    Your handle is fitting. You're sitting at home drinking Miller Lite on your stained couch in the Mounains surrounded by crack whores and ruing the decisions you made in high school. Oh, I haven't lived in CA for years because it's a progressive pit. By the same token, I don't do well with...

    Fair points.

    Some good news for you - Pope is pursuing 3 average players out of the MEAC. We're going to be a force to be reckoned with this year. Rolling the dice on a concentration of players from almost any mid major conference is a problem. It's just a statistical problem.

    They do if it's your only system and you try to jam everyone into it. See, eg., Cal.

    This is much more simple than y'all are making it out to be. It would be lazy and irresponsible if Pope took 3 guys from the (legacy) Mountain West simply because he coached in that league and that's where he's comfortable fishing. The odds of such a concentration being successful at any...

    Ok, keyboard warrior. I'll stick around, thank you. If you don't like alternative opinions, there's a wonderful place called China that will put you in a camp the first time you express yours. Pound sand.

    That's funny man. I needed a laugh.

    I know that, but they are legacy Mountain West schools; in other words, solidly mid major. I'm good with disagreement; it separates me from the sheeple.

    My wife is from South Africa, and she often invokes that quote - usually because I have fallen down :)

    Same team that was 60th in adjusted defensive efficiency, 68th in adjusted SoS, and flamed out against 11th seed Duquesne in the NCAAs. The idea here is that Pope can bring UK's resources to bear to assemble a team of top-flight talent that can compete more or less right away. Pope said he...

    Well if someone is a complete douche, I'm gonna give it right back.

    That's fair - first things first - fill out a roster. I was just hoping the incoming coach would bring some real dudes with him (Edgecomb any one?) and have enough pull to sway the elite portal names to UK. I had a pit in my stomach when news broke that Pope was going to be named HC - and it...

    And I suspect Pope ain't sure what he needs yet either. This is a tough place to learn on the job.

    1) You're a crazy SOB if you think those guys will be competitive enough to win big in a Power 5 conference. 2) Lol bro, I have 2 ivy degrees, 25 years on the sell side and buy side, and retired at age 44. This is but a silly game for me - retirement is much more boring than I imagined it...

    Say that again - the Mountain West. Not 1, not 2, but 3 of them. The odds of reaching success with that level of concentration from any single mid major conference are staggeringly low. Pope needs to get a little uncomfortable if he wants to be successful here.
