    The coronation of Pope Mark the First, Mass on Sunday

    There hasn't been a coronation since Paul VI. Now we could have an inaguration, where His Holiness puts his left hand on the basketball and raises his right hand to God and swears thusly: I, Mark Edward Pope, do solemnly swear...that I will faithfully execute the office of Head Coach of...

    Get rid of the screwing birds alternate logo

    Which one? Personally (and this is probably just generational bias) I like the roaring Wildcat from the 90s/early 00s best! I would be so pleased as punch if they brought that back as our current logo is too generic. :(

    Most of Cals UK players (opinion piece)

    Well (as Gomer Pyle would say) you don't love them...I mean you like them but you don't love them. Now if any of them was kin folk you might love them...

    WE HAVE A POPE!! And I hope the first thing he does is...

    Take down all those damn "look at all these guys who went to the NBA!" displays and replace them with true UK legends...for example his teammate and 1996 Final Four MVP Tony Delk! Bottom line, we can finally put KENTUCKY FIRST.

    This scene from King Ralph illustrates perfectly what being our next coach will truly mean.

    I guess it's only fitting that a Pope may fill this role!

    WTF - Mark F’ing Pope? WTF am I seeing????

    Dude it's called a dark horse candidate. But seriously it'd be cute/fun to call him His Holiness :)

    66, NA, 46, 97, and 75 — Mark Popes Last 5 Recruiting Class Ranks

    GOOD!! We need players who will stick with us 3-4 years and give us the valuable NCAA Tournament experience we so desperately need. Trust, me our almost threepeat in 96/97/98 would NOT have been possible otherwise.

    You wanted a coach who would put KENTUCKY FIRST! You got it!

    You know there are those that adore really big women right? And if Mark Pope does in fact become our new coach it'll be really cute/fun to call him His Holiness! :D

    Coaches will not be knocking down our door to get here.

    Nor SHOULD they be knocking down our door. As we all know, this is not just for any coaching job, this job is for the finest college basketball team (in terms of overall history) in all the land. Paraphrasing this scene from King Ralph, to be UK's basketball coach is a responsibility like no...

    So Cal is leaving UK for Arkansas (of all places) and all...I can think of...is...

    But seriously I have said for the longest time that we in Big Blue Nation don't give a flying Fig Newton how many guys you send to the NBA!! What matters is winning us championships and making true UK legends that will stay with us 3-4 years! I have no clue who will take over for us but...

    Only one man can save us…..

    Be our luck he agrees to take the job but then gets cold feet a few days later. And DON'T think it could never happen!

    Going to be in Owensboro for the game Thurs. Good places to eat & watch?

    I'm from the Bar-B-Q Capital of the World myself! (I lived in Whitesville in the 90s though) Did you know Florence Henderson gave us a shoutout in the S04E21 Brady Bunch episode You're Never Too Old? No fooling!! (at 1:08):

    Anyone remember these bronze(?) UK schedule coins (70s-90s)? Plus Rupp silver coin...

    So I recently managed to get this neat "starter set" of UK schedule coins from the early-mid 80s... https://www.ebay.com/itm/305389015196 Does anyone remember these? Are these made of bronze or brass? And what years did these come out? This one I think is especially neat...it's silver and...
