Donnie Freeman

I believe we definitely will go after him, not sure of his interest though. Haven’t heard much regarding him, but I agree the perfect fit. For now it’s either Freeman or Goode with a chance of possibly both. Avdalas and Murauskas are still possibilities as well. I think we only get 2 though so doesn’t leave much room for Momcilovic at that point. We’d have to try either way though.
Desean Goode will be our stretch 4 off the bench, IMO. Not to mention Gwath is a real possibility, him or Reibe.
I don't understand why we got Diallo on campus and didnt sign him. Do the damn deal coach!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yup. If he gets even three of those four I start to see some real optimism from myself. And I’ve been hard core in the corner of pope can’t get this done.
He’s a player you make it work for. Play him at SF if you have to. Play two forwards in the starting lineup. His shooting is that good.
Man that would be cool. Then turn it into a poster and sell it to thousands of Billy Joe Wildcats to decorate their living rooms with
I’d rather have Rob but we need one of them. Kinda sucks that they priorities him and couldn’t get a commit on campus. I guess he didn’t want to share the back court.
Phil, come down because it isn't over. Pope would still have to coach the team, develop the players, and win basketball games.
No truer words, though I’m glad that this has been a unifying cause to bring many of the non-believers into the circle of trust.
Nonsense. Winning will change minds. But haven't seen too much of it in 2 seasons. Recruiting still stands at this hour as dismal. But even if he does land some of these targets, he still has to win with them. If we were simply looking for recruiting titles alone, we could have kept the previous coach. I grow so weary of this 'bad fan' apologist nonsense. We aren't bad fans. We simply are observing what Pope is producing here.
I was as disappointed with Pope and last season as anyone but let's not forgot he was pretty good his first year. A bunch of big wins and a season derailed by injury. Gimme a healthy Butler, Carr and Robinson and that first year could have ended in a final 4.
If we have the horses next year I am going to be excited and give him the benefit of the doubt.
