Hulk Hogan is a lightening rod, and I'm sure that his peers, and those closest to him will have mixed feelings about. Without a shadow of a doubt, Hulk Hogan directly and indirectly put millions of dollars into the pockets of 1000s of wrestlers...

A statement from Gov. Beshear.

@BleedBNetwork We are Indiana now

@DylanBallard_UK Shit in one hand and wish in the other. Pope is in way over his goofy ass head. This season will be worse than the covid team

This is not over. There are a lot of big names left on the board, and you can recover. A few big names. I don’t know if Kentucky can get them or not. It’s just alarming that they are really struggling to close these guys and mismanaging these situations so poorly.

@TristanUda No AD, no GM, Pope hasn't said a word publicly since the Iowa State game. This experiment has turned into a disaster.

While bleak, it’s not over. Kentucky has the money to try and attract Draft entrees and euro options. This offseason goes to show why you have to build teams with retention, HS recruiting, AND the transfer portal. If you rely too heavily on one, you’re at a disadvantage.

@KySportsRadio Next season will be worse than the Covid season.

I am a big believer that you don’t judge the Portal process until it’s over. But Pope has to upgrade the roster significantly in the next couple of weeks

JMI, Mitch Barnhart, and Mark Pope have put the UK men's basketball program on life support. It's a brand new era, and UK is tragically way behind.

Is it possible Pope doesn't understand the assignment at all?

Dear BBN Nation, I would like to thank Coach Pope, the rest of the coaching staff, all the supporting staff and the University of Kentucky as a whole for extending me the opportunity to be a part and take on the journey we embarked throughout the season.. Thanks to everyone that showed me love & support during my time here. All love and nothing but love. 💙 Mo Dioubate #23

On the flip side, Will Stein may flop as a head coach. I doubt it, but maybe the in-game decision-making, the pressure of managing an entire team, and everything that comes with the job ends up being too much. We won’t know until we know, and truthfully, it may take 2–3 seasons to find out if he really has the chops to be a head coach in the SEC. But for right now he’s controlling what he can control. Donors, recruits, transfers, coaches, and families believe in his plan and his vision. Kentucky football was staring at a 2-10 season, maybe worse. Now he has national media talking about his turnaround and a top-10 recruiting class. And he’s doing this because he can do this. People are buying into his message. The same cannot be said about Kentucky basketball right now. Leadership is getting people to believe before they have proof. Right now, Will Stein is doing that. Kentucky basketball is not.

@BarstoolBigCat Some guys in the chat are saying Max might let off the gas with Rico out of the picture, what are your thoughts?

Absolutely not. The Beer Bracket is exactly where Doitche shines. If we did a spring break house but it's just dudes making beer brackets together he'd be a mega star on that show. And maybe we should do that show.

@ChristinaFDTV Bod Beach FTW, sis

@JeffDLowe @rone Rone said that like the arrows were in his chest

No better person to deliver absolutely brutal news than @rone. Perfectly level tone that just keeps you on your toes.

@baseballinpix I love this account

@DanielRPK Lucius Fox

At first I thought Martian Manhunter but he's almost 60 so, probably not

@GarrettLink8 @Espngreeny The Bengals have a horrible track record with taking defensive players with their 1st round picks. They have a scouting department of 4 guys, that's not a joke. Anyone outside of Downs, Bain, Reese etc. would be a reach.

@BTC_lessBadger @Espngreeny Typically picking that high in the 1st round means ur getting a day one starter. It’s really like the 9th pick as well since Fernando going 1 to the raiders. A QB in which the bengals do not need.

Seems to me the most obvious reason #Bengals make this deal is they need Joe Burrow to feel excited about being there, and Dexter Lawrence has a much better chance of doing that this year than anyone they might take at ten.

@KySportsRadio were donnie freeman at

LMPD FOR THE WIN!!!!!

@GarrettLink8 @Espngreeny Could have been a solid young player does not = plug and play immediate starter, which Dexter Lawrence is.

@BTC_lessBadger @Espngreeny Trey actually sacks the quarterback he will have 2-3 good years with Baltimore before the decline. The draft pick could have been a solid young star, instead the Bengals have a DT for 3-4 years before he declines.

@GarrettLink8 @Espngreeny Dexter is 3 years younger than Tre, and still an elite player. Tre is the one trending to regression.

@Espngreeny Could have just resigned Trey and went with a great young player at 10. But sure the aging DT Dexter is a huge hit with Burrow.

@Espngreeny I think it's more the Bengals felt there's a good chance with the 10th spot the key defensive guys they had targeted would be out of the picture. Rather than gambling on a reach, or taking the best guy and not necessarily at a position of need, they traded for a difference maker
