We need to create a death pit where people can move their personal fights to rather than having threads hijacked like this. That is coming from someone who is as guilty as the next guy of doing it.
Only if it's an actual death pit where people have to actually meet in person. Not saying I want to fight any of the posters on here. But I think a lot of people would be less hostile if they had to confront the person they are speaking to. Or maybe we crowdfund and make them attend a game together and sit together and see if they still have the same grievances afterwards?

Put yourself in their shoes. First, you watch Collins come within a conversation of signing last November, a move that everyone predicted was locked in, until it wasn't.

Then you watch Mark Pope miss on 13 straight top 20 recruits. All of them visited Lexington. All of them told UK, "no thanks." But you still had hope that Stokes would come. After all, just like Collins, UK was the perceived favorite for Stokes in the fall of '25. Just like Collins, you tell Mark Pope that you will support him with another round of a significant war chest.

Mark Pope: "We'll need around $6.5 million for Stokes. Can you guys help?"
Boosters: "You got it, coach. We'll go all-in with you again."

And then decision day arrives for Stokes and you find out he'd already given a verbal to Kansas a month before and was just playing Pope the whole time.

But then a period of time passes and there is a Croatian sensation that is demanding around $6 to 7 million.

Pope asks for help again to land Kusturica.

Mark Pope: "We will need around $6.5 million for Kusturica. Can you guys help?"
Boosters: "You say he's a future top 3 pick someday? You've got it. We'll put together another warchest for you."

And then decision day comes and goes for Kusturica and you find out he was locked in to UCLA the entire time.

Rob Wright? The same. UK led until they found out there were getting played to up the maximum offer from BYU.

And then comes Mitchell. Coach Pope comes to you one more time and asks if you can help open the vault once more.

You swoop in and offer another virtually blank check. Pope thanks you with a hug and a promise but two weeks later you wake up on a Monday to discover that Mitchell is back on the Missouri campus with no intention of attending Kentucky.



At what point do you stop investing millions into the Mark Pope project and start restructuring those funds into a potential future buyout?
So why did we leave off
Zoom
Wilkins
Milo
Hampton for 2027
I don't know of NDaiya is a good get....but has potential
And we had Mitchell....the SEC was the one that basically pulled him attending UK.

Finally, this is part of NIL for any program.....so I don't see how I'd pin this on Pope.

Okay I didn't realize I needed to break this down to elementary school level for you, but, it appears that is necessary. You claim to be an attorney. Most of the board doesn't believe that to be true. So when I say your law degree is from a university that doesn't offer a law degree, that correlates proportionately to you being a fraud. Following? No? Do I need to break out the crayons and pop up books?

No having a jump shot is not the ONLY way to get college paid for. But apparently you didn't have a jumps shot, a high LSAT score, or a high GPA (hence the student loan debt you referenced yourself having earlier). Following? No?

Here you go arguing the difference between performance and salary when it should be performance verses worth. Any person with marginal intelligence would understand that you are hired with an initial pay structure based on expectations. You meet or exceed those expectations, you get a raise and/or elevate positions through promotion. Despite (even me) not liking the bar expected by the athletic department year 1, it was in his contract that if he made a Sweet 16, he got a 1 year extension onto the end of his original deal. Did Pope steal money from UK by meeting their agreed upon expectations? Please explain how well your accusation of theft against Mark Pope would hold up in an actual court room and not just the make believe court of opinion in your dense head. Pope not meeting mine (or yours) or anybody else's on this board does not equate theft, stealing, or any other lame claim you wish to throw at him. If he does not meet Batt's expectations this season, he will be fired, regardless of what you or I post on a message board.

Deflecting a grammatical error that was pointed out to make yourself look better, clever. If you are going to insult someone, learn how to spell it. That's advice homie, with plenty of substance.

So a government employee who doesn't take on cases that have to actually be argued and can be lost. Makes much more sense now. So, when you do a marginal job and fall short of expectations, are you stealing from the tax payers?

You appear miserable. If you are happy as a clam, it doesn't come off that way in your posts. Maybe you need a therapist to describe on the doll where Mark Pope touched you, maybe you just enjoy browbeating a program that was in full death spiral (thanks in no part to Mitch) long before Pope ever got called about the job.

That last paragraph is, again, a clever attempt to remove the spotlight from your inability to actually defend yourself. You make claims, then you pivot. Then you try and turn it on the person calling you out. It's hilarious to watch and the only reason I continue replying. You take the bait, hook, line, and sinker, each time I respond. You can't help it. And that's okay. I got nothing but time.
The joke was that I went to an online law school, had an online law degree. Therefore, you may want to pick an actual law school with an online program. Or, one that was ********, like, Whittier. Your attempt at using Phoenix was just poorly executed. It's why people aren't laughing at it. It makes no sense. If you have to try to explain why it does, you've already killed the joke. You seem to be the only one not getting that.

Um, you realize law school and living are very expensive. Having scholarships is not likely to pay for it all. For instance, I could be a Henry Clay scholar due to a 169 LSAT score and still have to take loans to cover the overall expenses. Again, these are things you clearly have 0 understanding of which is why the jokes aren't landing.

Lol, you implied making more is directly correlated to being successful. That isn't true. Plenty of successful people don't make that much, plenty unsuccessful ones make a lot. Again, was BCG successful at UK? Did he make a lot? Don't be afraid to answer.

But it is theft. I never claimed he would or could be criminally charged. If so, please point that out. Taking something you didn't earn nor deserve is theft. That is exactly what mark did and is doing. What did he due to earn 5 million a year? Break it down for us? What has he done to deserve to keep it? Since the answer is nothing, That's theft!

Who deflected it? Do you know what deflected actually means, because you've said it several times but have pointed to nothing that was deflected. I literally said I spelled the word wrong, I simply pointed out the weakness in that being your argument. That not a deflection.

Lol, all cases we take on have to be argued. We just don't proceed with cases we can't win. Or would you prefer wasting resources? How is that stealing? Isn't that preserving them?

I appear miserable...how so? I am just blatantly honest. Some, like yourself, don't like that.

He touched my soul with his poor coaching.

Lol, what have I not defended? I just pointed out the obvious.


Ohh, I imagine you have a lot of time.

Ohh, I imagine you have a lot of time.
We get it, you can't understand how saying your law degree has to be from an on-line college that doesn't have law degrees goes over your head. Please continue.

Law school is expensive, never said it wasn't. My first wife (died in her 20's) was an attorney for a short while. Crazy how she made it through without student loan debt, and yet I have 0 understanding of how paying for college works. I got lucky, I only had to pay for my Masters.

You inferred that I implied making more money is directly correlated to being successful. What I actually said was being successful leads to your making more money. See the difference? Pope is being paid $5 million a year for being (what Mitch at the time) considered successful at his previous coaching jobs. Whether or not Pope is worth his current salary is a COMPLETELY different conversation. One we actually agree on. He is not performing at a $5 million a year rate in "our" opinion, but he is performing at an acceptable level for UK Athletics and they are the one signing his checks, not us.

"Theft" seems to be the trigger word here. Pope isn't stealing from anyone. You would have a much stronger case saying the UK Athletic department is misappropriating funds to pay Pope. Legally, which is what you are failing to discuss, theft is the Offender (in this case, Mark Pope as you are arguing) taking physical possession or exerting unauthorized control over someone else's property. He is both authorized (contract) and allowed to take that money as payment regardless of his performance. Theft also requires "without consent". His contract again, shows consent. There is also a clause for intent to deprive the owner, that again, the contract nullifies. Continuing to argue "theft" by Pope is a fool's errand, but whatever. You've dug that hole deep enough already. Now were you to simply say Pope's performance so far is not worth the money he has been paid (and not called it theft), we'd be in agreement. UK Athletics would disagree because they gave him an extension for Year 1. There are also no signs that say Pope will perform at a $5 million level this year to mine or yours expectations, but he will get paid that regardless.

You deflected the fault of your grammatical error off of yourself. You proceeded to attempt to lob a new fault at me for pointing it out. Two separate instances. I figured a lawyer would know the difference between "deflection" and "diversion" during discovery.

And yes I do have a lot of time. I sold my company at 43 and retired and retained a spot on the board. This board kills time when I'm not traveling or playing golf.

Saying I have an online law degree from a school that doesn't even have a law school just shows ignorance on your part. Just a poorly executed joke.

Lol, sure "she" did. 🤣

You did imply that. Backtracking now doesn't change it.

What did he do to deserve it?

He is taking something he hasn't earned or deserves. To me, that is theft. If I did it, I would consider it stealing something. Where did I say he would ever legally be in trouble for it?

I deflected it by admitting to it? I correctly pointed out that it was a weak argument you wouldn't resort to if you had something substantive. You didn't. That's not deflecting. That's being honest.

Lol, driving for Uber is considered selling a company and retired now? Nice!

Is your point to not complain about mediocrity because Mark Pope makes more money? Defend Pope all you want it's your right as a paying member of the board but im having trouble understanding what you are so upset about
He is upset with me because I said something one day that was true and upset him and his friends. So now he chases me around the board, takind weird positions, trying to get back at me over it. It's cute.

Still unable to shake off the wound from calling out your BS law degree. Please continue.

My wife died in car accident just shy of her 29th birthday. She had a scholarship and grants for undergrad and between her own savings, part time job during undergrad and her law firm paying a portion of her grad school as part of her internship, she didn't have to take out any student loans. College wasn't really that expensive 25 years ago.

I didn't imply, you inferred. Stupidity on your part is not my fault.

I never said he deserved. Mitch and the Athletic Department did. Care to move the goalposts any further?

Theft is a legal term, you made an accusation. It was refuted. You still haven't been able to defend it because you can't.

Negative, you deflected the blame for your poor grammar onto me for pointing it out. Typical victim mentality.

Uber is an interesting choice. Is that supposed to offend me? Tell you what, in complete good faith. Pick a golf course in Kentucky, my treat, we can meet up and have friendly banter about our disagreements on here. Probably find out that you aren't that bad of a person and have a decent time. Then when it is over and we go our separate ways, I'll write you a check for your remaining student loan debt with my "Uber" earnings. Or if you think that would be theft, I'll write the check to the charity of your choice.

What wound? You obviously want me to be, but the fact I can so easily prove the existence of those licenses negates that. You're going to have to come harder, boss.

Lmao, sure "she" did! Let me guess, you were the only person who could see her?!?! Lol

Where did I infer? Please show this! Otherwise, it was implied by you!

You did though. "I stated Pope's coaching career is definitively going better than your law career due to salary." If his career is going so good, tell us how? Or are you now agreeing with my original assessment that his career isn't going well he is just getting paid well? You can't have it both ways, boss.

Theft isn't strictly a legal term, boss.

It literally can be a metaphor. Lol, at least I helped you learn something. You're welcome, BTW!

Where did I blame you for me misspelling a word? How would you be at fault? I think you may want to go back and read that again and try comprehending. I said you had to resort to using that because your arguments lack logic and substance. It was a weak attempt at trying to score a win. It just failed.

Interesting because it was accurate?

The Stokes recruitment was an embarrassment. Nobody, and I mean nobody, thought he was going to Kentucky except Pope and his staff. The Williams "Let's goooooooo" tweet/violation on Stokes announcement post was so sad it was laughable. Everyone can say "oh Dark Pope was moving in the background the whole time" but right now we have to face the fact that at the moment we can't even pay guys to play here.

Lol, I am just making fun of your make believe life and former "wife".

Sure, but why do I need to "get around them"? Do the asterisks bother you? Does it take you too long to figure out what was meant?

Because you aren't worth the effort. Some things you do not make fun of. Best of luck to you sir. May karma present to you everything you deserve.

I should be in the Cinci area in two or three weeks on my way to Vermont depending on when I decide to head up. Could swing by then. I don't do pickle ball or tennis, but maybe basketball is a possibility. Or something less intense like chess in the park, grabbing a beer, or heck even fishing for that matter. But I amend my initial offer. I bring proof of my wife, and you cut me a check instead of me cutting you one, to the charity of my choice.

Thanks for playing! Your consolation prizes can be collected upon signing out!

It's always crazy how people have all this time and commitment until they can't answer things. Suddenly it just isn't worth the effort.

And watching people make up false histories, including making up deceased people, is always worth making fun of.

Karma has been pretty good to me so far. Maybe that ***** just likes and rewards honesty.


Edit: I don't do the old men "sports". I like actually breaking a sweat.

Are you bringing the corpse? Cause I don't think I would just take you word a photo you've admitted to be able to create on the internet is going to suffice.

What wound? You obviously want me to be, but the fact I can so easily prove the existence of those licenses negates that. You're going to have to come harder, boss.

Lmao, sure "she" did! Let me guess, you were the only person who could see her?!?! Lol

Where did I infer? Please show this! Otherwise, it was implied by you!

You did though. "I stated Pope's coaching career is definitively going better than your law career due to salary." If his career is going so good, tell us how? Or are you now agreeing with my original assessment that his career isn't going well he is just getting paid well? You can't have it both ways, boss.

Theft isn't strictly a legal term, boss.

It literally can be a metaphor. Lol, at least I helped you learn something. You're welcome, BTW!

Where did I blame you for me misspelling a word? How would you be at fault? I think you may want to go back and read that again and try comprehending. I said you had to resort to using that because your arguments lack logic and substance. It was a weak attempt at trying to score a win. It just failed.

Interesting because it was accurate?

I don't play golf. But I am will happily meet you on any tennis court, pickleball court or basketball court in the Cincinnati area. 502 353 0330 is my number. Feel free to hit me up anytime!
The wound that you obviously feel for me calling out your BS law degree. You continue to try and defend it, but can't. Claim to have proved it, but I can create the exact same cards with google and photoshop. Not worth my time doing so, but I can. Those weren't even photos of an actual printed out card. (yes I'm aware you receive them digitally and print them from there).

Do you not know the difference in inference and implying? This really isn't that hard for someone college educated.

Pope's career is definitively going better than yours currently. Would you care to try and state your case as how you are somehow running laps around him and performing better? I missed the part where your college was paid for, you played in the NBA, and are currently making millions coaching. I'm sure being a junior associate or a paralegal is killing the game.

Theft is a legal term boss. I didn't say "strictly a legal term". Though I do find it hilarious you had to use AI to help you, and that you again spelled stuff wrong in doing so. Crazy how when referencing a metaphor "theft" isn't the word used, "stole/stolen" is. Hmmm. Your grammar continues to be on point for someone college educated. Glad to see the future of our youth is in great hands, especially our legal system, where incorrect spelling, improper use of terms, and AI is required to function in a normal conversation. You also used the word literally out of context. That word doesn't mean what you think it does and doesn't actually belong there. But you, of course, knew that.

The Uber comment was interesting because it infers you either, worked as an Uber driver yourself at some point, or know an Uber driver you look poorly upon for driving for that service. It says more about you than it does me. I can't take all the credit or even most of it for my company. My Dad built it from the ground up and when he got sick later in life I quit my own career to take over the business from him, COVID boom happened and we became very valuable and after my father passed away, I saw the opportunity to get out since it wasn't my passion. I won't crap on people having to drive for Uber to supplement their income though. I don't personally know any, as Uber isn't exactly super popular where I've decided to call home. But I have respect for people trying to better themselves and pay the bills. To each their own.

Don't think just because you aren't worth the effort that I'm just going to take my ball and go home. I will respond when I feel like poking the circus monkey and watch him dance. Or maybe I won't and he'll think I left him alone and he somehow won. But either way, he's still in a cage for our entertainment at the end of the day.

Wounded? How so?

So create them for us!

I do. Do you?

How so? Didn't you say he was on the hot seat? Umm.. wouldn't that imply it isn't going well. Otherwise, why the hot seat?

Lol, how do things that happened for him years ago mean his current role is going well?

But it wasn't. You seem to have missed that. I have never said he would get in legal trouble. I simply used a metaphor you didn't understand or were being asinine about.

The internet disagrees with you on that. But I'm sure you're right. Lmao. I am sure you are a top authority on grammar and linguistics. Hahaha.

Why would that imply I know much about Uber and why are you melting down over being called an Uber driver? Seems very odd thing to be triggered by. Unless...you know...

Ohhh, now you have a family business? Lulz. And then you just sold it after ole pops croaked? Hahahaha

Where did I crap on people who drive for them. I simply stated s belief that was your job. By how you have responded to that, it does seem to correlate. Do you feel bad about that or something? Why did you correlate uber drivers with failure or negative?

But you did essentially take your ball and go home. You stopped answering when posed questions that were in opposition to your argument and would clearly work against it if you answered them. It suddenly became not worth it to you. Very weird timing.

When you refer to monkey in a cage, we talking about pops or the made up dead wife? Lmao.

Still unable to shake off the wound from calling out your BS law degree. Please continue.

My wife died in car accident just shy of her 29th birthday. She had a scholarship and grants for undergrad and between her own savings, part time job during undergrad and her law firm paying a portion of her grad school as part of her internship, she didn't have to take out any student loans. College wasn't really that expensive 25 years ago.

I didn't imply, you inferred. Stupidity on your part is not my fault.

I never said he deserved. Mitch and the Athletic Department did. Care to move the goalposts any further?

Theft is a legal term, you made an accusation. It was refuted. You still haven't been able to defend it because you can't.

Negative, you deflected the blame for your poor grammar onto me for pointing it out. Typical victim mentality.

Uber is an interesting choice. Is that supposed to offend me? Tell you what, in complete good faith. Pick a golf course in Kentucky, my treat, we can meet up and have friendly banter about our disagreements on here. Probably find out that you aren't that bad of a person and have a decent time. Then when it is over and we go our separate ways, I'll write you a check for your remaining student loan debt with my "Uber" earnings. Or if you think that would be theft, I'll write the check to the charity of your choice.
I’ll play golf if you want- we both pay our own green fees though.

I called out his BS degree too. Has to ignore the fool. He’s obviously not an attorney. He told me he was a prosecutor but wouldn’t tell me where. Hmmm. Dude is an absolute joke.

You have laid things out very well. I would add that he flew all the way to Israel, on April 29, 2026, to scout and meet with 6-foot-8 professional center Márcio Santos.

I don't know why he struggles to put together a top 5 roster. He is intellegent and well spoken, but for some reason he can't connect with top tier tallent. He put together a decent roster for this season, but this is not a final 4 roster. If he could recruit at an elite level, he wouldn't have been in a position to need Mitchel to be eligable to transfer to UK. I hope he kills it this year, but his history doesn't give me a lot of faith.
I am not too high on Pope's intelligence or his speaking ability. If I was an opposing coach recruiting the same player I would simply show the video of Pope stripping down to his old uniform and doing a cheer, complete with all the cheerleading movements. Nuff said.

Nah, boss. The took minimal effort.

I'll still give you at least 4 stars though!
"The took minimal effort." - Did you have a stroke trying to type that?

Just take the L kiddo. Pope is more successful than you. Pope makes more money than you. All of this other crap you've devolved into hasn't changed that fact.

Yea, a stroke that left Ys off. Very specific type! Lmao.

What L, boss?

You've in this very thread inferred Pope was on the hot seat, in a make it or break it season. Even stating he has underperformed to this point. So how is that successful? I don't know many people who would consider having their job in jeopardy as successful.

Did I ever say he didn't? Hell, Jeffrey Epstein made more money than me and Pope. How's that "success" and money working out for him?

It's done a pretty good job of showing money doesn't equal success.

This really isn't that hard. Go look at the reactions my post got compared to yours. That should tell you who won. The rest has just been pure entertainment for me.

Getting a lot of rides this morning?
