I’m calling it, Kansas by 7!
-
Just imagine how much better a player Sherron could’ve been if he could’ve said no to a cheeseburger.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 He matured early, then aged rapidly.
-
@tundrahok He ate himself out of basketball because he didn’t have any self control when it came to his diet. He’s not as big as he used to be, but he’s still pretty chunky if you follow him on any social media platforms.
-
I’m anti-social, but I believe you.
-
Looked like they didn’t restart the clock for a couple of seconds.
-
Could have called a foul there, on both sides.
-
…and then they didn’t stop it after the whistle. Makeup call?
-
3rd NCAA conference championship, but 5th national championship, buddy.
-
I’m smiling!
-
What a finish.
This was an emotional game for our local alumni group, and for more than the obvious reasons.
One of our regulars had died suddenly of a heart attack a few days before the Final Four. Adam was a real gregarious guy who’d buy a shot at the end of each KU victory…he called it “the winning shot.” So when we won the championship, a bunch of us did shots in his honor.
-
The team this year deserved to play for this too! Now I’m not smiling! I do get it. Life’s not fair!
-
@nwhawkfan that was a sweet memory!
-
Now I want to see 1988
-
Well, that was a nice respite. RCJH ! Everybody stay safe out there.
-
@tundrahok it’s on YouTube if you want to watch it. I have a few times.
-

-
Dam that was one DEEP team - - MARIO - - - - SWEET

Lolol so good

Kansas-Purdue from 1994 sweet 16 when Glenn Robinson is on BTN at 3 and at 7. Not the most painful loss we’ve had so I might watch.
-
@wissox no losses! But wins, thx for updates!
-
I know, there’s few losses I like to rewatch. I might just to see the guys from that era play.
-
@wissox I’d like to see the wins against Roy.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 YouTube has them
-
I’m sure someone else has posted this somewhere already, but this is fun to watch:

Self narrates the ending of the 2018 Elite Eight game against Duke in Omaha. This game will re-air on CBS Sports Network on Sunday, March 29 at 12 p.m. and 7 p.m. central.

@bskeet that was so cool! Where did you find that?

That one still stings. For the first 15 years of my true Jayhawk fandom (starting in ‘89 a year late to the party) I could tell you every stinking team KU lost to and the final score. Most of that brain space is wasted on work info now.

Nice! Glad he’s doing them as a series.

I did watch the 2nd half of the Purdue game. Robinson had done most of his damage in the 1st half so I didn’t see a lot of what I remember. Cuonzo Martin was on that Purdue team too, so they were pretty stout. They’re a competitive program that just hasn’t been able to climb that hurdle into the FF. Of course it’s their own fault in that epic game against Virginia last years elite 8. Why 3 Purdue guys would leave defending the basket to chase a loose ball down court in the last seconds of a certain win had they just stayed home where they should have been, there’s a different champion.
That KU team was still pretty young, Jacque Vaughn, Scott Pollard were some names that would play a big role coming up.

@BShark arent we doing the game?
️ It’s duke!

Marcus looks so different
-
Duke players reflect their coach, so whiny! KU tough! News flash, I know!
-
Watching the 1985 Championship, Villanova v. Georgetown, I find it very weird when you compare it to today’s game.
No shot clock, so Nova went into the four corners and sat on the ball for the last two minutes of the first half. Also minimal (and pretty basic) TV graphics, so you had to wait to find out the score and time if you’d just tuned in (or hadn’t been paying attention before). Not to mention having Brent Musberger on the call instead of Jim Nantz.
-
And of course, the short shorts.
-
Malik made tripper look silly!

Earlier today ESPN2 aired the 1992 Sweet 16 women’s game between KU (w/Angel Goodrich) and Pat Summitt’s Tennessee Lady Vols.
Wasn’t sure why that particular game, until I realized that Summitt had been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s earlier in the season. It turned out that her final win as a head coach was against the 11th-seeded Jayhawks.
(They lost in the next round to eventual champ Baylor, led by Britney Griner.)
KU started strong and led the entire first half, but the Lady Vols pulled away for the win.
-
Correction on the date of that game…2012, not 1992. (Got distracted watching the 1995 men’s final.)
-
1985…geez
-
@nwhawkfan angel was so good, I watched the girls back then, just to watch her. She was a good pt!
-
@nwhawkfan Didn’t KU have a 20 point lead at one point in the 1st of that game?
-

Never thought I’d say this, but I miss Bonnie -ball. At least they were reasonably competitive.
-

I think it was around 15 or so midway thru the first half. Then the Vols made their comeback.
-
Was pulling for Nova in that '85 final. I’d watched Georgetown win the title the year before at the Kingdome (RIP, imploded 20 years ago last week).
I thought the Hoyas were a bunch of cheap-shot artists, though I admired Ewing’s game. The Big East refs let players get away with a lot of stuff back then.
-
And now CBS brings back bad memories…the 1997 final, Arizona (who upset overall number 1 seed KU) vs. Kentucky.
Shoulda been us in the final. What a loaded lineup, The Truth, Jacque, Pollard, LaFrentz, Haase.
