I’m happy Kansas didn’t get punished substantially for dumb shit from 5 years ago, but the Morris thing is awful and needs to be addressed.
At least Self’s handling that a little better than Alabama and Oats did with some of his dumb ass comments. [Reply]

It’s fairly easy to justify Self’s action with Morris.
Gave the kid a second chance. Made it clear he better not fuck up.
Morris fucked up (even worse than the first time). Morris is gone. No more chances.
You could make the argument that he didn’t deserve a second chance, but Self immediately took action and he’s off the team. [Reply]

Kansas got a justifiably light sanction but this whole Morris situation is terrible and the fact Self had him on the team to begin with is ****ed.
I refuse to give that trash publication any clicks. So if you post a link, fuck off. If you want to copy and paste the story, I might read about it. [Reply]

I don’t think he should’ve gotten a second chance given that he plead no contest to what happened at Texas.
It’s one thing to be accused of something and have all charges dropped vs acknowledging that you did something wrong.
Self and administration deserve credit for removing him from the team after this occurrence in Lawrence, but he shouldn’t have been given that opportunity to fuck up to begin with. [Reply]

What exactly are you needing addressed? Self have him a second chance......

He didn't live up to those expectations and he's off the team.

Once the NCAA dies. Which will be sooner rather than later.
The ins come back. The banner goes back up and everyone else can get fucked. [Reply]
Who was it that had Sprint Center/TMobile Center tickets I was going to buy? I don't have PMs (mods removed them and cant figure out how to get them back) and my last day is tomorrow. Hopefully you will see this and we can exchange info. Would love to see the Hawks absolutely destroy Wichita State and Chiefaroos little heart [Reply]
