New Kentucky head coach Mark Pope was interviewed by Andy Katz earlier this afternoon.
Pope covered a number of topics, including insightful breakdowns of the players on his first UK roster.
Additionally, Pope talked about expectations for the season, saying there’s only one answer.
“There’s only one acceptable answer to that here at Kentucky, and I know that. We have one assignment, and that’s to get number nine,” said Pope. “Everywhere I turn, I see the number nine. That’s all I see, so we’re pretty obsessed with that, and we’re gonna chase it with everything we have, and that’s the standard here.”
“It’s the Mecca of college basketball”
