Pitino is going to end up getting Pope fired

[ChocoChicken]

If the rumors are true, that St. John’s is offering Freeman more money, that’s going to be catastrophic for CMP if he can’t pull a rabbit out of a hat and land Momcilovic or Graves.

Losing out on Rancik and Freeman will likely doom CMP. There’s no sugar coating this situation, that’s how badly we needed one of these players and the other options are not good enough.

But I cannot help but point out the irony if Pitino ends up knocking down the first the domino that ends up getting his former player fired with this move with Freeman.

That domino has already fallen

Ironic considering he got Pope the job.

 

[4UK4life1]

First year: I’ll give you NIL money myself if you need it

Third year: I’m gonna make sure you spend it

 

[BBPirate]

Just another reason to like Pitino

 

[TNCatfanforever]

Barnes and UT have entered the Freeman Sweepstakes contest as well. His agent is playing the Cats for lots more $$$$$

I believe that was Jeff Sheppard.

Then they should pay it. Is this not Kentucky?

They should start acting like it.

Rumors, why post rumors. Attention whores

I couldn’t believe Pitino did not get fired when Pope beat Pitino. The standards at St. John’s have really dropped.

You had a great Quaintance game

 

[ToniTonyToneDelkDelkDelk]

Even when he's gone he's still helping.

 

[Hughhefner]

Pope is getting himself fired, he doesn't need Pitino's help. Maybe Pitino can speed the process up.

a guy nobody was talking about two weeks ago is now the lynchpin to Pope's failed coaching strategy

is that what I'm reading?

He’s been talked about since he entered the portal, what do you mean? And yes, because what other good options are there at the 4 now?

Pope is going to get himself fired.

He’s a disaster in so many ways!

 

[Dr.LutherSan]

If true...whoof. However, money talks...

Let’s be honest…he’s an injury waiting to happen and regardless who wins this bidding war, he’s gonna miss some games for them. Syracuse insiders didn’t sound to worried about him transferring either. “ they won some big games without him and lost some easy games with him”

 

[MonsterMash79]

More than likely he’ll stay up north if this is the case

 

[UKCowboys]

I don't blame Pitino lol, he is St John's coach, he has a team to build over there, Pope has one here. Competition isn't backstabbing

 

[Gobigblue812812]

Is Pitino getting the UK AD job?

The last thing Kentucky needs is another injury prone player. I’d say move on from him.

 

[-BBH-]

If we are truly a million behind then he gone.

 

[UKWildcats1987]

I mean anyone of us are taking the st johns money in that scenario. More money, better boss that puts u in a position to succeed, etc.

 

[Monday Nitro]

LOL at the Pitino fawners that think he gives a flip about UK. He simply wanted to stick it to Cal.

Mark Dope will be gone after next season

Should have taken Rancik Saturday when he wanted to commit

Boy, you sound like a road scholar.

Exactly. Everyone loses their **** over the money but it will in fact go up every year until a cap is put in. We should beat everyone for a player we want if it only comes down to money.

 

[DelkBowl]

Good

There are not many quality 4s left, if any. This guy's upside could be really good if he can stay healthy.

Well said

You are correct until there is a salary cap of some sort, each year people are going to ask for more money. The longer guys stay in the portal, agents will use that to leverage more money as well.
