Another loss. Another one coming on Tuesday.   A loss to Cal on the 1st and BBN will begin to melt down.

[Old School Hound]

I'm melting down two games early. Would someone change the thread title and replace Tennessee with Kentucky?

[Old School Hound]

Some comments from BBN:

1. " No better here than Cal...  "


2. "Strange line up in critical last minutes."


3. "This is an average sec team this year."


4. "I got crushed when I said he was the second coming of Tubby. Super nice guy, will win some big games here and there but ultimately won't win anything of substance. "

5. To lose this game after a week off , really? 

6. "He has some difficult decisions to make. If he keeps letting lazy players sabotage games for us he will only get one contract at Kentucky. It’s up to him. "


7. Pope was awful today, especially in the first half."


8. "Can't even ****ing watch the rest of the games today smh, I hate that I love this ****ing program so much smh."



9. "This game, for the first time, is 100% on his head. He played the wrong guys. He tolerated lazy trash play from them. It’s not okay. Amari should never play again. I’d tell him to find a new team.

Instead, we will get an Instagram video about how much Amari cares. Well, I don’t. Let him show it on the court. Dude hasn’t played a single possession of defense the entire season. He hasn’t passed the ball out of the post more than twice all season. I’m done."






Btw, i just read through about 20 posts from one thread. I'm sure there's a lot more. BBN showing why they are the most mentally unstable fanbase in sport , at any level.

More wisdom from Big Blue Nation:

1. "We got a bunch of nice guys and we got a nice coach and we are getting our butts ripped to shreds by players and a coach who want it more."

2. "We just simply don't have any dogs. We are a finesse team who relies on open shots. We don't have anyone who can create their own shot and our defense is some of the worst I have ever seen. " 

3. " Down 28-23 and after watching a possession giving up 5 offensive rebounds and then Mr Robinson get a wide open back door lay up that doesn’t even hit the rim because he went up soft…
I’m out. "

4. "Totally unprepared. Amazing how nothing improves. Nothing. It’s getting worse. "


 5. "(Pope)has got to change the fact that kids don't plat for the name on the jersey anymore. "

Idk what went down in the 2nd half.  I got aggravated,  went outside,  fired up my little tractor,  and plowed some snow that's still on the driveway!

Up to that point I know exactly what happened.  We absolutely fell apart and collapsed leading up to halftime.  Vandy was hitting everything.  We couldn't buy a basket.  We kept turning the ball over.  Vandy had idk how many steals just before the half.  We couldn't move the ball successfully, even if we were playing a team consisting of Snow White,  Sleeping Beauty, and Mary friggin Poppins! Lol  Vandy took a 14pt lead into the half. 

We know every game in the SEC will be tough.  Congrats to Vandy for getting the win.  I still think we're gonna be alright moving forward.  We'll learn from this and get better

Brea = 5 shots attempted

Robinson = 8 shots attempted


What's wrong with that picture, Mark Pope???


UK = 0 points the last three minutes

Sounds like we fell apart towards the end of the second half to.

I'm going to have stop clicking on UK threads due to the same crazy fool thar couldn't find anything to criticize Cal about after sucking ass for years is now all over Pope halfway through his first season. Mind numbingly idiotic not to mention exhausting.

As for today's game I have never seen a Kentucky team not be able to take care of the basketball like that in my life...

Another bad loss, barely 500 in the conference. Team full of upper class men and same results.

I dont blame Pope, hes getting everything he can out of his players. You could argue with a less talented roster than pervious years.

I hate to say it but enjoy this year, it might be his best.

Yeah, throwing a complete roster together from absolute scratch on very short notice in your first year as HC is the best shot you will ever have to be good. Sheesh, please God make it stop.

Not sure why you continue with name calling but none of those quotes were mine, nor do they necessarily represents my views. I was just pointing out why BBN is the craziest, most pathetic fanbase in sport. I like Pope okay. I am fine with 20-10 records as long as the team entertains me, and they have thus far.  Today's loss was forgotten by me, sooner than Vandy fans rushed the floor. Basketball games aren't important. On to Knoxville and another  L.  Boos will reign down from the rafters of Rupp if this team loses to Cal and sinks to 3-5 in the conference. Pretty much a must win on Feb 1.

[Old School Hound]

From 14 pt. deficit to a 7 pt. lead with eight minutes to go. Then, instead of closing it out you lose by five. How does that happen? Vandy seemed to want it more than Pope's cupcakes down the stretch. We need a couple of bad boys.

You said you don't care and still ranting on Pope. Like I said I'm going to have to stay off of threads you're on. You ruin every thread you are on for me and I'm worn out with your useless takes. If you ever get your meds straight and your psych team lined out I may get to actually read something useful out of you.

Cal sucked for years. He sucks at Arkansas. Everyone is glad he's gone. Nobody wishes he was still here.

I'm just glad Cal's gone. Why don't you go copy and paste in bold some Arkansas quotes after the Worldwide Cal Sucking Tour lost another one at home to go 1-6 in the SEC and all the fans were booing as the clock hit 0:00. Remember last year when you were furious when people criticized Cal (the HOF'er LOL) after years of sucking? Now this is what you do halfway through Pope's 1st season? Hypocrite as always.

Face facts. A good percentage of your fanbase sucks!!!  Also, face more facts. Mark Pope is probably a nice fella(who believes Jesus lives near planet Kolob) but his players are a bunch of cupcakes. We need a couple of dudes who are just a moving pick or an over the back from committing a felony. We need someone to go full Kermit Washington on some people's asses. This soft stuff isn't gonna win any SEC titles. Matt Jones used the term "feathers" to describe  most of these players. You are a reflection of your coach. Mark is sweet and so are our guys. I don't want sweet guys. I want guys who will pound asses into the ground.

I didn't get to watch any of this game, kind of like Alabama game, didn't watch nor see a single highlight and I know I didn't miss anything. Didn't even read the comments on this thread, but all I have to say is that I was really worried about this game, Vanderbilt is just a place I've always hated, and always worried me when Kentucky plays there. Doesn't matter if Vandy is at the bottom of the barrel in the SEC, they always come to play on their home floor.

As for Kentucky? They desperately need a win and to get healthy, unfortunately it doesn't get any easier tomorrow at Knoxville.
