Pope is not to blame for this mess This is what MITCH wanted, Mitch decided years ago he was going to take our (BBN) basketball Program down and here we are. He knew if he hired a former player especially one who helped win a Championship the fans would except Him even with his Record. MITCH BARNHART IS TOTALLY THE BLAME .

Should’ve hired a GM instead of being stubborn, so yes Pope is partially to blame for this mess

What the hell is wrong with you people? You’re talking about coaches that had not been signed to contracts and comparing them to a coach that has been at UK for 2 years and is guaranteed to get a third year. Suck it up and face reality.

You’re just gonna have to suck it up and deal with what’s likely coming for the next 11 months.

Lame duck AD isn’t firing the basketball coach he just hired in his last 2 months on the job. New AD won’t be hired until July at the earliest and won’t fire his basketball coach 2 months before the start of a new season because fans are mad.

We just gotta let it play out. All the kicking and screaming in the world isn’t changing anything.

We eat the lame duck year and start anew or the lame duck coach rises to the occasion and saves his job. Those are our options.
