And? That’s who I want here. Enough with these church loving choir boys. I want the guy who will do whatever it takes to win #9.

I want Oates more than anyone in the country outside of Hurley. He’s an awesome coach, his style is awesome and he will kick you in the balls and walk over you to win. If he were here the fanbase would love him.
Exactly, this isn’t a church league or a day care. He’s not babysitting children.

Pathetic how many here believe if you aren't a religious zealot, you're not a moral human being. Yet these charlatan's are a$$ pounding your beloved program with impunity.....

Nate Oates would be the coach if we had a common sense AD. One who understands the importance of uk bb to the state of Kentucky. You maxed out Rupp to introduce and tease nostalgia with the pope hire so they know where the money is. I know big donors who lived in Kentucky their entire life and never went to UK. It’s so much more than our athletics department can deal with.

What's up with the squint tho seriously? He's a medical student he should give us a update on that. Does he need glasses or have some kind of eye problem? If so I'll forget he does it. But to squint constantly without any problem is odd



Got my hard laugh in for today, thanks. Some things are just funny, I could see him squinting as soon as I read this 😂

Remember when he called some of the fan base Basketball Bennies? And when he first said he was here to get kids into the NBA and Championships didn't matter. Boy howdy those comments didn't sit well. I could envision Hurley spouting off much worse things. As far as publicity, I would hope UK fans would be more embarrassed than UConn's over the way he conducts himself.


If he came here and won 2 titles, that little bastard can say what ever he fkn wants, we just wish Pope had some of that fkn arrogance and fire about him.

That’s true. I just think he would be a dick from the get go. He’s the exact kind of guy most people hate from the first meeting.

Why would anybody want oats?
Let’s see he had a player that committed murder and another one that brought him the gun

Then he played an ineligible player knowingly

Now he has a player that is dealing and he will probably play him as well sorry but that’s too many red flags for me

Hell the kid only had a little over a pound, it was probably his and Oates private stash, for recruiting purposes 😂

Yes, AND he's never won a championship. You guys talk like he's John Wooden. smh

Wtf r u talking about?
Reading my comment I'm going to guess I was talking about Golden's creepy allegations that got swept under the rug. If you're a Golden fan and want him then whatever you say is true. He's not a creep. Hed do good at UK. Not in the mood to go back and forth about the little punks creepiness. Just glad it wasn't none of my daughters he was stalking and sending dic pics to.

Nate oats was made to be our next coach and was given the cal treatment round 1. When I saw that guy coach Buffalo I thought “this is the dude for Kentucky when cal leaves”. Then as he has had successful seasons even a ff at bama. He’s probably the hungriest active coach. Things have funny way of working out when the guy becomes one of us, then everything the lens the way that we look at the perception. It’s completely different. I mean cal was scum of the Earth to our fan base. At least half of them did not want cal. Then those same people became the ones who didn’t want him to go.

Really? What facts did I have wrong?
Did he not play an eligible player this year?
Did he not have a player on the roster this year? They’ve got arrested for almost 2 pounds not a little over one but 2 pounds of marijuana. Did his all American power forward not bring a gun to someone kill a girl? What of any of that is wrong hot shot?

At least they competed without their other best guard. They went cold second half, live by it and die by it, but he would crush here.
