Welcome everyone to another edition of the KSR pre-show.

Today is Thursday, December 11th.

I'm Billy Rutledge, along with Shannon the dude.

You can give us a call on the Clark's Pump and Shop phone line.

That's 859-280-2287.

Text us at 502-265-66.

And as always, the KSR pre-show is brought to you by Italics.

Find Italian Dining in Lexington, Kentucky at the city center on Main Street. That's where I'm at today here on the seventh floor. Shannon, the dude, is in Louisville. I was just talking a little weather with my guy, the dude. I guess it's supposed to snow tonight. Shannon, you're going to be watching the newscast tomorrow morning to see if you have to go to school tomorrow?

I know, right? That's the thing. I used to love snow when I was a kid. I still do, I guess now, but you know, you would pray for snow so you wouldn't have to go to school the next day, especially like on a Friday where you could get a three-day weekend out of it. The only thing is now, usually we have to go to work when it snows. Although we were just talking, you know, depending on which meteorologist you believe, some of them are saying like two to four inches. And I was like, well, we're going to be driving through four inches of snow tomorrow morning to Somerset? I don't know.

Like, we got to talk about these things.

Maybe not necessarily on the air, but some stuff that we got to, you know, take into consideration.

Yeah, somebody's going to have to make that call. But nevertheless, I have fond memories of turning on my local news and watching the ticker at the bottom.

I wasn't old enough for the radio announcements, but did enjoy that.

Great thing about Bullock County is if it snowed at like a flake, you were out.

The backroads, man.

Shut them down.

Like on a snow night, if somebody went out and peed in the road and it froze, they would

say, all right, school's out. It's done. Nobody go. Same thing in Oldham County. It was just a dusting and they would have to close. Well, we've got a big show today. We'd love to hear from U-859-2-8-7. Kentucky just hired a defensive coordinator maybe 30 minutes ago. We'll touch on that in a second. some drama in the world of college football when it comes to the Michigan head coach.

And it's a game day edition of the KSR pre-show, as we have Kentucky volleyball in the Sweet 16 today versus Cal Poly,

who Shannon is a dangerous 12-seat.

Beat two pretty good teams to get to this point.

And now Craig Skinner has got another matchup today at 3.30 p.m. Historical Memorial Coliseum. So wishing nothing but the best for the KSR pre-show guest. Yeah. Hopefully they have a good crowd out there. I haven't seen the ticket sells. So I don't know if it's sold out yet or not. Hopefully it is, though, for that team because they deserve it. They played so well all year. But you're right. You don't want to just overlook a team because they're a 12 seed. Two teams already did, and they're already out of the tournament. So you can't take this team coming in Cal Poly lightly today. 3.30 is when it all gets going, and best of look to the volleyball team. Yeah, no no doubt Brooklyn, Delay, Eva Hudson, all those ladies. We are wishing you nothing but the best today. Kentucky, the number two overall seed in the tournament. So let's take care of business and then make the region final in the Elite 8 coming up this weekend. But that, again, is at 3.30 p.m. I think it's like 30 minutes after the first game. So just,
