Kansas Crimson

Agreed. I love Self's reasoning for scheduling teams like this though. Every team does a bunch of buy games, but there's at least thought that goes into KU's schedule. They look for teams projected to be those early round tourney games. Not just any directional school that will answer the phone. The...

Do other university departments not hold banquets and parties asking donors for money? When did that stop?

Over. Way over.

It seemed to me like Pettiford was ahead of Yes early in the season, until he got his tummy ache. Then never really got it back before they finally shut him down. I have extremely high expectations for him as an upperclassman.

Not to mention he was hurt almost all of last season. He played in 29 of 37 games last season. Started 26 of them. Dave played all 40 games last year. I suppose that means he was healthy for all of them. If you miss almost a quarter of your team's season due to injury, I think it's safe to assume t...

Have to see more? Good thing he played 76 other games over the last 3 years. Not to mention he was hurt almost all of last season. Nobody is expecting him to come in and average 18 points, but I do expect his offense to improve under Self. Who would you crown as the best player for Kansas next year?...

Tait put it nicely. I don't think it's unbelievable that he could make more as the unquestioned face of Kansas basketball than he would playing in the G League or a two-way deal.

Maybe Dick beats out Yes for the 2 spot.

Dick didnt come to sit.

McCullar
Dick
Wilson
KJ/Clemence

Lot of room between starting and coming to sit. The only 3 I think you can for sure list as starters are Harris, Wilson, and McCullar.

Got to mean he's coming back, right? You don't set an announcement time to disappoint an entire fan base and make only your family and close friends happy, lol.

And Lightfoot.

If Lightfoot is playing in front of Udeh and Zuby, they are going to be in trouble.

I'm not 100% sure about the video, but I am positive with the Luther-esque chanting that you can hear on the broadcasts. I just assumed it was preceeded by some sort of bottle clinking video.

Doesn't Golden State play that video before every game already? With the fans following it was a Luther-esque chant?

Be odd for Boston to do it as well.

I very well could be and want to be wrong on this, but MJ Rice has that feel of freshman-thinks-he's-more-ready-than-he-is-and-transfers-after-being-disappointed-with-minutes player. I kind of get this feeling too. With all the "we're still open to the G League, but the G League doesn't want u...

Leaving bobby and yes out? Seems unlikely.

Has momma Braun convinced Mosley to come to KU yet? Haven't seen any news of him committing somewhere else. I assume he would instantly leap them on the depth chart.

Doncic is also going to need to get into better shape. You guys do realize Doncic had 15pts 2ast 2rebs and 1stl in the 3rd quarter where they cut a 20+pt lead to under 10, right? Including like a 12-0 run that he sparked. Super cool, that has nothing to do with what I said. It doesn't change the fa...

I'm not saying he's in the best shape, or bad shape. I have no idea. But, I do think people can be easily manipulated to think just because a guy plays a slow, methodical type of style that must mean he's in bad shape. He's just not as athletically gifted with a 40+ inch vertical or the fastest guy ...

That's the same dude who has the brilliant idea for Gonzaga to go the "Notre Dame route" and go independent and expect power conference to adjust their scheduling to accomadate them to get bigger names on the schedule during January and February. I treat him like Mike Vernon. Put zero weig...

I'd even add that the Big 12 being involved in 5 of the last 6 Final Fours, while sending 4 different programs, speaks to the parity and strength of the conference as a whole.
