re: Does Mark Pope make it through the year?

Posted by BluegrassBelle on 1/3/26 at 1:21 pm to Tuscaloosa

They’re not going to let him go in Year 2 after the Sweet 16 last season. Not if they want a decent coach to make it to Lexington.

Should force him to hire a GM. Don’t get it done next year and he’s gone.

I’ve seen 3 National Championships in my lifetime and a couple Runner-Ups. Under 3 different coaches.

If he doesn’t work out we’ll move on. It happens even to the best of programs. :dunno:

I thought Pope didnt want one? He clearly needs one.

Then the issue needs to be forced. He needs it.

ETA: This is where we miss Mike Pratt. He had Barnhart’s ear and was able to push for these kind of things (like when we initially hired Cal and encouraging the hiring to be done by committee).

You’ve literally done it this whole thread.

Again, child at best. And no, I’m not responding to you after this because you’re an attention whore.

He likely going to get another season but Barnhart needs to allow him to hire a GM for roster and NIL management.

He just allowed Stein to do so for football. Bring in Nazr or someone of that experience.

You literally name drop me in half of your posts because you’re obsessed and are trying the “calm down” BS because you can’t handle someone who counters you.

You’re a child at best.

Hell - nobody wants Kentucky to win at everything more than Belle. Would I want her to coach anything ? No.

You literally crashed out in a football thread screaming out schemes to try to prove you deserve what exactly?

But as always. You only show up when a Kentucky team is losing. ULScogg.

Why wouldn’t I want Kentucky teams to win at everything as more than a one sport UK fan? You’re the guy that said Kentucky shouldn’t spend money on Men’s Basketball. :lol:

I don’t care about the time of play. That’s only because of preseason. Nobody is claiming to beat a top 25 UK team for the month you were ranked. St John’s is trash and has gone from #5 to Unranked

North Carolina is currently ranked #12 in the AP. We lost to them by 3.

So you’re still wrong.

St John’s isn’t ranked…… nice try. Congrats on UNC though. 1 out of 4 isn’t bad. Current ranked teams have beat you by a combined 64 points in the 4 ranked teams you have played. That might reach 100 after your 5th ranked game today

You said we’ve been blown out by all the ranked teams we’ve played (St. John’s was Top 25 when we played, hoss). You were wrong.

Now you’re trying to move the goalpost because you said something stupid.

Pretty typical for your ilk.

Eh, Cal still needed to go.

Fair to say Pope may not be the answer. But pretending that Cal should’ve still been in Lexington since he pretty much was mailing it on that contract, is some serious revisionist history.

We clearly didn’t learn anything from when we allowed Michigan State to hit a billion threes.

Turned it off. I’ll start watching again when our coach decides to teach guys how to properly defend the three. I’ve got better things to do with my Saturday afternoon.

I mean Lowe won’t be 100% until he has surgery so it is what it is.

Doesn’t excuse the inability of everybody else not being able to fight through a screen and leaving shooters open on the arc.

Wouldn’t surprise me if they made you pay $25-40 for new movies for a time period too. Disney did that during Covid for Mulan and a couple of other movies.

They will 100% end up doing this like Prime does when it comes out of a theater.

It’s the worst. This whole thing stinks for movie goers.
