His 1st squad is still his best. If he didn’t have injuries that was a final 4/championship caliber team. But Pope won’t ever get a Covid year again plus the chance to poach his best player from his previous school.

Great. I expect him to return for a couple games and sit out again.
I'd have love to seen what could've been last year. I don't think it was a title team, but before whatever the hell happened happened we had a chance at a deep run. Injuries didn't help either.
I want to see a Pope Season without major injuries. If we can do that and he's still throwing out God-awful lineups then I'll have my last question answered.
this guy is a shining beacon on here in a sea of dumbass fake fans.
i hope the rest of the board enjoys eating your *** nibblets this year. yum yum.
I’ll take it.
with Kam & Morton back we have a very entertaining team.

4 mil in Nil he is making out like a bandit
This. I like some of these pieces. That's why I want an injury free year. I want Pope to have a fair shake and show me exactly whether he can stay or if he needs to go.
I want to like Pope, he’s a good coach, but he’s gotta do better with recruiting and making UK basketball exciting/enticing for fans. I got more hyped for the Billy G years. Obviously Pope is better than him, but idk he’s just lame and off putting.
I'm sorry, but this is just not a reasonable take. TT was ranked 19th on the basis of Toppin being out until maybe mid-year. With Toppin they would have been ranked higher. And who are you claiming is TT's 2nd best player? Stillwell? Further, there are no Power 5 teams that UK "should have been able to blow out." That's not a realistic understanding of the college game.
We are far from the most talented team I have seen roll through Rupp. But we have some really nice pieces that could mold into a solid, fun team. We need a lot of injury luck, because we are painfully thin, but I like this bunch
This is one reason why I am glad Cal is gone. Because under Cal, the higher ranked player was promised the playing time, and the Williams of the team didn't get the minutes they deserved. Ulis in 2015> Harrison at point. SGA coming off the bench. Anybody over Skal. I could go on.
I dont serve nibblets. You get a big boy plate fuckinn with me son
No, but your mom knows how to count down to pound town anytime me and my dad come rolling through town. spread 'em, baby!
Or he may play the whole season. If it took a second surgery to make it right, I'm good with it
I like his defense- he can be a total PITA on D when he wants to be.
Serioisly, get a life troll / stalker. Nobody cares what you have to say with your many user names. Time to think about another.
You dont have a choice. I ain't t mad at him. Can't help injuries. But still popes biggest excuse from the pumpers is injuries and we have several before the first game.
The best thing the UK coach can do to make UK BBall exciting is to WIN GAMES. It's that simple.
We all loved Cal despite his BS when he was winning. When he wasn't, his schtick got old.
This is the easiest and hardest job in college sports.
boy i'm gunna be squatting over you, bare ***, and dropping a whole load of my devastating nasty f'n huge *** turds right onto your face and open mouth.
and you'll be begging for more.
Are you blaming him for injuries? Im not. Not being able to have a player come off the bench to replace an injured player is on the coach tho.
Ummm ok well enjoy your incest fantasies my man.
Clapping cheeks with pops isnt incest. Thats team work. Now if he was clapping mom's cheeks that's different
Haven’t even factored in Kam Williams.
That’s a dude who can come in and hit some 3s off the bench once he’s healthy.
Same for Noah. Been hearing for 3 years what he can do. He doesn’t have to be a stud or even get a lot of minutes, if he can stroke a few nets in spots/situations…
Ds will have to honor Chilli first, then Moreno…those two getting most of the scouting report and defensive priorities I think will open things up for these other guys.

Noah is a actually going to be needed. What the heck is wrong with him?
the cheeks are spread my friend. do your worst. but look out! you might see a turd or three!
Its the same thing. Why didn't Tech have a player to come in and replace Toppin? I saw more crying for Toppin tonight on RR than I saw all of last season for our injuries
