I love that dude. I don’t care. He’s awesome

Not sure how to feel on that. On the one hand, I like the “no craps given” attitude. But man, that does explain why his team are a bunch of jerks.

Imagine Pope saying that. Just. Weird.

 

[YardCat]

I have to agree with him, but they are still kids at 25 and they have bad games. Hope he didn’t jinx himself.

 

[MegaBlue05]

I can’t wait for their brash, punk asses to flame out in the Round of 32 after 47 year old Baker-Mazara does something thuggish/stupid.

The tough guy act/talk has never impressed me.

Auburn reminds me of the Atlanta Celtics AAU team. Everyone in the media who followed them had them as unbeatable and winning every AAU event and they'd implode in big games due to the "Atlanta'ness" of their organization and peak way too early, gag. This team is giving off 1st Weekend upset vibes right now. Maybe they just need to get to the NCAA's but I don't like how they are playing at all.

Is this sarcasm? 25 year olds are not kids lol. That a full grown man in every way, shape, and form

Totally agree. While I'm pleasantly surprised at Pope, I still wonder what it might have been like at UK if we picked up Pearl.

Kind of like 2015 Kentucky. Just another massive Cal failure.

Auburn can have him. His team plays as physical as anybody and he rides the refs every time the camera shows him. Some of his players are thuggish and you wonder where that comes from. Broome gets more calls than any other player. I'm finding it difficult to like anything about their team, but I will acknowledge they're very good.
Can't help but wonder if their physical play will cause foul trouble in the tournament if the officiating is a little tighter.

 

[UKAlum84]

He's like the equivalent of a football coach, running a basketball team.

He probably tells his players to hit hard and forget about the "art" of basketball.

Not saying he cant coach, but what he does is overly aggressive.

 

[crestcat]

No they’re not……but a couple are prix

25 is not a kid anymore.

You’re a kid till you’re 40 if you bounce a basketball!😂😂 LeBron is still a kid!
