@mayjay Well I duno but your ramblings sounded pretty reasonable - -logical to me. - --ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@wissox So very true, I understand - -like you say these other games I can enjoy as where THEIR fans feel the same thing I do lol. -- ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@mayjay YA you know what? - - you are actually probably 100000000% right - -just looking for perfection - -too dam critical, I'm to old for this I need to just be able to sit back and enjoy these guys for who they are and what they are - -and that is - -they are a very good team - -that's my problem I get TO wrapped up at times - -and that's why these others look more fluid probably cause I have no vested interest and could give a rats ass less about who wins o losses. - -Your right for sure -see I told you I knew someone could put logic to my ramblings lol. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY ONG BABY

@dylans just got through - -again - - man just seems we are not gaining any ground seems like pretty persistent anywhere for 8-10%. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Guys let me try to explain the best I can, I know there are alot of times I don't really convey my message the most clear and some people perceive it wrong/take it wrong way, and that's not what I try to do, I'm trying to express/bring forth a point ( as I see it ) but alot of times can't express what I want in the most clear way. So with that being said let me try again, on something that I'm just - - -hell how can I explain when I'm not even sure? - - But let's see:

Ok, you know lately I've been watching ALOT of games, diferent teams and, here is where it might get confusing to you all cause I can't REALLY pinpoint it myself for 100% sure and I know there will be some that think I'm bagging on our boys and it's no that, at all.

Anyways as I sit and watch these games I see some of these and I think DAM they look smooth, really relaxed, free flowing I mean just really fluid - -and there is times - - alot of times recently that even though our guys are good - - really good I just don't see that and that's where It gets confusing for me , maybe just to critical, trying to over examine, maybe looking for to much pefection, - -Something and I can't put a finger on it and again we are good but there is just something that looks- - -hell I dunno guys, I know just babbling, told you i can't explain. I mean I watch our motion on offense and then watch others and ours looks like not quitte as fluid, seems like there is just mare times when we get ourselves whee things get forced some herky jerky I can't explain., it;s just that it gets me woried that whatever it is I'm trying to figure out might be just enough from obtaining our goal - -that NCAA TITLE. oK i'M DONE - -just some random thoughts this saturday early morning while waiting for the snow - -let the games begin - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Hey, I forgot to mention/ask this to others.. - -But in our game with TCU Thursday night I seen something and was curious if anyone else had seen this or noticed it. I even jotted down the time of the game sa was just curious as to what the hell was going on, so wondering - - --

With like 11:55 to play in the 1st half there was a timeout and I saw Coach Self ALL OVER I'm pretty sure LaGerald Vick, I mean they had to keep people in between them he was yelling at him, and then Coach Roberts stepped in between them and then Coach Roberts started getting onto LaGerald. - -Did anyone else see that or was I the ONLY ONE? - -Was curious as to what happened -thinking he must of either said something to Coach or really screwed up big time on the floor - -ANYBODY? - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@HawkChamp ya, your right - -hitting their stride I think - -But be careful were not surpose to Say that name here - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

North Carolina going down.- -Not going to say who to cause we don't wanna mention their name. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@jaybate-1.0 we didn't lose to the worst team in our conference, Texas an Oklahoma were the worst teams in the conference. - -We didn't lose our # 1 sees, we still will be the # 1 seed in the Midwest.. -It's not like we are the only # 1 seeded team to lose in their post season tourney. - -# 1 team in the big 10 Purdue loses to # 8 seed Michigan, # 1 Dayton loses to # 9 seed both of these games were the quarter finals just like KU -gonna be more upsets. - - you need to remember this too, you don't think the committee is going to take into consideration no mater how trival it may seem, but they are going to take into account we were playing this game without one of our main players, we have Josh yesterday no way we lose that game. - No one can tell me that Josh isn't worth 3 points and 5-6 rebounds. - -Plus just like the commentators said last night, they said they don't think this will have ANY EFFECT at all on our seeding.

They said we just got through winning our 13th straight conference championship, and this loss in no way did it effect the main goal of winning the NCAA championship, they said true winning the post season tourney would of added a little more BUT doesn't/shouldn't hay the much effect. - -Saying actually could be a blessing in disguIse give the guys a little more rest, I'm not THAT worried. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

It's like the announcers said at half time on a couple of different ESPN channels. In the long run - -they said this doesn't change a thing. They said KU had just won it's 13th straight conference championship - -and their main goal which is still their main objective is to win the National title. - -They said winning the post season Big 12 tourney would of been just a little added bonus but in no way did it change anything about winning the national title. - -they said actually it might be a blessing for us to get the extra rest. - - Which actually is true, just kind of a bummer but you figure without Josh I think we had to realize there was a chance - I mean I mentioned before the game I was a little worried about the boards - -We all know Josh is worth 3 points and 5 rebounds, just step back - -re-focus and here we go. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@Blown Bench? - - What Bench? - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@truehawk93 People talking we may keep our # 1 sed but do we stay in the Midwest - -a 1st round loss in the tourney hurts. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Well what do you think? - - Do you think we hang on to the Midwest Region or move us out?

@BShark who did they get?

I'M STOKED Guys, Sooo ready to get this under way - - This is what I look forward to EVERY YEAR keeps me going, keeps me young. - -Love my College Basketball could watch 24/7 - - -LET THE GAMES BEGIN - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY:relaxed: :satisfied: :smiley_cat: :sunglasses: :exclamation: :exclamation:

@truehawk93 Hell Ya - -gota love it. - -That's my boy National POY - -Frank you be the man. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@Blown Seems about right LOL. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@kjayhawks Ya very true. - - I know some will probably disagree but they look actually decent last night seemed pretty loose fluid - -we need to take it to them knock them down let them know - - - NOT TODAY BOYS, don't give them any hope - - -TKO right out the bat ya feel me?- -- ROCK CHALK AL DAY LONG BABY

@dylans Hell after I drank a couple would be REAL FUN lol. - -Na just kidding, my brother and I use to go a long time ago - -what an atmosphere al the different schools, going to the rallies. - -Like I said ages - -it was at the Kemper, going to the Golden OX - - had a blast. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Ok guys, I'm gonna to have to say that I'm just a little , and let me emphasize little --just a wee , tad bit nervous. Nothing more then that but still. - -with Josh being suspended , he is our 2nd leading rebounder, plus his offensive output, we going to be missing leaves me some nervous.

TCU - -with Kendrick , and Broz - -however you spell I, if I'm not mistaking gave us a pretty good challenge on the boards and then on our defensive end - -who is going to take over for josh, might be a match up problem for LaGerald. - -This for sure we are going to probably be playing SVI and Vick at the same time today - so if one of them gets in foul trouble - -who replaces them? - - -I know we will probably be ok, just a negative Nellie here oday - -just curious that's all. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@BShark ya I know, I know, you know he is Duke, all this other chitter chatter just makes conversation and a little never say die small talk you knw lol. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Well we are doomed lol. - -I mean Deano says TCU chances or ill get us seeing as how no Josh tomorrow, - I mean didn't say directly, but you get the jest. - -Plus they wer quick to point out how we didn't want to see Bucknell or Wichita State of UNC Wilmington on the other side of the NCAA bracket either, so I'm guessing in people's eyes we are just a warmed over pile of doo - -that's ok we can ride with that - hope the guys need some more incentive lol - - - it's been like this all year, how we have played so many close games, funny thing is like it was pointed out at another time 73 % of ALL big 12 teams games had been decided by single digits this conference season - -NOT just KU BUT everyone.. - -guess I'm missin something. -I guess really good teams finding ways to win ALL those close games means nothing - -guess losing only ONE road game all year means nothing.- -LOL - - SO YA ONE and done in the tourney guys lol - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@brooksmd OH YA my bad totally, not sure if your were right on others let me help, this is for KU right? - -Ok well not sure just sayin if you noticed but let me help you - -did you happen to see these just maybe - -just sayin?:+1:
Bruce Weber still mad, - -Lonzo Ball freshman of the year , Kim Anderson , Travis ford , Groce & Illnois , Over and under on Shaka, Gonzaga loser. - -you happen to catch those threads - -I dunno just sayin - -maybe you seen them - maybe not.
Refresh my memory now umm are any of those KU - did anyone of those topics deal with KU? I dunno just asking? - -You so more in the know then me so just thought I'd just ask - -So this isn't for basketball related it's just KU right? - -I mean I'm confused right - -this is just for KU right? even though basketball related - but help me out just KU right? thanks so much and I hope I can get a grasp of it so I'll know - -I mean I'm sure the others I've indicated had lots directly related with KU so I apologize - - just me, - -kinda slow thank you eve so much once again - -I wish I could be ask quick to figure things out appreciate it - thanks again - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@brooksmd hey thanks for the insight, I mean I know I'm the ONLY one that's done this lol, I appreciate your concern. - -Not sure if you've noticed BUT i'm sure you have you seem pretty intelligent so I'm sure just sayin that I HAVE put others in different areas - thanks again and have a great night - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

The one thing that concerns me with the game tomorrow afternoon with Josh being out - -more if we hook up with TCU - -seems like they were working us over pretty good on the boards for a good portion of the game, and I think this is where we are going to miss Josh - him being our 2nd leading rebounder that, and top of that if TCU plays that zone Josh is a pretty good at distributing the ball out of the middle - these will be things we will miss matching up against TCU tomorrow I believe. We are just going to have to have either Vick or Bragg or both step it up tomorrow, should be ok as long a we just don't let Williams, Broziosky , sorry hell I can't spell it, but you get the drift and Robinson go nuts. - -ROC CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@chriz IF he gets married lol, ya your right I'm sure he will . - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@brooksmd YA your right there is DUKE in our thread again lmao - -because they are so laughable - -thanks for noticing - -good lookin out, there is nothing that gets by you guys is there lmao. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY:expressionless:

@Crimsonorblue22 He can do it all, he is the one point guard they said is NBA ready for sure right now, the best point guard in this class. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

I wa reading an article about Lonzo's dad Lavor, firing back at Charles Barkley, saying if Charles knew anything or what he was talking about, he might have won a championship whatever the hell that means.

Anyways the article said that the comments from Lovar hadn't been lost by the NBA folks. - - Ask if the NBA had concerns, a scout said, not really, he says as soon as he gets his money or when he does he wil ignore his father. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@KUSTEVE Ya they was some question, well they said they think this is going a little overboard now -they said they thought if Allen would of caught the ball when he slammed it down he wouldn't of got the T. - -Still spoiled lil shit lol, dam pretty boy - -or so he thinks. - - Oh on a side note how many times did our buddy let me play with my hair, is it out of place, how many times was he fussin today with it - - -I lost count lmao. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Well I just got through listening to the for quarters broadcast of Zags blog and I'm not EVEN trying to build up anything really, but yet find it at least a little interesting concerning Trevon Duval:

They was talking about his recruitment and talking about how he was being really smart, cause he had gotten to see some really high profile games, how he had Visited Ku , Arizona , and Duke. - Was talking about how Seton Hall was still trying to get him for a visit. - But he had gotten to see the big time atmosphere during his profile games at KU and Arizona.

They talked about how everybody just seemed to believe that it was a given that all the twitter and such and other places saying Duke , Duke , But like they said given the Fact of Duke being such an elite program with their Coach that if he had decided and was all in on Duke - -then why didn't he just go ahead and announce for Duke?

They which was of these guys was Evan Daniel from scout , said that Trevon was taking these visits and thought it would make it easier to make his decision- - But actually taking these visits has made it a lot harder trying to decide where to commit. - - They said fully feel, think it's Ariz , Ku , & Duke. - -saying they have NO GUT feel at all where he is leaning, they said they will say this that KU still in the picture as Norm has been out to see him again at IMG. - -not trying to read anything into this, but maybe not quite over yet. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@JayHawkFanToo I read somewhere but I can't remember where now, but the article said the final voting and announcement wouldn't be made for freshman of the year until the weekend of the final four. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@JayHawkFanToo Thanks, just wanted to give a new look lol - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Good ol Grayson just did it- -AGAIN. - -got hot cause he got called for a foul - slammed ball on the floor, and got T' up - -some - -never learn. - -OCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@JayHawkFanToo Thank you exactly what I'm saying I mean good gosh. I got a question I just got into a discussion with my brother, about this - -is this car that Josh hit - -I does this car belong to the female KU basketball player Calvert? - - - He is saying how she shouldn't have a chance to come back, her scholi shouldn't have a chance to come back - -did this accident involve her car? - I didn't think THIS time had anything to do with her did it? - -I know the vandalism did- -but this is totally separate right? - -He said this was her car thatJosh hit - -I don't think so right - this has nothing to do with her does it this time?

On another note with Josh being suspended this game so what - Does that mean we play Vick & SVI in the starting line up, don't have much choice do we? - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

you think some people over react just a tad on some of this? - -I mean ya, it's not good but dam some people make it like the sky is falling.

I mean let's keep this is perspective good GOD, some posters here are more worried about the program instead of the person. - -He is a teenage kid -I'll ask this one more time - -name me or tell me of ONE PESON here that hasn't pulled some kind of bone head mistake during their growing up years? - If someone says me - -I call BS, All - -and I mean everyone has made mistakes in their life - -you grow from your mistakes -you learn from your mistakes - -BUT for some people who come across my worried or the program and not the kid - -is bullshit. - Everyone makes quote unquote " piss ant " decisions some time or another. There are some people I just have to shake my head at.

@BeddieKU23 this isn't with the vandalism of the car? - -JUMPIN - - GEE -- HOSSA - -FATS. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

just voted this morning. - -Just doesn't seem frank is making any head way in this. - - I watched the sloth last night when Gonzaga was playing St Marys, I'm serious, I really don't dislike the kid - -but seriously if you really watch him, he is slow getting back down the floor in transition - - can he dunk the ball? - I have yet to see him get more then what appears to be more then like 7-8 inches off the floor -all open looks are lay ups off the glass - -he gets beat by mobile big men constantly - kind of Ol-Lay defense - -I'm just not sein it. - -I would think Goss-Williams would be a lot more popular vote for player of the year then him. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
