Speaker 1: One of the biggest misconceptions about buying a home right now is that you have to wait for the perfect moment, perfect rates, perfect timing, perfect market. The truth is that moment doesn't really exist. A lot of buyers pause because of headlines or assumptions, but every situation is different. Race change, market shift, and personal goals matter just as much as what's happening nationally. That's why talking to a local lender can be so valuable. When you contact Doctor Mortgage, you get paired up with a local lender. That lender will give you your options. That lender will explain the situation. You can ask your own questions. That's what it's all about, getting to the closing table as simple and as easy as possible. Our friends at scot To Mortgage focus on helping people understand their options. Whether you're ready to buy now later or just starting to ask questions. There's no pressure to make a decision, just a chance to get real information and a clear picture of what's possible.

Speaker 2: Welcome to Hour two of Kentucky Sports Radio presented by Stockton Mortgage. Now here's Matt Jones.

00:01:11
Speaker 3: We'k'me back. It is the Kentucky Select Chevy Dealers KSR pregame show or Hour number two of KSR, whichever you want it to be. Eight five nine two eight oh twenty two eighty seven seven seven two four five two five four. Just got a message from one of my friends. Starting to see some of the big Blue mist in Nashville. Not quite what it is normally, but there are a lot of Kentucky fans here.

00:01:33
Speaker 4: It's cool to hear that guy called in right at the end of the first hour. He's in line with other UK fans waiting to get in for the game today. It's kind of cool to hear that.

00:01:41
Speaker 3: I don't know if this is a compliment shit, somebody writes. As a woman, I want to agree with the guy. It's fine. Ryan's a harmless, dirty old man, not a creepy old PERV. There's a big difference.

00:01:53
Speaker 2: Really, dirty old man creepy old PERV. I would fill under the same category under the same umbrella.

00:01:58
Speaker 3: She says, there's a distinct.

00:02:00
Speaker 2: Well, that's good right, backhanded compliment.

00:02:03
Speaker 3: Right, that's kind of a compliment.

00:02:05
Speaker 4: I don't even know if I even agree with her.

00:02:09
Speaker 2: Well, you think you're creepy.

00:02:10
Speaker 3: That can be a little cringey, Yeah, you can. I think she's trying to say, though, Well, my vote is, let's get in none of those categories, yes, and just be regular. Dakota Johnson has a new Calvin Klein ad campaign. I saw it. I've seen it. Colvin Klein's all up in the JFK Show. He's all, that's my that's my dirty uhilasure pleasure. That show is awful. It's awful, but it's actually kind of great, and I feel like I feel like the It just reminded me how much better the nineties wor Shannon than everything else. Yeah, except for the cigarettes. The cigarettes an anti cigarette, but besides the cigarettes, and nineties were just better.

00:02:50
Speaker 2: Pop culture was better, pop culture.

00:02:52
Speaker 3: Is better, music's better. Even economy was good.

00:02:57
Speaker 2: Ebody say that though back in my day.

00:02:59
Speaker 3: I don't know if they realized it or not. And I think we're going to look back in hindsight and say that pre computers, we didn't have to worry about being available twenty four hours a day.

00:03:09
Speaker 2: But we're the old men now saying that everything was no.

00:03:12
Speaker 3: But I think it's true. I think even young people are kind of nostalgic about it, just like Shannon. When we were young, people were nostalgic about like the sixties. Yeah right, they were like, oh, we missed all the great times in the sixties. I'm going to say the nineties were before we got addicted to these phones. We still like did face to face things.

00:03:31
Speaker 2: Yeah, but if you wanted to find something out, you had to go to a library look at it. And that's okay.

00:03:36
Speaker 3: We don't need to know all this stuff.

00:03:38
Speaker 2: Now I can just pull up my phone and boom, there it is. But maybe we don't need to know everything. Way good?

00:03:46
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, Kentucky and LSU. I'm going to go to the phone here in just one second. LSU's without their backup, Big Robert Thomas or whatever. He's going to be out. He uh, he's been playing well recently. I don't remember if he played well against us, but that gives them one last big probably not a huge difference.

00:04:07
Speaker 4: You feel good, Actually I do, And that's why I pick Malachi to be my player of the game. There, you know, they're a little fan in the front court. And you know he came coming off the Malachi miracle shot first SEC tournament. The kid's gonna play well today for Kentucky.

00:04:20
Speaker 3: The Coda Johnson is Don Johnson's daughter.

00:04:22
Speaker 4: Yeah, Melanie Griffith and Don Johnson's daughter.

00:04:24
Speaker 3: How did I not know that?

00:04:25
Speaker 4: I don't know down up on pop culture, I guess.

00:04:28
Speaker 2: Huh, which I about Robert Miller too, right, not Robert Thomas issue.

00:04:33
Speaker 3: I'm talking abou Dakota Johnson. Robert Miller.

00:04:35
Speaker 2: You said, Robert Thomas, I'm gonna go time.

00:04:37
Speaker 3: I'm sorry. I don't keep the LSU roster on my roll decks and I don't have roller decks anymore. And I had one in the nineties. It was good, it was better.

00:04:46
Speaker 4: You remember when we played him down there, it was a must win game for them. They played really well. Now they got nothing to play for. I mean, they're not going to the tournament well.

00:04:55
Speaker 3: And then some people think is their coach getting fired?

00:04:58
Speaker 4: I think he's probably gonna get fired.

00:05:00
Speaker 3: Yea, because they're talking about trying to bring Will Wade back.

00:05:03
Speaker 4: Really they bring him back?

00:05:04
Speaker 3: Yeah, there are some people in l s U that want that although I don't. I think n C State's probably a better job where he is now. Well, I don't know if you'd bring somebody who is their coach. Matt McMahon still, yeah, that's it, he went he was from Murray, right, Yes, uh huh, that's right. I do not know how I know that. How did you pull that one out? I don't know. I'm really surprised. I know who else shoes coaches. Let's talk about what happens if we We talked earlier about what happens if we win? When did we lose? What's the postgame show like today?

00:05:37
Speaker 4: If we lose Apocalyptic, There'll be people calling for Pope's firing immediately.

00:05:41
Speaker 3: They will not be happy.

00:05:43
Speaker 4: If they lose to l s U in the first game of the SEC tournament on a Wednesday, they just there'll be people that Waynam fired.

00:05:48
Speaker 3: Gone sixteen seat LSU's the last seed.

00:05:51
Speaker 4: Yeah, don't you think people. You'll get people calling for him and they'll want you to call for it.

00:05:57
Speaker 3: Well, I'm not going to call for it. With the tournament next week, and I'm not I'd probably call for it anyway because I don't believe that, But I will say you know this would be another strike. Yep, because I told you I judged the season on three criteria. He has already failed or d plused this regular season one. Now we have two and three and can't I mean, you know, I'll if we get to Friday and we lose, like you're playing Florida, they might win the national championship. I'm not gonna go crazy. Now is your fault. You're in a situation where you may have to play them Friday, but if you lose to LSU in the first round, you know the way it is what it is now. There a name got floated around yesterday. It's still not clear to me whether or not Mark Pope's hire in a gym.

00:06:53
Speaker 4: Why don't you just come out?

00:06:54
Speaker 3: But he won't say he will not call it a GM. Yes, he'll just say we're hiring people to do things. It's I'm you know, there's some stubbornness now coming on this. So there's some guy that people are are uh talking that was that was at BYU and now's with the Milwaukee Bucks. But it sounds like he would not be a GM. He would be some sort of analytic something model.

00:07:17
Speaker 5: He kept saying. Model.

00:07:19
Speaker 2: He said that three or four times in the past. Gard's model. He said, the model look at the models.

00:07:24
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think we need more models.

00:07:28
Speaker 4: It's just it's a glaring a mission if every team's got one except you and Saint John's.

00:07:35
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, and Rick Patino. You know he's one.

00:07:39
Speaker 4: And one of the biggest champions.

00:07:40
Speaker 3: But it's probably terrible that Drew was right. It's the fact that Saint John's got rid of it is because you know he he's so connected. Yes, well, anyway, Uh, the guy that they mentioned, I don't know him. He may be great at it, but it just looks like they're not gonna I mean, the is going to open on what the portal opens in three weeks. But it's not even about that. You need like there guys every day who their season is ending. Let me give you an example. Uh last night, who won between was it Sienna and Merrimack? I don't know. I think it was CNN Merrimack. Mayor Mack had a dude that's averaging twenty four points a game as a freshman and was player of the league in that league. I think Sienna beat him. Yeah, they did, so, Mayor Mack. That guy is now ready to be talking a free agent. He's averaging twenty four points a game in the in the as a freshman in that he's he's going somewhere somebody. Now, I'm not saying we should get him. I don't know him, but like teams are gonna start contacting him. Yeah, right, And we don't have anybody in plays. So I don't know if you want the guy from maryor Mack, but I will tell you a freshman at twenty four points a game, you gotta at least look at him from Miss Mary mac macmac all dressed in black. You might you might want him. And then there was a kid at the Hofstra game. The MVP of that tournament was a freshman who averaged twenty six points a game in the conference tournament. You got it, he's going to go somewhere else.

00:09:18
Speaker 4: Yeah, you got to get You put yourself in position, you got a chance.

00:09:21
Speaker 3: And I hope we assume we have guys who know who these people are. But it feels like if you're going to have a GM, you'd want to have them. That's what a GM. Mayor Mac guy's phones ringing today. Yes, So Joe, go for it, Joe, Joe, go ahead.

00:09:40
Speaker 6: Hey, Matt, Hey, Matt uh.

00:09:44
Speaker 7: I want to give a shout out to uh uh Person County on the third region last night.

00:09:50
Speaker 4: Who Grayson County upset Davis County and third?

00:09:55
Speaker 3: Yeah, is that a big upset?

00:09:56
Speaker 4: Well, they beat Davis County. I think it was a favorite in Grayson County. Now only beat them. They won the region. They're coming to Rup.

00:10:02
Speaker 7: They beat them twice in two weeks. His only team in the state to beat Davis County.

00:10:08
Speaker 3: But let's go Grayson County. When's the last time Grayson County has been to the Sweet sixteen?

00:10:16
Speaker 8: Wow?

00:10:16
Speaker 3: All right, Well, good for Grayson County. Yeah they got, yeah, they got.

00:10:43
Speaker 4: You see your North North worl beat your Bell County.

00:10:45
Speaker 3: Bobcast I saw that. And also how about shout out Larry Blondell his Butler High School where he talked fifty years ago. He talked about it on the show. And they don't ever go right, I can't.

00:10:58
Speaker 4: Well, the new man forgot one. But yeah, they're rare to come out of that region.

00:11:02
Speaker 3: Larry taught math at Butler High School in like the mid seventies at the Larry Bump this week, and they play North Laura on the first, or no, they play Hazzard. So it's a battle of Eastern Kentucky, battle of Larry Butler v Hazard Larry.

00:11:19
Speaker 4: Larry loved that guy and the fact that he talked about Butler on the show.

00:11:22
Speaker 3: Where is Butler High School in Louisville, Shannon, I don't think I've ever passed it. What part of town is it in?

00:11:29
Speaker 5: I don't know exactly. I'm sure i've been there.

00:11:31
Speaker 2: I probably played baseball there back in high school, but I don't know where it's at.

00:11:35
Speaker 3: Well, look it up.

00:11:35
Speaker 5: I don't know what street that's on, DG, go ahead, d just Crumbs Lane.

00:11:40
Speaker 3: Well, where's Crumb's Lane?

00:11:42
Speaker 2: You want me to get you at?

00:11:43
Speaker 3: What's in Shavely? Butler? Just in Shavely?

00:11:46
Speaker 5: Yeah, there you go.

00:11:47
Speaker 3: I didn't know that. Yeah, Shavely's its own thing, you know, like you got Shavely, like you gotta know.

00:11:55
Speaker 2: People got to be tough to live in Shovely.

00:11:57
Speaker 3: You can't. Shively's a different, different kind of place.

00:12:00
Speaker 5: Lively Shively, Lively.

00:12:03
Speaker 3: They call it lively Shively. First time I moved to Louisville, I was looking for a sports bar and I looked it up and it said go to this place. I think it was called Hoops.

00:12:13
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, Hoops on Great Lane.

00:12:15
Speaker 3: In Shot that's in Shively, isn't it. And I went and I was like, oh, you're amongst them. Okay, welcome to Hoops KG go ahead.

00:12:30
Speaker 9: What's up, fellow?

00:12:31
Speaker 3: This d G must go ahead.

00:12:34
Speaker 10: Coming into Nashville right now with my dad excited about today, maybe we can get to win hopefully.

00:12:40
Speaker 11: Uh.

00:12:40
Speaker 10: I had a cool well would you rather question for you?

00:12:43
Speaker 3: For you all?

00:12:43
Speaker 10: So me and my buddies we do a podcast called Bluegrass State of Mind. Shut up to that, but we can't.

00:12:49
Speaker 3: Give You can't give a shout out, you can't go you can't shout out to myself. You can't do that.

00:12:56
Speaker 10: But go ahead, Well it's more so for the other guys. But anyways, would you rather us run the table this week and weekend and win five straight games and win the SEC Championship and get bounced the first round of the NCAA tournament, or would you rather us lose today and make it to the Sleet sixteen and get bounced to Sleet sixteen.

00:13:16
Speaker 8: I think you have a case for both.

00:13:17
Speaker 9: I think I know where you're I think that's.

00:13:19
Speaker 3: An interesting question. I appreciate, Carl. I'm taking the SEC tournament. If you're telling me Sweet sixteen. Now, if you go me, if you go one more round and we say Elite eight, then I'm gonna take the Elite eight. But for the Sweet sixteen, give me the SEC tournament five straight in five days. I think it would be a fun run. It would be one we remember. I'll take it.

00:13:38
Speaker 4: The fact we've not won the tournament since what twenty eighteen with Shay. If we make five wins in five days and win the tournament, I'm taking that. We went to the Sweet sixteen last year. This year's team's not gonna win a title in the NCAA tournament. If we win the SEC title, I'm taking it.

00:13:51
Speaker 3: If you told me Elite eight, I'd take the Elite run but I think if we're in order to do that, we're probably gonna have to beat Florida, Tennessee and maybe Arkansas back to back. Awesome would that be? Can you imagine what nashvilleill be like? Crazy? It'd be like lively Shively at hoops at hoops, hoops still open.

00:14:17
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think they are this team winning any kind of championship. I think you would take y right. I'll be the SEC.

00:14:23
Speaker 3: I think most fans would agree with us too. Don't you have you been to hoops?

00:14:26
Speaker 8: I have?

00:14:27
Speaker 3: Yeah, yep, may have to go back sometimes. I literally when I first moved to Loveland in two thousand and six, first place I went Lively Shots.

00:14:39
Speaker 2: I think I used to host an event out there.

00:14:42
Speaker 3: Yeah, they that's the kind of place it would happen. Oh, they weren't there that one. I wasn't there that day.

00:14:49
Speaker 5: I think it was slipping slide, Bikini slipping slide.

00:14:52
Speaker 2: I was the host. That was a great gig.

00:14:54
Speaker 3: Shandon was in the mkinis. Spring has sprung, and that means you may be getting outside more, whether it's doing yard or staying active by biking or running.

But Court Physical Therapy can help our therapists know what it takes to help you heal and get back to things you enjoy. Over seventy locations statewide, It's court dot com experience the best in rehab ko rt dot com. We'll take a break right back. Tucky sports radio people very like technical about there. What's Shively and what's South End? Must people consider everything south basically Shyly?

00:15:40
Speaker 11: Right?

00:15:40
Speaker 2: Yeah? I mean when it says south Side next to hoops on a map, yeah, close enough.

00:15:47
Speaker 3: I'm trying to be confidential. I like, that's it's close to Dixie Highway. You're in Shyly. Yeah. Now people are saying, no, no, it's South End. That's like the difference when people go where we're in Bell County. If you're in Clear Clear Creek and Straight Creek still all Creek.

00:16:04
Speaker 4: So what's the dividing line people have to in louis Louisville.

00:16:07
Speaker 3: People, man, they take the parts of their town serious, they do, don't they? YEA, Yeah, I mean you you're if you're in London, or you're in Jay Town, or you're in Saint Matthew's or you're in the Highlands, or you're in p RP like everything. People take their section of towns. Actually, part of it's because Shennon they all have like their own fire departments and their own police departments. It's so it's so different, it's so weird. Like you don't do that in Lexington. You're not like.

00:16:38
Speaker 2: Everybody's people live on the in Dixie Highway, like on Dixie Highway for some reason or like really just like don't don't mess up where my hometown is, don't you know, you gotta get it right.

00:16:48
Speaker 3: I love Dixie Highway, but Dixie Highway. You it's a different city than everywhere. No, it really is. It's like you're in you you would barely know you're in Louisville if you're if you're out on Dixie Highway.

00:17:01
Speaker 4: So what's the high school out there? You're talking about that in the south side area?

00:17:04
Speaker 2: Well, Iroquois, right, I think the Sales is close?

00:17:08
Speaker 3: Is it isn't Fairdale out there close? Yeah?

00:17:14
Speaker 11: So?

00:17:15
Speaker 3: And Hoops oops, but don't say Hoops is in shy eight five nine two A zero twenty two eighty seven one person rights. If we were to win the SEC tournament, who would be the MVP. Well, oh way, but you know sometimes in the SEC tournament, you get your Dominie Hawkins, you get your random guy who's a random guy you think could have a big tournament.

00:17:37
Speaker 5: Colin Chandler, he'd beat my pick.

00:17:39
Speaker 3: I don't know if he's random, but yeah, I mean he because he could put up big point games. He gets hot, I mean random would be somebody like Yellovich.

00:17:50
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'd be shocked if he were the MVP.

00:17:52
Speaker 3: But yeah, if you have well, not MVP, but if yellowc made All First team because he scored double digits every game or something. So who would be the one guy out side of Yellowitch Yellow, Well, there's some one. We only we only play nine guys, so you're running out of If we can't pick Stars or Yellow Itch, then we're basically running out of people because Jasper and Noah won't play enough. Yeah, so you don't tell Meg Malachi, don't stop.

00:18:18
Speaker 2: He would be random.

00:18:19
Speaker 3: BG would be the most random here. I'll tell you what. Let's do a bet because I would like this to happen. Give me something to do if BG goes double digits in the game. All right, what's something I could do?

00:18:37
Speaker 5: Shave your head?

00:18:38
Speaker 3: You know that I have enough problem with that as it is. I'm not shaving it.

00:18:44
Speaker 4: Uh, fix us all at dinner.

00:18:46
Speaker 3: Oh come on, oh come on, that's not that's not a prize for you. No, no, okay, I got it.

00:18:53
Speaker 2: You gotta get on the mechanical bull at kid Rocks Bar on broad.

00:18:56
Speaker 3: All right, I'll do that. If b G gets double digits mechanical bull that I'm taking the cowboy hat.

00:19:04
Speaker 4: It's Readysville.

00:19:05
Speaker 3: Yeah. If you see me out in the cowboy hat, you know the party started. Murph, go ahead and Murph, Hey, Matt, how are you all doing good? Just want to clarify. For the US not to advance onto the tournament, Mexico has to score five or more runs for them to advance or Italy to win. So they have to score five runs five or more. Yes, okay, so we need so for us to go, we neither either Mexico to lose or to score less than five runs. Yes, gotcha? Okay, all right.

00:19:41
Speaker 10: And then my next thing is, this is Nashville.

00:19:43
Speaker 6: We have a tega O way.

00:19:45
Speaker 10: If you're scared, go to church. We're beating Florida.

00:19:49
Speaker 3: Well let's listen. I'm gonna be I appreciate the call. I'm gonna pick us to win every game because it's Nashville and it's time for us to take that city back. But first we got to beat Lshie. Let's let's beat the first game verse And I'm you know, if we were getting if we had gotten South Carolina or Old Miss, I'd feel good about it. But we got the one team that I mean, they y'all played us in that game. We beat it, they did. We kind of we stole that one.

00:20:11
Speaker 4: Like I said, that game meant so much to them at that point. They had to get a win. Now they got a lame duck coach. Nobody cares. They're not going to the nca Tournament. I think we're catching them at a good time.

00:20:19
Speaker 3: There's another high school that's out there, Dows.

00:20:22
Speaker 4: It's down on the South End.

00:20:24
Speaker 3: Yeah, you talk, that's a high school. You never hear anyone mention? No do you do you ever hear dos? You know anybody ever went to Das?

00:20:32
Speaker 8: No?

00:20:34
Speaker 3: I have no idea. I've never heard Dass. Maybe the most anonymous Louisville school, isn't it, Shannon.

00:20:43
Speaker 2: I mean, I've heard of it. I know what exists.

00:20:45
Speaker 3: Tell me something you know about.

00:20:46
Speaker 5: Dosh yeah, exists.

00:20:48
Speaker 3: I don't know anything about it, Mike, go ahead, Mike.

00:20:53
Speaker 9: Hey, I think whoever's best mentally prepared for this game today wins, and I believe that not to L s U. I'm picking L s U. I think this team, this coaching staff, you know, we lucked out winning down there, and I think they want this game big time. I think they want it more than us, and I think they're mentally prepared.

00:21:18
Speaker 3: But let me ask you a question. Give me one fact that makes you think they want it more than us. Tell me your L s U uh want to knowledge?

00:21:30
Speaker 9: Well, I just they we stole that game from them down there, But that.

00:21:34
Speaker 3: Has nothing to do with how much they wanted. Like, where are you getting that information? Because I think I'm not.

00:21:41
Speaker 9: It's my own feeling. I'm their coach. This is probably his last game. I think they want to win this one for the coach too, But they want to beat us bad because we beat them down there at their place again. I should think.

00:21:58
Speaker 3: Yeah, But I think sometimes it's easy when we're down on our team to just assume that you know the other team's gonna be much more more. Maybe they will. I don't know. But like, let's be honest, none of us have any idea what LSU basketball is doing right now. No, can we say the same thing about our team. No, we know about our team. We don't know anything about the LSU. There might be zero point one percent of the listeners here that really know the LSU basketball team. Like, we don't fall, we don't know. If we're honest, If we're honest, we don't know. It's gonna be about us. If we play well, we will win. If we don't, then we give them a chance to win. But like, we don't know what LSU is thinking going into this game. Oh do we do? You know? That'sought?

00:22:53
Speaker 4: I feel like our team's been so unpredictable. I don't know about how.

00:22:56
Speaker 2: I know something about Doss High School? Now what Derek Anderson went to dos?

00:23:00
Speaker 3: That's right? Wow? Did he realized?

00:23:02
Speaker 12: Right?

00:23:03
Speaker 3: Da went to DAWs?

00:23:04
Speaker 5: Thanks?

00:23:05
Speaker 3: Did he go to Sweet sixteen when he was here? When he was there? I don't know?

00:23:09
Speaker 5: Yeah he went there?

00:23:10
Speaker 3: Good call? All right, we'll take a break right back. It's the Kentucky Select Chevy Dealers KSR pregame TJ. Smith, personal injury attorney called TJ.

Speaker 5: Here's Matt Jones.

00:23:25
Speaker 3: You know the Kentucky Select Chevy Dealers KSR pregame. You never know what it's going to end up. I mean, we've done. This is all about the south side of Louisville. I'm glad to be told that I was right Channing Hoops has moved. The one you and I went to was somewhere else.

00:23:40
Speaker 5: Maybe that's what we're The one now.

00:23:42
Speaker 3: Is out there next to the airport. And I believe that that was close to where the plane crashed.

00:23:47
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, great lane, right, yeah, I.

00:23:51
Speaker 3: Think that just recently. I think that was very close to to that place. We're getting to that age where you just go.

00:23:58
Speaker 2: Didn't they to be a pharmacy over there?

00:24:02
Speaker 3: But yeah, there used to be a shoest order. I used to laugh at my parents and grandparents because they would do that. They go that used to be where th H. Campbell was, and I'd be like, I hope I don't do that.

00:24:17
Speaker 13: We are, But then you can't help it. You can't help it. Hoops used to be okay, I can't help you. I asked where the prime surnaloon was sorry, SEC tournament. We're playing on Wednesday. What do you want from me?

00:24:31
Speaker 3: Ks Bar opens at eleven and the game will be on at twelve thirty. I know Nick Rouse and Adam Lucker will be there. They can answer all your football questions there. They're coming from spring practice to there. Spring practice happened, Justin will Stein said, fifteen practices. Every practice they introduce a new set, so that at the end of it they will have introduced all of their sets. So they've timed it to where each day they learn something new, and then the next day they go what they learned and then teach them another thing, and that each day they will slowly build up to teach the entire offense and defense over the course of the fifteen US what.

00:25:08
Speaker 4: You gotta do, and you're starting from scratch, darting something new. I love what he said yesterday too. They're gonna have scrimmages. They're gonna pay with tackling.

00:25:15
Speaker 3: Do you like that?

00:25:16
Speaker 8: I do like that.

00:25:17
Speaker 4: That's all old school spring football. You have to scrimmage every Saturday.

00:25:20
Speaker 3: Well, we're gonna say that if somebody gets hurt.

00:25:22
Speaker 4: Probably not, but I'm paying it right now we're gonna have a real spring game. You know, he keeps talking about that, and they're gonna play.

00:25:28
Speaker 3: He's not gonna be two in touch and and they're gonna tack all in the spring.

00:25:32
Speaker 2: Can't play. Scared as you right, if you're scared, go to church.

00:25:35
Speaker 3: Scared, go to church. A F F nine two A zero twenty two eighty seven. Marshall, go ahead. Marshall sounds like Mike needs to go to I agree.

00:25:46
Speaker 2: I'm on I forty.

00:25:47
Speaker 12: I'm on I forty. It just got out in the class. Taking a midterm definitely failed it, but we were locked in. I'm zero to seven and my last Kentucky collegiate basketball football games. But it changes today.

00:26:01
Speaker 3: We've lost the last seven games you've been to.

00:26:04
Speaker 12: I was at the Vandy game in Nashville. I was at the Louisville game this year. I was at the football game of Texas Ole Miss and Tennessee lost to Bama last year. Next to the tournament. I'm missing one more. I can't remember what it was. But today Colin Chandler five threes. Yeah, we're talking on everybody always going for thirty. It's going to be a hell of a night. Go Cast, Go Big Blue, see.

00:26:30
Speaker 9: Cats, cat chat, love it, I love it.

00:26:33
Speaker 3: I say, you know you do not beat a Mike team eight straight times? Now, you don't eight times a chunk.

00:26:40
Speaker 5: If we lose, we're blaming that guy.

00:26:42
Speaker 3: If we use, it's your fault, though, Mike Marshall, same to you. Marshall's fault too. We're going to be doing the postgame show in Bowing Green and then driving to Nashville after that, So we'll get to Nashville tonight. Remember tomorrow we are at ten roof. Win or lose. It's right lose, win or lose, So we want you to be there. It'll either be fun getting you ready for the game against Missouri or it'll be tears and beers with Drew. But we want you to be ready tomorrow because we're gonna be there either way. Starting. Uh, what are y'all? What do you do? Are you doing the pre show tomorrow? What's happening tomorrow?

00:27:24
Speaker 2: We're doing the same thing. If Kentucky wins, we're doing the same thing tomorrow.

00:27:27
Speaker 3: Kentucky wins tomorrow, so then it'll be and then if we lose. I don't know what we're doing.

00:27:31
Speaker 2: I guess we'll do with the pre show and then the KSR show.

00:27:35
Speaker 3: I guess yeahs. But either way nine o'clock, which will be eight o'clock Central, you're there, yes, and we play Missouri. Hopefully we win. It's very complicated, this whole thing. Mike, go ahead, Mike. How many mics do we have? Go ahead, Mike.

00:27:53
Speaker 6: Yeah, y'all gonna be hating the mics today.

00:27:55
Speaker 3: I tell you that.

00:27:56
Speaker 6: But I tell you I was in there lesson and I'm so sick of it. Oh man, which would you brother suck?

00:28:01
Speaker 7: Listen? You know, I'm just gonna tell you, mar where's is Kentucky?

00:28:07
Speaker 6: You could have took us in the SEC turn against the field throughout history and make money.

00:28:13
Speaker 14: If he can't get a GM.

00:28:14
Speaker 7: And he don't do what he needs to do, then get you as out of town goodbye.

00:28:20
Speaker 4: Well, I mean a lot of people both say the same thing.

00:28:23
Speaker 3: Those are strong words, but also I understand what he means. Let's go to Kim. Go ahead, Kim.

00:28:30
Speaker 13: Hey man, we're.

00:28:31
Speaker 1: Coming into Nashville and we have tickets for today.

00:28:35
Speaker 12: Where were those tickets that you said for the host session?

00:28:38
Speaker 10: We're three forty eight.

00:28:40
Speaker 3: It was on stub Hub.

00:28:42
Speaker 15: Stub Hub.

00:28:43
Speaker 14: Great, thank you, Gokats.

00:28:45
Speaker 13: We're gonna win today by twenty appreciate it.

00:28:48
Speaker 3: I mean, hopefully they're still they're on stuff. But there are others for like three eighty three, seventy, you.

00:28:53
Speaker 4: Know, Mike, Right, Kentucky's won what thirty one SEC tournament titles and the second place team is Alabama with eight. This is our tournament.

00:29:02
Speaker 3: If you look at the graphic of SEC tournament winners, it's amazing to see all the Kentucky logos. But we don't have one recently, not since twenty eighteen. Right, Yeah, it's a long drought. Hamden, what's up? Hamden?

00:29:15
Speaker 11: Hey, My boss bet any money that I wouldn't call into the show, so I told him I wouldn't ask a question.

00:29:21
Speaker 3: We got to ask a question at Hamden.

00:29:24
Speaker 11: My question is who do you think has to step up like Marcus Lee did there in our run in twenty fourteen. I know we've talked about Brandon Garrison, but to me, it's Yellowvich. If he can hit, I agree with you.

00:29:34
Speaker 3: For me, it's him. For me, it's it's he changes the offense. Because with him, here's the thing about Yellovich. With him, then you you have a shooting thread outside, which allows you to play Diabayte if you need to, Malachi if you need to. And Garrison doesn't have to play if he's not playing bad. When Yelovich is hitting shots, it changes the entire ability of our to score. Now, he can't be a dud defensively, which he is sometimes, so he's got to like be you know, decent enough defense so that we can have him to make threes.

00:30:13
Speaker 11: Completely agree, Completely agree. He's got the link to do it. It's just he likes his footwork sometimes, is what I said. He's watching at home.

00:30:20
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I appreciate the call. He's actually sometimes can stay with his man outside. He just gets bullied inside. And that's where he's got to get better.

00:30:30
Speaker 4: You know, a couple he said after the game of the day, kind of called out a couple of his teammates and kind of called him out for being selfish, kind of called him out. And you know, fatigue is not a factor. Okay, now's your chance, but step up and help put that team on your shoulders.

00:30:41
Speaker 3: All right, It's wild eggs Wednesday. It is which means you have a word. Ryan uh said his word and I was like, that's terrible. So I picked the word yes she did to make it harder. What are we putting it on? It's on Twitter under KSR the show. All right, it's going up now. First response wins fifty dollars from Wild Eggs. It was a word chinning that Ryan couldn't even spell.

00:31:07
Speaker 2: Oh boy, are you sure it's gonna have the right letters and the right amount of letters?

00:31:12
Speaker 3: Well that's a good point, Mark, did you check the spelling before.

00:31:16
Speaker 2: You did it?

00:31:17
Speaker 5: You know what happened last week?

00:31:18
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, just another of our horrible contests.

00:31:24
Speaker 2: I was suggest that we just do bam. It would be really easy.

00:31:27
Speaker 4: I think we should have gone with that, you know.

00:31:29
Speaker 3: But you guys, so it's a Wild Eggs Wednesday, that's your chance. It just went up. It's wingsday at ks bar, so if you watch the game, you could also get dollar wings.

00:31:37
Speaker 4: I bet it'd be a great environment to today go out there.

00:31:40
Speaker 3: Yeah, everybody's got to get up and go. And I keep get confused what time it is? It's ten forty five because we started early, right and we're getting in a car here in fifteen minutes and heading down the rope, heading down the road. What if they lose on the way, we can't. Don't even say it. No, we're not turned around there. Yeah, it's time to score big this month at Don Franklin. Over six thousand new and certified pre owned vehicles go the distance with Don Franklin's power train protection slam dunks deals all month long, Don Franklinado. If you need parts, need replacing, it's Don Franklin. Scored bigger online. Don Franklin Driven by family. Let's go to Joe, go ahead, Joe.

00:32:21
Speaker 6: Yeah, Matt Dulph High School. We had a player that played for US in ninety six that went to Dulphs High School where he transferred from oh House.

00:32:32
Speaker 8: Stay.

00:32:33
Speaker 3: Yeah, we mentioned him. Derek Anderson. We mentioned it, Derek Anderson.

00:32:37
Speaker 6: Yeah, Okay, I was just wanting I didn't hear that.

00:32:40
Speaker 3: Okay, thank you, appreciate it. Joe, go ahead, Joe, Hey man, how you doing good.

00:32:48
Speaker 14: I'm the last I'm the last guy to take up for Platino. I still can't stand him, but it's worth noting that he's going to hire another GM. That GM was fired by the university after like a month long investigation into some weird finances stuff to say, Okay.

00:33:04
Speaker 3: I didn't know. So he said, he said he's going to hire another He's going to hire another guy.

00:33:08
Speaker 12: In Yeah, yeah, that's all.

00:33:10
Speaker 14: I didn't know that Patino hired Hid left in the brass gunder a little bit of you know.

00:33:15
Speaker 7: Health issues flash.

00:33:16
Speaker 6: He was about to get fired.

00:33:18
Speaker 14: And and Patino essentially said, I can't talk about it because it wasn't my decision. The university fired him, but we're going to be looking as soon as a season.

00:33:27
Speaker 3: N didn't know that makes sense, all right. I'm actually glad to hear that. I appreciate the call. I mean, not that he's still bunny, but that maybe that'll make Pope get one. We'll take a break if I'm nine two eighty seven, come back. It's Kentucky slect Chevy Dealers KSRR pregame. Welcome back, Tucky Slegt Chevy Dealers KSR A pregame show. I just I can't get this geography right. So the the bar next to the airport or the plane crashed is Stooges, which is apparently the sister bar to Hoops. Yeah, Stooges.

00:34:00
Speaker 5: I've been to all of them.

00:34:01
Speaker 3: So where's the new Hoops now? Now?

00:34:03
Speaker 2: I'm totally Strawberry Lane.

00:34:05
Speaker 3: Strawberry Lane, which is nice. I guess I'm not going to dare say what part of town it's he Kentucky's now a nine and a half point favorite. Opened at six and a half, now to nine and a half.

00:34:17
Speaker 4: It's a lot of points for a team you had to have a miracle to beat earlier this season, but you were on their floor.

00:34:22
Speaker 3: They, as you've said many times, they had a lot to play for, but now they're not making the tournament, so they got less to play for now. I want their season ends today. It ends today. If we beat them, they can all get in the portal, and they probably will. They probably will go ahead, Chris.

00:34:43
Speaker 8: Matt, This is Chris Harvey. I am a proud Dolls High School graduate. All right, I wanted to give you some facts. Okay, quickly opened in nineteen sixty seven, about eleven hundred students. Its nickname is the Dragons Colors, Burgundy and Gold. Famous alumni Dwight Whitton at wh as Oh Wow dead.

00:35:37
Speaker 3: So there you go, my school there, Well, there you go. I appreciate you giving some Doss facts. Doss Dragon's a good name. Is a good appreciate to call. That's a good name, Doss Dragons. If I were opened the high school, and I would have no reason to ever do that. If I were going to do that, I would want to give it a unique nickname, Mike, I like last night. Hofstra's nickname is the Pride the good know that Offstra Pritt. What's mamouth?

00:36:01
Speaker 4: I don't know.

00:36:01
Speaker 3: The Long Island. The Long Island are the dolphins.

00:36:06
Speaker 5: I don't think what mamouth is. It should be the mammoths, monmouth mammos.

00:36:10
Speaker 3: That would be great, though, that would be great. I think Long Island they do the fins up.

00:36:15
Speaker 4: Have you seen that he's Marles from Long Island's shaking?

00:36:19
Speaker 3: You know that they now they've started this new thing where where Long Island where they they're about to shoot a free throw and they go fins up and they all make the safety thing on top of their head.

00:36:29
Speaker 4: I can't.

00:36:30
Speaker 3: I kind of like that. I do too. It's really stupid, but it's good. Madison, go ahead, Madison. Rod Strickland coaches Long Island former Kentucky assistant. They're in the tournament. Yes, look, Dave Baker just in here yelling like, yeah, you don't even have a microphone. Dave. By the way, we we we support you to day. Let's go Madison.

00:36:49
Speaker 14: Hey, y'all, we're in Nashville. We're hot, we're so excited. But honestly, you still can't get that head at that game out of my head in twenty and three when we lost it was terrible. Last I we're in Nashville, but we're gonna win this.

00:37:04
Speaker 3: We're already breaking the appreciated Madison. We're breaking the mic streak. We're breaking the Madison streak. And I think a woman named Mikey Madison won the Oscar last year for a noor. It's all coming together there we go. Remember eight minus.

00:37:22
Speaker 2: Five five is three No eight bouns three is five five and five d eight five and.

00:37:26
Speaker 3: Five eight minus three is five. Kelly, go ahead, Kelly Kelly. When we lost, Kelly Kelly should have had some cornbread Hemp go to cornbreadhimp dot com promo code KSR. Cornbread Hemp is where you get gummies and topical oils to rest and relax and get yourself ready for your night and get sleep. It is cornbread Hemp and cornbreadhemp dot com. There's no better way to get yourself ready to relax and sleep than cornbread Hemp. Let's go to Jared go ahead, Jared.

00:38:00
Speaker 8: Hey, Matt So.

00:38:02
Speaker 15: Earlier this week they released the All Americans list, and like many Kentucky fans, I noticed that yackxell is on that list aslong as Caleb Wilson. Yes, and it was a little bit of salt in the wound knowing that we were about to get both of those guys and then we didn't correct. My question is Mark Polk seeing that he lost to All Americans. I mean, at what point does he say, I can't do this recruiting thing. I need a little bit of extra help. I'm getting a GM. What point does he say that I mean.

00:38:33
Speaker 3: It all depends on how a person internalizes mistakes, right, So I appreciate the call for me. When I don't have some sort of success, I sit there and think, Okay, what could I have done differently? What went wrong? That's one way to do it. The other way to do it is to blame things and act like, well, not my fault, it was this or their agent or this team or whatever. I think it's much more productive to look at yourself and not beat yourself up, but go what could I do differently? Or you can say it's everybody else's fault. I think the best leaders internalize and try to make it better. I hope Mark's one of those. I think he kind of is. But let's see the.

00:39:19
Speaker 4: Color asked when should he have done it? It should have done it over a year ago, have somebody in place to.

00:39:23
Speaker 8: Do but he.

00:39:26
Speaker 3: But you know, my view is I don't really care how he manages his program so long as it works. The problem is right now, in terms of getting players, it's not working. Yeah, So Mike, go ahead, Mike.

00:39:39
Speaker 9: Okay, I called in earlier and I got cut off. I guess. But here's my question post to you guys. What makes you think that this team is going to be mentally prepared for this game today when they haven't really been except for a few games this year. What makes you think they're going to be prepared.

00:39:56
Speaker 3: I don't know, nothing, nothing make But they were prepared for two games against Tennessee, and they were prepared for a game against Vandy. I don't know. I'm not I mean, I can't say that.

00:40:09
Speaker 9: They were prepared for that game. They were motivated.

00:40:12
Speaker 3: I appreciate it. I appreciate the call. I think they're probably motive. This is the tournament community, I got it. Know, if you're not motivated for this, what are you gonna be motivated for? I mean, I don't know that they're gonna be motivated. I have no idea. But I also don't know that they won't. We have no way of knowing. This team is completely unpredictive.

00:40:30
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what I'm saying earlier.

00:40:31
Speaker 3: There's no way to know what team you're gonna get tonight tomorrow, or there's just no way to know.

00:40:36
Speaker 4: They could come out lights out today and then stink it up tomorrow. You just don't know what this team's gonna be.

00:40:41
Speaker 8: Like.

00:40:41
Speaker 3: With that said, it's time to be a game for DraftKings. Bet five dollars you win two hundred dollars on Draft Kings. Go to DK get the app promo codes KSR. I'll start with you, Shannon, since you're not usually on the Kentucky Select Chevy Dealers KSR pregame. What's the cour what's score?

00:41:00
Speaker 3: All right, you're MVP.

00:41:01
Speaker 2: Well on our group chat, I picked the bang this twins since they always twins.

00:41:05
Speaker 4: All right, perfect, right, Ryan, It's gonna be a close game, and I like the under in this game on point total, so I'm going to those seventy four seventy three. I'm going to take it like a one point.

00:41:14
Speaker 3: Rock fight most of the game. Kind of ugly game most of the game.

00:41:17
Speaker 4: Malachi Marino carries over in the Nashville against LSU Malachi Marino, all right.

00:41:23
Speaker 3: I'm gonna say Kentucky eighty to seventy two. With the Nashville theme. I'll take what's the what's the one bar that's not a New Country bar? There, Roberts, is that the last one left from back in the day. Tutsi's yeah, that's still those kind of legends. Sorry.
