Wow!! Hell has frozen over! Welcome back Rick Pitino. That was awesome!!
That puts Little Brother in their place.
I think most everyone knew Pope would bring Pitino back. That helps heal wounds for Pitino.
That's about as much as I'm ready to accept from him right now.
But, saying it's rightfully Camelot and wearing those colors was a nice olive branch, especially after a couple of head scratching miscues towards us.
Rick will sleep well tonight after that and I thought for sure he would shed a few tears.
Not gonna lie, got a little dusty here with that finale.
I wish Tubby had been there. Or did I miss him?
He’s always said that he gave up Camelot
Same. I wanted OTS to come out with that 1998 title.
That was awesome. Last bunch of years it’s barely registered. Tonight I felt it again. Really excited for this new era.
Madness was Absolutely Awesome!!! So happy to see Coach Pitino there!!!!!
I don't think a lot of people get that people around my age, that was our first memorable coach. And him going to freaking UofL was like a knife in the back. Like seeing your dad hang out with his new family and being happy with his new step kids. Luckily, we had Tubby who was warm and loved the fans.
But, it's taken time to kinda let the "betrayal" heal. It will be the same for Cal years down the road too.
We should have grabbed him back when Tubby was on his last leg, and Rick was in between jobs
I’m going to leave this alone…..But it feels liberating to be free of John Calipari
We may lose 10-12 games this season. Who knows? There might be some growing pains. I know it won’t be done with a cocky BCG style coach at the helm. Pope wants to do it for us, and I get the idea he would never want to leave.

Your memory is a bit off lol Rick took the UofL job in 2001 tubby had only been the coach 3 years
UL fans have to be losing their damned minds. 😂😂😂
He was def crying. Definitely. That’s the happiest I’ve seen Rick look in decades.
He won't want to leave. But he's got to win. Yes, he's one of our own. But this is Kentucky. You have to win. Ask Tubby;; Ask BCG; Ask Cal. You HAVE to be able to perform at a very high level here.
And I know he gets it. Now, he has to do it.
Yes it was
Best one in many years
Just wish there was a lot of recruits there to see and feel the excitement
He was trying not to at the least. Maybe, just maybe, his soul is coming back. I hope so.
I can't see how this season will be any worse than the last 3. Maybe I'm wrong in thinking this, but they can miss the tournament and it's no worse than losing in the first round to me.
Rating this madness the best one I've ever seen
Nah, can't miss the tourney here. THAT would not be a good start for Pope. This is Kentucky- you don't miss the tourney here.
Every coach gets one of those before fans go, "Now wait a minute..."
He looks pretty rough but his mind still seems pretty sharp
After he gives up coaching, maybe he could be put in charge of nil
It's a new era for UKBB.
Bad idea.. put him in charge of Coach Pope's lunch and afternoon snack choice. Don't need him in a role at his age that really matters alot.
Nah, needs to just be a consultant. He's 72. He's gotta couple more years and at that point he won't want to deal with the NIL nonsense
I think he could raise some serious $. Knows a lot of big dollar people.
He could be a big help in that area
