Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome everybody. It is the KSR Pre Show, Wednesday, August twentieth.
I'm Shannon the Dude. You can give us a call
in the clarks On at eight five nine two eight
oh twenty two eighty seven. You're a whiskey Thief Call
of the day, and you can also send us a
text at five two two six five six six five six.
The KSR pre Show is being brought to you by
a Talles Italian Dining in Lexington, which is where Billy
(00:23):
our Sports is right now in the Lexington studio. Good morning, Billy.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
How are you thank dude. I'll be at a talics
later taking with the brass over there. So excited to
see Chris and everybody over there. It's a little cloudy here,
so maybe we can go outside today, Shane, what about you?
How's it over there in Louisville?
Speaker 1 (00:37):
It actually rained yesterday for the first time in like
a year. I mean I hadn't seen rain it in forever.
You know, I'm tired of you out there and that
the pumpkins, and I was like, finally the rain is
doing it for me. I don't have to worry about
doing it. Last night, Bud, I'll tell you this past day,
the past twenty four hours. I didn't bring it up
yesterday the show because I wanted to see how long.
But there was a water main breaking out Washington, so
(00:58):
I went all day yesterday and part of the night
before with no water in the house. If you've ever
had to go twenty four hours without water but take
for granted in life, just quickly realize how much you
need them when you don't have them. Like you just
assume when I go home, there's going to be a
water and I can wash my clothes or get a shower,
or use the restaurant bathroom exactly when when none of
(01:20):
that stuff works though the last twenty four hours, just
had to figure it out to get some bottle water
and brush my teeth over a udder.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Oh yeah, you were plumbing.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
It, yeah, instead of water from the sink. So they
finally got it fixed. It's back on now. But you know,
I guess because you just go through life every day
seems to be there, then all of a sudden, one
day it's not, and you go, you know what, I
have an all new appreciation for the fact that we
just have any work. It's crazy when you don't have
something for a while.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Yeah. Yeah, it's like when the power goes out and
you're thrown back to the stone ages, right, you become
a caveman. Where are my candles? Where's my deck of
cards that I need to get out and play with
the family.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
It's just we had a left ron by the way though,
just because it works. Just water right, right, when the
water goes out, you know, lights still.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
Work, correct. Yeah, I'm just saying when the power goes out,
that's a whole other ball game. Oh yeah, sure to
pick things for granted, a lot of times that's what
you got till it's gone. It's like that valuable to work, right.
Maybe they get let go and then they realize all
the work that they were picking up that maybe wasn't
on their job description.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Were you implying something I didn't know? Okay, I don't all, but.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Yeah I saw schools were closed yesterday. Did the water
to break or was it?
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Like? I don't know. I know that they are they
are building uh like a gas station, But I don't
want to blame it on them, so we can't. We
can't point fingers.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Like that.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
No, I can't. I can't blame it on anybody. But
and maybe that's what happened.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
I need to call before you dig, is what I've heard.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
That's right, you get there, there's a number you can
call for that. And of course, you know, Billy, when
you're living with somebody, it's much more manageable versus living
alone because if you've got somebody, at least you get
somebody to wallow in film instead of you know, somebody
to vent to a little bit out loud instead of
Jerry Love's company. Exactly. It's a big topic on the
show yesterday when Ryan was talking about the fact that
(03:10):
he's going to be an empty nester. I guess he
already is. And he's never lived alone at any point
in his life. Billy, have you lived alone at any
point in your life? Or have you always had either
a roommate or your parents or your girlfriend. Have you
ever lived alone?
Speaker 2 (03:26):
It's hard to believe, because I know Ryan's sent a
lot of living and you know, on the surface, that
seems like a pretty big thing. But I'm trying to
think about it, Shannon, and yet I think I was
usually with a girlfriend or an ex girlfriend at the
time as I had lived for a little bit, or
with parents or with so I don't know if I
have ever lived alone. I've had roommates before.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Right, but yeah, but that's not living alone.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
I'm right, that's never sole dolo.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
You're the onlyest house.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Yeah, I don't. I don't think I ever.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
Have, so you haven't, Ryan hasn't. I sort of did
for a while, I guess. I mean I had my
own house, lived there. I guess sort of alone for
a while.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
But what time we talking here? Like yo station days
after college?
Speaker 1 (04:08):
Like eleven years ago? Maybe?
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Oh ago, okay, not too long ago.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Yeah, eleven years ago, not that long ago? A capital life.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
Oh stop, I'm not twelve.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
But I don't, you know, I don't really enjoy living.
I don't know if you're like that, you like having
somebody with you. Some people just prefer to be alone. Freedom,
which want anybody bossing you around? Nobody tell you to
pick up the clothes off the floor. But I prefer
to have somebody with me because I think I would
get really lonely just being there.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
You know, I don't mean it too deep here on
the show before the show, but you know, he allotments
have a fear of being alone. Maybe I have some
of that as well. And I've always had or a
girlfriend that I'm living with, but it is a big step,
right to go out there and do it on your own.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
You know.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
The way that we would do it would be like
to find a place and be alone. Ryan in this
is believing, right, he's got place and now everybody's just gone.
But you know, help out with that a little bit.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
It doesn't have to be a loan nothing. Georgetown a
single right, and his son's right over town, right, he's
like right up the road.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
Yeah, and then he gets to interact with the listeners
and us every day. And I think that's a big
part of staying sane when you are living alone, right,
because if you have a stay at home job and
you don't get out a lot, living home, living at
home alone might be a little bit harder, right.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
You got to take it as an you know, experience,
maybe a few new hobbies. Maybe he can finally take
some of that laundry off of his treadmill and treadmill
you know.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
I'm only going to have four times exactly.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
So you know, I think that sometimes it might not
be a bad thing temporarily. I'm not saying long term
want to live alone, but you know, it could have
its disadvantage as a person, right.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
No, I'm I'm I'm going to talk about something that
I've never done before. I have lived alone. But you know,
getting out of your comfort zone and doing things on
your own, it's good for your personal you know. People,
I think some people are afraid to eat alone at
restaurants are gotting Matt Jones. I think it's a big
proponent of that.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
I don't like doing that.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
You don't like I don't like doing it.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
I will take it to go and go home and
eat it, you know, if you won't just find me
Skyline just sitting there enjoying a three way by myself,
you know, like, I'm going to take it home and
I'll eat it by myself, but not out in public.
I'm not able to take it home and have that
three while exactly. I'm not going to go to a
movie by myself. I'm not going to go like, you know,
(06:24):
shop by myself. I'm just not one of those by
myself type of people. I would rather just stay at
home by myself.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
In public and shows, yeah, no, I get that cap
shot by myself. If you go shopping with the I mean,
it is like a zigzag four to five hour marathon
of hitting every shop in the mall, Shan. If I
go shopping by myself, I know where to go, I
know exactly where it's at, and then I'm leaving right after.
When I go play golf, a lot of times I
might go by myself, Shannon, there is a list to it,
(06:52):
I think, especially if you're walking. If you go and
walk nine holes, it's not too hot outside, it can
be really nice. If you're not really really bad. That's
a hard sport to even have fun in. But I
think there are some things that I would do alone.
But I don't know if I go to restaurants or
movies alone. I've never done that.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
See my dad and now you know, we went out
to the State Fair. He goes. You know, last year
I came out to the State Fair. I was by myself,
and I had the great day. And I'm like, well,
that's that's cool that you can think I could do that.
As much as I love the State Fair, I would
have to have somebody to enjoy it with me.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
And you love I mean, this is that's your place, But.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
I'm not going if I must want to take along
with me. After the show, because I didn't just watch.
Come on, let's just walk around here.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (07:31):
You know, I wasn't going to just go grab up
top by myself if you would have, if you were
to have left and Drew were to have left, I
would have just gone home before I would have walked
out there and hung out of the State Fair by myself.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Well, you want to have somebody there to kind of
laugh at them, maybe the top of your passing by,
or share some dip that that that's going to be
there or something like that. You never know what's going
to be at the state fairs. I'm thinking about Ryan.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
When I got there and I looked around and I
saw a bunch of nothing. I go, why did I
sign up for this?
Speaker 2 (07:58):
I know you did it a little different, right, Gosh.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
Like, what am I gonna do here? This is Columbia,
And look no offense to Columbia. I actually have grown
to love Columbia. But I'm saying, put yourself in the
shoes of a nineteen year old kid in Colombia who
doesn't know anything about the area, and you're just going
there basically play baseball, and you go and there's nothing around,
like they've done you know, good things, I think with
(08:23):
that area. A few things to make it.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
To Applebee's now or nothing like that.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
Less boring now. But back then, man, it was like,
oh what am I gonna do with all my downtime
when I'm not in class and not in not at practice.
There's nothing going on in Columbia back in two thousand
and two.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
All right, Grigsby, let me show you what we did
your night here in Clue that water tower there, Yeah,
we try throw this baseball.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
We tried for a tower that's like three hundred. You know,
that's so stupid. But that was entertainment though.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
But that's the stuff you you remember more than I
don't know, maybe even some of the games. I'm sure, right,
I mean, it's stuff. It's the the details, the life,
aker room banter that I think many people remember many
years later down the road than they do any ethnic
thing that you Played's right.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
And the guy yesterday retired fans are Mber Forever John
Wall announced his retirement. He let's see, his last year
was what a couple of years ago I think he played.
He was still playing basketball, still active, but he has
announced retard as of yesterday, and he got John Wall
and there's I mean, there's been so many things said
about it, you're just gonna basically rented anybody else that
said that's true. I felt like he was Ectucky at
(09:29):
the right place, right time, you know, coming in right
after the Hills of the Billy Gliska too Calliperry's first year,
it felt like when John Wall took flour came out
and he did that that stupid dance that took off.
Everybody loved the John Wall dance, and it was everybody
said it was so cool, and you know, it felt
like it did kind of make Kentucky basketball cool again
because Kentucky basketball was tepic cool in the nineties. It
(09:51):
kind of trailed off a little bit during the Tubby years.
It definitely trailed off with the Gillespie years, but then
came back or you know, sied that Kentucky Perry was
the new coach. It just gave Kentucky a fresh coat
of paint, you know, and it felt like Kentucky was
back to sort of the coolness that they had back
in the nineties and a guy that you know, I
think we're gonna remember also just how awesome he was
(10:13):
on the floor. He was cool because he was just
amazing on the court as well. I think back to
the North Carolina game when they played them and he
said I'm back, you know, in that big moment that
he had in that game. So you know his numbers
not up in the rafters yet? Is it? Have they
not know?
Speaker 2 (10:30):
I think he's in the UK Hall of Fame. I
don't how thin his numbers?
Speaker 1 (10:33):
How did they not have Walls Jersey in the rafters?
That rop? I mean, that's got to happen. He's still
got guys from nineties that haven't had they're they're to
retire to either they're Yeah, they're numbers.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
You mentioned a lot of good words there, like you
mentioned the word cool. You gotta mention cool in Kentucky
being cool again when John Wall turned after the Billy Ge,
he did a lot for it. And you also mentioned
his on the courts side. You did. He's he was
so charismatic dancing and his personality, but he was so
good as court. It was every game there was one
move he made that made you say wow, whether just
(11:06):
high flying dunks or just how quick he was in court,
and it really marked the start of He may have
not been the first, but really the one entire not
only at Kentucky, but really in college basketball. If back
at the sport, John wall really starts that era and
launches Kentucky into the John Caliperi era as well, turned
into a national championship and a lot of success in
(11:29):
the in the twenty tenths. This is that's going to
be remembered forever, A full hero to the BBN, right, Shannon,
I mean, this guy is just somebody that you put
it in the right way, was there at the right time.
It just perfect for Kentucky. And and how fun was
that year? Right? I mean freshman year, National Player of
(11:50):
the Year, consensus first Team All American, they win the
SEC Tournament. If it wasn't for West Virginia and Bobby Huggins,
it might be a diff story. But look, he just
took by storm and even after Kucky Man he was
a good ambassador for the program. He was a fun,
charismatic guy in the NBA that I think at Superstars
loved everybody loved about John Caliperry going from Derek Rose
(12:13):
to John Wallman and maybe made people think that Derek
Rose had a higher Peeton might say John wall did.
He was somebody that made almost three hundred million dollars
in the NBA too, So what a career for him.
Probably the right decision to go to Kentucky, and I
think a lot of people are grateful he did make
that decision.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
A word that you hear a lot to describe Wall
rock star, and we've had a few of those at Kentucky,
you know, but very few on the level of like
a Rex Chapman. And I feel like John Wall for
a newer generation was sort of that Rex chipmin box
star calimp Kentucky, I mean, and its everything that he
did on the court and off the court as well.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
Well yeah, I mean right off the bat, you know,
he hits a game winner his first game versus Miami
of Ohio, and I did the coach in the postgame
press conference is like John's the greatest. That's what happened.
That's how we was. The game you mentioned was a
line of game I think of the Connecticut game and
the in the same season. There was a lot of
high moments with him, and I don't know if it's
just the fact that the joy you could see court
(13:15):
right it's it was just brought that energy back to
Kentucky basketball. That they definitely needed. But talk about one
of the best high school mixtapes of all time too, Shanana.
You got to put it in the same vein as
Tavon Austin at West Virginia. John Walls mixtape was one
that made you drop y'all too and say wow. So
there was a lot of great things come and hopefully
we can give them the proper send off with that jersey.
(13:35):
I'm always skols mix Taps on Wall was no real
What do you mean your skeedule?
Speaker 1 (13:40):
I mean, I'm saying a mixtape, you know, I could
look like a great basketball player with the right right
editing and the right angles and all that stuff.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
You know, I doubt I think basketball is the one
thing now like gol like you could probably make me
look like a like a tour player of the right
lighting and singing.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
And then we'll edit, and then we'll throw the golf
ball up on the green right next to the hole,
and it looks like you just shot it four hundred
yards right on the green.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
How but we put you in a sun hat and
we do a quick at it cut a you'd growing
pumpkins in the garden.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
Well, you'd for that that's reality. I can do that
on my own.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
A four pro yeah, is what you're saying.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
I mean, you know, maybe I'm just saying. I'm just
saying some of these You see these mixtapes and you go,
come on, really, I need a mixtape, John Walls. I'm
talking about mixtapes with some of these guys and they
and they can't.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
Yeah, every kid's got a mixtape out there, right, I
mean they're they're sending videos to coaches and it may
be the second string offensive tackle that's played two snaps
three years.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
Yeah, tamas A Skirkana, sixth grader. Oh yeah, it makes
you look great. But anyway, John Wall just thirty four
years old too. Man, did you realize he was that young?
Just thirty four?
Speaker 2 (14:47):
No? No, but it's it's obvious, like Lebron doing it
in his forties. But I also have to remember that
is like a free He is a freaking normal and
so like thirty four is a much more normal something
like this to happen. But I think people like Lebron
and time I'm Brady have warped our minds into thinking
people should play forever, right, But it's hard to ever
do at Kentucky yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
I mean, you know, we put together like our all
time position by position players Kentucky and Are. I feel
like that was unanimous across. Just about everybody that picked
on the show had John Wall. So yeah, at least
here in case Are, I got the best in my
lifetime for sure. Not going to say greatest overall. I
didn't some of the guys back in the day. I
(15:29):
don't know that it's even fair to compare the game
of basketball to the way.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
It was four years years ago.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
Kyle Macy, Yeah, I don't know what it was for Yeah,
is it even fair to compare those guys to John Wall?
I feel like the game has just advanced so much
over the years. Probably not, But in my lifetime I
would say John Wall the greatest to ever do it
here at Kentucky position.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
Well, can you do the dance before we go to break, Shane,
Can I see a little John Wall? John? Yeah, that's
all right.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
They find two eight oh twenty two eighties, ten days
away from football season. We're going to talk more about
football if what's going on in practice? Coming up next
here on the KSR pre Show. All right, welcome back,
it is KSR Pre Show eight five nine two eighth
twenty two eighty seven Shant Them the Dude Billy Rutledge
and this segment sponsored by Draftking Sportsbook, Billy the Toledo
(16:16):
Kentucky game down to seven and a half at some
point it at some point, I feel like I just
got to pull the trigger and bet it because if
it gets say what if it goes down anymore? I'm
on it.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
But I'm I'm you're optimistic, seah No.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
No, I fill up about seven and a half, but
I think it's still going to come down maybe another
half a point. And when it was, and when it does,
I'm more I'm gonna jump on at Draft King Sports Book,
the rivalries, the marching bands, the upsets. Saturdays just got
way more fun and college football is back and if

(17:12):
Bonus bets expires seven days too much for additional firms
and responsible gaming resources see dk m G dot co
slash audio. So, yeah, Billy were ten days away from
football season, and the quarterback competition seemingly is neck and
neck with Sada and Bowley, although I still believe that
Klasada is the guy and uh Bush Hampden says he
doesn't want to rotate quarterbacks, which I think is a
(17:35):
good thing. I believe in a flow beating and I
have continuous offensive flow and rhythm when you have another
quarterbacks out there every jeries. So I think that if
they're going to stick with Klasaid, they need to keep
them out there unless there's snarious circuses in which you
pull them out. But I think you know, first game
it's going to be all cause OUTA. I don't. I
(17:56):
don't anticipate at all seeing Cutter Bowley in that first game.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
Well, you don't want whoever wins the not looking over
their shoulder. You want them to be able to play
fearless and make mistakes. You know, it was the guys
on the Kentucky basketball team that would free and then
immediately be pulled out that had the worst of it, right,
because you can't play through your mistakes. I think it
was Chris Fisher that made this beautiful point on the
Leader post morning that Kentucky philps not built to rep
(18:20):
quick and that biggest thing going for if a strong
run game and a strong defense are your strengths, and
your quarterback really just needs to be a game manager, right,
not turn over the football. So Devin Leary, Brock Vandergriff
didn't really work out with those guys. Is there a
different flavor with Zach Calzado. We'll see, But I think
I just think the rumblings are going to be loud
(18:40):
if this team works the first two year to start
future in Cutter Bully is the puture of the PRAM
and also saying that there is a quarterback battle as
we ared eleven days, ten days away from the start
of the season. So I think that's that would be
a natural reaction from fans right to see the youth
of Cutter h While he played well at Texas didn't
(19:01):
play well in the Louisville game very much, but yet
position so well. I agree with you, though I think
it's Calzada's job until he plays poorly or something happens.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
Well, it is good to know that, like if for
you know, let's not try to speak it into existence,
but if Calasada were to go down with an injury,
that you're not going to be dropping off that much
from your starter to your second stream. Because there's a
lot of times where you know, the the starting quarterback
is clearly the best quarterback on the team, then he
goes down with an injury. Next thing you know, you
(19:31):
got a guy that doesn't quite stock up to the
guy that you had out there, and now things fall
apart and the season just comes unraveled. I feel like,
at least from what we're hearing in practices and scrimmages,
that with Cutter Bowley being up there, you know nearly
as with Calsata, you go to Cutter Bowley and hopefully
(19:52):
that transition is seamless into your second string. If it
goes that way, we got to take a break eight five, nine, two,
eight oh twenty two eighty seven. It is the ksrpre
Show will be right back. Welcome back. It is the
KSR pre show. Some stp right here. They're going to
be a part of Louder than Life fest Billy. We're
already like a month away from Louder than Life too,
and a little cross plug here. I've got free tickets
(20:13):
to give away today and all this week on one
hundred point one to be a KQQ and Lexington from
three till seven be listening, and then here in Louisville.
You want free tickets. I was looking at the ticket
prices for Louder than Life, Billy in years past, They've
been like a little over seven hundred for a weekend. Yeah,
(20:34):
the weekend we're talking about for like two passes for
all four days, Okay, which again that's not something I
would go at alone. I wouldn't go to a festival alone.
Some people would. But I'm giving away a pair of
passes for all four days. But you want to take
a guess at how much it is to go four
days to Louder than Life two people.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
In this economy, I'm going to say more than what
it has been. So I'm going to maybe like twelve
hundred we make that.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
You're yeah, well, a little bit less. So I guess
in your case, if you'd be willing to pay twelve hundred,
you'd be getting a deal because it's a little over
one thousand dollars, but still one thousand dollars for two people.
And I know it's four days and it's over one
hundred and seventy five bands, so I get it. But still,
Man's that's a lot of money.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
That's not food included either.
Speaker 1 (21:21):
Yeah, it's mood order. No, No, that's just the get
in price. And considering you know, I know it's hard
to compare today's market to fifty years ago, but considering
my dad went to see Black Sabbath for seven dollars
back in the seventies, and now we're talking about one
thousand dollars to go to four days of music festivals,
it's it's a little pricey to say the least.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
Yeah, that's my parents saying, oh, I spent five dollars
and saw Pearl Jam open up for this band, And
I like, yeah, okay, yeah, it's nothing that I can
have access to nowadays. But what are you talking about?
You go to these these music festivals by yourself.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
That's I mean, I am working and I'm not by myself.
I'm with you know, Tony T and T Tilford. Okay, yeah,
my program director.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
Our promotions people on the Boombox. Are we going to
have the boom Box this year?
Speaker 1 (22:07):
I think so, but they've set everything up differently as
we talked about last week, So I don't know it's
how it's going to look or little boom box stage
that's about what. I don't know exactly where they're going
to have a set up at this year. But nonetheless
we're going to be out there and like I said,
if you want to win six thousand bucks, listen this
afternoon to double Q and Lexington or QMF and Loibell
(22:29):
and I might be able to hook you up with
three tickets to the show.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
Well you always had your own porta potty. That was
what I was like. Wow, this guy, Shannon the dude,
he's a rock star, he's on this boom Box, he's
doing meeting these DJs of the past, and he's got
his own porta potty. Yet louder than life.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
Try to got my name on it. So Shannon, real
estate potty, everybody else stay out, all right? So we
had some people write us on Twitter one question was
what percentage of run past do you think of good season?
I like that question. We just talked about the fact
that we think that the quarterback may not be throwing
as much this this year. With Bushamton's offense. If I
(23:08):
were to guess Billy, I would say probably somewhere thirty
five pass. That might be a little off. It's just
a guess here, But I think that they're going to
rely heavily on the run game. So I think the
offense is going to look like run, run, run, run, plate.
What do you think?
Speaker 2 (23:26):
Yeah, I don't think you're far off, But I will
say coach Stoops is somebody that preaches balance a lot, right.
He's somebody that, while his identity is smash mouth football,
is always talking about having balance. So I think it's
maybe a little closer to sixty forty, nowhere near the
fifty to fifty that they might preach because you know
Stoops is conservative, right. I mean, if it's midfield, less
(23:48):
than three minutes left to go, you got a chance
to beat the number one team in the country, you're
gonna punt. You're gonna rely on what got you there,
your defense, And you'd argue if that's the right decision
or not, and we did last year, but that is
who Stoops is and so with the to have an
back position this year, I think that is it's clear
that I think they will get close to sixty percent running.
Speaker 1 (24:05):
They got to keep the scores close, you know, like
like low, not close, but I mean low. Remember last year,
how many times did this team st to get to
twenty points? If you're playing now, it's specially different team
last year. We're talking about a roster to over the players.
I don't I'll try to last year's team too much
to this team. But I still feel like the personnel,
(24:26):
even though the names are different, I feel like the
uh like the schemes and everything are going to be
very similar. So I still feel like even though it's
new players coming in, it's still going to be those
teams Kentucky teams that needs to keep the score low
to have a chance to win.
Speaker 2 (24:40):
Yeah, and we're kind about I guess Stoops, Baker and
maybe some things that need to change. What the middle
eight is something that we've talked about for years. Shot
on the tight ends, yea, maybe this is the year
for tight ends that Vince is gone, but I'm just
not counting on that this year. I am counting under
management around the middle eight. And maybe that's hopeless thinking
because you've got to deep with stoops and it had
han't been great time in. But if you'd like to
(25:02):
see Kentucky get to that optimate stick six and six mark,
they've got to win something. Felt like Kentucky's lost a
lot of games in that middle eight years past.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
And it's grinded out type, you know, but that's just
that's just the stoops mantra. And last year Kentucky pulls
off the upset against Ole Miss. It's a twenty to
seventeen game. You know, they didn't beat Old Miss by
out shooting them, you know, just in scoring forty points.
It was a low scoring game. This team is going
to have.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
Al goal my Old Miss and turnover. I mean, this
just cannot make mistakes yourself.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
Yep. Sure the defense, and I think that obviously given
the schedule, have some things go your way. If you're
going to go to a ball game this year eight five, nine,
twenty two, eighty seven, let's go to Casey Hey, Casey.
Speaker 3 (25:46):
Hey, Casey Hey, good morning guys. So I had two things.
The first thing. You know, the old adage, if you
have two quarterbacks, you don't have a quarterback. That's the
only thing that makes me nervous about what the comments
coming out of camp and stuff. But hopefully it just
means that Cutter is much better farther along than what
everybody's been expecting. So I'm going to try to be
(26:07):
an optimist on that. But my second thing, I'm glad
you all are talking about loneliness because I just texted
Matt like a month ago about Biby, because it's he
does such a good job of going places by himself
and doing things by himself myself for the first time,
I have a son, but he's with his dad half
the time, so half the time I'm completely alone, and
(26:29):
it is wild being alone when you're not used to it.
So I pray for Ron and everybody who's lonely because
there is a lot to coming together and be in
there for each other because it's hard. So that's all
I had. Thank you guys.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
Yeah, what are you doing to like not be lonely?
Speaker 3 (26:47):
So I'm trying to pick up reading. I'm not a
good reader, though, because I've asked, I get Cogfalk really bad.
So I listen to you guys every day I get
I try to make a routine. Because I'm disabled, I
don't work either. It's tough, it's it's I was diagnosed
nine years ago, so I haven't worked for nine years.
And it's just it's a big life adjustment. Just check
(27:07):
on all your friends that all wanted to say.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
Saying that and listening, you know, that's making some feet out.
Shannon is that we provide friendship for people listening in
a lot of different places. If you are lonely, you
can turn on the KSR pre s or ks are
an act like.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
You're with the guys right track up here with you
every day for three hours. Then I think in lovel
they're actually playing a replay now of KSR, so you
can always listen to that. Of course we're always on
podcast as well. And then you got the prices right
for the eleventh. I if I were at home in
our casey, I'd have to be doing some more. I'd
probably have prices right to be on mute and then
listening to kiss eleven.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
Can you can you do three things at once?
Speaker 4 (27:42):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (27:42):
I mean, I guess you can. As the radio pature,
that's in our job description.
Speaker 1 (27:46):
I got you asked me, can I do three things
that it's listening here, hosting a radio show, producing a radiotion,
answering the calls of a radio sho sorry ones at once.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I asked him this question till
I'm brag like yes.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
As far as the other question talking about Calzada, Bowlie
was this question yesterday on the show. And I don't
know the answer because I'm not pat But do you
think that okse that cal Zada is playing down to
a second string quarterback and not maybe meeting expectations going in,
or do you think it's Cutter Bowley exceeding expectations and
(28:19):
actually playing up to a starter caliber just.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
Taking I think it's the second one, and I being
hopeful and having optimistic thinking for thinking that.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
I mean, I mean, I don't know the answer. I'm
just out there. What do you think it is?
Speaker 2 (28:33):
I don't know. I mean just the way that Cutter
has been described by people in person. I mean Drew
Franklin back after watching some of those spring practices and
the number one takeaway Scutter was the best quarterback out there.
You know, I think we would send maybe some little
bit more negative stuff outa if that was the case
and he was playing out into a tube. Look. And
I said that yesterday that if quarterbacks you don't have
(28:54):
any But there is a degree of maybe last season
that Kentucky went to go to their second string quarterback
at one point, right, I mean, the injuries are going
to happen. It's just it's good to have this problem.
I don't think it's a situation that you would not welcome, right.
You want competition. You want these guys to push each
other to be their best. It's kind of like when
you're like sub of them in and out, or you know,
(29:16):
it's like one the backup's better than the considering better
than start, and people are qualifed. That's when you can
get a little contentious. And and as of right now,
hopefully Kentucky can avoid it. And I think Bush Hampden
already said that he doesn't want to do like a
platoon system.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
With these guys pollying up at Casada in front of you,
would you know either one if they didn't have their jerseys,
their helmets, and or they were just in playing clothes,
would you know either one of them?
Speaker 2 (29:36):
I would know Bully just because we went and did
that recruitment. We did KSR did the shot and trying
to get internet and our equipment to work in school
is never easy, Shannon, So I remember that they.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
Except for walking around at the state fair and went
up and grabbed a corn dog. Oh there's Cutter Bowlly.
You would know them.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
Yeah, yeah, he's kind of got like, thanks, I've been
rocking lately, And uh, what about Calzata? No? No, And
he's a he's balds a video game and so when
he handle his hair all.
Speaker 1 (30:02):
Well, how do you know he doesn't have the Do
you see him without the helmet? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (30:05):
Yeah, I did, you've got hair. I was like, who's
that guy.
Speaker 1 (30:08):
That's start starting quarterback? That's who that guy?
Speaker 2 (30:10):
I thought he was bald.

We'll take your phone calls eight five nine two eight
oh twenty two eighty seven. It is KSR Apprecial final
segment of the KSR pre Show. You know our guys, SHIAJ.
Pete who has become our favorite at least my favorite
guy on the Kentucky football team so far, even though
the season hasn't started yet, just from the interview that
he did with KSR. But he says that Bush Hampden
(31:15):
is teaching the guys to breathe through their nose because
it relaxes box or a mouth breather. I would say
that you're probably a nose breather because you got a
pacifier in your mouth most of the time, so you
have to breathe through your nose. But are you a
nose breather or a mouth breather you don't have your passifier.
Speaker 2 (31:33):
I'm a nose breather, okay, because of the passifier, Like
you said, Shannon, I'd be on a mouth breather like yourself.
I can see those teeth. I see you at least well.
One of my favorite Kentucky football players of all time.
And there's a lot of facts in what Bush Hampden's
teaching him about the breathing in through your nose and
out through your mouth. I do that before I hit
(31:54):
an important coach, Shannon, just to call them. Okay, the
heart a little bit your yoga. You gotta breathing exercises.
I'm not meditating yet, you know I'm not doing.
Speaker 1 (32:02):
Ins and out through your mouth. Yeah, that's how you
got to do it.
Speaker 2 (32:06):
So I need to do more exercises working with you.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
But no doubt about that. Look, I love it too,
So I understand that I got a story for Shure.
Speaker 2 (32:16):
Did you see that Louisville is the area code?
Speaker 1 (32:20):
No, it's five two.
Speaker 2 (32:22):
Yeah, we've exhausted the five oh two numbers. What is so?
They announced yes, likely starting in twenty twenty seven, new
numbers will be assigned the seven six to.
Speaker 1 (32:31):
One area code seven six one.
Speaker 2 (32:34):
So I guess this is like there's a lot of
areas in the country that's peping out of the area code.
It's called overlay when you have two. But the seven
six to one area code now coming to Louisville starting
in twenty.
Speaker 1 (32:43):
Seven six, Well, you know what I'm hearing though, a
new opportunity for us. They already have five oh Tuesday,
now six to oho Ondnesday for Monday. I'm just saying, have.
Speaker 2 (32:54):
That seven six.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
One day or like Monday one day.
Speaker 2 (32:59):
Yeah, it's still a cheesy way to do it.
Speaker 1 (33:02):
Well, couple of Tuesdays is about it? Cheese cats? How
still you make it more cheesebolish? I guess give us
enough time seven one day. There you go.
Speaker 2 (33:14):
That doesn't change anything for us. I think that only
means we have to use ten digit dialing after they
make the change. But besides that, it's not going to
change what we do. So they just run out of numbers.
There's ran out of numbers.
Speaker 1 (33:26):
You feel like that that's you know, all the combination
of numbers. You wouldn't run out of them when you
have to do it.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
Well, you only have what seven digits after that? And
I don't like everything like I thought, there's a thought
that like we would run out of like news because
every chord has played or yeah, is there any truth
to that?
Speaker 1 (33:44):
I mean, there's still music coming out, but a lot
of it sounds like the old stuff you know there, Yeah,
there are so many comedy chiqus. But that's why you've
had you know, a.
Speaker 2 (33:52):
Lot of hit songs have the same chord R exactly.
Speaker 1 (33:54):
Not not to get deep into that conversation, but that's
why you have lawsuits because Hey, you ripped off my song. Yeah,
I guess I just have the same chords that you
have in your song, which.
Speaker 2 (34:02):
Yeah, Maroon five ripping off an older s back in
the seventies or eighties or whatever it is.
Speaker 1 (34:07):
Hey five nine twenty two eighty seven. Allen is up next?
Speaker 2 (34:10):
Hey, Allen, Hey, Allen.
Speaker 4 (34:12):
Hey, guys, how you doing. Hey? In regards to cutter bowlie, uh,
maybe playing above the expectations he showed against Texas, that
kid's got a bunch of potential, man, and maybe he's
starting to tap into it.
Speaker 1 (34:29):
You'll have a good day, all right, Thanks for the call.
Speaker 2 (34:31):
Thank you, Alan.
Speaker 1 (34:31):
Yeah, I like to think that that's probably the case,
which I's out up playing down, but you know, Cutter
Bowley stepping up his game. I feel like that again,
as I said earlier, that's a good thing to happen.
It's good. It's good to have competition, to push your
starting quarterback. Let him rust on us. It's too comfortable
out there, right. I think you kind of want that.
Speaker 2 (34:51):
Sure, And whichever quarterback is going to be, I think
you have to be excited for receiver position. It's not
dang Key and barry On Brown. But Kendrick Law is
a talented guy from Alabama. We saw Macklin make some
strides at the end of the year. Uh, you know
who knows bes becomes that guy for us. But I
think there's a lapto for whichever guy gets that sixty.
But as we sing, that schedule does not do with
(35:14):
them any favors. And you'd hate to make a quarterback
change after you've already you're already down twenty one to zero,
or you've already lost a couple of games. So hopefully
they get the right guy in first.
Speaker 1 (35:22):
What's the amount of salary that you think the average
American says they need to live comfortable. So the study
came out.
Speaker 2 (35:29):
So I just need to live to live, come live comfortably.
So I'm thinking with the fishing, we're getting close to
six figures. So like one ten, you're right on it.
Speaker 1 (35:40):
Nearly has it. Nearly fans say they need at least
one hundred thousand dollars or more a year to feel
financially secure. Roughly one quarter or twenty six percent say
one hundred and fifty or more, and then sixteen percent
say they need two hundreds more two hundred thousand dollars
or more, like you need to have it. I mean yeah,
I could say you fill out the survey with that answer. Look,
(36:02):
I'm with you. I need at least two hundred thousand
dollars to love comfortably, all right. You know, like these
first class trips to Florida aren't gonna pay for them something.
Speaker 2 (36:10):
If you're living at one ten, I would have.
Speaker 1 (36:12):
To think though, those are probably people in New York City,
maybe bigger cities.
Speaker 2 (36:16):
I mean that was my first thought. Yeah, you can't
even live in some places for one ten comfortably, right,
I mean average American.
Speaker 1 (36:23):
Right, so this is taken into account small cities, big cities,
and everything in between.
Speaker 2 (36:28):
By and Gary, Indiana exactly Beverly Hills.
Speaker 1 (36:32):
And you're gonna need a lot more than what you're
gonna plan on buying his house. Did you see how
much his house is loosted for?
Speaker 2 (36:38):
No, I haven't seen this. All right, what's the price?
Speaker 1 (36:40):
Since we're guessing numbers here, go ahead and guess how
much do you think Anthony Davis's house on the market
right now?
Speaker 2 (36:46):
My guy, ad he's on the house. He's probably got
a pool or two ye some multiple rooms. It's not
Drake's mansion.
Speaker 1 (36:53):
I mean, I'm just going to tell you it's a million.
Well you're way off.
Speaker 2 (36:57):
What is it?
Speaker 1 (36:58):
Time's that by four three forty million, eighty million dollars?
You can own Anthony Davis's home.
Speaker 2 (37:06):
You don't need that many rooms in your house, man.
Speaker 1 (37:08):
No, sort of Well that's more for clean not that
he's cleaning any houses.
Speaker 2 (37:13):
But can stay with you.
