    • Wins like these win championships

      You know Self is happy about this one. Yeah, there’s stuff he will wish would’ve gone better, but with your star PG with the flu, the refs calling more phantom calls, Tech playing out of their minds, and the fans going crazy, this is a fantastic win for KU.

      Other Big XII teams lose these games. Not the Jayhawks. They win. And they win championships.

    • Thank you Jamari!

      Does anyone know if Jamari is okay? He took a beating for us. Played his heart out and took some hard falls. Stats won’t show, but I think he played the game of his life last night and might have played longer if he could’ve. He’s a senior, he lives and breathes KU basketball, and he’s come a LONG way. Extremely proud of him today and hope he’s okay.

    • RE: Frank Mason - NPOY

      I remember thinking way back in the day that there was no way Frank Mason would be better than Tharpe. What a dumbass I was!

      Good for him and his program. Would be more interesting to have his wife on though.

      Can’t believe this happened after midnight. I thought people made good decisions after midnight…

    • RE: Post Game Impressions of KU's Win at the Octogon of Silage

      @elpoyo said:

      the sad part is, both times we played KSU, we barely beat them. Seriously…we should be stomping them by 20 regardless of home court or not. Don’t give me BS like they are legit and are tough at home.

      Its a big concern if we can barely beat KSU, how will we fare in the tourney.

      Yeah, Baylor agrees. SMH

    • RE: My crisis of faith in Bill

      Long time no see guys. I think we’ll be ok. Bill is generally flexible. He fell in love with an old love (big man ball) but I’m sure he’ll snap out of it. Just give him a little time, he’s earned it.

    • RE: Anyone else feel this way?

      I thought it was just me. Honestly I lost a lot of interest when Mahomes started playing for the Chiefs. I only have so much sports attention to go around.

    • RE: Myron Medcalf Disrespecting Kansas Basketball

      And under his reasoning for 2019 Duke, no mention of whatever year we had Wiggins and Embiid?

      And I just realized he had the Memphis team we beat much higher too. Seems like not just a Dookie but a Dumb Dookie to boot.

    • Myron Medcalf Disrespecting Kansas Basketball

      https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/38462860/the-25-best-men-college-basketball-seasons-25-years

      He ranked the top 25 teams from first to worst.

      • Issue #1: He gives Duke’s '99 team–who lost in the championship–the #4 spot? Led by Elton Brand? You gotta have more star power to be the 4th best in 25 years if you don’t even win the natty.

      • Issue #2: He has Baylor’s title team as better than any team KU has had over the past 25 years? I highly doubt that.

      • Issue #3: KU’s '08 title team–the only team to win with a final four group of all #1s–IS #13 ON THE LIST?! Blasphemy. Seriously, though, it’s just dumb. We had so many studs on that team: Chalmers, Rush, Russell Robinson, Darrell Arthur, Darnell Jackson, and Sherron Freaking Collins, Sasha Kaun, and Cole Aldrich off the bench. Medcalf probably thinks Lebron is the GOAT too.

      • Issue #4: Per issue #1, you don’t have to win a natty to be on the list. Then why isn’t our '20 team, arguably the most dominant team KU has had over the past 25 years, 2nd to last on this list?

      • Issue #5: Our last title team was the worst on this list over the past 25 years? I’m sorry, after this trash list, the burden of proof is on Medcalf or anyone else to prove why this team should be this low. I won’t explain myself on this one.

    • RE: 2023 Recruiting

      @justanotherfan yep, that change of pace. I suppose if he can be sudden enough to create space for his shot then he’ll be fine.

      That change of pace is why Frank Mason was so good at getting to the basket. He wasn’t just blazing through the paint, he changed it up, kept people off balance, was prepared with floaters, etc. I love that kind of play.

    • RE: 2023 Recruiting

      For your viewing pleasure. One of the best highlight tapes I’ve seen in a while. Shows off his court awareness, ability to change pace, make quick decisions, and finish at and away from the rim.

      @jayballer67 would not be surprised at all to see him replace Remy. Jankovich connection.

      I still can’t help but think Drew’s winning last year helped motivate Self even more this year…

    • RE: NCAA loses more power... again...

      @Texas-Hawk-10 said in NCAA loses more power... again...:

      @chriz said in NCAA loses more power... again...: To answer your questions:

      1. No, none of KU’s issues involved NIL stuff.

      2. No, very few people will make enough from NIL deals to want to stay in school longer. If someone is good to turn pro early, that’s going to be more money than staying in school.

      3. Someone will end up as the poster child of how not to balance academic/athletic/NIL responsibilities

      4. Most NIL based deals will be relatively small and from local businesses. The NIL deal will have minimal impact on KU’s recruiting unless the athletic department totally botches how they handle and promote NIL opportunities to kids.

      I would think there’s a strong enough relationship between NIL and KU’s case that it may have some impact? E.g. If NIL existed then perhaps KU wouldn’t have done this or that (allegedly)?

      Also for the marginal kids, the ones who may or may not make money by declaring, perhaps NIL would give them the incentive they needed to return?
