Butthurtville isnt handling this very well.

I know right? when they win they say titletown, when they lose they want their coach fired and say "it's our hobby sport" lol.

We've always said its our hobby sport.  It's just about everyone's hobby sport outside of some one dimensional loser schools.

...or go ahead and 1-star away, but Ben is not an NBA-caliber player right now.  If he thinks the lights were bright this weekend, what the hell does he expect when he gets paid to go 0-9 from the field?

Never in a million years would I have thought benching him in favour of Naadir Tharpe would be a genius move, but it's impossible to argue it today.

I love Ben's game when it's on.  But he needs more seasoning.

Quote
I have felt that for weeks. I have not mentioned it on this board for the simple reason that I did not want the fight that would have ensued. He is not mentally ready for the next level.

Quote
All the fans I was around were getting really grumpy saying he isn't ready. Definitely needs to stay another year. He can't do anything away from AFH. He needs another year so he isn't another flameout.

Quote
Ben needs to come back. I know he could get drafted on potential, but in order for him to be the best pro he could be, he needs at least one more year of development.

So begins the annual "Player X is not NBA ready because I really want him to play for KU another season."

KU has multiple Big 12 titles this year in multiple sports.  Swept K-State in everything but our hobby sport.
