He better get used to typing that. Might wanna make a macro.

 

[MegaBlue05]

The entire “Sources Say” and “smoke signals” thread.

Nothing but a bunch of premature hand wringing and whining over something that wasn’t official either way.

0 percent chance Robinson to Kentucky

 

[ganner918_rivals60369]

I didn't save it, but the person on here who called it "copium" to say that he could have withdrawn from the draft last night without a public announcement.

They have already pivoted to thinking they get Hawkins or Kaluma

 

[FilsonCat]

There were some hilariously bad takes by old order legion of doomers, trolls both new and old. And of course the portion of the fanbase that need anxiety meds stat.

Robinson to UK made a heck of a lot of sense then, and makes sense now that it is confirmed.

He's going to be a critical part of what Pope is putting together. His signing probably completes the roster short of a Riley reclass or developmental big.

 

[Kingslayer07]

I said if he came back to college UK was the choice, no doubt.

I haven't seen anything. Robinson obviously one of the kind of guys that would do anything to not go back to school. Strange to me from the standpoint that he could have worked on his rebounding and passing at the college level one more time.

I say pass on the kid. If he's that reluctant to come back to school, he'll be a problem at UK.

This is pure copium

WTF is copium, some new made up word?

 

[ChicagoCat90]

If it wasn't for misinformation we'd barely get any information at all!

Copium is a special element just outside of the periodic table that allows the user to calm themselves before making a foolish, often explosive reply. I don't believe there's any quantity allocated to most on this board.

You said it.

It basically refers to the mental gymnastics or deflection necessary to cope with an unwanted outcome. Cope being the key word.

It's derived from the slang-esque "cope," an assertion to essentially shut up and sit in your misery.

 

[FilsonCat]

Now the trolls and doomers get to cope and seethe for a while as they regroup. Some folks seemed very eager to be edgelords before anyone had an actual idea about what had happened. The Robinson news really made the day of any actual UK fan.

We’ve got way too many fans that freak out way too soon. Annoying as hell. At least they care, but it’s the very least in my book.

I was the guy who that poster called my post “copium” for saying an announcement wasn’t required either way

That looks like Calipari after a typical first round loss.

Anything and everything Cornbread and a few others have typed since Coach Cal left.

He replied and said "nothing is 100%"

 

[Cole World]

That "sources say live" thread is one of the most embarrassing things I've seen on this website in my 16 years coming to it

Yeah, it was an agonizing wait, I will admit. I wouldn't blame anyone for losing hope that he'd be coming to UK. I would, however, caution anyone about making a post when you're angry or upset calling out a particular player, and especially one who may still be joining our team and hasn't announced anything to make his decision known. It's just not a wise move and it can end up causing yourself some embarrassment. This is also why I rarely ever post here during live games.

I'm so glad Robinson decided to come to UK. He gives the Cats that guy who can get his own if and when the offense hasn't produced a quality shot. Could we have made it without him? Yes, I'm sure there was a plan B. But this is a guy who not only is an NBA level talent (he will get there), he also knows Coach Pope and knows the system inside and out. He's a huge piece of the puzzle.

This was the one that got me. A college kid about to make possibly the most important decision of his life, up to now, isn't moving fast enough for one of our countless RR blowhards. So it's a hard pass.

I sometimes wonder if some of these folks have a full blown toddler meltdown at the slightest hint of adversity in their lives. We had posters writing off the season last night and nothing official about Robinson had been reported.

There is no way that they aren’t completely insufferable to be around. Zero chance.

I’m hoarding it
Sorry!!

Imagine these people having so little hope and going negative so quickly over a game, how they react when something that is actually important in their lives is not looking so rosy. No wonder so many people in this world are depressed, low self esteem, etc.

 

[BarefootBeach_anon]

I've checked about 5-6 threads in last few hours and the usual negative nancies, I'm being polite, seem to have scurried back into the dark. Methinks they are having a bad day.

They really missed an opportunity with Popium. It was right there for the taking.

Social Media, anonymous posting temper tantrum syndrome! When all you do all day is set in front of a phone screen talking to people you don’t know, it is your only reality.

Speaking of which, I need to hide my phone from myself!! Seriously, since Pope was hired, I have spent way to much time on this board!!!

Games threads don’t count. We set that rule years ago I thought.

I was more frustrated that it looked like he was gonna stay pro when he had no real shot at being drafted. That would’ve given me eye twitches. UK has money. And had he just said “Nah. I’ll go G League” that would’ve just been mind blowingly frustrating.
