I think any exec that dug a little would see that the story now presented about him being gunshy after full body cramps (in addition to the hamstring issues) will see that it fits with what they already have known about the kid for a long time. He's a winner and competitor and didn't wish for any of that. Ultimately I'm not sure DP was a good fit for a Kansas roster with 3.5 other guys that Bill trusted, and not sure that Kansas was the most confortable fit for him. Had he been at a school like Duke, flush with other high profile talent that the announcers could fixate on, he may have healed in peace without the BS scrutiny. In the end, if we goes number 1, maybe the case could be made that by taking the harder route, DP had to show how tough he was. I think he passed the test.

I say what I feel, what I observe. I take off the Crimson and Blue glasses and I don't drink the Crimson and Blue kool-aid.
Kansas is a program on the decline. That's not my opinion,  that's a fact. Kansas men's basketball had not lost 11 games in a season since 1989! The past three years we've lost 11, 13 and 11. We have been bounced from the NCAA Tournament after the first or second games (against generally far inferior opponents) multiple timnes. That's right off the kuathletics.com website.  Facts. Not opinions.   So people can say I'm naysayer. Say that I'm negative. Say whatever they want to say. Have me banned. Chances are I'm just telling the truth and nobody wants to hear it.

@BShark Owen Freeman, HS teammate of TCU guard Brock Harding, the guy who bricked FT's the other night helping us win.  Moline HS, Illinois state champs, a really strong champion in a state with many great teams.

Two legit P4 guys would definitely be very hard to beat in actual highschool ball (ie no academy "schools").

Man it hurts to see Marko has broken up as he was after the game. Say what you want about his game, but he really, really cares and loves being a Jayhawk.

For sure I get on these guys fairly often but there is a difference between pointing out a bad play and hating a player for mistakes on the court. I loved KJ and Juan as people just don’t believe they should’ve ever been starting for the KU basketball team.

we had 21 offensive rebounds and 4 second chance points. Wow!

Yep.  This defined the game and it's stunning.
If you look at this team's record with these remarkably anomalistic, highly improbable and statistically aberrational numbers, you might be tempted to throw a couple of these losses out.
They are pretty good if you take away the weirdness.  Or is it weirdness?  What is the norm?
It's just hard to know whether this team can still gel and harden and normalize into its full potential at this point.

The local establishment I was at last night (which has $3.50 all drafts on Mondays, hell of a deal) was absolutely belligerent in the best ways during the game. Nothing compares to Mass St during Final Fours but it was crazy for a Monday night in February.

Mass street is always wild on game days. We couldn’t even get in anywhere to eat Saturday after 11 am.

Nice post!
Yes... I think he is sort of next year's Bidunka we need to retain.
He doesn't have Bidunka's energy, which will be sorely missed, but he has a lot more offensive skills.  I just saw an interview with him where he mentions they are trying to get him to play more aggressive, and push most into the paint for his baskets.
Bidunka is still very rough on the offensive side.
I think his draft stock is still pretty low.  I expect him to stay in college another year or so.
I'm not even sure about Bidunka's draft stock.  It's going to be a competitive year this year, and next year should not be this competitive (but who knows).
I also discovered we might challenge Mel's eligibility to try to keep him another year!  Wow!

If they can't pull their heads out of their backside in a year, they shouldn't be governing college basketball!
Must my humble opinion.
