On the bright side, whomever we get to play the 5 next year will be an upgrade over Hunter
-
You guys hate me that’s fine
Culture is really bad - let’s examine from the outside
Flory plays awesome against Duke final 10 minutes and when he starts puts up great numbers (Houston game)
Relegated to the bench and zeke likes a post about flory playing/starting more online
We have top nil, “goat” coach (eye roll) and starting 5 spot guaranteed to him
He’s leaving because he wasn’t developed, favoritism, culture/unfair treatment and style of play
Homers will say oh his handlers….thats an excuse from jaded fans
DP says he’s most excited to play with Flory…Flory just entered the portal. Will Wade and MANY others still taking shots at DP but yeah Townsend was completely normal. Eventually you guys will look back and be like oh heck kuballin wasn’t full of crap and saw things for how they actually were
Bama buddy texted me today, “A lot of chaos in Lawrence - we scored 113 and I know for a fact contact was made to DP’s people but he seems full fledged Adidas. Not sure if he ends up in Lawrence though hearing a ton of rumblings that aren’t good and center around how ya’ll play plus rotations this year. I know dudes are gone but it’s a real bad look”

That’s not a guarantee.
-
@kuballin10 I don’t hate you I just disagree with you about basketball on many things. I do agree we should have played Flory more last season.
-
Wellp. Thats the kicker for me.
-
If he can’t keep Peterson I’ll personally pack his bags out of Lawrence.
-
Well I rode with Coach till the cows came home-- well they are all in the barn now so-- Now I think it’s time Bill needs to go. This past season was a Costly one for sure, looks like we gonna be a bottom dweller if not careful. Cupboard is BARE

Broken trust and lack of developmental coaching…
This is the red flag for Self to shake up the coaching staff and hire a GM to manage NIL for the program.
-
This is on Bill Self at this point, he wouldn’t recruit over his “sons” as he calls them Juan and KJ. I said all year Flory deserves more minutes. What does that mean for Peterson who claimed he was most looking forward to playing with Flory. This could be the most catastrophic news to hit us in decades. I heard his camp was unhappy much of the year.
-
We might he able to keep him?

If he does leave remember that time in the season, that looms large if so

I’d die, but no.

@Jhawk69 I’ve been proven right for two years so not sure how you feel about that but glad we agree on flory

Dang what a 180! Welcome to the your head is above the sand club!

@kuballin10 try not to gloat too much. You dont want people to feel bad about agreeing with you, do you?

I’m going to abide by the golden rule right now but holy moly I need to log off
-
Good times keep on rolling. Lots of damage done this season
-
Friends we may end up a football school after all
-
Well, let’s sit back and pray Bill brings in a rebuilt, monster of a roster.
-
Wait, clueless question here:
Is Flory eligible to receive NIL riches? I thought foreign players were restricted?
-
This fanbase across various sites, including some here, are truly living down to some of the most negative stereotypes about KU fans being snobs. I don’t understand the ego and mentality it takes (including some here) to be more happy and gloating about potentially being right about the demise of Bill Self than caring more about having a successful team and program. To those people, all I have to say is fuck off, KU doesn’t need or want you as fans.
-
@kuballin10 No, the last two years prove we had problems but they don’t prove that your take on the cause of our problems is right.
-
Oh crap, I just heard the news about Flory. It was a gut punch out of the blue from my UCLA friend just now. Dammit, he was the one bright spot this year.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 PHOF.
-
Jalil Bethea has a final four of Alabama, KState, NCState, and a return to Miami.
-
@Jhawk69 Favoritism to the detriment of the program - was told I’m insane
Self’s presser mentioning his sons proved that
The blowup in Utah….
Us looking great in November when guys had freedom and then it’s stripped away
Sucks to watch us become Indiana or UCLA but Grandpa Bill needs to give the car keys over to the next generation - he’s legitimately unable to adjust his style of play
Oh and DP isn’t nearly this rock-solid commitment especially after today’s disaster
Better hope Flory ends up back at KU because word on the street is DP doesn’t want to play for a “1 year away from a title KU team”
-
I have basically no interest in minor league sports. Especially one that changes the entire roster yearly. What a complete mess this has all become.
-
@kuballin10 Stronger argument that Hunter is the issue.
-
Passmore is the next domino to fall it looks.
Hall had his zoom call with the staff, TBD next.
Dix took his Illinois visit. Their board is a bit optimistic he lands there it seems
-
I hate college basketball.
-
I feel about the same
-
I’m getting there too
-
There it is…Passmore
-
I’ll root for that kid on the next stop.
-
-
As sad as I am to see Passmore leaving I can see it from his side of the fence. There were several games this season when he got hooked and pulled out of the game after one mistake while others were allowed to make dozens without Bill even seeming to get on them. Like my grandfather used to say when you pray for rain you have to deal with the mud sometimes. Bill made his bed and now he has to deal with the consequences no matter how unfortunate it is for us.
-
@kjayhawks He was encouraged to leave.
-
Passmore was a top 50 recruit? Never saw even a flash from him. Maybe the next stop he will live up to his HS ranking.
-
@BShark I don’t agree with that but let just have to hope things work out. He looked like a good player in a few years if he stuck around. We ain’t gonna be able to get a bunch portal guys that want to sit on the bench
-

He averaged less than 5 minutes per game, a little tough to showcase a lot in those situations

Ask @TYOHawk about my Passmore information. It comes from the best possible place. There is also a small scenario where he would be back but I would not bet money on that.
-
@BShark said in The portal.:

Too bad about Passmore. He looked like he had potential on D, and he has the proper size and athleticism to compete. I was hoping he’d stick around a few years or so as a foundational piece.
I saw a few flashes this year. Obviously limited viewing opportunities.
These are the kind of guys Bill develops.

Yeah, I wish there was time to develop anymore…

Like a young Och or CB.

I think things are going to have to settle down with transfers and NIL in a year or two.
We have to weather the storm. And hope Self is the right guy to deal with fresh players every year. Off the top it sure doesn’t seem like it.
-
@BShark I guess we can hope to be Dook and have all new players but 1 or 2. I just don’t realistically see it working in Selfs system
