  HighEliteMajor said: @FarmerJayhawk Again, I don’t think our NCAA venom is entirely well placed. The suspension for Wiseman was relatively predictable. See Bilas’ comments before the suspension was released. We’ve seen guys get suspensions based on the improper benefits, and that it’s based on the amount received. The NCAA always requires payback. And if you review the terms, it’s very flexible, almost permitting him to skate on some of it. https://ftw.usatoday.com/2019/11/jay-bilas-explains-whats-next-for-james-wiseman-in-battle-against-ncaa @ajvan The reason, I think, is because of the facts with Wiseman were well developed and known. When there is more info to be added, investigated, etc., that takes more time. Silvio situation was less than clear with all the denials and b.s. out there. Same with Preston. Wiseman, there were no real denials of what took place if I understood it right. The issue was just what would occur because of it. But I’m not defending the time delays. However, the ridiculous delays we saw with the NCAA in some of our cases – Diallo sticks out to me – were really a joke. My beef isn’t with the NCAA in this case. I believe it was open and shut, run of the mill eligibility stuff that they handled relatively quickly. My beef with the NCAA is they don’t follow their own precedents and sanctions vary widely between cases with very similar facts.

  @approxinfinity Good of you to play nice ,but that’s equivalent to saying KSU and WSU had good tourney runs recently. Making them relevant too. Nah. Indiana has an envious history, but hard times have become the norm. Hope they (and their mostly decent fan base) can become a power again as they seem to do it the right way.

  First off basketball is a game of runs, pretty much has been since the shot clock was implemented. Some of it as mentioned above is the age of the players, Evansville with a team full of upperclassmen beating UK last night is an example. That is also the reason we are seeing more upsets in March. The freedom of movement fouls and shorter shot clock also play a hand. In the NBA you’re not outta a game down 10 with 3 minutes to go because of the 24 seconds they get. I think KU hasn’t had team full of killers since 08 maybe 2011. We do have some tendencies to relax with a lead and a lot of that is on coaching IMO.

  Mack has a top 5 team this year, and a top 10 recruiting class. He is a fine coach, and would be on the short list if Needed.

  BeddieKU23 said: @BShark Also want to add the early returns on Tristan are nice. If he continues to have this role and produce he may not be here next season. I think its too early to predict anything but he was already on the radar for next season. He may be exceeding the timeline but we’ll see what happens when we get closer to Conference play Not worried about this but I don’t think he is a 4 year player anymore.

  @HighEliteMajor I totally agree. It’s an easy solution and one where we have the right personnel to accomplish it. I’m thinking Self is just trying to prove to himself (first) that he tried gallantly to keep the M2M. We will see how many games we have to be burned on the perimeter before the change takes place. I want to see if our coaches can actually “coach up” our guys to fix this. There is no reason why we can’t quickly be respectable on defense guarding the trey even from the 4 spot using a M2M. I can see us using the zone and M2M. And it is good to be able to mix things up. Then there will be some opponents with small, fast 4s who can drain the nets from trey. With those teams we might just start with the zone and keep it all game. It does feel like we are maybe placing too much energy in this area where we could make fast gains in a zone and then spend that extra time working on an offense that is in shambles. Losing to Duke by 2 is not the end of the world but our first home game, only winning by 12 against a team far below us was the real “eye opener.”
