I hope people realize that being lame is a major problem when you are trying to get young people to respect you. You don’t have to be cool. But you can’t be lame.

For the older folks. Lame may seem like an immature word. I guess it kind of is. But Mark Pope is the lamest of lame. Great person? Idk I’ve never met him. Lame coach hell yes. You can’t recruit top talent being lame it just don’t happen. Dorky and lame is ok if you are just raising kids and providing for your family. You can’t be lame and head coach at UK. Billy G wasn’t lame. Just weak and lame. Soft and lame. LAME.
Help me out with that one. I'm old. What do you mean by lame? I was in band in high school, so even though we had cool people in band, most everyone not in band thought we were lame.

Barnhart has to be on very thin ice. He’s sitting there responsible for the huge buyout for Stoops and UK has not been to a Final Four since 2015.😐
I'd send Mitch a pink slip first class, with a note saying "GOD WORKS IN MYSTERIOUS WAYS"

Lame is good for grown folks. Lame is normal for fans. We are supposed to be lame.

When I say it I am using it how the younger generation uses it. We want Tyran Stokes? We want Caleb Holt? We want any top recruit ? You’re not gonna get them being lame. If I use lame the way they use it I will get banned. I’m tired of making new accounts. Some people need to start realizing young people aren’t trolling for telling the truth about young people.

Does Kentucky want to win or not? The opposite of lame is the very stuff most on here love but hate to admit it. John Wall knowing he’s the man is the opposite of lame. Walking on the court and being respected isn’t lame. Boogie giving a Louisville cardinal elbows isn’t lame. Call me Mississippi state isn’t lame. 1996 squad full of dogs saying tell me who’s in the house tonight isn’t lame. You see Mark Pope wasn’t leading those chants.


Anthony Davis yelling to the crowd this is my **** after winning the national championship isn’t lame. But we don’t like players that cuss or get aggressive or have gang ties do we???? We absolutely love them when they are winning games for the university of Kentucky.


We have a team of lames. To cool to hustle. No swag. No respect. No aggression. Timid demeanor. Orrrrrrr to answer your question in a simple form and please don’t ban me…. The younger generation looks at our team and says lame a ss niccas! Dweeb! Phony! Foogazy! No meat in their taco!



I played band basketball football by the way. I love being a band nerd. Trumpet 🎺💪🏼

I just can’t watch Oweh anyway. Guy is clearly a major issue on this team and just pads numbers against sht teams. There are so many plays he makes that just point to things going on that, well, things as an athlete I never did nor have I seen done.

He quit this program the day Mark brought in Aberdeen anyway.

Never would have thought this last season, but Oweh is in my top 5 most disliked players in UK history.

The only time he hustles is when he has a wide open dunk.

Pope being one of our own is not going to end well. I have already started disliking him. Can’t stand to listen to him talk, hate his stance on analytics, his game prep sucks, he has no fire on the sidelines, constantly gets his *** handed to him in the first half, can’t recruit for **** or build up a player. On top of all the above he is proving to be an absolute piece of dog **** basketball coach.
Dang, how do you really feel? Only kidding. You failed to mention that also has a bad haircut.

Be careful wanting Pope gone, ain"t nobody gonna knock down the door to come here. Pope I am sure was not the first choice. In this NIL era its all a gamble, player may have been good previous but nothing here. They had their reasons for leaving and all was not tied to money at the other stop.

Be careful? I can understand people saying that before Cal was gone. Not so much right now.

It will be hard for any coach to come & please BBN. WE got spoiled & nothing will change the fact that Ky has too many ghosts for current players & coaches to compete with.
Playing at Rupp alone is a huge disadvantage with no student section that gives a true home court edge.

They started the game with a touch money chant. Then did a walk thru. The preseason SEC POY just walks out of bounds carrying the ball while down 25 points and he and the absent coach just shrug it off.

Why would be careful of losing that? It’s good riddance. They both should have been fired in the locker room after the game.

Just finish the season without a coach. We’re doing that anyway.

This tells you he doesn't care about UK as much as he cares about hooking up his buddy and making millions.
There is a brotherhood in college sports. Eddie Gran and Mark Fox are prime examples. Lose and get fired and a guy repays the favor and puts you on the sidelines or the bench. Happens all the time. These guys are not as good as they are made out to be. The hard part is getting in the door. You may have to pack up and travel, but most are just a phone call away from a favor getting them back in the money .
