Welcome in to the Sources A podcast, your go-to Kentucky basketball podcast on the KSR podcast network, presented by our friends at Club Blue. Club Blue is the official collective partner of the University of Kentucky. I am your host, Jack Pilgrim of Kentucky Sports Radio.

Very excited to be joined once again.

It's been a minute, I think.

It's been, been, you know, been a little bit since the end of the start of the offseason

with my guy, Sean Smith.

Sean, how the heck are you?

Yeah, it was a pretty sweet 16 was the last time that we were on here together.

What's happened since then?

Doing good.

You're starting to see, you're seeing a path to a really good team next year.

And a lot to talk about, especially in the last, what, five days.

A lot's happened.

Yeah, so we can go back at, you know, we didn't really get the season wrap up with you.

So if we want to kind of just rewind just a little bit and just kind of go through the order of events from there.

So you get the Tennessee loss.

Obviously, that sucked a big fat one and we hated every second of that.

But, you know, it's one of those deals where if you were to tell me going into the year

that, you know, Kentucky would make history with eight top 15 wins and, you know, be a three seed

and get to the second weekend for the first time since 2019 and, you know, just kind of get to that point, I would have been thrilled.

Like it was exactly what we kind of said going into the year that that was kind of our goal,

just to kind of get back that and get, you know, get that feeling back for us.

Once again, you get there.
