Great route tree on that 3rd and 9. Oakley just couldn’t get turned around. That would have been beautiful.

Sure seems a tad extreme for losing on the road on a 61 yard FG, for sure. My hope is that it’s not related to the injury. But that was my first thought also.

My concern is google lens and AI's ability to do the "yes, cancer"/"Not Cancer" thing. Supposedly that is really accurate now.
Absolute truth. Might even be in your lifetime. Not mine. The radiologist will be a very limited role from what we see now as AI takes root. The ability to read entire complex studies in seconds, never tire, and not have to pay them will result in entire health systems changing.

The patient shown above has a little Walter White (on leprosy) going there.
Several years ago (2017) I attended a conference and one of the lectures discussed the possibility of Hanson’s disease becoming endemic due to the increasing number of homeless. It’s difficult to reach them medically as they only show up when there’s an issue. (Not too unlike the rest of us). And even then, whatever medical issue they present with is in an advanced stage in a high % of cases.
It’s sad AF and I see these folks almost daily in my job.

Kansas State Basketball is hard / Re: Glass ceiling
« on: March 27, 2023, 11:31:51 AM »Seem to recall the KU pg who couldn't make FTs was Aubry Nash. Also the fast K-State pg on the 80 team was either Fred or Glen Marshall, we had pgs with both names during that era. The rumor was he got fed up sitting on the bench and watch Stankovich play and left for his home in St. Louis the night Stank got injured. Hartman got in his car and chased down the bus to bring hiim back to Manhattan.
Not certain if it was Nash, but I recall the incident pretty well. However, I’m pretty sure the game you’re thinking of was in 74. KU was really good. FF team I think. Hartman was asked about the FT situation after the game and gave a terse “no comment”. That was that. It could have been a short TV interview from Ron Paradis on Channel 13. Time is tough on the memory.
Was able to attend the 1975 game in Lawrence and they absolutely beat the brakes off the cats that game. Early on, KU was hot, and after a missed KU jumper, Chuckie Williams went high to rebound it one handed. Took his eye off the ball and, with nobody around, it slipped out of bounds. Crowd went crazy. They responded by going on a 20-0 run ( or pretty close to that). Lost 91-53.
I’m going to have to dig out old newspapers now. I might still have those. My mom was sort of an archivist. Kennedy assassination, moon landing, Pearl Harbor, SB IV… Good ol’ mom….She kept ‘em all.

We were Big 8 runner up to KU in 75. Lost a late year game in Lawrence for the title when Mike Evans got his nose broken. He played the tournament with an ancient padded mask Hartman got from Iba when playing football at Okie State. It might also have had It been the game Owens feigned an injury to his piss-poor shooting point guard so he didn't have to take critical FTs. We made the field because it was the first year they expanded the tournament but not yet to 64 (I think it was 48).
And don't forget the 80 2-point OT loss to eventual NC Louisville. IMO that was the best K-State of the post Winter era. Would have been seeded much higher if not for a rash of injuries that came after we'd already beat KU, MU and OU on the road. One of the injuries to Stankovich was actually a good thing because it force Hartman to play a point guard whose name I can't recall right now. 5-10 and faster the eff. Nealy would get a rebound and it was an instant fastbreak with him racing down the middle of the courty and Blackman and Tyrone Adams filling the lane.
Oh I completely forgot about Evans getting a broken nose. That mask! And he never skipped a beat. He and Chuckie were the “missile twins”.
I think that guard was Glenn Marshall. And that was a helluva 1980 team.

I too, have been around for all 8.
1971/1972- great team. Big 8 title winner. Beat Texas to make the EE. Lose 72-65 to Louisville in Ames.
1972/73 - Big 8 champs. Win S16 vs SW Louisiana. They had Bo Lamar. Averaged 29ppg. Guy was ****ing great. Cats eke out a 66-63 win. Then get Memphis (State). Gene Bartow was their coach. He would replace Wooden @ UCLA later in the decade. Larry Finch and (ABA/NBA) star Larry Kenon. Memphis played in the title game vs Walton and UCLA. They were unstoppable vs KSU. 92-72. 25-4. Season over. First time I was heartbroken.
1975 - Big 8 champs. Defeat Penn in the 32. Beat Boston College in the S16 to face off against Syracuse in the EE. Game tied and one of the greatest Big 8 players ever, Chuckie Williams comes down the court and drains a 28/29 footer to give the Cats the lead with 5 seconds to play. I mean it was one of those “NO, NO, NO DON’T SHOOT THAT …. **** YES I KNEW HE’D HIT THAT SHOT !!!! Syracuse inbounds, drives to the lane and hits a 12 footer that bounced 176 times on the rim then fell in to tie it. At. The. ****ing. Buzzer. Lose in OT. **** you, upstate NY.
I can't even discuss the Jerry Eaves, Louisville rim clanger.
1977- CATS vs Marquette. In OKC. Coached by Al McGuire. They had Butch Lee and Bo Ellis. They wore uniforms designed by Bo Ellis that were made to not be tucked in. Actually pretty cool stuff. Cats down three with 00:17 to play. Mike Evans puts up a jumper, misses, but Darrell Winston goes high above everybody and grabs it, lays it in and is fouled! ****yea!!!! Chance to tie with just seconds to play.
But wait - Rule 26(a) was instituted and the basket nullified but two FT’s awarded.
The original rule stated that a basket did not count if the ball was tipped in. A shot had to be ruled a "controlled shot" or a "controlled tip" to count. Usually, that meant that a rebounder had to have two-handed control of the ball. Winston controlled the ball, laid it in and was fouled. So, instead of a possible tie and OT. It was two FT’s. He made them both and Marquette held on for a 67-66 win. Marquette advanced to the FF and won it all. **** you Marquette.
Also, the rule was rescinded 12 days after the 77 title game. **** YOU NCAA.
1981- CATS beat USF then beat #1 seed Oregon State on the famous SI Cover photo of Rolando Blackmon high, high, HIGH in the air draining a baseline jumper with 2 seconds to play. (Jay Randolph on the call for NBC). Knock off Illinois in the S16 and get wasted by UNC in the EE. (Al Wood, Sam Perkins, James Worthy)
My dislike of UNC grew a lot that decade. Although I really enjoyed then when I got to watch Walter Davis. Damn, he was great.
88 - was in The Silverdome to witness it so nuff said.
2010 - beat N Texas, BYU. S16 the incredible 2OT game vs Xavier in SLS. Then Butler. They were just was so damn tough. Had the lead late. But couldn’t hold it.
2018 - beat Kentucky in the S16 (I mean .. No biggie we whoop dat ass on the regular
) And on to Loyola Chicago. And I swear this to you. Had my couch all ready. Texted friends. Life appears great. Was making a sandwich at tip-off. By the time I sat down it was 20-4 Loyola. Game was ****ing over in the first 6 minutes.
This year though, I really enjoyed the journey even though the result was rough. Let's do it again next season.
