For those upset with Mark Pope at Kentucky, there are a lot of coaches and teams out that have top draft picks on their roster that actually played. Bill Self Kevin Young, etc... If Mark Pope ever got that type of player, I believe he would go far

@EliJames27 @2hunnitdee @KentuckyNet Some aren't but many are

@2hunnitdee @KentuckyNet College basketball officials aren’t done by conference

This is a clear scandal unfolding in front of us

@OLovesMNSports @BadCallOfficial Kentucky was up at that point and would have put us up another 4 pts at least with momentum

@BadCallOfficial YOU MAKE THE CALL Did it matter or no? Kentucky still lost by 19 points to Iowa State and turned the ball over 20 times. The Kentucky fanbase still believes the refs were the reason they lost

YOU MAKE THE CALL. TECHNICAL OR NO TECHNICAL? The ball is out of bounds off of Iowa State. The Iowa State player intentionally kicks the ball, and it lands in the first row. Should this have been a technical?

Iowa State has never lost a game with Kipp Kissinger officiating Truly unclear why the NCAA consistently assigns the Iowa-raised kid to officiate his hometown team

@KyleTuckerCBB I'll give him a B because he can't help injuries. I do think he needed another pg on roster. The development of players retained I give a f.

Curious where Kentucky fans stand after two years of Mark Pope. Sweet 16 last season, epic first-round win and second-round blowout loss this season. 1) Grade the Pope era so far. 2) What must happen next season to feel confident?

@Hemiszn @ryanhammer09 When you get fouled on every position you are going to turnover the ball

@acebaize @ryanhammer09 20 to 7 turnovers take care of the ball.

Another injury for the Clones, this one to Killyan Toure… hit the ground real hard. They can’t catch a break with the injuries

@Izziamiguchi @ryanhammer09 Technically no those are all holds

@acebaize @ryanhammer09 How are any of these fouls 😂 your allows to touch other players

@Izziamiguchi @ryanhammer09 No foul called

@dandakich @SteinsStuds 10 million was sitting on the bench

$22,000,000 to get smoked by a short handed Iowa St team Amazing!!! #BBN soft

@ryanhammer09 One team is allowed to play physical the other isn't and its very obvious

@acebaize theyre getting called for a good amount of light fouls tbh and idt the refs are missing much if anything tbh

@InumakiMaki23 Kentucky started playing physical and the refs called 5 fouls in 11 seconds

@acebaize not used to seeing real defenses ? /:

@KentuckyNet College GameDay said he wasn't

He’s 100% playing today isn’t he

@JeffMat05630064 @theblockspot You are exactly right, Boozer game is bully ball but it won't work in the NBA. He is undersized for his position in the next level. He is not a future all star but a future bench piece.

@theblockspot Boozer gonna get a GM fired… if you think that guys game translates to the next level then you must have thought Drew Timmes did as well… both are eerily similar offensively… but Drew has a deeper bag and both play below the rim and neither have a 3 ball…

My Updated NBA Mock Draft: 1. AJ Dybantsa 2. Darryn Peterson 3. Cameron Boozer 4. Darius Acuff Jr. 5. Caleb Wilson 6. Kingston Flemings 7. Keaton Wagler 8. Mikel Brown Jr. 9. Nate Ament 10. Labaron Philon Jr. Maybe the best Draft Class of all-time.

@CougarC15 If he actually had back issues, you wouldn't see him playing like he has been in practice.

Okay I’m just going to elaborate on this a bit. I could’ve worded this better and at the time I was pretty upset. But I still believe what I said. I was told not long ago by someone that I trust and knows people in the know, that Mikel was finished for the season no matter what happened and that it was a decision from his party. I have loved watching him play at Louisville and if you asked me for my opinion on him a month ago it would’ve been completely different. But the way he and his party have navigated this “lingering back injury” bullshit and sat out half of the season when he could absolutely play, I have lost all respect for him. I wish him the best in the future but my loyalties don’t lie with players who will use us for a check and national attention to improve their draft stock and then sit out when shit gets real. My loyalty lies with the University of Louisville, and if you don’t like that, so be it.

@twtnotpost @CougarC15 He don't care about Louisville why you care about him. I also heard weeks ago he was good to go and could play. Saw multiple videos of him playing in practice showing no signs of a back injury

@CougarC15 You’re a bitch man. Mikel will have a great NBA career and he’ll do his damndest to make Louisville proud.

@OnTheBayMike @TacosMcGee6675 @DickieV @KentuckyMBB @CycloneMBB @CoachMarkPope Both gone and Kentucky starting pg out too and yes it's the same

@TacosMcGee6675 @DickieV @KentuckyMBB @CycloneMBB @CoachMarkPope They’ve been gone nearly the whole season. Not the same at all

Will the Wildcats @KentuckyMBB take advantage that superstar Joshua Jefferson 6’9 240 of @CycloneMBB 2nd leading scorer & best rebounder will not play due to a ankle injury according to reports?A big break for the Cats to have chance to get to Sweet 16 - bigs must help OWEH .

@ryanhammer09 So much Steph Marbury in his game

Darius Acuff has got the IT factor. Dude is so locked in

@RyanABlack From 1975, not all time

This is the official number in the NCAA's own record book. Here's the explanation:
