@Jethro Luckily this is the last time this team will be playing 3 games in 3 days.
🤔
@BShark Selden underwhelmed his freshman season as well.
Who do I need to call to get the Helms foundation to award KU a title for 2020? 😂
@Crimsonorblue22 Send me a bribe. I missed two games and KU got blown out by 15+ each game. Clearly they missed my mojo! 😂
Miller’s really good. If he were a Jayhawk I would be proud of whatever the team did in his absence after Bill kicked his sorry butt off the team.

@BShark not good!
If we lose today, no NCAAT game threads for @wissox :face_with_tongue:
Shoot, no game threads! (No pressure @wissox) ;)
Found this interesting
Champions have come from teams ranked in the top 12 for the last 7 weeks of the season almost without fail (2 exceptions) from 1989 to present.
The Missouri Alabama game is on. I’m rooting for the refs. Can they both lose? Oh wait they already have.
Does anyone know if the number one overall seed still gets to pick their location?
@rockchalkjayhawk I doubt there is enough time left in McCullars tenure to rest him until healthy.
@jayballer67 If Texas has 8 appearance then they have 7 losses. Random fact of the day - Texas is the only non-big 8 member to win the big12 so far.
@wissox 8-8 the last 16 (17 years).
ACC tournament is ridiculously difficult from what I can tell. 1 ACC tournament win vs 5 national titles
SEC - 2 SEC titles vs 3 national titles
Big12 - 2 Big12 titles vs 3 national titles
Big East - 3 Big East titles vs 5 National titles
@rockchalkjayhawk Lester Earl never recovered from his back issues. You never know. Hopeful Kevin’s back heals up quickly, but it may be a lifelong problem.
@wissox I’m still salty about 2020. Should’ve won 2003. Perry’s senior year as well. OAD tournament doesn’t crown the best team, just the hottest team with the most favorable matchups. Hope this team catches fire!
@wissox but it is! Lol see above.
Now I’m curious how many eventual national champions won their respective conference tournament title as well.
I can manipulate stats with the best of them.
Clearly to win the national championship todays game is a must win. Bill has lost in every final four he’s made and not won the big 12 tournament title.
@wissox 0-2 when he loses in the final four.
@KirkIsMyHinrich Does he have any eligibility left? Lol. His 76ers contract is just a NIL deal to pay the bills while he heals up for the 2024 KU basketball season.
@wissox Look at Championship years under Bill. 2 Big12 tourney titles to go with the national hardware. 🤷♂️
@wissox My grandmother inlaw reaallly enjoyed calling her husband Dick. (Richard to everyone else)
@Kcmatt7 said in Who would ever replace Self?:
I love Norm.
But Norm had his chance at St. John’s. I think we can do better. And I think we can find a guy who will be here for 15+ seasons.
Young stud who will be the obvious choice at the time. A decades long hire that is a marriage to the institution. It’ll be a new beginning and I’m glad I’m not shouldering the decision.
@jayballer67 isu won 4 of the last 9 and Texas one, so that’s 5 losses in 9 tournaments (no 2020). I can’t recall the rest. Needless to say KU is good. I can’t remember when that glassy erection went up - maybe Dick knows?
@BShark Yeah. Helps fill out the narrative.
@jayballer67 since the name change from sprint center?
I know some would like an early exit for rest, but I like the experience. I think it’s good for the freshmen to play several one and done games to get their nerves taken care of. Switch over to third phase of the season; the learning curve is steep - take advantage of any extra games.
As for tomorrows game, if you’re playing you just as well win it
I think Bill has figured out to tank a few league games early to inflate their rankings to give us some quality wins late in the year. Lol
Got the rubber match with ISU. Same with UT next?
The under is looking good 130.5 but could this make bad beats?
Edit - negative
@BeddieKU23 said in Boowa State Game Thread:
We don't say it enough, this defense is elite at times
When they strap in it’s amazeballs!
@benshawks08 said in Boowa State Game Thread:
It’s all more fun when sick is involved.
It’s all fun and games until Dick lets loose of the ball
@benshawks08 I think Dick is due for a spurt after the break.
Good offense beats isu’s good defense. Keep it up! Oh yeah and rebound Por favor
@benshawks08 said in Boowa State Game Thread:
@dylans can get up.
That’s what the finger roll is for

@benshawks08 said in Boowa State Game Thread:
Dick also got it in deep.
Dick loves going in deep
He’s long!
Dick banging the ball hard off the hole with Wilson there to clean it up. Should have Fabio on the cover.
Interesting free throw stroke. Shades of Barkley golfing.
I wanted Udeh to tear the rim off!
Bobby getting abused
When in Rome…

@BeddieKU23 said in Boowa State Game Thread:
Wow why is Bobby out there?
Because we are ahead and every minute harris sits is a win.
Has been recruited over. Next year will have options.
@StLJhawk said in Boowa State Game Thread:
Ack, Fran getting an award
Dang. I was hoping Granny Franny was retiring.
@benshawks08 Seems fluky…with that NC and those 6 wins they average less than 2 NCAA tournament w’s per year over the last 7 appearances.
@Jethro lol. I don’t want a KU guy hired. I think would be a mistake - none are any good and they’d be hard to fire.
I’m still a Brad Stevens fan.
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.
@BeddieKU23 KU has now won 13 of its last 15 B12 tourney games
While Faylor has lost 7 of their last 8. Yikes
@benshawks08 Yes. I meant bigotry not racism. I absolutely used the wrong word.
@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. 😝
