Also, this info from Pilgrim (saying that MM wants to wrap it up today) directly contradicts that dumbass Twitter guy that was shared here saying that he's waiting to sign on the 1st bc "incentives" 🤣🤣🤣
The Twitter guy’s excuse is bs, too, IMO. Sure, there are reasons why it could be beneficial to wait until 6/1 to sign. But, wtf is stopping him from COMMITTING?! Verbal commitments don’t affect anything in that regard. Commit today, sign tomorrow. That’s a weak excuse, IMO.

We gotta be within an hour to hour and a half away from “insiders” proclaiming no decision tonight…perfect opportunity for another thread lol
I totally was thinking of starting an "Announcement coming at 5PM" thread (fully disclosing I have NO inside info and I am just guessing). Then I got distracted, and glad I did, because I would've looked like a ******* idiot. That is to say -- more of an idiot then I already am

In 2 days we went from “we have him, announcement pending” to “no one knows”.

So Pope being Pope, I have to assume we won’t get him until proven otherwise. Gimme a reason
To be honest...I don't feel good about this. I don't have any inside information at all. It just feels like a scenario I've heard before...that maybe his heart is pulling him one way but the money is also very tempting. In cases like that, his family might just tell him to follow his gut because ultimately they just want him to be happy(he'll be fine financially either way).. If the rumors were true about us having the highest NIL offer, then that might not be in our favor in the hypothetical scenario I just mentioned.

Milan is the guy I have really wanted all along, so hopefully we can pull it off. The delayed decision is just making me nervous. If it was just about money, then I think we would have known by now.

I’d pay for the 20M premium service. Can’t be worse than Trilly Donovan. You might need a new nickname for street cred. Maybe “Buzzed Baker”?

Yea so if you want to compare Pope and Cal. Then compare their first two years side by side.

Compare when Cal had Kentucky the hottest program in the country by a mile to Pope having Kentucky a laughing stock.

Pope won't be here 15 years.
Or compare it to Cals 5 when Cal won one NCAA tourney game

jerry removed his crystal ball prediction so appears not to be going well
If Mark Pope loses Momcilovic to Louisville, this will be his last season. He absolutely CANNOT afford to whiff here. If he does, it’s over. Everyone knows it. He will know it. We’d be in a very weird position for next season to essentially be a countdown.

he hasnt made a new prediction. just pulled the one he made. but at the end of the day it doesnt matter....the head coach of kentucky should not have this much difficulty attracting talent.
I agree. He’s gotten some good predictions right but he’s also been wrong a ton. I don’t think anyone knows, but it’s not good. Shouldn’t take this long anyway.
