Speaker 1: Thank you John.
Speaker 2: Good morning, Kentucky, and it is six oh five here
Speaker 2: on a rainy and wet Thursday morning. It is Kentucky,
Speaker 2: and it's Morning News with Nick Coffee on news Radio
Speaker 2: eight forty whas. And again I want to remind folks
Speaker 2: if you bought a lottery ticket at the Kroger, which
Speaker 2: we need to talk about Kroger once again because it
Speaker 2: sounds as if there's another location that may have a
Speaker 2: potential rodent issue, which is certainly not good. But maybe
Speaker 2: I'm maybe I'm in the wrong here for thinking that
Speaker 2: this is this is to see it happen at two places.
Speaker 2: I mean, that's you may want to shut down everything
Speaker 2: for a brief moment just to make sure everything is
Speaker 2: super clean. But anyways, if you won a if you
Speaker 2: purchased a lottery ticket here recently, in fact, on it
Speaker 2: would be Tuesday, you may you may be a winner.
Speaker 2: Because we've got a winner of the twenty five yet.
Speaker 2: So it's twenty five thousand dollars a year for life,
Speaker 2: and this was purchased at the Lagrange Road Kroger. And
Speaker 2: I mean twenty five k or the rest of your
Speaker 2: life every year would be big.
Speaker 1: But we did discuss earlier.
Speaker 2: We would be lump some here, which three hundred and
Speaker 2: ninety thousand dollars is what you can take is just
Speaker 2: a one time It is just a one time payment,
Speaker 2: all right. So with the current situation going on in
Speaker 2: Iran and in Israel, what Donald Trump does from here
Speaker 2: is seemingly what understandably so a lot of Americans are
Speaker 2: just sitting back waiting to see and with this current president,
Speaker 2: I mean, when anything really surprised you to say that
Speaker 2: he can be a wild card?
Speaker 1: Is that a stretch? Probably not right.
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't think I'm talking at a turn here,
Speaker 2: but I'm sure others may not agree, and that's totally fine.
Speaker 2: I'm not here to try to try to change your
Speaker 2: opinion in any way. But what we do know is
Speaker 2: that there is no, seemingly no plans or any itch
Speaker 2: to get America involved in what would be essentially World
Speaker 2: War three. So that's good news, right, Who would say
Speaker 2: that's not good news?
Speaker 1: That's good news.
Speaker 2: Now, what else we learned yesterday is that he claims
Speaker 2: iran Is is wanting to come to the White House
Speaker 2: and basically have a powwow, and I guess try to
Speaker 2: figure some things out, which I hear that, and I'm thinking, Okay,
Speaker 2: that's that's good. That's that means we're making progress as
Speaker 2: far as getting things headed in the direction of being
Speaker 2: more peaceful. But doesn't sound as if he's he's willing
Speaker 2: to have those conversations, because obviously they didn't. They didn't
Speaker 2: do this in the timely manner that he was expecting
Speaker 2: and I guess honestly requesting.
Speaker 1: So this is big news, by.
Speaker 2: The way, and this this, this is probably to be
Speaker 2: expected when you're in a situation quite like this. But
Speaker 2: the Wall Street Journal is the first that I saw
Speaker 2: that reported that he has signed off on the plans
Speaker 2: to hit Iran's nuclear sights. It's just he's not given
Speaker 2: any kind of final green light in order to to,
Speaker 2: you know, to actually take action. So as of yesterday,
Speaker 2: in fact, I think it was more so, Yeah, it
Speaker 2: was Tuesday, that is, whenever he told his team at
Speaker 2: the White House that the next twenty four to forty
Speaker 2: eight hours are going to be crucial and we are
Speaker 2: certainly in we're getting towards the end of that window
Speaker 2: at times. So again, we'll keep you updated as best
Speaker 2: we can throughout the morning, really throughout the entire day
Speaker 2: here at NewsRadio eight forty wahs. If you've got some
Speaker 2: thoughts on this that you want to share and you
Speaker 2: are listening to us on the iHeartRadio app, feel free
Speaker 2: to use the talkback feature. I'm sure you know there's
Speaker 2: some that have some strong opinions on it, and we'll
Speaker 2: let you guys share those with us. So again, just
Speaker 2: hit that microphone button on the ihet Radio app, and
Speaker 2: it's that easy. You hit the button, you're prompted to
Speaker 2: record for up to thirty seconds. You can share whatever
Speaker 2: it is you want and then it's right here in
Speaker 2: our little portal. So again, want to remind you, guys,
Speaker 2: that's an option, because I'm sure there's been times where
Speaker 2: you felt the need to share your thoughts on whatever
Speaker 2: it is we're talking about, or maybe something even one
Speaker 2: of our guests that comes on the show discusses. So again,
Speaker 2: I want to remind you that that option is there,
Speaker 2: and that'll be a way we can can have some
Speaker 2: interaction on this show, which I think will be a
Speaker 2: little different than what this show has been for many
Speaker 2: many years. What I want to get to coming up
Speaker 2: in about five minutes or so, the latest with the
Speaker 2: U of l athletics budget, so they're going to have,
Speaker 2: like a lot of athletic departments across the country, they're
Speaker 2: going to have a shortfall when it comes to to
Speaker 2: to money. I mean they have I believe one hundred
Speaker 2: and sixty seven point four million in expenses.
Speaker 1: That's the latest. Yeah, that was that was according to
Speaker 1: Air Crawford.
Speaker 2: A WDRB, and yet they only have one hundred and
Speaker 2: fifty four point nine million in revenue. So that's that's
Speaker 2: that's it's going to lead to some tough cuts that
Speaker 2: are going to impact really every sport to an extent,
Speaker 2: but certainly the non revenue programs out there, and as
Speaker 2: far as just some potential things that could be really
Speaker 2: noticeable when you get there as a fan, when you're
Speaker 2: watching and you're seeing things, but maybe you wouldn't think
Speaker 2: about it until you know you get there. Those are
Speaker 2: some things I want to share with you guys coming
Speaker 2: up here. We'll do that in about five minutes time.
Speaker 2: But now it is time to get another update on
Speaker 2: our traffic out there in the Kentucky and area with
Speaker 2: Bobby Ellis, and of course we'll take a look at
Speaker 2: the current forecast and of course what we're expecting the
Speaker 2: rest of the day right here on news.
Speaker 1: Radio eight forty whs.
Speaker 2: It's six sixteen here at Kentucky and his morning News
Speaker 2: with Nick Coffee on news Radio eight forty whas. So
Speaker 2: last week it was the University of Kentucky that announced
Speaker 2: that they were going to be making some investments in
Speaker 2: new revenue streams within their athletics department, because everybody around
Speaker 2: the country when it comes to college athletics is in
Speaker 2: need of more revenue streams because again, twenty million dollars
Speaker 2: plus moving forward is a big expense. That's an annual
Speaker 2: payment that didn't use to exist and now it does.
Speaker 2: And some will be able to deal with this much
Speaker 2: easier than others, but the majority, you're going to have
Speaker 2: to make some real adjustments here, because again, twenty million
Speaker 2: is a lot of money for really anybody. I mean, again,
Speaker 2: there are schools that have revenue coming in and support
Speaker 2: from donors and whatnot that won't make this as big
Speaker 2: of a deal. But it's certainly it's not something that
Speaker 2: just it's not something that goes unnoticed to where you're
Speaker 2: not making at least some kind of changes. But the
Speaker 2: University of Louisll's Athletic department. They're navigating what is a
Speaker 2: twelve and a half million dollar deficit for their twenty
Speaker 2: twenty five to twenty six budget. So this again is
Speaker 2: driven by this twenty point five million dollar commitment that
Speaker 2: they are making to the athlete revenue sharing that's under
Speaker 2: the NCAA's House Settlement that just became official in the
Speaker 2: last few weeks. So again, one hundred and sixty seven
Speaker 2: point four million in expenses and only one hundred and
Speaker 2: fifty four point nine million in revenue that is going
Speaker 2: to lead to this department making tough cuts that are
Speaker 2: going to impact all sports, but really those that are
Speaker 2: non revenue programs like women's basketball, although they do make
Speaker 2: I mean, they're not They have one of the highest
Speaker 2: attended how do I want to word this? Their attendance
Speaker 2: is not only strong for women's college basketball, but we're
Speaker 2: just we're spoiled around here. We probably don't even realize it,
Speaker 2: but I think Jeff Wall's program, in their good years,
Speaker 2: maybe not even in their best years, they actually have
Speaker 2: more people that come to their games on average than
Speaker 2: most of the ACC men's teams. So they aren't big,
Speaker 2: they aren't a big revenue producer compared to football and
Speaker 2: men's basketball, but I think more so like soccer, volleyball, baseball,
Speaker 2: track swimming, those are the kind of sports that you
Speaker 2: could really see some tough cuts. And I don't mean
Speaker 2: all those sports are going to be cut, but just
Speaker 2: you know, maybe some slight changes to the resources they
Speaker 2: currently get, knowing that they already get less than most
Speaker 2: because again, they don't produce revenue. They cost money. And
Speaker 2: that's not an insult, that's not me passing judgment.
Speaker 1: That's just the facts. That's just how it works.
Speaker 2: So to address the shortfall, they they've reduced financial aid
Speaker 2: by three point four million, cut travel and meal budgets,
Speaker 2: froze capital spending, and you know, these are things that
Speaker 2: you that you've that you just got to you know,
Speaker 2: you got to keep in mind.
Speaker 1: Also there's a facility freeze.
Speaker 2: That will put a halt on capital spending stops also
Speaker 2: putting a stop to training facilities, uh as far as
Speaker 2: upgrades to the training facilities, locker room, stadiums, that kind
Speaker 2: of stuff. So you've got some programs that have probably
Speaker 2: been letting the administration know as best they can that
Speaker 2: they are in need of an update. When it comes
Speaker 2: to their venue and their resources. But now the likelihood
Speaker 2: of that happening anytime soon becomes very very unlikely. So
Speaker 2: here is where the operational effects could could could come in.
Speaker 2: So you have reduced travel budgets, which is going to
Speaker 2: likely lead to fewer high profile tournaments, right. I mean
Speaker 2: there's a lot of n season tournaments that take place
Speaker 2: for for not only men's when it's basketball, but also volleyball.
Speaker 2: And when you don't have the budget to travel to
Speaker 2: take play to take part in these events, I mean
Speaker 2: that that that's gonna, that's gonna it's gonna impact you.
Speaker 2: So you also limit the exposure in NCUBA tournament chances
Speaker 2: when you don't play in some of these some of
Speaker 2: these events and when you know, when you end up
Speaker 2: getting to the tournament. This is something a lot of
Speaker 2: fans may not realize, but anytime you're in the tournament,
Speaker 2: there's a payout, like you're making money by NCUBAA tournament
Speaker 2: appearances from the NCUBA. So again we'll get into more
Speaker 2: of the I guess potential impact here as far as
Speaker 2: what the non revenue sports could look like. But it's
Speaker 2: not just those sports. Those are the ones that I
Speaker 2: would be worried about most if I'm a fan and
Speaker 2: that look, we're all if you're a Louisville fan, you're
Speaker 2: you want all the sports to do well, right, But
Speaker 2: if you're a non revenue sport, I mean, this is
Speaker 2: this is not an ideal time. But again, even those
Speaker 2: that produce money like football and basketball, men's basketball, that's
Speaker 2: really what feeds the athletic department here locally for both
Speaker 2: Louisville and Kentucky. You know, for Louisville there's clearly gonna
Speaker 2: be some some changes there too. Maybe maybe it won't
Speaker 2: be as noticeable, but this is you can't have a
Speaker 2: twenty million dollar annual payment now in place and not
Speaker 2: see some real lingering effects of that. All right, we've
Speaker 2: got another update of news. Actually I'm sorry. We got
Speaker 2: updated trafficking weather coming your way. Then we'll hit sports,
Speaker 2: and then we'll hit news. It's six twenty at Kentucky
Speaker 2: and it's Morning News on News Radio eight forty WHS.
Speaker 1: Thank you, John.
Speaker 2: It is six thirty four here at Kentucky and is
Speaker 2: Morning News with Nick Coffee on News Radio eight forty whas.
Speaker 2: Thanks for hanging out with us here on a rainy
Speaker 2: Thursday morning a juneteenth edition of Kentucky and His Morning News.
Speaker 2: A federal holiday, of course, meaning it's one of those
Speaker 2: comp days. I don't know if if the one and
Speaker 2: only John Alden agrees with me on this, but a
Speaker 2: comp day it really doesn't change anything for everybody involved,
Speaker 2: because there are those who work in the off air department,
Speaker 2: meaning there's a lot of different departments here of course
Speaker 2: within our company of iHeartMedia that you know that they
Speaker 2: get this day off, and we can take the day
Speaker 2: off if we'd like and use it as a holiday,
Speaker 2: but if we do work, we end up just getting
Speaker 2: an added vacation day down the line to use. They
Speaker 2: call those comp days, And again it all evens out.
Speaker 2: Let's just say somebody in the on air in the
Speaker 2: non on air department decided, you know, let's just say
Speaker 2: that me, Scott John, and two other people that don't
Speaker 2: work in the on air department that are not working today,
Speaker 2: we all had the same amount of vacation time for
Speaker 2: the year, and they took the day off and all
Speaker 2: of us worked and we get a comp day. It's
Speaker 2: the exact same amount of time off. But isn't there
Speaker 2: some sweet about knowing you can just pick when you
Speaker 2: get to take the day off.
Speaker 1: Oh, it's the best.
Speaker 2: I'm manipulating the situation to feel like I'm getting over
Speaker 2: on the man, I suppose, but I've always felt.
Speaker 3: That way one of the best things or the best
Speaker 3: ways to do it, especially coming up. I mean, you
Speaker 3: could take a four day weekend with fourth of July,
Speaker 3: with it being on a Friday, you can take off
Speaker 3: that Monday after the Thursday before. It seems like the
Speaker 3: options are endless, right.
Speaker 2: I need, I need to lean on your advice there,
Speaker 2: because you're right using com days to stretch other holidays
Speaker 2: into even longer weekends. That's the way to go. And
Speaker 2: so that's where we win and they lose. And I
Speaker 2: don't mean to and we're not. We're on the same
Speaker 2: team here. But the office is going to be empty
Speaker 2: today because of course it is Juneteenth and it's a holiday,
Speaker 2: and we're here working and I wouldn't wouldn't want to.
Speaker 1: Be anywhere else, all right. So this this list.
Speaker 2: Is one that I that I am excited to talk
Speaker 2: about because I can't imagine being somebody that is uh
Speaker 2: and in a nick you nurse that is hearing of
Speaker 2: a baby's name for the first time, and at times
Speaker 2: has to probably try really hard to hide some kind
Speaker 2: of reaction. I would assume that you don't insult the
Speaker 2: parents based off what they want to name their kid.
Speaker 2: That didn't happen to you. You're the most recent one
Speaker 2: to have a baby, John, nobody insulted you guys by
Speaker 2: picking the BEAUTIFU name. Daisy would assume it's beautiful day.
Speaker 2: But there's some names that aren't aren't good, aren't great.
Speaker 2: But I guess that's all you know. You look, you
Speaker 2: can name your kid whatever you want, But there are
Speaker 2: some that I would I would have a hard time
Speaker 2: not giving at least like some body language that is
Speaker 2: giving my surprise that that that's that's that's what's your
Speaker 2: name and your child that's not not a real name.
Speaker 1: But anyhow.
Speaker 2: There is a TikTok video of a nurse in Florida
Speaker 2: who is sharing us some names that have that have
Speaker 2: that have popped up and been used by parents during
Speaker 2: her time in the in the healthcare world. There were twins,
Speaker 2: one boy, one girl, Brock b R O C K
Speaker 2: Lee l E E oh Man and then the other
Speaker 2: twin was Calli Flowers c A L L I E.
Speaker 2: And then flowers the middle name. I mean, you're just setting.
Speaker 1: You you're asking, Yeah, you're meet Look, your kid.
Speaker 2: Is going to be walking into a world of not
Speaker 2: only potential teasing, but just a conversation that will never
Speaker 2: not be there when they meet somebody for the first time.
Speaker 1: Wait a second, your name is brock Lee.
Speaker 2: I mean you know why you're doing that to your kids?
Speaker 2: I mean cause I guess there's a chance that maybe
Speaker 2: there's some kind of connection there and it's got a
Speaker 2: special sentimental meaning. But I doubt it. I mean I
Speaker 2: don't know that for certain, but I doubt it. And
Speaker 2: there's a family who has the last name Ball that
Speaker 2: had a son and a daughter within a couple of
Speaker 2: years time. And the son's name is Canon and the
Speaker 2: daughter's name is Crystal cannon.
Speaker 1: Ball Crystal ball Man. And again these aren't.
Speaker 2: That's not a coincidence, right, Like, that's just I guess,
Speaker 2: trying to have fun but also potentially setting your children
Speaker 2: up to be.
Speaker 1: Teased.
Speaker 2: And I don't condone anybody making fun of anybody for
Speaker 2: their name they can't control. They didn't pick it. Nobody
Speaker 2: gets to pick their name at birth. Now, maybe you
Speaker 2: can change it, but you know, even though I don't
Speaker 2: condone it and would wish that people wouldn't tease people
Speaker 2: about anything, like, let's be real, that's that's not the
Speaker 2: world that we live in. There is also a nurse
Speaker 2: that chimed in here in the comments action that this
Speaker 2: almost I don't want to say this is a lie,
Speaker 2: but this, if this is true, this is just this
Speaker 2: is beyond unbelievable felony p h E l O N Y,
Speaker 2: Like who would pick that name? So again, you can
Speaker 2: you have the right to name your kid nearly I
Speaker 2: mean almost anything you want, right, I mean, what.
Speaker 3: A cute little fellon me.
Speaker 2: There are there are certain there are certain names that
Speaker 2: like you're not allowed to use, and in fact that
Speaker 2: maybe a list that we can look at at some point,
Speaker 2: just because I think you know, it may surprise you
Speaker 2: hearing some names that that you're not allowed to technically
Speaker 2: put on a birth certificate. But what gets me, like,
Speaker 2: you can, you have the right to name your kid
Speaker 2: just about anything. But what gets me is when people
Speaker 2: think they also have the right to rewrite how the
Speaker 2: English language works. I mean, I'll call your kid by
Speaker 2: the name you give them, but don't expect me to
Speaker 2: like ignore that you just decided to tell us that
Speaker 2: you don't know how to spell. I mean, I'll give
Speaker 2: you an example. This is always the when that comes
Speaker 2: to mind for me. Tom Brinneman, son of Marty Burnaman,
Speaker 2: who of course is a broadcaster, and he became a
Speaker 2: bigger name with a big goof that he had in
Speaker 2: twenty twenty, but he since bounced back from that and
Speaker 2: is back in broadcasting. But his name is Tom, but
Speaker 2: he spells it thhom thomb like I'll call you Tom,
Speaker 2: your name is thomb like if that's if that's what
Speaker 2: I'm looking at. Your name's thomb, but you go by Tom.
Speaker 2: That's that's really what we're doing here. And I guess
Speaker 2: what they're trying to do is you know, there's a
Speaker 2: lot of Thomas's that I guess th h O M
Speaker 2: A S Thomas And then yeah, exactly, it's kind of
Speaker 2: like me, like I added a K to the end
Speaker 2: of my name, but you know, technically it doesn't exist.
Speaker 2: So maybe I'm maybe I need to look in the mirror,
Speaker 2: maybe I'm doing technically what I'm And I.
Speaker 1: Guess it was still by the way, it was regardless
Speaker 1: of how you spell it. And I see R N
Speaker 1: c K.
Speaker 2: It still would say the same thing, but again, like
Speaker 2: I'll call your kid what you want, but I'm also
Speaker 2: I'm also going to be willing to look you in
Speaker 2: the eye and say again, they go by that, But
Speaker 2: I know the English language and I know how to spell.
Speaker 2: I've got Bully County Public School education, and that spells thomb. Anyways,
Speaker 2: we'll get back into this list a little bit later on.
Speaker 2: Maybe you can use the talkback feature and share a
Speaker 2: name of somebody that you found to be unbelievable, only
Speaker 2: to find out their parents really really did that. All right,
Speaker 2: We've got an update of traffic and weather coming your way,
Speaker 2: so stick around right here. It's six forty one at
Speaker 2: Kentucky and it's Morning News on News Radio eight forty WHS.
Speaker 2: It is six forty seven here at Kentucky and is
Speaker 2: Morning News with Nick Coffee on News Radio eight forty WHS.
Speaker 2: Just a few minutes away from another update on traffic
Speaker 2: and weather. Also in about eight minutes, we'll get an
Speaker 2: update on sports with Scott Fitzgerald, something that certainly is
Speaker 2: worth mentioning, but it's not not necessarily great news, and
Speaker 2: that is the interest rates currently that have been an
Speaker 2: issue for quite some time, but.
Speaker 1: The Federal Reserve held its Federal held.
Speaker 2: Its benchmark interest rate steady yesterday with the decision to
Speaker 2: keep it between four points twenty five percent and four
Speaker 2: point five percent. And certainly that's that's that's an issue
Speaker 2: when it comes to to Donald Trump, I mean mean
Speaker 2: meaning he has an issue with it, which really shouldn't
Speaker 2: shouldn't surprise anyone because as you could expect, I mean
Speaker 2: that's look, I'm still trying to kind of navigate my
Speaker 2: way around discussing certain things with Donald Trump, because it's
Speaker 2: not as if I'm giving any kind of like strong
Speaker 2: opinion one way or the other. But you know, it's
Speaker 2: not it's not necessarily as they say, you know, maybe
Speaker 2: super presidential to see your your president come out and
Speaker 2: say that. And again, this is a word that a
Speaker 2: lot of us use, and maybe it's maybe it isn't
Speaker 2: maybe this word would be used more so by other presidents.
Speaker 2: I'm just ignorant to it. But President Trump did say
Speaker 2: that the the huge interest rate cuts. You know that
Speaker 2: he's calling for huge interest rate cuts to stimulate the economy.
Speaker 2: But he slammed the Chairman's your own pal for being
Speaker 2: in his words, stupid.
Speaker 1: So I tried not.
Speaker 2: To to share this information in such a tongue in
Speaker 2: cheek way. But the President is calling the chairman of
Speaker 2: the Federal Reserve stupid, and that's that's quite literally what
Speaker 2: we what we have here. So anyways, we'll talk about
Speaker 2: a little bit more when it comes to the Federal
Speaker 2: Reserve and and and interest rates.
Speaker 1: That are out there.
Speaker 2: Also what I want to remind you about and maybe
Speaker 2: let you know because we haven't you maybe you're just
Speaker 2: not joining us. We haven't discussed this yet in the
Speaker 2: last twenty minutes, but I do want to get to
Speaker 2: it coming up in the seven o'clock hour. Because the
Speaker 2: University of Louisville's athletic budget for the next for the
Speaker 2: upcoming year, I mean, they're they've they've got a real
Speaker 2: shortfall and with that they are they're taking on they're
Speaker 2: taking on a lot of credit and that that I
Speaker 2: think is is not something you you typically would see.
Speaker 2: But again it's a new world now when it comes
Speaker 2: to college athletics. So they've they've secured a twenty five
Speaker 2: million dollar line of credit from P and C Bank,
Speaker 2: and again that that's that's very telling. But also just
Speaker 2: know that They're not alone. This is happening across the
Speaker 2: country when it comes to college athletics because the recent
Speaker 2: house settlement that now is it's not a requirement, by
Speaker 2: the way, but if you want to compete at the
Speaker 2: highest level, you're going to need to share revenue, like
Speaker 2: the other schools that want to compete are sharing, because
Speaker 2: if you are in the market for players, rather it
Speaker 2: be high school kids or it is kids that are
Speaker 2: in the transfer portal, I guess at that point they.
Speaker 1: Wouldn't be kids.
Speaker 2: If your pitch is come and play here and get
Speaker 2: a great education, and don't you don't have to pay
Speaker 2: for any school. You'll have a place to live, you'll
Speaker 2: be taken care of. But we're not going to share
Speaker 2: any revenue with you at all. And you can maybe
Speaker 2: go get some menile money if you want. But we're
Speaker 2: just selling you on the experience. And I don't mean
Speaker 2: to mock that, because that is a great experience to
Speaker 2: be able to get college paid for and live a
Speaker 2: great lifestyle. And clearly the college athletes before NIL, especially
Speaker 2: those that played at high levels, they weren't going without right.
Speaker 2: They were still taken care of and they got a stipend.
Speaker 2: They got a cost of attendance, So they weren't they
Speaker 2: were living a pretty good life, but now they can
Speaker 2: really capitalize and put away a lot of money during
Speaker 2: their college athletics careers. So if you want to compete,
Speaker 2: which again, if you compete you have success, that's where
Speaker 2: you make money and you need that. The athletic department
Speaker 2: really drives revenue for a lot of schools or it's
Speaker 2: a big factor in it. So this is just the
Speaker 2: new cycle. You got to share revenue. Therefore, you get
Speaker 2: good players. That gives you a chance to compete at
Speaker 2: a high level. And when you compete at a high
Speaker 2: level and have success, you generate more revenue. So it's everywhere,
Speaker 2: not just U of L. But we'll talk a little
Speaker 2: more coming up in the seven o'clock hour when it
Speaker 2: comes to just the impact that you're going to see
Speaker 2: as far as cuts and what it means for not
Speaker 2: just the non revenue sports but the major sports. All right,
Speaker 2: let's get an update on traffic and weather right here,
Speaker 2: right now on news radio eight forty whas
