Yeah, that's false.
Pope badgers should be ashamed of themselves

Hey man na I actually I won't. If you're that out of the loop there's no need for me to go back and forth with you. UK is all good brother. I hope there are no changes anytime soon.
Weird, I don't understand hating someone because they're cheesy, or goofy.
Dude that post is unbelievable. It’s always the pope pumpers saying the meanest sh*t and taking shots at people
I said dislike, not hate.
He’s weird, annoying and offputting, lol, if you don’t see that, idk what to tell you
Yup and unless we're talking about UConn, or Michigan fans, there is no other fanbase that should be laughing at anything UK is doing right now.
If Louisville fans are laughing, who cares, we have been kicking their as$es, we own them. Same with UT fans.
Most of the other fanbases out there aren't even invested enough to care.
But in addition, if you're that bothered by what other fans say in social media, you're the problem.
Again, they make fun of UK even when we're winning. That's part of being a UK fan. Opposing fans are going to try to get under your skin, always have, always will.
Unless you mention the injuries to the last t two teams, unless you mention the recruits on the team team he inherited (0), and the restrictions on who to hire by Uk, which. Played into why he took the job your lists mean nothing.1. 0/14 on top 20 recruits.
2. No primary portal recruits in two cycles.
3. 64% career winning percentage.
4. Averaging a 7 1/2 place finish in the SEC in two seasons.
5. Scarce player retention.
6. Historic number of blowout losses.
7. Averaging 16 points per tournament loss while at UK.
8. 26 losses in two years.
If a coach finds that too demanding, he's not the right coach. I can't imagine many coaches turning down say Alabama football because the job is too demanding. If they do, that is the last coach they want to hire. Hint: The "bad fan" narrative isn't the winning strategy you guys seem to think it is.
You're the one making the claims, at least back up what you're saying, or stfu.
If we're going to do that, then I can just say Steph Curry just committed to play for UK next year and hope that you'll believe me.
Lmao.maybe he actually has been finishing on them and that’s why they suddenly ghost us.
I don’t care what people say on here or social media. I just believe that it’s easy to get some people worked up since our program is down at this point. In a perfect world people will act as you describe but that’s not going to happen with any major programs fans.
Ok goober, you and him both can leave town lmao, cause he's straight up ***
Paul’s argued with me over Stoops and Pope. I was proven right with Stoops and we will see soon enough about Pope. I’ve got friends that are like him and a few others here with UK coaches. Some are just loyal to them no matter what. I get it, I just don’t do that myself.
They better stop complaining cause now they are forcing you to complain about that complaining lol
Got to love internet tough guys who constantly whine like small children and have no control over their emotions. Stoops was fired and not once did I ever whine or complain like you spent the entire season doing.
What did I say that is outrageous? Tell me what you disagree with fck boy. You always got a sissy ahh opinion.
We can post indisputable facts and give the links verifying it and you guys refuse to acknowledge it if it doesn't match your hate driven agenda. You can not even concede that schedule difficulty and injuries make a difference. You two regularly claim to know things for certain that are actually just guesses based on extreme bias and then call others arrogant.

0/14 on recruits has something to do with injuries?
Missing on all primary portal players two years in a row had something to do with injuries and restrictions?
A career 63% winning percentage had something to do with injuries and restrictions?
Nah. My post still means something because you know damn well that Pope is responsible for all three of those aspects.
Try again.
These guys need to realize, we're an easy target and we get made fun of by everyone that feels threatened, or anyone that senses a weakness, but even at our lowest point, we still won a game in the tournament, swept Tennessee, won at Arkansas and did it without a true pg and our lottery pick center.
Trying to crush us for recruiting misses, is a weak flex in my opinion, but whatever.
No, it was a pretty good day. Did you read my post with an angry voice acting as the narrator, or something? I mean, yeah, I told the guy to stfu, but I meant it in the nicest way possible.
Try using Mrs. Doubtfire's voice when you read that post again.
I might need a translator for that post.
Are you dense? You know exactly what we're talking about. Post these comments you keep talking about, where supposedly we're a laughing stock.
I would love to see what is so horrible. It’s probably the same crap that is said even when we're winning, but you need to let everyone know that Pope needs to go for so many reasons and one of them is all these strangers on the internet are that are hurting your feels.
I'm not the one belittling others because I'm hiding behind the safety of internet. Secondly, everyone on here who has been on here any amount of time watched you engage in this same schtick over Stoops. You're just a ukaa loyalist and mouthpiece. Let me clue you in on something. An adult has no problem facing reality and calling it for what it is. Children live in make believe land. And if you want to live in the illusion that everything is fine, I don't care. Have at it. But how dare you demand we all live in denial. We are the grown ups in the room.
This is what losing the narrative looks like.We can post indisputable facts and give the links verifying it and you guys refuse to acknowledge it if it doesn't match your hate driven agenda.

You two regularly claim to know things for certain that are actually just guesses based on extreme bias and then call others arrogant.
We couldn't even get the guy from Baylor. Oats put word out before anyone even asked that he wasn't interested. I don't care what other SEC coaches told Goodman.
SEC BASKETBALL JOB RANKINGS
Jeff Goodman anonymously polls basketball coaches from the SEC to determine the best jobs in the conference.www.on3.com
you need to look at this article, I’m not worried about finding another coach.
I hear you guys using this same line of reasoning for all of your bad behavior. You can bash teenage recruits and 50 year old coaches with equal venom. It's on them if they can't take it. The internet would be so much better if everybody's mother got to read what they write. Y'all keep justifying. We'll see how it turns out.
Pope sucks. I don't care if he played here. He sucks, period. He can't recruit, plays no defense, and can't get his team prepared to play out of the gates.
Pope enablers should be ashamed of themselves.
He literally does not do anything well when it comes to coaching college basketball.

F that magic underwear wearing clown! Mark pope is a joke!
Smh. Im about to put you in the same category as Bass and Baller Cal. Lmao never thought I’d group you with those two but you’re there
Not hurting my feelings. Pope needs to be ran out of the state of Kentucky. That seems to hurt people's feelings I guess???
Pope doesn't deserve ****. He's embarrassing Kentucky and getting paid millions. I work 12 hour shifts every night for fkn bare minimum to provide for my family and can't even take my family to a Kentucky basketball game because when I do we go to Nashville and watch Gonzaga fck us up the *** and not even score a point for the first five minutes of a game and then get booed off the court by his own fans.
Lose by 35 points and no effort was ever made then we get his dorky sad expression like oh no BBN I'm I'm not doing a good job but pretty please don't be mean to me.
Y'all can get tf out of here honestly and fck Pope. He's the worst thing that has ever happened to Kentucky basketball. Making five million a year for this ****.
Yeah, I really don't care how you "group" me.
I honestly thought you would laugh at the Mrs. Doubtfire thing, it was meant to be funny, nothing else.
Still waiting on all those damning social media posts where people are laughing at us. It would be nice if you backed up what you're saying.
Nobody is laughing at us man. Kentucky is in good hands. I'm not going back and forth with somebody obviously out of the loop. Said that in the beginning.
You think UK is good to go. I think they are a laughing stock along with most people. The state of the program is " let's give these guys a chance see what they can do"....
We can respectfully disagree. I don't have to prove to you anything because I'm not on here to go back and forth with anybody. I don't care about proving you wrong or right. I care about UK being good and currently there's no hope. But to each is their own. You like the state of the program that's fine just please quit replying to me because you keep saying prove me and no.... As a grown man I'm not going to go skim social media to please you.
I just watched the entire college basketball season. I seen what I seen. I seen BBN itself boo Pope off the court. You want proof of that I got proof of 20,000 fans booing their own coach off the court but we are all good if blueblooded cat don't create a social media account and go track down some proof. Keep living under a rock.
Also I've done this with you before. You never say anything. Why don't you have a conversation. Say how you feel about things instead of " prove me so" like a little kid. Have some substance. Have an actual conversation.
Okay, so you made it up. YOU’RE the one that thinks UK is a laughing stock. That definitely makes more sense.
LOL, I think most would disagree with you. I probably talk too much.
Whaddya want to talk about?
Without reading the whole thread, it’s OK to be upset with the state of the program. It’s OK to point out flaws. It’s OK to want a change.
My beef is the attacks on Pope’s character, the personal insults and juvenile nicknames, but over the last 10 years for some odd reason, that’s what our society has become.
Polite disagreement is a thing of the past and juvenile name calling and petulant nicknames are all the rage.

Nothing with you lol. But since we're here what is your opinion? Do you honestly think UKs image is good currently?
So you're asking for proof. Which then would only still be an opinion. We could not win a single game next year and if you feel like we're not a laughing stock then that's your opinion. I couldn't or wouldn't want proof because there's no proof to an opinion.
Yes it's my opinion. And many others. You're stance is confusing .I'm pretty sure like 95% of BBN is on the same page. Even cowboy got on board. But then we have KYjeff doing this now? Lol
