Boosters need to keep money. Let pope trot out Trent Noah and Reece potter. Let's lose 18 games and fire this guy. Get a real coach in here. I think Jai Lucas would come here.
Should Pope Be Fired For Recruiting Inability ?

I bought the bill of goods when they had the Rupp press conference. Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice shame on me. Not buying any more.
Those of you that have been around a while know I did not support Tubby Smith, but I never called for him to be fired.
Today, for the first time ever, I am calling for Mark Pope to be fired.
I'm not naive and realize my call means nothing, but I want to go on record.
Mark Pope needs to go. Immediately.

Who is the one person that voted no on this so far? What are you seeing that the rest of us can’t?
Never should've been hired, should have been fired at the end of a disappointing season with multiple embarrassing blow out loses where he drove his "Ferrari" right off a cliff and had no recruits locked in. So yeah, this is just another reason.
Is it really a whiff? It would be a whiff if Golden, Hurley, Izzo, Cal missed on him. For Pope, this is normal and expected. We need to venture into the mid majors as a beginning point.
It's Time BBN to stand up and demand a Coaching Change. We will get destroyed next year if we continue down this road heck we might not have enough players to field a team, HOW EMBARRASING. $UCK YOU MITCH BARNHART for destroying our Basketball Program!!!
If Potter and Noah are playing major minutes....we are losing more than 18 games.
If we hired Donovan next week do we think he’d assemble a better team?
He offered 11 freshman and whiffed on all 11, we shouldn’t be surprised he is missing every portal player. Pope needs to quit, negotiations for a buy out should start today at 3pm.
That is sadly too late. I feel like if we fired him today and had Mo recruit while we looked for a real coach we could sign more guys.
We are looking at like a 8-9 win team right now if that.
Marc Hill needs to be fired along with Mitch.
You don't fire someone because they can't recruit elite players. You fire them for poor performance that may or may not have something to do with poor recruiting. Is this a serious thread?
Screw that Fox sucks too. Let Mo have a shot. We already have seen Fox take a team to 4 wins.
Imagine if BBN/UK was a democracy. We would have impeached him by now and have a new coach already lol
No, but he will have a better record with what we have now, than Pope even if Pope somehow signs Stokes.
He got Butler, Brea, Amari, etc here in like 10 days. What's changed?

As a coach, that is part of your job. If you can not recruit then that means you can not perform your job. So, that is peformance based. YES, fire him yesterday.
Plus, his poor preparation in so many games should have gotten him fired.
Hes a better coach, would get more out of lesser team than Pope
What has made you believe we will not have a poor performance next year? If you can't recruit, you can't compete. Especially, if you can't coach. Is this a serious comment?
Is there anything he is doing that would make him feel secure in his future? He isn’t just horrible at recruiting.
He should have never even been in the discussion for our next coach. Never.

You can have lesser players and "compete". Cal found that out, so did Pope. Not being able to coach would be the reason he got fired, not "you didn't bring in muh recruiting class I wanted".What has made you believe we will not have a poor performance next year? If you can't recruit, you can't compete. Especially, if you can't coach. Is this a serious comment?
