A way better interview than the ESPN one.
I am already so proud that this guy is our coach.
Finally feel like we’re part of it again.
I love having Pope as our leader….
First time I've heard that 100K watched the intro/press conference at RUPP. Anybody seen any figures? I would almost think that it may have been more....if carried live on TV in Lexington. I know UKAthletics streamed it (I watched it there). Streamed on YouTube? Elsewhere?
He is so genuine and refreshingly enthusiastic in his sincerity.
My wife and I watched on stream also .
It is so refreshing to see a coach who is humble and not arrogant. So refreshing.
"Anything goes wrong, anything at all... your fault, my fault, nobody's fault... it won't matter - I'm gonna be the coach of Kentucky. No matter what else happens, no matter who gets fired I'm gonna be the coach of Kentucky." -Quasi Big Jake.... Nah, Mark Pope!
TAKE that!
He’s trying to assemble an A+ staff too all I have to say is watch out college basketball……
We can only hope but it sure trending in the right direction...
My favorite thing is when someone asks him a question, he ANSWERS THAT QUESTION. What a concept!
And doesn't cut them off from finishing their question!
I just brought my husband into our gaming room to watch this. Such a wonderful person Mark is, and I think he's going to do a great job!
I want to add that he desperately needs some sleep. His eyes are bugged out from I'm sure has to have been a non-stop effort to bring everything together.
The YouTube live stream I watched had 11-12k viewers.
Me too, I really really really want him to succeed in the worst way.
Well we have been covered in BS the past 15 years. It’s nice to have authentic love again.
He knows this is a big step forward from BYU. It’s a destination job. The kind of job he can retire from. He also knows he has to step up his recruiting game and he has to grow as a coach as well. He knows full well the expectations and he’s not shying away from them. It’s why I’m confident he will ultimately succeed.
I watched the WLEX live feed projected onto my TV.
I see what you did there, Jacob McCandles.
BIG JAKE is in my Top 3 all-time fave movies. Hell, it's probably #1 !!!
"Dog!"
Richard Boone: "I thought you were dead."
Big Jake: "Not hardly!"
"You ever call me Daddy again, I'll finish this fight for good!"
I know I was streaming it here in Pennsylvania and I know a lot of people in Kentucky that couldn't get to Rupp that watched it, as well.
