So glad Self and co found Dajuan.
Another bonus from CB.
@BeddieKU23 said in Boowa State Game Thread:
Harris is the best point guard in this damn country and we are the only ones that know
Oh...they'll find out.
I think our defense has been exceptional.
God, I love this team...
good close out, gradey
great feed from Dejuan to KJ to Kev. This is why i watch basketball- what a beautiful play!
BEAUTIFUL
McCullah. Damn it, say his name right!
OMG
JW
WOW
BOOM
Kevin should join Bill in Lawrence and watch the game, imho.

I’m probably forgetting someone, but would Haase be amongst the best KU guys to hire today? Personally I’d rather they looked for the next rising star, but I suppose that could be Jeremy Case in 10 years as well.
Let's get Haase at K-State. After Tang leaves, let's you and me start a hire Haase campaign. Those dumb rednecks won't know any better. We'll go on their boards, and pretend we're real fans.

@Jethro This version is more fun to hate on. It was getting pathetic beating up the little loud mouthed jerk from down the street. Hopefully they hit a growth spurt and can start to hold their own. It’ll be much more satisfying to cut their legs out from under them and watch the waterworks once they think they’re upper echelon. 😝
Disagree. The Liberace period of Silo Tech might have been the single most hilarious event in their history. I miss hearing a coach that sounds like Mr. Bill. Tang is harder to insult, although the weird chicken dance at the end of wins at home is pure Liberacesque.
K-State has made enormous gains this year. No doubt Tang is better than Liberace. Still hate 'em, though.
Bryce Thompson has had a very tough game. 2 of 8 for 4 points, 1 asst. 0 for 4 from the free throw line. You coulda been playing with a pg. You coulda been playing with Juan.
Don't know if this is common knowledge and I just missed it, but Bill won't coach the whole conference tournament.
Guess we won the BOAT RACE- "oh ye of little faith"
somebody got racked...
@KirkIsMyHinrich said in Microwave Joe Game Thread:
I'm glad KJ made that because he probably isn't making the FT
You are legion...
So...who's getting boat raced?
Of course we'll play the Clones next round. This is their Superbowl. Did Joe go in and talk some smack to Stevenson?
I think they should start every B12 game in this tournament with a tribute to the team that made this conference what it is today : Kansas. If we had sucked, all of them would've sucked, too.
We'll win today.
Ricearoni, the SF treat. Hope he has 20.
Q: My wife has 3 apples and I have 6 apples. She gives me 2 apples. How many apples does my wife have?
A: Silly question. Obviously she has 9 apples.
And 3 more coming in the mail from Amazon. We have an entire shelf of dubious products that never get used. Anyone need a 6 pack of grow lights that were intended for additional lighting for plants that don't need direct sunlight? No, we're not growing weed... we're growing indoor house plants ... on the patio. Problem is, these lights hurt the plants instead of helping them. So, for the low price of $69.99, we found that out. And they sit on the shelf.
I should send him some nattokinase. That is a better blood thinner than Plavix.
Bet he gets a stint. As long as the wound in the groin holds up, he should be back tomorrow.
@dylans said in Jim Boeheim's Corpse Retires:
@Jethro I work for mostly holderman Mennonites. They never “swear” but all people swear. It’s an emotional release. They don’t say what we consider swear words (fuck, shit, fart knuckle, or whatever) but they use substitute words - things are terrible bad, or whatever exclamation they use at the moment. It’s just a healthy release to vocalize your displeasure and move on.
If you listened to the Carlin clip - I agree it identifies the quality of your character immediately lol. Over use of swear words is boring, uncreative, and makes you sounds ignorant, immature, quiet frankly dumb.
My 2 cents: I cuss too much, but I have trained myself not to use that language as an every day way of communication. If I drop something on my foot, you better believe colorful language will follow...lol. If I'm casually talking about the weather, then it's a different story. Also, it depends what kind of crowd I'm talking to. If I'm at a bar drinking with my fantasy football buddies, it can get real surly, me included. If I'm in a public forum with no idea of anyone's backgrounds or standards, I don't randomly drop f bombs as a matter of respect to the other people in the group.

Found this:
Why do some people swear all the time?
All of the previous facts apply to people who swear once every while but why are there people who swear and curse all the time?
1) They are charged with negativity all the time: The person who lives in continuous stress, who is angry at the world and the one who is always emotionally distressed will always have extra negative energy that he wants to get rid of and that's why he keeps swearing all the time (see also Living with emotional pain)
2) To get an identity: Some people engage in bad behaviour such as swearing because they want to get a certain identity. Some guys want to appear like bad boys, some women want to appear less fragile while some men want to appear more tough. All of these needs can motivate people to swear and curse believing that such an action can help them meet these goals
3) To protect themselves: The ones who got hurt the most are usually the ones who push people away the most. Some people want to protect themselves from others by keeping a distance. Those people might either become cold, unfriendly, bullies or they can sometimes swear a lot in order to scare people away. (see also The psychology of cold people)
Wisconsin gets beat by Ohio St. Their bubble might've popped.
WVU smacks the hapless Raiders by 16. We got a tough game tomorrow.

I can see giving him the benefit of doubt in the car situation. But the Bernie Fine ordeal should’ve got him fired minimum. In the same boat Poterno and Sandusky at PSU fuck them, may their souls rot and burn in hell.
No reason to drop F bombs. That's a sign you're trying too hard.
Beard will fit in perfectly at Ole Miss. Next rumble he gets into with his GF, he can text Brandon Miller and his posse to bring him the firepower.
Lampkin will be just fine. There are dozens of teams who will take him. Just not here.
This is an event that is 10 to 15 years away. The guy that replaces Self might not be coaching right now.
@drgnslayr said in Big12 strength:
I'm not so sure our schedule with lighten up after a few years. All these teams are being promoted to a better league and it should make a big difference on their ability to recruit.
Like I said before... no school wants to stay at the bottom every year (even KU football)! lol
The schedule changes. No home and home for every team. We might have UCF at home, and that will be the only game we get with them. We'll have 14 teams in the league next year, so it means we will only have home and home with 5 teams at the most. It's still an 18 game conference schedule.
This is the last year of the meat grinder. Adding in UCF, BYU, and Cincy could make things much easier. Houston will be tough, though. Maybe a few of those bubble teams make it next year with the easier sked.
@Texas-Hawk-10 said in Other games:
@Jethro ORU also has a former Jayhawk on tge roster. Isaac McBride who was here for his freshman season and was 2nd Team All-Summitt this season.
I remember him. Small world. This Oral Roberts team is really, really good. Sweet 16 or more good.
I can't believe we got him. Pinch me.

I don’t want a cheater like Tang:
🐦 View Tweet/photo/1He's innocent unless in one of those calls he said, "Are we cool?"
lol
He's dirty, a cheater, and a liar. Any success he has is tainted. He buys players.
Oh wait. That's what THEY say when reminded of our complete dominance.
One angle to explore concerning Tang and COY. He was able to make the biggest numbskull fans in history to stop saying "F KU" every time Sandstorm came on. The Pied Piper has nothing on him.
Ok, watched some Zags/St Marys. Came away not impressed with either. Get a definite mid-major vibe here. On the other hand, ORU is a pretty good team. Love the way they defend, and attack on offense. Pretty good athleticism, and they have a 7+ footer. Definite potential bracket buster. Paul Mills is on the rise.
The answer to the original question : whoever we want.
I have brain dead spots with KU history. It's weird- I remember Larry Brown better than Roy. Maybe with Roy leaving, I must've had a PTSD episode or something.

Jerome Tang. He could be Coach of the Year at two Kansas schools.
