Joe Dooley won the ASUN regular season conference title for the second straight year in 2018. They start the conference tourney Monday night.

Always happy to see former KU coaches do well!

Saw this on Twitter from Creighton Coover:

#KUbball has, by far, the longest current streak of receiving a #4 seed or higher in the #NCAATournament. This short list exemplifies the incredible consistency the #Jayhawks have shown for the entire century thus far! Kansas - 21 Gonzaga - 5 Purdue - 5 Baylor - 2

I thought McCullar looked really good today. He had a quiet Double/Double with 5 steals. Just kinda hiding in the background but he’s been an excellent addition.

Dunno where else to put this. I’ll just leave it here…

Missouri will be on its 7th basketball coach since Bill Self arrived at Kansas. Self is the 8th coach in KU history.

Storr has withdrawn from the NBA draft and is coming to KU.

Is it possible the big guys are playing a bit soft to avoid fouls, hence fewer rebounds? Given that the big guys spent a lot of time on the bench in the first half, it had to impact rebounding.

If Preston can return, those numbers should change (I would hope)…

Good Lord Almighty! It’s suddenly “Rent-A-Team”! ️

What am I missing?

Langford was 4/12 field goals in 31 minutes during an exhibition victory over a Southern Indiana. 4 rebounds and 1 assist. 5 turnovers. This Buckets group would have crucified him…

@Texas-Hawk-10 - positive or negative factor?

@wissox - move it to the Politics board.

@Crimsonorblue22 - 14!

Batting slump. Big time. 8/10 in last night’s lineup hitting .208 or worse. Only Witt & Garcia hitting at all.

@BShark - if possible, what’s the deal there with Case? I thought he was a pretty good recruiter but have no ideas about his coaching abilities. If you like, PM please.

Don’t believe it’s been KANSAS since the injury to Jalen Wilson…

@FarmerJayhawk - To clarify, you believe Flory is going with Pearl?

@Texas-Hawk-10 - My thought is that Self would be very good at fund raising and management. He could leave the higher stress jobs of recruiting and coaching to others (but still shake hands” with recruits).

Would Self entertain the GM position? Also heard somewhere Frank Mason is interested in becoming a member of the recruiting staff? FWIW.

Furphy was 0/6, no free throws, zero points. 4 rebounds, 2 assists in 23 minutes. -16 in +/-. NBA money too strong for him to stay. Maybe he’ll have an impact next year?
