I’m wondering if it’s a ploy to get Kansas to pay more now. Kinda like they played us against them at first.
Immediately, I'm reminded of some video I saw years ago, where a guy flipped off a cop, and the cop supposedly (not really) thought the guy was motioning for help.

His agent is just using the handshake snub from Self as smoke that the door is cracked so he can get another million from KU. Little does his agent realize that if Stokes would just commit a crime the Jayhawk Brinks tuck would back up at his front door.

Are we looking at another 10 loss season next year so what’s going to change in recruiting this off season or next?? Either it’s pope and Mitch or just Mitch with jmi but both need to set the record straight on things. There’s absolutely no reason to not be on par with duke, KU, Houston & UConn as far as recruiting and staying ranked in the top 10. This is where my frustration is, the coach gets the praise in the good times but also the sour grapes in the bad especially when he’s the final say in the roster.

Stokes has been a UK lock for some time. Of course it’s smoke to Kansas. He’s gonna get his money. UK and Nike will look bad if they don’t get this done.

This is the one Pope overpays for. If we have to give the kid 10 million I think they will. Kentucky kid gonna wear the Kentucky Blue and dominate for us.

Fan base is restless with zero recruiting news while Popes attitude is feet kicked up in the sand on a sunny beach. Stokes is ours and Pope knows it.

You wouldn’t believe how much a handshake snub on national tv could mean for a recruit. Ray Allen went elsewhere because Pitino didn’t pay him any attention on his recruiting visit.

Okay, so nothing of substance
No just some positivity. I’m a UK fan. Like to be positive. But he’s a UK lock.

Are we all forgetting we are UK? The we might come in fifth place attitude is crazy work.

Can we come together to get something going? Can we help out our coach and university? Anybody want to donate to the cause?

Most people complain about how we are falling behind and give a million reasons why. We b itch about everything but I never see anyone with proactive solutions.


We have the biggest fanbase in America.

Someone start the thing for Tyran Stokes and everyone donate 10 bucks. We got a million fans that will donate ten bucks? 5 bucks? A dollar? All the complainers on the internet being dork lames wondering why we can’t get any talent. We aren’t willing to do anything about it?

Na of course not. This is Kentucky and that alone should make the number one prospect come to UK…..

Screw Mitch Barnhart. Screw Popes sh itty recruiting. Screw NIL/JMI.

What did Pope say in his introduction? This is our team. It’s time us fans start acting like it and quit bitchn about things we can’t control. We do have the numbers to make quite a bit happen in a short amount of time.

I bet we could raise 25 million. Just the fans. Normal folks. Bennys. I’m so tired of all the negative bit ching complainers who have no intentions on helping.

And this isn’t directed at you man. Just the hundreds of people who point out the obvious areas we are lacking on a daily.

Create something positive. This fan base can do better. No matter who’s the coach or how good/bad each season is.

Bout time we make the difference. It’s our team right?

Pope actually signing a high level prospect will matter more than any of what you just said

No 💩. The point of the post was to help him do that. I get it if you don’t have the money to donate or feel like you shouldn’t have to. I myself am willing to help the cause and get something started. I don’t get the do nothing approach and bi tch about everything.

“This is Kentucky”

“Why did Stokes commit to Kansas?”

“Because he’s buddies with another recruit.”


If he was going to Kansas 100% he would have committed already. Everyone is defeated. I would take Stokes alone in this class and add some transfers with the returners. We need one great recruit. Not a platoon of NBA all stars.

Stokes is not coming to UK. He may not end up at Kansas, but he will not be coming to UK unless God, the mafia, or illuminati get involved. He hated EVERYTHING about the JMI contract we offered him. The package was nearly $7 million in potential earnings and his camp walked away. But keep sunshine pumping. It's 2026, not 1974. None of these 5* kids care about the name on the front of the jersey.

That’s the problem… potential earnings.
The fanbase can come up with a few mill to add to his original package. Or we could just all be defeated and let our program be in the hands of Mitch. I’ll start the thing today and add 25 bucks. Add a quarter if it’s all you can…

Recruits don’t want to hear potential. They need guaranteed.

Any UK fan would hope I am right I would think. I’m really confused on the bugs dude being offended … I get it if you think the post is dumb…. But how’s it a troll? Must be a Kansas fan.
Some people never try to find a positive in things. You might be wrong but anyone saying you’re wrong has no more inside information than you. It’s like I always ask my kids. “Are you arguing because you know? Or are you arguing just to argue?”

I’m not sitting here trying to say Ik he’s going to UK for a fact. It’s literally trying to be positive.

Never knew me hoping and praying the number one recruit in America would commit to Kentucky would be an argument on the UK board. Never knew that would be a troll or sunshine pumper.

Like I said. I’ll start the thing today and send a link. I’ll put my two cents in literally. And let the other ones put there whiny bit ching keyboard fingers to work.


Some of yall think the biggest fanbase in the nation has no power? We are only capable of bit ching? Saying how bad we suck over and over and over each day? It’s kind of a pu ssy attitude. Can tell the ones coming for me never got any tang and can’t think for themselves

It’s comical how the trolls are sooo easy to spot in these comments.

Before Pope: “You can’t win with one and done players, we need 3-4 year players with maybe one stud.”

I’ve heard that for years. Now, we have exactly what these same posters in these comments said we needed for the past several years and now it’s suddenly back to wanting 5 top 15 players every single year no matter if they fit the system or not. 😂

Cal was right about some of you all being morons and you all got mad because he was speaking the truth. 🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️🤣
