I do not feel good about this one at all. Just feels like a game where they make 12-15 threes.

Nice article on Dedric here
@BeddieKU23 I was just making sure I was reading it correctly without the context of the article. Pat is a load of garbage
@BeddieKU23 agree on all of that. I think Dotson and Dedric will have to play 36 plus minutes a game. Might have to ask Dotson to go 40 a game. He can rest this summer. There is no reason to play Charlie and KJ unless severe foul trouble happens. Just go with Mitch and Garrett off the bench and let it fly.
We will need Q to play like he did in the Big 12 and Ochai or Marcus to at least produce something on offense. I’m not overly optimistic about this team winning two games this weekend, but it’s March and you never know.

Pat Forde at his best. Never a dull moment for the IDIOT
Bill Self (50), Kansas. Better make some hay before the posse arrives. As successful as he's been, Self's future would seem to be in doubt going forward.
Is he saying the school might fire him?
I wouldn’t run from that at all. ( talking about FBI)
This is what I have said and always thought. While he obviously could be saying the right things to say them I just don’t see him leaving KU high and dry. If anything I think this will motivate him more than ever to win another title.

Pretty strong quotes in here from Bill.
I’m certainly not motivated to be anywhere else than right here, especially during these time.
Just FYI “bracketologist” are graded on how many teams out of the 68 they get right and if they get them within 1 seed line.
@DanR with a a few days to prepare hopefully Self can come up with a way to play Dedric and DMac and still guard
Self “ Shocked” KU got MW bracket

When do we learn what time we play?
Should be sometime tonight. Next couple hours.
Northeastern plays 4 guards and shoots a ton of threes. Shoot 39% as a team. Not the greatest of matchups for KU. Vegas opened the line at KU -10.5 and it is already down to 8.5.
I’ve seen two final brackets from People that have KU as the 4 in the MW with UNC as the 1. Boy would Roy bitch and moan about that.

Bill didn't care if we won. Top 4 seed here we come
They will be a 4 seed and if they somehow make it to the second weekend will get absolutely undressed by any 1 seed.

This is a long thread. Maybe I missed it. Why isn’t McCormack playing?
Self went small.

Haters will hate, but this has been a horrible season for KU. This team just has little to no identity.
Couldn’t agree more. Losing Doke hurt that. Without him this team does nothing well.
Iowa St was plus 15 from 3 and plus 10 from the line. Hard to overcome that.
People can shit on Marcus all they want but at least he tries his ass off
Can’t beleive Iowa St can make all these big 3’s with tired legs
KirkIsMyHinrich said:
Their legs are fine. These are 20-year olds. Iowa St has played 3 straight games too by the way. What they lack is effort and shooting ability.
Iowa State looks fine energy wise and able to make 3’s .
If we are being honest they are a better team.
Remember when people thought Ochai was a lottery pick
This team is so damn soft. Any adversary and they fold
Route city
If we can’t make 4 or 5 threes it’s not gonna matter. Might not matter anyway
Gotta think Shayock makes 2-3 triples this half.
KU didn’t make a shot the last 7:47. Wow
That’s the best shot they can get with 20 seconds left. Ridiculous
Sad thing is Iowa St is awful at defesne
Good job good effort boys
2 on Dotson. Uh oh

freeeee throooows are hard
Garrett has to become a better finisher and FT shooter. He can’t get to the rim whenever he wants .
Come Dave. Grab the rebound. Gifted two points
Look at all the activity and energy from Q. Love it!

Hilton South?
Crowd is about 70-30 Iowa State . Pretty sad actually.
Another awful start for Ocahi. Glad self pulled him quickly
Maybe we should just wait for the facts to come out . I know that’s not the cool thing to do in 2019, but it really does make the most sense.
I think KU has to win tonight to have a chance at a 3 seed. They have zero shot at a 2.
Gonzaga, Virginia, Duke, UK, Sparty, UNC, Tennessee , and Michigan will be the top 8 seeds.
Ochai is struggling mightily
I don’t understand why people think Danny wants to come back and be a assistant coach. He can get a job at a lesser school and try to rebuild his resume. There is no reason for him to come back and be a assistant. Plus we need assistant coaches that can recruit.
Survive and advance. It’s March isn’t !?
What’s even more amazing is on the possession before last Self called a pay to free Grimes up for a 3. I mean there’s got to be a better option.
Perimeter D is brutal tonight. Whoever that was literally ran away from Roach to give him a wide open look.
What a take Dot!
That was a brutal 2 minutes. Woof
I have watched a lot of basketball in my life and I have never seen someone that can shoot with the most confidence in the world and then the complete and utter lack of it in the same game. It’s amazing how Q just goes in and out of the flow of the game.
Really need Ochai or Garrett to do something offensively.

@Woodrow hmm, I wonder what they’ll do with that cap space? Probably extend Hill.
Hill and Jones. I’m sure they will add one more higher profile signing.
