My only Pope knock is he thinks he has special talented type players. They are average at best. I wonder if he recognizes elite talent
I think he knows that but he’s got to instill confidence in them, and I think he has. It is what it is and he knows it. I think it will be different when he gets his own players.

I don't think he's gonna publicly state his true opinions on guys, nor should he. He needs his guys to be confident and know he believes in them, dance with the one who brought you type energy.

People said Amari looks disinterested, and some posters were flamed over that. Over the past 2 games, his actions are speaking true to that. Sad to see.

Zags return 81% of there scoring... They look like a team that has played together... We look like a team still learning... Sadly, it will be the 3rd and 4th year before we start to see that... We have alot of people on this team on there last year.. And it will take next years freshmen a year or two to gel.. Just is what it is... I kind of expected this with as fast as this team was put together...

I don’t care how experienced these guys are. Are they good and will fight?

Who thought they were gonna be bad? Nobody did. Saying it’s gonna be a long season is kinda crazy. 22-9 or 21-10
Most SEC teams are going to have better rosters than us. These dudes are the misfit toys. Butler is the only real dude we have.

There were times in the preseason where Oweh looked absolutely terrible on offense. It looks like that was the real version of him. Robinson is a shot taker, but not a shot maker. Our bigs are horrendous. It’s not very enjoyable to watch when they’re playing real competition. The Duke wind might be the only thing that keeps us in the tournament.

If you think Jasper Johnson is sticking around more than a year…

If we can hit our threes then we have a chance. Have to play defense tho.
