Welcome to hour two of Kentucky Sports Radio presented by Stockton Mortgage. Now here's Matt Jones.

[Drew Franklin]

Here's the thing about talking about your medical stuff on here is we have a lot of people, I think this is a post Covid phenomenon who, who fancy themselves medical experts.

[Ryan Lemond]

A lot of doctors after a lot of doctors.

[Drew Franklin]

Like I don't even know why do we even have med schools now?

[Ashley Kineti]

Shannon, just go to the comment section. You'll find all the doctors.

[Drew Franklin]

Everybody is. Everybody's a doctor. And they're like. So some that like got people who write and go, matt, there's no way you could be on the air Thursday. Trust me. And then the other person goes, Ryan's nuts. You'll have a tough Wednesday night, but by Thursday morning you'll be ready. So I don't. Which one of those am I supposed to believe?

[Ryan Lemond]

They'll. There'll be a couple instances Thursday morning won't be like the bad one, but you'll have some instances Thursday morning could still run in its go.

[Drew Franklin]

Why should I believe you?

[Ryan Lemond]

I've done it twice.

[Drew Franklin]

Well, so have these people.

[Ryan Lemond]

That person, maybe it affected them different. I'm telling you how it affected me.

[Drew Franklin]

Okay.

[Ryan Lemond]

Yeah.

[Drew Franklin]

So it could affect me either way. Conceivably, right?

[Ryan Lemond]

Yeah.

[Drew Franklin]

Okay.

[Shannon The Dude]

My whole takeaway on this is, you know how we would always pop in on the shows that beat us? Do you think Ice and Rothman have popped over to see what we're talking about?

[Drew Franklin]

And this is right. So I like. Yeah, we used to pop in on Ice and Rothman and those shows.

[Shannon The Dude]

Whoever's number four peeking on this one.

[Drew Franklin]

Yeah, we could do number four. Although that's the guy I actually work. The guy that came in fourth, I work with sometimes on esp.

[Ryan Lemond]

Oh, you do?

[Drew Franklin]

So, yeah, his. It's Aaron. What's his name? Gold Hammer. Yeah, I've done shows with him on espn. He cut. He was fourth.

[Ryan Lemond]

Well, we kind of found out old Buck Rising is from Henderson, Kentucky, went to Evansville Memorial High School.

[Drew Franklin]

That's crazy. Well, just go Show Small World. 859280, 2287. The text machine is 772-7745, 2, 5, 4. Shannon, did I hear someone tell me that you're going to a super secret super bowl party? Is that right?

[Ashley Kineti]

Sort of, yeah. I mean, it's like. It's a public establishment, but.

[Drew Franklin]

What does that mean? It's. It's super secret.

[Ashley Kineti]

It's just for, like, regulars only. So it's not open to the public. It's just open for people who are regular patrons of this place.

[Drew Franklin]

But regular patrons of what?

[Ashley Kineti]

Of the bar slash restaurant.

[Ryan Lemond]

See, sounds pretty secret, secretive to me.

[Drew Franklin]

So. But. But I don't understand. So it's. It's a bar?

[Ashley Kineti]

Yeah, it's a place that, you know, like, you've been there. You've been there yourself?

[Drew Franklin]

I've been to this.

[Ashley Kineti]

It's in Louisville.

[Drew Franklin]

Okay. And so it's a bar that has, like, people who go regularly.

[Ashley Kineti]

Yeah. And they. They cook and they do like, a whole. It's like free food and. But they don't want, like, everybody just coming off the streets and getting free food, so.

[Drew Franklin]

Oh, it's free food?

[Ashley Kineti]

Yeah.

[Drew Franklin]

So a bar just decides to close down and make a free party?

[Ashley Kineti]

Yes. Yeah. But if I say that on the air, then everybody's gonna be there, and I can't. I can't say. I can tell you off the air.

[Drew Franklin]

Okay. All right, so you can tell me what? What you could tell me off the air.

[Ashley Kineti]

Okay.

[Drew Franklin]

Well, I just thought it was. Yet you and Ryan have had this whole, like, crazy, you know, crazy, crazy party lifestyle here that we don't know about.

[Ashley Kineti]

It's not a speed easy.

[Drew Franklin]

Okay.

[Ashley Kineti]

Yeah.

[Shannon The Dude]

I don't really get jealous, but all these little parties they keep going to and they're bragging about it later.

[Drew Franklin]

I like, are you getting. Are you getting excited about the super bowl at all?

[Ryan Lemond]

A little bit. I. I think I'm gonna pick the Eagles, though. I think, you know, they're. They're mad. They've been there, what, a couple years ago and got beat by the Chiefs. Chiefs is an old hat for them. So I think I may be riding with the Eagles.

[Drew Franklin]

How about you not betting against Patrick Mahomes? Like, how many times do we have to do this? You cannot bet against Patrick Mahomes. Patrick Mahomes wins. So, like, if he. If he loses this time, then in the future, I'll consider betting against him. But I am not betting against Patrick Mahomes, Drew. Until he loses a game, and I don't believe he will lose this one either.

[Shannon The Dude]

I'm probably. I haven't made my commitment yet. I'm going to get through tonight's Ole Miss game, and then tomorrow is when I'm really going to lock in with all my props. I will have a billion props and all that, but I haven't. I haven't picked my lane yet if I'm going to be pro Eagles or Chiefs. Probably Chiefs, though. I'm with you. If you bet against the Chiefs and lose, then you just got to look in the mirror and call yourself an idiot.

[Drew Franklin]

Yeah, exactly. Because, like, they'll lose one day. Maybe it'll be Sunday. But are you going to keep banging your head against the table and saying they're going to lose, or are you going to keep going with him and then go, all right, well, one day I'll lose, but I will have won. Shannon, the 15 times before that I kept rolling with.

[Ashley Kineti]

Yeah, I'm not going to pick against the Chiefs, you know, against the Eagles. I would be proud Russia against the Philadelphia Eagles.

[Matt Jones]

Would you really?

[Drew Franklin]

Yeah.

[Matt Jones]

Yeah.

[Drew Franklin]

So quarterback Putin versus the Eagles. You're taking the comrade.

[Ashley Kineti]

That's right. Yeah. Anybody over Philadelphia?

[Drew Franklin]

Yeah, I just, you know, my home's. My home's there. And then you throw in all the other stuff that. That goes on with Kansas City. Yeah, y'all with the refs. I have to tell you, the ref thing, to me is the most played out thing I've ever seen. I mean, it like the way people. And I don't even. I'm not even really a Chiefs fan, but the way people will dissect every call and then when that. When their call goes against them, they're like, finally. I just think it's ridiculous.

[Shannon The Dude]

I just said it.

[Drew Franklin]

So you would do that, that that game was tied. One team went down the field and scored. One team did. Right. And, you know, and then people want to look for an excuse for it.

[Shannon The Dude]

One bet I can guarantee you I'm going to make is I'm going to parlay DeAndre Hopkins and A.J. brown touchdowns, because those are receivers the Titans let walk. And now they're both in the super bowl. So you can go ahead and bank on me betting on those.

[Drew Franklin]

We will have, like, a bunch of super bowl specials.

[Ryan Lemond]

Yeah.

[Drew Franklin]

We will put out. You can get. Well, you can come watch the game here or you can take the stuff home with you. We always give, you know, wing. We don't give them. We sell wings for people to take for their parties as well. Do you like watching the super bowl at a party?

[Ryan Lemond]

Yes.

[Drew Franklin]

You do?

[Ryan Lemond]

I do, Yeah. I love it.

[Drew Franklin]

Why do you like that?

[Ryan Lemond]

I don't know. Just kind of a community thing. I like it.

[Drew Franklin]

I like party you going to this year.

[Ryan Lemond]

Well, I think yoga girl and I are going to be going to a.

[Shannon The Dude]

Party with one of those, isn't it?

[Drew Franklin]

What do you mean?

[Shannon The Dude]

Like a bookshelf?

[Drew Franklin]

What kind of party?

[Ryan Lemond]

Her brother invited us to a party that we talked about last night. I think that's where we're going to go. Yeah.

[Shannon The Dude]

Is it one of these hoity toity?

[Ryan Lemond]

No, no, no, no.

[Drew Franklin]

The way he said that though, Shannon made it seem like it was a different kind of the way he was like, well, yoga girl and I are going to a party. Well, good for you. I, I don't, I, I, I don't like going to watch because I want to watch the game. And everybody's like, you have to like play numbers. And that's what's fun.

[Shannon The Dude]

Oh, squares. I already got some good squares.

[Matt Jones]

Numbers.

[Drew Franklin]

I'm so much more social than I am. Leonard Hamilton is going to retire at the end of the year. I wanted to bring that up because he needs to. Right. I mean he's, he's been going a long time and his teams have fallen a little bit, but he also is a pretty legendary career and I think goes in the annals of UK basketball is probably one of the four or five best assistant coaches ever at this school. Like if you were to say, okay, who are the best assistant basketball coaches ever at uk? One of them is probably Joe B. Hall for his time, for his time with Adolph. I think then you would look at Leonard Hamilton and say, he's right there. You know, maybe you then go to like a aerobic in there at some point. He wasn't here very long though as an assistant.

[Ryan Lemond]

I think two years.

[Drew Franklin]

Yeah, no, I mean I'm talking about somebody who's here for a good period of time as an assistant and does things as an assistant. Patino's folks were always in and out.

[Ryan Lemond]

Yeah. Billy Donovan was only here a couple years.

[Drew Franklin]

So much so I don't know if there's a Patino person in. Is there a tubby assistant in that you thought was a really good tubby assistant? Oh, the one dude Sutton. Mike Sutton, Yes. I actually think he, he would be good on the list. And then for Cal, I mean, I think I put Robick on there, might put Orlando on there as well. But, but Leonard Hamilton, I mean there's an argument Leonard Hamilton could be number one on that list. Great recruiter like got Joby was recruiting the top guys because of Leonard Hamilton. I think we need to recognize his career here.

[Shannon The Dude]

Definitely. I'll add Jim O'Brien winning with Patino.

[Ryan Lemond]

For a long time.

[Shannon The Dude]

I remember him from camps, but you know, yesterday, just reading up on Leonard and looking at old pictures of him with Joe B.

[Drew Franklin]

He has not aged, but I didn't.

[Shannon The Dude]

Realize it was 50 years ago when he was the coach of Kentucky. 50 when he was on the sideline. That's wild that he was still coaching as long as he has and had that long career.

[Drew Franklin]

And if you look at the picture of him. Yeah, when he was here, he doesn't look that much different now. I mean, the man did not age and he had some good years at. He had. He really. I mean, he probably gave that team their best years outside of that year. Bobby Sur and Charlie Ward were on the team. He gave them some of their best years.

[Ryan Lemond]

He made Florida State basketball relevant where. Yeah, there were years where they were like a Final Four contender.

[Ashley Kineti]

They.

[Ryan Lemond]

I think they would get knocked off in the elite eight or sweet 16. But he, he made that football school, basketball school for a couple years and.

[Shannon The Dude]

Before there he had a good run at Miami where they were. They'd ca. Beat Duke in North Carolina when that was unheard of.

[Drew Franklin]

So congratulations to. To Leonard Hamilton and important part of UK lore. I don't know that he'll ever like have a jersey or something like that, but he probably ought to be in the UK Athletics hall of Fame. I do think that probably ought to happen at some point because I do. He is one of the three or four best assistant back. He's kind of the. For people that are young, he's the Vince of that era. Would you agree with that?

[Ryan Lemond]

That's a good way to put it.

[Drew Franklin]

He's kind of like Vince was. He was important in the 80s in, in basketball.

[Shannon The Dude]

Some of the national people that were talking about him, we're calling him one of the best recruiters in college basketball has ever had. I could see like any school, he's in the conversation totally could see that.

[Drew Franklin]

Who's next?

[Ashley Kineti]

Let's go to Doug.

[Drew Franklin]

Doug, how are you, Doug?

[Caller]

I'm doing great, Matt. Three things real quick. The third defensive player was always. You were the reason that Mark Maggard went out of business. And as far as.

[Drew Franklin]

Wait a minute, why was I the reason. Why was I the reason Mark Maggard went out of business?

[Caller]

Okay, I followed him, but not on his pay site. He was trying to go pay site and he was complaining because one guy name was Matt Jones was giving away all the information free.

[Drew Franklin]

Well, that's, that's. That is not True, but that's okay. And what's. What's your third thing? I was giving away information free, but that was because that was our business model. We gave everything free. But it wasn't like his. I don't even remember the name of his site, but go ahead.

[Caller]

He. He's. He did say that. And in the Super Bowl, Shannon said he would pull for Russia and Putin. Putin is also a side effect of colonoscopy.

[Ryan Lemond]

Joke of the day. Joke of the day. Joke of the week.

[Matt Jones]

Yeah.

[Drew Franklin]

The folks here can't hear it. I'm not gonna repeat. I'm not dignifying that with a repeat answer. Was they. Was. Was that a great job?

[Matt Jones]

Yes.

[Ryan Lemond]

It came out of nowhere.

[Drew Franklin]

I'm not sure if it was a great joke, but that's okay If I'm not. 280-2287. Who's next? Mike. Mike. Go ahead, Mike.

[Matt Jones]

Yeah, I wanted to see what you guys thought.

[Caller]

I've been thinking about it a lot.

[Matt Jones]

You know, y'all talking about the defense.

[Caller]

And while I agree it probably can't get better, I think it could be a lot better if he would cut that rotation down.

[Matt Jones]

And I also think that's why we're struggling in these unranked games. Playing some guys too many minutes, and I'm not dogging the kids.

[Caller]

I know they got to come along, but I think he's trying to bring.

[Matt Jones]

Them along too fast.

[Drew Franklin]

I agree with you. I mean, I think he's used to. If you go back again to his BYU days, and I appreciate the call. If you go back to his BYU days, he played a lot of people. That's what he did. And he played. He didn't play anybody more than 25 to 27 minutes. And I get that. And that's a philosophy. I think that is fine. But it's philosophy that's fine. Drew. If you've got 11 guys that can play right now, we've got six that are a lot better than everybody else, and we just need to play those six. And it might not be what he's used to. It might be not normal, but it, I think, is what we need to do right now.

[Shannon The Dude]

And I know he's trying to throw stuff together while they're so limited, but you got to find out an equation where three of your slowest defenders aren't on the court at the same time or three guys that aren't a threat to shoot. I feel like he's, you know, Chandler, Noah, those guys have to play. But I don't know that they have to play together as much as he's played him recently.

[Ryan Lemond]

That's it. I mean, I can see trying to steal some minutes to rest your starters a little bit here or there, but not all at the same time. I think that just the line.

[Drew Franklin]

This team is not a hockey line, Chase.

[Ryan Lemond]

Not a hockey line.

[Drew Franklin]

It's not. Valentine's Day is coming up. If you're looking for gifts for your special someone, how about Cornbread Hemp?

Yeah, you don't. If you do like me on Valentine's Day on Skyline, you don't have to take somebody. You can go by yourself. It's okay, right?

Welcome back. It is Kentucky Sports Radio 859-280-2287 here at the KS Bar and Grill. Getting ready Cats and Ole Miss game is at 7:00 tonight on ESPN. Another Jimmy Dykes game.

[Shannon The Dude]

Jimmy Carl.

[Drew Franklin]

I mean, how many Jimmy Dykes games does one person get? I like Jimmy.

[Ryan Lemond]

I do too.

[Drew Franklin]

I think he does a good job and I think he understands Kentucky's team, which is part of why I like him. It's like he sees us so much. He doesn't just say stupid stuff. And Carl's a nice guy, so I like that duo.

[Ryan Lemond]

And to be honest, the Kentucky Arkansas game the other night, Jimmy was able to kind of relay the emotion of what is really happening.

[Drew Franklin]

Yeah, I mean he coached here, right? So Jimmy understood, you know. Let me give you an example what Jimmy Dykes and Carl Ravage did, which I appreciated. They came up to me before the game and said, all right, tell me how you think this atmosphere ranks in terms of UK atmospheres. And I said, I don't remember another atmosphere like this in terms of like pre game. I said, the only two that stick out. I think were the UK Carolina in 2012 and then the Rick Patino return. But those were day games. This is a night game. So you have all night, all day to get rid of it or to get ready for it. And he, I think even maybe used that line on the broadcast. So I like that they care enough to kind of know the history of it, etc.

[Shannon The Dude]

He put out a tweet today saying it's the last time we'll have him for a while. So for all you Jimmy Dykes fans appreciate tonight, really like five in a row really said something weird like we don't block the shots or make the threes or guard or something. I don't know what he was really.

[Drew Franklin]

Saying, but yeah, I mean I'm sure he hears crazy. I think Jimmy does a good job. I really do. I think he. I have a lot of complaints about how ESPN covers college basketball, but I do like that they kind of sign announcers to conferences so that they know.

[Ryan Lemond]

Yes.

[Drew Franklin]

Talking about. Right about. About the teams.

[Shannon The Dude]

By the way, Damien Fish back on Saturday.

[Drew Franklin]

Was he there?

[Shannon The Dude]

No, no. This coming Saturday.

[Drew Franklin]

Oh, this coming Saturday.

[Ryan Lemond]

I want to say one more thing about Jimmy Knox. We're talking about. He had a really cool father moment where he did a game where his daughter was a cheerleade. It was at Tennessee. His daughter was a cheerleader maybe at Tennessee. And he was doing the game and you could tell he almost got a little choked up talking about it. I thought that was a good father daughter moment.

[Drew Franklin]

That's nice. Dick Vital is returning Saturday.

[Ryan Lemond]

Saturday.

[Drew Franklin]

So he's returning Saturday for Duke at Clemson. Might be the only time Duke has a chance to lose the rest of the year. So are you excited to have Dick Vital back? Baby hasn't done a game in a.

[Matt Jones]

Year and a half.

[Shannon The Dude]

I am. I'm someone that. And I've never disliked him. But I don't even say I got exhaustion. But you know, it got the. The dicky V stick got a little stale there for a while. But I've been missing him since the moment he's been gone. I saw he had like 40 something procedures. It is amazing that he's able to do this. So I will absolutely be turned into it.

[Drew Franklin]

That's what I love about it is that this dude. You want to talk about a person who loves the sport. My dude, that guy has been. I mean, how many times have we heard his cancer's gone. It's back. It's gone. It's back. He keeps. He wants to be doing this so much that like how can you begrudge it? How could you be anything but hoping? I know. I mean, when he was on every game, it would wear people out. But I think it's very cool he's back and, you know, I'll watch that game. I want to see him be back.

[Ryan Lemond]

That's the only reason I want to watch that game. For him to celebrate the moment with him. 40 procedures and he still loves it so much. He wants to come back and still do it. What a tough guy that guy is, man. I think I would be like, that's enough. Enough's enough. I'm out.

[Drew Franklin]

And we didn't talk about this because we lost the game. So the line wasn't as cool because we lost the game. But the, the game day thing where Andrea Carter made that line about you don't want to show up into the club with a downgrade and the way those people just didn't react with Seth. And that was, to me, the best epitome of why this generation of announcers needs to, like, change. Vital would be into it now. Vital takes up for coaches, but you never have to worry about his energy. And sitting there watching that Andrea make that joke and then just look at her, that was like, gosh, we got to get some fresh blood in this sport.

[Shannon The Dude]

That was the nail in the coffin for basketball game day football is. Can't miss Saturday morning's. I genuinely, I'm not saying this to talk trash. I don't think I'll be bothered to turn on college game day basketball for the rest of the year unless they're at Kentucky. Like, they off. I did not learn anything. I was not entertained. They're just sitting there all stoic. They're just like, that is not entertaining. I almost want to be like, free Andrea.

[Drew Franklin]

Get her some personality because she's for her. She was great on that. And they just look at her. It's ridiculous. Couple of lines. 859-280-2287 who's up next?

[Ashley Kineti]

Clayton.

[Drew Franklin]

Clayton, how are you? Clayton?

[Caller]

Hey, I'm good, Matt.

[Drew Franklin]

How are you guys doing? Good.

[Caller]

I'm trying to look forward to the rest of the season, but the Reed shepherd thing really bothered me. I grew up in Kentucky and Kentucky sports is something I share with my dad and I just feel like, you know, with Reed and his dad, it makes it bother me more because I'm from Kentucky, he's from Kentucky, and I'm trying to get over it but still struggling. So just wanted to get that off my chest and look forward to the rest of the show.

[Drew Franklin]

I totally get it. I mean, I understand why people are like that. I mean, whether they. Whether they, you know, I had a number of people write me yesterday and go, I don't think you also talk about the Reed shepherd thing anymore. People, you know, give him a break. I'm giving him a break, but I'm not the one. Like, there's a lot of fans that are upset. I. There's this idea out there that I somehow magically control people's emotions and that if I. If I say it, that they're gonna stop. I mean, let me.

[Matt Jones]

Let me.

[Drew Franklin]

Let me read you a message I got yesterday just along that lines. This. This is an actual message I got from a dude yesterday that gives you an example. Here's what he said. You are the worst thing that could happen to Kentucky basketball players, coaches and recruits. Read you all. And when BBN tweets, the criticism hurts their feelings and hurts recruiting. You are the reason people get mad at the players. I know of multiple players that feel that way, and there's a reason for that. Good. And I was like, you do you. If I had that kind of magic, don't you think I'd use it for something other than, like, hey, send negative play. I wouldn't. If you send a negative tweet to a player, you're a jerk. But that doesn't mean you can't have a feeling like, Reed shepherd, what are you doing? Like, you can feel that way.

[Shannon The Dude]

My tweet isn't even that critical. I said, this is an odd move by Reed shepherd is exactly what I said. And my replies are like, why are you telling fans how to. I'm like, I just said, it's an odd move. It is an odd move.

[Drew Franklin]

Yeah.

[Shannon The Dude]

That's not even being that critical. And I texted you this is before I put anything on the Internet or commented myself. People were coming up to me at Rupp arena yelling at me about it. Like, I'm not inciting that. I'm telling you, I have 10 people in front of me so mad at Reed Shepherd.

[Drew Franklin]

When I saw that picture, I knew what would happen. Like, you and Reed had to have known. He had to have known. He is from the mountains. Like, he is amongst them. He had to have known and he made the choice to do it. And I'm not saying the kid should never be, like, forgiven. It's in the grand scheme of thing, not a huge deal. But people are going to be upset. Right. If I go to a game, Matthew Harper Jones, and it is Kentucky versus Louisville. And I show up in a Louisville T shirt and laugh, or even if I show up in a Joe Biden T shirt and laugh, I can't be surprised at the reaction I'm going to get. Right. Like, I know what I'm gonna get now. I might choose to do it, but I know what's gonna happen. That's what he did.

[Ryan Lemond]

Yeah.

[Drew Franklin]

So, like, he chose it.

[Ryan Lemond]

You know, the picture came out during our pregame show and we were all kind of speechless because we all think I instantly knew this is not gonna go well for him.

[Drew Franklin]

It's just not. And I'm not. You know, you are free to do whatever you want, but then you are also free to get the reaction that it gets. And that's exactly what happened. We'll take a break. Be right back. Ksr.

[Ashley Kineti]

TJ Smith, personal injury attorney.

[Drew Franklin]

Call tj.

[Ashley Kineti]

He'll make him pay. Now more of Kentucky Sports Radio presented by Stockton Mortgage. Here's Matt Jones.

[Drew Franklin]

Welcome back. This is Kendrick Lamar. They had the. The Grammys. And on Sunday, Kendrick Lamar was the big winner. He won like five Grammys for a song of the year for they not like us. I don't know a whole lot about pop music today, but I would say this, man, there's not. What much worse than getting in a battle with somebody and they end up winning song of the year for their diss track on you. Like, that feels like that's a pretty big L. And then isn't he doing the super bowl too?

[Shannon The Dude]

Super Bowl, Yeah.

[Drew Franklin]

Yeah.

[Ryan Lemond]

Have a run.

[Drew Franklin]

So they were. Do me a favor, Shannon, pull up the. The people that were nominated for best new artist.

[Ryan Lemond]

Okay.

[Drew Franklin]

To me, this is always a good indicator of. Do you have any idea what's going on in the world of music? So. So read me who the nominees were, Shannon, for best new artist.

[Ashley Kineti]

Now I'm trying to get there. Me just a minute.

[Matt Jones]

Trying to figure out.

[Ryan Lemond]

I did try to do a lot of show prep. I thought we'd talk about the Grammys. So I studied what Kanye's wife was wearing last night. Want to make sure I was very much aware.

[Drew Franklin]

Yeah. So she showed up like naked. Right.

[Ryan Lemond]

Had like a completely see through.

[Drew Franklin]

They kicked them out. Is that correct?

[Ryan Lemond]

I don't know.

[Shannon The Dude]

He denies it.

[Drew Franklin]

He denies they kicked him out.

[Shannon The Dude]

Yeah.

[Drew Franklin]

But I mean, they. They didn't stay.

[Shannon The Dude]

That looked like an outfit where you'd be asked to leave most establishments.

[Drew Franklin]

I think if you. If you show up at a place naked, it's not unreasonable for them to say you're gonna have to Leave here.

[Shannon The Dude]

There's nothing to the imagination.

[Matt Jones]

Pardon me.

[Ryan Lemond]

You got to step out.

[Drew Franklin]

Yeah, I'm not. I don't think it's crazy to go. You are going to need a piece of clothing if you walk into this building.

[Ryan Lemond]

Something had nothing on.

[Drew Franklin]

All right, so do you have the list? Okay, so read me who got. Who was nominated.

[Ashley Kineti]

Benson Boone.

[Shannon The Dude]

Yes. Moo. Favorite artist in the world.

[Ashley Kineti]

Sabrina Carpenter.

[Drew Franklin]

Hang on, hang on.

[Shannon The Dude]

Just. I had never heard of Benson Boone in my life until the Grammys performance.

[Drew Franklin]

But now I said, is Benson Boone the guy that got up and then two women ripped his clothes off?

[Shannon The Dude]

I had never heard of him until Sunday night. Now, where can I buy concert T?

[Drew Franklin]

He was wearing a blue leisure suit.

[Shannon The Dude]

It was incredible.

[Drew Franklin]

Like, he was wearing, like, an Elvis leisure suit.

[Ryan Lemond]

Oh, I saw Heidi Klum and some other gals.

[Drew Franklin]

That was Heidi Klum.

[Ryan Lemond]

Yeah.

[Shannon The Dude]

And Nikki Glaser. That was Heidi Klum telling you think of the riz on this guy. Isn't that a word the kids say? He's got Heidi Klum ripping his tux off. He did a backflip off the piano while singing.

[Drew Franklin]

So what does he do?

[Shannon The Dude]

I don't know. I've only known about him for 48 hours.

[Drew Franklin]

Play a Vincent Boone song. Shannon, next in the next segment. All right. Because I don't know who that is. Then who else? Sabrina Carpenter, right?

[Ashley Kineti]

Yep.

[Drew Franklin]

She's beautiful. What? She's like. She's blonde, right? I've seen her.

[Shannon The Dude]

She's open for Taylor on her tour.

[Drew Franklin]

Yeah. So I know who that is. Okay, go ahead.

[Ashley Kineti]

Doshi. I think I'm saying that, right.

[Drew Franklin]

I'd never heard of that. I think she, like, raps, right?

[Ryan Lemond]

No idea.

[Shannon The Dude]

I don't know.

[Drew Franklin]

Is it?

[Ryan Lemond]

No idea.

[Drew Franklin]

It's doshi.

[Ashley Kineti]

Is it?

[Drew Franklin]

Or duchy.

[Ashley Kineti]

I could be saying it wrong. I don't know who that person is.

[Drew Franklin]

Okay. All right. Who else?

[Ashley Kineti]

I'm gonna say this one wrong, too. Quang bin kang K H R U a n G B I n. How would you say crang bin?

[Drew Franklin]

I don't.

[Ashley Kineti]

I know he sound 100 years old saying this, but I've never heard of these people.

[Drew Franklin]

Quang or kwong.

[Ashley Kineti]

Kwong Bin or Quang Bin.

[Drew Franklin]

Okay, we don't know who that is. Never heard of them. And then who's the other one?

[Ashley Kineti]

Well, there's a couple more. There's. There's Ray.

[Drew Franklin]

Ray.

[Ashley Kineti]

Just.

[Drew Franklin]

Just a guy.

[Ashley Kineti]

Is he from Harland R a Y e? Ray Ray.

[Shannon The Dude]

I think he came in to fix the podium. He just worked.

[Drew Franklin]

He's. Ray is not Nominated. That's just a guy from Harlem and he just. He got a ticket. There's nobody. There's no singer. That name is just Ray.

[Ashley Kineti]

There's two more.

[Drew Franklin]

Wait a minute. No last name, just Ray.

[Ashley Kineti]

Well, it's like Prince. You don't need a last name, you know? Yeah, but Madonna.

[Drew Franklin]

Prince and Madonna and Beyonce can be one name. Ray's gotta have a last name. You can't just be Ray.

[Ashley Kineti]

Not when you're Ray with an E on the end.

[Drew Franklin]

Like, if I'm a singer, I can't just be Matt.

[Ryan Lemond]

Well, unless.

[Drew Franklin]

You gotta have something. You can't just be Ray if you win.

[Ryan Lemond]

Yeah, for sure.

[Drew Franklin]

All right, and then what was the last one?

[Ashley Kineti]

Two more Shaboozy.

[Drew Franklin]

Okay, now, I know Shaboozi. That's the one that sings that tipsy song, right?

[Matt Jones]

Okay, and then.

[Drew Franklin]

That's not it. That's not the song.

[Shannon The Dude]

That's Jake 1. He copied Jake 1.

[Matt Jones]

It's.

[Drew Franklin]

It's.

[Ryan Lemond]

But he says that in his song.

[Matt Jones]

Yeah, yeah.

[Shannon The Dude]

He. He stole Jquan's.

[Drew Franklin]

Yeah, it's. He says everybody in the club. No, I think everybody in the club getting tips.

[Ryan Lemond]

He stole.

[Matt Jones]

He.

[Ryan Lemond]

He copied it off the first guy.

[Drew Franklin]

Okay.

[Ryan Lemond]

Yeah.

[Drew Franklin]

All right.

[Shannon The Dude]

What's stealing from Jake 1.

[Ashley Kineti]

So it was. And then Teddy Swims, who I've heard of, and then Chappelle, I guess, is. It wrote Roan Rohan.

[Drew Franklin]

I think that's called Chapel.

[Ashley Kineti]

Chapel Roan.

[Drew Franklin]

Chappelle Chapel Rose. It's not like Dave Chappelle. I think it's like.

[Ashley Kineti]

I think it's Chappelle to me, man. I don't listen to any of this stuff.

[Drew Franklin]

I think it's Chape. She. She played in Louisville and they had to, like, shut down the streets. Remember? Like, shut the city down. They. They. She. They were. She was there for some sort of festival or something. And. And. And they. They loved it.

[Shannon The Dude]

Teddy Swims. I know that guy.

[Ashley Kineti]

I do know Teddy Swims. Yeah.

[Shannon The Dude]

What does he do's all over his face.

[Drew Franklin]

What does he do?

[Shannon The Dude]

Sings. He's good at it.

[Drew Franklin]

Swims.

[Shannon The Dude]

Yeah. No, he's good. I can't name a song, but I like him. I think he got big on Tick tock. That's where I saw him.

[Drew Franklin]

You appreciated that?

[Matt Jones]

Yeah.

[Drew Franklin]

I mean, it's in his name. Teddy Swims. That's what he.

[Shannon The Dude]

This Ray.

[Drew Franklin]

Okay, I don't buy. No, I don't buy. Ray. Ray is not a person. Who's next?

[Ashley Kineti]

Let's go to Ted.

[Drew Franklin]

Ray Ted. Go ahead. Tay or Tay.

[Caller]

That's quite the segue. Teddy. Teddy speaking from. Teddy from Chicago too. Hey guys. Paul from my hometown here in Chicago. You know, I attended UK in the 80s. I'm going to be quicker. And I got a colonoscopy thing for you too, Matt. But I like Pope. I really hope UK would have landed Billy Donovan. Let me, let me speak quickly to this. He's been here for five years now, you know, coaching through some of the most terrible Bulls teams I've seen in my life going through the Jordan days. And he's navigated many, many post game pressers. And the beat here, as you guys know, is very tough, real tough. He's never ever been at a loss for words like Pope was Saturday. I was frozen when I listened to Mark. Now Billy's a super smart, well spoken basketball guy. I always learn something when he speaks and this leads me to Mark. I like Mark. I like him a lot. He's no doubt a smart guy. My concern, he's a really nice guy too. That's why I like him. I concern is his ability to recruit the top shelf talent.

[Drew Franklin]

When I heard, I realized he didn't get Caleb Wilson. But remember that was an nil thing and I don't know why that happened. I'm not involved. But. But today there was news. Nate Amit, who is ranked in the top five and really I don't know that Kentucky had been a huge contender for. Is now going to take his last visit to Kentucky and he is down to Duke, Kentucky and Louisville. What a threesome to be the last three. But if he gets him, that would answer your, your concerns, right?

[Caller]

Yeah, it does. I think, I think, you know, you gotta realize he's going up against guys like Cal, some smooth talkers. Billy's not a smooth talker. He is smooth, but he's authentic.

[Drew Franklin]

But Billy's not coming here on some level though to go Billy Donovan is this Billy's this. He's not coming here like he's not the coach here. Mark is so like saying what Billy could have done is really not that productive for us because he's not coming here.

[Shannon The Dude]

All right.

[Caller]

Hey Matt, let me get on to the important thing here. You're colonoscopy.

[Drew Franklin]

I got some advice for you that is important.

[Caller]

Start the, start the magic potion regimen early in the day on Wednesday. Don't start it at noon. My doc had me started early in the morning. So I was done evacuating. Got a good night's sleep. I hear people taking it starting at noon. They're up all night. They're they're not rested. You got to do a show Thursday. You tell your doctor you're starting it Wednesday morning early. And you know what? My brother in law showed up at his colonoscopy. He drove there. The doc says, where's your, where's your wife?

[Matt Jones]

He said, I drove.

[Caller]

He said, well, we can't do it. He said, why not? He said, we're giving you anesthesia. He said, well, have you ever done it without anesthesia? He said, no. He said, let's do it. He had a little discomfort.

[Drew Franklin]

Yeah, we're not doing it. I'm taking all the anesthesia. I'm not, I'm not, I'm not a tough guy. I appreciate the call. I'm gonna take the anesthesia. I don't need to do any sort of, you know, give it to me raw. I'm gonna go ahead and, I'm going ahead and doing it.

[Ryan Lemond]

I would not want that.

[Drew Franklin]

I'm gonna go ahead and just to just. You just do the anesthesia. And then Ryan is, he doesn't know this yet, but he's gonna drive me home.

[Ryan Lemond]

I can drive you home.

[Drew Franklin]

All right.

[Ryan Lemond]

You know, and I are also planning on doing the show Thursday morning. We're just gonna just plan on it just in case.

[Drew Franklin]

Why don't you think I'll be here? You don't think I'm gonna show up?

[Ryan Lemond]

It's just, you're not gonna feel the greatest.

[Drew Franklin]

You're gonna feel, I didn't feel the greatest last Thursday.

[Ryan Lemond]

That's true.

[Drew Franklin]

And you, and I also didn't show up.

[Ashley Kineti]

Could you drink the potion like during the show Wednesday?

[Drew Franklin]

There's no, you don't do the potion anymore. It's like pills, it's like pills and, and, and all that stuff. So it's, it's, it's a lot, it's a lot better. DraftKings, let's make our SEC picks.

I'm sorry, it's taking me a second to get it. There we go. Vanderbilt at Florida. Any chance Vandy can pull the upset? Florida has been struggling.

[Ryan Lemond]

Florida didn't look good against Tennessee this past weekend, but I think they still get Vandy.

[Shannon The Dude]

Yeah, Florida's gonna win.

[Drew Franklin]

Any chance you get this?

[Ashley Kineti]

No, Vandy's not good on the road. They lost about 30 on Saturday at Oklahoma. They're gonna lose.

[Drew Franklin]

Okay, Oklahoma is at Auburn. Auburn wins by like a thousand. Right. So these games are actually not that great. Tomorrow night, by the way, Arkansas at Texas. Does Cal continue the streak?

[Shannon The Dude]

Perfect spot to have a hangover game and lose at Texas. Yeah, not just the Cal dynamic, but a big win. Playing so well like they did in Lexington.

[Drew Franklin]

That's and a rivalry, that's a historic rivalry that they have not played in years. I mean, they have not played in a long, long time against each other. And this is a rivalry that goes back 100 years. And I think they haven't played in like the last 15 or 20.

[Ryan Lemond]

I'm a Drew. I think Arkansas snaps back to reality and has trouble scoring 60 points.

[Drew Franklin]

Welcome back. It is Kentucky Sports Radio. So this is Ray.

[Ashley Kineti]

Yeah.

[Drew Franklin]

And it's a woman. It's not a guy. So it's not a dude from Harlan. It's. It's a woman from Harlan from. From Harlem. Okay. See, I didn't know. I thought. But now I do. Apparently the one thing we couldn't pronounce Quang fin is psychedelic funk.

[Ashley Kineti]

Okay.

[Drew Franklin]

Which by the way, my favorite kind of funk. It is the psychedelic camp. If you're gonna have funk to me, make it as psychedelic as possible.

[Shannon The Dude]

I was way off on Ray. I pictured a guy with a big set of keys on his belt pulling up his jeans, walking up to you. Maybe a Fu Manchu. Not this at all. I have to check out some Ray on the way home.

[Drew Franklin]

There you go. So good to know. Good to know what's out there, right? What the kids are listening to.

[Ryan Lemond]

I've heard. You know a couple of those we kind of had heard, but I have never heard of Ray.

[Drew Franklin]

They're finally bringing back the. The beer here that we ran out of over the weekend. I see kegs rolled in but we now have beer coming in because we had run out of basically all of it.

[Ryan Lemond]

Kind of a good problem, but yet a back problem there. Here's more beer coming in.

[Matt Jones]

Look at this.

[Drew Franklin]

More beer.

[Ryan Lemond]

More beer.

[Shannon The Dude]

Bush Light.

[Drew Franklin]

859280, 2287. I do more of it. Good night. Well, fine. I guess we'll have whatever. Whatever we need. Who's up next?

[Ashley Kineti]

Bob and Jamestown.

[Drew Franklin]

Bob. How are you, Bob?

[Caller]

I'm doing good. Matt. When you have your procedure Thursday, please don't. If you want to have a little, little more fun, tell the anesthetists. You want a catamine. That way you'll be completely awake and you can watch it on the screen.

[Drew Franklin]

I don't want to watch it. What are you. Who are you? Like, like, why would I want to watch it?

[Caller]

That way you can see. I mean, you can see it personally. You're right there while it's happening. And it's. It's a. It's a real good show. You'll be watching the monitor and high definition.

[Drew Franklin]

I could say, take a 200, 290 milligram.

[Caller]

290 milligram lenses, tablet, a couple of bottles of magnesium citrate. You'll be good to go. Like I say, tell the listeners you want to want ketamine.

[Drew Franklin]

You can watch it sitting around taking ketamine all day. Okay, I'm good, but thank you.

[Caller]

No, you just have it one time, and then you'll be completely awake.

[Matt Jones]

You'll be aware.

[Caller]

You can watch it. There's no pain. There's nothing. Is good recovery and makes it a lot better experience that you remember.

[Drew Franklin]

All right, well, thank you very much, Bob. I appreciate it. Yeah, I really want to remember. But see, again, I get all the people go, why. Why are you so mean to Bob?

[Ryan Lemond]

For all the times you did not cut Bob off, that was one. I wish you would have cut Bob off.

UK Old miss today. What tonight? What are you. What are you expecting?

[Shannon The Dude]

A little worried. Got to get Butler back. They have really good guards. However, they're small. Kentucky's got some length. Kentucky should be able to rebound, play the guys that need to play as much as possible. And Kobe Braya, just give him a little nudge. Please. Play well. Get some double digits and they can be okay. But I do worry about how they're gonna guard their guards. That the dude for Virginia Tech looks so good against Auburn.

[Drew Franklin]

He's really good. And what's the little dude that shoots? You can't.

[Shannon The Dude]

Morrell. That's been there a while.

[Drew Franklin]

That little. The little white dude. You can. That guy. Yeah, he. He will. He will absolutely torture to go see.

[Ryan Lemond]

I'm. I'm a little worried, too, about that. It may be a game where they do. To the offensive end, do what they did against Arkansas, just punch it into Amari and say, hey, man, just go get us a bucket. Because he definitely has this. We have his size advantage down low.

[Shannon The Dude]

For sure, but they've also lost three or four. It's not like you're going in. It's just some hot team. I mean, their backs are against the wall too. It's just going to create a rough.

[Drew Franklin]

Who do you think is the key player for us?

[Shannon The Dude]

I felt like I say Kobe every game because he's been so cold. I'm actually gonna say one of those guys off the bench is gonna have to play defense, you know, now I'm going off the grid. I'm going. Brandon Garrison, he hadn't played well lately. He's had a few spurts. We need a full Brandon Garrison game. Even though I just said Amari needs to play a lot, he won't play the whole game. So when Garrison's in, I hope there's not a big drop off.

[Ryan Lemond]

I'll say him this and you know they. Andrew Carr's healthier. You know he's gonna play more minutes. You know, that gives us a more of a size advantage down low. So maybe if he is back to full strength or close to full strength, he can have a big game for him.

[Shannon The Dude]

Yeah, someone did send me a fun stat. Ole Miss is like nearly last in the all of college basketball and height, I mean they're pretty sure their guards. So Kentucky does have an advantage there. They'll be a lot faster and quicker and they play that way. But Kentucky has.

[Drew Franklin]

This is a game where we kind of get car back to car. This is the first game where he's not really been, where he's not been on the injury list in a while. And I would like to see him get, you know, I, I, I don't expect him to be 100%. I mean but that was a dude who was a double digit scorer for us for a long time that we've just kind of had to play around or without for so long. I want to see that finally become a thing.

[Shannon The Dude]

And in most of the big wins he made some big plays down the stretch. You know, maybe he didn't have the best game ever, but how many times we see him go get a three point play or go get a big rebound so I mean he can get.

[Drew Franklin]

You a couple easy buckets around the rim which is something this team struggles at getting. Sometimes I think that, I think he's.

[Ryan Lemond]

Important and this is a game where he can absolutely do that man gets, get his confidence back and knock some of the rust off and, and play well, you know. What do you have? He have 15 minutes last game he didn't play a whole lot. He looked for probably to double that maybe this game.

[Drew Franklin]

Who's next? Shannon?

[Ashley Kineti]

Roger.

[Drew Franklin]

Roger. Go ahead, Roger.

[Caller]

Thanks man for taking my call. The question I have one of them Is how come we didn't foul in the Arkansas game with 56 seconds ago?

[Drew Franklin]

Ah, probably because we thought it was over. I mean it was a 10 point game and there comes a point where you just don't necessarily need the spread to be 25 points. You know, I mean that's just my guess. If I were to guess.

[Caller]

Well, most, most games I've ever watched I've seen teams come back with 30 seconds to go by down by 10 and win. I'm not saying it.

[Drew Franklin]

Yeah, I mean I'm not saying they shouldn't have done it but, but like it is a trade off. I think, you know, there were a couple plays. I think if we had made a, a shot here or there, maybe they would have done it. But you know, I don't know. I didn't have a huge complaint with not doing it, but. Go ahead.

[Caller]

No, I mean I just, it was just weird because I didn't. Most seems they start foul and that's what, that's reason I was curious to see if anybody heard or you know. And then people was walking out at that time too.

[Drew Franklin]

There people did get, you know, for all the excitement and I appreciate the call for all the excitement that was in the arena and there was a lot people also did get out of there as quickly as they could.

[Shannon The Dude]

Those stairs were pretty full.

[Ryan Lemond]

Yes, they were.

[Shannon The Dude]

I mean it was. Amari cut it to 10 with like a minute left at that point. I think everybody knew what the end result was.

[Ryan Lemond]

Yeah, they blew a whistle. It was a foul or something. And the TV cameras showed them people just, just mass ex.

[Drew Franklin]

I mean there were people that have been there since that opened the doors. You know, I do think there was and there was also, I think a lot of people, as much as they wanted to see him come out, they didn't want to see Cal leave with a big smile on his face. You know what I mean? I do think that was part of it.

[Ryan Lemond]

I think there's some truth to that.

[Shannon The Dude]

Yeah, there was a lot.

[Drew Franklin]

That's.

[Shannon The Dude]

That's probably the biggest mass exodus I've seen. I think Tennessee got him pretty good a few years ago and everybody left early because you just don't normally see that at rup. You stay to the end. They were all scattering.
