Dam I feel so bad for that Duke team – and Mr do it everything. – LJ saying they had a game like this against KU , and Calvin giving the Big Twelve- saying shout out to all his Big Twelve Brothern – A Big 12 team playing for the Title & not fricken Duke.— Gotta love it.
Another case where all these 5 Stars and player of the year falling short

@Crimsonorblue22 Really? He has some skeletons?

I respect the hell out of Sampson
Guy’s who got in trouble for getting caught paying players I don’t care about anymore. If you can coach and aren’t a woman beater/predator than by all means who cares about $$$ 10-20 years ago.
Everyone paid players

Let’s end the night right folks……Fuck Duke!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Yikes, I just started reading a CBS article. Exonerated but also not completely cleared of some really inappropriate stuff.
As I’ve thought about young guys who could be our next coach I thought about him. NOT anymore! Scheyer is young, maybe we could get him. Wouldn’t that be a coup?!!
-
-
@wissox no brotherhood! Would’ve liked to have seen coach K and the Mrs riding off in their golf cart!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 I was joking about Scheyer!
-
I know!
-
@FarmerJayhawk read a good article about him. He tells his guys if they don’t like to be coached tough, this isn’t the place for them! Guessing our transfers won’t be going there.
-
If you don’t think Kelvin Sampson is one of the best coaches in CBB right now, you’re a fool no doubt
2021: Final Four, AAC tournament champions
2022: Elite Eight, AAC regular season and tournament champions
2023: Sweet 16, AAC regular season champions
2024: Sweet 16, B12 regular season champions
2025: National title game (could win it all yet), B12 regular season and tournament champions.

May landing Yaxel
McLasland
McCollum
I think all 3 potentially better than Oats and on par with Golden
-
@Crimsonorblue22 said in NCAA Tournament Discussion:
I just read an article on Golden, how on earth is he still employed?
Look at what school he is at and what they let Urban Meyer’s players get away with.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 Urban Meyer is a terrible human not sure why he is even allowed on TV for big noon kick off.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 surprised he’s not in jail. Just disgusting. Brett Favre like only worse.
-
Duke fans must drink a cocktail of Missouri and gin now. I hate Duke.
-
@wissox I’m sorry about your grandma and I understand your connection to the place. I’m talking strictly about the basketball team and i despise everything about them.
-
@nuleafjhawk I understood that and didn’t intend to make you feel badly about anything.
-
My assistant coach for baseball is a die hard Dukie. Today should be fun at practice. How soon is too soon?
-
@BeddieKU23 The instant that you see them.
-
@BeddieKU23 Depends, how much crap, and when did he give it to you for KUs wretched season? Some people are just friends who root for the wrong team and have a common thing - both our teams lost in humiliating fashion. It can be friendly, but it doesn’t have to be.
I prefer to kill the local KSU fans with kindness most of the year - it takes their legs out from under them…and then rip their shriveled black hearts out when it hurts most. When KU wins big I’m obnoxiously happy and they feed into that with their misery. Rarely is there a need to cut them down, but on occasion it’s nice to remind them of how great their football team is and ask about the last NC game they played in or BCS/ny6 bowl game they won or playoff games they’ve made…

Have fun with your Duke friend. Choose violence if that’s the most fun for ya.
-
@nuleafjhawk this is the way.
-
@dylans I always congratulate my KSU people on their Livestock Judging Championships. A few of them are smart enough to know it’s not a compliment. A very few.
-
Taking everything under advisement, I’ll be laying the heat since that’s what I got a few weeks ago in the first round. Only feels right to bring balance to the world lol
-
@BeddieKU23 if you want to show some sympathy, you can suggest that it’s too bad they didnt have this crew: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/early-lead/wp/2015/04/07/ncaas-head-of-officiating-admits-the-referees-got-a-critical-call-wrong-in-the-duke-wisconsin-game/
-
I tend not to pile on others when their teams lose; I know how painful it is and certainly don’t like others giving me shit when KU loses. I just go with the “tough loss” and move on to something else.
-
Duke Coach Jon Scheyer blamed Cooper Flagg for Duke’s Final Four loss.

AI is getting good
-
@tundrahok lol. I knew it was a fake the minute Scheyer showed any personality.
-
UConnjust absolutely destroyed South Carolina by 23 to win their 12th national title and first since 2016. I really wouldn’t have guessed this was their first title in 10 years. Paige Bueckers has been so much fun to watch over her career and will now be going to Dallas in the WNBA draft on the 14th.
-
She is such an incredible player and a very humble person.
Geno has created a legacy in Women’s BB.
They destroyed 3 #1 seeds in this tournament.
-
Not a UConn fan normally, but that was a UConn team for the ages. Probably jumpstarted another run of championships.
Incredible to win 2 final four games by 25-30 points each.
-
I watched the game on ESPN and they had Sue Bird and Diana Taurasi doing the commentary. They were good — solid in game analysis (until it was a blow out, with good color commentary and an entertaining back and forth. It was clear they like and respect one another as players.

Your definitely in tune with Scheyer! You spot a rat a mile away
-
I gotta pull for Houston tonight - - just gotta , for Big Twelve reasons, plus after the things Sampson said supporting the League- ya got to
-
I’m pulling for Houston as well. I am surprised that Vegas had Florida 1.5 pt favorite. Houston has most of the profile characteristics of a national champ. Experienced team and coach who have experience on a quick 24-36hr turn around; won both their league and league championship; close to home; elite defense (a la ‘defense wins championships’).
-
Man those Houston bigs are tough, super athletic, and have scoring touch. We need bigs just like that
-
The game is being played at Houston’s pace so far, Florida is struggling with the in your face defense. Houston has 10 more shots so far but only a 4 point lead
-
Houston leads 31-28 at the half, only 4 fouls called in a very physical game which I like. The big call was obvious missed goal tend on Florida that led to a 3 Houston could easily be up 8 right now. Will be interesting usually in most CBB when it’s physical, the refs change the whistle in the second half and call it tight.
-
I wish this Houston team had “KANSAS” written across their jerseys
-
@nuleafjhawk they honestly remind me a lot of the 2008 and 2012 Jayhawks. Very athletic and hard nosed defense while playing together very well.

Now the tight whistle has shown up 7 fouls on each team in the first 7 minutes smh.
-
@kjayhawks I agree. I’ve seen a couple of floor burns tonight. I almost forgot what that was. They may still lose. But they’re playing like grown men.
-
Houston gave it away with an assist from the officials
-
I’m just gonna be honest here, it’s like Vegas buzzed the officials in that one
-
Houston couldn’t get a basket
-
Florida needed a guest appearance of joakim noah air humping. All class.
-
Wow, the ‘foul’ on the loose ball leads to the winning FT’s. Florida guy steps out on his own. Ref makes up a push call. Would’ve been nice to see the Big12 get another championship, but Houston seized up at the wrong time and couldn’t make shots to save their championship.
-
1983 loss has to be the worst for Houston ever, maybe the worst championship loss ever for any team. To now be the butt of jokes on social media for that last possession is going to hurt a lot as well.
