00:01:07
Speaker 3: It is AP's an auto glass text machine is seven seven two seven seven four five two five four. In this diition sponsored by the t J Smith Lofics called TJ He'll make him Pay. Yesterday I thought was one of our really fun shows. You didn't know what was gonna happen over the course of it, which I enjoyed. And I thought callers, you know, news breaking people flipping people off at the dunkin Donuts.

00:01:31
Speaker 5: I enjoyed the show. Run not gonna lie.

00:01:33
Speaker 4: There were several times after the segment we kind of looked each other like that was a good segment. At the end of the show, like that's a best of show. We need to run again. Yeah, we'll wrong. I do want to give a tip to Cap to the callers. You had him on a thirty second shot clock. I don't know if Shannon buzzed it, like maybe just one time all day he buzzed it.

00:01:47
Speaker 5: Yeah, he buzzed it. He buzzed it some you were just too locked in.

00:01:51
Speaker 2: He buzzed only collar I didn't buzz was fake Barney, because how can you buzz fake Barney.

00:01:56
Speaker 3: Yeah, singing a song. He's like, he's singing a song. What are you gonna do? Yeah?

00:02:00
Speaker 6: All right?

00:02:00
Speaker 3: So for me, there's like three things I really want to focus on today. But besides the ask anything, and then I'm sure I have some stories that I still haven't gotten to tell. I accidentally walked on a walked out on a restaurant bill.

00:02:14
Speaker 4: Oh oh no, they chase you down the park.

00:02:17
Speaker 3: Well, I'll tell the story. And I saw the breakup of a marriage. So I feel like both of those things I think we need to get to but we got to start for a second on the Vince thing. Sure, what do you guys make of the fact that, as of this morning he hasn't tendered his resignation in to UK and there still hasn't been an announcement at U L Is it.

00:02:37
Speaker 5: Something or is it nothing?

00:02:41
Speaker 3: I think it's no One at UK in an Athletics has heard anything from it.

00:02:46
Speaker 4: Right, there's not been an official statement released by anybody.

00:02:49
Speaker 5: I don't think any of them have heard anything from it.

00:02:52
Speaker 2: Did this leak out before they wanted it to? Maybe? And the eyes aren't dotted and the t's aren't crossed, and maybe that's what's going on.

00:02:59
Speaker 5: I think that's fair.

00:03:00
Speaker 4: Yep.

00:03:01
Speaker 3: I think that certainly happened. It leaked out on the Louisville side, which you know is interesting because Vince is a talker. I didn't know, right, he's the people he talks to in Kentucky didn't.

00:03:17
Speaker 4: Know apparently, Yeah, UK didn't know.

00:03:18
Speaker 3: UK didn't know. Mark Stoops was not even in town. Okay, I think Mark Stoops and Vince have talked, but I don't think anyone from UK Athletics has talked to it. UFL hasn't announced. It's been It's been almost forty eight hours.

00:03:33
Speaker 4: Yeah, like right, Uh.

00:03:35
Speaker 3: He had an interview scheduled with your guy, Michael Bennett, who saluted to Michael Bennett, I didn't know he had a show, and I was in no, I mean, that's gonna sound like a put down.

00:03:44
Speaker 5: I didn't know he had a show. And then everybody was like, hey, Matt Jones, what are you thinking your eye that Michael Bennett got the Vince Marrow interview.

00:03:53
Speaker 2: And I said, blasting, I said, I didn't know he had a show.

00:03:57
Speaker 3: So the biggest piece of news is congrats to Michael Minnett for having a show. But he said he had Vince and then he said Vince canceled.

00:04:10
Speaker 5: So it's been forty eight hours.

00:04:12
Speaker 3: I've not talked to Vince except for him to for thirty seconds tell me that guy flipped him off.

00:04:17
Speaker 5: Do you think there is you think that's something.

00:04:21
Speaker 4: I think it's that there's a little something there that the fact that there's been no communication between UK and Vince. I mean, how can you accept a job and you can't resign your other jobs of right now really all intensive purposes. Vince is still employed by the University of Kentucky.

00:04:36
Speaker 3: Legally yes, yes, yeah, I mean KSR. A young reporter named Matthew Harper Jones reported yesterday that UK had no idea. UK learned from the Pete fame oal tweet.

00:04:50
Speaker 4: Wow.

00:04:50
Speaker 3: Mark Stoops learned from the Pete fame oal tweet. The largest donors at UK and you can guess who they are, learned from the Pete fame will tweet.

00:05:02
Speaker 4: Wow, that's pretty amazing.

00:05:06
Speaker 3: I learned from the text machine that that the week before before, from that one person who still hasn't ridden me since then. N it was a flyby just said it was gone. But that's a bad look for Vince, don't you think, I mean like I don't, I don't care. You can't like roll out of town and have the employer that employed you for thirteen years find out from a tweet. Now, some people would see that and say, how does the school not know? But you know, how are they supposed to?

00:05:37
Speaker 4: Yeah, if you're negotiating with another school, I can almost see maybe not telling the school. But after it broke yesterday, I think you got to have those conversations at some point yesterday afternoon after our show should have been conversations. It broke Monday. Yeah, that's a bad look. It is.

00:05:54
Speaker 5: It is you gotta talk to your employer.

00:05:56
Speaker 2: Exactly, Like if I were to leave this show, you would be the first to know.

00:06:00
Speaker 5: If I found out you you were leaving to go to uh just the Cutlor.

00:06:08
Speaker 2: God, what a nightmare that would be.

00:06:12
Speaker 4: But you would have no filter. Filter.

00:06:15
Speaker 2: Yeah, you thalter me so much here.

00:06:16
Speaker 3: I can't say you would have. You would have no filter if you were to do that and I found out from Wildcat Tongue.

00:06:28
Speaker 7: You would thought hurt though, right, I mean, like you couldn't have told me after all these years that you were leaving.

00:06:35
Speaker 5: I had to find out from wildcat tongue, I would be frustrated, without question. And and you know when I put that information out, some people were blaming the athlete.

00:06:49
Speaker 4: I don't blame the A. I wouldn't sit.

00:06:51
Speaker 3: There and assume Shannon was gonna leave for just the cutler. And if he left for just the cutler and I found out from a tongue, I.

00:07:01
Speaker 4: Would be upset. It's just so crazy.

00:07:04
Speaker 5: So I understand Ryan why UK would be.

00:07:07
Speaker 4: Frustrated by that, completely understand it. So the conspiracy theorist would probably say, he ain't leaving. He wants to stay here. It's why he hasn't resigned yet.

00:07:15
Speaker 3: So is there a chance we see him walking down the street with his cat and a stroller.

00:07:22
Speaker 4: I don't think we'll see the dog.

00:07:25
Speaker 5: The dog, dog and a stroller.

00:07:28
Speaker 3: Is there a chance we see with the dog and a stroller with Keith Farmer and Maggie Davis outside of his house, which.

00:07:34
Speaker 4: You know last time on Big Blue Tonight they did not even mention it because it's not been released by.

00:07:38
Speaker 3: That interesting because again, and Maggie Davis is one of my favorite people on Earth, and Keith Farmer's always been nice.

00:07:45
Speaker 5: But they have to go through the UK marching order correct.

00:07:48
Speaker 3: And I know Maggie Davis well enough to know she wanted to talk about it, So the fact she didn't talk about it means they told her not to talk about it, which is interesting to me in and of it. But is there a chance that he's walking with his dog and a stroller in between Jeff Rubies and Tony's like hoping people hold up a boom box and ask him to come back.

00:08:12
Speaker 4: I don't think he's gonna be walking a dog, but I can see maybe having second thoughts.

00:08:18
Speaker 5: But you he can't come back.

00:08:20
Speaker 4: No, I mean he couldn't.

00:08:23
Speaker 2: If you're you allow him to come back.

00:08:25
Speaker 5: I don't think you can. I think this is one of those things like the fan bag.

00:08:28
Speaker 4: You can't. I think anything with cal I think he started having second thoughts, wanted to come back, it was too late.

00:08:33
Speaker 3: Here's here's I'm gonna This is exactly what I told Vince in December or November when the Louisville thing was first park light. I said, look, you can't do this again, like when he was talking about coming on the show. Yes, I was like, this has to be the last time, right, meaning like the fan base is not going to do a.

00:08:54
Speaker 4: Will he or won't he with you again? Huh?

00:08:57
Speaker 3: So like if you're coming back and you got to stay back, yeah, right, Like you can't keep doing this every year.

00:09:05
Speaker 2: Yeah, you can't. You can't keep flirting with teams and you're either all in or you're not.

00:09:09
Speaker 3: Yeah, you can't keep batting your eyes and like, right, there comes a point and and he stayed. But I think at this point the fan base would just be like, you're with him now, you made that choice.

00:09:23
Speaker 4: So many people yesterday I was at a golf scrabble and so many people came up and said, I knew when he came on with you guys in December something wasn't Like.

00:09:31
Speaker 2: Yeah, I could, I could read it for sure. You could just tell his demeanor was off.

00:09:35
Speaker 4: And we were at the pizza range.

00:09:36
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was zoned in on him, going, there's something up here, there's.

00:09:41
Speaker 4: Something right with the way.

00:09:42
Speaker 5: He wasn't the same in that conversation.

00:09:45
Speaker 2: You asked him about it, like are you going to take the job, and he goes, well, I'm not even going going to address that. He didn't answer you.

00:09:53
Speaker 5: Which is an amazing decides.

00:09:55
Speaker 2: That's just why you came back again at the end and asked that question. And that's the clip that I played for you yesterday when he hesitated again to answer it.

00:10:03
Speaker 5: So that's a great point. He was like a politician.

00:10:08
Speaker 4: Here's the other here's the other point. A lot of people brought up has he been checked out so long? That? Is that why we only have two recruits locked in for next year? Has he been checked out for a couple months?

00:10:17
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, I don't know how you could think otherwise. I mean we've never only had two no official visits from Ohio. I mean clearly, clearly something was up. I mean, I don't you know what. Look, Mark Stoops first of all, Mark Stoops as soon as whatever happens is official needs to talk.

00:10:35
Speaker 4: He does. We need to hear from our leader.

00:10:37
Speaker 3: And Vince, I mean he he's not I would say, Vince, like I'd love to have you on here, but like in your best interests, go sit with the with with the cards.

00:10:48
Speaker 5: Yeah, go sit there and listen to them. Go Okay, here we go.

00:10:52
Speaker 3: I mean their listenership will double from twenty to twenty five that day and let them, you know, like do that. Okay, that's what you' that's you now you decided to to l Yeah, so that's that. So if I'm nine two eight h twenty two eighty seven, ask anything Wednesday, feel free to call ask a question about that.

00:11:11
Speaker 5: Give your thoughts. I do want of though.

00:11:13
Speaker 3: The only thing I regretted about yesterdays shows we didn't get talk about Murray State because I the Murray State story would be an awesome story even if it wasn't in Kentucky. Agreed, right, Like if this story was in Montana, it would still be a great story.

00:11:27
Speaker 5: They're going to the College World Series.

00:11:30
Speaker 3: Their attendance, their capacity at their baseball stadium is eight hundred people. I mean, let's be real, Pike County Central's baseball stadium is probably bigger than that. I'd say every baseball stadium in Lexington's bigger than that, every high school stadium, right.

00:11:45
Speaker 4: And out of the eight hundred, probably only one hundred go to their home game.

00:11:48
Speaker 3: Nobody's there. I saw a picture of their stadium. It looks like a mediocre high school stadium.

00:11:53
Speaker 4: Yeah.

00:11:54
Speaker 3: I don't know if I believe the story that the manager mows the grass, but I like it.

00:11:59
Speaker 5: Shannon's almost you think the manager is the one that mows the grass.

00:12:02
Speaker 2: I could totally see that. Yeah, they don't have the funds to hire you know, a landscape up.

00:12:07
Speaker 5: Back to think state has someone that does like but you know what, let's just say he let's say he mows the girl.

00:12:13
Speaker 4: Yeah. What an awesome story. It is an awesome story.

00:12:16
Speaker 3: And to watch them win, you know, we didn't talk about it. They had already celebrated once.

00:12:22
Speaker 4: They had to win the game twice.

00:12:23
Speaker 2: The craziest ending I've ever seen, I think to a game.

00:12:27
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean they had a dog pile yep.

00:12:30
Speaker 5: Then then the baseball dumps were like, sorry, you guys do it again. It wasn't interference and they came out of the dog pile. The picture had been at the bottom of the dog pile.

00:12:40
Speaker 4: Yeah, he didn't get hurt. The picture had had the whole team on top of me, shirt tail hanging out. When he gets off the grim.

00:12:47
Speaker 5: You know, he's got like oat meal on his face and he's got a.

00:12:51
Speaker 4: I don't know.

00:12:52
Speaker 5: That was so so weird is how did he get the oat meal on his face? And he had to get up and pick and then he gets the guy out and then they don't poly again again, and uh it was great. I loved it.

00:13:07
Speaker 3: And I you know right the person see if he can come on tomorrow, I.

00:13:12
Speaker 4: Can get you the one of the pictures too.

00:13:15
Speaker 5: I like the manager gets a picture. I don't know what to say.

00:13:18
Speaker 4: To the pitch A guy who pictured that came in the first.

00:13:22
Speaker 5: And not see He's putting me on the spot, chanting like I'm turning down reso clin the manager.

00:13:27
Speaker 4: We have chemistry, Okay, gotcha, we have chemic Kirka skirt.

00:13:31
Speaker 2: Didn't even know his name to you.

00:13:32
Speaker 4: Just said that again, but we have we.

00:13:33
Speaker 5: Have chemistry Skirka and we connect.

00:13:37
Speaker 4: Just see the end of the game. He's holding his boy the interview.

00:13:40
Speaker 3: And then I thought this was cool. He wanted the team wanted to pour stuff on him. He's like, hey, guys, sorry, gotta go, gotta go. He looks at ESP and National and says, I gotta go. I gotta mow the grass.

00:13:52
Speaker 2: I don't want to get your headset dallast and gatorade.

00:13:55
Speaker 4: I gotta grass to mo here. Come on.

00:13:58
Speaker 5: So now that they're in the artist bracket, did you see there they're with the U C L A L.

00:14:04
Speaker 4: S U and Arkans. Yeah, they gotten the worst brack.

00:14:07
Speaker 5: But you know what, let's go Racers, believe in them. Let's go the grassmowers, the grassmowers, u c l A, Murray State.

00:14:17
Speaker 4: Do you how many people that play for UCLA even knew where Murray State was.

00:14:21
Speaker 5: It's awesome. John Moran says he's going to the game that's pulling up to Omaha.

00:14:26
Speaker 2: That's awesome, about to find out.

00:14:28
Speaker 5: They're about to find out.

00:14:29
Speaker 4: That's right.

00:14:30
Speaker 2: I'm scared about it.

00:14:31
Speaker 3: They're about to get dog piled with the oatmeal in the face. Eight five nine twenty two eighty seven. Text machine is seven seven two seven seven four five two five four.

00:14:40
Speaker 5: We'll take a break talk VNCE toalk Murray.

00:14:43
Speaker 3: College Basketball has made some big rules changes that I'm in favor of. We'll go through that and Moore's Kentucky Sports Radio. Yeah, Skirka and I have chemistry. That's why we need to make I just realized why he wanted me to have the other kid on.

00:14:54
Speaker 5: He played baseball. Ryan played baseball with his dad.

00:14:57
Speaker 4: Yeah, his dad's a Kentucky Wesley kid.

00:15:00
Speaker 3: To head two home runs with from Madisonville, and they gave a shout out to Madisonville in sports sent loved it. If Drew hadn't taken this six week vacation, we would have been able to talk about it with him.

00:15:09
Speaker 4: Drew would be bouncing off the walls up a Madisonville.

00:15:12
Speaker 5: I'm sports in and it wasn't even Michael Eaves is from Madisonville.

00:15:15
Speaker 4: Was right. I didn't think about that. Michael's from Madisonville.

00:15:18
Speaker 5: So so that was that.

00:15:20
Speaker 4: That's cool.

00:15:20
Speaker 5: Apparently he doesn't mow the grass.

00:15:23
Speaker 4: I wouldn't. I wouldn't be surprised. Our coach used to mow the graun outfield grass. Yeah, but it is twoenty twenty five. It's true. I mean like you played back when each college had like thirty p each baskets for basketball. Yeah.

00:15:36
Speaker 3: So you know, Shannon, I was telling you, I've been been doing this like steps, Like I'm all into the steps.

00:15:42
Speaker 2: How many steps are you getting in a day?

00:15:43
Speaker 5: On a I'm averaging I'm averaging about ninety five hundred a day.

00:15:47
Speaker 4: That's pretty good.

00:15:47
Speaker 2: Wed go another five hundred, making an even ten times.

00:15:49
Speaker 3: I'd like to, But the problem is I do it with my phone. So like if I don't have my phone, it doesn't count. And I tend to leave my phone sometimes on the table, Like I think I'm going ahead in my mind saying I get the other five hundred just around the house, you know what I mean.

00:16:02
Speaker 5: Like when I'm walking around the house.

00:16:03
Speaker 2: I feel like I get you a fitbit.

00:16:05
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't want that thing on my wrist and all that. And by the way, I don't buy it. I don't buy it. There's no way my phone knows no how's it? No, No, it's it can't know how's it know how many steps?

00:16:15
Speaker 4: Kind of stimilar I don't know. How does it know how fast you're driving when you're in the car.

00:16:20
Speaker 3: Well, I mean it does that by GPS, which but steps. The reason I'm saying that is how does it know how tall?

00:16:26
Speaker 4: I am?

00:16:27
Speaker 3: Like, it would take me fewer steps to walk somewhere than it would take you.

00:16:30
Speaker 4: Yeah, you're a fast walker. He's got a large game. Haw's it no speed and all that?

00:16:34
Speaker 3: Like I can see, yes, it could do miles because it has a GPS, but it doesn't know how many steps I have. So but nevertheless, I still, even though I don't.

00:16:45
Speaker 2: I think you could just shake your phone and it would count for steps, you know, if I just did this?

00:16:49
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe. I mean, jurors tell that story. When he had the thing on his wrist, he would just throw it in the dryer. He had a competition with his friends who could get the most steps, and he just threw his in the dryer night spoiler alert. I don't know if his friends know that. That's why I Drew.

00:17:03
Speaker 4: I Drew won the contest. The other day, he said, you walked thirteen miles.

00:17:08
Speaker 5: That was twenty four thousand, five hundred steps.

00:17:11
Speaker 4: It's a lot. It was a lot. Help sore.

00:17:13
Speaker 3: Forget me on my average a little bit shit. Yeah, you know, then then you then you could have some some days, all right. Jerry's on the phone, Jerry, I was disappointed in you yesterday.

00:17:22
Speaker 5: I'm not gonna lie. You were like.

00:17:24
Speaker 4: Milk for Louisville one see four.

00:17:27
Speaker 5: I was very disappointed.

00:17:29
Speaker 8: Okay.

00:17:30
Speaker 9: First off, go racers that I asked you, I want to I want to revise Extimi March. What I only had thirty seconds, Matt. What I was trying to say is okay, well, okay, I hate still hate Louisville. I would hate Evince left for Louisville. But because of a lot of things that are going on, I can see why. Now I'm not saying I like it. I'm not saying it's because I.

00:18:01
Speaker 5: Really think, Jerry, why did he have to go to Louisville. You can see why he would leave. Why does he have to go to Louisville.

00:18:11
Speaker 9: I'm not saying he has to go to Louisll, but I can see he's close to Brahm. You said, you know his wife has roots here. He can still live lesson from driving through to Ruisll.

00:18:22
Speaker 4: Know what I'm saying.

00:18:25
Speaker 9: What I'm saying is I can understand it. And this is why my my big overall concern is this thing with the house money. It's Kentucky football, and I understand why.

00:18:37
Speaker 5: I understand they too. That's a different topics.

00:18:42
Speaker 9: It's Kentucky football is not going to have the resources of other SEC teams. I mean, I could see stops leaving if you win six or seven games over.

00:18:50
Speaker 3: That and everybody, I don't want to get into all that. I agree with you, that's in the I agree with you. That's important, but that's not this. And he did not leave because of the house.

00:19:02
Speaker 4: Settlement, all right. I love Vince.

00:19:07
Speaker 3: Vince wasn't up reading that seventy seven page Opinion Shannon on Friday. No, I'm pretty confident about that now, Okay, So that's not why he left. He left, I think for the reasons we've talked about the power thing and what about Did you see the conversation between he and Nick Rousse?

00:19:25
Speaker 4: Yes?

00:19:25
Speaker 2: I did, yeah, because Nick tweeted out.

00:19:29
Speaker 3: So Nick Rouse tweeted out a story that's on KSR, and here was the headline, Vince Marrow lost power in the Kentucky football recruiting room. Why we're taking a closer rook look at his recruiting resume and quantity was not always greater than quality. So that seems like potentially I haven't even read the article, but like potentially a stir in the pot Rauh oh, yes, Vince replies to him and says, lol, I'll be speaking soon on this. And if you want to see angry Kentucky fans, look in his replies to Vino, vinces, oh.

00:20:07
Speaker 2: We already have. It's amazing how quickly people can turn. Of course, you know he turned. He turned first though, he did too.

00:20:14
Speaker 4: Yeah.

00:20:14
Speaker 3: I think some of the most by the way, the Louisville people are flipping to oh sure, like Mike Rutherford who I I like. I think Mike's one of the smartest people that covers college sports. But Mike Rutherford has been doing the grown man g r O A N laughing at you know, because that's how Vince spelled spells grown a lot on on Twitter. He's been laughing at that for years and now they're all in.

00:20:40
Speaker 4: Well, of course he's on their side. Now we all do this. I understand that. I think some of the most interesting stuff you talked about yesterday, as far as Vince and the power at UK, when you said they took Ohio away from him and Eddie Graham became more in control of the transfer roster. I think those two things combined. If that's legit, I think that speaks.

00:21:02
Speaker 3: I think that was probably a huge thing. One person rites Matt Telshan and if he goes to just the cutler, I will drive by him at Duck Donuts and flip him off too.

00:21:15
Speaker 2: As you should he would. You don't have to worry about.

00:21:20
Speaker 5: That, Louisville fans.

00:21:22
Speaker 3: By the way, I've also gotten on the you know that Mario posts the clip of me talking about it, yes and I said something like, hey, Vince, you can go you know it shows the difference in the programs. You're listening to this show text and in you're not gonna do that there, and all these people are like he acts like Louisville doesn't have radio shows. Well they have them. They actually have more UK shows than we do. But it's because none of them are listened to. That's it's a quantity. It's Nick Rouse's story. It's quantity over I don't want to say quality. I think some of them are fine, but they don't get listened to. The reason this one is what it is is Louisville does not support one. And so there's like ten trying to get it, but they don't really support any of them. Dean, you know, Dean's probably the biggest. And even that like you don't hear about it.

00:22:10
Speaker 4: You know, we both said that Vince should go on the Louisville radio show yesterday today going like six. But now if there was an official word, I guess he can't really go on a show yet. I don't know. Do you think Barry State has any chance of doing something? I never thought they could win at ole Miss. I didn't think they can win one Duke.

00:22:29
Speaker 2: Yes, they put on ole Miss nineteen on Duke. This team can score a lot of runs and plays a.

00:22:36
Speaker 3: Chance UCLA and then either LSU or Arkansas. So they're going to play playing two powerhouse teams.

00:22:43
Speaker 4: Yeah, the draw kind of sucks for him.

00:22:44
Speaker 5: So you think they can get one, They.

00:22:46
Speaker 4: Can get one? Why not? Why not? Why not?

00:22:50
Speaker 3: Madisonville, Kentucky, Marshall County. Yeah, Oatmeal, we'll take your calls. Ask anything. Wednesday, kry TJ.

00:22:58
Speaker 4: Smith, personal injury attorney called TJ.

00:23:00
Speaker 2: He'll make them pay now. More of Kentucky Sports Radio presented by Stockton Mortgage. Here's Matt Jones.

00:23:06
Speaker 5: Welcome back Tukey Sports Radio.

00:23:08
Speaker 3: If I'm nine two eight oh, twenty two eighty seven, there's people on I'm gonna go to them right here, by the way, somebody sent me. Vince's contract called for him to be paid from July first.

00:23:21
Speaker 4: To June thirtieth. So maybe that's what it is.

00:23:24
Speaker 3: Shitn you want to get the last check, right because the last check would go out on probably Friday.

00:23:31
Speaker 4: Why wouldn't you want to do that?

00:23:33
Speaker 3: Maybe that's what it Maybe that simple again, everybody's just human beings, right, Like you're gonna you want to get a last check before you do the.

00:23:40
Speaker 4: You do you believe that they had really got nothing to do about money, like his contract at Loisville will be used.

00:23:45
Speaker 5: I don't want that.

00:23:46
Speaker 4: I don't know.

00:23:47
Speaker 3: And again, I mean, like I know that UK says they weren't informed. I mean I wasn't there, so like, I don't know. I know they were surprised. I know the donors were surprised. So oh, you know. Ultimately, it does not gonna matter. He's the coach there, good luck. I mean, he might be listening. It ain't as good there.

00:24:11
Speaker 5: Have fun.

00:24:11
Speaker 3: You may you're probably gonna win more games next year, but I know what he enjoys, and it won't be as fun here. You're not the toast of the town. He'll go out in Louiell nobody's not gonna know who he is. In Lexington, you're one of the two most famous people in the city.

00:24:26
Speaker 4: Walks into cast Bar and he gets a standing ovation every time.

00:24:29
Speaker 3: There's a whole part of Louisville that doesn't even care about sports. I live there, Shannon, right, Like that part of town, he could walk there, There's not one person there who would know who he is. Like that significant amount of the city of Louisville does not even care about Louisville athletics.

00:24:46
Speaker 4: They have no idea.

00:24:49
Speaker 5: It's a different.

00:24:50
Speaker 4: Place, and here everybody knows who If.

00:24:52
Speaker 3: You're Jeff Brohm can walk out in parts of Louisville and people don't know who he is.

00:24:57
Speaker 8: Not.

00:24:57
Speaker 3: I mean, he's a little different. He's from there, So maybe that's not true. But you know, Steve Cragthorpe certainly could.

00:25:03
Speaker 4: Yes, right, Kelsey probably even good.

00:25:06
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that you got to be a larger than life personality events to some extent is but it's not the It's just not the same in Louisville. It's a different city than Lexington, where our whole community revolves around this university enterprise. Danny, let's give her boy thirty second ship because we got a lot of people.

00:25:25
Speaker 6: Danny, go ahead, Hey it's it's Danny.

00:25:31
Speaker 2: You're talking to me, said Danny.

00:25:33
Speaker 5: Why I said Danny.

00:25:35
Speaker 6: I thought you said Denny. Sorry, Hey, morning, guys, how you doing? I have I have two questions. I asked these questions as someone that currently has a partially eaten Weeda bix box in my pantry. That's my inspiration. So my questions are what would you set the over under on percentage of weed a bix eaten versus purchase during the tournament? And should we send our.

00:25:57
Speaker 5: All you got the first I like the first question.

00:26:01
Speaker 4: Ten. It's awful. It's not good, but it's better than I thought it was gonna be when we tried it. Well, we tried it on one of our show. No, I didn't get a box. If I got in the box, it would be wouldn't be completely.

00:26:12
Speaker 3: I wouldst say twenty percent or less because I don't think it's Good'll no it, Shannon, don't you.

00:26:16
Speaker 2: I haven't tried it.

00:26:17
Speaker 5: You know.

00:26:18
Speaker 2: The only opportunity I had to try it was out of Drew Franklin's pocket. I wasn't eating pocket Weeda bis So, No, I have not had it yet.

00:26:25
Speaker 3: Yeah, put you have to load it with sugar. Weeda Bicks should have done that back in February.

00:26:30
Speaker 4: Oh, no doubt.

00:26:31
Speaker 3: If they had done it in February, and you'd have had the whole month there to do if they would have sold a lot of it.

00:26:37
Speaker 4: Here totally dropped the ball for marketing, because when is ever Weedi BIG's gonna get that kind of publicity.

00:26:42
Speaker 3: Ever, never except now. But it's not good, not good, I'll tell you, but you know, maybe it's better the second try. Well, Like, here's a transition the TV show Shannon Tires. You know that show with Shane Gillis.

00:26:54
Speaker 2: Heard of it but never seen it on Netflix?

00:26:56
Speaker 3: Love Shane Gillis, Yeah, become one of my favorite comedians. Season one on the Tires awful. I was so disappointed. I was like, I like you so much, this show is not good. Season two, My buddy the Turkey Hunter was like, it's good, much much better, really much better, like a different show. Reminds me of Parks and rec and even thirty Rock season one. Eh, and then they find the groove in season two. Successions kind of like that too. So it's okay in season one, but then it really finds its groove in season two.

00:27:31
Speaker 5: So big shout out Tires season two.

00:27:33
Speaker 4: Yeah. Usually it's the other way around.

00:27:35
Speaker 5: Usually it is the other way around. Like there are some shows that season one is awesome and then it gets awful.

00:27:39
Speaker 2: Yeah Home Usually they run out of ideas by season two or three.

00:27:43
Speaker 3: Homeland, season one's great and it gets progressively awful.

00:27:48
Speaker 4: Did you ever get through Righteous Jim Stones?

00:27:51
Speaker 5: Yeah, and it gets a little worse, but I still like it.

00:27:53
Speaker 4: Yeah, you is an example of that.

00:27:56
Speaker 3: One you really good in season one, decent in season two, then gets worse every game not game, excuse me? Yeah, the one House of Cards that Kevin space is. Yeah, first season great, gets progressively a little worse as it goes along. But sometimes a show is not great and then it gets better. Parks and rec Uh. The Office, I think is like that. The Office is a couple of good episodes in the first season, but I think it really takes off in the second one thirty rock and now I would put tires.

00:28:24
Speaker 2: Like that, did you finish you? The last?

00:28:26
Speaker 4: I can't just game, I can't.

00:28:27
Speaker 5: I couldn't get through the season before this good?

00:28:30
Speaker 4: Is it better?

00:28:31
Speaker 5: The one that was what was four in London?

00:28:33
Speaker 2: Skip? Yeah, Skip that one. I couldn't watch the one that was all I could.

00:28:37
Speaker 3: I couldn't watch it. It just completely off. I liked, I liked one, I liked too, Three was okay.

00:28:43
Speaker 4: Four I was terrible. Logan, go ahead, logan.

00:28:48
Speaker 10: I hope you guys are doing well. I went to Murray when Skorko was coming in, and I can vouch that we do have a ground team that most okay, but we do have lawn mower there. Secondly, I've seen a lot of Louisville fans compare what's going to happen to Kentucky football to what happened to their basketball team. What would it take for our football program to be as low as their basketball program?

00:29:12
Speaker 8: What?

00:29:12
Speaker 5: Thanks, guys, Uh, It's impossible. No, here's why it's impossible because we have no expectations for UK football. Louisville basketball is the sixth or seventh best program in the history. It's fo Yeah, and they won six games. That's one of the most dramatic falls of all time, it is. Can you see Duke ever winning six games? No, Kentucky. No, We've only had two losing seasons in our history.

00:29:40
Speaker 2: You're giving them too much credit. They only won four one game, but one season.

00:29:44
Speaker 4: Coming they win the next year I think it was he won four and eight twelve, that's right.

00:29:51
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, so he went four.

00:29:53
Speaker 3: So can you see Duke winning four? North Carolina winning four? Kansas winning four? I mean, think about it, how terrible Indiana's been? Did they ever only win four?

00:30:04
Speaker 4: Now?

00:30:04
Speaker 2: No?

00:30:05
Speaker 4: Four is awful? Awful.

00:30:07
Speaker 5: There's nothing Kentucky foot we would have to go negative five in seventeen, Like.

00:30:13
Speaker 4: You can't, Kentucky football.

00:30:14
Speaker 3: We don't have the expectations their basketball program does. So to be the sixth or seventh best, seventh best historical basketball program in history and win four games, that's.

00:30:24
Speaker 5: As bad as it'll get.

00:30:25
Speaker 4: No one will.

00:30:25
Speaker 5: Ever do that bad, right, not a power program. We were on probation and went what five hundred? Yes we did? You know?

00:30:35
Speaker 3: So No, I mean, that's the worst season a major program has ever had maybe in any sport ever, name one worse. Name me a top ten program in any sport that's had a worse year than four and twenty seven.

00:30:47
Speaker 4: Probably not gonna be one out there.

00:30:48
Speaker 5: You're not gonna find one.

00:30:49
Speaker 3: So that was the worst season in top ten program history for anything. So no, there's nothing we could do that would be that bad. Bruce, go ahead, Bruce.

00:31:00
Speaker 8: Hey, guys, how about the Texas A and M effect on this Marrow deal where I don't think some of the major donors of U of L may be like we don't want them and are upset, And that's that's why it hasn't been announced because they're really there were scuttle but there you know, the decision final decision hasn't been made because some of these donors are saying, you hire them, we're not paying for just just the thought.

00:31:28
Speaker 4: Yeah, it would be interesting. I appreciate the call.

00:31:30
Speaker 3: I think, you know, I've heard small rumblings that there are people not happy at Louisville, but there I think Louisville fans in general like to kind of stick it in Kentucky fans eyes. So I think they still ultimately would would want him. I don't know what he's gonna cost, though, I mean, I don't know what they're paying him.

00:31:46
Speaker 4: So if you're a booster for UK football, how could you not want Vince?

00:31:50
Speaker 5: Now he's saying the U of L football boosters.

00:31:53
Speaker 4: Yeah, how can you not want Vin? Vince? Well, yeah, if I'm a un l uf L booster, I want Vince Marrick.

00:32:00
Speaker 5: There are some that think, well, we don't need him, like we're already doing.

00:32:02
Speaker 4: Well they have it. Did they not see what he's done as a recruiter?

00:32:06
Speaker 3: Yeah, but to be fair, Louisvill's outrecruited us in the last two years. Fair well, I mean that's that's what they would say. I think they I think they need him. Vince will Vince will help them. Vince will, Yes, he will. I mean Louisville has been a non factor in in state recruiting for eight or ten years.

00:32:24
Speaker 4: That will change. Now. The fact that they've got six of the top ten kids in Kentucky already, that can't be a coincidence. And then all of a sudden Vince going to Louisville.

00:32:36
Speaker 3: Well but okay, but you could use that the other way and go they got six of the top ten kids and he's not even there.

00:32:41
Speaker 4: I'm thinking they've already told these kids he's coming.

00:32:43
Speaker 3: You think he's been recruiting for little Maybe that's a strong allegation.

00:32:47
Speaker 2: Yeah, especially I want to say that.

00:32:52
Speaker 4: I mean strong allegation. We're just spitballing stuff right now.

00:32:57
Speaker 5: Hang on just saying to just spitball You're on the radio and I'm calling that.

00:33:03
Speaker 4: I don't probably believe it happened. Why did you say it? You gotta kind of throw it out there for conspiracy theorists.

00:33:09
Speaker 2: But this is why we need these coaches to get on here and to spell these things, because if if they don't, things like that come up.

00:33:16
Speaker 3: The void, yes, is always going to be filled with nonsense like Ryan.

00:33:21
Speaker 5: Living Yeah, that's find out that the individuals need to talk, because the Ryan Lemons.

00:33:28
Speaker 4: Of the world will do the talking. We'll do the talk.

00:33:32
Speaker 3: Most people hear the word remodel and they think of stress contractors that ghost you, prices that change halfway, and results it don't look anything like you had in mine. That's exactly why people call a state renovations. They do it differently. You get a full team, a designer who studies your what you want, a project manager who keep things running smoothly, and if you're not ready for a full remodel, they'll do very specific things a room of flooring, trim or fixtures. Remember mentioned KSR, and you get half off your DESI on agreement half off a State Renos r E n O S for like renovation a State renos dot com. We'll take a break more of your ask anything. Wednesday calls and then I gotta asked Ryan about something I've been hearing that hasn't affected me, but the city seems to be complaining about.

00:34:17
Speaker 4: We'll be right back.

00:34:20
Speaker 3: Seinfeld is one too, Shannon that like got better first season.

00:34:24
Speaker 5: Seinfeld's not great. He even has different parents.

00:34:28
Speaker 3: Really, yeah, Seinfeld's parents are different in season one than they are in season two.

00:34:34
Speaker 5: They just replaced his parents and hope nobody would care, And they did.

00:34:37
Speaker 2: I guess I didn't realize the other shows too, Like.

00:34:40
Speaker 3: They've done that. They've placed a kid in a show once. I think family matters.

00:34:45
Speaker 2: The kid never replaced Harriet the address.

00:34:47
Speaker 5: Yeah they have placed Harriet.

00:34:48
Speaker 4: Yeah where the daughters on Roseanne got replaced in the middle of their series.

00:34:53
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's got to be a tough blow. And they're like you, We're just not gonna use you anymore the middle, John Seinfeld, the dad or mom, I'd have died, which is why I think I could be wrong about that. But then they just act like it's a new person.

00:35:07
Speaker 9: Huh.

00:35:08
Speaker 5: Didn't even on side Field. They didn't even.

00:35:09
Speaker 4: Address it was a different person. It's like, well, he has different parents now.

00:35:14
Speaker 2: Didn't they do that with the Dukes of Hazard? Didn't they replace?

00:35:17
Speaker 3: They try to do both of them, but it didn't work. They what they called it at least knowledge that they were like their cousins. They didn't say. They didn't try to act like they were the exact.

00:35:25
Speaker 2: Same they were their cousins or something.

00:35:29
Speaker 3: So Yeah, Seinfeld's a good one about a show that was not good in the first season, but then got The person said, I'd love to hear Ryan just spitball his conspiracy theories.

00:35:40
Speaker 5: Yeah, that would get us off the air. You can't just say they can't just say he was recruiting.

00:35:43
Speaker 4: You have no basis for that, completely, no basis. It's just you know, if you're on the outside looking in. Kentucky's only got two recruits, Louis's got six outside looking in, people think, you know thing. Oh no, I'm just spitballing.

00:35:55
Speaker 3: Okay, it's just spitball I keep seeing on on the TikTok people going crazy, going, I'm so tired of the cicadas in Lexington.

00:36:04
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't hear any cicadas. Well they're all on the south side. Where are they like south side? Like from uh, but I don't have any next to me? Is it?

00:36:15
Speaker 5: So are they literally just in that part of town?

00:36:18
Speaker 4: Yeah? Like here, I live in Mattress and Station area. None. But then you go on the south side, So.

00:36:23
Speaker 5: Where are we talking about? Where can I go and see what's what's annoying? The Beaumont, Palomar, Hartford so out there it's bad.

00:36:31
Speaker 4: Yeah, because I don't hear any. I don't hear any none.

00:36:35
Speaker 5: Okay, So it is a part of town, yeah, because people are like losing their minds about the cicadas.

00:36:40
Speaker 2: They haven't terrorists, are They just terrorize you. They'll like fly right at your forehead and yeah, like.

00:36:47
Speaker 3: Horrible.

00:36:48
Speaker 4: Yeah.

00:36:49
Speaker 5: See in the Highlands, I don't think we have them.

00:36:51
Speaker 4: I didn't, I haven't.

00:36:52
Speaker 2: Those people are probably eating them.

00:36:54
Speaker 5: That savages, okay, like you can't eat them. Yeah, well, I know in the two places where I live, I don't hear.

00:37:03
Speaker 4: It is weird how they just kind of land in certain pockets.

00:37:07
Speaker 5: But people are acting like it's the worst thing that's ever had.

00:37:10
Speaker 4: Yeah, a keen Trace golf club. Yesterday I got nailed by one of them round.

00:37:14
Speaker 5: Also, they only came out like every seventeen years.

00:37:17
Speaker 4: It is something weird like that.

00:37:18
Speaker 5: So why are they out right now?

00:37:19
Speaker 4: Is this one?

00:37:21
Speaker 2: It's tom Okay, now, somebody woke them up.

00:37:24
Speaker 4: Well you've seen the pictures where like people walk across the yard. It just crunch crunch, crunches, walking on the dead carcasson.

00:37:30
Speaker 3: It's so weird that a part of town would have them, and like there would be none where you and I agreed.

00:37:35
Speaker 5: That seems strange.

00:37:36
Speaker 4: It seems very strange.

00:37:37
Speaker 3: Yeah, but but it is like all some people talk about our cicadas.

00:37:42
Speaker 5: Yeah, you go out there.

00:37:43
Speaker 2: Like well, they just land on you and they just sit there and look at you with their red eyes. They can't bite you, it can't.

00:37:48
Speaker 5: Hurt do anything to me because I'm I think they're scared of me.

00:37:50
Speaker 4: I think. So they make them, you know, the kind of that screechy noise all the time.

00:37:54
Speaker 5: They're awful.

00:37:54
Speaker 3: When I lived in DC, it was like the every twenty years time, huh, and it was just horrendo.

00:38:00
Speaker 5: So I remember what they're like. But I just haven't heard him here. Andrew, go ahead, Andrew, what's up?

00:38:07
Speaker 8: Guys? Just a question for everyone, if y'all can have a one hour day with any athlete, dead or alive, who would be in wild Thanks.

00:38:17
Speaker 4: Dead or alive. Ali, it's a great one.

00:38:22
Speaker 5: Just all I mean, just his life story and how in the world did you become friends with Captain Sontan No, I mean that's I'm kidding, but like his life story is amazing and all the things he went through and all that, So it's probably dead or alive.

00:38:37
Speaker 4: Muhammad Ali, great choice. Were alive. I'd probably picked I thought you were gonna say, stay musual or something. And the Cardinals guy, Yeah, Lou Brock was my hero. But a Larry Bird. I've never even met Larry Bird. He grew up thirty minutes fromhere. I grew up.

00:38:50
Speaker 5: It's like you could do that.

00:38:51
Speaker 4: I still never met him, not even It.

00:38:53
Speaker 5: Doesn't seem to be like all that interesting though.

00:38:57
Speaker 4: No, but I could talk to him and kind of relate to him back.

00:38:59
Speaker 5: And you could relate.

00:39:00
Speaker 4: Yeah, you think you and he would be Yeah, yeah, there's more.

00:39:04
Speaker 5: For him than you.

00:39:05
Speaker 9: Sure.

00:39:05
Speaker 4: Probably my dad was coaching showals and coached against Larry Bird.

00:39:11
Speaker 5: He probably remember that change, don't you know?

00:39:13
Speaker 8: Yeah?

00:39:13
Speaker 4: I remember held Larry Bird do a cool thirty two points Amber.

00:39:17
Speaker 5: Who ad youars be?

00:39:18
Speaker 2: Oh, I don't know. Mike, Mike Tyson would be fun.

00:39:23
Speaker 5: If you could pay forty nine and make that happen.

00:39:26
Speaker 2: Well, I would pay it right now. If we can make that happen. Rick Flair, like you probably just going to anything.

00:39:32

Speaker 3: People people will move on quickly, you know what I mean, like they'll it'll be what it'll be. One person here writes on the text machine, Matt, I don't know how you can say you have no football expectations. That's crazy to me. Again, we've talked about this a lot of years. I think it's an age thing. I think younger people who grew up not knowing that we always stunk, have a different set of expectations than I do.

I mean I went thirty five years where we had one season that was good, which was The Couch here, right, and then Andre Woodson here we had like two seasons that were good. Yeah, So it's just an expectation thing. I'm not saying other people are wrong. It's just what you became used to. Life's about expectations in pretty much everything. Well, come back our number two to ask anything Wednesday, kosr
