    Pope

    Guys sign then you can recruit and if they don't you can't. If you have a wonderful relationship but don't have the money then you still can't close the deal for the player. If the coach gets along swimmingly with a player but they hate the assistants and will not sign then the recruitment...

    Should our guys live in Wildcat Lodge?

    I was just a regular student and didn't stay in campus beyond Sophomore year. In fact, I left the dorms after first semester of my Sophomore year so I wouldn't blame anyone for wanting some space, quiet, less shenanigans. and more independence. If I couldn't have got into one with a semi...

    BB: 2027 Recruiting

    I begin to suspect you won't be super happy then. Might just make the cut off but I think they want a guard and a couple bigs in addition to Hampton. The portal big man market is tough, you need at least one of quality before trying to fish because more than one is tough to come by and attract...

    Best KY. RECRUITING JOB this year? Brooks - Stein - Pope or other?

    Brooks Stein Pope All putting forth at least a credible effort in but I think Brooks is coming closest to hitting the ceiling of what is possible and is on track to build a powerhouse but Stein sure isn't slacking but I believe when the on the field results come he will do even better than what...

    Spears Jr visit in the near future??

    Very suspect to class variance too. You can have a top class but if it is weak or unbalanced you are still in a lot of trouble. Sometimes the #1 big is Skal or Bradshaw or Green is a leading point guard and you are sort of weak and broken by default despite hitting the plan at or near 100% on...

    UK should be able to afford at least two Ryan Hampton/Caleb Holt-level guys each year.

    It will vary year to year but I think between retention and traditional recruiting is what you want to actually have be the bones and then use the portal to fill the gaps and replace unexpected departures. It just seems like being able to be more targeted instead of always trying to fish most...

    Jamal Crawford Potential Assistant Update 4589

    You sound like someone doomed to mess with the wrong man one day, cavalierly threatening violence when no such is coming your way. Sad.

    BB: 2027 Recruiting

    The offensive number tracks, you essentially need him in poor position but he can dig in more on the defensive side for sure. Dude has the size to fumble and bumble to at into at least 4 or 5 boards for us. I don't really care where he plays because it doesn't matter, he is going to do what he...

    BB: 2027 Recruiting

    My concept is to not lock in at all. Some 3's he can guard some 4's will be a disaster and vice versa. He just draws whatever is the best matchup on the game of the day. I'd guess mostly between the 3 and 4 but sometimes the 2 may be his guy when it essentially the shooting guard version of...

    HAMPTON to UK

    Top 10. High school. Not from Kentucky. That is a few big monkeys off the back at once, we may have a bit of a dam buster.

    Rank Pope's 3rd Year Recruting Class

    You don't actually know what the number is anyways so just pretend one you are more comfortable with, you may even be right.

    Rank Pope's 3rd Year Recruting Class

    They are going to be upset at facing soft defenses with space to function from and open shots of their own? If they are they are fools. Let Momcilovic do his job so that they may do their's more abundantly.
