@icthawkfan316 The proverbial Bill Self dog house? You’re joking, right? Let’s see how many I can remember have been in and out of the Bill Self dog house. 1)Sherron Collins was in and out, mostly out, but Self made sure he was aware of the dog house, 2) Tyshawn Taylor was in it a good portion of the time, 3) Xavier was in the dog house from time to time, 4) The most notorious was EJ. I think Marcus Morris visited it from time to time. I also believe Selby may have entered it a time or two during his short, meaningless experience at KU. Traylor has been in and out for different reasons. Right now, I’d say Landen Lucas is locked up in Self’s dog house. I really hope Lucas comes up big soon.
I didn’t mean to imply this “dog house” translated into earned pt. I just think Self allows players to choose or decide what they want to do from game to game. IF they decide to play and earn the pt, they get pt. Self’s dog house is simply his way of showing them that he’s the coach and it’s his way or the highway. I’m not taking anything from the ‘guy’ whose been doing ‘it’ from the beginning. But if Greene can continue to develop, he’s going to be special. I love his length, shot, and his talent. He’s good and he knows it too. His ego needs checked, but I love a KU player to get a bit cocky and back it on the court. I think he’s got a good attitude and wants to play Bill Self ball and do what is best for the team. Remember, they’re all young and eager. They all make mistakes.
I think BG may be clutch. The guy thrives on being in a position to make shots. He talked trash to OU? I love it. It doesn’t hurt to get into the head of your opponent. It didn’t work all that well. But if that pushes his competitive trigger and he does it tastefully, let’s see what he can do. I would rather have him in the game than Graham. Graham is good, but Greene is a sophomore. I’ll take his experience over Graham.
