I wasn’t expecting to well up in tears for someone I hadn’t personally met, but I did. I’ve been to four funerals of friends and family this year and was able to stay composed, but this hit me harder than expected. @RockChalkinTexas apparently holds a special place in my heart. I enjoy my bucketteers; don’t any of you dare leave!

Everyone stay safe and healthy as possible this holiday season!!!

Worst case scenario- KU in line for the number one overall seed, plays no games due to a pandemic. Leaving nothing but what if’s for all.

@BeddieKU23 Yes, Kelly should’ve stayed another year, but I’m still upset that Paul Pierce left early.

I love that Bill Self is being blamed for tuning out a roster devoid of post talent and yet his team is playing the best basketball in the nation, undefeated, and ranked #2.

The warts will show, but Bill is doing a masterful job once again.

As a Chiefs fan, Mahomes is payback for watching other teams do that to our D for years.

Win at all costs and the fans cry about not looking to the future. Sit Cliff and lose tonight with an eye on the future and fans cry. It’a a good thing KU basketball coach isn’t an elected position. The man has done nothing but win games at a historic rate. KU is 14-3 with a freshman and sophomore dominated line-up in what has been the hardest schedule in the nation. I’m estatic with the win loss record, but think there is much room for improvement in play. That’s what has me excited, KU will be better in March and even better next year.

If Bill manages to win the conference title this year it will be quite the feat with 8 teams in a 10 team conference having been ranked in the top 25. That means 8 teams have been rated in the top 7% of all college basketball. KU will have to earn this championship!

5th year Ochai is more valuable than freshman Ochai will be. This team needs to figure its own problems out. There is no savior in waiting.

Dylans laid new flooring in his flooded office yesterday and feels like an old man today.

Wow look at the list of wonderful coaches we’ve been blessed to witness - Terry Allen, Turner Gill, Charlie Weis, david beaty, oh my! A veritable who’s who lost!!!

@Crimsonorblue22 said in Marcus Garrett Defensive Player of the Year:

Naismith! Highest

It’s only been around 2 years? Crazy that it’s considered the most prestigious if that’s the case. Name change?

Blake Griffin played two.

Gooden was NPOY. Nothing left to prove, but a ‘chip would’ve been nice.

Raef’s Jr year the squad was one double overtime 2pt loss away from being undefeated in the regular season.

@FarmerJayhawk I haven’t seen, has the state’s top paid employee donated any cashola?

I don’t think two bigs will be a big part of the plan, but I’ll bet Mitch plays the 4 next to Dave several minutes a game…assuming there’s basketball next season.

KU was killing it down low for a period in there - Pollard, LaFrentz, Collison. All very nice.

@FarmerJayhawk Hope so, but it’s pretty darn hard to put a cat back in the bag.

@Texas-Hawk-10 millionaires crying poverty rings hollow. It’s different for the salt of the earth who could actually miss meals, not just have to cut the caviar out.

I really don’t feel the least bit sorry for colleges. The athletic budgets are bloated beyond being responsible. Now the guy living paycheck to paycheck? Yikes, he’s in trouble. The door to door salesman? Ouch. Waitresses - not so great.

@wissox probably a bit of recency bias. It’s easy to forget how good LaFrentz was for 4 years.
