I mean, that’s fine and dandy…but I think they attempted 8 first half 3s. That’s not many at all. Most of the first half 3s were also at the end of the shot clock. They had success cutting into the lead because Bama got complacent, that’s all. When it mattered, it looked like the JV playing the varsity.

No, no, you didn't answer the question. I didn't ask how we should have played the first 37 minutes of the game, I asked how we should have played the final 2 minutes, when:
They're hitting 3's left and right
We keep turning the ball over
We're down 15
There are 2 minutes left
It’s almost like he’s a just a moron that enjoys being a contrarian.
I don't disagree that at some point you are down by so much you need 3s to get back into the game.
That being said, it's like I said a few pages back. I have more faith in a guy like Lowe, or Oweh or something else driving and getting fouled and making 3 that way than them actually hitting a 3.
This just isn't that type of team. Had we had guys like we did last season like Brea and Robinson.......yeah.
All the more reason to be get down by 20 in the very first place
If the fans got after Cal for 3-4 years the way they did and he wasn't let go, then there is a 0.00% chance Pope is being replaced after this season, even if they miss the big dance. None. He will get 3 years. So why cry like a girl every day?
This team screams a bunch of players that are overpaid because our coach couldn’t sign players that are worth the money. Missed on everybody so now it’s a bunch of guys that can do what they want whenever they want because Pope was desperate.
he talks like he doesn’t even want the job anymore. The thing I hated most about Cal was his jibberish he always had during press conferences. Pope outdoes him on that also.

Okay, now we're getting somewhere. When I posted that we should be shooting 3's, there was 2 minutes left, we were down 15 and we just turned it over for the 2nd straight time while feeding the post.
I don't care if you have a team of girls that only know how to shoot Grannie style, you shoot 3's at that point.
Oh, how so? I don't accept mediocrity, you do. What you say, doesn't make sense.
Like that matters.
All I know is, you have the standards of a Northwestern fan. That's sad.
I waited to have our full roster. I was patient. Poe can’t keep starting the bench in a loss. It won’t be tolerated. He had to at least lose with his best players on a floor or he will be torched.
Pope can blame Cal for the reason UK wasn’t as patient with him.
It’s been over 10 years since we made a FF and got a 1 seed. We can't afford to give Pope additional years when this is what we get from him.
Like this...you spend all your time on alternating between negativity about the team and giving Nate Oats foot massages. Get rid of Pope and you're not getting Oats...or he would already be here
What????? Where the hell did I ever mention anything about Nate Oats? You obviously have me confused with someone else. Stop smoking weed for a minute.
Pearl is standing by the phone sweating out a blue blazer as we speak
Bullcrap. I have standards as high as anyone here. I'm also an adult, not a teenage girl. One bad season is not getting Pope axed. He will go on the hot seat as soon as this season ends. He won't survive a second. But he isn't going anywhere, so your crybaby crap accomplished nothing
I think Pearl is a great coach and said that after Cal left. He would have been my choice, as I knew Hurley and Oats would say no. But they chose Pope. So I will support him even though he was not my guy. One season won't get him fired
I never said anything about firing Pope. Keep up with the conversations we are having here.
Look, you need to look at the big picture. You obviously don't see what's going to happen.
You're right, Pope is not getting fired, Mitch won’t do that.
Do you understand what that means? I don't think you do, because you go after the posters who do understand what that means.
It means we have to get through this debacle of a year, then do it again next year and possibly a 4th year.
What you don't understand is, Pope is not good enough for this job and we are stuck with him for at least through next year.
Think about that. Nobody wants to play hard, or even play for a corny cheese ball that is best at being goofy.
I like Pope as a man, but that just makes this harder. Now we have to eat one of our own.
He needs replaced after this season. There’s no let’s give him another year, he should’ve had a good team this year if he was gonna do any good here.
Never been happier to miss a game because of a birthday party for an extended relative.
I checked my phone at halftime, saw the score and never checked it again. Looks like it’s gonna be an awfully long winter in Lexington and a brutal offseason. Might get that shed painted and siding pressure washed before spring after all. Lol.

I go after fans that go to far. The team played like **** today, anything you want to say about that is fine. But a lot of the crap said about our coach and players is straight up unfair
No one is crying, Pope sucks. Why are we not allowed to say that? If you don’t like reading it get off the board. Pope sucks
Yeah. Alabama missed open 3’s in the 2nd half. Other than that it was the same game.
You don't get to make the rules. You're trying to tell people how they should feel. You might have a point if we haven't been so irrelevant for 10 years.
You can't attack fans for critisizing obvious poor coaching, then post your own critisisms. That's hypocritical.
But the bottom line is, we're standing in a burning building and the exit is a mile away, but you are acting like nothing is wrong.
You get off the board lol. You can say he sucks, your prerogative. But he ain't going anywhere dude, thats a fact
The biggest thing though is that we did not even compete in 3 of the losses. And possibly 4?
Here we go again, I did't go after a player. That's not even what we are talking about.
No wonder why you're so chill about all this, you're obviously high off your ***.
Nope. Your recent posts are more indicative of a teenage girl. You jump right into low emotional IQ posts. Grow up
He says a lot of the things kybassfan used to say, I bet it's him.
