And Indiana couldn’t overcome losing Haliburton to a ruptured achilles. Nick Collison is a member of the Thunder’s front office so there is at least one Jayhawk getting a ring this season. Really wish Haliburton hadn’t gotten injured because this had been a great series and may have had a different outcome if he doesn’t get hurt.

College basketball will have a couple of significant rule changes for next season. Coaches will be allowed one challenge per game as long as they have a timeout. The three things that can be challenged are out of bounds calls, goaltending, and restricted arc calls. If a coach is successful, they will get another challenge. Officials can still use replay for everything they previously have been allowed to. Another big change the NCAA is introducing a continuation rule for fouls similar to what the NBA has. Another rule change is that incidental contact to the groin area can now be deemed a Flagrant 1 whereas before it was an automatic Flagrant 2 and ejection. One rule that has been discussed and is not changing yet is game format. Games will still be two 20 minute halves. There’s been a lot of discussion about moving to quarters in recent years, but advertisers have been the big hold up on that as they would lose a TV timeout each half.

Doug Gotlieb coming to AFH on 11/3 as a coach will be interesting.

This case is going to heard by a US District judge on Friday. The NCAA’s response is actually pretty good. They basically said that of Zeigler had an NBA future, he would’ve already gone pro and wouldn’t be worried about this. The US DOJ pretty much agrees with the NCAA on telling Zeigler it’s time to move on. https://www.on3.com/teams/kentucky-wildcats/news/u-s-department-of-justice-ncaa-to-zakai-zeigler-get-a-job/

@Texas-Hawk-10 said in NFL Draft: OL Logan Brown to Minnesota I’m thinking he will make the team.

He will be rehabbing too.

I really like Hanni too. He spends so much time raising money for cancer. I really love watching Hawk Talk too, fun getting to know the coaches and all the players.

It’s definitely a possibility. Pretty much everyone’s projections has KU as a 6 or 7 seed.

The booth was hilarious!

Defense has been the weak link during the Leipold era and that’s no secret. I like what I have heard on him thus far.

@Zabudda ABC is getting a lot of talks after they leaked election results at the bottom of the screen during an Indy car race last weekend showing a 100 percent of the proceedings for PA.

I think the best option is still to go to the B10 or SEC. But if the ACC implodes would the B12 still be considered a power conference with the other 2 if they added let’s say FSU, Clemson, NC state, UL and Miami? I think it would be pretty damn tough to not consider that a power conference. The best thing that this conference can do is send a team to the CFB or 2 and win some games. Academically I think will take about anyone we have WVU and TT. If I’m not mistaken WVU is one the lowest rated D1 academic programs in the land. It was really silly to add them they brought very little to nothing to the table. Mostly average athletics and very small media market.

@MR11 I’ve been fortunate enough to sit in many seats in AFH. My favorite was 5 rows behind the KU bench (free from 30 yr season ticket holders) and my least favorite up in 13a or 9a. Easily the worst seats and hard to get in and out of.

Our team should be a lot better than last yr. Lacked guards!

@mayjay I haven’t forgotten it because I never knew it! I don’t mind playback games when they’re in Maui or something because we want to see us play again, but I understand it in March too.

@Texas-Hawk-10 thx, so excited for them! They gave us a fun couple of yrs.

Benny Mac is one of my favs, he had such a hard life. I know he didn’t want to leave but had to help his family. I hate this, for many reasons.

I really like the no extra point kick in the UFL. The extra point is 1, 2 or 3 pts. from the 2, 5 or 10 yd lines.

My guess, and just a guess, is that he’s timing this where no players can realistically leave before the semester. They can enter the portal but schools almost always honor the scholarships through the semester. Plus he can choose his successor.
