Ditto !! WHO cares !! Not me !!

This is NOT Basketball !! it is ALL Meaningless.

I want to read BASKETBALL on what I thought was a Basketball Web-Site. Put all this "TRASH" in a single topic and put it on the BACK Page where we don't have to Crawl Over It!

Please get back to BASKETBALL and our Hawks !! Thank You !!

@nuleafjhawk YES ... I do think Self switches gears in the NCAA playoffs. Maybe, not so much in the early games, but very visible in the later games (elite 8). You can see it in him ... he gets "tensed up," and "amped up," his face gets very 'red' and he does "more yelling," instead of "more coaching." I think these feelings are transferred to the players and we / KU Players are not quite the same players that we saw earlier in the season / B12 playoffs schedule. Perhaps he LOVES his players too much ??

What I see is the normal "up in the corner message" ... '1 out of 38', '2 out of 38', etc. up to and including '30 out of 38' and THEN it JUMPS to '38 out of 38' (skipping all the posts in between).

I do NOT like to see KU Football articles in what I thought was 100% KU Basketball Blog. KU Football takes the "back seat" and it should be discussed / commented about on a different site OR under a SINGLE subject relegated to the bottom of the list.

That's my 2-cents !!

Thank You ... for looking after my 75 year old eyes. Now knowing the size of the font ... I feel better about it now! Perhaps dark letters via a "font change" ... Tahoma, or Ariel. .... Hey ... I'm not complaining and I do appreciate ALL YOU DO !!

And yes ... I'm aware of the holding down the CTRL key and rolling the cursor to get larger letters. I couldn't live without that standard feature.

I also like the Vanilla !! My biggest need / request ... is to make the text font size 1.0, 1.5, or 2.0 points LARGER !! I vote for simplicity i.e. no background pictures that clutters the page. I'm here to "read" and "learn" and NOT to be distracted by the background images. Pictures scattered out throughout the articles are OK !!

Thanks for ALL of the WORK from the "KU Buckets TEAM" ... You are NOW RANKED near the top of the class!!

@jRman ... I think you are on to something here ... Perhaps the Refs "Get Paid" by the number of calls they make !! "The more calls they make"; the "more money they make." Now I understand why the whistles are blown!

Slayer ... Great Post !! My only concern on Wigs is his lack of "body mass." Does he have the mass / strength to force his way to finishing a shot? It could be that Wigs gets out "man upped and pushed around." We will see as only game play will answer this question.

I like the direction that this site is going. Good Job by ALL. I'm over 70 years old and I like the "larger and darker" font size suggestion. The BORDERS on the little boxes (Unread messages and clicking on the Right Side to see the unread message) also need to be a little darker. My ole EYES are not as good as 20 some years ago. I am a "frequent reader" and a "infrequent poster" of Jayhawk BB information. The more posting and 'useful articles;'' the Better.

All I can say is "GOOD BYE" KU Sports and "HELLO" KU Buckets !! Wow ... you guys and gals efforts / contributions on this site has been "tremendous" in the short time you had to get something useful up and running. Now you are adding the best part ... i.e. "frosting to the cake" that's call KU BUCKETS. Great Job by all and a BIG Heartfelt "Thanks to Approx" for the leadership and stamina that has been exhibited. ROCK CHALK KU Buckets !!!

Amen Brother !!!

KU football is VERY "Deep under a Heap." Who cares anymore ?? Wake me up when they start winning again !! Ho Hum !!

KU "IS" a Basketball University (both Ladies & Men) !!
