I heard about his injury and tuned into the game and they had 38 points, they had 84 with 10 minutes left in the game without him. Tennessee loses either Gillespie or Ament and they might not even score 25 in a half.

Or Randle in the title game. Hell WCS in that title game. Still have to tip it off, regardless of who you have
Is it had to be or has to be?
I mean, the data supports it. But you're honestly allowed to feel however you want, even when you're wrong.
Haven't most people been begging for BG and JJ to leave? So, you're arguing that Lowe and JQ are better than our shittier players that most don't want playing?
The data supports what?! That JJ and BG are better options than Lowe and JQ?! Lmao let’s see that “data”. I’ll wait. Or the data supports that we’re better without them?! Don’t buy that either.Is it had to be or has to be?

EDIT: Point is that BG and JJ wouldn’t even be playing if JQ and Lowe were available.
I know. How can anyone see that a person on a message board, who wants UK to get an accomplished coach to become a premier program again, isn't a UK fan, I don't know what else it will take.
You’re not a UK fan. Again, you’re not fooling anyone.I know. How can anyone see that a person on a message board, who wants UK to get an accomplished coach to become a premier program again, isn't a UK fan, I don't know what else it will take.
Two years is enough time really but we can count on you to join us next year when this ends up being more of the same next year.
It supports that we aren't better with them. Them being out isn't why we suck. We still sucked when they played. JQs dad shut him down for a reason and even eluded to as much.
You new to using the internet or something? Go looks up stats. Look at services like sports reference. It's not hard.
Um, they were literally all playing when those 2 were playing.
We need to lose so Pope can get fired!!!!! Even though he's getting a third year even if we lose by 50. Yea, losing a game and keeping the same coach is better than winning the game and keeping him.
Question for you, what did Pope do to deserve to be hired for the job in the first place? It is based upon your statement saying he doesn't deserve to be fired.
I mean its honestly like half of Cals years here.. that we had impactful injuries thay changed the outcome of tournaments.. yet it feels like I thay time span Kentucky has played maybe 20 opponents (out of like 400) that had an injury that made me think "oh this will help UK". Im sure its more. Im sure im missing some.. but not many.
Winning gets him to another sw16 and extension, which morons will use as an excuse to keep him. Losing is for the best right now.
You realize hoping someone stays a long time doesn't mean hoping we keep him a long time while not meeting standards right? Right? I hope he's here 20 years because you don't stay here 20 years without WINNING. Don't watch the game if the only happiness you can gain is us losing another game and NOTHING changing
I doubt Iowa St will break much of a sweat against Kentucky. Probably would’ve gotten a more difficult game if they played Santa Clara. Maybe they’ll have him back for the Sweet 16. But who knows.
Him losing pushes more people away from him, which hopefully pulls more money from the program and causes a change.
You all do remember Joker and only being here 2 years, right? BCG?
I know the latter had personal issues, but I guarantee if he won more, those would have been overlooked.
Bro. We could already be sitting at home and he would still be here. If you can't enjoy UK winning until he's gone, don't watch the games and don't post here. Us losing this game doesn't get ANYTHING you are wanting.
I disagree. I have been a fan my entire life. I have watched a lot of good and a lot of bad. Probably more bad than good at this point. Our reputation as elite started with Rupp and that time is not as relevant now. We have history but not like the best current history for titles. The wins are still there but many of the titles were before you were required to win 6 games in the tournament. We are on a slippery slope now. Anyone that thinks it is easy to get back on the top is miss informed. If you let go of the rope you are done. If this guy isn't the right guy and many believe he is not, then the time for change is the exact moment you come to that conclusion.
I'm not so sure of that.
And I can't enjoy it until Pope is gone, but I will still watch when I want and post here when I want. Since you're the one that's bothered, maybe you should not be here or put me on ignore. Best of luck!
He. Isn't. Going. Anywhere. Tf does joker like 15 years ago in a completely different sport have to do with anything? Pope did more his first year than BCG in both. You need to get over the fact he's here next year win or lose. Making the tournament at all was enough for that. You need to come to terms with that
If you can’t tell, I’m past playing nice with the ones who tell me I’m not a fan for supporting the program. Time to start playing their game and giving it back. Shouldn’t have been permitted here, but it is, so I can either tuck tail or fight back. I choose the latter. As for that poster, told on himself. And I mean it with chest voice, anyone sitting down to watch a UK game and cheering for the other team is NOT A FAN PERIOD.
You're spending a lot of time arguing with someone you believe to be a troll. You protecting your digital turf or something?
The guy rooting for us to lose because he can't grasp the reality of the situation is telling actual fans, one that's been on this board since 2004 that he needs to leave. No wonder you're here, you'd be laughed out of your own house in person. Bothered? I'm enjoying still playing basketball in March. You're the one that has a stick up his ***
What did Pope do? Do we get banners for any of these "things"?
So that's the UK standard now?
You're enjoying beating 10 seeds most people have never heard of an a hail Mary buzzer beater? And enjoying essentially being a laughing stock of CBB and a major disappointment in terms of expectations? And you think you're a real fan? Interesting....
You're the one complaining, bud.
My God, you're an unhinged child. You’re not going to listen to a voice of reason, just continue on with your temper tantrum.

If we have a fully healthy team and he still loses 10 games, I'll be the first one to help him pack.
That's what you f*ckstick's aren’t comprehending. We keep saying he probably isn’t the right guy, but his issues are easily fixable. If he doesn't fix them next year, he nedds to he canned.
I don't care what you guys think, but injuries matter and his two seasons at UK have been riddled with injuries. That matters.
Again, we have all said it a thousand times… . write it down.
MARK POPE NEVER SHOULD HAVE BEEN HIRED, WE ALL KNOW THIS. HE DIDN'T HAVE THE QUALIFICATIONS.
Hopefully you remember it this time.
There are no less than 5 dudes trying to explain the situation to you, but you're not listening, you're an immature child at best.
If every post you make on this board isn't whining about Pope (like some of the accounts on here) than you're obviously just a "glazer/pumper" of his.
Lol, the 5 dudes that are all a product of group think and fans of Pope. That's not reason, bud.
Also, there are several in agreement with me. They not credible either?
