@DCHawker That long ?
-
“This is the most un-Kansas team I have seen under Bill Self.” Seth Greenberg
-
I mean seriously , where is this team’s pride ?-- Do they not realize how bad they look ?
-
@DanR some of it is Bills philosophy on Fools gold, the guards are way way over helping to paint after the ball is reversed. It’s not 1980 anymore guys can hit 3s at 45% clip all game long or better.
-
Who do we play next ?

This is the most un-Kansas team I’ve seen since James Naismith. – Dan R.
-
@DanR ya I’m mean if the 2013 team was losing to the Topeka YMCA this team is losing to a wheel chair ball club
-
They don’t deserve to wear the jersey…
It’s an embarrassment to our history and the guys who have worn it and competed with pride. This group is a bunch of quitters and should be remembered as such.
And Self isn’t off the hook either. This is what happens when you play favorites…
-
@DanR nailed it. They don’t care. Some of them, enough that it kills the chemistry.
-
@DanR said in Tonight's game:
I’m just blown away by the total ineptness on D. Like 10 wide open threes from the corner. How are you going to fix that with a halftime speech. Should have been coached from day 1.
It’s not being fixed with a speech. This team is beyond speeches. It’s at the point where certain players have to decide if they give a shit or not. Nobody on the roster has enough fire to hold others accountable for phoning it it.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 it’s to that point and has been for atleast a month. My question is why are playing the guys that obviously don’t give two fucks like Hunter and Storr. I’ve always said I’d be happy to lose by 50 with walk ons if we actually play hard. The guys that don’t care shouldn’t see the floor don’t care if they are the best player on the team or not.
-
AJ Storr is too damn lazy to even put a hand up to contest someone shooting a 3 in his face.
-
Do yall think we could lose out and miss the tournament?
-
@nuleafjhawk I’m not sure I understand that comment?
-
How often are they paid? Do they get monthly payments during bb season?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 why should they care? They don’t have to make the roster. They’re getting a paycheck. No need for floor burns
-
@wissox sorry. That was in response to your question of what will Bill say at halftime
-
Bill should be told that fool’s gold is paying top dollar on NIL for piss poor effort.
-
Unfortunately it is how people act in the worst/most stressful times that define their character. ie there are a lot of nice folks in the state pen that just get a little stabby from time to time. I try to remember that when I start to get exceeding cheesed about KU sports. I’d hate to be defined as a poor sport because I can’t act as gracious in defeat as victory. (I’m not though I try)
Doesn’t mean I like the play through. That I find off putting. That someone who was recruited to come represent the university I slaved to pinch pennies to attend putting forth this effort is bothersome to say the least.
-
The talking heads keep saying we are inconsistent. I have to disagree. This seems pretty consistent.
-
I think I’m going to turn to alcohol.
-
Tell ya what , there is a individual here that thinks all I like to do id talk smack , shade all negative crap about this KU team. Tell ya what I would love to be able to have positive things to say about the team, so Please-- can somebody , anybody give me something positive about this group so I can say OH YA would love to have positive things to say.- - So somebody ? - - Anybody got anything positive about this team right now that I can relay along
-
20 minutes for some PRIDE fellas.
-
@SlimShaddy54 We kept BYU under 50 points in the half.
-
Boom good start. Ball off stone hands BYU guy
-
@patoh3 OH Cool well thats good— great job guys
-
If I’m Bill Self at halftime, I walk in laughing ass off. Telling them something to the tune of I’ve got 16 conference titles and 2 national titles, I’m probably gonna be remembered pretty positively if I retire tomorrow. Y’all are gonna hold the title of Bill Selfs worst team and arguably the worst team Kansas has put out in over 40 years.
-
Pretty sure Hunt has never taken a charge in his life.
-
one good possession and two bad possessions is not the path to recovery.
-
Hunter’s scared of contact. Easy charge to take and he ole’d out of the way.
-
@patoh3 The issue isn’t NIL - plenty of teams paying players who are playing.
It isn’t “playing hard” it’s actually we don’t have legit talent
We are the team paying big contracts out to bad players who we valued incorrectly (Hunter, d2, kj, storr ect)
Bill’s eye for talent sucks and he loves him some good players that would have excelled when Self was in college
-
@bskeet we ain’t coming back in this one not a remote chance dont set yourself up for failure my friend
-
Lol Self wanted to call a time out and the guys ignored him Hanni said

You know the outcome before the tip - use that insider knowledge at the sports book!!!
-
The money’s making these guys soft. Maybe that’s it.
-
I can’t believe the plan was to shoot threes back into this.
-
@kjayhawks I’d be ok only losing this one by 20. In other words, playing even the rest of the way. That’s an embarrassing bar to set. And yet, it ain’t happening either.
-
It’s not the money. They’re just not that good. Imagine if we built a team around Naadir Tharpe and Darnell Jackson…that’s essentially what Coach has done the last two years.
-
@dylans But I can’t say that’s positive about the team
-
I don’t want to hear how great of a winner Juan and kj are on senior night as we have back to back years finishing middle of the pack in the big 12
-
I’m going to bed, I’ve had enough pain and suffering for one evening. Good night all

Don’t tell me you expected something different tonight lol

Don’t insult Darnell Jackson like that. He was actually drafted and spent 3 years in the NBA. I’d take him in a heart beat right now.
-
Time to play flory passmore rest of the game. Growth for the freshman. Hunter, kj, storr, mayo harris have been embarrassing don’t play them rest of the game.
-
I actually think there is adequate talent on the floor. This team was very competitive early in the season.
What has happened, starting around the Mizzou game has been a decline, then a plateau, then a decline, then a plateau. Meanwhile everyone else is getting better.
-
@kuballin10 umm many more then Self using his eye for talent- -let’s make sure we get ALL the people involved in eyes for talent- -I know how much you love Bill but lets spread the joy
-
@dylans I quit drinking a long time ago, but watching these guys feels just like a hangover. A bad hangover.
-
Don’t get on the floor or anything, Storr
-
So the offensive sets need blown up for future games. If your going to play Hunter no more having him setting screens and shooting midrange crap. Post him or play flory and go 4 guards in the future.
