would be a close 2nd behind the '94 LSU game.
It isn't all that I can ask for. They should have showed the fight when the game started.
He has no discernable skills besides to catch and shoot. Just faceguard him and you're playing 4 on 5
Spaulding get your foot of the boat!!!!
Its easy to grin when your ship comes in, and you've got the stock market beat, but the man worthwhile, is the man who can smile when his pants are not too tight in the seat.
I get what you are saying here. I really do. I’m not down on Pope per se. I was expecting a down year. I honestly could give him 3-4 years before big results but a team that gives up like we did the first half isn’t acceptable.
That team played as hard as they could even in that game.
That’s one reason it was such a blowout.
We didn’t take the air out the ball and try to keep it closer. We just kept playing.
We were out of timeouts and Roy asked Pitino if he wanted him to call a time out. Pitino told Roy to shove his time out up his ***.
Pitinos first team had way way way less talent than this team. Hell, Perry/Noah/Chandler would’ve played 25-30 mins/game on that squad.
Get it down to 11
Play great defense
They hit a tough 3
Jaxson takes a selfish *** turnaround 18' baseline jumper
Then fouls to give them free throws, which they make.

I agree but there are some things that are concerning on D that is not a talent issue. It not understanding help side. It is playing zone with all five guys arms down etc.
Pitino lost the double or triple ot game against Zona because he pressed practically the whole game. Simon and Bibby had no problem breaking it and rained down a ton of open threes. But he stubbornly persisted. It appears Pope is much more wary of the press. Perhaps to the other extreme. Maybe because he aint got the hosses.
5”10 G stick a shot clock 3 in the grill of 6”6 Brea … you know the guy is going to take a last gasp three … jump you damn }^^{<^*|{^£}|~%>^€* !!!
He needed fired after he hired BCG that should’ve cost him his job. Then we can add a cherry on top the way he let the program get the last 4 years of Cal tenure is just ridiculous! If it wasn’t for Cal being a dumb@$$ and going off talking on his own we’d still be stuck with that moron. Now we have this I tried to give Pope the benefit of the doubt but with the way schools are paying players these days there really is no reason to not being able to put together a competitive good team considering we were supposed to have a surplus of NIL money when he was hired anyway! Don’t even let me get started with the football side of things!!!
I remember that game and remember how they just kept going. Just kept pressing. Man, angry hungry Rick was the absolute best. Even better than angry hungry Cal.
