The ACC has released their schedule for 2020. The only two teams still looking for a non-conference game are Clemson and North Carolina. We should have all answers about teams final schedules in a little over two weeks as the NCAA set an August 21 deadline for different levels to decide if they will have an NCAA championship this fall. If more than half of the school’s at a specific level have less than half their schools playing this season, then there will be no NCAA championship for this year. For example, if less than 50% of FCS level schools don’t compete this season, then there would be no FCS football championship this season.

Big 12 going to a 9+1 model. So SIU plus regular league schedule.

Lol I gotta pause here guys @mayjay @benshawks08 (I like where we ended up on your last post) . A good stopping point for tonight for me. I really appreciate the thoughtful conversation. Needed it. I’ve been deep in a shell for like a month and this is the first I’ve really felt like talking. Thank you.

I think I read that one of Wilt’s cars was still around.

KU’s originally scheduled game against Harvard on Dec. 29 that was cancelled because of Harvard not playing has been replaced by Stephen F. Austin. SFA is a damn good low major program and just last season upset then #1 Duke in OT at Cameron.

@Texas-Hawk-10 I would get that as well, he is undersized at this level but has great run blocking capabilities. I’d bet he ends up on the practice squad. Either way congrats to Hakeem!

Pistol Pete is overlooked for a lot. Dude was doing no look passes before it was cool and hitting 25 plus foot shots for only 2 points.

Awesome. I would love to go to Spokane and attend that game.

@wissox said in ESPN's Greatest College Basketball Players of All Time Bracket: @Crimsonorblue22 Remember Billy Packer almost jinxing us by declaring the game over. I mean we were winning by something like 25, but it was the 1st half and we did nearly give it all away before reasserting ourselves. I also appreciated Danny Greens effort. The only Tarheel that came to play.

IT’S always refreshing to hear funny during trying times we might be facing. - -Just like this, as Larry the Cable guy says ( I don’t care who you are that’s funny right there ) lmao

Looks like Jacque has the Nets on a roll. 2-0 after beating the Lakers at Staples Center.

Lol more fans at the bars in Lawrence trying to console themselves right now than players on the court at any given time.

@FarmerJayhawk said in Changes to coaching staff.: @jayballer73 said in Changes to coaching staff.: @Kcmatt7 said in Changes to coaching staff.: Hull was a HS coach with some ties. Nothing more. Whether he was just a high School coach or not which I know he was, I think this move your gonna see repercussions . YA , YA, I know you say he was landing recruits. - - Well until we as a WHOLE COACHING STAFF, not just Tony - - until this Staff can get us MORE WINS on the filed then it isn’t going to make a dam bit of difference. - We can Thank Tony for getting us ONE of our very few bright spots - that we DO have on the field. - -You think things were slim in the La area before? - we sure didn’t do ourselves any favors by firing Tony - -word gets around. Tony is the one who brought us the LA connection - you best be finding some stud that all players have that Connection with in that area now - - Don’t say Les, if that was the case why hadn’t they commit even without Tony. Stupid move - - P - - -= poor move Moronic move - -just shows how sad this program is - another BAD - - BAD - - BAD decision this dept and Staff made We didn’t fire him. No hard feelings. His contract expires at the end of the month and he didn’t want to come back. ya, after exploring some more have to totally recant 95% of what I posted, Sounds more like it was Tony then anything else. - -Still a very big loss, we sure have had the turnover. - -Not sure if it is conflict with Les or what. - - Tony was a major player to the LA pipeline, gonna be interesting to what happen with current LA players on team and any commits that we might have that was coming in for this coming year - -Need to get someone who has a really good LA connection

@stoptheflop that and sitting here thinking about how they didnt even review it ticks me off. It was a crucial play for both teams and late in the going. I’m not sure who the crew was but I hope they weren’t B12 and we never see them again.

Hard to argue with at this point, kinda the same as basketball just on the opposite end. Until we can prove we can win more than 1 conference game a season (2008 last year with multiple conference wins) hard to pick otherwise.

Next game is Tennessee January 25 https://247sports.com/college/kansas/Article/Bill-Self-and-KU-basketball-release-2019-20-non-conference-schedule-132565365/ that’s insane - -how the hell did that happen Like @Woodrow said, it’s just the non-conference slate. The league schedule hasn’t been released yet. Our first league game is usually right around the first of the year. ya I read his post after I posted this lol - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

My picks to come out of each region are Duke over Sparty in the east. Michigan over Gonzaga in the west. The south is the hardest region to pick because so many of the top seeds have a history of early exits. I think I’m going with Wisconsin over Villanova in the south. In the midwest, I’ll take UNC over Kentucky. In the Final Four, I’ll go with Michigan over Duke and UNC over Wisconsin and in the title game, I’ll take UNC over Michigan and Roy announces his retirement after the season.

@wissox I think a couple of things may be in play. We haven’t necessarily fared all that well in KC…the KU crowd is not as loud and effective as rattling the opponent as we see in AFH…could be type of fan (i.e non-rowdy student), acoustics that affect the noise. Also,…I can imagine that NC and Kentucky fans may have already bought tickets on the secondary market gambling that their chances are pretty good they make it there. Further, those that wait until they see if they make it…are probably pretty willing to pay a high price to go. Hence,…I don’t think we will have the advantage that some might think on the surface.
