A common argument from media and fans alike during Kentucky‘s recent stretch of losing four games out of five and back-to-back to open the month of February revolves around depth. Some of the rotations have been head-scratching with end-of-bench pieces seeing extended run as the Wildcats have dealt with injury issues.

There were a lot of questions after Kentucky’s poor showing at No. 25 Ole Miss on Tuesday night. What can the Wildcats do to turn things around?

The Kentucky Wildcats' back-to-back ugly losses have the vocal portion of the fanbase quickly turning on first-year head coach Mark Pope.

Mark Pope has suffered his worst loss at Kentucky thus far. Pope’s No. 12-ranked Wildcats fell 89-79 at home to Arkansas Saturday afternoon — and it wasn’t an ordinary upset defeat. The contest marked Pope’s first meeting with former Kentucky head coach John Calipari, whom Pope replaced after Calipari left for Arkansas last April.

The Wildcats are beating expectations and playing pretty ball in Year 1, but their new coach's link with the fan base is powering the vibes.

The Kentucky Wildcats are now in a very rough patch of this college basketball season, as they have lost four of their last five games. Now, all of the BBN and the college basketball world are asking the same question: Can this team respond?

Kentucky, which once marched confidently into a new era under Mark Pope, now finds itself at a dead end. The post Crisis Deepens for Mark Pope Even After Encouraging Kentucky Locker Room Reports appeared first on EssentiallySports.
