Pope post on IG

I'm enjoying it immensely sadly but people are going at each other like crazy, in a hilarious way in this thread and two others? Did I miss something

Who gaf if we had to out pay other programs for good players?! That’s the name of the game now. At least as it’s currently constructed. Wtf else would you recommend UK do in order to build a good roster?! Some of y’all are absolutely insufferable.

That’s the name of the game. We pay up or we become irreverent. I just hope we come up with some kind of competitive payroll like the pros now. It’s kinda ridiculous how it’s set up. Along with no unlimited transfers.

I just wish Kentucky would over pay for two or three stars instead of one

We'll have to see what happens but I suspect we will still finish outside the top 4 in the sec and play Thursday.

Id love to be wrong and see Pope kill it and turn everything around.

I would say there is a 50:50 chance you are wrong. The SEC is loaded but this UK team could still be in the top 4. We’re gonna see.

I believe everyone agrees that Pope will not only have talent, but talent that fits his system. He is getting a fair shot to succeed. If this team has a repeat of chemistry issues and/or doesn't perform then he deserves to be fired. If he takes a talented team to a Great 8 or Final 4 then he deserves to keep his job and have fan support. If not, he deserves the consequences.

What was the reason for the whole 4 day delay?

Goodman said in a podcast that he thought he wanted to spend time with his family cuz he wouldn't be seeing them for quite a while and he wanted to set it aside and be with his family

Good for him, if true. Pushing the pause button to spend time with family makes sense. He definitely took himself out of the spotlight by not making any comment during the process. I think UK is truly getting a pro, in every sense.
