I think Pope wants depth pieces but obviously is not going to tell those guys that.

Not as stars, but those guys can be effective role players to their other studs

Right, but do you think they really want that? If the NIL money is much better

Every high school recruit thinks he is going to be the man. Role player status

Chandler and maybe robinson(as a role player) might be the exception to that

Two thirds of the team just sat on the bench and cheered occasionally and never

Tough to say. I think Khalifa & Chandler could work out great for Pope.

You think Hall wants a smaller role?

At UK? Yeah, I'd potentially be or that if I were him.

BYU finished higher than Kentucky last season. I think we get that Kentucky has

I'm not sure BYU finished high. They were unranked and unsuccessful in the

Not the greatest argument. Connecticut beat Purdue without stopping Edey.

Think at this point signing any BYU players is to get something positive going hoping to springboard to other

So you think fans, boosters, etc. have adjusted their expectations?

No, but part of the problem was that they filled the roster with a bunch of

On balance, alot of the Elite 8 teams had a bunch of steady upperclassmen

Aly could be a good situational player for UK if surrounded by elite shooters

He needs guys on the practice squad to teach his system to the rest

He needs knee surgery, won’t be anything till gets that. Not next year

Sorry, wrong guy--I mean't Robinson.

With Pope gone along with perhaps several players, there is a lot more risk

Well... Pope already won AT Kansas and against Baylor and Gonzaga (different

I can imagine it, and I believe our players could make a run in March.

Chandler would be a star at BYU, Pope could make him a nobody at UK

fan32

Apr 17, 1:57pm

Yeah, if our guys go there and start, Pope is not doing his job right.
