They aren't Mormon because they are in the big 12 now?

Wasn't BYU a private school with massive financial backing before, or nah?

How so? Do educate me!

You seem angered, bro. Why is that?

Reading comprehension isn’t your strong suit, I see, kinda like your knowledge of college basketball. 🤣🤣🤣

I seem angered? Please do copy and paste where I seem angry??? 🤣🤣🤣

I’ll try to find it. Was an interview that popped up on my feed. He didn’t say anything crazy just pretty much imo saying the culture at Kentucky is still the Calapari way when I feel like Pope is UK first. Kind of felt like a shot at Pope. Wasn’t much to it tho.

Again, the investment is because they are in the BIG12 now and now are allowed to do whatever they want and not follow Mormon teachings. You really are uneducated about college basketball.. 🤣🤣🤣

Beard has been coaching since 1995 and literally has one good season to his name.
One good season? That’s just a stupid thing to say. He’s already turned Ole Miss around.
Uh, and didn’t he take Texas Tech to the National Title game?

And, didn’t Ole Miss kick our asses last season? If you don’t think Beard is one of the best coaches in CBB, then, you have zero credibility.

The one good season was at Texas Tech, you tried to give him credit for that twice.. 🤣🤣🤣 Turned Ole Miss around? He’s 44-24 at Ole Miss. Cal really dumbed yall down with thinking a sweet 16 is a turn around.. 🤣🤣🤣

Take the 2019 fluke run away and tell me how and why he’s one of the best coaches in college basketball?????? Bet you can’t! 😜

He took Ole Miss to the Sweet 16 last season. Pay attention. He also went 30-5 at Little Rock, and won the first round tournament game. Also took Texas Tech to an Elite 8, in addition to the National Championship game.

So you’re saying him being 30-5 at Little Rock and an elite 8 that happened years ago, plus a sweet 16 makes him one of the best coaches in 2026??? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 You can’t lose credibility if you never had any but if you did, you’d lose it all. Your logic made me laugh out loud before I go into work this morning and I never laugh when I’m heading to work. 🤣🤣🤣

No evidence of him actually throwing shade at UK but someone posted it so it must be true.
To sum up what he said was basically ole miss players care about the team first and the team goal and nobody is for their self or trying to get their stats and make it to the league. Nothing crazy just a subtle jab at UK.

Dude has 0.00% chance playing pro ball in the US,, I don't get his thinking.. Play your 4 years at UK,, and you're set in the state for any job he wants.. Go to ole miss,, average few more points than he could of here,, at end of 4 years there,, still 0.00% chance playing pro ball here.. To each their own though..
I'm pretty sure he got a massive NIL raise to go to Old Miss.

And that's great for him.. That'll be good money in the present,, but its the after Ole Miss (jobs) I was talking about.. I don't think his deal is massive but probably double what he was getting here last year,, 800k tops.. Even that would be kinda stupid because he never showed anything last year to warrant that amount.. I'm older than dirt on the other side of Pine Mountain so I'm strictly looking at the post basketball future.. He's young and may not give two ***** about that now..

Why do people think Perry is someone who "needs" post college UK clout? His dad is the Director of Pharmacy at a local hospital and his mother is a Family Practice Dr (both UK grads). The Perry's are wealthy, Travis is intelligent and will likely follow his parents into the medical field (he almost transferred to Vanderbilt because of this). I've known his Dad my whole life. They let Travis make his own decision on where he wanted to go. He isn't planning on playing pro anywhere after college from what his Dad says. Ole Miss offered considerably more NIL and a promise of more playing time than he would see at UK this year, and offered his sister a scholarship as well. I dislike that he left UK, but I understand and hold no ill will. He's a kid who wasn't good enough to be here, he tried, but he knew he wasn't UK rotation talent, and wanted to chase a dream to play high level division one basketball somewhere else. Good luck to him. But he doesn't need "former UK 15th bench man" on his resume to somehow land a post college job.

That’s the way I see it too. Dude had one good season. His teams play hard. So what?

It’s like Todd Golden. One fluke run and he’s the next Rupp to some.

Beard can outbox most women though.

Golden isn't gonna be a fluke IMO. I hope you are right though.

Have fun trolling, bud!

Typical response, can’t answer any questions or back up any of your claims. Just say that you’re uneducated and I won’t ask you questions that I know you can’t answer before hand. I can almost guarantee who you voted for just by your responses. 🤣

I knew what you were talking about. Properly invested, his NIL will mean he never has to work again unless he wants to work. Plus he was going to be a glorified walk on here. Actually getting to play might be important for him. Barring injuries, he was never going to see meaningful playing time at UK. He’ll also still be able to get most of those same jobs later on.

BYU was only in the BIG12 one year under Pope, they were a chump program and have invested a ton of money into basketball the last 2 years, last year and this year due to being in a major conference. The more you know! 😁

Pope has only coached in a major conference for 2 years now. Stick around small fry and you will actually learn something.
Why didn’t Pope win more at BYU when they were in the MWC?

Because you can’t get 18 year old boys to come to a place where they can’t have sex.

Also, I never have claimed Pope is a top 10 coach in the country like these girls on here that know zero about basketball. All I know is that he’s better than your Card’s midget of a coach. 😜

Most of you don't know anything about the kid. He won't need a UK background for "any job he wants" (e.g. selling cars somewhere). He's plenty smart and will do just fine without the UK basketball pedigree. His mom is an M.D. and I think pops is a pharmacist. He'll be just fine without UK.

I didn’t delete anything, shoo means to get something to leave or move away which was not your intention with those words.

Weak is when you make claims but not educated enough to back it up with evidence, which is what you’ve done this whole time. Deflect and not answer absolutely anything related to your claims. 🤣

Lol, sure you didn't! It just disappeared.

You wasn’t using it in that context and if you were, you’re more uneducated than I previously thought.

Still not one thing answered that you’ve been asked. 🤣🤣🤣

Keep deflecting, you are making yourself look more stupid with each comment.

Context? Does shoo not mean go away? Pretty sure that’s the right context. Feel free to demonstrate otherwise. Since you clearly believe you know what I think.

I did? Pretty sure I provided you a laundry list. 2 E8's, a NC runner up. AP coach of the year. 2x Big 12 coach of the year. Sun Belt COY. Won the Sun Belt tournament and went 30-5 in his 1st season. His teams have made the NCAA tournament 8 of his 10 seasons. And those were all rebuild jobs he was hired for.

So, you either don't want to accept facts, are dumb as a rock or simply want to argue/troll.

Who is you list of top 10 currently active HC in CBB?

It's not about that. This is the only place in the world where Perry is known and somewhat famous. It's a long term thing you can't get anywhere else. It's why WCS and others move back here. It has a ton of perks and it's a lifestyle for life that is really special. He won't have any of that, and it matters. He's just too young to see it, and his family obviously doesn't understand it, or they don't care themselves.

So you’re saying that that resume is considered top 10 in the country???? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 You really are clueless about college basketball, holy crap! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
