Why Might We Flourish In The Big Dance
-
-
We are truly flying under the radar this year!
-
We haven't played a non-conference game in months, so we play teams that don't know how to play against Self.
-
DP is the healthiest he has been this year and this is the big stage where he can show his talent.
-
Tre is back! He's warming up on his long ball again!
-
Melvin (the Dawg) doesn't want to quit playing as a Jayhawk so he'll fight like hell every game!
-
Flory is like Melvin... they both want to keep playing!
-
Bryson will be rested and pushed to step it up a notch.
-
Elmarko is finally feeling healthy again.
-
Our guys are playing with a chip! (haha... I wish... never mind!
)
-
-
@drgnslayr I am optimistic as well. Last year there was a sense of doom that this team could not meet expectations however modest they became. We are in a better place entering this one, of that there is no doubt. All upside!
-
Idk Elmarko being healthy is a good thing, I’d rather see Dawson get a few minutes if Elmarko can’t play smart ball.
-
It doesn't seem like our fanbase is very optimistic going into the tournament.
-
Need to see how they play this week first.
-
@kjayhawks2.0 On Hawk Talk Coach said he thought Dawson would win us a game going forward. Almost like he knows something.......
-
Losing 4 out of 6 makes me pessimistic. The wins were spectacular though. The potential is there.
-
I remember 2022 well. I'm not saying this team will match that, but who thought we would win it all back then? I definitely didn't see that nattie coming! When our current team plays motivated, they win.. almost regardless if they have a bad shooting night, because their key is defense. And when they play motivated they rebound, too!
We control our own destiny. We've beat #1 already. They can play with anyone, and from what I see, I think UA should be the favorite to win it all, and we know we can go toe-to-toe with them!
-
@drgnslayr Yeah I feel much better about this team than I did for 2022, they have played like a top tier team in spurts this season.
Usually I don't care too much how we do in the B12 tournament, but think it is important for this team if they can get 3 games and work out the consistency issues.
-
I felt better about this team 24 hours ago. Now I'm pretty sure this team will be over-achieving if they get to the sweet 16.
-
Yikes the walls are falling!
-
This team looks like the same as the teams have the last two seasons. They got their money but zero heart, soul, pride or anything of that nature. The checks cleared, what ever happens just happens seems to be the feeling.
-
@kjayhawks2.0 i get the reasons re: NIL, but the fact that this is an us problem and not an everyone problem makes it pretty clear Self will be on his way out, and hiring a players coach is the only path forward to success.
