    Reed Sheppard's Legacy at Kentucky -- I hate to disagree..

    I hate it, but I have to agree with the OP on this one. He didn't do anywhere close enough to be called a UK legend. Reed Sheppard will go down in my book as one of the greatest untapped talents in Kentucky's history, and I blame Calipari.

    Reed declares

    He's gone. He said "one day I'll return" at the end of the message. I hate it. Happy for him, hate it for UK. Pope's chances of making a real run next season just left the building, I'm afraid.

    BYU Embracing NBA School Identity w/ New Coach

    Yep, that's exactly what I was thinking. Now, I happen to agree with some of these things, but when we're talking about 18-year-olds... no sex, no alcohol, required 2-year mission... So hey, I say great, do what you believe is right. Still, it's not for everyone. In fact, it's for a very small...

    Antigua

    I don't have a problem with Coach Antigua staying, personally. He's an excellent recruiter, which is something Coach Pope needs. I can completely understand why Pope would want to cut ALL ties with Calipari, which would send Antigua on his way. BUT, here's a thought... Although I think most of...

    Small coaching update from MJ

    If what they said about it today is correct... "Two of those positions will reach the seven-day period on Thursday while the other three will hit that mark on Saturday." https://www.on3.com/teams/kentucky-wildcats/news/updates-status-mark-pope-first-coaching-staff-kentucky/

    This Board right now is full of uninformative, useless threads.

    Yeah, we're all just itching to know anything and everything about our Cats, and we are not known for our patience. It's gonna be a while before our questions are answered. We should be more understanding, but usually it feels like the sky is falling. 🤣

    Hubby and I bought four UK shirts (1 tee, 1 sleeveless each)

    Are you completely serious? I mean, I wouldn't be surprised if that were true, but it just seems strange. Why would they want to sell UK gear in support of Calipari and Arkansas?

    Hubby and I bought four UK shirts (1 tee, 1 sleeveless each)

    So, they weren't selling UK merchandise in Walmart because they've been frustrated with Calipari?

    Who is the new assistant coach that is going to be announced today?

    Oh yeah, I do remember that now. It was not fresh on my mind. Sorry. 😀 Yeah, I don't think Pope would go there. 👍

    Unbelieveable

    The writing was on the wall for Calipari and he knew it. Problem is, it was in his own hand writing. Calipari knew the last 4 years were unacceptable, even by his own standards. I'm sure he would never admit it, for a multitude of reasons, but if you had told him back in 2015 that in 4...

    Unbelieveable

    Cal had next season already guaranteed. But he felt the pressure that a potential buyout could be seriously considered and changes would have to be made. So, he made the agreement with Barnhart and smiled for the cameras, then he went to work looking for an out. He was under contract for 3 more...

    Who is the new assistant coach that is going to be announced today?

    I'm not aware of that. But if you know of something, then he's probably off the list. I was just naming former UK guys around the time of Pope who are/have been coaching.
  15. IL Wildcat

    Who is the new assistant coach that is going to be announced today?

    I doubt it would be either of those. I'm expecting a guy in the business who is a friend of Pope (maybe played with him or after him). I heard Nazr Muhammed earlier and that wouldn't surprise me. Maybe Walter McCarty, Scott Padgett, maybe even Sean Woods.

    Chandler to Kentucky

    Yeah, having a bunch of talented freshmen looks great on paper but when they're having to compete against guys already in their 20s, some 23, 24, and up, it just makes things difficult for the 18-year-olds to compete. They may well be more talented, but there is much more involved with being a...

    Chandler to Kentucky

    Glad to get this first recruit done. The natives were getting restless. :D

    DJ Wagner…

    Yeah, you're right. They should now know better than to believe that line anymore. I would understand why Ivisic might give Cal another chance because of the NCAA's dragging their feet about his eligibility. But not Wagner. And let's be honest- neither of those guys are ready for the NBA right...

    DJ Wagner…

    Well, Z has already said he's going to Fayetteville. I don't know about Wagner, but I would bet he follows Cal, too.

    DJ Wagner…

    Oh yeah, the recruits are complicit in the whole thing, not really innocent bystanders, but what do we expect from 17 and 18-year-olds? The parents are the ones who should take note. The ones who are considered the elite blue-chippers coming out of high school are expected to be one and done in...
