Friend of mine is a unc fan and he said yesterday he thought they’d go after the Iowa st coach (can’t spell his name lol) then the vandy coach would be considered as well.

It’s a good job and plenty of money, very interested to see who they get and how quick it happens.

Damn. Media wont say crap about them firing a coach with a good win record and 1 game away from a championship.
I think UNC*** would have been an elite 8 shoe-in this year with Caleb Wilson...

But if UK fans talk about Pope not being a fit, then we are called unreasonable.

UNC*** going to hire a coach we should have. We got problems at UK folks and it's our leadership.

If you’re watching the roster/recruits:
-Maxi Adams we were a finalist for(shocking to be a finalist and go elsewhere, I know)
-Dylan Mingo is a top 10 recruit I don’t think we ever were involved with
-Veesar will probably be one of the highest paid players in basketball. No position flexibility so probably mutually exclusive with Moreno
-Derek Dixon. Good freshman shooting guard. He’s the guy who hit their shots late against us

Maxi and Dixon make the most sense for us to watch imo

They need to hire someone with an unbelievably beautiful resume who will be relentless while leading them on this journey.

Hey Pope they have a couple freshmen coming in we could use .
How bout fire Pope, hire Davis, and bring them with him? Kidding of course, I wouldn't want Davis on a bet, but it would be a better option either or

And his 5 year record will be way better than Popes. Especially at the top. There’s no chance of Pope pulling recruits like Wilson or a final four lol. It’s insane what Kentucky is allowing happen. The program needs major changes from boosters to administration to fan support. We’ve lost our f’n minds.

Look at Popres record. I dare someone to justify Kentucky hiring him. They never do it and they won’t.

If UNC does this right, it will be one of the first coaching hires among power programs that will prioritize NIL. Thats a good position to be in. Every other coaching hire until now has basically been centered around recruiting, player development, Xs and Os, and if you can be just sleazy enough to land a top player... now? It just has to be a coach that understand player value, NIL funding, etc.

I dont think they will get the tier 1 guys (Dusty, Golden) but I do think they will make a surprisingly good hire here. Hope im wrong.
