1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:04,720
Speaker 1: Welcome everyone. It is the Local Toy Dealers KSR postgame show.

2
00:00:04,920 --> 00:00:09,080
Speaker 1: The Cats go down in Alabama ninety six to eighty

3
00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:12,440
Speaker 1: three in a game that was a good start for

4
00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:16,320
Speaker 1: Kentucky but not enough firepower in the end, Cats lose

5
00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:19,439
Speaker 1: fall to eighteen and nine with four games left to

6
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:21,240
Speaker 1: go in the season. EF, I'm nine to two eight

7
00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:24,320
Speaker 1: ho twenty two eighty seven. We'll take your calls here

8
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:30,920
Speaker 1: on a Saturday night. You know, this game is both

9
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 1: frustrating to me but also expected. I said on the

10
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:40,040
Speaker 1: pregame show that I thought Kentucky could get to eighty

11
00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 1: three or eighty four points, but I didn't think we

12
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:47,120
Speaker 1: would win because I didn't think we would be able

13
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:50,199
Speaker 1: to just score as many as Alabama. And in the end,

14
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,199
Speaker 1: that's exactly what happened. I mean, there's good, there are

15
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:57,480
Speaker 1: a lot of intricacies of the game, but ultimately Alabama

16
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 1: has too much offensive firepower, or for the version of

17
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:05,480
Speaker 1: Kentucky that we have right now, the version without Butler

18
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 1: and Robinson, I just don't think they can score enough

19
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:15,640
Speaker 1: to beat an Alabama team that, because of our defensive inefficiencies,

20
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:19,280
Speaker 1: is going to probably score ninety every single time they

21
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:21,920
Speaker 1: play us. You know a lot of people I saw

22
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,680
Speaker 1: online complaining about our defense. Our defense is what it is.

23
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 1: We can't guard really good offensive teams. We just can't.

24
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:33,640
Speaker 1: I mean, like you just have to accept that we

25
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 1: cannot guard Florida, we cannot guard Alabama. I think we're

26
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 1: going to struggle to guard Auburn. That's just what it is. Like,

27
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 1: we just can't guard those teams. So our chance to

28
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,560
Speaker 1: beat them is we got to score a lot of points.

29
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 1: And I think when we have a full roster, I

30
00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:57,320
Speaker 1: think we can do that. But without two of our

31
00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 1: three best scorers, maybe our two best scorers, you just

32
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:02,840
Speaker 1: we just don't have enough to do it. And I

33
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,320
Speaker 1: think you saw it tonight. Honestly, if Kentucky was gonna

34
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:09,240
Speaker 1: have a chance, probably all five starters had to play well.

35
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 1: And I think you could say that four. Did you

36
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,639
Speaker 1: know you had seventeen points from Amari Williams, who I

37
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 1: thought was great. Andrew Carr had seventeen this is the

38
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:21,520
Speaker 1: best version of car we've seen since his injury. Twenty

39
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,480
Speaker 1: from Kobe Brea, who, even though he was only seven

40
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:27,920
Speaker 1: for seventeen I thought actually played really well considering he

41
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 1: was having to create a lot of his offense, and

42
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 1: then I thought Travis Perry with twelve points gave a

43
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:37,640
Speaker 1: lot had some good minutes from Colin Chandler. You know,

44
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:42,720
Speaker 1: it was a bad game for Otega Away and Brandon Garrison.

45
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:47,919
Speaker 1: I thought both those guys really played poorly, and honestly,

46
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 1: we probably needed them both to play well if we

47
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:52,600
Speaker 1: were gonna have a chance to win the game, and

48
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 1: it did not happen. So let's go through first the good.

49
00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 1: You know, the team started amazing points in the first

50
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,360
Speaker 1: five minutes. First half was bizarre. We scored twenty points

51
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 1: in five minutes, and then we only scored twenty points

52
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 1: in the next fifteen minutes. They got the pass the

53
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 1: ball around a lot. When they got open looks, which

54
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 1: car and Braa did, they hit threes. I thought they

55
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:20,960
Speaker 1: played really, really, really really well to start the game.

56
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:22,959
Speaker 1: Then we went to kind of I don't want to

57
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 1: say a line change because they didn't exactly do that.

58
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 1: But then we went to the bench, gave up a

59
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:29,960
Speaker 1: little bit of lead, but still had a decent cushion.

60
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,080
Speaker 1: It was the second time that we went to the

61
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 1: bench that we went from I think up four to

62
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:43,040
Speaker 1: down eleven or whatever our bench You know. I mean

63
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 1: when I say our bench, I think a lot of

64
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 1: it is. There's just such a huge drop off right

65
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 1: now between Amari Williams and Brandon Garrison. And part of

66
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 1: that is that Amari is playing really, really, really well,

67
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 1: but part of it is brand than Garrison is not

68
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 1: playing well. And that drop off I mean because basically

69
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,960
Speaker 1: Pope has now switched to it's a one versus one,

70
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 1: meaning one of those two guys is in no matter what.

71
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 1: And twenty seven minutes for Williams, thirteen for Garrison. I'm

72
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 1: getting to the point that I think it's gonna need

73
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 1: to be like thirty four minutes for Williams, six minutes

74
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:28,480
Speaker 1: for Garrison. I I have to tell you, you know,

75
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 1: in watching now twenty seven Mark Pope games, the only

76
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:36,719
Speaker 1: thing I don't understand is his substitution pattern, and specifically

77
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 1: Amari Williams only had one foul tonight. He had one foul.

78
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 1: Why does he only play in twenty seven minutes these

79
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:47,360
Speaker 1: other teams, you know, Mark Sears played thirty five minutes tonight.

80
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 1: Your best player has got to play like when you're

81
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 1: trying to be great, your best player needs to play

82
00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 1: thirty five minutes. But right now we had you know,

83
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:03,040
Speaker 1: Braya played third five for US. Brian, why can't Williams.

84
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,279
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't understand it. I really know, I

85
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,880
Speaker 1: don't get it. I'd rather have eight more minutes of Amari,

86
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 1: even if he's a little fatigued, because the Garrison minutes

87
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,240
Speaker 1: just they crush us. And I'm surprised because I thought

88
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 1: at the beginning of the year that gap was not

89
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,039
Speaker 1: very far from those guys, but it has been so far.

90
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 1: Like I said, I thought Kobe Bread did well. He

91
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,479
Speaker 1: was seven for seventeen, but he was I mean it

92
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 1: was clear Alabama, especially after those first few minutes, was

93
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,240
Speaker 1: gonna be all over him. He still was able to

94
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:34,800
Speaker 1: create points. Great to see Carr play well. I mean

95
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,679
Speaker 1: Carr again back to my minutes point. Carr plays twenty

96
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,599
Speaker 1: nine minutes. I mean, how's car coming off a back

97
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,359
Speaker 1: injury getting two more minutes in amariy I just I

98
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:47,040
Speaker 1: don't understand. But Carr, he hit corner threes. We got

99
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,280
Speaker 1: to see that part of his game. I thought he

100
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 1: I really thought he played great. And then he kind

101
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 1: of owned the Grant Nelson matchup. I mean Nelson, who

102
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 1: absolutely crushed us last time, was really not a factor tonight.

103
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:00,360
Speaker 1: Give Carr a lot of credit for them at Some

104
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 1: of it, though, was foul trouble for Nelson as well.

105
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,440
Speaker 1: Good minutes by Perry. He went one for seven from

106
00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 1: three Travis had about three of those were open. You

107
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 1: gotta hit those. But besides that, I saw a lot

108
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 1: I liked. He wasn't scared, he went to the basket.

109
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 1: I thought he played well, you know, defensively, he just

110
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 1: kind of is what he is. He's not he's not

111
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 1: able to stay in front of these guys, and that's

112
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 1: gonna be a problem. But when he gets if he

113
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 1: can hit the shots and attack like he does, you

114
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 1: can still make that work. I thought Colin Chandler gave

115
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 1: some good minutes as well. Trent Noah, it was not

116
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:42,359
Speaker 1: a great Trent Noah game. I think the athleticism was

117
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 1: a little bit of an issue for him. I mean,

118
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 1: this Auburn, excuse me, Alabama team. He's really athletic at

119
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 1: each position, and our guys that were not at that

120
00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:53,280
Speaker 1: are not really good athletes. I think you it kind

121
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 1: of exposed him. If Otago Away has a normal otego

122
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 1: Away game, then this is a really close game. He

123
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:05,359
Speaker 1: just I don't know, he just looked way off to me.

124
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:07,920
Speaker 1: You know, he was one for nine from the field.

125
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:12,120
Speaker 1: I counted four missed layups, layups where I wouldn't say

126
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:15,200
Speaker 1: he was wide open, but layups where he could have finished,

127
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:17,280
Speaker 1: and he missed all four of them. And then I

128
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 1: think he really got rattled at the start of the

129
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 1: second half when he picked up those two quick fouls.

130
00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 1: I just thought, and to say, for the first time

131
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:26,800
Speaker 1: all year, I thought in the second half he looked

132
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 1: really just disheveled. And I hadn't felt like that all year.

133
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:35,200
Speaker 1: So you know, if he has his normal twelve to

134
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:38,960
Speaker 1: fourteen points, then this game is coming down to the wire.

135
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 1: It just didn't happen. My other takeaway is and this

136
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 1: isn't why we lost. And you know, if you listen

137
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:47,120
Speaker 1: to this show, I am not a blame the refs guy,

138
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 1: but I thought there was some really questionable officiating, especially

139
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 1: in the second half. I mean, I just didn't understand

140
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,880
Speaker 1: the calls, and then the got whistle happy at the end.

141
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,400
Speaker 1: You know, the refs do that thing where you know,

142
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:02,120
Speaker 1: I feel like they got to call it on both

143
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:05,320
Speaker 1: both ends. I get the sense that maybe Alabama is

144
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:08,960
Speaker 1: a hard team to officiate. Their last four games have

145
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:12,960
Speaker 1: had like obscene amounts of foul calls, which is weird

146
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 1: because they're not a team that in the last couple

147
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,880
Speaker 1: of years has drawn a lot of contact. But I

148
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:21,560
Speaker 1: think they're playing more into doing that because you go, look,

149
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 1: there have been huge amounts of foul calls in their

150
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 1: last four games, and the same was true tonight as well.

151
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 1: So the Cats lose. There are now four games left.

152
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 1: They are seven and seven in conference. Still as of

153
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 1: this moment, will be tied for the eighth seed. We

154
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:42,800
Speaker 1: will get it right now because we have a tie breaker,

155
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:46,120
Speaker 1: but Mississippi State schedule opens up a little bit, so

156
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,319
Speaker 1: for me, it comes down to this. Kentucky's gotta beat

157
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:51,840
Speaker 1: Oklahoma Wednesday night. It's not like you gotta win to

158
00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 1: make the tournament, but if you want to not play

159
00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:56,760
Speaker 1: on Wednesday, we got to go to Oklahoma and get

160
00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,640
Speaker 1: a win. They want at home today to Mississippi State.

161
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:03,840
Speaker 1: That's a big win for them. They probably see that

162
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:06,920
Speaker 1: game in Norman as their chance to make the NCAA tournament,

163
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 1: so we gotta win. I think that game Wednesday becomes

164
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 1: very important. Have to beat LSU at home, and then

165
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:17,319
Speaker 1: you know, if we could steal one of Missouri and Auburn,

166
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:19,679
Speaker 1: that'd be great. But the next big thing is to

167
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 1: go win a road game, and we we haven't looked

168
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:25,960
Speaker 1: great on the road. I know we won in Knoxville,

169
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:29,440
Speaker 1: but we lost to not you know, an average Georgia team,

170
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 1: an average Vandy team, an average to bad Texas team. Uh,

171
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 1: we're gonna have to go get one of these on

172
00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:39,200
Speaker 1: the road, and I think Wednesday night is the one

173
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:41,200
Speaker 1: that we gotta find a way to get. Eight five

174
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,959
Speaker 1: nine two eight ho twenty two eighty seven. We're gonna

175
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:48,559
Speaker 1: take your calls a disappointing loss. Not so much in

176
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,720
Speaker 1: the result. I thought we were gonna lose, But it

177
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,520
Speaker 1: oddly was a frustrating game to me, probably because of

178
00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:56,679
Speaker 1: the start. When you get up twenty to nine, you think,

179
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 1: hey man, this may come down to the end, and

180
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:01,600
Speaker 1: by the end the first half, it just didn't feel

181
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,880
Speaker 1: like we had what it takes to uh to compete

182
00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:07,120
Speaker 1: to the end. Eight five nine two eight oh twenty

183
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:10,839
Speaker 1: two eighty seven. One more thing, Billy that ref that

184
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:13,199
Speaker 1: followed Mark Pope down the sidelines.

185
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:14,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, what was that?

186
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 1: What a joke? There are very few people in this

187
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:24,640
Speaker 1: world that take themselves more seriously than college basketball officials,

188
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:28,840
Speaker 1: and the he should be fined that referee. Any referee

189
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:32,880
Speaker 1: that follows a coach staring at him, you are asking

190
00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 1: to try to cause in confrontation, which is the exact

191
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:39,240
Speaker 1: opposite thing that a referee should do. And Mark Pope,

192
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 1: of all coaches, is about the least yelling one I've seen.

193
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:44,960
Speaker 1: And when you're following him kind of daring him to

194
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:48,600
Speaker 1: talk to you, you are on an ego trip. And

195
00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 1: that referee was completely on an ego trip. He ended

196
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:53,679
Speaker 1: up not giving Mark a technical, but he wanted to.

197
00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:59,119
Speaker 1: And I hate when referees do that. College basketball referees,

198
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,000
Speaker 1: not all of them, but most of them are the

199
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:08,560
Speaker 1: most egotistical power trip people in sports. I'm serious, Like,

200
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:10,720
Speaker 1: now you meet them off the court, most of them

201
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:13,480
Speaker 1: are very nice, but they get on that court, and

202
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:16,000
Speaker 1: part of it is they take too much abuse from coaches.

203
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,760
Speaker 1: Coaches yell at them too much, but that doesn't give

204
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:22,080
Speaker 1: them like they act like they're kings of the world

205
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:25,679
Speaker 1: sometimes and you saw that with that guy tonight eight

206
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:28,319
Speaker 1: five nine, two, eight oh twenty two eighty seven. We'll

207
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 1: take a break and be right back. It's a Local

208
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:33,560
Speaker 1: toylet Dealers KSR Postgame Show walk I'm back. It is

209
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,720
Speaker 1: the Local Toy Dealers KSR Postgame Show eight five' nine

210
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 1: two eight oh twenty two eighty seven. The text machine

211
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:42,360
Speaker 1: is seven seven two seven seven four five two five

212
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:46,559
Speaker 1: four uh one person rights, Matt. I'm tired of these refs.

213
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:50,559
Speaker 1: They cheat. Tonight we had the cheating and the cheatingest

214
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:54,200
Speaker 1: ass refs we've ever had. I don't know if i'd

215
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:57,960
Speaker 1: say that, but I don't think they cheat. I think

216
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:02,959
Speaker 1: they're human beings and they're predispositions or their temperament comes

217
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 1: into play. Uh. You know, I didn't like the way

218
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,040
Speaker 1: the game was called in the second half. I thought

219
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:11,840
Speaker 1: we were at the bad end of the whistle in

220
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 1: the second half. I didn't think though it would have

221
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 1: changed the outcome. But you know, I mean, Travis Perry

222
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 1: got fouled on his three, they didn't call it. Then

223
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 1: I thought the the Alabama guy did not get fouled. Seers.

224
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 1: I think he did get fouled. But I don't know

225
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 1: how you call one and not the other. I don't

226
00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,600
Speaker 1: to me, you you either call him both or you

227
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:36,199
Speaker 1: call neither of them. Things like that, you know, that

228
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:40,440
Speaker 1: inconsistency as a fan what drives me crazy. But I'm

229
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,319
Speaker 1: more con I mean, people make mistakes. My concern is

230
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:45,800
Speaker 1: about the ego of officials. And we saw that tonight.

231
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 1: That was that ogles me who followed Pope. I don't

232
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:52,840
Speaker 1: know I was that whoever it was that dude, that's

233
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,400
Speaker 1: he should be fine. I really believe that that that

234
00:12:55,400 --> 00:13:00,320
Speaker 1: that officials just should not do that when person right, Matt,

235
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,040
Speaker 1: do you think at our best we're just not as

236
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 1: good as Alabama? No? I think Alabama is a notch

237
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:11,480
Speaker 1: above us, even at our best. I do think we

238
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 1: could beat them in an individual game. We almost beat

239
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,320
Speaker 1: them in RUP. I think if we end up getting

240
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 1: everybody everybody back and we were to play them in

241
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 1: the SEC tournament, I think we could win. I do

242
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:27,440
Speaker 1: think their best is better than our best. But uh,

243
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:30,880
Speaker 1: but that's okay. I mean, I think there's an I

244
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,480
Speaker 1: think Auburn and Duke are the best two teams. Then

245
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 1: I think you've got a group right behind that that

246
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:41,439
Speaker 1: is next, which is probably like Alabama, Florida and Houston.

247
00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:44,680
Speaker 1: And then I think there's probably a group of twelve

248
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,920
Speaker 1: right below that, and we're one of those, and we

249
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:52,960
Speaker 1: beat Florida, we beat Duke. We've lost Alabama twice, so

250
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 1: in those games, I think we have a chance to

251
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:57,800
Speaker 1: beat any of them. But we also can be beaten

252
00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:01,720
Speaker 1: by people that aren't very good, and that's that's what's

253
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 1: frustrating about this team. But remember we said this before

254
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 1: the season. This is how Mark was at. This is

255
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:13,280
Speaker 1: how Mark's teams were at BYU. They beat anybody, they

256
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:15,640
Speaker 1: can lose anybody. That's just how they were. I don't

257
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 1: know if he'll be like that his whole time here,

258
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:21,240
Speaker 1: but that's how he was there. So it may be

259
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:25,760
Speaker 1: kind of there may be more inconsistency than maybe sometimes

260
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,960
Speaker 1: we're used to. All Right, who's up first, Mark, Mark?

261
00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 3: Go ahead, Mark, Hi, I've got something both positive and negative.

262
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:35,040
Speaker 3: What would you want first?

263
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:37,840
Speaker 1: Well, start with the positive.

264
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 3: Positive. This game was very encouraging to me because with

265
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:48,800
Speaker 3: the refereeing, if we get some honest, competent refs in

266
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,560
Speaker 3: any game in the tournaments, I think we've got a

267
00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 3: great shot.

268
00:14:54,360 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 1: But we weren't gonna win tonight either way. I mean real,

269
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:04,040
Speaker 1: we lost by thirteen, all right, So we didn't lose

270
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 1: because of a riff. I mean, let's just be real.

271
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:08,920
Speaker 1: We didn't. We didn't lose because of.

272
00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 4: A riff, Okay, I mean, do you disagree with that moment? Well,

273
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:19,320
Speaker 4: I know it affects momentum.

274
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 1: And so we lost by thirteen, and we were lost.

275
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 1: We were losing most of the game after the beginning.

276
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 1: So I want to I want to be able to

277
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,040
Speaker 1: be critical, but we also have to be fair and

278
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 1: we can't just act like you know, it was a

279
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:36,920
Speaker 1: call here or a call there. We were down double

280
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:39,280
Speaker 1: digits almost all of the second half.

281
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:44,320
Speaker 3: I agree with you on that. I just see it

282
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:48,280
Speaker 3: as a factor, not a big one, but the bad is.

283
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:51,600
Speaker 3: And this is even in our big win over Dandy.

284
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 3: There are so many lazy passes just drive me absolutely eight.

285
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 1: I agree with you. I mean, we do have some.

286
00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:05,640
Speaker 1: We do make lazy passes. I think sometimes when the

287
00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:09,720
Speaker 1: pressure comes, there comes a point where we uh, you know,

288
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:11,640
Speaker 1: we we we I agree. I think that's the way

289
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:16,840
Speaker 1: you put it. We do have lazy passes. Thank you

290
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:20,640
Speaker 1: appreciate the call. There you go, he made he makes

291
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 1: a statement, and then that's what are we going to say?

292
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:24,160
Speaker 2: I was just gonna say I think Oway had a

293
00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:27,120
Speaker 2: couple of those lazy passes in the second half. Especially.

294
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:30,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, his mind was not in it in the second half,

295
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,280
Speaker 1: and I don't really know why. I think I think

296
00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:34,760
Speaker 1: he got those two fouls back to back. I think

297
00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:38,000
Speaker 1: he thought they were both bad calls, and I think

298
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:39,800
Speaker 1: it made him. I think I think it probably took

299
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 1: him mentally out of the game. Honestly, who's next, Mitch, Mitch,

300
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:46,760
Speaker 1: go ahead, Mitch Hi.

301
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 5: The The officiating was bad tonight, but the announcing was

302
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:55,200
Speaker 5: even worse. Jimmy Dykes and Karl Ravich are the worst

303
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:59,280
Speaker 5: announcing duo that ESPN has to offer. Karl Ravich thinks

304
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:02,520
Speaker 5: it is Sunday Baseball. He has no idea what's going on.

305
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:06,480
Speaker 5: And Jimmy Dice can do nothing but stupid alliterations and gimmicks.

306
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:09,440
Speaker 6: That's all he is. Jimmy's jet rim run paint touch,

307
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:11,600
Speaker 6: that's all he's got. I am so sick of it.

308
00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:14,200
Speaker 6: We have to find better announcers.

309
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:16,600
Speaker 1: We've gotten him a lot. So you're not a You're

310
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:17,840
Speaker 1: not a You're not a fan.

311
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:23,280
Speaker 6: No, this the guy doing Arkansas game, John Schiffern. He

312
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:26,840
Speaker 6: is fantastic. He brings the juice, He understands the flow

313
00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:30,399
Speaker 6: of the game. Carl Raviitch at multiple points said the

314
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:32,959
Speaker 6: wrong thing on the broadcast. At one point, we were

315
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:36,000
Speaker 6: diving for a loose ball and they called it. They

316
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,920
Speaker 6: called a time out and he said, oh, Possessionary to

317
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:42,399
Speaker 6: Kentucky like he's on the floor, supposed to be calling

318
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,320
Speaker 6: the game and he has no idea what's going on.

319
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:47,600
Speaker 6: It's every single time they they're the worst.

320
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 1: All right, anything else? Uh No, that's that's fine. I understand, Okay,

321
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 1: I appreciate the call. We do get Jimmy Dikes a lot.

322
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,480
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, there have been years where it

323
00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,400
Speaker 1: was Tom Hard and Jimmy Diykes. It's been Karl Ravich

324
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:05,760
Speaker 1: a lot. This year, we do give him a lot.

325
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,119
Speaker 1: I don't mind him. I think what I do like

326
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 1: about Jimmy Diykes is I think he knows Kentucky's team

327
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:15,199
Speaker 1: very well. It's frustrating when you get announcers that clearly

328
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:18,240
Speaker 1: don't know your team, and I think he does. But

329
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:20,879
Speaker 1: you know, there's a lot of gimmicky stuff with Jimmy,

330
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,159
Speaker 1: and I think some people don't enjoy that. He doesn't

331
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:26,000
Speaker 1: bother me. I think there are worse guys. I liked

332
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:30,720
Speaker 1: hearing Dick vital Yeah, yeah, I mean I feel like

333
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:32,480
Speaker 1: to me. His voice gave out a little bit as

334
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 1: the game went on, but just you know, I like him.

335
00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 1: Dick's like, he's been doing this for forty some years,

336
00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:43,720
Speaker 1: and I think, you know, I think there's something to

337
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:45,960
Speaker 1: be said for him still going out there and doing it,

338
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,480
Speaker 1: and he's still he knows the game. And so I

339
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 1: think having him as a third person on one game

340
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:53,960
Speaker 1: a week, I think that's a good role for him.

341
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:55,920
Speaker 1: And I thought I thought it was nice to get

342
00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:59,680
Speaker 1: to hear him. Listen. He's the kind of the voice

343
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:00,199
Speaker 1: of my you.

344
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:01,840
Speaker 2: So who's next, Tyler?

345
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:03,520
Speaker 1: Tyler? Go ahead, Tyler?

346
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:05,960
Speaker 7: What's going on?

347
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 2: Matt?

348
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:10,120
Speaker 7: I'll tell you man, every time, right before Kentucky game,

349
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:13,080
Speaker 7: doesn't matter who the opponent, I tell myself, I'm gonna

350
00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:18,280
Speaker 7: be calm, cool and what you mean exact opposite. So,

351
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,439
Speaker 7: first of all, going back to the last caller, you

352
00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,000
Speaker 7: don't want to deal with the announcers, sink up, Tom

353
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:24,480
Speaker 7: Leach and Goose Gibbons.

354
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:27,520
Speaker 1: It's easier to do now if you I mean, like

355
00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:31,960
Speaker 1: now in the world of DVR and UH and all that.

356
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:38,199
Speaker 1: Like you know, it's well, I guess actually, so you

357
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:39,840
Speaker 1: have to live that. The way to do it is

358
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,440
Speaker 1: to listen on stream and then sync up your TVs

359
00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:44,679
Speaker 1: if people haven't done it. So but I agree with you.

360
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:47,200
Speaker 1: I mean Tom and Jack I think are a great duo.

361
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:50,080
Speaker 7: Oh it just it makes the game better.

362
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:50,480
Speaker 8: You get it.

363
00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:52,600
Speaker 7: It takes a little bit of a little bit of

364
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 7: an effort, but it's worth it. And then the only

365
00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:57,640
Speaker 7: other point I have is, man, I call me crazy,

366
00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:00,600
Speaker 7: but we only shot twenty six three balls. And I

367
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:04,280
Speaker 7: get that they were pounding our guys, but we don't shoot.

368
00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:06,679
Speaker 7: To me, we don't shoot the three ball enough. And

369
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:08,440
Speaker 7: the only way we were going to win the night

370
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:10,919
Speaker 7: is shooting the three ball and making it. And I

371
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:13,119
Speaker 7: feel like I know Travis Perry was one first seven,

372
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:15,840
Speaker 7: but like I don't shoot.

373
00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:20,320
Speaker 1: Keep shooting. Kobe Braya passed up open shots, Perry passed.

374
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:23,080
Speaker 1: There was that one possession where Perry passed up one,

375
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,800
Speaker 1: Braya passed up two, and we ended up with Amary

376
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:29,119
Speaker 1: Williams throwing one at the buzzer, like shoot it. Like

377
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:33,360
Speaker 1: I've said this over and over, but if it is Brea, Perry,

378
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:39,000
Speaker 1: almanor car you know Robinson when he's healthy, like I

379
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:41,720
Speaker 1: know Bar, if you meant shoot it, if you miss it,

380
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:44,119
Speaker 1: you miss it. Travis Perry was one for seven, but

381
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:47,120
Speaker 1: six of those shots were good. One of them was bad,

382
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,480
Speaker 1: but six of them were good. And I would say

383
00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:52,119
Speaker 1: to you keep shooting it, son, because there are a

384
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:54,879
Speaker 1: lot of shots we take that are not gonna be

385
00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:57,520
Speaker 1: better than Travis Perry or someone else open for three,

386
00:20:57,600 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 1: shoot it.

387
00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:01,680
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, I don't know what play it was. It

388
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:05,280
Speaker 7: was in the second half, but I think Andrew Carr

389
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,439
Speaker 7: was open, but Brailla was even more open, and he

390
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 7: had the ball and he hesitated. I literally, Ice screamed

391
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:11,160
Speaker 7: to shoot the ball, and I.

392
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:14,880
Speaker 1: Was I'm with you, and like, and some guys need

393
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:17,840
Speaker 1: to know. I mean, the most frustrating player, I appreciate

394
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:21,520
Speaker 1: the call of the game. For me, the most frustrating

395
00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:23,520
Speaker 1: play is when Brandon Garrison got that rebound and tried

396
00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:26,439
Speaker 1: to dribble coast to come. What are you doing? Kid?

397
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:28,480
Speaker 1: What are you doing? I love you, but what are

398
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:31,639
Speaker 1: you doing? There is almost no player on the team

399
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:34,359
Speaker 1: that we have that's good enough to go coast to coast.

400
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:39,320
Speaker 1: Maybe lamartt Butler, maybe oh Way, but Garrison pass Amari

401
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:42,600
Speaker 1: did the same thing. Pass you guys, I mean, like,

402
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:47,120
Speaker 1: what what are you thinking when that drives me crazy.

403
00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:49,879
Speaker 1: When especially he had two guys ahead of him. It

404
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:51,680
Speaker 1: wasn't like he was at the front of the thing.

405
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 1: He had two guys in front of him. He did

406
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:56,040
Speaker 1: not pass it, and then he didn't even come close

407
00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:59,600
Speaker 1: to making the layup. It's like, come on, guys, like,

408
00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:03,600
Speaker 1: just let's take good shots. And when the season's over.

409
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,040
Speaker 1: When I interview Pope at some point during after the

410
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,960
Speaker 1: season's over, which I'm sure I will, probably my first

411
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:11,639
Speaker 1: question is gonna be to him. Like you said in

412
00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:14,120
Speaker 1: the preseason, we need to shoot thirty five threes a game.

413
00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:17,280
Speaker 1: We shoot like twenty five to twenty seven every game.

414
00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 1: Why why don't we shoot more of them? Because I

415
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:24,240
Speaker 1: don't really understand it. I don't understand why we don't

416
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:29,439
Speaker 1: shoot more threes because I just if we take thirty

417
00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:32,760
Speaker 1: five instead of twenty seven, we're probably gonna hit two

418
00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:34,639
Speaker 1: or three more, and all of a sudden, it's a

419
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:37,720
Speaker 1: four point game, five point game, rather than thirteen point game.

420
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:42,320
Speaker 1: Take more threes. That's what we're good at, especially now

421
00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:45,480
Speaker 1: that we have a depleted roster. So I just don't

422
00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:48,840
Speaker 1: get it. Who's next? Hunter, Hunter, Go ahead? Hunter?

423
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:55,400
Speaker 9: Matt Billy Hold a night doing good. Yeah, I got

424
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:58,080
Speaker 9: three points for you. The first one we like. The

425
00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:01,800
Speaker 9: reality is we weren't winning that game. Amari wasn't bouncing

426
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 9: off his foot or doing soft passes. Even if we

427
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:07,479
Speaker 9: were hitting our shots, even if we could guard Mark series,

428
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:10,240
Speaker 9: the officiating was just terrible, and.

429
00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:11,879
Speaker 1: You guys got to say, I mean, you do have

430
00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:14,960
Speaker 1: to stop. Do you really believe I mean, I'm not trying. Look,

431
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:16,840
Speaker 1: I think the officiating was bad too, and I'm going

432
00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:19,640
Speaker 1: to say it, but you can't really believe we were

433
00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:21,840
Speaker 1: gonna win that game if it was called one hundred

434
00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,520
Speaker 1: percent down the middle. We lost by thirteen. Oh, we

435
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:27,000
Speaker 1: had we had thirteen. Let me just say, we had

436
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:30,320
Speaker 1: thirteen steals. That's the most steals we have all year.

437
00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:34,640
Speaker 1: We had thirteen steals. Kobe Bray had twenty, Mari Williams

438
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:37,400
Speaker 1: had seventeen, Travis Perry had ten. We had a lot

439
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:39,679
Speaker 1: of guys play kind of above their heads and we

440
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:42,680
Speaker 1: still lost by thirteen. Do you really think we would

441
00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:44,520
Speaker 1: have won if the officiating was better?

442
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:46,440
Speaker 10: No?

443
00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:47,720
Speaker 9: And that's why I said that.

444
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:48,440
Speaker 10: No.

445
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 9: I think if shots, even if we were able to

446
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:54,520
Speaker 9: guard Mark series, even if we Amari wasn't turning the

447
00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:59,120
Speaker 9: ball over every three possessions. The officiating just wasn't there

448
00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:01,679
Speaker 9: for us. Like that's reality, is like they so you.

449
00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:04,199
Speaker 1: Are saying, wait a minute, you are saying that we

450
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:05,720
Speaker 1: lost because of the officiating.

451
00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:09,639
Speaker 9: I'm saying it's a reason. It's not the reason we

452
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,520
Speaker 9: can't shoot. We couldn't. We couldn't hit our shots. That's

453
00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 9: the reality. That's why we lost. And then the second

454
00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:20,040
Speaker 9: point the t is the TV. I mean, I wasn't

455
00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:21,760
Speaker 9: a big fan of the TV review. I'm gonna have

456
00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:23,320
Speaker 9: to listen to the radio the rest of the year.

457
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:25,960
Speaker 9: Like it wasn't the fact of like how they were talking,

458
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:29,199
Speaker 9: it's just they were so dominant on Alabama and like

459
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:32,640
Speaker 9: rarely talk about us. It was like seventy percent Alabama.

460
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:34,320
Speaker 9: I would almost want to say, well.

461
00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:36,679
Speaker 1: Now you know what everybody fit. Now you know what

462
00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:38,959
Speaker 1: every other team in the SEC feels like when we

463
00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 1: play games, because most of the time it's the other

464
00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:43,879
Speaker 1: way around. I mean, I listen, I love us, but

465
00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:47,720
Speaker 1: like that's natural. You know why they did that. Alabama

466
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:50,280
Speaker 1: was winning and they're better than we are. That's why

467
00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:53,200
Speaker 1: the announcers talk more about them. They're winning and they're

468
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:55,560
Speaker 1: better than we are. And we're in, they're at that arena.

469
00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:57,960
Speaker 1: I just want us to be fair. I'm not I mean,

470
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:02,600
Speaker 1: I just be fair. Like most Kentucky plays, the announcers

471
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:06,080
Speaker 1: are talking about Kentucky the whole time. It's just in

472
00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:08,400
Speaker 1: this one, we're playing a better team on the road

473
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:10,199
Speaker 1: and they're beating us. That doesn't happen a lot, so

474
00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:12,960
Speaker 1: that's why they talked about them.

475
00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:15,439
Speaker 9: Yeah, that's a good point, and I don't like to

476
00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:17,919
Speaker 9: being all negative, so I will leave it one positive note.

477
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:22,040
Speaker 9: Seeing how Colin Chandler and how Travis Ferry played, I'm

478
00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:24,080
Speaker 9: not worried about next season all for as far as guards,

479
00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:25,639
Speaker 9: I think they're gonna make a big step and I

480
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:27,359
Speaker 9: think we're gonna be just all right. Thanks guys, have

481
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 9: a great night.

482
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:31,040
Speaker 1: Appreciate it. I was very encouraged by how they both played.

483
00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:33,520
Speaker 1: I'm not ready to go that far. I still think

484
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:37,440
Speaker 1: we're gonna need more guards, but the sort of development

485
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:40,320
Speaker 1: in the last three games of Colin Chandler is really positive.

486
00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:43,520
Speaker 1: And then, like I said, you know, I worry about

487
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:47,840
Speaker 1: how Travis is gonna deal with the athleticism of SEC

488
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:52,520
Speaker 1: guards his whole career, but I love the way he's

489
00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:54,600
Speaker 1: not scared. We had a couple of guys that look

490
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,760
Speaker 1: scared tonight he did not, and I give him a

491
00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:00,240
Speaker 1: lot of credit for that. He's gonna in order to

492
00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:03,000
Speaker 1: be a big time contributor, he's gonna have to make

493
00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:04,919
Speaker 1: up for the fact that he's gonna be limited on

494
00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:09,560
Speaker 1: defense by being an offensive weapon. And you started to

495
00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:11,560
Speaker 1: see a little bit of that tonight. Even though he

496
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:13,920
Speaker 1: didn't shoot the ball great, he took it to the basket.

497
00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:17,040
Speaker 1: He would drive and pass, So there were some good

498
00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:19,159
Speaker 1: signs I thought from him as well. And Chandler's a

499
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:22,920
Speaker 1: good athlete. Chandler probably guarded seers better than anyone else

500
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:26,280
Speaker 1: we had tonight. It's just you know, he didn't end

501
00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:27,359
Speaker 1: up playing huge minutes.

502
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:33,200
Speaker 2: So what's next year, Jasper Johnson, Colin Chandler, Travis Perry Kerrs.

503
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:34,840
Speaker 1: Well, first of all, you have to tell me whether

504
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:38,119
Speaker 1: Kurr's coming back. I kind of think he won't, But

505
00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:41,640
Speaker 1: if he does, that's I think it's Oway first. It's

506
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:47,399
Speaker 1: you know Oway. You know, I kind of wondered if

507
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:51,879
Speaker 1: Chandler would be back, but now maybe maybe he is.

508
00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:56,960
Speaker 1: Perry will be back. I think gotta go get a

509
00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,520
Speaker 1: couple guys in the portal. I mean, Jasper's gonna Jasper

510
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:02,160
Speaker 1: is gonna be good, But I still think they gotta

511
00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 1: get at least one or two guys in the portal.

512
00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:07,200
Speaker 1: I mean, to me, Mark stops offense should have three guards,

513
00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:09,200
Speaker 1: and I think he agrees with that, which means you

514
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:10,400
Speaker 1: need to have a lot of guards on the rest

515
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 1: of We don't have enough guards on the roster this year. Now,

516
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,159
Speaker 1: some of that's because three guys are hurt, but like,

517
00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:19,040
Speaker 1: I don't think you'll see him go guard light going

518
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:22,919
Speaker 1: into next year. Who's next? And they got money, by

519
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,919
Speaker 1: the way to go get I mean they're gonna go

520
00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:28,480
Speaker 1: get one or two big catches in the portal. I'm

521
00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:29,200
Speaker 1: going to assume.

522
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:33,040
Speaker 11: Go ahead, Hey Matt, Billy, what's up?

523
00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:34,280
Speaker 6: What's up?

524
00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:39,359
Speaker 11: I got things first, of which I totally disagree with

525
00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:43,560
Speaker 11: with the rest situation. I think if you go back

526
00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:45,480
Speaker 11: and look at that game in the second half, there

527
00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:48,720
Speaker 11: were some very crucial moments.

528
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 1: Where okay, but do you hear what you're saying? We

529
00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:55,800
Speaker 1: were only down six, we were still down.

530
00:27:57,160 --> 00:27:59,200
Speaker 11: Well, but I mean in a in a basket, in

531
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:02,360
Speaker 11: a basket the ball game six and four, I mean,

532
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:03,080
Speaker 11: what do you did?

533
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:05,199
Speaker 1: You was there a point in this game. Let me

534
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:07,160
Speaker 1: ask you a question, was there was there ever really

535
00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:11,360
Speaker 1: a point in this game you thought we could stop them?

536
00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:11,760
Speaker 2: Yeah?

537
00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:12,920
Speaker 10: We were getting steals.

538
00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:15,920
Speaker 1: I mean we were, we got they scored ninety six points.

539
00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:20,159
Speaker 1: They scored ninety six points with thirteen.

540
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:22,640
Speaker 11: A lot of that came off of a lot of that,

541
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:24,960
Speaker 11: A lot of the end of that came off some

542
00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:26,960
Speaker 11: some slippy last minute three.

543
00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:35,280
Speaker 1: They had fifteen turnovers. We out, well we we basically

544
00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:40,080
Speaker 1: tied them in rebounds. They had fifteen turnovers and shot

545
00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:43,800
Speaker 1: thirty five percent from three and still scored ninety six.

546
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:47,200
Speaker 1: I mean, look, plus.

547
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:52,360
Speaker 11: The lane and falling down, I mean there's I mean,

548
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:55,600
Speaker 11: you can't overcome that. I mean, we're we're essentially playing

549
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:56,600
Speaker 11: six on five.

550
00:28:57,960 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 1: All right, what's the other point?

551
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:05,440
Speaker 11: My other point would be if if if Alabama had

552
00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:10,520
Speaker 11: Sears and Nelson down to injury, what do you think

553
00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:12,520
Speaker 11: it would look like for them to come into Rup.

554
00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:17,320
Speaker 1: Well, they'd probably lose. But I'm not really sure what

555
00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:19,840
Speaker 1: your point is. Because they we played each other full

556
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:21,960
Speaker 1: on and lost in RUP to them.

557
00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:25,880
Speaker 11: I mean, it was a bang bang game. The point,

558
00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:31,040
Speaker 11: and I agree it is Alabama's Alabama is just not

559
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:33,560
Speaker 11: like head and shoulders above us is the point I'm.

560
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:36,440
Speaker 1: Trying to make, all right, Well, I appreciate the call.

561
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:39,400
Speaker 1: I mean they did beat us at RUP, which is

562
00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:44,160
Speaker 1: very hard to do. Uh at least you know normally

563
00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:46,440
Speaker 1: that was a great game. It was a bang bang game.

564
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:48,239
Speaker 1: We could have won it, and I do think we

565
00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:52,560
Speaker 1: can beat them. I also don't think if we're I

566
00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:55,680
Speaker 1: feel like I'm having to be I'm just trying to

567
00:29:55,680 --> 00:30:01,480
Speaker 1: be realistic. We're eighteen and nine, We're we're really good

568
00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:06,400
Speaker 1: and we can beat anybody. But you know, they've got

569
00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:10,000
Speaker 1: basically the same team coming off of Final Four. They're good,

570
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:14,080
Speaker 1: they're good, and they're better than us, but that doesn't

571
00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:17,080
Speaker 1: mean we can't beat them in a given game. I

572
00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:20,160
Speaker 1: think if we are healthy, we can beat anybody in

573
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 1: the country. We also, to be fair, have lost it

574
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:27,360
Speaker 1: home to Arkansas, have lost to Georgia Vandy, and a

575
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:30,240
Speaker 1: Texas team that's down twenty to South Carolina right now

576
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:32,920
Speaker 1: who hasn't won a game the SEC. So we do

577
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:35,360
Speaker 1: need to be balanced. When we're saying what this this

578
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:38,440
Speaker 1: team is eightf I'm nine two twenty two eighty seven.

579
00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:39,160
Speaker 1: What were we gonna say?

580
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:41,000
Speaker 2: I was just going to say that the free throw

581
00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:44,440
Speaker 2: numbers were pretty similar tonight despite all the talk about officials.

582
00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:46,680
Speaker 2: I mean, they shot twenty five, Kentucky shot twenty two.

583
00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:49,800
Speaker 2: But I was as frustrated as the caller on that

584
00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:52,280
Speaker 2: Sears one. Uh, the one where they do the Seriers.

585
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:55,680
Speaker 1: One frustrates me. The Sears and Perry one is frustrating,

586
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:58,080
Speaker 1: but we I totally agree with that. But I think

587
00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:01,240
Speaker 1: we were down eight at that moment because I or

588
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:03,520
Speaker 1: maybe we were down I don't know, we were down

589
00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:06,400
Speaker 1: like eight to eleven something like that. I agree with you.

590
00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:10,880
Speaker 1: There were bad calls, Okay, there were, but I thought

591
00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:13,000
Speaker 1: two of the worst calls were on O Way. But

592
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:17,000
Speaker 1: he was playing terribly, so I'm not sure that having

593
00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:19,320
Speaker 1: him in would have helped us a lot because he

594
00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:21,640
Speaker 1: didn't play well tonight. This was the worst game he's

595
00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:25,920
Speaker 1: had at Kentucky. So you know, my mom just texted

596
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:30,320
Speaker 1: me and said, I seem frustrated. I'm not frustrated. I

597
00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:35,640
Speaker 1: just sure there have been games. There have been games

598
00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:38,960
Speaker 1: where I think we lost because of officials. I think

599
00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:41,920
Speaker 1: we lost to North Carolina in twenty seventeen in part

600
00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:46,520
Speaker 1: because of what happened officiating in that game. All right,

601
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:51,160
Speaker 1: I think there were calls in the twenty fifteen Wisconsin

602
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:57,200
Speaker 1: game that were important when you lose by thirteen. I'm

603
00:31:57,280 --> 00:32:00,560
Speaker 1: just not gonna say it's because of the officials, but

604
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:03,480
Speaker 1: maybe other people are A five nine two eighth twenty

605
00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:05,880
Speaker 1: two eighty seven. We'll take a break, be right back.

606
00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:09,400
Speaker 1: It's the Local Toy Dealers KSR post game show. Welcome back.

607
00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:12,040
Speaker 1: It is the Local Toy Dealers KSR postgame Show. A

608
00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:15,080
Speaker 1: fun nine two eighth, twenty two eighty seven. One person writes,

609
00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:19,120
Speaker 1: Matt Sears knows how to work the whistle. It's annoying,

610
00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:21,800
Speaker 1: but it's also a fact. That's true now that I

611
00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:24,320
Speaker 1: agree with Mark Sears. One of the best players in

612
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:27,160
Speaker 1: the country A getting a whistle he is, and there's

613
00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:30,040
Speaker 1: a skill to that. There is. There is a skill

614
00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:32,360
Speaker 1: to that. It's dearon Fox is really good at that

615
00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:35,520
Speaker 1: at Kentucky. There's eight skill. Go back and watch some

616
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:39,360
Speaker 1: of that game when we beat UCLA in Memphis and

617
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:43,640
Speaker 1: the Sweet sixteen. He plays amazing, but he also draws

618
00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:45,800
Speaker 1: a lot of fouls because he's good at it. He

619
00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:49,400
Speaker 1: knew how to make a move and get a call

620
00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:51,760
Speaker 1: and then hang and right like he's good at it,

621
00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:55,080
Speaker 1: and Sears is great at it. So Sears draws fouls

622
00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:59,160
Speaker 1: that maybe another person wouldn't get, and he's just good

623
00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:02,360
Speaker 1: at it. There's a there's a talent to that. I

624
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:05,280
Speaker 1: don't think it's flopping exactly, but it's like a first

625
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:11,360
Speaker 1: cousin of flopping, Milly. It's like draw contact. You got contact,

626
00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:14,840
Speaker 1: but then like make it really show up.

627
00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:16,920
Speaker 2: Does Kentucky have one of those players?

628
00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:18,960
Speaker 1: I don't think we got one this year. I don't.

629
00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:24,680
Speaker 1: I think Oway doesn't. This group does not like contact.

630
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:28,000
Speaker 1: Trent Noah Is and Colin Chandler oddly seemed like the

631
00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:31,080
Speaker 1: two guys that are okay with it. Our guys don't

632
00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:33,240
Speaker 1: like I mean, there was a play. We ended up

633
00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:36,160
Speaker 1: stopping them on the second shot, so it didn't matter.

634
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:38,040
Speaker 1: But Billy, do you do you remember the play we

635
00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:41,280
Speaker 1: had like four guys reached down for the ball and

636
00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:44,120
Speaker 1: we didn't get out an Alabama dove and they got it. Yeah,

637
00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:47,080
Speaker 1: now they missed their second shot, so it didn't matter.

638
00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:49,800
Speaker 1: But once again we bend down and they get on

639
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:54,240
Speaker 1: the floor, and like our guys, just Kobe Bray doesn't

640
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:58,640
Speaker 1: like contact. Jackson doesn't like contact. Oway doesn't like contact.

641
00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:01,840
Speaker 1: These guys just don't like contact. Even our bigs don't

642
00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:04,840
Speaker 1: like contact, you know, And so we don't draw as

643
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,080
Speaker 1: many fouls, even though, as you made the point, we

644
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:11,239
Speaker 1: did shoot a decent number of free throws. When person writes, Matt,

645
00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:14,680
Speaker 1: what did you think about the USA chant Amari Williams

646
00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 1: don't like it. Didn't like it. You know, everybody can say, oh,

647
00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:21,200
Speaker 1: take a joke. There's a lot of things you could

648
00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:24,560
Speaker 1: say to somebody that might even make you laugh that

649
00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:28,680
Speaker 1: you shouldn't say, Like why are you? I mean, I'm

650
00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:34,560
Speaker 1: all for America, you know, I'm American as anybody, proud American, whatever,

651
00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:36,680
Speaker 1: But like you don't have to be like rude. First

652
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:40,240
Speaker 1: of all, Alabama, you have a player that's from Nigeria.

653
00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:42,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, Nigeria, Like you have a.

654
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:46,240
Speaker 1: Player from Nigeria. But the other thing is like, I

655
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:49,239
Speaker 1: I'm okay with the idea, like I said the other night,

656
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:52,000
Speaker 1: I was okay with the booing with the Canadian thing

657
00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:54,239
Speaker 1: and the Atlantic, but this is like calling out an

658
00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:58,560
Speaker 1: individual person. And I just don't love chanting USA at

659
00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:01,840
Speaker 1: a kid from Britain who is in the USA playing basketball.

660
00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:03,759
Speaker 1: I just don't like it, you know, I mean, am

661
00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:06,520
Speaker 1: I like angry about it. No, I'm not gonna yell

662
00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:09,480
Speaker 1: at him, but I just think it's unnecessary. I think this,

663
00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:12,520
Speaker 1: you know, you gotta be careful because in this it

664
00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:15,279
Speaker 1: starts to drift and people start talking about politics. I mean,

665
00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:17,200
Speaker 1: I said I didn't like it, Billy, and like there

666
00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:19,760
Speaker 1: were ten references to Joe Biden, like that had anything

667
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:23,080
Speaker 1: to do with it. It's just like you don't have

668
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:25,600
Speaker 1: to do that. You can yell at to Mari Williams

669
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:28,960
Speaker 1: for something without going you is for Britain. Yeah, Like

670
00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:31,600
Speaker 1: you don't have to do that. And I think it

671
00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:34,839
Speaker 1: would actually look much worse if he was from like

672
00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:41,040
Speaker 1: Nigeria like their player or in today's world, Mexico. Like

673
00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:43,000
Speaker 1: I just don't like it. You don't need to do that.

674
00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:45,839
Speaker 1: I mean again, I'm not gonna like go yell at

675
00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:48,200
Speaker 1: the people in the student section. I just think it's

676
00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:53,040
Speaker 1: kind of like the most sort of behavior that yell

677
00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:56,480
Speaker 1: something else, you know, make a joke about being from Britain.

678
00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:59,000
Speaker 2: Like, I don't know, it's not a lot of creativity

679
00:35:59,000 --> 00:35:59,960
Speaker 2: in these seccies.

680
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:03,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, yell about tea and crumpets or something.

681
00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:06,600
Speaker 2: I don't know, who's up next, Richard, Richard, go.

682
00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:07,160
Speaker 1: Ahead, Richard.

683
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:11,719
Speaker 12: Hey, So, like you said earlier, we want to be

684
00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:18,520
Speaker 12: fair but responsible. And I think the SEC gets hyped

685
00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:22,680
Speaker 12: up as the best conference in college basketball. Maybe rightly so,

686
00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:24,920
Speaker 12: but I think if they want to do that, they

687
00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:28,600
Speaker 12: need to hold up on their examination. And that means commentators, refs.

688
00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:33,640
Speaker 12: But what people aren't talking about his coaches, NATO's. I

689
00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:36,000
Speaker 12: was at the Alabama game at rough and Natos was

690
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:38,879
Speaker 12: he did not stop talking to the officials. And then

691
00:36:39,080 --> 00:36:42,920
Speaker 12: when we played A and m bus Williams, the most

692
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:47,240
Speaker 12: childish thing I've ever seen. He gets up and yells

693
00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:50,719
Speaker 12: at the ref because Jackson Robins smiled at him, and

694
00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:52,719
Speaker 12: then he tried to do it again, and if he'd

695
00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:55,359
Speaker 12: gotten that again, he would have been ejected. So he's

696
00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:58,200
Speaker 12: trying to get a player, his former player rejected from

697
00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:00,759
Speaker 12: the game. So I think that there is a lack

698
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:03,440
Speaker 12: of character and some of these he coaches that people

699
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:05,399
Speaker 12: don't talk about. It affects the game.

700
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:09,239
Speaker 1: I don't think it's you're right. I think you're right,

701
00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:12,000
Speaker 1: but it's also true of every It's not just SEC.

702
00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:14,719
Speaker 1: I mean I for three years went to Duke games

703
00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:18,239
Speaker 1: and I watched Mike Krzewski, arguably the greatest coach of

704
00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:22,720
Speaker 1: all time, treated referees like they were sub human people.

705
00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:27,680
Speaker 1: And I'm like, why do you do that? Why do you? Well?

706
00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:30,719
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean you you can turn on any game,

707
00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:34,280
Speaker 1: like I don't even know who's playing right now, right now, Cows.

708
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:37,960
Speaker 1: I'm sure Cow's doing it. Like there's just an accepted level.

709
00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:42,640
Speaker 1: There's an accepted level of treatment of referees by coaches

710
00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:43,560
Speaker 1: that I don't understand.

711
00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:45,759
Speaker 12: Well, So I guess I would just say this. When

712
00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:48,960
Speaker 12: Coach k retired, we had a golden opportunity to hit

713
00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:52,359
Speaker 12: a reset on the sliminess. I think it's past. You've

714
00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:55,640
Speaker 12: got great young coaches like Pope, got great old coaches

715
00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:58,279
Speaker 12: like Patino, who you know, Katino has his own thing.

716
00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:01,000
Speaker 12: But I like the way his team plays.

717
00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:01,799
Speaker 1: But he.

718
00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:07,000
Speaker 12: Yelled the rest, but I mean justifiedly. So I'm not

719
00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:08,920
Speaker 12: mad at I'm not mad at NATO's for yelling at

720
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:12,960
Speaker 12: rest when they're wrong. I'm yelling at It's about, you know,

721
00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:15,960
Speaker 12: him trying to get the rest to be wrong. You know,

722
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:17,960
Speaker 12: that's a completely different thing. And that's what he does.

723
00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 12: That's what he did when he was at REP. That's

724
00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:22,759
Speaker 12: what he did tonight. There was a video of I

725
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:26,840
Speaker 12: think the foul on sears Uh where the ref looked

726
00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:31,040
Speaker 12: to NATO's Natos gets up and waves his fist and

727
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:34,040
Speaker 12: then the ref calls foul like a second or two

728
00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:37,000
Speaker 12: after the shot, and he's looking at I mean, even

729
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:39,279
Speaker 12: if that's not him looking for the approval to call

730
00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:40,960
Speaker 12: a foul, it's a terrible look.

731
00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:44,080
Speaker 13: You know, I feel I got you.

732
00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:47,000
Speaker 1: I got you, I got your point that you know

733
00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:52,240
Speaker 1: I got it. By the way, tomorrow is tomorrow? Tomorrow

Speaker 2: It's on l s U. I believe tomorrow, But I'm

00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:19,160
Speaker 1: So why are we doing senior Night?

744
00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:25,360
Speaker 2: Well, the game versus Tennessee is pandemonium night.

745
00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:28,560

Speaker 1: I heard of that. Isn't that odd? Well, it's gonna

749
00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:40,880
Speaker 1: be an awesome environment tomorrow. I'm definitely gonna be watching

750
00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:44,960
Speaker 1: uh Mulkey coming in. I think we got we can

751
00:39:44,960 --> 00:39:47,399
Speaker 1: beat LSU. I don't know if we will, but we can.

752
00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:51,880
Speaker 1: I think that's gonna be a great atmosphere. Yeah, Mari Williams,

753
00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:53,920
Speaker 1: by the way, if somebody points out, had four second

754
00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:55,839
Speaker 1: half turnovers, So even though he played really well though,

755
00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:57,960
Speaker 1: that's that's a lot of turnovers in one half.

756
00:39:57,960 --> 00:40:00,080
Speaker 2: Who's next, Michael, Michael.

757
00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:03,760
Speaker 14: Going, Hey Matt, first time a long time?

758
00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:05,000
Speaker 1: Who what what's up?

759
00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:08,720
Speaker 14: I'm calling? I'm in Roe, North Carolina from Burria.

760
00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:09,760
Speaker 1: But real quick.

761
00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:17,440
Speaker 14: When Pope makes his adjustments within fifteen sixteen minutes first half,

762
00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:21,920
Speaker 14: I feel like the whole team just collapse. I feel

763
00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:26,719
Speaker 14: like his starters need to play for and when he

764
00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:31,000
Speaker 14: puts Garson in there, they just it's they fall apart.

765
00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:35,759
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, you have to play some subs, right,

766
00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:38,239
Speaker 1: but I the thing that's bothered me or the like

767
00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:41,120
Speaker 1: line changes now he didn't do as much of that tonight,

768
00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:45,240
Speaker 1: but you're right. I mean we take a huge drop

769
00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:48,360
Speaker 1: when we get to the subs. We just do and I,

770
00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:50,759
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know what you do about that.

771
00:40:50,880 --> 00:40:53,280
Speaker 1: I will say this, you're gonna have to play subs.

772
00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:56,520
Speaker 1: But I look and I see Amari Williams twenty seven minutes,

773
00:40:57,239 --> 00:41:02,080
Speaker 1: and I think, why, why is that not like thirty three.

774
00:41:02,360 --> 00:41:06,760
Speaker 14: Right when they were when they were up thirty to twelve,

775
00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:09,960
Speaker 14: I felt thirty eighteen. They just I feel like they

776
00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:11,120
Speaker 14: just I mean.

777
00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:13,240
Speaker 1: Well, that's you're right, that's when we did the second

778
00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:17,400
Speaker 1: You're exactly right. So that was the second wave of subs,

779
00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:19,719
Speaker 1: and you are right. The game changed during that one.

780
00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:21,480
Speaker 1: I think you're exactly right about And that was a

781
00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:25,400
Speaker 1: really bad defensive lineup too. It was like Almanor Perry

782
00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:29,480
Speaker 1: Noah Garrison in at the same time. And that's just

783
00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:30,879
Speaker 1: that that lineup can guard.

784
00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:35,640
Speaker 14: I love Pope, but as far as him being an

785
00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:38,840
Speaker 14: analytics guy, I feel like he should keep the starters

786
00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:41,239
Speaker 14: out way more than he needs to be.

787
00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:43,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's a good point. I appreciate the call.

788
00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:47,000
Speaker 1: I had somebody who has been to some Pope practices

789
00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:50,040
Speaker 1: tell me or no, not been to practice, excuse me,

790
00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:51,840
Speaker 1: talk to him. They were in town a couple of

791
00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:56,360
Speaker 1: weeks ago, and he said to them he's very big

792
00:41:56,400 --> 00:42:01,720
Speaker 1: on hyper efficiency. Basically, how any minutes can I play

793
00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:05,319
Speaker 1: my guy to get him at one hundred percent capacity

794
00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:09,600
Speaker 1: for the longest time? And that's all nice, And I'm

795
00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:12,560
Speaker 1: sure he has many more numbers than I do about it.

796
00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:17,719
Speaker 1: But I'd rather have eighty percent of Marii Williams than

797
00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:20,839
Speaker 1: one hundred percent Brandon Garrison right now. And I don't

798
00:42:20,840 --> 00:42:22,960
Speaker 1: say that to be mean to Brandon Garrison. It's just

799
00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:28,560
Speaker 1: a fact. I think eighty percent Brandon Garrison is gonna

800
00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:32,120
Speaker 1: give us more success or eighty percent of Mary Williams

801
00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:33,400
Speaker 1: than one hundred percent Brandon Garrison.

802
00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:35,600
Speaker 2: But playing the bench has developed some guys, I mean,

803
00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:38,200
Speaker 2: like Colin Chandler. I didn't it is, but like, all.

804
00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:40,040
Speaker 1: Right, so look at let's look at the minutes here.

805
00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:44,200
Speaker 1: So I would say you had Colin Chandler thirteen minutes,

806
00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:48,640
Speaker 1: Fine with that, almanor ten minutes, fine with that. But

807
00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:52,120
Speaker 1: maybe Garrison should be eight instead of thirteen. Maybe Noah

808
00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:56,719
Speaker 1: should be like fifteen instead of twenty three. Right, I'm

809
00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:59,960
Speaker 1: not saying don't play him, but we didn't have one

810
00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:04,000
Speaker 1: player play thirty minutes. They had two guys play thirty.

811
00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:05,200
Speaker 2: Oh, brand played thirty five?

812
00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:09,960
Speaker 1: Yeah we had well, sorry, we had we had one one. Yeah,

813
00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:13,560
Speaker 1: the rest of them. I just and if Brea can

814
00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:16,200
Speaker 1: play thirty five, then why can't these other guys?

815
00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:18,040
Speaker 2: Pope. It's not like Bray act.

816
00:43:18,719 --> 00:43:20,960
Speaker 1: It's not like Bray is in the greatest shape. Yeah,

817
00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:23,560
Speaker 1: you know, so, I mean he's in good shape, but

818
00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:25,400
Speaker 1: I mean it's not like he's a crazy good athlete.

819
00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:28,000
Speaker 1: Like I feel like if Breya can play that many minutes,

820
00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:30,760
Speaker 1: then so can can Amari? Oh way, I think probably

821
00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:31,120
Speaker 1: would have.

822
00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:32,719
Speaker 2: He was just in pawn Well, like you said, Carr

823
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:34,960
Speaker 2: and back issues, he still played twenty nine.

824
00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:38,960
Speaker 1: Exactly, exactly. Yeah, I mean, if you play car twenty nine,

825
00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:42,400
Speaker 1: how's a Mario only playing twenty seven? I mean Carl

826
00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:44,960
Speaker 1: Carr was only playing fourteen a week ago?

827
00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:45,640
Speaker 8: You know.

828
00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:47,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, who's next? Cathead?

829
00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:48,880
Speaker 1: Cathead?

830
00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:54,160
Speaker 15: Go ahead, Hey guys, what's going on? Hey got a

831
00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:57,600
Speaker 15: I got a statement and a couple of questions. Okay,

832
00:43:57,640 --> 00:43:59,520
Speaker 15: first of all, let's get a little let's get a

833
00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:02,040
Speaker 15: little rest one who so.

834
00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:06,040
Speaker 1: There you goo? Uh?

835
00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:10,000
Speaker 15: Our freshmen, they're not gonna get the calls, right, I mean,

836
00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:15,280
Speaker 15: this is it's not whether bad calls this that they

837
00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:18,640
Speaker 15: they've not got that status hip sure that they're sure

838
00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:21,120
Speaker 15: gonna get the calls. They're not gonna get the calls,

839
00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:24,880
Speaker 15: and they're gonna get the caw calls on them. Uh

840
00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:29,840
Speaker 15: you know. So that's my statement. My question is we're

841
00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:34,000
Speaker 15: we're preparing to go to Nashville again for the SEC tournament.

842
00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:35,799
Speaker 15: Are we gonna win the game?

843
00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:38,480
Speaker 11: Well?

844
00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:45,320
Speaker 15: And and and and and where is Alice Bluegram playing?

845
00:44:46,840 --> 00:44:49,120
Speaker 1: I will get you the answer to the next second question.

846
00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:50,680
Speaker 1: I don't know it off the top of my head.

847
00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:54,680
Speaker 1: On the first question, Uh yeah, I think we First

848
00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:56,960
Speaker 1: of all, we play Wednesday, we would play South Carolina.

849
00:44:57,000 --> 00:44:58,839
Speaker 1: I think we'll win that, although they're about to win

850
00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:01,560
Speaker 1: their first game as I predicted Billy Friday on that

851
00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:06,600
Speaker 1: cancer And I think we win on Thursday if we

852
00:45:06,680 --> 00:45:09,680
Speaker 1: start then either. So, yes, I do think we win,

853
00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:12,920
Speaker 1: uh win one. Now do I think it looks like

854
00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:15,160
Speaker 1: we may have to play Auburn on Friday? One? Do

855
00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:20,120
Speaker 1: I think we win that? I don't know. I don't

856
00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:23,000
Speaker 1: know about that. Yeah, I don't know about that. We'll see.

857
00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:27,840
Speaker 15: Yeah, you know, we are in battle like we we

858
00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:31,360
Speaker 15: got very few players. Now, like we fail out like

859
00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:33,920
Speaker 15: we did tonight we have no more bodies.

860
00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:37,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, we don't. You're right, You're exactly right. I appreciate

861
00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:41,359
Speaker 1: the call. I do think, though, you know, when we

862
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:44,239
Speaker 1: get into sc or into the NCAA tournament, I think

863
00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:46,080
Speaker 1: it's gonna be nice, Billy, to not play some of

864
00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:50,800
Speaker 1: these teams anymore. Like everybody's so good, it's nice to

865
00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:54,400
Speaker 1: it's gonna be nice to play play somebody else. I

866
00:45:54,440 --> 00:45:57,160
Speaker 1: have to say. I don't know very few people listening

867
00:45:57,160 --> 00:45:58,880
Speaker 1: to this will care about this, But Billy, you know

868
00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:03,240
Speaker 1: the rest in ovw the wrestlers. I like the outrunners,

869
00:46:03,640 --> 00:46:05,759
Speaker 1: you know, the two guys that spin around right right,

870
00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:11,640
Speaker 1: uh Omaha. The Omaha College basketball team brought them in

871
00:46:12,600 --> 00:46:15,640
Speaker 1: to give the pregame pump up speech to their team,

872
00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:20,360
Speaker 1: and I and I wish you could see the outfits

873
00:46:20,360 --> 00:46:25,800
Speaker 1: they're wearings. Of course came yes, and it included this line,

874
00:46:25,920 --> 00:46:27,960
Speaker 1: which I love. First of all, the name of their speech,

875
00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:31,560
Speaker 1: Billy was called, nothing succeeds like success.

876
00:46:32,239 --> 00:46:37,160
Speaker 16: Okay, that's the thing they say things like that, And

877
00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:40,719
Speaker 16: then it started with this line, if you're anything like me,

878
00:46:41,640 --> 00:46:44,520
Speaker 16: and I know I am, you woke up this morning

879
00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:45,200
Speaker 16: being awake.

880
00:46:46,840 --> 00:46:51,279
Speaker 2: Oh wow, talk about motivational before I how motivational is

881
00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:52,840
Speaker 2: that I'm awake.

882
00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:54,840
Speaker 1: You need to look at that vine. You need to

883
00:46:54,880 --> 00:46:55,480
Speaker 1: look up there.

884
00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:56,200
Speaker 2: Is that online?

885
00:46:56,760 --> 00:46:59,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's I'll send you the picture of It's great.

886
00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:00,680
Speaker 1: All right, let's do one. We'll take a break.

887
00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:03,120
Speaker 2: Who's next, Michael, Michael?

888
00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:03,920
Speaker 1: Go ahead, Michael.

889
00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:10,680
Speaker 17: He was so fellaws. I'm kind of building off of

890
00:47:10,719 --> 00:47:14,560
Speaker 17: what the other gentleman, the other Michael said earlier when

891
00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:20,759
Speaker 17: he mentioned the substitutions. I got, I don't understand. You

892
00:47:20,800 --> 00:47:22,759
Speaker 17: can make it make sense for me how it can

893
00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:27,480
Speaker 17: be up thirteen points. He makes these subs, and then

894
00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:32,600
Speaker 17: I think Alabama went on a twenty seven to two run,

895
00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:36,799
Speaker 17: And I'm just trying to understand Pope's thoughts. Why don't

896
00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:40,200
Speaker 17: you call a time out, try to regroup, reput yourselves

897
00:47:40,239 --> 00:47:44,440
Speaker 17: by or your starters back in. They're warmed up. Where

898
00:47:44,440 --> 00:47:47,560
Speaker 17: you're up thirteen? I mean, build You've got your plan

899
00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:49,719
Speaker 17: in Alabama, build a higher lead than that.

900
00:47:51,239 --> 00:47:51,759
Speaker 6: I mean, can you?

901
00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:54,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's gonna be a question. Yeah, I don't know.

902
00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:56,480
Speaker 1: I mean it's gonna be a question I want to

903
00:47:56,520 --> 00:47:58,879
Speaker 1: ask him when the year is over. I mean, there's

904
00:47:58,920 --> 00:48:03,840
Speaker 1: clearly a philosophy behind it. I think the philosophy is

905
00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:05,840
Speaker 1: what I just said a minute ago, which is he

906
00:48:06,360 --> 00:48:09,040
Speaker 1: kind of wants to play the players to get one

907
00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:13,080
Speaker 1: hundred efficiency as much as they can. But I don't know.

908
00:48:13,239 --> 00:48:15,560
Speaker 1: I feel like when there's a big gap between your

909
00:48:15,680 --> 00:48:18,680
Speaker 1: number one and your number two, maybe you can't do

910
00:48:18,760 --> 00:48:19,640
Speaker 1: that quite as much.

911
00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:24,319
Speaker 13: Yeah, but I mean we could have. I'm not I

912
00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:27,319
Speaker 13: do agree with you on the ref side based off

913
00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:29,120
Speaker 13: of us losing. We can't just blame it all on

914
00:48:29,160 --> 00:48:32,120
Speaker 13: the refs. I was getting really ticked off at how

915
00:48:32,160 --> 00:48:35,239
Speaker 13: the rest were calling the game. But it's not just

916
00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:36,920
Speaker 13: the refs. I mean we were up. I mean it

917
00:48:37,080 --> 00:48:38,640
Speaker 13: was I think we got to a point where we

918
00:48:38,640 --> 00:48:41,319
Speaker 13: were down three, we could have tied the game, and

919
00:48:41,360 --> 00:48:44,680
Speaker 13: there was like four or five possessions. We just went empty. Nothing,

920
00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:52,960
Speaker 13: nothing that was right. Yeah, But I do the Wisconsin

921
00:48:53,080 --> 00:48:56,399
Speaker 13: thing you mentioned earlier. I was looking that stuff up

922
00:48:56,400 --> 00:48:59,359
Speaker 13: today thinking about that. I don't even know why they

923
00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:01,560
Speaker 13: came up in but I was just like, man, that

924
00:49:01,640 --> 00:49:05,040
Speaker 13: Wisconsin still just eats at me. But anyways, y'all have

925
00:49:05,040 --> 00:49:05,520
Speaker 13: a good night.

926
00:49:05,920 --> 00:49:08,319
Speaker 1: Appreciate the call. I've always believed that if we beat

927
00:49:08,360 --> 00:49:11,880
Speaker 1: Wisconsin and we won the NCAA tournament that year. I

928
00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:15,560
Speaker 1: think Cal probably retires a couple of years before and

929
00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:19,600
Speaker 1: like Kentucky fans, I mean, he would have it would

930
00:49:19,600 --> 00:49:22,000
Speaker 1: have been the best year in forty years. It would

931
00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:24,719
Speaker 1: be a completely different It'd be interesting to see in

932
00:49:24,760 --> 00:49:29,799
Speaker 1: an alternate universe what the Kentucky world was like if

933
00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:33,960
Speaker 1: we beat Wisconsin, Like it would just be a different world.

934
00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:37,280
Speaker 1: I mean, like we would have Cal. I think nationally

935
00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:39,479
Speaker 1: would be looked at differently, Like the whole thing would

936
00:49:39,480 --> 00:49:42,840
Speaker 1: just be completely different. By the way, it looks like

937
00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:44,000
Speaker 1: Arkansas won, didn't.

938
00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:46,279
Speaker 2: They Yeah, big win for Cal, big win.

939
00:49:46,400 --> 00:49:49,080
Speaker 1: So that probably will get them in the tournament. So

940
00:49:49,120 --> 00:49:51,640
Speaker 1: that is a big win for Cal. That's probably a

941
00:49:51,800 --> 00:49:55,120
Speaker 1: makes the tournament victory for Arkansas. We'll take a break

942
00:49:55,160 --> 00:49:57,960
Speaker 1: A five nine, two, eight oh twenty two eighty seven

943
00:49:58,520 --> 00:50:01,759
Speaker 1: Kats loose to Alabama on the road. Will to our

944
00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:03,840
Speaker 1: final segment right after this. It's a Local Toy Dealers

945
00:50:03,880 --> 00:50:08,120
Speaker 1: KSR postgame show, Welcome Back. It is a Local Toy

946
00:50:08,160 --> 00:50:13,480
Speaker 1: Dealers KSR postgame show. Duke beat Illinois Billy by forty

947
00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:17,400
Speaker 1: five points tonight, forty three, one ten to sixty seven

948
00:50:17,440 --> 00:50:20,480
Speaker 1: on a neutral court. That was the freest money of all.

949
00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:24,600
Speaker 1: Duke does not lose. Duke just does not lose in

950
00:50:24,719 --> 00:50:27,239
Speaker 1: Madison Square Guard. It's like a home game for them.

951
00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:28,360
Speaker 2: Illino is not bad.

952
00:50:28,840 --> 00:50:32,919
Speaker 1: I mean, well, they're forty three points worse worse than Duke.

953
00:50:33,680 --> 00:50:36,960
Speaker 1: Two other things, one of which people may or may

954
00:50:36,960 --> 00:50:38,480
Speaker 1: not care about, the other one may make them mad.

955
00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:41,520
Speaker 1: But I still have to say it because it it's funny.

956
00:50:41,719 --> 00:50:45,160
Speaker 1: First of all, Ellie d la Cruz two at bats today,

957
00:50:45,239 --> 00:50:48,520
Speaker 1: Billy in the spring training game. Two home runs, one

958
00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:50,160
Speaker 1: left handed, one right hand.

959
00:50:50,360 --> 00:50:52,120
Speaker 2: Wow, hot start. It's a good thing.

960
00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:55,839
Speaker 1: That first game, first spring training game. Yes, whoever got

961
00:50:55,840 --> 00:51:00,120
Speaker 1: me that biblehead? That was very nice? And second, your boy,

962
00:51:00,480 --> 00:51:03,359
Speaker 1: you're a hero Elon Musk.

963
00:51:03,200 --> 00:51:04,920
Speaker 2: Oh are you going to say Tom Brady?

964
00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:09,480
Speaker 1: Is that your heroes? Tom Brady one of them? What

965
00:51:09,520 --> 00:51:12,800
Speaker 1: about Elon musk No? Okay, well he I don't know

966
00:51:12,840 --> 00:51:15,200
Speaker 1: if you saw this. He sent an email or his

967
00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:19,239
Speaker 1: little people to every federal employee today that said, by

968
00:51:19,280 --> 00:51:23,480
Speaker 1: Monday night, at midnight, you have to send what you

969
00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:27,279
Speaker 1: did last week and the five things you accomplished, all

970
00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:30,719
Speaker 1: right to every federal employee. I am princes of federal

971
00:51:30,719 --> 00:51:33,440
Speaker 1: and police who got the email. Here's the only problem.

972
00:51:34,080 --> 00:51:36,759
Speaker 1: He sent it from an outside mail server outside of

973
00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:41,960
Speaker 1: the government that's not secured. So now the head of

974
00:51:42,000 --> 00:51:47,760
Speaker 1: the FBI, the Secret Service, the DEA, and the CIA

975
00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:51,560
Speaker 1: has sent out a memo tonight telling their workers please

976
00:51:51,640 --> 00:51:55,640
Speaker 1: do not respond to the email because you may end

977
00:51:55,719 --> 00:51:57,640
Speaker 1: up with security and counterintelligence.

978
00:51:57,680 --> 00:52:03,120
Speaker 2: Oh my god, nice job, Elon, are you gonna send

979
00:52:03,160 --> 00:52:04,879
Speaker 2: me your five things?

980
00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:11,480
Speaker 1: He is the worst, the worst. I mean, did nobody like,

981
00:52:12,120 --> 00:52:14,520
Speaker 1: where's how does he send that to all the government

982
00:52:14,560 --> 00:52:16,600
Speaker 1: workers from an outside email address.

983
00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:19,840
Speaker 2: Well, he's still learning. He's still getting anything.

984
00:52:19,920 --> 00:52:22,960
Speaker 1: But somebody shouldn't be learning. Tokay, never mind, shut up,

985
00:52:22,960 --> 00:52:23,560
Speaker 1: who's next.

986
00:52:25,200 --> 00:52:26,840
Speaker 2: Let's go to Jerry.

987
00:52:27,360 --> 00:52:31,239
Speaker 10: Jerry, Go ahead, Jerry, we're gonna point him out the game.

988
00:52:31,280 --> 00:52:34,840
Speaker 10: I'm just curious to must send those emails to the

989
00:52:34,880 --> 00:52:38,560
Speaker 10: people that supervise the space X contracts. We'll see.

990
00:52:39,320 --> 00:52:40,680
Speaker 1: I know, I don't want to get into all that.

991
00:52:40,719 --> 00:52:43,239
Speaker 1: I just made my point. And now it's Saturday night,

992
00:52:43,360 --> 00:52:45,040
Speaker 1: and then since we lost, I just had to say

993
00:52:45,080 --> 00:52:46,480
Speaker 1: that that. Let's get what's the next? Go ahead?

994
00:52:46,520 --> 00:52:49,720
Speaker 10: Well, you gotta laugh this ship at this stuff.

995
00:52:49,719 --> 00:52:52,360
Speaker 13: Anyway, You can't cuss.

996
00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:54,360
Speaker 10: It's not time I know, I know, I'm sorry, I

997
00:52:54,400 --> 00:52:58,040
Speaker 10: got it all right, I'm sorry. So but as far

998
00:52:58,080 --> 00:53:00,560
Speaker 10: as the game goes, where have we ever gone to

999
00:53:00,640 --> 00:53:03,359
Speaker 10: Alabama and you could probably say Georgia and Auburn as

1000
00:53:03,360 --> 00:53:06,359
Speaker 10: well and gotten a good whistle. We always get bad

1001
00:53:06,360 --> 00:53:09,840
Speaker 10: officiated at Alabama. That's it's baked in the cake. I mean,

1002
00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:11,480
Speaker 10: the biggest reason they lost is they didn't make the

1003
00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:13,880
Speaker 10: plays they needed to be out. That officiating is terrible,

1004
00:53:13,920 --> 00:53:16,040
Speaker 10: but it's always terrible when they played out Alabama.

1005
00:53:16,120 --> 00:53:19,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's look, I'm sure somebody should do a study.

1006
00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:22,040
Speaker 1: Maybe they have. I think the home team always gets

1007
00:53:22,040 --> 00:53:25,359
Speaker 1: a better whistle, especially when the crowd was like that's

1008
00:53:25,400 --> 00:53:28,440
Speaker 1: just my view because it's just it's human nature, like

1009
00:53:28,480 --> 00:53:32,840
Speaker 1: it's human nature that the crowd, like the raft tends

1010
00:53:32,880 --> 00:53:33,840
Speaker 1: to go with the crowd.

1011
00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:39,040
Speaker 10: Well, somebody said that there was a USA that they article.

1012
00:53:39,080 --> 00:53:41,480
Speaker 10: I never saw it, but one of their sports writers

1013
00:53:41,680 --> 00:53:44,800
Speaker 10: City watched several SEC games this year and that the

1014
00:53:44,880 --> 00:53:51,200
Speaker 10: officiating was so overplay home teams was sowhelmingly good favorite

1015
00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:52,760
Speaker 10: that if you win a road game in the SEC,

1016
00:53:52,880 --> 00:53:54,000
Speaker 10: there's something special going on.

1017
00:53:54,480 --> 00:53:58,640
Speaker 1: I think that. I think I think anytime a crowd

1018
00:53:58,760 --> 00:54:01,640
Speaker 1: is really into a game, the officials end up favoring

1019
00:54:01,680 --> 00:54:04,040
Speaker 1: the whole team. I think that's just almost natural.

1020
00:54:05,880 --> 00:54:08,759
Speaker 10: But uh, but yeah, I mean I said, I think

1021
00:54:08,800 --> 00:54:13,520
Speaker 10: that sequence there with Perry and uh and then Sears

1022
00:54:13,520 --> 00:54:15,520
Speaker 10: getting that call was terrible. And then the other thing

1023
00:54:15,640 --> 00:54:18,360
Speaker 10: was I can't remember who it was, but he the

1024
00:54:18,400 --> 00:54:20,960
Speaker 10: Alabama player put his arm up and actually shoved the

1025
00:54:21,040 --> 00:54:23,440
Speaker 10: UK player down and they called the UK player for

1026
00:54:23,960 --> 00:54:26,319
Speaker 10: blocking instead of the charge even by to I'll pick

1027
00:54:26,400 --> 00:54:30,080
Speaker 10: that one up. Yeah, But like I said that that

1028
00:54:29,800 --> 00:54:32,399
Speaker 10: that that's just it's just it's just that's what it is.

1029
00:54:32,560 --> 00:54:34,520
Speaker 10: But the actually the biggest reason they lost is that

1030
00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:37,120
Speaker 10: this you know, they're shorthanded, they didn't make the plays,

1031
00:54:37,120 --> 00:54:40,040
Speaker 10: and until we get those guys back, it's just gonna

1032
00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:41,839
Speaker 10: be it's gonna be a tough road to home.

1033
00:54:42,400 --> 00:54:44,879
Speaker 1: Totally agree appreciate the call. I mean, it's just it is.

1034
00:54:45,360 --> 00:54:48,600
Speaker 1: I mean, this team. If this was the team going

1035
00:54:48,640 --> 00:54:53,200
Speaker 1: into the NCAA tournament, then I'd be like, hopefully we

1036
00:54:53,280 --> 00:54:55,320
Speaker 1: can win one, and if we win two, it's great.

1037
00:54:55,480 --> 00:54:57,359
Speaker 1: But this isn't gonna be the team I think we're

1038
00:54:57,360 --> 00:55:00,440
Speaker 1: gonna have. Butler, I'm gonna just make it. Yes, we

1039
00:55:00,520 --> 00:55:04,080
Speaker 1: have Butler for the Auburn game, might even have him Wednesday,

1040
00:55:04,120 --> 00:55:06,960
Speaker 1: but I think the Auburn game is more likely Robinson.

1041
00:55:06,960 --> 00:55:08,919
Speaker 1: I hope we get him by the sec term. That's

1042
00:55:08,960 --> 00:55:11,239
Speaker 1: the way, That's the way I'm looking at it. And

1043
00:55:11,239 --> 00:55:13,279
Speaker 1: then it's a different team with those guys than it

1044
00:55:13,360 --> 00:55:16,879
Speaker 1: is with what it is. Right now, Let's do four more.

1045
00:55:16,920 --> 00:55:17,520
Speaker 1: Who's next?

1046
00:55:18,440 --> 00:55:19,120
Speaker 2: Joe is next?

1047
00:55:19,480 --> 00:55:20,240
Speaker 1: Joe? Go ahead?

1048
00:55:21,640 --> 00:55:24,880
Speaker 18: Quickly mad on the Ladies game tomorrow. I just assume

1049
00:55:25,000 --> 00:55:29,719
Speaker 18: George's a Moore's parents or flying in from Australia. And

1050
00:55:29,840 --> 00:55:32,320
Speaker 18: maybe that's the reason why apparently.

1051
00:55:31,840 --> 00:55:34,480
Speaker 1: The women somebody sent somebody sent me a message the

1052
00:55:34,520 --> 00:55:37,279
Speaker 1: women always try to do their senior day on the

1053
00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:40,319
Speaker 1: last weekend home game. I didn't know that, so.

1054
00:55:40,520 --> 00:55:42,879
Speaker 18: Okay, all right now, I'm just I was just kind

1055
00:55:42,880 --> 00:55:45,839
Speaker 18: of curious myself and quickly mad on the game. I

1056
00:55:45,880 --> 00:55:48,920
Speaker 18: really think the key to our whole team is is Garrison.

1057
00:55:49,920 --> 00:55:52,640
Speaker 18: If I'm Mark Pope, I'm giving him ten minutes a game,

1058
00:55:53,120 --> 00:55:56,520
Speaker 18: and if he doesn't have four fouls and about three

1059
00:55:56,560 --> 00:55:59,080
Speaker 18: block shots when he comes out of the game. Yeah,

1060
00:55:59,080 --> 00:56:01,919
Speaker 18: I'm looking at Garrison and I'm saying, that's just how

1061
00:56:02,000 --> 00:56:04,560
Speaker 18: you help us win the game is by is by

1062
00:56:04,600 --> 00:56:08,440
Speaker 18: being physical and getting some block shots. In My gosh, Matt,

1063
00:56:08,560 --> 00:56:10,920
Speaker 18: I mean, it's just to the point I think something

1064
00:56:10,960 --> 00:56:12,719
Speaker 18: he just blests him lay it in, and he just

1065
00:56:12,760 --> 00:56:15,920
Speaker 18: thinks he's doing his job. He's six foot eleven. I mean,

1066
00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:19,000
Speaker 18: get give me some block shots. I understand why Maury

1067
00:56:19,080 --> 00:56:21,319
Speaker 18: might be hesitant because he knows he's so important to

1068
00:56:21,320 --> 00:56:23,480
Speaker 18: the d that maybe he don't want to get in

1069
00:56:23,520 --> 00:56:27,040
Speaker 18: foul trouble. But Garrison, you are expendable. You can help

1070
00:56:27,080 --> 00:56:30,200
Speaker 18: this team by giving me four thousand three block shots

1071
00:56:30,239 --> 00:56:32,120
Speaker 18: a game. Thanks a lot, Matt, goodbye.

1072
00:56:32,160 --> 00:56:34,440
Speaker 1: I appreciate the call. I mean I don't I think

1073
00:56:34,520 --> 00:56:38,920
Speaker 1: there's there's something to that. I you know, I don't

1074
00:56:38,960 --> 00:56:41,440
Speaker 1: feel like the gap between those guys Billy was as

1075
00:56:41,440 --> 00:56:43,359
Speaker 1: big at the beginning of the year as it is now.

1076
00:56:43,560 --> 00:56:45,960
Speaker 1: You know, I don't. And I don't know if that's

1077
00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:48,880
Speaker 1: just that Amar's really really improved or if things have

1078
00:56:48,960 --> 00:56:51,759
Speaker 1: gone differently for Brandon. But you know, I think you

1079
00:56:51,840 --> 00:56:54,560
Speaker 1: look at the roster, you could say like it feels

1080
00:56:54,600 --> 00:56:58,279
Speaker 1: like everyone on the team has improved or had to

1081
00:56:58,320 --> 00:57:00,160
Speaker 1: deal with an injury like Cars had to do with

1082
00:57:00,200 --> 00:57:03,160
Speaker 1: an injury, but I don't. I just don't feel that

1083
00:57:03,200 --> 00:57:06,000
Speaker 1: way about Garrison. And I'm not sure why, but it

1084
00:57:06,160 --> 00:57:08,000
Speaker 1: just it doesn't seem to have happened for him.

1085
00:57:08,480 --> 00:57:10,720
Speaker 2: Who's NeXT's improved a lot.

1086
00:57:11,320 --> 00:57:15,960
Speaker 1: He's improved a lot. I mean the freshmen have all improved,

1087
00:57:17,320 --> 00:57:20,280
Speaker 1: you know, always been pretty consistent all year. But I

1088
00:57:20,280 --> 00:57:23,439
Speaker 1: think all minors improved, right, Like, I think it's it's

1089
00:57:23,480 --> 00:57:26,520
Speaker 1: really been been Garrison. That's kind of thing to step back.

1090
00:57:26,600 --> 00:57:30,800
Speaker 1: Who's next? Sherry? How are you? Sherry?

1091
00:57:31,080 --> 00:57:33,600
Speaker 19: I'm good, mad. I just wanted to call. I don't

1092
00:57:33,600 --> 00:57:36,320
Speaker 19: really have nothing rude to say about the game. I

1093
00:57:36,360 --> 00:57:38,920
Speaker 19: feel just like you did, and I think you do

1094
00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:42,160
Speaker 19: an excellent job with all the people that call and

1095
00:57:42,280 --> 00:57:45,560
Speaker 19: are mad. And I wanted to say whenever that guy

1096
00:57:45,640 --> 00:57:48,600
Speaker 19: called Paula Go and said that the announcers just kept

1097
00:57:48,640 --> 00:57:54,400
Speaker 19: talking about Alabama, you really explained that so well, and

1098
00:57:54,480 --> 00:57:55,960
Speaker 19: I just wanted to brag on you.

1099
00:57:59,320 --> 00:58:00,040
Speaker 9: And I love.

1100
00:58:03,600 --> 00:58:09,840
Speaker 1: Much appreciated it twice. Well good, that's very uh, that's

1101
00:58:09,960 --> 00:58:14,160
Speaker 1: very nice of her. Yeah, I mean, like it's we

1102
00:58:14,280 --> 00:58:17,400
Speaker 1: we it's natural, like you're gonna talk about the team

1103
00:58:17,400 --> 00:58:20,080
Speaker 1: that's winning, like that's just what's gonna happen, and then

1104
00:58:20,120 --> 00:58:22,880
Speaker 1: you're gonna talk about You know, when you're in an

1105
00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:25,800
Speaker 1: environment and everybody in that environment is cheering for a team,

1106
00:58:25,880 --> 00:58:28,439
Speaker 1: you're gonna talk about the team that everybody's cheering for.

1107
00:58:28,920 --> 00:58:32,760
Speaker 1: And I would say to you, watch Kentucky play like

1108
00:58:33,760 --> 00:58:37,280
Speaker 1: South Carolina and ask yourself, if you were a South

1109
00:58:37,320 --> 00:58:41,520
Speaker 1: Carolina fan, which team you think they're talking about? More?

1110
00:58:42,240 --> 00:58:45,120
Speaker 1: You know, by the way, the Texas head coach looks

1111
00:58:45,200 --> 00:58:48,600
Speaker 1: exactly like Gus Fering from better than us all and

1112
00:58:48,760 --> 00:58:53,480
Speaker 1: breaking breaking bad. He looks like just like him? All right?

1113
00:58:53,520 --> 00:58:53,840
Speaker 1: Two more?

1114
00:58:53,840 --> 00:58:55,640
Speaker 2: Who's says that to Shannon? He had no idea what

1115
00:58:55,680 --> 00:58:56,400
Speaker 2: I was talking about.

1116
00:58:57,640 --> 00:58:58,880
Speaker 1: Fring or frig.

1117
00:59:00,560 --> 00:59:05,200
Speaker 2: Friends, go ahead, Heather is ahead.

1118
00:59:05,520 --> 00:59:10,040
Speaker 20: Crap. Sorry, I was putting a piece of wood on

1119
00:59:10,120 --> 00:59:16,000
Speaker 20: the fe and it felt fell out on me. And

1120
00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:21,400
Speaker 20: first of all, I agree with you on the elon

1121
00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:22,920
Speaker 20: he also, okay, I.

1122
00:59:22,920 --> 00:59:25,200
Speaker 1: Don't I don't bring this stuff. I don't bring this

1123
00:59:25,240 --> 00:59:28,160
Speaker 1: stuff up to then get everybody's opinions on. I just

1124
00:59:28,200 --> 00:59:29,400
Speaker 1: say it and we move on.

1125
00:59:29,520 --> 00:59:32,560
Speaker 20: So go ahead, okay, well, all right, we'll go past that.

1126
00:59:34,120 --> 00:59:40,160
Speaker 20: I was also just wondering about this substitution thing. I

1127
00:59:40,160 --> 00:59:43,960
Speaker 20: don't want to complain. I love Pope, but it seems

1128
00:59:44,000 --> 00:59:50,080
Speaker 20: like it's just the timing of when he subs out,

1129
00:59:50,400 --> 00:59:54,000
Speaker 20: like within the first you know, a few minutes. And

1130
00:59:54,200 --> 00:59:58,040
Speaker 20: I've been getting crap on Twitter about it, but you know,

1131
00:59:58,440 --> 01:00:02,120
Speaker 20: talking about their age and the older but crap. Lebron's

1132
01:00:02,200 --> 01:00:06,280
Speaker 20: forty and he plays, you know, But I don't understand

1133
01:00:06,280 --> 01:00:08,200
Speaker 20: the time, and I for just a few minutes of

1134
01:00:08,320 --> 01:00:13,120
Speaker 20: taking them all out, because that was a big, big

1135
01:00:13,280 --> 01:00:16,600
Speaker 20: different in the plus minus. I'm sure when we were

1136
01:00:16,680 --> 01:00:19,520
Speaker 20: up twenty to nine and he took them out and

1137
01:00:19,560 --> 01:00:24,480
Speaker 20: put the others in and they scored wheny seven points

1138
01:00:24,520 --> 01:00:28,640
Speaker 20: on us, I just don't I don't want to be frustrated,

1139
01:00:28,720 --> 01:00:30,480
Speaker 20: but I don't know why he does it.

1140
01:00:31,040 --> 01:00:33,480
Speaker 1: Well. I mean, I agree, we've talked a lot about it.

1141
01:00:33,520 --> 01:00:38,440
Speaker 1: I appreciate it to call I. You know, these dudes

1142
01:00:38,440 --> 01:00:41,840
Speaker 1: can play thirty minutes. But he clearly has a philosophy

1143
01:00:41,880 --> 01:00:44,520
Speaker 1: because we have not. He's done this all year and

1144
01:00:44,600 --> 01:00:48,800
Speaker 1: granted we've won games doing it, but I don't understand it,

1145
01:00:49,320 --> 01:00:51,600
Speaker 1: especially when there's a huge gap. I mean, I just

1146
01:00:51,640 --> 01:00:54,680
Speaker 1: think you know, one thing like cow but you know,

1147
01:00:54,760 --> 01:00:57,520
Speaker 1: you go look at Col's rotations in the tournament. He's

1148
01:00:57,560 --> 01:01:00,240
Speaker 1: playing guys thirty three minutes. Again, I mean he would

1149
01:01:00,240 --> 01:01:02,320
Speaker 1: get down to play in seven guys. When we won

1150
01:01:02,360 --> 01:01:05,360
Speaker 1: the national championship, we only played six guys, you know.

1151
01:01:07,480 --> 01:01:10,280
Speaker 1: Eloid Vargas was the seventh and Kyle Wilcher was the eighth,

1152
01:01:10,360 --> 01:01:13,360
Speaker 1: but we basically went with six. You know, I feel

1153
01:01:13,360 --> 01:01:16,120
Speaker 1: like these guys can do it. The even the platoon

1154
01:01:16,240 --> 01:01:19,320
Speaker 1: team by the time you got to the tournament, they

1155
01:01:19,400 --> 01:01:21,720
Speaker 1: platooned for a half and then he played the best guys.

1156
01:01:22,120 --> 01:01:24,520
Speaker 1: So I feel like we can play the best guys.

1157
01:01:24,560 --> 01:01:27,200
Speaker 1: Just play him, you know, play.

1158
01:01:27,040 --> 01:01:28,880
Speaker 2: Them no load management games for Mario.

1159
01:01:29,000 --> 01:01:31,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it may be different game guys each game,

1160
01:01:32,080 --> 01:01:35,840
Speaker 1: right like it might be you know, tonight Travis Perry

1161
01:01:35,880 --> 01:01:38,200
Speaker 1: was playing pretty well, so maybe you give him more minutes.

1162
01:01:39,160 --> 01:01:42,320
Speaker 1: We've had games Noah played well. But like, I just

1163
01:01:42,360 --> 01:01:45,560
Speaker 1: don't ever, I'm never gonna see a reason why Kobe

1164
01:01:45,560 --> 01:01:48,800
Speaker 1: bred until we get Robinson Butler back. You're I'm not

1165
01:01:48,920 --> 01:01:52,200
Speaker 1: gonna understand why o Way, Brea and Garrison are not

1166
01:01:52,320 --> 01:01:54,960
Speaker 1: in every minute. You could have them in and then

1167
01:01:55,040 --> 01:01:59,600
Speaker 1: Carr as many minutes as his back can take, right, Like,

1168
01:01:59,680 --> 01:02:04,320
Speaker 1: those more dudes should be in every second, that they

1169
01:02:04,320 --> 01:02:05,720
Speaker 1: could that their bodies can go.

1170
01:02:05,640 --> 01:02:08,560
Speaker 2: At least a little bit like last year. What do

1171
01:02:08,560 --> 01:02:11,440
Speaker 2: you mean, just like the not the guys the right

1172
01:02:11,480 --> 01:02:13,040
Speaker 2: guys not playing at the same time.

1173
01:02:13,560 --> 01:02:16,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, well yeah that was that was a little different.

1174
01:02:16,680 --> 01:02:19,280
Speaker 1: But you're exactly right, a little simple. All right, who's next?

1175
01:02:19,320 --> 01:02:21,240
Speaker 1: Jordan finished Straw.

1176
01:02:22,600 --> 01:02:24,640
Speaker 8: All right, Matt, So first I'm going to start with

1177
01:02:24,680 --> 01:02:26,760
Speaker 8: the Elama stuff. I know you don't want to talk

1178
01:02:26,760 --> 01:02:27,080
Speaker 8: about it.

1179
01:02:27,120 --> 01:02:29,919
Speaker 1: No, you're not if you want me to, okay, go ahead.

1180
01:02:29,920 --> 01:02:31,360
Speaker 1: If you're a federal employe, I'll let you say.

1181
01:02:31,960 --> 01:02:34,840
Speaker 8: I'm a federal employee. I actually did get the email today.

1182
01:02:36,040 --> 01:02:40,160
Speaker 8: It's from hr of O p M dot gov, so

1183
01:02:40,400 --> 01:02:43,720
Speaker 8: it's it's actually from a legitimate sour so they are

1184
01:02:43,840 --> 01:02:46,240
Speaker 8: asking you to tell you to tell them what you

1185
01:02:46,280 --> 01:02:48,440
Speaker 8: did five things you did in the past week.

1186
01:02:49,280 --> 01:02:53,240
Speaker 1: So it's kind of but it's from a non secure server.

1187
01:02:53,360 --> 01:02:55,160
Speaker 1: I bet you get a message that tells you not

1188
01:02:55,200 --> 01:02:56,480
Speaker 1: to do it. But anyway, go ahead.

1189
01:02:56,720 --> 01:03:00,920
Speaker 8: Oh well, we actually got a thing from our Washington

1190
01:03:01,000 --> 01:03:01,240
Speaker 8: d C.

1191
01:03:01,480 --> 01:03:03,800
Speaker 1: And again you just wanted to make your comment, and

1192
01:03:03,840 --> 01:03:05,959
Speaker 1: now you're keeping going. I want you to get onto

1193
01:03:06,000 --> 01:03:06,480
Speaker 1: the sports.

1194
01:03:06,480 --> 01:03:10,800
Speaker 8: Okay, all right, for the sports. So I will say

1195
01:03:10,840 --> 01:03:13,960
Speaker 8: this about Kentucky. So everybody's complaining about Mark Pope and

1196
01:03:14,000 --> 01:03:16,800
Speaker 8: the way he's doing stuff, that his rotations and stuff,

1197
01:03:16,840 --> 01:03:21,240
Speaker 8: But honestly, we played Alabama really good tonight and you

1198
01:03:21,280 --> 01:03:24,240
Speaker 8: had you had your three leading scores kind of down,

1199
01:03:24,480 --> 01:03:29,760
Speaker 8: you know, Butler Away was Away fouled out, and then

1200
01:03:29,800 --> 01:03:33,720
Speaker 8: you had Jackson Robinson not playing. We played that team good.

1201
01:03:33,840 --> 01:03:37,560
Speaker 8: I think Mark Pope has a perfect Stole offense going

1202
01:03:37,800 --> 01:03:41,400
Speaker 8: into the season. Everything we're doing right now is good.

1203
01:03:41,440 --> 01:03:42,120
Speaker 10: We're gonna be an.

1204
01:03:42,080 --> 01:03:45,560
Speaker 8: NTAA tournament team. People do not know how to play us.

1205
01:03:45,720 --> 01:03:48,720
Speaker 8: That's the problem with the SEC right now. That's why

1206
01:03:48,760 --> 01:03:50,640
Speaker 8: we're doing so good in the SEC. People do not

1207
01:03:50,760 --> 01:03:53,720
Speaker 8: know how to play that offense or a Marii standing

1208
01:03:53,760 --> 01:03:56,320
Speaker 8: at the top of the key passing the ball around,

1209
01:03:56,760 --> 01:03:59,960
Speaker 8: you know, just going around. Nobody knows that to no

1210
01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:03,000
Speaker 8: nobody knows how to play is right now. We're gonna

1211
01:04:03,000 --> 01:04:06,400
Speaker 8: be just fine. People need to be happy about what

1212
01:04:06,440 --> 01:04:08,520
Speaker 8: we're doing right now, what Mark Pope's doing right now,

1213
01:04:09,000 --> 01:04:12,680
Speaker 8: We're gonna be fine. Everything with this team, with Mark

1214
01:04:12,720 --> 01:04:13,920
Speaker 8: Pope leading this scene.

1215
01:04:14,800 --> 01:04:17,160
Speaker 1: We's only got four games. Let I mean to be fair, sir,

1216
01:04:17,600 --> 01:04:19,840
Speaker 1: we only have four games left, and we don't even

1217
01:04:19,880 --> 01:04:21,640
Speaker 1: know if two of our if our two best players

1218
01:04:21,680 --> 01:04:24,200
Speaker 1: are gonna be back. Yet I think it's reasonable for

1219
01:04:24,280 --> 01:04:27,320
Speaker 1: people to not just say we're fine. I think it's

1220
01:04:27,360 --> 01:04:30,600
Speaker 1: reasonable for people to go I don't know. I mean,

1221
01:04:31,200 --> 01:04:34,800
Speaker 1: you know, we haven't said, like Jackson Robinson if he plays,

1222
01:04:34,880 --> 01:04:36,880
Speaker 1: which I think he will, but if he does, like

1223
01:04:36,960 --> 01:04:40,120
Speaker 1: he may just start back in the postseason. I don't

1224
01:04:40,160 --> 01:04:42,480
Speaker 1: know how you can know that's gonna work out. I

1225
01:04:42,480 --> 01:04:44,560
Speaker 1: hope it works out. I think if we're one hundred

1226
01:04:44,560 --> 01:04:47,520
Speaker 1: percent healthy, we can beat anybody. But we don't know

1227
01:04:47,720 --> 01:04:48,600
Speaker 1: that's gonna happen.

1228
01:04:50,840 --> 01:04:53,840
Speaker 8: Mark Pope has that offense that people do not know

1229
01:04:53,880 --> 01:04:56,520
Speaker 8: how to defend. These other coaches, they do not know

1230
01:04:56,560 --> 01:05:00,520
Speaker 8: how to defend it. People have admitted it before. And

1231
01:05:01,120 --> 01:05:04,200
Speaker 8: Kentucky is gonna be fine. We're gonna be fine. All right,

1232
01:05:04,560 --> 01:05:06,040
Speaker 8: We're gonna be great.

1233
01:05:06,440 --> 01:05:08,800
Speaker 1: All right. Well, I appreciate the call. Nothing was gonna

1234
01:05:08,800 --> 01:05:09,880
Speaker 1: deter that guy's point.

1235
01:05:10,680 --> 01:05:14,000
Speaker 2: Everything's gonna be I responded, and he said the same

1236
01:05:14,040 --> 01:05:14,560
Speaker 2: thing again.

1237
01:05:14,720 --> 01:05:18,920
Speaker 1: You know it's all right. Hey, uh listen, man, feisty

1238
01:05:19,040 --> 01:05:22,240
Speaker 1: show sometimes for me, sometimes for everybody else. But I

1239
01:05:22,320 --> 01:05:25,160
Speaker 1: liked it and congrats to South Carolina gets their first

1240
01:05:25,200 --> 01:05:30,080
Speaker 1: conference win beats Texas tonight. That Texas loss is a

1241
01:05:30,080 --> 01:05:30,640
Speaker 1: tough one.

1242
01:05:31,560 --> 01:05:33,200
Speaker 2: Just fell apart that Texas lost.

1243
01:05:33,280 --> 01:05:35,840
Speaker 1: That Texas loss may end up costing us. Like if

1244
01:05:35,880 --> 01:05:38,120
Speaker 1: we had won against Texas, I think we'd have a

1245
01:05:38,240 --> 01:05:41,480
Speaker 1: chance of finishing like as the sixth seed or five seed,

1246
01:05:41,520 --> 01:05:43,760
Speaker 1: and we're now we might be the nine and play

1247
01:05:43,760 --> 01:05:46,840
Speaker 1: on Wednesday. That was a big loss, that Texas loss.

1248
01:05:47,040 --> 01:05:50,240
Speaker 1: Thank you all very much for listening. Support the women's

1249
01:05:50,240 --> 01:05:53,040
Speaker 1: team tomorrow, big game against LSU. I'd tell you to go,

1250
01:05:53,080 --> 01:05:55,760
Speaker 1: but it's already sold outs. Can't go unless you're going,

1251

1255
01:06:06,880 --> 01:06:08,640
Speaker 1: We're getting into the time of the year that we

1256
01:06:08,680 --> 01:06:11,360
Speaker 1: all love. This is why we love basketball as we're

1257
01:06:11,360 --> 01:06:14,760
Speaker 1: heading in very close to march. Cats lose tonight, but

1258
