2020:
BYU 13
UK 29

2021:
BYU 20
UK 49

2022:
BYU 58
UK 6

2023:
BYU 77
UK 27

2024:
BYU 18
UK 23

So yes that's true that 3/5 years they have finished ahead of UK, but over that span, BYU average final KP ranking is 37.2 and UK's is 26.8.

I think there's a reasonable chance Pope ends up as being a good hire, sometimes people figure it out when they have more resources etc.  But there'll be a lot of pressure, a lot of rebuilding to do, and he has no high-level success to point to really.  Certainly to go from Hurley/Drew/Wright/Donovan as your primary targets to getting a dude who's never won a tournament game is something, our fans would riot and we are not UK.

Ooh, got under the trolls skin a bit there.

Anyway, you’re a joke as you’ve been for many years.  You keep up the worst possible takes and I’ll keep laughing at you for them.

No, you haven't. I knew I would set you off contesting your ridiculous comment because that's how you roll.

Again, you are not as smart as you think you are. But you are predictable.

Hahahahaha keep it up man.  It's hilarious watching you flounder.

Very few people here manage to make fools of themselves as consistently as you do.  It's always a good time.

They didn't want Underachiever because his team gave up a big run to the back-to-back champions in the E8, so they picked the dude they'd rather have who's never won a tournament game.  Just absolutely hilarious stuff.

They went to a former player when they struck out with the big guys. They did not go to a John Groce Flavor of the Month Hire, now did they?

Their fan base would have gone far more ballistic if they hired Underwood after what we just saw.

The ones as stupid as you would. 

Every take worse than the one before it.  It's truly a work of art.

KY is really hiring Poles if he was not a former player?

There is zero way KY is hiring Underachiever after that 30-0 run in the EE. Zero.

Good.  I'm glad we aren't in the position of hiring a coach and ending up with somebody like Mark Pope.  That's a positive for this program, which is why idiots and trolls take it as a negative.

They would NEVER have hired the guy who got smoked by the champs in the Elite 8, so instead they hired the guy who was in the same region but got upset again in the first round and has never won a tournament game.  Beautiful.

He's a former KY player that they settled for. Which was the point.

KY is never going to look at Underachiever.

Good.  Our coach has a hell of a lot better resume than the guy they hired.  That's a good thing for us.

Meanwhile, while the bluest of blue blood targeted Hurley/Donovan/Drew/Wright and got Mark Pope, you still think it'd be fine if Underwood left.

I'm sure we'd do better though - how could we do worse than Underachiever after all?  He got smoked by UConn in the Elite 8!

I'm just glad we don't have morons like you running the program.  It's why we're nationally relevant again.

If your history is any indication, this probably means they asked him and he turned them down.

A dude who has the worst take on literally everything.  It's almost impressive.

If it's true, then I'm glad.  We have a better coach than the guy they got.
