Alabama Basketball building new practice facility

I like Pope. Excited and refreshed for a new era. But there was better hires based on resume, out there.

I bet there were better hires when Duke hired Coach K too. Not saying Pope is going to be Coach K, just saying that Pope has promise and he could be meh or he could be tremendous. We'll know a lot after this season and will know even more in successive seasons.

That’s literally what I said.

@KFuqua Did you not learn anything in April or do you still think Brad Stevens would take the UK job?

What I learned was that there were a lot of things that were exaggerated and didn't actually take place. I don't think that Brad Stevens would jump in and take the job right now and I'm good with that.

I spent a lot of time in Marshall County and around the lakes area growing up. My favorite place in the world

Born and raised in Marshall County. Now I am over the county line in Paducah.

We talkin’ bout’ the same Oats that got run out of Rupp Arena the last time he was there and gave up 117 pts. in a 40 minute game to a guy that the Oats lovers said can’t coach?? Laughable how some move the goalposts around.

I don’t think we could have made a better hire.

I love the hire. I called for Pope over Drew and got crushed for it. Keep in mind he’s not a UK fan. He is the first or second to post any bad news for UK and sets up camp to stoke people’s anger when we lose. Every single time. He’ll sprinkle in some positivity from time to time to keep people guessing.

Every coach gets run out at some point and some time. Even the Almighty Cowl.

Is Walter McCarty a better coach than Calipari?
