Theiro might as well stay in the portal and transfer. In Popes system the number one thing is you must be able to shoot. Theiro = 31% from three wont work in Popes system. Enjoyed watching him but he wont be back unless he wants to smoke cigars I think he can work on that…especially playing the “4”. He should be able to get himself open for better looks with a likely bigger guy guarding him. I think he has a lot to offer this new team. Same with Burks, I believe in them both. I think both can offer us mismatches in our favor. Agree and it would be a poke in Cal’s eye…Z is only commitment from current UK players

We need coachable skilled players with length that can pass, shoot and defend. In reality, few “5 stars” are head and shoulders better than 4 or even 3 stars.

Sometimes a whole roster of 5 stars cant get past the Oaklands and the St Peters and get manhandled by older 3 stars of Kansas St.
Talent and basketball skills really dont matter if the coach cant walk and chew gum at once.
Calipari took his woke act to Arkansas. Come to find out f%@!ing Calipari did not let Oscar be in a political ad for Kelly Kraft for Gov of Ky and said he liked the Marxist gov in Kentucky.
It was time for that narcissist to leave. He WAY "wore out his welcome" here.

If true, maybe that is why.

Yeah Fiddling, loving Jesus Christ didn't jive with what Calipari was pushing here. For that he can go to Epstein Island with his friend Bill Clinton.
I'm done with him, I'm done with WOKE and I stand with Jesus Christ. Oscar was a GREAT representative here and Calipari could have likely got him to come back....BUT......

The big thing is that we don’t have to be loaded up with McD’s boys and 5 stars now. Pope can actually coach.
Hell it was so bad that about any coach in the country could take no stars and one stars and beat the prior coaches sorry a$$.

Thank you for posting these interesting comments by coaches. It is very encouraging.
We have an intelligent coach now, one who studies film and prepares a solid game plan. Another thing I like about Coach Pope is he is innovative. He is ahead of the curve. His offense is going to throw a lot of coaches off next year. Including the one that quit us.

Feel bad that Oscar had a wasted year at UK like Big Z. I knew Oscar was a great person and a believer. I can see where that would get on the bad side of Donut. Wish he could have played for our real coach. Looking forward to seeing who else Mark brings in for next year. Should be an interesting week or two!

What could have been.

And basically because of the ego of one man - I pray that never happens to Mark - I don't think it will, but I NEVER want to see another coach or player come through UK who thinks they are bigger than the program. When you get an ego like that, you start to have contempt and spite for the fans and the normal folks who make your job possible. I'm glad Mark is grounded in the reality of what it means to be the coach at UK.

However with success comes ego with anyone but I think Mark is way too humble to chsnge him..
