this is Kentucky Sports Radio, presented by Stockton Mortgage. Now here's Matt Jones.

Matt Jones (2:36)

Welcome, everyone. It is Kentucky Sports Radio, Tuesday, March 3rd. I'm Matt Jones here in Louisville, Kentucky, where I'm in a studio by myself. I've got Shannon in the studio next to me. Ryan and Lexing. Ryan and Drew are in Lexington. How. Hello, fellas. How are you?

Ryan (2:55)

Morning. How are you, sir?

Matt Jones (2:56)

I'm lonely. I mean, I come in here, just have to look at Mario and his cream sweater and then that's really it. 859-280-2287 is Clark's Puppet Shop phone line. Avion auto glass text machine is 772-774-5254. In this edition sponsored by the TJ Smith Law Office. If you call TJ he'll make them pay. It is the final road game of the season for the Cats. They are going to be in College Station where I went to a game, I guess it was four years ago and it was awesome and we came back and won. And now Kentucky has a chance to continue their hot winning streak and win game at 7 o' clock tonight before they play Florida on the weekend. Ryan, this is a game that the beginning, like beginning of SEC play look like. Oh no. But A and M, like a lot of teams we've played is on a long losing streak coming into us not playing well. Chance to steal one this evening even though we didn't against Auburn and Georgia.

Ryan (3:56)

Yeah, A and M's lost six of their last eight. But back in January they were like they were the team to beat. They were in first place. They started so hot start conference play high in the rankings and now they kind of just turned. Buckyball has kind of hit a brick wall. It seems like here late in the season.

Matt Jones (4:10)

Yeah, I drew, I, I, I think we got a real shot to, to to win this. A and M is kind of played itself, if not on the bubble, at least one of the lower seeds. They kind of need this game but I feel like we have a shot. I would say again, guessing spreads you may know is A and m like 2 1/2 point favor.

Drew (4:31)

You nailed it. Nailed it. Two and a half point spread.

Matt Jones (4:33)

Look at this. I didn't do well with the spread against Vandy but otherwise been pretty good at those this year. I like our chances tonight. Drew, what about you?

Drew (4:42)

I do too. They're in desperation mode. I think in the last bracketology they have one of the last buys so they're in. But they still would like to get a few more wins and it's their senior night down there in College Station.

Matt Jones (4:53)

Oh, wow.

Drew (4:54)

But otherwise they've lost six out of eight that they play that bucky ball style. But if you can get them away from it. They don't have much of a half court defense whatsoever. Some teams have.

Matt Jones (5:03)

So what is, what is buckyball style? People say that all the time. What does it mean to a lot

Shannon (5:08)

of threes, a lot of layups. A lot like Alabama basically.

Matt Jones (5:11)

Okay, that's what they call buckyball and press.

Ryan (5:15)

Yeah, press and shoot threes.

Drew (5:17)

Turnovers of the story tonight.

Matt Jones (5:19)

Now we like that in terms of. We like getting in transition which can happen. Do you. How do you think we handle the press? That's not something we've seen a lot this year.

Ryan (5:30)

Well, now that we have aoc, I'm not too concerned about it anymore. Aberdeen's been a great job at point guard. I mean he's. What would your stat you said yesterday, last four games he's got like one turnover.

Matt Jones (5:38)

16, 16 assists, one turnover.

Ryan (5:40)

That's amazing for a guy that is really a two guard and had to develop into this point guard. So yeah, bring all the smoke. I like my AOC back court.

Drew (5:49)

Bring all the smoke of an aoc even in Texas.

Matt Jones (5:52)

Oh, AOC in Texas. That's. That's probably. That's her stomping grounds AOC show. For people who missed the show yesterday, that's Aberdeen Way and Chandler not making a political seats. Aberdeen Way and Chandler, the three headed goat AOC. So that game is at 7 o'. Clock. Our pregame show will start at 4:30. There's a lot going on so let's talk. Let's start with the piece of if not concrete news, at least reported news. Drew. Jack Pilgrim yesterday reported Jaden Quaintance is back working with the team with the goal of playing in the postseason, which of course will be next week. He says he didn't say he would play, but that is the goal. This comes after yesterday where I think we all dismissed the idea that he would play. So what do you think about that, Drew? You think there's a chance he plays or is it like he's trying, he's going to work out but probably not going to play? What do you think?

Drew (6:56)

I'm still pretty skeptical just because the calendar. He hadn't started practicing yet. He's close to starting practice and I mean they're going to be going to Nashville a week from today. So how many really practices are left in the season? So I like that he's trying. I like the attitude and if he can give him some minutes, I think that will be great. I know some minutes I would like for some people to take but it just mathematically if you haven't practiced yet. I mean, the postseason starts next week. I just wonder how, how conditioning wise and how ready can he can be when we only saw four games of him.

Matt Jones (7:28)

Yeah, I mean, I'm, I'm not skeptical of the report. I think that's what they, what people want to be out there. I just, I, I, I guess let's just, let's just be very simple about it. Will he play a game at Kentucky again? Ryan, did anything change yesterday? You said no. Does anything change your mind to today, to Yes.

Ryan (7:51)

I still feel like it's no.

Matt Jones (7:52)

Okay.

Ryan (7:53)

Jack Pilgrim wouldn't have put it that out there without good information. But, man, like Drew said, we're in March. March Madness has started. You don't just kind of run some experiments here in March. You got to go out and win the game. So my vote would be probably maybe get back on the court to do some drills. But he's not going to play.

Matt Jones (8:08)

Yeah, I mean, I tend to think no, but I also think that there is a. They want people to think that he's trying, and I understand that. I think probably there might have been a little internal regret. Drew, about the dad post this weekend. You think that's maybe part of it,

Drew (8:28)

that if you want to have a conspiracy theory. Some mock drafts came out yesterday.

Matt Jones (8:33)

Yeah. 29th.

Drew (8:34)

He had gone down quite a bit. I thought he's had the right attitude all year now. I think when he came back and swelling came up and he wasn't used the way he kind of wanted to, probably shutting it down, but if he's going to try, I completely support it. I just think you're at the end of the year where it just seems impossible for him to make.

Matt Jones (8:53)

You think it would have much of an impact? Like, I feel like Cam Williams can come back and it would be an impact. Jaden Quaint, I mean, certainly. Okay. But I don't think that's really the issue for Kentucky going into the postseason. Like, if I were to say to you, you could snap your fingers magically and get someone back, wouldn't you take Cam Williams.

Ryan (9:17)

I think you would, because Jaden Quaint would probably just give you maybe, what, five, six minutes a game, how much impact you'll be able to make in that shorter run out there, whereas.

Matt Jones (9:26)

But Cam Williams has something that we do not have the time wing. Drew. I, for me, I think Cam Williams would have a bigger impact.

Drew (9:37)

And even if Williams didn't even have much of an impact, that's just a position where you need more bodies, where if he gave you any minutes.

Matt Jones (9:43)

Yes.

Drew (9:43)

It could help out overall, where I. I still want more minutes for yellow, but there's bigs. I want more minutes from right now. So I think they're more desperate at the slot. Cam Williams could help.

Matt Jones (9:52)

All right, so then the other thing is I, you know, I don't know how you do this or how you say this. Right. I think there's a decent chance that there could be some big Kentucky athletics news today. If we follow the script of what always happens, it would be announced at like 1205.

Ryan (10:15)

Yep. Right over the show ends.

Matt Jones (10:17)

That's generally speaking what happens. I like how Mario turned around and looked at the clock. Still the first segment. We're not to 1205. First segments. Always 10 to 10 to 10, 20. Let me ask you. I mean, I put out. We. We have not, as a group, talked. I put out the thing last night on a KSR plus that. That I was hearing something would happen. Have you guys heard anything? We haven't talked about it. So let's see. On your own, have you heard anything?

Ryan (10:52)

I've not. I've kind of hoped maybe you tease us a little bit about what you think might. Might.

Matt Jones (10:56)

Actually, I'm not. I don't like teasing you. Like, you're not.

Ryan (10:59)

That's weird.

Shannon (10:59)

Don't ask me.

Matt Jones (11:00)

Yeah, please don't ask me. I'm not gonna. I have no. I have no interest in teasing you, Ryan. No. So you have everything. What about you, Drew?

Drew (11:12)

I have heard something that would be on this timeline, but I did not hear it as recent as, like yesterday to be on high alert. But I haven't been anticipating something.

Matt Jones (11:22)

Yeah.

Drew (11:23)

Some reasonably soon.

Matt Jones (11:25)

So, you know, I mean, the question. Well, I mean, I think it's an important conversation, and since I think it's going to come out at 1205. But I also want the person to be able to make his own timeline. So I'll just say I think that there's likely to be an important transition coming, and I'll just leave it at that. And if it does, I think it's. I actually think it's the right time for it to happen, and I think it would be a big deal for Kentucky athletics. So I'll just leave it at that because, you know, it is what it is, and I. And I can't. I think I was going to say it, Shannon. And then Ryan used the word tease.

Ryan (12:12)

Yeah.

Shannon (12:12)

Then it got weird. It got off, and then it felt

Matt Jones (12:14)

like it got weird, and I just need to change the subject.

Shannon (12:17)

Yeah.

Ryan (12:18)

Maybe we should go an extra coverage like we did with the Julius Randall. Wasn't Julius Randall.

Drew (12:22)

No.

Matt Jones (12:22)

Harrison twins.

Ryan (12:23)

Harrison twins.

Matt Jones (12:24)

Harrison twins. We went. No, actually you're right. It was Julius Randall. We went long Harrison twins. We came back on the air in the afternoon.

Ryan (12:32)

Yeah, that was an afternoon.

Matt Jones (12:32)

We did a special episode where we said first they split the zone goat and now they're splitting defenders. The Harrison twins are back. So, so we'll leave it at that. I would just say I think there could, I do think there's going to be news this week and it could happen as soon as as today and this afternoon. Now let's go back to Texas A and M. Drew, do you tell people, you know the bucky ball thing, why has it stopped working, you think? My general view that when you're a pressing team like that, the novelty just wears off and people figure you out.

Drew (13:07)

That and their top 20 in a bunch of stats like threes, threes attempted, forcing turnovers. But I think they padded their stats a lot earlier in the year. They're, they're ranked high in scoring offense, but they had like four games in the non conference where they scored like around 120 points and they didn't play

Matt Jones (13:25)

a great non conference schedule, which is

Drew (13:27)

part of the reason why they're on schedule easier too. So I think they're getting into the tougher competition.

Matt Jones (13:32)

Yeah. And that's also why they're on the, the, the, the bubble line and the bot is because they have these. They don't have a ton of losses, but they didn't really play a ton of good teams in the non conference.

Drew (13:44)

They opened the SEC with like LSU, Ole Mississippi State. So they were 7 and 1 and in first place for a long time. But even kind of with the non conference, I think they were doing a lot of their work early and now they ran into all the buzz sauce.

Matt Jones (13:56)

Yeah. All right, so talk about what happens if we win. Okay. If Kentucky were to win, we are now 10 and 6 in conference. Let's say we go to 11 and 6. All right. If you're 11 and 6 in the conference, you have a chance to not only be a six seed, but I think you have a chance if you were to upset Florida to be like a five seed, which really would be amazing. When I thought if we lost a couple like three games ago, we'd be on the bubble. You win tonight, you're probably going to be a 5, 6 seed in the SEC tournament, which gives you a path potentially to make a run. You win tonight you're guaranteed that, that 20 win season that we've talked a lot about over the years. You win tonight, you go into this game against Florida with some momentum, a chance to pull off an upset, a chance to maybe even depending on what happens in the Arkansas games, if you were to beat Florida, you could get all the way up to a three seed in the SEC tournament, which is crazy if you think about it. There's. This is a game with the potential to really like. You've kind of made it to where you've got a puncher's chance in March, but, but now you have a chance to have a puncher's chance after having a good seed. Ryan, this could be a huge victory for Kentucky if they could get it,

Ryan (15:30)

which is just crazy. It's been such a topsy, turvy, turvy season. This time last week we're talking about trying not to play on Wednesday in the first round of the SEC tournament. Now we got a puncher's chance to maybe getting up with the three seed in the SEC tournament if they can pull off these two wins. I worry that the game is almost bigger for Texas A and M though. Isn't it? Like they need it for their.

Matt Jones (15:47)

It is. But you know what, People can get nervous sometimes, Drew. They stand up for their big shot and then we can, you know, we can come in and they play nervous and next thing you know we win the game.

Drew (16:00)

Yeah, you could say the same thing. Last Saturday they were at home playing Texas. Yeah. A team they should beat. I don't remember the point spread. I assume they were slightly favored and you know, you lose that one. So they've already had their back against the wall a little bit. They've lost six out of eight games here recently. So I still like Kentucky coming into this, especially as hot as Kentucky played last Saturday. And they've played well on the road a lot of times this year too.

Matt Jones (16:23)

Yeah, well. 859-280-2287. We'll get you ready for Kentucky A and M. We will take your calls. I'm in studio so I can see the names, Shannon, so I can pick people that look like they would be fun to talk to and then save Bob and Jamestown for a time at the very end or never. Yes.

Shannon (16:43)

Poor Bob.

Matt Jones (16:44)

Yes.

Shannon (16:45)

Leave him on hold for two hours.

Matt Jones (16:46)

Yeah. Let me also say this, by the way on my, my, my scuttle butt. If it's not today, that's okay. But I, I'm hearing could be today. But I do think this week stop

Shannon (16:57)

Teasing Ryan, will you.

Matt Jones (16:59)

It's just. It's just what I'm doing. He's just all up here. It's just. It's. It's just. It's. It's just he's right here and I can't help it. We'll take a break. Be right back. You could save thousands by refinancing your

Welcome back, Techie Sports Radio. 859-280-2287. Text Machine 772-774-5254. One person writes. Matt, is the announcement that Amy McGrath is a mother, a fighter pilot and running for Senate. Now that, that we. That's. That announcement's been made many times. Every time. Although you don't see as many commercials.

Ryan (20:15)

No.

Matt Jones (20:16)

Now, now, we used to. Now Nate Morris.

Shannon (20:19)

I know that name. I didn't know who that was six weeks.

Matt Jones (20:21)

Well, that's why they do it. I would but like I said yesterday. Nate, calm down. Just. I'm trying to watch the game.

Ryan (20:29)

Every other commercials, him or Andy Barr, back to back.

Shannon (20:32)

Sometimes even on YouTube, you get on. I'm just trying to watch a music video I know about.

Matt Jones (20:36)

I would vote against both of them just on principle. Leave me alone.

Drew (20:40)

Yeah, see, I'm that those people exist and I'm one of them. The more you bother me. I don't. You could be the perfect candidate. If I get tired of seeing you during my games, you're out. I'm going to the next person on the ballot.

Matt Jones (20:50)

You're out. That's right.

Drew (20:52)

You can have too much of you on my television. And Nate is already there.

Matt Jones (20:56)

Nate, text machine 772-7745254. One person writes. Matt, if you're not gonna say what the news is, why do you even talk about it? Because that is what content is. You talk about something and then let people, you know, let people know something could be happening. Listen, like if you want just the facts, sir, then go read the newspaper. And there's not a lot of you that do that, like, unfortunately. So that's, that's just conversation. I'm just, you know, it's. And there's also when it happens, I'll tell you as well why, why that's the case. So that's, that's why. And like, and as I, as I said online last night when I wrote it, you know, Ryan, you and I come from an era like speculation is part of what's being fun about sports. Right. Is who's going to be the coach. What is the time with the most listeners to ksr? Mostly our listeners stay the same during the year. But the one thing that will always spike it is a coaching search.

Ryan (21:59)

Absolutely.

Matt Jones (22:00)

That's the thing that people care about the most. And now portal season is becoming like that. Are we going to get this guy who's Ryan going to guarantee that we're getting that we don't get? Because people, I think, like drew speculation and what's going to happen.

Drew (22:16)

That's part of being a fan. It wouldn't be that fun if we just all turned off the TV when the games were over and just waited until the next time they took off and turned it on again.

Matt Jones (22:25)

But I don't think that's as much fun now. Before we go to the phones, Mark Stoops has a new job.

Ryan (22:30)

I saw that Mark Stoops is going

Matt Jones (22:32)

to become the new special assistant at Texas.

Drew (22:38)

He will.

Matt Jones (22:38)

It's hard. He will be, I guess, a consultant, which is what they're kind of doing now for former coaches as they kind of have a stop off in between their jobs. Texas has a bunch of those guys. Ryan, what do you think about Stoops in Texas, by the way, does not get rid of any of the salary obligation we have towards. I know people ask that question. I don't know. I don't know if he's getting paid or not. But I've been told doesn't change the amount UK will owe it.

Ryan (23:06)

Yeah, that's the first question I had. Does it affect the buyout for Kentucky? But apparently it doesn't. But it tells me he's not done with coaching. I mean, I really thought maybe he might ride off in the sunset and have his bourbon business, but he's obviously got his still as hard as. Still maybe being a. Even a head coach again someday, I think.

Matt Jones (23:22)

And those jobs, Drew, they can be very different. It can be a job where you're there full time. You're essentially a member of the staff. It can also be a job where you're there during the season and you're just doing game prep. Like every consultant job is different. Some of them are intense and some of them are less intense. And I don't know which one this will be. So I don't know what type of consultant it is, but I'm. I'm happy for Mark. We play them this year, so that'll be kind of weird seeing him on the other side of the field. But I'm happy for him that that will help him get towards, you know, getting back into the business.

Drew (24:00)

Yeah, we won't have to. I don't think we play until next year. So he didn't go to a direct.

Matt Jones (24:04)

We don't play. We don't play him. This. We play Oklahoma. That's right. Yeah.

Drew (24:09)

Yeah. I figured he might do this. I was actually looking for him to do Georgia being so close. He is to Kirby but I think Texas is a good fit on Texas's end. I completely know why they went and got Stoops. They're owing three against Georgia since being in the sec. And Stoops even though he never got them, his defense has played Kirby pretty well most years and then even played Texas to overtime last year. So you bring him in to self scout your own team and to help maybe get you over the hump if you happen to run into Georgia again.

Matt Jones (24:38)

I mean it's funny how different the world would be if they had just converted that one of the touchdown against Texas.

Ryan (24:43)

No doubt could be. I mean he get Mark Soups might

Matt Jones (24:46)

still be, he might still be the coach here if they had scored right there.

Ryan (24:50)

So were you surprised that he took this position?

Matt Jones (24:53)

Not really. I mean I don't think he's like. I don't think he's like permanently moving from Lexington still now if I hear he's moving to Austin, he's like full time joining the staff all the time then that might surprise me a little bit. But I think he'll do the job where he's there during the season and practice and. But I would, I think his base Ryan is still going to be here.

Ryan (25:18)

Well, like I said, just keep these fingers out there. Maybe he, you know, next year he'll be a head coach somewhere else.

Matt Jones (25:23)

He'll be a head coach again. I do, I don't know when but I think he will and I hope he is. I'll root for his team wherever he goes. Isaiah, what's up? Isaiah?

Caller or Guest (25:33)

Hey Matt. Listen, I just want to quote Mark Polk and say I am mother bleeping excited. I'm so optimistic right now with the news of Cam and JQ possibly returning.

Matt Jones (25:43)

Do you think they will? I mean you're optimistic. Like do you feel like that could happen or do you think it's just Chad?

Caller or Guest (25:50)

I think it's, I think it could because and, and, and maybe he's not like super impactful but on a game to game situation matchups and everything if you ask J2 go get a stop. I mean he's a defensive monster. I think. I just think he could help us in that sense. Jack Pilgrim talked to Malachi's brother last night on Sources say and, and I thought it was a really good piece. I encourage everybody to listen to it.

Matt Jones (26:15)

Did he say Malachi was going to come back? That's what I want to know.

Caller or Guest (26:20)

I think I think it's possible, but what I thought was very possible.

Matt Jones (26:24)

It's not an answer. Anything is possible. What? What did he say? I didn't get to hear it.

Caller or Guest (26:32)

Well, basically with. With jq, he's just saying, you know, every game.

Matt Jones (26:35)

Not jq. Malachi. Malachi.

Caller or Guest (26:40)

Sorry.

Matt Jones (26:43)

And then, of course, we lose him. Shannon. Right.

Shannon (26:44)

So wishy.

Ryan (26:45)

Wow, what a cliffhanger.

Drew (26:46)

A lot going on there.

Shannon (26:47)

I learned nothing from that.

Matt Jones (26:49)

His phone didn't work. I got excited. What did Michael Moreno say? Cause by the way, I think, Drew, that's the most important thing for next year. Are you getting Malachi Moreno back? Moreno and Chandler promised me they come back and that's a great head start for next year.

Drew (27:06)

And Moreno?

Matt Jones (27:07)

Well, both of them.

Drew (27:07)

But Moreno especially. His phone's going to be ringing a lot because there's not a lot of those guys that'll be coming back to college basketball. So I don't know. They've already been having these conversations behind the scenes. If you haven't got it done, lock it up soon. So there's no temptation once the season ends.

Ryan (27:21)

Underpaid for him last year. They're going to have to overpay this year.

Matt Jones (27:24)

They did underpay. That's fine, though. Do it?

Ryan (27:26)

Yep.

Matt Jones (27:27)

You can't let a kid from Scott county get out of the state and go somewhere else. If he goes to draft, that's one thing, but he can't. You can't have him go to another college. We'll take a break. Be right back. It's ksr. TJ Smith, personal injury attorney.

Ana Navarro (27:44)

Call tj.

Matt Jones (27:44)

He'll make him pay.

Shannon (27:46)

Now more of Kentucky Sports Radio presented by Stockton Mortgage. Here's Matt Jones.

Matt Jones (27:51)

Welcome back. Yeah, we're not going to Austin, but we're going close.

Shannon (27:57)

Well, Stoops is.

Matt Jones (27:59)

Oh, that's true.

Shannon (27:59)

Yeah, this is.

Matt Jones (28:00)

You know what?

Shannon (28:01)

This isn't for you.

Matt Jones (28:01)

Why do I. Why do I. Why do I. Why do I even question? You're right. I should have. Should have known. Shannon knows. 859-280-2287. All right, so tomorrow we're going to have on Cash Daniel for a little bit. He's got wrestling on Friday. OVW is in Lexington Friday. Shannon, are you wrestling?

Shannon (28:23)

I have no idea. But if Cash wants to rumble, I'll get in there with.

Ryan (28:27)

I'm here.

Matt Jones (28:28)

I heard it might be Cash versus Shannon.

Shannon (28:31)

If he wants some, he can bring it.

Matt Jones (28:34)

Who?

Ryan (28:34)

I know every.

Shannon (28:35)

I know every trick in the book.

Matt Jones (28:37)

He's probably weighs 125 pounds more than

Shannon (28:40)

you yeah, but he doesn't have much between the ears. He's a little dull.

Ryan (28:43)

Oh, so I can outsmart him.

Shannon (28:45)

It only takes three seconds to win.

Matt Jones (28:47)

Oh, no.

Ryan (28:47)

Yeah, well, you got throw salt in his eye behind.

Matt Jones (28:50)

All right, so we have so. But it's not just Shannon and Cash. I believe Ryan, Willie, Collie Stein is going to be there.

Ryan (28:58)

Yes. Yeah.

Shannon (28:59)

Who else have Willie fight him?

Matt Jones (29:01)

Khalil Whitney. Khalil Whitney is going to be there.

Ryan (29:05)

There's a chance going to be several former UK football and basketball players there for like meet and greets.

Matt Jones (29:10)

So that's Friday night. Where is it Friday? I should know this. The Alumni Center. So Friday night at the Alumni center. Ovw. Good chance to bring out your family. And there will be lots of former UK players there. Cash will be wrestling. Shannon is going to get beat up and then there's going to be Willie and other people there and they may even be involved in somehow. I. I don't know. I'm going to probably stop by and yell at some people. So that. That is Friday night if you're looking for po. Pre Florida game entertainment. Also Friday, our remote at die. Excuse me. At Paul Miller Ford. We will have Sissy Cakes there. Sissy Cakes makes their debut Drew in Lexington Friday at our remote.

Drew (29:57)

Looking forward to that one. Lot going on at that remote. Had that on the calendar for a while. And I will definitely be skipping breakfast Friday morning so I can eat as much Sissy Cakes as possible.

Matt Jones (30:05)

And some of those guys are going to be at the remote, right?

Drew (30:08)

Jasper and Malachi.

Matt Jones (30:09)

Jasper and Malachi, yes.

Ryan (30:11)

They'll be there.

Matt Jones (30:11)

Do you know how happy Ryan's going to be that Jasper is there?

Ryan (30:15)

Both my. Both my boys are there and sons.

Matt Jones (30:17)

So Jasper and Malachi will be at the. At the remote Friday. So a lot going on in Lexington on Friday. Jasper, Malachi during the day. Willie, Cash, Shannon at night. I would love to see that poster. Just those guys. And then there's Shannon going. Hello.

Ryan (30:35)

I want plays.

Shannon (30:37)

Yeah.

Ryan (30:37)

What Blueground plays in Saturday night in Lexington.

Drew (30:40)

Roofs.

Shannon (30:40)

Lexington Saturday you're at 10.

Matt Jones (30:42)

Roof Saturday night.

Shannon (30:43)

Stay in Lexington all weekend.

Drew (30:44)

Yeah.

Matt Jones (30:44)

Oh, I make. I may make a tin roof appearance. What time do you play?

Shannon (30:48)

7. 7 till about 10:30, I think.

Matt Jones (30:51)

The game's at 4 though, right? I could do the post game show though.

Shannon (30:57)

Let's go.

Matt Jones (30:58)

You know, if we win, I might go do the postgame show outside.

Ryan (31:02)

Wow.

Shannon (31:02)

You should do that.

Matt Jones (31:04)

If we. If we lose, I'll. I'll come after it. But that would be funny. All Right. Well, that's. That is an exciting weekend. Might be social for the first time in a long time. The high school regionals start. Well, they. I think one of them started, but a lot are tonight, Ryan. Games all over the place. You and I are going to go with Mario. I drew. I don't. I haven't heard if you're going yet. Are you going to the third?

Drew (31:28)

I'm unable. I'm unable to go. I'll go to Middlesborough, but can't make the game.

Matt Jones (31:30)

All right, so that was supposed to be a surprise show, but well done. Yes. Drop it.

Shannon (31:35)

Okay, there we go.

Matt Jones (31:36)

Oh, my bad. There we go. Did you get it?

Shannon (31:39)

Yeah.

Matt Jones (31:40)

Okay.

Shannon (31:41)

Remind me to take it out of the podcast.

Matt Jones (31:42)

Take it out of the podcast. All right. Ryan and I are going to the 13th region tournament on Wednesday night to see. To see 13th region games. You excited about that, Ryan?

Ryan (31:55)

We fell in love with the 13th region tournament a couple of years ago, and they let us do some color commentary and play by play down there. I love it. I love the fact where it is at the arena, the Corbin Arena. You told me that Pineville even won

Matt Jones (32:05)

the district, like the first time played in the regional tournament since, like, who knows? They're in it in Bell county. And we're going to go both.

Ryan (32:12)

How about that?

Matt Jones (32:13)

So we will be in Corbin Wednesday night. So just.

Drew (32:15)

I like how they bring those big coal trucks out at the entrance for the players for Region 13. Remember, they'd run through those with the. Run through the cold, big setup.

Matt Jones (32:23)

Yeah. So we will be there Wednesday night. All right, let's go to Todd. Go ahead, Todd.

Caller or Guest (32:28)

Hey, man. I was just touching up on what you. And you were talking about having JQ back or Cam Williams, and I mean, if I want anyone to come back, it'd be the lottery pick, Jaden Quaintance. I mean, Cam Williams. I mean, our guards are playing so good right now. It'd be nice to have more. But.

Matt Jones (32:49)

But we have four big. We have four bigs for two positions, and we really have three guards for three positions.

Caller or Guest (32:58)

I get that. But I mean, the less I see Brandon Garrison, the better.

Matt Jones (33:02)

Yeah, I mean, I know what you mean, but, like, we have really no consistent reserves in the backcourt. Don't you think having one would be helpful?

Caller or Guest (33:12)

You're. Yeah, you're right. I mean, let's just get them both back. How's that sound?

Matt Jones (33:15)

All right. Did Shannon tells me that you call with fake names, Todd, that he's accusing you of that? Is that true?

Caller or Guest (33:23)

The first time I called. The first time I called was the postgame of Texas and there was like three Michaels. And I was like, well, I'm just going to tell you my middle name. So that's what I did.

Matt Jones (33:35)

All right. Does that, does that satisfy your question, Shannon?

Shannon (33:39)

Well, I mean, he's not the only one. A lot of people seem to have identity crisis when they call in.

Matt Jones (33:43)

I mean, because the thing is, when people call, we can, can see your name.

Shannon (33:48)

Yeah. And I ask you what your name is and it's like.

Matt Jones (33:50)

But we can see it.

Shannon (33:51)

Yeah.

Matt Jones (33:51)

Like it comes up.

Shannon (33:52)

I'm Fred. And then the name that come up is Mike. I'm like, well, did you used to be Mike? Are you Fred or who are you? Do you know who you are?

Caller or Guest (33:59)

Yes, I do. I'm putting 100 on cash Daniels on Friday.

Matt Jones (34:02)

Okay, see, I like that. Now, Todd, I'm on your side. Who's.

Shannon (34:08)

I'll just come out and say my name's Todd. I'm not really a Shannon. Let's go to Howie.

Matt Jones (34:11)

Howie. Go ahead to Howie.

Caller or Guest (34:14)

Yes, Matt, I just wondered if you had any thoughts or ideas on when Mitch Barnhart might retire.

Matt Jones (34:22)

I mean, things can happen.

Caller or Guest (34:29)

Maybe this week or next week.

Matt Jones (34:31)

So. 859-280-2287. Tax machine is 772-774-5254. I think what will be interesting whenever it is that Mitch Barnhart were to make a decision to leave, I think, Ryan, the real question is what comes next? Right. I mean, to me that's the question. Do you hire within do that? Would they already know who the person's going to be? Do you do a search around the country? To me, the day Mitch Barnhart leaves. And I think Mitch Barnhart has done an amazing job at Kentucky over the course of his career. But the day he leaves, the main question to me is, okay, what's next? I think the day he leaves, you take a minute to celebrate what has been the longest serving ad in UK's history and a very successful one, and then you go, okay, but what's next? That, to me is the most important question.

Ryan (35:26)

Yeah. Not just the longest ad in UK history, he's the longest ad currently in the Southeastern Conference. He's had unbelievable success. That's a big chair to fill whoever they go out and hire. You know, when Sam Newton left, they did hire with him and Larry Ivey. Then when Larry Ivey left, they had, they went outside and got Mitch. So it's, it seems like almost need to bring somebody from the outside for a breath of Fresh air a lot of times. But not this time. He's done a great job getting. Setting the table.

Matt Jones (35:48)

What do you mean, not this time?

Ryan (35:50)

I think this time he's got. He's done such a great job setting the table, maybe one of his people within would just be able to step in and continue what he's.

Matt Jones (35:56)

That's what you would do.

Ryan (35:57)

That's probably what I would do, yeah.

Matt Jones (36:00)

Well, when that conversation comes, we'll talk about it. Who's. Let's go to Derek. Go ahead, Derek.

Caller or Guest (36:08)

Hey, Matt. Just calling with the fact related to that thing last week with the scotus.net guy or whatever in the poker games.

Matt Jones (36:16)

Yes.

Caller or Guest (36:18)

There's a movie called Molly's Game.

Matt Jones (36:20)

I've seen it.

Caller or Guest (36:20)

Story.

Matt Jones (36:21)

I've seen it. Yeah.

Caller or Guest (36:22)

And Peter Parker, I guess, Toby Maguire, I guess, was one of the main characters they're referencing in that movie. So I wonder if this guy played any role in that. But secondly, I was just going to ask, are you going to watch the World Baseball Classic?

Matt Jones (36:35)

I think I will. I mean, I appreciate the call. I never totally understand what the World Baseball Classic. Like, some of the guys play, some of them don't. But I do think when you get a big game, when you get like Japan versus the United States or the Dominican Republic versus the United States, I do find it very entertaining. And so, yeah, I'll probably, probably watch it. I don't think any of the Reds are playing, but. Drew, will you watch the World Baseball Classic?

Drew (37:02)

Yeah, if the Americans get in a big game, I will. Sometimes I come off as a baseball hater, but it's just the length of the season. Any, you know, playoffs or any meaningful game. Olympics, something like the World Baseball Classic. I'll absolutely tune in.

Matt Jones (37:14)

Yeah. I'm Shannon. I've already looked like the Reds are probably winning 110 games.

Shannon (37:22)

Really? Based off what?

Matt Jones (37:26)

Well, I mean, the lineup.

Shannon (37:27)

Oh.

Matt Jones (37:28)

I mean, they're hitting.

Shannon (37:29)

Are they?

Matt Jones (37:29)

Matt McClain had two McBangs yesterday.

Ryan (37:33)

He needs to have. Have a rebound last year. Yeah. Yeah.

Shannon (37:37)

You're basing this off spring training?

Matt Jones (37:38)

Oh, spring training is crucial.

Ryan (37:40)

Yeah.

Shannon (37:40)

So he probably got those hits off a guy that was in double A ball.

Matt Jones (37:43)

Yeah. But he hit it so hard.

Shannon (37:44)

Yeah.

Matt Jones (37:47)

Well, you know, it's. This is the summer of Ellie.

Shannon (37:50)

Oh, yeah.

Matt Jones (37:50)

Leading into the, to the, the. The rise of Sal.

Drew (37:56)

Do you know what, Sal, do you know what their win total is on DraftKings?

Matt Jones (37:59)

I think 108.

Drew (38:01)

No, you should definitely bet it if you think it's gonna be 108. It's 81. So I mean, you got a big cushion there.

Shannon (38:07)

500.

Matt Jones (38:07)

That's 500. Oh, over. We're winning. Dodgers need to watch out. There's got all kinds of guys. And they got Brady Singer.

Shannon (38:17)

You gotta watch out for him.

Matt Jones (38:21)

I've got all the bobblehead days. They're having a Harry Potter day. I'm skipping that one. Yeah. Stop overpaying for sunglasses. If you're tired of buying expensive sunglasses only to lose or break them, or worse, you don't even wear them. Shady Race. Independent American owned company started right here in Kentucky.

Ryder Strong (38:50)

Ksr this is Ryder Strong with a podcast called the red weather. In 1995, my neighbor Anna Trainor disappeared from a commune.

Matt Jones (38:58)

It was nature and trees and praying and drugs.

Caller or Guest (39:02)

So, no, I am not your guru.

Ryder Strong (39:06)

And back then I lied to everybody.

Podcast Host (Keep It Positive, Sweetie) (39:08)

They have had this case for 30 years.

You're sipping coffee with one, maybe grabbing dinner with another and praying your karmic Ken or Babi appears before your shelf life runs out. Trust me, I've been through this ancient and unshakable tradition. I jumped in hoping to find love the right way. And instead I found chaos, cringe and comedy. And now I'm looking for healing. Boys and girls dives into every twist and turn of the arranged marriage carousel. The meet awkward, the near misses, the heartbreak. And let's not forget all the jokes. Listen to boys and Girls on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

I'm An Navarro and on my new podcast, Bleep with Anna Navarro, I'm talking to the people closest to the biggest issues happening in your community and around the world. Because I know deep down inside right now we are all cursing and asking what the BLEEP is going on. I'm talking to people like Julie K. Brown who broke the explosive story on Jeffrey Epstein in 2018. These victims have been let down time and time again for decades and decades and decades by local law enforcement, by federal law enforcement, by administration after administration.

Matt Jones (41:41)

The Justice Department through I think we counted four presidential administrations failed these victims.

Ana Navarro (41:50)

Matt Jones (42:06)

Welcome back. It is Kentucky Sports Radio, 859-280-2287. We have some breaking news. There we go.

Shannon (42:18)

Took a minute.

Matt Jones (42:19)

Yes, it did. John Pelfrey has been dismissed as the coach of the Tennessee Tech basketball team. They are the first team to make a change here in the college basketball season. They will not be their last. Sad to see that Ryan, he's not done very well there. That is a very difficult job. But Pelfrey is out at Tennessee Tech.

Ryan (42:41)

I haven't followed Tennessee Tech. I guess I assume they must have had a bad season. But you know, when he was at South Alabama, he was as hot a name as anybody. Then he goes to Arkansas. Didn't have any success. Assistant coach again for a long time. Got this second chance to be a head coaching job. So he's running out of options, I think. Running around time to maybe finally win a good head coaching job.

Matt Jones (43:00)

Yeah, sorry to see that. I like John, but you know, you got to win. And you're right, he did a great job to start his career. But Drew, since then it really hasn't gone very well.

Drew (43:12)

You know, Kentucky beat them by 50 this year. Maybe some responsibility, maybe a little bit on uk.

Matt Jones (43:19)

I know I doubt that was really the game that did him in. But yeah, it was cool.

Drew (43:25)

He got that moment to come back here at UK and have that even though the season didn't go well for him.

Matt Jones (43:30)

That's too bad. One person writes. Matt, you and Shannon should know that you guys were the top topic of the Southland Group text yesterday.

Shannon (43:41)

Oh, really?

Matt Jones (43:42)

Someone admitted to listening, although everyone else said they didn't. And so everyone is wondering what you said, even though they can't turn it on. Yeah, we may need to. Do you know how in. You know how Shannon in. They in. In. When we're in war places, back in the Cold War, we would, like, send radio signals into Russia with our propaganda.

Shannon (44:04)

Yeah, yeah, that. To the church, you're saying?

Matt Jones (44:07)

Yeah. I don't know how you do that, though. How do we send, like, Morse code to the Southland Church members about what's going on?

Shannon (44:14)

Yeah. They could read the transcript of the show. That wouldn't be the same, would it? There's listening.

Matt Jones (44:20)

Oh, that's interesting. It's not that, because everything on there said listen.

Drew (44:23)

Yeah.

Shannon (44:24)

If you go to the iHeart app and go on there, you can read the transcript of the show.

Matt Jones (44:28)

Oh, that's interesting.

Shannon (44:28)

Yeah.

Matt Jones (44:29)

Loophole. I also heard through the grapevine the Southland minister is a U of L fan.

Ryan (44:36)

Dun, dun, dun.

Shannon (44:37)

I've never booed a minister, but I think we should boo him now.

Matt Jones (44:40)

I'm sure he's a wonderful guy, but you think that could happen? You think that could have something to do with it? Drew, going into March.

Ryan (44:48)

Yeah.

Drew (44:48)

I got to be careful here. I don't want to say anything inappropriate, but. Yeah, that. That does raise some concerns. Also tuning out a Kentucky show this time of year.

Matt Jones (44:57)

Yes.

Drew (44:57)

With your Louisville leader. Fishy.

Matt Jones (45:00)

I'm just saying.

Drew (45:02)

Very fishy.

Matt Jones (45:05)

Speaking of fishing during lint, I walked by, like, five Catholic churches on my walk Friday night. You want to talk about something? They love their fish fries on Fridays during Lent. Those are parties in Louisville. I walked by, literally. Maybe not five, but three or four. And they were. Shannon. There were people everywhere.

Shannon (45:25)

I'm not even Catholic. I go to the fish fries just to party with them.

Matt Jones (45:28)

During Lent?

Shannon (45:29)

Yeah.

Matt Jones (45:29)

Did you go this week?

Shannon (45:31)

No, but I have in the past. Pull tabs and beer and fish. Come on, man. It's fun.

Drew (45:37)

I've never been. But they talk about it like it's spring break.

Ryan (45:40)

Yes, they do.

Matt Jones (45:40)

But what, like, is that. I'm for it. Like, have a good reason to have fun, but is that. Does that Easter related? It's like, let's do pull tabs.

Drew (45:51)

Blackjack.

Matt Jones (45:51)

Was that in. Was that in Isaiah? Did I not read that verse?

Shannon (45:55)

Yeah. Jesus. Jesus was big on the lottery back in the day. Love the lottery gambler.

Matt Jones (46:00)

Yeah. Well, anyway, it was. It looked. The fish look good.

Shannon (46:04)

I almost went and, like, it's in the New Testament. You should look it up.

Matt Jones (46:07)

Well, I don't have that one, but I'm for it.

Shannon (46:09)

Newest Testament.

Matt Jones (46:10)

Okay, Austin, go ahead. Austin.

Caller or Guest (46:14)

Hey, Matt, can you hear me?

Matt Jones (46:15)

Yes.

Caller or Guest (46:18)

Hey, I wanted to comment on the JQ potential return. And I just. I have a quick, you know, couple points I wanted to hit quickly.

Matt Jones (46:28)

Quickly? Yeah.

Caller or Guest (46:30)

Number one. So, like, you got a guy and listen, I'm all for it. If he wants to come in and contribute and, and help the team win, I'm all for it. But you got a guy who theoretically hasn't done anything in, what, more than half, two months, and then he comes into a game just out of nowhere and is expected to perform.

Matt Jones (46:53)

And it's high level.

Caller or Guest (46:54)

Right.

Matt Jones (46:54)

And it's going to be against a really good team. So, like, I'm with you. I. That's why I don't think it's a really good team. That's why I don't think it's going to be that big thing. What's your second thing? Real quick?

Caller or Guest (47:04)

Yeah. So, like, you know, within that rotation, like, you put him in and really, it's just. It just needs to be for Malachi to get, like a little break and then put him back in because in the reality, he's just not going to be used to the defensive rotation.

Matt Jones (47:19)

I agree with you. I appreciate the call. That's why, for me, Cam's a bigger deal because what he does is not as easily replicated. Let's go to Ben. Go ahead, Ben.

Caller or Guest (47:31)

Hey, Matt. So I just want to say with all the Jaden Quatin's talk, I agree with the Cam Williams idea, but I'm. My question is, what's the chance that Jaden Quaintance could return next season for the Wild?

Matt Jones (47:43)

Zero, I would think. Zero. I would think zero.

Caller or Guest (47:47)

Really?

Ryan (47:47)

He.

Matt Jones (47:48)

He will get picked in the first round and if he's already been injured once, Drew, I just don't know that you can. You can risk it again. Would you.

Drew (47:57)

No, no, no. And he slipped a little bit on like a mock draft, maybe two yesterday, but he's still in that lottery conversation. Even if he's sliding a little bit. I mean, someone will definitely take him in the first round.

He had a chance to go 4th or 5th. Now he might go 10 through 15th, but I would be shocked if he got taken after that.

Ryan (48:19)

You still take it? Yeah. If you're Jaden Quaint, you still. You still go. If you're 10 to 15, you slip a little bit, but you're still going

Matt Jones (48:25)

to take that that's what I would do. Let's go to Matt. Go ahead, Matt.

Caller or Guest (48:31)

Hey guys. Yes, first time caller who I live in Louisiana and I've got some friends that I worked with. They're heading over to College Station tonight and I wondered if you got there taking their son for a birthday.

Matt Jones (48:44)

Yes.

Caller or Guest (48:44)

I believe he's 12 or 13. And I wonder if you guys had any advice for some first time fans going to their first game at College Station.

Matt Jones (48:51)

First of all, first time road game is the most fun if you win. And remember if we win, if you go down to the next to the UK bench usually the team and the players will come out and greet the fans and you actually can get some pretty good access. So if we win, do that. As far as College Station, it is hard to park there. So make sure they get there early. And there is a, there's a place that everybody goes and you probably need to go early to get there. It's like burgers and barbecue. It's like the campus spot probably four or five blocks from the arena. It'll be a lot of people but the food is really good and it goes quick. And I wish I could give you the name. Somebody will give it to me on the text machine but I hot somebody told me that place and I highly recommend it. I can't, I can't. Somebody will write it for me but, but it is. I appreciate the call. It can be hard to park there because it's on campus and it's kind of like hidden. Well, not hidden but it's just, it's not an easy place to get in and out of. So just be prepared to get there early and probably walk.

Ryan (49:54)

People who've gone down there said Texas A and M fans are the best in the sec.

Matt Jones (49:57)

They are. Yeah. They, they were good when I was there and I was there like I said 2022 I think and it was a blast. 859-280-2287 we will take a break, come back. Our number two lot to to get to including what's the SEC tournament look like for Kentucky right back.
