Cartier Martin and Clent Stewart are listed. Pullen is the only "name" I can think of that isn't listed.

No they don't, they're crap, may not even finish top 4. Iowa State pretty clearly has the most talent. If Bill Self had our roster they'd be two games up and I'm not even taking a shot at oscar oscar.

They're 5th now and only 1 game ahead of UT. I think Baylor will crash at some point, but it hasn't happened yet.
They are also only 1/2 game behind 1st place with 11 games left to play in conference. Bill Self has plenty of time not only to win the conference, but to win it by 2+ games.

Because you don't believe in voodoo, curses, just because, and other various nonsense. You have the best coach, but for the first time since the Jamaal Tinsley/Marcus Fizer cyclones, KU doesn't have the best roster.

I'm going to guess that they went two years because the guardians were being uncooperative and KU were attempting to smoke screen the NCAA with attempting plausible deniability. This doesn't appear to be a simple case of a kid receiving impermissible benefits from a booster. This is the guardians, multiple schools, and intermediaries shopping services, I think he's lucky to have any eligibility at all.

Stop talking like a battered housewife, @WillieWatanabe! They're going down this year!
At this point there's no justifiable basketball reason to think that they will win the league. They don't have anything close to the best talent, they can't win on the road, and they're losing scholarship players every other day. I'd get freaking out that they'd make up 2 games with 8 to play if they had the talent to do so. If K-State goes 5-4, they have to go 6-2 to tie, that's preposterous.

They've already lost to Arizona State, Texas, and West Virginia, and close home wins with New Mexico State and Stanford. You're and anyone else are rough ridin' fools if you think any game on their schedule is automatic.
Also you can think we'd lose every game on our schedule and KU still wouldn't be favorites to win the league. I'm starting to get more than mildly annoyed at you fuckers and your jinxes and curses bullshit. You don't want to think we're going to win the league, fine, flood aggie will.

I forgot they already had 4 losses. Honestly going 6-2 in the back half seems impossible. That would be 12-6 and wouldn’t be enough to even tie. I think we can officially say the streak is over.

Both teams also left a ton of opportunity at the FT line. KU must have missed 3 or more front ends of 1 and 1's and TCU was nearly as bad in the double bonus.
Post by: MakeItRain on February 12, 2019, 06:15:19 PM
Not using the timeout is fine with me until the possession was completely going to crap. They could have called the timeout with 4 seconds left and drawn something up halfway decent while their player panicked at the elbow.
I agree but I'm not sure how good the play would have been. They were scoring by getting KU spread and scrambling to recover on help, there wasn't time for that. I really don't think much of Alex Robinson.

Nate Powers would be a Squack legend with a statue next to Naismith if he was a Squack fan and did what he did to a KSU player.

You're such a dumbass, TBT. I hold degrees from both. KU is still #1 in my heart, but I'm also allowed to cheer for UT. Thank you, next.
Fair. So the masters is from UT? From my own experience, grad students who transfer between schools of the same conference have a sort of "code".
The school they really respect(First degree), then kind of a bandwagoney thing with their second school, depending on how good they are at sports. You fit a pretty lol category. I don't remember reading ANYTHING about "your horns" during football season. :lol: :lol: :lol:
It's a selective "I root for the team" thing.

Lightfoot is an interesting player to me. He apparently doesn’t get a lot of minutes and his stats aren’t great but for whatever reason I feel like he’s always there to make the plays that really get under my skin.
What I’m saying is he’s probably gonna go off tomorrow.
he was also a 4 star on rivals. like ku can't complain about losing a player or two when they have 4 star players as backups. the real truth is self has lost control of the program.

Nope, still the highest ticket on the market for a KU game. Some tickets can be had for close to $100 today, though.

1. Tremendous amount of Rock Chalkers out and about and clearly not paying any attention to the KU vs Okie Lite game. Given up on the season already?
2. KU side of the family (2 actually attended KU out of 10 plus) openly cheering for Baylor (not gE'ing).
3. Lots of talk about KU recruiting, nary a mention of the Adidas issue. Conversed with an EMAW cousin (senior executive at well known KC based company, lots of Rock Chalkers report to him) and it was decided that nary a mention of the FBI issue would be made out of fear of disrupting a joyous family event and having the KU side of the family leave angry and early. It's our usual tact to only speak of KU in the most glowing of terms or nod approvingly as the KU side of the family prattles on about the glory of KU basketball (not gE'ing)

TCU knows they have to win tonight to get a spot at the NCAA Tournament.
If you're in the DFW area, get tickets to that game. Root your heart for the Frogs...or Horned Frogs, whatever. Stupid mascot. Cheer them on like you've never cheered before. Figure out who's on their roster and start learning their chants. Bring an airgun to the game and start sounding it off when K-State players are at the free-throw line or about to shoot a jumper. Bring in bricks and throw them at Weber every time he acts like he can walk anywhere on the court during the game. Get arrested. We'll start a GoFundMe page to pay your legal

After all the greasy turds we dropped this year, if we had somehow backed into another conference title in spite of all the injuries and suspensions and whatnot, I would have almost felt sorry for the rest of the conference. The fact that we even had a chance was making me wonder whether the conference as a whole is unworthy of our program.
Quote
It’s incredible. Outside of that Iowa State game, no one has gone off on K-State. Yeah, they’re good defensively but there are still open shots out there. Everyone just happens to brick them when playing K-State. Just the way the cookie crumbles this year I guess.

Well, this game is over. This team has 2nd-round loss written all over it. At least most everyone will be back and better next season.
Second round? I like the optimism.

Sounds like Popovich is about to hang it up with the Spurs. Kinda hoping Self gets offered the Spurs job by his old buddy RC Buford and takes it. The magical ride at KU is over. NCAA sanctions are sure to follow this abortion of a season. It’s goimg to get ugly. Probably time to reset.

The fan base doesn’t deserve Self. Any KU fan under 35 basically has never tasted anything other than conference titles and massive tournament success. Honestly the entire fan base needs a stretch of mediocrity like Billy Gillespie at UK to bring them back to baseline.

Those UCLA teams only had to win 2 games to advance to a Final Four and they got to stay near West Coast playing the likes of Long Beach State, Santa Clara U, U of San Francisco (way after their Bill Russell , K.C. Jones teams), Utah State and Pacific U to advance to a Final Four.

Well, Mizzou is still their big rival. It was so huge back in the day that just about every year 10's of thousands of fans would arrive and stay at the football games dressed looking exactly like metal bleachers.
The last football game in the HUGE rivalry was played in front of 30,000 empty seats at Arrowhead Stadium, and would have left 5,000 empty seats had the game been played in Lawrence, and 20,000 empty seats had the game been played in Columbia.

Just wanted a safe space to discuss your favorite the streak. I'll start. 2trai9ht NCAA tournament appearances in pretty great. Not sure what the official current count is on the AFH winning streak is but I assume it's formidable. Thanks and rcjhIt is pretty neat.

“nba size” doesn’t exist anymore, he’s a tall lanky athletic baller. he has a future in the league
We'll see how his workouts go, I guess. I can't find dude in any mocks. The only recently updated scouting report says this:
"There are three concerns NBA teams have with Lawson. One, he is undersized to play the 4 or 5 in today’s NBA. Secondly, he is not a good enough jump shooter to space the floor. Lastly, he will be 22 when the next NBA season begins. A perfect comparison for Lawson is Paul Millsap. In Millsap’s final year at Louisiana Tech, he averaged 19.6 points and 13.3 rebounds per game on a 57.8/62.3/0 split. As you can see, Millsap made it to the NBA without any three point shot at all. Lawson does not have that luxury. Lawson is listed at 6’9” 230, while Millsap was listed at 6’8” 245. For Lawson to catch on with an NBA team, he will not only need to be an average three point shooter, but he will have to competently guard opposing power forwards and be an above average rebounder."
Couple that with what oscar Pearl said:
"Oh, I love Dedric," Pearl told reporters. "He's a pro. He's got an old-school game, scores inside and out. He's got to work a little bit defensively, get a little stronger, move a little bit better, but he's got a great future. I'm happy for him."
It looks right now that getting drafted is far from a sure thing. If he comes back he's going to be the conference POY.

His knocks are size, strength, and age as far as I can tell. Two of those things won't improve with another year. He could improve strength but I'm sure NBA teams would rather have him in their programs to do that. I think he is a pretty safe bet to get drafted and at least some of your mocks haven't updated to include him yet.
Reminds me more of TJ Warren than Millsap.

That deal is loaded with merch for athletes. Adidas gets full retail value credit for merch given to athletes, which really inflates the value of the deal. Maybe Adidas is coming in with a stronger mix of cash, making "cooperation" on the payoff investigation a little easier.That is standard operating procedure for their industry. Under Armour (UCLA), NIKE (tOSU) and again adidas (Washington) all have a similar merchandise valuation included in those contracts.

Remember when Lagerald Vick kicked that woman in the face and then later that year he and Josh Jackson threatened her and destroyed her car? Wild stuff.

Honestly, I have no clue. I'm not sure we played any potentially ineligible players other than SDS, and he's already been punished. So, I dont think vacating wins is on the table. The only thing that will really bother me would be a post-season ban. That would suck. Would be funny if they just give Townsend a lifetime ban and call it a day.:thumbs:

1) Retain Self and face more serious penalties
2) Fire Self and receive less serious penalties
The new AD has some weird clause in his contract about extending his contract if KU gets sanctions so that is a bit of a wildcard.

ku prez: yeah, no crap we know that. So we will put in your contract that you can't get fired when they catch up to Bill.

I have to note that watching my streaming TV service, the commercials that are fed to me are literally 33% KU hoops tickets commercials.
So I do have to give the KU AD's office credit for tossing money out there to try and sell tickets to those in the region (I live in Topeka). However, the marketing is a bit ineffective to aim it at me.

No details on what was in the response

The NCAA's response to Kansas is 92 pages long, per Sports Illustrated's Pat Forde. The response should allow the NCAA to set a date for an infractions committee hearing, and the case could possibly be completed by the beginning of the 2020–21 season.
Post by: EMAWzifried on May 07, 2020, 05:28:49 PM
•The violations alleged to have taken place within the men’s basketball program, the NCAA argued, are “of the kind that significantly undermine and threaten the NCAA collegiate model.” Enforcement staff also took issue with KU not conceding that any Level I violations took place, saying the university was “indifferent” to how the alleged conduct may have adversely affected schools who recruited players in line with NCAA rules.
“The institution’s lack of timely cooperation and failure to acknowledge any responsibility for the alleged Level I violations are in direct contradiction to both the spirit and charge of the Commission and to the expectations of the membership,” the NCAA’s response said.
• (Re: KU's argument Adidas sleazeball T.J. Gassnola was not a school booster) In its response this week, however, the NCAA took to task that argument. NCAA rules, the enforcement staff argued, make it clear that athletic departments are responsible for the actions of their boosters. What’s more, the NCAA said, case precedent has well established that shoe companies that have marketing contracts with a university are a booster of that university.
When KU responded to the Notice of Allegations on March 5, it argued that the concept of an apparel company being a booster and representative of the university’s athletic interest was “novel.”
In its response, NCAA enforcement staff criticized how close KU allowed Gassnola to get to the “storied basketball program” and said KU ignored “red flags” for years which should have indicated that KU’s compliance staff needed to monitor his activities.
The university, the NCAA said, “failed to control and monitor the relationship between Adidas’ representatives with its storied men’s basketball program,” even if Gassnola was acting in his own interests — as KU has argued.
“This failure led to T.J. Gassnola, a convicted criminal and then Adidas outside consultant, having unfiltered access to the men’s basketball program and allowed for Gassnola and Adidas to profoundly influence the institution’s recruitment of elite men’s basketball student-athletes,” the NCAA said.
The NCAA says Self knew in 2012 that Gassnola and his AAU basketball team had been sanctioned by the NCAA. By 2014, a compliance officer with KU learned that the sanction of Gassnola was due to Gassnola’s association as a runner — or someone who helps recruit players — for a professional sports agent.
Yet, the NCAA notes, both Self and assistant coach Kurtis Townsend “regularly consulted” with Gassnola on recruiting elite basketball prospects. Self and Townsend allowed Gassnola access to closed basketball practices and shoot-arounds where he was allowed to interact with student-athletes, the NCAA said, and Gassnola was also allowed into a secure area for families waiting for their student-athletes to come out of arena locker rooms.
• Tait's conclusion: All told, the allegations carry potential punishments that could keep the basketball program from the NCAA tournament for the first time since 1989 and result in a long-term suspension for Self, in addition to scholarship losses and other penalties.

Substantially hurting KU would substantially hurt the NCAA. There are FOUR Blue Bloods in all of college hoops. KU is one of them. We generate more interest alone than the rest of the Big 12 and PAC-12 combined.

Oklahoma state had an assistant coach convicted. KU didn’t.
Quote
It’s insane. They want a blue blood that isn’t duke or Kentucky
Quote
Not all top recruits care about the NCAA tournament. See Beasley, Michael.
Quote
This is the silver lining today. If an assistant coach accepts money and is convicted of a federal crime, and the punishment is the one year ban, how bad can it possibly be when none of the coaches were charged with a crime, and there was sworn testimony that the coaches were intentionally kept out of the loop?
There’s no way our transgressions should be looked at as harshly. If they are, there has to be some outside relief.
Quote
It’s alll a completely laughable chain of events and that doesn’t take into account of our current political climate (sorry to get political) and how the ‘money’ sports are primarily African American and they help fund other non revenue sports that are primarily white.
Quote
It's time for the P5 to pull out.
Quote
KU is doomed on the optics side of things no matter what. If you care about them. The public perception from non KU fans is that KU needs to go down now no matter what. Those people dont know all the details of the case. They just group KU and Ok State and Auburn and all the others into one big group of teams and ignore the evidence in hand and the differences in each case. This includes media folk as well. Garry Parrish is one that comes to mind.That darn Gary Parrish :curse:
Quote
I think most schools would admire KU for finally calling the NCAA out on their BS.
Quote
The difference is Okie St was actually caught doing something wrong and KU was caught texting "We Good" and sitting players when there were concerns on their amateur status.
Quote
The guy speaking on behalf of the ncaa is a dumbass.
Quote
The NCAA is a ******** joke and totally random, what happened to Oklahoma State will have zero bearing on what happens to KU good or bad. Throw a fvcking dart.
Quote
I don’t think the NCAA can afford to hammer KU. Like said, we are one of 4 bluebloods who generate a TON of interest. Most talked about programs in cbb: Duke, UK, KU. With the cancellation of the tourney this year, that cost the NCAA $80 billion. You think going forward they would want sites like Wichita, KC, Omaha to be empty bc KU is banned and can’t play? KU single handedly sells out those arenas for the tourney. Without them there, it’s prob 60% capacity max. Just my opinion.
Quote
Hate to break this to you but the FBI couldn't even find anything on KU. The NCAA won't do *****.
Quote
Im not sure the NCAA will be around in 3 years
Quote
Maybe if some rioters just happened to be walking past the NCAA building....
Quote
I hate to break this to you, but the FBI wasn’t looking for anything on KU. It had to use KU, the academic institution, to make its theory of the crime. In doing so, it essentially treated Self, Townsend, and the entire basketball program as unindicted co-conspirators.
Quote
KU hoops is bigger than any of this in the end. They will weather any storm. Rock Chalk
Quote
I expect our case to go to the courts and hopefully our legal team points out examples where the NCAA has chosen to ignore the shoe companies influence on college BB up until now.
Quote
NCAA is throwing absolutely everything at KU hoping to scare them into admitting something and taking lesser penalties.
Quote
I would love to negotiate with many who post here on this thread. The point of negotiation (and, trust me, this is a negotiation) is to make the other party feel a weakened stance or go as far as intimidate and defeat, if it's prudent. The NCAA is hoping the current accusations and environment scare KU into being "cooperative".
Quote
At least 90% of the Power 5 teams want to see the NCAA get hammered for egregiously using selective enforcement of the rules. The other teams are merely glad it's us and not them that is taking the NCAA to task. That's their joy in seeing this happen to KU.
Quote
Yep, we clearly should have packed up and gone to Under Armour, who was directly named in our indictment, or Nike, who has subsequently admitted to directing payments to players and their families.
Quote
How about this outcome? KU simply refuses to play their game and stalls or ignores any deadlines. What's the blowback from that approach
Quote
I think "we" arent paying recruits but obviously we are in bed with those who are.
Quote
I think if there is a blue-blood-type program that is actually taking care of players directly, it's Duke. It's a private university with a very small, wealthy alumni base that is spread all over the country.
Quote
The problem is - and always has been - that there is too much gray area, but your "bags of cash" argument still boils down to whether Gassnola should be declared a booster. Let's look at this "booster" issue in another way, then. In legal contractual terms. Instead of "booster," substitute "agent." Was Gassnola acting as an agent of KU? That analysis begins with authority and control. Was he acting with authority granted by KU or the coaching staff? No. He was acting in the best interest of his employer, adidas, not KU. Granted, in most situations, those interests align, but is there any question that Gassnola would act in adidas' interest if the interests of the two parties diverged? Absolutely not. If it was in adidas' best interest to steer a top recruit to another school, he'd do it in a heartbeat. Same with control. KU does not control what Gassnola does.
Quote
He's technically a booster of every Adidas school. If you are a booster of every Adidas school are you really a booster of any school?
Quote
Do you honestly think the NCAA wants text and phone records of their good ol' boy network public. With the incestuous nature of their enforcement arm and previous university affiliation or even the compostion of their new committee, there is a zero sum chance that there aren't salacious, damning and possibly illegal texts.

I bet they get a 1 year post season ban, 5 years of probation (the max), and the loss of 2 - 3 scholarships for a year or two. If the NCAA really wants to send a message, they'll make the post season ban multiple years.
Yeah. I had been thinking 2 year ps ban would be required, based on the OSU sanctions. But man, it still feels harsh.

No way the NCAA would do that. They would lose way too much money when a third of the country doesn't care about the tourney because KU isn't in it.

Quote
The IARP, created last year in response to recommendations from the Commission on College Basketball following the FBI's investigation into bribery and corruption in the sport, aims to minimize perceived conflicts of interest in the adjudication of complicated cases. Well, Kansas' case is certainly complicated. The program is facing a lack of institutional control allegation, while Hall of Fame coach Bill Self is facing a responsibility charge stemming from the FBI's investigation into bribery and corruption in the sport.
Rulings from the IARP cannot be appealed, and the investigative body has yet to set a precedent for how lenient or strict it will be with college basketball programs facing infractions cases. Both Memphis and NC State have yet to receive rulings on their respective cases.

I have no idea if this is good or bad for KU but the fact the ruling can't be appealed has to make them slightly nervous.
KU has challenged this thing every step up the way. Who's to say that if the ruling is unfavorable, they won't challenge that as well (even though it's supposed to be "final"). They already had Self threatening to sue the NCAA - what's the difference?

That, and I haven't seen much evidence suggesting that self-imposed penalties result in greater leniency. Also, it's a tacit admission of (some) guilt. Thus far, KU is holding the line that they've done nothing wrong. A self-imposed punishment would be inconsistent with that position.

Yeah dude, everyone laughed at you when you signed with Adidas and now you are finding out why.
Quote
Last season was because of Dev and Doke, not the staff. There’s *zero* excuse for being *this* bad. The Nike Collegiate Athletic Mafia cancelled the tournament under the guise of “corona.” It was a safe cop out for them because they knew it’d be bad for business (Nike) if Kansas (Adidas) dominated in March and April. They didn’t want another Louisville in 2013 situation. Nike programs have a monopoly on the National Championship in both College Basketball and College Football, and it should come as a surprise to nobody.
Alexa, inject.

The next 2-3 years will be our Bataan Death March. This year: MAYBE squeak into tourney. Next Year: probably marginally better on the court but off the court...whoa Nelly. MASSIVE sanctions....definitely no tourney. Self leaves “voluntarily” after next season. 3rd year: new coach and we hold our collective breath as to whether we turn into the next Indiana. Book it
This "life long fan" deserves big12 titles and elite 8's every year!
Quote
Life long fan and somewhat sad my attitude is shifting towards getting entirely new staff , feels like self and staff have been running on fat and lazy for a couple years now . No excuse for the recruiting fails and this years team is miserable .
Delicious salty tears, mmmmmmm
Quote
The writing is on the wall. The recruiting will not improve until the NCAA finally drops the sanctions. Time to cut ties, take our punishment and find a new coach imo. Time to Roy it up
This was followed by suggestions like Brad Stevens and Chris Beard
Quote
If Self gets canned, or leaves, who does KU pick to replace him?
The game has passed ole billy self by
Quote
I have no idea. I like Self and he’s been great, so it’s conflicting. But basketball is becoming more offensively oriented and aside from his inbounds plays, Self is not an offensively oriented coach...I feel like the game has evolved past him a bit in that respect. He’s been overcoming that issue in past years with superior talent but with the ncaa issue and struggling recruiting that comes with it, it feels like that’s not gonna get better soon. I just don’t see any player on the roster and think, that guy’s gonna be a stud next year...we don’t have that type of talent anymore. The other part of me recognizes that it’s stupid to part with such a coach when there aren’t that many hot commodities out there. I just don’t like where the program is going or what the future prospects look like. Again, it’s conflicting. I know I’m overreacting. But ku needs an offensive system that nba level kids wanna play in.
ETA: Self’s teams usually peak in January/February. This team seems to be getting worse. That’s really bad news. It’s late January, and this team still has zero identity
A SIX SEED?!? BUT WE ARE KU!!!
Quote
Absolute best case scenario is winning all the games we should and going 3-3 against Tennessee, Texas, Baylor, West Virginia, Tech, and Oklahoma State. That puts us at 18-8 going into the Big 12 tournament, which we very likely don’t win.
So best case scenario means 9 losses going into the NCAA tournament. That’s probably good for a 5 seed. There’s a good chance we end up as a 6+.

The WVU loss was Kansas' fifth straight road loss, which is the first time they have lost five games in a row on the road since 1982-83....a time when Larry Brown had just taken over and was gathering the talent for his 1984 final four run with a freshman Danny Manning. But now, we don't see the Hawks reloading with talent. They are winning recruiting battles against Creighton and Georgetown, and not against blue bloods and other fashionable programs.I briefly scanned the Phog yesterday. A lot of them are convinced that they are the new Indiana. Crazy what can happen to a program when they aren't allowed to pay players thousands of dollars to attend anymore.

2 of the past 3 years have been Self's worse teams at KU. This isn't ending until the investigation is wrapped up. Even then we have no idea what recruiting will look like.
Quote
I’m just not sure Self is as hungry as he used to be either. Between 2010, 2011, 2016, 2017, and 2020 he should have won another national title. Maybe it’s getting to him.
I still think he’s capable of winning another but I think that’s going to require reworking the staff, bringing in some connected assistants from the AAU scene, and some small changes to our offensive and defensive philosophies.
If the staff continues to remain Norm, Norm, KT, and Snacks then I think it’s a real tell tale sign that Self is content just riding this thing out.
Quote
These are the quotes that really fire me up. He has almost no talent on the roster. That is on him, not the players. He can’t recruit because of NCAA violations. Ok, that is also on him. A really big part of coaching is how well you recruit. I am sure that Nick Sagan is a great X’s and O’s Guy but he works his ass off getting best players. When are a lot of you guys gonna start to question HCBS and effort?
Quote
This is on Self. The game plan preparation, his staff and roster construction. But yet people are going to continue to die on the hill of “well we would have won it last year” shtick or the “it was just their night.” At some point, it’s not a coincidence that VCU, Wichita, Oregon, auburn, USC all go bonkers from 3 in our season ending loss. This is a top 3 worst loss in program history.
Post by: ben ji on March 23, 2021, 09:21:30 AM
Quote
We have been blitzkrieged so many times in the tournament. At a certain point the only one to blame is Self.
Bucknell, Bradley, Northern Iowa, VCU, the last 5 minutes against Michigan, Wichita State, Oregon, Villanova, Auburn, now USC.
It’s possible each of those programs’ most impressive moment in school history came in their respective game mentioned above against KU. Nova won two titles, but that 14 three-point half against KU was probably their most impressive stretch of play under Wright in what was a de facto title game. Shaka Smart is STILL EMPLOYED based solely on that VCU game from a decade ago.
Quote
This fanbase deserves it when we become Indiana...I still think Indiana would be wise to go hard after Self right now. And he might just take it. Then all us will watch the wonderful administration here make an awesome hire like they do in every other sport. Enjoy Mark Turgeon or Tad Boyle, guys KU will hire when Self is gone, neither of whom will ever make it beyond the Sweet 16. And that drop off will be well deserved for this incredibly spoiled fanbase.
Quote
Bill is at a crossroads here. This team has to get better in less than a year. We are trying to find good/great transfers to supplement the recruiting misses, and it just isn't working.
Quote
Thing that was alarming to me, in the postgame self said team was unprepared and out coached. That’s fine Nov-early Jan. But if you’re not prepared in March in the biggest game of the season, that’s a reflection on the coaching staff being lazy and outdated quite frankly. And that is the exact same thing he said in 2019 too, that’s what’s really concerning about this program
Post by: ben ji on March 23, 2021, 09:28:08 AM
Quote
People keep griping about the results but overlooking the cause. Three years under a de facto probation has drained the depth of talent on this team. Self can't overcome that elephant. Remember the "Arizona, NC State, LSU are still recruiting great" talk? UA missed the tourney and Miller is about to be on the street. LSU got bounced by Michigan. NCState didn't make the dance. A good parallel is UNC. Roy's recruiting took a hit for a couple of years during the academic scandal. After it cleared up, 5*s were magically going to UNC again. (oh, and Ol' Roy got his a$$ handed to him this tourney too and where are Nike's favored children, UK and Duke? Home.)
Quote
Admit it—the roster talent from 2004 to 2012ish was materially different than what we’ve had in the time since then. A few hidden gems like Graham and Mason kept us elite, but even before the investigation Self wasn’t killing it. The investigation has made things far worse.
A big ole L O L at Self's "Mediocrity"
Quote
He makes too much money for mediocrity. Let's get this ncaa thing done so he can recruit real players. A bunch of bench players won't cut it. He makes over$ 7 million a year.
Quote
Anyone care to try to defend 3-4 the last seven years in the round of 32? Good guy, horrible tournament coach.
Quote
Self needs to do some self reflecting as a coach, no pun intended. But to win at the level we have in the regular season & come out in tourney games and just lay an absolute turd, he has to change something. Switch up the assistants. We can’t play like Georgetown in the 80’s. The game has passed by Self a little and he’s too stubborn for his own good. Last 5/6 tourney games we got absolutely pantsed, tarred and feathered. I mean cmon usc is good but not 19 points better than us good. Would like to see Self shake up the staff and make playing style.
This is a guards game and quite frankly, if you can’t shoot well from 3, you really stand no chance. I love Self, but the man is wayyyyyyy too stubborn for his own good to sometimes step back and realize he might be the problem in these games

USC defeated No. 3 seed Kansas 85-51 on Monday night to reach the Sweet 16 of the NCAA men’s basketball tournament – handing the Jayhawks the third worst defeat in program history. Prior to Monday’s game, Kansas had suffered just eight 30-point losses in program history, the most recent being a 72-40 loss to Kentucky in 2014.
It's been 7 years since Bill Self lost by 30. Other programs do that multiple times a season, and their fans still fondle their balls.

How many times do we talk about "anything beyond a Final Four is just the cherry," when UK, Duke and UNC's fanbases are out there saying "fuq the Final Four! Natty or Nothin'!" UConn has four natties in the last 20 years. Roy got all three of his in the same amount of time and during the same period Bill's been at KU. K has five natties, the last three in the last 20 years. Jay Wright has two natties in five years. Even if Calipari has one natty, he still has one more Final Four than Self in a shorter period of time. So what's the diff?
At a certain point, you have to stop chalking it up to luck when the same guys are winning it all over and over and over in the same era. They clearly have been doing something Self and KU haven't.
Quote
Jay Wright would have won 3 or 4 titles had he coached at KU for 16 years like Self
He won 2 at Nova and doesn't even land half the talent Self lands at KU
But as long as KU keeps winning conference titles in a conference that hasn't produced a national champion outside of KU since the 1950's a large portion of the fanbase will continue to be satisfied with those results, oh and AFH is rated the best home court advantage in CBB, we got that going for us as well
Quote
I mean, whether it's shooters or big men, Coach Self needs to recruit some ALPHA DOGS! I feel like we've attracted almost nothing but ballerinas since T-Rob, Releford and Withey left. We've had a couple bright spots with Mason and D'tae, but they didn't have a sidekick they could really rely on. I thought after the K-State stool game last year that we had a team with some real fight in them. But, alas, Doke and DeSousa never got to stare down anybody last year in the tourney. And, to be fair, they both were such. long. projects to even get there.
Gimme some cagers, man. Gimme guys that are gonna lean into a big man and get into shoving matches in the tunnel like the Morii did against Richmond. Gimme Taylor/T-Rob again. Gimme Collins/Aldrich. Gimme the Morii. Gimme Withey/Releford. I want some guys who are just plain old "don't wanna meet me in a dark alley" kind of intimidating.

Virginia
North Carolina
Duke
Florida State
Houston
Creighton
Villanova
UConn
I'm not even adding the programs clearly better but have NCAA issues looming, Kansas and Arizona. I'm also not adding schools I think have been consistently better than Indiana in the life of current high school and college students like Louisville, Memphis, Wichita State, USC, Iowa, Wisconsin, Texas, Oklahoma, and Syracuse.
Right now they don't have either the program or the coach. Even if they get Belein I still don't know if I would guarantee they are going to win a championship in a decade, he didn't at Michigan and he's 68 years old now, he isn't going to be coaching in a decade. They better throw all that Cuban money at Porter Mosier and hope he isn't a bust.

College basketball programs can flip in just a couple years with the right hire.

Indiana is never going to win a championship again. They're essentially Nebraska football, but in worse shape.
Does Nebraska have a Marc Cuban?

Likelihood they can get someone better than Self is pretty low, slugging out sanctions doesn't seem like a bad plan aside from the fact that the NCAA can easily blow it up.
NCAA can't do that. Even if they hit him with a show cause that just means someone else can't hire him. Dan Mullen is under a show cause right now that he got hit with while at Florida.
Post by: MakeItRain on April 03, 2021, 12:54:22 PM
Some sort of multiple year post season ban would kind of blow it up. At least I'd assume that would be the outcome, but maybe Self would be okay with that and try and work in a backdoor way to win NITs?
I guess I don't know what "blow it up" means. Even with a multi year post season ban, I think the combination of Self and KU will be back. It will never be what it was, but they won't be Indiana as long as he's there because he's the right coach. I don't think that Townsend "retiring" will do much to stop them from being a contender in most years.

Goff's first big task will be to set the course for a moribund football program already going through spring practice under wide receivers coach Emmett Jones, picked to serve as the interim coach last month.
The downtrodden Jayhawks lost all nine of their games last season. They have not had a winning season since Mark Mangino was on the sideline in 2008, cycling through Turner Gill, Charlie Weis, interim coach Clint Bowen, David Beaty and Miles without finding a way to return to prominence.
Goff is expected to lead the search for the next football coach, though the timeline for that hiring remains unclear.
Along with deep-seated fan apathy, the Jayhawks have some of the worst facilities in the Big 12 -- despite a new indoor practice facility -- and have struggled for years to generate money and support to upgrade Memorial Stadium.
Goff also must deal with potential NCAA sanctions facing the Jayhawks' storied basketball program.
The program was hit with five Level I charges tied to recruiting, one directed at Self, as part of the fallout of an FBI investigation into college basketball corruption. Kansas has staunchly defended itself against the allegations, and the case is going through the NCAA's new independent appeals process, with a decision expected later this year.
"Travis understands the challenges we face and the changing landscape of collegiate athletics," Kansas Chancellor Doug Girod said. "At the same time, he is well-positioned to help us build on our recent successes in student-athlete health care, diversity and inclusion, and student-athlete academic achievement. The fact that he is a Jayhawk is an added bonus."

KU also made Goff agree in his contract that, in the last 15 years, he had not:
• been accused of sexual harassment or sexual assault;
• retaliated against any student, co-worker or supervisor for making a sexual harassment or sexual assault claim;
• engaged in any form of sexual harassment or sexual assault;
• been found guilty of sexual assault of sexual harassment;
• entered into any settlement agreement related to sexual assault or harassment allegations.
Former KU football coach Les Miles mutually parted ways with the school last month after previous allegations of sexual harassment surfaced from his time as LSU’s coach a decade ago.
Another clause in Goff’s contract also states he must consult with the chancellor before giving any athletic department contract that lasts more than one year or has a value of more than $500,000.

I guess we know why KT Turner was available. I know KU's recruitment hasn't been what they've grown used to the past few years, but I still think it's been very good considering the circumstances. This is gonna sting.

If this happens it’s because Self wants him to move on.
Quote
I also don't think he'd be going there to assume the same position unless Self was all for it. I'm sure he'd try to keep him otherwise. So if there's truth to this rumor and he does make the move, imo Self must've been okay with it.
Quote
I think if Self really wanted to keep him, he would have. If it was about money, all he'd have to do is ask the BMDs to help out and I have no doubt they would have. The resources are there for Self and the men's basketball program imo.
Quote
I think Texas just took what it wanted.QuoteNot unless Self was good with it, imo.
Quote
Self GUARANTEED "let" this happen.
Quote
People close to KU aren't shocked by the Jerrance Howard move. Was always likely on his way out and had been eyeing Texas during the season.
Quote
I find 0% likelihood that Self lets Snacks move on if he wanted him on the staff. Money is not an objective. KU would find the money to match or exceed any offer and it wouldn't be that hard. Basketball is the lifeblood and identity of the University. Texas basketball is an interesting diversion after football season and before Spring practice. Their new arena is 40% SMALLER than their existing arena (16.6K vs 10K). That doesn't scream basketball passion. It screams "something to do in the winter".

I doubt Self and KU let him leave to go to Texas if they wanted to keep him.
Quote
Yeah I won’t miss him he was a middle of the road assistant whose recruiting didn’t really live up to the hype. Some new blood on the staff will be welcome.
Quote
Not sure why he'd prefer Texas over Kansas with the coach he played for.
Quote
Lots of ways to interpret this:
1. Just part of Self's planned changes. Knows he has someone better on the way, helped Snacks find a landing place.
2. Snacks knows the hammer is about to drop and wanted out quickly.
3. Texas offered more money and we didn't want to match.
Quote
More #1, some #3 - but if Self wanted to keep him we would have
Quote
his contract was up and KU chose not to renew it.
Quote
I felt like the staff was getting a little stale, even though I didn't anticipate Snacks, sometimes I wonder how good of a coach he was anyways.
Quote
I'm betting he gets a pay raise and doubtful that KU wouldn't match unless Self was fine with him leaving. More to this story I'm sure....
Starts getting a little salty as the news sets in...
Quote
Good news don't let the door hit you on the way out. Need better than him at a program like ours
Quote
Pretty much a downgrade. Blueblood to a place where people don't care about basketball
Quote
I see absolutely no way in which this sucks. In fact, I'll say Self needs to shake up his coaching staff.
Quote
It’s time for some new blood on the staff. Howard was kind of overhyped as this great recruiter and was kind of underwhelming. Didn’t seem like he was a great assistant, as I thought Self took him in the first place because he was a former player under him and wanted continuity.
Quote
Howard was supposed to be instrumental in us landing Chicago area talent and all we got out of that was Markese Jacobs and a suspension of Howard for smoking dope
Quote
I can understand Howard wanting to leave for more money but to go to a rival within the conference is pretty much just a Dick move!
Quote
I guess I was never super impressed with him. He came in and was touted as a top assistant/great recruiter and was pretty underwhelming
Quote
If you've ever been to a KU practice, Snacks was the guy that stood under the basket and threw the balls back to the shooters. Other than that, I never saw him do much of anything. He was the liaison of sorts for the staff.QuoteExactly. That and jumping around on the sidelines. No loss.
Quote
If Self thought Howard leaving would significantly hurt our standing with recruits, I doubt Howard would be leaving.
Quote
Honest question with all we’ve learn with the Nike and Adidas money funnel does an assistant coach being a “good recruiter” mean jack anymore?
Quote
You want a hot take? Here’s your hot take. Snacks is a total Nike sneaker head, and he took this job so he can get better access to swoosh kicks.
Quote
I don’t think beard is going to be any better at texas then he was at TT.

Yes.
Nothing says we're not committed to basketball like an expenditure on a single facility that will cost more money than the entirety of KU's investment in athletics facilities . . . ever.
If my calculations are correct, KU is a distant last in total facilities investment in the Big 12 over the last 15 years. I'm not even going to count Rock Chalk Park becauses KU athletics didn't pay for it, and they're engaged in an embarrassing and :lol: lease arrangement on that cookie cutter gener-o any suburbia USA facility.

How much of Texas's new arena is actually being paid for by the school or AD tho? I thought the city was chipping in a bunch, as it will also be used as a public event venue.
I believe originally a developer/property group/investment group (honestly not sure how to describe it) was paying for it/building it and would get all profits for a certain amount of time, then there would be profit sharing with UT after.
But then, the Moody Foundation donated like half the cost to UT to chip in for the Arena and I believe a new basketball practice facility... so I'm not really sure how any of it works now.
I do know it's everything I would want in a facility at K-State (we probably wouldn't even need the upper deck option to expand seating for events.)

I'm pony up some serious dough for a chance to watch a basketball game in Ahearn again. Bramlage is obviously a superior venue, and I wouldn't want a conference game in there, but I think it would be really neat to have 1 or 2 OOC games a year in Ahearn.

Nope, this is one of those lost in text type translations.
I have never seen a basketball game in Ahearn. I would love to have the opportunity to see a basketball game in Ahearn, should K-State men's basketball play there like they did in the past.

when did volleyball stop using Ahearn? Turning it into an elite VB facility for 3 to 4k fans seems like a great use of a historic building. Playing a couple years of weekend BB noncons there would command premium ticket prices for at least a few seasons even with the current state of oscar's program.
The money it would take to do required upgrades to host anything of substance in Ahearn is enormous from what I've heard.

Edgy people on this blog trash this Ahearn pipe dream but I have it too. Yes Ahearn sucks. Yes it's hot garbage and would be exorbitantly expensive to revamp. But arenas with history are cool too every once in a while for a small handful of non-con games a year, 'specially for those of us townie qat fans who are of the age where we just barely missed seeing a game in legendary 'hearn but grew up with everyone we know telling us how incredible it was. We all want luxury suites and jumbotrons long-term, but eff it...if we're playing Southern Utah, I'd stomach ancient and decrepit facilities to be able to enjoy a little history I missed out on. Especially if we use the old 1960s-era scoreboard where the game clock appeared to be an actual clock. You got a problem with my Ahearn pipe dream? Meet me up on the weird rafter/catwalk/press area (???) thing and we can settle this the way Dick Knostman and Lew Hitch would've.

Give me a pitched roof with steel beams, a few windows to drop some sunlight in on the Saturday afternoon games. Wheel in a couple food trailers to sell popcorn. Give real Willie his own habitat by the club. Figure out how to incorporate those steep steps and little tunnels. Slap a little more limestone up.
They literally raised the roof on Gallagher Iba to add an upper deck. Surely the HIQE on here can draw this up.

I can't remember when, but in the late 90s/early 2000s, K-State hosted NCAAs instead of Nebraska and there were definitely all sorts of firecode violations when the corn people packed the stands (and endlessly bitched about having to come to MHK instead of hosting themselves).

I am the old on here and attended games in Ahearn thru college. If its too costly to revamp,, and we're going to upgrade Bram is there a compromise scenario where we make Bram more Ahearny?
Give me a pitched roof with steel beams, a few windows to drop some sunlight in on the Saturday afternoon games. Wheel in a couple food trailers to sell popcorn. Give real Willie his own habitat by the club. Figure out how to incorporate those steep steps and little tunnels. Slap a little more limestone up.
They literally raised the roof on Gallagher Iba to add an upper deck. Surely the HIQE on here can draw this up.

I know there are other threads for stupid unrealistic facilities dreams, but I have always thought that revaming Ahearn to hold 8K or so would be fun, and make over half of it student seating...completely encircle the floor with first level student section and make a small upper deck almost all luxury seating and club for alumni who cough up cash.
Edgy people on this blog trash this Ahearn pipe dream but I have it too. Yes Ahearn sucks. Yes it's hot garbage and would be exorbitantly expensive to revamp. But arenas with history are cool too every once in a while for a small handful of non-con games a year, 'specially for those of us townie qat fans who are of the age where we just barely missed seeing a game in legendary 'hearn but grew up with everyone we know telling us how incredible it was. We all want luxury suites and jumbotrons long-term, but eff it...if we're playing Southern Utah, I'd stomach ancient and decrepit facilities to be able to enjoy a little history I missed out on. Especially if we use the old 1960s-era scoreboard where the game clock appeared to be an actual clock. You got a problem with my Ahearn pipe dream? Meet me up on the weird rafter/catwalk/press area (???) thing and we can settle this the way Dick Knostman and Lew Hitch would've.
Northwestern renovated their arena, Welsh-Ryan for $110 million. It was built in 1952 with a capacity of 9,500 and now holds 7,039 (Ahearn opened in 1950 with 14,000 and closed in '88 around 12k to give you a size comparison). Bramlage renovations are projected at $85 million and will reduce capacity to introduce more luxury seating and a mid level concourse.
I mention Welsh Ryan because the interior might look familiar:

But, we're stuck with Bramlage, guys. With the SEZ and $85 mill hopefully they can make chicken salad out of that chicken crap.
Post by: MakeItRain on April 14, 2021, 07:24:01 PM
when did volleyball stop using Ahearn? Turning it into an elite VB facility for 3 to 4k fans seems like a great use of a historic building. Playing a couple years of weekend BB noncons there would command premium ticket prices for at least a few seasons even with the current state of oscar's program.
Completely stop with no hope of going back? This season. It was a slow bleed of games to Bramlage before that though. Everything over there is just too cramped and old. There is a chance they might have to go to Ahearn for a match or two next November when basketball starts up, but Ahearn is dunzo as our volleyball home court.
Post by: MakeItRain on April 14, 2021, 07:29:06 PM
In a weird way, it was actually a pretty decent venue for volleyball - just an odd/unique setup. Even with only 1,000 people, it would get decently loud. The lack of A/C did suck for August/September matches (I imagine opposing teams hated that since they weren't used to it).
I can't remember when, but in the late 90s/early 2000s, K-State hosted NCAAs instead of Nebraska and there were definitely all sorts of firecode violations when the corn people packed the stands (and endlessly bitched about having to come to MHK instead of hosting themselves).
We actually hosted more than once. The record there is just over 5000 and that was for a regular season match against nubb. They didn't move the court, scoreboard set up didn't allow that, so there were people all the way to what would be midcourt for basketball. Those were super duper obstructed view seats. We had a couple of more crowds around 4000 and more around 3000 back then. Around the mid 2000's they capped capacity at around 2000 and they hung that giant tarp behind the student section to make sure everyone was contained to the south side of the building.

If we were ever to retrofit Ahearn, which we won't, I imagine we'd maybe have to do that? So many of these old fieldhouses doubled as armories and indoor track places and crap, so their dimensions don't always work great for hoops by today's sightline standards. That's why there were so many horrendous seats in Ahearn behind the baskets back in the day. It was very 90's Kyle Field'y.

Actually I believe Northwestern's renovation did what Butler's Hinkle Fieldhouse renovation did: re-oriented the court 90 degrees from what it used to be.
You would be wrong. Welsh-Ryan Arena was always that way. Pre-renovation pic below as proof:

Building hoops arenas in that orientation was also a thing. Here is Oregon State's Gill Coliseum:

No doubt, but it certainly wasn't the norm. It does exist, though. Alabama's Coleman Coliseum is the same way. Also I've been to a game at McGill and it definitely scratched an itch for a game in an old timey arena. :thumbs:
Western Michigan's Read Arena now has the court oriented perpendicular to the rafters. They also pulled a Butler. Or maybe Butler pulled a Western Michigan? Not sure who did it first.
Here's old Read Arena, which clearly looks exactly like Ahearn as far as proportions, court alignment, permanent upper deck but with temporary bleachers at the bottom. Then when they updated it they flipped the court 90 degrees.

How much of Texas's new arena is actually being paid for by the school or AD tho? I thought the city was chipping in a bunch, as it will also be used as a public event venue.
I believe originally a developer/property group/investment group (honestly not sure how to describe it) was paying for it/building it and would get all profits for a certain amount of time, then there would be profit sharing with UT after.
But then, the Moody Foundation donated like half the cost to UT to chip in for the Arena and I believe a new basketball practice facility... so I'm not really sure how any of it works now.
I do know it's everything I would want in a facility at K-State (we probably wouldn't even need the upper deck option to expand seating for events.)
(https://npr.brightspotcdn.com/dims4/default/4251e72/2147483647/strip/true/crop/1200x675+0+0/resize/880x495!/quality/90/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnpr-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2Flegacy%2Fsites%2Fkut%2Ffiles%2F201911%2FRendering_Approved_04_0.jpg)
The upper deck thing is fascinating to me. Is it actually "expandable" or will they be tarping that sucker?
I just saw an interview, and they said it’ll use “revolutionary technology” to adjust it.
So it better be pretty cool.

If it is, there's no mention of that fact. I don't believe so. And don't get me wrong, it's actually a very fine car (to an older, more circumspect, and responsible individual such as myself). But Kentucky out here givin' away Porsches ...

NCAA penalties usually don't leak, they're not going to tell the school then just leave it hanging out there, especially if a hall of fame coach is getting a one year show cause. Considering that show cause would also lead to his top assistant being fired.Where are we at with the sanctions? My buddy from the gym has been insisting that the NCAA is going to lower the boom any day for two years now but I think their brand is too big for the NCAA to hold accountable, esp after they win the One Shining Moment on Monday night.

"Coaches will not be able to visit recruits in person again until mid-September. Whether Self and/or Townsend will be allowed to resume full recruiting activities by then remains to be seen. As for how much damage control this move will help in Kansas' bid to avoid significant punishment from the IARP, industry sources believe a significant suspension for Self and a potential postseason ban for the Jayhawks are penalties that remain on the table."

The infractions case has dragged on so long that none of the players were even involved in the case.
Yeah, it sucks for the current players that the school chose to do that to them.

Is Self oing to not be on the bench for games, or is he not going to be act practice during this suspension?
Yeah, suspension for games doesn't seem like a big deal if he can be at practice.

Also no one who is worth the annual 6 figures a scholarship is worth isn't going anywhere to take that in lieu of a scholarship. They want their scholarship, stipend, and nil money.
How do you come up with a scholarship at KU or K-State being worth six figures annually?

From the donor annual report that was released just this week.
Full cost of an in state basketball player is $101,154 out of state is $117,674. That's tuition, books, room and board, fees, and perks that only scholarshipped athletes get.

The value of the scholarship looks to be less than $50,000 for an in-state student and less than $66,000 for an out-of-state student.
I'm embarrassed that K-State put that out. That's a list of athletic department costs divided by the number of student athletes, not the benefit to the student athlete. That's hilarious that saying providing a uniform for the game is somehow a benefit for the student athlete. Attributing coaching costs to the student athletes is nuts. Moreover, how can the coaching costs for Marquis Nowell and Emilee Ebert be the same?

For the purpose of the spirit of my actual content a lot of those things need to be counted because walk-ons do not get a lot of those listed benefits. The NCAA regulates those additional benefits like tutoring, the training table, and aspects of the listed administrative support. This is done so schools, who can afford to do so, can have players walk on but provide them tens of thousands of dollars in benefits. That's the Nebraska rule when they would have like 50 walk-ons.
This was never a conversation about how much a scholarship is, we were discussing why a Kansas basketball recruit with offers wouldn't walk on there, or anywhere else. If all those things that come with a scholarship doesn't quite get to 6 figures, then you got me, I guess, but these schools are placing the value at 6 figures. Also worth noting that these dollar figures are almost certainly higher for Kansas basketball.

This is the kind of stuff that athletic directors and athletic departments put out to try and make it seem like a scholarship gives so much value to student athletes. I think they do it to try to justify not paying student athletes outright and to try and convince fans/donors that they are already getting so much that they don't need anything more.

I'm not trying to get you in a gotcha. I included the training table, tutoring, etc. in the value of the scholarship with my numbers.I don’t see the figure as misleading. They’re encouraging people to donate to KSU athletics. It makes sense to include department expenses in that breakdown.

At K-State right now for a non-student athlete for tuition, fees, room, board, books, sports tickets, etc., I would plan on $25,000 for a year if you get in-state tuition. If you are paying out-of-state tuition, it would be $41,000. That is assuming no scholarships.

Tomlin got off the bench, wrapped Dick in a choke hold, picked him up and threw him head first in a waste basket. "Just don't get your skinny white ass in my way to dunking on bitches," Tomlin said calmly.

Maybe Karl and Karla were just saving their disposable income to head down to beautiful memphis tn for the liberty bowl? With interest rates going up i'm sure the affordable "adjustable" rate on Karla's Jeep Wagoneer is a drag on their finances as well.

When I look at their remaining schedule, I just do NOT see many wins. Yikes! It's certainly possible that they lose the their next 5 games, it's POSSIBLE that they could play quite well (for them) and lose all 5! At Baylor is always tough, Kentucky is on a bit of a hot streak (won @Tennessee!), Tang is a wildcard for them, and @ISU has ALWAYS been very tough for KU.

I’m still pretty optimistic about this team. We lose by 1 in OT at KState due to foul trouble and tonight may have won had that one ridiculous stretch not happened.
If we won one of those two games, there would be a lot less panic.

KU got some last year and now they're passed out on them like some milk drunk babies in one of those fancy bassinet things that rocks you around.
If anyone can dig them out of this slump it's Bill, but it just might be the greatest coaching challenge of his career.

When is the last time KU lost 3 conference games in a row?!? Will they fire self and hire beard?
I think on the broadcast they said it happened in ‘21, ‘19, ‘05 and I think that was it since Bill took over

A sampling:
Criminal- Doug Sirmons is a clown.
Of course dougie called that on the floor.
This game was over the second we took the lead and Doug sirmons high dived into the game and threw his incompetence with all of his weight at us. We seriously need to file a complaint against him. He can’t ref our games anymore. I am so sick of his *********.

I counted bill self out and that was a poor decision by meKU is fine. It is the same story every year: "they lost 2 first team all-americans and 3 all-conference picks from last year's squad, this may be Bill Self's toughest coaching assignment yet, he will be rebuilding instead of reloading, blah, blah, blah." And they are always just fine.

I bet Bill had the very expensive transplant surgery, where they go follicle by follicle and it takes an entire day to do like one small bald spot area. The catch is that if you are still losing hair when you get it, then in a few years it might look like a hair spot surrounded by a bald spot, etc. If you are rich (e.g. power 5 basketball coach) you can easily pay to have it done again and again as you age.

It's been the ku formula for years. Be basically 9-0/8-1 at home, be like 5-4/4-5 on the road. Usually enough to win the conference, or at least tie.

Anyway, when pig Aggie successfully inbounded the ball to end the game, Karl has one eye on the big screen (42”) and the other eye on Karla, and let’s just say she apparently did not express the requisite level of disappointment.
On the bright side, Karl is not going to have to explain to Karla that going to Vegas just wasn’t in budget, especially considering the aforementioned tax return debacle.

It's the kids, Karl Jr. and Kendra, who always suffer most when the Jayhawks get booted early in the tournament. They'll be walking on eggshells for weeks in a van attempt not to trigger Karl's wrath. Best to stay in their rooms playing video games with headphones on and remember to leave the red clothes in the closet. Karl Jr would like to follow the rest of the tournament because he secretly likes UCLA but he knows the Dance is now dead to the parentals. Newspapers will lie unread on the lawn until May and all TVs switched off before the 10 p.m. news.

As if the subject matter isn't enough to infuriate KU fans, the very first line of the first episode refers to Lawrence and Allen Field House as being "surrounded by corn and soybean fields." About two minutes later they say that Kansas City is about 40 miles away. It's a good listen

Throughout the four-episode podcast series, Preston made other allegations regarding KU’s relationship with the former Adidas representatives. Self has not disputed having contact with those representatives, though he has maintained in previous interviews that such interactions are commonplace in college athletics and, in context, can be acceptable. “I can say that we all know shoe companies have influence on all levels of basketball. They work hard to develop brand loyalty with top high school prospects, and they have some influence with them, which is totally permissible under NCAA guidelines, just like a high school coach could, an AAU coach, a trusted adviser, and especially a parent,” Self said in 2018. Later, Self added: “You should be able to have relationships and talk to people you want to talk to obviously in the proper way.”

I would think to anyone that doesn’t have a built in hate for KU is going to see that this is a bad look for Preston. Acting like a victim is truly astounding.An amazing lack of Self awareness
Also I don't know if all KU fans are like this or this is just the case of an echo chamber, but in that phog thread they've all convinced themselves that Self didn't do anything wrong because Gassnola testified that Self didn't know about the payments to Preston's mother. Introduce a bag man to a player, let the bag man do his thing. Of course the bag man knows to keep the head coach out of the loop, it's like these people never heard of plausible deniability.

I’m about halfway thru the first ep and I really just hope there’s a spin-off with more about how desolate hick it is. I also liked how the errand they had to run at the big city mall an hour and a half away was to buy nikes.

(Moving this from the Dickinson thread)
After the Hunter Dickinson announcement I heard some pundit speculation as to whether KU are the "villains of college basketball" for the 23-34 season. Not really malicious, just a potential storyline for the season. So I decided to mess around with some AI art and created a "dark" version of our mascot, just for fun. Much to my surprise, it was pretty well received and posters here starting talking about wanting it on tee shirts and hats. I've just started to teach myself Adobe Creative Suite, so this seemed like a goof project to start learning on. I separated the image off the background and threw in some type I thought fit. Yesterday I played around with throwing the graphic onto shirts. All I really need to do is connect them to Shopify and they'd be really to sell. (I picked fitted tees because who likes a baggy shirt?) But there's the question of whether I'm legally allowed to do so.
I don't think you can trademark a red and blue birds as woodpeckers are red and blue. And the image I generated (which I do own and can sell according to the terms of service of the site I subscribe to) looks nothing like the KU logo. But by adding the words "Pay Heed", that's a connection to the university. It's what makes it work. But it is a legally allowable connection? I don't know.
At the end of the day, I’m just having fun. If it’s not legal for me to sell it I’m not going to sell it.

I don't think it went away at all. He's scheduled for a bench trial in June, although there may be a plea deal before then. Obviously a calculated gamble on Self's part.
what’s the gamble, that this is all make believe or that the program can minimize the incident?

That's for the factfinder to sort out, in this case a judge. At the very least, a 17 year-old exercised poor judgment if the texts and images are genuine. At worst, he's a POS and doesn't deserve a second chance at KU. He at least deserves to present his case, as we've only seen his ex girlfriend's recitation of events.

KU lost another one of its 2023 high school recruits - that's two of their top three incoming high school kids who have asked out in the last few weeks. I haven't paid close attention - is this because of KU bringing in so many transfers?

That article is 7 years old, so the guy was probably in the Christian school (assume it's a high school?) when he pulled the shenanigans with the New Zealand woman, then he went to KU.

They still penalize people, look at OSU. They just don't hammer the blue bloods.
Completely different processes and people handed out the punishments for KU and OSU. If OSU had the IARP they wouldn't have gotten the postseason ban either. LSU and NCSU aren't blue bloods and they didn't get bans either. Luckily the IARP is no longer a thing.

So, yeah. Kansas is gonna Kansas.
Code is collateral damage, another disposable Black person whose job was to get Black players by any means necessary. He is living off savings now, unemployable in basketball, and justifiably bitter. He just filed a lawsuit against Adidas, which says he was doing what he was told by his boss at Adidas. Given that the feds argued that Code, Gatto and others defrauded the universities they worked with – only in the alternate universe of NCAA “justice” is Kansas the victim – I don’t believe that Code getting players paid was even a crime against federal or state laws.
“My career has been obliterated, my reputation has been obliterated,” Code told me. “I lost my freedom, I’m a convicted felon. All because I did what I was told to do.”
That’s what makes the University of Kansas continuing to deny the obvious, while awaiting its preseason No. 1 ranking, so morally bankrupt. In a way, the Kansas case was integrity’s last stand. Colleges no longer need to paper-bag cash or funnel money through AAU teams. Thanks to “name, image and likeness” rules, Adidas can pay Kansas star Hunter Dickinson in broad daylight, and Girod doesn’t have to tie himself into a pretzel explaining what happened. Kansas also was the last IARP case – the NCAA is disbanding that particular puppet show. What some of us will remember most from that era are the wiretap transcripts and ruined lives – like Code’s.
“I have the phone call with Kurt where he says he’ll pay for Zion Williamson,” Code said. “Kansas can say they don’t know all day long, but that’s not the truth.”

I'm pretty sure you know exactly what I'm saying. Lamont Evans and Book Richardson went to actual prison, other black assistant coaches have been blackballed from the sport. Meanwhile Bill Self, oscar Pearl, Brad Underwood, Rick Pitino, and Sean Miller are still making millions of dollars and faced little to no repressions for their roles in the system that sent men to prison and ended careers. These coaches should feel a strong sense of obligation to make sure that these former assistants are brought back in the game, but they haven't and it's really infuriating.

By the way, that's nearly $1.5 million more than Nick Saban makes...
Good for them.. I'm sure they'll belly up when Lance gets incredible offer somewhere else? Their coffers are deep!

Between Lightfoot and the bench warmer having a preemptive meltdown, Mike Lee calling people pussies, and Pollard lashing out at their own fans for next to nothing, maybe the Williams Fund needs to hire a social media consultant for their alumni.

With those drumsticks, I thought he was the homeless guy who tries to cage coins on Mass downtown by beating the sidewalk with the drumsticks he always carries. He hangs out with a guitar playing guy with a terrible voice who plays 70 and 80s singer/songwriters endlessly. Drumstick guy just beats the hell out of the concrete with no rhythm or feel. I guess he also brings to mind that old hippy drummer who attended KU football games during Mangino's good years and hooked up briefly with some coed. What is it aboout seedy drummers and KU?

It's the same tournament and I'm pretty sure that they're up there because we started hanging banners back when the NIT was more heralded.
Your point has some merit but we don't hang those but NIT banners because we don't have NCAA tournament success. KU not only hangs Helms banners but they claim them as legitimate championships, weirdly and unnecessarily desperate.

screaming to everyone that will listen that a call was clear and obvious is usually a solid indicator that the call was complete bullshit
Does that also work with a no-call? I'm just thinking about Svi Mahalek (sp?) when he had the gather step, a euro-step, the extra layup step, an adjustment step (in case you are jumping with the wrong leg), a pivot step and the blue-blood courtesy step to make the game winning layup against us that was apparently all legal.

I want him to be able to direct the refs like a skilled maestro but I don't want Tang to turn into a ragey, sweaty, red-faced psychopath like Self. Is it possible to do this by simply channeling the Power of Love?

https://www.heartlandcollegesports.com/2024/01/09/industry-source-to-brett-mcmurphy-kansas-basketball-cheats-more-than-anyone/
I mean literally the only thing the "industry source" does is compare KU's modest sanctions with the modest sanctions of Michigan, both of whom won a national title recently. There's no specifics other than to point out the extremely obvious which is that cheating is easily worth the reward in modern college athletics.

Kind of similar situations situations, as that was also TCU’s first year in the Big 12, I believe. That TCU team would finish Big 12 play at 2-16. KU shared the conference with us at 14-4 in oscar’s first season.

The only thing better than Johnny Furphy is the fact that his dad is named Dick Furphy.
Should have named him Jizzle.

dark-skinned black dude big that I don't remember the name of, but who seems pretty good
I couldn't identify this Furphy kid out of a lineup.
Granted, I've watched roughly 3 minutes of their games altogether, that being the last few minutes of the WVU loss.
To be fair, I couldn't tell you much about KSU basketball the last couple of years under oscar.

I can't imagine they can really keep up with the large fanbase schools
Tradition and reputation are very powerful recruiting tools in the "old world." In the "new world" I suspect that money will be more important. In the NFL, NBA, MLB and pro Soccer (globally) the amount of money you pay a player seems to be the largest determinant of landing high quality players.
So, the question is whether KU (relatively small university) and a collection of alumni from a very, very, very small population state in the middle of the country will have enough money to complete with schools with enrollments, state populations, and donor lists twice their size (or more) in the New World.
After Bill Self moves on, will the next crop of coaches look at Kansas the same way that Bill Self looked at Kansas?

KU sends a lot of their players to the pros......there are smart players that will live with a subpar NIL for the chance to reap NBA riches. Or regular players with good agents.

Then Furphy
the rest of those guys wouldn't play anywhere except mid major and would be role players. Exception is Jackson and he's basically just a really good athlete.
Roster as a whole is bad,
I imagine some of that is Self not being able to recruit the way that they normally would compounded with his heart stuff, so they went out and bought Dickinson which in turn chased off all of their developing post guys.
Not going to attract a guard with McCullar and Harris.

They're not good away from AFH. They are 1-4 on Big 12 roadies and only Iowa St seems like a good team out of those losses. They're soft.
This is honestly more true than not but this year it's exceedingly apparent. They just don't seem very interested playing basketball away from AFH. I truly think they get bounced before the first weekend of the tourny is done. Some mid major with 7 seniors will roll them.
Post by: Sandstone Outcropping on February 06, 2024, 02:06:54 PM
Kansas has 4 guys that could play/start for anyone in the country.Correct me if I'm wrong but it seems like Self has always had the most success with guys who have been in his program 2+ years. His teams that have done the best in March have been led by 3-4 year players. He should stick with that formula.

Yeah, maybe getting older in it all anyways but I think the string of inexplicable/unlikely losses ku has had over the last few years are mounting up, as well we now can/do beat them with regularity. Their conference streak has been effectively killed with no real look like they will ever do that again. The just don't seem like this impossible juggernaut. Also I think this year specifically having Houston in the conference makes them stand out less. Yes ku best them but I bet Houston beats them in Houston by double digits. Zona coming next year will only lessen their grip even more.

With expansion bringing Arizona and Houston, KU's challenge to maintain conference dominance will be more challenging than the initial Big 8 / SWC merger. KU fans have to be feeling a bit on edge - their model of recruiting can now be used by everyone now that NIL is in place. That, and Massa Seff's recent hospitalization on a heart issue, has to be making their fans wonder if that program is in its decline.

Always thought that those are the guys that they're paying to bring in and then they're a mess because Self et al didn't really get to vet them.
Self's best teams have always been built on guys who have been in the program a long time and then they'll cherry pick/pay an instant impact guy.
Exception being their recent title when they brought in the guard from Az St and that one worked out.
But yes, it's getting hard now that everyone can do it and there's plenty of schools that have the same war chest.
Post by: Fedor on February 07, 2024, 02:09:44 PM
There was a meeting with all the KU head coaches, so Leipold, WBB, BSB are all around the table - Self comes in late and immediately points at each in turn and says "I want your rough ridin' money and I want your rough ridin' money..." and "It's all going to the basketball team". I fully believe that Self and ethics are acquainted only through coincidence, but being that much of a dickhead is a stretch.
On second thought, I believe it and he's a total prick.

I did not know that, but that puts it into perspective. Thank you.

With just under 8 to play, KU had a foul advantage of 22-9 and a 2 point lead, picking up a charge call on a Braun flop. Pope goes postal, gets tech, and BYU gets an even called game down the stretch with KU finishing with a final foul advantage of 24-18.
Pope out-Selfed Self.

I'm not sure if I should mention this, but I have it on good authority that 'clams secretly loves Lawrence. After all, it IS the best town in Kansas. Or Kanza, if you will.
I went to play disc golf at Centennial Park - holy cats! Homeless people everywhere. So I scooted over to Riverfront Park to play that course, and what did I find? Even more homeless people than were at Centennial. I heard the homeless problem was even worse over at Johnny's by the bridge. I guess if you go for the seedy vibe, Lawrence is your kind of place.

as the head coach of a KU sport, he’s obviously gotta complain about something and since they got every single whistle during the game, what else is left to go on about? why not attack the opposing coach who had been nothing but complimentary of you in the days leading up to the game, that’s what I always say.
it’s really terrible how the pills he’s obviously addicted to are tarnishing his legacy. let’s just hope he makes it through the rest of the season without another heart attack.

They were a 9 seed that season, and lost to No. 1 seed Duke in the second round.
It was the second in a pair of two “down” years under Roy, but they were young and talented, and the young core of that team would grow into a group that would lead them to back-to-back F4s before Roy left for UNC.
There is none of that with this Self squad. This is the end for them in terms of dominance, at least under Self.
I didn’t think Self was long for KU after the heart problems last year. Plus, like Saban and many others, this new era of open transfers and NIL (essentially pay for play) has created a landscape that if I’m Bill Sellf I don’t have the stomach for.
Will KU rebound and be respectable and a strong national contender at times going forward? Probably, they have as good a pedigree and track record of any program in the country. But this phenomenal 35ish (40 years of you include Larry B) year run under Roy and Self is over.
They’re still in the lead pack, but they’re in the pack now, especially with Houston and Arizona coming in.

Even though it sucks to admit it (because we all want to win as many games as possible), sitting out Kevin and Hunter & losing in our 1st game of the Big 12 Tournament was probably the best thing to happen for us in regards to advancing further in the NCAA Tournament. We have no depth even when we are healthy…and chances are that we weren’t going to win the Big 12 Tourney without our studs, so what’s the point in playing our other guys another 40 minutes if we beat Cincy? Instead we have a minimum of 8 days to rest/heal up for the real deal…and let the best coach in college hoops start game planning.

KU's first round matchup against Samford is a tricky one. Samford presses 24/7/365 apparently.
They're also like 29-5 and won both their regular season title and conference tournament title. I think KU survives but is out in the Round of 32. I'm just surprised we still got a 4 seed.

The scuttlebutt is that both McCullar (knee bruise) and Dickinson (separated shoulder) are expected to be available. I personally don't understand how you can separate a shoulder and play high-level basketball fewer than 2 weeks later.

I just listened to Self's press conference from today, and he says Dickinson has been practicing (no contact) the last few days, and tomorrow he'll go full contact. Makes me think that maybe the severity of the injury was exaggerated.his shoulder popped back in immediately which apparently limited the possible ligament damage

No. 6 South Carolina 65, No. 11 Oregon 60
No. 3 Creighton 79, No. 14 Akron 64
No. 7 Texas 70, No. 10 Colorado State 68
No. 2 Tennessee 83, No. 15 Saint Peter's 57
REGION ANALYSIS: This region has blow-up potential when it comes to double-digit upsets. 12-seed McNeese and 13-seed Samford play fast, they force turnovers and they'll be fearless entering the NCAA tournament -- which could spell trouble for 5-seed Gonzaga and 4-seed Kansas, respectively. Samford's matchup with Kansas is particularly intriguing, given the Bulldogs' "Bucky Ball" style against a Jayhawks team riddled with injuries right now

I will be taking the Hawks to the Final Four in my bracket.I'm not sure what to do with Purdue. Having a team focused around a 7'4" player has not traditionally been a formula for success in the Torn-A-Ment

Yeah, no. Hunter is elite on offense, but he doesn't really play defense.

Tough news on McCullar not playing. Seems like that should probably be the death blow.yeah alternatively, he seems like a giant male genitals so oh well if true.

The hate being spewed by Hawk fans toward this young person on the socials is gut wrenching to watch.Tough news on McCullar not playing. Seems like that should probably be the death blow.yeah alternatively, he seems like a giant male genitals so oh well if true.
How big was the bag of cash he was given for coming to KU?

KU simply can't handle the rigors of the new B12. They've been slipping for a while now and Houston is just light years beyond them at this point.
I think you just saw why Gonzaga hasn't and won't be allowed to join the B12. KU can't handle another team beating their ass on a regular basis.

A lot of his self-worth must be tied up in this Blue Blood thing. It has to be extremely frustrating to see UConn start from scratch and lap KU's historic accomplishments all in his lifetime.
Basically how I feel about Baylor, and it really ticks me off!

Apparently Kugel isn't going to make it due to academic stuff.
Source? We could really use his vaginal wall muscles.

He's all over the place and I wouldn't think Self would tolerate it too long.

Self's recruiting in the portal era has been incredibly lazy. Seems to continue that trend.

Just landed Rylen Griffin, and Dickinson is coming back. Maybe Furphy, too. It's been a pretty good portal season so far. Never bet against Billy Self Jr.

If Self talks Furphy out of a first round draft selection he's not as washed as I thought

We'll see. After all, he's only 2 years removed from winning it all.
