Yeah, please no Billy Donovan. That would not go as great as people think. The college basketball world has changes so much in the decade or so since he coached that it would be a struggle just to adjust.

Get a killer. Get Oats. Someone who knows what it takes to win right now.

Sorry but I can't jump on the Jai Lucas ship until he has a few more years under his belt. Go win a conference title or make a deep run in the tourney. Maybe a few times.

Just get a killer.
Oats got a killer, allegedly.

I presume most of the posters on here are much younger than I, so coming on here to read the reactions is just an exercise to see how whiny, ignorant and self-entitled younger people are. Mission accomplished folks!
Seems like you’re the one who is whining, throwing a tantrum, because other people are stating their opinions.

you do realize pelphrey is useless at both, right?
How do we know he’s useless at it? You don’t. You don’t like the hire and that’s fine, but you Have no idea if he’s bad at player development. He was good enough in a non-head coaching roll for Donovan to hire him twice.

he has been a complete failure since 2007.....its 2026. 20 years of track record tells me what he is. no one wanting to hire him tells me what he is.

Sounds like he has an opinion about the childish opinions he is readings. Sounds like you are the one whining, throwing a tantrum, about other people stating their opinions. LOL.

You do know a lot of failed head coaches turn Into really good assistants/coordinators/staff, right? Again, we don’t know if that will be the case here, but he has a good enough record as an assistant to get multiple head coaching jobs. That says more than your biased opinion that he’s a failure simply because you dislike Pope.

But hey, you all keep being miserable and b*tch and moan about anything and everything UK bball. I’ll at least wait until we play a game or two to judge how well things are going.

Sounds like you are whining and throwing a tantrum because I pointed out how whiny and tantrum throwing you are. My other point was ignorant, and you proved that as well. Good job.

Sounds like you’re a 50 year old boomer who is unknowingly a cuck to his wife because she can’t take any more of your incessant whining and complaining and needs a new man.

So you come to Rupp Rafters to blow off steam calling other people ignorant for your own shortcomings of a man and deep down you realize this board doesn’t mean anything but it makes you empowered to talk $h!t like a 12 year old school girl.

That would make sense if I came on here complaining first. Which I didn’t because I replied to a bitching and moaning comment. You’re an idiot whose brain can’t comprehend how things work and just repeated my stance on the subject because you have no fruitful thoughts of your own.

Somebody always gotta guide you by the leash don’t they? Good boy.

There haven't been any 50 year old boomers since 2014.

Your inability to read people is probably part of the reason you are a twenty something whiny nothing. I actually have the guts to post under my real name. Your "name" is an apt descriptor.
