I think Pope is so charismatic when it comes to recruiting that sky is the limit for him, but he wouldn’t be given much patience at all. Even him getting to the sweet 16 would be seen as a failure by lots of the fan base. That’s a lot to put on a man’s shoulders who’s never been to the round of 32.
That’s why I expected it to be someone like Drew, Hurley, Jay Wright, etc. Someone who knows they can get to the mountain top because they’ve already done it.
