What was Pope supposed to do without a point guard and little piggies shooting like they are great shooters?

The "fans" are out in full force. Loses suck but not as bad as some of you on this board.
Go ahead and tell us all what you coaches would have done differently.
Act like Ark didn't play out of their minds. Avg 60 and 3-4 3s a game. Its the Kentucky effect. But I'm not gonna be miserable with all you tonight. We will be playing longer than Ark and that's all that matters at the end of the day.
Enjoy your loathing fest. I'm sure it will be a doozy. Already seen the regulars starting up! 🤣 🤣

Clearly, there seems to be a lack of accountability for his inability to implement a halfway decent defense this far into the season.
Most certainly got outcoached. Got schooled actually. The players were not ready. They did not give effort on defense. And Arkansas made them pay. The most terrible team in the SEC. Such a bad loss. Embarrassing.
Very disappointed in our team, but you people are all idiots.
Our D is not good enuf we can win when other teams brick up their 3s like Tenn did but unless we shoot lights out we can't win with this D
Cal will act like he is vindicated.
He isn't.
He isn't.
You've got to get better players. If Pope thinks that he can get it done with second tier transfer portal players, he needs to think again. This is Kentucky.
I felt like the game was lost when J-Rob got fouled on a 3 and missed the first two FTs. A shooter like him should never miss 2 free throws in a row
That group chat probably talks about fishing and golfing lol.
Pope needs to find out what he's doing that cultivates players to be soft. That's killing us.
He should have ran a zone defense like everyone else does against calipari. Idc how much better they shot it tonight, we all knew we couldn’t match them athletically.
I can deal with crappy lineups when we have *a* freshman point guard and a PF with a half-broken spine. Weird lineups will happen – especially if Garrison can't be counted on for good minutes. Maybe coach is leaning on analytics too much or not enough or something. Idk. It's not good, but neither is the injury situation.
And…… Pope needs to be held accountable. The other losses were what they were, but this is unacceptable. I mean, he had one game he cannot lose. This was it. Such an embarrassing loss. Unacceptable!!!!!
I’m so glad that @sshat is gone. Shame on you Pope for not getting this win!
Some people really show their lunacy when things don't go well.
The pope thing was cool for a minute, but this ain't gonna work. No thanks.
We wanted Cal gone because he lost games like this and we have lost too many this year where we looked like we didn't care and our defense is getting worse each game.
Losing this game, is inexcusable. This isn't good enough.

Yeah we won't be watching much basketball in March. This defense is just as bad as last year's defense.
Well, he kind of had no choice but get those second tier guys for this season. The off season will be interesting but this season isn't over yet. I said at the beginning of the year that a Sweet 16 is about right for THIS team.
Prisoner of the moment but this is how I feel after an NCAA tournament loss
The refs let that escalate. There shouldn’t have been any techs. A ref was a foot away, saw the Arkansas player walk into Williams, and did nothing.
For this year, yes. Last second coaching change at a trash program vs coaching change at a ELITE program. But that back court coming next year is a PROBLEM on the level of any of Cal back courts ever. Add in big Z back, Richmond, Knox and likely two major transfers and year three Wagner. Next years game at Ark should be fun
I'm tired of that blowhard bullshitter. Greenberg just creamed his pants.
They were shooting 3s at a 50% clip so that would have been a really smart thing to do. If they continued shooting it well, you would have then complained about that.
Oh I'll be here, because I'm a UK fan, but this isn't good enough. You can't allow this to happen.
I don't know what exactly goes on in a foxhole, but I sure as heck wouldn't want them in my fighting hole. Ooh Rah!
Yeah good call. It’s like he just wanted to get to the end of the game but bc he didnt handle up front then it got worse.
