"I get to coach at Kentucky because of what those kids (Louisville players) did for me". Man, this guys heart. I'd love to sit down and just hang out with him.
Mark Pope is the perfect coach for Kentucky. In my time watching Kentucky Men’s Basketball (32 years) I have never seen another coach hired who is so perfect for the job.
Love from Mancera Perú. Happy Holidays to Don, your mom and to your family and to our Cats. Pope is our lifetime coach. 20 years 4 titles. 86-66 UK wins in The Best Venue in The World Madison Square Garden.
So what I got from that comment is that Coach Pope is "Team Stand", not "Team sit on your hands". People should Stand up and be loud! If you want to sit, stay at home. 🤷♂️
Coach - I know you're working tirelessly. Please take a moment to shop for Christmas. You have four daughters and a wife. And - while you could give me a UK practice jersey, shorts, and towel and I would probably either wear them daily or have them framed and display them in my office, I'm not sure that will fly in the Pope home.
Wait, you can give injury updates on your players? With specifics, details, and hopeful timelines? Not just "ehhh, we don't know, the MRI didn't show anything, he will get back when he gets back."
I’ve liked our coach more every day for idk how long now
250 days and counting (April 12th, 2024)

I can't believe UK basketball was in the doldrums for so long. It's an amazing turnaround!
Love Mark Pope. We are so blessed to have him as our coach❤❤❤
i love mark pope so much . such a positive change from our old guy….
So intelligent and has a clear understanding of what he wants do and how he wants the guys to play.
I don't know for sure if we can make it to the final 4 but, our coach and team believes we can and that's what matters!
“I grew up as a Celtics and Lakers fan.” YES!! Larry and Magic were both so great to watch play basketball.
First for LAMONT BUTLER, THE BEST PG IN THE COUNTRY
I had know idea what level of a great person he really is.
He really is the best! He gets what is important.
Pope and this team deserve a raucous crowd every game, no reason Rupp shouldn't be one of the loudest places to play at

This coach has learned that True meaning behind Christmas and it's sure ain't shopping for gifts 😢😢

Dont rush the players with injuries.... it could bother them all yr if you do
Please provide the questioner a microphone, go cats!
I’m not watching anymore press conferences till you start getting a mic of the folks asking questions. So damn ridiculous.
