Hellenic Kitchen by Ilias Pappas This new Mediterranean concept from Greek restaurant owner Ilias Pappas is opening at Park Plaza, next to the library on Main Street and North Limestone.

Milan Momcilovic’s disappearing act against Kansas is a massive tactical failure

The Kentucky Wildcats landed what everyone thought was the best shooter in college basketball, but Mark Pope and Cody Fueger failed to utilize Milan Momcilovic against Kansas. The prevailing thought heading into the season was that even if Momcilovic was not getting shots up, his perimeter gravity would draw enough attention from the defense to open the floor for everyone else.

“Still Waiting for us to Learn”: Kentucky Fans Display Frustration With Mark Pope as Defeat to Kansas Sparks Anger

Kentucky fans are already frustrated with their team, and the season has just begun. Head coach Mark Pope took the brunt of criticism from the Big Blue Nation (BBN) after his team failed to impress in an 89-69 loss to the Kansas Jayhawks, and things could unravel if Kentucky doesn’t get back to winning ways. Tyran Stokes nearly joined Kentucky earlier this year before eventually joining Kansas, and he played an integral role in his team’s win. However, it was Mark Pope’s inability to turn things around that irked fans. “Still waiting for us to learn,” one frustrated Kentucky fan wrote as others joined the criticism of Pope. @DylanBallard_UK Just rambling — Blake (@blakeoverbey3) November 11, 2026 @DylanBallard_UK Kansas kicked us with 2 Freshmen!! — Herbert Blanton (@StockBlanton) November 11, 2026 @DylanBallard_UK LOTS of “learning experiences” these last 7 years or so.

Low temperatures are expected to be in the 20s and 30s in the evenings, and any lingering precipitation from Wednesday’s showers could result in snow flurries Thursday night, particularly in Eastern Kentucky.

“Do They Just Flip a Coin”: Florida Fans Express Frustration as Reported QB Change Looms Ahead of Kentucky Clash

The Florida Gators are reportedly making another quarterback change ahead of Saturday’s matchup against the Kentucky Wildcats. The Gators have suffered back-to-back blowout losses to the Georgia Bulldogs and Oklahoma Sooners. They moved on from Aaron Philo as their starting quarterback following his disastrous performance against the Bulldogs, where he threw for just 26 yards on 5 of 7 attempts and two interceptions. Replacing Philo with Tramell Jones Jr. didn’t produce the result Florida was hoping for, as Jones went 10 of 22 for just 133 yards and threw two interceptions against the Sooners. With an overall record of 5-4, including 3-4 in the conference, the Gators are making another change by bringing Philo back as QB1 against the Wildcats. Florida’s lack of stability at the most important position has left fans frustrated. Here’s how they reacted to the report: “lol do they just flip a coin every week to decide who is starting?” a fan wrote. @On3 lol do they just flip a coin every week to decide who is starting? — Derrick (@chiefsanddawgs) November 12, 2026 “So the way it goes is Philo, Jones, Philo, Jones, Philo it’s embarrassing,” a fan wrote. @On3 So the way it goes

“Needs to Stop Getting Embarrassed”: FOX Analyst Paints Grim Picture for Mark Pope’s Future as Kansas Loss Exposes Problems

The Kentucky Wildcats were beaten 89-69 by the Kansas Jayhawks in the Champions Classic, and the defeat has posed more questions about head coach Mark Pope. The latest to question Pope is FOX Sports analyst Aaron Torres, who made it clear that Pope needs to start winning games or things could go downhill fast. “You know what Kentucky reminded me of vs Kansas: Kentucky, in basically every big game last year. Mark Pope no longer gets the benefit of the doubt. Not only does he need to start winning big games – he needs to stop getting embarrassed constantly,” Torres wrote on X , sharing a clip from his Aaron Torres podcast. “You know what Kentucky reminded me of vs Kansas: Kentucky, in basically every big game last year.
