Title: Bill Self
Post by: _33 on February 17, 2010, 11:14:46 PM
Time to move on from the neb game. We have more important things to worry about.  Like Bill Self postponing and subsequently ruining the NBA careers of his top recruits.

Shocking expose' here:

Deron Williams was an all-star this year.  Rush is getting a lot of playing time, and Chalmers was starting at point guard for the Miami Heat right after he left Kansas.  Arthur is injured, Wright still hasn't developed a jumpshot, and Darnell is a backup big man for the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Yes, because it's so hard to win with all of those McD AA's at the collegiate level . . . particularly when all the guys they came into college basketball with have already moved on.    :rolleyes:

On that note, it becomes quite apparent that it's really all about Bill.






UNC has SEVEN McDonald's All-Americans and is sitting at 14-12 right now after losing 8 of 10.  It's not easy.  The most Self has had at KU is three.  Hell, Oklahoma has three McDonald's All-Americans this year, and they're near the bottom of the Big 12.

That really wasn't the point Ben.

Roy Williams has been a head coach for 21 years now . . . I think we can allow him to have one bad season coming off a national championship. 

If it becomes a trend, then you might have a point.   










Bullsh*t.  If anything, Roy Williams' success at the collegiate level just strengthens my point.

Roy likes kids and making sure they succeed in life.  Bill, not so much.  Roy cares about others and is selfless relatively speaking.  there are things more important to Roy than winning.  Bill will sacrifice the future of young men everywhere to get what he wants.

Bill Self ensures that top players set aside their dreams to fullfill Bill Self's dreams, and stuff his wallet (albeit the kids get some decent money as well, but nothing like what Bill gets)  . . . only seeing their NBA draft stock plummet the longer they stay at ku.    This has shown to be the case on numerous occassions.






Bullsh*t.  Ellington, Lawson, Hansbrough, Green, etc, all came back to UNC to win a national championship last year.  Noah, Horford, Brewer, and Green all came back to win a championship at Florida in '07.  You K-State powertards just don't understand the significance of winning a national title.

Pretty much what Chuck said.    Most of the guys on the other team either stayed status quo or improved their NBA stock.    While I don't pay that much attention to the NBA were any of the guys from Florida or UNC sitting in the green room all embarrassed at the NBA draft??





Like I pointed out, Arthur's stock went down because of questions regarding his health.  If anything, that's the fault of his agent for not getting on the phone and setting the record straight for the NBA scouts.  With Collins, he'll be drafted higher in the 2010 NBA Draft than he would have been last year.  Last year's draft was stacked with point guards.... guys like Lawson, Rubio, Jennings, Curry, Flynn, Evans, Teague, etc.  

As for UNC and Florida's prospects, I'd have to go back and do some research, but I did notice that Wayne Ellington wasn't selected until 28th in last year's draft.  He was projected lottery coming out of high school.

You wish Arthur would have left a year earlier so that KU wouldn't have won the '08 national title.  That's what this is all about.  Should Ed Davis have left UNC after last year?

From now on, K-State fans will be known as the Sour Grapes.  

K-State did much better than KU this season, what do we have to be sour about?  :dunno:

The only team that won anything in the NCAA tournament was Duke.  Final Fours are always fun, though.

Just killing each powerespect talking point, one by one. 
no. you're fracking stupid. nobody on florida's team was as highly touted as ku's players who stuck around. Noah, Horford and Brewer were all 4 stars. Green was a 3 star. Ku had; Chalmers 5 star and 12th best player overall, Brandon Rush 5 star and 13th best overall, Duh-rel 5 star 16th overall. Lets go ahead and throw the fat kid in there too. Sharon 5 star, 21 overall. Nobody on Florida's team had the projected NBA talent that KU had, so your argument sucks.



You've gotta be kidding me.  When Florida won the title in '06, Horford, Noah, and Brewer were all considered lottery picks. 
They became lottery picks over time......... coming out of high school those ku recruits were legit lottery type players, and like usual, self ruined the dreams of those McDonalds all Americans

One thing that has been used against us from other schools (in recruiting) is: ‘Self’s never had a one-and-done. Why would you want to go there? They’ll hold you back there,’ that kind of stuff, which is ridiculous talk,” Self said. “You guys (media) know me well enough to know, if a guy can help us win games, I could care less (if he’s one and done). I do think there will be one thing people can’t use against us because of that. I don’t know if that will help or not. If a kid bases his decision on whether or not a young man leaves after one year, that’s ridiculous.

LMAO, it's like opposing coaches get their anti-ku talking points from goEMAW.com.  Would really be a fantastic thread to throw out negative recruiting talking points for every program but KSU for our coaches.

It's the floating bobble head of ku logic.

If ku does well in the NCAA but doesn't win the Big 12, the NCAA tourney is way more important.

If ku wins the Big 12, but chokes in the NCAA tourney, than winning the Big 12 is huge, and nobody did anything in the NCAA tourney besides the National Champion.

Stay tuned . . . it can change again at any second.

This logic doesn't just apply to KU fans.  It's pretty much that way with all fanbases who support successful programs.  Look no further than Oklahoma football.

The list keeps getting larger, folks. Very disturbing.

Quote
HOUSTON — Former Kansas University forward Marcus Morris is being sent to the NBA Developmental League for some seasoning, the Houston Chronicle reported Monday night. First-round draft pick Morris is headed to the Rio Grande Valley Vipers in Hidalgo, Texas.

“Fortunately, we’re a team it’s very hard to come in as a rookie and play,” Rockets general manager Daryl Morey told the Houston Chronicle. “We like all our young players to go through a process before they get on the floor. Marcus is someone with very high level of talent and someone we feel will benefit greatly from playing and working on his game. Our focus for Marcus is to work on his defense and offense at the three.”

Morris had been working a lot at power forward with Patrick Patterson injured. The Rockets, who are in the midst of a busy schedule, do not have a practice scheduled until next week.

You get these kids away from the amazing coaching that is Danny Manning and they are lost. Manning is holding little bro together right now.  I mean, can you imagine this year w/o him? 

As far as Bill goes, pretty obvs that his motto is:
Coaching for now, not for life.
