This is the home of the Wildcats. Six thirty WLAP
Welcome Back, Stockyards Bank, Sunday Morning Sports Talk. I'm Anthony
White along with Jack Pilgrim and Larry Vault, coming to
you from Clark's Main Street Market Studios and beautiful downtown Lexington, Kentucky. Return,
Refresh and Refuel, Jack Pilgrim. You nineteen USA basketball playing
(00:28):
playing over in Switzerland. I don't even know what time
it is over there, And Nephew Jaspers pat to step back.
I got a couple questions kind of about Kobe Brale
leaving and what Jasper's doing, but talk about what it
was Jasper doing over in you nineteen team. Is he
(00:48):
Is he living up to expectations, proceeding expectations.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Yeah, I think he, you know, met them. I think
he was just the first the first game for him
to you know, kind of get his feet wet and
you know play alongside that other elite talent and against
other you know, strong talent worldwide. So yeah, I think
he did a pretty good job. One of the core
(01:14):
guards of that group over there as a twelve member roster,
and he's you know, one of the you know, main
guys in that rotation. So I think, yeah, I think
he did, you know, pretty well, scored six points in
the first game, and then yeah, he plays again this
afternoon and then four three four more times throughout the
(01:36):
this week. So really cool opportunity for him, and you know,
representing Kentucky on the world stage. I think it's pretty cool.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Is there a you happen to know? I'm sorry to
put you on spot. Do you happen to know? If
anybody wants to catch the games, is there without having
a boot leg or a hookup that you can watch
the game?
Speaker 2 (01:54):
Yeah, they're They're all on YouTube. The Foeba account does
a really good job of just going and phoeba YouTube
and every game is streamed live in real time, and
not just the USA games, all of them across all
of the you know other in the other countries in
the tournament. They're all included in the streams the replays,
(02:19):
so if you missed yesterday's game, you can go watch
that one. And then they play again today this afternoon.
So I think they're playing France, So yeah, it's it's cool,
cool operation. I think two pm, Jasper's playing again on
on YouTube, so make sure you go go to the
foeba account and go go check them out, no fee free,
totally free you have just like any other YouTube channels.
(02:40):
Pretty cool.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Free ninety nine is the best price you can get
it for both, So go check out Young Jasper. But
speaking of Young Jasper, my correlation to Kobe Brea was
Kobe bred worked his way into a draft pick, which
come in here as Larry yourself, we all have stated
was not something that can happen. Look at our roster
coming in next year, just because I'm close to Jasper,
(03:03):
and you know, I kind of look at our rosters
when when the guys come, look at what they've done
at other levels or other schools, because now we're doing
the transfer portal thing quite frequently. Does that put a
lot of weight on Jasper? The what Kobe did this
year and the expectation and how we influenced our offense
(03:24):
and how he had our offense go and how he
spread the floor or do you think there're those two
things are no correlation at all. Kobe is a great
shooter that Jasper can come in and just be Jasper,
Or does Jasper has to do because we only have
one simple size from last year? Does Jasper have to
come in and do what Kobe did last year in
order from Mark Pope to second year, Like, Okay, I've
(03:47):
been here before, Let's keep this roll and let me
just plug Jasper into that Kobe position. Or can Jasper
just come in to be Jasper? Or do you think
he's gonna be asked to emulate Kobe?
Speaker 3 (03:58):
Well, I think he can come in and just be Jasper.
But I also think that Marf Hope is putting the
expectation out there when he uses words like superstar, most
dangerous score in high school basketball all of last season,
that Marc has put that label on him, and he
is saying Jasper has to be really good for them
to be good. So I think Mark is established that
(04:20):
that's the expectation he has for Jasper. I hope he's right.
That's a lot to put on a building. Last I
had a chance to talk to Mark. He said he
wouldn't say that about somebody if he didn't think they
could handle it, And he said Jasper could handle it
just just fine. So I hope that he's right and
giving the experience like what he's getting now, hopefully it'll
be good for him. I know it wasn't an easy
(04:41):
decision for him to give up about three weeks with
his new UK team to go do this, but that
he wanted to go do it. Hopefully his mom and
dad get their air trouble straightened out now actually get
there to day where they can watch him play. So
but overall, I think Jasper. I don't think pressure bothers
Jasper and never will.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Jack. I don't. I don't know if I absolutely agree
with Larry. I agree with Larry. I won't Jasper toy
be Jasper and I think Jasper, and I think the
coach you have to You can't ask a player to
beat somebody they're not And Kobe, people don't shoot the
way Kobe shoots forty percent from three point range. You
just don't. People don't wake up and just do that.
Although I thought we struggled at times this year before
(05:25):
Pope got here, the thing was we knew that the
guards we had two years ago could not shoot, so
we just clogged the lane like we You can run
whatever offenses you want, you just have to knock down
outside shots. And I think Larry Vault is down playing
Jack Pilgrim. I think Larry Vaut is down playing the
need in Mark Pope's offense for somebody to spread the
floor so people can't just pack the lane and we
(05:48):
because at that point, whenever people's running through the lane,
cutting or just running offense through the lane, they're just
gonna people just gonna be fore arming them and just
mucking it up in there. And if you want to
beat us and beat it from outside. Looking at the roster,
the way the roster is set up, it looks like
if you're gonna count on somebody based off of what
I've seen and what Mark Pope is saying that, I
(06:09):
think Jasper is that guy who you're gonna count on
a knockdown outside shots. I don't know if we have
a ton of people who can knock down all side shots,
is what I'm saying. And Larry Vault seems to think that, huh,
we'll just let Jasper. I think Jasper's gonna be asked
and required to knock down outside shots just so Mark
Pope can continue to run his offenses.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
I think the comparison is Jackson Robinson. I think that's
kind of the role that they recruited him to play
and to kind of take on, you know, where he
can do some on ball stuff, and create and you know,
if the situation calls for a while also being kind
of a you know, catch and shoot in stride and
transition
