Mark Pope 'pumps a lot of confidence' into players: "He lifts us up"

Call Mark Pope quirky, call him different, call him hyperbolic -- it doesn't matter. It's working with his guys, and that's all that matters.

Great quotes from the players. Jack Pilgrim is consistently an embarrassment to journalism.

No yelling? How will our players know if he wants them to go or run?

Coach Pope will enjoy a long and successful career at the University of Kentucky.

I liked the article and the player quotes.
Curious - what did you find embarrassing?

I think so too. It will be very disappointing if he does not.

I envision Pope telling the officials they are doing great and what a tough job it is when they are bending us over the hickory stump. It may pay off.
