@DanR said in Big-12 Tourney:
Sorry, I passed along unverified info from Lawrence Journal World sportswriter, Gary Bedore, (who drew conclusions about Tristan and David…)
Not verified that they ever tested positive. Still just following “protocol” whatever that means.
Hey that’s ok. - However Coach said they would not be making the trip to Indy with the tam on Monday. - I’m guessing if everything goes well they will fly up later in the week
-
I don’t understand how the NCAA had a year to prepare for this and didn’t plan to have a 14 day period of team bubble isolation after selected teams made the field. Some reason college basketball can’t figure this out. Every other sport has been smooth sailing. it’s not just ku but Virginia maybe too, and easily could happen to others. They had no plan in place to figure this out if this happened, no flex schedule etc. fingers crossed we can go and our players remain safe
-
@jayhawks2010 this
exactly. So dumb.
-
You really couldn’t expect Mark the idiot to prepare a proper plan now do ya? You made way too much common sense for the NCAA to ever comprehend
-
This has been talked about at least locally a lot today - - I know it’s been brought up National too. That is now do we think that in the future , do we think we will see the elimination of Conference post Season tourneys? - -This COVID seems like it would all fuel to that fire - you really have nothing to gain from these things , other then just another trophy. - -A true Champion of a Conference is determined over the Course of the Season - - NOT a 3 /4 day weekend tourney.
The Consencus seems like we are going to see many Conferences do away with post season tourneys or teams will opt out of them. - I would have to agree
-
And Baylor goes down to Okie State 83-74!

@BeddieKU23 we have had the worst luck.
Embiid, Perry, and Doke x2.
Archie Marshall x2, Haase, Hinrich…

Wow, no other way to say it, this really blows.

@jayballer67 Our chances of participating in the NCAA tournament don’t look too good.

No ever sports analysts have said ku chances don’t look good for the big 12 tournament
-
So the way I’m grasping this at this point and what we know or pretty much seems the case is - - That Jalen is the one with the COVID, which IF that is truly the case then means IF we do indeed make the tourney , we would be without Jalen this opening weekend right ?
Then Coach Self is saying that David McCormack and Tristan Enaruna will not go to Indy with the team on Monday , which in turn if they are just in protocol/meaning not necessarily they tested positive but more likely contact tracing -so if that’s the case and they would test negative would then fly up to Indy later in the week right ? to join the rest of the team right ?

Yes that would be right

Matt Tait just tweeted that there is optimism that KU will participate in the tourney. Not a sure thing, but looks better than 50% chance.
There are a lot of questions swirling like “What will the team look like? Who will be ineligible?”
But I just asked Tait if the NCAA will adjust the seeding based on who is eligible and he said “They’ll seed on KU’s entire body of work & put them where they belong. Win over OU helped. Not playing last night didn’t hurt.”

But I just asked Tait if the NCAA will adjust the seeding based on who is eligible and he said the NCAA would seed based on body of work and he noted that the OU game helped and the lack of the Texas game did not hurt.
According to ESPN who talked with the Commissioner of this I guess and it says: - -After the tourney bracket has been announced - - teams will not be re-seeded so if were eligible and get picked whatever seed we get put at - - that’s where we will stay no matter who from the team goes to Indy
-
My bracket may have Covid winning it all this year, or at least in my final four.
-
Saw the video of big dave from Lawrence wishing the team good luck in Kc. He definitely had a head cold.

Saw that too. He definitely has something
-
Do we know the 3 who aren’t going to Indianapolis? Is it Dave, Tristan, and Jalen?
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich Not yet, but I suspect we’ll know the details in the next 24 hours - before the bracket is announced.

As of now it’ll be those three as long as nobody else pops a positive test between now and then.
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich if u call a player saying jalen being official word?
-
My personal opinion is big dave, based on the video, and maybe enaruna were positive.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Where did you see the video of Dave?
-
Not sure, it’s been a few days.
-
Rooting for the Longhorns tonight.

Would consider but can’t cause of shaka
-
Mercy guys tell you what - -like them or not I’m still saying Lord have mercy Texas has Talented big men - -Lord have mercy. Big/Quick/Athletic - -Jericho Sims - - really came on , Kia Jones - - Greg Brown - -challenge all the time - NOTHING easy inside , if at all - lordy actually Glad were done with them this Season - -just bad matchup
-
Osu for me
-
@Crimsonorblue22 said in Big-12 Tourney:
Osu for me
Oh don’t get me wrong Okie State is a really dangerous team right now for sure. Just saying Texas Big men are trouble for a lot of teams - -really talented
-
Im just for osu, don’t like Shaka! Like Boynton. Not betting
-
I wanna hear Fran talk about Cade!
maybe just hear him shout out Jericho Jones err sims he means! 
-
I really want info on KU!
-

ya I can’t stand Shaka
-
i mean, aside from vcu beating some 
- talking morrii, i dont see much reason to root against Shaka.I like his players.

maybe just hear him shout out Jericho Jones err sims he means! lmao
-
I will be rooting for both these teams in the tournament. Despite Cade being slightly no-joy-LeBronish, Ok St has quite a bit of talent and would love to see Big 12 shock the world this year.
K St is the only B12 team I like seeing fail.

ya, me too I pull for all the Big 12 after the Season is over. - -I pull for them in the Non Con. - -Hopefully the Big 12 can show something this tourney
-
The comment of the year maybe the decade from Fran : - - Jericho Simms will be playing Ball after this year. - - - roflmfao - - ya think Frannie I would of never guessed
-
I’d like them to throw och’s body up there, compare that. I do like sims, thought he ought to be playing more when he was younger

ya Sims has really come in to his own. - - - Sounds like the crowd is pretty much pro OSU
-
Texas getting cocky! Game not quite over. Creighton getting beat!
-
The hatches have been battened down as far as info goes, wisely… I’m now betting ($) that we play in the tournament.

Ya I would of thought we would of heard SOMETHING anything by now. A team only has till 11:00 tonight to inform the NCAA whether they think they can play or not

Ku is good to go to play Wise
-
Texas has everything it needs to win a National Championship. We’ll see how the seeding plays out, but they are a very real contender. Their length and athleticism is well beyond most teams in the field.
-
In listing the stars who were unavailable or hampered for NCAA play, how did we manage to omit one of the most significant – Simien in 2003?
