  And we’re all waiting with baited breath, and in the end - and they need to wrap it up already! - we will (Coach Marco says) receive what amounts to being denied toilet paper after taking a dump, but allowing us to quickly jump in the shower.

  Kegler has had several issues since getting to College. No surprise to anyone, probably even to Baylor fans

He could make just as much or more money, not have to deal with the commies and mommies. No, there he would just have to deal with malcontents and divas.

  @Woodrow I agree, The NCAA tournament is supposed to return to Wichita next season. I was able to go for the first time last time it was there and i enjoyed the hell outta it. The NCAA knowing that this has been going on since UK was doing it the 50s and UCLA in the 60s, while continuing to slap wrists and let it go on is half the issue. I said something about it last season, most of drive 5 mph over the speed limit because have never been stopped for it. If I started getting tickets for a 70 in a 65, I wouldn’t do it anymore.

  BShark said: The NCAA moves too slow for a post season ban this year imo. Ya Norlander and Dodd = both said they don’t think you will see any thing for this season - - said it will be likely in 2020 if there is a ban and or sanctions. Long said KU ha their list of allegations/charges - -and now he said KU has 90 days for they’re rebuttal - -said they were going to take they’re time and that the fans are going to have to understand it will be a time we don’t hear anything -KU won’t be able to talk about it - - Self won’t be able to talk about it. Said he hopes the KU fans will understand He said people going will be talking a lot about us and he hopes the KU fans knows that we are running the program the right way and fully feel that when it’s done they will win this case.

  FarmerJayhawk said: @BShark pretty sure Harris is a partial qualifier. In reading between the lines in Self’s comments about him redshirting, “We are very excited to have Dajuan,” Self said. “He’s going to be in a limited capacity and this will give him the opportunities to focus on books, focus on getting stronger and put himself in the position to be a contributor right off the bat next year.” As a PQ, he won’t be able to practice until spring semester (hence why he wasn’t at boot camp). So no dice on him having a chance to play this year. Makes perfect sense. Thanks.

  HighEliteMajor said: From the Athletic as well: Azubuike is averaging 74% on his free throws in practice so far. During the off season, Azuibuike, with the help of the staff, converted to an underhanded, Rick Barry-style of shooting from the line. Self said, “The change has been incredible. We keep wondering to ourselves, ‘why didn’t we do this sooner’?” In fact, Azubuike paraphrased the age-old thoughts attributed to Albert Einstein, “Insanity is doing the same thing, the same way, and hoping things change.” ***Sorry, it’s all just a dream. I woke up just as I imagined Marcus Garrett shooting the ball like George Gervin instead of my 7th grade neighbor kid. only problem is - - BIG DIFERENCE between shooting free throws at practice and in a 2 point high stakes game with crowd going nuts lol - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

  @dylans Duke with Okafor/Jones/Winslow won the title with freshman fueling the team. There’s enough evidence out there to suggest you can win in several ways. The freshman way has worked although usually there’s still a vet or two that plays a big role. Last year was a big thumbs up for the veteran squads. I think that trend continues into this year if I was making a prediction now. A ton of talent is gone from last year spread throughout every conference. I have a hard time picking 5-10 teams that I think will be good because there was so much roster movement everywhere. No excuses for KU this year with a veteran squad

  jhawk7782 said: @Marco Losing to Coastal Carolina probably cost us a chance to Bowl this season. Love to be wrong and after beating BC, maybe gives this team enough momentum and confidence to pick off a few BIG12 teams this year. AGREE , Think if we can win 4-5 games - you got to feel like been a good start this year. I feel we have a good shot at WV , - - Tech - and I know people will laugh , BUT I still think we have a shot at K-State - -we win those 3 there is our 5. - -I know K-State looks pretty solid , but just feel like that we might just be able to get it done , got them here is a plus - -just got to get the fans in the stands to help support the guys . We need to show our backing for the games, the guys notice that whether some think so or not - this team is going to get this done - -w got some pieces in place - fan support is another piece - -I think 4-5 wins is within range for this year - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

  HighEliteMajor said: @BShark @drgnslayr I want to be really clear that I’m not anti-Hudy. In fact I’m very pro-Hudy. I wish she would have stayed. I just see her as a relatively replaceable cog. All I know is we are getting real close to KU hoops again. And we are loaded for a NC run. Can’t believe we are less then two months away from tip off against Duke - not sure if everyone knows - - probably do BUT we got the early game - - 6 O’Clock

  HighEliteMajor said: So based on the BYU decision, how does KU escape? The BYU decision, if I’m looking at this from the KU bubble, seems to pave the way for the results we are fearing. This was activity by a booster. In fact, Gassnola was much closer to our staff than the boosters in BYU’s situation. Gassnola was relied upon for extensive, hands on recruiting help. Anyone think the NCAA did this to BYU as a purposeful precursor to the punishment decisions related to the Adidas issues? Gassnola as we all know doesn’t have to talk to the NCAA. But the NCAA can pay him for info. But he can’t change his story so to speak from sworn testimony, e.g., Self didn’t know. Based on the BYU deal, the “Self didn’t know” defense is a weak one. I think we have to wait for the potential NOA. It did cross my mind that this decision was in part a chess move to set recent precedent. There are levels to this as far as potential damage and escape. A lack of institutional control charge would definitely hurt. Any language implicating Self or staff members as complicit with the Preston/De Sousa situations would be headlines we don’t want to see. The part about Gassnola & Addidas is complicated. It wasn’t proven in testimony that Gassnola was acting under the “permission” of KU/Self to recruit right? Correct me if I’m wrong there. But the assumption is this was the way things got done and maybe that is the way its done across the country. If they dig into that can of worms I have no idea where that goes. The NCAA being denied access to information from the case makes it appear like they will hit a dead end. How do you see that decision impacting what may come?
