I don’t really know you but also I am distantly proud. Kudos.

That starting 5 the year they lost to Maryland in the Final Four was: Aaron Miles Jeff Boschee Kirk Hinrich Drew Gooden Nick Collison Bench: Wayne Simien Keith Langford Michael Lee Insane roster. I remember KU going up like 15-2 and thinking we are gonna win this thing bc the other half of the brac...

He and Nick wanted to win a title.
They almost did.
( and probably would have if Simien hadn't busted his shoulder )

"I fail to see what good is done by shuffling athletes through majors that have nothing at all to do with their interests or goals." I've always agreed with you here though there are plenty of courses that already exist at a majority of schools that could be packaged into a major ( and som...

50.5%.
He hit 55 3's.

Kirk is correct.
2001.
Lost to Self's Illinois team.

Rush did just make 50 his freshman year.
But someone bested that.

Who has the highest 3P% in KU history for a season where they made more than 50 3's?
Bonus if you can name the year.

You guys remember Slimer?
What a crazy guy ( ghost ).

Lagerald Vick had a helluva 3 week span.
28-43. 65%.
24.6 PPG.

If you mean shooting to be simply standing unguarded from your spot and shoot, then yea, probably Brannen.

Rush shot better from 3 than Brannen did in their careers and Rush made well over 2 times as many.
He was a better in game shooter.

Rush never had a season where he shot under 42% from 3.
Svi eventually became that sniper his senior season but he struggled for a bit.

"I would guess."
"Ok sure so maybe not most - the percentage doesn't matter - i'm just throwing stuff on the wall that supports the ol iT wAS AlREady HaPPenING! premise."

Do you think it's possible that someone who is getting paid 500k a season might not be at all interested in academic requirements? I would guess that most of our rotation players over the last 40 years were pretty uninterested. This of course is absolute hearsay. My parents both worked for KU and h...

I think Rush, Chalmers and McLemore were all better shooters than Brannen.
