Even though we have never been in the mix for him what if just take the 6 million that was freed up and throw it at him he is a top three player in the portal
Juke Harris?
- Thread starter TristanGoCats
- Start date
Sounds like he's about to announce for Tenn.
Tennessee should be announced any time now. Pope never seemed to try to get in his recruitment. Baffling, yes. It is what it is.
Pope throwing more money at these players seemingly isn't working either... but too late on this guy IMO.
no he's a elite player, we don't get those anymore
Save the money for the Pope buyout and Donovan contract.
What part of, no one worth a damn wants to play for Pope at any price, do some of you don’t understand?
Im quite sure Pope reached out to Harris and was abruptly told, no thanks, so it didn’t go any further than that.
Once again, for those in the back of the bus, everything that has gone wrong for Pope, is being used by coaches and agents to steer their recruits/ players, as far away from Pope as possible, because unlike some of our Hopium addicts on here, they know Pope is a dead man walking, and putting their brand on display during his final season, could be an avoidable detriment.
Also once again, this is why you don’t waste another season on a dumpster fire that’s been slow burning for a year and a half, in the NIL era!
The UK train is about to run completely off the tracks, if someone, ANYONE, doesn’t step in and intervene, STAT!

Best case scenario is he goes to Michigan. UTjr is really going all out to buy their way out of the "Zero Final Fours" meme.
UT is going to be so loaded next year idk if the get down double digits and come back to pull off a miracle win strategy is gonna work.
Could probably make good money betting against UK all next season. BB future is bleak indeed.
Next year is going to be brutal. Our opponents are loading up while Pope has to make 36 hour trip to try and land a back up center.
This all on Mitch and he is going to walk away with a bag, thanks to Eli. It won't be the 900k no show bag, but Eli is trying to hook him up. Eli said something about Mitches post AD role would be funded by donations. Who in their right mind would donations to that?

Tennessee is so loaded i can’t keep up with all the players they’ve signed. I’m sick of this ****
There is no shortage of corrupt individuals who will trade money for influence. Eli has already showed us how crooked he is.
Wilkerson from Georgia that went to Arkansas is a huge miss. Reports are UK could have signed him first but crapped the bed and he had the aggressiveness of Oweh and proved he could score in the SEC.
You're catching on. This is what I did once SEC play started last season. Only games I lost money on were Arkansas, Vandy #2, and one of the UF games (I bet hard on a -21.5 spread for UF the first time around). The rest of them, you either bet on Pope to play closer than he should against a garbage tier team (e.g. LSU) or you just bet on him to lose to anyone good.
I'm not gonna say I got rich from it, but I came out with (much) more than I put in.
Edit: Wanted to add that, unfortunately, it might not be as easy next year. Last year was a perfect storm of the team being bad in actuality, but the #9 preseason ranking elevated the team's floor for a long time. So you had situations where you'd get +300 or larger odds from betting on a 10 point UK loss to a decent team. Next year, the public won't be stupid enough to keep betting on Pope, and you're going to have situations where a good team will need to win by 30 for you to make any decent money. I'm still gonna make those bets though
