I'm faithful to a fault. I'm there 'til the end.

@JAYHAWKFAN214 Is he worth the drama?

In retrospect, we might have been better off with Jason as our starting QB. (A debatable topic)

@stoptheflop One of those interceptions was not his fault.

@mayjay Tyus Edney vs Misery in the tournament proved you can dribble the length of the court and make a layup with 4.8 seconds left!

BTW Know why the golf courses in Columbia are only 14 holes??
Because they've never played the final four!!

@kjayhawks2.0 as Approxinfinity said, In today's college game(s), it's all about the efficient allocation of resources!

@AsadZ Agree. So many other freshmen made so much more significant impact on their teams.

Yesterday showed the lack of team chemistry development. (Admittedly, DP's health inconsistency had a lot to do with it.) Even after a full season, however, when we needed to score, Melvin and Tre DEFERRED to DP, and DP did nothing to make them more effective participants in the offense. Could be lack of coaching OR, maybe, we were just really unlucky that we had a highly touted freshman that suffered full body cramps.

@benshawks08 said in Money next year:

"His production (DP) was nothing compared to about 5-10 of the other top freshmen. And they didn't command the $3 million that DP did. That's a big concern.

Change is difficult, but sometimes necessary. KU Basketball hasn't advanced past the first weekend since 2018, excepting the National Championship. And, that, of course, must not be overlooked. In fact, Bill Self's tenure at Kansas should, of course, be celebrated. He's the winningest coach in KU history. At the same time, he should be admired for trying to adapt to the changing landscape when other tenured coaches retired.

However, Approxinfinity is right! Bill's production since our national championship has seriously waned. His pay far exceeds his production. And, of course, the college game has changed. It's apparent that Bill has been unable to adapt successfully to NIL and the transfer portal.

Based on his record since the implementation of NIL, Bill is overpaid at $10 million per year. (Player evaluation, player development, etc are specific issues for another time.) When the only person you could pay was the coach and his staff, it didn't matter how much coaches made. Now, his unusually high salary takes from the monies KU can pay players.

Bill has made plenty over his coaching career. Let me suggest that if he really wants another chance at another national championship (which I believe is why he is still coaching), have him reduce his own pay to $1 million next year (He could live on that.) and donate the rest to buying two additional good players. That's what $4.5 million each would get us.

Otherwise, let's salute him for being the winningest coach in KU basketball history and move on. An up and coming coach at much less than $10 million a year gives us much more payroll for that coach's roster. In the age of modern college basketball, I think KU needs to invest more wisely. (Approxinfinity's words).

Bill should give up most of his salary to buy a couple more talented players. C'mom. He's made plenty.
Hey, Bill. Buy YOURSELF a championship.

We had FOUR fouls to give! Pitino had blown all of his timeouts.

Marko lacks a quick first step and Bball IQ

But we would have had to play Duke.

@DanR Few schools would want him.

Bill told them to foul, but not to foul too soon.

@Kcmatt7 Bill is stubborn

@approxinfinity This tslent played below potential today

Clear it out for DP
