I’d also wager he won’t be peddling in those kind of excuses and scapegoating to the low information subset of his fanbase.

          pope's background is superior to tang and gates(nm) - tmcats KSU - 4/12 14:19:37
               Kentucky isn't K-State or Mizzou - McMuffin MU - 4/12 14:43:09
                    the game has changed ... - tmcats KSU - 4/12 14:49:47
                         The good alternative was Cal, which ain't sayin' much....nm - tigertix MU - 4/12 14:58:50
                              Cal was the safe alternative (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 15:59:53

     Good hire. Kentucky will always get recruits & he can coach. - Sigma MU - 4/12 09:54:17
          time is precise in these evaluations ... - tmcats KSU - 4/12 11:48:30
               Coach K & Wright had early struggles but survived & excelled - Sigma MU - 4/12 12:31:10
               none of those are similar to this current situation (nm) - TheWildcat MU - 4/12 11:54:10
                    None of those situations were similar. (nm) - Sigma MU - 4/12 12:29:27
                         Those situations are different (nm) - haeffb MU - 4/12 15:08:49
          I think this is 100% untrue - Your Daddy MU - 4/12 10:18:21
               It's a joke of a hire (nm) - ChinaTiger KC - 4/12 10:40:43
               You are using old concepts to refute new era of winning. F4 - Sigma MU - 4/12 10:27:01
               When was Mark Few at BYU? (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 10:19:51
     This has Kim Anderson written all over it… - Carlos Rossi KC - 4/12 08:53:37
          Does Kentucky have current players and incoming recruits - gaber c. MU - 4/12 12:51:23
               Pope is a real D1 coach with some of the required skill set - FIJItiger MU - 4/12 15:12:02
                    Only skill set you respect is showering impermissible - gaber c. MU - 4/12 17:47:41
          Some truth to this. If Pope had played at say UNC - hou4mu MU - 4/12 12:17:13
          If that's the case, we will overtake Kentucky easily - TheNEWRemoteMan STL - 4/12 10:45:35
          Do you mean Dennis Gates? I'll bet Kentucky isn't 0-19 - alstl MU - 4/12 10:45:35
               And Gates accomplished this at a time he could shape - gaber c. MU - 4/12 13:01:34
          no, this would be a decent hire for just about any school - zounami MU - 4/12 09:18:34
               You couldn't be more wrong. - gaber c. MU - 4/12 13:12:45
               But it is Kentucky. I get his point. They hired a former - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 4/12 09:25:54
                    Oh, it's a shytty hire, no doubt, but nothing ever in D1 - Diamond Dave MU - 4/12 09:36:21
                         Why is it a shytty hire? (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 09:37:02
                              Easy to recruit to, big NIL $, packed arena, - HissingPrigs77 MU - 4/12 09:42:59
                                   Those (3) things are not guaranteed, even at UK. He - Diamond Dave MU - 4/12 10:08:18
                                        Kentucky has a top 5 NIL - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 10:10:47
                                             We'll see. Even lower NIL schools can compete for talent - Diamond Dave MU - 4/12 10:16:08
                                                  My only concern is the Kentucky fans. - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 10:18:45
                                   Agree I said something pretty similar - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 09:45:16
                                        What are his biggest accomplishments with elite offenses? (nm) - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 4/12 11:24:01
                                             He’s constantly outproducing both budget and resources - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 11:32:58
                                                  Sure, Dave Rose before him in his 14 seasons had 11 - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 4/12 11:53:46
                                                       He had 1 era that compared to Pope - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 11:58:04
                                                            That is just not true. After Fredette left - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 4/12 12:02:32
                                                                 Before and after Jimmer BYU wasn’t a top 20 KenPom team - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 12:06:16
                                                                      Well, I never said they were in the top half of those - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 4/12 12:34:49
                                                                           I can almost guarantee BYUs budget was way less - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 12:38:56
                                                                                Here are the tournament teams. BYU is covered up - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 4/12 12:49:32
                                                                                     I wonder where that information is coming from - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 12:51:56
                                                                                          According the article... - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 4/12 13:03:13
                              it being their 4th choice (at least) and it being someone - TigerA MU - 4/12 09:39:02
                                   Their top choices weren’t realistic (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 09:40:21
                    Duke did the same 2 years ago. - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 09:36:10
                         Not quite the same thing. Davis has been a coach - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 4/12 11:28:53
                              True Pope has been a success HC - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 11:34:25
                                   Well, I guess Kim Anderson had a superior resume than - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 4/12 11:43:10
                                        No. A guy that had been out of D1 basketball - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 11:52:24
                                             Keep those goal posts moving I guess. We will see. - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 4/12 11:58:22
                                                  It’s only underwhelming because they thought - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 12:04:38
                                                       you originally stated that having head coaching experience - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 4/12 12:15:53
                                                            High school and D2 experience is not the same - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 12:24:40
                                                                 I agree with the D2 approach like McCollum is taking, but I - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 4/12 12:44:31
                                                                      You can definitely win by promoting an assistant - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 12:49:38
                                                                           We wil just have to agree to disagree on whether Pope's - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 4/12 13:01:18
                                                                                I think that’s where the mistake is. - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 13:04:33
                                                                                     Other than Drew and Hurley, who else did they reach - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 4/12 13:14:25
                                                                                          They reached out to Billy Donovan - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 13:18:08
                    no, the KA hire was a 0/10... This is more like a 2 or 3 (nm) - zounami MU - 4/12 09:26:44
          Not even close.(nm) - Diamond Dave MU - 4/12 09:13:41
          The distance between those candidates is vast(nm) - FIJItiger MU - 4/12 08:57:44
               The distance between the schools that hired each is - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 4/12 09:26:45
                    It is now, it wasn’t when we hired Kim(nm) - FIJItiger MU - 4/12 09:46:23
                    not on the same scale (nm) - zounami MU - 4/12 09:28:12
          Well it's not that bad. (nm) - TheWildcat MU - 4/12 08:55:58
     Is BYU in the Big12, I can’t keep track of their members - FIJItiger MU - 4/12 08:39:07
          Lmao. (nm) - TheWildcat MU - 4/12 08:54:24
     Their fans are not happy (nm) - TheWildcat MU - 4/12 08:35:28
          Understatement - Lakers_Ball UK - 4/12 08:51:58
               Your fanbase showed that the grass isn't always greener. - TheWildcat MU - 4/12 08:55:05
                    For me, it's not a Cal vs Pope thing. - Lakers_Ball UK - 4/12 09:04:35
                         Interesting that we use the year covid cancelled - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 09:48:26
                              So don't use that year. Sheesh man. - Lakers_Ball UK - 4/12 09:50:08

                                             He’s already a really good coach. - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 10:57:22
                                                  "Really good coach"? - Lakers_Ball UK - 4/12 12:25:08
                                                       3 top 20 KenPom finishes in 5 years. Better finishes than - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 12:30:34
                                                            Do you hold the other five seasons... - Lakers_Ball UK - 4/12 12:39:51
                                                                 I understand that Kentucky fans think that - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 12:47:00
                                                                      See, that's the issue with all of your responses. - Lakers_Ball UK - 4/12 12:53:25
                                                                           I think no matter who the hire was you wilder going to be - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 13:00:58
                                                                                That's innacurate. - Lakers_Ball UK - 4/12 13:16:41
                                                                                     He’s a top 2-3 offensive coach in college basketball - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 13:21:49
                                                                                          So, right. - Lakers_Ball UK - 4/12 13:30:17
                                                                                               Here’s what another coach had to say about him. - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 13:33:03
                                                                                                    You ever heard another coach say... - Lakers_Ball UK - 4/12 13:39:31
                                                                                                         That interesting. Thats 4 different coaches I have quoted - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 13:46:20
                                                                                                              why do you consistently do this when you know you're wrong? - phrejd KC - 4/12 13:59:00
                                                                                                                   What was I wrong about? (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 14:01:55

                                             That's also innacurate. - Lakers_Ball UK - 4/12 13:19:01
                                                  So the reporting is inaccurate - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/12 13:23:12
