Don’t you have a line to him? Ask him and let me know. Or someone close to him? Am I remembering that right?
Our offer is less than Louisville and SJ but not by a ton. If it’s up to Milan it’s between us and SJ. He knows we are the best fit and Pitino is his best chance to first round next year. Milan is all business, and NBA is his only goal. His life is basketball and what prepares him for the next step, would be a great team leader here if Pope can finally close one.

Funny thing is posters keep saying things like “have you heard Pope talk” or “who would want to play for a nerd” yet none of those people know Pope or literally anything about him or how he interacts with players. They are basing it off post game interviews, press conferences and complete speculation, zero facts involved. It’s wild to me people do that with no basis for it whatsoever.
Alot of the same people loved the pressers and his answers until we started losing some games. It was a breath of fresh air and on and on lol.

Of course he doesn't. Notice how he ignores every single direct question about how he supposedly knows what he knows. Notice hiw none of his claims have ever been right.Nor does he know "Milan." Nor does he know who is 1, 2 or 3 in the "Milan" sweepstakes

I know it’s hard to believe because you never leave your parent’s basement but some of us on here have actual careers and interact with people in real life. Most people don’t make 100s of message board usernames to troll a fan base we don’t even cheer for, once again seek help.

He is better than both of them.

I realize that, but they probably wouldn’t be happy if Momcilovic came there and carved 30 MPG out of their planned playing time.

Whereas we have several unknowns at the 3 and 4, who were expecting another player to be added and were planning to compete for playing

Just an observation. I’m sure it can be worked out at either place.

Momcilovic on Mark Pope and Kentucky

"I think Kentucky would be a good fit,” Momcilovic said. “I obviously went against Pope at BYU his first year (in the Big 12), and I loved how his team played. I think we went 1-1 against them, but they killed us at their place, because they fly the ball up the court and shoot 3s. I really like the way they play. And obviously Kentucky last year, he didn’t have enough shooters around him to really coach, I feel like, the way he wanted. But I think if I were to choose Kentucky, that would be a good fit for me. I feel like I’d be a great player for him and he’d be a good coach for me."

he also said he wasn’t really interested in an extremely high money offer from random schools, instead he wants a good role and a place to show his talents. Kentucky is a great place to show your talents and we can offer him big bucks while giving him a great supporting cast and team almost built for him.
He knows ball

I saw one of your posts on another thread and I wondered how somebody could have so many posts and such a poor reaction score. Now I know.

Don't bother with a reply; I tossed you out of my feed before you saw this message.
Might be possible we’ve finally found the trolls non throw away account! Lord forbid we actually discuss Kentucky basketball and recruiting and not just troll post trash non stop.

You should feel honored lol
They don’t bother me, it’s a total waste of time on the trolls part for spending so much time to make accounts over and over. I just hate it clutters the board with nonsense. I ignore every account they make so I don’t see it unless someone replies to them.

No it's not,It's a battle between Kentucky and Louisville,they do not have a higher offer than us, Louisville has a slight lead,but we can overcome it

Knox would likely re open his recruitment if that were to happen, but I don’t believe Louisville to be a true player for Milan. I have heard they have offered the most money but I don’t believe they are either of his top 2 choices at the moment. We will find out in a week or two.
Knox would play the sg spot

I’m 100% certain Louisville is a distant third and only in the running because of their offer. But to each their own, we will all find out soon enough.

Square peg in a round hole at that point but PK can do what he wants I guess.
Can't believe "PK" hasn't consulted with noted CBB guru....wait for it, Rainman from Rupp Rafters. *And you're not 100% certain about anything.

Are there any admins on this board at all or is every thread just allowed to devote into people trading juvenile insults at one another. What a bore.
