But UK's dry spell is longer than a couple years. Calipari's teams haven't played really good basketball for a while now. But, as you say, Pope's had one fairly good year, and that's it. Prior to this one he only had the one excellent team that never got to prove it. And he's had a couple of clunkers.

Time will tell. But I'm taking bets right now that Pope's first UK team goes to the 16.
