Pope has more energy than 99% of the coaches in the world.
Potential bad obi abgim rumors?
- Thread starter chasingwildcat
- Start date
lol Braden Smith MIGHT be able to get over a thin piece of paper but if it’s cardboard paper then I’m putting money on the paper.
Btw, and this is nothing personal to Jake but how did he land the girl in his profile pic? Gotta be money or meat.
If Smith wants to come here, I will take him any day of the week over Agbim at PG.
Agbim is the better athlete, but Smith is a winner. He has won NCAA tourney games, and played for a title last season.
I want winners.
See Lamont Butler today.
Smith is another Butler, when it comes to winning.

I wish he could give Williams some of it.
Pope has a couple of days to focus on some portal recruits. We know UT so game planning will be easier. But give the kids a couple of easy days and focus on recruiting.
Watching Chandler and TRENT FREAKING NOAH contribute meaningful minutes during a sweet 16 run is all I need to know lol.
Pope doesn't need generational talent to win here and he has more tools, support and options then he has ever had anywhere else in his coaching career.
The foundation Cal completely broke has been fixed
literally not worried about transfer portals with Pope. I feel like he will get the players that fit the best for him. Especially given this season success.
OP are you Jake?!!!
Just so some people don’t get confused. You might want to edit that to “weren’t “ .
Isn't Thomas the 1 we are focusing on? How good is he? Saw that he averaged 15.6 points, 4.7 assists, the second best assist/turnover ratio in the conference and was their best player. Ironically a shoulder injury put him out late in the season. Two years left is a good thing. Anybody seen him play?

Fox with a jumper???
Yet he's not considered even a second round pick as a senior.
Not saying he's not a good player but he has to have some major holes in his game also .
Keep in mind it looks like pope wants tay kinney in next year's class. That way he and lewis can split up the pg minutes the following year. So he'll likely grab a pg with one year eligibility for next year. If agbim is only getting lukewarm contact with our coaches it could be because our pg interest is elsewhere, wink wink.
Let's not kid each other. Whoever shows this kid the biggest bag of money will most likely get his services.
Is it that way for every player? No. Is that way for most? Yes. Players are people, and people like money.

'Heavily involved with Dedan Thomas' to me means if he wants to come, he come. How quick is he and how good on defense is he? Everything else looks solid.
Agbim/Oweh comparison. Alot of similarity in overall game. Oweh appears to be stronger by a bit, Agbim more reliable outside shooter and has the driving ability of Oweh. 41% deep shooter without the Oweh twitch. I definitely would want him especially if Oweh goes pro, but I am more interested in building a solid front Court
Dent looks very strong kind of like Oweh. Two grown men out front that stout would be a good thing in the SEC.
Well he is in college, grown adult. Not my thing neither, but know what you are talking about before calling out someone.
No doubt they have and need to, but this thread was posted (and I responded) Sunday before the portal opened. And it's one thing to "reach out" and another to "match his energy" or whatever the poster said Obi told him
Yep…and I responded a few messages later that it’s weird messaging college kids on social media too.
