5-Star PG Reese Alston Makes SURPRISE Visit to Kentucky Basketball, Mark Pope NEEDS Him?

Locked On Podcast Network — Thu, 01 Oct 2026 22:00:00 GMT

Five-star point guard Reese Alston made a surprise official visit to Kentucky basketball, moving his trip to Lexington up earlier than expected. What does that mean for Mark Pope and the Wildcats’ pursuit of one of the top guards in the 2027 recruiting class?

On today's episode of Locked On Kentucky, Lance Dawe breaks down Reese Alston's unexpected visit to Lexington, why the five-star point guard is such an important target for Mark Pope, and what Kentucky has working in its favor in his recruitment. Then, Lance reacts to ESPN's preseason college basketball Top 25, where Kentucky checks in at just No. 19 despite ESPN calling Milan Momcilovic the best player from the transfer portal. Is Kentucky basketball being underrated again heading into the 2026-27 season?

Finally, the SEC Quench Meter returns. Lance ranks every SEC football game this weekend based on how badly he wants to watch it and gives predictions for Alabama vs. Mississippi State, Florida vs. Missouri, Auburn vs. Tennessee, Vanderbilt vs. Georgia, Arkansas vs. Texas A&M, Kentucky vs. South Carolina and more.

Corey Price's contributions to BBN are both unique and very much appreciated. We talk about his radio appearances and trivia segments and how they have grown over the years. We also talk about his experiences in the press box with Tom Leach and Jeff Piecoro.

After Kentucky lost to Texas A&M in basketball last March Corey's customary post game tweets were nowhere to be found. Vinny had an idea as to why they were missing and just had to ask Corey about it for confirmation.

PREVIEW: Kentucky Wildcats SEEK Revenge, Dylan Stewart SUSPENDED, South Carolina Vulnerable

Locked On Podcast Network — Wed, 30 Sep 2026 22:00:00 GMT

The Kentucky Wildcats eye redemption as they prepare to break a four-game losing streak against the South Carolina Gamecocks. Can Kenny Minchey finally deliver under center with Dylan Stewart suspended and Kentucky’s run game surging after a historic 390-yard outing?

On today's episode of Locked On Kentucky, Lance Dawe unpacks the pivotal matchup, spotlighting CJ Baxter, Jason Patterson, and Jovantae Barnes as key factors in testing a Gamecock defense that allows just 85 rushing yards per game.

Lance analyzes LaNorris Sellers’ explosive dual-threat potential and the importance of containing both him and running back Matt Fuller to avoid giving up big plays. Keys to victory include keeping Minchey out of third-and-long, forcing Sellers to drive the field, and eliminating costly turnovers. With Kentucky’s defense already proving itself in pressure environments, can they convert road grit into a statement SEC win? Tune in for game predictions, tactical breakdowns, and why this could be Kentucky’s most important swing game of the season.

Kentucky vs South Carolina Preview with Rixon Lane | Bleav In Kentucky

Bleav — Tue, 29 Sep 2026 23:34:28 GMT

Y'all remember how frustrated Rixon Lane was the last time he was on the podcast? That was last year and South Carolina thrashed the Cats in Columbia. It's hard to believe but the frustration level is even higher now. Could Kentucky end the Shane Beamer era?

Rixon listed ranked all of the Gamecocks ills, discussed the latest with the Dylan Stewart situation. How did South Carolina put themselves in position to really contend in 2024 and waste all of the momentum since then?

We also talked about something we agree on, the Atlanta Braves. Plus Rixon's new book!

Malachi Moreno Just Made a MASSIVE Leap for Kentucky Basketball?

Locked On Podcast Network — Tue, 29 Sep 2026 20:00:00 GMT

The Kentucky Wildcats may have found their X-factor as Malachi Moreno emerges as a dominant force at center. Mark Pope praises Moreno’s transformation, calling him "unrecognizable," while Moreno admits to overcoming early summer struggles. Could Kentucky’s ceiling dramatically shift with this sophomore’s leap?

On today's episode of Locked On Kentucky, Lance Dawe spotlights how Moreno’s improved physicality, finishing, and playmaking could unlock new offensive schemes and elite rim protection for the Wildcats. The episode analyzes Pope’s vision for a creator-rich roster, the crucial role of passing big men, and how Kentucky’s length, shooting, and movement signal a new era for the program. With the roster tailored to Pope’s style, is this the team that redefines Kentucky basketball’s identity?

BREAKING: Jerone Morton Suffers Injury, Mark Pope's Backcourt ALREADY In Jeopardy?

Locked On Podcast Network — Mon, 28 Sep 2026 20:00:00 GMT

Kentucky basketball had media day today, and Mark Pope gave us a brand-new injury to monitor: Jerone Morton hurt his knee and is out for at least the next few weeks. Kam Williams won't play in the preseason. Trent Noah is still out. Milan Momcilovic isn't fully cleared yet. So forget our rotation projections from last week - let's figure out what Mark Pope's team actually looks like right now.

On today's episode of Locked On Kentucky, Lance Dawe reacts to Morton's injury, as well as the other injury updates Mark Pope provided for the Kentucky Wildcats. Also, South Carolina Gamecocks EDGE Dylan Stewart has been suspended indefinitely by head coach Shane Beamer. This is huge for Will Stein and the Cats as their Saturday clash with Carolina looms large.

UNDERRATED: Why Kentucky Basketball with Zoom Diallo & Malachi Moreno DESERVES Top 10 Respect

Locked On Podcast Network — Fri, 25 Sep 2026 19:00:00 GMT

Kentucky Wildcats basketball enters the season underrated—are analysts overlooking a potential top-10 team? Lance DAWE exposes why Kentucky’s #18 preseason ranking by CBS, ESPN, and others underestimates a loaded roster featuring Zoom Diallo, Alex Wilkins, Milan Momcilovic, Ousmane N'Diaye, and Malachi Moreno. With proven scoring, All-SEC freshman honors, and international experience, the Wildcats’ starting five and deep bench stack up against any contender in college basketball.

Key talking points include the impact of Mark Mitchell’s departure, the so-called “Mark Mitchell tax” on national perception, and questions of chemistry, rebounding, and true leadership on the floor. Lance Dawn breaks down each position, highlights the versatility and upside across the depth chart, and challenges whether 17 teams are truly better than Kentucky. Can Mark Pope’s Wildcats defy the skeptics and jump into contention for a deep NCAA Tournament run?
