Is this real or AI? I’m serious. This dude didn’t really say this right?
Im fine with all the coaching criticism he’s getting. But the Mormon crap and other personal stuff is stupid and childish.
Donovan pulled his junk out and peed in our face. Twice.
Ugh please huh the entire government is involved with raping kids for going on 40 years and we all know it it's just freakin basketball. We all blew off murder come down to it
Like others said, we need more context. I post it when I was emotional. I wanted to know what the question was beforehand.
What 'power' are you referring to, Mark? Is it a Jedi power? Spidey power? Ninja turtle power? I'm quite certain it has nothing to do with grabbing rebounds with two hands, setting hard picks, taking open shots.
Pope and pals are gonna act like nothing is wrong once they beat a last place South Carolina by 1 on Tuesday.
How much does Darth Pope cost?
Hard for me to see Donovan coming here but I gladly keep saying he's my #1 choice if we need a coach next year. I don't see his tenure with the Bulls lasting much longer and the stars might align if Donovan wishes to continue coaching. I still think we should've just waited for the NBA playoffs to be done two years ago and nabbed him. Yes, we would've been behind a recruiting 8-ball but suffer through the bad season and we are on a better trajectory the following year.
Trust in that. For all his flaws as a coach, I can all but guarantee that he isn't talking about the UK fans. He was talking about things in the environment of the game...and it was an away game.
UK is nothing without the fans.
Yep. Barnhart made a terrible mistake.
Well for a man who is supposed to be so smart, he communicates like a moron.
Not sure if anyone posted this yet.
Brad Stevens is another one I would love here, but he's not leaving his seat. Bruce Pearl? He would already have ripped so many of the kids new axe holes.
Yeah it was real clumsy. He was emotional. I was too. That one view where you saw Chandler so.happy because he thought he was going to the line and then he realized what was happening. Made me sick to my stomach.
The Pope era at UK is over. It just hasn’t been time stamped yet.
He’s dead man walking until it is.
It would be different if he was doing the best he could with what he has. But he’s not. UK basketball is a rudderless ship.

I’m surprised he didn’t call us basketball Bennies!
He’s lost it. He’s melting Under the pressure.
Hmmm! Hold me accountable. And I understand the assignment.

The only think I think about the Mormon stuff is I don’t see how someone who believes that can fit in with corrupt SEC sports. You literally cannot do the things you need to do to be good. He can’t cheat, nothing corrupt at all, can’t curse, can’t scream and chew out.
It’s literally everything that you must be to be a college head coach in this league lol. Mark should have stayed at a Mormon college. This isn’t for him.
He wasn't talking about UK fans. Be mad at him for anything else but not because he badmouthed us.I’m surprised he didn’t call us basketball Bennies!

I thought he was the squeaky clean Mormon who didn’t say words like “mother f****rs”.
Now you guys said... you hated when Cal turned on the fans.
Now this whiny goof is doing it, and doesn't even have the courtesy to win games, get recruits, or play exciting basketball.
I listened to this and pretty sure he said 'mother fers' not '*************' and not MFers. Some hybrid ****.
Watch this. You think he is blaming UK fans. He is livid. Said Oweh was playing 1 against 8.
Our former coach , used to say “Kentucky is not for everyone “….
Mark Pope loves Kentucky. I like him as a human being but unfortunately he is proving every day that Kentucky head coaching job is too big for him.

Pope should’ve kept his mouth shut in that press conference for obvious reasons. It’s not a good idea to say things like that in front of the media. I know it’s tough when someone’s mad but theirs a time and a place for everything and that wasn’t it.
Mitch IS the problem.
