It's only a matter of time before the resurrecting class is assembled.

Calipari said UK was a 10 year job. Since Coach Rupp, it appears as though he was correct. I feel like though, if Pope can get recruits, he could do something great here and be here for a generation, at least if the fans will allow it. Any thoughts?

I will start with the two bigs.

Goodman broke down the UK AD process to arrive at Pope (including a lot of the stuff that we've already speculated on) and then also presents a compelling case for Pope optimism going forward.

If you're still wavering about the whole deal, I think this is an excellent listen and worth your consideration. No fluff, smoke-blowing, or fan rationalization - very calm analysis. But more than any other interview/podcast, this one made an impact on my thinking:
