    Three blue blood programs and Pope's former program just produced the top four picks.

    He does recruit the best players, but he has misses and kids choose other schools. Recruiting the best doesn’t mean that every single one chooses to come to your school or that they pan out. We’ve seen that having the #1 or #2 class almost every year.

    Everyone wants to be a Wildcat 😺

    That’s the number 2 transfer portal ranking, not overall. The only reason we are that high is because the couple we did sign were big ones.

    Arkansas and others--including SEC teams--joins Bahamas trip; Kentucky passed on option...

    I also feel like these trips do a ton for bonding and growth as a team in addition to getting some experience against decent competition.

    Dickie V weirdly chimes in on our schedule

    You do realize that EVERY school in the NCAA that is of any decent size likely spends the exact same amount right? There is a specific number schools can directly contribute from revenue sharing right? Guess what that number is….$20.5 million. Weird. You sound as clueless as Dukie V.

    Dickie V weirdly chimes in on our schedule

    Every college in the NCAA is allowed to directly contribute more than 21 million to NIL. He acts like we are unique in that… He’s a Dukie weirdo and while I appreciate his contribution to the game, his opinions are worthless.

    Louisville Paying Players ON CREDIT

    Schools can only contribute so much to the players compensation, the rest is tied to earnings from businesses using their NIL for marketing and such. More than likely, what is happening, is the collective pool they use to pay players isn’t fully funded at this point and boosters and other...

    Media and Moreno.

    I’m not saying we did or didn’t. I have yet to see a single credible source and since this information is not public record, I don’t see how anyone gets that information from anyone but UK, the player, or JMI. Also, many of the contracts for NIL are set up so that the earnings are...

    Pope post on IG

    When you sign one out of 11 targets in the off-season, it makes you so gangster that you have to post something like this

    If MM chooses elsewhere… anyone left?

    I don’t think it is lack of planning and more about him just failing. How many recruits (HS and portal) were we truly targeting and recruiting that went elsewhere? I don’t remember a single recruiting win this off season. I think he had a great vision of the team he wanted, he just missed in...

    Milan to UK?

    I think it is less important that he is here for title hopes and more important that Pope shows he can sign someone that is in the top 100 players available without hiring daddy.

    POLL: Did Jayden Q do UK dirty?

    Not the way Cal was. Not even close on this specific matter. Remember Hamidou Diallo? Many people accused Cal of allowing players to commit knowing full well they would never play. Pope has absolutely received criticism, mainly regarding recruiting, his lack of success as a coach, etc. I...

    How to bring Kentucky back to prominence

    Your entire fantasy hinges on signing some dude that likely has zero desire to come coach in the US. Why would he come here? For Mark Pope??? 🤣 We would be better off trying to hire a European star that has retired from the NBA and still lives here. Going Euro to fill a couple roster spots...

    POLL: Did Jayden Q do UK dirty?

    Cal had a couple players do this and everyone was all riled up and blaming him, yet I don’t see Pope getting railed for recruiting a player that just uses us.

    Mark Pope 46-26 63.8% after 2 seasons at UK

    Cal not listed 😂. Wonder why. Doesn’t fit the agenda?

    Pope badgers should be ashamed of themselves

    Cal hung a final 4 banner something like an average of every 3-4 years and he was treated 100x worse than anything I’ve read about Pope. Pope gets more time to set us back ever further because he’s one of us?
