  • The reviews though 🤭

    The show is bad but the news and info on the cats is solid.

    It is hilarious and not surprising that some chuckle heads come to Apple podcast reviews just to criticize Pope or BBN 😂. I guess facebook isn’t enough.

    Just read the review from Bolony&cheese (bolony misspelled) 👨‍🍳💋 to you sir!

  • Best KY Information

    Always a great source of inside information and expert opinions. It’s also refreshing to hear a show with people who come off as real people, not media stooges. Keep up the great work.

  • It’s…okay fine I guess

    I LOVE UK! It’s the only reason I listen and bc it is connected to KSR. Boring and redundant. But at least it’s a source of UK info I suppose.

  • Good show

    Love the show but it’s like they can’t stop bringing up cal. It’s kinda weird and sad. It’s like they want everyone to know how bad cal is. Thank god for Shawn he’s the only one who doesn’t try to bring cal up. Heck they brought Stephen on for a cal bashing 30 mins. Kinda brings down the vibe of the podcast

  • Kentucky Expectations and Overhypeing

    Amazing how KSR has overhyped this team. The best player on this team was ranked 118th in the country. This team is stiff and not athletic, will not be able to guard SEC caliber players, unable to create a open shot, and the best 2 shooters are inexperienced freshmen who won’t see the floor past Jan 1st. This team plays around 8 schools that are win stuffers and home games that are meaningless. Pope needs to grow up and become a adult head coach instead of dressing like a cheerleader. It’s evide... more

Jack Pilgrim Talks With Joe Tipton About Kentucky Basketball's Recruiting Efforts | Sources Say
Q: How does Kentucky's recruiting approach differ from BYU's in this cycle?
Kentucky is actively pursuing the top targets with a strong front-court need, leveraging NIL/donor discussions and a clear 'one of two top targets' strategy, while BYU is pushing hard to bring Kohler home but faces its own financial and roster constraints.
Jack Pilgrim Talks With Joe Tipton About Kentucky Basketball's Recruiting Efforts | Sources Say
Q: What are the latest developments with Jackson Kohler and Mark Mitchell in Kentucky's recruitment?
Kohler is seen as a front-burner target with BYU and Kentucky both pursuing; Kentucky is pushing hard but the decision remains uncertain, while Mitchell's status hinges on a court ruling that could allow immediate contact and potentially unlock a path to Kentucky if TROs support eligibility.
