I feel so ashamed of my initial reaction Thursday night. I’m embarrassed by it honestly.
@KentuckyBrandon You were ashamed because it’s embarrassing on the national level. It still has to work before that shame goes away.
You shouldn't be. There's a lot to be excited about now but also a lot to be apprehensive about, including the fact that Pope has 0 tournament wins. Your reaction was warranted. We thought we would get a big-name coach with previous high levels of success. That didn't happen. The reactions were justified. But now, we can move forward with excitement over having one of our own who gets us as fans.
@KentuckyBrandon Sometimes we all need to take a chill pill as fans and just relax. Everything doesn’t need to be a knee jerk reaction. It’s what makes our fanbase so great and so bad at the same time.
@KentuckyBrandon Don’t feel bad, most of us had the same reaction.
@KentuckyBrandon Don’t be. Is what it is. It’s a gamble, and we all hope it works out. Now just support it as best as can because he’s our coach and he’s a pretty easy Cat to get behind!
