  • 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.

    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

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
