I'm going to say it straight out now , this BS with De Sousa has gone way past insane now, and don't come at me with your feeble excuse anymore about OH WELL the NCAA office was closed it was around Christmas time, save that crap for somebody else cause I'm not buying it any longer.

De Sousa got his clearance everybody knew he was coming as I checked back on the article Dec 22nd people knew that he was on his way

Ya Ya let me hear you say OH well since he is from Bum F - - - Eygpt it takes longer,- -NEWS FLASH it's been longer. - - This should have been a wrap for some time now. - - Even with the NCAA not doing ANYTHING but drinking eggnog and eating gingersnap cookies since they have got back from their little Christmas break it's STILL been a week and a half now since they have been back. - - REALLY? - - - SERIOUSLY ? - -a week and a half to gain him clearance? - -Come on let's be real. - -This boy has earned the right to play, his grades was good enough - his SAT was good enough - -I don't need to hear anymore lame ass excuses - -Bottom line NCAA do your fricken job -and that doesn't include the eggnog.

I mean really , it's not like they have 10 - - -20- -- cases of players trying to gain eligibility at this point of the season. - - They have De Sousa - maybe another case but please holy crap are they that incompetent , ENOUGH of the excuses already - -do your job - take a little less time playing grab ass at the office with the office help whether it's male or female your playing grab ass with - -take a minute - - remove your hand from the ass - - from the crotch and do what your really surpose to be doing while at work. - -Enough is Enough , play time is over - -this isn't romper room - it's Basketball 101. - -there is no more excuses as to why they are not getting this done - -don't try and even stick up for these idiots - ain't buying it -- ain't hearing it.

De Sosua should be cleared by now - -no if's and's or but's Billy now - - - - - that MIGHT be little different story - -but come on like I said they are not swamped with having to clear multiple players at this time of year - give me a fricken break - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@Jayballer54

I figured so, I just wanted to clarify to others that would read your post and assume the rumor was he's done for the season.

He very well could be ineligible whenever there is a decision. And if the intention is to fight this to March means 1 thing, there would be an appeal to being ruled ineligible.

I'll settle for having Silvio in a perfect world. I haven't considered Billy apart of this team since Game 1 and its been easier to enjoy the season looking at it that way

I think your probably one of the smarter one's here lol. Sometimes we just want to continue to hold on to things when in reality we know that the chance of what we would like to happen - - IS NOT going to happen. - I think it has gotten to the point, that this has drug out so long that I think pretty much everyone knows deep down , Billy isn't going to be able to play this year. - It sucks , but it is what it is I too also will be satisfied to have Silvio I think he can bring a lot for us - -such as another big - -depth - -rebounding - -hoping and thinking chances are a lot better of him being cleared - -and soon. - I like your way of thinking on this. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@Jayballer54

If the investigation is really going to take until March, they should just declare him ineligible this year. He's a basketball player. There's no point in dragging this into March and declaring him eligible on March 15.

Agree. it's to bad but sure sounds like that the investigation will continue for some time. Didn't say but I just feel there is more going on then just a car involved in this whole ordeal.

I agree, if this indeed does continue which it looks like what is hinted at , even if he was in the end declared eligible in March , his season is lost. He for one would just not be able to contribute that much for the team at that point. Plus Coach Self mentioned that we were reaching a point where we have to move on - -we are getting to that juncture. Stating that a a team /staff that Preston & De Sousa had been getting 70-75 % of the reps with the 1st team, and that is not doing the team any good if we do not know if they are even eligible. - -pretty much at a point where thing have got to change - -we are at that point.

I think it's time that we might as well accept the fact that Billy will not ever put a foot on the floor in a regular season contest as a Jayhawk. - Plus another thing is like you say they rule him eligible then - - -I don't think for sure we see Billy come back next year either. - Was pretty widely thought /said that Billy was more likely then not a OAD. - -After having to sit this entire season and going through what he has been through , I don't think there is any way he returns NEXT year.

I think it's just time for to focus more on what we have a better chance of actually have on the floor - that would be De Sousa, he is a different story and feel he will be cleared pretty soon. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

"done" isn't what the person said..

But if his info is to be taken seriously the resolution could take all the way to March.

true, what I was meaning was we will not see him this season, and the way it was stated sounds like that IT WILL take until March . - That is our season, if anyone would expect him to do anything in March then I think your sadly mistaking - would be of little help at that point. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@Jayballer54

There is a really easy way to check it. Watch a replay of the game and you will see how often Doke is ready to receive the pass in a position to score and how often he is not. Same thing with rebounding, with his size he should be averaging 12-15 rpg but he is not because he does not know how to box out and position himself to get a rebound. BTW, the rebounding part is true for most KU players and this is why KU is being out rebounded by just about every team.

You don't have to believe me, just watch the game, I am sure is available on ESPN3.

Check out B Shark's comment above - -that's exactly what I'm talking about. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

BShark said:

It's not just getting in position for Doke. There were plenty of possessions where he never touched the ball at all. Even if he isn't wide open for a dunk because of great position it's not a terrible idea to get the ball to him to see if the defense will collapse.

Exactly , - -NO TOUCHES -- -ZERO - whether he was half way posted up or not. - Because hell if they made over 3 passes before jacking it up - very unusual - - shooting that many three's is not going to cut it. - - Especially against the WV - -Oklahoma's - -Texas Tech, - you r spot on. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Watch games from last year and see how Lucas got himself in position to receive the pass inside. Udoka does not know how to do this yet and this is why he does not get as many shots inside. Basketball 101.

No why he is not getting shot is these guys come down and pass the ball 2-3 times and want to jack up a three, sorry I know I'm not in the minority on this one.- -I don't care if he gets your Lucas position a half ass position - -3/4 of the time they don't even begin to look inside. - -You want basketball 101 what is any EVEY coach tell you to do - -GET THE BALL INSIDE. - -I'm not accepting trying to put the blame on Doke for this. - -Even IF it is a half ass post up - you better be looking inside - they are giving NO effort to even try. - -You might want to talk to Coach Self see what he think on the situation. - - -NOPE not buying what your trying to sell . - -I'd probably be the same as Doke with this. - - WHY should I try and bust my ass to post up in here if they not even looking or making a concentrated effort to get the ball to me - -you see that what your talking about works both ways. - -Seen it happen to many times this season hell their putting up a three BEFORE Doke even has time TO post up.

If their not jacking up a three after the first three-four passes then that's a minority of the night.. - -Coach Self says we are to easy to defend because it is either three point attempt or dunk - -well there is a lot less dunks. - -You see what happened towards the end of the 1st half last night - -Doke had had ZERO - -ZERO attempts , there is a time out believe Self Called it and out of the time out and the finish of the half who scores the final 7 points of the half for us? - - Doke.- - now you tell me - -is that pure co-incidence or is that Coach Self all up in their ass about getting the ball inside to Doke? - -I'll take the latter. - -They finally start to try and work the ball inside and you see the result.

Now are you going to tell me that just by accident that in that final 2 1/2 minutes that all of a sudden Doke decides he better try to post up so he can get the ball -OR could it be Coach Self just flat out ripped their ass, and then they decided to try and work harder to get it inside. - -Not buying anything your trying to sell on this thanks. - This is not on Doke - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Is today the day? (Preston & De Sousa) • Jan 10, 2018 05:12 PM

Read from another site ( KU recruiting thread site ) - A friend of mine had posted on there, he was listening to Radio 610 this morning and Bob Fescoe was reporting that he had talked to someone on the inside at KU and they said that the thing with Billy goes WAY DEEPER then the car.

Says they are investigating some people in Billy family - - said this is probably why his mama went off about the NCAA getting in her business on twitter.

I myself have thought for awhile now - -there has got to be more to this then just the car , it just doesn't add up if it was just about the car - hope it's wrong but I just don't know - -guess maybe sometime we will find out. - Were all wanting them to hurry up and tell us what they determine - - gonna kick us right square in our most important area of our male anatomy - ya I know not spelt right - -but right square in the chones - when they deliver the decision and declare him ineligible after all this time. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Very true hell we could lose to the infamous YMCA team of Topeka when you have a team that out of their first 30 shots 23 were from the three , hell playing like that my former little biddy ball team would have a shot to beat them. - That doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that out.

let's check reality shall we? • Jan 10, 2018 03:21 PM

OK in reality we won. However if we really want to face reality and I don't think this will come as a stunner to anyone , BUT this is the third game in a row where we got our ass handed to us on a platter on the boards.

As we all know or should know in reality a team that shoots 24 three's in a half - -is living on very borrowed time, very limited time , - - -that can not continue to happen. - - We may be able to get away with the lesser teams of this league like last night but even that as we saw was really a struggle. - - We play like this against West Virginia , Oklahoma , Texas Tech , at their place - - it will be ugly , really ugly. with unavoidable loss's being the result. - Then to a lesser extent there is the ?Chance of even K-State & Oklahoma state on their floor also unless something changes and we all know what that is.

Bottom line is in reality if w don't get some help on the boards were screwed , oh sure we will end up with a good enough record to make the NCAA but umm we not going any where with the way things are with this team right now. - -We got beat by 10 on the boards last night and Iowa State by far is not that big of a club. Like Coach said last night in his post game if it hadn't been for Malik & Vick rebounding last night we would of been screwed.

I know there will be some of you thinking I'm just being negative - -umm NO - -it is called the real world. it is what it is , and unless we get Billy or DeSousa then were in real trouble, but we all know that right?

Doke took 5 shots last night - - -FIVE. - -Iowa State had no answer for him, - -no one could match his physicality , not even close -thing was did we try to find Doke? - -Nope we came down pretty simple run a little weave and jack up a three - that is not gonna cut it on down the line -like has been stated numerous times right now at this point our offense is either a jacked up three - -or a dunk. - -We have GOT TO get Billy and Silvio -go back to coach's offense he prefers 2in - -three out , that's not to say we just run away from the three - just it makes other teams have to play more honest trying to guard us with two bigs.

On a better note was good to see Malik break out , hopefully this get him going we need him. - Hopefully we will have some better news by the time we play K-State. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Ok, so now I have a question. Might come off as a pretty dumm question but I'll ask anyways. - Let's play the what if game shall we?

Let's just say - -let's play this scenario out. - - what IF - and I do realize a HUGE IF 99%-100% chance this will never happen but with that 1% that it does - what IF the NCAA - -screws around & screws around and never does get around to getting De Sousa cleared to play AT ALL this season? - -Now he worked his butt off, took his test scores and passed them so he could re-classify - and now he sits. Soo

What IF they don't get him cleared to play at all THIS year for some reason? - -Is he at this moment considered re-classified and is he right now considered this his Freshman year? -If that is the case , and he doesn't get to play because of not being cleared - -has he just wasted his freshman year OR do they then in turn not consider this his Freshman year - OR could we redshirt him for the remainder of the year & then still be considered as a Freshman? - -Can someone clear this up for me? - - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Anyone trying to give LaVar Ball money deserves to be taken for a fool, in my not-so-humble opinion. He is the worst thing in sports since the introduction of television timeouts and TV Blackouts.

It's almost like the NCAA has some secret spies lol, and they find these sites and see our posts and see how miserable this whole situation is making all Jayhawk Nation and it's like what gets their rocks off. - They sittin back laughing having a good old time, in all seriousness I mean I know in reality this isn't the case but - - -DAMM MAN - - this crap has went on long enough.

I think someone mentioned with Billy it's been 8 weeks now maybe a little longer hell I mean come on they have had long enough to decide whether he is eligible or not by now - If he is - -he is - -If he is not - then he is not - -just tell us so we can get on PERIOD

I think Billy himself is right at the edge it would not surprise in the least if we don't hear something - and hear soon - he could just be to the point and say - -you know what - -SCREW THIS pack up & go home and work on his NBA material. - Don't come at me with no NBA team will draft him - -yes they will off potential if nothing else. - -Don't act like I'm the only one on this site that has said this either , we know he will get drafted. - Actually I don't blame the kid - -even if he is guilty - -15 games is plenty of suspension for ANYONE

I mean this fickle fricken NCAA N Carolina makes fake classes where their guys don't have to show up and they don't get even the littlest slap - BUT us - this crap is getting so old. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
