  So Cokley and Lee look like complete studs against GW. Whereas they looked, you know, pretty bad against us.

  The choice for the 2008 Orange Bowl was not between KU and Missouri but between KU and Oklahoma… MU had lost two games and was out of the running. The Big 12 and the Orange Bowl reached and agreement to have Oklahoma replace Kansas in the Orange Bowl and the proposal was presented by Big 12 Commissioner Beebe to the BCS committee which rejected the proposal and kept KU; OU ended up in the Fiesta Bowl… It is generally acknowledge that Lou Perkins single handedly and through his contacts kept KU in the Orange Bowl and it became his biggest contribution as AD.

  @Barney Me too. That was perhaps the most bizarre ending to a pivotal game ever…in the midst of the Cold War no less.

  You can always tell when an OAD perimeter player has not yet played up to expectations. Posting focuses on specific athletic plays, like nasty dunks, rather than total points, total rebounds, trey percentage and scoring efficiency. But not to worry. Josh is coming along and if Self can keep giving him 15 FGAs per game for awhile, he will get untracked for a big game. The UAB game got him a highlight dunk, which is required for OAD branding, but not the kind of numbers needed for marketing buzz. So: Self will likely get him another branding game ASAP, so that Self can get back to developing the inside game we will need for balance in conference and post season. If Josh actually lacks a Trey, it could take 20 FGAs for a branding game. Either way, it will come.

  @HawkChamp The 15 FGAs suggests it was a brander on a night when Josh couldn’t quite get fully untracked. But we’ll know for sure in a while. If Self keeps giving Josh 15 FGAs every game, then we’ll know it wasn’t a brander.

  Really impressed with Svi’s ability to move his feet on defense. I think that has been the one area he’s improved the most to my eye. He’s not using his hands as much to stop a defender which he used to get called routinely for. The improved rebounding and taking better shots has made him an all around better player as others above mentioned. Keep it up young man

  I thought we played well for most of the game. The large lead we jumped out to was aided by their fumbling and bumbling around. Josh finally stayed out of foul trouble and was able to assert his presence for an entire game. The FT’s are concerning. Josh is the biggest contributor…he has been awful. Have to believe that he (and we) will improve.

  @Crimsonorblue22 Thanks, but I’ll just watch the game from here on out. 19-7 run by them puts me in a bad mood. Reverting to early season form on 3s puts me in a worse mood…

  @BShark said: @FarSideHawk said: Man, I forgot that Jerod is now at Stanford. Had been thinking how great it would be to see him back in AFH and what type of reception he’ll get. Bummer! We play Stanford this year in Allen and set up a 4 year series with them. Sacremento next year, then AFH again, then at Stanford. Awesome then! I see the Stanford game is less than 2 weeks away as well. Will be great to see Jerod Haase in Allen again. I was at KU 94-98, so the members of those teams hold a special place for me!

  UVA gave up 38 to Yale today… Just 38. Still a stingy defense that will keep them in games. Yale had scored 98 @ Washington last week which isn’t saying much. Romar routinely gives up 90 to YMCA’s. Yale is also missing its tournament darling for the year.

  Having top ten programs in football and basketball is a lot of fun. It really covers most of the year. Hoping that someday the Jayhawks will get there in football. Tough to do however.
