You can see why the players are playing the way they are when the coach is so out of touch with the play on the court!
Thank goodness for Alex Wilkins.💙🏀💪
Pope's comments after the game were tone-deaf insofar as the fan base is concerned. The team didn't need to be ripped a new you-know-what, but the fan base needed to see a coach that is fanatically opposed to that level of play. You can credit NAU one time, not 10 times. Tonight was about UK, not NAU.

Get to work and fix what’s wrong with this team starting with the coach… Then we can have some fun😊

No it wouldn’t! Indiana hasn’t been relevant in years and have had some terrible losses! This would have been a terrible loss but UK has won games in NCAA last 2 seasons! That said it’s gonna be a long year and a change probably is imminent!
We joke about Kentucky Basketball becoming the new Indiana. This loss would have sunk Kentucky deeper than the Hoosiers have been.
This cannot go on for another season.

Coaching malpractice trying to have these guys play man to man! 7 footers can’t guard 6-3, 6-4 guys who can handle the ball. Dribble drive and kick to whoever man helps off for wide open after wide open 3’s! Play to your strengths n go zone🤷🤷
I love Kentucky Basketball so much.
We're only four games in, but this is so hard to watch. Tonight upset me more than Tuesday. Complete discombobulation.
I really hope it gets better.

Pope trying to put a square peg in the round hole. This team can’t play man defense and he continues to force them to do it. Play zone and use your length and it keep 7’0 footers from guarding 6’4 guys🤷🤷🤷
Shocking result. Northern Arizona had been drilled in all 3 games entering tonight. Trending to be a sub-300 team. Kentucky needed heroics to pull that one out.
Vibes aren’t great.

I have no ill-will towards Robbie Avila. This isn't about him. But how can any student athlete in the middle of November suddenly be eligible academically at a school when the semester is nearly over. Is he enrolled at TCU? Was he enrolled at St Louis? None of it makes sense

I love this from Dan Campbell:
“Belief comes from the work that you put in.”
It really is that simple.
Grit.
Work ethic.
Consistency.
You don’t build confidence by talking about the work. You build it by doing the work.
No Deposit. No Return.🔥
Too Bad we couldn’t bottle up the formula from that game, team n Pope to continue on into his 3rd season. That group was so fun to watch!
What has happened since then???

Like this approach! Hope Pope follows this suggestion 😊💙🏀
Three “Fixes” for Kentucky Offensively
1) Either lean into running Zoom Action and do it with PACE or put Moreno on the block and get the ball in the hands of the guards. This lets three good guards play in more space and/off of more ballscreens + gets Moreno more low-post touches (which he needs).
2) Get Momcilovic more mid-post and interior touches. Teams will always try to take him away from 3, some will have more success than others, but there are other ways to utilize him. He is a SCORER. Let him stay involved by playing out of the mid-post.
3) Move Momcilovic to the 4 and start Hawthorne at the 3. Williams is the backup 3, McBride is the backup 4. N’Diaye can rotate in if needed. Hawthorne is good enough on BOTH ends and Momcilovic has actually been decent on the glass.

Just Wow! You can’t make this stuff up.
I asked Tyran Stokes why he kept laughing at Mark Pope Tuesday night. Apparently during his recruitment, Pope had been bamboozled by a prank caller, that stated Stokes was requesting $8,000.00 in Best Buy gift cards.
Pope showed up to the airport with them in a ziplock bag. OOF

That’s a classy guy right there..
Jakobe Thomas said he got a text from Kirk Cousins about No. 8 yesterday, and gave Cousins the number back with no negotiations. “No money needed,” Thomas said. “I just need him to come here and win games. A lot of fans have his jersey anyway, so they could pull him out of the closet and put him back on. So that's all it is. Kirko's got a lot more memories and history in that number than I do, and it's rightfully his. So I just gave it back to his rightful owner.”
