WOW: Auburn Podcaster LOSES HIS MIND Over Kentucky Head Coaching Take Oct 30, 2025

Show notes

Kentucky football is a better program and job than Auburn right now, and Tigers' fans are not taking that news well.

On today's episode of Locked On Kentucky, Lance Dawe is joined by Zac Blackerby of the Locked On Auburn podcast to preview the Kentucky Wildcats vs Auburn Tigers this weekend - but first, the guys discuss whether or not Kentucky football is a better program, and potential landing spot for Jon Sumrall, than Auburn.

SHOCKING: Jon Rothstein Has NO RESPECT For Kentucky Basketball, Mark Pope Not Meeting Expectations?! Oct 29, 2025

Show notes

There seems to be a lack of respect for the Kentucky Wildcats, even after throttling the Purdue Boilermakers.

On today's episode of Locked On Kentucky, Lance Dawe discusses Jon Rothstein's recent comments about Kentucky basketball's ceiling raising after beating Purdue so badly. The ceiling has, and always will be, a national championship, and with how Kentucky has constructed their roster, the ceiling always was above any other program in college basketball. Also, Rothstein's rankings don't seem to reflect his opinions on Mark Pope and the Cats. Mark Stoops and Kentucky football will BEAT the Auburn Tigers this weekend - and there are legitimate reasons why. Also, IF the Wildcats fire Stoops, Kentucky is the best job in college football this coaching cycle... especially for Jon Sumrall.

BREAKING: Could Five-Star Christian Collins COMMIT to Kentucky Basketball SOON? Oct 28, 2025

Show notes

Five-star forward Christian Collins could be making a commitment soon, but to whom, and when?

On today's episode of Locked On Kentucky, Lance Dawe speculates over what Christian Collins will do, now that it seems like he will be committing to either the Kentucky Wildcats, USC Trojans, or perhaps another California school very soon. If Mark Pope does land Collins... what does that say for next season's roster? Also, what is Tyran Stokes doing??

PANIC: Are the Kentucky Wildcats SCREWED Even if They Fire Mark Stoops? Oct 27, 2025

Show notes

Kentucky football might be screwed if the fire head coach Mark Stoops... and it's not their fault.

On today's episode of Locked On Kentucky, Lance Dawe explains why the Kentucky Wildcats have problems even if they fire Mark Stoops. With the coaching carousel already underway - Brian Kelly out for the LSU Tigers, Billy Napier fired by the Florida Gators, etc. - the Wildcats' top coaching option, Tulane Green Wave head coach Jon Sumrall might be heading elsewhere. What can Kentucky do?

DOMINANCE: Kentucky Wildcats DESTROY Purdue Boilermakers, Mark Pope COOKING in Year Two Oct 25, 2025

Show notes

The Kentucky Wildcats crushed the Purdue Boilermakers in their first exhibition game behind an extremely impressive, balanced attack.

On today's episode of Locked On Kentucky, Lance Dawe recaps Kentucky basketball's victory over Purdue basketball. Jasper Johnson, Otega Oweh, and the rest of the squad looked incredible on both sides of the ball. Is it really time for Mark Pope and the Cats to win a national championship in year two?

WRONG: We're Thinking About Kentucky vs Purdue the WRONG WAY, Does a Win Matter? Oct 24, 2025

Show notes

Kentucky basketball plays a huge exhibition game later today vs Purdue... and we're thinking about it the wrong way.

On today's episode of Locked On Kentucky, Lance Dawe explains why we're thinking about Kentucky Wildcats vs Purdue Boilermakers wrong. Does a win or a loss matter? Also, Jaland Lowe will be back MUCH earlier than we expect, and online sports discourse needs to change.

PREVIEW: Kentucky Wildcats vs Purdue Boilermakers in an INCREDIBLE Exhibition Game Oct 23, 2025

Show notes

The Kentucky Wildcats have their work cut out for themselves in their first exhibition game against the Purdue Boilermakers.

On today's episode of Locked On Kentucky, Lance Dawe previews Kentucky basketball vs Purdue with Nick Arvin, host of Locked On Boilermakers. The Wildcats might struggle against the preseason No. 1 team, given that Jaland Lowe and Jayden Quaintance - two of the best players on the team - won't be playing. What will Mark Pope do to compensate? The guys talk matchups, strategy, and discuss just how much this matters to the fans... but maybe not the coaches.

DECISION: Jaland Lowe is OUT, Can Denzel Aberdeen STEP UP at Point Guard for the Kentucky Wildcats? Oct 21, 2025

Show notes

With Jaland Lowe out at least a couple of weeks, Denzel Aberdeen needs to be THE answer for Mark Pope and the Kentucky Wildcats at point guard.

On today's episode of Locked On Kentucky, Lance Dawe explains why Florida Gators transfer Denzel Aberdeen needs to be the exclusive point guard for Kentucky basketball until Jaland Lowe returns from injury. Also, Andrija Jelavic's role is a little more limited than we thought, and IF Kentucky wants Jon Sumrall, they'll need to be willing to pull the plug on Mark Stoops (after losing to Arch Manning and the Texas Longhorns) a lot quicker than they would.
