Is Mark Pope the right guy for Kentucky? We are joined by Jake Hatch of Locked on Cougars, who's covered Mark Pope throughout his time at BYU. We run through the resume of Mark Pope and find out what he's like when it comes to recruiting, X's and O's, and leading a college basketball team. Is this just a sentimental pick for Kentucky AD Mitch Barnhart?

And more importantly, with Pope having never won a tournament game as a head coach, can he lead Kentucky back to deep tourney runs and ultimately winning a championship? Will the Kentucky boosters back him and help with NIL? The 51-year old Pope will certainly have his work cut out for him in Lexington.
