Making a point. I commented on one poster not on Pope. Have a good weekend and try to get away from this obsession.The post you melted down over was about Pope, though.
What do I need to try harder about?

But a poster commenting on Pope. Which is what you do anytime someone has a criticism.Making a point. I commented on one poster not on Pope. Have a good weekend and try to get away from this obsession.
Couldn't agree moreExtremely fair take I'd bet probably 75% of the board would agree with. Weren't necessarily thrilled with the hire, but he's the coach so we'll try and support him while voicing legit concerns (resume, lack of post season experience, lack of high major experience, poor lifetime winning percentage for the level of job he's undertaking). Years 1 and 2 were injury riddled, over-performed (for him and having to build a roster from scratch late in the portal cycle due to hire date) and a sweet 16 finish got him some grace and small measure of hope for year 2, a decent high school recruiting class for a Coach without much pedigree recruiting in those high level recruit waters (Johnson, Moreno, Lewis). Year 2 was an extreme departure in the opposite direction (decommit from Lewis, only 1 PG on the roster, the JQ gamble that didn't pay off, multiple pieces that did not fit, despite the roster (and expectations) for that team being off the charts early. It gave plenty of fans the reason to question and doubt Pope, but again, probably 75% of the fanbase assumed year 3 was coming and that he hadn't done any egregious enough to justify getting canned yet, though the seat was definitely warming up. The high school recruiting cycle for year 3 was a disaster, the portal had its ups and downs but we did end up with a solid and high ranked (but probably not as elite as it could have been had he hit on a few more first options) portal haul. And that's where most of us are. Cautiously optimistic about this season. Ready to move on if he fails to deliver, ready to give him some more grace if he shows solid improvement.
Nobody on here wants to meet you (except Cowboy) lol.Not much worse than someone that acts differently when most arent watching than they do in person. One guy is phony and its almost assuredly its the one away from this board. I have zero desire to meet him or anybody here so he is what I see here and it is garbage.
Yes to non-issue. It is his shooting hand though.I have read non shooting hand. Seems like this is a non-issue.
It was justified cynicism. but he does it ad nauseum!Here we go again. One person dares to state some.justififed cynicism and that person is personally attacked by the usual pumper brigade suspects. Why make everything personal? Nothing but a CHILDISH attempt to police thoughts on here by a bunch of old Barnhart cronies. Now I'll sit back and read more bleating from the crybullies.![]()
You guys know Pope is married, right?@Cattorney
did you even read the comments? We were defending pope it’s other people that have PDS that they need to see a mental health professional about
Yeah, it was about Pope (ad nauseum negativity) but the comments were about RunninRichie.The post you melted down over was about Pope, though.
What do I need to try harder about?
About his post regarding Pope. That is what set it off. So why?Yeah, it was about Pope (ad nauseum negativity) but the comments were about RunninRichey.
I went back and looked at the same article and realize I have reading comprehension issues. LOL.Yes to non-issue. It is his shooting hand though.
No clue, the pic is from the workout the team did at Kroger Field a couple days agoWhat were they doing?
Pope Derangement Syndrome....an offshoot of....well, I think you know.You guys sure are triggered easy about Pope.....why is that?
@Cattorney who you replied to hates pope.Pope Derangement Syndrome....an offshoot of....well, I think you know.
So you trolling pope over a player breaking their finger is “advocating for UK to be better” pleaseOkay...
If someone is advocating for UK to be better, how is that a UK hater?
Break it down for us!
However, those that want to maintain the status quo and act like everything is swell, when it's actually not going well, those seem like people that actually want UK to be bad or fail. And what better way to do that then continue the current course.
So, who is really the hater?
It was a Jam idiot. Wait for facts not your feelingsGod forbid we have conjecture on a message board after our best player breaks his finger.
Sadly this type of season has become the norm and worse the administration and most fans accept it.A top 15-20 team at best...in year three....never once finishing in the top 4 of the SEC?
Gold Standard?
Are we Hoosiers or Wildcats, ole chap?
Who is trolling pope? Is pointing out someone broke a finger trolling now? LulzSo you trolling pope over a player breaking their finger is “advocating for UK to be better” please
one thing to say pope is kinda in a make or break year and needs to win a lot more games
another to look for anything you can make fun of the team about cause your not a real a UK fan
Who hates Pope?
“Performing well” no that’s not hateWho hates Pope?
In your world, is thinking someone isn't performing well and really shouldn't be in this situation hating on them?
You sound like quite the expert yourselfYou can go suck hobo cocks and **** yourself.
Thats the thing. If we are injury free and have a poor record and get knocked out the first weekend of the big dance, I'll bring the pitchfork after the season ends. But I think if we are healthy, I think we do quite wellAs will I, but I can certainly prognosticate (just like you can) about their likely finish and about the concerns I have. You'll continue to childishly call anyone scared that has similar concerns.
FTR...I didn't want him fired. I think he needed year 3. He didn't deserve year 1 or 2, so I'm not going to say he deserved it. But he didn't do anything in year 1 or 2 to make me think year 3 wasn't a fair ask. If anything, I'd like to see an injury-free year 3 just to see what he's capable of.
All you are doing is imagining that he is better than any data has shown. You are dreaming of reasons he doesn’t suck rather than actually living in the real world and acknowledging he has had a bunch of misses since he’s been here.“Performing well” no that’s not hate
“shouldn’t be in this situation” is hate how and why do you think your a expert on popes career and what his ceiling is, newflash you don’t so all that talk is you dreaming of some reason he sucks
Your posts come across as semi literate and lacking in logic so I’m good with us not agreeing on ****. Now go find you a hobo that cares.You sound like quite the expert yourself![]()
“Does it have to he said just like that? And if so, why?” What does this sentence mean?Who is trolling pope? Is pointing out someone broke a finger trolling now? Lulz
Does it have to he said just like that? And if so, why?
Oh, right, right. The people who actually want UK to be better and will acknowledge reality aren't the real fans. The ones who meltdown under any criticism of the coach and want to maintain the status quo are the real fans. Got it!!!
What does "quite well" look like for you? Honest question.Thats the thing. If we are injury free and have a poor record and get knocked out the first weekend of the big dance, I'll bring the pitchfork after the season ends. But I think if we are healthy, I think we do quite well
