Of the last 25 years, the 2002 KU team was the only KU team in honestly thought might never lose. That team was incredible, but not winning the title kind of overshadows that. The 2007 team gets lost in the shuffle as well because of 2008, but that team was basically as good as the 2008, swapping a bit of consistency for more explosiveness. We will never know what the 2020 team could have been. If they win the national title, they probably go down as one of the most dominant KU teams ever. That group really was robbed of potentially a place in history as an all time type of team. A title puts them up there with the 97 and 2002 KU teams in terms of dominance, but with a title to back it up. Maybe the best KU team of the last 50 years? We will never know what a dominant March run does for their legacy.

@mayjay yes, typical noncommittal cya lawyer speak. Our DA is very good at it…As he lets everyone off. I guess that’s better than the opposite.

@Bosthawk said in Better from behind?: Well, my wife does agree about better from behind… that way we can both watch the game … (I’ll go away now) When you come from behind it makes winning so much better.

@Crimsonorblue22 if he wasn’t playing how Bill wanted there would be issues. Bill seems happy with him. I’ve said the same about wanting Garrett handling the ball in crunch time though. Exception would be if Dot has been putting the guy guarding him in the torture chamber all game.

@chriz At OSU, the whole place is the KU section. Watching on TV, it looks like no matter who they’re playing or what’s at stake there will be a maximum of about 3,000 Okies there for any given game. Must be a lot of good country western bars in Stillwater…

@chriz I have heard that Zeus Jackson is seriously considering KU.

I can think of three very obvious things Marcus can do to improve his shooting stats this year without changing his form… First… he needs confidence! That plays a huge role in bringing up numbers. It only takes the slightest hesitation to kill a shot. Marcus has to realize that just deciding he feels confident will begin improving his shot. If he needs any help with this he should chat with KJ. Man… he’s never afraid to take a shot from anywhere! Second… he should rethink his focus. Is his vision okay? Maybe worth an eye test. He needs to think more about where he is focusing… back of the rim? An overall vision of the rim? Does he envision a pathway for the ball? Third… he has to learn to relax on his shot. His arms should feel like spaghetti. Soft stroke. Follow through…

I was one point off on KU and 5 on Nova. I will take it.

They get fired, they still collect millions for not working. Then they get another job. I would rather face that than greedy families of kids screwing up everything I spend all year busting my ass to accomplish.

@RockChalkinTexas I’m thinking we need to extend our Texas streak throughout this season if we want to stand a chance at #14. Wow… Phog… what is that KC sweater he is wearing? Do you know, or anyone know? It looks like baseball. I’m already getting excited for MLB! I love spring ball!

Any off-the-ball foul should be called exactly what it is, intentional, resulting in two shots and the ball.

@chriz OU with Heild got smoked in the final four by the same ‘nova team that knocked off KU in the elite 8. The better team was undoubtedly KU, but OU took advantage of the path they were given.

Well here’s to a good game tonight. I hope to be celebrating a good hard fought win.
