Love KU Obv but never understood the infatuation with senior day or these speeches. I was there years ago when Luke axtell, who sucked balls and had to quit playing, gave some 20min spiel about his hardships
I kept begging my friends to leave but they loved it. Soooo weird [Reply]

Though I know you get your rocks off on all things KU, tell me about your team. Putting you as the 8 (feels low) in our bracket is in vogue right now by the experts, and I'm interested in what the matchup would look like.
How has your team changed after the departures of Baker and VV? How deep is your team? What's allowed Marshall to reload to be a wrecking ball in the Valley again?
Inb4 Chickenhawks, Bail would choke. Rock Choke KU. [Reply]

I think they should play home games until the Final Four in the NCAA Tournament. The NCAA Tournament is a joke anyway penalizing teams by watering down their regular season success. At least home court advantage may help it to be less of a free for all. [Reply]

Plus with the amount Bill pays the refs I'm not really sure if we're getting a fair return on his investment. [Reply]
Any of you ****s ever been in Vegas for the NCAA Tournament? I'm going this year and need some tips. I'm cheap so I'm not paying $200 a day to sit to watch a game but would be nice if I could pay to reserve a place to watch it. I don't care if they serve food or d rinks as long as I can come in and out as I please. I plan to go in and out all day drinking, eating, gambling too. [Reply]

WSU would match up fairly well with KU. I'm not sure who would guard Mason but I suspect it would be Landry Shamet and Daishon Smith. He'd get his drives but hopefully not be efficient (can't foul him on the drive).
The big challenge would be Zach Browns Defense against Josh Jackson or they could put McDuffie on him. Then there's the X factor with Frankamp against Graham. Graham impresses me and loves the moment. Frankamp wants sweet revenge. (Marshall has taught him to play some D this year as well.) Vick is another good player. Lucas is Lucas.
Wichita has 10-15 fouls to give at every position except point Guard. They're deep and there are 9-10 very good scorers on the team.
This team averages 80pts a game and gives up only about 38% shooting on D. The offense is much less predictable than last year with Fred and Ron. The analytics I saw had KU a 1 point favorite in a hypothetical matchup but you could throw that out the window as the winner would be the team who has the superior mental toughness and executes. It's a toss up on a neutral court in my opinion.
I'd rather WSU didn't play KU early. I'd rather be in Gonzagas Region and get a second crack at Michigan State. Izzos guys would underestimate WSU.
For the record I'm not always anti KU. I just can't stand entitled KU fan. Love to puncture that balloon. I'm looking at you reerun 😀 I will say that Allen is a special place to play. The crowd willed KU into winning that game last night. Tremendous atmosphere.
WSU needs to get out of the Valley and into the AAC. KU should then schedule home and home and neutral and neutral with WSU. I know it won't happen though so I hope for a Regional meeting with KU.
Love this time of year. Let the chips fall where they may boys!! [Reply]

I've been at Mandalay for the tourney, Ceasars is fun too. I don't remember having to pay to be in the sports books. [Reply]

Why? What has Kansas done to separate from peers? The Sagarin ranking has us -1 over Wichita St and dead even with Florida, Dook and UVA (we beat Dook on a last second jumper anyway).
Why are we being "penalized" having to play neutral site games? It is YOUR suggestion that those teams have to travel to AFH in the
Postseason that is penal. [Reply]
