This. I hate it when people say stuff like that. And a few people were the same way on Phog.net. Someone said I'm so done with Svi. Next thing you know Svi is making huge plays. Vick doesn't suck. He's struggling a bit lately but hopefully, he'll get over it. [Reply]

Bill Self is getting fatter than shit. And maybe that's why he didn't wear a suit. Stole tonight's outfit from Huggins closet. I had the game on mute because I was doing other shit, but I bet that ****er's suits dont fit him anymore so he had to go w/ the shitty looking pullover.
He said he and Huggy were having coffee and he agreed to wear that. Huggy bought it for him. [Reply]

Agreed....Svi and Vick had big moments tonight when it was absolutely needed.
Team showed a lot of fight in them tonight.....Great win. [Reply]

Most importantly, considering the environment and opponent, that was the best game Svi has ever played. Does this mean he isn't soft anymore?

Vick didn't box out on the most important FT of the game and then threw a horrific shot up immediately after that (lucky for him somebody was there to follow it). He's been doing things like this for over a month now. This is who this guy is, a soft and low BBIQ basketball player. [Reply]

Yeah, I was screaming at the TV on Vick's lack of box out. You're pointing all of the things he's struggling with but ignoring the things he's doing well. Your hyperbole is not necessary. In any case, I do agree that he does need to play better. [Reply]

You are a god. I thought KU would get blown the fuck out. I was wrong. I love Bill Self.
PB is somewhere in a corner mumbling Bail Bail Bail rocking back and forth sucking his thumb. [Reply]
