Yes, that’s why I think complaining is fair. Been paying attention? I’ve been saying the same thing for weeks. The issue is with tactical coaching

Michigan State doesn't shoot like this in practice unguarded. Well it's not like we're guarding them either
A total travesty of roster construction. Even if Kentucky spent 15 million on this roster, it looks like a clown show.
Giving up open 3’s and getting thrashed on the boards. PITIFUL! If we aren’t under the basket and we aren’t on the arc … where are we?
He did last year too.
I’m suprised how bad this team is at offense and defense. I mean they aren’t even running popes offense. I mean we knew he could t coach defense. It’s like he changed his entire coaching style for the worse.
I know it's early in the year but Pope better get this figured out fast. Our schedule is way too hard to playing this poorly.
We look like we've pretty much given up on running whatever our offense is.
And the fact that when we play physical teams we don't have anyone that can score in isolation. This was an issue last year as well.
We’re just not strong with the ball. Would take a sledgehammer to pry it out of a MSU players hands. We lose the ball at the slightest touch.
Moreno looks like he moves in slow motion.
Skip the 2020-2021 season like I did?
No cutting to the basket
No movement
Dribble and jack a contested 3

There's a reason these middle of the road transfers are still in college other than JQ they're not very good or they'd be in the league already.
Michigan State need that to spank us? Or do they have good defensive coaching?
You cannot spend 20M on a roster and look like this. You just can't. Someone screwed the pooch majorly.
Im usually the optimist with you, but cant sugar coat this one. We are unprepared, not focused, and seemingly not being coached all that strictly. Those are very big problems that point to the coaching and staff. These are traits of a coach not meant for this level.
This is a half thats so bad, that even if we pull out a win and look better in the 2nd.. im still gonna be very concerned. Absolutely alarming how we *look* right now.
Pope's record if we lose tonight: 27-14.
That looks like dog shizz.
That looks like dog shizz.
yeah but without the talent part
Moreno not physical enough for this game, getting pushed around and has made some weak passes
Nah. Nothing happened. That would just be an excuse. This team looks like a Cal coached team.
Silas Demary and Caleb Wilson were massive recruiting losses. Both would fill a huge void with this team. Instead, we have an under-sized lunch pail PF who'll never sniff professional ball and a 160-point PG that's one hard screen away from his arm falling off.
The fans were willing to overlook anything last season, and rightfully so, but they won’t be as patient this season.
Last season's team was so much better.
Yeah because now this is following a similar trend as last year.
Even if we win this game.....the question has to be asked about why we were down by so much to begin with.
We can’t guard a fence pole. This staff seriously messed up this roster.
Damn, I was under the impression we had a basketball coach. MY FAULT.
So Izzo dictates who committed the foul. Gotcha
This team isn't beating anyone in the SEC right now. We suck.
