the games you're supposed to win, saying, let me

1147
00:52:15,800 --> 00:52:17,279
Speaker 2: ask you one more question before I left to go,

1148
00:52:17,520 --> 00:52:17,920
Speaker 2: let you go.

1149
00:52:18,040 --> 00:52:19,240
Speaker 1: Do you ever drink milk?

1150
00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:24,360
Speaker 19: I cannot confirm or deny.

1151
00:52:24,840 --> 00:52:27,000
Speaker 1: Sounds like you're a milk drinkers ay, and that's okay,

1152
00:52:27,120 --> 00:52:28,920
Speaker 1: you can admit it. I'm a milk drinker.

1153
00:52:29,160 --> 00:52:30,400
Speaker 3: I am this.

1154
00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:33,720

1160
00:52:45,520 --> 00:52:47,759
Speaker 19: do have a cousin who's probably a little psycho. He

1161
00:52:47,840 --> 00:52:50,359
Speaker 19: used to drink milk with ice, used to freak.

1162
00:52:50,400 --> 00:52:50,960
Speaker 13: It's all out.

1165
00:52:57,960 --> 00:52:58,839
Speaker 2: like you are a milk drinker.

1166
00:52:58,920 --> 00:53:00,560

Speaker 2: We appreciate everybody that's been listening to the local Toyota

1173
00:53:16,280 --> 00:53:17,600
Speaker 2: Dealer's KSR post game show.

1174
00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:19,160

1175
00:53:19,239 --> 00:53:24,560
Speaker 1: Here Travis is on the line, Travis, what's up? Hey?

1176
00:53:24,600 --> 00:53:25,080
Speaker 9: What was going on?

1177
00:53:25,239 --> 00:53:26,399
Speaker 15: Billy? Oh?

1178
00:53:26,520 --> 00:53:27,160
Speaker 13: You know, hey, brother?

1179
00:53:28,200 --> 00:53:31,880
Speaker 1: Go ahead, hey man, great game tonight.

1180
00:53:34,320 --> 00:53:35,680
Speaker 10: Like I said, you took the words out of my

1181
00:53:35,760 --> 00:53:38,120
Speaker 10: mouth just a couple of minutes ago talking about all

1182
00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:41,560
Speaker 10: the players on our teams that just play their role

1183
00:53:41,760 --> 00:53:45,320
Speaker 10: and just like we'll step up when it's needed. You know,

1184
00:53:45,480 --> 00:53:49,920
Speaker 10: it's I know Matt's favorite player is Jackson Robinson, but

1185
00:53:50,920 --> 00:53:53,439
Speaker 10: a dude, double ow man. He is a beast man,

1186
00:53:53,800 --> 00:53:58,040
Speaker 10: and he has been consistent the last five games that

1187
00:53:58,120 --> 00:54:01,240
Speaker 10: we've played, and that's my favorite player.

1188
00:54:02,160 --> 00:54:04,319
Speaker 2: But there's no doubt, and that guy will go into

1189
00:54:04,360 --> 00:54:06,320
Speaker 2: the post game and say how much it means to

1190
00:54:06,400 --> 00:54:08,320
Speaker 2: play for Kentucky, you know what I mean? And to

1191
00:54:08,400 --> 00:54:10,279
Speaker 2: hear to play like that and then to hear him

1192
00:54:10,320 --> 00:54:12,879
Speaker 2: say something like that, there's no there's a reason why

1193
00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:14,880
Speaker 2: he's been named already twice in this segment.

1194
00:54:16,600 --> 00:54:17,200
Speaker 9: No exactly.

1195
00:54:17,280 --> 00:54:21,560
Speaker 10: Man, he's the dude bro. But now, man, these guys, man,

1196
00:54:21,760 --> 00:54:25,160
Speaker 10: like every night, somebody's gonna show up, you know, whether

1197
00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:27,799
Speaker 10: he's on the bench or whether he's starting. Like it's

1198
00:54:27,840 --> 00:54:30,719
Speaker 10: gonna be somebody's game, and they're gonna show up and

1199
00:54:30,840 --> 00:54:33,120
Speaker 10: it's gonna uh, They're gonna show up when it matters.

1200
00:54:33,520 --> 00:54:37,920
Speaker 10: So that's all that matters to me, man, is the

1201
00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:41,480
Speaker 10: name on the chest and the score at the end

1202
00:54:41,520 --> 00:54:44,400
Speaker 10: of the game. And that's all that matters to me

1203
00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:46,160
Speaker 10: and us Kentucky fans.

1204
00:54:47,520 --> 00:54:49,040
Speaker 1: Well, that's a great way to end it, Travis. We

1205
00:54:49,120 --> 00:54:50,120
Speaker 1: appreciate you calling in.

1206
00:54:50,800 --> 00:54:53,680
Speaker 2: They show up when it matters, and boys, this team

1207
00:54:53,760 --> 00:54:55,640
Speaker 2: shown up over the first five games of the year.

1208
00:54:55,760 --> 00:54:58,839
Speaker 2: Kentucky beats Jackson Say one oh eight to fifty nine.

1209
00:54:59,360 --> 00:55:01,800
Speaker 2: They have scored four hundred and eight points in the

1210
00:55:01,960 --> 00:55:06,000
Speaker 2: four home games that they've played this year. Is simply incredible.

1211
00:55:06,080 --> 00:55:09,239
Speaker 2: Kentucky shoots fifty eight percent tonight, forty four percent from three.

1212
00:55:09,320 --> 00:55:13,200
Speaker 2: They hit seventeen threes, a season high, and a big

1213
00:55:13,320 --> 00:55:16,560
Speaker 2: victory against HBCU Jackson State. Let me set the table

1214
00:55:16,640 --> 00:55:19,680
Speaker 2: for you here a little bit tomorrow. The KSR pregame

1219
00:55:36,520 --> 00:55:39,160
Speaker 2: the number three team in the country. Probably, but you

1220
00:55:39,239 --> 00:55:41,680
Speaker 2: know what, Kentucky's going to go to Austin, a place

1221
00:55:41,800 --> 00:55:44,000
Speaker 2: that it's the farthest west they've ever played in the

1222
00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:47,200
Speaker 2: program's history. And you know what, Texas and then that

1223
00:55:47,400 --> 00:55:50,160
Speaker 2: great I mean, their best wins Vandy. They played Arkansas

1224
00:55:50,200 --> 00:55:52,200
Speaker 2: to a ten point game, so why not maybe Kentucky

1225
00:55:52,280 --> 00:55:55,120
Speaker 2: can show a little magic. But that's going to do

1226
