Pls keep pressing
We’re such a great passing team that the press is really for our benefit. We struggle when we have to run stuff in the half court
Take care of the ball and we body them
If your only goal is the NBA, UK is tough to beat
If you feel bad about us, UK has one tournament win the last 5 years
ONIONS
See folks this is why you don’t rely on freshmen.

Made almost as many 3s himself this year as KU had on the season 😂
The portal is so crazy now can we get him on a flight to SLC??
@approxinfinity just think of the all time wins record :)
This dude for Oakland is unconscious
Colorado St caught a case of UVA
Tang to SMU? Many people are saying
Alford gonna Alford
Oregon looks terrific
Well done on the bracket names, folks
Cam is having a nice night

@FarmerJayhawk I only read the first 40 paragraphs. Should I continue? I've always been a fan of hers, but this is making me reconsider things.
Lolz. I thought it was really good!
If you all haven't read the ESPN feature on Caitlin Clark, take a few minutes and do. It's incredibly well done. https://www.espn.com/womens-college-basketball/story/_/id/39740282/caitlin-clark-iowa-2024-ncaa-women-basketball-tournament-ready-march ↗
I think we still beat Samford. If Nick played for them we’d all be freaking out 😂
@mayjay said in Bracket chat:
So many are so upset about someone they think quit on the team that they are jumping in to join the crowd totally quitting on him.
This is why I don't play here much. The attacks last year on McCormick were unforgivable...but oh, wow, he's great. Now going after Dujuan and McCullar as if they seduced your sisters.
I am done. Y'all just don't know what being a fan means.
The middle aged dudes with low T dogging on guys who can’t rent a car for cheap yet is always the worst part of college sports

My mama taught me if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say it at all.
Brother I am livid…
Yep I’m gonna sit down with a beer or two and try to move on
My mama taught me if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say it at all.
We'll see what happens here but it seems like McNeeley's camp wants guarantees we won't give in terms of role. Like sorry bud if Furphy comes back and we land a stud wing in the portal you aren't starting

9:55 pm time on TBS. Kind of brutal
8:55 central so that helps but still sheesh
Depth in the tournament is overrated
No Cream Abdul-Jabbar 😭
UNC got a WALK
Is it weird I’d rather play Gonzaga than McNeese
Crazy parity this year. 2 seeds have more losses than any time I can remember
UConn got a brutal draw
I think it’s the right move. As a Bears fan, it’s been awful watching Fields take sack after sack and make all the wrong plays late in games. Something like half of his total turnovers are in the 4th quarter.
Ugh this game blows
OSU taking the interim tag off Diebler
Some absolute bangers on right now
Congrats on the Super Bowl win Clones!
@Texas-Hawk-10 Xavier was always going to start. The only real competition was Tyshawn vs Brady

Was Morningstar recruited over? I dont remember. I remember people bitching about him starting
No, he redshirt the national title season which would've been his sophomore season.
Xavier Henry
Fields to Pittsburgh for a conditional 2025 pick. Caleb come on down!
@nuleafjhawk said in Tourney hopes:
This won't be a popular statement, but it's my honest opinion.
That we are a 4 seed is an abomination ro the game. There is no way we should be higher than a 13 seed.This is an awful college basketball team.
🤨 wut
Roy also recruited with one hand tied behind his back at KU. An extra guy here and there could’ve made a difference
Kesei is one of my favorite players to watch. Just the loosest cannon
@jayballer67 negative, it’s a 4 year deal unless for off court reasons https://informedathlete.com/the-facts-about-guaranteed-multi-year-ncaa-di-scholarships/ ↗

Not sure about this premise who would we keep? We're obligated to keep players aren't we? Self just can't yank a scholarship from Elmarko because he's been a disappointment, right?
If it were something that we could decide whom to keep, would keep all of them. First half of the season muy bueno, 2nd half, mainly tied into injuries, no bueno. Still not our greatest team ever at full strength, but I'd be looking to add a piece so overwhelmed guys like Braun, Timberlake aren't needed except for spare moments.
Well you would never hear that was the reason he would take his scholarship anyways they would find another reason if Staff didn't want him back. Scholarships are on a year by year bases Self wouldn't have to keep him on Scholarship if there was conflict or many reasons they could find not to extend it for the following yr I think.
If you pull a kid's scholarship simply because the player underperformed, that absolutely destroys a coaches reputation in recruiting. In those situations, coaches will always help a player find another school first which is what Self does. It's easier now with the portal, but even if player finds out their scholarship isn't being renewed, that message will get out and spread quickly as well.
In theory, if someone like Elmarko decided to return to KU, and never put his name in the portal, but his scholarship was not renewed, that's a bad look. Also in theory, If Elmarko put his name in the portal and KU fills out their roster, and then Elmarko decided he'd rather return, then he'd be out of luck and it wouldn't be a bad look for KU because everyone did things the proper way and Elmarko would be out of luck on returning which has happened before as well to other players waiting for offers they thought would come, but never did.
I agree completely, basically I was trying to say was that Scholi's are year by year so ANYTHING COULD happen, but agree it would be a pretty bad look on the School's part
P5 schools have 4 year scholarships and have for quite awhile.
@dylans it's wild. Something always seems to go horribly wrong with them going back to the Marty days
So jacked to get Keenan Allen. All the sudden that's a heck of a supporting cast for (likely) Caleb Williams.
The late window got bonkers

@FarmerJayhawk that was big for KSU, they win tonight they maybe in sad face
I think you’re safe
WuShock about to pop Penny’s bubble
A wing that can handle, shoot, and play the 4 is right up there with an elite scoring guard on the shopping list this year. I don’t have total clarity on whether McNeeley is that dude or they want more of a bench sniper role for him (my guess is the latter) but there are always various scenarios that will play out from now until the draft.
