At least he had the decency to put “we good” in the post
-
@approxinfinity I know. I was watching a little of that game, and goodness, we sure had stockpiled some serious depth. They were good enough to beat defending NC Florida who’d also win it that year, but I look at their tourney games and they underachieved. Beat 8 seed Kentucky by 12, then, 14 seed SIU which they beat only by 3, and then got controlled by UCLA, no slouches, but young, some guy named Westbrook and Darren Collison who torched us if I recall correctly, although I’d rather not.
-
@wissox I want to watch that Ucla game again. For a game I never rewatched I think about it an awful lot. I remember thinking how terribly unfair it was that we had to play them in California when we were the one seed. I think they also had Mbah Moute and possibly other pros. That UCLA team was loaded.

Did they have Westbrook and Love on that team or were those two on the 2008 team?
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 no Love (I just checked) the other pro was Aaron Afflalo, so 4 very solid NBA starters including an MVP
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 I looked at their roster and no Love, but they had Westbrook. @approxinfinity I’m not sure I want to watch it. I recall them making a bunch of threes and us turning it over frequently.
-
yep watching the KU/Dayton Maui - - already MISSING THESE GUYS
-
@jayballer73 That was a good game. We played Toppin about as well as anyone can play him.

UCLA only made 8 3’s in the game and KU did have 21 turnovers, but UCLA had 25 according to the box score. I believe KU’s biggest issue was an inability to make shots at the basket missing a bunch of layups and bunnies that game.
Also looks like Westbrook was a non factor that game as he only played 5 minutes.
-
I was at that game. Heart breaker. Just not our best game at a time that we needed close to our best game.
-
I don’t know if I can stomach it, but the 2013 KU-Mich sweet 16 game is on BIG Sunday at 12:00 Noon, central time.
-

-
tied up 13-13. Rock chalk… just went up two with that drive by Rush.
-
PS Bill is live tweeting the game
-
There’s Roy with a sticker! I just learned this game is on CBS. First good news I’ve had in a week.
-
I forgot how baggy those shorts were.

Just tuned in. A tonic for our times.
-
Rush!
️
-
I also forgot how skinny Arthur is, for a big.
-
Can see why Self loves 2 bigs here. They dble down on the post so good and guards cover center field! That’s what we lack now.
-
@tundrahok and Cole!
-
I’m enjoying twitter… pollard, rush, lightfoot all chiming in along with Self
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Yes, long arms, rangy. Cole looked good while he was in. UNC was his break-out game, of course. I didn’t remember much about him in this game.
-
Up 5 at half, looking good.
-
My son that lives in wichita and me went to see self made play there this past summer. The game that killed Perry. DA and LL were like 1 - 50. Awful. Perry couldn’t have helped that much. Jeremy case even played
it was like the worse game ever. Worse than the tcu ymca game, and of course in front of WSU fans. Gotta say, a lot of Perry fans there!
-
Half time only lasted one commercial!
-
These guys didn’t lack confidence!
-
was 2008 peak long shorts?
-
@DanR Looks like it. 1988 was the opposite.
-
I’d enjoy this game a lot more if my local station wasn’t running a nonstop news crawl at the bottom of the screen. Would’ve liked a little break from all that’s going on in the real world.
-
What a deep team. Quality backing up quality. Haven’t had that depth in a while.
-
@DanR gonna guess no. Idk
-
Sherron’s shorts were ankle length his senior year, so maybe 2009 was peak long shorts.
-
I don’t miss Billy Packer
-
@DanR you know any of the corona victims in Lawrence? I assume you are safely back and hopefully able to work from home?
-
Kind of a snide remark there by Jim Nantz: “They both found their wives in, of all places, Lawrence, Kansas.”
-
@nwhawkfan I didn’t take it as derogatory, more just a low probability, on a world-wide scale.
Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine.
Kind of like that.
-
But maybe he meant it the other way.

They don’t publish names of the patients… one KU student I think who went to FL for spring break. Everyone we know is OK.
I’ve worked from home for the past 20 years, so I’m used to the routine! (not exactly super busy though, unfortunately)
-
down 6 with 5:10… not looking good.
-
Self live tweeting during the game is the greatest thing ever. Needed this
-
Bunch of people just called the game over back in 2008
-
Truth be told, it was about this time that I thought this wasn’t gonna be our year…again.
-
@DanR yeah, just thought u might know. My son has been home but also has kids. His wife is a cpa so she has been at office,🥴
-
Not the shot, wait on it!
