Reviews

4.7 out of 5 stars from 72 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.

2026-04-21-LEACH REPORT
Q: What's the best single advice you received from another coach?
The best advice was not to take things personal, to stay one play focused, be present, and keep your feet on the ground regardless of external comments.
2026-04-16-LEACH REPORT
Q: What's your scouting read on Zoom Diallo?
Diallo is a big guard with downhill aggression and the ability to create shots for others; he's efficient, plays with a high motor, and could be a fit as a creator in Pope's system, though his fit will depend on surrounding shooters.
2026-04-23-LEACH REPORT
Q: What stood out about Alex Wilkins' game from the Furman games?
Crispin notes his incredible length, potential to add weight, and ability to impact games when needed, while also highlighting the need for him to mature into a playmaker who can elevate others, not just score.
2026-04-07-LEACH REPORT
Q: How is the five-year eligibility debate affecting decisions about returning players?
There is cautious optimism that waivers or policy clarifications could grant players a fifth year, which would influence whether players stay or test the portal, but the final call will depend on NCAA rulings and individual cases.
2026-04-07-LEACH REPORT
Q: What is the outlook for Kentucky's roster in year three under Pope?
The roster will hinge on how well they retain key players, add durable, fit wings and guards via the portal, and how quickly newcomers integrate into Pope's system, with emphasis on position-specific needs like point guard depth.
