If you don’t love the energy from Mark Pope at this point, I am not sure what to tell you.
The newest head coach of the Kentucky Wildcats has made it clear numerous times he is incredibly passionate for Big Blue Nation and getting the best players he can as well.
Pope went the extra mile, literally, to get Andrew Carr to Lexington after Carr’s family missed their flight to Bluegrass Airport.
The family ended up in Nashville, and Pope drove himself down and picked them up in his own car. That is a pretty awesome thing to do.
Most recently, he waited at an airport in Utah for his newest Wildcat, Collin Chandler, who arrived back home after his two-year mission.
Chandler was a top-40 recruit after being named The 2022 Utah Gatorade Player of the Year. He has the potential to be a stud in Lexington after flipping from BYU to Kentucky after the Pope hire.
The passion that Pope has for his players is already showing, and you love to see it!
