What a day, what a night, what a performance, what a celebration. Kentucky pulled off another comeback win to earn the season sweep against Tennessee, and Mark Pope brought his former ’96 teammates to the podium to talk about it.
He’s happy for the win, but he’s happier that the championship text thread won’t have to destroy him after this one.
“Well, it means that our group text is not going to be quite so vile,” Pope joked.
In all seriousness, he’s proud of his Wildcats and he’s proud they were able to put on a show in front of one of the greatest teams in the history of college basketball while wearing their old throwback uniforms.
