    Never knew JB Hall passed on Larry Bird because

    Pretty much. Plus, he was getting Givens, Lee, Robey, Phillips. This is a good book and even better story. I thought I knew a lot about Larry Bird, but there was more in this book.

    PGA Championship…

    I’m thinking Rahm, he has something to prove.

    Moreno: How much in NIL vs. NBA late first round $$$?

    You might not like his approach, but Pope is putting in the work imo.

    Let's see where we stand

    I feel like Pope is attempting to have a collection of players where their agendas don't overwhelm the team goals. I feel like his first team was more like that than last year's team.

    Let's see where we stand

    I feel like Hawthorne is going to have a good season. Perhaps Noah as well.

    Vrabel still working. Dirty Diana not so much

    While this is a personal matter, if I’m the Patriots, it’s a huge distraction fueled by social media imo. Becoming a perception and credibility issue as well. Vrabel will be on a short leash going forward. As a titans fan, starting to wonder if this played a part in his firing.

    Indiana won a NC in football, so, yeah.

    Dan Issel on Kentucky Struggles

    And this is the environment that MP is now trying to operate in. Others are obviously doing it better than he is, but it's a totally different animal now. A GM is a very legitimate thing imo.

    My letter to Mark Pope (please read Coach)

    Tongue in cheek. Just saying, this 'letter' accomplishes nothing.

    My letter to Mark Pope (please read Coach)

    MP will either succeed or he won't as UK coach, I'll be cheering for this year's team and its coach as I have for 50+ years. As for OP's 'letter' to MP, I think I'd prefer OP be banned. The 'letter' accomplishes nothing positive.

    Pope on X - let’s talk. Round 3 Q & A KAM starting?

    I give credit to Pope for doing this. I agree, it may not be the greatest idea, but he has courage, is doing his best and he craves for the fan base to support him. I don't know how things will end up for MP at UK, but I still don't get piling on at all.

    Moreno Trending First Round

    Moreno could really benefit from another year of college imo.

    Having Mark Pope as Coach at UK is, in effect, similar to the program being on Probation....

    While still subpar by UK's standards, I would argue that MP's first 2 seasons were better than Cal's last 2 seasons at UK. I don't know what will happen with MP in season 3, but at this point, things are not quite as bad as some are saying. Jury still out for me, I'm going to support the...

    Pope badgers should be ashamed of themselves

    I just don't get the piling on. He may not succeed here, but it gives me no pleasure, and I certainly don't root for it. I also don't think you can call him a failure at this point. Below standards? Yes, but we have made the tournament twice.

    Anthony Epps

    This is true. Things did not really click for that team until Epps took over the PG job and Delk was moved to 2G. Epps was exactly what that team needed.
