You don’t get a pass at kentucky

[canebreak]

Year one for a selection of coaches at their current school

Pitino: 20-13, missed NCAAT
Golden: 16-17, missed NCAAT
Pearl: 15-20, missed NCAAT
Scheyer: 27-9, 5 seed, L Round of 32
Nate Oats: 16-15, missed NCAAT
Dan Hurley: 16-17, missed NCAAT

And I’m sorry but if you’d trade our season for Louisville’s you’re an idiot. They racked up tons of wins in a cupcake ass conference and will still be seeded below us. Because nobody gives a crap about any of the teams they’ve beaten.

Toe to toe with duke. I think they win this game

 

[Elliott Tim]

Pope has actually done better in his first season than both those guys did in their first.

Yes indeed!

 

[HagginHall1999]

We've had more injuries this year than any I can remember in my 30+ years watching UK.

It is a freaking miracle we are where we are now.

It is a freaking shame we didn’t get to see this roster together all season.

 

[catben]

I think similar

I don't.

We will be MUCH better and our record will reflect that.

 

[UKWildcats1987]

Duke has 2 players out. Big deal.

 

[BlueWorldOrder74]

It’s not about the result as much as the hunger. Injuries or first year have nothing to do with it. UL plays their azz off on defense. They look like a very good team and we could not beat them right now.

Are you a real Kentucky Basketball fan? Inquiring minds want to know.

 

[Digger-Cat]

Are you retarded? Seriously asking. 2010 UK was not a shot from the final four. They were down 5 points with like 10 seconds left and bricked yet another 3 pointer and west Virginia then made 2 FTs to win by 7.

UK never had a legit shot to make the final four once WVU went on a run n the 2nd half.

Not to mention, the SEC back then was an absolute joke. That 2010 team lost to a bad South Carolina team.
Pope is trying to win games with one arm tied behind his back in the toughest conference of all time.

He's not. Bragging about Lewisville hanging with Dukes B team without Flagg

 

[NKYWildcat]

This isn't Golden's first year, its his third. And it's Pitino's second. Not his first, either.

St Johns and Louisville have 9 Q1 wins between them in 18 games. Pope has coached this team to 11 in 21.

This info isnt hard to find. Google is your friend.

 

[SemperFiCat]

This has to be one one the single dumbest threads of seen for a min. Good Lord Almighty. This HAS to he trolling or satire. I refuse to believe we have a fan with this low a basketball IQ.

 

[hotelblue]

cool. we already did. with flagg.

 

[canebreak]

Duke has 2 players out. Big deal.

So does UL and they’d beat us right now. So much quicker and attitude

 

[catben]

Toe to toe with duke. I think they win this game

And, ONCE AGAIN, who BEAT Duke with their FULL ROSTER????!!!!!

You guessed it, COACH POPE AND HIS KENTUCKY WILDCATS!!!!!

This answered my question.

 

[TeoJ]

Can’t compare. Pitino came from probation with no portal. Cal followed Gillespie and was a shot from final 4.

Now you are changing every thing you said you got out in your place you lost and having trouble coping.

 

[KYFOSSIL]

Oh, you mean the duke team we beat when they had all their players

 

[mdlUK.1]

As I watch Pitino destroy the big east and Golden destroy the SEC it got me thinking how important coaching is in college. If these two guys can go to these schools and find players that compete then the UK coach never gets a pass. Even in year 1. Pitino and Golden have players that compete. For that matter UL does under Kelsey. That’s why you never get a pass. You have to be tough and hungry. Everything in place here. If you can do it at Florida and St John you can do it here

Pitino went 13-13 in his first season at UK. Including a 50+ loss at ku. No, Pope doesn’t get a pass but I’d say he’s done pretty damn good for having a month to put a roster together. And he's had some great wins despite an unreal amount of critical injuries.

 

[TeoJ]

Toe to toe with duke. I think they win this game

You realise Flagg is not playing?

 

[runt#69]

😂

Did Pitino lose his starting SG and PG? And the backup PG?

Did his starting PF have a lingering back injury all season long?

This site is like the twilight zone right now. These posters can’t be real with some of these takes.

for real

faaaaaaaaaaaaaaar Pope

Seriously, this board has had the absolute WORST takes in the past 24 hours. Some of you need to go touch grass. Badly.

they already beat them tf u talking about? The ACC is pure garbage.

What's crazy is they were the worst 3 point shooting team in the tournament, literally! And they didn't score one two point basket in the first half. All 3's and free throws.

When healthy this team competed with the best in the country, and beat UofL so it seems you are just trolling

The most amazing thing about this ridiculous post is it got 3 likes. If their was an unlike button it would have crashed

 

[crawfords corner]

Dumbest thread ever created on the rivals network.

The most amazing thing about this ridiculous post is it got 6 likes. If their was an unlike button it would have crashed

i think they were likes because of the laughter emoji.

 

[canebreak]

UL looks awesome and have for quite some time. Their defense is so good. So good

 

[UKWildcats1987]

UL looks awesome and have for quite some time. Their defense is so good. So good

And yet they will lose n the first round of the ncaa tourney.

 

[hotelblue]

kentucky got 93.

 

[Lempface]

Anyone bragging up UL and their coach……

If only UL and UK could have played this year to see who came out on top…….

And we win 6+ more games in conference if we played in the ACC, you know where half their teams were outside the top 100 or something silly like that.

 

[Kuhldaddy]

i think they were likes because of the laughter emoji.

Oh, you are correct. Just 3 likes. Thx

 

[bluedom44]

I must say, Kelsey has UofL playing hard. They don't take any possessions off. UK vastly more talented than Louisville, but Louisville plays hard and plays defense. They punch above their weight. I give credit where credits due.

 

[Nuke99m]

Dumbest thread ever created on the rivals network.

And that's saying something.

 

[BGCATFAN2012]

And next year what will you say.

They will all say it takes time to develop a roster and chemistry. Then it takes time to get your players adjusted to SEC. Then it takes time to make it past first weekend.

I'd be down with an unlike button but like YouTube, can't hurt people's feelings anymore. You'll be labeled an emotional terrorist. (This has nothing to do with politics, just how soft society is becoming.)

 

[canebreak]

kentucky got 93.

So you think we’d beat them? I don’t. And it makes me want to throw up. We barely beat them in Rupp

 

[Rockfly78]

Since when are we measured against UL?

Go ahead and throw up. Choke on it. Please.

 

[hotelblue]

So you think we’d beat them?

already did.

 

[MonsterMash79]

I think similar

I’ll take that.. beat puke, sweep Tennessee, beat top 25 teams on the road, beat Florida ( damn good team ) , and get a 3 seed in tournament with a list of injuries 👍 shit, I’ll take that all day long lol..
