With so much going on in the world of Kentucky basketball this week, it just wouldn’t be right if we didn’t bring on Oscar “Diddy” Combs to lend an expert opinion for our listeners. The founder of The Cats’ Pause is co-hosting this morning’s show with Matt, which means it is certain to be a good one.
Have a listen.

Maybe this isnt the day, but its time to make a really big deal about the Yum Center being downgraded to high risk junk bond status earlier this week by Moody. Taxpayers are basically subsidizing UofL athletics while UK cant even get bonding it can pay off for football improvements.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:03 am
Baylor and Notre Dame…thank you Orlando Antigua ala Matt Jones.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:04 am
1, that isn’t even the worse part, UL is getting proceeds from NON-basketball venues such as concerts, conventions ect. ect. Now the tax payers are going to be footing the bill on this. If I were running the YUM center that contract would be renegotiated pronto, like as of yesterday.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:04 am
1- the taxpayers of Louisville really got screwed on that deal it appears, and if they cannot attract an NBA at some point this venture will have been a complete waste
June 1st, 2012 at 10:06 am
If IU is that crazy ex girlfriend, Dickie V is her annoying friend that won’t quit telling you how perfect you were together.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:06 am
Bankrupt an entire state just to keep up with big bro?
We are UL.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:06 am
Is Karen Sypher’s ex-husband/abortion chauffeur still in charge of the Yum! Center?
June 1st, 2012 at 10:06 am
Oscar, if Calipari were the President of BBN, Barnhart the Secretary of State, Matt the White House Press Secretary, and Richie Farmer the John Edwards, what would you be and why?
I’ll close the show thread and listen to your response.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:07 am
Welcome back to KSR, Oscar!
June 1st, 2012 at 10:09 am
6…beautifully written…and true…
June 1st, 2012 at 10:09 am
Anyone else sick of hearing about IU…..It’s over, plain and simple.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:11 am
11…yes…
June 1st, 2012 at 10:12 am
Oscar, did you take in a show while in Tijuana? Don’t lie, we know what you did lol
June 1st, 2012 at 10:12 am
You lie, Oscar.
You may deny me, but we’ll always have Tijuana.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:12 am
Donkey Show
June 1st, 2012 at 10:14 am
Oscar was the guy that told Cheech Marin about the Ti%%y Twister.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:15 am
Question for Oscar:
I’m a student at Murray State, and from what I hear there is a Murray history professor, Dr. Duane Bolin, who is currently writing a book about Coach Rupp. It is rumored that in his book Dr. Bolin paints a rather disparaging picture of Coach Rupp, in essence saying that he was a very angry and disgruntled person in his private life and many of the negative aspects of his life and tenure at UK have been “covered up” by various individuals through the years. Oscar, do you know anything of this book and can you talk a little bit about Coach Rupp’s personality? Thanks so much, love it when you are on the show.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:17 am
Per the Oscar Combs Dictionary, The Definition of a Hoosier: a buffoon with egg on his face and substanceless arguments. Kaboom.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:19 am
Part of it is the Kentucky Effect. The other part is IU made it public.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:19 am
Is it just me, or does Gunther Behnke look like the lead singer for The Cars?

18…in other words,what comes out of the rear ends of horses and elephants in a parade…
June 1st, 2012 at 10:22 am
I WISH MATT JONES WOULD LET OSCAR TALK AND STOP CUTTING HIM OFF. MATT IS GOOD, BUT OSCAR IS A LEGEND.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:22 am
Any way we can get Oscar’s thoughts on “call me maybe?”
June 1st, 2012 at 10:25 am
Didn’t Cal also beat RP in his last UM/UL game, too?
June 1st, 2012 at 10:25 am
UK-KU played every year from 71-90 http://www.bigbluehistory.net/bb/statistics/Kansas.html
June 1st, 2012 at 10:26 am
C’mon, matt. Let Oscar finish sentences.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:26 am
#8 Oscar would be the senior advisor that is the voice of reason in BBN
June 1st, 2012 at 10:27 am
Mobile homes as a % of residences, 2007
Indiana: 5.5%
Kentucky: 12.2%
Kentucky… where jean shorts are Sunday’s finest.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:28 am
I saw Ralph this past weekend on the golf course in Lexington.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:29 am
28- please post the relative meth addiction statistics for each state.
Thanks for playing.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:29 am
#28…. Indiana where bath salts are preferable over meth….who knew getting high from products at Bed Bath & Beyond could be so fun!
June 1st, 2012 at 10:31 am
28 Those percentages are skewed…In IN so many of the wheels of those homes to buy meth that they no longer qualify as “mobile”
June 1st, 2012 at 10:32 am
32- LMAO
June 1st, 2012 at 10:32 am
31 – well said…
June 1st, 2012 at 10:32 am
28…check your local newspaper…Wal-Mart has a sale on bed sheets…
June 1st, 2012 at 10:33 am
32 shouldve said wheels were sold to buy meth
June 1st, 2012 at 10:34 am
32,36…methmobiles…
June 1st, 2012 at 10:35 am
Matt, ask Oscar about Joker.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:35 am
Zipp called this a mile away flat-footed. He may be a pedophile, but he called this one.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:35 am
What do Andy Griffith, Marilyn Monroe and the Commonwealth of Kentucky have in common? They were all born on June 1st.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:36 am
28 Ahh, Indiana…the capital city of teenage pregnancy and creator of the idea that you can get drunk from hand-sanitizer.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:37 am
Matt, please let Oscar talk. You are cutting him off.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:37 am
MATT QUIT CUTTING OSCAR OFF!
June 1st, 2012 at 10:39 am
#28- you share fandom of the same school with The Truth.
Any and all arguments you present from this point forward are considered invalid.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:40 am
another idiot Truth call…
June 1st, 2012 at 10:41 am
Why is matt yelling?
June 1st, 2012 at 10:41 am
Every time I hear Truth call in, it’s like huffing paint in an airtight room for 20 minutes….brain cell genocide
June 1st, 2012 at 10:41 am
I seriously think The Truth has an IQ less than 70.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:42 am
44…Truth = Tweedle Dum…28 = Tweedle Dee…
June 1st, 2012 at 10:43 am
Love you Matt, but please stop interrupting and talking over the Big O
June 1st, 2012 at 10:43 am
OMG MATT SHUT THE HECK UP AND LET OSCAR TALK!
June 1st, 2012 at 10:44 am
Jim- yeah, I was going to say that if the Truth and #28 are our study samples, things aren’t looking good for IU as related to the intelligence of their fans.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:44 am
Matt, I love ya but will you let oscar finish a sentence
June 1st, 2012 at 10:45 am
Dang, I’m pretty country, but I can’t make heads or tails of this dude’s accent.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:45 am
Hearing this guy talking about elections in the 1950s is boring my ears off
June 1st, 2012 at 10:46 am
What is going on with this caller?
June 1st, 2012 at 10:46 am
WTH is this dude talking about???!!!!
June 1st, 2012 at 10:46 am
JayCee…Spot on Bro…iu IQs = flatline…
June 1st, 2012 at 10:46 am
Dafuq I just hear?
June 1st, 2012 at 10:46 am
Truth is high as a kite….and Jack is 421 years old!!!!
June 1st, 2012 at 10:46 am
This ol’ dude reminds me of some of the guys that call in to Joe B. & Denny
June 1st, 2012 at 10:46 am
Go back to talking about slips!
June 1st, 2012 at 10:47 am
kick this dude of the phone… my god
June 1st, 2012 at 10:47 am
Matt I think you need to put an age limit on these callers
June 1st, 2012 at 10:47 am
Just wasted 4 minutes of my life listening to Jack…
June 1st, 2012 at 10:47 am
Somebody needs to put out a Golden Alert for Jack.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:47 am
I vote for myself on the KSTV casting call
June 1st, 2012 at 10:48 am
#66 hahaha
June 1st, 2012 at 10:48 am
That was the most painful call EVER! Ugh
“Well, well, well…let me get to the point….”
PLEASE DO! MY GOD!
June 1st, 2012 at 10:48 am
#66 made me pee a little bit
June 1st, 2012 at 10:49 am
66…that thar was funny…
June 1st, 2012 at 10:49 am
If you give some callers the mic, they ruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun with it. Wow. If Jack was given enough time, I think he would have asked Oscar if he knew every person that ever lived in Hazard.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:49 am
That call was more awkward thatn when you are quietly singing to yourself, and you turn around to see someone is walking right behind you listening.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:49 am
It would have been a lot easier if Jack just stated, “Oscar…do you know Matt Roark’s grandparents?”
June 1st, 2012 at 10:49 am
hey oscar, do you know bobby smith? what about jim dean? hey oscar, do you know….
June 1st, 2012 at 10:49 am
Poor man! He was just so excited to talk to Oscar.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:50 am
Oscar…do you know Bo and Luke Duke? Or Uncle Jesse?
June 1st, 2012 at 10:50 am
Not even Alanis’s family are Alanis Morsette fans
June 1st, 2012 at 10:50 am
I love it when Matt asks Oscar about people like Alanis Morrisette.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:51 am
Alanis is one crazy witch!
June 1st, 2012 at 10:53 am
Dude, did the show travel back in time?
June 1st, 2012 at 10:53 am
I bet Oscar follows ICP very closely.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:53 am
Drew Frankling reporting we are playing ND for sure. I don’t really understand the allure of ND. We played them 2 years ago in the SEC/Big East challenge @ Freedom Hall and there are so many more Big East teams I would rather play. Marquette, Syracuse, Cincy, WV, Gtown, and Pitt. I understand this scheduling is impossible but playing St Johns and ND twice in a 3 year span is not that exciting. UConn @ MSG was quite a start for UK in this thing, but it has gone downhill since.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:53 am
Caller requirement today is that you must be 75 years old to get through and then ask if Oscar knows at least 2 people by name.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:53 am
Joker is done… Kentucky football is a joke! FIGHT ON USC TROJANS! 2012 champs! Ends the reign of SEC!
June 1st, 2012 at 10:53 am
This has to stop. Please prevent these callers from just talking about random crap that Oscar might or might not actually remember.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:53 am
Do they even bother screening these calls or what???
June 1st, 2012 at 10:54 am
Oscar do you remember ______? fill in random name.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:54 am
This is unbelievable. Put Oscar on the air and every person who talked to him 20+ years ago finds a phone and calls to reminisce about that one or two minute interaction. WTF.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:54 am
80…Karen Sypher with a guitar…maybe they are related…
June 1st, 2012 at 10:55 am
No!
Curry’s best season EVER was a 10-2 season at Bama. He had a LOSING record at both GT and UK.
HE never won a NC, he only won the SEC 1 freaking time. AT Bama… just like every other coach has done at Bama.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:55 am
I feel like I’m at Denny’s for the senior citizen discount!
June 1st, 2012 at 10:55 am
I think we should go ahead and cut to the 1st hour break and restart. #GoodNight
June 1st, 2012 at 10:56 am
I picture an “I Used to Know Oscar Combs Alumni Association,” and they are all huddled around a single rotary phone at the local Moose Lodge just passing the phone back and forth.
June 1st, 2012 at 10:56 am
Oscar do you remember me?
June 1st, 2012 at 10:56 am
People under 60 call and the phone goes out!
June 1st, 2012 at 10:56 am
Hey Oscar do you remember Aaron Aarons? Do you remember Abdul Abdullah? Do you remember JoeSchmo Ackworth…(continue listing every name alphabetically in phone book)
June 1st, 2012 at 10:57 am
92…spit Ale 8 out through my nose…good one Patty
June 1st, 2012 at 10:57 am
#94 Too funny!
June 1st, 2012 at 10:57 am
1 hr and not a single ‘brilliant’
June 1st, 2012 at 10:59 am
I love KSR and listen everyday. That was a baaaaaaad hour of radio. Full blame on the callers.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:01 am
101- still a better love story than Twilight and infinitely better than a Cutler show.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:01 am
Hey Matt, you’re lying again. You HATE walks down memory lane because it shows you as ignorant, badly prepared and uninformed…which is EXACTLY what you are. And, besides isn’t it just absolute torture to have to interact with all these OLD PEOPLE ? OMG, how can you take it, Matt ?
June 1st, 2012 at 11:02 am
Please thank Drew for such an early podcast yesterday.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:02 am
You always know when things are going to go bad when they start talking about Kelly Coleman.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:03 am
“Kentuckeh pices the bysketbawl reely wayal. Thayt liced pice by Teague was uh gret one.”
June 1st, 2012 at 11:04 am
Now, somebody tell me what I came in this room to do. And who the hell are you people?
June 1st, 2012 at 11:05 am
People who talk crap through a thread make me laugh. There should definitely be a rule that says you can’t post with a poolstick shoved up your ass. Opinions are opinions an of you don’t like them don’t listen. I’m looking at you 103.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:08 am
Warshington?
Ugh.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:08 am
Hey 107 you’re not me. But keep trying. First however, you have to grow a brain.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:09 am
I feel bad for you Paratrooper! If I don’t like something I try my best to avoid it but you feel the need to obviously punish yourself by continously listening to a show and host you hate. I’ll pray for you!
June 1st, 2012 at 11:09 am
# 103 – just jump and get it over with
June 1st, 2012 at 11:09 am
Are you keeping the callers in a small box today or is it just coincidence that all these folks are using the new Nokia toaster phone?
June 1st, 2012 at 11:13 am
If this caller had tooken more classes, he might be more smarter.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:13 am
“More smart” – love it!
June 1st, 2012 at 11:13 am
I might be stupid, but at least I’m ugly.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:13 am
I don’t understand the perception of this NBA Draft class being weak. I think this is a solid class with a lot of talent.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:13 am
#114 Come on you know man! LOL
June 1st, 2012 at 11:14 am
Matt,
Oscar has some good points if you would let him finish his comments.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:14 am
Truth is gonna be pissed the next years draft is going to be on the wrong side of history and full of iu players…
June 1st, 2012 at 11:16 am
Geebus! What is this, bring your octogenarian to work day?
June 1st, 2012 at 11:16 am
How did this show turn into a trip down memory lane?
June 1st, 2012 at 11:17 am
This is the old man’s version of writing “First!” on a comment section.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:17 am
OH NO!!!!! Now Radio Ron is drinking the Kool-Aid!!!
June 1st, 2012 at 11:19 am
I would like the true story from Oscar of why Rupp was forced to retire. I just remember my dad and grandfathers being upset about it.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:19 am
Doesn’t sound like Oscar is a Radio Ron fan.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:20 am
I’m seriously expecting an Ensure ad or a Wilfred Brimley DIABEETUS PSA…
June 1st, 2012 at 11:20 am
In my day, men were men, and you could get the newspaper for a haypenny. By the way, where the hell am I?
June 1st, 2012 at 11:21 am
Not one of Radio Ron better appearance om this site.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:21 am
SWEET!!!
June 1st, 2012 at 11:23 am
DAVE RAMSEY says: “To a woman a car is an oversized purse.”
Priceless!!
June 1st, 2012 at 11:23 am
LET OSCAR TALK….GOOD GOD.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:23 am
I think Oscar has fogotten more than Matt can remember.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:25 am
Do you remember me from that thing that one time? I was that one lady/guy.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:26 am
New drinking game, everybody somebody says “Do you remember me?”
June 1st, 2012 at 11:26 am
If another person calls in and asks Matt or Oscar if they “remember them”, I’m gonna kill a kitten!
June 1st, 2012 at 11:26 am
I meant everytime, I guess I’ve taken too many shots.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:26 am
135 = alcohol poisoning before lunch
June 1st, 2012 at 11:26 am
Lol tell me Oscar just fell asleep!
June 1st, 2012 at 11:28 am
The past hour and a half of KSR has been sponsored by Geritol!
June 1st, 2012 at 11:28 am
Oscar, do you remember me from the donkey show?
June 1st, 2012 at 11:29 am
Good work Lou…..You Szzir….are Ssszzimply Awezssome!!!
June 1st, 2012 at 11:29 am
Bring this man to me.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:30 am
People who went to Tijuana for 2 hours and left and claim to have no stories…oh, they have the best stories-they just won’t talk about it
June 1st, 2012 at 11:30 am
Hey Matt, mean ? You’re way too GAY to ever be thought of as mean. Snarky ? Bitchy ? Thats more like it.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:31 am
So we’re playing in Gary Indiana, and a junky Notre Dame stadium (per Oscar)- where there no games available in Detroit? Why are we slumming it next year?
June 1st, 2012 at 11:31 am
Is Dr. Todd from Tijuana?
June 1st, 2012 at 11:31 am
Come on Oscar… Notre Dame’s arena is brand new. Only holds 9000
June 1st, 2012 at 11:31 am
Check and see if Oscar got a prescription for pencillen and a cream when he got back from Tijuana and then we will know what happened.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:31 am
Hey Matt, do you remember me? I approached you at a Qdoba in West Virginia…
June 1st, 2012 at 11:32 am
Todd Crawford wrote “A Doctors Guide to College Football” Good read.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:32 am
Come next June my tomatoes will have come in, so I won’t have anything to do. Send me a contract on a napkin like Billy Gillspie.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:32 am
with all due respect….if I sounded like radio ron every time I spoke I would slit my vocal cords….there I said it.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:33 am
Dear Matt,
Could you tell Oscar in the future when on the show to be more honest with his feelings (ie: Notre Dame facilities). We don’t need sugar coating… Tell us how you really feel.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:33 am
I wonder if Oscar remembers me from the old mountain tent revival back in ’74
June 1st, 2012 at 11:33 am
Hey all my haters, why don’t you take your own stupid advice and ignore my posts if you don’t like them. I’m gonna make you come over and clean my toilet, but first you gotta take off your dress. LOL
June 1st, 2012 at 11:33 am
Remember when Paratrooper wasn’t a total asswipe loser? … me neither.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:34 am
“Something went down in TJ.” More like SOMEONE went down in TJ. Is Oscar sure this was 78′ because it sounds more like 69′!
June 1st, 2012 at 11:34 am
Now where the hell are my keys?
June 1st, 2012 at 11:34 am
I see they’ve reinstated internet priveleges at Western State Hospital.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:34 am
Oscar doesn’t like country music because he has taste.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:35 am
Prostituting themselves? Is Oscar thinking back to Tijuana?
June 1st, 2012 at 11:35 am
Wrong Oscar ! It IS the coach. Mike Leach took sub-par team at Texas Tech and made them winners.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:36 am
LET OSCAR TALK //////PLEASE
June 1st, 2012 at 11:36 am
Kinda like Pitino threw Karen a doggy bone?
June 1st, 2012 at 11:36 am
Prostitutes=politicians
June 1st, 2012 at 11:37 am
Hey 131, BRILLIANT !!! And its even worse than that if you can imagine. A “woman” is nothing more than a life support system for the vagina.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:37 am
My teeth can’t handle doggy bones.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:37 am
Mother Hubbard talk?
June 1st, 2012 at 11:38 am
169- AC/DC talk?
June 1st, 2012 at 11:38 am
Sliding in the bathroom…reminds me of Tijuana.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:40 am
pitino had never won against cal, so cal would have to win them all in a 1996 vs 2012 game
June 1st, 2012 at 11:42 am
I much prefer the company of men. Now if I could only remember their names…
June 1st, 2012 at 11:42 am
My sister and I would go up on a charter bus to Louisville to the Notre Dame game every year.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:42 am
Get rid of Big Bertha?
June 1st, 2012 at 11:43 am
Those speakers are like a poop tooth on Rupp’s face.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:44 am
Oscar’s silence is eerily similar to The General when asked a question about the Cats or Davis. C’mon, man!
June 1st, 2012 at 11:45 am
Matt has learned an Oscarism. Will we be hearing about a lot of bone throwing in the future of KSR?
June 1st, 2012 at 11:46 am
176…that can be taken care of…we have the technology
June 1st, 2012 at 11:46 am
Fantastic show, guys. I haven’t gotten anything done since 10 o’clock.
June 1st, 2012 at 11:48 am
If not a jumbo tron. Atleast get rid of the 1982 tube tvs in the arena and put up some flat screens with a better picture do we can actually see replays on them
June 1st, 2012 at 11:50 am
If this is the show this won’t be on in 20 years
June 1st, 2012 at 11:50 am
Happy birthday to the state of Kentucky! 220 years old today!
June 1st, 2012 at 11:51 am
Before anything – PAINT THE RED RAFTERS FREAKIN’ BLUE!!!!

December 28, 1959 was the beginning chapter in Bob Knight’s long Kentucky nightmare. He had just been benched by Fred Taylor before the game. Look it up.

Now we know what’s behind the current UK/iu snafu…turnabout is fair play…

Sorry Oscar, you’re wrong. IU went back to Rupp for one more game two years later, which happened to be Sutton’s last year.
Also, the confrontation re: officials took place AFTER the game ended, not before as there was a controversial charging call made late in the game.

Indiana needs to shut up. They complain UK dropped them, but they are scared to play the Cards. We would totally demolish them in their crappy gym.
