It is the beginning of the end of Pope if we lose this kid. He had this season to prove he could do the job and he really needed MM to assist with that.
I said the exact same thing in a different way earlier in the thread. Stokes would have been enough, but he had the MM golden opportunity fall into his lap. It was really the perfect opportunity in EVERY way for both of them. If he somehow botches this, that’s it. Literally everyone will know it, and so will he.

Why would he turn down more money to go to freaking Louisville....if true I am going to lose it
How hard is it for fans to accept we have a coach that doesn't relate to younger kids with his awkward dork demeanor. These kids don't want to be babied like y'all think. Most players want a tough coach. Or a coach they can trust. Who in the hell is putting trust into Pope? Not many motha effas

Yes, you won’t see me wavering unless I hear otherwise. One day people will understand these “media” guys need eyeballs so 2-3 days without new news is bad for business. Therefore they must create a reason to get clicks and eyeballs on their content. The world could use more patience.
Yes. I mean most these guys said Monday or Tuesday a few days ago. What are they going to to until then? lol. They Got to get those likes and clicks somehow, it’s like cocoa leaves, made into some kind of powdery substance! 🤣 You all know what I’m talking about.

Being serious a second, I heard Torres and several others say By Tuesday and he wanted to take this weekend to make sure he had everything straight. I don’t know what he’s going to do, but you have never backed down from your position an I respect that.

He never backs down. What's your point? He doesn't know anything he hasn't read on Twitter

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
I want him here. I want to seek results. Negative thinking helps nothing. Let’s see how this year turns out.

Would be something if the true inside info in this recruitment was this high school politics **** (that has been public information I might add). I remember your thread on this (I think it was you? I don't remember the Anon numbers lol).
Yea like the same exact thing could be said for Louisville and Zona players lol! “Only some Louisville and Arizona players follow him, that must mean he’s going to both schools!” These guys all follow eachother, it’s not tea leaves until the final announcement is made

I’m going 10 million. Especially when you have two rivals trying to outbid each other. Crazy to think about

Then Moreno and his agents should have held out for more cash? If he isn’t satisfied he should find new representation. Or he wanted to come back and took a number he was happy with.
I think we need to leave Moreno out of this situation. I don’t think he cares what Milan gets. It won’t affect his playing time.

Nobody is forcing Pope to overpay. His lack of respect and street cred is. Guy should of never sniffed this job.

But ive seen it before. Even at my job...they promoted a new guy to become the supervisor over the whole department. He could barely do his normal job....

Turns out he knew he wasnt qualified and quit before he ever started. He was smart enough to know he couldn't handle the job. Wish Pope had that kind of self awareness.
