Bleav in Kentucky

Jager Burton joined Vinny for a fun convo about lots of topics. He talked about getting to know all of his teammates and leaving no stone unturned in an effort to improve on last season. We talked about his approach to fall camp now that he was an older player. He spearheaded tornado relief efforts for London and Somerset after the devastating tornado they suffered last month (00:11:00). We spoke...

One-run games weren't kind to Kentucky baseball. We saw it again in the regionals against West Virginia. The way the season ended stung and will sting for a while. But the Cats had a solid season and achieved a lot overall. They have positioned themselves nicely for next year if they play their cards right. Kentucky football has us all feeling kind of glum. Maybe they can prove us wrong. Plus we t...

Otega Oweh is running it back. The Kentucky men's basketball roster is complete for real. Oweh withdrew his name from the NBA Draft after going through the process and getting all the feedback.

See where we rank on Million Podcasts Ke...

We all saw the announcement about Champions Blue, LLC. But what is it? What does it do? We weren't sure so we were happy to be joined by a guest who was. Clay Grayson, a nationally recognized attorney specializing in nonprofit and for-profit organizational strategy was kind enough to share his insights. Listen to find out why UK Athletics' bold move made his head spin in a good way. Million Podcas...

It's a little quiet on the UK front right now. Vinny and Aaron talked about Mark Pope chopping it up with Jon Rothstein and the football roster. Sad news out of D.C. as former Cat Georgia Amoore has suffered a knee injury right before the start of her rookie season. We talked NFL Draft, Lawrence Taylor keeping his jersey and a little Kentucky Derby too. Follow and subscribe ! Hosted by Simplecast,...

Solomon Wilcots stopped by on NFL Draft eve and reminisced about his time spent in Kentucky. Were they fond memories or brutal Georgetown training camp memories? He discussed how the Bengals may approach the upcoming draft. He also got in depth about the techniques DBs use when trying to defend wide receivers. Got a lot done in this short episode.

ESPN anchor, SportsCenter co-host Michael Eaves joined Vinny and Aaron on the podcast. We talked Harlan County/Hardin County (00:03:53) his favorite/best sport, (00:11:00) covering The Masters (the dream within the dream), being the first black announcer on The Masters telecast. We went back to how he got his start in golf with his dad. Talked about his favorite sport and his best sport. He's look...

There have been some surprise departures. There have been some unexpected additions. At the end of the day the 2025-26 Kentucky men's basketball roster is going to be fine. Can UK baseball flip the script in these one-run games? Congrats to Georgia Amoore. Couple of thoughts on Nico too. Go Cats!! #WeAreUK Follow and subscribe ! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The panic over the portal is just always going to be a thing now. Good thing Mark Pope and his staff aren't fazed by it. Jayden Quaintance, Mouhamed Dioubate, Kam Williams and Jaland Lowe being on next year's roster should go a long way toward easing everyone's angst and anxiety. Aaron interviewed Kam Williams. Be sure to check it out in The Cats Pause . There were also some thoughts on spring pra...

We had a great convo with Jay Boulware. Talked about how spring ball is going and what he is seeing out of the running backs. The details of getting special teams right and the impact that Willie Rodriguez had on that. We also talked about his Oklahoma roots, playing for Texas and being on both sides of the Red River Rivalry. Then we put a bow on the men's basketball season and spoke on the Cassid...

It was one of those nights for Kentucky. They just couldn't get on track and fell to Tennessee 78-65 in the Sweet 16 in Indianapolis. The defensive boards did the Cats in and created a deficit that they just couldn't overcome. Big picture it was still a fun season and there is a lot to look forward to. #BBN Follow, and subscribe !

Winless no more. Cats give Mark Pope his first NCAA dub, 76-57 over Troy. Trent Noah got ball rolling and then other shots started falling. Collin Chandler is getting more comfortable by the second. Up next, Illinois on Sunday. RIP to Vern Hatton and George Foreman. #GoCats Follow, like and subscribe ! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Is this week flying by or dragging for you? We're all waiting for Friday at 7:00. Lamont Butler's value on both ends of the court will be key versus Troy. One win in the tournament will be an improvement over what we've seen lately, anything after that is just gravy. #BBN #GoCats Follow and subscribe ! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Tom Leach joined us to talk about a variety of topics. Hard to believe that it's March already. Has there been a UK team that's been hit as hard by injury as this one has? (00:06:00) Can Collin Chandler continue to contribute offensively on the road? (00:09:00)What would be an acceptable first year for Mark Pope? (00:24:54) What are his expectations for his Reds this season? (00:34:30) #BBN #GoCat...

Collin Chandler made his biggest contribution of the season vs Vandy. (00:06:59) The lack of depth makes it imperative to get timely play from the bench players. Amari Williams continues to play at a high level. (00:23:37) He joined Hall of Famer Pau Gasol in an exclusive club last night. Cats have their hands full going to Tuscaloosa but anything is possible. (00:36:50) Our hearts are with all of...

Played 'em twice, beat 'em twice. Vinny is biased and rightfully so as Trent Noah continues to look more and more comfortable every time he's on the court. The injury situation is real but guys still continue to step up. Travis Perry showed off the floater, Ansley Almonor put the ball on the floor for an And One. Gotta figure out how to win on the road against a below average team in Texas this we...

Another game in Thompson-Boling Arena, another win for Kentucky. Pretty sure Tennessee just missed another three. We start things off first talking with Porter Hayes of The Hawg Talk. Cal comes back to Lexington. Why have the Hogs struggled so badly? Can they turn it around? How locked in is Cal? Will he be booed or cheered? As banged up as Kentucky was they still took care of business at Tennesse...

Kentucky got the middle of the week off as far as games were concerned. Now they get set to take on Vanderbilt in Nashville. It comes at a good time for Andrew Carr and Lamont Butler. If the Cats can get by with it, should they rest Andrew and only play him against Tennessee? We touched on the latest transfer portal news for UK football. Cal and Arkansas continue to struggle. Plus NFC and AFC Cham...

Kentucky handled business against Texas A & M. Kendrick Haskins of WAVE Sports and Bleav In The ACC stopped by to talk with Vinny and Aaron.
