***** OFFICIAL KU Vs UK Champions Classic Game Thread *****

[kywildcat1021979]

Pope just sucks this team will be lucky to finish in the middle of the SEC.

 

[loublue22_rivals308424]

just resign, should have done it in March if you had any dignity

 

[RunninRichie]

Kepnang is dogshit.

 

[Anon17922829675390261]

Do we have any fans there? That would have been a great time for them to make some noise and it was crickets

 

[OliverSimmonsTwinBrother]

Keeping it under 15 would be a good for a Mark Pope team.

 

[Catastic5]

This isn’t a UK roster.

This would probably be a good Mississippi State team or some other lower-end SEC team.

 

[CaptainDad]

WTF is Pope doing with these lineups......

 

[RoyKent]

Pope is the worst

 

[UKCowboys]

Are Pope suckers really this stupid?

Proof Mods don't exist

 

[TheWyldKat_rivals45219]

If you watch our offense, we pretty much just stand around. Nobody moves. Milan just posts up at three-point line doesn’t move.

 

[Wildcat_in_DC]

Our defense is absolute horse ****

and to think....pope said we have been working on "all defense". and folks here were convinced we were holding back our offense.

 

[MbergCat]

Mark Pope = Mike Norvell

That's pretty disrespectful to Mike Norvell

 

[OldScratchBlues]

One game closer.

 

[ChiefPaducah]

Well it’s easy to see why we were picked middle of the pack in the SEC.

 

[JimboBBN]

Everybody and their mothers knew Stokes would have his best game of the year tonight. Sigh.

 

[BigBluefoot]

It’s called the “Brandon Garrison”!

It's called a beta coach.

 

[Big BlueBeard]

Mark Pope = Mike Norvell

That’s an insult to Norvell.

 

[loublue22_rivals308424]

when KU is passing it around the perimeter, it might sort of look like we're playing defense but we're not, we're just sort of staying in front of them. they can shoot it basically uncontested any time.

 

[BigRedMachineBigBlueNation]

Too much standing around offense

 

[fisherscatfan]

The real question is how many points would Stokes have had he come to UK? 4-6 vs 13 he actually has?

 

[SECualHealing]

Give him NBA money and Pope still couldn't build a quality team

 

[keiths]

.l've seen enough. Playing Potter this early should be a fireable offense in itself

 

[Anon17922829675390261]

We suck. Mitch Barnhart is a terrorist

 

[St.Patterson_54_]

These refs are total ***

 

[kyjeff1]

Milan isn’t helping his own cause, he isn't moving.

 

[Cats4321]

We are basically playing the Washington Generals role so far in this game. Not great.

 

[GoBigBlue1224]

Stokes will be the 2026/2027 slurpfest.

 

[UKCowboys]

Refs huddle, call goes against UK. Surprise

 

[Shaudylo]

Milan a corner boy so far this game

 

[KYAnywhereEverywhere]

What just happened?

 

[BetterThanYou]

Frankenstein moves better than Moreno


I think I’d rather get more sleep than watch the rest of this crap.

 

[RunninRichie]

Don’t blame Moreno for walking. Id quit if I played for Mark Pope too.

 

[JwUKFan11]

Proof Mods don't exist

Don't worry bud he's about to show you why they call him Dan Hurley Jr

 

[TheWyldKat_rivals45219]

They’re gonna force me to watch the curse of Oak Island.

 

[Wildcat_in_DC]

Do we have any fans there? That would have been a great time for them to make some noise and it was crickets

biggest myth is that uk fans travel. that died like 5-6 years ago. go to these types of events and uk has the 3rd largest fanbase at best

 

[Big BlueBeard]

This isn’t a UK roster.

Better get used to it. This is what Pope’s teams are. Won’t change til he’s gone.

 

[Farsight Clone]

We might get routed boys.

For having the most offensive minded savant in Cody Fruger or whatever his name is, he can't run sets for Milan to get open.

Also 1v1 basketball. Thought that was gonna end under Pope?

 

[RationalKentuckyFan]

Is it just me or does Stokes look really great?

 

[SECualHealing]

These refs are total ***

That's a weird way to spell Mark Pope

 

[crxohio]

Terrible!
