1
00:00:03.000 --> 00:00:07.120
<v Speaker 1>It's time for coffee and company, fueled by Thornton's on

2
00:00:07.320 --> 00:00:23.320
<v Speaker 1>Sports Talk seven nine day. Now here's Nick Coffee.

3
00:00:25.239 --> 00:00:29.239
<v Speaker 2>I think at some point we will no longer be shocked.

4
00:00:29.239 --> 00:00:31.199
<v Speaker 2>And maybe that's already happened for some people. It kind

5
00:00:31.199 --> 00:00:33.200
<v Speaker 2>of has for me. But when I say no longer

6
00:00:33.240 --> 00:00:38.679
<v Speaker 2>be shocked, I'm talking about stories of some funny business

7
00:00:38.679 --> 00:00:42.320
<v Speaker 2>going on with college athletes and sports books. I mean,

8
00:00:42.439 --> 00:00:44.079
<v Speaker 2>the first big one that I can think of since

9
00:00:44.119 --> 00:00:46.799
<v Speaker 2>it became you know, I mean, it's been legal in

10
00:00:46.840 --> 00:00:49.479
<v Speaker 2>a lot of states for multiple years.

11
00:00:49.479 --> 00:00:49.640
<v Speaker 1>Now.

12
00:00:49.640 --> 00:00:53.280
<v Speaker 2>It's relatively new here in Kentucky, but you know, it

13
00:00:53.320 --> 00:00:55.320
<v Speaker 2>grows every year as far as the amount of people

14
00:00:55.359 --> 00:00:58.079
<v Speaker 2>who are in fact wagering on sports legally, rather it

15
00:00:58.079 --> 00:01:00.280
<v Speaker 2>be from an app on their phone or in person

16
00:01:00.719 --> 00:01:03.520
<v Speaker 2>at a sports book. And uh, you know, with it

17
00:01:03.560 --> 00:01:06.840
<v Speaker 2>being a growing and booming thing, it's it really shouldn't

18
00:01:06.840 --> 00:01:09.840
<v Speaker 2>be considered some big surprise that you find out that

19
00:01:09.879 --> 00:01:12.280
<v Speaker 2>there's some players and or coaches that are you know,

20
00:01:12.400 --> 00:01:15.280
<v Speaker 2>that are doing things that you can't do, and they

21
00:01:15.319 --> 00:01:19.439
<v Speaker 2>are making mistakes that are resulting in the NC doualea.

22
00:01:19.879 --> 00:01:24.000
<v Speaker 2>Some of these universities themselves, leagues like the NBA, the NFL,

23
00:01:24.159 --> 00:01:26.319
<v Speaker 2>they're gonna make examples of you because that's all they

24
00:01:26.359 --> 00:01:28.439
<v Speaker 2>can do. I mean, it's not going anywhere. You're gonna

25
00:01:28.439 --> 00:01:32.719
<v Speaker 2>always be able to gamble on sports moving forward, unless

26
00:01:32.799 --> 00:01:35.000
<v Speaker 2>you know, something unforeseen happens to where they like take

27
00:01:35.040 --> 00:01:37.480
<v Speaker 2>it away. But that's not happening because everybody's benefiting from it,

28
00:01:37.519 --> 00:01:39.959
<v Speaker 2>to be honest with you, And I don't mean everybody's

29
00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:41.879
<v Speaker 2>winning money, but like it's it's a very boom. It's

30
00:01:41.879 --> 00:01:46.159
<v Speaker 2>a booming business. And you know, heck, now you've got

31
00:01:46.519 --> 00:01:49.079
<v Speaker 2>the Bally Sports channels that used to be the Fox

32
00:01:49.079 --> 00:01:52.920
<v Speaker 2>Sports regionals. It's been a huge mess because no TV

33
00:01:53.000 --> 00:01:55.359
<v Speaker 2>provider seems to have them, Like it's really really hard

34
00:01:55.359 --> 00:01:59.439
<v Speaker 2>to get anything. Well, they, I guess, got a lifeline

35
00:01:59.480 --> 00:02:03.000
<v Speaker 2>where they're going to be funded by FanDuel sportsbooks. So

36
00:02:03.000 --> 00:02:05.439
<v Speaker 2>when you tune in to watch whatever games are on

37
00:02:05.480 --> 00:02:08.159
<v Speaker 2>those stations, if it's you know, if it's the Reds

38
00:02:08.240 --> 00:02:09.960
<v Speaker 2>or if it's the Pacers or whatever it may be,

39
00:02:10.319 --> 00:02:13.080
<v Speaker 2>whoever has you know, Bally Sports South, Bally Sports Florida.

40
00:02:13.080 --> 00:02:15.000
<v Speaker 2>I don't even know what they call their channels anymore,

41
00:02:15.319 --> 00:02:18.000
<v Speaker 2>but instead of being called Bally, it's gonna be FanDuel.

42
00:02:19.000 --> 00:02:20.960
<v Speaker 2>So I mean, think about that, You're going to be

43
00:02:21.039 --> 00:02:26.439
<v Speaker 2>watching live sports, some college, obviously a lot of pro

44
00:02:27.240 --> 00:02:30.520
<v Speaker 2>and it's going to be wrapped in a network that

45
00:02:30.680 --> 00:02:33.439
<v Speaker 2>is essentially a network that is one of the biggest

46
00:02:33.439 --> 00:02:35.680
<v Speaker 2>sports books on the planet. I mean, it's not that

47
00:02:35.759 --> 00:02:39.400
<v Speaker 2>crazy now because again it's it's not brand new and

48
00:02:39.439 --> 00:02:41.960
<v Speaker 2>it's boomed for years now. But just think about ten

49
00:02:42.039 --> 00:02:45.560
<v Speaker 2>years ago knowing you're watching a professional baseball or professional

50
00:02:45.560 --> 00:02:48.840
<v Speaker 2>basketball game and the network is a sports like you know,

51
00:02:48.919 --> 00:02:51.360
<v Speaker 2>it's it's a sports book essentially. It's just, you know,

52
00:02:51.360 --> 00:02:56.599
<v Speaker 2>it's crazy. So d NBA, what do they They banned

53
00:02:57.000 --> 00:03:00.719
<v Speaker 2>Javonte Porter for life. You've had the coach at Alabama,

54
00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:04.280
<v Speaker 2>the baseball coach who was you know, providing information to

55
00:03:04.319 --> 00:03:07.120
<v Speaker 2>somebody that was making making bets for them, Like heck,

56
00:03:07.159 --> 00:03:10.000
<v Speaker 2>there was point shaving going on with like Iowa, like

57
00:03:10.080 --> 00:03:13.639
<v Speaker 2>it it's there have been a handful of of, you know,

58
00:03:13.759 --> 00:03:16.240
<v Speaker 2>stories that that you know are probably scary to people

59
00:03:16.240 --> 00:03:18.199
<v Speaker 2>who worry, oh, this is getting out of hand, but

60
00:03:18.240 --> 00:03:20.159
<v Speaker 2>like it was, it was inevitable that it was going

61
00:03:20.199 --> 00:03:22.080
<v Speaker 2>to happen, and all these all you can do is

62
00:03:22.199 --> 00:03:25.719
<v Speaker 2>make examples of people who do this, rather it be

63
00:03:26.240 --> 00:03:28.400
<v Speaker 2>you banning them from playing in the n C Double

64
00:03:28.439 --> 00:03:31.120
<v Speaker 2>A like, you know, you say that they're no longer eligible.

65
00:03:31.479 --> 00:03:33.879
<v Speaker 2>Schools dismissed them, ban them from the league. And then

66
00:03:33.879 --> 00:03:36.039
<v Speaker 2>some of these people face criminal charges because you know

67
00:03:36.159 --> 00:03:38.719
<v Speaker 2>you can't do that. It's illegal to to shave points. Essentially.

68
00:03:38.759 --> 00:03:40.520
<v Speaker 2>I know that's not the actual charge that it is,

69
00:03:40.560 --> 00:03:43.719
<v Speaker 2>but people learn the hard way, and I don't think

70
00:03:43.759 --> 00:03:46.240
<v Speaker 2>they'll ever be a time where it never happens. But

71
00:03:47.719 --> 00:03:50.159
<v Speaker 2>you know, some people are still very surprised to see this.

72
00:03:50.400 --> 00:03:52.560
<v Speaker 2>But I you know, and and maybe I should be.

73
00:03:52.639 --> 00:03:58.759
<v Speaker 2>But there's a college basketball story that that involves point

74
00:03:58.800 --> 00:04:01.439
<v Speaker 2>shaving that when we don't have all the details here,

75
00:04:01.479 --> 00:04:03.400
<v Speaker 2>but I just read as best I could during the

76
00:04:03.400 --> 00:04:05.639
<v Speaker 2>break there. Pat Forty at Sports Illustrated apparently one of

77
00:04:05.680 --> 00:04:09.039
<v Speaker 2>the big transfers for the Virginia Tech program, Heijer Miller.

78
00:04:09.400 --> 00:04:13.400
<v Speaker 2>He has been dismissed from Virginia Tech after transferring from

79
00:04:13.479 --> 00:04:19.240
<v Speaker 2>Temple because you know, allegedly he shaped points. I'm reading here,

80
00:04:19.279 --> 00:04:21.439
<v Speaker 2>it's just some of the details. Temple last year, who

81
00:04:21.480 --> 00:04:24.600
<v Speaker 2>you know, they weren't they weren't very good, but they

82
00:04:24.600 --> 00:04:28.319
<v Speaker 2>had a basketball game flag they played UAB on March seventh,

83
00:04:28.319 --> 00:04:32.040
<v Speaker 2>and that game was flagged by a gambling watchdog company,

84
00:04:33.000 --> 00:04:36.240
<v Speaker 2>US Integrity for an unusual fluctuation in the point spread

85
00:04:36.279 --> 00:04:39.160
<v Speaker 2>in the hours before the game. One casino the line

86
00:04:39.199 --> 00:04:41.199
<v Speaker 2>moved from UAB is a one and a half point

87
00:04:41.240 --> 00:04:44.079
<v Speaker 2>favorite over Temple at the beginning of the day, UAB

88
00:04:44.319 --> 00:04:48.000
<v Speaker 2>was an eight point favorite. Yeah, yeah, it says here

89
00:04:48.000 --> 00:04:50.839
<v Speaker 2>that one casino the line moved from UAB as a

90
00:04:50.839 --> 00:04:52.839
<v Speaker 2>one and a half point favorite over Temple at the

91
00:04:52.879 --> 00:04:55.160
<v Speaker 2>beginning of the day to UAB is an eight point

92
00:04:55.199 --> 00:04:58.920
<v Speaker 2>favorite by mid afternoon, then settled at seven closer to

93
00:04:58.959 --> 00:05:03.120
<v Speaker 2>tip off. So this was the second straight loss for Temple.

94
00:05:03.120 --> 00:05:05.480
<v Speaker 2>They ended up losing that game, and it's the second

95
00:05:05.480 --> 00:05:08.160
<v Speaker 2>straight game where they did not come close to covering

96
00:05:08.199 --> 00:05:12.000
<v Speaker 2>the spread. So you know you're gonna I'm sure you

97
00:05:12.079 --> 00:05:13.680
<v Speaker 2>can do it, and I'm sure plenty have done it

98
00:05:13.720 --> 00:05:15.639
<v Speaker 2>and not made it obvious. Like it's scary to think about.

99
00:05:15.720 --> 00:05:17.439
<v Speaker 2>Maybe it bothers people you don't want to think about it,

100
00:05:17.439 --> 00:05:19.319
<v Speaker 2>But like, I'm not that naive to think that we

101
00:05:19.360 --> 00:05:22.240
<v Speaker 2>haven't watched sports with somebody out there involved in the

102
00:05:22.279 --> 00:05:24.600
<v Speaker 2>action being well aware of what a spread is, what

103
00:05:24.639 --> 00:05:27.680
<v Speaker 2>a total is all that kind of stuff. But this

104
00:05:27.759 --> 00:05:30.560
<v Speaker 2>guy transferred from Temple once this story kind of you know,

105
00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:33.199
<v Speaker 2>they didn't know any details. They just know that it

106
00:05:33.240 --> 00:05:36.839
<v Speaker 2>was those I mean, nobody in real time was punished

107
00:05:37.360 --> 00:05:40.879
<v Speaker 2>by the NC douablea or anything else. But this kid

108
00:05:40.920 --> 00:05:42.720
<v Speaker 2>has transferred a game as a leading scorer at Temple,

109
00:05:42.759 --> 00:05:45.439
<v Speaker 2>he transferred to Virginia Tech, and as the season is

110
00:05:45.439 --> 00:05:48.000
<v Speaker 2>about to start, he's been dismissed. And Pat Forty claims

111
00:05:48.000 --> 00:05:50.399
<v Speaker 2>that his sources tell him that it is due to

112
00:05:50.879 --> 00:05:52.759
<v Speaker 2>the information that they have here. So maybe this is

113
00:05:52.759 --> 00:05:54.199
<v Speaker 2>a guy that was maybe the ring leader.

114
00:05:54.199 --> 00:05:54.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't know.

115
00:05:54.519 --> 00:05:57.439
<v Speaker 2>Maybe he was absolutely shaving points and you know he

116
00:05:57.480 --> 00:05:59.959
<v Speaker 2>got caught. You can't do that. Not only is he

117
00:06:00.040 --> 00:06:01.959
<v Speaker 2>not gonna be able to play Virginia Tech, he's probably gonna,

118
00:06:02.000 --> 00:06:03.959
<v Speaker 2>you know, be in some legal trouble too. Is this

119
00:06:04.000 --> 00:06:06.240
<v Speaker 2>thing unfold So you know, it's never a good story.

120
00:06:06.720 --> 00:06:08.319
<v Speaker 2>It's just you got to keep in mind there was

121
00:06:08.360 --> 00:06:10.800
<v Speaker 2>no scenario when those who were fighting like hell to

122
00:06:10.879 --> 00:06:14.959
<v Speaker 2>make sports wagering legal in states across the country, including

123
00:06:14.959 --> 00:06:18.560
<v Speaker 2>this one, those that are you know, in power, that

124
00:06:18.639 --> 00:06:21.439
<v Speaker 2>have influence, they knew that there would be things like

125
00:06:21.480 --> 00:06:23.040
<v Speaker 2>this that happen, and all you can do is just

126
00:06:23.120 --> 00:06:25.720
<v Speaker 2>make examples and hold those accountable to do it in

127
00:06:25.800 --> 00:06:29.879
<v Speaker 2>hopes that others won't be that stupid. I mean, it

128
00:06:29.920 --> 00:06:32.639
<v Speaker 2>ain't worth it. I mean that goes without saying. If

129
00:06:32.639 --> 00:06:34.879
<v Speaker 2>you're a pro athlete, even if you're a college athlete,

130
00:06:34.959 --> 00:06:38.800
<v Speaker 2>like some quick money can can go a long way,

131
00:06:38.920 --> 00:06:42.160
<v Speaker 2>but you're eventually going to get caught and it'll ruin

132
00:06:42.199 --> 00:06:45.560
<v Speaker 2>your life. And who would want that to happen? All right,

133
00:06:45.560 --> 00:06:47.439
<v Speaker 2>it's coffee and Company. We are feel about Thorton's here

134
00:06:47.439 --> 00:06:49.199
<v Speaker 2>on Sports Talk seven ninety. Thanks for hanging out with

135
00:06:49.279 --> 00:06:53.480
<v Speaker 2>us here on a beautiful Wednesday afternoon. We've got Kendrick

136
00:06:53.519 --> 00:06:55.560
<v Speaker 2>Haskins of Way three Sports coming up here at about

137
00:06:55.560 --> 00:06:58.319
<v Speaker 2>five point thirty. We'll get his thoughts on where each

138
00:06:58.879 --> 00:07:02.000
<v Speaker 2>of the football program around here currently are. The ones

139
00:07:02.000 --> 00:07:04.920
<v Speaker 2>who you know are are sad and underwhelmed with their team.

140
00:07:04.959 --> 00:07:06.040
<v Speaker 2>That's Louisville and Kentucky.

141
00:07:06.079 --> 00:07:06.439
<v Speaker 3>Indiana.

142
00:07:06.439 --> 00:07:08.720
<v Speaker 2>On the other hand, not as many Indiana football fans

143
00:07:08.759 --> 00:07:11.959
<v Speaker 2>around here in the Kentucky and area, but clearly you

144
00:07:12.000 --> 00:07:13.879
<v Speaker 2>can hear them. They're louder now than they've ever been.

145
00:07:13.920 --> 00:07:16.000
<v Speaker 2>They've probably just been you know, chilling, not having a

146
00:07:16.040 --> 00:07:17.839
<v Speaker 2>whole lot to cheer about for many, many years. But

147
00:07:17.920 --> 00:07:21.759
<v Speaker 2>now they got the candy stripe pants on. They're sigged

148
00:07:21.839 --> 00:07:24.319
<v Speaker 2>up in a major way. And I'm jealous.

149
00:07:24.360 --> 00:07:27.000
<v Speaker 4>If Indiana goes to the college football playoff, I'll come

150
00:07:27.040 --> 00:07:28.600
<v Speaker 4>to work in my candy stripe pants.

151
00:07:29.000 --> 00:07:30.879
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you got to do something bigger than that,

152
00:07:30.959 --> 00:07:33.240
<v Speaker 2>Like you gotta get like a tattoo or signetti.

153
00:07:32.839 --> 00:07:36.360
<v Speaker 4>Non tattooing and signetti on my face or wherever Signette's

154
00:07:36.360 --> 00:07:37.120
<v Speaker 4>face on my body.

155
00:07:37.079 --> 00:07:40.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, to put Signettes's face like on your calf or something.

156
00:07:40.759 --> 00:07:42.439
<v Speaker 2>I can respect it because I would There's nothing I

157
00:07:42.439 --> 00:07:44.480
<v Speaker 2>would ever get it. I mean, do you have any

158
00:07:44.480 --> 00:07:45.600
<v Speaker 2>tattoos that I've never seen?

159
00:07:45.720 --> 00:07:45.879
<v Speaker 1>No?

160
00:07:45.959 --> 00:07:48.040
<v Speaker 2>I don't either, and I'm not anti tattooed like people

161
00:07:48.079 --> 00:07:49.560
<v Speaker 2>who have them cool. I mean I think some people

162
00:07:49.600 --> 00:07:52.759
<v Speaker 2>look bad ass with their tattoos. I could never There's

163
00:07:52.800 --> 00:07:55.480
<v Speaker 2>never anything I would want on my body forever. So

164
00:07:55.800 --> 00:07:58.920
<v Speaker 2>you know, even if my team won, you know, five

165
00:07:59.000 --> 00:08:01.560
<v Speaker 2>consecutive titles, like, I wouldn't. I would never get a

166
00:08:01.600 --> 00:08:05.399
<v Speaker 2>tattoo of anything. So you know, we got to think

167
00:08:05.399 --> 00:08:07.439
<v Speaker 2>of something else because just wearing the candy strap, I mean,

168
00:08:07.519 --> 00:08:09.680
<v Speaker 2>John you do that every day. That's your religion. You're

169
00:08:09.680 --> 00:08:11.439
<v Speaker 2>a candy striped guy. Like, we got to think of

170
00:08:11.480 --> 00:08:14.399
<v Speaker 2>something special that you'll do. And I don't mean like,

171
00:08:14.480 --> 00:08:17.560
<v Speaker 2>you know, torture yourself or eat a live animal on

172
00:08:17.600 --> 00:08:19.759
<v Speaker 2>the air. I mean like you got but you gotta do.

173
00:08:19.800 --> 00:08:21.560
<v Speaker 2>We gotta do something big for you. If they get there,

174
00:08:21.560 --> 00:08:23.160
<v Speaker 2>which I think they're going to look, I mean, look

175
00:08:23.199 --> 00:08:26.360
<v Speaker 2>at look at where they are, look at their path.

176
00:08:27.040 --> 00:08:29.959
<v Speaker 2>I'd say it's way more likely than unlikely that they

177
00:08:30.000 --> 00:08:32.679
<v Speaker 2>don't end up there. I mean, maybe I'm way off here.

178
00:08:32.759 --> 00:08:36.120
<v Speaker 2>Maybe we learn the hard way that Rourke's injury is

179
00:08:36.120 --> 00:08:37.679
<v Speaker 2>going to keep him out longer than one game, and

180
00:08:37.720 --> 00:08:39.320
<v Speaker 2>they needed him more than maybe you thought.

181
00:08:39.440 --> 00:08:42.360
<v Speaker 4>But it just requires you to at least go eleven

182
00:08:42.399 --> 00:08:44.720
<v Speaker 4>to one. I feel like, yeah, and just can't slip

183
00:08:44.759 --> 00:08:46.440
<v Speaker 4>up against you know, in Michigan State next week or

184
00:08:46.480 --> 00:08:48.840
<v Speaker 4>even this week. We know you're without Curtis Rourke at home.

185
00:08:48.919 --> 00:08:50.440
<v Speaker 2>Michigan's never looked more beatable.

186
00:08:50.840 --> 00:08:53.120
<v Speaker 4>And I think Indiana is gonna kill Michigan.

187
00:08:53.200 --> 00:08:55.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, who you more worried about outside of Ohio State.

188
00:08:56.000 --> 00:08:59.000
<v Speaker 4>This week against Washington just because of the circumstances of

189
00:08:59.039 --> 00:09:01.039
<v Speaker 4>Michigan State on the road next week just.

190
00:09:00.960 --> 00:09:03.159
<v Speaker 2>Because of the Trap game, because they suck. Yes, I mean,

191
00:09:03.200 --> 00:09:04.720
<v Speaker 2>Boston College beat Michigan State.

192
00:09:04.799 --> 00:09:08.000
<v Speaker 4>But after that, though, I mean after the Michigan State

193
00:09:08.000 --> 00:09:09.600
<v Speaker 4>game on the road, you have Michigan at home, you

194
00:09:09.600 --> 00:09:11.320
<v Speaker 4>have Ohio State on the road, and then you finished

195
00:09:11.320 --> 00:09:11.919
<v Speaker 4>with Purdue.

196
00:09:12.039 --> 00:09:12.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

197
00:09:12.399 --> 00:09:16.399
<v Speaker 2>And look, Louisville was there last year after their sixth

198
00:09:16.440 --> 00:09:18.279
<v Speaker 2>game or fifth game, whatever it was. And obviously we

199
00:09:18.320 --> 00:09:21.440
<v Speaker 2>know they turned around and lost to Pittsburgh, a bad team,

200
00:09:21.480 --> 00:09:23.960
<v Speaker 2>and they weren't blowing teams out at least not consistently

201
00:09:23.960 --> 00:09:25.480
<v Speaker 2>the way that Indiana has up to this point. So

202
00:09:25.480 --> 00:09:27.559
<v Speaker 2>I'm not really making the comparison, but I can. I

203
00:09:27.559 --> 00:09:29.440
<v Speaker 2>can take you back to last year for me when

204
00:09:29.440 --> 00:09:32.840
<v Speaker 2>I'm thinking like I'm nervous, I'm scared, but not of

205
00:09:32.919 --> 00:09:36.240
<v Speaker 2>one opponent. I'm just thinking like, man, it'd be great

206
00:09:36.279 --> 00:09:39.679
<v Speaker 2>if we don't screw this up. Yeah, and I'm yeah yeah,

207
00:09:39.720 --> 00:09:42.159
<v Speaker 2>And you know, Louisville did screw it up. They lost

208
00:09:42.159 --> 00:09:44.200
<v Speaker 2>a pit and in the end, I still feel like

209
00:09:44.279 --> 00:09:47.960
<v Speaker 2>that team probably it probably capped out, and ten wins

210
00:09:48.000 --> 00:09:50.720
<v Speaker 2>was really his best. It was as good as well eleven,

211
00:09:50.759 --> 00:09:54.200
<v Speaker 2>because I mean, heck, maybe twelve, because let's be I

212
00:09:54.240 --> 00:09:58.039
<v Speaker 2>mean again, it it's not worth even going down this

213
00:09:58.080 --> 00:10:01.519
<v Speaker 2>path because you lost both games. But like you played

214
00:10:01.519 --> 00:10:03.679
<v Speaker 2>pit ten times, you probably win nine out of ten

215
00:10:03.720 --> 00:10:05.279
<v Speaker 2>and the one you lost was the one that counted,

216
00:10:05.320 --> 00:10:06.799
<v Speaker 2>you know, so it's what it could have should have

217
00:10:07.080 --> 00:10:09.080
<v Speaker 2>in the Kentucky game, like they had no business losing

218
00:10:09.080 --> 00:10:10.759
<v Speaker 2>that game, and they did. Like Louisville could have gone

219
00:10:10.799 --> 00:10:12.559
<v Speaker 2>twelve and er last year and I would have said,

220
00:10:12.600 --> 00:10:14.759
<v Speaker 2>you know, obviously put them in the four team playoff.

221
00:10:14.759 --> 00:10:18.720
<v Speaker 2>Hell yeah, but you know it would have been truly

222
00:10:18.799 --> 00:10:21.600
<v Speaker 2>because their schedule was a huge factor. Not that they

223
00:10:21.600 --> 00:10:23.399
<v Speaker 2>weren't a good team in general, but like overall they

224
00:10:23.480 --> 00:10:25.679
<v Speaker 2>benefited and they took care of business. Because you could say,

225
00:10:25.720 --> 00:10:27.320
<v Speaker 2>at the end of the year last year, the only

226
00:10:27.360 --> 00:10:29.000
<v Speaker 2>good team you played was Notre Dame. And I'm not

227
00:10:29.000 --> 00:10:30.799
<v Speaker 2>sure how I mean, I shouldn't say the only good team,

228
00:10:30.799 --> 00:10:33.600
<v Speaker 2>the only like respected team, because you ended up playing

229
00:10:33.639 --> 00:10:35.919
<v Speaker 2>some teams that ended up finishing with winning records, and

230
00:10:36.559 --> 00:10:38.159
<v Speaker 2>some teams that you played end up finishing in the

231
00:10:38.159 --> 00:10:40.000
<v Speaker 2>top twenty five that you beat at least a couple

232
00:10:40.000 --> 00:10:42.799
<v Speaker 2>of them. So you know, I know the feeling of

233
00:10:42.840 --> 00:10:45.480
<v Speaker 2>being there and thinking like, well, hey, we've shown we're

234
00:10:45.519 --> 00:10:48.759
<v Speaker 2>clearly good enough. Like it's not a question of can you, like,

235
00:10:48.840 --> 00:10:52.279
<v Speaker 2>can you beat Michigan State? Can you beat Washington like

236
00:10:52.320 --> 00:10:54.559
<v Speaker 2>you know you can. It's just like going and getting

237
00:10:54.559 --> 00:10:57.799
<v Speaker 2>it done. And there's teams every year. In fact, probably

238
00:10:58.639 --> 00:11:02.559
<v Speaker 2>ninety nine percent of the college football programs out there

239
00:11:02.559 --> 00:11:05.440
<v Speaker 2>have a loss every year that they know, Hey, that

240
00:11:05.559 --> 00:11:07.720
<v Speaker 2>was on us more than it was them just being

241
00:11:07.840 --> 00:11:10.799
<v Speaker 2>that much better than us. And it's inevitable it happens

242
00:11:10.799 --> 00:11:13.399
<v Speaker 2>to nearly everybody. But for your sake, John, I'm hoping

243
00:11:13.399 --> 00:11:15.039
<v Speaker 2>it doesn't happen to your Hoosiers. We're also talked to

244
00:11:15.080 --> 00:11:18.399
<v Speaker 2>Kendrick Haskins about some college basketball right we got our

245
00:11:18.759 --> 00:11:20.279
<v Speaker 2>We got a chance to see this Louisville team in

246
00:11:20.320 --> 00:11:23.320
<v Speaker 2>action on Monday night against Young Harris where they bombed

247
00:11:23.360 --> 00:11:26.799
<v Speaker 2>twenty four to threes and look good doing it. Kentucky

248
00:11:26.840 --> 00:11:28.919
<v Speaker 2>in action tonight in their first exhibition game taken on

249
00:11:29.000 --> 00:11:31.799
<v Speaker 2>Kentucky Wesleyan. Somebody on the text line earlier asked me

250
00:11:32.120 --> 00:11:34.120
<v Speaker 2>have you given any thought like what the reaction would

251
00:11:34.159 --> 00:11:36.200
<v Speaker 2>be if Kentucky loses? No, I haven't thought of I mean, like,

252
00:11:36.200 --> 00:11:39.720
<v Speaker 2>they're not losing. I mean, that'd be insane if they

253
00:11:39.759 --> 00:11:42.720
<v Speaker 2>lost to Kentucky Wesleyan, but like, I just don't, I

254
00:11:42.759 --> 00:11:47.039
<v Speaker 2>don't see it happening. I mean, they'll probably win, maybe

255
00:11:47.919 --> 00:11:52.759
<v Speaker 2>at a similar level that Louisville won by I mean Wesleyan,

256
00:11:52.759 --> 00:11:55.960
<v Speaker 2>although is Wesleyan last year and I'm not saying this

257
00:11:56.039 --> 00:11:58.360
<v Speaker 2>because they beat Louisville again. Kenny Payne lost to Kentucky

258
00:11:58.360 --> 00:12:00.720
<v Speaker 2>Westley last year in a game where he only put

259
00:12:00.720 --> 00:12:04.519
<v Speaker 2>in four and five star players, recruits like you had

260
00:12:04.639 --> 00:12:06.840
<v Speaker 2>maybe just on paper, and again, none of that matters

261
00:12:06.879 --> 00:12:09.200
<v Speaker 2>if your team stinks and loses like Louisville did for

262
00:12:09.200 --> 00:12:12.399
<v Speaker 2>two straight years. But like quite literally every player that

263
00:12:12.480 --> 00:12:14.320
<v Speaker 2>like he was using a rotation that you'd use in

264
00:12:14.320 --> 00:12:16.559
<v Speaker 2>a real game in that exhibition because they were that

265
00:12:16.679 --> 00:12:18.759
<v Speaker 2>close all throughout it and then they ended up losing.

266
00:12:19.279 --> 00:12:23.960
<v Speaker 2>So that Westling team I think brings back everybody that played.

267
00:12:24.120 --> 00:12:26.759
<v Speaker 2>I mean, they lost their leading scorer, which of course

268
00:12:26.840 --> 00:12:28.600
<v Speaker 2>is obviously something you don't want to lose, but they

269
00:12:28.600 --> 00:12:31.200
<v Speaker 2>bring back everybody else that played a key role, and

270
00:12:31.240 --> 00:12:33.320
<v Speaker 2>they've added I think one or two guys that jumped

271
00:12:33.320 --> 00:12:35.840
<v Speaker 2>down from D one to D two. So they'll probably

272
00:12:35.879 --> 00:12:38.360
<v Speaker 2>be a better challenge for Kentucky than Young Harris was

273
00:12:38.360 --> 00:12:41.480
<v Speaker 2>for Louisville, but Kentucky will probably still win by a

274
00:12:41.519 --> 00:12:44.360
<v Speaker 2>big margin. However, I did hear a little bit of

275
00:12:44.399 --> 00:12:46.039
<v Speaker 2>KSR this morning, and they were acting as if in

276
00:12:46.080 --> 00:12:49.240
<v Speaker 2>the Blue White Game that nobody got to see because

277
00:12:49.279 --> 00:12:52.279
<v Speaker 2>Mark Pope hates the fans. He didn't want them to

278
00:12:52.279 --> 00:12:53.879
<v Speaker 2>see the Blue White game unless they had a lot

279
00:12:53.879 --> 00:12:55.399
<v Speaker 2>of money. I mean, it's sad that he did it.

280
00:12:55.480 --> 00:12:57.600
<v Speaker 2>I mean, not something I don't want my coach to do,

281
00:12:57.679 --> 00:12:59.440
<v Speaker 2>but that's what he did and that's his choice. I mean,

282
00:12:59.440 --> 00:13:00.720
<v Speaker 2>I hate that he did that to you guys as

283
00:13:00.799 --> 00:13:02.519
<v Speaker 2>Kentucky fans, but he didn't want you to see his

284
00:13:02.519 --> 00:13:06.559
<v Speaker 2>team play. But anyways, apparently they didn't. They didn't shoot well,

285
00:13:07.039 --> 00:13:10.600
<v Speaker 2>which clearly they're gonna rely on three point shooting. Not

286
00:13:10.720 --> 00:13:13.360
<v Speaker 2>as much as Louisville, but like a lot. Like you've

287
00:13:13.360 --> 00:13:16.039
<v Speaker 2>heard me mention this stat before, it's worth mentioning again.

288
00:13:18.559 --> 00:13:22.120
<v Speaker 2>The top three teams last year as far as three

289
00:13:22.159 --> 00:13:26.440
<v Speaker 2>point field goals made, both Pat Kelsey and Mark Pope

290
00:13:26.440 --> 00:13:29.519
<v Speaker 2>were in the top three. Pat Kelcey and Charleston. I

291
00:13:29.559 --> 00:13:32.759
<v Speaker 2>think we're at number two BYU and Pope were three,

292
00:13:32.799 --> 00:13:34.600
<v Speaker 2>and I think number one might have been like North

293
00:13:34.639 --> 00:13:39.039
<v Speaker 2>Florida something. It was a random school. So they have

294
00:13:39.879 --> 00:13:45.440
<v Speaker 2>clearly more traditional front court players, meaning like they've got

295
00:13:45.519 --> 00:13:48.399
<v Speaker 2>dudes who are truly fives that are rim protectors. And

296
00:13:48.480 --> 00:13:49.879
<v Speaker 2>louisll does I mean loud of does two. I mean

297
00:13:49.960 --> 00:13:51.279
<v Speaker 2>James Scott is not a guy that you're going to

298
00:13:51.360 --> 00:13:53.240
<v Speaker 2>really see out on the perimeter a whole lot, but

299
00:13:53.279 --> 00:13:55.120
<v Speaker 2>he is. But he's somebody that they do trust that

300
00:13:55.120 --> 00:13:56.840
<v Speaker 2>if he gets the rebound, he can take off and

301
00:13:56.919 --> 00:14:00.440
<v Speaker 2>go with it. But they're going to play relatively similar,

302
00:14:00.440 --> 00:14:02.159
<v Speaker 2>Like they're gonna shoot. Both teams are gonna shoot a

303
00:14:02.200 --> 00:14:04.720
<v Speaker 2>lot of threes. They're gonna at times have five guys

304
00:14:04.759 --> 00:14:07.360
<v Speaker 2>out on offense, They're gonna spread the floor. I mean,

305
00:14:07.399 --> 00:14:10.000
<v Speaker 2>it's I'm sure there are some differences, and we'll see

306
00:14:10.000 --> 00:14:11.840
<v Speaker 2>it when you when you watch each team play, but

307
00:14:12.159 --> 00:14:14.879
<v Speaker 2>there are certainly some similarities as far as the overall.

308
00:14:16.399 --> 00:14:19.519
<v Speaker 2>You know, the way in which both these coaches want

309
00:14:19.519 --> 00:14:22.200
<v Speaker 2>to play fast, a lot of three points shooting, a

310
00:14:22.200 --> 00:14:26.039
<v Speaker 2>lot of spacing, a ton of passing, and you know,

311
00:14:26.639 --> 00:14:30.279
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if Louisville's implemented it, but it wouldn't

312
00:14:30.279 --> 00:14:31.799
<v Speaker 2>shock me if they have. I mean, these are two

313
00:14:31.879 --> 00:14:34.000
<v Speaker 2>coaches that are now leading these programs in this state

314
00:14:34.519 --> 00:14:36.840
<v Speaker 2>that in practice, and again I don't know I Louiell

315
00:14:36.879 --> 00:14:38.759
<v Speaker 2>was doing it right now, but I know Pat did

316
00:14:38.759 --> 00:14:41.440
<v Speaker 2>it at Charleston. The shot clock in practice is not

317
00:14:42.039 --> 00:14:45.519
<v Speaker 2>is not thirty seconds, it's like fifteen or less, because

318
00:14:45.519 --> 00:14:48.960
<v Speaker 2>that they want to constantly be playing at a faster pace.

319
00:14:49.000 --> 00:14:51.480
<v Speaker 2>That way, it's just repetitive, and it's just, you know,

320
00:14:51.559 --> 00:14:53.759
<v Speaker 2>it's it's second nature to you to just, you know,

321
00:14:53.879 --> 00:14:55.480
<v Speaker 2>not only be out there and executing, but you need

322
00:14:55.519 --> 00:14:57.120
<v Speaker 2>to be playing really really fast, which is gonna lead

323
00:14:57.120 --> 00:15:01.200
<v Speaker 2>to it times, some out of control play, some slop play.

324
00:15:01.279 --> 00:15:05.120
<v Speaker 2>But clearly, I think the numbers have proven it to

325
00:15:05.159 --> 00:15:07.600
<v Speaker 2>be pretty pretty effective for these two coaches because they

326
00:15:07.600 --> 00:15:10.399
<v Speaker 2>want enough at their previous spots that they got big

327
00:15:10.440 --> 00:15:14.679
<v Speaker 2>opportunities here. Clearly Pope's connection to UK was the biggest

328
00:15:14.679 --> 00:15:16.840
<v Speaker 2>factor in him being the coach here, but that doesn't

329
00:15:16.879 --> 00:15:21.039
<v Speaker 2>mean he can't have success. Are they only on stream tonight?

330
00:15:21.080 --> 00:15:25.000
<v Speaker 2>I would imagine it's probably on the SEC network plus

331
00:15:25.080 --> 00:15:27.559
<v Speaker 2>or whatever. I would assume that's the case. Don't know

332
00:15:27.639 --> 00:15:29.559
<v Speaker 2>for sure, but I'm going to tune in and watch

333
00:15:29.600 --> 00:15:31.200
<v Speaker 2>because you know that's what you know. I'm not gonna

334
00:15:31.440 --> 00:15:33.519
<v Speaker 2>make it a priority this evening to where I just

335
00:15:33.559 --> 00:15:35.600
<v Speaker 2>lock in for two hours, but I'll certainly check out

336
00:15:35.600 --> 00:15:39.360
<v Speaker 2>some of it because you know, I I'm eager to

337
00:15:39.360 --> 00:15:41.440
<v Speaker 2>see what they look like. Not to say that I'm

338
00:15:41.440 --> 00:15:43.320
<v Speaker 2>expecting them to look terrible, but you know, if they do,

339
00:15:43.360 --> 00:15:45.799
<v Speaker 2>I wouldn't be I wouldn't be sad about it, but

340
00:15:45.960 --> 00:15:47.320
<v Speaker 2>I'd also be a liar if I told you that

341
00:15:47.360 --> 00:15:50.320
<v Speaker 2>I expected them to be, you know, bad this year.

342
00:15:50.440 --> 00:15:52.480
<v Speaker 2>Who knows how good either team's gonna be. Again, it's

343
00:15:52.480 --> 00:15:55.120
<v Speaker 2>the ultimate unknown in every way. But I think both

344
00:15:55.159 --> 00:15:57.120
<v Speaker 2>fan bases have good reason to feel pretty good about

345
00:15:57.120 --> 00:16:01.240
<v Speaker 2>where they are. I mean, if you're expecting national championships

346
00:16:01.240 --> 00:16:04.519
<v Speaker 2>and final fours from from from either of these teams,

347
00:16:04.519 --> 00:16:09.080
<v Speaker 2>I'd say, you're, you're, you're. You're probably a little misguided there,

348
00:16:10.039 --> 00:16:11.639
<v Speaker 2>but it doesn't mean you can't have success. And I

349
00:16:11.679 --> 00:16:14.120
<v Speaker 2>know both programs, especially Kentucky, because you know, they haven't

350
00:16:14.120 --> 00:16:15.840
<v Speaker 2>gone through what Louis has gone through in recent years.

351
00:16:17.440 --> 00:16:19.480
<v Speaker 2>You know, every year for Kentucky it seems as if

352
00:16:19.519 --> 00:16:21.960
<v Speaker 2>they're they have legitimate aspirations for a final four, but

353
00:16:22.039 --> 00:16:23.600
<v Speaker 2>like this would be the year where if you don't

354
00:16:23.679 --> 00:16:25.200
<v Speaker 2>and you only make it I don't know, to the

355
00:16:25.200 --> 00:16:28.200
<v Speaker 2>second weekend and you look pretty good at times and

356
00:16:28.279 --> 00:16:30.919
<v Speaker 2>have some big wins. I mean, I doubt that they'd

357
00:16:30.919 --> 00:16:33.159
<v Speaker 2>say that it was like a phenomenal season, but like

358
00:16:33.600 --> 00:16:36.600
<v Speaker 2>you wouldn't have a meltdown. I wouldn't think, although I

359
00:16:36.600 --> 00:16:38.600
<v Speaker 2>don't know, man, we'll see. They love Pope now and

360
00:16:38.639 --> 00:16:43.480
<v Speaker 2>I get it, But the first loss they take, no

361
00:16:43.480 --> 00:16:45.399
<v Speaker 2>matter who it is against, I am going to be

362
00:16:45.480 --> 00:16:49.799
<v Speaker 2>really eager to see how they react, not to say

363
00:16:49.840 --> 00:16:52.080
<v Speaker 2>I'm predicting they all melt down and lose their mind

364
00:16:52.080 --> 00:16:54.519
<v Speaker 2>and demand the guy be fired because that you know

365
00:16:55.120 --> 00:16:56.879
<v Speaker 2>that I don't believe that that would be the case,

366
00:16:56.919 --> 00:17:01.200
<v Speaker 2>but I think does they have any kind of doubt

367
00:17:01.240 --> 00:17:03.480
<v Speaker 2>that like this guy? And again, if he loses to

368
00:17:03.559 --> 00:17:05.640
<v Speaker 2>Duke by twenty in the Champions Classic, it might be

369
00:17:05.640 --> 00:17:07.920
<v Speaker 2>because you know, Duke's just that much better this year,

370
00:17:08.519 --> 00:17:10.680
<v Speaker 2>but it'll also give them maybe some fear of like

371
00:17:10.839 --> 00:17:12.720
<v Speaker 2>we hired a guy and now I'm reminded that, yeah,

372
00:17:12.720 --> 00:17:14.920
<v Speaker 2>he went here, and he's great, he's lovable, he's nice,

373
00:17:15.400 --> 00:17:17.599
<v Speaker 2>he loves Kentucky. But like is he good enough to

374
00:17:17.599 --> 00:17:20.319
<v Speaker 2>be our coach with cal You knew within the first

375
00:17:20.400 --> 00:17:22.119
<v Speaker 2>year that he was elite because of what he did

376
00:17:22.160 --> 00:17:23.920
<v Speaker 2>with that first team. So yeah, I mean when they

377
00:17:23.960 --> 00:17:26.200
<v Speaker 2>lose to somebody that isn't a blue blood like John,

378
00:17:26.240 --> 00:17:27.799
<v Speaker 2>that's when that's when we're going to learn about how

379
00:17:27.839 --> 00:17:30.799
<v Speaker 2>they react as to this whole process of Mark Pope

380
00:17:30.839 --> 00:17:31.559
<v Speaker 2>being their new guy.

381
00:17:31.640 --> 00:17:33.880
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, because and they'll be patient if they lose in

382
00:17:33.880 --> 00:17:36.400
<v Speaker 4>the Champions Classic and it's close, Yeah, I think there

383
00:17:36.400 --> 00:17:38.640
<v Speaker 4>will be some frustration because they do want to be

384
00:17:38.799 --> 00:17:40.559
<v Speaker 4>Kentucky and say, you know, we are the best.

385
00:17:40.359 --> 00:17:42.319
<v Speaker 2>Team, and I'll make fun of them for doing moral victories,

386
00:17:42.319 --> 00:17:43.680
<v Speaker 2>but that's just because it's the rival, you know what

387
00:17:43.720 --> 00:17:49.240
<v Speaker 2>I mean? Yes, So yeah, I mean, I don't know.

388
00:17:49.279 --> 00:17:51.079
<v Speaker 2>I mean this is I find it to be really

389
00:17:51.119 --> 00:17:54.240
<v Speaker 2>exciting that both fan bases are going through a new

390
00:17:54.359 --> 00:17:56.039
<v Speaker 2>or starting a new era at the same time. But

391
00:17:56.960 --> 00:17:58.279
<v Speaker 2>you know, I'm sure some of you, if you're a

392
00:17:58.279 --> 00:17:59.640
<v Speaker 2>Louisville fan, you may not give a damn about what

393
00:17:59.720 --> 00:18:02.680
<v Speaker 2>Kentucky doing and vice versa, and I get it, but

394
00:18:02.720 --> 00:18:05.240
<v Speaker 2>don't act like you know, you wouldn't take great satisfaction

395
00:18:05.319 --> 00:18:07.680
<v Speaker 2>and a loss for your rival. I mean, we all do.

396
00:18:07.839 --> 00:18:09.440
<v Speaker 2>That's how it works, and I wouldn't have it any

397
00:18:09.480 --> 00:18:11.960
<v Speaker 2>other way, all right, So Kendrick Hason's going to join us,

398
00:18:11.960 --> 00:18:14.039
<v Speaker 2>coming up here on the other side real quick. Some

399
00:18:14.079 --> 00:18:16.480
<v Speaker 2>sad news that I think I'm a little bit late on.

400
00:18:16.519 --> 00:18:19.119
<v Speaker 2>It looks like this came out earlier today, but it

401
00:18:19.160 --> 00:18:24.200
<v Speaker 2>looks as if, according to Twitter, that the mother of

402
00:18:24.559 --> 00:18:29.680
<v Speaker 2>Mike and Mark Stoops has has passed away. Mike Stoops

403
00:18:29.720 --> 00:18:32.559
<v Speaker 2>Mark's younger brother. I think he's a younger brother. Maybe

404
00:18:32.599 --> 00:18:34.640
<v Speaker 2>he's an older brother. I'm not sure, but he posted

405
00:18:35.440 --> 00:18:41.480
<v Speaker 2>something on Twitter confirming that their mother, Evelyn D. D. Stoops,

406
00:18:41.279 --> 00:18:46.960
<v Speaker 2>has passed away. So condolences. That's obviously super super sad. Yeah,

407
00:18:47.000 --> 00:18:51.960
<v Speaker 2>so very sad news. Condolences to Stoops and and his

408
00:18:52.039 --> 00:18:56.519
<v Speaker 2>and his family. No real easy way to transition here,

409
00:18:56.559 --> 00:18:58.319
<v Speaker 2>but I'll give it a shot again real quick. I

410
00:18:58.359 --> 00:19:00.279
<v Speaker 2>want to reset something before we take a break. Bring

411
00:19:00.279 --> 00:19:03.200
<v Speaker 2>in the one and only Kendrick Haskins Bronni James playing

412
00:19:03.279 --> 00:19:05.960
<v Speaker 2>last night at the same time as his dad. Like,

413
00:19:06.000 --> 00:19:08.440
<v Speaker 2>obviously that's probably the most talked about thing, certainly the

414
00:19:08.480 --> 00:19:10.559
<v Speaker 2>most talked about thing on ESPN right now, because you know,

415
00:19:10.680 --> 00:19:12.279
<v Speaker 2>if they get a chance to talk about Lebron for

416
00:19:12.319 --> 00:19:15.359
<v Speaker 2>twenty four straight hours, they're gonna do it. Obviously, him

417
00:19:15.400 --> 00:19:18.119
<v Speaker 2>playing in a game with his younger son becoming the

418
00:19:18.160 --> 00:19:20.640
<v Speaker 2>first ever father son duo in the NBA, Like they're gonna,

419
00:19:20.720 --> 00:19:25.119
<v Speaker 2>they're gonna run with it, and I get everybody's issues

420
00:19:25.119 --> 00:19:27.960
<v Speaker 2>with it and just being annoyed and just being like,

421
00:19:28.000 --> 00:19:31.319
<v Speaker 2>you know, come on, Lebron, like, really, who you kid

422
00:19:31.359 --> 00:19:33.319
<v Speaker 2>and your kid's not any good? You're setting him up

423
00:19:33.359 --> 00:19:35.880
<v Speaker 2>to be a punching bag because everybody's gonna make fun

424
00:19:35.880 --> 00:19:37.559
<v Speaker 2>of him for only being in the NBA because his

425
00:19:37.640 --> 00:19:40.440
<v Speaker 2>dad is Lebron James. This is a circus. The NBA

426
00:19:40.480 --> 00:19:42.400
<v Speaker 2>is an unserious league. Like these are all things you're

427
00:19:42.400 --> 00:19:45.680
<v Speaker 2>hearing people throw out there, and I don't disagree with

428
00:19:45.720 --> 00:19:47.200
<v Speaker 2>really any of it as far as you know, it

429
00:19:47.319 --> 00:19:52.640
<v Speaker 2>being clearly a circus. However, I did start the show

430
00:19:52.640 --> 00:19:54.400
<v Speaker 2>with this because it was the first time I'd really

431
00:19:54.440 --> 00:19:57.839
<v Speaker 2>given any truth thought to the Lakers side of this

432
00:19:57.880 --> 00:19:59.640
<v Speaker 2>whole thing as to why they're doing it. Why would

433
00:19:59.640 --> 00:20:01.799
<v Speaker 2>they want would they give Lebron whatever they want? Why

434
00:20:01.799 --> 00:20:04.680
<v Speaker 2>would they draft his son and not act like it's

435
00:20:05.519 --> 00:20:08.319
<v Speaker 2>you know, clearly them just doing what their franchise player

436
00:20:08.359 --> 00:20:10.759
<v Speaker 2>wants them to do. And it was Brian Windhorst on

437
00:20:10.920 --> 00:20:13.759
<v Speaker 2>ESPN who I thought laid out something that really makes

438
00:20:13.759 --> 00:20:16.160
<v Speaker 2>a lot of sense, and that's that you do this

439
00:20:16.359 --> 00:20:22.160
<v Speaker 2>because it gives you an energized, enthusiastic really bought in

440
00:20:22.279 --> 00:20:25.200
<v Speaker 2>Lebron James late in his career, Like Lebron could walk

441
00:20:25.240 --> 00:20:28.799
<v Speaker 2>away in any moment and nobody'd be surprised because he's

442
00:20:28.960 --> 00:20:31.200
<v Speaker 2>nearly forty. Even though he's still playing at a high level,

443
00:20:31.359 --> 00:20:33.920
<v Speaker 2>He's got nothing left to prove. He's got his business

444
00:20:34.000 --> 00:20:36.039
<v Speaker 2>ventures and whatnot, Like, you know, it would make sense

445
00:20:36.039 --> 00:20:38.480
<v Speaker 2>for him to not be as driven. Well now he's

446
00:20:38.599 --> 00:20:43.319
<v Speaker 2>I think he's rejuvenile or rejuvenated, rejuvenid. He's rejuvenated because

447
00:20:43.440 --> 00:20:47.799
<v Speaker 2>he's he's playing alongside his son and like obviously he

448
00:20:47.839 --> 00:20:49.680
<v Speaker 2>wants to win at all times. But man, how great

449
00:20:49.680 --> 00:20:51.599
<v Speaker 2>would it be if those guys won a title together?

450
00:20:51.720 --> 00:20:54.759
<v Speaker 2>Like it's a good investment on a second round pick

451
00:20:55.079 --> 00:20:58.440
<v Speaker 2>if you're the Lakers, because it gives you maybe Lebron

452
00:20:58.759 --> 00:21:01.160
<v Speaker 2>at his best since he's been in LA because he

453
00:21:01.240 --> 00:21:03.720
<v Speaker 2>may be as locked in and as focus now as

454
00:21:03.759 --> 00:21:06.680
<v Speaker 2>he's ever been. We all know it's a stunt. Lebron

455
00:21:06.720 --> 00:21:09.200
<v Speaker 2>deep down knows it, I'm sure, but like, let them

456
00:21:09.279 --> 00:21:12.880
<v Speaker 2>act as if this is all earned and not something

457
00:21:12.960 --> 00:21:17.039
<v Speaker 2>done because of the ability that his father has to

458
00:21:17.079 --> 00:21:19.519
<v Speaker 2>do because he's you know, Lebron James. If they want

459
00:21:19.559 --> 00:21:21.400
<v Speaker 2>to live in their world as if this was you know,

460
00:21:21.559 --> 00:21:23.319
<v Speaker 2>not what it is that we all know it is.

461
00:21:23.839 --> 00:21:25.920
<v Speaker 2>If I'm the Lakers, I'd say, knock yourself out, have

462
00:21:26.000 --> 00:21:27.799
<v Speaker 2>at it. We'll continue to run with it, as if

463
00:21:27.799 --> 00:21:30.200
<v Speaker 2>this is all earned by Bronni James and it has

464
00:21:30.240 --> 00:21:32.799
<v Speaker 2>nothing to do with his dad being Lebron. If that

465
00:21:32.880 --> 00:21:36.960
<v Speaker 2>gives you Lebron at his best, you know which, I

466
00:21:37.000 --> 00:21:38.640
<v Speaker 2>don't know if it'd be truly at his best, but look,

467
00:21:38.680 --> 00:21:40.640
<v Speaker 2>the guy doesn't. He hadn't slowed down much, man. He's

468
00:21:40.640 --> 00:21:43.279
<v Speaker 2>still an elite player that at any moment, on any

469
00:21:43.279 --> 00:21:45.480
<v Speaker 2>given night can can clearly be the best player in

470
00:21:45.519 --> 00:21:48.759
<v Speaker 2>the NBA. And if you get four more years of

471
00:21:48.799 --> 00:21:51.519
<v Speaker 2>that guy at that level, and all it cost you

472
00:21:51.640 --> 00:21:53.559
<v Speaker 2>was you letting his son hang out on the bench,

473
00:21:54.039 --> 00:21:56.319
<v Speaker 2>I'd say it's worth it. But I also get why

474
00:21:56.359 --> 00:21:58.640
<v Speaker 2>it annoys everybody too. All Right, Kendrick Asking is going

475
00:21:58.680 --> 00:21:59.759
<v Speaker 2>to join us on the other side, keep it lock

477
00:22:04.440 --> 00:22:07.440
<v Speaker 2>is Coffee and Company. Got about thirty minutes left here

478
00:22:07.519 --> 00:22:09.880
<v Speaker 2>on a Wednesday afternoon. As you know, we are fueled

479

00:22:17.279 --> 00:22:18.640
<v Speaker 2>this beautiful Wednesday afternoon?

483
00:22:19.759 --> 00:22:22.279
<v Speaker 5>Doing it great? Making our high school football rounds that

484
00:22:22.279 --> 00:22:23.400
<v Speaker 5>we do every Wednesday.

485
00:22:23.440 --> 00:22:27.039
<v Speaker 2>So hardest working man in show business. It is beautiful outside,

486
00:22:27.039 --> 00:22:28.599
<v Speaker 2>still right. Sometimes I say that and then you know,

487
00:22:28.680 --> 00:22:30.599
<v Speaker 2>I've been in this cave in the studio for two

488
00:22:30.599 --> 00:22:32.279
<v Speaker 2>and a half hours. I walk in it's nice, and

489
00:22:32.279 --> 00:22:33.839
<v Speaker 2>then I come out and it's you know, it's it's

490
00:22:33.960 --> 00:22:35.599
<v Speaker 2>terrible outside. I hope it's still beautiful.

491
00:22:36.799 --> 00:22:37.880
<v Speaker 3>It's perfect outside.

492
00:22:37.960 --> 00:22:40.319
<v Speaker 5>I'm in the same boat at the station where our offices.

493
00:22:40.359 --> 00:22:41.160
<v Speaker 5>We don't have any.

494
00:22:40.960 --> 00:22:44.519
<v Speaker 3>Windows, and so I don't know what depressing it raining

495
00:22:45.119 --> 00:22:47.720
<v Speaker 3>unless it's raining really hard, and I know it's raining.

496
00:22:47.720 --> 00:22:49.680
<v Speaker 5>Outside of that, I don't know what's going on outside.

497
00:22:49.920 --> 00:22:53.279
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, some some sunlight coming in from a window can

498
00:22:53.319 --> 00:22:55.680
<v Speaker 2>really can really be uplifting when it comes to a mood.

499
00:22:55.759 --> 00:22:58.880
<v Speaker 2>But yes, we in media, we work in caves, which

500
00:22:58.920 --> 00:23:01.640
<v Speaker 2>you know, it's it's worth it, you know. I'm sure

501
00:23:01.640 --> 00:23:04.640
<v Speaker 2>you view this, you know, being able to cover sports

502
00:23:04.680 --> 00:23:06.480
<v Speaker 2>for a living, yes, it's a job. You work hard,

503
00:23:06.480 --> 00:23:08.960
<v Speaker 2>but you know what I do. I've always used it

504
00:23:09.000 --> 00:23:11.000
<v Speaker 2>as an excuse to never really have to grow up, right, Like,

505
00:23:11.039 --> 00:23:12.400
<v Speaker 2>you know, I'm kind of an adult, you know what

506
00:23:12.440 --> 00:23:12.720
<v Speaker 2>I mean?

507
00:23:13.759 --> 00:23:17.119
<v Speaker 5>Right, I get paid to sit here and care about

508
00:23:17.119 --> 00:23:17.799
<v Speaker 5>these games.

509
00:23:17.960 --> 00:23:20.519
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's you know, I'm gonna keep doing it until

510
00:23:20.519 --> 00:23:22.440
<v Speaker 2>they don't let me anymore. It's a pretty good, pretty

511
00:23:22.480 --> 00:23:25.240
<v Speaker 2>good scam that we've we've been able to, uh to

512
00:23:25.279 --> 00:23:28.559
<v Speaker 2>pull off. All right, So let's start with football. I

513
00:23:28.559 --> 00:23:30.440
<v Speaker 2>guess we haven't. We haven't talked much about it on

514
00:23:30.480 --> 00:23:33.880
<v Speaker 2>the show today. But Kentucky, you know, they I keep thinking, okay, well,

515
00:23:33.920 --> 00:23:35.799
<v Speaker 2>you know, if they lose again another game, you know,

516
00:23:35.920 --> 00:23:37.759
<v Speaker 2>to Vandy or to Florida, man, that would really be

517
00:23:37.839 --> 00:23:40.880
<v Speaker 2>the ultimate let down for for for the Kentucky fans,

518
00:23:40.920 --> 00:23:44.599
<v Speaker 2>and they may really be bothered and unsure about how

519
00:23:44.599 --> 00:23:47.359
<v Speaker 2>they feel about Mark Stoops moving forward. But like that's

520
00:23:47.400 --> 00:23:49.720
<v Speaker 2>happened the last two games for them, I mean, obviously

521
00:23:50.079 --> 00:23:51.880
<v Speaker 2>Auburn's not a great team, but I think when you

522
00:23:51.880 --> 00:23:53.680
<v Speaker 2>look at what Kentucky's done this year, I think, you know,

523
00:23:53.680 --> 00:23:55.519
<v Speaker 2>they could easily come in and beat them, given that

524
00:23:55.599 --> 00:23:58.400
<v Speaker 2>Kentucky not only has has struggled more so than people

525
00:23:58.680 --> 00:24:01.279
<v Speaker 2>would have expected, they've not want at home very much

526
00:24:01.359 --> 00:24:03.160
<v Speaker 2>in the last few years. I mean, what do you

527
00:24:03.200 --> 00:24:05.960
<v Speaker 2>think is the ultimate problem with this Kentucky team, Because

528
00:24:06.000 --> 00:24:08.440
<v Speaker 2>I still happen to believe they have some pretty good players.

529
00:24:08.480 --> 00:24:10.640
<v Speaker 2>I don't think that they're losing the teams like Vandy

530
00:24:11.200 --> 00:24:14.519
<v Speaker 2>in Florida because they don't have talent. I think they're

531
00:24:14.599 --> 00:24:16.240
<v Speaker 2>just kind of a mess.

532
00:24:16.680 --> 00:24:18.559
<v Speaker 3>They are kind of a mess. I mean you look

533
00:24:18.559 --> 00:24:21.240
<v Speaker 3>at that defense. I mean, that defense is pretty good,

534
00:24:21.359 --> 00:24:22.119
<v Speaker 3>and then you.

535
00:24:22.079 --> 00:24:23.359
<v Speaker 5>Look at their receiver.

536
00:24:23.079 --> 00:24:25.720
<v Speaker 3>Room, and then I mean you you wouldn't trade their

537
00:24:25.720 --> 00:24:28.359
<v Speaker 3>receiver room for just about any receivers in the country.

538
00:24:28.720 --> 00:24:32.960
<v Speaker 5>Dang Ye and Brown. I mean, those are two.

539
00:24:32.799 --> 00:24:37.000
<v Speaker 3>Of two elite receivers, so they're fine there. And I

540
00:24:37.039 --> 00:24:39.640
<v Speaker 3>think do think the offensive line is a big problem.

541
00:24:40.160 --> 00:24:43.839
<v Speaker 3>But I mean, other than that that, the offensive line

542
00:24:43.839 --> 00:24:44.359
<v Speaker 3>did it's.

543
00:24:44.200 --> 00:24:46.640
<v Speaker 5>Part for the most part in that Florida game, and

544
00:24:46.759 --> 00:24:47.920
<v Speaker 5>the defense fell apart.

545
00:24:48.079 --> 00:24:52.599
<v Speaker 3>So I don't know if maybe I don't never want

546
00:24:52.640 --> 00:24:55.039
<v Speaker 3>to see I never wanted to really call coaches to

547
00:24:55.079 --> 00:24:59.039
<v Speaker 3>be fired, but I wonder if it's time for a change,

548
00:24:59.240 --> 00:25:03.119
<v Speaker 3>just a new voice in the program and inject some

549
00:25:03.160 --> 00:25:05.799
<v Speaker 3>new new energy into the program.

550
00:25:05.400 --> 00:25:08.359
<v Speaker 5>Because it just doesn't feel I just feel like we're

551
00:25:08.359 --> 00:25:09.799
<v Speaker 5>at the top of what we're gonna get out of

552
00:25:09.839 --> 00:25:10.359
<v Speaker 5>Mark Student.

553
00:25:10.519 --> 00:25:12.519
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean, look, things run their course. I think

554
00:25:12.680 --> 00:25:16.039
<v Speaker 2>fans who love Stoops and would still you know, push

555
00:25:16.079 --> 00:25:18.079
<v Speaker 2>for him to have some kind of a statue or something,

556
00:25:18.119 --> 00:25:21.480
<v Speaker 2>would be open to hearing about a new voice. I mean,

557
00:25:21.480 --> 00:25:23.000
<v Speaker 2>not to go back to what Cal said when he

558
00:25:23.039 --> 00:25:25.160
<v Speaker 2>walked out, but there are some similarities here to where

559
00:25:25.400 --> 00:25:28.480
<v Speaker 2>I think fans appreciate Stoops and all that he's done,

560
00:25:28.519 --> 00:25:30.559
<v Speaker 2>but they don't really feel as if right now he's

561
00:25:30.599 --> 00:25:33.319
<v Speaker 2>the guy that can not only get them to where

562
00:25:33.319 --> 00:25:35.960
<v Speaker 2>they feel like they are in a better place, but

563
00:25:36.000 --> 00:25:37.799
<v Speaker 2>maybe even get them back to where Stoops at one

564
00:25:37.799 --> 00:25:40.400
<v Speaker 2>point had them. I mean, you know, he coaches don't

565
00:25:40.400 --> 00:25:42.920
<v Speaker 2>stick around as long as Mark Stoops has at Kentucky.

566
00:25:43.200 --> 00:25:47.240
<v Speaker 2>And you know, if he did walk away, I wouldn't

567
00:25:47.279 --> 00:25:50.079
<v Speaker 2>be completely stunned just because he's kind of seemed a

568
00:25:50.119 --> 00:25:52.319
<v Speaker 2>little bit checked out. I mean, he's not the only

569
00:25:52.319 --> 00:25:55.440
<v Speaker 2>coach that's complained about how different the job is now,

570
00:25:55.480 --> 00:25:57.880
<v Speaker 2>but I think he's probably been a little more vocal

571
00:25:57.920 --> 00:25:59.880
<v Speaker 2>about it than others. And I can appreciate that, to

572
00:25:59.920 --> 00:26:01.599
<v Speaker 2>be honest with you, I like coaches that are transparent.

573
00:26:01.640 --> 00:26:03.359
<v Speaker 2>I don't think he's just saying it to make excuses.

574
00:26:03.359 --> 00:26:05.480
<v Speaker 2>I think he's saying it because he is annoyed by

575
00:26:05.480 --> 00:26:06.920
<v Speaker 2>all the other things that he has to do now

576
00:26:06.920 --> 00:26:08.319
<v Speaker 2>that he didn't have to use to do before the

577
00:26:08.319 --> 00:26:11.880
<v Speaker 2>portal and before before nil. But I mean, you gotta

578
00:26:11.920 --> 00:26:14.039
<v Speaker 2>be you gotta be some kind of stupid rich to

579
00:26:14.200 --> 00:26:16.960
<v Speaker 2>just walk away from a nine million dollar a year job, right, Like,

580
00:26:17.000 --> 00:26:19.759
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you can be burned out, but for nine million,

581
00:26:19.799 --> 00:26:23.680
<v Speaker 2>I'll be burned out for a decade, man, right right?

582
00:26:23.799 --> 00:26:26.200
<v Speaker 3>And that's that's the other part of it, is like

583
00:26:26.720 --> 00:26:29.720
<v Speaker 3>Kentucky really can't get rid of him because his buyout.

584
00:26:29.480 --> 00:26:31.279
<v Speaker 2>Is so he's gonna have to just walk I mean

585
00:26:31.279 --> 00:26:33.279
<v Speaker 2>that would be the best case, or you know, start winning,

586
00:26:33.279 --> 00:26:35.759
<v Speaker 2>and he may do that, but I just I kind

587
00:26:35.799 --> 00:26:38.279
<v Speaker 2>of feel like the best days for Kentucky football under

588
00:26:38.279 --> 00:26:41.200
<v Speaker 2>Stoops probably have have already come and gone. That's not

589
00:26:41.200 --> 00:26:43.160
<v Speaker 2>to say they're gonna be terrible, because I don't think

590
00:26:43.160 --> 00:26:45.000
<v Speaker 2>they're a terrible team now, but they already doesn't It

591
00:26:45.000 --> 00:26:47.160
<v Speaker 2>feel like they're at a point now in the season

592
00:26:47.200 --> 00:26:50.039
<v Speaker 2>that if if this thing's kind of turned into a

593
00:26:50.039 --> 00:26:52.279
<v Speaker 2>snowball going down a hill and another loss here to

594
00:26:52.279 --> 00:26:54.000
<v Speaker 2>an Auburn team that isn't very good. I mean at

595
00:26:54.000 --> 00:26:56.160
<v Speaker 2>that point, I think you'd look at the Murray State

596
00:26:56.279 --> 00:26:59.559
<v Speaker 2>is the only sure win that they have, right.

597
00:26:59.440 --> 00:27:01.640
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, they lose to Auburn is going to get really

598
00:27:01.680 --> 00:27:04.599
<v Speaker 3>loud because you don't expect them to beat Tennessee.

599
00:27:04.640 --> 00:27:06.440
<v Speaker 2>Texas at Texas. Nope.

600
00:27:07.519 --> 00:27:11.640
<v Speaker 5>No. And so the Louisville game is always in.

601
00:27:11.599 --> 00:27:15.319
<v Speaker 3>The air because reason they keep beating being favored to

602
00:27:15.319 --> 00:27:17.839
<v Speaker 3>beat him with three years in a row. And so

603
00:27:18.400 --> 00:27:21.640
<v Speaker 3>there's that if they lose to Auburn and the season

604
00:27:21.720 --> 00:27:24.000
<v Speaker 3>goes like he could go and a lost to Louisville

605
00:27:24.079 --> 00:27:27.240
<v Speaker 3>is going to get really uncomfortable in Lexington. But like

606
00:27:27.279 --> 00:27:30.440
<v Speaker 3>I said, he Stoops is the one who's the control

607
00:27:30.480 --> 00:27:31.400
<v Speaker 3>if he's there next year.

608
00:27:31.480 --> 00:27:33.359
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, And I think if that, like if it did

609
00:27:33.400 --> 00:27:35.759
<v Speaker 2>play out that way, because I think the you know,

610
00:27:36.519 --> 00:27:39.480
<v Speaker 2>I understand where these programs are. When it comes to

611
00:27:39.519 --> 00:27:41.880
<v Speaker 2>college football, more often than not, a good season is

612
00:27:41.920 --> 00:27:44.519
<v Speaker 2>going to be considered pretty pretty mid and average compared

613
00:27:44.519 --> 00:27:47.440
<v Speaker 2>to the hierarchy of college football. But that's why beating

614
00:27:47.480 --> 00:27:49.720
<v Speaker 2>your rival always goes a long way around here, and

615
00:27:49.720 --> 00:27:51.920
<v Speaker 2>Stoops has done really, really good at that. I mean,

616
00:27:51.960 --> 00:27:53.680
<v Speaker 2>he got off to a rough start because of what

617
00:27:53.680 --> 00:27:56.519
<v Speaker 2>he inherited, but you know, he's he's been very successful

618
00:27:56.519 --> 00:27:58.640
<v Speaker 2>against Louisville and that goes a long way. And if

619
00:27:58.640 --> 00:28:00.960
<v Speaker 2>if you're a Louisville coach and you beat Kentucky regularly,

620
00:28:01.279 --> 00:28:02.960
<v Speaker 2>that would go a long way here too. It's obviously

621
00:28:03.000 --> 00:28:04.640
<v Speaker 2>been a while since that happened, but I think the

622
00:28:04.720 --> 00:28:07.440
<v Speaker 2>noise would be louder than ever if the season played

623
00:28:07.440 --> 00:28:10.000
<v Speaker 2>out that way, where maybe they're only when is Murray,

624
00:28:10.160 --> 00:28:12.039
<v Speaker 2>or maybe they beat Murray and Auburn but lose to

625
00:28:12.119 --> 00:28:15.640
<v Speaker 2>Florida or lose to Texas Tennessee in Louisville of course,

626
00:28:15.640 --> 00:28:17.440
<v Speaker 2>which would be the punch to the gut for their fans.

627
00:28:17.480 --> 00:28:19.559
<v Speaker 2>So if in fact that scenario played out, and it's

628
00:28:19.559 --> 00:28:21.680
<v Speaker 2>not a crazy one, it would turn to where I

629
00:28:21.680 --> 00:28:24.160
<v Speaker 2>think Stoops would have to kind of like campaign to

630
00:28:24.279 --> 00:28:27.279
<v Speaker 2>like win everybody back, and I just feel like that

631
00:28:27.400 --> 00:28:29.519
<v Speaker 2>seems like the last thing he's got energy to do

632
00:28:29.599 --> 00:28:30.960
<v Speaker 2>right now, you know what I mean. Like, he just

633
00:28:30.960 --> 00:28:33.680
<v Speaker 2>doesn't seem like he would have the give a damn

634
00:28:33.720 --> 00:28:35.039
<v Speaker 2>to do that. And I don't even mean to say

635
00:28:35.079 --> 00:28:36.519
<v Speaker 2>that to be critical, but I just feel like he

636
00:28:36.559 --> 00:28:38.279
<v Speaker 2>would be like, Nope, I'm certainly not doing that.

637
00:28:39.839 --> 00:28:42.640
<v Speaker 3>And I don't know if for him personally, if it's

638
00:28:42.680 --> 00:28:45.000
<v Speaker 3>not a good idea to go ahead and just get

639
00:28:45.039 --> 00:28:48.480
<v Speaker 3>a first start somewhere, it's because he does seem like

640
00:28:48.519 --> 00:28:51.319
<v Speaker 3>it's kind of weighing on him and he's mean, he's

641
00:28:51.559 --> 00:28:52.200
<v Speaker 3>a nice guy.

642
00:28:52.240 --> 00:28:55.359
<v Speaker 5>Anybody who's ever been around Mark, he's as nice as Yeah.

643
00:28:55.480 --> 00:28:57.599
<v Speaker 2>I don't doubt that at all. I think it is

644
00:28:57.640 --> 00:29:00.240
<v Speaker 2>the right. I'm a diehard Louis fan obviously, but as

645
00:29:00.279 --> 00:29:02.319
<v Speaker 2>a rival coach, he's not somebody that I think is

646
00:29:02.359 --> 00:29:05.160
<v Speaker 2>like a natural villain. I think he's a pretty straight shooter.

647
00:29:05.880 --> 00:29:07.960
<v Speaker 3>Right, Yeah, He's not a guy that like you're gonna

648
00:29:07.960 --> 00:29:09.920
<v Speaker 3>hate if you're the other fan base, other than if

649
00:29:10.160 --> 00:29:11.000
<v Speaker 3>other than beating you.

650
00:29:11.039 --> 00:29:13.400
<v Speaker 5>But just he's not gonna say anything crazy. He's not

651
00:29:13.440 --> 00:29:16.319
<v Speaker 5>gonna be disrespectful in any ways. For my fashion, but

652
00:29:16.680 --> 00:29:18.240
<v Speaker 5>he's he's done a great job.

653
00:29:18.759 --> 00:29:21.119
<v Speaker 3>He's done and I said, he's been probably the best

654
00:29:21.160 --> 00:29:22.799
<v Speaker 3>football coach ever outside.

655
00:29:22.440 --> 00:29:25.319
<v Speaker 5>Of Bear Bryant. So he's done a lot. But you

656
00:29:25.480 --> 00:29:27.400
<v Speaker 5>just wonder if it's just run its course, and maybe

657
00:29:27.440 --> 00:29:29.160
<v Speaker 5>it's not for him to get a fresh start, Maybe

658
00:29:29.240 --> 00:29:31.240
<v Speaker 5>the program get a fresh start, maybe just have a

659
00:29:31.279 --> 00:29:34.279
<v Speaker 5>clean break, and you know, years and years from now,

660
00:29:34.319 --> 00:29:36.119
<v Speaker 5>and they bring him back for the spring game like

661
00:29:36.160 --> 00:29:38.759
<v Speaker 5>they brought back to Bigness.

662
00:29:39.039 --> 00:29:40.880
<v Speaker 2>Or just or just not even a fresh start, just

663
00:29:40.920 --> 00:29:42.880
<v Speaker 2>go be rich and retire, like that'd be a good

664
00:29:42.920 --> 00:29:45.759
<v Speaker 2>life to live. I mean, that's these guys can. These

665
00:29:45.799 --> 00:29:48.240
<v Speaker 2>guys can walk away and retire early and have a

666
00:29:48.319 --> 00:29:50.599
<v Speaker 2>lot more money than someone like myself will ever have.

667
00:29:50.720 --> 00:29:53.359
<v Speaker 2>So if you can't tell I'm pretty envious, let's let's

668
00:29:53.400 --> 00:29:55.880
<v Speaker 2>switch gears to to Louisville football. I don't know if

669
00:29:55.880 --> 00:29:57.759
<v Speaker 2>i'd call him a mess, but they are four and three.

670
00:29:57.799 --> 00:29:59.039
<v Speaker 2>You got to look in the mirror. You are what

671
00:29:59.119 --> 00:30:02.319
<v Speaker 2>your record says. Yes, their losses have come against some

672
00:30:02.400 --> 00:30:05.079
<v Speaker 2>good teams, and they've been there with a chance to win.

673
00:30:05.119 --> 00:30:07.079
<v Speaker 2>I mean each of those games you lost by one score.

674
00:30:07.200 --> 00:30:11.960
<v Speaker 2>But you know, I'm I'm kind of I'm kind of stunned.

675
00:30:11.960 --> 00:30:14.119
<v Speaker 2>I mean, that's that sounds a little over the top,

676
00:30:14.160 --> 00:30:16.240
<v Speaker 2>but I just didn't think Louisville would be four and

677
00:30:16.279 --> 00:30:19.640
<v Speaker 2>three at this point. And it be because they their

678
00:30:19.680 --> 00:30:22.519
<v Speaker 2>identity is is a team that you know can't help

679
00:30:22.559 --> 00:30:24.920
<v Speaker 2>but make some big time mistakes at really bad times.

680
00:30:24.920 --> 00:30:27.079
<v Speaker 2>Nobody's asking to be perfect, and they really only made

681
00:30:27.079 --> 00:30:30.200
<v Speaker 2>one huge mistake against Miami, but you're playing the number

682
00:30:30.200 --> 00:30:31.599
<v Speaker 2>six team in the country. I mean, that's the kind

683
00:30:31.599 --> 00:30:34.039
<v Speaker 2>of mistake that you know will haunt you against a

684
00:30:34.039 --> 00:30:35.920
<v Speaker 2>good team like Miami. Where do you think Louisville is

685
00:30:36.000 --> 00:30:38.160
<v Speaker 2>right now? Should fans maybe? I mean, obviously, if you're

686
00:30:38.160 --> 00:30:41.160
<v Speaker 2>expecting acc championship appearance, that seems to be out the

687
00:30:41.160 --> 00:30:43.720
<v Speaker 2>window right now. But you know what makes it even

688
00:30:43.720 --> 00:30:45.960
<v Speaker 2>more difficult for me as a fan, Kendrick, is that, like,

689
00:30:46.039 --> 00:30:47.880
<v Speaker 2>I still think this team has good players, Like I

690
00:30:47.920 --> 00:30:49.960
<v Speaker 2>think they have the ability to be a lot of teams,

691
00:30:49.960 --> 00:30:51.079
<v Speaker 2>they're just not getting it done.

692
00:30:52.240 --> 00:30:52.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's the.

693
00:30:52.880 --> 00:30:55.319
<v Speaker 5>Thing that's frustrating about it because, like you said, they're

694
00:30:55.359 --> 00:30:57.880
<v Speaker 5>one they're one score losses. Every one of those games

695
00:30:57.920 --> 00:31:00.920
<v Speaker 5>they could have won to play goes here, they don't

696
00:31:01.000 --> 00:31:03.279
<v Speaker 5>hike the ball over the punter's head on a punt

697
00:31:03.640 --> 00:31:06.039
<v Speaker 5>against Notre Dame. You know, they don't give up big

698
00:31:06.039 --> 00:31:08.319
<v Speaker 5>plays against s U. They don't give up, you know,

699
00:31:08.519 --> 00:31:10.480
<v Speaker 5>a big play here and there against Miami.

700
00:31:10.559 --> 00:31:14.480
<v Speaker 2>To fumble too, fumble calls that got returned on your

701
00:31:14.480 --> 00:31:16.559
<v Speaker 2>home field. I mean, you know, and maybe some of

702
00:31:16.559 --> 00:31:18.039
<v Speaker 2>the maybe those were the right calls at the end

703
00:31:18.039 --> 00:31:19.279
<v Speaker 2>of the day. But yeah, I mean it just seems

704
00:31:19.319 --> 00:31:21.160
<v Speaker 2>like breaks have not gone their way and they've just

705
00:31:21.480 --> 00:31:23.119
<v Speaker 2>they've hurt themselves more than anything.

706
00:31:24.039 --> 00:31:26.960
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, That's that's exactly what it is. It's frustrating because

707
00:31:27.000 --> 00:31:27.680
<v Speaker 5>you look out there.

708
00:31:27.960 --> 00:31:28.839
<v Speaker 3>You see the talent.

709
00:31:28.880 --> 00:31:31.799
<v Speaker 5>I mean, Shuck is as good a quarterback as Wolves

710
00:31:31.839 --> 00:31:32.599
<v Speaker 5>had around here.

711
00:31:32.480 --> 00:31:35.839
<v Speaker 3>Since Lamar I agree, and then and the received the

712
00:31:35.920 --> 00:31:39.200
<v Speaker 3>receivers was Brooks and all the players they're making that

713
00:31:39.319 --> 00:31:41.519
<v Speaker 3>receiver you see it there.

714
00:31:41.559 --> 00:31:42.359
<v Speaker 5>The running game is.

715
00:31:42.359 --> 00:31:44.400
<v Speaker 2>Great Lacy with the kick return.

716
00:31:44.119 --> 00:31:47.480
<v Speaker 5>Man, Colin Lacey. I mean, he's come in since.

717
00:31:47.279 --> 00:31:50.119
<v Speaker 3>That Notre Dame game and has been everything you expected

718
00:31:50.160 --> 00:31:53.799
<v Speaker 3>it more so, you're getting what you thought you were

719
00:31:53.799 --> 00:31:57.039
<v Speaker 3>gonna get out of your stars. It's just it's occasional

720
00:31:57.160 --> 00:31:59.359
<v Speaker 3>plays here and there that has killed them, and it's

721
00:31:59.359 --> 00:32:01.839
<v Speaker 3>surprising with defense, with all the talent they had coming

722
00:32:01.880 --> 00:32:05.960
<v Speaker 3>back on defense. But that's the frustrating part, is like

723
00:32:06.000 --> 00:32:07.680
<v Speaker 3>this team could easily be.

724
00:32:07.720 --> 00:32:09.960
<v Speaker 5>Seven and zero and we're sitting here thinking about the

725
00:32:10.000 --> 00:32:13.279
<v Speaker 5>college football playoffs. But now they're four and Three's like, okay,

726
00:32:13.359 --> 00:32:14.440
<v Speaker 5>let's get to a bowl game.

727
00:32:14.640 --> 00:32:16.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and and look, I still think that they will,

728
00:32:17.079 --> 00:32:20.759
<v Speaker 2>but I feel like, you know, this Boston College game one,

729
00:32:20.839 --> 00:32:22.079
<v Speaker 2>it's it's a game where you don't really have a

730
00:32:22.119 --> 00:32:23.960
<v Speaker 2>whole lot to gain, but certainly a lot to lose,

731
00:32:24.000 --> 00:32:25.680
<v Speaker 2>because you wouldn't be able to claim that, well, our

732
00:32:25.759 --> 00:32:29.160
<v Speaker 2>losses were competitive against good teams. Boston College, they're not terrible,

733
00:32:29.160 --> 00:32:31.279
<v Speaker 2>but they're certainly not viewed as a as a good team.

734
00:32:32.680 --> 00:32:34.440
<v Speaker 2>And you know, there's still a chance for them to

735
00:32:34.440 --> 00:32:36.799
<v Speaker 2>do something they haven't done in a long time. Beat Kentucky.

736
00:32:36.799 --> 00:32:38.559
<v Speaker 2>There's still a chance to do something they've never done,

737
00:32:39.079 --> 00:32:41.440
<v Speaker 2>which you know is went at Clemson. But it's just

738
00:32:41.480 --> 00:32:44.240
<v Speaker 2>hard to kind of expect those results to be there whenever,

739
00:32:44.559 --> 00:32:47.119
<v Speaker 2>you know, whenever they've had big opportunities so far, they've

740
00:32:47.160 --> 00:32:49.799
<v Speaker 2>just they've shot themselves in the foot. But you know,

741
00:32:50.400 --> 00:32:51.960
<v Speaker 2>I think it makes fans feel a little bit better

742
00:32:51.960 --> 00:32:53.720
<v Speaker 2>to know that their head coach is just as beside

743
00:32:53.759 --> 00:32:55.559
<v Speaker 2>himself as they are. I mean, Jeff Brom, I mean

744
00:32:55.839 --> 00:32:57.559
<v Speaker 2>I don't think he's you know, I don't. I don't

745
00:32:57.599 --> 00:32:59.920
<v Speaker 2>think he's down on his team to where he's not

746
00:33:00.079 --> 00:33:01.720
<v Speaker 2>going to bring it every day and try to try

747
00:33:01.759 --> 00:33:03.759
<v Speaker 2>to get this season turned around. But you could just

748
00:33:03.880 --> 00:33:05.880
<v Speaker 2>tell not only in how he talks and what he says,

749
00:33:05.920 --> 00:33:08.519
<v Speaker 2>but like his body language. Man, he's he's as he's

750
00:33:08.559 --> 00:33:10.359
<v Speaker 2>as bummed as anybody that the team that they that

751
00:33:10.359 --> 00:33:11.200
<v Speaker 2>they're in this position.

752
00:33:12.119 --> 00:33:13.119
<v Speaker 5>Oh yeah, he wears it.

753
00:33:13.279 --> 00:33:16.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, And look and that matters too again, like you

754
00:33:16.680 --> 00:33:18.279
<v Speaker 2>gotta win. Like if you lose all the time and

755
00:33:18.319 --> 00:33:19.720
<v Speaker 2>you wear it, then you know what, you're a loser.

756
00:33:19.759 --> 00:33:21.200
<v Speaker 2>But I do think it goes a long way to

757
00:33:21.400 --> 00:33:24.039
<v Speaker 2>to to you know, not try to sell us like

758
00:33:24.079 --> 00:33:26.240
<v Speaker 2>Sadderfield did that. Don't know where boy's upset we would

759
00:33:26.240 --> 00:33:27.359
<v Speaker 2>do a bowl game last year?

760
00:33:28.400 --> 00:33:28.640
<v Speaker 1>Right.

761
00:33:29.200 --> 00:33:32.240
<v Speaker 5>He knows that the bar is higher than where they're

762
00:33:32.240 --> 00:33:34.039
<v Speaker 5>at right now. He knows that this team is better

763
00:33:34.079 --> 00:33:37.039
<v Speaker 5>than four and three and hoping to win and win

764
00:33:37.160 --> 00:33:38.960
<v Speaker 5>enough games to make a bowl game. This is a

765
00:33:39.039 --> 00:33:42.160
<v Speaker 5>team that's better than barely making a Bowl game, so

766
00:33:42.279 --> 00:33:44.640
<v Speaker 5>he knows that he's he's just as upset as the

767
00:33:44.720 --> 00:33:45.640
<v Speaker 5>fans are, no.

768
00:33:45.559 --> 00:33:47.680
<v Speaker 2>Doubt about it. All Right. We got to see Pat

769
00:33:47.720 --> 00:33:50.000
<v Speaker 2>Kelsey's team in action on Monday night at the Young Center,

770
00:33:50.039 --> 00:33:53.039
<v Speaker 2>taking on an exhibition opponent, Young Harris. They bombed twenty

771
00:33:53.039 --> 00:33:56.000
<v Speaker 2>four to threes, won by a humongous margin, and we're

772
00:33:56.000 --> 00:33:58.920
<v Speaker 2>pretty entertaining. I mean, it's entertaining when you watch your

773
00:33:58.920 --> 00:34:01.200
<v Speaker 2>team play and they can win big. But the way

774
00:34:01.200 --> 00:34:03.200
<v Speaker 2>they play, as far as the style, they're going to

775
00:34:03.240 --> 00:34:05.680
<v Speaker 2>get a lot of shots up. Just your first impression

776
00:34:05.720 --> 00:34:07.519
<v Speaker 2>of seeing this team in person. I know they played

777
00:34:07.519 --> 00:34:09.360
<v Speaker 2>a couple of games in the Bahamas, but you know,

778
00:34:09.519 --> 00:34:11.519
<v Speaker 2>getting close to it actually being real here in the

779
00:34:11.519 --> 00:34:14.039
<v Speaker 2>next couple weeks.

780
00:34:14.079 --> 00:34:15.960
<v Speaker 5>It's fun to see them, like, look like they know

781
00:34:16.039 --> 00:34:19.960
<v Speaker 5>what they're doing. They got an identity, Yeah, they have

782
00:34:20.000 --> 00:34:20.719
<v Speaker 5>an identity.

783
00:34:20.760 --> 00:34:24.519
<v Speaker 3>I don't anticipate seeing them shoot fifty plus three pointers

784
00:34:24.559 --> 00:34:27.400
<v Speaker 3>a game, and I think that was part of the

785
00:34:27.440 --> 00:34:28.079
<v Speaker 3>team they were.

786
00:34:27.960 --> 00:34:30.480
<v Speaker 5>Playing, was kind of letting them shoot for some reason,

787
00:34:30.719 --> 00:34:33.559
<v Speaker 5>because they wasn't like they were just jacking up shots.

788
00:34:33.559 --> 00:34:34.719
<v Speaker 5>Those were open shots.

789
00:34:34.800 --> 00:34:36.199
<v Speaker 3>A lot of those came off with a couple of

790
00:34:36.239 --> 00:34:38.519
<v Speaker 3>passes and got the open shots, so it wasn't like

791
00:34:38.559 --> 00:34:40.960
<v Speaker 3>they were just coming down just throwing up threes. But

792
00:34:41.559 --> 00:34:44.639
<v Speaker 3>the only thing that they concermy was the rebounding because

793
00:34:45.440 --> 00:34:47.760
<v Speaker 3>they I think they ended up out rebounding.

794
00:34:47.280 --> 00:34:49.960
<v Speaker 5>Them by double digits. But it was fairly even for

795
00:34:50.000 --> 00:34:52.079
<v Speaker 5>a good chunk of the game. So that was something.

796
00:34:52.599 --> 00:34:54.639
<v Speaker 5>If you have to have a criticism that I guess

797
00:34:54.760 --> 00:34:58.079
<v Speaker 5>that would be it. But they it was fun to watch.

798
00:34:58.119 --> 00:35:01.639
<v Speaker 5>It was fun to hear the young loud, and then

799
00:35:02.159 --> 00:35:04.039
<v Speaker 5>it was fun to be in an exhibition game that

800
00:35:04.119 --> 00:35:06.519
<v Speaker 5>you wasn't on pins and needles about because this is

801
00:35:06.559 --> 00:35:08.199
<v Speaker 5>an exhibition game is supposed.

802
00:35:07.920 --> 00:35:08.559
<v Speaker 2>To be a blowout.

803
00:35:08.760 --> 00:35:11.199
<v Speaker 5>So it's been good to have at least that part

804
00:35:11.199 --> 00:35:11.400
<v Speaker 5>of it.

805
00:35:11.440 --> 00:35:14.159
<v Speaker 2>Be Yeah, And and Kentucky's got their first exhibition game

806
00:35:14.159 --> 00:35:16.679
<v Speaker 2>tonight against Westland, a team that did beat Louisville last year.

807
00:35:16.920 --> 00:35:18.239
<v Speaker 2>I'm not sure if you've got a chance to see

808
00:35:18.320 --> 00:35:20.880
<v Speaker 2>much of the Blue White Game or any of this

809
00:35:21.000 --> 00:35:22.880
<v Speaker 2>Kentucky team at this point. I know they've had media

810
00:35:22.960 --> 00:35:26.000
<v Speaker 2>days and whatnot, but you know, similar situations here, new

811
00:35:26.000 --> 00:35:28.719
<v Speaker 2>coaches and really brand new teams for for for these

812
00:35:28.719 --> 00:35:31.039
<v Speaker 2>two coaches, who do you I mean who are you?

813
00:35:31.199 --> 00:35:33.320
<v Speaker 2>Who are you hearing? Who have you seen that you

814
00:35:33.400 --> 00:35:35.559
<v Speaker 2>feel like is going to be like the guy for

815
00:35:35.719 --> 00:35:37.400
<v Speaker 2>Kentucky this year? Is it similar to Louis of the

816
00:35:37.400 --> 00:35:38.880
<v Speaker 2>to where it's probably going to be a collection of

817
00:35:38.920 --> 00:35:41.039
<v Speaker 2>guys or do you think they're gonna they're gonna have

818
00:35:41.079 --> 00:35:42.840
<v Speaker 2>a guy that sort of you know, is the straw

819
00:35:42.880 --> 00:35:45.920
<v Speaker 2>that stirs their drink as they say, it feels like.

820
00:35:45.920 --> 00:35:48.079
<v Speaker 5>It's going to be a collection of guys, especially when

821
00:35:48.079 --> 00:35:51.440
<v Speaker 5>you have so many new faces around there. Lamont Butler

822
00:35:51.480 --> 00:35:54.199
<v Speaker 5>he does kind of stand out for him and Jackson

823
00:35:54.280 --> 00:35:56.400
<v Speaker 5>Robinson does. I've been impressed with what I've seen with

824
00:35:56.519 --> 00:35:59.599
<v Speaker 5>Colin Chandler, the UH freshman they came in it had

825
00:36:00.320 --> 00:36:03.239
<v Speaker 5>had a miss a miss because of a Mormon mission.

826
00:36:03.840 --> 00:36:05.400
<v Speaker 5>He is crazy athletic.

827
00:36:05.440 --> 00:36:08.000
<v Speaker 3>I was going to when he when he first committed.

828
00:36:08.000 --> 00:36:11.199
<v Speaker 3>I was looking at some of his high you can

829
00:36:11.280 --> 00:36:13.559
<v Speaker 3>take here or there, but which you can't see as

830
00:36:13.599 --> 00:36:15.280
<v Speaker 3>this kid is a heck of an athlete.

831
00:36:15.440 --> 00:36:18.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, former former five star recruit, I believe, Yeah.

832
00:36:19.000 --> 00:36:21.920
<v Speaker 5>And he's going to be a fan favorite. He has

833
00:36:21.960 --> 00:36:23.039
<v Speaker 5>a little bit of an accent.

834
00:36:23.119 --> 00:36:27.119
<v Speaker 3>He's a nice Kid's got the curly hair, but he

835
00:36:27.159 --> 00:36:29.280
<v Speaker 3>can simply jump out of the gym.

836
00:36:29.320 --> 00:36:31.519
<v Speaker 5>He had a nice dunk in that blue white scrimmage.

837
00:36:31.719 --> 00:36:33.239
<v Speaker 5>I think he's gonna be kind of the guy that

838
00:36:33.400 --> 00:36:35.519
<v Speaker 5>kind of stands out the most. And then of course

839
00:36:35.519 --> 00:36:38.199
<v Speaker 5>they're gonna root on Travis Perry and Trent Noah.

840
00:36:38.039 --> 00:36:41.400
<v Speaker 3>Because I was the Kentucky kids, and I really I

841
00:36:41.679 --> 00:36:42.519
<v Speaker 3>like Travis Perry.

842
00:36:42.559 --> 00:36:43.599
<v Speaker 5>I saw Travis Perry.

843
00:36:44.159 --> 00:36:46.199
<v Speaker 2>He's gonna be really good. I watched him in high school.

844
00:36:46.239 --> 00:36:48.599
<v Speaker 2>I'm I I think he'll be way better than most

845
00:36:48.599 --> 00:36:51.079
<v Speaker 2>are anticipating guys. One of the best shooters I've ever seen.

846
00:36:52.079 --> 00:36:55.239
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I saw him give Reed Shepherd thirty points And.

847
00:36:56.800 --> 00:36:59.559
<v Speaker 2>Was that was that at the Shelby at the Collins game? Yes,

848
00:36:59.679 --> 00:37:01.880
<v Speaker 2>I was there too, Man, that was that was memorable?

849
00:37:02.760 --> 00:37:03.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

850
00:37:03.199 --> 00:37:04.800
<v Speaker 5>He was something else and I was like, who is

851
00:37:04.840 --> 00:37:05.320
<v Speaker 5>this kid?

852
00:37:05.920 --> 00:37:06.159
<v Speaker 1>Yeah?

853
00:37:06.320 --> 00:37:06.760
<v Speaker 3>Where's that?

854
00:37:06.920 --> 00:37:07.320
<v Speaker 5>Where's that?

855
00:37:09.159 --> 00:37:11.199
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? He's He's a hell of a player, no doubt.

856
00:37:11.199 --> 00:37:13.000
<v Speaker 2>But Kendrick, we got to run. Is always. I appreciate

863
00:37:28.400 --> 00:37:30.519
<v Speaker 2>off today. John. With Tim Walls in town, I know

864
00:37:30.559 --> 00:37:34.400
<v Speaker 2>you're ready to go support him. I'm kidding. Yeah, he

865
00:37:34.719 --> 00:37:36.559
<v Speaker 2>just landed an hour ago, and I'm only bringing it

866
00:37:36.599 --> 00:37:38.559
<v Speaker 2>up because, like I fear now that, like with this

867
00:37:38.880 --> 00:37:42.599
<v Speaker 2>kind of a visitor in town, maybe like traffic's going

868
00:37:42.639 --> 00:37:44.519
<v Speaker 2>to be terrible because they're like, you know, shutting down

869
00:37:44.599 --> 00:37:47.679
<v Speaker 2>roads so Tim Walls can can I mean, the only

870
00:37:47.719 --> 00:37:50.239
<v Speaker 2>Walls that matters around here, folks is Jeff Walls. So

871
00:37:51.039 --> 00:37:52.679
<v Speaker 2>if you're going to shut down the street for a Walls,

872
00:37:52.679 --> 00:37:55.039
<v Speaker 2>do it for Jeff, not this guy who's here, you

873
00:37:55.079 --> 00:37:58.360
<v Speaker 2>know obviously to do Yeah, that's right, that's right. Tamp

874
00:37:58.440 --> 00:38:01.559
<v Speaker 2>uh is it tampon him? Is that what they call him? Yeah? Yeah,

875
00:38:01.559 --> 00:38:03.559
<v Speaker 2>So he's in town, he's here, he's arrived. I just

876
00:38:03.559 --> 00:38:07.079
<v Speaker 2>saw a story from WCHS eleven that shows him getting

877
00:38:07.119 --> 00:38:09.320
<v Speaker 2>off a plane. All right, let's talk about Jefferson Animal

878
00:38:09.360 --> 00:38:12.320
<v Speaker 2>Hospital real quick before we say goodbye, because look, your pets,

879
00:38:12.360 --> 00:38:15.159
<v Speaker 2>they're your family. You love them, you want them to

880
00:38:15.159 --> 00:38:18.199
<v Speaker 2>be healthy, and they cannot communicate with you. The same way.

881
00:38:18.239 --> 00:38:21.639
<v Speaker 2>You know humans can, so it never hurts to just

882
00:38:21.639 --> 00:38:23.119
<v Speaker 2>go get him checked out if it's been a while.

883
00:38:23.119 --> 00:38:24.480
<v Speaker 2>And if you're going to do that, you need to

884
00:38:24.480 --> 00:38:26.039
<v Speaker 2>do it first of all. You should do it, and

885
00:38:26.039 --> 00:38:28.400
<v Speaker 2>you should be doing it at Jefferson Animal Hospital on

886
00:38:28.480 --> 00:38:31.119
<v Speaker 2>outer Loop. They've been around since nineteen eighty, taking care

887
00:38:31.480 --> 00:38:34.039
<v Speaker 2>of your pets, keeping them healthy for forty four years.

888
00:38:34.159 --> 00:38:37.480
