I’ve defended pope several times? All I’ve said is I don’t believe Colin chandler is asking schools for 3.2 million dollars? WTH is your problem?
Chandler to portal "do not contact tag"
- Thread starter Anon200440
- Start date
If only coaching success was based on Team Spirit.
And you said you don't believe the 4 million dollar offer Moreno got.
Why would you? If you believed those things, you would have to admit that maybe Pope did something right. Can't have that though, right?
I haven’t said a word about Moreno. So you’re talking **** to the wrong person. Do you have me confused with someone else or are you lying just to start an argument with me?

I absolutely think Derrick was playing the race card. He did it in his first post as well with his little lines about people in “his community” not rocking with UK and BBN not supporting players if they don’t “fit in.” He’s a race baiting POS.
He may have had 1 foot out the door already

A dude that averaged 6 pts was your most wanted return and is the best 3 and D guy in the country? Do you even watch other teams? Good lord. You just can’t make this stuff up.
Why would the UKAA or someone involved there release information on what they claim Chandler asked for? I mean it was clearly done to trash the kid for leaving. I'm starting to understand why less and less players want to play for this program.
Like 100% on BYU, cats out of the bag
Chandler is not worth spending a bunch of money on.
Help me understand the money situation. Cats will have less to spend this year but ostensibly have offered Stokes a high number. With almost no roster is the plan to pay handsomely for Stokes and another elite talent and then fill in “bargains” around them?
your initial assumption is wrong. the wont have less money to spend. it will be around the same amount. its who it is spent on that is going to change. also....what people are missing. whatever the market rate was last year, its basically doubled this year. if you arent going to spend a minimum of 15M to build out a roster, you will largely have below average players.
tennessee is willing to spend 6M on juke harris. the elite level studs everyone wants. is 5M a pop easy. you want 2, thats 10-12M, now you have 8 other players, likely 2 or 3 starters in some cases.

Insanity. Recruiting has never been easier…or more futile. Gotta have contracts and a salary cap.
Sure let’s just overpay players because they were already on the team
The #1 reason he should have stayed in Utah.
To play at UK you have to be married to the game.
Reed is in his 2nd year in the NBA and is not married.
Collin and his wife must not really be serious about playing in the NBA.
Seems like both want to go back to the Morman bubble that is Utah.
Hopefully this is the last time we have a Morman kid on the roster.
Good luck & thanks for your time.
Now we got a wide open locker room for some new blood.
Moreno
Potter
Kam Williams
Noah. Now go out & get 6 studs.
Hawthorne
Mo Williams

Lol through him? The dude can't get a shot unless someone creates it for him. I swear I don't think many of the people on this board have a clue about what a good player looks like.
Here are his facts...
Good shooter but very streaky. Plays hard at all times. Sneaky good passer
Can't guard one on one defense against high level guards.
Can't handle a basketball when there's a man within 5 ft of him. Passes as soon as he touches it
Can't beat his man off the dribble and get to the basket.
So how is he gonna be good with an offense running through him
Nowhere in my post did I say that. Nice try though.
CC made a business decision, as did UK. I’m good with that. Just seemed the two families shared a strong bond (CC committed to Pope and BYU before his mission and moved that commitment with MP when he returned). Oh well!
Pope is not stupid . Chandler Is a One Třick Pony and not a player worth 3.2 to UK
Don’t believe any of these numbers
Chandler couldn’t get those numbers if he were to be taken in the draft, but you want to “report” that a dude who averaged less than 10 on a sheety UK squad is demanding $3.2 to return? GTFOH…
it’s mid April, start of the unsubstantiated rumor season

Cry me a river. He left because his wife was already homesick and this was the breaking point . Odds are that he had to talk her into coming in the first place. Anyone trashing him can’t be taken serious about anything. Saul Smith’s daddy needs to trashed for giving his son the keys, however.
He isnt worth 3.2 mil. thats not throwing him under the bus.
If it was reported that Pope paid Chandler that much to stay, that same poster would have been calling Pope nuts and claiming Pope has no clue how to manage a roster.
Plenty of legit reasons to be mad at Pope bur this hysteria about a guy like CC leaving is just weird IMO.
I thought mormon women are supposed to submit to their husbands?
Sounds like egalitarian modernity has entered even the sect of Joseph Smith.
That being said, I can't fault Chandler for fleeing a burning house. I wish him the best.

He isnt worth 3 million. So I'll give UK props for not agreeing to that sum. We need top tier talent to win big.
Chandler, Moreno and Kam are NOT top tier talent. So we needed the other 2 starters (now 3) to be the big 3.

Dude, no one likes it when someone who is a good shooter for sure, thinks they are a top 5 portal guy. He is not worth $2 mil let alone $3 mil. It is not about anyone protecting Pope. I'd say that has not been happening...you read much?
These threads fuss and complain about stuff that is rumored. We don’t know what happens behind the scenes. Here there was this huge thread about the dumb arse comment Derrick Johnson made about Pope and Collin. The Pope bashers gobbled up Johnson’s idiocy. I think Mark has good relationships with a lot of his players, including Collin. I suspect this was a business decision that both sides respect and I would assume their friendship remains the same. That is true for most of the player in the portal, I would think. Johnson seems to confuse JJ’s frustrations about play and JJ’s misunderstanding about basketball decisions with relationship.
I give young people more credit than that. They don’t expect all people to be just like them anymore than old people expect young people to conform. This is about basketball and who knows more about basketball. Complain about Pope all you want, he knows worlds more about basketball ball than any of the Johnsons. Players go to coaches to be coached. They are smart enough to get past personality and age differences.

No, I don't have you confused with anybody and you did talk about Moreno (see below). You, of course, don't believe he was offered 4 million dollars and we also know you don't believe the 3.2 million Chandler asked for.
But if we flipped these and UK overpaid for both these players, I bet you would have zero issues believing them.

I motion we promote johnrambo82 to the official NIL offer guidance councelor of the board. He can tell us what we should and shouldn’t believe.
Hopefully this is the last season we have a Morman coach at the helm as well.
you dont believe these numbers but you will believe oweh hooked up with mo d's girlfriend.
