He played Pope and UK for a month

Stokes is a ******* clown. Hope he slips on Self's hair.
No that would be our brain dead coach.
Lol, I literally called this like 2-3 weeks ago. And I'm a nobody.
**** this assclown.
Made a mockery of Rupp while in bed with KU.
I hope someone steps up to the plate and shuts him down when we play

It is probably the worst staff of all the bluebloods, UCLA included.
Can you imagine the circle jerk these guys do each day of the Stokes recruitment as they were building "positive momentum?"

Nobody knows what Tyran was telling the coaches during this, if he's saying he's coming you have to continue the pursuit
Stokes seems ethically challenged at best
I'm not trying to change the mood by no means because it's not going to do any good but he looked about as bad as he could possibly look on TV right then. This was the straw that broke the camel's back with Pope . Holding out hope for a little positive news. I feel for the guy because it's going to be complete hell from the fans
We will all be glad this MF’er didn’t come before it’s all over. Mark it down. He’s the ultimate diva drama queen and would’ve been a team cancer
So a kid, who’s mom had to remind reporters that they’re from LOUISVILLE, that quite literally said “I do not want to play for Kentucky” went on to play UK and its staff like a fiddle and our coach who was smart enough to get into Columbia’s med school still felt like we were in real contention…that’s um, interesting…not to mention the character flaws that that exhibits from a kid who swears up and down that he doesn’t want the spotlight of being the #1 player but goes on national television to promote himself and his commitment. Just glad we’re off that rollercoaster ride. He better be everything and more next year for Kansas, who may I remind you, lost their entire roster and is relying primarily on freshman and a coach with well documented heart problems who was just considering retirement.
Just wish Pope had had sense enough to move on from him a long time ago
A coach with a kill or be killed mentality would immediately offer and land Graves, Momcilovic and whoever else he needed. And make it a mission to shove it up KU and Stokes *** when we play. Unfortunately we have Pope.
Everyone with half a brain knew this was going to be the outcome. There was no mystery in this. I even said on a thread that if I was Bill Self I would play this out as long as possible to screw UK. If this whole thing was Pope trying to save face because he knew it was doomed then I will give him a modicum of credit.
But if Pope actually believed he was coming to UK then he is a fool and has "zero" ability to read recruits. He will continue to get played as long as he is at UK.

Neither is Pope.
Ah, another deflection for a coaching staff that is now starting to smell like rotting fish.
So how did that same staff do with Collins, Holt, Rippey, Stokes, Branch, Smith, Crowe, Thompson, Kinney, Howard, Peterson, Ament, Cenac, Wilson, Yessoufou, Brown, Lewis, and Mullins?
Did they land any of those guys?
Literally been telling you guys this dude has been trolling for like a month now
Good for him. He showed how stupid and clueless Pope really is.
Will make it even better when we kick Kansas *** this season. I'm not scared of Kansas. Stokes is good I wanted him. But pooper clagg was good and we kicked his ***
UK's been playing your Candy Commodores for 100 years.
Where's your evidence that Pope wagerd the entire season on Stokes? You don't have any because there is none.
How the f*ck did he let a teenager play him for a fool like that? Wasted the whole portal cycle for a kid he never had the chance with. What the flying crap is wrong with this man?
Pope's incompetence cannot reasonably be defended. There is literally nothing he does well. His 1996 teammates need to step in immediately and tell him to resign.
Why does CMP attract so many coaches, media members, and players that seem to want to mess with him? We’ve seen coaches taunt the man. Something is seriously wrong with them that he attracts so much ire from his peers.
It's like Ted Lasso, but 1000 times worse in closing the deal.
Hell, can we hire Ted Lasso tomorrow?
Where did I say “Pope wagered the entire season on him”?
I just said Pope should’ve moved on from him a long time ago. Two different statements bub
Pope is easily Fooled. Not a great quality for someone coaching in the SEC.
No you don’t. You get him signed like KU did a month ago. It is truly an embarrassing look for pope and a culmination of his recruiting failures he has had here. He really should negotiate a buyout and step aside. I’d rather have the team coached by a different fan next year every game than endure another year of this stupid *** nonsense.
This smells like a Kansas troll job, Stokes was merely the puppet and played along. They despise UK. Just passed a whole bunch of schools on my hate rankings. Eff them.
The whole staff was fired and Mo was added and we have the same problem. It's Pope.
I still don’t get what the kid’s motive was to play us like this.
Was it just to be an as*hole?
So if Pilgrim is reporting this did he know? Or like always he’s just reporting it after the fact again because couldn’t he tell them this information a month ago? Why did he come back, free meal? I mean this staff must be just totally blind. I don’t get it and have never seen anything like it at a major program.
