Is Case is the one doing the portal scouting I hope and pray he leaves. I’ll give him some credit with Tre and Melvin. The problem is we don’t need a shooter, you need a minimum of two IMO. Tre was much improved in that department but really struggled going 2-15 in the post season.

@wissox83 What I personally find tiresome (this is not necessarily directed just at you) is the fact that this is supposed to be a forum for people to talk about sports (mostly) and talking about sports involves passion and opinions along with facts. I say what I feel, what I observe. I take off the Crimson and Blue glasses and I don't drink the Crimson and Blue kool-aid. Kansas is a program on the decline. That's not my opinion, that's a fact. Kansas men's basketball had not lost 11 games in a season since 1989! The past three years we've lost 11, 13 and 11. We have been bounced from the NCAA Tournament after the first or second games (against generally far inferior opponents) multiple timnes. That's right off the kuathletics.com website. Facts. Not opinions. So people can say I'm naysayer. Say that I'm negative. Say whatever they want to say. Have me banned. Chances are I'm just telling the truth and nobody wants to hear it.

@FarmerJayhawk haha nice! Well done! Gonna have to pay more attention to Dusty May.

@approxinfinity Thanks, a day late! Spring is coming slowly here but my parents are still snow on ground, lake still iced up, looks like winter etc etc. But that's Wisconsin for you.

@stoptheflop On the other hand what else could Ayers say? If he says "yes he headbutted me but in the moment I decided to overlook it". Imagine the firestorm that would have caused. So he was saving face by saying I don't know what you're talking about.

Bobby Hurley quotes: "My patience expired before the conversation started." I don't lose my temper, I just misplace it frequently. I'm calm until refs make calls I don't like. Quotes about Hurley: If looks could kill you'd receive a life sentence. You're not useless, you can always be a bad example.

@Texas-Hawk-10 I know we're picking hairs here, but a shot where the other team has to throw it from almost full court to win is a buzzer beater. And we lose if he misses. It was epic but somehow a quarterfinal shot like Laettners gets venerated as some sort of shot from the gods and Marios gets people saying well because it wasn't this or that it's not "as high up...." Bull biscuits. Horsehockey. Mule Muffins! Marios and Keith Smarts and Lorenzo Charles are the only true epic buzzer beaters in NCAA tournament history.

@kjayhawks2.0 Hey, I didn't name the category! But generally they are, but I wish they'd play deeper into the tourney every once in a while.

Ignorant/Stupid question: Is it not allowed to establish a buyout on a player's contract so if another program wants a player, they not only have to pay the athlete, but also have to pay a buyout to the program? For example, the buyout could be $500k if they leave after 1 year and $1m if after 2 years. Some sort of structure so the program gets some compensation for the investment it puts into the athlete that is simply transported to the other program... Right now, only the player gets compensated.

@bskeet the only road we got that I want like holy smokes was in 2022. I’d rather been a 9 seed like Iowa than us as a 4 with the games we got.

The most important thing is winning in March, well and in April. But a season can be enjoyable even without the end of season success. I love watching KU play basketball. I love being other teams super bowl. Frankly we are that to just about every team that plays us. The only team that can talk any smack about us right now in the league is Baylor, and maybe Houston a recent runner up. Arizona hasn't been to an elite 8 since 2015, final 4 since 2001. Yes they could break that embarrassing streak of no FF's this year. We're crying because we haven't been there since 2022? Iowa St? Laughable to hear their pitiful fans talk smack on us. They've not earned the right because, well they've been waiting since 1944 when my 89 year old mom was 8 years old to play in a final four! BYWho? They're a midmajor that's been to 3 elite 8's. Texas Tech at least has a recent proud achievement with their national runner up in 2019. So I'm still darn tooting pleased to be cheering on the crimson and blue. We've still got lots of great stuff going on. Jump back on board Mr Nuleaf!

@approxinfinity The Zen Approach 2025 back-to-back men’s champion Tom Kopke (Munich) kept it simple: “I shut off my brain and went for it.” That's the exact strategy KU should have used in basketball.. My money is on Kopke to win his 3rd straight this Mayt! GO KOPKE! ROLL THE CHEESE, BRO! CHEESE

@FarmerJayhawk said in Kansas vs St Johns: Man it hurts to see Marko has broken up as he was after the game. Say what you want about his game, but he really, really cares and loves being a Jayhawk. For sure I get on these guys fairly often but there is a difference between pointing out a bad play and hating a player for mistakes on the court. I loved KJ and Juan as people just don’t believe they should’ve ever been starting for the KU basketball team.

@stoptheflop One of the Major flaws which will probably cost us tomorrow but it has reared it's ugly head all year long is- ---the dam long ass scoring droughts with sloppy forced pass & shots-- just pisses the f - - -off. you can take it to the bank we will go through one of these which will cost us dearly against St John's Think we need to make more of an effort to get Flory involved early in the game. I need to see Flory go right at Zuby be aggressive and make Zuby defend early. I think we are starting to fall into the old thing again of just having the ball in Darryn's and everybody else just standing around waiting for Darryn make a play. while the rest of the team stands around and slosh's through sludge

CAL Baptist goes 10-19 at the line. Make 8 more and we're going to OT.

@patoh3 Oh if I'd known you were I'd have included you! @texas-hawk-10 Because The people doesn't beat the Chiefs coach, Wisconsins famous architect and the greatest coach ever!

I kept thinking all year Dawson would start hitting but he was not even online with his shots.
