I don’t know that I can remember a UK team that has completely jumped off the cliff like this one. I know the seasons not over, but then again it likely is.
Kentucky at Ole Miss Game Thread
- Thread starter onearmedjesus
- Start date
Ole Miss still with 0 turnovers lol. If that doesn't tell the story of the game idk what else will.
in fairness most of them are mid major transfers
I’m giving Pope a complete pass on this year, and anything we do in the tourney will simply be an extra for me.
But we CAN’T miss on a “top” guy like we have on Robinson again. He’s been a waste of money outside of a game or two.
Our offense looked worse than it actually was in the first half because we failed to score on some quality shots around the rim.
D1 players can shoot when uncontested
He definitely was NOT a PROVEN coach.
The question that has always been in the back of my mind is whether Pitino REALLY thought Pope was a great candidate ??
Are you sure he passed on them? I don't recall us passing on anyone, which is why we have Noah and Perry.
Don't know why they would. A feeling of defeat is usually reserved for "I did my absolute best, and can't figure out I can't win this situation". They are LAZY.
Legit @Fox2monk @shaudyshaud @Son_Of_Saul @cornbreadnmilk @whoever else along with myself would put 90 up on this team right now
Season is 100% over. Cal broke them.
Pope was not aggressive or physical.
It is not in his DNA.
I'm not. He's already set the bar high with a ton of great wins. No excuse to play this bad now.
Pilgrim said Kentucky could have had Javon small if they really wanted him. If true what the hell was pope thinking
we’ve out scored them 2-0 since i turned on the game. get ready guys.
I heard an alarming stat someone said Kentucky was 364th in non steal forcing of turnovers..................364th in forcing non steal turnovers.
Why did we have to play both Miss State and Ole Miss on the road in the same year ? I swear in years past we always got 1 of the games at home.
Oh I get it. That’s why I said in another post that any tourney success I will consider a bonus. We are simply not that talented.
It's the story of our defense.
I recall the 1996 Final Four game between MSU and Syracuse. Syracuse committed just 5 turnovers the whole game and the announcers acted like it was a big deal. We've struggled to force that many in each of our games in the last 2 weeks. It's not even noted anymore as it's become so common.
Can we just play Noah, Perry, Oweh, Chandler and Garrison and work on next year? I’m only partially kidding. 
ole miss shooting 62% for the game. but we held them to 60% from 3.
