Mark Pope - “Have you heard about our lord and savior Joesph Smith?”

Top prospect/portal player - *clicks*

Mark Pope - “Oh no, I think my computer crashed.”
Half the kids on top of that list couldn't spell church fella, has zero to do with anything. This isn't BYU where you have to sign an honor code saying you can have premarital sex while you are there

The same ol posters 500 lbs, need to be introduced to exercise while eating potted meat, being the couch coach. Most players believe in God and he coaches Kentucky and did play in NBA and help Kentucky win the 96 title.
Former players read the board, and it is connected to ksr now. Being a mormon unless you are on a mission isn't what you think it is.

Keep posting threads like this as recruits will immediately discredit this place and the toddlers that play here.

If you wanna talk Zoom, let's talk Jeffrey Toobin of CNN. Actually, let's not.
i love the attempts at pretending players
/ families are on you side because “I said it” and take up causes against posters “I don’t like!”

If you don’t stop! They’re going to all end up at ole miss LSU and other small programs where they’re being recruitand won’t come here!

imagine thinking this lol.

Lol. "Toobin" is still a verb in a text thread with a bunch of my coaching and golf buddies.

consistent magical thinking where coaches at UK (except for Tubby, oddly enough) all fail because the fans and this board lack sufficient piety. Same guy took up for Cal when he called the fanbase Bennies. When fans can’t be blamed, then he trashes players. Trashes players, then turns around and says recruits won’t come here because of this message board. If you challenge him, he’ll bring up the fact that you’ve had more than one handle, despite having posted under half a dozen or more himself (of course, I’m immune from that one, having had just this one handle from the jump).

Anyway, worst human being on the board.

You’re always real concerned about people’s weight and their wives aren’t you

Yeah because y'all talk out of your ***, must have a miserable life. I jump to conclusions like you guys jump to say anything negative. Fair game? If I'm doom and glooming 247 when portal isn't close yet, and name calling I say my life must be miserable.

I’d be willing to bet less than 10 recruits even know what a “forum” is.

We are the digital equivalent of the papaws drinking coffee every morning at the local McDonald’s.

This.


Social media for teenage recruits will be Facebook, Instagram, Twitter(X), or any equivalent platform like that.

Lol, no kid being recruited by Kentucky is coming to the on3 message board to read this drivel.

If we are recruiting players that do not know about and visit this site, then how will they know what is expected of them by the greatest fanbase in all of sports?? :cool:

How in the world does BYU therefore get any recruits given the above? Maybe it is like court where you put your hand on the bible swearing to tell the truth and then of course no one does.

I would imagine thats exactly what happens...Just pointing out how absurd it is for anyone to say Pope's religious beliefs are part of the problem

It is a little weird bringing in a devout Mormon into Kentucky.

End of day, anyone who missed out on Dusty May's screwed the pooch. He was sitting right there, took FAU to the F4 and now he's a stud and everyone wants to play for him. Grew up one state over.

I swear, these guys are getting million dollars offers from multiple schools, but the difference is…. They checked on3 and looked at the whiff god meme and noped out.

That would’ve required firing Cal immediately after Oakland and eating that buyout. May was hired at Michigan on March 24, 2024. John Calipari didn’t resign here until April 9, 2024. Time line doesn’t work.

No recruits even know about this site.
Not that I care but you don’t believe this stuff isn’t used in negative recruiting against UK or any other school? I say yes but if a player can’t handle criticism then everyday life will be tough…. There’s toxic people everywhere but you just kill them with kindness

What crummy circumstances to lose out on a coach of that caliber, and cultural fit, the same year you need a new coach. Now they have banners and we have Pope Hope. I'm fully expecting Dusty to be a top 5 coach as long as he's at UM.
