Aaaaand this is why Pope takes a beating on here. His teams play like this way too often. I don't think the talent level matters, Pope is the common denominator. He just can't do this.

His teams hit a little adversity and they immediately fold. When the head of the program is soft, the team is going to be soft.
Caleb Holt says he's the funniest guys he's met. How do you think the current team feels about him? They don't fear him. You gotta fear your coach. This hire was a total disaster.

The great thing about Popes teams at Kentucky is when they start losing they do it right..we don't have to sit on the edge of our seats and pray the opposing teams don't hit one at the horn to beat us....we get stomped to death so we can relax.

You’d think there would be a little more urgency for UK. Looks like the Cats definitely want to play on the first day of the SEC tournament.

Popes gonna be here next year. For the program I hope he takes a long look at everything and decides changes have to be made. But if he runs out a team devoid of talent like this one, regardless of injuries. And that team strolls out there like they’re in pregame walkthrough. It absolutely is gonna be the last.

When your point guards get called for touch fouls and have 2 fouls each in the first half, you're screwed.
But yeah, our lazy play and sub patterns suck. This team is going nowhere.

You didn’t watch the first half hoss, it’s over now the damage is done. We are laying down now but the first half was controlled by the refs.
No it wasn’t. Just an easy excuse

This team goes as Aberdeen goes and that's not even foolproof. TAMU has held him in check

No. This year needs to be his last. Our peers have gained enough on our all time stats as is. Bleeding needs to stop ASAP. Pope's garbage bargain bin portal team, in year 3. Isn't doing anything. Even if we get Stokes. It's just gonna be Jodie Meeks carrying his team all over again.
