Kentucky Sports Radio, brought to you part by the T.J. Smith's law office called T.J., what happened, Shannon? He'll make them pay. We got Ryan Drew and Shannon T. Dude, did you heard right there? Of course, our Clark's Publish out phone number will be open today. 8-5-9 2802287 and the A Vision and Glass text machine Drew is

5027-35-3680 Yes there we go We are like I said at KS Bar and Grill today It is Wings Day We'll open the doors here in about an hour for lunch So come on out and get your dollar wings dollar per wing Not all your wings for a dollar dollar per wing But we've got a lot of talk about today

A newsy afternoon now if we cut off the show yesterday And of course the big story was SEC football schedule We already knew, Drew, our three common opponents for the next four years was South Carolina, Tennessee, and Florida. The next four years, they're going to be on the schedule. But then they came out with the rest of the schedule, and there's some quirks in it. I think it'll be fun to talk about some of the quirks in it. Like, for example, they're going to play at South Carolina three in the next four years.

Playing at South Carolina Saturday? Playing out South Carolina again next year. Yeah, I thought we'd get away from some of the common ones to welcome things like an A&M and others that we'll get to, but that was one of the early surprises to keeping that going, but they are one of the permanence. But the flip side is Florida is playing here in Lexington three in the next four years. You got Florida at home this year, Florida at home next year.

And hopefully like this year we can get them in November. We'll see how that goes. This upcoming game, it's the first time that's happened since like the 80s. But if they're going to give us Florida at home, I hope we can get them as cold as possible. So what the SEC did, they came out with your opponents over the next four years. They've not set the date to the times or anything, just your opponents. And since they're now going to the nine-game schedule, one year you're going to have five home games.

The next year you're going to have four home games, then five and then four. So the years that they've got four home games, that's when Louisville will be home. They have five home games. That's when the Louisville will be on the road. You like that? Yeah, yeah. My big takeaway was just, like we know that the teams, the SEC your heart and we know we're about to play them all eventually we knew this was coming but when

that came out and just the visual of all those logos it was just like oh my god what a gauntlet kentucky has to go through coming up none of it was surprises that you're going to have Alabama and lSU and in texas again we knew that was coming but just seeing it handed to us some of the stuff that kentucky's have to go through coming up was just kind of like a wow moment for me yesterday how things have changed it's not it's not getting those teams from the east every year anymore it's we're playing like I don't want to get too far ahead but on the other one of the years it's just an absolute murderer's role of teams and it was just a big wow

seeing it all put together last night on that show Shannon it is kind of sticker shock like Drew said when you see who you've got to play this year like okay let's look at next year like oh that doesn't get any better it's kind of like you do have like sticker shock that's life in the SEC you just got to get used to it going to nine games in the SEC now and you're just looking at some of the teams you got to play

I don't know are they going to keep these in order as they are on the graphic? Like, will we start with Florida, then go ahead? So it could be in any combination. Yes. So, because I was looking going, okay, we don't want Alabama-LSU back-to-back. So there's a good chance that it won't be like that. So I think, depending on how it is aligned and who you play when, I mean, that could also

make it either more difficult or maybe easier depending on the order that you play them in. We were just so used to it for many years. And for many years, the West was a lot more dominant. I mean, we had Florida and, you know, I guess Tennessee's, at our number a while, but these were still a little easier. And then our permanent was Mississippi State. Couldn't have asked for a better part of it. So, yes, every once in a while Alabama would come to town,

or every once in a while you get the LSU game, and that was fun. But now they will just give it to you all at once. Like this upcoming season, hosting Bama and LSU. Yeah. Two of the biggest logos in the SEC, and we've never really had that. It's never been that way before, but that's what we're going to have to buckle up and get used to. That's why, as you called it, sticker shock yesterday, it was just kind of like, oh, yeah, this is for real.

They're really mixing it up, and we're going to get everybody. So next year, they'll have four SEC home games, and Louisville will be home. So the four SEC home games are Florida again. We've got Florida this year, Florida next year, Alabama, LSU, Vanderbilt, and then they go on the road to South Carolina, Tennessee, Missouri, back to Texas A&M, and for the first time we'll play Oklahoma at Oklahoma next year. I think we got, that might be our best of the bunch. Alabama, who knows?

They could have a new coach. Who knows? Very true. Who knows what's going to happen with Alabama next season? They're obviously not loving Caitlin DeBoer right now. LSU will be good, but Vandy, hopefully Pavia won't have another, some kind of loophole where he can play in ninth season. Shannon was tooting the Vandy Horn on the pre-show today.

But they'll be probably hitting reset a little bit. And then Oklahoma, they still haven't quite figured out the SEC yet, even though they just got a big win. So next year, I actually don't hate it. It's the ones on down the road. And, you know, we don't know what those teams will look like either. But at least we're getting in Alabama where there might be some question marks. So they've got it set up where it's on a two-year rotation.

So these schools, we're just playing Alabama, LSU, Vanderbilt, at home, in two years, those will be the road games. And then at Missouri, at Texas, Annum, at Oklahoma, in two years, those will be the three home games out of that group right there. I do like how they do that. So every two years, you're playing each team home and away. Yeah, and the season after next, we get to go to Oxford again. I complained that there was like a 14-year drought where I didn't get to go to the grove during the years when you can really enjoy the grove, but the SEC's now, again, that'll end up being like three trips in six or seven years when you get to that. But it's the 2028 season that kind of had a little knot in my throat when that popped up on the screen where you go at Tennessee, at Alabama, at LSU, at South Carolina. there's not going to be a harder road schedule possible than that.

Not even knowing what those teams will be, but those are just four of the absolute toughest places to play, especially Alabama and LSU, and you're going to both of them. If you're a fan, Shannon, and you see that, makes you throw up. You're like, oh, my goodness. That is just, like Drew said, that's murder's role right there. You've got to hope that by 2028, some of these teams have just taken a big step back.

What's true? We had a guy that called in on the pre-show that said that Texas A&M hasn't played a football game in Kroger field since joining the S&S. That's true. Is that true? That's true. So 2028 will be the first time that will happen. 2028 Texas A&M comes to Kroger Field for the first time and then in where's the Oklahoma home game? The Oklahoma game? That's also in 20208. It should be the same. So Texas A&M and Oklahoma make their first appearances in Kroger Field both the same

season in 2028. I mean you know fans fans love that you know especially fans from opposing teams if it's a game in October they'll come up and go to Keenland, go to the football game. I look forward to Texas A&M and Oklahoma coming in, to be honest. I'm surprised they waited so long to get A&M here. I don't know why they didn't just flip it. I mean, we've only been to A&M once. It's crazy they've even played one time since they've been in the conference.

That one was a little surprising. Also, you mentioned that Gauland, it's not just that the teams are hard. Those are trips you want to make, and not a lot of people can pack up and go to Baton Rouge one week. Then the next week hit Tuscaloosa, and, you know, Tennessee, the others are involved. I mean, there's some jam-pack road trips in these, whereas ones we've wanted to do forever. They're bucket list trips in there, especially in 2020, 2008. They're so thrown together. It's just going to be tough being a fan to hit them all.

So just looking at the schedule, do you prefer the 26 and 28 lineups or the 27-29 lineups? I'm a one game at a time guy. I'm just looking at 2026. I like that out. We've still got 2025 to go through yet. Yeah, I know. That's true. One game in time in South Carolina.

but just for this exercise with the years. I like what we have next season, and we'll worry about on down the road later because, you know, who knows what Alabama will be? A lot of these teams are hitting reset next year and you're getting them at home, and then, of course, the three regular opponents are what they are. Shannon, what about you?

Yeah, I guess next year, being able to host Alabama and LSU, not that playing at home has really been to Kentucky's advantage at all, but, you know, if you're looking at just the big-time programs coming into Kroger Field, I like Alabama and LSU coming next year. You know, the fact... It could be John Somerals, Alabama coming into Lexington. That's true, or John Summorrow's Florida. Or others.

Your Florida is your common opponent, you're kind of catching them at a good time. You know, they may be a couple years before they get back on their feet again with if they make a coaching change and everything. So you've got Florida at home three in the next four years. As a lifelong Kentucky fan, it's weird to not even really fear the Florida game anymore, but that's kind of the spot we've been in with how things have turned lately. Going back to when Stoops first broke the streak, I mean, Florida is still tough. and you count all the winds you can, but we've been spoiled to have a little more

in the last five or six seasons. They've been three in the last six, I think. Yeah, and South Carolina, you're stuck with them again for the next four years, and they've kind of had your number in the last couple years. Maybe things can turn around this weekend if you catch them at the right time, but you've got to go on the road one of the toughest environments in the conference to play at South Carolina three in the next four years.

Yeah, but that's just, it is what it is. I mean, we've been playing them forever. That's why the Florida, I don't even just gloss right over that. I've only known playing Tennessee, Florida, and South Carolina. So those are just, that's nothing new to me. It's the, my eyes popped a little bit, seeing LSU and Alabama, listed next to each other. Hopefully they'll list them back to back.

Hopefully they'll space them out, yeah. But at least on the graphic, there is a, oh, okay. And then that year in 2020, when you've got to play on their field at Alabama, at LSU, at Tennessee, then at South Carolina all in one season. How many of you, I don't get to go to many football games. I've been to a lot of the basketball.

How many of these have you actually done, the road trips? I've been to Florida, I've been to South Carolina, I've been to Tennessee, I've been to Alabama, I've been to Georgia, been to Mississippi State. So which one would you try to pull off that you haven't done? I've got to get to Baton Rouge. Well, I've still not been to Oxford. The last two years that we've been to Oxford, I've tried to go down there because Dane was playing,

and it just didn't work out with the Frederick Douglass schedule and our schedule here at KSR. If you're going to Oxford, you have to get your hotel, maybe the moment it opens. Yeah, because you end up staying an hour and a half away. not prepared. Shannon, what about you? What would you do? As far as what? The trips?

Yeah. For next year, well, we've been to Oklahoma, right? We've been there. I mean, we've been in the state of Oklahoma. Yeah. Not for a game. Not for a game, but we've been in the state of Oklahoma.

Texas A&M, I think, would be fun. You went to Texas at the N&M game, didn't you? I went to Texas. Oh, the Texas game, that's right. I've only done Nailon in Texas. I haven't done in Vandy. I feel like Nailon Stadium would just be too much. Like it's just too much orange, too over the top.

Their fans are crazy. I don't know if I would enjoy that. Texas A&M would probably be my pick for next year. I know the Kentucky fans that went to the Texas A&M game, Kentucky game down there, came back just raving how awesome it was. They were treated nice. The fans were great down there, even though they won, Kentucky lost the game.

They were really, I think, impressed by the graciousness of everybody down there. Oh, I loved Austin. That was just last season. I'm glad we get to go back here in a couple of years. I will do that one again for sure. I've never been anything like that. That didn't even feel like Kentucky athletics plays the same sport as that school. And that's no offense to the U.K.

I mean, Texas has all the money in the world. They're a big power. But that was an unbelievable game day atmosphere. And there's a lot of Kentucky fans down there, too, because we had never made that trip. So we carved out our own little spot for pre and post game. I really feel like the Texas game here at Kroger in a couple weeks. It's going to be the opposite. There be a lot of Texas fans there that weekend.

And it's Keenland. And it's Keenland. They're going to overtake the town. A lot of that burnt orange all over the place. So that's what I expect to. see. All right, so there you go. There's our opening segment talking about the SEC football schedule, 859-2802-287. We will make this to ask anything Wednesday if you want to. We've got to talk about Matt's Cincinnati Reds. We've got some other fun topics.

I can't wait to ask you this one question, though, Drew. So we'll take our break. Come back. Phone lines will be open. 859-280-2287. Ryan Drew and Shannon, this is Kentucky Sports Radio.

And in recognition of mental health awareness month, I'm bringing over a decade of my own experience in the mental health field and conversations with so many incredible guests. I'm talking. Trip Fontaine, Ryan Clark. Sometimes when we're in the pursuit of the thing, we get so wrapped up in the chase that we don't realize that we are in possession of the thing and we're still chasing it and we don't know when we've done enough. Because people scoreboard watch.

Life becomes about wins and losses. Steve Burns, Dustin Ross, because you find it important to be a good person while you hear on earth, or are you a good person because you're afraid? Because that's two different intentions, bro. Absolutely. And that's two different levels of trust.

I want you to just really be a good person. Join me, Keer Gaines, as we have real conversations about healing, growth, fatherhood, pressure, and purpose on my new podcast, Learn the Hard Way.

The question is, how do you conquer them? On Hurtle with Emily Abadi, we sit down with the most inspiring women in sports and wellness. Professional athletes, coaches, and Olympic champions to talk about the challenges that shaped them and the mindset that keeps them going from the WMBA standout Kate Martin and rising hockey star Layla Edwards. If a boy can do it, I don't see why a girl can't.

Like, I've never understood that. Like, it didn't make sense in my brain. It's hard to be in spaces that no one looks like you, but don't ever feel like you don't feel like you don't feel on. Don't let that be the reason you don't do it. An Olympic champs Gabby Thomas and Katie Ladeke. The ability to show a gold medal to someone and have their face light up and smile, that means the world to me, and that's what motivates me to win more gold medals.

At our level, at this scale, like being able to fail in front of the entire world. Like, I can do anything. I can do anything. Because resilience isn't just about winning. It's about showing up, even when it's hard. Listen to Hurtle with Emily Abadi on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

It's Ask Anything Wednesday.

It's also Wingsday here at KS Bar and Grill. Drew, I got this one topic on here. I can't wait to talk to you about. I'm going to go ahead and get to it. I'm going to save it for later in the show, but I can't wait. We just went through with the whole SEC football schedule for the next four years. That's right. That's not the big story in the SEC.

Kentucky plays South Carolina Saturday. Down in South Carolina, big game. Mark Stoop doesn't like Shane Beamer. Shane Beamer doesn't like Mark Stoops. That's not the big story this weekend. Georgia plays Alabama. That's not the big story this weekend. The big story has to be

Ole Miss is getting ready to play LSU, and it comes out yesterday that Lane Kiffin's daughter is dating LSU's star linebacker with weeks. If you saw the Saturday down, South thing they had this summer about SEC football he was a big star that for LSU

Lane Kiffin's daughter remember said again daughter is dating LSU's star linebacker and they play each other this weekend in Oxford Fair or Fow Oh you know I'm a big fan of love

I love love and the heart wants what it wants So congratulations to the happy couple Come be a little awkward at home I was confused Lane replied and said take the over was his kind of statement when that came out. I don't really know what Lane was telling us with that. I think that means he's going to run the points up. Yeah, yeah, he's going to run over the defense.

Also, Whitweeks is a captain of. His daughter, Landry, they're very close. They TikTok together. They do get ready with me videos. They have a pretty big, Lane and his daughter have a big social presence on there. I wonder if maybe also maybe she's just kind of taking one for the team here and get a little bit of playbook. Oh, you think so. That's why she's really leaning in the over.

Maybe, I mean, dad's her first love, you know. Maybe, hey, dad, watch out for this. You know, they're going to be running this. I think there might be a little of that going on, too. Shannon? Well, we always talk about gamesmanship. I think this is gamesmanship on another level, is it not? But if you're wet weeks, I don't know.

If you want to rock the boat too much when you got Ling Kiffin, you're about to play. And, you know, like Drew just said, I mean, he may be running the score up on these guys if Old Miss gets a lead. So I like it, though. I like it. It's good controversy. It's good talking points for us.

I wonder, do you think Lane Kippen knew about this relationship before this week? I don't know. That's a great question. What do you think that he found out along with all of us? That's a great question. Yeah, well, she's secretly dating Witt Weeks to LSU linebacker behind his back, and then it comes out on game week. The week they play each other, they post the picture all snugly-bugly together,

and here we come. Go ahead. I'm just saying if you're him, I mean, there's a little. a lot of fish in the sea and your star football player at LSU this is a big gamble a rival coach's daughter i mean he's he's risking all with this one i mean this he is yeah this doesn't work out you know this one this one probably won't go away well so then LSU's got South Carolina after the shame Beamer have a daughter this last day sheembeamer's daughter next week you know well the uh that Saturday down south documentary they did on the cc football

he week's became a very likable character for LSU i mean they went to him a lot he was came across as a very likable guy he's obviously obviously one of the best players on their defense, but it is kind of a boss move to date the daughter of the team. You're getting ready to play this week. I mean, to publicly make it in the announcement you're dating the opposing coach's daughter. Yeah, the timing. And, you know, Lane trolls, like I said, his daughter always goofing off on the internet.

I would expect Lane knew about this, and the hard launch, as the kids call it. It was very intentional being this week. It had to be. I think everyone would be in on the joke. If not, Lane Be Wiley. oddly distracted here and probably a little over-motivated. I'd be checking Lane's emotions getting ready for this week if he truly didn't know his daughter was dating his opponent's star defensive player. So, Shannon, who's it more emphasis on Lane Kiffin trying to prove something to LSU or Witt Weeks trying to prove something to Lane Kiffin?

I almost lean that way. I think Witt Weeks kind of fired the first shot, so now it's on Lane Kiffin to respond. Like, wait a minute, you're dating my daughter. I mean, you can date, I guess, whoever you want, right? but I just think it's great that it's coming out the week of just a couple of days before these two teams play each other and it comes out. So I love it. I think it's great.

Oh, Lane's not afraid of an age gap. Does we have a sister or any relatives? He might need to watch out. Lane might fire back. That's very true. Oh, Joey Freshwater or whatever his nickname used to be. And I guarantee you he is going to try everything he can to put a lot of points on that LSU defense just to like prove a point to the future son-in-law possibly.

Not that we need another reason to watch this game because this is going to be an exciting game, but your outballs are going to look a little closer knowing what's going on behind the scenes, or no longer behind the scenes. Think about it like this. Let's say Whitweeks in LSU beats LSU and let's say that Whitweeks ends up marrying Lane Kiffin's daughter.

He's going to have this over his stepdad with the rest of their life. Every Thanksgiving dinner, Christmas, family get together, family reunion. He's going to be able to hold this over, playing kiffin's head what is vice versa what does she wear to the game where does she sit yeah

you sit where's your loyalty sit with dad and the fam you do one of those half jerseys well in that picture she probably does one of those half jerseys what if she sits on the old miss side with the family but wears a whit week's jersey that you can't do that that that's that's too far well she's sitting in his lap in this picture maybe she's

sitting on week's lap on the sideline who knows if she wears a whitweek's jersey she needs to be on the lSU side can't be sitting in the family seats wearing the guy's jersey. I don't even know if she would sit with the family or would she sit with Witt's family. I don't get how serious they are. I would assume Lane was in on this with the way it came out this week. Well, I liked his tweet where he said, take the over, because I think he's going to try to put a lot of points in.

So my question for you guys is, have you ever dated a girl that maybe was a Louisville fan or went to a rival school or anything like that ever? No, God. No. Did you date a girl in high school that went to a rival high school or another high school? No, anyone when I was a kid that said they dated the girl at the rival school, they were making them up. That was like, they're at the other school. My boyfriend, girlfriend, they go over there. We usually, you know, Madisonville, we're not like a big city where these schools are where.

We had our county schools, so I didn't date outside the circle. That is true. I could never date it to your original question. I couldn't fake it with a Louisville fan or a Tennessee fan. But we see it all the time. People that are married to a Louisville fan, they walk holding hands. We've got the Kentucky shirt on with the Louisville shirt on. They're holding hands.

And that's cute. No, I couldn't do it. Mine would be at home when you want to watch the game, and I don't want that on the TV. You can't watch the game together. We're not going to have a flag. I don't want to see your orange or red clothes. I couldn't do it. I know people pull it off, and they got their nice little house-divided bumper stickers and flags out front.

That's cute. But me personally, I couldn't do it. Shannon, Drew and I both grew up in rural areas. You grew up in the big city. You grew up in Mount Washington, Bullitt East. Mount Washington is not a big city. You're about to find that out next week. No, I didn't date anybody outside of Bullitt East.

All the pretty girls in Bullitt County went to Bullet East. You didn't date in Bullet Central or North Bullitt. All the good-looking women were at Bullitt East. This is the way Bullitt County is divided up. Now, I got to admit, the pickings were slim at Pike Central High School in Pike County, Indiana. So I dated a girl from a rival high school for a little bit. Was that trouble? It was just a little weird when we played that team, and she was sitting with her classmates from her school.

You know what I mean? What about when you were on the field? Was she supporting you or her high school? Her high school. That's what I mean. I thought you were saying like you said. We played that team. She set on the school of her high school.

What about when you all went to like a game that you weren't a part of or something? Did you mingle with that side or make her come over to your side? I mingled on that side. Any sports that you didn't play if you were going to something? Like we went to a football game and I went to her side a little bit. Is this the same girl that called in when we were at? at the Speedway? No.

T.J. Smith, personal injury attorney. Call T.J. He'll make them pay. Now, more of Kentucky Sports Radio presented by Stockton Mortgage. Here's Matt Jones. Podcast listeners can't hear that where Shannon played. I fell in love with the farmer's daughter. He fell in love with Lane Kiffin's daughter. Yeah, there's not a song that says that, unfortunately.

I told Drew during the break, I love everything about that story. I love the fact they waited until game weeks to come out. I love the fact she's sitting on his lap. I love the fact that Kiffin tweeted out, take the over. I love everything about it. And then you said there may be a reason for all this publicity. I think it's all marketing. He's got like, well, the game. I think

they have a documentary coming out. I mean, he and his daughter, they pop up on a TikTok all the time. This is just another lane doing something online is what I see. I would be shocked if that surprised him. I would say this is pretty choreographed. Not to take away your

excitement in it, but this is probably he was probably well aware that this was coming. The fact that they did it on Game Week, either. It was total on purpose or a complete setup, you know. Yeah, and I thought there's like a, I can't remember it's a 30 for 30 or there's some ESPN documentary online coming out like tonight or tomorrow. So, but the love is real though, Ryan. Oh, okay. I know you're a big believer in love.

Love is real. I just think the timing and all that is probably pretty choreographed. Who's this segment sponsored by Drew? Oh, it is sponsored by our friends at court physical therapy.

Clark's Publish Out phone number is open. 859-2-80-287. It's Ask Anything Wednesday. We've got a couple of callers we want to get to, Shannon. So who we got first?

Gene. Gene, go ahead, Gene. Yes, sir. We played Oklahoma at Commonwealth Stadium September the 18th, 1982. Oh, me dang. Claver and Spurs season. Okay. Very good.

I didn't know that. Go ahead. Yeah, but it wasn't Croger Field. You guys said Croger Field, but we did play them at Commonwealth Stadium. And we lost. Well, Gene, I appreciate that. My wife's due date was that day, and we were both there for the game. She was there on her due date.

Yes, she was. And she was the next weekend. She actually had the baby. We played either Kansas or Kansas State, and we tied that game. Jay Claiborne went 0, 10, and 1. I remember that season. And that was the game he tied. All right, I appreciate it, Gene.

Thanks with a phone call. All right, thank you. Fun fact, we lost 29. to 8. To Oklahoma? To that, we lost 29 to 7. To Oklahoma. At Oklahoma.

I didn't realize Oklahoma had ever played here. We got one point better. That's right. So with the home and home series, I guess, with Oklahoma. Yeah, 29 to 7, and we turned around and made it a little closer, 29 to 8. I could have predicted, I would have predicted that Oklahoma would be on our schedule. I just felt like next season. I just felt like with Texas these first two years where we would get Oklahoma then on this new rotation coming up.

Yeah, it's still, like going through teams, they still didn't feel like they're. during the conference. We haven't really had much of a connection to them other than the O-Way buzzer-beaters and basketball. We just haven't had that run in yet. That is true. Both basketball games this year, O-A beat them both times on a buzzer-beater,

including down at the SEC tournament, one of the best finishes in a long time. As Shannon mentioned this, we've been through Norman. I know their game day atmosphere is big, but of all the ones on my bucket list, I'm still much more excited to get to Baton Rouge. I know many Kentucky fans have already been there because we've played there several times,

but I haven't done that one. Tuscaloosa being on the schedule. We don't get that often. Well, the night game at LSU that Dennis Johnson was talking about yesterday when they kicked the last second field goal to win down in Death Valley at night and under the lights with a tiger being pulled around the field in his cage. That was a big win for the program back then. The one I remember is being down by 50 and Dorian Baker hitting a guy and flexing

and I was at home watching. Like, just come on home, we're down 50. Why are we flexing at LSU? That was not too long ago, but I wasn't able to pull that trip off. There was a game at LSU that Rich Brooks team. lost pretty bad, and that started a lot of the ditch rich and that other son of a blank. What did that say? Yeah, it wasn't very good.

But then they kind of rallied after that. That was kind of their last loss and they kind of rallied and got hot after that, I remember. Yeah, but good memories playing them here in Lexington. What, will we won the last two? Yeah, no kidding. Yeah, I enjoy hosting them a lot more than playing there, but that is one I want to get to in 2028. 859-2-287. Who's next, Shannon?

Dan. Dan. go ahead dan hey guys hope you all have a good day um a long time you tell you fam back from the days of uh

sunny collins and archdill and jimmie dan all them boys what i'm wondering is we started having this on TV every year of the big blue madness and this year

seems like it's going online again i want to know what happened there and i also want to give a shout out to my man. I'm from Hardin County. Go Mountain Bomba this year. We're all behind you. Trent, have a great year, man. And thank you guys for the call. Thank you. Appreciate the phone call.

Yeah, I think Trent is going to, I think, surprise people last year? They're going to surprise more people this year on the basketball court. Oh, he's going to make it impossible for him to sit on the bench. You know, when they built this roster, he looked like he'd be an odd man out, but as the summer workouts went on and the few practices we've heard from

so far, it's going to be impossible not to put Trent no on the court. Anytime they put out a highlight video, it seems they include him hitting a corner three in it, too. The TBT guys this summer talked about, and we asked them, you know, who were they most impressed with? Trent Noah was one guy they all talked about. And Pope said that just naturally in his system, what he asks of guys, there's always a huge jump from year one to year two. I mean, that's not unique to Pope's system, but he says especially in his, the way he coaches him, that there's still a lot of, you know, doing things for the first time as a freshman that's obvious.

but he said second year guys going back to his Utah Valley days. There's several examples of guys having big jumps in that one to two gap, and he expects that of Noah and Chandler this year. Well, that's why Chandler's been the guy you've said all along, you expect a big jump from him. Definitely. I think both of them. That's why the depth is so good.

It's going to be hard to guess who's really going to get the minutes or who's going to be standing out overall. But both of those guys as sophomores having really turned it on late in here, I mean, they hit some big shots in the tournament as freshman. I don't think there's any way they'll go off quietly and as sophomores, they're going to be in the mix. So since we're talking basketball, they've kind of leaked out some clips from practice.

I mean, I know we all get excited. We see the clips. We're just like a minute clips of highlights and stuff. Anything you're take away, anything that you've seen so far? On Monday, I mentioned this, but Malacow Marino had a pretty filthy dunk. That's another one that just because of the roster construction and him being a freshman in so many bigs, I wondered about him.

I know he's a freshman All-American, but you think, is he going to be like 13th? But in the clips you see, he and Garrison have been going at it. You still got to get Quentin's healthy, and Yellovich is just getting here. But of watching the practice clips, that stood out to me. There's been a lot of good Chandler highlights of the notes and things we hear. The most exciting is just that low, any concerns people had about low, you can kind of dial back your any worries a little bit.

It's looking like he's going to be really good at running the show. Him and Oway as a 1-2 and whatever you put around him. It could be about as good as anything. Yeah, Jeff Goodman said that when he was on with us, like him, he said, make no mistake about it. This is Lowe's team. He's the leader. He's the floor director.

They're going to go as he goes. Yeah, and it was no secret when they got him out of the portal that they had two other guys that they were going after first. It was, you know, covered pretty well. You lose one to UCLA, and it kind of looks like he's a third option. And then people bring up his efficiency numbers at Pitt and how the team stunk. So there were some people when you get low, you're like, oh, it's this really going to work out. but since he's been on campus, we've heard nothing but great things about him as being a leader and just a point guard

and that the efficiency stuff will be a little better now that he actually has good players around him. Let's go back to Clark Publish up phone line. Shannon, who we got? Dennis. Dennis. Dennis. Yeah, I want to know how the SEC football did such a whole, for example, beautiful job of next year's schedule. For example, we've got to go to South Carolina back to fact. years.

Florida has to come here back and back years. I don't understand why they well appreciate it, Gene, and it is kind of a quirk in the schedule. They had already made the schedule up for the last two seasons where we kind of had the home and home with these teams not going to change.

They had to redo everything starting next season with the four common opponent, the three common opponents for the next four years and it's just kind of a quirk where they got Florida at home in back-to-back years and on the road at South Carolina in back-to-back years. Yeah, I'm sure they did whatever they could. I mean, this is not an easy task, and they just hit a hard reset. They didn't really consider recent.

Yeah. They wouldn't have Old Miss next year if they consider recent. We've done it a lot lately. This was a complete hard reset because we think about what Kentucky's done recently. I mean, do you know Florida? Do you know Alabama? Do you know these other schedules? I mean, this is one big puzzle piece they had to put together, and I can't imagine

there was a perfect solution to make it completely fair across the border. or they would have done it. That's a good way to put it. It was a hard reset. They didn't consider what had been happening in the last two seasons. They had to completely, because they're added a nine-game schedule. Yeah, I mean, and South Carolina coming here back, is that the worst thing? I mean, we play them every year.

It's just, this is a brand new thing they're starting up. They couldn't have gone team by team and said, oh, you went there last year? Well, we can't do that again. That would have been impossible for every team in the league. I know at Kentucky we say, oh, we just did that. Every school probably has a couple of those. It's not easy to build this. Yeah.

You look at the schedule. Probably there's every school that are repeated a game from the year before. They've been working on this quite a while. I'm going to assume they did the best they could and probably had a lot of brains in that room. Get another call, Shannon. Who we got? Aaron.

Aaron, go ahead, Aaron. How are you, Aaron? I'm good. I'm at work. Just now turned John on. I've been busy all morning blowing off leave. But what do you think our chances are going to Columbia Saturday and winning? My prediction, I think we go down at least coverage.

for if not win. Well, appreciate, Aaron. Hold that thought because JoJo Kemp's here. In the whole second hour, we're going to talk about South Carolina. He knows a little bit about how to beat South Carolina. I'd say he knows a lot of bit. So Jojo is here. We're going to talk a lot of football in the next hour, so we'll get to that question a little bit.

So let's take our break. We'll come back, go back to the phone line for one more segment. Then Jojo's going to join us. He's here. He's over and whether he was going to make it or not. By 11 o'clock was not good. He made it. He made it early.

Got his cat's gear on, too. We'll take our break. Come back. this is Kentucky Sports Radio. Last night, a blown call changed a game. This morning, the internet lost its mind. Highlights are trending, opinions are flying, and nobody's telling you exactly what happened.

On Hurtle with Emily Abadi, we sit down with the most inspiring women in sports and wellness, professional athletes, coaches, and Olympic champions to talk about the challenges that shaped them and the mindset that keeps them going from the WNBA standout Kate Martin and rising hockey star Layla Edwards. If a boy can do it, I don't see why a girl can't. Like, I've never

understood that. Like, it didn't make sense in my brain. It's hard to be in spaces that no one looks like you, but don't ever feel like you don't feel on. Don't let that be the reason you don't do it. An Olympic champs Gabby Thomas and Katie Ledecki. The ability to show a gold medal to someone and have their face light up and smile, that means the world to me. And that's what motivates me to win more gold medals. At our level, at this scale, like being able to fail in front of the entire world. Like, I can do anything.

I can do anything. Because resilience isn't just about winning. It's about showing up, even when it's hard. Listen to Hurtle with Emily Abadi on the IHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts for wherever you get your podcasts. Presented by Capital One, founding partner of I Heart Women's Sports. Jacob Kingston grew up in an isolated polygamous sect. We were God's chosen kingdom on earth.

He felt destined for greatness. So when a swaggering Armenian businessman catapults Jacob into an extraordinary world, he doesn't look back. Ferraris and Lamborghinis, private jets, meeting the president of Turkey. I'm Michelle McPhee, and this is one of the most shocking criminal conspiracies I've ever come across. When Jacob met Levin this went to a billion dollar fraud. But with two kings from entirely different worlds, just how long can their empire survive? The largest tax investigation in American history.

You need to tell me what you know. Is somebody coming after me? Jacob told Levan, you're ruining my life. Listen to Kingdom of Fraud on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. All right, welcome back, Kentucky Sports Radio. Ryan Drew and Shannon. JoJo Kemp's going to join us for the whole second hour. Talk a lot of UK football.

We'll get to all that. I feel like I just did half the show of them over here talking off there. Already talking about South Carolina. Corey Price is unbelievable. He is. He found the high school, my high school senior picture and Shannon Davis's high school senior picture. at the rival high school. Oh, wow.

Look at that. The thing that stands out to me is you both have the same haircut. That was the 80s, man. You get the hair, you fluff it back, wavy hair. Yeah, for sure. I had all kinds of hair back then. It looks like she's on a swing. At first I thought she was a golf caddy.

Like, she's holding a flag there. I didn't know what was going on. I guess she is on a swing. Good job, Corey Price. Cory Price. Cory, unbelievable. All right. You're just calling out high school sweethearts on there several years later.

By name. Shannon Davis. She was a naughty, naughty girl. All right. 859-280-2-8-7. That's our large public-shot phone number. Before Jojo gets here, let's go ahead and get our Reds segment out of the way. Because if Matt was here, we probably would have led with the Cincinnati Reds.

They going into last night, they were tied for the wild card, but they were going to actually have the edge because they own the tiebreaker against the Mets. All they did was go out and lose, and all the Mets did was go out and win. So right now, going into tonight, The Mets have a one-game lead over the Reds in that final wildcard spot. With five games left, Shannon, I believe, is that right? Five games, that's right, yeah, yeah. I still think all the pressure, I said this on the pre-show,

I feel like all the pressure is still on the Mets because the Mets have to win it outright. All the Reds have to do is just tie for the wild card, and they're going to get in. So I think it's still, you know, the pressure still rides on the Mets right now. ESPN, I'm looking at it gives them a 36% chance. Well, tonight, whether you're a baseball fan, I mean, a Reds fan or a Pirates fan or not, tonight's game could be awesome, because Hunter Green is pitching for the Reds,

and Paul Skeens is pitching for the Pirates. Oh, that's awesome, yeah. This is a Game 7-type matchup. Your two great pitcher, Skeens is like somewhere around two. Greens is just a little higher than that. These two guys have had a great season. I don't know what the over-under is on runs, but I'm going the under in this game,

because this could be an awesome pitching duel. That means a lot for the Reds. Do you think the Reds get it done, though, with Skeens being on the other end? Hunter Green has been awesome, Shannon. I mean, if there's one pitcher you want going against Paul Skeen's that's Hunter Green, but since then he's offense is just not the most potent. So I would probably bet the under and bet Pittsburgh.

Well, I mean, we touched on this a little bit yesterday. I mean, the schedule plays into the Reds favor. It does. The Pirates. Not with Skeens. They should have gotten the one last night. That's the one you needed to get if you were going to get two out of three. This one's going to be tough tonight.

But then you've also got the Brewers coming up after the Pirates. The Brewers are already in the playoffs, so you have to think they're going to be playing a lot of their backups. Sure. I feel like the Reds have a good chance of getting in. You said you're going under. It's a low number. It's seven.

You still going under seven? I probably still would in this game, because this could be like a two-to-nothing type game between Skeens and Hunter Green. What do you feel like tonight? I'll be rooting for the Reds. I caught a little bit of last night. You know, they've been, kind of had them back in like many people. That was pretty disappointing.

I have a lot of Reds friends. The group Texas is going crazy. I think they get it done tonight, but without any real analysis behind it. Shannon's kind of a secret Pittsburgh Pirate fan. He's got a hat. I've seen it. I'm not a secret fan. They're my secondary team, but the Pirates don't have a chance to make the playoff.

So I'm pulling for the Reds to get in. I just really like chaos, and I want them to get in while Matt's on a zebra's back with nine women and can't watch the game. You know he woke up this morning and immediately went to the box score to see how they did. Sure did. Well, how did he do it? He immediately went to the front desk and said, do you all have a newspaper? I need to check the Reds score. I think that's what he did.

But it's on his mind for sure, and it's killing him that they got hot right as he left. This happened last year when he went to wherever he went all over Europe. And then Kentucky baseball gets hot and goes to Omaha. So this is what his baseball teams do when he goes international. I don't think that's a coincidence. The baseball UK team went to the World Series, and now the Reds have a chance to go to the playoffs when he's out of the country. Yeah, so I'm rooting for that chaos. We need to tell you tomorrow we are at Ham Days in Lebanon

We were down there last year We're going back this year It's located right there in downtown Lebanon But I guess we got a little controversy going on Because instead of doing a haybell toss We're doing a hog calling contest We aren't doing anything Shannon what's that we got a message last night

From Billy that says we're all calling the hogs tomorrow Calling the hogs I blame Billy on this whole thing Billy won the haybell toss last year And now he's two chicken to defend that So he called up the people at Ham Days, and he said, please come up, create any kind of contest you can, just so I don't have to defend my little trophy

that I carry in my back pocket everywhere I go. So they decided to come up with a hog-calling contest, and I'm not so sure that any of us really want to do it because it's a very Arkansas Razorback thing to do. I make fun of Cal for calling the hall. I don't know if you'll notice. We're in a bit of a rivalry with Arkansas. They even mail us their Razorback Nuggets here occasionally.

I think if we go on the air and have a hog-calling contest, We're just giving them, you know, you want to, you want to do an L's Up contest too? You can sing Rocky Top the best? Like a cat calling contest. Billy says you can't do that. That's not politically correct to do a cat call. But I don't know. I say we all just like forfeit and Billy becomes the two-time champion of Ham Days.

And, you know, we know how much Billy loves this moment. Oh, yeah. He has the, I think the trophy's here now. I've seen my car. Okay. It's the only thing he's ever won. I know. So why don't.

So why don't we just, we let Billy call the hogs. He's the two-time ham because we love Ham days. This is nothing against them. Very true. But I just can't be hog-calling on KSR. That's what we make fun of. Now, the way Arkansas calls the hogs is not the way you call the hogs out on the farm. Okay.

So I think that's what we're supposed to do. We're supposed to do the way you call hogs out on the farm, not in Arkansas. All right. I just, sometimes I think our self-awareness needs to get a little higher and, you know, we make fun of hog-calling. You know? Am I wrong? I may be the only guy who's actually called the hogs. Well, how does it go?

Tell me, because I only know their way. Here's how. Get your practicing. Okay, if you're on a farm and you're calling the hogs, it's like this. Sue! That's what Arkansas does. Am I crazy? Isn't that what Arkansas does that?

Pig, suey. I mean, same thing. Pig, suet. That's how they did. It's not right. Okay. But we're still suing in both of them. You're still suing.

Okay, I'm not to sleep on this one. I feel very uncomfortable. I would rather throw the haybells again or anything. Well, I put the haybell trophy in my car to make sure we can have it for Billy's humble brag when we're down there tomorrow. He may walk by home with two trophies now. I tell you, I'm excited to get some of the country ham down there, though. I'm still figuring out my hog-calling situation. That is one of my favorite places to go.

So come see us tomorrow. We'll be at Ham Days in Lebanon. Last year it was raining, so we went inside the gym there, the community center, the gym right there. So we'll see what the weather does, whether we're going to be inside or outside. We were just down in Lebanon at the cornbread hemp fields down there. So we're going back. Johnny Rocker country. Johnny Rocker is a sponsor of the show tomorrow. Johnny Rocker role player of the game has come up.

It's a huge hit on the KSR pregame show. He gave us those nice bottles of bourbon last year. Mario wears his Lebanon shirt like every other day that we got last year. So Mario is the most excited. So come on out and see us in Lebanon. And then Friday, we're at Bywater Farm in Georgetown. So back-to-back remote shows this weekend, Thursday and Friday. It's another one we've done.

Seems like forever. Love that show too. All right, well, take a break. We come back. Jo Jo Kim's going to join us. We're going to talk UK football. This is Kentucky Sports Radio. Another podcast from some SNL late night comedy guy, not quite.
