Get out now Josh!!...Also, Josh Selby Fan Thread and love and not hate

[Dugout DickStone]

This is the kind of circle jerk you have to just sit back and admire. 



    

So, why didn't you then?

[jtksu]

Odd that you enjoy watching circle jerks so much.  Even odder that you have apparently seen so many that you actual have classifications for different ones.

What I’m saying is, if it is true that a tree falling in the woods only makes a sound if someone hears it, Josh Selby on Thursday probably became the most hated-on college basketball player of all time.

Probably that title previously belonged to J.J. Redick, but even as recently as Redick was at Duke, the public’s ability to communicate directly with him was miniscule compared to that ability with Selby.

It's like Tully wants to take a stand against haters but still be able to throw Josh under the bus.

Well that just seems like silliness for me to laugh at.

[mcmwcat]

i also didn't know Redick held the previous claim to most hated-on player in the history college basketball

He has to mean just hated by KU fans.  I mean, I don't know that anyone outside of hickville, ks even knows who Josh Selby is.

i enjoy the "i'm not mad at the kid, but I think he's making a historical mistake the likes of which college basketball has never seen and he's a complete idiot for doing so, but again I'm not mad at him and wish him luck even though I think he's going to fail miserably because he's overrated - yet needs more time in college to cure his overrated-ness" posts/columns/talking point.  

meanwhile, bill walker is playing in the nba playoffs.

Just the kind of circle jerk I can sit and stare at for hours, and hours. 

Can we get a staring at circle jerk emotico?

Josh Selby’s decision to enter the 2011 NBA Draft may have helped the Jayhawks in the Trevor Lacey recruiting sweepstakes.

Lacey, a high-scoring, deadly shooting 6-foot-3, 200-pound combo guard from Huntsville (Ala.) Butler High, has a final list of KU, Alabama, Auburn, Kentucky, UConn and North Carolina State, which is now led by former Alabama coach Mark Gottfried.

“The (KU) roster now has a gaping void at the shooting guard position and Lacey would fill that need nicely,” Rivals.com recruiting analyst Jerry Meyer wrote. “He has a superb basketball IQ, is physically ready and is an outstanding long-distance shooting threat off the catch.

“There is no doubt that instant playing time is a major factor in Lacey's decision, but Kansas faces heavy competition for Lacey. Alabama — Lacey’s ‘backyard’ school — is in need of shooters and has available playing time. Kentucky has developed a strong relationship with Lacey, and if Brandon Knight leaves school, Lacey could very well end up in Lexington,” Meyer added.

The No. 34-rated Lacey averaged 31.4 points a game last season.

Good job, Bill.

Selby's failure to finish the spring semester should theoretically hurt the program's Academic Progress Rating, but Self was quoted as saying at the time of Selby's announcement that he "worked with his professors to complete his work for the second semester."

If that's true -- that a borderline student out of high school was able to finish his semester's work weeks ahead of time without attending class -- then every degree the school has ever granted has been cheapened. But that's just part of what makes the Selby story a sorry one.

That's the higher education that Beems was talking about.

You think they'll print him off a diploma to include his NBA earnings in their average?

It's no wonder they're so damn poor over there. I just hope the rest of America doesn't associate the University of Kansas State with that cess pool of elbow throwing, mistreating women, diploma milling nightmare engineered by a man with out a conscience, Massa Bill Self.

You have to feel for their young grads stepping out into the work force for the first time with a diploma that isn't worth the paper it's printed on.

Please keep this in mind the next time you see a KU Law grad begging for change on the street and toss him a few bills.

I would think there was enough business in Lawrence just defending the basketball team and athletic department employees to find a job...

Well now that Lew is gone, there is no money in that anymore. Ask any KU fan...now everyone's out to get 'em. Poor athletes can't even fight door guys anymore let alone rape and beat women...

Sure won't find them prosecuting them.  A common bragging point among ku law grads is that Fatty Collin's weiner-rubbing case got dismissed with prejudice.

[Paul Moscow]

From lottery pick before KU, to this.

"Overall, he's converting just 39% of his 2-point attempts, which would be the lowest percentage of any player drafted in the last ten years, if he indeed decided to enter. Combine that with his paltry 37 free throw attempts in 22 games, and it's no surprise why Selby ranks as the least efficient scorer amongst players in our top-100 prospects ranking."
