This whole team seams selfish.
***** GAME CHAT: UK vs. TENN TECH *****
- Thread starter UKortho
- Start date
Aberdeen has Chandler wide open and misses a contested layup instead. Thankful MM was there to clean it up. This team has some selfish guys.
This team doesn’t even deserve 10k people to watch right now. I’ve not seen a worse defensive team in a long time.
Starting to wonder if Pope just hit the lottery with last years roster and none of them needing any real coaching due to their experience. We had 20 years of experience across just 5 players alone last year.
Obviously this staff has no idea how to teach screen defense. Every trip down we get lost on a screen.
I think the trust in this team is bad. And the lack of contribution I think some players want to take it on their shoulders. OR, they checked out and saw the writing on the wall and don't care anymore.
now just think about this folks....MILLIONS OF DOLLARS IS WHAT YOU ARE SEEING....I don't care how many.....MILLIONS OF DOLLARS SPENT FOR THIS ****.
If we are going to play so many players, why don’t we pick up full court and ramp up pressure? NBA teams are doing that now. We play all these players without actually leveraging the biggest advantages. Instead, we play worse players for no reason.
The hell did we do all summer and fall?
did you miss jasper and noah giving up layups? aberdeen going under screen after screen. is all that oweh's fault too?
This team is garbage. Flat out. Every time out I try to hope something by changes and they get worse.
How come every three pointer taken by other teams are so open. It’s wild.
This Oweh’s brothers burner? Oweh has played with zero effort this season. Some of those guys you named play with twice the effort he does. Keep making excuses for him.
I truly expected better from Pope. Highly disappointed.
That is a very real possibility and I would say likely. Those guys played so smart and they had real leadership. I really think we need Lowe back badly to even be a solid team. Need to put the ball in his hands and spread things out. Jelavic needs to play a lot more he is smart and a willing passer. I dont know why Pope doesn't give him more minutes
I hope this is the day before Thanksgiving idgaf attitude that I am seeing on the floor. Otherwise this team needs to run laps until their attitude improves or their legs fall off.
we went hiking and jet skiing and "team building" LOL
I think they want that bigger NIL check to stay next season. They play like NBA bench guys do who are looking for more clock or money.
Season basically over. Likely missing tournament. Team continues into turmoil. JQ doesnt bother playing. And by years end UK and Pope might agree to part ways out of respect for the program.
You cannot lose this game to the 330th ranked team with the experience we have. Not something you can come back from if youre an unproven coach who is already showing a LOT of deficiencies
What bothers me is that we have no offensive flow or good plays. We don't know how to guard anything.
I thought these things where SUPPOSED to be fix under Pope?
Why does it look like it's a CCC team out there?

Repeatedly going under screens is just unforgivable. Its happened over the course of several games, so its obviously the strategy and it makes zero sense.
The Pope experiment has to end after this season. "But we'll lose all those 2026 recruits"!!!1 Oh wait.
