Could you imagine if you died tonight? Totally fulfilled after tonight’s effort. Would drift off with a satisfied smile on my face.
-
WTF have they ever won before, Lol
-
@Zabudda Once.
-
I think we’re just not very good 3 nights out of 5. And have relied upon other teams injury’s, scheduling favorabilitys, home court advantage, etc. Sweet 16 is the ceiling if everything goes right. I fuckin absolutely hate it when they yammer all season about how ungodly the league is. Its a very low percentage of times that actually works out. You heard it here first folks… Big12 will have maybe 2 teams left after the first weekend
-
Kevin is the ultimate glue guy. We completely fell apart without him.
-
@benshawks08 Need all 5 starters healthy. This team is super thin. - says captain obvious
-
@approxinfinity I’m not a KU fan, I’ve been outed. I know how to jinx the team bahaahaaahaahahaahahaah!!!
-
@wissox well at least you finally came clean.
-
I don’t even have a meltdown in me tonight. Do agree the team looked spent tonight.
-
Screw it. Write em off and be pleasantly surprised, when Bill and Kev get back.
-
@BShark they didn’t look spent. They looked uninvolved

Yep. They are done. Might lose to the 16 seed. Make sure they all hear that.
-
I hit Y and enter on the predictive text. About as coherent and as much effort as the play tonight.
You should try this out on the website of your own site for free if it works well with the new app or not if it works out
I’m a fan but I’m sure you’ll like 
I’m sure it I think 
it will help with my health but it’s also worth a visit and you will have the same access and knowledge of how I use the website
-
Ready for the refocus next week. Selection Sunday will add clarity. Beak ‘em Hawks!
-
@dylans wow, spammy! Lol. Sounds like an ad bot.
-
Hopefully nothing better than the last #1 seed. Need a chip or idk. Something to play for
-
@cragarhawk nah if our #10 team can beat Bama by 30 that said it all
Past 2 ncaa champs from big 12 and had 2020 happened maybe 3. Tech wasn’t far a year or so before that……
Big 10 overrated Sec is decent Big east no clue Big 12 legit
Good thing no 3 games in 3 days crap for the real tourney. Hopefully coach gets back and resets them but getting blown out by UT without their best player after getting dominated by them 7 days ago is a bad look.
-
There is plenty of rest in the NCAA tournament. Really just need the guys playing free of mind. Gradey especially seems lost in his head. Hope they can buckle down on defense and loosen up on offense and go have fun!
-
Well as Coach in Letterkenney says “that was f…king embarassing.”
-
@dylans he’s hurt they said. Anyone got the goods?
-
@kuballin10 that was the exception not the rule… probably 1 in 20. I wouldn’t put much stock in that game or result
-
I didn’t get to watch tonight. Was this basically KU running out of gas tonight without McCullar playing or was there something else concerning about tonight that we didn’t already know about this team?
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 my eye balls wished I hadn’t watched lol

Hope they see this. Chip time.
-
This was KU waving the white flag in the first half.
In my 50+ years of following Jayhawk basketball, I can’t recall a worse defensive effort.
I can’t ever recall players surrendering like they did today. They should all be ashamed. Losses will happen.
This isn’t about losing. This is about quitting.

Tired and didn’t play much defense which goes hand and hand plus no McCullar. I wasn’t overly surprised.
-
@BShark and no coach, plus you know!

I’m not sure he is wrong. Has any recent national champion lost 5 games by 14 pts or more??? We are a fragile team, living on the edge. Almost completely dependent on the 5 starters. If locked in defensively and generating fast break opportunities, with at least 4 starters scoring, we beat anybody. But if one or two, esp. Juan, are having a bad game, we aren’t particularly good. Thin margin between getting knocked out early and winning 3-4 games (don’t see a 6 game winning streak against good competition…).
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 Juan was awful turned it over, loose with the ball and their athletes out man’d him
Jw was a stud
Gradey was mainly non existent and battling injury
Concerning part Gurley and Hanni said there were 6 uncontested layups first half and there were at least 4 second half so of the 20 point blowout - 20 of them were we defended well for 15-20 seconds than gave up back cuts or guys getting blown right by off the bounce
-
Besides the lack of Self and Kevin what this game and a few others this year have shown me is Self needs to overhaul the roster a bit this offseason. I believe he will fwiw. Pissed Bill will be back.
-
@DCHawker I doubt anyone ever has. That’s a rough number. It makes ya not wanna really believe in the other metrics and numbers. I think the net skews things the RPI didn’t.
-
Bottom line? You can maybe play like that for about 5 min in the first round. After that you go home. I hate the gassed/tired narrative with a passion. I was 20… I wasn’t tired
-
@approxinfinity let’s start with team 1. And ya may say “whoever that is”. But team 1 planning is these Jayhawks. And who knows how to handle them. Hopefully Bill
-
@BShark I a 100% an agree with him, I felt the same way last aswell. I got a bad feeling with the favorable road we got last season we are in for a very tough one this season.
-
-
We may be all needing to temper expectations and say that winning the league outright was actually impressive for this crew. I think they are so fun to watch when they are energized. Always thought that, all season. But absolutely horrid when they are not. Idk how ya teach them that. The losses obviously haven’t. Gotta hope CS has the secret. But idk. He’s just a man
-
This game left a bad taste in my mouth.
-
@kuballin10 Juan made the all tourney team with jwill. You must’ve missed the first 2 games since you just showed up tonight?
-
JWil should be MVP. Dammit
-
-
I’m sure I’m not the only one who had the thought about halfway through the second half “I hope Bill Self isn’t watching this because if he didn’t have a heart attack before, he might have one now.”
-
@Crimsonorblue22 he dominated the first two games was aggressive and looked to score. That is the Juan we need to win a title and same for kj who catches at the free throw line and needs to look to score not pass.
Tonight Juan was bad. He won’t be great all 6 games but he can’t he this bad either. Elite long athlete teams we will struggle against.
Need some good matchups like last year
-
@kuballin10 yep I know that! Just wanted to let you know how good he was since you never mention that! He can’t dish to guys that can’t catch or get open either.
-
That maybe the worst played game by a PG in decades here the truth be told. He got a few garbage time layups where Texas tried not to foul. 4 assists, 4 turnovers, 1 rebound and 0 steals. Hopefully that gets it outta his system. He has played great the last month.

I hate that narrative too. Both teams had to play 3 games in 3 days.
Nevertheless, shots were short all day. Jumps were not as high. Guys got beat. Balls were fumbled and went through hands. They had a hard time just getting open for passes.
If not physically, then mentally, they were not sharp today. Not sure why— maybe it was the unusual lineups. Maybe coaching. Maybe it was Texas.
The latter is the hardest to stomach. But 3 weeks from today, if they are talking about their next game on Monday, then today’s result will be a bit easier to understand.
