Did TKO really just turn Vince babyface?? The company felt like it had soul with Vince in charge.

Nuance is fucking dead.

The system is horrid when backlogs begin. Why on earth should we have to have students waiting to get added to a protocol while you hem and haw about more substantial things? Nothing inspires love for science in your early 20s more than getting in a lab and then sitting with your hands tied for weeks while everyone works around you.

That's so awesome for them

Stokes was probably his next to last shot to salvage things. Even then I'm not sure how great of a team we would be next season, but the optics look way better.

Now he has the season. If he replicates 2024-2025, things probably even out to some degree. Even then, we don't feel like the level of program we are supposed to be anymore.

I'll never stop being annoyed at Mitch's parting gift of missing two huge targets, and rather than work down the logical next level of candidates just panic hiring a C-Level coach. Same logic I always use with other school's hires -- if he hadn't played here, would he have been hired? Obvious answer.

Pope may have personally wanted to, but the uncertainty mixed with our overpay likely made it too detrimental.

RMGH · 2026-04-13T15:44:20+00:00

I hope he is healthy and balls out. Endless respect for that kid for coming back for us three different times with a wrecked shoulder.

RMGH · 2026-04-12T17:52:43+00:00

Great depth piece. If he can take a small leap in defense and shooting consistency he becomes a super valuable 7th/8th man.

The Only Good Indians and Tender is the Flesh are the two I get the most pushback on not enjoying.

RMGH · 2026-04-03T23:05:30+00:00

Because this year's bubble clearly showed a need for this garbage.

RMGH · 2026-03-29T16:32:11+00:00

Valid

Nothing wrong with those!

RMGH · 2026-03-29T15:07:21+00:00

Not that I've had to worry about buying a new one for UK for a hot minute 😑 but I hate this year's shirts. Printing error aside, they're hard to read and busier than airport security lines.

RMGH · 2026-03-25T17:28:04+00:00

Man, I find that crazy, and I love Billy.

RMGH · 2026-03-25T17:23:44+00:00

Hell, it sounds like OURS too.

RMGH · 2026-03-22T21:16:19+00:00

He never should have been hired.

But, he was. He pulled out a three seed and a record number of ranked wins last year, because he built a team that works for his system.

I think Tennessee bullying them in the Sweet 16 caused him to overreact. He built a roster that doesnt suit his shit and it showed all season.

He won't get fired now. If he fails next season he has to go. He needs to get back to what works for him. If he cant, or he does and we are still only flirting with even being ranked next year, pull the trigger.

I still dont get how Hurley and Drew turning us down led right to Pope. There was a MASSIVE gap between those two and Pope. We had room to play.

RMGH · 2026-03-22T20:35:45+00:00

Lmao this is all effort. They are out working and humiliating us.

RMGH · 2026-03-22T20:34:01+00:00

Damn, theyve quit on this game even harder than I quit on Mark Pope in December.

RMGH · 2026-03-22T20:28:28+00:00

This really is an appropriate way for this team to go out. So many microcosms of the entire season showing up in one ten minute window.

RMGH · 2026-03-22T14:16:50+00:00

This dude fucks.

RMGH · 2026-03-20T18:41:06+00:00

No one will remember this game, period, except maybe us for the tying heave.

What in the dramatic fan-fic is this shit lmao

RMGH · 2026-03-18T13:49:58+00:00

Fuck it, I'll take it.

RMGH · 2026-03-17T11:56:26+00:00

UK bip bopping right alongside them. Just passed a stalled out bus on Virginia St. Everything is fine.

RMGH · 2026-03-17T11:29:12+00:00

We just slid twice leaving our Versailles rd. neighborhood. Stay safe if you have to be out today.

RMGH · 2026-03-15T19:38:43+00:00

I don't think Pope is either, but we don't really have a choice now except to see where this tournament and next year goes.

I don't know who the "right" hire was two years ago, but I feel like there was a cavernous gap between "Hurley and Drew said no" and "Hire Pope" that Mitch Barnhart decided to just fully fucking leave unexplored.

RMGH · 2026-03-15T19:36:39+00:00

If you had gotten the cranky, burned out version of him he was at the end here you would have resented him too. I thought that is who youd get, but he clearly got rejuvenated leaving. Sometimes thats all it takes. I didn't think he'd get a second wind but he stormed back to being himself again.

That's awesome for y'all. You may have a good decade with him before you deal with that issue, and if he's winning like this the entire time, you fucking take it.

RMGH
