Awesome, glad he's here
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for sharing. Can't get enough of Pope's interviews.
I know Pope is very analytical so I hope he works on the NET thing. Cal never changed and had us playing teams in the 300s that his buddies kids friend was the ball boy for the Nets or whoever.
Its going to take a few seasons to get the schedule where he wants it. At no point do I see us playing less than 7 non conference home games out of the 13 we get so playing in Maui and the ESPN classic and CBS classic just isn't gonna happen.Unfortunately I think some of that we are tied into. Things like the SEC deal with the SWAC conference (why did we do this). That I don't think can be changed and that team will no doubt be in the 300s
Tho Pope also won't do what Cal did in that he invited schools that had connections to the him. We can stop doing that now and maybe schedule more mid 100s teams instead.
He tried so hard not to ummm place blameThought it was really interesting how he emphasized the schedule and saying it needs to be fixed basically.
I think he will become a real media darlingGuy is the definition of fresh air. Really comfortable in his skin and has a lot of charm to him that the media will eat up.
And if anyone says UK isn't winning a title anytime soon, just tell them that this is about getting back to UK basketball the way it used to be, where it was FUN to follow the team.My dad would have loved this
I finally put on a Kentucky shirt for the first time in over 3 years the other day
And it felt good
Sane post.Love this, we may go .500 next season and I won't care. We're going in the right direction.
Yes, exactlyAnd if anyone says UK isn't winning a title anytime soon, just tell them that this is about getting back to UK basketball the way it used to be, where it was FUN to follow the team.
Can’t love this post enoughI love every interview he does. He seems like he's having a blast and living his dream. He has an exuberance and energy far greater than his age should allow.
Of course I hope he wins because he's out coach but also because I'm cheering for him as a person.
I noticed that as well. He also said he needed to prepare other players for the media "noise" surrounding the program but not Kriisa; basically said he'll eat it all up and grow stronger.In every interview he does, kristas name eventually gets brought up and when it does pope and the interviewer both start grinning all over themselves.
