    @Texas-Hawk-10 okay. Well I personally disagree. But you can stay. And you don’t even have to shut up. How’s that?.. Smh

    Of course you do because all you know how to do is shit on 18-20 year old kids.

    This circle jerk here is why I didn’t login for a year.

    Doesn’t get like this too often. Rarely on game threads especially for which I’m thankful. I can guarantee there’s other similar sites right now where WW3 is starting for about the 28th time this season.

    I guarantee the phog is unreadable right now.



  • Damn . I can only hope we have a good run in the tourney… but this team are flawed, and not sure Self has figured out what to do with these guys.

    Even my faith In Self is shaken. Seriously

    This whole season has really thrown me for a loop. I look forward to KU ball all damn year, and now I’m really struggling

    Talk about major disappointment

    Damn



  • Hopefully we have more then 1 game left. Tonight’s game wont make that happen



  • Derosa, I start to go into the tremors when I hear that name because of 2015.



  • Iowa St was plus 15 from 3 and plus 10 from the line. Hard to overcome that.



  • Haters will hate, but this has been a horrible season for KU. This team just has little to no identity.



  • Does this put us on the 4 line? Or was it 3 either way after getting to this game?



  • Its amazing how poor this team is at shooting from every area of the court

    Seriously I think he has something against Kansas at this point.



  • @cragarhawk legs is a pussy excuse. We rested our starters plenty yesterday when ISU didnt.

    Couldn’t agree more. Losing Doke hurt that. Without him this team does nothing well.

    Damn

    This wouldn’t be the first season that felt like Self was throwing things at the wall hoping something would stick.

    At least to me, the 15/16 season felt like that for sure.



  • @cragarhawk

    4 I believe. I dont think beating 2 teams not making the tourney helped us eniugh



  • Overall, they actually over achieved with all the handicaps on and off the court



  • This is a long thread. Maybe I missed it. Why isn’t McCormack playing?



  • Bill didn’t care if we won. Top 4 seed here we come



  • @Gorilla72

    I guess sending a message.



  • We will be in the West?

    Self went small.

    Is Dedric inefficiently scoring against athletic defenders an identity?



  • Couldn’t hit a three to save our lives

    1-2 and 1-4 … 3pt



  • approxinfinity said:

    They will be a 4 seed and if they somehow make it to the second weekend will get absolutely undressed by any 1 seed.



  • Well. After tonight we’ll be ranked about 150th in 3-point percentage in D1. When our legs are rested we should probably work on that.

    Damn

    Not having three key players from last years final four team is why we have what we have. The roster is top five good but really hard to win big games without those guys.



  • truehawk93 said:

    This was the game today. 3-18



  • Great timing for the clowns and they got us on their night.



  • Good thing self signed bucket getters. Too bad he will still play guys that can’t shoot in front of them

    Probably amazing the season is as successful as it was considering that. And this team would still be really damn good with Doke. :’(

    I bumped the Marcus Garrett thread recently fyi.



  • Happy with the 2nd half effort honestly. We at least made them make luck shots. Weiler babbs and shayoks junk really hurt. Fouls and not called fouls as well



  • 4 seed isn’t awful for this group. If you consider the body of work since Dokes went out it’s probably actually a gift



  • I got nothing for Garrett. I don’t get that kid.



  • @BShark

    I know. I love the kid but he just doesnt do enough. Basketball is a game of making shots



  • ESPN is happy to slob on Zion now until selection show



  • cragarhawk said:

    They’re fortunate they didn’t get worse. They could easily be a 6-7 seed, but as I said during a bracketology post, our resume is too good and we were guaranteed no less than a 4-5 seed.



  • cragarhawk said:

    I also bumped the 13-8 thread! lol



  • Garrett and dedric missing layup after layup was huge.



  • @cragarhawk

    I agree. We can make the Sweet 16 or go home during the week. Whichever door these guys choose will not surprise many



  • And look it’s not Garrett’s fault that he plays as much as he does.



  • Well. We’re probably not good enough to go too deep in the tournament this season but I think we are capable of screwing up the tournament for other teams. Like Duke or Kentucky.



  • BeddieKU23 said:

    They’ll be ready and as most have said, they will likely be Sweet 16. We all know they have the ability to play E8. But that will definitely be a long shot. I’ve never seen a team with little to no fight. Then when they fight, it’s ugly. It looks like they don’t even know how to fight.



  • Garrett isn’t the best outside shooter. But it isn’t though we got a stable full of them sitting there waiting to come in.



  • HighEliteMajor said:

    @wissox I like that … what’s the record for winning either the regular season league title or the conference tournament in the same year? This would be 15 if we did. Okie St won it the year before our reg. season streak started.

    HEM is an Idiot



  • KirkIsMyHinrich said:

    Um…



  • Garrett’s 0-2 from 3 had very little impact, Garrett’s 2-10 (all from inside 4 feet) on 2s and 1 for 4 from line was trouble. Sometimes the ball just doesn’t go in the home I suppose. No pressure next could be positive.



  • I honestly cannot see any of our guys going to the nba. Not one. Maybe de Sousa goes pro somewhere. He got totally jobbed.

    Scandal, doke out, Vick comes back, then leaves, ncaa using Kansas as a scapegoat by over punishing de Sousa, Grimes really not what we were hoping for, garret hurt, we lose the 12 championship, and,., Moore- we have Moore playing minutes. He does not fit on our team, we (Self) should be able to do better than Moore.

    just sooooo disappointed.

    And after we lose in the tourney (really doesn’t matter which round for me at least, hopefully we get to second weekend) then there is the endless wait til next season.

    Sorry just in a really crappy mood.



  • KU’s best shot at winning a S16 game is getting Virginia the 1 seed. KU can’t outscore the other 3 projected 1 seeds.



  • Need to enjoy what whatever tournament games we get this year. May not get any next year. Keep that in mind



  • @Bosthawk I hear you. This season has been disappointing, after such a good and promising start. In an odd way it seems like my personal life has followed a similar path. This is just one of those times where you have to be strong and keep moving forward.



  • Joe “the Leprechaun” Lunardi has KU in the East as a 4 seed. I would not be surprised if this win for ISU bumps them from a 5 to a 4 seed after winning the B12 tourney. They will be rewarded.

    KU - Rd 1 Salt Lake City v. Northeastern

    Purdue

    Wisconsin

    Virginia Tech

    These are all 4 seeds. I don’t think the upper seeds are going to change. Many bubble teams will change. I don’t think KU could get worse than East coast, except maybe West coast. East coast is actually better.
