We know Saunders and Osobor will be here, I wonder who the others are?
Huge week for Pope and UK (Norlander)
- Thread starter JFCats22
- Start date
Brandon Garrison was one reported for later in the week already.
I really appreciate how he is giving time to each recruit. I’d say Mark is loving UK, but it’s gonna age him. Keep up the hard work.
That’s pretty cool. Can't have a better greeting than you wife giving a hug to the wife of the player your recruiting on their arrival.
huge week hope we get at least 2 guys by weeks end
That's a lot of beef if we get Garrison and Osobor along with Williams. We're talking 760+ lbs between 3 big men. Hopefully that means Garrison is okay with being a back up and learning to Amari. Osobor can play both 4 and 5 spots. I'd really like a face up 4 thrown in there. TJ Power? Or maybe a big hybrid guard/forward like Agbo from Boise St?
I’m hoping for a commit each day. Is that too much to ask?
Also hoping a couple of the visits are for perimeter players.

He knows what he has to do to get this thing rolling in the right direction. I would say a lot of this will be on Asst. Coaches in the coming years. The amount of time he is putting in is needed. This tells me he will succeed at all costs, and that's what we've been lacking in our coaches the past 25 years.
Would love to have 2-3 more guys wrapped up by the end of the week. I know patience is needed and more guys may still enter the portal but Pope needs at least 7-8 more dudes for this roster.
He still needs to get at least one and probably 2 elite superstars to join on

I don't think anyone is coming in expecting to be a back up. These guys are confident and competitive. And Pope ain't promising playing time. Probably looking for guys who want to work hard, play hard, and be good teammates. That's probably what he means by guys that fit in. This isn't the Playing favorites, showcasing guys for the NBA anymore. Different culture being built now very refreshing. Looking forward to it.
I’ve thought Andrew Carr from Wake would be a really good fit but we’ll have to see when the next wave of names with real interest(Pope visiting them or them visiting UK) comes out.
Davis can be check marked as one from what I hear.
Thank god for you crankdatmustard always on the cutting edge
Osobor is a lock and I would consider him a superstar
No, it is very true that if you do what you love, you never work a day in that life. (Keep the Love Coach! Keep the Love...)
agree, like the Power kid, tall and rangy with nice looking shot
So let me get this right. Your source around the program means the staff feels like they have Johnell Davis at this moment ?
I took it as Davis can be check marked as a player that has real interest, not that he was in the bag. Don't want to speak for the dude, though.
Having the coach's wife make brownies for a recruit would be better, but you all decided you were too good for that now.
A visit. Wouldn't go as far as a commitment yet.
Well our new coach’s wife makes cookies for the visiting team. She probably makes brownies or cookies for our players too lol.
Nah, we're too good for 1st round SEC tournament and NCAA tournament losses. That's what we're too good for.
Pope is gonna struggle because of recruiting. I don’t think he can get it done. He needs to get some assistants that really move the needle for the portal or recruiting he needs a recruiter now.
Surely Fueger and Hart are talking to these guys as well.
Look who is back. Lordy, Lordy. How is Cal doing?
Man has been coach a week. And already the panic is setting in.
People need to freaking relax instead of getting amped up for "I ToLd YoU sO!"

Maybe she could sneak in some "special brownies" to help them with their decision making. Don't forget to make enough for mom and dad.
