This game proves….

[WhiskeyCityCat]

That there are tons of “UK” fans just waiting to see Pope fail and can hardly contain their excitement when we take a loss. This team and this coach is an absolute pleasure to watch. They arent perfect but man do they keep us in the edge of our seats! Absolutely awesome win! Go Cats!

Pope is doing great. Go cats!

The head hater said he went to an event tonight and missed the game.
🤣

Don't think there are a ton that want him to fail at all. Not UK fans anyway, if you know what I mean.

 

[EliteBlue]

Yep. Not a coincidence it’s a lot of the same ones who were either “pro cal” even in the final days and/OR negative about the Pope hire.

The desire to be proven right is a hell of a drug

Very true…just get tired of filtering out the garbage.

 

[MrHotDice]

And if you watch the game Noah is starting to play with confidence. This kid is probably the best shooter on the team and can hit shots from anywhere. Chandler played well.

Hell I was glad not to get banned for my Anti-Cal sentiment. I was the screamer from the rooftops .

Those that come on this board venting frustration and voicing their worst fears, giving in to hopelessness and despair ...

TAKE HEED, I say, of this game.

THAT is why you need to be positive and have an OPTIMISTIC view when it comes to Kentucky basketball.

I think we have the right man for the job. He's a good coach and even better person.

Hopefully this will shut up the Pope haters for a day.

Outside of a natty, this is the most important thing. Hunger and great coaching.

Bubble team......12 seed. 🤣

 

[StubbornPenny]

I had this pegged for a loss, just due to the circumstances. But I’m still 100% in on Pope either way. Proving me wrong is just the icing on the cake.

 

[catben]

We NOW have a FREAKIN coach!!!!!

Not a recruiter, not a motivator, not a BS'er, Just a REALLY smart and caring coach!!!!

What he has done this season with a team thrown together in about 6 weeks is AMAZING!!!

Coach Pope will just continue to get better!!!

Does this team makes some mistakes, SURE, but they play HARD and want to win EVERY game!!!!!

We ain't dead yet!!!! Thanks Coach Pope, your staff and all of your players!!!

Now let's beat the Hogs!!!!

 

[Ballin4nine]

Bubble team......12 seed. 🤣

I'd hate to be the 4 seed. I think we will end up a 3 or 4. We just have to play up against lesser competition. The guys get up for the underdog games (except Bama).

You are correct. They are the Cal fans that can't move on or trolls from other fanbases.

There is not a true UK fan anywhere that wants to see UK lose or CMP fail at UK.

That dude is Blue through and through. He takes losing worse than we do, and that's saying something.

Totally agree, we'll said.

A friend & was just talking how blessed we were to have Pope as our coach.

Those wanting Pope to fail are trolls

If there are UK fans that can't see what's coming when Pope gets the talent level a bit better, they are blind. This guy can coach!

It really is. How anyone could be disappointed in this squad is crazy. They have weaknesses yes but every team does. They have won more quality games and been in almost every game we have lost recently. We are under manned and still winning huge games.

It has to be miserable to be like that
