One of the worst lineups I've ever seen in Kentucky history:
Aberdeen
Chandler
Noah
Mo D
Moreno

***** KENTUCKY @ VANDY GAME THREAD *****

You ain’t lying. But we could shoot wide open too if we’d pass. How many contested layups in a crowded paint have we shot with guys wide open on the perimeter? We’ve only shot 4 inside/out threes and made 2 of them. None of those were off drives.
Coach Pope collecting Data, plotting the 2nd half comeback
Clearly you don't understand basketball. Aberdeen was great for Florida last year, as well as Mo D.
@Monday Nitro come spin this coward
Now don’t act like you ain’t excited about that calculated comeback in the second half these beautiful souls are about to give BBN.
I'd take him. Even if we only had him for 5 years or so, he would jump start this program immediately.
Pope's a really nice guy but he's not here to be a nice guy. He's here to win games, and so far he's done a really horrific job of that.
Pope continues to stroll along the sideline like he's watching fish swim in a pond.
This is why our team has no fire. They are an extension of Pope's soft personality.

Does everyone realize we’re stuck with this **** show for at least another year?
Jelly ain't Dirk N but give the guy a chance. Meanwhile, BG getting some clock. 
largest halftime deficit against vandy since 2008. mark pope continues to shatter records while he is here
We have enough problems, but seriously. Why do we start every game 10 out of 40?
we could shoot 5 on 1 in the first half and still miss 90% of our shots.
Jelavic, Noah, Johnson, & Williams were the only guys he takes out for mistakes and they’re on a short leash. Everyone else can make them all night. Been like that all year.
Our players don't improve with our current coaching staff. In fact they seem to get worse each season, example Brandon Garrison. I'm starting to believe, John Wall would have been a 2nd round pick under Pope.
Tanner is twice as good as Lowe.
That is not a knock on Lowe.
Tanner is very good.

Vandy coach up by 20 and their coach is working the refs. Our coach just standing there looking confused.
Why does it seem like everyone we play wants it more than we do. Even in the games where we come back, it always seems like the other team has way better chemistry and passion for the game.
I can't stand this Kentucky team.

Hopefully Matt Jones and KSR can put pressure on Mitch to fire Pope like they did for Cal. It's litterally the only hope we have for the future of UK Basketball
The record looks a little better lately, but it's still the same team and coaches.
Where is he at? It's fans like him that lower the bar.
We have more talent than Vandy. Far more.
Their coach could take our team and beat the hell out of his team.
Pope couldn’t be this bad if he tried. He’s even bad at being bad.
FT 3-8 …..
rebounds with one hand
not protecting the ball when in your hands
dont box out
dont set screens
run under each screen
if this was a jv girls middle school team plying first time basketball, I would understand..
you re getting paid 22mil to play and Pope 5 mil plus to coach…..this is almost criminal…..

Pope breaking all kinds of bad records
Come on brother who built and recruited this roster and who is coaching this shitshow, be honest. I was a fan of the hire but bluntly it’s a disaster and regardless of injuries they were getting curb stomped before these opt uts.
Lack of effort just can’t be excused away. And it happens time and time again. I believe it’s the players who think they are too cool to play hard and have already been paid. But a coach has to hold them accountable. I’d pull them all off the floor and go home. I really would.
I learned to have this voice to text do you guys really want to hear my opinion of the game? I mean, I can talk forever especially about this nightmare that we’re living in as a fan base right now I mean you got a leader for a quarter century everything’s on a downward trajectory football is probably neutral. Why are we still have this athletic director? That’s a real question people need to start asking big changes need to be made in this in the entire culture UK athletics. Vandy is overtaken us basketball and football think about that.
Trying my best to like this team but it’s so hard, they play so dumb and nonchalant on the road. No sense of urgency until down 15, & making AAs out of guys that are only playing D1 cause they’re tall. They ran the same play all half and scored about 20 points on it before we adjusted, how dumb are we???
