Pope is an ABSOLUTE Disaster!

[dencat]

Nashville has to be sweating bullets. If Cats play on Thursday, UK attendance will be hurt. My crew won’t go. ?

right now, IMO they will play on wednesday

Don’t want to hear anymore of the Cal stuff. Go find the Hog Central website and follow Cal and the Hogs. 90% of you were NEVER UK fans

Go back to loserville and root for your tards, troll.

This thread is about Coach Mark Pope. Perhaps, you've heard of him. He's the current coach at the University of Kentucky.

No one cares what you do or don't want to hear. You're not god. You ain't the messiah. You ain't the Pope and I ain't catholic.

Great win, tonight.

Happy to see Pope beat Cal's smug, smarmy butt down in arkansas.

Doesn't really change my mind, though.

Is it just me or does Brad look a bit like a serial killer?

Are u accusing me of being a troll? I have been with UK since Cotton Nash. I was at UK during the transition between Coach Rupp and Coach Hall. I actually graduated from UK in 1976. I do know that Mark Pope is the basketball coach at UK and am thrilled that he is. My statement was simple. I am sick and tired of threads bashing him and especially those telling me how great the former coach is and how he was run off etc. I am hoping after tonight all
those who keep spewing will move on. BTW, I don’t care if you like that or not.

Clevenger, best to ignore a couple of posters here. They came over from the old RR forum as did many of us but they were the perpetual haters

I'll be in Nashville on Thursday....sure hope they don't play on Wednesday!

I hate it.

HATE HATE HATE!!!

I wasn't a huge fan of the hire. This was all but predictable. Mitch got scared and panicked.

But once the hire was reality, I want[ed] it to work. I wanted Pope to prove my misgivings to be naught but churlish nonsense.

Alas....

I want Pope to be gently eased out the door. Preferably in about 44 days. The Monday after the SEC Tournament.

I don't believe that will happen. I think he'll get another season. I fear he may get another two seasons.

I think he's in over his head.

Good post! I have to agree. Hiring Pope was a huge question mark. I also had high hopes he would do well. I’ve tried to tell myself things might be different if it wasn’t for all the injuries but I’m not sure it would have made a lot of difference. However, great win against Arkansas! Go Cats!

It was a troll move.

You came on on a thread that mentioned John Calipari not one time and made some ignorant demand about not wanting to hear about Calipari when no one was talking about him.

That is troll behavior. You didn't read the thread and you replied to it stupidly as if you were an Arkansas or Loserville fan. That's troll behavior.

Screw Cal.

And if you give Pope the same pass on losing that you and other gave Cal over the past five years, you are a louisville fan.

Cotton Nash would agree.

I don't believe you. I think you are a Loserville fan until you prove otherwise.

That's what you said. You didn't mention being "sick and tired of threads bashing Pope. You wrote some stupid ish about Cal.

Pope and Cal are two different people.

I can be tired of Pope's losing as much as I was tired of Cal's losing.

I don't care how tired you are of people "bashing" Pope. Don't read it.

You aren't the god of anything. If Pope keeps losing and keeps coaching as if he doesn't have a clue, people are going to complain about it. People are going to "bash" him.

Perpetual haters of losing.
Unlike others who are the perpetual excusers of losing. Rationalizers until the end. We've seen you before.

The people who fall in love with the coaches cult and lose sight of the program.
