Mark Pope talks coaching staff and roster news on Kentucky Sports Radio 

LET'S GO #BBN 💪💯☝️💙💙

I'm not a Kentucky fan but I hope this works out for you all. Not sure how I feel about it from the outside looking in.

Go Big Blue Great 24-25 season coming up. Where do I get tickets for UK vs ARK?

I wasn’t this excited when Cal got the job. I don’t think I’ve been this excited since coach P days. We really should have won 3 in a row. That injury really hurt us vs Arizona in 97. And Tubby just reaped the benefits of what coach P did. That was coach Ps team. We could’ve won that year without a coach imo. Not to knock Tubby at all. I think Pope is EXACTLY what we needed. Getting back to the Kentucky roots that make our Wildcat family so special. This feels like us fans our really FAMILY again!

Me 2!

He's a young coach gem

Bro I said the same thing. The universe has made this happen in our and coach Popes favor. It was absolutely fate. Love it and him. Go Big Blue

@harveyblevins74 Finally BBN is back, it was a nice ride with Cal being able to watch those top players for years and cause a reckoning within college basketball over the years. This next era has only 1 goal, win a championship. *not put guys in the NBA. Kentucky is more than a hub for the nba

@@indigomarine91Yes! Exactly. I don’t dislike Cal and I wish him the best but a lot of the moves he made felt like he was only about accomplishing his own accolades and not winning championships and hanging banners. There’s never been another program in history to have the type of talent that had the amount of talent and didn’t win championships as the coach Cal era. 1 Championship and we should have at least won 3 to 4 with the talent we had. Just shows you that Cal is a far better recruiter than he is at the X’s and O’s of the game. Pope, is 100% a X’s and O’s coach. Now he has the resources to bring in top talent as well. Sky is the limit. I believe this roster we have so far will be contenders this year. Save the comment!!!

To the T. He’s a breath of fresh air. It feels like we’re a family again and not just fans!

We honestly should’ve won 3 in a row. The injury to DA really hurt us in that title game vs Arizona. And the following season Tubby got to benefit from coach P’s coached team.

This first roster in most cases should be average at best but coach popes roster is shaping up to be a title contender. A defensive force with some great shooters. Just locked in Brandon Garrison. Coach Pope is cooking 🧑‍🍳 right now!!!!

#GOBIGBLUENATION 💪💯☝️💙🔥💙🔥💙

Just locked in Brandon Garrison!!! This first roster could be a championship team and that’s not exaggerating at all. Still more spots to fill but we’re already a defensive force at this point.

That was already scheduled to happen before cal left.

That was happening either way likr that was going to happen with cal still here

Dude that was a press conference lol

He's Calipari's boy not Popes. The only person that's Calipari's that's staying is Travis Perry who would stay at UK even if they hired me.

Good Question

We will need some… not like cal tried to do and build a whole team of them but having 1-3 per year will be essential on bringing home #9

@@bigj921 How many 1 and done freshmen were on UCONN's roster last 2 years?

@@ryannath85like 1-2. Thats what i hope we do in the future , we should get like 1 one and done a year
