That's worthy of a "yawn", but you and others will sit through 26 losses from Pope, including at least half of those being blowouts, where's we've literally been outscored by high-major opponents over the course of two full seasons, and you're okay with that?

You don't think Pope is worthy of a "yawn", but Reed Sheppard is?

Interesting stuff from some of you Popeist Copeists.

This post has nothing to do with Pope. Why don't you keep that type of **** on the million of actual Pope threads?

Do you want us to end his life? I dont think anyone is happy about the last six seasons.

You just are a cal fan. Im fine with people posting reed stuff. Negative fans like you are why Kentucky fans get a bad name. You are the loudest one here, everyone knows pope didn't have a good season last year.
You going to be the only person who fired a coach after a sweet 16 and round of 32 exit in his first two years after retaining nothing from cal. Just keep on

If he has a similar season next year (same record) but makes it to the Sweet 16 , you'd be happy with that?

Personally, a Sweet 16 isn't much of an accomplishment. It's usually 1 win against a team that can't play dead, and depending on your seed, a win against an average team.

I wasn't happy with the season but I'm not saying fire him. You can construct a decent team with portal players. Last year was bad construction I'm not going to say it wasn't.

You are really gonna talk about somebody's maturity with a screen name like that😂
What, not allowed to have fun because you grow up? Sorry, I’d rather have a funny screen name than bash teenagers for wearing a shirt in support of someone very close to them. Weird *** behavior.

Ky Mr Basketball who everyone doubted & many on this Site called “ a bench piece”.
Recruit Jake Feldhaus and let him prove that Ky still produces elite players
Is this satire?

Reed was a 5 star. He would’ve been a pro player o matter where he was from.

Kentucky is a terrible state for producing high end basketball talent and has been this century. Since 2010, one Kentucky Mr. Basketball has played in the NBA - Reed Sheppard. Since 2000, it’s two - Reed and Darius Miller

Other Mr. Basketballs over that time went to Bellarmine, EKU, WKU, NKU, Boston U, and several ended up at places like Wyoming and IUPUI after transferring out of UL or UK. We produced some good football and baseball talent, but probably peaked in the 1970s for basketball talent.

It was a blast this year seeing the Cats beat Arky on their own floor. And, yet, I have no problem with Reed supporting his old coach. If Jeff wore a Minnesota shirt to support Tubby when Tubby left, that would have been fine. Jeff wearing a Celtics jersey to support Pitino would have been fine.

I loved reed’s game at UK and really enjoy watching what he is doing in the NBA. UK player and Kentucky kid. Son of a UK NC hero. He may be my favorite NBA player.

It’s funny. Out of a recruting class with 4 guys rated higher than him hes going to be the best one by far.

He’s going to end up as one of the greatest 3 point shooters the game has ever seen. He’s close to 40% on 7 attempts per game.

If i had to go back and re rank them i’d go

Reed
Rob
Burks
Big Z
DJ
Bradshaw

Also i’d love to have Burks back. 6’9 utility forward averaging 13 and 5 on 46/37/78 shooting splits.
