    Nope, I'm not triggered easily. I've been the one trying to politely smooth things over.

    And we really don't know if Oats was or wasn't contacted or if he had interest or if UK doesn't for some reason.
    I would have given it a thumbs up.

    Instead, you had to take an unwarranted little jab by including

    "Saying otherwise is revisionist history"

    And

    "People like to throw around opinions as facts."

    That is where all this stems from.

      Oh. Now that you pointed it out, it's so obvious. I should probably self ban for being so cruel.

      But if those remarks actually set you off to the point of calling me an ass, then I apologize.

        Apology accepted.

        Oh, and I never called you an ass....I said "Don't be one".

            See the turmoil is so bad we are at it here. No need for this. Just step away from this team. They are taking us all down. Lol but not lol. It is a shame how this stuff makes us all lash out at times. Keep your humor with each other. I blame this all on Pope.

              Sorry, that was me. I may not have started it but I definitely overreacted. I usually don't sweat things like that, but I think you're right that we're all really frustrated with this team. I do think that's some pretty good advice you offered (to step away from this team for a while...maybe even longer than I'd like or care to).

                People seem to never read comments and say; "Oh....this is banter and lighthearted joking."

                They almost always go straight to butthurt and being offended on internet forums.

                This is especially so with older folks.

                  I think this team has us all in a bad state of mind, especially after the horrible football season.

                    Well said, my friend, well said. Rather than post something one might regret later, in the heat of disappointment and/or anger, it's much better to wait until one has cooled down.

                      I really hope Pope can turn it around. Maybe just Maybe this type of year is the learning experience he needed. Like anything else, almost have to fail in able learn and improve down the road.

                        Mostly my remark was tongue in cheek, but I have stepped away from watch or listening to live games. I come on here and only ready your all comments during the game and post game watch reaction videos, not highlights, and come on here and comment. Too big of a fan to let it take me all the way down but it has me on the ropes. Heck UK mens sports minus Baseball has me down for several years now.

                          I just ready something on Twitter and not sure if it is true. Reports is JQ is out tomorrow and may be shutting it down for the year to get ready for the NBA draft..


                          I sincerely and I mean sincerely hope this is not true at all.

                          If this is true and not rumor, heads are about to explode in the BBN...

                          Pope's joked and talked about his nightmare's and wanting to do himself in. I know he was joking and trying to make a point but the way the season has gone and now if JQ wants to quit now for his own reasons, Pope may as well and do himself and everyone around it a favor and resign at the end of this year and save face while he can. I know Pope loves Kentucky and will always be a part of something great many years ago but this could turn into a Bobby Knight Indiana situation real quick. He or the fans may never want him back at Kentucky again...

                          He talked about digging in and defying the odds today, hope this JQ stuff is stupid rumor people trying to stir the pot and hopefully somehow this team can still manage to make the NCAA tournament this year...

                            Well it's a good thing there is no political forum and I was thrown out of it and off the site a few years ago anyways lol lol lol...

                            Even so, I am sick of Kentucky basketball losing not only this year, but the last 10 years it seems, it's frustrating.

                            Good news, said to hell with politics as well, I could literally care less, they do what they want to do when they want to do it anyways, always have, aint nobody coming to save us. For many year of my life never cared for it anyways but like many was sucked into all the division and chaos the past years when I reality, i do not and never gave a crap anyways lol lol..

                            Good friend of mine grew up in the Washington area, worked 15 years on Capital hill. Like all of us, we are American first. Like he always told me, at night time both sides are in the same restraunts drinking the same wine eating the same steak lol lol lol lol...

                            Is it somehow possible this Kentucky team this year can somehow go on a crazy winning streak at this point??

                              He's officially out today. I haven't seen anything about him quitting.
