Welcome in episode 3.12 of the sources say podcast, your go to Kentucky basketball and

recruiting podcasts on the growing KSR

podcast network.

I am your host Jack Pilgrim of Kentucky Sports Radio.

Very happy to be joined once again by the one and only Sean Smith

of Go Big Blue Country. Sean Sean how the heck are you I've been better

I've been a lot better but this this is going to be a good therapy session for an hour

we got to talk about a lot of stuff

that three weeks ago I didn't think we'd be having to talk about. But here we are. Let's get through it.

So I'll be honest I take pride in us as a show being level-headed and trying to be a voice of reason and not using every loss to figure out why the program is in shambles and why we're in

doom and gloom and why we should pack up and abandon the basketball program.

Like I understand this is the most passionate fan base in college basketball for every good reason

and I'm so so grateful that we have an audience that has

those feelings and I feel them too because I am a die-hard Kentucky fan I will

never apologize for that.

I grew up.

Die Hard UK fan went to school there.

It runs through my blood.

It's in my bones.

So I have appreciated our ability to take every game as a micro say okay well this sucked but here's the why and here's what it means moving forward and why we should

just say let's take a step let's just take a deep breath here and we've done that over the course of the season where the microws have

slowly and slowly and slowly become part of the macro. And this, you know, we've talked about some of these losses hurting a little bit more than others.
