WVU vs Kansas Chat - It's payback time!
-
Perry’s better
-
I’m not sure what we learned tonight other than if we play hard we can pull a game out. I guess it was thesame last game as well. So outside of hard play, what is our identity going forward?
You’d hope we’d come back around with some 3 point shooting confidence but how do we get there?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 I thought you didn’t live in Lawrence!? You know somebody
-
Hugs to all, ready to party! Chip in and get tickets for big 12? So happy
-
@Crimsonorblue22 What’s the word?
-
Wonder what Huggy’s thinkin right now?
-
@VailHawk Damn it…I missed out on another $25Gs
-
@Blown I agree I wanted to turn this one off, I just refused to believe we wouldn’t grind this one out and win it some how. I don’t know what to make of this West Virginia team ? They seem terrible but their depth and full court press is brutal.
-
@VailHawk “Damn, that 25K would have beena good party.”
-
@Bwag Our identity is that we don’t have an identity. Check out Jaybate’s “Bad Ball” post.
-
Huggy is a Hardass. I bet he respected Kansas’ toughness. He can also walk away knowing he really got the better of Kansas for most of the game, without his two ball handlers. I’m glad we have him in the big 12
-
Hey everyone…Stop what you’re doing…I have an urgent message for you…UK IS 30-0 At least ESPN is making it known anyway.
-
the 25k is nice but I bet he’s PISSED they lost
-
good to know!
-
@Blown I’m mixed…I think he tends to be cheap and dirty at times.
-
-
@betterfireE seemed like we were forming an identity and then HCBS decided he didn’t like the direction I guess. Ever since he made the “fools gold” comment we have just been lost as a team.
-
@betterfireE I’ve read it, but i don’t know if its’ succeessful when we’re in a 1 and done tournament scenarioa. the psychology is all different at that point.
-
well done!
-
Well. They pulled it off. Somehow. 11 straight
-
@truehawk93 He definitely coaches bruise ball, which I hate. But if it helps Kansas prepare, then great.
-
I’d like to see NCAA go to 4 or 5 or 6 or 7 refs per game. Whatever it takes so they can actually call a consistent game, the way it is supposed to be played, though.
-
G_ _ D _ _ _ _. My heart can’t take another one like that.
##RCJGKU##
11 is heaven.
-
I love the ESPN headlines tonight:
UK rallies…
KU survives…
-
I have SERIOUS reservations about bad ball…but it’s all we got at this point…
-
@Blown Just need competent refs instead of rec center refs.
-
did they call a bad game? I was unavoidably detained until the under 8:00 TO in the 2nd half
-
@brooksmd and understand their role; they are not part of the show even though that may be hard for them to believe or accept.
-
that’s my biggest pet peave about refs is when they think everyone came to watch them
-
@VailHawk my comment is a generalization toward the poor officiating I’ve seen over the last 5-6 years. But yes, I thought it was poor and inconsistent on both sides of the ball. The play where the point guard for WvU reached out and slapped Mason’s hand down and no call was made took it to an entire new level for me.
-
@Bwag Yeah, but it would be nice to play hard the whole game.
-
Calls were very inconsistent, but at least in the OT they kept calling fouls.
And there’s something to be said for a team that hits their FTs when everything else is going wrong.
BTW, when Oubre went out, I was pretty sure the game was over. Somehow, we survived with Perry and Cliff out of the game. Not sure I would have believed it was possible.
-
Im really glad we won the title outright. And didnt have a 4 way tie lol. They wouldve had to change the commercial. “4 true champions?” I envision this said in Ron Burgundy voice
-
@5541-james I think that’s bullshit. We’re a team that wins. I get it, I get it… threes are pretty.
-
@VailHawk said:

No consistency either way. Like freshmen refs or rec center refs. You know if you’re not gonna call a foul don’t call it either way. If you call it, call it both ways. No wonder the kids look confused out there when fouls are called.
-
@bskeet And Selden with a bad wheel.
-
There is a possibility that Self saw in practices what the team’s 3 pt shooting was really like, and we happened to catch aberrations on tv. It’s hard to understand the data if you don’t have access to all of it.
-
@brooksmd Yes! That too! Team is pretty banged up. Wish we could skip the game in Norman. Ugh.
-
0-15 3pt%. That is how we lost games to UNI, VCU, etc. Pulled it off in this one.
-
@Blown At the line.
-
Do they phone it in against OU? These guys are obviously exhausted. They are losing all the dead leg statistics: Rebounds, turnovers, jump shots.
-
@Blown Time for the bench to get some PT.
-
@betterfireE it may well be BS. But the fact is. Since that comment. We have shot and made substantially fewer 3s.And thats no BS. Whether it has anything to really do with it or not? Who knows
-
@Blown That’s a good point. I guess this was a good game… It didn’t really feel like one, but I guess it was good… not bad. [I’m trying to convince myself. I want to believe.]

This post is deleted!

@Blown Yeah just the OT. The brandy’s out in the shop & I cant stand espn. Simon is one of the few I can listen to as he does not come across like a total effin know it all like most of their color guys. He’s too young to be disrespectful to traditions yet. The dish is a minute or two behind the radio plus I like to listen to the Self show, senior speech, post game & ugh, did I say brandy’s in the shop? Plus I like that damn cigar afterwards too. Hard to turn em loose. Picked that up watching old Red Auerbach & his Celtic champions & older Grandpa Charlie when I was a young lad. Besides, Davis & Gurley have a whole different level of excitement when they call a Jayhawk game. Max was the same damn way. Sounds like a puss, but I literally had tears the final night Max called a game. Only other time I did that was when Wilt came back for his Jersey retirement. Special times for this old Hawkfan. And another conference title leads the nation again just like the # of all Americans. I think we’ll have another next year in Perry. Sure hope he’s OK but have not heard from Self yet.
-
This might be the best ft% team Self has had @ 71%. Tea shot 45 ft tonight. That is the strength it appears to be playing to of late.
-
PHOF,
-
I just keep watching this over and over…it’s nice to see Mari cutting down the net for #11
-
CBS is saying B12 is overrated… Wally S saying no one wanted to win the game tonight… KU didn’t want to win… That WVU gave the game to KU.
They just shat all over KU and the B12… and said the only team that looks like it can make it to the FF is ISU.
Booo.
