      Whew!!! You yelled that just in the nick of time. I was about to whip out a recipe for a killer German Chocolate Cake.

    • Oh My Josh

      Hope there’s not already another thread about this guy…

      This guy is a BEAST. I am always comfortable when Frank and/or Devonte have the ball in their hands. I am always STOKED when Josh has it. What’s this guy gonna do next? One hand stuff from the free throw line? Crazy pass from the top of the key that no one else can make? Float in from halfcourt and finish with a two hand jam from Frank or Devonte? Make free throws in the clutch when everyone says he can’t shoot free throws? Block a shot? Play great defense?

      This kid is amazing. Way better than…previous OAD’s and way, way, way better than what I expected at the beginning of the season.

      I’d give up 3 years of football bowl eligibility to keep him here another 3 years.

      I crack myself up.

    • If Tomorrow Comes...

      I’ll go to early church and thank God that the sun came up. I could do it at home, but the church has really good music…

      After church, I’ll go to late breakfast with my great brother in law and his incredible wife.

      After that I’ll go visit my sister-in-law who has stage IV pancreatic and liver cancer.

      Sometime tomorrow afternoon, I’ll call my 81 year old dad in Texas and see how he’s feeling after having a cancerous kidney removed on Monday.

      Then I’ll call my two incredible kids in Kansas City and see how their week was.

      I’ll prepare myself for the onslaught of BS at work on Monday. And you know what?

      It won’t bother me one bit.

    • RE: What Made Frank's Season So Great?

      What made Frank (not even his season) is that he’s a Man. Not a punk. Does his job. Doesn’t complain when the calls go against him, doesn’t take credit when he puts the whole team on his shoulders (as he did many times in his career). He’s humble, determined (to the point of obsessed during the games), and smart. Can we PLEASE get the NCAA to allow him 3 or 4 more years of eligibility? If nothing else, just to be an example of what a college basketball player should be.

      @Kip_McSmithers Going to Texas would give him the opportunity to lose to KU every year…

    • RE: 8 Years of Frank

      @drgnslayr I was talking with a friend this morning and said we’ve had this same conversation about a hundred players over the years.

      Where are we going to find the next Aaron Miles? Jacque Vaughn? Danny Manning? Nick Collison? Raef LaFrentz? Sherron Collins? I mean this list could literally go on for hours.

      But they do it. The coaches are out there constantly finding/making great talented kids who become Jayhawk legends. I am already stoked to see who the next one will be after Frank. (I wish he could stay another 4 years also!)

      I think most people on here know how I feel about Josh Jackson - I think he is by far, without question the best OAD that we’ve ever had, and maybe ever will have. I love when he has the ball in his hands. But he will never in a million years occupy the space in my heart that Frank Mason or many, many other 4 year guys will have. Losing Frank is almost like a death in the family. I hope that doesn’t offend anyone who has recently lost a loved one, and i know i tend to exaggerate, but it’s kind of similar. There’s a grieving process to go through.

      Hopefully the National Championship this year will relieve some of the grief.

    • RE: Heading to the Game Wednesday...advice?

      A game at Allen Fieldhouse is really something spectacular - even if you’re not a KU fan. Here’s what I mean: Many years ago (2011- I googled it) I had two tickets to KU v Ohio State. We were ranked #13 and Ohio State was #2. My wife and I were friends with a gal whose husband was a big Buckeye fan. For some reason I still can’t fathom, I asked him to go to the game. I pick him up at his house and he’s decked out head to toe in Red/Gray. He didn’t even have the car door shut and he was running his mouth about how bad they were going to kick our butts.

      So, I endured the 2 1/2 hour drive to Lawrence and we got there 2-3 hours early. We toured the whole place, saw everything there was to see- all the trophies, etc. Then we get into the fieldhouse and there’s the usual pre-game festivities. The chants, the videos, all the hoopla. I’d noticed for some time that he was getting quieter and running his mouth less. Just before tip-off he told me " This place is unbelievable - I have goose bumps - Ohio State doesn’t have ANYTHING like this ".

      We could have gone home right then and I would have been happy. Fortunately we won.

    • RE: An ugly topic: Bill Self’s health

      It seems like this post went from Bill Self having heart issues to him being a staggering drunk. Unless he publicly says “Hey - I’m a staggering drunk”, everyone should probably quit talking about it. So he gains a few extra pounds. At 60 years old. I know a lot of heavy 60 year olds. And 20/30/40/50…you get the idea. He can afford good food now. He doesn’t have to eat beanie-weenies and kraft mac & cheese any more. He probably doesn’t like diet soda.

      It would be like seeing your buddy’s wife wearing a short skirt and saying " I knew it. She’s a prostitute. For real. One of the main symptoms of being a prostitute is wearing a short skirt."

      Grow up people. As far as I know, this is still a country where people are innocent until proven guilty. I’ll drink to that.

    • RE: Ben McLemore Charged with Rape in Portland

      @Texas-Hawk-10 believe be, brother, I’m familiar with alcohol and it’s consequences. I’ve woken up under a lot of strange toilets in the past. I’ve been in bar fights because someone didn’t like Black Sabbath (gasp). But I never raped anyone.

      @SlimShaddy54 besides that - why forcibly? I remember thinking he’s a pretty good looking guy, got a little fame and money. I have to believe thar the ladies would have been attracted to him. He’s a dumbass. A criminal dumbass.

    • RE: My memorable moments

      One very fond memory actually took place in Manhattan. A long time ago. Must have been the early 90’s (it’s not even 5am, don’t feel like researching it).

      For some reason I was at the game by myself. We got our assses handed to us the whole game. Just played awful, so I was pretty quiet.

      We fought back slowly and by the last possession we were down 2, I believe. With 3 or 4 seconds left Steve Woodberry brought the ball up the court quickly and, with time running out, launched a loooong 3 point shot which he drained and we won by one point!

      I launched out of my seat, arms raised, double fist pump and screamed “HELL YEEEEAAAAHHH!”

      And everyone in the building heard me because, after Steve’s shot, it got stone cold quiet in there and apparently I was the only KU fan there that day.

      It was a long, tense walk to my car.

    • RE: Not Sure

      @approxinfinity I retired. It’s very bittersweet because I loved my job and felt like I was pretty good at it, but the company had no leadership and every day was Jr High all over again. I’m thankful and blessed that I was able to retire, but I sure feel bad for the few good employees that are "left behind "
