Kentucky has lost two of their first three games. They got beaten up at home by Richmond. They blew a double-digit lead against Kansas. This is not the elite incoming class we expected. So what's wrong with this group? Can they get better? Can they reach the level of expectation we have for a John Calipari-coached team? Wayne Turner discuss all of that, and more, on The Burner Turner Show.

In the latest episode of The Burner Turner Show, Tony Delk makes his first appearance. A former national champion and the 16th pick of the 1996 NBA Draft, Delk joins Wayne to talk through the path that he took to get to Kentucky, what it was like playing for Rick Pitino all those years ago and the difficulty of making the transition from college, where it is a family atmosphere, to the pros, where it very much is a business.
