    Destin Florida

    I was coming home from China years ago and had a layover in Tokyo, walked down to grab some food and there were three people walking toward my in UK gear. I said “Go Big Blue!” And they were stunned. They were all from Lexington on vacation. But right now my wife and I are on our boat cruising...

    Louisville Paying Players ON CREDIT

    I wish they would be, but if they are using signed commitments from boosters, they are not using school monies.

    The boosters are evidently giving Pope one more chance.

    I think the fact that we beat ST. John's/Pitino, beat UT at UT and at home, beat Calipari at Arkansas, beat Indiana, beat a good Vandy team and made it through the first weekend of the tournament was decent enough in year two to not cause a big uproar from the handful of boosters that I know.

    Old timers from RR

    Crap, I've been on here since 2009, but nobody knows me! I guess I am a reader instead of a poster most of the time LOL. I came onto the board in that great mine watching the "DOOR" tracking Calipari to UK. What a great time that was.

    The boosters are evidently giving Pope one more chance.

    Nope, not kidding. Some of these guys are my age (65) and older. Not everyone is a Brett Setzer. Writing checks to support the program without making unreasonable demands is the norm believe it or not. Now, if he completely falls on his face and the season becomes an embarrassment, that's a...

    The boosters are evidently giving Pope one more chance.

    Most all of the major boosters that I know were not throwing in the towel on Pope at any time during this year's team building process. They all had given him a 5 year time frame to rebuild the program from the empty plate that Calipari left us with. The NIL was not as out of control when they...

    Quaintance Pre Draft workout

    He's great at wide open unguarded dunks. Perfect for the NBA.

    I asked Grok AI to build us a championship roster.

    Very cool. I don’t love that roster but I really like the conversation and looking at other AI options.

    Curious about head coach when you became a fan

    Same here. Joe B. We had some great teams.

    How much different would our season had been if Pope's entire roster, Lowe, JQ, CW played all year?

    I think we would have been much, much better but still not championship caliber. Maybe closer to where Alabama or UT was and look what happened to them. If our season had been without the embarrassing losses and we still had the two wins against UT, the ST. John's win, the IU win, Vandy...
