    Kansas right now for me…..UCONN will have several more portal additions.

    Oklahoma State big man Brandon Garrison set to visit Kentucky

    BYU was pretty bad on defense last year and had an athletic deficit at almost every position. They also had very little rim protection. That team was built to win on scheme and analytics to overcome the athletic disadvantage it faced most nights. At UK playing in the most athletic league in the...

    Pope on the recruiting trail

    Noah was mocked at #1 after the first championship and still came back.

    Last one I remembered was Noah at Florida….came back to try and repeat

    Storr to Kansas

    Pope’s offense is a nightmare for a player like Dickenson. But there can’t be a massive gulf in team talent or it doesn’t matter. Lot of unknowns and question marks on the UK roster. KU roster almost complete and is the current benchmark for everyone next year.

    Storr to Kansas

    They thought last night they were getting Bama’s Rylan Griffen who is also a tremendous player. Self isn’t playing around after being severely short handed last year. Griffin would be my #1 target in the portal because he is excellent at both 3 & D.

    Matt Doherty

    It seems overwhelming likely Cal left because he alienated ALL of UK‘s top donors and he had very little NIL funding for next year. He knew without serious NIL to go portaling he was a dead man walking. The Craft stuff at least in part seems true because of the weird uncalled for Beshear shout...

    Per Fox.....UConn’s Dan Hurley offers honest admission about Kentucky coaching rumor: 'Be evasive'

    Also it’s smart strategically to force one of your biggest rivals in the sport to spend as much as possible on salary and not NIL.

    Per Fox.....UConn’s Dan Hurley offers honest admission about Kentucky coaching rumor: 'Be evasive'

    Hurley didn’t waste our time much….and we had to attempt to get the best coach in the sport and see if was interested in $100 million. Both sides did what they needed to do. Not upset whatsoever about it.

    Kentucky no longer a blue blood

    I agree with most of the post….but I would point out that college sports have changed in the last five years. The coaches at ALL the Power 5 schools are making so much money that’s much much harder to move any of them now. Even Alabama Football struggled to replace Saban this year. Coaches are...

    For those of you who hate the hire...

    Sure….but I still objectively hate the hire and think the job was given to someone who isn’t qualified enough for the position. While there were qualified candidates available that were overlooked for both morality & time expediency reasons.

    Duke and UNC hire from within.

    Exactly right….there were “continuity” hires to keep the already established program structure and culture running in place. Starting from scratch and building something entirely new is wayyyyyyyy harder.

    For those of you who hate the hire...

    Jeff Goodman (sucks I know) but is pretty tight with Pearl and said today on Field of 68 he likely would have taken the job. I personally would have wanted Sean Miller and his 4 Elite Eight Appearances and prior experience running a big time college basketball program. Heck, even somebody like...

    The Herd is Usually Wrong

    It’s good reporting….reporters find out all the facts in the end. Ben Roberts at the Herald Leader for example. And I personally wanted Sean Miller and his numerous Elite Eight appearances.

    Mark Pope Should get an Interview

    Respectfully that’s not true….his morality caused him to refuse to consider: Pearl, Miller and Beard. Miller has like 3-4 Elite Eights and got in trouble for something that is no longer against the rules. But sure hire the guy with zero NCAA tournament wins when the entire reason we needed a new...

    The Herd is Usually Wrong

    No….it’s been reported that Mitch’s morality caused him to not consider: Pearl, Miller or Beard. Basically the entire Tier 2 of Coaches. So he went to Tier 4 for the guy who does impressive interviews.

    Mark Pope Should get an Interview

    Most upset I’ve ever been at UK athletics in my lifetime….

    Kentucky fans got what we deserved-- nobody wants this job...

    This just isn’t true….”established coaches” weren’t given a chance. Mitch moved from Drew to Hurley to Pope.

    Kentucky fans got what we deserved-- nobody wants this job...

    You nailed it! Mitch needs to be fired ASAP….he approached this like a regular job because he seemingly doesn’t understand that high level coaching is totally different than most other jobs. Pope was a Rhodes Scholar who is legit brilliant and has a great affable personality. I have zero doubt...

    Pope’s Deal

    Truly yes….this tops the soul crushing 2015 Wisconsin loss.
