Overachieving teams that reach the Sweet 16 then get blown out isn't going to cut it moving forward
We overachieved for an entire season and set an NCAA record in the best of ways? I don't think even after the final four that anyone will have more top 10 wins than us this season. What are your wanting? Him to recruit players that are Hercules so they never get injured???? None were an injury risk this year.

Of course we all wanted cal gone but it was alarming to hear him talk about the lack of ad support in nil. Same thing from stoops when he almost left.

In this day and age, you simply cannot have an ad thats neutral on this stuff, let alone one that is at least borderline obstructionist.
Sounds like BBN needs to start a huge uproar of Ditch the Mitch.

Random thing about Brooks, he’s by far the most active of our coaches on socials. Usually you can see who we might be reaching out to(that you hear about the night or next day) by seeing who he recently followed on there.

The best part is all the threads like this are just speculation and pessimistic. No one here knows jack about what's going on beyond the reporting of who we've contacted and then where they commit. We don't know how hard they push on any one person, what the meeting with them was like, or what our interest was. Was our interest just exploratory as a backup option or a main option. We can infer a lot of that from context but really don't know. When this upcoming class is whole, then it can be judged, not now.

Pope's recruiting is scaring me. Not ready to give him Tubby label yet but man it's not far off either if we do just as good or worse next year.

We play in the SEC you need athletes to win . If Pope can't get the horses he needs to go.

Were not this nil poor school that just doesn't have the money to compete for good players ...... ********. We might not have as much as some but we're not far off either. Nil reasons are more of an excuse thsn a true cause imo.

I have supported Pope and think he's a great guy an representative of UK. But if he can't get the horses he's gotta go. Tubby "dismonds in the rough" wont get it done SEC is a different world now. He needs to get the players or needs to go back to bei g a fan an let another coach.
