Summary

It's an all new episode of the Aaron Torres Sports Podcast, as Aaron is joined by a very special guest: Former Kentucky Wildcat and first round pick of the Miami Heat Tyler Herro. The guys talk about Herro's time in Lexington, his breakout summer league performance and so much more. Before Herro, Aaron is solo discussing: The Big 12-SEC Challenge: On Tuesday reports surfaced that Kentucky will play Texas Tech in the headline game of the Big 12-SEC challenge next season. Aaron explains the incredible rise of the Texas Tech "brand" and why the Red Raiders won't take a dip next year after making the title game? Will this be a matchup of Top 10 teams? Plus, Aaron explains why Baylor-Florida will be a game to watch, and how will Tennessee match up with Kansas in their trip to Phog Allen. Aaron also talks about another recruiting win for Sean Miller, and asks if he is finally ready to break through to a Final Four. Tyler Herro joins the show: Next up, Aaron welcomes former Kentucky Wildcat and current member of the Miami Heat, Tyler Herro, to the show. Herro discusses his breakout performance at Summer League, and the role that Kentucky played in preparing him. Plus, what are his best memories from Lexington? And what is Herro's scouting report on the 2020 Kentucky Wildcats and the 2020 Miami Heat. Also, for those interested in meeting Tyler, he will be doing a basketball camp in Kentucky on August 1 and 2, and a signing in his hometown of Milwaukee at "Braun's" on August 17th!
