WOW, just crazy. -- They were talking and saying what's so hard is for them with this that MOST people might carry have such mild sympthoms they never realize that they even have it but yet are carries of the virus, & like has been said for the most part people will be fine BUT
The one's that have those under lying health conditions kidney diaease , lungs , low immune system , diabiates - -heart - really need to be cautious talk steps. - - heard now 30 deaths and like at 1,000 infected - -crazy
Heard on Fox this morning they were talking to the Secetary of medical health. Was ask about the sports field and not allowing large groups of people to advents. he was ask who makes that determination, and responded that is left up to State and local authorities not the Federal Govt.
They said even with that being said that a Gov in the State of Ohio was saying they were host/site to NCAA and that he was recommending that NO fans be allowed in attendance . - which they said they certainly wouldn't 2nd guess decisions made by local authorities.
I also heard there are going to be conditions to the Big 12 tourney - - limited people to be able to attend team practices - -limited media access. I still am fully believing when it is done I just don't think they are going to have fans attend games.
Going to be interesting because some of the places hardest hit NY - - - Seattle - and possibly Florida? - -all NCAA sites right?
@Marco said in NCAA Tournament: Should it happen?:
@drgnslayr Yeah, but this fucker kills alot quicker and more efficiently. It is not the flu.
Again CDC has come out since this has started and now say this is TEN TIMES a deadly as the flu
@Marco said in South vs Midwest Region:
@jayballer73 Why do you say South?
Just getting a read off other threads and things being said. We still have a very Solid fan base in Houston, have heard even though some in both ways -- easier air travel to Houston more flights into Houston - - The Bracket in what seems to be a very popular opinion in the South wouldn't be as stacked as in the Midwest. - -Feeling that not as much competition for fan base in the South as in the Mid West. - -Even if Houston was placed there feel like better circumstance of fans - -people just don't believe South is going to be as stacked. - -you might be looking at Dayton - - -possibly Michigan State - -Maybe Kentucky and someone else just can't remember who it is coming in the Midwest - - all of those teams Fans really travel well. who knows 100 % - but with coach not saying, just get this feeling
@kjayhawks said in Coronavirus Thread: Boy, guys. I really just don't know. Best to keep tabs.:
NCAA has announced that its going forward with everything at this point. No plans for canceling or playing in empty venues at this time.

@drgnslayr said in My NCAA Prediction . . .:
Let's get a vote on what we think will happen:
The NCAA Tournament will continue as usual but with a few adjustments, like hand sanitizers at every gate. Maybe require masks.
The NCAA Tournament will continue but without an audience.
The NCAA Tournament will be cancelled all together.
Would think 2 from what I've been hearing
@dylans said in Boy guys I really just don't know best to keep tabs:
@jayballer73 I think it would be interesting if they would allow 1,000 fans spread out throughout the stadium - kinda like a Missouri game. But the ticket prices would be outrageous. As opposed to completely empty stadiums, but that would not happen as you still have too many choke points putting all those people in the same places.
lol ,that's about 500 to many for Missouri fans lmao

they said the NCAA tourney is the next Domino to fall. The CDC authorites saying now that the Corona Virus is now 10 times as deadly as the flue
well got to do retraction guys/ Did some checking I was going from information that was called to me from other Topeka friends. - -No confirmed virus in Topeka. - -No confirmed virus. I went on line checked a little further. - -WIBW say the Shawnee Co health says that yes there are two that is self quarnteed for POSSIBLE - - - POSSIBLE virus these two contacted Shawnee Co saying they had traveled to areas where the CDC had issues alerts. At the time no Confirmed case in the Topeka area and these two are showing no sympthoms right now. - - WHEW that's good , although still scary and to close, just wanted to holler back and apologize my friends wrong info I'm sorry.

Well guys , just came across on our local news. We now have the Corona Virus here in TOPEKA KS. - We have 2 confirmed Corona Virus in out Local Hospital in Topeka St Mt Vail. - that's just wonderful.
On top of that I have a friend that is a Nurse at a walk in Clinic here and Topeka , now this is separate but This guy walks in to this Clinic here in Topeka yesterday and promptly says - - - he was infected with the virus he had contacted with a Corona victim in Florida. - - - WTF -- idiots , they have been saying again & again DO NOT go into your doctor CALL YOUR DOCTOR. - -So he walks into out clinic so they had to call the CDC and they promptly said - - shut it down. SO now this Clinic has to be shut down for the next 14 days and on top of that every one that was in the clinic at this time has now has to be quarnateed -Holy crap people think. - -So things NOT GOING WELL here stay safe my friends

I think people are getting a little too crazy at this point. Over 70% of people in China that got the virus are now recovered and doing fine. That’s where it hit the worst. Sounds like it’s high risk for elders and people with immune disorders. I’d recommend them folks not going out unless it is a must. Everyone else wash their hands often.

So they had to call the CDC they was told they had to close the clinic for 14days and that anyone that had come within 6 ft of this idiot now could be infected - Cant stress enough if you feel like you might have symptoms they say CALL your doctor do not go in until they get things straightened out ready for you and wash - - wash - - wash your hand take ALL PRECAUTIONS

@StLJhawk said in Boy guys I really just don't know best to keep tabs:
A few random questions…
Assuming the projections for a 40-70% infection rate are correct, lets forget about the death rate from the virus itself and think about what happens when half the population gets a bad case of the flu in a relatively short period of time.
If you’re in an accident or fall down the stairs, how long will it be before the police, fire dept or ambulance responds? Who will be available to treat you at the hospital? Who will deliver the medicine and supplies to the hospital?
When a storm causes massive power outages, how long will it take to get the lines fixed?
Who is going to deliver, stock, sell and prepare the food and supplies we need every day?
I think we’re in for a rough couple of months.
And I wouldn’t hold my breath about the tournament, which totally sucks because our chances to win it are so darn good.
Sounds like the chances are becoming stronger day by day about the Tourney being played in empty arena's, - Read where the NCAA already has a plan in place just for that if it comes down to it
@Texas-Hawk-10 said in South vs Midwest Region:
Also, the two seed in the South is projected to be Florida State and Creighton is currently projected to be the two seed in the Midwest.
hmmmm tough choice. I think I would rather face Creighton just my preference though
@Texas-Hawk-10 said in South vs Midwest Region:
I want KU in the South so I can go to those games at Toyota Center since I live in Houston.
I envy you if it ends there, I know you would have a great time
@BeddieKU23 said in South vs Midwest Region:
Another thing to consider is venue. Indy region is a dome (Lucas Oil Stadium, home of the Colts) which they convert for this.
In Houston they will play in the Toyota Center which is the Houston Rockets court.. Two completely different types of venues
Would much rather play in the center on the Rockets court then in a dome where they convert. Have always heard makes it harder because of the background in a dome for shooting purposes we don't need any further hinderance on our shooting
I am one that would hope that actually Coach DOES rest the guys some in the tournament. - -We have NOTHING to gain out of the Big 12 Post season tourney - -none - - zero - -zip - -zilch. Let another team have the Post Season Big 12 Championship if it came down to it.
We have already proven who the REAL Champion of the big 12 is this Season. - - We won the Championship over A SEASON - -not a mere 4 day weekend.
I would much rather rest these guys that are nicked up/tired , if they play - - play them sparingly - - let Doke give McCormack blows - - Let Dotson give Marcus blows - - Let Christian give Moss blows. - -it just serves us no purpose really to play these guys, taking that risk for them to re-injure that ankle - seems to be the case with all three/ Ankles..
I would much rather have a fresh rested healthier group then to just win a post season Conference Championship. - -With the group we would have playing would still be very competitive . Let Marcus run point , Moss at the 2 play Ochai at what the 3 ? - - let Tristian and Silvio get more minutes - - that way have some more experience come NCAA time for spot minutes with them, and have Dotson - - Doke - - and Marcus fresh - -we would be fine. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

So let's hear you - -who is THAT team you might not want to see fairly early in the Tourney ? - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
KU already handled BYU by 15 out in Maui in November. I'd be more worried about a potential game with Marquette or St. Mary's in the second round anyway.
True they did BUT that was without their best player in Maui - -Fields , pretty dam good and went off for 28/11 against Gonzaga
I think you mean Yoeli Childs. He's probably the best player in the WCC (no offense to Petrusev or Jordan Ford), and BYU is a different team with him. But, BYU struggles against teams with athleticism and good big men, so I think we would match up pretty well with them. To me, they're kind of like a worse Dayton. Doke would go for 30-15 against BYU. The worry is BYU making ~ 15 3-pointers against us, like Dayton did.
ya , ya that is he name. Sorry my bad , really good. I think it would be a pretty dam good game. - -worried about nightmares of it being another Villanova game with them draining 3's on us. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@FarmerJayhawk said in Team Chemistry:
Next year’s group is going to be a lot of fun. Self has a boatload of interchangeable pieces, all of whom play really hard. I have no idea who’s going to start at the 4. Wouldn’t surprise me to see Enaruna, Wilson, Braun, or TGF at that spot.
Braun at the 4 potentially? I don't see that at all. I really wouldn't be surprised if Mitch wins the starting 4 spot next year because of his intangibles.
The advantage Enaruna and TGF have in the battle for minutes is they can both play the 3 and stretch 4 spots. I think Jalen is exclusively a 4 due to his lack of athleticism to guard on the perimeter. I don't see Braun playing any 4 because he's too small to guard post players. I think he can play 1-3 with the off ball guard spot being his natural position.
I agree about the versatility of the roster next season. Other than Dave and Silvio, everyone else who will be in the mix for rotation level minutes can play multiple positions which will give Self a bunch of flexibility to adjust to specific match ups. We could genuinely see an 8 or 9 man rotation next season even when Self trims it.
If Braun won the job I’d think Ochai would move to the 4. Fewer teams are running with 2 posts now so we could get away with playing 4 smalls like we did a couple years ago.
Agree 100% otherwise.
I just don't see Self voluntarily going that small next season with Mitch, Jalen, Tristan, and TGF on the roster. None of those 4 are low post oriented players, they're all perimeter/face up guys so I think our offense will look much more like it did from about 2011-2016 when our 4 spot was manned by a stretch 4 like Marcus, KY, and Perry. Dave and Silvio will have plenty of space to operate in the paint.
Size wise, next year should look a lot like 2011-2013 when KU was on of the biggest teams in the country. Next year's starting line up and rotation for that matter should not feature anyone under 6-5.
We’ll see! A lot will be determined by defense since we won’t have a force of nature on the interior. Love Dave, Silvio, and Mitch but they aren’t Doke.
I'd agree that Dave isn't the rim protector that Doke is, but I think with another off-season to work on his body, he can be a very good defender. I'll also say that Mitch is one of the best help defenders I've seen in the Self era. Plus Garrett will still be on the perimeter as well so I'm not too concerned about the defense next season.
I do think defense will take a small step backwards because it'll take a bit for Bryce Thompson to pick up the defense, but I think the offense should be better next season as well.
I agree about Dave really like him. I think a Big thing about Dave is OR one of the Big things is his motor. - -Dave at times just gets so caught up, seems like he just so hyped up/sped up which in turn causes some ba situations defensively can get caught out of position. like you say if they can work on this more during the summer - - he gonna be fine. He sure in the hell tries no doubt about that. ROCK CHALK ALLD AY LONG BABY

They pulled the 12-5 upset (is that an upset anymore?) in last year's tournament to knock out Mississippi State, and still have most of the top players from that team.
At least we won't have to face Northern Iowa. I'm still having nightmares from that game.

@kjayhawks said in Win It Outright Game Thread:
@dylans I really like coach Beard, he’s pretty much the new Eddie Sutton to me. A good coach that’s really good friends with Self and is pure class. I personally like Huggins and Boyton as well. Weber is really the only coach in the league that’s a total dip stick.
Agree, may be in the minority but I for sure do not ANY issues with Huggy. Guy has a really dry sense of humor but he for sure is a no bull type of guy. Just wish he had a team that score better, he does good with what he has got
@mayjay said in Boy guys I really just don't know best to keep tabs:
The California Insurance Commissioner ordered insurance companies to cover the cost of testing. Nationally, the president should be working with the states to do the same.
People need to understand that a death rate that is really high, like 30 to 60% for MERS and SARS, keeps the disease from rampaging very far--people get very sick, they are put in care, they die.
It drives me crazy when people focus on whether the death rate is higher or lower than flu. We know how flu spreads; decades of data demonstrates the flu's infectiousness and incubation periods; there are vaccines that even if only 50% effective stiil protect fully half the recipients, and would be more effective if people would stop thinking intuition is better than science; there are antivirals to administer to reduce the severity even when contracted.
The COVID-19 virus is dangerous regardless of the overall fatality rate. The lethality is indeed highly skewed toward the elderly, but it is the lack of ability to identify it before showing symptoms that makes everything about it a game-changer from the flu. Best evidence (including from Europe, not just China) is that incubation could take up to 3 weeks, during which time little is known about how or when it can be spread to new people, all before becoming symptomatic.
For every person bravely saying that they don't fear the virus and so they refuse to restrict their activities or change their habits, please remember the hundreds of people whom you may be in close contact with every week. You might not be afraid of getting infected, but consider this scenario: you catch it from an asymptomatic someone near you at Starbucks, who returned last week from California and whose kid caught it from a teacher who returned on Feb 21 from the Princess ship now off SF and taught for a week before getting symptoms. You spend the next week with no symptoms, and at some point you pass it on to a neighbor, who is a nurse at an assisted living facility, who manages to spread it to others there, including the food service workers who infect 50% of the residents. Public health officials go nuts as up to 25% of the infected residents die. And no one has a clue how it got there.
The point is that younger people have a responsibility to not disregard the huge danger to other people just because they may only get mildly ill. An infection rate of 2 to 3% still means literally hundreds of thousands or even millions of people will die if it spreads throughout the population.
Anyone who says we are close to a vaccine that can prevent the spread of this is lying. Anyone who says we are effectively controlling the spread is wrong. Anyone who says that it is no worse than the flu, and therefore should not be treated differently, is blind.
That does not mean society has to close down. It does mean we have to be very very careful. Remember that even with all we know about how norovirus gets spread (feces--sorry!) studies show between 1/3 to 1/2 of people using publicrestrooms don't wash their hands. Being careful with hygiene can help, but not guarantee, to protect you from the idiots among us.
Well I am just in a position that I'm on medi-care. - -got a e-mail the other day saying that if a test was needed for me that it will be covered -- nice to know

@Texas-Hawk-10 said in Team Chemistry:
Next season won't be a 4 guard look for KU. It will be much more like most of the past decade with a stretch 4 since KU will have 4 guys that could man that spot in Tristan, Mitch, and Wilson, and Grant-Foster.
I think KU's line up to start next season will be Garrett at the point, Bryce and Ochai at the 2/3 spots, Mitch at the 4, and Dave at the 5.
For the reserves, I think it'll be Braun, Wilson and Silvio as the primary reserves once conference rolls around Self trims the rotation. I think we'll see Thompson and Braun be the primary back ups to Garrett and we could also see Mitch play some 5 as well if needed.
I don't see DaJuan Harris playing a big role on next season's team. Tyon Grant-Foster is the one I'm curious about in regards to how well he'll adapt to high major basketball given the track of of JuCo's under Self has been a mixed bag over the years.
Tristan, Jalen, and Grant-Foster fighting for minutes should be good for KU. I could also see a scenario where Self goes with a big line up and use Tristan and Grant-Foster at the 3 in situations as well as KU won't have much back court depth next year. That's really what Tristan needs to develop anyway because the 3 is his NBA position and he could cause a lot of March ups problems if develops into capable 3/4 player for KU.
If dajuan Harris was not going to Tribute next year then he wouldn't have not redshirted this season

Hope not. He’s got a big role next year.
very true, I think he could really help out. - -take the Summer and really work on his game, come in next year and be able to contribute. - we are for sure having a drop off at the 5 next year. - - Dave is ok lie he helped today gave some minutes - - got some boards scored but we going to have to do it at our 5 by Committee next year I think

@jayballer73 I don’t think it was a foul, a trash shot that was too early. Players don’t try to come down doing the splits lol, he only kicked that leg out to make contact. The reply from the front you can clearly see it. They got garbage calls the whole second half.
ya it was a desperation act - then fall and get up and wine like a lilt B - - - - . I'll say this - -he sold his Coach lol.
By the way did anyone happen to see what Coach Beard said? - He said : - -This was the best KU team he has seen , the best point guard in the Nation - - the best Big Man in the Nation - -& quite possibly the best defender in the Nation - -think it would be kin of hard to agrue with that - - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Well it's already started concerning things for seedings in the NCAA tourney. - -All these teams that's on the bubble , just getting quite a bit smaller for a chance to make it. - -Was reading results from some of the Conference tourneys and so many lower seeded teams knocking off higher seeds in their Conference Tourney. These are leagues that unless you win your Tourney , you not making the NCAA. - - So that's going to take a spot away from other bubble teams. - -going to be crazy.
There's only one conference tournament game that affects the bubble today and that's the Mountain West title game with Utah St. being on the bubble. Northern Iowa is the only bubble team in conference tournament so far that has lost.
The only other team playing in a conference tournament game today that'll be affected by a loss is ETSU. ETSU in the SoCon is a potential bubble team that could lose so that's a tournament with keeping an eye on. Furman is more than capable of knocking the Bucs off and making ETSU sweat it out.
The Pac 12 and AAC both have multiple regular season games this weekend that will have a big impact on the bubble. In the P12, USC and UCLA play each other and UCLA would clinch at least a share of the P12 title with a win and Stanford plays at Oregon in a game that could move the Cardinal off the bubble. If UCLA and Stanford both lose, they would meet in the 2nd round of the P12 tournament in a game that could have big NCAA tournament implications.
Tomorrow in the American, Tulsa plays at WSU in a game Tulsa could win the regular season title outright and Houston host Memphis in a game Memphis has to have to keep their tournament hopes alive.
bottom line there are some teams that's on the bubble that's not going to want to see any teams other then the predicted favorites to win. - if there is - -they are screwed.- -any upsets sure doesn't help Wichita State and other teams such a that
Wichita St. needs a win today for any upset to be relevant for their tournament hopes. If they don't win today at home against Tulsa, they will be flat out off the bubble regardless of what anyone else does this weekend or in their conference tournaments and they will have to win the AAC tournament to get the automatic bid. You can't claim a win against Oklahoma as your best win and get an at large bid.
I could give a dm if they need an upset or not - - they suck
You're the one who specifically mentioned WSU as not wanting to see bid stealers win. All I said was they needed to beat Tulsa for any of those potential upsets to be relevant for WSU since a loss to Tulsa pretty well knocks them off the bubble and into the have to win their tournament to get in group.
look I'm not here to have another debate go back and forth with you. WICHITA STATE SUCKS you understand that I understand that. Not gonna ruin my day by been to good of a day time to let it go make more out of it then what it is. So with that being said I'm done about Wichita State for now ok - is that ok?
I'm getting ready to go out and celebrate another Big 12 Championship with my friends so anyways let's just agree to look forward to the tournament with the boys
Oh something I forgot to mentioned on our boys accomplishment this season - - went undefeated on the road. - -
Evey time Texas Tech challenged us late today - -we came up with that huge response. -- ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
