    Another Hawthorne on the roster

    What excuse? You really thought Williams would be our 15th man? Dude is a low 4 star. The shorter Hawthorne will likely be one of the better 15th guys in the country. He probably could be a rotation player/point guard in waiting or even a starter for some low level D1 teams. Our frontcourt...

    Is Jai our guy?

    Who cares? We have no loyalty to offer either. Dude would be out on his *** at the first sign of trouble.

    McBride hiding from Pope and Fox

    You don't think one should simply check out a ranking list, maybe cross reference for 3 point percentage, and call it a day?

    Why Do You Wants Stokes?

    Scores with ease. Good positional passer. Body developed for a freshman. Good handle for his size. Significant narrative boost. Near perfect replacement and upgrade of Oweh. High end talent seems to me.

    Why Do You Wants Stokes?

    We must burn down the village in order to save the village reasoning seldomly turns out well. Close to never. I thinks some folks have been locked into this mentality since 2015 and even more since Covid have fallen in the same rut. Too much front running, no grit, sorta faithless.

    Matt Jones says Stokes could announce today or tomorrow

    They shouldn't be. It is nonsensical and can only be done out of all context as you have illustrated.

    Matt Jones says Stokes could announce today or tomorrow

    Billy Clyde would have hung around longer if he wasn"t an abusive drunkard. Sucking was not the reason he was fired. That should have done it but it was really the players and parents that ended his time.

    How Much of a Penalty is Pope in Recruiting?

    He has to add something extra special to the connection aspect because he obviously cannot match track records in success in getting players to the NBA or winning against the likes of Calipari, Self, Schyer, and the like and probably an overpay is needed to offset the difference even if he...

    If we Fire Pope

    This is probably shaping up to be better than the first year talent wise. 19 losses seems at least hyperbolic and overwrought.

    Kentucky Brand Means Nothing

    No college basketball brand with the possible exception of Duke has significant value with elite or probably even high players. The coach, role, and money is most of the "brand" now. That being the case, the same is probably true of coaches. Once they are Kentucky worthy they no longer need...

    Would Pope stepping down today preserve his overall UK legacy?

    He'd probably need some level of replacement. He was no star but was a key part of the rotation.

    Another Hawthorne on the roster

    I thought they ended walkons, everyone is scholarship and there are 15 slots. The 15th man is probably seldom going to be anyone of note so you can pretend the last two are walk ons.

    Freeman to St Johns

    While it was probably no one's choice the decision was made to hire a coach who had never won a tournament game and who's highest ranked recruit was Collin Chandler. To think there would not be some real bumps along the road and a likely steep learning curve is situationally absurd. Through...

    Why not go after Nickel from Vandy.

    5 in 5 is not a thing at this point. Trump bloviating on something that is outside his scope when he should be focused elsewhere changes nothing
