Leary interview on BBN Tonight
- Thread starter Smashcat
- Start date
****FINALLY**** JMI gets their pound of flesh.
Afterwards, the rest of the media get their turn with him. Only took a month! A month Leary coulda used building his NIL brand around the community!

It didn’t take a month; it took a little over one week. Jones wanted to interview him on January 10th.
A week delay simply isn’t a big deal.
Classes started on Jan 9th so I doubt he was here much before then. This just seems like Jones is trying to make a mountain out of molehill at least with this particular situation.
He committed to UK & UK announced his transfer December 20th. A month ago.
How many other media outlets asked to interview him but were denied, and didn't say anything like KSR?
It’s unlikely that other media outlets asked to interview him.
But if you want to make unfounded assumptions about a situation to justify complaining about something minor, knock yourself out.
All these frauds do is lie. Any lie to uphold the narrative. Imagine being that pathetic.
As another poster pointed out it was a week delay. I doubt anyone in the target market didn't know who he was before last week. His brand building was not effected.
The only person effected was Jones who lost out on pregame ratings and restaurant foot traffic during a down time in basketball. Thus the hissy fit
UK fans will tune in for other interviews with Leary. It’s not as if that exhausted the intro. I listened to KSR briefly on Wednesday for the first time in a long time and Matt mentioned JMI in the short time I listened. Seems to be a target for him, no doubt.
JMI will be the death of us. Magilla Gorilla is from the Deep State. The Man is always trying to hold us down. We have to defeat The Man.
I kinda think they maybe responsible for bringing us to where we are. Do you remember where we were before they jumped in? I do. I’m not a complete fan but I remember the days when no one else wanted us much. Basketball brought us in, hopefully football brings us out.
JMI would have received nothing for that interview specifically.
This is part of a broader rights agreement that established WLEX as the official TV partner of UK Athletics and the UK Sports Network.
How dare they give the first interview to the official TV partner who has a show dedicated to promoting UK athletics 5 days a week and BBN Gameday every Saturday promoting the big weekend games during basketball and football season. It’s a travesty.
Bro, I’m with you on most of the facts and legalities of your position, but your sledge-hammer-style presentation wears a little thin.
You got anything on being a fan of UK, or is the JMIish your sole reason for hanging out, here?
I have all kinds of things on being a UK fan but I will call out lies and blatant BS whenever I see it. Lies and BS about UK JMI and NIL wear thin too. You pushed a narrative that JMI got paid for an interview, like all the other nonsense that’s 100% BS.
I have nothing against WLEX, and think they do a good job. But with decades of history watching football in WKYT with Ron Bromley, from the 70’s on, it’s still hard to get used to.
Now you’re crying because I responded to you? LOL. I guess that’s what you have to do when you can’t defend the ignorant BS you put out. Robots don’t stop lying about UK JMI and NIL.
Give me some examples.
I’m specifically talking about you wondering how much they got paid. Imagine thinking they charge for player interviews. Anything to forward the BS agenda.
That’s all I got, you’re usually on point IMO, but you now damn well they weren’t getting paid for a player interview.
You said, “Seriously, I wonder how much money they got for that first interview.” in response to a post that said JMI finally got their pound of flesh.

Had anyone received money for the interview, I would not have thought the money came from a player, but from the entity that had the “right” for the first interview.
From UKCincy’s posts, it sounds like WLEX has ponied up to be an “official partner” which I assume gives them first bite on interviews.
Yeah, WLEX is UK’s official partner, they have a show dedicated to promoting UK that airs 5 days a week and get preferential treatment as the official television partner.
Gorilla boys act is understood when you realize they do this for a JMI paycheck
He does seem like a plant/hit man for “the man.” He is the “company man” in a lot of these discussions.
Mags got very active when this attack Mitch/JMI over NIL narrative sprung up and brings his hammer to every discussion. He does the same with politics. Otherwise, he does not seem to have a lot to offer. I would offer him a Valium.
Y’all can’t point to one lie I’ve told, I can point to dozens other have told. Company man for not pointing lies? I guess that’s what you’re considered when you’re not a KSR sheep.
The KSR goofs get so mad when they get busted lying. I point out lies, their comeback is more lies about how I work for JMI. Anything to deflect from the lie and keep promoting Daddy Matt’s narrative.

Despite all the pathetic lies you made up, all the crying you did for daddy Matt, all the ignorance you spewed, we’re gonna have a stacked team next year. Have fun cheering against us for your narrative fraud.
I am just offering facts. You are just proving my point. The company gorilla.
You’re just offering deflection for your buddies lies. There’s a reason none of you ever stick to the subject and make up ignorant BS. They absolutely do not charge for interviews or any of the other lies you mindless KSR sheep make up.
Instead of enjoying the Devin Leary interview, your buddies just made up a bunch of lies to forward the agenda.
I suspect JMI has been behind all the anti-Matt Jones posts on this site over the years. Whenever I would make a post critical of Jones, there would be an anonymous direct deposit into my account. JMI has been working this angle for a long while.
Here’s some unsolicited advice, so take this for whatever it’s worth.
It’s possible to have a discussion on the merits of something and to debate the facts of the situation without the vitriol.
In the end, you just end up working against yourself. The people who are adamantly opposed to you only dig in their heels deeper (and you were unlikely to change their mind anyway). Those who are more open minded and might consider your point of view will start to tune you out, and any good facts you might bring to the discussion will be lost in the noise.
Personally, I also don’t it was necessary to go after The Hack like that. The guy has a long track record here of being a good and respectful poster.
Just my two cents, so do with it what you will.
