They ran off a guy who lost to Oakland to hire a guy who lost to Duquesne. He's a decent coach but Kentucky needs more than decent. In this day and age, when the SEC has many other elite coaches and UK just cant sell their blue blood status to recruits because other schools can pay as much or more, I dont see Kentucky being a perennial Top of the SEC team under Pope. The league is just too good. They'll be ok but not what they once were.
