Someone “accidentally” slipped KSR Digger Phelps’s cell phone number this morning and we spent the majority of the show trying to figure out how to handle it. The first few attempts went straight to voicemail, so Matt and I scripted a bit to leave in a message. When it came time for our big moment, we were surprised when the phone actually rang and then our fear of the FCC took over.

I can’t listen to the podcast…what happened in the call? maybe a dumb question, but what is FCC?
February 13th, 2012 at 3:37 pm
Digger’s a tool 99% of the time. Also, get those contest pics up fellas!
February 13th, 2012 at 3:40 pm
2. The only dumb question is the question not asked. Federal Communications Commission.
February 13th, 2012 at 3:41 pm
^FCC is the Federal Communications Commission

Did anyone else see Digger on the grammys last night warning Adele to not ruin the night for Taylor?
February 13th, 2012 at 4:01 pm
I have a silly question as well. How do I get this podcast to where I can listen daily?

Where is the vid located?
February 13th, 2012 at 4:11 pm
I feel like digger thinks he IS gameday. when in all reality, no one likes him.
February 13th, 2012 at 4:16 pm
I’m a peter puffer…I puff peter.
February 13th, 2012 at 4:21 pm
FCC is the agency that monitors radio and TV. Federal Communications Commision. They are the ones that set fines for cusing on air, wardrobe malfunctions, etc.
February 13th, 2012 at 4:21 pm
The close-up video of Digger is now labeled “private.” What’s up?
February 13th, 2012 at 4:26 pm
So is Digger the white Kanye?
February 13th, 2012 at 4:47 pm
i can’t see it i can’t see it!!! where’s the video!!
February 13th, 2012 at 4:47 pm
or audio or whatever!
February 13th, 2012 at 4:49 pm
Digger would like a video copy of the 1978 UK – Notre Dame game featuring Dwight “The Blur” Anderson
February 13th, 2012 at 5:15 pm
Honestly, I know you KSR guys don’t want to hear it, but when you finally got the call through to Digger’s line…and then, out of fear, hung up before he answered, it was just as the caller said—you sounded like a bunch of little school girls making a prank call during a sleepover. You did. Nope, don’t make excuses. You did.
February 13th, 2012 at 5:15 pm
Digger has always been a big puss. He reminds me of my 1st grade teacher giving us warnings before playground time. I bet he spends most of his time in front of a mirror saying ” mirror mirror on the wall how can I be a even bigger puss”
February 13th, 2012 at 5:46 pm
I’m sorry guys, but I don’t really feel you do very good investigative journalism. Your plan was to mock him if he came on? Next time, consider putting together a good list of hard-hitting questions that helps reveal how what he says only further shows his anti-UK bias. Ask him what the stadium would have been like without UK fans, what the situation was in his mind, if he had every had another rant like that before, why he kept yelling “listen to me!,” where the terrible veteran transition came from, how he planned to respond to the UK nation when he inevitably comes for GameDay next year… not MOCK him.

seven?
February 13th, 2012 at 5:59 pm
#25 has it…
February 13th, 2012 at 6:01 pm
They guy couldnt beat us a coach. Digger all that hate eating you up inside.
February 13th, 2012 at 6:07 pm
The FCC won’t let me be
February 13th, 2012 at 6:09 pm
GAME DAY would be so much better if it was just Rece Davis and Bilas.. I’d even settle for adding Greg Anthony or someone from outside of espn.
February 13th, 2012 at 6:16 pm
digger is so jealous of THE BIG BLUE NATION he should have been thankful for the UK fans, or he would’nt have had an audience. Shame on Digger for acting like a child. ESPN needs to ground him, for a few games.
February 13th, 2012 at 6:28 pm
#25 nailed it….digger, what were you thinking when you were shaking your crotchety ‘Skeletor’ finger at our fanbase?!?!
February 13th, 2012 at 6:35 pm
Those who CAN coach, coach. Those who can’t, work for the Worldwide Leader.
February 13th, 2012 at 6:37 pm
here is a digger link that shows him yelling at UK fans http://www.awfulannouncing.com/2012-articles/february/digger-phelps-tells-kentucky-fans-how-to-act.html
February 13th, 2012 at 7:15 pm
@DiggerPhelps there is just something about you that makes me want to just punch you in the face.
February 13th, 2012 at 7:23 pm
I suggest we reach out to UK fans around the country and ask them to attend games where Digger is on the air and yell “Listen to me, Digger!” throughout the game where the TV mikes pick it up. ESPN will not be happy with him at all.
February 13th, 2012 at 7:56 pm
Digger doesnt exist!!!!!!!!
February 13th, 2012 at 7:59 pm
29- Or let me be me so let me see
February 13th, 2012 at 8:34 pm
Digger, who told you that it is cool to hold a marker in you hand, Bob Dole? “STOP IT”
February 13th, 2012 at 8:39 pm
If Digger was a grown man, I’d punch him in the face!
February 13th, 2012 at 8:55 pm
15. LOL. How much peter can a peter puffer puff, if a peter puffer puffs peter?
February 13th, 2012 at 8:58 pm
Digger was in a bad mode Saturday, he forgot to wear his underwear that matched his tie and highlighter….nice gay trademark Douche
February 13th, 2012 at 9:01 pm
Do you guys know know Digger’s e-mail address @ ESPN, or how one might go about contacting him ?
February 13th, 2012 at 9:05 pm
Publish the number and blow it like big cuz’s cell. Seems obvious
February 13th, 2012 at 9:19 pm
#30, I would rather have Corso or Herbstreit than Digger
February 13th, 2012 at 9:27 pm
Digger couldn’t get it done at Notre Dame. He tried and he tried. Had a little success but failed on the big stage, What did that get him? An analyst job at ESPN where he matches his wits with a white board marker that matches his tie. He tries to talk tough as he acts as if he knows whats going on and (presumably) represents the underdog. For the sake of saying this one more time…Those who know what they are doing coach…How many years now has Digger been an analyst on ESPN? Well, enough said
February 13th, 2012 at 9:38 pm
I can’t picture Lee Corso doing that kind of crap at a football gameday. I always see fans from both schools (and gear from teams not even playing there) in the crowd behind the stage. I used to tolerate Digger but that was BS.
February 14th, 2012 at 7:15 pm
You are welcome Matt, I got all the cell numbers!!
