LJ Cryer out for Baylor which is a big loss. He is their leading scorer

Flagler is warming up

So how many minutes does Joe see the floor today? - better be double degit

Really, really need this W. Ochai better come back hot.

gonna be interesting how effective he is.I wouldn't think he is fully restored 90 %

Big 12 refs really are the worst. So obvious goaltend in West Virginia game

@jayballer67

Self did say he hasn't been as good in practice since the game but definitely notices a change in him since playing. Could mean nothing

@BeddieKU23 said in Baylor Game Thread:

And every call is showboating. Like just make the call. Don’t make yourself the center of attention.

A win would be a nice surprise.

@BShark

They don't have their leading scorer fyi

This game will eat into ours significantly at this pace.

@BeddieKU23 Yeah, Tech was missing some pieces when they beat us too. I don't have a ton of confidence in this team against great teams.

The replay rules need to change just for the simple incompetence of these guys

@BShark

That was a road game where we also had things going on. But I get it. This game means more then the tech one

@BeddieKU23 Would be a huge win. Haven't lost back to back games in Lawrence for a loooong time.

@BShark

I think that streak continues. We gotta hold serve

Would create a 2 game difference in the standings too. Huge game

Good thing tip isn't for 10 minutes. This is a slog fest

Bryson Williams is human against every team not named KU

Let's go #Jayhawks ❤💙

Need to hold our home court and get the win.

At least we don't have Higgins. He did the OSU game🙌

Dave needs to show up. I definitely worry Och will be rusty today

Wow what a timeoutfest

Espn news we are on now

Bad start for cb

Agbaji misses 30 footer

And he's back

WVU has 21 points in the 2nd half at home...

Sweet pass

@DCHawker no sherman

Foul

Absurd a game in the 60s goes over by 15 minutes

Just make a layup

killing them on the boards

2 fouls none called

Sweet

CB glad to have Och back

Big play!!!

Playing in transition after a defensive rebound >>>>

Och that was a big TIME PASS

@BShark love it! My kind of bb

@BShark honestly the only thing this team does at an elite level. But it is ELITE

Get out and run let’s go!!!!
Boys came to play and the D is guarding today

We gotta win they are missing their leading score can’t lose today

Bill is gonna beat Drew down like it’s 2016. Throwback game.

@approxinfinity Hope so

@approxinfinity said in Baylor Game Thread:

Not if he keeps having the guys try to throw it into Dave...

@Kcmatt7 we rebound

@Kcmatt7 Self needs to channel his inner Roy!!!

🙌🙌🙌🙌

Self does self well!

PUNISH THEM

I'm ❤ing it!!💪

Uh OH - A Phog Warning

Hawt start.

People thought Scotty had turned some kind of coaching corner when he really just had overwhelming talent last year.

Baylor was lucky to make that first shot. Nothing else even close so far

I think the guys are pumped up. What ya think?

Dave has 5 RBDs already

Remember when we got off to fast starts so much early this year? Nice to get back to that.

@BShark

Butler was a killer man

@tundrahok back at ya!❤️💙

@Crimsonorblue22 said in Baylor Game Thread:

@Kcmatt7 we rebound

Doing well on the boards early

We are a much better offensive team with many fewer turnovers when we don't run plays for Dave. Spread the floor. Attack the rim. Get open jumpers. Let him focus on getting offensive rebounds and points off put backs and dishes. That's it...

@Kcmatt7 said in Baylor Game Thread:

Wooo love to see it

Women's USA 🏒 beat the Ruskies!!!

spike ball... guess the game is back on ESPN?

@DanR are we now on ESPN 1? Grrr

Yes

last week I watched about 10 minutes of something stupid on ESPNNews before I figured it out

I probably said a few times out Dave just needs to play the Landen Lucas role.

@DanR I’ve done that too many times.

@DanR sslllooooowwww?

That’s what happens when you mute the idiot commentators

Finally, I've been watching the game in Spanish. I don't speak Spanish!

@DanR 🤣😎

Big Dave😇

0 fouls 0 TOs

did good dave show up?

Nice inbound play. Mitch plowed his guy out of the lane. LOL

Early joe pt

@jessejayhawk most importantly, bad Dave didnt

JOE

Confident.

Which he can do pretty effectively if he doesn't have to worry about scoring. And, I don't really mind him taking the 10-12 foot face up jumper when they lay off of him. He can make those, which Landen couldn't...

JOEY

Run run run!

Nice pass!

Vroom vroom

everyone getting in on the party

Up by two TDs

Harris may not score much but he makes plays other guys can’t.

Run it up

Scott Who?

👍😂🤭

BOOYAH

Joe with the deflection.

This defense is NOICE. Makes O easy

What whatt!!!!!

@BeddieKU23 Run em clear out of the state

Joe picked akingo clean - - clean I said

Who says we can’t play Joe and Harris together?

@jessejayhawk

They can walk home

Get out and run Bill it’s time to adopt a new style for your team versus forcing your old 1990’s style!

@Kcmatt7 said in Baylor Game Thread:

Who says we can’t play Joe and Harris together?

And sitting Och to do it!

Very rare we look like the team with 6 guys out there, but we do right now

@Kcmatt7 only idiots lol

Don't like the reference - Chiefs blew a bigger lead than that... ;(

@jessejayhawk

They make snow shoes

@BeddieKU23 he’s gonna be tired based on other athletes first games back pro and college after having it

Hit the throttle

Best start of a game by far

This is a good team playing to its strengths for sure rn

wow

@jessejayhawk

Where I'm from they are too

@BShark 8 is way too low

Iowa St scored 41 today. Ouch

when mitch is hitting that junk, you know things are going well!

We will see how yes does as the 1.

Jalen point forward bringing it up with Harris out...someone suggested that Royce whitesque

Glad he’s getting a real run already today.

Weak late call

@benshawks08 said in Baylor Game Thread:

Glad he’s getting a real run already today.

No choice with Remy out but it would be great to see him seize this chance.

Self just might have figured out these lineups....

Quick trigger Joe....drive you aren’t proven enough shooter right now

Joe suring up the rotation makes us scary.

@BShark said in Baylor Game Thread:

We’ve seen Adam’s and Mitch at the same time.

Jalen you gotta run him off the line there bro

Lmao FLOPPPPP

Two guards produce t.o’s

Apparently Dave is back from the locker room

Dave is limping...

Bullcrap

@DanR said in Baylor Game Thread:

Apparently Dave is back from the locker room

He was on the court when they pointed out he left. Wonder what that was.

@Jethro he was too at ISU and Self said he was banged up

@benshawks08 PEE break?

Hope Joe gets a chance to make a difference in the tourney this year

@BeddieKU23 said in Baylor Game Thread:

Iowa St scored 41 today. Ouch
Texas just blistered them

@Jethro said in Baylor Game Thread:

Dave is limping...

Foot injury that he has had for a bit. Tough, playing through it.

@jessejayhawk 💩

As everyone here knows, I hate our weak side 3 point defense. What other team leaves 3 pt shooters wide open and just watch to see if the shot misses?

I think good Mitch showed up also

Thamba is just big and nothing else

@BeddieKU23 thankfully

That was a weak foul call…

@BeddieKU23 said in Baylor Game Thread:

Thamba is just big and nothing else

Bill would do work with him tho

Missed about 5

Fran is more annoying than usual. I'm surprised he talked about the Kentucky game yet.

J will

Lmao Bill just flexing his coaching prowess all over Drew.

@Kcmatt7 said in Baylor Game Thread:

Lmao Bill just flexing his coaching prowess all over Drew.

As always

joe thinks fast

Great play from Yes

Wilson has gotta figure out that perimeter shot his preparation before shooting couldn't be poorer

7 bench points is outstanding. Very short bench so far.

downtown braun

@BeddieKU23 I’m legitimately shocked how poor his footwork is, and how it didn’t improve over the off-season

MITCH

two stupid three attempts in a row

Encouraging if this lineup is able to defend decent enough

Stop it Yes

Juando!!

Baylor defining the term "flat footed" right now. Wowza

Yeah Baylor has no idea what is happening to them

Omg

@RockChalkinTexas said in Baylor Game Thread:

Stop it Yes

The same thing against ISU. A lot good in that game, but he chucked a few ill advised 3s early in possessions - which didn't come close to going in - same as these...

@Kcmatt7 said in Baylor Game Thread:

Liking these rotations today.

When this team defends, they are unbeatable

Oh my

Up 20. Who would have thought that?

Lobs against Baylor. A tradition unlike any other

All five baylor guys were actually back on d on that lob. Got a great view of Braun's oop. LOL

@BShark why you holding out on us

@DanR said in Baylor Game Thread:

All five baylor guys were actually back on d on that lob. Got a great view of Braun's oop. LOL

I want that poster!!

Ochai 6, Dave and Harris still 0.

We're actually shooting poorly on jumpers, but making almost everything around the rim, which is certainly a change for the better...

@stoptheflop said in Baylor Game Thread:

Ochai 6, Dave and Harris still 0.

15 in our hearts

KU 23 rbs; BU 14

How was that a foul on mitch? He was literally leaning backwards

Mitch just got his bell rung

Fouled him with his face.

Bad call

@DanR said in Baylor Game Thread:

Took an elbow to the face that should get reviewed

Get David back in thx

Keep the pedal down guys

So many lucky bounces that trip down the floor.

Jalen you gotta make that

Kendall brown looks like a klutz today

@approxinfinity said in Baylor Game Thread:

Kendall brown looks like a klutz today

Nervous to play against his dream school.

@BeddieKU23 I hope someone tells him that if he can make that shot at 50% and just comes back next season he would work his way I to the draft. Because it’s true

KJ time

Pooooop call

Good job, Dave!

Good Dave

Matador defense by Jalen there...

Getting slower

Dave's face hurts.

We found our mojo….. Mo’ Joe!

I am once again asking for a Bill Self 1/4 zip

@DCHawker said in Baylor Game Thread:

To be expected.

@FarmerJayhawk said in Baylor Game Thread:

Got about 10 I need

Need a bucket here

Is it some matter of pride or something that our guys never "sell" it when they get popped in the face by an elbow? I can think of about five times this year there should have been some reviews, but our guys just shrug it off.

@FarmerJayhawk said in Baylor Game Thread:

I do not understand how there isn’t a Bill Self line of pullovers marked up an additional 25%

just how bill drew it up during the timeout

Get the ball out of Juan’s hands end of half Bill

@DanR said in Baylor Game Thread:

Dave was open on the roll just couldn’t get it to him.

Limped to the finish and still up 19.

Had to show Tucky- now we get a half with ESPN licking the Rat's butt

Yeah there def is a difference between Dajuan in the run of play vs Dajuan against a a set defense end of half @kuballin10 would have liked to see Joe there

@BShark that was a definite recruiting whiff

21 points against is some solid d!

Okay. So I suggest we not do our usual thing where we piss down our pants the first 8 minutes of the 2nd half.

@approxinfinity Joe had the lob to Dave earlier Dave just missed it

Joe needs to drive more than he shoots he’s got the worst shooting percentage I’m sure if any ku player it’s brutal

@Kcmatt7 said in Baylor Game Thread:

Okay. So I suggest we not do our usual thing where we piss down our pants the first 8 minutes of the 2nd half.

Usually more like 9 minutes, but I agree, let's not do that today please

Lowest output for Baylor , - - 1st half - - 2nd half - - doesn't matter

~~Asshole in slow mo~~ coach k walking down a hall

My body is ready to storm Franklin St. tonight

Watching these halftime updates around the country... In a few years, all those black seats are going to yanked out of these fancy dreary arenas and they're going to put in bright blue bleachers like the basketball gods intended.

I'm taking a breath because KU has lost big leads before. Got to come back out with intensity

Did kj touch the floor that half?

@benshawks08 said in Baylor Game Thread:

Did kj touch the floor that half?

Nope

Mitch played pretty decent. But couldn’t remember seeing Adam’s out there.

Loan them mansions

Difference late was rebounding for Baylor. But that was mostly due to missed shots by KU on open ones.

ESPN only shows Mitch and Yesufu off the bench

Up by 18 points. Let's win by 30...

KU needs about 27 to 30 this 2nd half to win

!Screen Shot 2022-02-05 at 5.03.10 PM.png ↗

I don't remember too many points we scored having to actually run offense. We just blitzed them and played off that high in transition plus the defense. Och is clearly not 100% back

Jalen and CB are 11-18 and you could argue they missed 7 good looks. Och Dave and Harris are 3-14

@stoptheflop said in Baylor Game Thread:

ESPN only shows Mitch and Yesufu off the bench

Self is more comfortable with. 7-8 man rotation. Thinking yes is set in the top 7 now. But will be interesting if Remy gets healthy.

Wish Adam’s were in front of Mitch but hard to root against a true blue jayhawk!

@BeddieKU23 said in Baylor Game Thread:

Thamba you don't really have to foul Dave that hard

He was never gonna make it.

Dave's face is having a tough game.

A moving screen on the other team?????

3 on Thamba!

Our rebounding advantage is rapidly disappearing....

Damn

blocked by the rim, LOL Tchcsshhthey

Definitely a foul before the charge. We got a break there...

Can't even make those

Just DO NOT throw a pass to Dave....

The Baylor bitches...

That other guy is a better coach

🤦‍♀️Fran

Och is not a press breaking kind of guy

Och should be given the ball in the back court.

Are you serious guys

Just put him under the bucket at the other end.

@benshawks08 said in Baylor Game Thread:

Och should be given the ball in the back court.

Should NOT!!

Jesus that's a hard foul

@benshawks08 Oh, we knew what you meant

That's what the T did

If Braun gets a pull up game…

Cbs first jumper of his career

CB having a nice day

Ope

Dajuan so weak. Hammer him

Weak foul call.

He was trying not to foul. Doubt he touched him.

Wow weak shit

Things getting Chippy

Cole is there today❤!! He needs to work with David.

Here's drew! Erectile dysfunction commercial

Akinjo has taken more shots than anyone else for BU - and missed them all. Tough to overcome that...

Throwing it to the 6’10 guy against a 5’10 guy #smrthoops

Always thought he was overcompensating to not look like a homer

I guess at about 10:00 bill will put in some subs

Oh my

Wow.

SHOWTIME

Wow that was unreal

Glad Och made that for Wilson's sake

Dajuan has been a little out of control since 4 min to go in first

Thamba plays a physical kinda game that's not fun to watch

Yes Yes Please

Scott has put down the controller. BAYLOR HAS LEFT THE MATCH.

Self drew up that play,LOL

Team effort on the boards today - four with 6 or more...

Yes

Och has 8!

What has happened? Did our old Reverend Mr. Braun come back for a revival?

Akinjo got one of those red brick makers today

Thought he was saying they were going to put him down....

If he stays in, Dave is close to a double double: 9 pts, 8 Rbs. Maybe Drew will get another T

@Zabudda Guess you won't be calling him "Christy" anymore.

Yeah Scott, that T of yours really pumped up the team. Ours.

Mayers been at Baylor a decade

Forgot JCL was on this team until. I just heard the announcer.

Jalen wasn't set again

@Zabudda The Rev Braun has played his ass off today

Sweet shot

Good try there Joe

The soothing sounds of outlandish hyperbole. Dajuan made the greatest play ever. JCL has amazing form. Babble on.

@DanR

17 and 13 is a big deal.

Hurry up and finish 'em off guys. Gotta get back to that breathtaking Olympic curling match.

ok guys so let's play let's be honest game. How many of us in here expected this ? - - -NOT ME LOL

This was the ass kicking we needed. Wow. Time to clear the bench

Many people are saying Teahan > Akinjo

I hope Bill keeps his starters in the entire game. I hope we dunk with 2 seconds left up 40...

I think this team can make some tourney noise

@FarmerJayhawk said in Baylor Game Thread:

Did you see that super dork KSU tweet? Just wondering if this is a callback to that lol.

I know its mop up, but 17 bench points really stands out. Mitch's play stood out today.

Remember how you felt last week? This is the flip side.

Life's funny that way.

@BShark no what?

@Kcmatt7 said in Baylor Game Thread:

When everyone rebounds (especially dave and Wilson) it’s a pretty good team.

Everyone contributed today. Dave only 1-6 from the field, but 7-8 from FT line and 8 RBs. Juan only 1-5 from the field, but 7 assists and 3 steals...

Zach is close to coming back

The one game per year the Dean Dome isn’t a graveyard. I swear they have a minimum age of 70 to buy tickets

@FarmerJayhawk ha nice

Yes ok?

Coleman-Lands has the mid-section of a 40 yr old man. No sit ups or planks for him, I guess.

Lunardi has us as a 3 seed....lmao.

@Crimsonorblue22 it looked like he just collapsed. Fingers crossed

He's a lot tougher than Remy, that should help.

Glad we had mercy on them and put our backup studs in

Get it together on the chant!

I think we got this

Chant is weak. After the crappy overrated chant. Come on kids!!

Need Conner to drain a three at the buzzer for the cherry on top

A BEAR ASS WHUPPIN

Is Clemence out still

We put up 83 on Baylor hitting just 5-20 from 3....

@approxinfinity Coach said he was close to coming back. It's been 4 weeks.

Two up in the loss column in the league. Barring something catastrophic we’re looking fiiiiiine

Two great games in a row. Can we keep it up?

Who's next?

Have a great evening and remember
ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK ❤💙

At Texas, mon

@Crimsonorblue22 I don't care, we'll kick their ass if we keep playing like this

@Crimsonorblue22 at Texas on 2.7.

@jayballer67 Their real fans will be down on 6th street. They don't want to be embassased

KU 52 % -- Baylor 29 % - Baylor 7-27 on three's - -KU I think they said 46 rebounds - -Baylor 37

@FarmerJayhawk Great description for lack of fans!

@FarmerJayhawk Their excuse for so many empty sears

@jessejayhawk NOT when we come to town. Only time I've ever seen it full with more than a 1/3 of us Hawks.

Does 13-5 win the league? Say worst case we lose 4 more times I think 13-5 at worst ties for the lead looking at Tech and Baylor’s remaining schedules

@RockChalkinTexas Where u at in TX?

Post game Bill loves Harris - no surprise always likes the least offensive talented player who tries hard

Side note: Harris was terrific tonight

Joe - not as terrific needs to attack twice as much as he shoots. Defensively was okay but didn’t impact like ISU.

Yesufu is fine

@jessejayhawk 45 miles west of Austin out by Lake Travis. On the other side of Willie's Briarcliff studio and golf course. Across from the Pale Face Ranch boat launch. Beautiful!

@BeddieKU23 said in Baylor Game Thread:

Yesufu is fine

Chicago toughness. Much more of a Bill guard than Remy.

@BeddieKU23 good deal we need him to keep hounding people on D and attacking

He had one drive he gave up bad but otherwise defensively was solid. Would like a 2-3 steals like isu where he’d just strip the ball away but Baylor’s guards are obviously much better than isu’s

@RockChalkinTexas Thanks, daughter lived in Austin several years. Got to know the town a little bit, and learned to hate the traffic. Other than that, really enjoyed Austin.

I just don't see us losing 5. - probably Baylor at Baylor , I just feel we will take Texas probably twice. Sure they beat ISU's ass today BUT ISU has trouble scoring the ball. - -Were done with Tech. - -I think we sweep TCU I think the K/State game won't be as close at the phog let's see who ele , Don't really think Oklahoma will beat us at the Phog . - -Maybe- - -Maybe lose to WV there- - Okie state not beating us at the phog - -I know I'm missing some but thats only 3 losses Texas defense is solid but I don't think it's as strong as Tex's Tech solid

TCU beat lsu we can easily slip up there...they are underrated right now

L’s
at Baylor (unless Bill let’s us fast break again)
At Texas - they are athletic as heck we don’t fair well
At hack Virginia - see our track record

Maybe at tcu

Think we win the rest at home

So it’s 14-4 or 13-5 depending on tcu

That moved our Kenpom D to 30th

Watching post game, pretty cool to see how much these 3, Och, cb, and j will love KU.

@benshawks08 did Fran say that? I was rewinding to see the play? I can't believe he took the time to do that or that Fran threw him under the bus!

This is my biggest issue with Yesufu and why I'm not on board with handing him the keys to the offense. When he's on, he's a great a player, but he's extremely inconsistent. I honestly didn't even realize he played almost half the game today because he completely disappeared out there for long stretches.

Harris is the more consistent player and that's the biggest reason why Self loves him and others like him that maybe don't have as high a ceiling as someone like Yesufu, but consistently play closer to their ceiling on a much more consistent basis as well.

This is the frustration with Dave too because we all know what his ceiling is, but he's also been pretty inconsistent this year as well. Even though Dave didn't shoot well today, I'll still take this Dave every game because he got to the line a bunch today and made his FT's and rebounded with aggression.

KU got 17 and 13 from the 5 spot today, I'll take that every game and this was by far KU's most complete and best game of the season. Just wish they could've kept it over 30 at the end.

@Texas-Hawk-10 I think it was pretty clearly an ass-kicking :)

Could Yesufu be more consistent with consistent minutes? Maybe he just needs volume?

@approxinfinity said in Baylor Game Thread:

Even with volume like he had last year, he's not at that level yet. That's probably the biggest reason he ended up as a mid major recruit, especially coming out of a market as competitive as Chicago is.

Scott Drew is now 6-27 against KU.

Lists of coaches I would like all our opponents to be coached by

Mike Anderson

Anyone feel to add on to this, it's a fluid list.

Bruce Weber, Fran!

@Texas-Hawk-10

Can definitely see what you’re saying. Tools he’s got them but his shot ain’t great and he needs to go shadow Frank for an entire summer. Someone get Frank to Lawrence for the summer and pay him plus expenses to train our guards (best jump I’ve ever seen in a player).

Joe gets his right elbow so far in front of his body he’s like the anti chicken wing jump shooter....needs a tweaking.

He also needs to drive every time with a purpose. Shoot 3 three’s a game and unless you’re 2/3 don’t bother chucking again.

Harris just limits us title wise against athletic teams who also have skill (Auburn, duke, tucky, zags ect).

5 spot was good BECAUSE we didn’t feed the post it was fast break to start and it opened things up to feed the post when Baylor finally got back and we ran controlled half court sets.

Other feeding of the post was from dribble drive and yes, we still had the we are absolutely throwing it into the post possessions but that isn’t how we started the game nor should it ever be ever again.....Bill.

@Kcmatt7 going two guards when the 2nd one is fully healthy and an athletic freak helps.

If Bill used him at tech to just be that annoyance on D think we would be undefeated in big 12.

Where’s @benshawks08 - that dude trusted Self and this team to win the big 12 when I 100% doubted them.

While playing wrong lineups we went 6-1........uk loss with those athletes and then och out really helped force Bill’s hand and reconsider things.

@Jethro he’s a cornball but a good coach.

Watch Our Time on espn it’s a cool view

Our best defensive game of the year. We held them to .078 points per possession.

Metrics like 30 point stompings.

I enjoy the moment but always think about how good are we really. We pick apart everyone which leads to thinking how we want it to be instead of facing reality.
I'm solid with JWill and Dajuan. Dajuan hasn't exploded but he's better and better. JWill is a baller and suspect passer but so are the rest in that regard.
I never know what to expect from The Dave and The Mitch game to game so F***.

Och was getting POY reviews but currently that seems a little much although since the Reverend Mr. Braun (apologies to the Kingston Trio) was hot and then swooned and is coming around to what he was then maybe Och will score 20 plus every game again. They are mostly, and have to be, our rocks.

We are going to beat some good teams in the post season or at least we should. Whatever that means.

I am very concerned about our pinball handling of the ball. It's like WTF guys just grab it already. And let us not forget our fear of making shots from three feet on in.

Overall we are progressing but it is not a smooth progression.

@Zabudda think the post season this year like most will depend on matchups. We can beat good teams but have weaknesses certain types of good teams can exploit.

Ahh, a late night stress-less DVR experience. Love it.
Hey, did anybody hear anything on Joe’s injury? He OK or did his knee explode???

@rockchalkjayhawk

Self said he is fine. Thought Joe got scared by it but didn't think it would be an issue going forward

KU has 8 quad 1 wins now. Tops in nation

Exactly and matchups are a mystery. And this must be why our posts are calling for Yesman and TreyCL to keep getting closer to make matchups impact other teams personnel.

Self likes W's. We want another title or three but this year a deep run gets us IDK.

@BeddieKU23 But that is impossible with those 2 shitty guys starting instead of a guy who had one good game! OMG, HCBS should be fired for all those crappy lineups!!!

Maybe he will have 5 shitty guys starting by the end of the season

@mayjay the best we’ve looked is when he’s figured out the lineups and played one guy that many have clamored for all year......

So for the analysis of Joe impacting this team....
Message board idiots - 1
Self - 0

@BeddieKU23 if we get this fastbreak offense which then opens it up for BiG Dave because we don’t start out every game force feeding him the first 4-5 possessions and get down 10-2.....yeah then Self’s figured out how he should adjust his scheme to fit this team

Self is 21-4 at home vs Top 10 teams. Incredible

@BeddieKU23 he literally is and even against top 10 teams on the road won more than he’s lost by a decent amount.

In season big games, he wins at a clip that I’m 99% is the highest among active coaches.
