Nobody faults Pope

People are still a little shocked at the misfortune. Pope is a phenomenal coach but there is a reason why Kentucky fans are upset. And the amount of things that had to happen makes it shocking.

How has CB forgot about the golden rule in coaching?

Who cares. We don't have to be happy about it.

Why don't you worry about yourself.

I think you misunderstand here. No surprise.

You think I worried about any of this? Who should be surprised here?

Lol. You worried so little that you just had to come on

It’s a fan board. Don’t conflate worry with fun. Take a step back from the edge.

Again, I think you misunderstand. Not being happy about Pope leaving does not

He also didn’t coach at BYU… what’s your point? Pope is doing it better?

No one is surprised by MP’s choice.

We all understand this from Pope's perspective, it's Kentucky's that's hard.

Agree on Kentucky. They could do better IMO. Every dog has its day right?

I guess if you value quick money over long-term stability, sure

I value $100M over “stability” that will never come close to $100M. Simple math

Atmospheric_Cougar

Apr 11, 10:21pm

To you and me, sure. But we’re talking about a guy who dropped out of med

They aren’t mutually exclusive. Either factor would be reason enough.

Every year there is likely 5 years of pay or more from BYU.

If he has half a brain he would do it. Some people are allergic to making money.

He dropped out of med school to be a basketball coach. Believe it or not, some

$100M is a whole different world vs $10M. This isn’t mutually exclusive…

Atmospheric_Cougar

Apr 11, 10:46pm

Ok well it’s not 100M, it’s 25M. So cool your jets there.

andrewg3

Apr 11, 10:50pm

Oh okay then, who cares about an extra $75,000,000?

Atmospheric_Cougar

Apr 11, 11:00pm

What? I said it’s 25M. 5 mil per year.

andrewg3

Apr 11, 11:04pm

It’s $100M over 8 years. What is Pope making over 8 years at BYU?

Atmospheric_Cougar

Apr 11, 11:09pm

That's how much they were throwing at Hurley, no way Pope is getting that.
