Not sure what the goof was interpreting, lol. No way Pope is heading to the NBA.Nah, I took it as Coach Pope might be Jaxsons coach again.

Yup, academic reasons is the cover story for recruited over.
I think he was joking. That's why I liked the comment anyway.Not sure what the goof was interpreting, lol. No way Pope is heading to the NBA.
Then why did Pope go to the combine to watch him?Robinson is staying in the draft, and the coaching staff knows this. He is ready to move on from college.
Who do you think they get to fill the scoring role then?Robinson is staying in the draft, and the coaching staff knows this. He is ready to move on from college.
Positive spin he could have been there looking at other guys. I haven’t seen Jaylen wells on one mock draft at all. Pope should be getting in his ear right nowThen why did Pope go to the combine to watch him?
I don't think UK is even on Well's list.Positive spin he could have been there looking at other guys. I haven’t seen Jaylen wells on one mock draft at all. Pope should be getting in his ear right now
I didn’t even know he had a list, but Kentucky can certainly get on that list and become involvedI don't think UK is even on Well's list.
Well’s contacted UK if I remember correctly. I’d assume he’s interested if he stays in college.I didn’t even know he had a list, but Kentucky can certainly get on that list and become involved
Not the shooter Reeves is thoughSeems to me he would an ideal finishing piece to the class, seems like a better player than Lanier. Almost Reeves like in that he’ll have experience in the same system under Pope if he comes back.
“Just him showing up alone — that says a lot. He didn’t have to do that,” Robinson said. “I mean, he’s at Kentucky now. He coached me at BYU. But, technically, he isn’t my coach anymore. As of right now, at least."
Money talks bull$&$& walks,I don't think UK is even on Well's list.

Reported the other day AR, USC, California and Gonzaga FWIW.As soon as Wells entered the portal with a “do not contact” tag. it was reported he reached out to UK. In fact, I don’t recall reading that he reached out to anyone BUT the Cats.
Taking Almonor means you aren't getting one of those and that's what I'm talking about. Roster spots, not guard/forward/center. The internet is too literal at times. By taking Almonor that means Pope knows we're out on one or more of those guys.Almonor isn’t the backup for Robinson Lanier Poplar.
See message #97OK, it seems like on the street that Almonor is committing to us soon. Think there is two weeks left to decide if they want to stay in the draft. Does not seem like we would want to wait around for a guy that long and possibly losing a couple of guys that want to come here now.
See message #97Not at all. Almonor is backup to Carr and another frontcourt option
Kentucky was never getting laneir and Robinson to begin with. It was always one or the otherSee message #97
Harris, Mayo, Griffen, Robinson, Storr, KJ Adams, Dickinson would be the primary rotation of 7.On your alls end if Robinson goes there some body is not gonna be happy with touches and playing time
And the sky is falling. You don't know any of thatLooking bad. Lanier prob UT bound, Robinson to Kansas. Who's the pivot? Poplar or some other draft snub?
It’s just a weird situation to me. If Robinson chooses Kansas he is the third choice wing and gets what 5-8 shots a night. If he comes to Kentucky he is the clear number one option and gets as many looks as he wantsHarris, Mayo, Griffen, Robinson, Storr, KJ Adams, Dickinson would be the primary rotation of 7.
With spot minutes from Bidunga and Elmarko Jackson.
I’m guessing Elmarko would be the one upset and likely transfer after this year I’d bet. Regardless it’s a fun lineup on paper.
When I lost my home and my family and was living on the street I loved the PIPE LIKE A FATHER, too.I read the entire story on KSR, Robinson looks up to Pope and gives him a lot of credit for being the player and man he is today. In my opinion he will either stay in the draft or be at KY. The Kid loves Pipe like a father.
Hope he stays in draft now. I guess it's lanier or bust.
Yeah I think those Robinson to Kansas rumors are true.
Laneir or poplar Kentucky is trying to set up a visit with poplarHope he stays in draft now. I guess it's lanier or bust.
I notice he has visits to Nova and Oregon planned.Laneir or poplar Kentucky is trying to set up a visit with poplar
Poplar has some interest in Villanova with him being from Philadelphia. Made a comment about it.I notice he has visits to Nova and Oregon planned.
His camp is trying to set one up with Kentucky as well according to pilgrimI notice he has visits to Nova and Oregon planned.
We were never getting more than one of Poplar, Robinson, Lanier. One of them and a backup power forward were what we had a chance to get and what Pope has said he wants and we've gotten half of it so far.Taking Almonor means you aren't getting one of those and that's what I'm talking about. Roster spots, not guard/forward/center. The internet is too literal at times. By taking Almonor that means Pope knows we're out on one or more of those guys.
Pope said he wanted a scorer/ shooter as a piece at the 3 or 4 wing spot. I never said we were getting anyone. I said Almonor was a fallback option at that spot. Means we are probably done at those spots. I wasn't wrong.We were never getting more than one of Poplar, Robinson, Lanier.

I just reread what you said. Change your name, you are a troll.I never said we were
"We?"Pope said he wanted a scorer/ shooter as a piece at the 3 or 4 wing spot. I never said we were getting anyone. I said Almonor was a fallback option at that spot. Means we are probably done at those spots. I wasn't wrong.
I'm not sure what you read but all I ever said was Almondor was a backup option for Robinson's roster spot. Why are you angry? Pope even said he wanted one more player at the 3 or 4 that's a scorer/shooter. Are you all there in the head??I just reread what you said. Change your name, you are a troll.
I'm not even going to respond to this. Save your personal attacks for someone else. Place me on ignore if you like. Anyone is certainly free to do that, ukfan1622. Why are you so angry, is my only question."We?"
You aren't, and never have been, a UK fan.
Neither have your other puppet accounts.
No one is angry.I'm not even going to respond to this. Save your personal attacks for someone else. Place me on ignore if you like. Anyone is certainly free to do that, ukfan1622. Why are you so angry, is my only question.
