Our boy, Drew, is back.

Hey.

Missed you last week.

Yeah.

I know it wasn't the best way you wanted to spend a week off.

Welcome back.

Yeah, thank you guys for giving me a little time there. I lost a best friend on Monday. I had just been with him a little before, completely unexpected. Everything seemed fine, and you just never know. But, yeah, our world got pretty rocked, and I appreciate you all. Let me step away to grieve, be with his friends and family, help out with some of the services you know i just had a had a long week of trying to be with friends and family and i know that put a lot more on your all's plate but um you all knew manny we lost a good one yeah i mean i i like to say he's i was the best friend but that was the thing about manny i think about everyone in that church thought they were a best friend because that's what he did. And heck, the turnout was huge. The police told us it's one of the longest funeral processions they've ever seen. They didn't have enough cars. Thank you to them. They were having to fly to go get up to the front. You know how they do that, but we laid Manny to rest on Saturday. did a little lap around Rupp Arena, which is very many. Yeah, very cool. Yeah, I'm all out of tears.

It's good to get back to the grind, but yeah, I'm going to be missing him forever. Well, your tribute you put on Instagram that was then also on Facebook was awesome. You summed up what everybody feels. Everybody wishes they had a friend like Manny.

And like you said, he was that friend to everybody. Everybody thought they were his best friend because it was that nice of a guy. But, I mean, you all knew him too. Not nearly as close as me. I talk to him daily, but I mean, you've got plenty of Manny memories. I'm going through photos, and I have several that you're in, including for those that don't really know much about Mani, back in the day when Ryan would do the Wildcat in Rupp Arena, he would always go, get him fired up, Mani over in his seat. So I have several videos of you two, Wildcat and at Tin Roof at SEC and other stuff. But Big Blue Nation lost one of its best. Lost a good one. You know, I was looking through my phone for some pictures, and I found one picture of Mani, and it's him wearing a fireball bottle at Halloween. He did like his fireball. That was one of his favorites. And I will say, might have had a few of those in the last six days as we were celebrating and mourning Mani's life. Well, I saw the one picture.

It's not posted, but you sent us a picture when you're giving the eulogy.

And behind you is Aaron Fleener, belly laughing.
