That Iowa vs Nebraska game was a good one. Glad I watched it

I suggested the Iowa coach last year and someone said you don’t want him, he plays a slow boring style.
looks like all he does is wins.

4 division two national titles. 30 wins at Drake in one season. Elite 8 at Iowa in one season. He’s just 44 that’s an insane resume.
If Mitch was gonna hire a nobody that would have been the better choice
I think there are 2 apparent things.
1. Ben McCollum can coach.
2. Kentucky should go after Sandfort from Nebraska

* I have no respect for a team that flops like Purdue. But at least they didn't flop the last play

He does. It’s a very slow tempo. But efficient. Not sure how fan base would take it if he lost a couple in a row 58-55.
There were multiple division 2 coaches I would’ve hired over Pope and at least 3 to 4 dozen division 1 coaches.
“How did you get yourself into position for the tip in!”
I put my hand in the back of my opponent, pushed him under the baskets and went over the back.

I would think UNC looks into McCollum and Vandy’s coach. It seems like Sandfort is going to make every shot.
Exactly, Refs swallow whistles in these situations, but the Purdue big severely pushed the Texan under the rim to get that tip-in. A foul that would be called in the first half should be a foul with 1 second left.
Purdue dirty in general, hope they get smoked next round. Refs should not reward play like that
That’s exactly what he did, but they rarely call that in that situation
Pope needs time to get his guys and build a culture. We can't expect immediate results at UK. We just want to see a little progress each year.
Needs time? Lol sarcasm, right? Dude got one of the highest NIL budget in college basketball. Both Nebraska and Iowa went further than us.
I wonder why Pope didn’t compare himself to Cal’s first 2 seasons? Did the analytics not work out?
I can’t stand Purdue. Dirty as hell, flopping bitches. It’s Painters way. Couple of things.
- Renn pushed the kid in the back but no call
- Miller has to have big guy in the game
- Purdue flops all over the court

He gets one more year. He ***** that up and he’s not allowed to be seen in the state of Kentucky ever again
i wanted him when we took pope but barnhardt never would have looked at a d2 coach and most of our fans scoffed. i get it though. he’s going to win a lot of games. just a basketball savant.
i will say, he is very methodical and that’s also going to lose him some games as the favorite
Ben McCollum is the Curt Cignetti of this basketball season. He has torn up the excuse card for coaches who don't get it done in season one.
Just saying. Pearl has been 1 degree away from UK all year. And he's literally sitting next to Mashburn.
Past 10 PM ET tip times for both games brutal for those who work in the morning like me
NCAA and networks gonna push for the Purdue in Indy storyline, gonna be hard to beat.
Purdue really stayed on the line the entire second half. How many fgs did they have the last ten minutes? I think just 3.
TKR's been doing this all season. Grabbed a guy's nuts then flops pretending he injured his shoulder.
