Not sure what Doke was doing there around the rim....could have been a 10 pt. lead...instead they get a break going and get a foul. Big exchange.
I mean TTU fouled probably about 2 or 3 times there lol.

We need to go inside to Doke.
To be fair Doke got the ball the last two possessions. A goaltend went uncalled.
Crimsonorblue22 said:
Can they call to when they don't have possession?
Not to mention it was a jump ball first. Also Udoka was fouled after that. All around failure by the refs.
@Crimsonorblue22 I think he does lol
:joy:
:(

and uh oh...they've shot 10 FTs to our 2! ;-)
Going to need to fire up the conspiracy machine!
@DCHawker Can't rebound at all though.
Self upset about the defense and rebounding. Shocker.
HI MARCUS
Rebounding an issue again arggghhh

Ayton will play

Holy crap.

Take Nova off the #1 seed line!
No way

Crisp passing.
I'm impressed. This is a good TTU defense too.
@wrwlumpy Easily!
Sean Miller says he expects to be vindicated? OK.
Wow, that is tough. Justin Gray goes down for TTU.
@CRH107 The legal teams at UK, MSU etc are obviously just that much better! :joy:
@truehawk93 I'm glad this investigation is now. Even I have my doubts with Sherron, Julian and Arthur. I do believe that Self has layers of separation anyway though. Our recent recruiting would indicate that even if Self had some suspicious things before maybe he is more on the up and up now. One can hope.

Bridges will play today, the university and the NCAA have worked together for the last 24 hours and have deemed his situation not at risk potential retribution. That’s the fastest the NCAA has ever worked for a team not on the east and very interesting to say the least.
UK cleared Knox real quick too. :joy:
It's not just oads getting paid. Loads of players anywhere near the top 100 of the rankings really.
Playing pretty well at WKU.

@BeddieKU23 Good player but I think Keenan Evans being right might be more important.
Markese 35 pts 16 asts in a playoff win.
Quentin Grimes 25 pts 7 reb 6 asts 4 bks 4 stls but in a playoff loss. Wasn't that close either.
Dotson 27 pts in a playoff loss. Was the semi-final game.
LOL
@wissox Ayton told KU he was coming here. Days before he committed to AZ. Sean Miller can suck eggs.
Sean Miller, you are donzo! Completely complicit wow.

Josh Jackson's mother, Apples Jones, told ESPN she never received any money from Andy Miller or Christian Dawkins. "I have never met Andy Miller, and while we had a relationship with Christian, we never took anything from him."
@KUSTEVE And now we go for a live look-in to COLUMBIA MISSOURI.
@Kcmatt7 one of my favorite follows

@BShark So, what's the big dealio? Sounds like Pat "Mizery" Ford is simply muckraking. Just wait until it comes out what Mizery did to get those 5 star recruits to go to Meth U. I mean, they had to be paid to go to that cesspool, imho.
It's not a big deal. As things currently stand I doubt KU has to vacate any wins.
Stuff will come out about Cuonzo and Porter Jr. Bet on it. Cuonzo was dirty has his previous two stops, so why would he quit that at Mizoorah?

@JayHawkFanToo @mayjay All I'm saying is that like Cliff and Diallo there was a ton of smoke around Preston. Whatever the type may be (academic with Diallo, shady stuff with Cliff). Self would have to be really bad at his job (he isn't, btw) to not have a general idea. Then Preston gets to campus, the whole FBI thing leaks. At this point you know the staff is looking extra hard into all players on the team to make damn sure they are eligible. Then Preston gets a suspension for something as small as a curfew violation? I didn't fall off the turnip truck yesterday. :D
@KUSTEVE Right. It came from an agent. KU isn't tied to it.
KUSTEVE said:
@BShark If I'm not mistaken, JJ hadn't yet committed to KU when she took the money, right?
Correct.
Also something else to remember with Apples Jones, she ran an AAU program so that money could have been for just about anything. Probably Josh but who knows.
@mayjay The risk he might not play a game when we signed him. There is a reason that despite his talent the other big boys were not involved.
Kcmatt7 said:
Duke saying no eligibility concerns with Wendell Carter. Lolz. I almost want them to win it all now just to vacate it later.
rofl
@truehawk93 Self knew the risks when Billy was signed and once things were uncovered there was no way he was going to risk playing Preston in the current climate. That's my read on it anyway.
@JayHawkFanToo The free market indicates they are worth more than that. We need to just eliminate OAD. Let the top players that want to get paid go get paid immediately.
mayjay said:
Paying players would make no difference because players can still be tempted by more outside money. They should simply let players have nonexclusive contacts with agents and loans (to be reported to the NCAA) that can be disavowed if said agent doesn't get the player X amount upon leaving school or within a year, say. And pass an actual law providing for criminal penalties for anyone seeking to induce a player or family member to sign a nonreported contract.
Open contracting like that will run the shady characters out quickly.
Pretty great idea.

@BShark I thought Jay was clean. However, his recent success has been unprecedented.
I thought Izzo was clean until last week with the other scandal. Now, this is making a lot of sense. He got tired of being a bad recruiter... His recruiting did pick up a ton lately and I always wondered how. Figured Nike was paying players to go. Now the picture is becoming more clear. His legacy will likely be tarnished. I don't expect him back at MSU next season at this point.
Izzo might just be Pitino mk 2.
BeddieKU23 said:
So we have a date of Feb 1 2016 for the Apples advance of 1,700. He was an unsigned prospect at the time. He did not sign with KU until the spring.
Correct.
Kcmatt7 said:
@BShark link?
It's in the Yahoo story. Also "Villanova coaches" that one doesn't shock me one bit...
So Izzo had dinners with Dawkins and potentially multiple players paid. I really thought he was clean.
