Adding Mo D is the biggest issue I see thus far. He just doesn't do anything well. His NIL $ & more should have been given to Wilson
Yeah but Mo D is exactly what we lacked last year. An athletic, hustle-type player who does all the little things and doesn't need the ball to be effective. Those guys win games and are more impactful than the box score shows.
Feels like we really needed a stretch 4 to replace the very underrated Carr. Mo has very good points but a lineup with him Garrison,Oweh and Lowe is a nightmare for outside shooting.
I still think Lowe could be top tier. He had a horrible second half and still is shaking off the rust. Garrison in my opinion is just a role player for sure. I was hoping for him to breakout this year but he still looks lost at times.
Good Lord. He just signed two top 20 recruits for this years class. And it wasn’t long ago when our coach got bashed for signing the top class year after year.
Agreed. What many claimed to be our greatest asset (depth) might be our biggest liability. Depth is great, but in the NIL era the money is spread too thin and creates a dilemma with playing time. After all, there's only so many minutes to distribute.
? 
The sad thing is our defense was pathetic against Georgetown and UL. It’s either Pope can’t coach defense or he did a crappy job picking his defensive portal guys.
3rs team all ACC Jaland Lowe? You’re reaching there. How about letting the season play out? Or at least more than 1 1/2 games he has played in. Geez
I think what is bad wrong is the crazy $22 million being thrown around. No way is that amount is being paid to this roster or any roster in the SEC.
Yes, but they are both home grown. I like pope,but he has got to get some star power. A go too type player. He lost the ky kid this class that went to Kansas.
It wouldn't of mattered about Kinney though right because he was home grown.
So you are agreeing that Lowe is trash after the limited time he has played this year? Interesting
He's not trash but he's never been a good defender or outside shooter.
If that is the case Garrison is overpaid by a lot. Should've let him just walk and spent that money on Wilson!!!!
Exactly I think Mo D is the least of our problems I think he should've let Garrison and Oweh walk. Then we settled for tier level 3-4 PG. I honestly don't think Oweh is the savior that people make him out to be.
I think Jelavic is/was supposed to be Carr's replacement. Too early to know what he's capable of, but I think he'll be much better than he is now just 2 months from now.
If he stays for three years, I think eventually he will be Carr with better rebounding ability and athleticism. But in this year, I don't think he will be enough to replace Carr
I understand that to an extent yes but he has recruited some good freshman so far. Depends on who else he signs. Not all ranked highly guys pan out, maybe he gets #10 and #15 and there turn out to be the dudes who were a little under rated and ready.
Again we have no clue, as does anyone reporting that number how accurate it is. If they know for sure? Publish the documents proving it.x
He’s FOS, in no world was Garrison paid over a million in NIL. It didn’t happen.
We need Moreno and JJ to keep developing and play big minutes by March. That’s all I need to see.
Also don’t judge me to hard if I post while we are getting our *** kicked lol.. I try to not say too much bad stuff about personal players even tho I do criticize them pretty harsh but Pope is gonna get it like any coach should. I just hope him being one of us and being a national champion here don’t make him to good to criticize or he shouldn’t get any kind of passes just because of the history tied to him and UK.
Bro, we scored 88 points. We need better defensive coaching. We didn’t lose because we didn’t have a “dude”. We lost because we didn’t have a way to stop the bleeding. JMO
We need a defensive stud then lol if our coach isn’t gonna coach it. Maybe JQ gets back soon.
