This is my first time posting here. I have been an avid reader. My favorite poster is easily @HighEliteMajor. I told my wife a few weeks ago after the Analysis and Paralysis thread that I have learned more basketball from this man’s posts than I had in my prior 75 years.
I see @HighEliteMajor’s post here and what Self said is amazing. I know HEM is kidding about walking on the moon and such but Bill Self’s comments were really amazing.
Really I don’t think @HighEliteMajor should be humble here. This is EXACTLY what he was saying.
There have been some posters that have really gotten nasty with him. I think that’s because he challenges you to look past the superficial things that we see with Kansas basketball. I think he also make people uncomfortable because they like Bill Self.
But guess what? I think @HighEliteMajor likes Bill Self too he just doesn’t think he’s always 100% right, he thinks Self is human. I would say he has been consistint in saying things that he likes that Self does and he focuses on the things he thinks are hurting this team.
Bill Self said that we should focus on our strengths and that we tried to force it to become something we were not last season. I read HEM all last season and that’s what he said.
Think of it this way I guess. Why didn’t Bill Self realize this last season?
I’m sorry if I sound like an HEM homer but when someone is right, they are right. And I probably would not have posted if some at this site didn’t really attack him last season for his thoughts.
IF BILL SELF IS ALWAYS RIGHT THEN READ ABOVE GUYS. HEM WAS RIGHT.
By the way I love this site. Best KU talk around. And really like all of the good basketball knowledge here. @drgnslayr is one of my favorites and @ralster also. I cant read everything @jaybate-1.0 does it is much too long sometimes.
Thanks to all of you for making a retired guy enjoy KU basketball more!!!
