@KentuckyMBB 40-0 without Dan Issel!!

[Kentucky Men’s Basketball @KentuckyMBB]

Anyone get 40-0? Let’s see them in the comments.

That was maybe the biggest issue for me at Kentucky.

Should have had a GM plan with two people working together solely on portal plan since November.

One does initial evals and other works on relationships with all the agents.

[Justin Rowland @RowlandRIVALS]

For 15 years you had almost absolute confidence that Kentucky could beat any program, anywhere, for any recruit. Just two years later it's "believe it when I see it."

[Drew Franklin @DrewFranklinKSR]

You can't overpay for Chandler but his 41% three-point shooting will need to be replaced and he made several winning plays late in games for Kentucky. Pope needs to load up the backcourt with talent with several open spots to fill. Give us some booms.

[Terry Brown™️ @TBrown_80]

Folks can call me spoiled or an ungrateful fan all they want. That’s fine. But it doesn’t change the fact that every single UK men’s hoops coach that got at least 3 seasons went to the Elite 8 and won 69% of his games.

That’s facts. That’s 80+ years of hoops history.

[Tyrese Maxey @TyreseMaxey]

Every year during march madness I get sad I didn’t get to play in the tournament…😞

[All Things Kentucky @BBNWonka]

Can’t really bitch about your draw when you are a 7 seed. Maybe next year we can win more basketball games.

[Matt Jones @KySportsRadio]

This is a miserable first half

Kentucky should never be dominated like this at home by anyone

[Bleed Blue Network @BleedBNetwork]

UK is 6-1 When Zel plays over 35 minutes.

[Jeff Drummond @JDrumUK]

Kentucky vs. Reeling Opponents:

UGA (losers of 5 of 6) ... Beat UK
AUB (losers of 5 of 5) ... Beat UK
A&M (losers of 6 of 8) ... ???

[Bleed Blue Network @BleedBNetwork]

These are the games right here that everyone has a problem with Pope with. A game against a team, regardless of injuries isn’t better than you. Get a double digit lead and coach and play your way into getting your ass kicked. It is not the wins and losses it’s how they happen and this CAN NOT happen at Kentucky! Absolutely freaking disgusting and embarrassing

[JD Shelburne @JDSHELBURNE]

On the verge of 11 losses at Kentucky. That makes me sick.

UK should never ever have double digit losses

[Matt Jones @KySportsRadio]

The case for Kentucky Basketball having a GM is very simple

1. College BB is a business and you need someone understanding and handling that business daily

2. Virtually every good program in the country has one except us

The prosecution rests

[Kentucky Update @Update_Kentucky]

Why the fuck was Brandon garrison in on the last play of the game

[Basketball Benny @Kybballking]

So I’m really confused. Recruiting experts say Kentucky won’t pay Stokes. We overpaid for backup guys. Why wouldn’t you pay for a sure fire star? If we don’t get a GM we are done.

[Buddy 🏀😼 @BigBlueBud]

I think a lot of Kentucky fans struggle with Pope’s philosophy about balancing minutes to manage fatigue b/c we played guys for 40 straight minutes for a decade+ and BOY did that work.

Speaking of, Darius Acuff is currently pushing 50 points in 50 minutes on the court for Arky.

[Lane Mills @_lanemills]

Reminder: Kentucky has ZERO commits in the 2026 class.

[Matt Jones @KySportsRadio]

This is a really bad loss for Kentucky. Just can’t lose games like this at home

With the schedule they have ahead, it also puts the possibility of not making the Tournament back in play

[Just Win @dubsack270]

What are we doing? Pope's team are just incapable of burying a team early. He'd rather tinker with the lineup than let his best players cook. Shit gets fckn old.
