Thanks a lot Coach Pope, I blame you. It’s been a while since we had a Heart-pounding ending to a game. Basketball is fun again!!
Apathy has completely disappeared

I think it was a true blessing in disguise that Drew and Hurley snubbed UK.
Pope was the right guy all along.

He looked calm but that big heart had to be racing
I felt excitement and confidence late in the game, where under late stage Cal I was waiting for us to fall apart and lose the game in the last 3 minutes.
100% agree. Hurley has resulted to crying now when he doesn't get his way after all of that winning the last two years. Drew knew he would be fit for the demands of the job here. Pope is hungry, energetic and gets it. He is one of us.
I thought that as well after the tantrums in Hawaii. What a psycho. It's nice to have a coach who acts like a human being for a change.
This is what good coaching looks like folks
Adjustments, zone, timeouts at important times, a will to actually win.

Pros: I'm back to being absolutely stoked when we win.
Cons: I'm back to being heartbroken with a loss.
Hadn't felt much of anything for 5 years or so.

It was almost easier when I had stopped caring, lol. But I had a much better feeling in the last 5 minutes of this one than had in the previous few years.
Dude we wouldn’t have been in that position in the last three minutes lol
At that point we’d have been going through the motions cause they’d have been up 25+
Definitely didn’t think Drew was right fit for anything UK. Didn’t really want another foot stomping, screaming coach like Hurley. Honestly was disappointed that we had to hire Pope because nobody really wanted the job. Got a good nights sleep and actually woke up with renewed excitement and expectations. I still feel guilty, but really thankful he is our coach.
