If we have a decent lead at the under 4 timeout I would like to hear GO BIG BLUE till the final horn

Why are yall so worried about how espn is gonna spin it? The people actually watching on ESPN would be sitting in their easy chairs all like “Dammm look at that place on fire like that… wish my school had that”.

ESPN will shade in the worst way possible(from a UK standpoint) no matter what the crowd does. If it could be pulled off silence would be the best possible outcome. For those who attend regularly what is the reaction when any other opposing coach is introduced?

Typical reaction is “he sucks too”.

Not worried about it, just pointing out the reality of ESPN

Complete silence.

This is what I would have voted for, if this option had been one of the choices.

I’ll be indifferent and quiet, not wasting energy on him. I’m focused on Kentucky. GO BIG BLUE!

Booing as loudly as I can. He held this program hostage for a long time for his own agenda. Maybe one day I’ll be slightly open to accepting him, sort of like Pitino, but he has earned my disdain for now.

Kentucky was completely irrelevant. The program was left for dead. No one wanted to play here. Florida was a better destination for recruits than Kentucky. Wtf. Then have a coach come in and immediately turn it into a top 10 program. Bring a stable of talent with him. To the point that espn was airing a scrimmage. Which at that time was unheard of. A coach that brought a title for the first time in over a decade. Crushed our in state rival so hard they had to tear the program to the ground and start over. Beat Indiana in an elite 8 and Louisville on the way to a title. Took the program to multiple final fours, gave us prolly
The best team to ever be assembled on a college court despite losing to the badgers, and even when they sucked… they still had every game televised and always had media coverage. Most programs would give a coach like that a statue outside the arena. And yall are so petty you can’t even muster the gratitude to clap for the dude? It’s embarrassing honestly. Once a cat always a cat imo. Coach deserves his roses. He didn’t need to leave Kentucky. He did what was right for the program and allowed fans to breathe some fresh air. He could have held Kentucky hostage for another 3 years before it would have made sense to fire him. But have fun booing from your living room.

Coach Pitino made a good point. Cal saved us a lot of money.

I'll cheer to that.

And I'll cheer to coach Pope.

3 more years??? Are you kidding me??? That’s the kind of thing you say about a coach trying to win and just not being able to anymore. Cal prioritized player achievement over program achievement. He allowed a player to come and never even play. Last season he almost never played his best 5 due to the fact it would keep his burger boys on the bench.

I won’t argue his first 5 years were amazing in every way, but he stopped caring about winning after that. He used this program as a vessel to carry out his own personal agenda, which had ZERO to do with winning. He also despised the fans the last 7 years.

You say he needed 3 more years to deserve to be fired while I strongly believe we waited 3 years too long to push him out.

Clapping for Cal is too much like rooting against KY for me.
