If perry gets the minutes he needs to make it count. Only way to get moved up in the rotation is showing how much of a impact you can be. This would be a big opportunity to showcase.
After Mark beat Gonzaga in Seattle, I believe in whatever he does. Blind belief. He is the best head coach we have had since his mentor Rick Pitino was here.
The thing is, all of our players who get significant minutes are extremely talented and extremely experienced. I believe in Mark and his staff recruiting and I believe in the players we have ready to go.
In my opinion big mike if I was Coach Pope I would use Jaxon Robinson as our point guard. We have enough size down in the paint why not use a 3 guard offense. Robinson looked like the second coming of magic Johnson and Penny hardaway when we played Gonzaga 💯
Gonzaga is tough!! Not saying they are UCLA. Respectfully, they are very far from being that. But they are THE Western Men’s Basketball powerhouse in the current era. It is no shame to fight them very hard in Seattle. I think about how Kentucky got its mascot name. A newspaper reporter many decades ago wrote that the team “…fought like wildcats,” and the name stuck for the school. That is exactly what happened the other night in Seattle. Coach Pope is getting us back to our deepest program winning roots, and I love it!!!
The fact that we only fell one place in the new poll…Mark Pope has turned the national perception around for us. We have come so far since starting the season with a number 23 beside our name.
Typical AP voting. We have a better record and beat them head to head, yet they jumped 5 and we dropped one. Dropping one is reasonable, but we should have stayed at 4 and Duke should have MAYBE jumped 2 spots. The AP writers are crack smoking fools.
We looked the best we've looked all year with Jaxson at the 1, so i have a hard time not feeling like he'll pick up that load.. right? And I'd say Butler will play a few extra minutes.. which is a great thing in my opinion
Sometimes teams can get better when you lose players. In all honestly, we got down by eighteen because the way kerr was running PG in the first half. He plays about 8 mins a half, sure he is good at dishing some it passes, but he does make some impulse decisions. He does have the lowest shot percentage on 2s besides perry and noah, and he only beats our center at 3 point percentage. We do fine without him on the court. Don't get me wrong oh, it's not like I don't like him, but let's be real here. Him being gone is gonna give more opportunities for almonor, brea and garrison to fill in production. That's just how I feel. I love the dudes energy, hope he's back real soon but personally I think we will be just fine.
No way perry plays PG with the SEC coming up. He is waay toslow on D, he would give up 25 & score 6 so with him in we are down 19 in the red. We will do exactly what we did vs zaga. We cannot get in foul trouble anywhere or it will be tough for us to win.... *Pope needs a no mustache policy..smh.

Brea is a great potential replacement player, too, Mike. Good point.

They need to use this situation to get Perry ready to play, because we're sure to need him at some point.

Robinson will play point to an Chandler will probably pick up the time at shooting guard, if not it might be Perry, I guess time will tell.

What up Big Mike... Robinson played point well, I thought. Confidence in himself... Go Cats...
I think Butler will play Wednesday and Jax will get most of the back up minutes with both Chandler and Perry getting minutes
Itll be a mix of perry chandler and jax
You're probably right about that
I think you move Jackson Robinson to guard and insert Garrison
We ain't gonna figure it out, Mike. Coach Pope is gonna figure it out 😉
We dropped to 5 but some how they put DUKE ahead of us , but I could care less as long as we just WIN!! BABY WIN!!!!

Ya i know 😅 dumb. Funny ark not 25 but they been winning games ...crazy !
How long is Lamont Butler out?
Need seat out wed game ..then come back on sat when we play them 👇🏻😅🤣. BBN
We looked the best we've looked all year with Jaxson at the 1, so i have a hard time not feeling like he'll pick up that load.. right? And I'd say Butler will play a few extra minutes.. which is a great thing in my opinion
I think more Brea and Chandler, not sure if Perry is ready defensively.
Defensively, Krissa is mostly a liability....but we need his other skills and presence on the floor.
GO BIG BLUE
All three should play

great my friend
Combination of Robinson, Chandler, Perry, and Noah.
I wasn’t sold on Kerr anyway. Maybe they will be better.
Other teams lost players including Louisville... we're just gonna have to suck it up and play like we play. HOPE IN POPE!
I like Jaxson at the point if we have to he was a mismatch shooting over Nembhard
Give them experience
What are Big Mike's welcome home
BATTLECATS
Perry... or maybe one of them walk-ons 😅
Move jaxson or Oweh to point if needed and shorten rotation from 9 to 8 giving Brea and Ansley or Garrison more minutes freshman isn't the way to go
My wife’s favorite player is Kerr.
Mine2. My wife is brea lol
Put Noah with Robinson and they are a bigger team

*Pope needs a no mustache policy..smh.
Yea its a long shot for sure but crazier things have happened 🤣🤣🤣
@loyalbbnfansshow ur right, but i have faith & i dont think losing Kriisa will effect us too much. Go cats!
Noah at “6.5” I think once he learn to slow his game down in his head and speed up he’ll be the guy
Give Perry some minutes against Colgate to get him ready so he can backup Jaxson
Ya he need get minutes so when he come back next year he can have more more mins ! BBN
I just dont think jax handles are great yet, a good defender would be trouble.
I say jaxson be PG last game he did really good !! And put perry and chandler SG ! ..and hope we play 1-3-1 again that helps are D 😊. BBN 💙🤍🏀🔥🔥🔥
