Re: Udoka

Self saying he would like to see Udoka get less offensive fouls. He doesn’t foul out defensively. My take... Udoka is lucky at this point to not be called for more. While I like the fight and mean streak, he has literally been two hand shoving guys in the paint to get position. Even running down the...

Re: Why Didn't (fill in the blank) Play More Last Game?!?

Self blurb during his weekly presser right now. He’s also trashing the team about being a shitty practice team.

November 29th, 1986. More than 400 people wait in line at Johnny’s Tavern at 7:30 am for the last time as it changed from a beer bar to a private club due to changes in liquor laws.

Re: Devon

On Hawk Talk, Self says Dotson is the top of players he’s had with speed and explosiveness. Wait, maybe not Tyshawn. That’s doubtful. But Tyshawn, Dotson, and certainly Frank. Class by themselves. Best he’s been around.

Re: Pooka

Fair enough. As several have mentioned, it would seem odd to sit out now after you consider what has opened up here at Kansas, but if it had been another year of Beatty and probably 3-4 wins next year I could see the desire to transfer then. Getting Miles was crucial in preventing a Louisiana exodu...

Re: 13 straight

When he talks about his first day on the job here, Self mentions being wowed by driving along Naismith Drive. I think he might really appreciate having a street named after him. On this day in 1939, James Naismith passed away from cerebral hemorrhage at the age of 78. Buried in Memorial Park Cemeta...

Yeah, doesn’t seem like anyone even asking Silvio questions as of late. Self spoke of Garrett last night on Hawk Talk. I don’t recall any topic of Silvio since early November.

Garrett has been held out of practice, but is now probable for Saturday. Must have been a serious whacking.

Re: ACA meltdown thread

No, it was a direct change of a Obamacare. As were literally 100s of thousands of others documented factually. I don’t understand why you would choose to negate my personal story and my sisters misfortune. I don’t appreciate it at all. So goes the politics board and the jerks here like you.

I don’t get bent out of shape with Presidents or politics. No one in office has ever directly impacted my life one way or another. Until OC/ACA.

Re: AP Polls Nov 26th

Probably better than the Zags argument. But neither Gonzaga or Duke was in the good argument category.

What I’m reading is...
Head to head doesn’t matter, because Duke would be favored if they played again AFTER losing.

NET Top 353

This probably needs its own ranking thread. Since ultimately it’s the only one that matters. It also provides the most laughs and cursings.
