This podcast, stuff The Leads Report is presented by Boone's
Butcher Shop in Barnstown at one hundred Old Bloomfield Pike,
family owned and operated since nineteen forty six, with fresh
meat cut on site daily Boones Butcher Shop. I'm taking
some vacation time and today was a day when it
was difficult to line up a guest host, so we
(00:22):
pre recorded a show, and what today is going to
focus on is just having fun with some classic radio
calls of great moments, not just for the Wildcats but
around the SEC. Pro sports. Should be fun to listen
to some memorable calls from some legendary announcers. But first up,
(00:44):
as we get to our Wildcat News of the Day,
presented by Giuseppes of Lexington, We're going to start off
with an interview from earlier this spring with Josh Braun,
the offensive lineman who transferred in from Arkansas, and he
talks about putting together a new offensive line with a
lot of guys who haven't played together before.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Yeah, the challenge is just recreating a game scenario before
we actually get to the season. And so when the
bullets start flying week one, Week two, you have to
know how you're going to handle it, and you have
to have gone through it through workouts like we did today.
Walk throughs. You have to have high energy, high stress
environments that you can work through as an offensive line
to really come together and see how each part of
(01:25):
the offensive line operates under pressure and how each guy
responds to what we're being asked of right now. What
we're trying to do is get the mental side of it,
how you attack each rep in the workout.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
Foundation of Stoops's success has been the big blue wall.
That's been the run game, protecting a quarterback, all that,
because it dictates the entire game. I know you guys
are aware of that, aren'tswer.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Yes, sir. In the SEC games are one in the trenches,
and if we want to have a successful season, it's
up to the offensive line to set the standard for
the team. And that's what we're working on right now.
We want to be an offensive line that leads. We
don't want to hold back our team in any way.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
How much different assist world this week?
Speaker 2 (02:03):
So I've been asked that question a lot because this
is the second time I've transferred to an SEC school
in particular, and what I always say is the SEC
is the SEC. To compete in this league, you have
to have a certain standard, you have to operate a
certain way, and so transferring within the SEC is not
easy per se, but it's definitely familiar. And so each
(02:23):
program is gonna do basically the same thing. There will
be little nuances, and in those nuances that's where you
get teams that are going to excel or the teams
that are gonna be held back. And I think what
we have here is gonna set us up to excel
in the season.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Why why Kentucky?
Speaker 4 (02:38):
What was it that kind of and when I want
to go play there?
Speaker 2 (02:43):
Coach Wolford. So, Coach Wolford recruited me out of high
school to South Carolina. We met. He actually told me
yesterday that my name and his phone is still Josh Braun,
twenty seventeen recruit. So we've known each other seven seven years.
And so when I decided to get in the portal,
he was interested, and I knew I wanted to play
for a coach like coach Wolford, one that will demand
(03:03):
your best every day and I know he's going to
get the best out of me, and if I do
what he asks of me, I will be successful. I
know that we have running backs and wide receivers and
tight ends who are going to make the plays. We're
going to make the blocks, who are going to be selfless.
And as an offensive line, that's important for us because
we're never going to touch the ball in most of
the center.
Speaker 5 (03:20):
And so.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
When the skilled players also embrace the blocking role and
then where they're showing that through the walkthroughs, through the plays,
we have trusted them and in turn they trust in us,
and that's where an offense is built.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
Opening segments presented by Giuseepees of Lexington. Our opening segment
of Wildcat News each Day, presented by Giuseppees of Lexington.
Welcome back into the Leach Report, and I am welcoming
in a couple of colleagues here for this show and
the rest of it's going to be on. Just some
classic old radio calls and a few stories worked in
(03:56):
from interviews. Dick Gabriel, thank you, thank you you, and
Darren Hedrick thank you for coming in as well. Absolutely,
we're all favorite subject here, radio guys. We love some
of these classic things. We'll start out with a UK
segment here. The first thing we're gonna hear is. We'll
hear these and we'll do them back to back and
(04:17):
then we'll talk about him. First one is Kaywood Ledford,
he and Ralph Hacker on the call in Saint Louis
in nineteen seventy eight when Kentucky won its first national
championship in twenty years, beating Duke ninety four to eighty eight.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
Tucky leading ten seconds left, back to Macy, back to
Roby Toby, down to James Lee. Lee driving with it
goes under Dump ninety four eighty eight and there's the
last guy in Oh were good? Tucky wins it tightey
four eighty eight after twenty years. A second look wild
Cat when the spa a cat Jiffie tiny four rady
(04:52):
eight over the new food ups and James Lee.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
They were starting the music to head to the break
already at that point. And then the next clip is
from nineteen fifty eight. This was Claude Sullivan on the call.
The game was at Freedom Hall, Kentucky beat Seattle to
win its fourth national championship.
Speaker 6 (05:10):
For right off up, Kentucky has a twelve point late
alson Baylor takes my last shot of the ball game,
no good, and the pay by.
Speaker 7 (05:19):
The nice No champions Kentucky wild Cats.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
So that was Claude Sullivan's version of a national championship call. So, Gabe,
you grew up here in Kentucky, so you're familiar with
obviously both of those guys. We grew up listening to
you and I listening to Kaywood, Darren Group listening to
John Ward down in Tennessee. Yeah, but just two different
guys Kentucky announcers calling national championships.
Speaker 8 (05:45):
And you know when you listened back to back like that,
there is a similarity in tone of those two announcers.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
It's really interesting.
Speaker 8 (05:53):
But I always love that call by Claude because his
emotions get away from him just for a split second.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Same with Kawood.
Speaker 8 (06:01):
But you know, Claude just kind of lost his place
for just a moment. But I'm glad you mentioned elgend
Baylor because that might have been the best player in
the game. Uh, you know, in that game in particular.
But I was in Saint Louis. In fact, I was
calling the game for the campus radio. Say, nobody listened,
but we needed we should, We should have your call.
Yeah you don't want to hear that, but no, that
was that was fun. And you know, the great thing
(06:23):
and Tom knows this, and and fans who are familiar
remember Joe b emptied the bench in the last minute
and a half or so, and then Duke started to
catch up, and here came the starters again. And that's
why James Lee and Kyle and Roby were in the
game for that, James Lee, Dunk and Darren Wohend.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
You you know you're in a situation like that when
you know it's championships on the line. You know that
whatever you say, you know you could be in that
situation for Kentucky Withens basketball or Kentucky baseball. You know
what you're going to say is going to live on.
Whenever I've talked to students groups, I said, we'd all
like to come up with do we do? You believe
(07:02):
in miracles? But the first thing is just get the
meat and potatoes, make sure you get the score right
and things like that.
Speaker 9 (07:08):
Yeah, that was one of the first things taught to
me by my mentors was just get get the play
and then take a breath and then fill in with
whatever else you want. And you know, there there have
been times this year I've had the opportunity to call
some championships, obviously going to the College World Series with
Kentucky Baseball its tops. And I can tell this story
(07:28):
because I've told it to other people. That's probably the
only time in my career where I had a small
note card with a couple of bullet points written down,
just because of the magnitude of that moment.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
And it was not a script, but just right. You
wanted to make sure you got right because it was like,
that's their first one. Don't screw that up. Man, You
did a great appreciate that. And yeah it has a
long afterlife. Yeah it does, it does or whatever. That's right,
that's right.
Speaker 8 (07:55):
I've run those times myself well.
Speaker 9 (07:59):
And just real quick, I want to say, listening to
Kaywood and then Claude back to back, it's amazing to
hear Kaywood sort of has that more modern voice that
you hear on radio now, where Claude still has that
old fashioned, you know news where the newsreel type of
cadence and voice. And it's really interesting to hear that
back to back.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Let's hear another one from kaw. This is nineteen seventy five,
the Mid East Regional final game. I think you were
there in dating for this one. Kentucky upsets Indiana ninety
two to ninety Yeah, Tarver.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
Kentucky upset Indiana.
Speaker 10 (08:29):
Nighty Go to Night is Bobby Knight's going The true
coach study is which uses the second a.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
Hand of Johan.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
And Kwit and Ralph. We're great partners and Kay would
calls the play and Ralph gets a jab a jab
a note there that you know, Kentucky fans loved, you know.
Speaker 8 (08:48):
One of the ironic things about that. Bob Knight was
a huge Ka Lidford fan.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
That's huge. They would work together later on Final.
Speaker 8 (08:56):
And worked on the nineteen seventy nine because Indiana was
not involved, so you know, they did the Final four
and he did such a great job prepping okay because
he said, I didn't want to let Kaywood down. That
was one of the best radio broadcast you'll ever hear.
Keavid Ldford and Bob Knight.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
How about that?
Speaker 6 (09:11):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (09:12):
The story is legendary about what Joe B. Hall his
players have talked about this. He wrote some things on
a board in their locker room before the game. And
remember this was a game that they were playing an
Indiana team that had beaten them by twenty four in
Bloomington in December, Kentucky puts itself back in a position
to be playing for a spot in the Final four
(09:33):
against an undefeated Indiana team that Bobby Knight, to his
dying day would say was even better than the one
that did go undefeated and win the title the next year.
And they had I think almost the same team attact,
but one different guy in seventy five Kentucky upsets them,
and this was what joeby Hall here. This is a
clip from an interview later on after he had retired,
(09:56):
where he tells the story of what it what had
happened in the Kentucky locker room prior to the games amazing.
Speaker 5 (10:04):
Before we came out. We went to the locker room
after we'd warmed up, and there was a chalkboard there,
and all the players sat down from the chalkboard and
I didn't say anything for about a minute two minutes,
and then I turned around. I wrote on the chalkboard.
(10:25):
I can't remember exactly, but it was something like a
ladder bus State Police Coliseum. I wrote those four things
on the blackboard, and the players looked at it, and
so I turned around to them, I said, fellas when
we cut the net down today, I want to use
(10:47):
a ladder and I want taping scissors. I don't want
a knife. Don't want anybody getting hurt climbing up on
the backboard. We'll cut the nets down with a knife
with scissors from the ladder. And I said, then we'll
all go back on the bus together, because this isn't
(11:08):
our last game this season. You won't go with your
parents or your friends. We'll all ride on the bus together.
And I said, when we crossed the Oi River, the
state police will pick us up and give us an
escort back to Memorial Colisseum, where we'll have the greatest
(11:29):
celebration the school's ever seen. And so help me. We
played the game with that kind of confidence.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
It was Poetie amazing that a coach would put that.
I guess the team that had beat you by twenty
four and that's undefeated, and you're going to write that
on the board. What the players must have thought at
that moment.
Speaker 8 (11:50):
Well, I talked to the players a lot of them
when they had the reunion here, when they did the
fiftieth anniversary.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
Good lord, fifty years. But then he's just exactly right.
Speaker 8 (12:00):
They were like, what is he doing, what is this?
Speaker 1 (12:03):
What is he right?
Speaker 8 (12:04):
You know, they were so confused, but that that did
give them confidence. But they also said they were laying
in wait for Indiana. Of course, Indiana fans, well, Scott
may broke his arm, and Scott Maye did play in
the game. He wasn't one hundred percent, but that wasn't
a twenty four point turnaround kind of guy.
Speaker 11 (12:20):
Uh.
Speaker 8 (12:20):
And that was to this moment. And I've seen a
lot of Kentucky games. What's the greatest game? I always
go back to that when they go nineteen seventy five,
is that you had to be there fantastic.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
When when cal made his comment about the five guys
in the draft, was the greatest night in Kentucky basketball?
I remember thinking at the time, well, the best it
could be is ninth because they had eight nights. It
was eighth because at that point they had seven national championships. Actually,
the best it could have been would have been ninth
(12:51):
because that Indiana game would be on there with along
with all the.
Speaker 8 (12:54):
Chap and Kevin Greevy has gone on to say, you
know that they hated losing to UCLA in the finals,
but he's said that was kind of our championship game.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
Yeah, beating Indiana like that. Need to get to a break.
It is The Leach Report, pre recorded edition. Darren Hendrick,
Dick Gabriel joining me. We're talking some old time classic
radio calls and we'll continue in just a moment here
on The Leach Report, presented by Bob Kat Enterprises. Welcome
back into The Leach Report, coming to you from the
Clark's Pumping Shop studio. Return, Refresh and refuel at Clark's.
(13:23):
Darren Hendrick, Dick Gabriel joining me. Here, we're playing some
classic radio calls. Been talking mostly from the Kentucky or
really exclusively from the Kentucky perspective so far. We're gonna
do a little bit more of that. We'll get into
some games outside the Wildcats in the second half of
the show. Darren, you grew up in Tennessee. You grew
up listening to John Ward, that's for sure. Kaywood Lefford, right, Yeah,
that's exactly right.
Speaker 9 (13:44):
And always his cadence and his descriptions and just the
way he did things. Always, he really was my true
inspiration for getting into radio play by play.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
Same for me with kay Wood and Gabe. I'm guessing
for you as well. Yeah, yeah, And in seventy six,
Kentucky and Tennessee played on the football field. Kentucky hadn't
been to a bowl game in twenty five years, and
they would get a bull bid if they won at Tennessee.
They were six and four and they went down there
(14:16):
and won seven to nothing and a game. But I
think you told me you covered the game right that Kentucky,
let's see, wouldn't win there again until eighty four and
then not again until twenty twenty in Knoxville. And fran
Cursey had the coach the Kentucky team at that time,
(14:36):
and I've got a clip. I was going through some
old cassettes over the holiday weekend and cleaning out some
stuff in the office and found this interview I did
with coach Kersey. I think it was just a phone interview,
but he tells a story about that seventy six team
and then seventy seven they went ten and one, and
what their mindset was going into that Tennessee game that
they had to win to get to a bowl. And
(14:56):
he also tells a great story about the crowd noise.
This is free and Curcy, you have to.
Speaker 12 (15:02):
Believe that you got a chance to win. They go
to certain teams. If you don't go to a certain
games and say, you know, I don't think we can
beat the LSU down there, then you don't have a chance.
But something bad is gonna happen during that game. You're
gonna say, oh, here we go. Then you never you
never gained it back. These guys believe they could win
every game, and they almost did it. That group, they
were a pretty solid group. But the thing I remember
(15:23):
the most, you remember gotten by the name of Buckshot Underwood.
Buckshot was on our staff. He was just an old
fellow helping us out. But the Tennessee had a tradition
they always put the football team the opposing football team
right behind the bench where the band was, and they
had these loud speakers. I mean, it was so brutally
hard to even talk to your players and talk to
people that you couldn't hardly make sense, you know. So
(15:45):
I said, buck Shot, I gave him these clippers. I said, now,
right before the game, about five minutes, you reach it
high as you can reach, and you clip those damn speakers.
We can't hear anything going on. As sure as heck.
Old Buckshot were not there like an electrician. We had
a peaceful sideline for the rest of the game.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
That's a great story.
Speaker 12 (16:05):
That's true.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
You're getting I mean, did you get any reaction here
from Tennessee people.
Speaker 12 (16:11):
Who I don't care? What are they gonna do?
Speaker 1 (16:13):
Isn't that great story? I had never heard that story
till you shared it with me. Amazing.
Speaker 8 (16:19):
Yeah, And you know, I you know what I thought
right away was when they won in eighty four. Jeff
Picoro's on that team, and he said after the game,
they were standing on the bench yelling at the fans.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
Play Rocky Top.
Speaker 4 (16:30):
Now.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
One of the Kentucky football clip this one Darren provided.
This is Claude Sullivan nineteen fifty three game. Was it
against Tennessee?
Speaker 9 (16:39):
Yeah, against Tennessee at Stolefield? And I believe it might
have been Bear Bryant's last game Kentucky.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
All right, let's hear that. Kentucky up to the Tennessee
twenty four turned down a nine.
Speaker 13 (16:47):
Bob Hardy Mosaan nating big yannag He slipts balls hams.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
To Polone Colone.
Speaker 11 (16:52):
Down to the Tennessee twenty the fifteen to ten to five.
He scored.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
Bob Hardy almost bound down because Apple Kicking Party's Kick
Tour for three, a big one right here, and a
very important Tanna say he's kick called three of theirs.
Speaker 6 (17:08):
Here's the Snap Party Kicks Good.
Speaker 13 (17:12):
Twenty seven twenty one, and here's the cloud right now.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
So that was a Claude Sullivan clip. And gab you
said you'd not heard him do football not.
Speaker 8 (17:22):
Yeah, not not until today.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
That was great, all right in that clip. Oh yeah,
when we come back, we'll get into some calls around
the SEC, maybe some national stuff. Have some more fun
with these classic radio moments in the way they were
called by some memorable announcers. It is the Leach Report,
presented each day by Bobcat Enterprises, and we will continue
(17:45):
here in just a couple of moments. We are back
into the Leach Report. This is a pre recorded edition here.
I'm taking some vacation time and Friday was a hard
day to find a sub with remotes and different things.
So Bro, Dick, Gabriel and Darren Headrick into the studio
with me. We're playing some classic old radio calls and
interview clips and having a lot of fun with this.
(18:06):
Hopefully you guys are as well. One of our great
partners here on the Leach Reports Cornbread Hemp, and they
have their new infused Seltzers and they have less than
fifty calories per can five milligrams of hemp that gives

Let's play some classic college calls, guys. One of the
legendary announcers of the South Larry Munson of the Georgia Bulldogs.
He also called Vandy games for a time, but he
(18:47):
became legendary calling the Dogs. First one we have for
you is in nin that Both of these are from
the nineteen eighty season when Georgia won the national championship.
This is herschel Walker was a freshman but didn't start
in his first game, but he came in late. They
were trailing Tennessee. And this is herschel Walker's first touchdown
as a Georgia Bulldog.
Speaker 13 (19:07):
This has not been a night for old Lady look,
Georgia knocking on the door there on the Tennessee sixteenth.
Speaker 4 (19:13):
Tennessee has dominated this one.
Speaker 6 (19:16):
They gave us a break.
Speaker 13 (19:17):
We couldn't use it.
Speaker 4 (19:18):
Then we gave him a couple fifteen.
Speaker 13 (19:20):
To two Tennessee leading crowd roaring against Georgia, trying to
make him drop it so they can't hear.
Speaker 10 (19:26):
We handed off to Herschel.
Speaker 4 (19:27):
There's a whole five ten cloud. He's running over people.
Oh you hershel Walker, My god, on money, you ran
right through two men. Herschel ran right over too man.
Speaker 11 (19:40):
They had him dead away inside the nine.
Speaker 4 (19:43):
Herschel Walker went sixteen yards.
Speaker 13 (19:45):
He drove right over Orange Church, just driving and running
with those big fives.
Speaker 6 (19:50):
My god, a freshman, there's.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
So much in the head.
Speaker 8 (19:54):
If Munson were going for a job and gave some
suit that tape said I want to be your man,
they would have thrown him out the door, and they
would have missed out on that kind of great Now he.
Speaker 9 (20:05):
Would have been perfect in the National Hockey League. Oh yeah,
imagine him as a hockey.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
Gosh, he was perfect where he was. Munson was a
we They go, oh yeah, book. I grew up listening
to Kay would and Kay would never did that. So
I've never done that. Uh, John was John wore.
Speaker 9 (20:24):
His number one thing was be professional. That's all say.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
But for Munston, God bless him, it worked. It was.
It was part of his deal. And here's the probably
the most famous. Later that year, George is playing against
Florida and Georgia's would eventually go on to be an
undefeated champion, but looked like it was going to lose
and maybe lose out on a shot at the national championship.
They were trailing down it that they used to call
(20:49):
the world's biggest cock outdoor cocktail party in Jacksonville, the
Georgia Florida game. And George is backed up in a hole.
It looks like they're beat times running short. And here's
some picking up the call.
Speaker 13 (21:01):
Fact third down on the eighth in trouble, got a
block behind him, gonna throwing a round completely the twenty
five to the thirty.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
Lynch got thirty.
Speaker 13 (21:08):
Five, forty Linden's got forty five, fifty forty five forty
front Lindsay twenty five, twenty fifty five.
Speaker 10 (21:15):
Please you stop, lend you stop, lend you shock.
Speaker 13 (21:25):
Well, I can't believe it. Ninety two yards and Lindsay
really got in a foot race.
Speaker 11 (21:30):
I broke my chair.
Speaker 13 (21:31):
I came right to a chair, a metal steel chair
with about a five inch cushions.
Speaker 4 (21:36):
I broke it.
Speaker 13 (21:37):
The boots came apart. 'll say you well, say him
well down. Now they do have to renovate this thing.
You'll have to rebuild it.
Speaker 11 (21:45):
Now, this is this is incredible.
Speaker 13 (21:49):
You know this game has always been called the world's
greatest cocktail party. Do you know what is gonna happen
here tonight? End up at Saint Simon's and check the
island and all those places were all those dog people
have got these condominiums for foured age. Man, is there
gonna be some property destroyed tonight? Dog Don Tom, we
(22:12):
were gone.
Speaker 10 (22:12):
I gave up.
Speaker 1 (22:13):
You done miracle, we were gone.
Speaker 6 (22:19):
I gave that.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
I can never decide what's my favorite part of that
dog people with those Yeah, but while he's calling them
like Ronny and then no touching, there's Loundays. Godlnday's got me.
Oh my god.
Speaker 8 (22:33):
Every time I played it on my show, I have
to do it right before a commercial because.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
I can't stop laughing. It's so great. It's just the
SEC Network did a uh one of those SEC story
things on the legendary announcers of the SEC. But that
was great, right, but Munson was probably featured in there.
Speaker 10 (22:52):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
Here's another one. This is the Auburn announcer Men's basketball
nineteen eighty eight. Jim Fife from Paintful Kentucky was the
voice of Auburn at that time, and the Kentucky was
number one. It was a weeknight game, uh, maybe early
in the SEC season and thinking Auburn comes in and
upsets number one Kentucky on a shot from the corner
(23:13):
by John Taylor. Here is how the Auburn network called that.
Speaker 4 (23:18):
Taylor, I'm love the three quarter time seconds to go
three part of my Taylor.
Speaker 10 (23:24):
Sifty three Bisy tw Auburn Rick Kevin in the park,
cart Long.
Speaker 4 (23:28):
Cott, Oh good, Taylor, Cotyl, look at all wait cover Clver,
He's Hilver, Albert Calvern, Calvert London. Believe that's done it, Olive,
that's so good.
Speaker 10 (23:41):
The top right Kentucky walk Haarn rob Arena fifty three fifty.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
So I'm just trying to imagine if Keith Madison had
done that in that regional super Regional final working with
you did just let him go.
Speaker 8 (23:57):
Again, I was at that game. You might have been
at that game and I saw him go. I was
they could not shape. Remember the Auburn just wouldn't go away? Yes,
and Kentucky just played uninspired last Yeah, yeah, it was
a boring game up it well wasn't boring because it
was tense, but right in front of the bench, he
through that through that shot.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
In one more clip, this is uh the University of
California network. We've all seen the video of UH the
CAL player run it at Stanford. Bands coming on the
field as the game is and and Cows gets the kickoff.
Looks like they're beating. They're doing all these laterals, and
the band starts on the field because I think the
(24:34):
game's over and it's not. And here's how it sounded
on the CAL network. I mean, it'll probably try to
swim it, and he does walk on blue and the
barons have to get.
Speaker 4 (24:44):
Out about.
Speaker 10 (24:46):
Roger along the sideline on otherwise they'll kill a deep
trouble and real they tried.
Speaker 11 (24:51):
To Hello, they got they got the party the bear,
but the bands are on the field. They were play
call over the play.
Speaker 10 (25:17):
Oh my god, I'm most amazing stational traumatics, her rinding,
exciting trollie finishing the history of college football.
Speaker 4 (25:28):
California, the Big Game over Sacker. Oh, excuse me by
my voice, but.
Speaker 11 (25:35):
I have never never paid anything like.
Speaker 4 (25:38):
It in the history of I have ever play a game.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
Oh my goodness, how many that may have set a
record for adjectives.
Speaker 10 (25:47):
You know.
Speaker 9 (25:47):
The one play that that reminds me of and the
more modern era of radio is Rod Bramblett at Auburn
and the kick six. Yeah, and you know Rod missed
him greatly, but man want to call that one was yeah?
Speaker 8 (26:00):
And really that that was the greatest play the cow
game until that Auburn game, I think. But then when
you you mix Yeah, but when you mix in the band,
it kind of stands along.
Speaker 11 (26:11):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
And by the way, that when and some of these
come courtesy of the Miley collection John Miley UH down
in Evansville, this hobby of recording games. God bless him,
thankfully he did that and UH and then he uh
got eventually licensed by Major League Baseball and some other
entities to market his uh to be able to sell
(26:33):
these uh this audio and I got some stuff from
him over the years, had him on shows, got to
know him, nice, nice gentleman in his nineties now and
he is uh It donated his collection to Indiana University.
It's a press in the process of being digitized. He's
from Evansville and uh it will be available online at
some point. Uh at Indiana University. It's just an amazing collection. Anyway,
(26:57):
we need to get to a break. We'll continue with
the classic calls when we come right back here on
The Leech Report Radio Network presented by Bob Kat Enterprises.
Welcome back into the Leech Report from the Clark's Pumping
Shop studio. Return, Refresh and refuel. Darren Hedrick, Dick Gabriel
joining me for this pre recorded edition of the show
as we play some old classic radio calls and interview clips.
(27:20):
We've got the voice of UK Baseball here, so we're
gonna do a little baseball segment. One that Darren provided
us as Marty Brenneman calling Pete Rose's record breaking hit
when he beat Ty Cobbs record hit forty one to
ninety two of Pete's career. And here's how Marty Brenneman
and Joe knuxall called it on the REDS Radio Network.
Speaker 14 (27:39):
He levels about a couple of times, Shall kick Senny Fires,
Rose wains.
Speaker 11 (27:47):
Hith number forty one ninety two, Hey Live.
Speaker 14 (27:52):
Drive Sayle into Love Center, Payel A clean basin.
Speaker 11 (27:58):
Is PANDEMONI. I'm here.
Speaker 1 (28:01):
Marty and Joe guys worked together for years legendary friendship
as well as a broadcast duo, and Joe kind of
stepped on the play by player guy there, but it
kind of worked. It did, It really did.
Speaker 9 (28:13):
And you know, Marty always impressed me by staying under
control so well in the big moments and the verbiage,
the words that he would find hoisted on the shoulders
or its pandemonium at Riverfront and and things like that.
It's just an amazing play by play voice in the majors.
Speaker 8 (28:31):
I remember, and we were all wondering, like what if
it's Joe's turn behind the mic, you know, but I
think the Reds Network kind of orchestrated it. But you
knew you'd hear Nuxie because you heard him anyway on
a home run get out, you know, so it was
just perfect.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
The next one we have is John Sterling on the
Yankees Network. This was Aaron Judge hitting his sixty second
home run, which set the American League record.
Speaker 14 (29:01):
Here's the one to one song on there goes Deep
loved It is high, hit us Far, He us gone
number sixty two to set the new American League record.
Aaron Judge hits his sixty second. All the Yankees out
(29:21):
of the dugout to greet him.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
Just think of it.
Speaker 14 (29:25):
Three Yankee right fielders, the Babe hitting sixty to twenty seven,
the Jolly Roger hitting sixty one in sixty one, and
now Aaron Judge hits his sixty second home run, the
most home runs any American League er as hit in
a single season. And the American League has been alive
(29:48):
for one hundred and twenty years.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
This is judgment day case close. That was John Sterling.
I don't know if he had those facts on a
you know know card there just recalling it and it
was a perfect It was the perfect history lesson there
at that moment.
Speaker 9 (30:06):
Can you tell he likes show tunes in Broadway.
Speaker 8 (30:10):
Rogers And he's so deliberate in his call with that
gorgeous voice, And I got to think that when he
went into it is high, I guarantee the ball was
already out of the ball.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
Yes, yes, but it was great. Let me play one
here from a television call. I remember growing up, my
dad was a great baseball fan. So we watched the
Monday night game of the Week on NBC, and it
just so happened that it's where Hank Aaron broke Babe
Bruce record hit his seven hundred and fifteenth home run
on a Monday night against the Dodgers. He had tied
(30:41):
Ruth Record an opening day at Riverfront Stadium off Jack
Billingham and the Reds. But this was Vin Scully on
the NBC TV call of seven fifteen for Henry.
Speaker 6 (30:50):
Aaron one ball and nose Branks Aaron Wade in the outfield,
deep and straight away fast fall of the high five
of the.
Speaker 4 (30:58):
Deep left cutter field.
Speaker 11 (31:00):
That goes back to the fancy God.
Speaker 6 (31:09):
What a marvelous moment for baseball. What a marvelous moment
for Atlanta and the state of Georgia. What a marvelous
moment for the country in the world. A black man
is getting a standing ovation in the Deep South for
breaking a record of an all time baseball idol, and
(31:30):
it is a great moment for all of us and
particularly for Henry Aaron.
Speaker 1 (31:35):
Just thought a really appropriate history lesson in that moment,
we talked about the history with the Sterling call too,
and people need to remember.
Speaker 8 (31:46):
You know, you may ask yourself, now, why did he
say that, Well, that we're going back then ten years
removed only from the Civil Rights Act being passed in
nineteen sixty four.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
So yeah, he was right on death threats. Yeah, you know.
Speaker 8 (31:59):
And the other thing too, what I loved was that's not,
as we know, the only call that was TV. There was,
you know, a national radio call. There was local radio.
One of the local radio guys, Milo Hamilton, Yes, oh yeah,
who would have eventually become for one year at least
a TV voice of the basketball Wildcats.
Speaker 9 (32:14):
Yeah, Milo, with the there's a new home run Champion
of all Times call. There's a legend surrounding Vin's call
of that. Right after that clip ends, there's this long
pause as he just lets the TV pictures show. The
legend is he got up and went and got a
cup of coffee while all that was to be tempted
to talk.
Speaker 1 (32:31):
Yeah, that's that's right, that's so great. All right, let's
get to a break and then we'll have one more
segment here of this great fun for us and hopefully
for you guys too on this edition of The Leach
Report presented by Bob Kat Enterprises. It is the Leach
Report pre recorded edition of our show for this Friday.
As Dick Gabriel, Darren Hendrick or with me were playing
(32:53):
some old old radio clips of classic calls and interview clips.
Needed reminds you that our Wildcat History notes each day
are presented by Kentucky Roadshow Sports Cards and Memorabilia. They're
on Romney Road here in Lexington and at roadshowcards dot com.
Three Wildcat birthdays on this eighteenth of July. Derek Anderson,
one of Mark Pope's teammates DA celebrating a birthday today.
(33:16):
John Pelfrey, one of the Unforgettables, birthday today. And bam At,
a bio NBA star and part of the great Kentucky
team in twenty seventeen. So happy birthday to all three
of those guys. All right, guys, let's get to a clip.
Ask you guys to submit a few things gave you
sent in one. This is one from the UK radios
(33:39):
my first year doing Kentucky basketball. Oh that's right. So
it was Mike Pratt and I and it was I
think it's still to this day one of the top
five loudest moments in rapp arena. This is the five
and Tayshon Prince going into the Kentucky Sports Hall of Fame,
that announcement coming last week. He and Randall Cobb are
going in. This is Tashawn hitting those five straight threes
(34:02):
to start the game against North Carolina and it ends
with one from uh as they would say now from
the logo for Katelyn Clark. The wing gets it to
Prince straight away, A three in the air.
Speaker 11 (34:11):
Good.
Speaker 1 (34:13):
The Prince left in the circle. I look the three,
got it, gets it off the Prince.
Speaker 5 (34:18):
On the wing.
Speaker 4 (34:18):
He goes around table, then back's out shoots a three.
Speaker 1 (34:21):
Yes, I switch Johnson's got Prince.
Speaker 4 (34:24):
He'll shoot anyone for off the Prince.
Speaker 10 (34:30):
Will you go for five thirty but straight away?
Speaker 11 (34:32):
Yes, I'll tuck this crowd. Wow, oh my goodness, rob arena.
Speaker 10 (34:44):
Is going there.
Speaker 1 (34:46):
There was no way could tell you would ever lose
that game after that starts.
Speaker 8 (34:49):
Steve Moss and I was at KYT at the time, videographer,
senior videographer. He and I got permission to go into
upp Arena the following Monday, and we actually looked because
of the video at the spot on the floor, I
think it was closer to thirty seven feet.
Speaker 1 (35:03):
Wow, amazing. Got a couple of Muhammad Ali clips here.
I was a huge Ali fanger and I Ali shirt
on today as we take this, Uh, this was off
a special on k E T that I recorded this
off of years ago was maybe called Ali's Louisville or something.
And Kaywood Ledford was a TV sportscaster in Louisville in
(35:23):
the in sixty four leading up to the Ali upset
of Sunny listing down in Miami and Kwood was down
there covering it for Whas TV and he knew was
then Cashus Clay very well. And you can tell that
in this interview that Ali did with Kwoods. How would
you're quite sonny listeners?
Speaker 7 (35:43):
Well, Kwood, my strategist will be to move a lot
of fast movement in and out hit and not be
a lot of dance. And let me call my system
train over here, Boudine and he'll tell you, Bodina, what's.
Speaker 11 (35:56):
Going about strategy?
Speaker 10 (35:58):
Like I brought a crime thing, young man, that's what
we're gonna do.
Speaker 1 (36:07):
You had an example, he's an inpiration.
Speaker 7 (36:08):
That's the casting place.
Speaker 1 (36:12):
So Kaywood is talking to Ali. Ali steps away to Bondini,
Brown does the stick and then steps back over as
I was saying, Kaywood, and when they went they were
nosed and nose. That's the great part about that clip.
It was so great. So a couple of nights later,
I guess uh. In Miami, Ali upsets Sunny List in
one of the biggest sports upsets of all time. And
(36:35):
this was Howard Cosell who called the fight for radio.
Get leaves this broadcast spot to go into the ring
after the win for Ali and interviews Ali Hill.
Speaker 4 (36:47):
Young CoA king sigh.
Speaker 5 (36:52):
They told the com tell the truth.
Speaker 4 (36:55):
Gosh, just get that I have upset the world. Gim

First round, he was unique in the greatest sense of
the word.

Speaker 1 (37:37):
Okay, you know what? Did you see?
Speaker 4 (37:39):
Why? You know?
Speaker 1 (37:40):
But got caught up in a moment. We are out
of time. Unfortunately, we got a lot more. Gamee's gonna
use some of this stuff on his Big Blue Insider
Show and we'll let you believe it tonight. Thank you,
gentlemen for coming in. Thank you have a great rest
of your weekend. Everybody from the Lead's report, presented by
Bob gave it enterprisis
This podcast, stuff The Leads Report is presented by Boone's
Butcher Shop in Barnstown at one hundred Old Bloomfield Pike,
family owned and operated since nineteen forty six, with fresh
meat cut on site daily Boones Butcher Shop. I'm taking
some vacation time and today was a day when it
was difficult to line up a guest host, so we
(00:22):
pre recorded a show, and what today is going to
focus on is just having fun with some classic radio
calls of great moments, not just for the Wildcats but
around the SEC. Pro sports. Should be fun to listen
to some memorable calls from some legendary announcers. But first up,
(00:44):
as we get to our Wildcat News of the Day,
presented by Giuseppes of Lexington, We're going to start off
with an interview from earlier this spring with Josh Braun,
the offensive lineman who transferred in from Arkansas, and he
talks about putting together a new offensive line with a
lot of guys who haven't played together before.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Yeah, the challenge is just recreating a game scenario before
we actually get to the season. And so when the
bullets start flying week one, Week two, you have to
know how you're going to handle it, and you have
to have gone through it through workouts like we did today.
Walk throughs. You have to have high energy, high stress
environments that you can work through as an offensive line
to really come together and see how each part of
(01:25):
the offensive line operates under pressure and how each guy
responds to what we're being asked of right now. What
we're trying to do is get the mental side of it,
how you attack each rep in the workout.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
Foundation of Stoops's success has been the big blue wall.
That's been the run game, protecting a quarterback, all that,
because it dictates the entire game. I know you guys
are aware of that, aren'tswer.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Yes, sir. In the SEC games are one in the trenches,
and if we want to have a successful season, it's
up to the offensive line to set the standard for
the team. And that's what we're working on right now.
We want to be an offensive line that leads. We
don't want to hold back our team in any way.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
How much different assist world this week?
Speaker 2 (02:03):
So I've been asked that question a lot because this
is the second time I've transferred to an SEC school
in particular, and what I always say is the SEC
is the SEC. To compete in this league, you have
to have a certain standard, you have to operate a
certain way, and so transferring within the SEC is not
easy per se, but it's definitely familiar. And so each
(02:23):
program is gonna do basically the same thing. There will
be little nuances, and in those nuances that's where you
get teams that are going to excel or the teams
that are gonna be held back. And I think what
we have here is gonna set us up to excel
in the season.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Why why Kentucky?
Speaker 4 (02:38):
What was it that kind of and when I want
to go play there?
Speaker 2 (02:43):
Coach Wolford. So, Coach Wolford recruited me out of high
school to South Carolina. We met. He actually told me
yesterday that my name and his phone is still Josh Braun,
twenty seventeen recruit. So we've known each other seven seven years.
And so when I decided to get in the portal,
he was interested, and I knew I wanted to play
for a coach like coach Wolford, one that will demand
(03:03):
your best every day and I know he's going to
get the best out of me, and if I do
what he asks of me, I will be successful. I
know that we have running backs and wide receivers and
tight ends who are going to make the plays. We're
going to make the blocks, who are going to be selfless.
And as an offensive line, that's important for us because
we're never going to touch the ball in most of
the center.
Speaker 5 (03:20):
And so.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
When the skilled players also embrace the blocking role and
then where they're showing that through the walkthroughs, through the plays,
we have trusted them and in turn they trust in us,
and that's where an offense is built.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
Opening segments presented by Giuseepees of Lexington. Our opening segment
of Wildcat News each Day, presented by Giuseppees of Lexington.
Welcome back into the Leach Report, and I am welcoming
in a couple of colleagues here for this show and
the rest of it's going to be on. Just some
classic old radio calls and a few stories worked in
(03:56):
from interviews. Dick Gabriel, thank you, thank you you, and
Darren Hedrick thank you for coming in as well. Absolutely,
we're all favorite subject here, radio guys. We love some
of these classic things. We'll start out with a UK
segment here. The first thing we're gonna hear is. We'll
hear these and we'll do them back to back and
(04:17):
then we'll talk about him. First one is Kaywood Ledford,
he and Ralph Hacker on the call in Saint Louis
in nineteen seventy eight when Kentucky won its first national
championship in twenty years, beating Duke ninety four to eighty eight.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
Tucky leading ten seconds left, back to Macy, back to
Roby Toby, down to James Lee. Lee driving with it
goes under Dump ninety four eighty eight and there's the
last guy in Oh were good? Tucky wins it tightey
four eighty eight after twenty years. A second look wild
Cat when the spa a cat Jiffie tiny four rady
(04:52):
eight over the new food ups and James Lee.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
They were starting the music to head to the break
already at that point. And then the next clip is
from nineteen fifty eight. This was Claude Sullivan on the call.
The game was at Freedom Hall, Kentucky beat Seattle to
win its fourth national championship.
Speaker 6 (05:10):
For right off up, Kentucky has a twelve point late
alson Baylor takes my last shot of the ball game,
no good, and the pay by.
Speaker 7 (05:19):
The nice No champions Kentucky wild Cats.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
So that was Claude Sullivan's version of a national championship call. So, Gabe,
you grew up here in Kentucky, so you're familiar with
obviously both of those guys. We grew up listening to
you and I listening to Kaywood, Darren Group listening to
John Ward down in Tennessee. Yeah, but just two different
guys Kentucky announcers calling national championships.
Speaker 8 (05:45):
And you know when you listened back to back like that,
there is a similarity in tone of those two announcers.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
It's really interesting.
Speaker 8 (05:53):
But I always love that call by Claude because his
emotions get away from him just for a split second.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Same with Kawood.
Speaker 8 (06:01):
But you know, Claude just kind of lost his place
for just a moment. But I'm glad you mentioned elgend
Baylor because that might have been the best player in
the game. Uh, you know, in that game in particular.
But I was in Saint Louis. In fact, I was
calling the game for the campus radio. Say, nobody listened,
but we needed we should, We should have your call.
Yeah you don't want to hear that, but no, that
was that was fun. And you know, the great thing
(06:23):
and Tom knows this, and and fans who are familiar
remember Joe b emptied the bench in the last minute
and a half or so, and then Duke started to
catch up, and here came the starters again. And that's
why James Lee and Kyle and Roby were in the
game for that, James Lee, Dunk and Darren Wohend.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
You you know you're in a situation like that when
you know it's championships on the line. You know that
whatever you say, you know you could be in that
situation for Kentucky Withens basketball or Kentucky baseball. You know
what you're going to say is going to live on.
Whenever I've talked to students groups, I said, we'd all
like to come up with do we do? You believe
(07:02):
in miracles? But the first thing is just get the
meat and potatoes, make sure you get the score right
and things like that.
Speaker 9 (07:08):
Yeah, that was one of the first things taught to
me by my mentors was just get get the play
and then take a breath and then fill in with
whatever else you want. And you know, there there have
been times this year I've had the opportunity to call
some championships, obviously going to the College World Series with
Kentucky Baseball its tops. And I can tell this story
(07:28):
because I've told it to other people. That's probably the
only time in my career where I had a small
note card with a couple of bullet points written down,
just because of the magnitude of that moment.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
And it was not a script, but just right. You
wanted to make sure you got right because it was like,
that's their first one. Don't screw that up. Man, You
did a great appreciate that. And yeah it has a
long afterlife. Yeah it does, it does or whatever. That's right,
that's right.
Speaker 8 (07:55):
I've run those times myself well.
Speaker 9 (07:59):
And just real quick, I want to say, listening to
Kaywood and then Claude back to back, it's amazing to
hear Kaywood sort of has that more modern voice that
you hear on radio now, where Claude still has that
old fashioned, you know news where the newsreel type of
cadence and voice. And it's really interesting to hear that
back to back.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Let's hear another one from kaw. This is nineteen seventy five,
the Mid East Regional final game. I think you were
there in dating for this one. Kentucky upsets Indiana ninety
two to ninety Yeah, Tarver.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
Kentucky upset Indiana.
Speaker 10 (08:29):
Nighty Go to Night is Bobby Knight's going The true
coach study is which uses the second a.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
Hand of Johan.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
And Kwit and Ralph. We're great partners and Kay would
calls the play and Ralph gets a jab a jab
a note there that you know, Kentucky fans loved, you know.
Speaker 8 (08:48):
One of the ironic things about that. Bob Knight was
a huge Ka Lidford fan.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
That's huge. They would work together later on Final.
Speaker 8 (08:56):
And worked on the nineteen seventy nine because Indiana was
not involved, so you know, they did the Final four
and he did such a great job prepping okay because
he said, I didn't want to let Kaywood down. That
was one of the best radio broadcast you'll ever hear.
Keavid Ldford and Bob Knight.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
How about that?
Speaker 6 (09:11):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (09:12):
The story is legendary about what Joe B. Hall his
players have talked about this. He wrote some things on
a board in their locker room before the game. And
remember this was a game that they were playing an
Indiana team that had beaten them by twenty four in
Bloomington in December, Kentucky puts itself back in a position
to be playing for a spot in the Final four
(09:33):
against an undefeated Indiana team that Bobby Knight, to his
dying day would say was even better than the one
that did go undefeated and win the title the next year.
And they had I think almost the same team attact,
but one different guy in seventy five Kentucky upsets them,
and this was what joeby Hall here. This is a
clip from an interview later on after he had retired,
(09:56):
where he tells the story of what it what had
happened in the Kentucky locker room prior to the games amazing.
Speaker 5 (10:04):
Before we came out. We went to the locker room
after we'd warmed up, and there was a chalkboard there,
and all the players sat down from the chalkboard and
I didn't say anything for about a minute two minutes,
and then I turned around. I wrote on the chalkboard.
(10:25):
I can't remember exactly, but it was something like a
ladder bus State Police Coliseum. I wrote those four things
on the blackboard, and the players looked at it, and
so I turned around to them, I said, fellas when
we cut the net down today, I want to use
(10:47):
a ladder and I want taping scissors. I don't want
a knife. Don't want anybody getting hurt climbing up on
the backboard. We'll cut the nets down with a knife
with scissors from the ladder. And I said, then we'll
all go back on the bus together, because this isn't
(11:08):
our last game this season. You won't go with your
parents or your friends. We'll all ride on the bus together.
And I said, when we crossed the Oi River, the
state police will pick us up and give us an
escort back to Memorial Colisseum, where we'll have the greatest
(11:29):
celebration the school's ever seen. And so help me. We
played the game with that kind of confidence.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
It was Poetie amazing that a coach would put that.
I guess the team that had beat you by twenty
four and that's undefeated, and you're going to write that
on the board. What the players must have thought at
that moment.
Speaker 8 (11:50):
Well, I talked to the players a lot of them
when they had the reunion here, when they did the
fiftieth anniversary.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
Good lord, fifty years. But then he's just exactly right.
Speaker 8 (12:00):
They were like, what is he doing, what is this?
Speaker 1 (12:03):
What is he right?
Speaker 8 (12:04):
You know, they were so confused, but that that did
give them confidence. But they also said they were laying
in wait for Indiana. Of course, Indiana fans, well, Scott
may broke his arm, and Scott Maye did play in
the game. He wasn't one hundred percent, but that wasn't
a twenty four point turnaround kind of guy.
Speaker 11 (12:20):
Uh.
Speaker 8 (12:20):
And that was to this moment. And I've seen a
lot of Kentucky games. What's the greatest game? I always
go back to that when they go nineteen seventy five,
is that you had to be there fantastic.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
When when cal made his comment about the five guys
in the draft, was the greatest night in Kentucky basketball?
I remember thinking at the time, well, the best it
could be is ninth because they had eight nights. It
was eighth because at that point they had seven national championships. Actually,
the best it could have been would have been ninth
(12:51):
because that Indiana game would be on there with along
with all the.
Speaker 8 (12:54):
Chap and Kevin Greevy has gone on to say, you
know that they hated losing to UCLA in the finals,
but he's said that was kind of our championship game.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
Yeah, beating Indiana like that. Need to get to a break.
It is The Leach Report, pre recorded edition. Darren Hendrick,
Dick Gabriel joining me. We're talking some old time classic
radio calls and we'll continue in just a moment here
on The Leach Report, presented by Bob Kat Enterprises. Welcome
back into The Leach Report, coming to you from the
Clark's Pumping Shop studio. Return, Refresh and refuel at Clark's.
(13:23):
Darren Hendrick, Dick Gabriel joining me. Here, we're playing some
classic radio calls. Been talking mostly from the Kentucky or
really exclusively from the Kentucky perspective so far. We're gonna
do a little bit more of that. We'll get into
some games outside the Wildcats in the second half of
the show. Darren, you grew up in Tennessee. You grew
up listening to John Ward, that's for sure. Kaywood Lefford, right, Yeah,
that's exactly right.
Speaker 9 (13:44):
And always his cadence and his descriptions and just the
way he did things. Always, he really was my true
inspiration for getting into radio play by play.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
Same for me with kay Wood and Gabe. I'm guessing
for you as well. Yeah, yeah, And in seventy six,
Kentucky and Tennessee played on the football field. Kentucky hadn't
been to a bowl game in twenty five years, and
they would get a bull bid if they won at Tennessee.
They were six and four and they went down there
(14:16):
and won seven to nothing and a game. But I
think you told me you covered the game right that Kentucky,
let's see, wouldn't win there again until eighty four and
then not again until twenty twenty in Knoxville. And fran
Cursey had the coach the Kentucky team at that time,
(14:36):
and I've got a clip. I was going through some
old cassettes over the holiday weekend and cleaning out some
stuff in the office and found this interview I did
with coach Kersey. I think it was just a phone interview,
but he tells a story about that seventy six team
and then seventy seven they went ten and one, and
what their mindset was going into that Tennessee game that
they had to win to get to a bowl. And
(14:56):
he also tells a great story about the crowd noise.
This is free and Curcy, you have to.
Speaker 12 (15:02):
Believe that you got a chance to win. They go
to certain teams. If you don't go to a certain
games and say, you know, I don't think we can
beat the LSU down there, then you don't have a chance.
But something bad is gonna happen during that game. You're
gonna say, oh, here we go. Then you never you
never gained it back. These guys believe they could win
every game, and they almost did it. That group, they
were a pretty solid group. But the thing I remember
(15:23):
the most, you remember gotten by the name of Buckshot Underwood.
Buckshot was on our staff. He was just an old
fellow helping us out. But the Tennessee had a tradition
they always put the football team the opposing football team
right behind the bench where the band was, and they
had these loud speakers. I mean, it was so brutally
hard to even talk to your players and talk to
people that you couldn't hardly make sense, you know. So
(15:45):
I said, buck Shot, I gave him these clippers. I said, now,
right before the game, about five minutes, you reach it
high as you can reach, and you clip those damn speakers.
We can't hear anything going on. As sure as heck.
Old Buckshot were not there like an electrician. We had
a peaceful sideline for the rest of the game.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
That's a great story.
Speaker 12 (16:05):
That's true.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
You're getting I mean, did you get any reaction here
from Tennessee people.
Speaker 12 (16:11):
Who I don't care? What are they gonna do?
Speaker 1 (16:13):
Isn't that great story? I had never heard that story
till you shared it with me. Amazing.
Speaker 8 (16:19):
Yeah, And you know, I you know what I thought
right away was when they won in eighty four. Jeff
Picoro's on that team, and he said after the game,
they were standing on the bench yelling at the fans.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
Play Rocky Top.
Speaker 4 (16:30):
Now.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
One of the Kentucky football clip this one Darren provided.
This is Claude Sullivan nineteen fifty three game. Was it
against Tennessee?
Speaker 9 (16:39):
Yeah, against Tennessee at Stolefield? And I believe it might
have been Bear Bryant's last game Kentucky.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
All right, let's hear that. Kentucky up to the Tennessee
twenty four turned down a nine.
Speaker 13 (16:47):
Bob Hardy Mosaan nating big yannag He slipts balls hams.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
To Polone Colone.
Speaker 11 (16:52):
Down to the Tennessee twenty the fifteen to ten to five.
He scored.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
Bob Hardy almost bound down because Apple Kicking Party's Kick
Tour for three, a big one right here, and a
very important Tanna say he's kick called three of theirs.
Speaker 6 (17:08):
Here's the Snap Party Kicks Good.
Speaker 13 (17:12):
Twenty seven twenty one, and here's the cloud right now.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
So that was a Claude Sullivan clip. And gab you
said you'd not heard him do football not.
Speaker 8 (17:22):
Yeah, not not until today.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
That was great, all right in that clip. Oh yeah,
when we come back, we'll get into some calls around
the SEC, maybe some national stuff. Have some more fun
with these classic radio moments in the way they were
called by some memorable announcers. It is the Leach Report,
presented each day by Bobcat Enterprises, and we will continue
(17:45):
here in just a couple of moments. We are back
into the Leach Report. This is a pre recorded edition here.
I'm taking some vacation time and Friday was a hard
day to find a sub with remotes and different things.
So Bro, Dick, Gabriel and Darren Headrick into the studio
with me. We're playing some classic old radio calls and
interview clips and having a lot of fun with this.
(18:06):
Hopefully you guys are as well. One of our great
partners here on the Leach Reports Cornbread Hemp, and they
have their new infused Seltzers and they have less than
fifty calories per can five milligrams of hemp that gives
you the buzz without the hangover. And you can check

(18:26):
the sleep gummies which are fantastic, the oils and the
topicals for aches and pains. Check it all out at
cornbreadhemp dot com. This is the good life, all right,
Let's play some classic college calls, guys. One of the
legendary announcers of the South Larry Munson of the Georgia Bulldogs.
He also called Vandy games for a time, but he
(18:47):
became legendary calling the Dogs. First one we have for
you is in nin that Both of these are from
the nineteen eighty season when Georgia won the national championship.
This is herschel Walker was a freshman but didn't start
in his first game, but he came in late. They
were trailing Tennessee. And this is herschel Walker's first touchdown
as a Georgia Bulldog.
Speaker 13 (19:07):
This has not been a night for old Lady look,
Georgia knocking on the door there on the Tennessee sixteenth.
Speaker 4 (19:13):
Tennessee has dominated this one.
Speaker 6 (19:16):
They gave us a break.
Speaker 13 (19:17):
We couldn't use it.
Speaker 4 (19:18):
Then we gave him a couple fifteen.
Speaker 13 (19:20):
To two Tennessee leading crowd roaring against Georgia, trying to
make him drop it so they can't hear.
Speaker 10 (19:26):
We handed off to Herschel.
Speaker 4 (19:27):
There's a whole five ten cloud. He's running over people.
Oh you hershel Walker, My god, on money, you ran
right through two men. Herschel ran right over too man.
Speaker 11 (19:40):
They had him dead away inside the nine.
Speaker 4 (19:43):
Herschel Walker went sixteen yards.
Speaker 13 (19:45):
He drove right over Orange Church, just driving and running
with those big fives.
Speaker 6 (19:50):
My god, a freshman, there's.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
So much in the head.
Speaker 8 (19:54):
If Munson were going for a job and gave some
suit that tape said I want to be your man,
they would have thrown him out the door, and they
would have missed out on that kind of great Now he.
Speaker 9 (20:05):
Would have been perfect in the National Hockey League. Oh yeah,
imagine him as a hockey.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
Gosh, he was perfect where he was. Munson was a
we They go, oh yeah, book. I grew up listening
to Kay would and Kay would never did that. So
I've never done that. Uh, John was John wore.
Speaker 9 (20:24):
His number one thing was be professional. That's all say.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
But for Munston, God bless him, it worked. It was.
It was part of his deal. And here's the probably
the most famous. Later that year, George is playing against
Florida and Georgia's would eventually go on to be an
undefeated champion, but looked like it was going to lose
and maybe lose out on a shot at the national championship.
They were trailing down it that they used to call
(20:49):
the world's biggest cock outdoor cocktail party in Jacksonville, the
Georgia Florida game. And George is backed up in a hole.
It looks like they're beat times running short. And here's
some picking up the call.
Speaker 13 (21:01):
Fact third down on the eighth in trouble, got a
block behind him, gonna throwing a round completely the twenty
five to the thirty.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
Lynch got thirty.
Speaker 13 (21:08):
Five, forty Linden's got forty five, fifty forty five forty
front Lindsay twenty five, twenty fifty five.
Speaker 10 (21:15):
Please you stop, lend you stop, lend you shock.
Speaker 13 (21:25):
Well, I can't believe it. Ninety two yards and Lindsay
really got in a foot race.
Speaker 11 (21:30):
I broke my chair.
Speaker 13 (21:31):
I came right to a chair, a metal steel chair
with about a five inch cushions.
Speaker 4 (21:36):
I broke it.
Speaker 13 (21:37):
The boots came apart. 'll say you well, say him
well down. Now they do have to renovate this thing.
You'll have to rebuild it.
Speaker 11 (21:45):
Now, this is this is incredible.
Speaker 13 (21:49):
You know this game has always been called the world's
greatest cocktail party. Do you know what is gonna happen
here tonight? End up at Saint Simon's and check the
island and all those places were all those dog people
have got these condominiums for foured age. Man, is there
gonna be some property destroyed tonight? Dog Don Tom, we
(22:12):
were gone.
Speaker 10 (22:12):
I gave up.
Speaker 1 (22:13):
You done miracle, we were gone.
Speaker 6 (22:19):
I gave that.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
I can never decide what's my favorite part of that
dog people with those Yeah, but while he's calling them
like Ronny and then no touching, there's Loundays. Godlnday's got me.
Oh my god.
Speaker 8 (22:33):
Every time I played it on my show, I have
to do it right before a commercial because.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
I can't stop laughing. It's so great. It's just the
SEC Network did a uh one of those SEC story
things on the legendary announcers of the SEC. But that
was great, right, but Munson was probably featured in there.
Speaker 10 (22:52):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
Here's another one. This is the Auburn announcer Men's basketball
nineteen eighty eight. Jim Fife from Paintful Kentucky was the
voice of Auburn at that time, and the Kentucky was
number one. It was a weeknight game, uh, maybe early
in the SEC season and thinking Auburn comes in and
upsets number one Kentucky on a shot from the corner
(23:13):
by John Taylor. Here is how the Auburn network called that.
Speaker 4 (23:18):
Taylor, I'm love the three quarter time seconds to go
three part of my Taylor.
Speaker 10 (23:24):
Sifty three Bisy tw Auburn Rick Kevin in the park,
cart Long.
Speaker 4 (23:28):
Cott, Oh good, Taylor, Cotyl, look at all wait cover Clver,
He's Hilver, Albert Calvern, Calvert London. Believe that's done it, Olive,
that's so good.
Speaker 10 (23:41):
The top right Kentucky walk Haarn rob Arena fifty three fifty.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
So I'm just trying to imagine if Keith Madison had
done that in that regional super Regional final working with
you did just let him go.
Speaker 8 (23:57):
Again, I was at that game. You might have been
at that game and I saw him go. I was
they could not shape. Remember the Auburn just wouldn't go away? Yes,
and Kentucky just played uninspired last Yeah, yeah, it was
a boring game up it well wasn't boring because it
was tense, but right in front of the bench, he
through that through that shot.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
In one more clip, this is uh the University of
California network. We've all seen the video of UH the
CAL player run it at Stanford. Bands coming on the
field as the game is and and Cows gets the kickoff.
Looks like they're beating. They're doing all these laterals, and
the band starts on the field because I think the
(24:34):
game's over and it's not. And here's how it sounded
on the CAL network. I mean, it'll probably try to
swim it, and he does walk on blue and the
barons have to get.
Speaker 4 (24:44):
Out about.
Speaker 10 (24:46):
Roger along the sideline on otherwise they'll kill a deep
trouble and real they tried.
Speaker 11 (24:51):
To Hello, they got they got the party the bear,
but the bands are on the field. They were play
call over the play.
Speaker 10 (25:17):
Oh my god, I'm most amazing stational traumatics, her rinding,
exciting trollie finishing the history of college football.
Speaker 4 (25:28):
California, the Big Game over Sacker. Oh, excuse me by
my voice, but.
Speaker 11 (25:35):
I have never never paid anything like.
Speaker 4 (25:38):
It in the history of I have ever play a game.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
Oh my goodness, how many that may have set a
record for adjectives.
Speaker 10 (25:47):
You know.
Speaker 9 (25:47):
The one play that that reminds me of and the
more modern era of radio is Rod Bramblett at Auburn
and the kick six. Yeah, and you know Rod missed
him greatly, but man want to call that one was yeah?
Speaker 8 (26:00):
And really that that was the greatest play the cow
game until that Auburn game, I think. But then when
you you mix Yeah, but when you mix in the band,
it kind of stands along.
Speaker 11 (26:11):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
And by the way, that when and some of these
come courtesy of the Miley collection John Miley UH down
in Evansville, this hobby of recording games. God bless him,
thankfully he did that and UH and then he uh
got eventually licensed by Major League Baseball and some other
entities to market his uh to be able to sell
(26:33):
these uh this audio and I got some stuff from
him over the years, had him on shows, got to
know him, nice, nice gentleman in his nineties now and
he is uh It donated his collection to Indiana University.
It's a press in the process of being digitized. He's
from Evansville and uh it will be available online at
some point. Uh at Indiana University. It's just an amazing collection. Anyway,
(26:57):
we need to get to a break. We'll continue with
the classic calls when we come right back here on
The Leech Report Radio Network presented by Bob Kat Enterprises.
Welcome back into the Leech Report from the Clark's Pumping
Shop studio. Return, Refresh and refuel. Darren Hedrick, Dick Gabriel
joining me for this pre recorded edition of the show
as we play some old classic radio calls and interview clips.
(27:20):
We've got the voice of UK Baseball here, so we're
gonna do a little baseball segment. One that Darren provided
us as Marty Brenneman calling Pete Rose's record breaking hit
when he beat Ty Cobbs record hit forty one to
ninety two of Pete's career. And here's how Marty Brenneman
and Joe knuxall called it on the REDS Radio Network.
Speaker 14 (27:39):
He levels about a couple of times, Shall kick Senny Fires,
Rose wains.
Speaker 11 (27:47):
Hith number forty one ninety two, Hey Live.
Speaker 14 (27:52):
Drive Sayle into Love Center, Payel A clean basin.
Speaker 11 (27:58):
Is PANDEMONI. I'm here.
Speaker 1 (28:01):
Marty and Joe guys worked together for years legendary friendship
as well as a broadcast duo, and Joe kind of
stepped on the play by player guy there, but it
kind of worked. It did, It really did.
Speaker 9 (28:13):
And you know, Marty always impressed me by staying under
control so well in the big moments and the verbiage,
the words that he would find hoisted on the shoulders
or its pandemonium at Riverfront and and things like that.
It's just an amazing play by play voice in the majors.
Speaker 8 (28:31):
I remember, and we were all wondering, like what if
it's Joe's turn behind the mic, you know, but I
think the Reds Network kind of orchestrated it. But you
knew you'd hear Nuxie because you heard him anyway on
a home run get out, you know, so it was
just perfect.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
The next one we have is John Sterling on the
Yankees Network. This was Aaron Judge hitting his sixty second
home run, which set the American League record.
Speaker 14 (29:01):
Here's the one to one song on there goes Deep
loved It is high, hit us Far, He us gone
number sixty two to set the new American League record.
Aaron Judge hits his sixty second. All the Yankees out
(29:21):
of the dugout to greet him.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
Just think of it.
Speaker 14 (29:25):
Three Yankee right fielders, the Babe hitting sixty to twenty seven,
the Jolly Roger hitting sixty one in sixty one, and
now Aaron Judge hits his sixty second home run, the
most home runs any American League er as hit in
a single season. And the American League has been alive
(29:48):
for one hundred and twenty years.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
This is judgment day case close. That was John Sterling.
I don't know if he had those facts on a
you know know card there just recalling it and it
was a perfect It was the perfect history lesson there
at that moment.
Speaker 9 (30:06):
Can you tell he likes show tunes in Broadway.
Speaker 8 (30:10):
Rogers And he's so deliberate in his call with that
gorgeous voice, And I got to think that when he
went into it is high, I guarantee the ball was
already out of the ball.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
Yes, yes, but it was great. Let me play one
here from a television call. I remember growing up, my
dad was a great baseball fan. So we watched the
Monday night game of the Week on NBC, and it
just so happened that it's where Hank Aaron broke Babe
Bruce record hit his seven hundred and fifteenth home run
on a Monday night against the Dodgers. He had tied
(30:41):
Ruth Record an opening day at Riverfront Stadium off Jack
Billingham and the Reds. But this was Vin Scully on
the NBC TV call of seven fifteen for Henry.
Speaker 6 (30:50):
Aaron one ball and nose Branks Aaron Wade in the outfield,
deep and straight away fast fall of the high five
of the.
Speaker 4 (30:58):
Deep left cutter field.
Speaker 11 (31:00):
That goes back to the fancy God.
Speaker 6 (31:09):
What a marvelous moment for baseball. What a marvelous moment
for Atlanta and the state of Georgia. What a marvelous
moment for the country in the world. A black man
is getting a standing ovation in the Deep South for
breaking a record of an all time baseball idol, and
(31:30):
it is a great moment for all of us and
particularly for Henry Aaron.
Speaker 1 (31:35):
Just thought a really appropriate history lesson in that moment,
we talked about the history with the Sterling call too,
and people need to remember.
Speaker 8 (31:46):
You know, you may ask yourself, now, why did he
say that, Well, that we're going back then ten years
removed only from the Civil Rights Act being passed in
nineteen sixty four.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
So yeah, he was right on death threats. Yeah, you know.
Speaker 8 (31:59):
And the other thing too, what I loved was that's not,
as we know, the only call that was TV. There was,
you know, a national radio call. There was local radio.
One of the local radio guys, Milo Hamilton, Yes, oh yeah,
who would have eventually become for one year at least
a TV voice of the basketball Wildcats.
Speaker 9 (32:14):
Yeah, Milo, with the there's a new home run Champion
of all Times call. There's a legend surrounding Vin's call
of that. Right after that clip ends, there's this long
pause as he just lets the TV pictures show. The
legend is he got up and went and got a
cup of coffee while all that was to be tempted
to talk.
Speaker 1 (32:31):
Yeah, that's that's right, that's so great. All right, let's
get to a break and then we'll have one more
segment here of this great fun for us and hopefully
for you guys too on this edition of The Leach
Report presented by Bob Kat Enterprises. It is the Leach
Report pre recorded edition of our show for this Friday.
As Dick Gabriel, Darren Hendrick or with me were playing
(32:53):
some old old radio clips of classic calls and interview clips.
Needed reminds you that our Wildcat History notes each day
are presented by Kentucky Roadshow Sports Cards and Memorabilia. They're
on Romney Road here in Lexington and at roadshowcards dot com.
Three Wildcat birthdays on this eighteenth of July. Derek Anderson,
one of Mark Pope's teammates DA celebrating a birthday today.
(33:16):
John Pelfrey, one of the Unforgettables, birthday today. And bam At,
a bio NBA star and part of the great Kentucky
team in twenty seventeen. So happy birthday to all three
of those guys. All right, guys, let's get to a clip.
Ask you guys to submit a few things gave you
sent in one. This is one from the UK radios
(33:39):
my first year doing Kentucky basketball. Oh that's right. So
it was Mike Pratt and I and it was I
think it's still to this day one of the top
five loudest moments in rapp arena. This is the five
and Tayshon Prince going into the Kentucky Sports Hall of Fame,
that announcement coming last week. He and Randall Cobb are
going in. This is Tashawn hitting those five straight threes
(34:02):
to start the game against North Carolina and it ends
with one from uh as they would say now from
the logo for Katelyn Clark. The wing gets it to
Prince straight away, A three in the air.
Speaker 11 (34:11):
Good.
Speaker 1 (34:13):
The Prince left in the circle. I look the three,
got it, gets it off the Prince.
Speaker 5 (34:18):
On the wing.
Speaker 4 (34:18):
He goes around table, then back's out shoots a three.
Speaker 1 (34:21):
Yes, I switch Johnson's got Prince.
Speaker 4 (34:24):
He'll shoot anyone for off the Prince.
Speaker 10 (34:30):
Will you go for five thirty but straight away?
Speaker 11 (34:32):
Yes, I'll tuck this crowd. Wow, oh my goodness, rob arena.
Speaker 10 (34:44):
Is going there.
Speaker 1 (34:46):
There was no way could tell you would ever lose
that game after that starts.
Speaker 8 (34:49):
Steve Moss and I was at KYT at the time, videographer,
senior videographer. He and I got permission to go into
upp Arena the following Monday, and we actually looked because
of the video at the spot on the floor, I
think it was closer to thirty seven feet.
Speaker 1 (35:03):
Wow, amazing. Got a couple of Muhammad Ali clips here.
I was a huge Ali fanger and I Ali shirt
on today as we take this, Uh, this was off
a special on k E T that I recorded this
off of years ago was maybe called Ali's Louisville or something.
And Kaywood Ledford was a TV sportscaster in Louisville in
(35:23):
the in sixty four leading up to the Ali upset
of Sunny listing down in Miami and Kwood was down
there covering it for Whas TV and he knew was
then Cashus Clay very well. And you can tell that
in this interview that Ali did with Kwoods. How would
you're quite sonny listeners?
Speaker 7 (35:43):
Well, Kwood, my strategist will be to move a lot
of fast movement in and out hit and not be
a lot of dance. And let me call my system
train over here, Boudine and he'll tell you, Bodina, what's.
Speaker 11 (35:56):
Going about strategy?
Speaker 10 (35:58):
Like I brought a crime thing, young man, that's what
we're gonna do.
Speaker 1 (36:07):
You had an example, he's an inpiration.
Speaker 7 (36:08):
That's the casting place.
Speaker 1 (36:12):
So Kaywood is talking to Ali. Ali steps away to Bondini,
Brown does the stick and then steps back over as
I was saying, Kaywood, and when they went they were
nosed and nose. That's the great part about that clip.
It was so great. So a couple of nights later,
I guess uh. In Miami, Ali upsets Sunny List in
one of the biggest sports upsets of all time. And
(36:35):
