      @Kcmatt7 said in Yormark Out: Honestly he did some good and some bad. College sports is just such a shit show right now I don’t even know how to evaluate him. Without him, the Big 12 wouldn't exist as a P4 conference. He jumped the Pac 12 in getting a new media rights deal which is why the Big 12 still exists today as the 3rd conference. He has the league in position add from the ACC in the near future as their next deal is approaching. He is/was a risk taker and obviously some of his ideas have flopped like the LED court and the Monster Energy deal. He was never passive when it came to acting on his ideas and that's something that was an overall positive for the league and I hope whoever follows him has a similar mindset and approach.

      I've only watched the first half of Duke so far... I wish Self would train our guys to not leave their man open on the perimeter and stop sinking in trying to defend the drive so much. We've been leaving guys wide open and most of these guys can probably hit wide open treys blindfolded. Otherwise... I give a mixed report card on our D so far, with some players GOOD and other players BAD. We will never shut other teams down much if our bad guys keep leaking at this level because everyone will exploit them. Also rate our rebounding as UNDERPERFORMING. We have the people that should never lose the team rebounding battle.

      @Texas-Hawk-10 said in We Shall Overcome: Self inflicted mistakes. Whatever NIL budget KU has for football in 2027, focus it on the OLine. Anyone that knows football knows the game is decided in the trenches. Our back field had to break tackles all day to get to the LOS. Several runs KSU had they weren’t even touched til 5 or 6 yards beyond the LOS. I knew the line was suspect when we couldn’t run up the middle against Long Island.

      @crimsonblu22 Not sure he is the problem, we do not have good hitters, pitching is solid but hitting and bullpen are bad.

      I must say I 2nd @bskeet's rec for getting your PSA test. A couple of you i know don't have prostates but it's the 2nd leading cause of cancer deaths for men which may surprise you but so many men get it, by percent it's not horribly deadly. I had it, kept an eye on it for about 3 years, but then my PSA started going up and a biopsy showed it advanced to a gleason 7 which is like stage 3 prostate cancer and they yanked it out one day. My dad who just passed had a very slow growing prostate cancer for about 25 years and didn't die from it but from other things. Easy blood test.

      @kjayhawks2.0 I saw that (originally) in the movie theater with all colors of folk in attendance. And everyone was laughing equally hard. People are too dang sensitive these days.

      @approxinfinity The Zen Approach 2025 back-to-back men’s champion Tom Kopke (Munich) kept it simple: “I shut off my brain and went for it.” That's the exact strategy KU should have used in basketball.. My money is on Kopke to win his 3rd straight this Mayt! GO KOPKE! ROLL THE CHEESE, BRO! CHEESE

      @FarmerJayhawk said in Kansas vs St Johns: Man it hurts to see Marko has broken up as he was after the game. Say what you want about his game, but he really, really cares and loves being a Jayhawk. For sure I get on these guys fairly often but there is a difference between pointing out a bad play and hating a player for mistakes on the court. I loved KJ and Juan as people just don’t believe they should’ve ever been starting for the KU basketball team.

      CAL Baptist goes 10-19 at the line. Make 8 more and we're going to OT.

      @kjayhawks2.0 said in KU @ Arizona St 8pm CT: we had 21 offensive rebounds and 4 second chance points. Wow! Yep. This defined the game and it's stunning. If you look at this team's record with these remarkably anomalistic, highly improbable and statistically aberrational numbers, you might be tempted to throw a couple of these losses out. They are pretty good if you take away the weirdness. Or is it weirdness? What is the norm? It's just hard to know whether this team can still gel and harden and normalize into its full potential at this point.

      I think you could circle a lot things in this one that were an issue. My main concern as it has been most the season is the rebounding. The refs were garbage and it’s starting to become major news across the country right now because what is a foul or a traveling one game is not in another. Sometimes which end it is on is completely different, they could’ve very easily called at least another 10 fouls on Arizona with how tight the whistle was for them. You guys and gals know I’ve always said professional sports in this country are rigged. I’m starting to wonder if college isn’t the same. It literally looked like KU cut it to 2 and the refs got a page or text reminding them of the spread. I think they should press have conferences after the game for officials. I mean how many of us can repeatedly do our job wrong or not all without having repercussions? The guy cleaning the ice machine at McDonald’s gets written up for forgetting to do it but officials at the second highest level of sports in this country making 6 figures have to answer to nobody.

      @Jayhawk_69 a win Monday would be massive imo, and would put us right back on track, especially if our core players all play fairly well to well.
