I just keep going back to Givens saying it super randomly because why would he just say that for no reason. He had to of heard it from someone that knew or he thought for sure knew. He said it with certainty as well.
I do agree everyone on here is just guessing. Also, I’m not a pope hater(not saying you implied that) but I am most certainly frustrated at the roster construction the last 2 years and especially this year. You can only shop wisely so much before you get cooked.
Obviously I hope it works out and they have a great season but I’m in the camp of if it doesn't go well this season it’s time to move on to someone else.
I don't think Pope is shopping unwisely and I'm sure he's throwing out some big *** offers (to borrow Will's words), he's being negatively-recruited and he's unfortunately going to have to overcome that with whatever's given to him. There are so many selfish players nowadays that ALL think they are God's gift to humanity, and they just don't want to hear about fellowship, being good stewards, playing for one another, all that stuff. It's gimme, gimme, gimme, build my brand.
