@cragarhawk Me too....lol. I have buds who root for other teams on college bb websites, and they laugh their ass off at Ku fans wanting to get rid of the best coach we've ever had.
@cragarhawk Well, we put up 85 against them last year in Lawrence.
@Bwag I think we look like 2008. The ball just zips around, and gets in the right spot. Maybe I am mistaken, but I don't ever remember Baylor coming out of their zone to a m2m...ever. Holy cow, remember how we would struggle with zones in the past?
@wissoxfan83 You and I remember when it was a big deal to make the NCAA. I assume you remember the Ted Owens years back in the day, when K-State and Misery were both better programs at that time. So, some of these youngins have grown up spoiled on our success over the years. I'm not worried about it - this looks like a national championship team this year. Imagine how ridiculous they will look by the end of the year...lol.
@wissoxfan83 No, not him. He was funny. It was this guy:
Jaston Archie 3 days, 6 hours ago
"Self will always be secure as long as KU fans bow down and kiss his feet. The fact remains that the players Self plays can not and will not make it to the Final Four. They can however win the Big 12 again and preserve Self's "impressive" streak, but will once again get beat before the Final Four and maybe before the Sweet 16. At the highest level of competition, Graham gets exposed, and the frontcourt does as well. Brannen Greene, Diallo and Bragg need to be on the floor. Why does he recruit one and done type players when he only values experience? Why spend over $100,000 to "free Diallo" just to lock him up again on the bench? Did he tell Bragg and Diallo during the recruiting process that if they came to KU he would sink their draft status and force them to come back for a 2nd year and thereby cover up his failed recruiting this year? Those 2 players would start at any other team in the country, UK, UNC and Duke included. #FireBillSelf"
It made me so mad, I almost broke down and registered on kusports...lol.
@Bwag Very true.
@Bwag one is too many...
@brooksmd True that..
@cragarhawk yep....
Sooooo....I figure this will quiet down the pooh slinging monkeys on kusports who want Coach Self fired...lol.
I'd say we look pretty good...lololol...
@Second-Prize Is your name Jaston Archie by chance...????? LOL...
9th commercial in a row
@KUSTEVE I have the boxscore up..
Wayne - 5
Ellis- 2
DG- 6
13-3...
@wissoxfan83 no kidding...
GRAHAM - 6 POINTS ELLIS - 2 POINTS...
WE'RE AHEAD 8-1....CBS SUCKS ...
@wissoxfan83 They are advertising that KU is on their website, but it's not. We have to wait for Barnes to lose again before we get to watch real basketball.
Tech wins by 8 over the Tea Sippers.
@KansasComet Playing two point guards has changed our whole offense. This is the best offense I've seen since 2008. Everyone is stressing over who is playing the 5, and I am coming to the conclusion that with this new offense, it's not as big an issue as it would've been in years past. So far, we have played two teams ( Vandy/ Anteaters ) that were much taller than us, and we honestly didn't bat an eye. Plus, I think our team is alot more fun to watch playing fast.
The Bear hunt starts at 4PM Eastern today. Don't be late...
@pa_grape Welcome aboard. I never know what to make of what Bill does, but I'm looking at the bottom line so far, and it looks real good. I would think he would want to play both Diallo and Bragg at every opportunity ... every 15 point lead, put 'em in. Maybe it's simply team chemistry, team pecking order ....i really don't know. Is it he's wanting to have those two back next year???? If they did both come back, we would be the runaway favorites for the national championship next year.
@jayhawk-007 That's as good as stuff as I've read all year. Just a great post..
@BeddieKU23 I watched that game, and in all fairness, that weak zone of Penn St should get lots of credit for Stone's outburst.
@DoubleDD I hope there is a way to work in all three freshmen more, but I have to say I was damned proud of the way Mick and LL played against the Cal Redwoods. I wasn't for the C-5 at first, but game after game, I have to admit it's growing on me. The results have been really astonishing. I still think having two point guards in the game, driving...dishing etc has had a much bigger impact on the team than whoever is manning the 5.
@Texas-Hawk-10 @wrwlumpy" I don’t think you can really say someone is from a place if they weren’t born there or lived a significant portion of their lives there or have some othere significant attachment to a place. Just my opinion."

No smartest guy in the room here..Just your opinion, right? Maybe you could write him a guide he could follow next time.
@wrwlumpy You might want to fact check some of your famous people from Waco. Jessica Simpson isn’t from Waco, she was born in Abilene and raised in Dallas. I don’t know if the picture next is supposed to be focused on Ted Nugent or Sarah Palin, but neither are from Waco.
Ok, so now he is required to explain to you every picture he posts because " you know Texas". No arrogance here. I try my best to avoid allowing your massive ego to annoy me, but unfortunately, I wasn't as successful this time. I am done responding, as I know this will fall on deaf ears.
@wrwlumpy I was objecting to a litmus test who you include on your lists, Lumpy. I know you work a good while to put all this together for us, and didn't agree with the tone expressed. just my opinion, of course.
@Texas-Hawk-10 Well, then why don't you start posting 50 pictures every game if you don't like the way he does it? I value everything he does for this board. Obviously you don't.
@jaybate-1.0 That was LL's best game, imo.
Marmaduke goes out. I guess we're not ants...
@Crimsonorblue22 they won't look good when you see them...
BOOYAH...Mr SELDEN >>>>>>
@nwhawkfan It's ok for us to look past opponents, as long as the team doesn't
BG, the driving machine?!?!
@jaybate-1.0 lol...
@Crimsonorblue22 they get a loss whether dw is there or not...
It will be nice when we play OU...number 1 vs. number 2....
Sparty was getting their ass kicked by Iowa tonigght
@brooksmd i'll break down and add espnu to sling tv...this is ridiculous
watching espn3 is like watching a charlie chaplin movie, and i've got 75 mbs speed, which should be plenty fast enough to watch the damn game
Perry - 1 point. Wayne - 2 points. Any questions?
hate espn 3
@brooksmd if i have to...
@Crimsonorblue22 hey, do you have a link to the game
I'm nervous about this game. I certainly hope Marmaduke doesn't step on Devonte like Josh Smith did last year.
@HighEliteMajor People were calling for him to be fired after we lost to Sparty. Just sayin...
I hope OU comes in 0-1. They are our real competition. They beat Nova ( ranked number 5 at the time) by 23. They are very good. Still, they lack that great defensive core, which has allowed us to beat them.
@nuleafjhawk That's a scurrilous charge, imo.
