I didn't realize Dar Dar had more eligibility, but apparently he's going to LSU.  Good for him.

Blake Dean is also portaling, which is fine.  He sucks.

Disappointing end to the season, but there are some nice, young pieces to build around.  To make the tournament with pitching as bad as ours is actually quite promising for the future.

If you told me at the beginning of the year we'd make the tournament I would've taken it.  We lost a lot from last year and had lots of question marks heading into this season in terms of production.

Just need to play teams worse than us and we'll be fine.

Pulling for Fred Couples to make the cut.  Justin Rose is dialed.

I'll be at the game in Wichita tonight.  I'm dreaming of hosting a SUPER regional.

Random #2 - at this point in the season, this is - by far - the best that anyone could feel about a Pete Hughes team (normally start slooooooooooow). I didn't see it coming, but if/when the Louisville transfer pitcher becomes available, this could be a pretty salty team WITH a legit corps of 3 starting pitchers (plus some depth)

Is he hurt?

A final one from the phog

Hahaha we are now getting pats on the head from friggin K-State fans. At least when NU fans used to do this they were winning national championships.

The losing streak to ksu is the most embarrassing thing in the history of our university. It is absolutely disgusting and unacceptable on every level.

F this program. F THIS PROGRAM. Good luck to all you diehards. You guys are the best. I'm out on college sports, probably for good. I have no connection to KU other than my undergraduate degree. I just don't care anymore.

If either JD or Grimes are back next year I’m done, 26 years of Kansas football fandom and I’m done.

We may never beat KSU again in any of our lifetimes

Had it again, and just gave it to them. And now KSU fans get to walk out of another game knowing they should have lost but get to gloat.
You're dang right!

OK. I've held it in long enough. Daniels needs to ******** go. Now. He is responsible for every loss we've had this season'. I ******** hate players like him that think they're superstars when they're obviously not. He's just good enough to break everyone's heart, but his bs has everyone convinced he's better than he is.

We were the better team two years in a row. There is no talent difference between our rosters.

Why are our ******** players taking pictures with Avery Johnson?
They recognize greatness.

Find a coach who can beat them. Spend whatever it costs. Enough of this horse *****. Find someone who can put players in the position to succeed and not ******** run the kick off out on the 1.

If you lose 35 out of the 40 in my lifetime (or whatever the ***** it is) it‘s not the players.
  It's because you're a poverty program.

My goodness. We do just enough to lose. Why would Daniel’s try to hurdle when there are three defenders there. Who in the hell fields a kick off at the one yard line. Who in the hell tries to run the ball with 9 guys in the box from your own one yard line. The whole world knows that blitzes are coming and we don’t have a hot read. Who drops an easy touchdown pass. I mean Skinner did not even have to reach for it. I have to come back to Daniel’s. Just slide and run the clock. If you have to punt, they have to drive the length of the field.

The sad part is I'm not even upset anymore. This year has pushed me to the point where I expect us to lose sadly.

4-28 in my time as a fan. 4 Thanksgivings I’ve been to with my family of KSU fans where I didn’t have to hear *****. 4 where we were the big brother in the state.

With respect, the writing is on the wall already. This was our most anticipated season in a generation and his team has found a new way every single week to lose games we should have won. It takes a special skill to pull that off. We literally have had the better team in probably 7/8 games we have played. The fact we are 2-6 speaks absolute volumes about the coaching.
  :D

So, I'm trying to think of everything that went wrong and make a list.

1. Skinner dropping a very easy TD. This on the player.
2. Catching the ball at the one yard line and going out of bounds. This is on both coaching and the player.
3. The missed PI resulting in an interception. Probably shouldn't have been thrown but this one's on the refs.
4. The hold on the JD run that brought a first down back to a 2nd and long. I believe this is what happened. This was on the refs that was a very poor holding call.
5. JD having a wtf I'm going to super hero this and try to jump past 4 defenders and fumble the ball. This is obviously on the player I don't understand how you even make that play there as JD.
6. A potential missed intentional grounding on Rhonda Rousey. This is kind of a grey area and I'm only including it because they called it on JD for a very similar play.
7. I missed adding this earlier but calling a slow developing run play when you're at your 1 yard line was an absolutely terrible call. This one is on the coaches.
8. JD not even attempting a throw on the final 4th down play. This one is on the player.
9. Not going for it on the 4th and 2 and while we're on this play running a wtf was that play on the 3rd and 2 before this is on coaching both.
10. The missed pat this one is on the player.
11. The play calling on the final drive was just abysmal and we as in the phog could have called better plays then what the coaches did. This is on coaching.

So, we have 5 mistakes on players with one of those being coaching as well.

4 on coaching staff

2 on refs

We missed out on 8 points by players
2 by players and coaching
Who knows how many if the coaches called better plays in key situations.
At minimum 3 points from the refs

13 points in a 2 point loss we left on the field.

I'm planning a trip to New Zealand's south island for ten days next April.  Anyone ever been? 

Gonna rent a car.  And go all over.  Plan to stay at a couple of these.  https://canopycamping.co.nz/find-your-escape

I'm open to advice on how to use my points.  I've got around 213,000 points.  Use them on flights?  Hotels for when we're not at canopycamping?

"I keep seeing new posts in this thread and think there is some recruiting updates from the weekend... only to find people posting videos of KSU players and consternation over them MAYBE landing a recruit.

C'mon guys we're better than that - who cares what is happening in Taterville? We got a damned good football team finally and tons of momentum going into this upcoming season. We're recruiting our azzes off and we should be focused on how we're going to roll into Mancrappin this Fall and finally get that purple monkey off our back by beating the crap out of those hayseeds.

For now on let's use this thread for KU recruiting. If you want to talk about KSU players dancing start a different thread."

It's probably called Merlin.

I'm a birder.  That's my weird hobby.  I only count a bird on my life list if I get a picture of it.  There's estimated 10,500 species world wide.  My goal is 1,000.  So far I'm at 468.  But it's so freaking hot here in Bangkok.  I never got outside.  I may never make it.  I do have a New Zealand trip planned for next year that will help.

TCU was better than us by almost every measure (KPI, RPI, beat us 3 games to 1, etc.). But, they didn't have someone on the committee and we did. We're in and they're out.

Thanks Casey Scott!

Yeah this is seriously messed up.  College baseball may have the worst selection process in all of college athletics.

It's amazing how broken the system is.  We are about as average as you can get.  But because we played a ton of road games at really hard places we will likely make the tournament.  We didn't even win any of those games lmao.

Another year on the bubble.  A sweep of BYU probably gets us in.  However BYU is so bad that if we lose the series we are likely out.

OMG Fulham and Rangers!!    :love: :love: :love:

Rangers have gone top.   :cool:

Rangers have overcome a huge gap after hiring Clement.  He's done wonders.  Even on points with Celtic now.  Can't believe it.  Gonna coast to this title.
