That's way better than a soggy chicken nugget!
Oh man that is telling... Crafts and Boosters must of hated Cal.
LETS GO!
LETS GO!
I'm not defending Cal on a large level. He was a stubborn ass and probably pushed a lot of people away. But in this specific instance he made the right decision.
I hope every story comes out. Good and bad. Cal is gone so now the stories should mostly come out.
Wonder why his post was deleted and why if he hopes the story comes out he doesn’t just spill the beans himself. Likely because he knows nothing and is just talking to talk.
Taking a shot at Calipari and supporting pope is something you really want to see right now from the donors.
I hope it doesn’t to a degree because I’d rather move on. But there is a lot more to the situation and it’s inconceivable what he was doing to the program. Some of it is actually right in front of everyone’s face I’m surprised more haven’t caught on to it.
I do believe over the next few years it will be talked about.
If you’d rather move on, why say that you hope it comes out? If you know something, say it, otherwise quit acting like you have some secret info to make yourself feel special.
It has been pointed out by those in the know, Cal had pissed off all the big money donors, now he is gone, the big money is back.
With the big boosters behind Pope then he can definitely win BIG here.
Many people the last couple of years said he would try to take the program down with him if he left. I believe there's truth to that as far as his intent, but I also believe we will overcome the path of his destruction.
That was a very quick turnaround time for her to acquire A pope jersey. All I’m saying is how many people had a Mark Pope jersey laying around in their closet. I got a feeling this decision been made for a while. Unless She just had one overnighted, which could be true of course.
Or maybe It’s a Lyle’s jersey.
Just sayin

We sure enjoyed tracking their plane.
I get the sense Pope is so excited to be here that he would have flown basic economy with a connection to get to LEX!

They are millionaires living in KY. It's not THAT hard to get a retro jersey. I have a McCarty denim jersey in my closet.
Wow. This message speaks volumes about the late Cal era. Makes sense though looking back on it and the just plain weird, unexplainable stuff going on. Wow.

Damn right. Do some research on the Tyson family. You will find some disgusting claims against them. If true they should be behind bars.
More NIL. Means getting players. Pope has solid basketball knowledge. The odds should be in our favor.
I wonder how many boosters dropped off after the kneeling episode. I personally know several people who were lifelong UK fans that swore they never would watch another UK game until that SOB was gone after the kneeling.
Everything happening around the program right now...new coach, new players, donors back on board and hopefully a revitalized sense of purpose...all point toward a optimistic future. It "feels" like a fresh start or reset and that may be what was needed most of all.
I think it will be hilarious if we get donations to the practice facility now.
Cal wanted an entirely new practice center which would have presumably had a new name. On the other hand, Barnhart wanted to put the money into renovating the current practice center, which happens to be called the Craft Center. This was their most public dispute.
If I were Barnhart, I would announce plans for a new or renovated practice facility at the same presser to introduce Mark Pope as the new coach. I mean, why not?
I have no doubt that Pope can coach. I worried about recruiting and getting good players to come to UK. The more I read about what he was up against as far as the "no sex, no alcohol, etc" clause they had to agree to and still was able to put competitive teams on the court consistently, plus the big money donors that are only going to help us get great players, the more I'm ready to back our new coach.
Why not spill the beans here? Why the mystery. Say what it is we don’t know. Im
Sure cal is a bag of crap but I will admit not knowing specifics. Let’s have them

Of course it was. The screaming began then. Coaches at most schools deal primarily with young black guys. They are -- some exceptions not named -- sympathetic to their needs and aspirations. Some people aren't. But constant screaming has become the way some people make their political points. So, Calipari got caught up in that. Either through bad luck or bad coaching or something else, his accomplishments tailed off. It could have been from being an old coach. Or stubbornness. Or you name it. His record dovetailed with the screams. Exit pursued by a bear.
But I bet you and your kids like those Tyson dinosaur nuggets! Ask Matt Jones? Lol
I’m sure Mark Pope had a Pope Jersey lying around and he gave it to her when they talked.
I’m sure most Billionaires have shady history. You don’t accumulate that kinda succes and wealth without doing some bad things. Not saying the Crafts are, but I guarantee many Coal people got hurt or killed/sick. Lot of people would consider that bad. That’s the nature of the job of course and they had a job many are thankful for. It’s a double edged sword.
No girls. Hell, nary a Coca Cola or a cup of coffee is tough territory to recruit studs.
Half of being an athlete is getting the hotties!
