Kansas gains another game on all time wins
- Thread starter Possum
- Start date
Only a matter of time now. Cats are struggling and Big 12 is no where near as hard as the SEC
Some say they don't care about the all time wins lead but I sure do. Yes Kansas has more season but I don't care. I want to keep that all times lead.
Lets hope we make the tournament or they will make up some ground there too.
Mitch has single handily allowed this to happen with his bad contracts (cal) and his bad hire (pope).
As Kentucky fans, our tradition dictates that we are the standard of basketball. Yet, ones in charge allow it to slip. As a Kentucky fan, we should have the expectation to compete and stay ahead in the all times win race.
You're right. To truly turn this around, he has to go. I'd like to see a purge of the whole department. We do not need to replace Mitch with anyone with ties to him.

If they pass us this year that is the perfect opportunity for one of our media guys to put him on blast as to the state of the program, going backwards and downhill fast.
Recruiting looks as awful as ever, team on the bubble of the tourney….
“Mark, when you said you knew the assignment…is this what you meant? Or do you feel you have failed?”
Ask the fu**ing question please.

We may be able to hold them off if we can make a deep run in the NIT
in other news, water is wet... who cares
you're right, The Big 12 is a better league this year
Huh?
The big 12 currently has 4 teams ranked in the top 8, 5 ranked in the top 13 and 6 ranked in the top 25. It's probably the best conference this year.
Won’t lie, folks. I’m getting very nervous about all-time wins. Extremely important to me…we have gotta have a strong finish this year.
I'm with you. I'm sweating bullets too.
Maybe OP is just trying to distract us from THIS season?
Good work OP.
They would have to go on a heater, and UK would have to poop the bed, but regardless, it’s probably going to be anywhere between +1 - (-1) when the season ends…
Then next season, you know Pope’s 3rd, they’ll be ahead 6-8 games (minimum) with the team that they have brewing, that will include Kentucky native and Nike NIL superstar Stokes!
At a friggin Adidas school, no less!
We only have a 5 game lead, our basketball program isn’t in a good place right now and our AD is from Kansas… just saying.
Dang what happened to y’all’s relationship with Nike- you would think they would be steering at least 1-3 top 25 talent to Kentucky.. I don’t get it- how is Dookie getting all the love?
I agree it's only a matter of time. But the SEC is pretty weak. Especially when compared to the Big12
I'd actually prefer a deep NIT run over losing in the NCAA tournament in the first round.

Personally, I am not even giving the jay quacks any room to *^$%@%*( wiggle, it took them the extra ten freaking YEARS to get to where they can say it in the record books.
Whatever.
I'm ALMOST past apathetic about it already.
just please, lord, let Mitch go and can we please focus on the basketball program.
someone ?

Losing this once was bad enough but losing it twice would be a total annihilation
I care. It’s about standards m and UK is meant to be the gold standard of college bball.
Twice in less than a decade. Barney needs to be dragged by his britches and thrown out of the state. “Don’t ever set foot here again”
Careful, that might convince Mitch or his successor to give him a 4th year.
Kansas has had more consistent success as far as wins per season overall since early 80s. Having Larry brown and then roy Williams and then Bill self helped. Stability.
You can forget about the all time win lead. It has been shrinking the past 10 years and will soon be gone forever. This program ain't the same anymore. It is not about the wins. It is$$$$$ and lots of them. Just ask Trent Noah.
I said this years ago. Kentucky and North Carolina can suffer lower lows. They can also experience greater highs.
Kansas will become the time win leader at some point. Good for them and they founded the game and most of its lineage (Rupp and Smith included) comes from there
I’m at peace with Kansas holding that spot. They are consistently good

Just stop Richie. Pope is actually a better coach than your hero Calipari.
Pope needs to judge talent better, and have a season with no key injuries.
I swear I think you’re a Calipari family member.
No he’s not. Pope is not even is the same stratosphere as Cal.
