Today, we're looking at the Mark Stoops Show streaming on Mondays.

🔵 The Official Daily Newsletter For Kentucky Athletics

Good morning. And how could we forget to wish everyone a Happy Power Rangers Day yesterday? Did you know that the Blue Ranger appears in every Ranger team? But we don’t have to tell you twice that blue is the only color worth keeping around.

What else are we mixing into today’s Brew?

📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Speak Up. You know when you’re watching a football game, and you’re questioning what happened or why a certain play was called—but in reality, you’re just talking to a TV screen? Well, you can change that and get your questions answered directly by head coach Mark Stoops.

Fans can ask questions on the @UKSportsNetwork page or by calling 1-800-606-4263 or 859-280-2287. Listen to the show on 630 WLAP, online at UKathletics.com, and on UK Sports Network radio affiliates. The show airs Monday nights from 6-7 p.m. ET.

Right after the coach speaks, you can hear from other coaches and athletes on Clark’s Pump-N-Shop BBN Radio from 7-8 p.m. ET.

🔼 Jump Scare. Big Blue BOO! Kentucky softball plays the annual Big Blue Boo game on Friday, Oct. 20 at John Cropp Stadium, where they’ll bring out their tricks to hopefully treat us to a victory over the Miami RedHawks. There’ll be games, prizes, and a costume contest that night, along with free admission.

But let’s back up. Softball has its first fall game on Sunday, Sept. 17, and it’s at home. They play five total games at home and one away at Notre Dame. And the best part is, all five home games are free to fans.

🤔 BIG BLUE TRIVIA

Special Connection. It isn't every day that you can say a famous rapper supports your school. When men’s basketball head coach John Calipari started at Kentucky, so did the program’s relationship with Grammy Award winner Drake.

Today’s question—speaking of beginnings, what year did Coach Calipari start coaching the Wildcats?
