Reviews

4.7 out of 5 stars from 95 ratings
  • Way too many commercials

    It’s hard to listen to the show with so many long commercials, then Tom has to get in his commercials also. The hour long show sounds like a 30 minute commercial.

  • Poor editing

    Love the show with Coach Stoops and love our Cats. The editing is terrible. Inserting commercials mid sentence or mid word is very distracting. I have never seen any other podcast edit in commercials this way.

The Will Stein Show presented by UK HealthCare | October 14th 2026
Q: How do you prevent the Sooners from manipulating Kenny Minchie's post-snap reads with their approach and their simulated pressures?
Stein explained that simulated pressure shows blitz before rushing four and dropping seven into coverage. He said Oklahoma disguises pressures well and will be a difficult opponent.
The Will Stein Show presented by UK HealthCare | October 14th 2026
Q: What are the three things you want to be the defining characteristics of Kentucky football under your leadership?
Stein emphasized meaningful education and preparation for life after football, a supportive Kentucky community that invests in players, and a connected staff that models strong family relationships.
BBN Radio |Rachel Lawson and Maggie Davis | October 14th 2026
Q: How do you balance getting the athletes you need within your system with creating left-right balance in the lineup?
Lawson prioritizes left-handed hitters to counter right-handed pitching and wants versatile hitters throughout the order, including players who can bunt, drive in runs, and make defenses cover the whole field.
BBN Radio |Rachel Lawson and Maggie Davis | October 14th 2026
Q: Does a fall exhibition allow the players to have a little fun with the Big Blue Boo theme?
Yes. Players appear on the video board in childhood photos, and the event gives fans a chance to see new Wildcats in front of a large crowd.
BBN Radio | Ricky Lumpkin and Kentucky Stunt | October 21st 2026
Q: How excited are you guys to get going in the spring?
Given says the seniors are excited to compete in the first NCAA Division I season after working and waiting for the sport to grow.
