Have we not given up like 50 3s the past 5-6 games. It has been ultimately what has gotten us beat, once again today, Florida has had more open looks than you can count. Pope will never and I mean never have a good defense.

Yeah, true..but he's the only one sulking and looking like he's dying to throw a tantrum every time he bricks a layup or gets his layup stuffed into oblivion.
he is sulking because he cares. vs the other dudes who just go through the motions and go at half speed

JJ would never see the floor if I had anything to do with it. He plays like a middle school jv player most of the time. I don't usually single players out like that, but he is infuriating
If he had gone anywhere else he would be very good right now.

He has received no coaching at all. He’s not been put in position for success.

I’ve been a UK basketball fan since 1978. I was 9 years old and remember well watching with my brothers as Goose poured in 41 points to lead UK to a championship. I was hooked from that day forward. In the 48 years since, there’s been so many terrific monuments and quite a lot of difficult ones. The ‘84 Georgetown loss; Probation; The Laettner shot; The embarrassment of BCG and the Wisconsin loss in ‘15 (that one completely ripped away at my soul).
None of those were at the level of anger, disgust and apathy I now have for UK basketball and Mark Pope. If he truly has ANY love for the university as he professes to, he’ll resign and walk away and give our new AD, whoever that may be, a fresh start. There’s absolutely no possible scenario where he “gets this” figured out and improves as a top level head coach. Please, Mark, just walk away!

Same. In the past there was always hope during the bad times.

Today, Kentucky Basketball feels absolutely devoid of hope. Like there is nobody guarding and protecting the greatest program of all time. The only thing we get is gas-lighting and humiliation.

Dick just teams getting into the tournament with 14/15 losses is embarressing.

Umm we will have 13 losses like what the hell does he think

Unfortunately, If you except they are a middle of the pack SEC team it's not frustrating. They generally beat teams below them and lose to teams above them. Average team this year.
True, they are a middle of the pack team… and that’s unacceptable.

I guess if theres any positive.. this is a preview of what we can potentially expect when Kentucky as a 9 seed plays a 1 seed. And it could have been a lot worse lol.

Damn if that lucky bank didn't go in for them we would have a chance to cut it to 8 at the line right now
