****Game Chat: UK versus Bama****
- Thread starter UKortho
- Start date
Hey Mitch!!!!!! Give Pope a lifetime guaranteed contract!!! Gillespie, Cow (last five years) and now Pope! How Mitch is still employed at UK is a crime.
Aberdeen's 3's are nowhere close.
There is no way to defend this effort. We must be the only team who doesn't start their best 5 players. The line up, effort and game planning are just embarrassing. Not having a backup PG is just inexcusable no way around that.
Pointing out the obvious is not betraying your team. You have to be honest to fix problems. I love Pope personally but this abomination can't continue beyond this season if we are serious about competing for titles.

We've got a bunch of overpaid pansies on this team.
I started watching all of Alabama's games years ago just to enjoy their offense. No mid-range shots. It's a thing of beauty.
You simply can't have this many blowouts as the coach of Kentucky.
I love Pope but this can't happen. Being down by 5 at the half is one thing, being down 15 or whatever it will be is not acceptable - and it keeps happening

At some point doesn't PRIDE kick in? I mean, I play bball 3x per week... when Im getting my azz kicked I dont particularly like it, and play harder lol.
Our guys always miss corner threes by a foot and a half. It's almost like they don't even practice
Sad to say. Calipari wounded Kentucky. Mark Pope ended our life support.
The only blue blood program that is totally irrelevant and honestly has been for years. It can be fixed. We have the facilities and resources. We just hired a mid major level coach and he can’t do it. A stud killer coach would have us back on top in one year but Mitch loves losing.
Saban at the game.
5 Bucks Saban can out coach pope at basketball.
Can we swap? lmao

I had such hope last year he would at least be servicable. He did a hell of a job last year considering the injuries. Beat some damn good teams.
I don't now what happened this yaer- but he's done a fireable job so far.
Providence v St. John much better game.
Both teams fighting hard. It’s refreshing. No lollygagging around.

Our guys have zero pride! Getting drubbed on National TV is just gonna lead to fewer guys wanting to be recruited here.
I'd rather Pope put in the scrubs and let it fly. Oh wait, apparently we are playing the scrubs.......
I'm miserable watching this. Gonna turn it off before I throw my UK tumbler at the TV.

btw, Saban isn't there to watch the UK game, he is there to remind everyone he would have won against Indiana
Cost and effort just do not match. That is on Pope. Okay if we simply can’t score due to roster assembly just not working out, but not okay with the absolute lack of effort. Cats just need to watch tape of this game to see how Bama goes all out on every play.
Tragic!
Tragic!
I like the guy. He's a good person. That accounts for something. But he sure looks like he's not capable of running a high-profile program under a constant spotlight. Do you really think that happens?
Considering the injuries last year I thought Pope did well. I am surprised and extremely disappointed in the results this year so far.
Chandler was like, I’m not gonna pressure the ball. Go ahead and set a simple screen and make that buzzer three.
Chandler goes under his fourth screen and Pope plays him. That is poor coaching.
CC with another 3 in front of his face. What pictures does he have on Pope?
Exactly and these guys are professionals they get paid hundreds of thousands of dollars, so how about not playing the ones that have no effort
