***** OFFICIAL Little Rock vs UK GAME THREAD*****

[Johnny_Jeepers]

I may be the only one but I don’t see any change in MM. no passion, no athleticism, no explosiveness.

The tough thing for him is that he's got a tiny wingspan for a guy his size. But yeah, I don't think he's ever going to be much offensively.

 

[*Fox2Monk*]

I may be the only one but I don’t see any change in MM. no passion, no athleticism, no explosiveness.

Cement shoes is what he reminds me of sometimes. He’s just not explosive. Solid big man, don’t know if he can be the guy though.

 

[NoDef]

It's going to be another year where you just love wins, but just know deep down, we are not talented enough to win a national title .

 

[Catastic5]

We’re playing like amateurs.

 

[Wildcat_in_DC]

we cant inbound the basketball

 

[loublue22_rivals308424]

Another turnover on an inbound

And another.

 

[MbergCat]

This is embarrassing

 

[MidseasonTweak]

Our starting guards are struggling now... league play will be a different animal

 

[TX Wildcat]

It’s like Cal is coaching his famous inbound plays again!

 

[bbnkat02]

diallo is so bad......

Yeah what ever momentum he started in the first half. Woof.

ANOTHER turnover. Jeez Pope.

 

[RoyKent]

It’s embarassing that Williams is the best player. Man, Pope freaking sucks

 

[ComebackCats98]

Nobody can tell me this looks like a good team. I think that 7th place SEC preseason prediction might be accurate unfortunately

 

[The_Answer1313_rivals]

Why does this arena have a bunch of stats but. It turnovers lol.
It has points off turnovers but not turnovers itself. Odd lol.

 

[MbergCat]

Ford is probably the better coach tbh

 

[darkshadesofblue]

I’m not so sure this is even a tournament team right now

 

[RunninRichie]

You guys aren't tired of not having top talent? Every year with Pope is like this.

They keep coping thst these guys are here “for BBN” and “the jersey” to make it feel better.

 

[loublue22_rivals308424]

Batt better be making moves behind the scenes

 

[TFCat11]

I may be the only one but I don’t see any change in MM. no passion, no athleticism, no explosiveness.

I second this, plus it’s Little Rock… Little Rock.

 

[*Fox2Monk*]

Pope looks completely out of it. The joy in his eyes looks gone

He knows he doesn’t have the answers to run the program like he thought imho. The weigh is beating him down. He just didn’t have the credentials for this position. Mitch sucks and put him in a bad spot.

 

[ukman72]

Announcer just said it's unacceptable to turn it over on an OOB play. Maybe he needs to let Pope know that. Use a dang timeout to make an adjustment or rip the team. The way he just sits there lets them know it'soaky and to be expected. Light a fire in them!! He's just so weak and I don't think real players take him seriously. To much love and pats on the back. sometimes you gotts give tough love and a kick in the butt

 

[Catastic5]

You guys aren't tired of not having top talent? Every year with Pope is like this.

It’s not even necessary top talent. It’s knowing what talent to get. Oats and Hurley don’t always have “top talent”, they get a lot of players you wouldn’t think are all that good but they play well with what they have. Pope has no clue how to put a team together.

 

[Wildcat_in_DC]

and this is what 25M gets you with pope at the helm

 

[OldScratchBlues]

This team may get body slammed nightly in the SEC.

 

[RunninRichie]

Little rock is a sleeper final four team….

 

[bbnkat02]

You guys aren't tired of not having top talent? Every year with Pope is like this.

I got tired of get top talent and having it mismanaged too.

Mitch panicked and this si where we are. Batt won’t eff it up.

 

[megablue]

We’re playing like amateurs.

We are playing like we do not practice and are not coached. It looks like recreation ball.

 

[TheBlueMist]

The energy around our basketball team is the antithesis of the energy around our football team.

 

[*Fox2Monk*]

Ball movement 3, what do ya know. Williams again. He is a player.

 

[TFCat11]

I think we will see a lot of Williams going forward

He’s the best guard.

 

[loublue22_rivals308424]

It's funny, alot of offense these days is 3 guard. We have 3 guards on the team.

 

[MidseasonTweak]

Williams is better than Wilkins and Diallo tonight. He actually looks like a guard

 

[Catastic5]

It’s embarassing that Williams is the best player. Man, Pope freaking sucks

God, Williams might actually be our best player…

 

[ukman72]

I do like Williams, but if he's our best PG we are in trouble.

 

[CELTICAT]

Mason Williams may make or break this season.

 

[Wildcat_in_DC]

this is what a team looks like when you had out hugs all practice long

 

[RunninRichie]

Empty Rupp

 

[katwest]

Mason Williams has looked like our best guard tonight so far.

 

[darkshadesofblue]

Williams reminds me of Azubukie in a way

 

[ukman72]

I second this, plus it’s Little Rock… Little Rock.

Yep. Moreno reflects the coach.

 

[bbnkat02]

Williams Moreno mom Good.

everyone else. MEH
