Welcome, everyone. It is the KSR pre-show. It is Thursday, December 4th. I am Shannon the dude.

You can give us a call in the Clark's Pubpit Shop phone line at 859-2-2-2287. Bear a Whiskey Thief

call of the day. You can also send us a text at 502-265-6656. KSR. Pre-show is being brought

to by Italics. Fine Italian dining in Lexington. Billy R. Sports alongside this morning actually got up and drove to work today. He's in the studio. What's going on, Billy? How are you? I'm here. Good morning, Shannon. It's great to be with you. Prayers to the guy in the bathroom, just losing it this morning. You know,

you can hear everything in those bathrooms, Shannon. There's no fan on. So a guy in the bathroom was

losing it? Losing what? Losing his breakfast or losing what? I mean, it just like the content

of his stomach was coming out when I came out there in the morning. So best of luck to him and hopefully he has a

great day this morning. But great to be with you, dude. What's up? What's on your mind?

Oh, I don't know, man. Just hanging out, ready to go tomorrow to Glasgow. We are, where,

tomorrow in Glasgow? I believe it's Ashley's furniture. Ashley's furniture. Yeah, you need some new

furniture? Go to Glasgow. I do. I have the most uncomfortable couch of all furniture. Ashley's furniture. Yeah, you need some new furniture? Go to Glasgow.

I do.

I have the most uncomfortable couch of all time.

It's got feathers that sticks out of the cushions and they just randomly will stab you if you're not careful.

Is it because of that cat that's causing just chaos at your house and slashing your leather couch or whatever you got there in your house? No, not the feathers. It's not the cat's fault that the couch stabs us, but the cat will get my clothes and kind of get like a string off every now and then. I mean, these claws are sharp. Yeah. I would not mess around with that very much. So just taking it one day at a time, though, dude. All right. So, yeah, you can join us out there tomorrow when Glasgow will be out there, of course, for the pre-show starting at 9 a.m. Yesterday, Billy, Will Stein, his introductory press conference, some highlights for me. I think, you know, his vision that he said, he was just simply wanting to win and wanting to do it

immediately. He says they'll play an exciting brand of football. They're going to light up the

scoreboard. And, you know, we talked about when Mark Pope was hired as the new basketball coach

here at Kentucky, how he won the press conference. I kind of felt like Will Stein yesterday won the

press conference, didn't you? I do. And, you know, it's easy to say. I think most coaches do win the press conference. Looking back, even some of the worst coaches had good press conferences. But this is a guy. The UCLA guy didn't win the press conference. Remember the guy that was hired there? What did he say? Oh, a bunch of like Mad Lib's mumbo jumbo.

It was terrible.

Well, sometimes the spotlight is too bright, but it didn't seem like that for Will Stein yesterday.

You could hear it in his voice, the passion of being home and reminiscing and telling stories about whether the season tickets that he had or how happy his parents were,
