They beat Wisconsin and Michigan without him, right? Missed free throws and turnovers is what hurt
Proud of our coach
- Thread starter Ridinwithpope
- Start date
I firmly believe with a healthy Jaxon Robinson, Kerr, and 100 percent Butler (that’s 3) that team makes at least an elite 8.. maybe final four
Lmfao at this notion that the injuries and horrible officiating during Cal’s tenure never being brought up is flat out HORSESHIT! I used to talk about both subjects all the time. So did many others, so give it a rest. That’s nonsense.
You're telling me he won all those games with that against him? Hmm wonder if Pope will be able to ever do that.
Stating a fact and being rah rah are not the same thing. Nobody claimed it was great. It is just a matter of pointing out that it is better than the extreme negative hyperbole that you push at all times.
You call folks who support our Head Coach losers and turn around and cry for mods when someone comes at you. Fascinating
Good lord.
Kim Jong Un would blush at the amount of pure pumping propaganda that pops up on here.

Good thing we don't have a bad coach
Nerlens Noel, Alex Poythress, Ryan Harrow (Not injured but Mental), Savir Wheeler, Terrence Clarke, Cason Wallace, Jarred Vanderbilt, Jon Hood, TyTy Washington, Jemarl Baker, CJ Frederick. Your “False” is false.
Never said he didn't deal with injuries. The false is that no one ever acknowledges them.
Whats crazy is that you're a 20 or 30 something acting like a 12 year old and @UKortho is much older and acts the same age. I so hope he follows through on his blatant threat to post a poor guy's Facebook profile here again "right before he quits the board "like his buddy Catphight did. Not only do they have the wrong guy, we are talking older men stalking people and getting it wrong. Post it up @UKortho. With any luck, it will stay up long enough this time for somebody to contact that guy. I'd imagine he'd look into suing any gutless creep that does that psycho stuff with his free time.
(He or his buddies will try to get this deleted as fast as possibe and get me banned because he/they like behaving terribly and in some cases illegally? and getting away with it.)

Post it up or just make up some lie and brush off your bad behavior as that’s what you do.
If we get Mitchell then Pope has to put up a top 15 season at worst. Anything other than that with the amount of money spent and he is gone.
But ya props to him for pushing through and putting this squad together.

I loved Pope the player and very much respect Pope the man - as a coach hes a Post Turtle. Doesn't reslly know how he got there ( had no success at all) , doesnt know what to do while hes there , and cant seem to find a way down.

I'm going to wait and see if he actually forces them to put forth consistent defensive effort. Do that and we may have a good year. Unfortunately, I haven't seen Pope do that the last 2 seasons. Someone above spoke about Pope not being a "bad coach." I don't think he is a bad coach. My fear is he seems to be a mid coach who will just do enough to keep his job, but never make Kentucky a serious contender.
Agreed, give credit where credit is due. I wasn’t one who was happy with the hire when Pope came, but I’ll support him as long as we don’t turn into the same program of the last 5 years before his tenure began. I’d much rather be positive (albeit it’s hard to do sometimes) and give my support, hoping for success. Negativity breeds more negativity.
Gen X and baby boomers are gonna have to save the program because millennials and Gen Z have no idea what our standard is. Maybe a larger fraction of the latter millennials. But it’s gonna take some people who understand our expectations and elevate them with a new coach. It’s not happening with Pope.. and I’m gonna be real pope to get lucky and make a finals maybe even win a title but it would be a one time gig. He could get lucky and get to a final for at some point. But I don’t think he’s gonna have enough time in Kentucky to do it. And get into a final or just put him in category with Mike davis. I mean, that’s why we got to unload this guy now. He’s to Kentucky with Mike Davis was Indiana.. bad to mediocre with the potential to get lucky
Name some teams that have put together a top 15 roster for next year without spending big bucks...I'll be anxiously waiting for the list. But it will be the surprise of my life if you come up with such a list.
When you’re top 3 in spending, which Kentucky is, and have no realistic shot at being a title contender, it’s not impressive. Also, I don’t think any team buying titles is “impressive”, but if you’re going to spend that much, you should at least have a realistic chance at competing for a title… Kentucky does not. Give Nate Oats that check book, and Kentucky would be a top5 team every year.
Maybe I’ll be eating crow by April 2027, but you and I both know I won’t be.
Right, just the list I expected. When somebody asks a question you don't have an answer for you could try just not answering instead of replying with ********.
Anyone else notice when there’s even a chance of some good news, a lot of folks crawl out of the woodworks and whine the loudest.
I’m not going to list the 10-15 teams that actually have a shot of winning to appease your delusional ***. Maybe 1 or 2 spent more money than Kentucky, but their spending can at least be rationalized. Kentucky will be the Mets of college basketball this year, just like last year.
I'm not delusional; I'm not even a Pope guy. I'm just calling out somebody making stupid remarks. All the top teams are spending big money now and you know it. There is no list and there is no reason to respond anymore to me because I know a trouble making troll when I see one. I won't have to put up with any more of your duplicitous trolling since I put you on ignore before you read this.
