I knew you would be determined to turn this into a bad thing, regardless of what happens. Only a dumbass like you would think getting the best three-point shooter in the nation is a no situation.
I’m just realistic.

The best three point shooter may get us as high as 5th in the SEC and as far as the **** 16 for MMM(Mid Major Mark)

We went from CCC to MMM.

To some extent, there’s an element of these things in any system, but without a “set play”, the need for proficiency in each of those categories is amplified in the continuity offense Pope uses.

This is why not everyone can run it. When it’s run correctly, it is extremely difficult to defend against.
I guess his teams rarely run it correctly then? The "video game offense" BYU team got eliminated by Duquesne.

2025 was a top 10 offense in KenPom, kind of insane considering the roster situation and the injury problems.

2026 was abysmal.

I think the difference in 2025 and 2026 can be summed up by having the right personnel for your offense versus trying to just make it work.

Defense is a different story.
Now do the defense. You know i love you bro but your view behind them glasses might be a bit blue.

But I thought it was trending on X? X never lies! Announcement incoming??

Still think we get him but talk about taking a piece of good news (someone picking him to UK) and just running with it as if it's done.

Maybe I'm crazy, but I tend to believe a guy who runs a successful KSR over random anonymous X sources who could very easily just be a 20 year old with a fake account. But that's the world we live in now. That's not an endorsement of KSR in any way, but I believe them as a source over some of these fake insiders.

Stating facts isn't blue.

I wasn't talking about the defense. Scroll up to what I replied to.

If you care to know, the defense was bad --- that's obvious. No one would reasonably argue otherwise.

What the hell any of this has to do with discussing the fit for 5-out zoom offense in Mark Pope's system, I'll not know.

I like you too, Dudah but I'm pretty serious about staying on topic. And I never shy away from my opinions. They're never secret or hidden. Pope's defense has not been good enough at Kentucky. It was close to passable last year, but abysmal in year one.
I don’t need to scroll up. I saw you talking about the offense. That’s why I said now do the defense. If we can’t play defense, especially in the SEC. We will suck, like we have the last 2 seasons.

I’m not playing mind tricks my bud. Just saying.

If we lose him to Louisville man. Just fire him now. I’m dead serious. He’s had enough strikes. He absolutely can not lose Milan at this stage of the game. Once again this recruitment is playing out like every other major one this cycle.
If Pope loses MM somehow, we're going to need ITVI to revisit that 'B+' rating he gave Pope as a recruiter

and to be very, crystal clear, this has not happened at any other school with this many high profile players that were essentially locked up. This is 100% an outlier with Pope and Kentucky right now. And also a reminder Pope got 0 high school recruits this cycle (not counting mason williams or zyon hawthorne).

Said the same thing. I’m torn on wanting him to come and maybe us being decent but I don’t want pope extended. That experiment failed.
