Who knows? Our last coach monitored the hell out of it...Does he read the board?

Heavy duty competition from Arky on him, but let's see what happens!This staff is still looking to add another player. No quit in them.
He sure the hell didn’t take any advice from it. We told him who to play months before he finally did, and to use a zone because we couldn’t guard. He kept having them defend 10 feet away and switching with no hands up for some reason that defies common logic.Who knows? Our last coach monitored the hell out of it...
So far so good, but the next few years will determine how great or bad the hire was. I for one hope he becomes a legend with multiple titles who coaches us until he’s in his 70’s.Props to Mitch Barnhart for taking all that heat and making a great hire.
That’s because he hated us Bennie’s he was going to do the exact opposite of what we knew was the best route to go!He sure the hell didn’t take any advice from it.

Who else could we even add?This staff is still looking to add another player. No quit in them.
He has to read the board in order for him to tell the players don't ever go thereDoes he read the board?
What I would like to see is on the first game at Rupp this season, everyone in the arena, stand, applaud and basically go nuts for the team when they come out on the floor. Show them the love and pride that BBN has for their team and school. Show them that they made the right choice in coming here and show the team and Coaches that we are supporting them.The BBN will not let this team down. We are ALL behind you and all your coaches.

So Coach Pope is really Coach Smith 2.0There is no doubt, Coach Pope has done an exceptional job putting together this roster. And that's really not what he was known for as a coach when he took the job. He was known for taking lesser talented players and making them winners and for developing players with average talent and ability into excellent players. I'm really excited about seeing what he can do with this roster. After last season's paper machete defense, I'm almost as excited to see this team play defense as I am to see them run up the score on some folks.
And yes, Pope needs and deserves the FULL support of BBN! I don't care if you didn't want him or didn't think he was up to the job, we should ALL get behind him and give him a sell-out crowd every night and the best support any UK team has ever had in every game, home and away! I'm gonna do my part, guaranteed. I haven't been to a game in a couple years, but I'm gonna take my family to at least 2 this season, which is gonna be expensive for us, but well worth it. I'm all in!
Duh! Where do you think he gets his defensive philosophy at 😉Does he read the board?
Well he isn't Smooth...So Coach Pope is really Coach Smith 2.0
Well, I'd say there are some similarities. I'm hoping more along the lines of Pitino or maybe Tubby with a better offense. 😀So Coach Pope is really Coach Smith 2.0
I am more excited for UK Basketball now than I have been since the Wisconsin game.........that was the start of my apathy for the team.....then with the Cal kneeling and that just was enough for me to turn my back. I have watched less than 5 minutes watching them since.......it was the same old, same old.........a NBA team that couldn't compete at the collegiate level............they would get to the tournaments and pee down their legs against more mature players.......not necessarily more talented but older guys........the kids crapped their pants almost every time.....COACH POPE!!!!!!!!So far so good, but the next few years will determine how great or bad the hire was. I for one hope he becomes a legend with multiple titles who coaches us until he’s in his 70’s.
At least for now 🤣

I was hoping he was coach smith with offense and a staff who recruits a little better overall.So Coach Pope is really Coach Smith 2.0
