  • Louisville Lach

    All of the radio talent in this city and he still has a time slot is a bit baffling. His sidekick Sweeney used to keep him in check. Now that he’s moved on, the show is a cesspool of bad takes and horrible betting advice. Only thing I like is that he’s pro UL. If you don’t like it, go listen to KSR.

  • Louisville lach

    What a narcissist. Same show everyday about how Kentucky is terrible and he is right about everything. Dude should be fired.

  • Louisville Lach is hard to listen to

    Plenty of other UL bias shows in the market so it’s disappointing to have another on the air. Used to be more neutral but sudden shift in the last 9 months.

  • Most biased of sports hosts.

    Without Sweeney to hold his lies accountable, Lach's speeks like everything he says is truth. He sets unreasonable expectation s just so he can come back later and say someone failed. He Gaslights better than Trump. Bring back Sweeney to hold this lying clown accountable.

Rabaut & Co. w @RadioLouie, @YaboyZC & @BenRobertsHL - 09-03-2026 - Hour 1
Q: How much of this is the SEC rule as the main barrier to Mark Mitchell's decision?
The SEC rule is a central hurdle, significantly influencing UK's decision to pursue Mark Mitchell and shaping how the roster could change if the rule is enforced; without it, Mitchell might have stayed with Missouri or Kentucky more easily.
