Dude has serious heart issues and stents implanted, and he won’t finish the season. This is like propping up someone to get votes and then have someone else run the country.
This might work out good because Stokes probably won’t play the rest of the season either. Pope should cut ties today and say that our offer has been rescinded.

I'm not in for mid-major players but imo Stokes was never coming here.
He was using us like a rented mule.

I really think we will get some high level players. The Stokes kid didn't rock my world. He's good but there are others in the portal that are good as well.

If I'm wrong about him and he comes to UK, I think he will be a problem for us just based on his primadonna attitude.

Nope never said that. Would be great if pope turned it around, but it’s looking like he’s not going to
I mean, I wouldn't bet my house on it, but nobody really knows how Pope will do next year, we don't even know who will he on the roster yet. Saying right now, at this point in time, that it doesn’t look like he will have a good year, is really premature.

I said this in another thread. I certainly don't want to lose out on #1 in win count. But damn, do we even deserve to stay #1? We're certainly not doing a whole lot about it, not winning enough on our end. We've been hearing this for like 4 years now that teams like Kansas and UNC are gaining on us, maybe we deserve to lose this record? Maybe that will wake some people up within the program.

I don't know.. Trying to hold on to a record by means of hoping other teams have bad seasons and therefore can't catch us.. just another indictment on where this program is.

Kansas and Nebraska have a lot of tradition in basketball and football, I have been to Lincoln and Lawrence and there is not much of anything to do. You are in the middle of nowhere, I mean nowhere. Funny how they used to get all those players to go there when there was no NIL or was there.
Nebraska won its first NCAA tourney game this year. The tradition grows!!!

This rollercoaster has given the Doom Patrol numerous times to b1tch and moan over the past year. This is about the third time we have seen fans who once said Stokes would never come here complain about Stokes not coming to UK. Th Groundhog Day continues!!
