If you’re looking for a coaching change, that’s a full year away.

Im dealing with the right now
I'm on my seventh Caucasian (White Russian) of the day.
Per UKathletics.com, "Prior to his time with the Herd, Brown spent five seasons with Pope at BYU where he advanced from video coordinator to director of player personnel. In that role, he was involved in scouting coordination, roster construction planning, NIL strategy and allocation, and integrating analytics into personnel decision-making."
That said, Mark Pope hired a buddy and probably "yes man".
Seems like the longer this goes, the less likely he’s coming here.
Good for you. Go ahead and reserve your NIT tickets. Im focusing on the inevitable which is a brighter future with a better leader.
Negotiations is the biggest role for a GM. It’s clear this staff has no ability to recruit.
So? It's not our money and if Pope has a season like last year the new AD might tell him to kick rocks. He's gotta deliver this year and they've apparently got plenty left to spend. What's the solution then, spend less, suck next year, then hope to keep that money for another year and pray your job is safe for a year four?
When it comes to athletes being paid, whether Joe Burrow, Shohei Ohtani, Tyran Stokes or Milan Momcilovic I ask myself two questions:
1. Is it my money?
2. Is there a real reason it should matter to me?
The answer to both is always no.
I've noticed that almost always those who DO care are agenda posters, so I ignore what they are saying.

Then why not take a break from the board until then? Surely, you aren’t going to copy and paste the same post for a full calendar year? I’m frustrated with the coach as well, and if he doesn’t get Mom I expect he loses all the remaining support he has…..
But having zero nuance and repeating the same talking point not only becomes irritating…it’s also ineffective.
I replied to your post about why the player isn’t worth the value. I treated as a serious point and VOILA flip over the card and it’s another “Mark Pope sucks” post. We have heard it enough, most of us agree with it by now. The horse is dead.
But perhaps you don’t know until you’ve heard everyone’s final offer.
Just from reading the hints, it sounds to me like what may have happened here is he had VERY nearly finalized his decision …until UL or AZ indicated they might be able to come up with more to match our offer.
He won't lose all of the support. Some people seriously think the team, as it stands now, is actually good. I obviously vehemently disagree with that, but he won't lose all support
You replied to me. If you don’t like what I have to say then you can move on. Sorry I don’t give the fools warm fuzzies by being honest. Im gonna keep telling it like it is til something changes. And he’s already lost all support from any fan who has half a brain. No matter where this dude chooses to play at changes nothing.
I mean support from the people that pay the bills. Not fans. Some fans care more about winning some theoretical war of opinions with other fans than the product itself. I’m talking about donor and booster support. Reports they will be very cranky if Pope doesn’t close.
4 person team of people that already worked for UK, none of which are GM's. It doesn't matter that the coach has the final say, it's about negotiating deals and getting them done quickly, which Pope is not good at(as reported by Pilgrim and Polacheck).
Hey, you do you.
If your post is “this player is overvalued”, then you can expect people to assume your post is about the player being overvalued.
My mistake for taking your point literally. I’ll wait until we get a new coach to respond to you since your posts aren’t meant to be taken literally.
Damn, did we already play the season and not make the tourney? I must have missed that.
What are the specific “financial and other incentives” that come from announcing on June 1 instead of May 31?
But, but trustworthy, non sleeze bags like Jeff Goodman and Matt Jones would never propagate fake stories just to get clicks, would they???
Sad

Blows my mind. Who cares about $1 million in the grand scheme of things in a full Kentucky basketball season. Lock him up. Louisville has drastically overpaid for their players.

Just got out of lockup for some trumped up PI charge. Did we land Milan yet?
I told you not to drive the damn bus after that liquor store stop yesterday bruh.
Just get rid of the coach and get a coach that knows how to sell the program and use its resources properly… that would save money in the long run. No one but his close friends and family want him here. Even former teammates are questioning his practice methods which says a lot to me
That’s my thought too actuallyAnyone else besides me think it’s going to be Arizona when it’s all decided? It’s been VERY quiet on that front, and that usually means something… Just saying
Matt has been engagement farming since he created KSR honestly. It’s business for him.
Asked my wife to get plastic surgery so she looks more like Milan, so now I have boom every time I wake up
That’s what an Utah Valley State coach would say….. he’s in the deep end and can’t even tread water
Who knows but with our past failures it doesn’t feel good.
There are plenty of trolls here to be sure. But if I was going to troll as a fan of another program,I would want Kentucky to keep Pope. I would be pumping him up bigtime.
