Jasper Johnson

[Jamal Sunburn]

No, it’s not. I agree with you. Our Freshmen shot poorly (or not at all) and our overall, season-long, poor defensive play killed us. Essentially, only Mitchell and Reeves showed up, as our youth succumbed to the pressure of the moment ... unfortunately.

Kentucky vs. Oakland (March 21, 2024)

Exactly

The stakes not lost on Dennis Johnson.

Nice! Reel in the big fish Pope!

I said it was fair to discuss basketball talent and fit. Also said that some people are always negative.

Maybe if you wouldn’t try so hard to twist the words of others, we could have more rational discussion around here.

See you on your next username.

See you the next time you defend trashing players. You’re on here crying about calling out negative fans, typical message board cult member. Being negative to players is fair, calling out the BS isn’t… well if it’s another fellow message board cult member.

Am I allowed to call the media when they’re unjustly negative since they’re not in the cult or is that off limits too?

Just a FYI, Jasper Johnson is a bonafide stud who absolutely fits Popes system. Claiming he doesn’t is moronic.

I think the Johnsons realize all the love Jasper will get at UK. CMP certainly has shown them. Going to Argentina! I’d bet he will be Wildcat.

I really wish Dennis had stayed in the weight room and worked harder. Oh what could have been.

Matt Jones did a number on his cult. It’s crazy how ate up with complete BS y’all are. You absolutely put this kid down based on some ignorant Cal hate since that’s your identity now. You implied that he wanted to be promised minutes and wanted to play his own game when you don’t even know the kid. You will hate on these current players just like you have every other player as soon as the fairytale nonsense wears off and they miss a shot or don’t live up to your expectations just like every player in the past.

At this point, you just need to ****off.

Very important point this morning about Alabama and the Cheats leading UK by far for his signature and a lot of ground Pope had to try to make up because once again the former coach half ass recruited Jasper, you know really wasn’t interested in a Kentucky kid

🐄 wasn't recruiting him. If at all, it was barely and not a priority.
We would have forced his half hearted offer, eventually.

Cal always preferred Acuff.

Not even an attempt at being truthful. Cal worked hard for this kid.
If Johnson signs with UK , it will be because of UK being in his backyard and Pope, the guy he will play for. Calipari has no bearing on the process.

How did Calipari's in-roads with other players / recruits benefit Pope?
