That’s why I always value kids who dunk given the ability…

@kjayhawks Calling our coaches SOB’s is something you could do but it’s not right.
Well I’m sorry but the way they have coached this season they deserve it. Just flat out stupid basketball
-
Boy, this team is really frustrating to watch.
We’re gonna have to break down why in a separate thread.
-
Looking back, how the heck we beat the devils?
-
@approxinfinity Hope he’s not around
He’s been given the best roster for multiple decades and delivered twice
Time to go live in FL and golf everyday
The fact he can’t get this squad playing well and guys played better at other top programs than ours tells me the game has passed him by
He will stick around - we will get bounced in sweet 16 with Kobe Bryant at guard because of some suspect minutes distribution - same stuff versus vcu in 2011, so on and so forth
-
Not sure why it is BS’s fault that no one can get a rebound or a layup, but sure, yeah, blame the coach. Roy Williams missed all those shots against Syracuse, too. Damn, this is easy.

They are young and it was super early
-
Shak is the mystery to me. Need defense. We shouldnt be acting like a football team with a separate offense and defense team. We need a blended team that can score.
-
@kjayhawks looooolzzz
-
@kuballin10 who got to decide BS got lifetime contract? i believe he’d call the shot, right?
-
@jay4ever he’s like me a bball junkie
Yesterday we were texting about loyal Chicago cause we were both watching
-
@mayjay He built this roster and coaches them every day for them to turn out the say lazy ass performance. Please enlighten me on how Bill isn’t accountable for this, this team is exactly what I said it would be with Juan (played great tonight), KJ and Hunt.
-
Hey well U Conn lost again today so there is that lmao

Was debating the same thing earlier. We were down 6 with a pure D team in the floor, except for Diggy. Weird.
-
@kjayhawks He cosches, evaluates in practice and is confident these are the best guys
I think he puts more emphasis on who’s good based on practice and not the actual games based on these last 2 years
-
no more needs to be said about Dickinson- -he has done proved the point

Right why was he taken out while he was a big part of them not scoring for 7 minutes. Can’t be Selfs fault for pulling I guess Rylen and AJ must have had a great practice week and all the sudden learned to play defense smh
-
@jay4ever He hadn’t coached em yet
He runs in the locker room “we got guards” or maybe it was the interview
Guys shot the 3 with confidence
Oh and Hunter didn’t play the last what 10 minutes and Flory did great but people swear still to this day he isn’t good enough
-
Might drop out of the rankings for the first time in a long time. Probably still make the tourney to keep that streak alive. This team has regressed every week since the start. Concerning to say the least.
-
Seriously, this team looks like Div2 or HS team these past few games… i’m lost
-
Now eight losses-- - - -and then there is this - - -Houston - -Loss – -Texas Tech - - loss – -Arizona loss- - so that’s at least eleven losses
-
Ok im going to start a new thread about something
-
@approxinfinity get your popcorn ready, folks
-
@SlimShaddy54 we’re playing catch up with the Utes…
-
Will we even win 20 games to keep that streak alive?
-
@kjayhawks what streak? another achievement for BS? the most active HC who’s got most 20wins streak… gossh
-
just checked - -KU had been ranked FIRST in constitutive weeks in the top 25 at – --231 -Say good bye to that
-

I believe its at least 20 wins in a season since 1989
-
i don’t care if we lost to better teams, but with bright sides, like different style, improved rebounding, offense… not lost like this to least winning team. sucks…
-

This team is going to completely erase a lot of Kansas basketball history. It’s because we are lazy and poorly coached

Self can only repeat the same message so many times. At some point, the players on the floor have to make a decision if they give a damn or not about their pride and effort. If they’re fine with collecting their NIL checks and that’s the most important thing to them, then this is what we’ll get.
-
@kjayhawks wish ewe could yank these over paid bums NIL cause they sure don’t deserve it. – They are getting paid now - -this program at the present is in /Shambles
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 Or maybe just maybe the players getting all the minutes aren’t that good
And the system employed isn’t as well
Pair those with quick hooks and favoritism and Bill gets what he made
Blaming it on nil is a poor loser mentality as my boy Jeter would say - losers always have excuses
Reality - his favorite players aren’t actually good at basketball. They get all the minutes, they have all the experience, he built the roster around them and we have more L’s than ever before in Self’s history here
But yeah let’s blame NIL for this even though Self hand picked the squad
-
@jay4ever said in Ute came to the right place:

Cuz I was at the game! I’m nearly undefeated.
-
@kuballin10 I know dam well that your not going to actually try and say Griffen and Storr are better I know your not that stupid
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 Right but it’s same story, Hunt doesn’t attempt to play defense and never has at any point in his collegiate career, he’s lazy as hell on the glass. KJ super under sized big, struggles to get rebounds and shots off in the paint rendering him useless most nights without a jump shot. Juan was pretty good tonight but he’s very limited athletically and isn’t aggressive enough offensively. AJ Storr was notorious for lacking effort thru out the season. Zeke Mayo can’t play defense never has/ never will. The jury has been on this for years! Please explain to me how when this is known by the coach none of it is his fault. It’s called accountability he built this roster and it arguably the worst in 40 years
-

Yes got to change some contracts, if you don’t play hard you don’t get paid. If anyone one on here showed for work time after time disengaged and not getting it done, They’d be fired. This is a job in a sense for them, they ain’t doing fire them. I’d rather play walk ons that try and get beat by 50 than these goons just half assing it repeatedly
-
Only solace is that we get closer and closer to senior day and wishing good riddance to a majority of the team
-
Let my 9 year old stay up and watch this one. 3:31 left in the game, 62-60 them, Hunt fouls a terrible shooter. We sub out the only guy going for rebounds. I tell my son we probably just lost because even if he misses we can’t rebound with this group. Sure enough it happens and they get 2 points out of it. I hate myself for being right most the time but for as much as a few of you give me grief, about 95% of what I say happens.

Did I say Self was blameless? No, I did not. Is Bill Self 100% responsible? Again, no he is not. At what point do the players bear any responsibility for their play on the court? This where I take major issues with you and others views because y’all never place the blame on the players when they play with zero effort, it’s always Bill Self’s fault for not properly motivating his team. So again, at what point do these players bear any responsibility for their lack of effort on the court?
And yes, I do believe NIL is a factor in that self motivation. Who are the two players that have been criticized the most for lack of effort this season? Do you really think it’s a coincidence that Dickinson and Storr are also the highest paid NIL players on the team and also the two most often criticized for a lack of effort on the floor. They have their money, they know they aren’t NBA players at this point, and that jas shown bright and clear with their effort at times this season.
So yes, Bill Self gets the blame for the roster construction, but the players take 100% of the blame for their lack of effort on the court.
You can even go back and check what I said about this team before the season when someone else here was trying to rip me a new one for saying this team was only slightly better than last season’s when he was claiming this team was going to make a deep run despite ignoring me pointing out the lack of NBA talent on the roster this season.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 I like your response and no it isn’t a 100% on Self for sure several times on this thread alone I got on the players. Especially Hunts effort tonight but IMO when you build this roster knowing Hunt and AJ were both like that last year and still include them on it it’s more on the staff. I’d put about 65%-75% of this on Self/staff especially after what was said after last season by him. As I said before his mouth wrote a check his ass couldn’t cash.
-
He’s washed up and dying on his sword. If it wasn’t for me wanting to see Darryn Peterson and Oats having a large buyout…I’d recommend turning the program over.
-
@TYOHawk I have never been this frustrated with any KU BB coach in my life. That being said I think we give Bill next season as long as Dp still comes and Flory stays. He has done enough to have a few bad seasons. If Dp/Fkory jump ship it’s over and we need to move on from him.
-
This is perhaps the least entertaining Jayhawk team I’ve ever experienced and one of the worst teams. I’ve been watching for 60 years.

We are in the pace and space era and we really run lineups with 3 non shooting bigs and a non shooter at PG.
It’s the type of thing you would laugh at happening in another program but it’s become normal here. It almost feels like a middle finger to the fan base at times with some of the lineup decisions.
I saw a Dajuan/Shak/Diggy/KJ/Flory lineup tonight man. Who is supposed to score or create shots in this lineup?

Exactly. I about lost it with that lineup at that point in the game.
-
Fun with the box score.
This pretty much sums up the lack enthusiasm tonight:
REBOUNDING
Utah 46 KU 36
OFFENSIVE REBOUNDING
Utah 16 KU 6
But just for fun I’ll throw in:
FG %
Utah 36.5% KU 40%
-
@approxinfinity said in Ute came to the right place:
I think what @BeddieKU23 said after the Houston loss is proving to be true. Season killer kind of loss.
The Creighton/Missouri week was the first sign this was a broken bunch. The Houston loss just kind of cemented how disconnected this group is together.
-
So we were the biggest win in Ute history and they didn’t even storm the court. Guess it really wasn’t a big deal after all.
