My opinion has changed, fire him now!!
- Thread starter Blueaz
- Start date
I’m to the point where I’m hope the athletic department goes in the red. Between the MANY absolutely stupid decisions and non decisions Mitch made with the football and basketball programs, and now UK taking millions out of the athletics budget to pay for Mitch’s golden parachute, I just don’t care if it all goes down in flames. Hope the donors stop giving their money to UK also. Burn it to the ground, fire every single person who have had their hands in major decision making the last 8 years and start from scratch.
Ummmm Jodie Meeks might have something to say about that. Id take Meeks 10 out of 10 times over Oweh.
They bring Pope back, I’m not watching the team next season. I’ll take a break for awhile on here next season too. Im not dealing with the bad coaching and then getting on this board and reading nitros trolling bs
You're only hope is Pope resigning. No school is going to pay a buyout like that for a basketball coach. Football they would, we just saw it. And I don't think I see any fans here saying Pope is a great coach. Theyve just come to terms he will be here next year and choose not to ***** and moan about it .
That’s fair. That’s how I feel. No way in hell he should be the coach next year. But he will be. I know that. That’s just the sad reality.
That was my thing to begin with. We could’ve hired Pope at any time. He would’ve accepted the job in September with zero players.
Why not hear a few more nos before going with the safe yes?
You are probably right about that. I could have worded that better. It was based on the evidence I see that the diehard fans are done with him, but the much more casual fans are the ones defending him (not on this forum, but other places)
I think many of these casual fans haven't been around as long as most of us. They just don't understand the history of the program or maybe how things used to be. While we are/are very entitled, decades of success has etched that into our DNA. We expect greatness not mediocrity.
