Pope with the best entrance ever into Rupp.

When he got off the bus inside the arena that was the single loudest I’ve ever heard Rupp. Louder than when Pitino’s first team beat Shaq and Chris Jackson 101 to 99. Louder than when we made Nick Calathes miss three straight free throws by screaming. I may have some hearing loss.
 
How big is that bus? Good Lord
My wife said that there is no way that bus holds that many people and they must be coming in the back door. I don't think so, I think they just packed them in like sardines, letting the older guys sit down and the younger guys were standing. If was a short ride, because they probably loaded up just outside Rupp.
 
I'm thinking that UConn didn't have this impressive of a gathering to celebrate winning the whole shebang!

Did anyone catch how many Cal era players were on the bus?
Matt Jones said it well, that a lot of Cal's players may stay loyal to him and go to Arkansas, but Cal will probably retire in 5 years or so, then where will they go?
 
I was there. It was electrifying.

I loved seeing Wayne Turner, Derek Anderson, Jeff Sheppard, Tony Delk there and others.
Does anyone ever see a day when Calipari's Wildcat players revisit Rupp Arena? I don't see it happening.
