WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:03.960 I don't think it's a coincidence that the first wall 2 00:00:03.960 --> 00:00:06.799 wall that's opening up is not too far. In fact, 3 00:00:06.839 --> 00:00:09.279 it's very close to one of the many Kentucky and 4 00:00:09.320 --> 00:00:12.279 at Thornton's locations, because you know they're trying to compete, 5 00:00:12.759 --> 00:00:14.560 and I wish them the best of luck. I'm a 6 00:00:14.599 --> 00:00:16.280 Thornton's man. I think a lot of people who know 7 00:00:16.359 --> 00:00:19.399 me know that if you are just now getting getting 8 00:00:19.399 --> 00:00:23.440 to know me by listening, I am fueled by Thornton's John. 9 00:00:23.440 --> 00:00:25.000 Am I telling a lie? Or am I telling the Joe? 10 00:00:25.199 --> 00:00:26.480 You are the Thornton's man. 11 00:00:26.559 --> 00:00:28.719 I'm the Thornton's man. So keep them in mind when 12 00:00:28.719 --> 00:00:30.399 you want to start your day. You can save money 13 00:00:30.399 --> 00:00:32.920 at the gas pump by becoming a Refreshing Rewards member. 14 00:00:33.439 --> 00:00:36.920 And they also got the best donuts in town. I 15 00:00:36.960 --> 00:00:40.560 can't prove that, but if you trust me and you 16 00:00:40.600 --> 00:00:44.079 give them a shot, I'm very confident you will agree. 17 00:00:44.119 --> 00:00:46.719 And if you disagree, that's fine. Just know that you're wrong. 18 00:00:46.960 --> 00:00:48.679 Just want you to know that it is seven to 19 00:00:48.759 --> 00:00:50.799 five here Kentucky in This Morning News with Nick Coffee 20 00:00:50.799 --> 00:00:54.560 on Newsrady eight forty whas as I'm looking here at 21 00:00:54.920 --> 00:01:00.640 the coverage of yesterday's parade in Oklahoma City, and I'm 22 00:01:00.679 --> 00:01:03.320 assuming it's hotter there than it is here. Maybe I'm wrong, 23 00:01:03.359 --> 00:01:05.319 because it's hot as hell here, right, It is just 24 00:01:05.439 --> 00:01:11.000 disgusting outside. If winning a championship ends up, you know, 25 00:01:11.040 --> 00:01:13.840 one of the many perks and gifts that you get 26 00:01:14.359 --> 00:01:16.959 is to walk around outside for hours. I don't want 27 00:01:16.959 --> 00:01:20.239 to win. I'll throw the game if you tell me 28 00:01:20.959 --> 00:01:24.120 that it requires me to then walk around outside with 29 00:01:24.200 --> 00:01:27.920 a million people, seemingly in the heat. We've got going 30 00:01:27.959 --> 00:01:30.920 on across the country. It's not just here, it's everywhere, seemingly, 31 00:01:31.040 --> 00:01:33.239 mean not everywhere. In fact, I did see that was 32 00:01:33.280 --> 00:01:37.920 it Montana that actually had a legitimate snowstorm yesterday, So 33 00:01:38.239 --> 00:01:42.079 not everywhere. But anyhow, it's warm, and it's already up 34 00:01:42.120 --> 00:01:44.799 to I think eighty degrees and it feels like eighty five. 35 00:01:44.840 --> 00:01:48.359 So just be prepared for that because this gross weather 36 00:01:48.480 --> 00:01:50.359 has been here for a few days and it's going 37 00:01:50.400 --> 00:01:53.799 to be here at least until today. And that I mean, 38 00:01:53.799 --> 00:01:57.439 there are people out there that do prefer this, right, 39 00:01:57.519 --> 00:02:00.280 I mean I don't know them. I think they need 40 00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:06.280 to be evaluated, but I mean, you walk outside yesterday, 41 00:02:06.359 --> 00:02:08.759 even this morning. I mean at three o'clock in the morning, 42 00:02:08.800 --> 00:02:11.159 when I walk out of my house, the sun's not 43 00:02:11.240 --> 00:02:14.319 beating on me because it's it's not it's day it's 44 00:02:14.319 --> 00:02:17.479 not daylight yet. It's still nighttime essentially, But it's so gross, 45 00:02:17.479 --> 00:02:19.800 Like I just can't imagine somebody walking outside of me, like. 46 00:02:19.759 --> 00:02:22.280 Oh this is this is great? How refreshing. 47 00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:25.400 Yeah, thank you Mother Nature really hooking it up today. 48 00:02:26.199 --> 00:02:29.039 But everybody's got their own preferences. I've always been someone 49 00:02:29.039 --> 00:02:32.719 that actually does enjoy I like the winter time, the 50 00:02:32.759 --> 00:02:35.280 winter season, everything that comes with it, and I don't 51 00:02:35.280 --> 00:02:37.800 mind a good snow every now and then as far 52 00:02:37.840 --> 00:02:41.520 as just something pretty to look at. Certainly I prefer 53 00:02:41.560 --> 00:02:43.520 we get it on Christmas. Doesn't always work out that way, 54 00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:47.159 but I prefer Like, again, everybody's got their preference. 55 00:02:47.159 --> 00:02:47.919 Would you rather. 56 00:02:47.840 --> 00:02:54.520 Be in insanely cold conditions or insanely hot conditions? I 57 00:02:54.560 --> 00:02:57.520 think when it comes to heat, you can only take 58 00:02:57.560 --> 00:03:02.199 off so many layers, right, and in cold weather you 59 00:03:02.240 --> 00:03:06.240 can bundle up and stay warm. But even if you 60 00:03:06.240 --> 00:03:09.080 put unlimited layers on at times, if it's so cold, 61 00:03:09.120 --> 00:03:11.080 it's just going to be brutal. But look, it gets 62 00:03:11.120 --> 00:03:14.039 dark earlier during the wintertime, there's not as much to 63 00:03:14.080 --> 00:03:17.000 do outside. In the wintertime, there's not as much vitamin 64 00:03:17.080 --> 00:03:19.800 D to take in. So I understand, like the seasons 65 00:03:20.159 --> 00:03:23.039 when it comes to just like what's the funner time of. 66 00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:24.479 The year for people, I get it. 67 00:03:24.479 --> 00:03:27.360 It's usually spring, summer, and then fall, and then the 68 00:03:27.360 --> 00:03:30.840 winter is something that gives people legitimate like seasonal depression. 69 00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:34.199 That's a real thing. But I've always been I guess 70 00:03:34.280 --> 00:03:37.120 just wired different. Some say I'm just weird. I prefer 71 00:03:37.240 --> 00:03:40.400 it being cold outside, and I'm also maybe this just 72 00:03:40.400 --> 00:03:41.919 says I'm a sick and twisted individual. 73 00:03:42.000 --> 00:03:43.879 I don't mind when it gets dark early. Well here's 74 00:03:43.919 --> 00:03:46.039 a great thing for you now too. With this new schedule, 75 00:03:46.080 --> 00:03:48.639 it'll be way easier to fall asleep at times, like 76 00:03:48.719 --> 00:03:51.159 you know, seven o'clock at night, because it'll already be 77 00:03:51.159 --> 00:03:52.319 pitch a black outside. 78 00:03:52.360 --> 00:03:54.599 And that has been I'm glad you said that, John, 79 00:03:54.599 --> 00:03:57.879 because that has actually been my biggest challenge when it 80 00:03:57.919 --> 00:04:01.560 comes to adjusting. I mean it's not been super smooth. 81 00:04:02.080 --> 00:04:04.360 I now I now at least know better, right, Like 82 00:04:04.400 --> 00:04:06.319 if I end up deciding, hey, no, I don't I 83 00:04:06.319 --> 00:04:08.479 don't need to get a quick nap in to reset. 84 00:04:08.759 --> 00:04:10.919 Like I know now that by the time we get 85 00:04:10.919 --> 00:04:13.240 to eight o'clock, I'm dead and I'm gonna pay for it. 86 00:04:13.719 --> 00:04:17.120 But my kids, it's dark. It's it's not dark outside 87 00:04:17.160 --> 00:04:21.639 until like past ten pm. And and when it's daylight, 88 00:04:21.800 --> 00:04:24.680 and I'm trying to get them, you know, calm down 89 00:04:24.680 --> 00:04:26.920 and get them at least heading into the direction of 90 00:04:26.959 --> 00:04:29.720 getting rested to go to sleep. When they see that 91 00:04:29.759 --> 00:04:31.160 it's daylight, they're like, what are you what are. 92 00:04:31.120 --> 00:04:31.839 You talking about? Dad? 93 00:04:31.879 --> 00:04:36.240 It's not nighttime. And I'm struggling when it comes to that. So, yeah, 94 00:04:36.240 --> 00:04:39.120 you're right, though, when it gets to to be fall 95 00:04:39.160 --> 00:04:41.600 and winter, it'll be much different, and it'll be it'll 96 00:04:41.600 --> 00:04:42.959 be dark at six. 97 00:04:42.800 --> 00:04:46.560 O'clock, even five o'clock, once you get to the really 98 00:04:46.800 --> 00:04:47.920 true worst days of it. 99 00:04:48.199 --> 00:04:50.639 Yeah, I mean, I that seems like it was so 100 00:04:50.720 --> 00:04:52.639 long ago, but it really wasn't that long ago. Whenever 101 00:04:52.639 --> 00:04:54.279 we made the you know, whenever you have the you know, 102 00:04:54.360 --> 00:04:58.040 the annual time change where of course it becomes it stays, 103 00:04:58.120 --> 00:05:00.639 it stays light much later into the evening. But yeah, 104 00:05:00.680 --> 00:05:02.680 whenever I would wrap up the show when I was 105 00:05:02.680 --> 00:05:04.759 doing sports at six o'clock, I mean, it would be, 106 00:05:05.199 --> 00:05:07.079 it'd be pitch block outside as if. 107 00:05:07.000 --> 00:05:07.800 It was midnight. 108 00:05:07.959 --> 00:05:10.480 So anyhow, gonna be another warm day today, So just 109 00:05:10.680 --> 00:05:13.720 be prepared for those of you here in Kentucky. 110 00:05:13.720 --> 00:05:13.920 Anda. 111 00:05:14.240 --> 00:05:16.759 All right, let's get an update on traffic and weather. Also, 112 00:05:16.920 --> 00:05:19.639 Tom Jurich, he's gonna be honored this weekend as UFL 113 00:05:19.720 --> 00:05:21.639 is going to name part of Floyd Street after him, 114 00:05:21.720 --> 00:05:23.879 Jurich Way. He was on with Terry Miners yesterday. We'll 115 00:05:23.920 --> 00:05:25.839 let you hear some of what Tom had to say 116 00:05:25.879 --> 00:05:29.160 about this big event coming up on Saturday, and a 117 00:05:29.199 --> 00:05:31.240 lot more as we wrote along here on news radio 118 00:05:31.279 --> 00:05:35.959 eight forty WHS. If you were listening to Terry Miners 119 00:05:36.040 --> 00:05:39.759 yesterday afternoon, which I hope you were, you probably heard 120 00:05:39.839 --> 00:05:42.199 a familiar voice if you're a Louisville fan, and that 121 00:05:42.319 --> 00:05:46.519 was Tom Jurich, who joined Terry to discuss this weekend's event. 122 00:05:46.720 --> 00:05:51.079 On Saturday, at ten am, the University of Louisville, along 123 00:05:51.120 --> 00:05:53.600 with the City of Louisville, will be honoring Tom Jurich 124 00:05:54.240 --> 00:05:57.079 by naming part of Floyd Street after him. 125 00:05:57.199 --> 00:05:58.439 It'll be called Jurich Way. 126 00:05:58.839 --> 00:06:02.279 So again, it's at ten am, and I would expect 127 00:06:02.680 --> 00:06:06.279 a good to really good crowd, just depending upon the 128 00:06:06.800 --> 00:06:09.120 amount of Louisville fans that I think are well aware 129 00:06:09.199 --> 00:06:13.399 that the athletic Department at U of l is is 130 00:06:13.879 --> 00:06:16.079 really on a different planet than what it could have 131 00:06:16.120 --> 00:06:19.480 potentially been on had Tom Jurich not had the impact 132 00:06:19.759 --> 00:06:20.680 that that he did. 133 00:06:20.800 --> 00:06:22.040 So again, Saturday, June. 134 00:06:21.879 --> 00:06:25.759 Twenty eighth, ten am at Lenny Lyles Plaza at card 135 00:06:25.759 --> 00:06:28.639 Park that's twenty one to thirty five South Floyd Street. 136 00:06:28.680 --> 00:06:31.920 Here is some of Tom's comments to Terry yesterday. 137 00:06:32.279 --> 00:06:34.600 Well, it's awful nice. I mean, it's very humbling to 138 00:06:34.639 --> 00:06:37.839 say the least, you know, but I appreciate Craig reaching 139 00:06:37.920 --> 00:06:40.600 out and wanted to do this, and certainly the people 140 00:06:40.600 --> 00:06:44.519 of the university also, and it's it's just a great 141 00:06:44.560 --> 00:06:47.199 time to reflect on the wonderful memories that we had 142 00:06:47.240 --> 00:06:48.519 of the city of Louisville. 143 00:06:48.560 --> 00:06:50.839 So I think this is this is something that is 144 00:06:50.879 --> 00:06:54.759 for Tom and also for fans and of course the. 145 00:06:54.800 --> 00:06:57.279 University those that are that are that are that are. 146 00:06:57.160 --> 00:07:01.120 There currently that realize one, this is a deserved honor 147 00:07:01.199 --> 00:07:05.399 for Tom, but also that this can only I think 148 00:07:05.519 --> 00:07:08.839 be a positive thing for everyone involved. There's no negative 149 00:07:09.279 --> 00:07:11.240 situation that I think could come from this. I could 150 00:07:11.279 --> 00:07:14.720 be wrong, but I've heard from some and some of 151 00:07:14.759 --> 00:07:16.279 the people that I've talked to about this are people 152 00:07:16.319 --> 00:07:19.199 who have also worked sort of in media that have 153 00:07:19.279 --> 00:07:22.079 had that, that have covered U of L that maybe 154 00:07:22.160 --> 00:07:24.639 you know, they didn't just cover the athletic department, maybe 155 00:07:24.680 --> 00:07:29.279 they covered the university and they were really I guess 156 00:07:29.360 --> 00:07:34.279 tracking the foundation situation, if I can call it that, 157 00:07:34.360 --> 00:07:38.319 between James Ramsey and Jurich. And you know, I won't 158 00:07:38.439 --> 00:07:40.639 claim to have all the knowledge about that, but from 159 00:07:40.639 --> 00:07:42.040 a fan standpoint. 160 00:07:41.680 --> 00:07:42.720 Fans don't care about that. 161 00:07:43.000 --> 00:07:45.639 And I'm not saying that like, you know, anybody bringing 162 00:07:45.639 --> 00:07:47.279 it up, is that a line or whatever, But like, 163 00:07:47.319 --> 00:07:49.240 at this point, the guy has not worked here in 164 00:07:49.519 --> 00:07:54.040 almost a decade, and I just you know, there was 165 00:07:54.079 --> 00:07:56.360 a lot of I mean, look, the exit was messy, 166 00:07:56.519 --> 00:07:59.240 and he'll even tell you that. I'm pretty sure he 167 00:07:59.360 --> 00:08:02.560 has never at any point not been pretty clear that 168 00:08:03.160 --> 00:08:05.000 he's unhappy with the way it ended. And I think 169 00:08:05.040 --> 00:08:08.800 most would be if you were Tom So, I see 170 00:08:08.839 --> 00:08:11.319 this as nothing but a win win for everybody involved, 171 00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:14.240 and I get the sense that most are on the 172 00:08:14.279 --> 00:08:18.639 same page. But regardless of what your thoughts are on Jurich. 173 00:08:20.319 --> 00:08:22.680 I don't know how you could even debate that he 174 00:08:22.839 --> 00:08:27.920 has maybe been the most impactful human being in the 175 00:08:28.000 --> 00:08:32.440 history of Louisville's athletic department as a whole. That may 176 00:08:32.559 --> 00:08:34.840 sound like I'm gassing him up a little too much, 177 00:08:34.840 --> 00:08:38.600 and that's to the extreme, but I mean, and again 178 00:08:38.600 --> 00:08:41.360 I'm not talking about one specific sport. I'm talking about 179 00:08:41.399 --> 00:08:43.000 what the athletic department is today. 180 00:08:43.080 --> 00:08:43.200 Now. 181 00:08:43.240 --> 00:08:46.720 Louisville basketball obviously stood on its own before Tom was 182 00:08:46.759 --> 00:08:48.840 around because what Denny Crumb did. And no offense to 183 00:08:49.080 --> 00:08:52.120 those that came before Denny, but obviously Denny made Louisville 184 00:08:52.440 --> 00:08:56.960 a basketball program, a basketball school, and certainly, I mean 185 00:08:57.399 --> 00:09:00.440 it's why you are still today viewed as one of 186 00:09:00.440 --> 00:09:02.960 the top seven eight programs of all time because of 187 00:09:03.000 --> 00:09:06.360 the foundation that was set mostly by Denny. But to 188 00:09:06.399 --> 00:09:09.200 Tom's credit, when he did have to make a move 189 00:09:09.480 --> 00:09:12.360 and Denny was nudged out and they had to go 190 00:09:12.399 --> 00:09:15.080 get somebody else to kind of, I mean take it 191 00:09:15.080 --> 00:09:17.919 over for Denny Crumb. Big shoester Fiel right, especially considering 192 00:09:17.960 --> 00:09:21.080 that been it had been some time since Louisville had 193 00:09:21.080 --> 00:09:23.799 some real, notable special teams that made deep runs in 194 00:09:23.840 --> 00:09:26.720 the tournament, and he went on and got Rick Patino, 195 00:09:26.879 --> 00:09:29.240 and obviously Rick Patino being here as long as he 196 00:09:29.840 --> 00:09:33.919 was and the incidents that took place, and Tom being 197 00:09:34.200 --> 00:09:37.120 very loyal to Rick. That was ultimately why Tom Jurch 198 00:09:37.120 --> 00:09:40.360 and Rick Patina worked both effectively fired in twenty seventeen. 199 00:09:40.799 --> 00:09:44.000 But regardless, Rick Patino's run here at Louisville with multiple 200 00:09:44.000 --> 00:09:47.279 final fours in a national championship, that was such a 201 00:09:47.360 --> 00:09:52.480 monumental era that has allowed you to again have disastrous 202 00:09:52.480 --> 00:09:55.600 seasons like you did with Kenny Payne, and yet still 203 00:09:55.600 --> 00:09:59.399 be a program that people can can can know how 204 00:09:59.440 --> 00:10:01.840 bad you were for a little stretch there, and still 205 00:10:01.840 --> 00:10:04.000 say without any hesitation that it's one of the best, 206 00:10:04.200 --> 00:10:07.039 at least one of the top ten programs of all time. So, 207 00:10:07.639 --> 00:10:09.840 you know, the other athletic departments, I mean the investments 208 00:10:09.840 --> 00:10:12.480 in resources and the hires that were made from Dan 209 00:10:12.559 --> 00:10:15.840 McDonald to Jeff Walls, I mean, to Charlie Strong, I 210 00:10:15.840 --> 00:10:18.440 mean that was he messed it up with Cragthorpe, meaning 211 00:10:18.440 --> 00:10:21.200 he got it wrong. You know, nobody as an athletic 212 00:10:21.240 --> 00:10:23.399 director I think has made a perfect hire every time. 213 00:10:23.679 --> 00:10:27.600 Clearly Steve Kragthorpe was not one, but he quickly corrected 214 00:10:27.600 --> 00:10:31.399 it and hired Charlie Strong, who the timing of Charlie's success, 215 00:10:31.840 --> 00:10:34.039 I mean that was that was impactful in a way 216 00:10:34.039 --> 00:10:36.120 that I don't think people realize. If you didn't have 217 00:10:36.159 --> 00:10:38.360 any momentum in football at the time the ACC had 218 00:10:38.360 --> 00:10:41.200 an opening, I don't know if you'd gotten the invite. 219 00:10:41.919 --> 00:10:45.159 So the momentum that Louisville Athletics had at that time 220 00:10:45.159 --> 00:10:47.519 when the ACC had a spot open because Maryland left 221 00:10:47.519 --> 00:10:49.559 to go to the Big Ten, I mean, there are 222 00:10:49.559 --> 00:10:52.279 a lot of factors at play, but really the athletic 223 00:10:52.320 --> 00:10:55.159 department booming and thriving the way it was was how 224 00:10:55.200 --> 00:10:58.200 you ended up getting that ACC invite, and that is 225 00:10:58.639 --> 00:11:01.679 I think largely due to Tom Rich And let's even 226 00:11:01.720 --> 00:11:03.720 back up the Big East. That was a big jump. 227 00:11:03.759 --> 00:11:06.480 Let's be real, going from Conference USA to the Big 228 00:11:06.519 --> 00:11:09.799 East was a big jump as well, and it I 229 00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:13.120 think is mostly due to the to the effort in 230 00:11:13.360 --> 00:11:16.200 in what Tom George did. So I'm happy for Tom 231 00:11:16.240 --> 00:11:21.039 and I'm hoping that he despite having some clear bitter 232 00:11:21.080 --> 00:11:23.840 feelings towards how it ended here, he's he's He's beloved 233 00:11:23.840 --> 00:11:27.320 by a lot of fans and I expect he'll be 234 00:11:27.360 --> 00:11:30.399 able to really feel that on Saturday. All right, we 235 00:11:30.440 --> 00:11:32.320 got at sports update coming your way with Scott Fitzgerald. 236 00:11:32.360 --> 00:11:33.840 But first let's get an update on Trappick and weather 237 00:11:33.919 --> 00:11:36.240 right here on news radio eight forty whas. 238 00:11:37.919 --> 00:11:40.320 Thank you, John. It is seven thirty five here Kentucky 239 00:11:40.320 --> 00:11:40.559 and his. 240 00:11:40.519 --> 00:11:44.559 Morning news with Nick Coffee on news Radio eight forty whas. 241 00:11:45.320 --> 00:11:48.559 Listen live wherever you are, whatever you're doing. You can 242 00:11:48.559 --> 00:11:50.879 do that with the iHeart Radio app. Also listen at 243 00:11:51.000 --> 00:11:55.919 whas dot com. So there is a new law in 244 00:11:56.000 --> 00:12:00.159 place that impacts teachers in Kentucky as well as coach. 245 00:12:00.960 --> 00:12:03.799 This is from Senate Bill one any One, and it 246 00:12:03.840 --> 00:12:06.840 went into effect just recently. It now restricts how public 247 00:12:06.879 --> 00:12:09.840 school employees and volunteers meeting coaches and those that work 248 00:12:09.840 --> 00:12:11.919 in the school that maybe are not full time or 249 00:12:11.919 --> 00:12:15.080 maybe just volunteer, but it restricts how they can communicate 250 00:12:15.679 --> 00:12:18.399 with students. And this is to prevent child sex abuse. 251 00:12:18.480 --> 00:12:22.200 So you'll have no texting, social media or third party 252 00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:25.679 app communications with students, no messaging to students' personal emails. 253 00:12:25.720 --> 00:12:28.799 All communication is going to be going through a traceable 254 00:12:29.120 --> 00:12:32.320 school channel. And I'm sure the school systems are still 255 00:12:32.480 --> 00:12:35.200 working to put that together. Maybe they have it, but 256 00:12:36.120 --> 00:12:39.080 everything you do as far as communicating with any student 257 00:12:39.200 --> 00:12:42.559 will now be traceable, which again, all that makes sense, 258 00:12:42.600 --> 00:12:47.200 but I do think there's clearly some challenges that are 259 00:12:47.200 --> 00:12:49.759 going to be involved here, and overall, I think if 260 00:12:49.759 --> 00:12:53.480 you just instant reaction, especially those that aren't maybe in 261 00:12:53.480 --> 00:12:55.720 the school system, don't coach, don't have kids, they just. 262 00:12:55.679 --> 00:12:56.399 Think, yeah, it makes sense. 263 00:12:56.399 --> 00:12:59.360 Why would any teacher need to be texting their student directly, 264 00:12:59.399 --> 00:13:01.919 Why would any teacher need to be right, you know, 265 00:13:02.039 --> 00:13:07.120 friends with one of their students on social media on Facebook. 266 00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:08.879 I mean I saw somebody that I know that's a 267 00:13:08.919 --> 00:13:11.399 teacher that did just let everybody know, hey, I have 268 00:13:11.480 --> 00:13:13.879 to defriend you if you were currently a student, which 269 00:13:14.559 --> 00:13:16.720 I didn't know high school kids were on Facebook. But 270 00:13:16.759 --> 00:13:18.200 again what do I know. I don't know what high 271 00:13:18.240 --> 00:13:23.559 school kids do or whatnot. But anyways, this JCPS teachers 272 00:13:23.600 --> 00:13:27.279 they have until JCPS staff they have until August first, 273 00:13:28.279 --> 00:13:31.200 and they must use only JCPS email or communicate via parents. 274 00:13:31.559 --> 00:13:33.720 But post August first, JCPS is going to adopt a 275 00:13:33.759 --> 00:13:37.679 standardized traceable communication method, So school statewide have until August 276 00:13:37.720 --> 00:13:42.399 fifteenth to comply with this law. And when I think 277 00:13:42.440 --> 00:13:45.840 of high school, I think of I think of athletics, 278 00:13:45.840 --> 00:13:48.080 I think of basketball. I played basketball in high school. 279 00:13:48.120 --> 00:13:50.240 Is a huge part of my life. My high school 280 00:13:50.279 --> 00:13:53.759 coach was is still a huge impact on has had 281 00:13:53.799 --> 00:13:55.519 a huge impact on my life, and is somebody that 282 00:13:55.559 --> 00:13:58.720 I was very close with that I believe had a 283 00:13:58.840 --> 00:14:02.080 huge positive impact on my life. And had this been 284 00:14:02.120 --> 00:14:06.159 in place at that time, that really wouldn't have been possible. 285 00:14:07.039 --> 00:14:09.759 So here is a list of what you can and 286 00:14:09.879 --> 00:14:14.039 can't do with this new law in place. You can't 287 00:14:14.080 --> 00:14:17.120 send a private text message directly to students. You can't 288 00:14:17.200 --> 00:14:19.879 use personal email to communicate with students. You can't message 289 00:14:19.879 --> 00:14:23.279 students via social media rather than be Instagram, Facebook, Snapchat 290 00:14:23.440 --> 00:14:27.639 x Twitter. You can't like, comment, retweet, or otherwise engage 291 00:14:27.679 --> 00:14:32.559 in two way interaction on students social media posts. You 292 00:14:32.600 --> 00:14:36.360 can't use non traceable apps, which of course are dms 293 00:14:36.440 --> 00:14:39.240 and WhatsApp when it comes to communicating with students. You 294 00:14:39.320 --> 00:14:42.440 also can't communicate one on one with a student electronically 295 00:14:42.440 --> 00:14:46.200 without using district approved platforms or including parents. Now what 296 00:14:46.320 --> 00:14:49.039 you can do on the CANS list. You can use 297 00:14:49.600 --> 00:14:54.000 school approved traceable platforms like Google, Classroom, district Email, parent Square, 298 00:14:54.000 --> 00:14:56.679 which I guess is a platform, include parents in direct 299 00:14:56.720 --> 00:15:00.120 electronic communication when and if allowed by district community k 300 00:15:00.240 --> 00:15:04.120 through district issued devices, accounts that track and log all 301 00:15:04.159 --> 00:15:08.679 messages use approved parent communication like apps like remind or 302 00:15:08.759 --> 00:15:10.480 parent Square. I don't know what those are, but I'm 303 00:15:10.519 --> 00:15:13.519 sure they're popular within that within the you know that community. 304 00:15:14.320 --> 00:15:18.240 You can use that to share announcements, just communicate on schedules, 305 00:15:18.240 --> 00:15:20.519 that kind of stuff. Also, you can communicate with with 306 00:15:20.600 --> 00:15:24.399 your own children or immediate family via personal school channels 307 00:15:24.399 --> 00:15:25.960 if you know you're related, right, if you have a 308 00:15:26.600 --> 00:15:28.759 if one of your students happens to be your son 309 00:15:28.840 --> 00:15:30.879 or daughter, clearly they're not going to limit what you 310 00:15:30.879 --> 00:15:35.279 can do in that aspect. But just something something minor 311 00:15:35.639 --> 00:15:37.120 that and this is in the end of the world. 312 00:15:37.159 --> 00:15:39.759 But let's say. 313 00:15:40.279 --> 00:15:42.799 Let's say I'm a I'm a high school basketball coach 314 00:15:43.200 --> 00:15:46.039 and John Alden is my star player, and he is 315 00:15:46.080 --> 00:15:49.519 a star and he just picked up his dream offer 316 00:15:49.919 --> 00:15:53.519 from the Indiana Hoosiers. Daring DeVries said he's seen enough. 317 00:15:53.559 --> 00:15:57.519 He wants John Alden to wear the stripes. He wants 318 00:15:57.600 --> 00:16:00.320 him to wear the the uh, you know, going to 319 00:16:00.360 --> 00:16:03.799 be a Hoosier. I can't congratulate John on the offer 320 00:16:03.840 --> 00:16:07.720 on social media because I'm violating the law. I mean again, 321 00:16:08.080 --> 00:16:10.279 I mean again, that's an extreme example. But like to 322 00:16:10.360 --> 00:16:13.480 know that you now can't do that. It's crazy, you 323 00:16:13.519 --> 00:16:16.360 can't even I mean, like, I guess there's one thing 324 00:16:16.399 --> 00:16:19.879 in if you this is where maybe there's there's a 325 00:16:19.879 --> 00:16:22.639 gray area. If I wanted to go to Facebook and 326 00:16:22.679 --> 00:16:27.720 say great game tonight, really proud of my team. Scott 327 00:16:27.759 --> 00:16:31.080 Fitzgerald was was an animal on the backboard. If I 328 00:16:31.120 --> 00:16:34.440 don't tag him, is that okay? Can you say their name? 329 00:16:35.399 --> 00:16:38.679 Because that's not really interacting, that's just yes. I mean, 330 00:16:38.720 --> 00:16:40.720 I wouldn't be challenging this because I don't you know, 331 00:16:41.799 --> 00:16:43.080 one you don't want to be. 332 00:16:42.840 --> 00:16:44.639 Because here's here, here's here's the issue. 333 00:16:45.159 --> 00:16:46.679 You don't First of all, you don't want to violate 334 00:16:46.679 --> 00:16:49.879 the law and get in trouble, right, But also I 335 00:16:49.879 --> 00:16:52.600 think most people when they hear somebody that does get 336 00:16:52.600 --> 00:16:55.960 in trouble because of this Senate bill onine eighty one, 337 00:16:56.159 --> 00:16:59.120 they're probably just going to think they were being very inappropriate. 338 00:16:59.200 --> 00:17:01.480 And because that's why this is in place, because too 339 00:17:01.480 --> 00:17:04.640 many coaches too many. Too many teachers over the years 340 00:17:04.759 --> 00:17:08.240 have been able to communicate and it's not against the law, 341 00:17:08.640 --> 00:17:10.880 and they clearly cross the line that you can't cross. 342 00:17:10.920 --> 00:17:12.720 So that's why this is in place. 343 00:17:12.759 --> 00:17:15.720 But there's going to be some big adjustments and certainly 344 00:17:15.720 --> 00:17:16.920 some downsides to. 345 00:17:16.839 --> 00:17:17.400 It as well. 346 00:17:17.440 --> 00:17:20.480 But I'd say if the overall goal here is to 347 00:17:20.599 --> 00:17:25.400 keep teachers and coaches from crossing that line that many 348 00:17:25.440 --> 00:17:28.079 have crossed, and that's worth doing. But it wouldn't be 349 00:17:28.079 --> 00:17:30.279 shocked if they revisit this and maybe make some adjustments 350 00:17:30.319 --> 00:17:35.319 along the way. But we shall see. All right, Let's 351 00:17:35.359 --> 00:17:37.799 take a look on the other side here at more 352 00:17:37.799 --> 00:17:40.440 of these things that this parenting coach tells us we 353 00:17:40.440 --> 00:17:42.480 should stop saying to our kids, because it makes me 354 00:17:42.519 --> 00:17:44.480 feel like I'm parenting wrong and that makes me worried. 355 00:17:44.480 --> 00:17:47.599 But maybe I'm not alone. Trapping weather updates coming up 356 00:17:47.640 --> 00:17:49.920 right here right now on news radio eight forty whas. 357 00:17:51.640 --> 00:17:54.759 You may have picked up on this already, but at 358 00:17:54.839 --> 00:17:57.839 times can have a pretty childish sense of humor. I 359 00:17:57.880 --> 00:18:01.000 don't know why I find this so funny, and it happens. 360 00:18:01.200 --> 00:18:03.920 And what I mean is the news channels that will 361 00:18:03.920 --> 00:18:07.240 interview someone for a story and and mention their name, 362 00:18:07.319 --> 00:18:10.119 and then mention you know who they are, and just 363 00:18:10.160 --> 00:18:12.200 to give some context to why they're talking to this person, 364 00:18:12.279 --> 00:18:15.240 let me give you an example. I remember whenever I don't remember. 365 00:18:15.440 --> 00:18:17.559 It was one of the many controversies that U of 366 00:18:17.720 --> 00:18:21.599 L had over over the years, many years ago, and 367 00:18:22.039 --> 00:18:24.079 one of the news stations, and this is probably somebody 368 00:18:24.119 --> 00:18:25.920 on the younger side. They just did not realize who 369 00:18:25.920 --> 00:18:29.599 it was they were speaking to. But they interviewed Milt 370 00:18:29.640 --> 00:18:31.839 Wagner to get his thoughts, who, of course is a 371 00:18:31.920 --> 00:18:34.759 legendary Louisville basketball player, and instead of mentioning, you know, 372 00:18:34.839 --> 00:18:39.680 former cardinal national champion, it just said Louisville fan and 373 00:18:40.039 --> 00:18:42.400 you know that just that's probably a harmless miss it's 374 00:18:42.400 --> 00:18:44.640 an honest mistake, but like it's just it's a bad look. Well, 375 00:18:44.640 --> 00:18:46.200 I'm looking here and I don't know what I think this. 376 00:18:46.440 --> 00:18:48.039 I think this is a screen grab for might be 377 00:18:48.079 --> 00:18:51.200 drb uh. But they're they're interviewing folks, I assume about 378 00:18:51.240 --> 00:18:54.039 the Kroger locations across the country that are closing, and 379 00:18:54.039 --> 00:18:56.160 certainly there's there's some here in Kentucky, one in Louisville, 380 00:18:56.160 --> 00:18:59.000 and they're getting the community's thoughts on it, and John 381 00:18:59.039 --> 00:19:03.079 it says the person's name is Antoine Pleasants, and it 382 00:19:03.160 --> 00:19:08.000 says lives in Kroger. How does one obtain residency in Kroger? 383 00:19:08.039 --> 00:19:10.200 That would be in krog would be a cool place 384 00:19:10.240 --> 00:19:11.680 to live, right, Yeah, LI were. 385 00:19:11.519 --> 00:19:14.039 Seeing those videos where this is a while back. People 386 00:19:14.119 --> 00:19:15.839 used to like they would spend the night in a 387 00:19:15.880 --> 00:19:18.400 grocery store and they would like take a bunch of 388 00:19:18.400 --> 00:19:20.160 stuff and they would hide in one of the shelves. 389 00:19:20.200 --> 00:19:21.440 Oh yeah, that's what this guy's doing. 390 00:19:21.559 --> 00:19:24.279 I mean, could be And there's worse places to to, 391 00:19:24.440 --> 00:19:25.799 you know, to lay your head at night. And there's 392 00:19:25.799 --> 00:19:27.960 a lot of a lot of I mean unlimited food, right, 393 00:19:28.039 --> 00:19:30.279 I mean, you can keep yourself busy. Of course, you'd 394 00:19:30.279 --> 00:19:32.240 have to clean up whenever they whenever they reopen. But 395 00:19:32.279 --> 00:19:35.200 I assume they meant lives near Kroger. But yeah, look, 396 00:19:35.200 --> 00:19:38.720 we all make mistakes, it happens, but lives in Kroger. 397 00:19:38.799 --> 00:19:40.440 I would I would. I would hope that's a mistake. 398 00:19:40.480 --> 00:19:42.440 But maybe maybe he's upset and they're talking to him 399 00:19:42.440 --> 00:19:45.079 because he's not only losing his grocery stores, losing his home. 400 00:19:45.519 --> 00:19:48.480 That's pretty a pretty big hit for somebody, all right. 401 00:19:48.519 --> 00:19:50.319
