@NewBBNMemes Pope whiff incoming for sure

Mark Pope hasn’t given up on recruiting Dink Pate despite Jason Hart leaving. Pope really likes his game

@CBeasmoreSports Just find a pg with a strong, healthy shoulder for the love of god

Jaland Lowe is battling back from his shoulder surgery but says he plans to return to Kentucky next season: “The plan has always been to come back." He’s been helping his teammates by sharing his perspective as a point guard, offering input, and keeping the energy high in the locker room. Lowe is expected to be back healthy around June or July, ready to take the floor for the 2026-27 season. The Wildcats will look forward to having their floor general back leading the team next year. 😼🔥 #BBN

@SteinsStuds Narrator voice: he did not and he was fired in shame after losing in the first round of the NIT

I truly believe Mark Pope will coach a Final Four game next year

@jacetheukfan Ps he’s going to Kansas because pope is a weirdo

@TristanUda @IAMTHESHOOTER1 That’s another big whiff, ring it up

Mark Pope is courtside in New York today to watch Kentucky target Dink Pate in his last regular season game for the Westchester Knicks. Jason Hart who was the main connect to Pate, is now with SMU, but Kentucky is still in pursuit.

@KyTomCat33 Uh duhh… it’s not reading tea leaves when the kid literally says, ‘I prefer to not go to Kentucky’ What are we even doing here?

Reading the tea leaves, with UK looking at more wings, makes me think Stokes to KU is likely.

@EthynEwingSzn @KamWilliamsFN Watch

@KamWilliamsFN @Psoc42 That’s Paul mc Phillips dude. If he tells u something u can bet ur ass it’s legit.

@JDSHELBURNE Shouldn’t be given a year 3, why delay the inevitable

Mark Pope seems to be cleaning house. Good move. Season 3 going to be fun! I’ve got a feeling….

@DarrellBird @KentuckyMBB @CoachMarkPope I’d feel better if he could recruit and there was any hope for next year healthy or not. He’s in over his head and needs to go, I just wish he’d step down to avoid further embarrassment.

Some fans may be up in arms after NCAA Tourney loss, but @KentuckyMBB @CoachMarkPope deserves a full season without injury to show what he can do. 247sports.com/college/kentuc…

@BigBlueCarti Only good part is not going to the sweet 16 didn’t auto extend his contract. Need that buyout as low as possible

Mark Pope in 2 years at Kentucky: 46-26 Overall Record 20-16 SEC Record 3-2 SEC Tournament Record 1 Sweet Sixteen 1 Round of 32 Thoughts?

@BigBlueCarti 💩

@Villefan76 @tarullotweets He has no chance of getting Stokes, dude is playing pope like a fiddle just like every other recruit he’s whiffed on

@tarullotweets Dudes gonna land Stokes and yall gonna be back in love.

Get that man away from my program This is so pathetic

@WildcatsTongue I’m mean they will for sure, but wishful thinking has me hoping the next AD doesn’t settle for this joke of a coach and gets rid of him immediately

Give Mark Pope a fully healthy season next year so we can truly judge him as a coach

@midmajorball They objectively did not, really didn’t expect Santa Clara to be so whiny

The refs screwed Santa Clara.

@barstoolsports And He unequivocally looks like a penis!

“I unequivocally called timeout. But they didn’t grant it.” Did Santa Clara get robbed?

@kwc78 @KySportsRadio Looks like we found Mitch’s burner

@KySportsRadio Nobody gives a shit about Eli or Mitch the fans just want a winning program Basketball, Football or whatever the sport but you’ve made this your main priority. Knucklehead behavior.

FYI…UK formally declined my interview with Eli Capilouto to ask about the decision to add to Mitch Barnhart’s contract upon his stepping down as AD

@PeteThamel Nate lets murderes play, a little weed is nothing

Big news out of Tuscaloosa. Alabama's second leading scorer, Aden Holloway, arrested this morning. The No. 4 seed Crimson Tide play No. 13 Hofstra on Friday in the NCAA tournament.

@CBoxSports Mark Pope! Great fit there

Who should be the next head coach for UC? #Bearcats

@rotobrady @astevenson_12 @KentuckyF34638 He also whiffed on Lendenorg, Pierre, Wilkerson… couldn’t hold onto Acaden or close the deal with Caleb. He’s now losing out on every big recruit this year. He did a good job with limited time in the portal last year, but this years roster construction is awful.

Well did you read it? Because if you have any counterpoints I’d love to hear them. Otherwise you’re just responding with a Billy Madison quote, so I’ll just assume you didn’t read any of it, which would be disappointing but not super surprising because it was long—but kinda has to be. I’m really not looking to be hostile here man, but the things you said in criticism of Pope were just not very well thought out.

Can’t wait for the day Mark Pope is fired.
