Mark Pope believes Kentucky have singed the final full commitment mega star opening….
When La Familia was in action in TBT vs. Herd That, head coach Mark Pope made an appearance to see the team in action inside Rupp Arena.
After coach Pope made his rounds in the arena, he chatted with the TBT broadcast team about the future of the Kentucky Wildcats, and fans will like hearing what he had to say.
Pope has been working towards a massive Year 1 in Lexington, and the new head coach is excited about what the future holds.
“I think we’ve got a chance. We have a ton of work to do, but we have super, super interesting pieces. We have great young men. I’m talking about young men you’d hire to work a high-intensity job. The same guys you’d have come babysit your children. We’ve got some of the best young men in all of college basketball,” Pope stated.
Pope continued sharing his excitement for the team.
“We have the right pieces, but if we can build the connective tissue and synergy, which is a huge challenge in a short amount of time, we have a chance to be what Kentucky expects. That’s our goal,” he said.
Pope also shared the importance of pacing this summer as he implements his unique style of play with his guys.
I know BBN is excited about a new chapter inside Rupp Arena, and Mark Pope is clearly as well.
