I’m convinced our 2025 team makes the FF if not for all the damn injuries!
I don’t think so. The mindset of a lot of those players like Robinson and Kerr who was sold to UK fans as this fantastic exciting player. Not a chance. Such a weak mindset. Roobinson wouldn’t do what the team needed. Nope that team wasn’t close to any success. We got smashed with a pretty healthy team by UT. As long as pope is coach we aren’t making a ff. There is no doubt in my mind. The guy doesn’t have the consistency to have success at UK. All we are doing is waiting pope and Mitch’s awful decision out

You sound more stupid ever time I see one of your post. Look forward to your 1500 word rebuttal proving my point.

Duke. Gonzaga. UT twice. Most wins vs Top 15 teams all time. How convenient you left those out.

100% correct, everyone could see Robinson was SOFT examples he contributed absolutely nothing in the big Duke, Gonzaga, Tennessee wins.

Pope needs to show first game out that the team respects him, demonstrate last year was a complete fluke. If the team ever quits on him again like last year’s Gonzaga, I support mid season coaching change. If they are 3rd or worse in the SEC, I can wait until the end of the year.

He was one of the most unique players I've ever seen. Never really figured him out but he could have been a force in college.
I always felt like his biggest issue might’ve stemmed from the fact he didn’t necessarily grow up with basketball like someone from the states. I think if he can hold a roster spot he will just get better and better. If he could also just develop a 3 point shot he would have a very long career.

Jaxson was forced to play PG due to Butler and Krissa injuries and was one of the best players on the court that day. Your hatred has blinded you from seeing the truth. Seems to be par for the course these days with some of our fans.

Pope really developed Amari. Made him a pro. He’s doing the same with Moreno. Center whisperer. Will help in recruiting.

Like the team he has assembled this year.
In what way did Pope develop Amari?

What skill did he leave with that he didn’t come in with?

If anything he got worse. He was conference defensive POY for 2 or 3 seasons. Then when he got to UK he couldn’t guard his shadow.

Same question for Moreno. What skill did he have at the end of the season that he didn’t get to UK with?

I do agree that Pope’s development of players has certainly affected recruiting.

According to Rafters almost every UK team should have or would have made a final four if this happened or that happened.

If Rafters logic worked we would have 20 titles amd like 50 final fours n the Rafters.

AND played PG against Tennessee and some PG against Gonzaga. Yet, he did nothing in those games. Lmao sure seems so many posters are being willingly obtuse/dishonest or just don’t know what they’re talking about. One or the other. Can’t be both.

Lmao we were without Kerr, Robinson and had a half of a Butler and 3/4 of Carr. I mean it isn’t a stretch to say that team would’ve made the FF healthy. Hell, with just Robinson, Carr and Butler healthy we had a great shot.

While I agree injuries hurt our chances- let’s not pretend Kerr would’ve contributed anything if healthy. What a disgrace he was in a UK uniform - he may as well be charged for defrauding BBN along with the others he stole from.
