Bleav in Kentucky

We definitely enjoyed our conversation with Ty Bryant. We talked about his family as well as his favorite restaurant in Lexington. How is he handling the coaching change? What went into his decision to return to Kentucky? We talked about the similarities and differences that he sees in the new defense and how he sees his role, plus his thoughts on the spring game. What is favorite play? Predictions for his alma mater and who wins out if he had to go against himself? Check out our Linktree! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Kentucky baseball couldn't script a more up and down way to begin the season. Go on the road and sweep UNC Greeensboro, great. Lose stud Tyler Bell to indefinitely to a shoulder injury one game in, not great. That just plain sucks. Now they have to go about the business of the home opener v Morehead State and beyond without him. Coach Lawson and the softball team have already had an up and down start to their season too. Vinny and Cole talked about this and finished up the episode with a little more UK basketball. Go Cats! Check out the Linktree! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

There are no moral victories. Ever. That said, Kentucky didn't get blown out at Florida. They could have, because they were on the verge. Turnovers in the first half were their undoing, as they led to lots of Florida points. Their bigs do what they do, but letting their guards go off too was just too much to overcome. Georgia is limping into Lexington. The Cats need to be aggressive and take their will right off the bat. Go Cats! #BBN Check out our Linktree! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Trent Noah and Teonni Key are playing different roles and in different situations for their respective teams. Both players had nice games in Kentucky's wins over Arkansas in men's and women's basketball. Trent hadn't played much this season. Teonni was fresh off of an injury. If you go back and watch both games you can see their impact in the wins. Fun to see. Fayetteville was just what the doctor ordered for both teams. Check out our Linktree!

Kentucky hosts Tennessee this weekend so we welcomed in Evan Pierce, co-host of The Vol Bros, to preview the game. Tennessee is even more potent offensively than ever.

Kentucky had Texas and let 'em off the hook. Why in the world did the Cats continue to try to challenge Texas up the gut on the goal line? That clearly wasn't working. Maybe nothing would have worked, but at least try something else anyway. Special teams breakdowns were killers. Up next, Tennessee. Go Cats! Follow, subscribe, comment!

Critical, critical, critical. This game is critical for Kentucky. They need to regain control of the South Carolina series and get last year's taste out of their mouths.
