Don't blame Mitchell, he wanted to be at UK.
I think we could have gotten the courts to overule the sec in that particular situation. Just don't feel like UK was willing to go all in on the court stuff.

No way he couldn't of gotten past not entering the portal when his eligibility was out. Even if other players entered like Aberdeen. That was one of the best UK highs I've had with Mark Pope for a whole 24 hours. Was super bummed.

I have mixed feelings on this one. On one hand the SEC just screwed Ky. Mitchell let Ky go to bat for him then he bailed. His logic didn’t make sense, the court ruled he could play and they ruled to open the portal. So explain why the he can play rule would hold up but not the portal reopening. I think there was some backroad crap going on there with Missouri to pull him back.

Posting on a message board and taking sports outcomes super personally to the point it becomes your personality are two different things.
I don’t look at it like that, most are just interacting and others are trolling for fun. Me I’ve been looking at this board for years, never posting until recently. I think most on here are just bored.

It was the intraconference transfer rule that Sankey wouldn’t budge on. That is why he returned to Mizzu.

The issue with Mitchell was they were going to suspend pope for 6 months if Mitchell wore a Kentucky jersey. Had nothing to do with the court ruling in regards to his eligibility. The SEC had its own threats.
