Sorry if already posted. Keep it up. Seems like we were all just looking for a reason to get hooked on Kentucky basketball again. I wouldn’t have put my money on “Mark Pope, head coach” to be that reason two days ago, but I’m certainly glad to see it now. BBN is alive and well.
NIL site crashed with amount of hits/donations

But But Twitter said all of BBN and the doners hated this hire !!!??
Guess Mark will get a bunch of studs out of the portal then.But But Twitter said all of BBN and the doners hated this hire !!!??
It’s funny nothing was coming in for Cal but it’s crashing for PopeBut But Twitter said all of BBN and the doners hated this hire !!!??
.Someone send a link to show Cal that when the coach shows he gives a damn the fans and the donors give a damn back!Probably gonna have in the 6-8 million range in NIL money when it's all said and done.
Donated!
Does this mean Lafamilia is gone?

You poor thing. It's all misery all the time, isn't it?
Actually it was an honest comment.If that much money is coming in he needs to buy some top players.
Travis Ford asked if he will donate.
"I'll do whatever it takes to keep Sheppard "
Hell yea
"I'll do whatever it takes to keep Sheppard "
Hell yea
University of Kentucky and it's fans are taking back OUR program. Not the NBA's program. Not the G-League NBA feeder's program.
THIS IS OUR TEAM!!!!
THIS IS OUR TEAM!!!!
Tells you how fed up folks were with the previous administration
Did I miss some big unveiling of this Club Blue thing? When was it? Did they not advertise it a bunch?
This is exactly what I hoped would happen.
That’s not including Reed, if Reed is back he’s getting a personal bag from the top boosters for sure.
This is a 6-8 million war chest to build a roster.
Yes. Pick your sport. Then set a monthly with benefits or one time no benefits
We are witnessing the rebirth of Kentucky basketball. Draft night is no longer considered the greatest day of the year for UK basketball. Success is no longer determined by the number of 1st round draft picks we send to the league each year. Now, it is all about coaches that love UK, players that love UK, support staff who love UK and fans that love UK all coming together to work for a singular purpose --- making our program the very best it can possibly be. This By God, is the real La Familia! WE ARE KENTUCKY!!!!
Where was this said? I’d like to see it or read it somewhere?
Oh cool, every other comment is "this hire sux" so glad to see you love the hire now.......
I contributed and did my part…. Let’s go Cats and Let’s go Pope…
As someone who is not fully informed about this NIL contribution landscape... who exactly operates Club Blue? I see the site says it is managed and operated by Club Blue LLC, and that they are a partner of UK Athletics. I assume this means the Athletics Department endorses and acknowledges this entity?
LOL, I keep getting called names but I'm none of them. That would mean you need to get a grip. You're punching at clouds.
So you have a permanent upside down smile until when? Deep run in the NCAA? That's a long time to smile upside down. Enjoy the remainder of your life.
24 hours ago was the weirdest, most shocking single moment of my UK fandom to date. To see what a difference one day makes and the overwhelming rally of the craziest sports fanbase in the country (I say that lovingly and including myself), it’s special. I thought we’d lost it under Cal. It’s a good day.
Go to Alan Cutler’s podcast today. No Filter
Wildcat Country Big Blue Nation Facebook page
Alan Cutler asks Travis Ford if he will follow Pitino’s example, and write an NIL check to UK.
Travis Ford replied, “I’ll do whatever it takes to get Reed Sheppard back.”
LA Familia hasn't received a donation in the last few days. Boy ain't this telling. My goodness.
I know Mitch gave out the info today on KSR, so I’m not sure who is operating it, but it’s obviously with close contact with the athletic department.
How is this by God? You think God is going along with the hate that you all have about Cal? Remember..God sees ya!
Sacked up and signed up for $500 a month. Be a part of the solution folks.
Grievance culture is tiresome and almost ever counterproductive.
Festivus isn't supposed to be every day, it just becomes being whiny but with belligerent bluster like a first world PLO Hamas, or Muslim Brotherhood.
I'm gonna stand by this, I and maybe like 3 other posters were on board with Pope when we heard he got a video interview.. this place was losing its damn mind. But almost everyone came around. Still not a home run yet, but I think this was a great hire, that could turn into a program changing hire.
