Speaker 3: Welcome to our two case Tucky Sports Radio present it by Stockton Mortgage. Now Here's Matt Jones welcome back.

00:01:05
Speaker 4: I remember two Tucky sports Radio eightf I'm nine two eight oh twenty two eighty seven, text machine seven seventy two, see four five two five four. Kurt Signetti, by the way, sixty four years old, so we said six years older than Stoops. But the fact that I thought he was young.

00:01:18
Speaker 2: I thought he was young.

00:01:20
Speaker 5: But that also says to me he's doing it.

00:01:21
Speaker 4: So I mean, maybe the fair way to put it is, it's not age is mentality and their armor new head coaches.

00:01:27
Speaker 5: He has a new newer head.

00:01:29
Speaker 4: But like maybe the way to put it is, it's not so much what your physical age is are you coaching? Is your mindset to the new way of doing college football. I would have a rule if I was an ad if I was considering hiring a coach and I heard them one time in public in a press conference bitch about the transfer portal and n anil, I wouldn't hire him.

00:01:51
Speaker 5: You're not locked in. I wouldn't hire him.

00:01:54
Speaker 4: If you're complaining about a system that is not changing, get a DAPT, then I'm not hiring yep. If you're sitting there hoping that the Supreme Court after they had a nine to zero opinion is gonna flip, then I'm not hiring you.

00:02:10
Speaker 5: This isn't for you anymore. It's just not now.

00:02:14
Speaker 4: If you want to say I wish it was this and hopefully it'll change, that's different. But if you get there and go, you know, all right now, Like Mike Gundhy should be a perfect example. He's complaining. He's complaining. He could put Dabbo. Would you hire Dabo right now? No?

00:02:28
Speaker 5: No way, no way.

00:02:31
Speaker 6: It's like that at any job. Imagine Heck, you work for iHeart and you come in your interview, You're like, oh, I really don't like being around radio from ten to twelve, but I would love to work here.

00:02:39
Speaker 4: It'd be like working at a radio station ten years ago, as Shannon and I used to have and listening to people complaining about podcast.

00:02:46
Speaker 5: Get rid of that person, Yeah.

00:02:48
Speaker 7: Well that was our boss.

00:02:49
Speaker 2: That would got that was our boss.

00:02:52
Speaker 4: And I would say, will you put this on podcasts?

00:02:54
Speaker 5: And they're like, no, podcast is ruined the radio.

00:02:56
Speaker 4: And I was like, well, we'll be here longer than you because podcast is not going anywhere.

00:03:00
Speaker 2: That's one thing I think that made Cali Perry so successful. He was always a little head of the curve.

00:03:04
Speaker 5: But now he's not.

00:03:05
Speaker 4: Now he's not. But it was now he's not he used to be. He used to be. But then that was a change he was comfortable with. Then came changes he wasn't you remember what cal said when they first started in al we don't need to.

00:03:18
Speaker 5: Do that here.

00:03:19
Speaker 2: I'll that tr he did, Yeah, he did, remember when he.

00:03:21
Speaker 4: Said that, and we were like, yeah, he's right, it's Kentucky, we don't need to do that here. Well, you know what that was? That was the canary in the coal mine that's in Eh. Maybe he's not adapt for and maybe he's not adept at this. And even after that, he didn't think he needed anyone's help. I got this, don't need anyone else. I don't remember when somebody asked about hiring a GM and he was like, oh, we don't need that.

00:03:42
Speaker 5: I got it.

00:03:43
Speaker 4: Well, so I wouldn't hire anybody that was like that. Now, before I get back the phones, I'm nine two eighty seven. We got to talk about Kirby Smart.

00:03:54
Speaker 5: What a liar?

00:03:56
Speaker 4: You know what, I'll tell you what. What what gets my gets in my crawl are coaches and even human beings that get up all the time in your face and preach to you about how you should act, and really especially if they take on the mantle of God. Dabbo's the worst of this, you know, name image and likeness of the Lord. And then they're out there. That's why, like tell Evangelist and those people driving me crazy because they you know, they tell you how you're supposed to live, and the next thing you know, they're going.

00:04:35
Speaker 5: Oh, who swim against you, my Lord? Like, I hate that.

00:04:39
Speaker 4: Kirby Smart's not exactly that, but there's definitely a holier than now to Kirby Smart, would you agree with that?

00:04:46
Speaker 5: Certainly?

00:04:47
Speaker 2: Now that timeout thing is not just one of my most favorite events that happened this season, it's one of my most favorite events in sports in a long time.

00:04:53
Speaker 4: See, I hate it because he's a liar.

00:04:55
Speaker 2: That's what. That's what to make him as absolute liar.

00:04:58
Speaker 4: The videos have been and then he tried to take up for it at the end. You know, Shannon, he runs out there, we are not stupid. We see you calling time out and he's mouting it. You are saying time out, time out, time out, he tried to say, and they give him the time out and he goes I didn't want to time out. I was clapping.

00:05:18
Speaker 2: I was clapping.

00:05:19
Speaker 3: Did he not think that there were cameras in the stadium that could see him? We could have instant replay if anybody in the stadium.

00:05:25
Speaker 4: He does natural personality trades to lie, they forget their line. I believe that they start to believe the lie themselves. I think in his mind he thought he wasn't.

00:05:38
Speaker 5: Calling time out.

00:05:40
Speaker 4: He in that millisecond he went from time out to clapping had convinced himself that actually he was clasping.

00:05:46
Speaker 3: I understand people who lie and then convinced themselves the lies true. But that's usually over like time, over maybe a year or two. This was seconds later.

00:05:53
Speaker 4: He knew exactly what he was doing.

00:05:55
Speaker 6: He got busted, such a victim, like, oh you see him want?

00:05:59
Speaker 2: Oh?

00:05:59
Speaker 5: I was just class I'm knocking my microphone.

00:06:07
Speaker 8: He's such a.

00:06:08
Speaker 4: Snotling to make Hugh Freeze look like the sympathetic character, yeah, Hugh Freeze.

00:06:18
Speaker 5: Who has quite a history himself.

00:06:20
Speaker 2: Came off as the more sympathetic person.

00:06:23
Speaker 6: It's big pr hit for Kirby here.

00:06:25
Speaker 2: Sean McDonough and Greg McElroy were fantastic and they were on They were fantastic.

00:06:31
Speaker 3: Get an unsportsman like conduct or delayed game or something.

00:06:35
Speaker 4: The n c a A or excuse me, the SEC should find him should you cannot blatantly lie like that.

00:06:41
Speaker 3: This is the new faking injury thing now coaches to go no time out.

00:06:47
Speaker 2: And then they replayed it like oh no.

00:06:49
Speaker 4: And then he claimed after the game he was like, well, I told him before the game that the Auburn guys clamp. Fine, maybe you did. Maybe the Auburn guys were cut, but you were calling time out. We he saw you.

00:07:01
Speaker 1: You were the referee, Yeah, towards the referee doing it.

00:07:05
Speaker 2: We saw you do it. What a liar.

00:07:09
Speaker 6: Let's not let the referee get off the hook either. How do you fall for that? Just because Kirby's yelling at you?

00:07:14
Speaker 4: I agree, But I have more sympathy for the reft than Kirby, because Kirby might have been like, well, maybe I thought you know, his back was to him.

00:07:22
Speaker 5: He screwed up. Yeah, you can't let him get.

00:07:24
Speaker 4: Away, babe, Kirby. No, oh yeah, and he thought he's shitting. He thought we weren't seeing him.

00:07:31
Speaker 7: Yeah, do you think we're all stupid?

00:07:33
Speaker 2: Kirby?

00:07:35
Speaker 4: So if I was Auburn fans, I'd be living. First of all, they get screwed at the call at the goal line, absolutely got screwed completely. How did they not give him a touchdown? He was across the plane?

00:07:43
Speaker 2: That puts Auburn up. What's seventeen? Nothing? I think at that point, and then they end up losing the game.

00:07:48
Speaker 9: Yeah.

00:07:48
Speaker 4: But even though in the long run it doesn't matter that timeout thing, I'll never trust another word Kirby smart. So if you can lie to me that blatantly, I love it to my faith.

00:07:59
Speaker 7: He's not that smart. He got busted, he did.

00:08:03
Speaker 6: I remember hearing about it before I saw the clip. I'm like, well, I gotta see what this is about. How close it was? Three seconds is all I need? That is so obvious. He's screaming time out, time out, And that's why I couldn't believe he got away with it.

00:08:15
Speaker 5: I can't believe he he got away with it either.

00:08:18
Speaker 4: Okay, so a couple of people during the break, do you think give a percentage chance that stoops? Is the coach? January first, So let's just lay your lay your cards on the table there. Ryan Lemon's scoop. You have had twenty twenty five, tough year for Scoop. This is how you redeem yourself. This is your chance to redeem your Lamar Wilkerson debacle and Yaxel and Yaxele.

00:08:45
Speaker 2: Still felt really good about both of those, really good.

00:08:50
Speaker 5: Here's your chance. What's your percentage?

00:08:52
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go ten? Ten?

00:08:55
Speaker 4: Wow, you only think there's a ten percent chance he's back?

00:08:59
Speaker 10: Yeah? Ten.

00:09:01
Speaker 2: I don't see how this team is gonna win maybe one more game?

00:09:04
Speaker 5: Ten ten.

00:09:07
Speaker 2: It's too toxic. I think it's just become too toxic. And I think we got some really bad losses coming. I'm on your ten.

00:09:14
Speaker 5: Ten. I thought you were gonna be the most optimistic all right, Uh, Drew, ten, I thought it before he said it. That was my answer.

00:09:22
Speaker 6: I just don't see how they're gonna win it. I just don't see where they're gonna win when they can't bring him back. If they don't win, Okay, sorry, what about you, Shannon.

00:09:31
Speaker 3: I was just gonna go like forty percent chance that he's back. I still think there's a chance they get to five wins and then you put the ball in Mitch Barnhardt's court and say fire me. So I think that's the scenario that plays out.

00:09:43
Speaker 4: So I was gonna say twenty five. I think the on the field thing, there's two scenarios, and I think the die will be cast Saturday. We're either gonna play real well Saturday, maybe win, maybe lose, but be competitive, at which point I do not think the team quits or gonna get blown out and then the whole thing's fall apart.

00:10:08
Speaker 2: That's kind of we saw that last year.

00:10:09
Speaker 5: They got no.

00:10:10
Speaker 4: I mean, there's a chance if we lose thirty five to three Saturday, the whole the wheels fall of. Yeah, and it's and it becomes it becomes just a compustible train wreck for the rest of the year.

00:10:21
Speaker 5: It happens earlier in the year than it did last year.

00:10:24
Speaker 4: Yeah, if we're competitive, I worry about Shannon's scenario. I do think there's a world where they beat Florida or beat Vandy and then beat Louisville and then they're five and seven.

00:10:41
Speaker 2: And the end of the year the winner Louisville, and then what do you do.

00:10:45
Speaker 5: I don't think you've watched this team play.

00:10:46
Speaker 4: For I understand, but but let's just say that happened.

00:10:50
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, you'd have to consider it I just I don't think there's a world.

00:10:54
Speaker 5: Do they go Pave gets hurt before we play Vandy?

00:10:57
Speaker 7: Wait, now, what are you doing?

00:10:59
Speaker 4: I don't want to get hurt, but I'm just saying that, you know, small things can happen. Mean, look at the Baltimore Ravens. They're a Super Bowl attender. Lamar gets hurt, they can't even score. You know, there are things that happen.

00:11:11
Speaker 6: But I would say if one of your wins is you beat Vandy because Pobby is hurt, that's not very comforting moving forward. It's like, well, we're just gonna rely on all the quarterbacks getting hurt.

00:11:18
Speaker 5: On the schedule. I'm not making the case that he should stay.

00:11:21
Speaker 4: I'm saying if it's five and seven, yeah, it's a different world.

00:11:27
Speaker 3: Let's say you beat Florida, beat Tennessee Tech, and beat Louisville or Vandy.

00:11:30
Speaker 4: Which let's just say you beat Florida, Tennessee Tech, and Louisvell and you're five and seven and you've got a thirty seven million dollars bio do within twenty days?

00:11:44
Speaker 5: And Mark Stoop says, I ain't leaving. What do you do?

00:11:51
Speaker 2: That is the worst scenario. I think for Barnhart because that is that's the number that he's got to make a tough decision. And you will have.

00:11:58
Speaker 4: Been at least one real good to get to five wins. I even say Drew four wins, you gotta let him go. But you beat you get to five wins, You've beaten two good teams.

00:12:09
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you've beat Louisville in our scenario at the last game of the year, all that good feeling and beaten.

00:12:13
Speaker 4: Lords or even you beat Florida and Vandy, and you go into the Louisville game with a chance to go to a bowl game.

00:12:18
Speaker 6: That was my preseason prediction. Actually, you know, I think that we're skipping over that Tennessee is about to beat them by fifty in one week.

00:12:27
Speaker 4: This first in the country. Let's just play the games. Though, what if we beat Texas. I don't think we will. Believe me, I'm not predicting it. I think we'll lose by fifteen to twenty. But what if we do What if the magic of Keenland's Saturday night arch comes in collapses, we get a pick six, It's the old miss game last year.

00:12:51
Speaker 2: The fan base I think jumps back on board for a moment. It just one game here, and I don't think that.

00:12:56
Speaker 5: I don't think that.

00:12:57
Speaker 6: I don't think people should be this way. I think there's a part of the fan base that would actually be mad that that happened. And I don't think that's being a true fan. You should never want your team to lose. But I think there are people that want this to be three and nine. So it's just clear and over with.

00:13:09
Speaker 4: I totally agree with you. I don't think that fans want it. I mean, I think you asked them, would you like to beat Texas? Answers, yeah, this course. But I don't think this is why five and seven is so bad.

00:13:23
Speaker 2: Yep.

00:13:24
Speaker 5: If you go five and seven and we poll the fan base, there's still gonna be nobody wanting back.

00:13:28
Speaker 2: Yeah. If you're Mitch Barnhart, though, you got to make somewhat a business decision at that point.

00:13:33
Speaker 4: But you also have to make a business decision in a year you're trying to raise a lot of money. You're thinking about building an entertainment district that if they had to buy out, that entertainment district disappears.

00:13:42
Speaker 5: So that's the thing.

00:13:43
Speaker 4: No, I mean, I think the entertainment trig might be a bad idea anyway, but it's like, do you want to build your entertainment district or do you want to get rid of Mark Stoops.

00:13:51
Speaker 6: I think even if you get to five, you're running out of an impressive five. Like if one of them is Tennessee, maybe, but if you beat Texas and then Florida, I don't even think that that impressive at this point because Florida. If you beat Florida a Florida team that no, if you beat Florida, their coach is getting fired on Monday. So I still think it's gonna be hard to get impressive wins. Now, Tennessee would be very impressive. We thought Texas would be. I'm saying that's what if you're gonna have five, you're gonna need something you can really point to.

00:14:17
Speaker 5: Jerry, go ahead, Jerry hey Man.

00:14:22
Speaker 11: In addition to Franklin. Of course, it got blown off, the blown out and Franklin got fired. Oregon State fired their coach over the weekend too.

00:14:30
Speaker 10: And here's here's.

00:14:31
Speaker 5: Powerful powerful for football. I consider, well, I.

00:14:35
Speaker 11: Don't know what they're I don't know what they're going to be next year. But the point is is that the portal and all this stuff has speed up this process, and everybody's talking about you know, well he might be Vandy and Louis wille and get the TV's job. This decision is going to be made before those games. This decison is going to be made by the Tennessee Tech game because if they wait till the end of the season to do this, all these teams you're talking about, they're gonna be announcing their new coaches Sunday and Monday.

00:15:00
Speaker 12: After the Lois.

00:15:01
Speaker 10: There's a lot you're gonna want that they may be gone, so you're gonna have to They're gonna have to know who they're gonna hire and announce the hire. If they're gonna replay studs, it's gonna be announced by that Monday after the little.

00:15:13
Speaker 5: Well it won't be the Monday, but I appreciate the call, but it'll be soon. You're right.

00:15:16
Speaker 4: I mean, the one of the reasons all these teams have let go of guys is so they can go talk to people. Yes, so you know Jerry's right, I mean, but I don't. I don't think there's any scenario that fire and during the season, do you I don't.

00:15:27
Speaker 2: But Jerry makes a good argument. All these other coaches out there, they're gonna be gobbled up by these other teams.

00:15:32
Speaker 5: But they won't even if you don't fire him.

00:15:34
Speaker 6: You need to be having these conversations about it.

00:15:36
Speaker 5: But bitch, Maartinhart's not gonna do.

00:15:38
Speaker 6: That about him then, I mean, well, if you think you're gonna make a hire, you can't just wait.

00:15:44
Speaker 4: You can't go talk about him behind his back. You can't be hiring is his replacement. If he's steal your coach, you'd have to tell him. I'm letting you go. I mean, even me, I would say, Mitch can't do that. You can't do that to a guy who's been here fifteen years. You can't go be talking to his replacements while he's still sitting there.

00:16:03
Speaker 5: I don't know. I think you have agent center who's going to be well, that might be different, but Mitch can't do it.

00:16:08
Speaker 6: Yeah, no, of course, I mean, Mitch can't make your home. We're so'll find out if we're doing that. I mean coaches talk, Oh, yes they do.

00:16:15
Speaker 5: We'll take a break. Very back, KISR. Welcome back.

00:16:20
Speaker 4: Take you sports Radio a fi IVEM nine to eighth, twenty two eighty seven. I can't believe there's people taking up for Kirby Smart and be like, oh, he was really just trying to stop. I mean I saw the timeout, Channing. People got to stop, like, you.

00:16:32
Speaker 3: Know, it's Georgia fans, right, I mean, is there anybody who just doesn't have a dog in the fight that's Let me.

00:16:37
Speaker 4: Ask you a question, Channing, you're a conspiracy guy. Yeah, did you see what happened with the crypto Friday? This feels like your kind of story.

00:16:43
Speaker 7: No, I haven't followed the crypto what happened?

00:16:45
Speaker 6: All?

00:16:45
Speaker 5: Right?

00:16:45
Speaker 4: So crypto lost like two billion dollars maybe I don't. I don't know what a massive amount of money in like twenty minutes. And unlike the regular financial market, the crypto market just disappears. We don't even know where it is, right, just gone. Crypto markets crashed. When Trump announces he's going to put tariffs on China, a person and again with crypto, you don't have to register your accounts. A person gets online thirty minutes before he announces it and shorts all these crypto things. Makes one hundred and ninety two million dollars when Trump announces it and then immediately sells all his positions makes one hundred and ninety two million dollars in thirty minutes. The assumption in the crypto world is somebody knew it was coming, absolutely did it, and then sold it. Of course, this is the problem with crypto, and this is the problem with our government getting involved in crypto. There are no laws all right, kitting else. So, I mean what he did is probably not even illegal. But do you think they should investigate Shannon how the part because he made one hundred and ninety two million dollars.

00:17:56
Speaker 3: Absolutely they should investigate it. I mean unless that guy has just immaculated timing and the best luck ever to be able to do that right before Trump made the announcement.

00:18:06
Speaker 5: And then sell it right aft.

00:18:07
Speaker 12: Yeah. Yeah.

00:18:08
Speaker 3: Whoever this person was absolutely had some sort of insider tip that announcement was coming and they knew what they were doing.

00:18:14
Speaker 5: What if you find out it was like a member of the administration.

00:18:18
Speaker 7: Prison I need.

00:18:23
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, we don't have any like, we have no laws in this stuff. It's ridiculous. That's why I don't like, people are going to lose like you in fifteen years if we don't do something with AI and crypto. Our society is going to collapse because we were arguing about stupid stuff. Yeah, that's my prediction. We're all sitting here arguing about who gets to swim against each other, and the entire system is going to crash because we don't have laws around the things that people are actually doing.

00:18:54
Speaker 6: Would you agree with that? I bought crypto on Friday, so I'll just sit quiet here. Well, that would hurt you. Then I'm a pretty big anytime you didn't buy I bought.

00:19:04
Speaker 2: The dip, Well you bought the dip.

00:19:06
Speaker 5: Okay.

00:19:06
Speaker 4: But I'm saying to you, but that doesn't bother me. I don't care if the market dips and then you decide yes about you and I'm saying, let me finish. He's happened three or four times. This happened with AI in China and video back in March. It dropped, It's up two hundred percent. The people who are doing That's what I'm saying.

00:19:30
Speaker 6: Our president says a message about China, the market crashes and it fixes itself in three days.

00:19:36
Speaker 5: Okay.

00:19:37
Speaker 2: Same with what.

00:19:38
Speaker 4: About one hundred and ninety two million dollar guy. That guy did something, in my opinion that should be illegal.

00:19:44
Speaker 5: I don't care.

00:19:45
Speaker 4: I agree with you. Stocks go up, damn whatever.

00:19:47
Speaker 5: I don't care.

00:19:47
Speaker 4: If people do that, that's that's that's capitalism. But people who know something's coming make money on it like that should be illegal.

00:19:55
Speaker 6: No, I agree, And it's happening all the time and illegal. Yeah, No, I completely agree, all right, Like I'm going nerd out like in Vidia, it's ai. It went down to like ninety dollars in March because Trump was free traded Scott, I'm fine with that. There are laws about that. With crypto there are no laws, na Vidio, there's a set of laws. I'm good with that.

00:20:13
Speaker 12: Now.

00:20:13
Speaker 6: I'm saying, they put out chaos, they sell it, crashes, and they get right back in. Whether it's political crypto stocks, You're missing my point.

00:20:23
Speaker 9: Eric, go ahead, Eric, Yes, sir, I was gonna say that big move Manus was awesome. In the line waiting to get the players signed. We were interviewed by la X sixteen. I was gonna say, Andrea yellowch can shoot just about as well as Trent Noa can not as good, and Trent no is way better, but he can shoot. That was my eye opener from him. And two things about your Barfinnity and Lizzie need raises. They have fantastic service, and please man get rid of your papers.

00:20:57
Speaker 4: They're gonna go away to use it all. I think they'll be gone after the Texas game. I think I think where we look, I think we'll be out of them after the Texas game. So for the Texas game, they'll be there more.

00:21:13
Speaker 5: Than you do.

00:21:13
Speaker 4: There by the way, and I'll tell Trinity and Lizzie you like him, but go ahead.

00:21:18
Speaker 9: Uh you were not kidding about your beef.

00:21:22
Speaker 13: That stuff is funhenomenal.

00:21:26
Speaker 9: Thank you very much, Yes, sir, thank.

00:21:30
Speaker 4: You appreciate You think Jovich plays, Yeah, definitely.

00:21:34
Speaker 6: I think there's a chance he's still a little behind now and we've kind of got to figure out how he's going to get his feet und him because he's unique circumstances. But I think he could be starting in February. Would not surprise me. But that also could be the big Z thing where he looks like a deer and just can't defend switching over coming play SEC basketball, but enough to still spot.

00:21:54
Speaker 4: Do you know, I don't think he started, having watched him play, but I do think he can get I mean, I think he could play more than z did, but he's not gonna start.

00:22:03
Speaker 2: In my opinion, he was the guy we had to pick our one kind of dark horse guy. I'm still on the yellowitch wagon.

00:22:10
Speaker 4: I just think there's a huge physical discrepancy from him and the other guys, Like if you just watch him when they're running up and down the court.

00:22:16
Speaker 5: But he can shoot, and I mean he's an awesome I mean like he's what our eleventh or twelfth I mean, what an amazing eleventh or twelfth guy to have.

00:22:25
Speaker 6: That's what's so exciting about this team. Let's say if he doesn't work out right away, Okay, we have others. It's not like you're all in and if he doesn't work there's no back up. It's thrown off everything you're doing. I'm not gonna say he's extra, but you know there are other options if he doesn't pan out.

00:22:37
Speaker 2: I think he is.

00:22:38
Speaker 4: He is extra, but like, what an extra bonus piece. I mean to have that as a bonus.

00:22:45
Speaker 2: He does the one thing you hope once he's four guy to do, just stand in the corner and bomb away.

00:22:49
Speaker 4: And with Jack Garrison bringing his little kid out, yeah that was cool, although the kid.

00:22:54
Speaker 2: Was scared to death. Scared to death. Wasn't thinking the kid was like, put me down, Daddy, get me out of here.

00:23:01
Speaker 4: It's still kind of a neat little moment though with yes, uh, but I bet are are kids ears more sensitive?

00:23:08
Speaker 5: Yeah, you gotta wear the big.

00:23:10
Speaker 2: Yeah, sensory overload kind of.

00:23:12
Speaker 4: But I mean, are they are they like dogs? The sound hits them out different.

00:23:16
Speaker 6: Their ears just aren't used to hearing that yet. So you don't want to just throw them into a rock concept. It's not crazy, right, They're like dogs time. Don't you remember being a kid.

00:23:25
Speaker 2: It's not being a critical it's not critical.

00:23:27
Speaker 4: I'm just saying, are they they're like dogs?

00:23:30
Speaker 7: The sounds are like dogs?

00:23:31
Speaker 5: Thank you?

00:23:32
Speaker 2: We'll be right. They're the same thing.

If you ever hear me taking up for Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer, then you're listening to the wrong person.

One person writes, Matt, why would you dismiss getting James Franklin? He's one everywhere he's gone. Why not here? Because we would have to pay the buyout? Right it ended up paying two biots. You'd be paying two buyouts. But more importantly, James Franklin has one. If he did as well here as he did at Penn State, that would be good. But is James Franklin the coach for the future. Sure my answer would be no. He was great for his time, but that time is now changing and I don't think he would be the guy.

00:26:08
Speaker 6: I don't really know what the future holds for James Franklin. I just think about when he ran up the score at Vandy, and when he and Mark Stoops almost fought at the Citrus Bowl, And I've just never liked him, and I don't think I could turn that off.

00:26:17
Speaker 4: I'm amazed how many people it seems like everyone in college football hating. They all root for his downfall.

00:26:22
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I've seen the.

00:26:26
Speaker 6: Penn State had the serious issue a year or two go. And I'll never forget that press conference. He stood there like a smarmy look, and he wouldn't answer, and he made like some.

00:26:33
Speaker 5: Media the question.

00:26:35
Speaker 6: That just said a lot about his character because he put the one dude in the spot that doesn't even do press conference as sid here it was, and he just stood there with his arms crossed behind him. I just thought that was a jerk move on top of all his other jerk moves.

00:26:46
Speaker 4: A lot of times I have to drive on Sundays, usually from Louisville back to Lexington to do the podcast. And you know, most podcasts don't update till Sunday nine. So the only like new podcast that's out on Sunday is Todd McShay. So he does like a thing and it's not particularly good. But what I've noticed about Tom McShay is he'll say anything. First of all, he called Paul finebaumb a dirty weasel the other.

00:27:11
Speaker 6: Day he did go look, is he not associated with any No, he's a ringer.

00:27:19
Speaker 5: He got on there Shinnon.

00:27:20
Speaker 4: He was like, he's a cheat, he's a liar, he's a dirty wheel.

00:27:24
Speaker 2: I was like, whoa, I like I like it.

00:27:26
Speaker 4: I gotta go look up mcshae and you can see his co host is going, hey, hey.

00:27:34
Speaker 5: Just picked up a new listener over here is just like.

00:27:39
Speaker 4: Well, but he was going off on James Franklin yesterday before he got fired, and he just seemed to hate him. Feels like the people that cover the sport just cannot stand it.

00:27:48
Speaker 5: Yeah.

00:27:48
Speaker 2: Like I said, I've never met him. He did not be respected at all by members of the media, by members of other good coaches. They just seemed to nobody says to respect that guy. Like that guy.

00:27:57
Speaker 5: I don't know why it is. Tristan, go ahead, Tristan, good morning, Good morning.

00:28:04
Speaker 14: So first off, shout out to Vasoline. Whatever the opposite of a shout out is, then it's to Peter Tiel, but shout out to Vasoline. All right, And my question is for you this morning, Matt. So you keep talking about video for your cover zero stuff. Where are you putting that out?

00:28:17
Speaker 7: Are streaming it on parafract we on YouTube.

00:28:20
Speaker 4: But it still looks bad. I mean, the problem we've had is it doesn't look good. I mean I've said it. It makes True and I both look like we're hide and crying. So sometimes the clips go out on Twitter, but they're all kind of embarrassing. We're doing the best we can. We're using cameras that were literally from the first BlackBerry.

00:28:42
Speaker 12: Yeah.

00:28:42
Speaker 14: So I spend a lot of time on YouTube. You search cover zero and all that comes up is defensive concepts and.

00:28:47
Speaker 5: It maybe.

00:28:49
Speaker 4: We might be I appreciate, Tristan appreciates call. We're kind of hiding it. To be honest with you, I don't want to start putting it up till it looks it looks awful, like it really looks terrible.

00:28:58
Speaker 5: And it's nobody's fault. Well it is.

00:29:01
Speaker 7: It's Billy's fault.

00:29:02
Speaker 4: It's Iheart's fault to some extent. But they're trying to improve it. But we hope to have it looking better. But when I look at myself on those clips, I'm like, please tell me I don't look like.

00:29:14
Speaker 5: That, remember, I guess not?

00:29:16
Speaker 2: Remember?

00:29:16
Speaker 6: So I like the Snapchat filter you put on people in their faces crying.

00:29:19
Speaker 5: Yeah, we're talking about it.

00:29:20
Speaker 3: Do it, do it, Simpson.

00:29:26
Speaker 6: We're debating Baker Mayfield or Sam Donald. But it looks like we're just crying our eyes out over it.

00:29:31
Speaker 4: Like there's the clips we just we both look so bad. And yet somehow Shannon Billy has the good camera.

00:29:37
Speaker 2: See he knows what he's doing.

00:29:38
Speaker 3: He's sabotaging, you get.

00:29:39
Speaker 4: I think he might be because Billy does have the the good camera. And when and we're doing it from home and we're on our iPads, we both look good for some reason. The official camera it just it's just terrible. They just sent in new ones, so we're gonna try it again.

00:29:53
Speaker 5: Nice. And this thing is lit for like prehistoric torture. It's not.

00:29:58
Speaker 4: It's not it's not it's not lit for not designed to be a TV. She's not designed to be a TV. Sure that radio people designed the visual. Anybody who's ever worked with lighting those having it behind you and over your head is the worst thing you can do, and that's kind of what they do.

00:30:15
Speaker 5: Adam, go ahead at him.

00:30:17
Speaker 12: I what's some guys? I had two points. First, seeing John wall At at Madness this like made my heart happy. After you know, not only is he one of the most beloved players in UK history, but to hear his podcast from a couple of months back where he was actually contemplating suicide, Like for him to have that moment, like let's like get him on staff or something like that so he can fill the presence of BBN all the time.

00:30:46
Speaker 4: It seemed like he loved it. Mario did it just it seemed like he strikes me, And I think DeMarcus is like, this is guys that are kind of at their happiest Adam when they're here, and I do enjoy that about him absolutely.

00:31:01
Speaker 12: And the second point, the pre hype video or whatnot. You know, imagine if we had something like that for UK football preseason, wouldn't people be more engaged? Like that that was the best content that UK media or athletics media has put out over the last five years. And to see that, it's like, well, you know, that's awesome for basketball, Man, it would have been nice to have something like that for football.

00:31:28
Speaker 4: Football's completely screwed up the preseason. I appreciate the call. They did everything they could have wrong. This is a again, part of the reason I'm not confident about the future is they did everything wrong in this offseason.

00:31:39
Speaker 2: Why didn't they have a fan fast event like the basketball team just had.

00:31:43
Speaker 4: Why didn't they just tell us who our players were?

00:31:45
Speaker 2: Why didn't they have a fan day? Why don't they have a women's class.

00:31:48
Speaker 6: It wasn't nearly like fan fest basketball, But I mean they had their open practice.

00:31:52
Speaker 5: They did. They had that for it was the day after our meeting.

00:31:55
Speaker 6: Now, there wasn't a lot of the extra stuff you'd want out there, but it did exist.

00:31:58
Speaker 4: I'm with you. I mean basketball all doesn't even need to do it in some ways, and they did it anyway. Right, Think about.

00:32:05
Speaker 6: Football right now, where we're very obviously out of crossroads, and we talk about some people want the team to lose. It's easier to want the team to lose or or be disappointed when you don't even really know the people under the Helpmelie. There's no connection of wanting to just root for them as people. Really there is exactly right. He's exactly right. It's it is harder. It's harder to be critical or hateful to people if you know them. It's my whole point of how we should watch We should all learn and talk to people that are different you're not gonna be as mean to people if you know them and you like them. We don't know these players, and so it's easy for people to go, oh, he stinks. They don't they don't know the first thing about him.

00:32:45
Speaker 2: Seth McGowan's got a great story. We knew nothing of it, or none knew nothing of him until media days.

00:32:49
Speaker 5: Seth McGowan's really good.

00:32:51
Speaker 2: He is really good.

00:32:52
Speaker 5: Do you think when he walks through Lexington anyone knows who he is?

00:32:55
Speaker 13: No?

00:32:56
Speaker 2: And he's probably our MVP. Well, he is our MV.

00:32:58
Speaker 4: I mean when he walks, if he walks to the bars, or let's say he showed up at Big Blue Madness. No, you think people would know who he Very unlikely?

00:33:08
Speaker 2: And he's a he's our most valuable players.

00:33:10
Speaker 5: I don't think A.

00:33:11
Speaker 2: Nope, I don't either.

00:33:11
Speaker 6: Well, how about at the last game where we have a receiver come off the bench and he looks like an NFL pro bowler and everyone in the fan base has like never heard of this person?

00:33:19
Speaker 5: Yeah, Chris, go ahead.

00:33:23
Speaker 15: Hey, Matt, I just want to say before I start to I would shake Mark Stuke's hand like if he were to be let go tomorrow, would shake his hand and thank him. But I just want to ask me.

00:33:33
Speaker 4: To we should if that happens, we should because he's done great.

00:33:37
Speaker 5: Stuff here, But go ahead.

00:33:40
Speaker 15: I just want to know, like, after twelve years, I mean, he's had six different offensive coordinators, we're still seeing the same end of game or end of half management, clock management issues Like why if we go six and six, would y'all like to see him get another shot?

00:33:56
Speaker 4: I just had to like, it's not that I would like to, it's just I don't think you really have another choice.

00:34:01
Speaker 5: I appreciate the call because of the thirty seven million dollars bio.

00:34:05
Speaker 2: And we have to look at the mirror. We still are Kentucky football, and six wins used to be the benchmark. We used to be happy and have parades. We get six wins to go to a bowl game. We're not too far removed from those days.

00:34:16
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't think we're gonna have to worry about that scenario.

00:34:20
Speaker 5: But yeah, I don't think you could fire him if you want six.

00:34:23
Speaker 2: I don't think so either. Seven is the tough one. I mean five, five, five, and seven.

00:34:28
Speaker 5: Yeah, seven would be pretty easy.

00:34:30
Speaker 4: Actually for uh there, you know, there's a lot of myths about UK Federal Credit Union.

00:34:35
Speaker 5: Can I ask UK Federal Credit Union for a favor?

00:34:38
Speaker 2: Yeah?

00:34:39
Speaker 5: Can we change my commercial that runs during the games.

00:34:41
Speaker 2: They run it every second of every commercial break.

00:34:45
Speaker 4: If you well, Billy, they had this ad. They asked me to put on a country accent and they run.

00:34:55
Speaker 2: It NonStop, non stop.

00:34:58
Speaker 5: I love the UK Federal Credit Oh yeah, y'all. I don't talk like that.

00:35:04
Speaker 3: Brian Kelly when he got the job at the l s USG talking his country.

00:35:11
Speaker 9: I'll do it.

00:35:11
Speaker 4: I'll do this ad like that. My familyst and there's yes about UK Federal Credit Union. Billy, No, seriously, go to the UK Federal Credit Union. It's not hard to join. They're the myths are busted. All you gotta do is go. Kentuckians get great rates and real benefits. There's seven local banches are onlineing under three minutes. Whether you wear blue or white or not, it's UK Federal Credit Union. We're not just for some, Shannon, We're for all, y'all. Membership eligibility required federally insured by n c u A. We'll take a break, very back, welcome back, take you sports radio, Shannon. Some breaking news.

00:35:50
Speaker 7: Oh hang on, I'm not even ready.

00:35:53
Speaker 5: You got this. Hang on, I'm waiting all day.

00:35:57
Speaker 4: I do it more important break the news was waiting. The SEC has released its pre season honors. Otaga away picked pre season SEC Player of the Year. Wow, First Team All SEC, Jyalen Lowe predicted third team All SEC, and Kentucky predicted to be second in the conference behind Florida.

00:36:25
Speaker 5: You like that? You know?

00:36:27
Speaker 2: Otaga a guy we hardly talk. Of course, he's hurt right now. We don't hardly even talk about him.

00:36:32
Speaker 5: No, we don't. It's crazy. We have preseason SEC Player of the Year.

00:36:35
Speaker 2: He never gets well, we don't even talk about him. You know how many when's last time we actually talked about Otaga helping this team. What he can do to this team on this show.

00:36:41
Speaker 5: Is just a sure thing.

00:36:42
Speaker 6: Whatever that stat was last year about his double digit games, you just you know he's gonna show up.

00:36:47
Speaker 5: It is amazing, though, They're like, we don't even know.

00:36:50
Speaker 2: We talk a lot about low We talked about Trent Noah today, we talked about even YELLOWC haven't mentioned Otega, and he is the SEC preseason Player of the Year.

00:36:57
Speaker 4: Well, congrats to him. I mean, how about that that's a kid who I mean when he came here, you would have never imagined that would be something that would happen for.

00:37:05
Speaker 6: A lot of people, me included when I'm sure where he'd fit in and yeah, start eh he kind.

00:37:09
Speaker 4: Of debated that brea away spot.

00:37:12
Speaker 5: Who's gonna go there?

00:37:13
Speaker 4: Boy?

00:37:13
Speaker 6: Did we were weren't sure what was ahead there with him? He was awesome last year and expected again.

00:37:17
Speaker 4: Totally agree ef I'm nine two eight h twenty two eighty seven one person rights, Matt, Why do you keep saying that we have to pay Franklin's buyout? Doesn't Penn State? Well no, Actually, if you if you negotiate the contracts, well you can end up with what Penn State has, which is, if Franklin goes somewhere else, the money's offset. So let me explain how this should work. Here's what Franklin should do. But he got fired, so I don't so because he got fired, he's gonna end up getting it. But if he goes and work somewhere else, the money gets offset. So if he comes to you know, Vandy again and he gets paid six million a year, then Penn State will only owe him the difference between what he would have made at Penn State and what he makes advancing. So here's what coaches do. Here's what Mark Stoops would do if it wasn't due in twenty days. He would say, Okay, you owe me thirty seven million dollars. I want to go coach here for six million dollars a year, but I want to make all six million dollars. I don't want to go work there for free. How about you just give me fifteen or twenty. I'll go away and then I can make my full salary there and get this twenty million dollars. UK has an incentive to do it right.

00:38:35
Speaker 2: Sure they do.

00:38:36
Speaker 4: However, we can't do that because it's all due upfront. So he can get his money, wait a year and then go get full money. So the thing that usually offsets your price of the buy out, we don't even get.

00:38:51
Speaker 5: That's fun, it's fun for us.

00:38:53
Speaker 2: That's what people keep saying. Why didn't Mark Studs fall on the sword and walk away for what he's done in the program? Would you do that for?

00:38:59
Speaker 4: That's what I thought would do is cal would say, buy me out for less, and then I'll go coach somewhere else and Cindy just left. So Cal actually left money on the table, KL did. It's the best face he did, is a I mean like Cal could have made that a lot worse and he didn't.

00:39:13
Speaker 6: So yeah, I shout out to that Vegas hotel room at the final four. It's kind of what what got him in the contract.

00:39:19
Speaker 5: Yeah, let's go to But here's my point.

00:39:21
Speaker 4: If Stoops goes and gets money, goes and gets another job, it doesn't change the amount we have to pay, all right, unless he has a job and then he negotiates it so he can get paid twice, which is the best possible scenario for Kentucky. He finds another job, he wants to get that full salary, so he takes less than the thirty seven million from the take. That's what you have to hope for if you want him gone.

00:39:45
Speaker 2: But if he keep him build the end of the season and all these other schools are hiring coaches so quickly, it's.

00:39:50
Speaker 5: A great point. Let's go to Brat Brat.

00:39:57
Speaker 13: Hey, guys, if we can find thirty seven million dollars to my ole Stokes, wouldn't it be smarter to find seven or eighteen and a half million for the next teach in the next two years to go build the roster, which is the whole reason we're losing. We're not losing because he's a bad coach. And you could say, oh, he didn't recruit, Well, he doesn't have the money to recruit all the guys that were competing against.

00:40:22
Speaker 2: Yeah, but here's the thing.

00:40:24
Speaker 4: I don't buy that money.

00:40:26
Speaker 5: I don't buy that.

00:40:27
Speaker 4: I think you were correct if you're talking about beating Georgia. But we have spent more on our roster than Bandy has. We have spent more than Missouri has, and we've probably spent a pretty equivalent amount to say South Carolina maybe you know, I don't know what all the Mississippi State, Indiana. So yeah, I mean, if we were only losing to the great teams, then I'd be totally with you.

00:40:57
Speaker 5: But we're losing to everybody.

00:41:00
Speaker 13: Did we just not spend money on a quarterback for a reason, whereas all of those teams we did spend.

00:41:06
Speaker 4: Money on the quarterback. We spent money on Calsota. It just didn't work. He's getting pretty good money.

00:41:14
Speaker 11: That was a We spent a lot.

00:41:17
Speaker 4: Of money on the offensive line. That's where all the money we spent I appreciate the car we spent. Our offensive line cost us a lot of money. That whole line was paid at least a million bucks each, So you want to know where our money went and went to the offensive line.

00:41:32
Speaker 5: It's all there.

00:41:34
Speaker 6: Cals Oda was expensive, but probably a little cheaper than most people expect because they spent so much on the guys to protect him, hoping that will kind of help fix some of the problems.

00:41:41
Speaker 4: So far, it's been okay, yeah, but it's not been the strength. But yes, we last year money was an issue. I don't think that's the issue this year, do you.

00:41:53
Speaker 2: I just don't know what you think. They just spent it on the wrong people the wrong way.

00:41:57
Speaker 4: I think when you don't have the base, the transfer portal needs to add to your base. Our base was bad, so we're trying to add, whereas in years past, I think our base was pretty good.

00:42:10
Speaker 6: And the money thing isn't the reason. It's almost been two calendar years since we've scored three.

00:42:14
Speaker 5: Touchdowns in a game. Yeah, and the money, it is not a money thing.

00:42:17
Speaker 4: The money does not cause you to screw up the clock at the end of the first half every single correct That's not a money, Andrew, I got like thirty seconds go ahead.

00:42:28
Speaker 8: I think it's inevitable with the new scheduling that they're going to add, you know, the ticket prices that want to go up because we've added the conference game, and good luck even if he wins four or five games trying to get people to spend more money to go watch this again.

00:42:44
Speaker 4: Totally agree, appreciate the call. I mean most schools are going to raise their ticket prices due to revenue sharing. Is this a good time for Kentucky to Razor?

00:42:54
Speaker 13: No?

00:42:55
Speaker 1: No, no, no no, So it's just a bad situation.

00:43:00
Speaker 4: All right, We'll be back at studio tomorrow. My Trivia wednesdaysr
