Donnie feels more like an Alabama guy to me personally

Did not get the same personality vibes listening to his interviews as I did a guy like Zoom/Cox for instance

Especially after he whiffs on him. He better get an answer soon from him because if we start losing in guys we could get with his theoretical commitment that isn’t good.
This will just be the latest excuse for failure this year. I can already see people say "he learned from the Stokes debacle, give him another year to put together HIS roster"

rumors are UK was not able to presently match Alabama's offer due to Stokes portion of the budget still be accounted for. I have no idea, but Pope needs to weigh the benefit of Stokes holding us hostage.
That's not true,They can afford both of their want ,you guys out like there out,he says its even.Stokes is not hamstring is ,alot of false money reports going on

I have to send you a thank you. I mean, I really appreciate your posts.

Scrolling through these pages, it's so difficult to weed out all the worthless jargon and focus on the posts that are entertaing and informative.

But you are a massive benefit to the cause. Why? Because you save me a lot of time.

You may be wondering how YOU are saving ME time. Well, it's pretty simple. When I see you made the post, I know it has zero value, has no new information and isn't worth reading, so I am able to just scroll on by without hesitation.

So thank you for all those worthless posts.

Keep on keepin' on Kickin Wing. You keep on Sellin' those snakes and sparklers.

Go visit a Alabama football message board during football season or now for that matter and see if it doesn’t resemble this place… the great ones expect greatness and don’t settle for anything less
No doubt on that. I have family that are buckeye alumni and their forums are brutal just like the tide. Any top tier program is going to be rough sledding on their boards. Not accepting mediocrity is what makes them strive to be top shelf.

Pope as a coach is a complete failure when it comes to recruiting that's why his time at ky is running out!
Can someone please permaban these asses who do nothing but spew negativity on every single damn thread. Mods do your damn job. They have ruined this board and are only ever to stir up B's and cause dissent among posters. Ban me too if I broke rules...at I would know you are trying to moderate but failing. It's not hard to find the ones that need to go by looking at their post history. DO SOMETHING MODS.

No! They have all the money that they could ever need. We have donated multi millions to this shooot and he’s acting like we’re Boston College or something. Pay these best players and get them to Lexington. Let Dink go to Providence for probably less than a couple hundred grand and he’s going to be an All American. For the bitchessss out here, (if he gets granted eligibility)! Anyway, quit taking five hours of the most important time of your life taking mid level guys to horse tracks and call some dang agents, ask what they want and pay them. Done. Kids are only going to the highest bidder. They actually probably have no say because the more money the agent makes is where they go. This isn’t difficult. Sorry guys I’m a little bit POd but I’m letting it go in 1 2 3 now. 😆. Also these kids don’t care what the damn campus looks like anymore!!!! They go to the gym, practice and back to their 10,000 a month home to do an online course or two and back again. Get us a Championship team and let’s go. Ok now I’m really done.

Not much evidence Pope can land this kid if its down to us and Bama but I really hope I'm wrong. Freeman is a stud at a position of need.
The only way is make a better offer. It’s the only thing that matters to the agent which tells him where to go. Unless he grew up here it’s money only. They don’t care about coaches, campus’s, colors or anything other than the most money. Even 100,000 more maybe less is going to win. You’re right he’s a stud and they need to make a better offer to get him. It’s crazy out here Jimbo.

So my prediction is that he will pick Alabama and we find out that UK offered more money but Freeman chose an open offense and less money. (Looking for coaching that gets him to the NBA) Pope can only buy him a ticket to a NBA game.
If he takes ten dollars less his Agent, handlers, Parents and everyone else will fire his butt. lol. This is business only for the people in charge and they call the shots. I hate everything about all of this professional College sports now. Greed and corruption everywhere. It is what it is though.

If it is true, what are we really supposed to do? Even if we really were the top money basketball school, what is the top money basketball school ever gonna do against the top money football school? NIL thing has gotten so crazy out of hand. Feels like soon it will be economically infeasible to spend money on anything but AI and college basketball players....

I can't take this guy seriously when he posts UK is trying to get Travis Perry back.
Mason Williams enthusiast, family member, maybe, I really hope to be wrong, though I see MW having next to no impact this year, and then like everyone else he will transfer out to some mid level school, to get his, lol, can’t make this **** up!

He’s been every enthusiast in the world. I can’t keep up with the number of players who have been in that profile if it’s the same dude.

All I see is a bunch of idiots making excuses or talking in circles even though they know it's true but can't accept it by the way suck it smart ,_ ss.
Wait, that's ALL you see? Then you’re as blind as a bat.
Most of the posts on this board are "Pope sucks" posts.
It's fine if you want to say that, it's a free country, but damn, does it have to be in every freaking thread?
We were having a good discussion and out of nowhere, you post the same sh*t you post in every thread. There was no need for it. We know how you feel, but do better.

Forget which account you were in, leadbelly? Lol you are such a loser clown
Double derp
You’re confusing bipolar with schizophrenia.
My bad but yeah. But the point remains, last week we couldn't field a team and were going to have to have student try outs. Now we have some saying Moreno and JQ are going to strike fear in the hearts of the rest of the SEC. It's dizzying
