      There are no positives from this game. The team looked like they are ready to be done with the season. Hard to see anything other than a first weekend exit.

        It's become a yearly theme.

          @BeddieKU23 I know the next coach won't be as successful but I think it's probably time. Also I hope the next coach is more of a "players coach".

            This is no longer just a player issue that's for sure.

              8th double digit loss of the season.

              3 straight seasons with double digit losses, first since the mid 80's.

              Concerning trends

                let dp chuck 40 shots in the first weekend fuck it. At least I'll be more entertained then seeing the weave slop that we do every possession

                  just saw this was the fourth time in five games that we've shot under 40%....quite frankly I am ready for new ideas. When you have the potential #1 pick in the nba draft and the sheer gravity he generates on the basketball court, it should not be this hard to create open looks or score the basketball.

                    I still think you can’t move on until you’ve got a guarantee. I do not want a Mick Cronin situation.

                    And I genuinely don’t think KU has the money to move on. So there’s that.

                      Anyone else wake up just ticked off? March used to be one of if not my favorite month of the year for the last 30 years. For the second year in a row I’m not even remotely excited to watch basketball. I may very well pick Kansas to lose in the opening round, something I’d never done or hardly even thought about prior to last season. Kansas basketball has become depressing to me and that’s sad.

                        Yep, with the portal, we are now in the era of douchebag coaches. Hurley and Golden come to mind.

                          @BigBad they maybe "players" coaches though. Seems like that's who "fans" are looking for.

                            I dont think we need a douchebag to find a players coach. They just need to focus on the players needs first and channel that through style of coaching and play. Self doesnt do that.

                              We made 7 2pt. FG's. Out of 34 tries that seems impossible. Take away the meaning less three 3pt shots at the end of the game by Jamari and Kohl and we made 4 out of 20 from deep. These numbers are whatever but the first 5 minutes of the game ruined our confidence I think. Did we give up in the second half a bit?

                                @crimsonblu22 Yes it sure looked like it.

                                  Needed another shotmaker outside of DP. Too bad Dawson was a total bust

                                    I think I’ll reserve judgment on Self’s tenure until after the tourney.

                                    I can say getting beat down by 20+ points more than a few times lately isn’t helping his cause. I thought we actually matched up well vs Houston. No reason to get smoked like that.

                                    Watching our offense try to get an open look at times can be painful. That has to be on the coaching staff. I realize Houston has a top notch defense, but 47 points this late in the season? Jeez.

                                    We 100% need some bench help. How bad is Dawson if he won’t even play him over Marko and Mari?
