Reviews

4.7 out of 5 stars from 73 ratings
  • Production is terrible

    The sound goes from very low to very high depending on who is talking. Conversations are interrupted in mid sentence by a commercial. Hard to listen to, which is inexcusable.

  • Informative and always on point.

    Sharp, insightful, and refreshingly no-nonsense — this podcast cuts through the noise. Every episode delivers accurate stats, smart analysis, and context that actually matters. Tom knows his stuff and never wastes your time with fluff. You walk away feeling informed, not just entertained. A must-listen for anyone who values clarity as a fan of University of Kentucky athletics.

  • Sound issue

    Tom, I love your show but the sound quality is horrible. I turn the volume all the way up but still have a hard time hearing. Then, when it switches without warning to a commercial break, it bursts my ear drums. Keep up the great show and content but please investigate the sound quality issues. Thanks!

  • Thanks Tom!

    Always catch the podcast daily. I appreciate the in-depth interviews, and keeping us all in the UK loop of not only basketball and football, but the other sports teams on campus as well.

    Your coverage of the basketball games (along with “Goose”) are THE BEST! 🤗

    Thanks so much Tom!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

2026-07-08 -LEACH REPORT
Q: What are the implications of the five-year eligibility rule for players like Denzel Aberdeen and others considering a extra year?
There could be several cases using the fifth year as leverage; the rule's implementation may affect transfer decisions and how programs manage veteran players seeking additional eligibility, though outcomes remain uncertain and case-by-case.
2026-07-08 -LEACH REPORT
Q: How will Zoom Diallo adapt to Kentucky's system and what role will ball-screen action play with Milan Mioleveic?
Diallo's size and vision allow him to penetrate and distribute, but his shooting needs improvement; the team may rely on Milan's elite ball-screen exchanges to generate open looks and easy passes, ensuring Diallo can leverage his passing and decision-making while adjusting to a new coach and teammates.
2026-07-09 -LEACH REPORT
Q: What stands out about Zoom Diallo as a leader and on-court facilitator?
Diallo is expected to run the offense, provide on-ball defense, and lead by example; his leadership and playmaking will be central to how well Kentucky functions as a unit.
2026-07-09 -LEACH REPORT
Q: With all the roster turnover, do you think Kentucky will stay where they are or add another piece?
The team looks close to a finished product, with resources stretched if they add someone, so it's unlikely another addition unless the fit is perfect.
2026-07-09 -LEACH REPORT
Q: So Dave, what can you tell us about Justin McBride?
McBride is a versatile scorer who can impact the game both inside and outside, has shown leadership and improved efficiency, and is likely to be a focal point for Kentucky with room to grow.
