For those "worried" about Uk's roster next year. There are ALREADY players wanting to commit to UK. Coach Pope isn't ready to take some commitments. He needs some time to explore what players are available and see who the best options are. Don't think there aren't plenty players who want to wear UK and play for coach Pope..... that won't be a problem. He just needs time for his staff to get firmed up and start processing who wants to be here. Then they can choose who they want.
@MeManBoy0 Also there are a good amount of top players waiting to transfer but they can’t enter the portal until their final NIL checks get paid out otherwise they forfeit them.
@MeManBoy0 Have you heard anything about Jordan Burks?
@MeManBoy0 The only issue with doing it that way is players will only wait so long. Risk losing a really good player
@MeManBoy0 I don’t care if UK goes 14-14 like in pitino’s first year. Having players who care first about the jersey will be refreshing. Anyone upset they aren’t seeing a complete roster yet should log off the socials. The guy has been employed by UK less than a week.
@MeManBoy0 Not worried for one second. Coach is benign selective.. which is a great decision
@MeManBoy0 Sounds like the great coach named Kenny Payne!
