This offense is ugly. The scary thing is that I’m not sure how fixable it is at this point because I don’t see anything we should theoretically do well. Lowe is our only real distributor, and he’s hurt again. We don’t have any great shooters this year, and our big men don’t excel at scoring with their backs to the basket. A lot of that is still on Pope for building the roster, but from an in-game coaching perspective, there’s not many sets you can run that make up for not having any strengths to play to.
Line-ups are a real head scratcher.
I don’t understand why he wants to play 2 big together.
We already have an extremely hard time running a basic offense.
Two bigs that can’t shoot limit that even more
It's funny how we're not allowed to do the same. On every inbounds play st. Johns can grab everything and its not a foul. We can't even breathe and it's a foul.
Are you trolling?
#1 who recruited and scouted these players?
#2 who practices with this team?
Here’s what a coach does when a team isn’t responding in practice.
Based on last game, I *hope* part of his second half adjustments is just that.
I’d like to se Pearl take over at the half.
And we're back to the announcers taking pity on us. Bruce has been awfully nice to BBN during this telecast. Maybe he's mending bridges with the fans to get us to support offer to coach the Cats.
Yeah, probably not.
Yeah, probably not.
That. guy has shot 2 left handed airballs ,plus a right handed 1 footer that didnt go in , I like the young man but he's awful at basketball .. AWFUL. He plays a Nigerian that played soccer for 18 years , then. picked up basketball 12 months ago. Hes just always lost. MD

Aberdeen dribbles WAY too much. He reminds me of Ramel Bradly who would just dribble and dribble and never pass.
I'm at least glad that we have a coach who makes me feel loved while the empire burns around us.
I am on a flight to Atlanta so I can sneak into post game media.
Pope, is it just me or should Mo and Garrison never dribble and only shoot when getting an offensive rebound?
Pope, in practice do these guys actually pass the ball to each other?
Pope, have you ever worked on an inbounds against full court pressure?
Pope, are your guards trying to break
The stat record for most dribbles in a season?
Pope, do you know it’s ok to get on the officials and show some MFN! Emotion from time to time?

New UK fan? It's always been this way. We have to be better than the refs. And we usually are.
I don’t think St. John’s is very good either. Both teams are offensively challenged.
But St. John’s has better guards. That’s the difference in the game.
For some reason we have a tall dude on the bench who's played pro ball who can pass and shoot and he just cannot play a minute anymore. He's either just quit and told them he doesn't wanna play or he's slept with someone's wife or something.

Not true...not true...and not true...
Are we 0-28? Where did I ever post like someone who hated Cal? Good luck finding that. People say Pope made a mistake because we only had one PG, but he did recruit a good starter, plus Jasper is a 5 star combo guard that I think he figured would be better than he has been, plus DA could be #3 in a pinch. He did make a mistake in recruiting, sure, but does that mistake make him a crap coach? No it doesn't. Every coach you slobber over has had tough seasons. Grow a pair dude
There are stints of a lineup but Pope keeps on mass subbing again and its ruining it
Who are the guards/wings we should play?
We have been terrible no matter the lineup.
This officiating is the biggest difference in this game. One team has been allowed to hack and grab and one hasn’t.
Trent Noah with 2 TOs and a foul. And thats it.
This team isnt even worth watching. Checked the game score to see how putrid our offense is, and im not gonna bother to turn it on.
If I was at the game and I saw a JMI exec or Mitch I might actually chuck a beer can at their head. Other schools lose their prominence due to external influences.. we did it to ourselves. Honestly unheard of.

I’m sorry, I want this nightmare to be over ASAP. Pope can’t coach here
I don’t think it really matters. The fact that we don’t have a point guard is preventing us from even getting an open shot. Zero open looks. Just have to go iso one one and throw it up and hope for the best.
