    Scheyer’s last three tournaments…

    I think if you have the following: Consistent good recruiting (i.e., having the horses required to win) Consistent regular season success Tournament success will eventually work itself out. Who knows if Scheyer could be successful at another school, but he's proven that he can do those two...

    Jeff Teague

    No... he is not. He was offering Zollo, Avery and Euton. He was a drunk moron who got lucky for a few years.

    To be fair to Billy G, he had just offered 8th grader William Avery so maybe in comparison Teague didn't look that good. For you mouth breathers who think Billy G is better than Pope, the above was sarcasm.

    Worst hire than Billy G. If true (Posted April 2024)

    @KyLegacyBBN - I think we're arguing with retarded bots such as Farsight Clone.

    I agree yet disagree. Yes, it is easier to build a roster these days. But it's made it easier for ANY SCHOOL with some money to build a good roster. I'd argue we've lost our key advantage (we cared more, had better fans, had better facilities), as other schools can just dangle some cash and...

    No offense, but this a buffoon level take. Pope was hired on April 12. He had no team left. Many players had committed to their schools already. NIL had allowed other schools to lock up key players. He built a brand new team over a few months, finished 12th in the nation, earned a 3 seed...

    Let's tap the breaks on "making a run" in the NCAA tournament. Billy G made it to the Sweet 16 as a 3 seed. The year before that he made it to the round of 32. Pope's best year at BYU was cancelled due to COVID, so perhaps that year his team actually wins a game. But Billy G was a downright...

    Seems like Arkansas is picking up steam with Tyran Stokes

    I get not liking Pope, but thinking Cal was getting it done for us is a whole 'nother level of stupid. He was washed, and we kicked his *** this year with Kyrie Irving 2.0 running point for him.

    Jasper's uncle speaks out

    Uncle Jasper can thank the lawsuits that allowed NIL and the transfer portal for that. Had Jasper just been an unpaid freshman who was going to be here four years, he would have gotten much more support.

    Looking at Billy G's track record, I can't believe anyone in his right mind would have hired him at UK. Frankly, Pope is the same way,

    Mark Progress is so bad

    OP has me convinced they rolled out Rupp Rafters at a mental hospital.

    Let me make it easy for you: if someone donates $2M to the school's basketball program that's $2M more than they had before, and they can use that to get better players. How are you not grasping this concept?

    I don't think you know what "straw man argument" means, because you are making a straw man argument about it being a worse hire. You compared records of going 22-14 in year 2 of Pope to the same for BCG. Well Pope was a 7 seed in the real tournament - and lost his starting PG, a backup wing...

    Some big time revisionist history here. Tubby strongly initiated the PPat recruiting and Billy G was able to close the deal. Liggins was a four-star who mostly came off the bench for Billy G. Daniel Orton averaged 3.4 pts a game for us at UK and played 55 games in the NBA Josh Harrelson...

    Why? Allegedly we paid him $2M and he sat out. So my wish is that he has a successful career and he eventually sends us a check for $2M. That has nothing to do with me or being a politician.
