From the Louisville Courier-Journal: UK super fan Matt Jones: If I run against McConnell, I will still trash talk U of L
By PHILIP M. BAILEY
Kentucky Sports Radio host Matt Jones said Thursday that voters shouldn't expect him to stop lobbing insults at the University of Louisville if he does run for U.S. Senate in 2020.
The outspoken sports commentator, who is a Democrat, added that the national party is fully behind former Marine pilot Amy McGrath — another possible challenger to U.S. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell — and is shutting him out of the race.
Jones made the comments on a Thursday podcast after he read a question from a listener asking if he had been taking it easy on his beloved University of Kentucky's athletic rival because of a potential run for Senate.
