Mark Pope says Kentucky players gathered for hours after Sweet 16 loss

Mark Pope said on his radio show tonight that the entire Kentucky team stayed up until 6 a.m. in a hotel room following their Sweet 16 loss to Tennessee.

Pope said the guys were just telling stories from the season and teasing each other.

“I’ve never seen that on a team before,” Pope added. “It was exactly the right kind of last night for those guys I really thought.”
