The Bulls are a trainwreck. Until GarPax is dealt with, it might be one of the worst sports franchises to coach in professional sports. Granted, Bill could sign a $35m contract which isn't anything to sneeze at, but still hard to swallow knowing you're gonna fail.
I would think there would be a better NBA option for him, unless he's jumping fast to get out ahead of the FBI stuff. [Reply]
As an outsider if you guys didn't lose Azubuike, you're likely looking at 15 B12's in a row.
What Self has done at KU is nothing short of legendary, and I can't see who will ever break that record of 14 conference titles in a row in any of the Power 5 conferences, but all good things come to an end. But, just an amazing run, and the envy of every college BB team and fan out there. [Reply]
Yeah, going to the Bulls makes little sense. Organization is a mess, they have terrible management, and no real future. He'd be fired within a few years of going there like Hoiberg, so unless the money is that much better, it doesn't really add up. I'll believe it when I see it. [Reply]
(Mid major) is amazing at (something), which exploits Kansas' (weakness). They are the best (seed) ever and should have been a (+3 seed). Kansas was given no favors with this matchup, UPSET ALERT! [Reply]

I'm already panicking. Thank you for stepping up and giving up this hard hitting advanced analysis! [Reply]

I was wondering if maybe there was a connection there from his time at Illinois. [Reply]

Hey man, NW Southern Baptist Community College put together an amazing conference tourney run and they're hitting threes at an amazing clip! Advanced analysis for you there. [Reply]
