I'm not always wrong. People just like to say that because I say things they don't like to hear.
When this team was highly ranked at the beginning of the year, I said I didn't think they were a great team. I said we likely would be a #4 seed and everyone freaked out and said min #2 and started pumping sunshine.
I was really high on last years team once I saw how much Doke had improved and we were overall #1 seed.
I predicted KU Football to go 11-1 their orange bowl year and I even made a thread about it before the szn. Everyone said I was an idiot.
I'm undefeated in Chiefsplanet bets, too. 3-3 [Reply]
Man BWillie, thx for giving it to us straight. Don’t let these haters crimp your style or dissuade you from being the great oracle of the thread [Reply]
Pretty much every time someone says "and everyone freaked out", it never happened.
And with a prediction like this, who can ever be wrong?
Hey guys, I think the Chiefs' ceiling next season is 17 wins and their floor is 10 wins. I'll be quoting this later after you all freak out.

The only guys who can really get their shot are Bryce Thompson and Jalen Wilson somewhat. This team has no rim protector with McCormack. The good news is we have the potential to have the best backcourt defensive team in the nation in Harris, Garrett and Agbaji (even though he's an overrated defender but still very good).

To be fair, KU is shit this year. From watching the tournament so is everyone else, but suggesting KU might not win walking away isn’t some unwarranted melt down. [Reply]

Thank your for pulling that up and re-affirming that I am indeed Nostradamus or some kind of wizard.

I mean, of course we can get blown out. If we shoot poorlybwe could. BPI index has it a 51% chance of KU win. Vegas is 50-50. Cant get any closer.
I will say this was exactly the scenario 2 years ago when Auburn blew our doors off :-) [Reply]
At least USC doesn't shoot threes like Auburn. No idea how KU will score on this team, though. From watching Mobley, he should be able to easily handle a player like McCormack in the post or any kind of drives from Garrett (unless of course we go small and use Wilson to pull Mobley away from the paint, which I would suggest Self at least tries). Braun and Agbaji better choose this night to step up and make shots instead of shriveling under the pressure. [Reply]

Even before the bracket came out, I thought there was a good chance KU didn't make it out of the first weekend.
No go to player on offense and too inconsistent.
But I also thought that their three point shooting upside, coaching, defense and being battle tested gave them a reasonable hope for an upset or two and getting a final four ring.
But that was before I knew that they had pulled Gonzo's bracket. [Reply]
