Not an Aggie fan.

But leave it to trashy thug Vols to split a guy's face open in baseball.

0-2 and barbeque coming.

Nope.

College sports don't exist any more.

Only minor league pro sports loosely associated with schools.

Once more fans realize what has happened, look for interest to crater.

Nobody cares about minor league sports because the NFL, NBA and MLB exist.

All Arkansas operation owns Mystic Dan

Unlike Pope, John Pelphrey has won an NCAA Tournament game.

KY missed on its chance to hire Pelphrey.

Hired Wish.com Pelphrey instead.

KY Kitties hired Wish dot com John Pelphrey.

Real John Pelphrey has won an NCAA Tournament game as a head coach.

I quit the NFL about 20 years ago for following reasons:

1. Rosters full of mercenaries all about themselves.

2. Teams in cities I don't live near, don't care about and in a few cases have never visited.

College football no longer exists.

College football is now full of mercenaries who play only for themselves.

It's like low-quality NFL only everbody is unrestricted free agent and no salary cap.

Traditions and rivalries thrown out for sake of $$$$.

I already skip a whole lot of "college" football.

The more NFL-ized it becomes, the less I will watch.

College football is dead, but the body is still warm enough for lots of folks to not notice just yet.

I already knew that KY fans are arrogant, delusional, entitled, impatient, unrealistic, and very, extremely, dreadfully impressed with themselves.

So in a sense, I did not learn anything.

I just enjoyed the anger and frustration when it turned out that Blue Blood royalty got turned down by coaches they truly believed they were entitled to merely select.

CANNOT wait to see total meltdown first time Pope loses a game KY fans expect him to win.

Reading a Mark Pope article this morning.

Not only does he have fewer NCAA Tournament wins than John Pelphrey and Stan Heath, he coaches "unorthodox, analytics-driven basketball."

All three-point shooting. No real positions.

Uses weird "wedging" strategy for rebounding.

KY fans will hate him quickly.

The meltdown the first time he loses at home when he's favored to win will be epic.

Cannot wait to watch the disaster unfold.

I want to be 100% clear what I am saying here.

I am NOT saying Mark Pope is no good, or his ideas are bad.

I AM 100% SAYING that spoiled, arrogant KY fans and boosters will never give him a real chance and will run him off at the earliest sign of any sort of trouble.

Because Pope is NOT the Hurley or Drew or Donavan spoiled, arrogant KY fans expected and DEMANDED, and simply not up to their Blue Blood standards, spoiled arrogant fans and boosters will never give him a real chance.
