So why is Self starting him when we have all that talent on the bench? Self should let the talented players riding the pine get a lot more minutes in our "tomato can" part of our schedule. See who deserves to start based on performance in live games. [Reply]

For the same reason he has started someone that shouldn't be starting every year for the past 15 or so years.... he generally values experience over talent at the beginning of the year. [Reply]

That's why I was kind of surprised when Dotson was starting over Moore in that first game.
But it became clear pretty quickly that Dotson is way better. [Reply]

If Grimes is going to shoot like that - you dont need his 3 pt shooting - but I think you'll find that was quite an anamoly. [Reply]

Hey wait a minute, I’ve been pointing out how bad Vick is for years and actually contested your claim that he would be drafted in the first round last year. :-) [Reply]

KU getting ready to lay the wood to the Vermont Catamounts. Time to get that #1 ranking back. Dedric should be able to dominate these guys without elite athletes :-) [Reply]
