This time last year who would have ever thought KY Basketball would (a) have a new head coach (b) our ex is at Arkansas (c) Mark Pope is our new Head Coach. I know one thing for sure I wear my KY Gear almost daily now and with a lot more PRIDE!!! It’s going to be a fun ride for years to come. GO CATS!!!
That's quite the change.
From having the referee fraternity cost Calipari tournament games out of spite to now having them compliment our coaching staff on the beauty of our system.
At this time of Thanksgiving, I am so thankful that Calipari is gone.

Amen Brother totally agree 👍🏻💯💯👍🏻
I hope they find the kids worthy of playing in this system. By that I mean kids who are talented/athletic players who are passionate about winning over all else. Otherwise, the freedom to shoot at will could be get abused.
These current players are on their last run. Winning is a way bigger deal to them than most one and done’s passing through on their way to the NBA. So, we have to get the top 25 kids who value winning and tradition. It will not be an easy task. We have the guy to do it though.

He is like athletes foot, you can’t get rid of it. Lol
I'm having Tyson's Chicken Nuggets for lunch as a way of showing my appreciation.
It's pretty evident that Pope prioritizes exactly this over the one and done players. He's made that clear since day one.
Mark Pope and his style of play is a breath of fresh air that this program and its fans so desperately needed. I and so many others, felt so suffocated by the previous regime. It's great that our players feel that the name on the front of the jersey is just as important, or maybe even more, than the name on the back.
I actually think it was divine intervention that Hurley and Drew turned us down.
Pope was born to coach at Ky.
I can not tell a Lie!! You are just to happy all the time, I can’t get what you’re prescribed. Keep being you, if I didn’t like you I wouldn’t talk to you. Go Cats
Yep, I love hearing that! And I completely agree, no homer opinion needed on this one. Everyone has a green light. Everyone can shoot threes. The goal is to spread the wealth and get the best shot for whoever is open. If I'm a recruit or a transfer, I'm wanting to play in this system. It's fun to watch and I bet it's even more fun to play in. 👍
I have to believe Pope won't need to convince good players to come play at UK at this point. The product on the floor is a massive selling point.
If I'm a top 10 kid with confidence in my game, I'm licking my chops at the thought of playing in that offense. Good guards can slice and dice any defense that has to spread that far out to guard.
Centers can't be double teamed in the paint and if you're a center that can shoot, this is your perfect fit.
I’m happy that I could help with luring Cal to Arky, but I’m not buying Tyson anymore. I refuse to contribute to Cals NIL fund . lol
