Didn't even see yours above. Owensboro was the first thing that came to mind when I saw the thread title. 🤣
Osboro updates
- Thread starter BStockfan01
- Start date
Pope played 8 guys 19+ mpg, and 12 guys 8+ mpg. But only 9 guys in either B12 tourney game and 8 guys against Duquesne. I have no doubt Perry will get a shot in the regular season, and then whoever earns it will get to play when it matters.I continue to chuckle to myself as everyone on this board looks at Travis Perry as an end-of-the-bench guy. I'd be willing to bet that in the last half of the season Perry is getting 15-20 minutes a game. Just MHO, of course.
Go 'Cats ! ! !

Dat der Great Owensboro is a hell of a player. I heard he dunked over the backboard in practice.
A coach that cares. We are lucky to have Pope
Dude is a machine.
I've never heard of a head coach picking up guys from the airport before.
Did he really drive 2 1/2 hours one way to pick up Carr?
Our Coach never stops working. We got the right man for the job! GO BIG BLUE!
He has to have figured out a way to clone himself, right?

Who is saying Perry is a cigar guy ? I know I didn't say it and don't remember even reading that here. Sounds like your making something up to white knight.
Likely Perry is a 10 to 15 min player this year and a starter in later years.
I never seen that as confirmed but its something CMP would def do.. Carr had barely wrapped up his visit to Villanova when he committed earlier,, I believe..
Butler
Perry
Chandler
Oweh
Carr
Williams
A top 35 recruit; a fan favorite Kentucky boy; two all-conference defenders; a guy who averaged 14 and 7 at a school that won over 20 games; and a defensive wing dynamo who can also shoot threes.
What a beautiful start.
We're also sitting favorably with Osobor and we're likely in the driver's seat for Robinson, Boyed, and Mahaney.

Does the man even sleep? Got a pick up from Carr and you see Pope waiting for Great at the airport at nearly 10pm at night.
But now we have a coach that will actually coach, and not worry about how many lottery picks he has.
Probably just short little CAT naps here and there.
Be hard to imagine any recruit saying no to KY if you drove them down Rose Street on a warm sunny day. 😁
So you are saying we have saw the last "greatest day in the history of UK basketball" on draft night?
Let me also point out two very important similarities between the 1998 National Champs and Coach Pope's team in 2024-25 (whoever is on the team) -- (1) The 1998 team was basically "Pitino's team" that Tubby inherited when Pitino went to the NBA. (2) I'm highly confident that Coach Pope's first U.K. team will also be highly influenced by what Coach Pope learned about basketball from Pitino.
Even given "a hodgepodge of guys from all over the place" ... I think Coach Pope has winning at U.K. in his blood ! ! !
Go 'Cats ! ! !
I hope so.So you are saying we have saw the last "greatest day in the history of UK basketball" on draft night?
Finally found proof he did drive 3 hrs to pick him up.. Not seen it posted yet..
Mark Pope went the extra (300) miles to land a high-profile transfer at Kentucky
The new Wildcats coach went out of his way to make a former Wake Forest star feel at home in Lexington.
