@approxinfinity The thing is KU basketball players are only that. I don’t care about their personal life. I don’t care about what they did before or after KU basketball. So if they’re not a KU basketball player they’re no one. There are something like 25k students at KU - I don’t know a single one. I want them all to succeed, but if they don’t I will never know. No skin off my keister. Same with KU basketball players, I don’t know anything more than they play basketball. There will be articles telling me they went shopping for the less fortunate for Christmas, but Bill makes them do that. If one of them does something special outside of basketball while playing for KU that would be a first. For instance - we’ve all been told about Thomas Robinson and the hardships he faced during his tenure at KU. Losing loved ones is always difficult and becoming the head of the household at such a tender age is difficult at the least. Did a single person on here try to offer any tangible support for Thomas or his sister? Send a letter of support to TRob or a goodie bag to the little gal? Fan mail when he was struggling in the NBA? Nah, because the support is superficial and really tied to KU basketball. It all rings hollow when people say they care about the individual- that’s compete bs. We only know them because of KU. They are nothing to us before they become a recruit of KU and only are in our lives because of KU. If they in turn spurn KU then they are out of my life too.

A high flyer at the 3 and a freight train at the 4. Sounds like a fun combo.
