How do you think boosters feel that ponied up millions for this feel. Those are the ones that should >really be pissed.
Imagine donating your hard-earned money to college-age kids for a sport. If that is your priority in life, I have ZERO pity for you. If you have money to blow, there are many more noble causes out there.
Sorry to all you young guys, but sports peaked about 25 years ago.

Does his family really think scouts like this? Boozer and dybantsa are BALLING right now and they don't have anywhere near the alleged family circus that DP has. I think most of us would probably think dybantsa's family would've been more annoying entering college but hey, they haven't said anything and he goes out there and drops 20 and 5 every night. I do agree that visually, he didn't look anywhere near 100% when he played NC State and Missouri(rim pressure was non existent compared to HS DP) but my guess is he could gut it out if it were the tournament

I just want to publicly state that whoever came up with the whole NIL program is probably the antichrist

@BeddieKU23 Need contracts. He shouldn't be getting a dime right now. Should only be paid when he plays.

@BigBad I sometimes wish that football were not a thing so that every other mens sport would get more funding. But that is not footballâs fault or womens sportsâ fault. Just tired of the money dictating everything.

I think DP is definitely injured to some extent he has not been even remotely explosive in a KU uniform. We just have to hope at some point he plays the game we are paying him millions to do. I still think as my PT friend has said playing on limited minutes and working thru the tightness is his best option. To me if he doesnât start playing itâs safe to label him and his family as thieves. They pretty much stole the NIL money at that point and should be held accountable for such IMO. Makes a guy wonder how the rest of the team feels about him. Iâd be calling him a baby back B**** every day if I was on the team.

@kjayhawks2.0 imo you got it backwards. Last year I resented Hunter for PLAYING and getting paid millions to be completely meh while we had a top 5 big on the bench behind him.
I donât think anyone should resent DP for not playing to date because if anything it has allowed other guys larger minutes and opportunities to showcase and grow at a Blue Blood, and we have the right guys to make that a good thing.
This wonât hold true all season but to date I dont see any reason guys should be negative about DP

âHeâs wondering if he doesnât have either something genetically wrong at this point or itâs BS. The whole ordeal makes zero sense to him in the slightest.â
Yup, this pretty much sums up my thinking. the whole ordeal makes no sense. Somethingâs amiss and us fans are getting the runaround. If heâs truly injured in some way, I respect that. Heal up. But cramps are not an injury (if itâs cramps). Thatâs an imbalance in your body. Shouldnât take a team of scientists to sort that out. Players are competitive and wanna play. Weirdness.

See Iâm in disagreement with 99% of the fan base, last season Hunter got the ball and had 3-4 guys surrounding him instantly. If that team had any remote threat of a scoring guard, they probably get to the Final Four. Our guards this season are light years better than the last 2 years.

@rockchalkjayhawk Listening todays media conference after last night game is proof to me that Coach Self has absolutely no say in Darryn's whole ordeal. They got hi by the B - - - -
Self was talking about some time line then press sats some like an d Bill says oy YA, oh YA THE PARENTS have the say for sure have a day and Bill says and I agree they want him at 100 % & Bill says Darryn wants out there, and he wants out there bad.
Bottom line for me is that this whole situation is that Parents & his Agent & any ball handlers all calling the shots-- -- not Darryn and not Self & it's not calling any shots what IT IS ---Darryn get kicked in the Ass by people's comments , Delf is reading script on how he is suppose to answer questions about when he will return, Like now he says he is really close , but just not quite there.
I think this will continue and at best he plays about one half of Conference games or they shut him down totally
