Wiggins knows Bill's game.  He has already said in multiple interviews that he is just trying to make the most of his last year at school.  The kid sounds somewhat sad when he says that too.  Sounds like Bill is wearing on him and between Bill's monstering and the general danger that the city of Lawrence presents to a talented youngster, he may be concerned about his ability to actually enjoy it.   :dunno:

Can we get a list of possible barbs/verbal cheap shots/implications/stank eye comments that Self probably hurls towards our guy Andy at various points during practice and in the dressing room in front of the whole team and staff.   Would it surprise any of you to hear that Self stops practice to get on some guys or to teach, it's all quiet and then he'll toss in a (sarcastic voice) "don't do it like Mr. super star over here" (glances at our guy Andy)?

Generally, Bill prefers to run down his possible one and done guys through the media.

'Stone, Andy is a completely different cat.  Sure, they have had some good players at KU whose career Bill has had to Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) but he has never had anyone like the best college recruit of all time Andy. 

I mean, Bill has to really re-eval how he tears ppl down on this one.

Ten points against FHSU? Weak sauce. Wiggins should be able to put up 20 in his sleep if he's truly the next LeBron.

If you truly believe he's the next Lebron James you're a fool and anything you say as criticism is simply noise.

Something beautiful in the circularity of quoting a KSU troll on a KU message board on a KSU blog.

I can't even imagine the vitriol that will be spewed about poor Andy if he doesn't go off for AT LEAST 30-10-10 vs Dook.

He's not playing for you Spracne, he's playing for the 34th state of the United States of America.

Does ku have sports psychologists on staff like K-State does?

For Andy's sake, I hope so.   

We're here for you Andy!

They do.  Understaffed and unappreciated.

They are on staff, Dax.  Their job is to keep him doing what is best for KU, not best for Andy. 

I really hope that his agent has a third party therapist on retainer and that they have already reached out to Andy.

Frankenstein was a rough ridin' phenom and you saw what the locals did to that poor son of a bitch. Now replace locals with KU fans and you've got double the trouble for our guy Andy. :frown:

I hope someone sits down with Andy and tells him about Ad Astra per Aspera.  It's like a warm bowl of chicken soup for the troubled soul.

LOL. Pretty sure he's playing to live up to the expectations I personally have built for him.  Nice try, tho

Guys, I just heard some info from a very locked in KU source.  Apparently, there is an effort issue with Andy.  Apparently he doesn't go 100% all the time and is prone to half assing when up against an opponent he finds unworthy.  Bill may have his hands full with this kid after all. Two sides to a story....
