Faith!

He’s right… but we gave away our lead over the last turn and are approaching the finish line in a draw with many others in the running.
Let’s hope our guys have what it takes for a late burst!
I am still hopeful.

But if you stumble too much the end becomes a sprint…
-
I like this statement from Svi…
-
I’ll take our odds…this team seems to do its best when their backs are against the wall.

It has been great to watch these two grow into men. Svi from the corner is as money this year as B Rush ever was. And the effort he has been playing with on D the last two games has been fantastic.

Svi says they aint losing at home again

But B Rush was an ELITE defender. An element this team is definitely missing.

@BigBad TRUE

I am thankful that we are were we are even with the 3 losses so far. Think positive like ESPN here.
Time for Mitch to contribute. Next man up. The freakin “…only team in the country with an average RPI win higher than 100.”

Anybody see or listen to hawk talk? Coach talks what guys like, withey, Mario little and releford would have given to have started for KU. Then he talked what the Eagles locker room was like after the win- nothing about themselves, it was about playing for each other! He put it much better than that. There was much more.

We’ll have to see what more we can improve going into March Madness, but I have my reservations about the BigDance with this particular KU team.
BUT, the big fire under us right now is NUMBER 14…Think about it: We’ll contend for a F4 almost every year, but if this team doesn’t take that record from UCLA, then they’ll have to live with that fact, that they ended the streak. Jason King’s book Beyond the Streak mentions many quotes from recent KU players about “not wanting to be the team that broke the streak”. I’m sure some of us here have read those quotes.
I know, I know that we’ve debated what’s worth more, conf championship vs NC…I personally dont get in that debate, as they are 2 separate goals, won differently. All Im saying is take care of #14, and it may set a record that stands for another 30-40 years. It ties together ALL of Self’s players, you know they’re watching, as their efforts built it to 13….
Worry about NC after reg season ends, although all the little Self details (that this team is sporadic about doing), will help get to a F4, if they can improve.
I want to believe Svi about not losing at home, but gotta beat OU, WVU at AFH, & TxTech on the road. Hate to get to a final last chance saloon/Stalingrad win-or-14dies scenario…but we’ve come so far…(remember TRob’s swat of Pressey, and EJ39 game in Ames). Make those battles mean so much MORE now!
