People are gonna say mountains outta molehills but that’s bullsh it. You’re right.
Pope really screwed this kid —he’s so over his head on how to do this.

Mcbride to UK
- Thread starter cornbreadnmilk
- Start date
But aren't you used to Pope being so awkwardly out of tune with everything that it only makes sense?
The guy is a complete failure.
I don't think anyone will.
Maybe Pope wouldn’t take his commitment until he knew Stokes wasn’t coming. I don’t understand why that would be but it’s all I can think of.
Just pure stupidity from the staff. Keagan Brown is really righting the ship.
Getting a mid transfer from James Madison isn’t any consolation to worry.
McBride is a good player. The staff didn't crap on him, the fans on RR are crapping on him. He is a good player. There is no reason we shouldn't outbid everyone for Momcilovic and we have the slot at SF waiting for him with talent around him
Nobody is mad at him.
Myself, I truly feel sorry for the kid. He didn't deserve to be done this way.
I guess that’s why Crawford turned Pope Down because he KNEW Stokes wasn’t coming here no matter what.
Maybe that is when McBride wanted to announce it. Ever think of it that way?
I agree. Wait a couple days to announce this. The kid would take an uncalled for beating from the fan base anyway but at least the optics might look better.
If I make a negative post you can rest assure it’s deserving. I’m like 99 percent of the UK fans we’re tired of losing!
Take solace in the fact that today hopefully seals his fate.
Agreed! We need a coach with integrity and a moral compass at UK. We should go ahead and let Pope go for this act.
Pretty crappy move by Pope. McBrides commitment was never going to make fans feel better about losing Stokes. He used the kid in a terrible way. He should have let the kid have his own moment.
If you want him gone some real big dogs going to have to really really step up and make it so.
It can be done. You could fire him if you wanted to..
Without an athletic director I'm not sure how that works about firing his sorry *** but we should look into it

He’s going to whiff on him too. You know it deep down. If we even get him to consider us. Probably will to up his value. That is the only reason we keep making these lists.
To me if I was McBride I'd be pissed. It's like a major sign of disrespect to the kid.
It's like we know you want to come here but can you wait till after we find out about Stokes?
Like what?
I’m going to look at it that way, McBride wanted to rain on stokes parade. McBride wants to be here, stokes never did, just a drama queen.
The dude is 3rd team All Sunbelt, he deserved better...
Man, I get he's a good player. That's fine. But it can also be true that the UK staff did him wrong. If they did ask him to preempt Stokes' announcement, they did him wrong.
It‘s like BBN had their throat slashed and Pope handed us a band-aid.
I guess Ndiaye is the backup and McBride the starter…
Who cares? None of this matters at all until Pope is gone. Mcbride, No Mcbride, who cares. We are talking about a portal player ranked in the 2 hundreds.
Glad to have mcbride but this isn't shaping up good overall. If nothing else we've seen nobody really wants to come here anymore. I don't see that changing under Pope.
There is a dark cloud over UK Basketball, and its Mark Pope.
I admire the Popettes for their never ending gay love for Pope.
I think Stokes let them kniw ot was Kansas and this was their way of saying FU and moving on.
There are still guys that we are in on that could set us up well for next season I actually like most of the moves we have made. We need a big time scorer/shooter. We have tge money, go get it done. Every program in the country wanted Stokes, final three teams or not, tgere were a hundred other schools that "whiffed" on Stokes as well
He's a clown. Simple as that.
