5 seconds, 10 seconds, and free throws are all mental issues, imo

those are the mistakes you might expect from a young squad, but the leaders on this team and the ones that made those mistakes, are seasoned champions

perhaps Self’s absence affected things more than realized?

Played worse in both of his major action in NCAA tournament play.

You're saying last year? Like when he sparked the second half comeback?

I'm seeing major revisionist history on the championship last year. Juan was the one in during the comeback. Remy came in and scored but basically nobody else did and we gave up more points and played even the rest of the way.

That's true. But he definitely had some brain farts during the tournament the last 2 years. Running out of bounds last year, 10 second this year, some ugly forced shots in that 2nd half on Saturday. He'll definitely be up and down, but Bill Self teams need elite PG play in March and he's been average at best in the last 2 March's.

Correct. The shot clock is easily visible if he would have bothered to look at it.

Better than Scott Drew or Porter Moser!

Norm never got meat necklaced at KU in a tournament game as head coach.

Lighten up. It was a joke.

I bet Norm would have lost by 21 too.

Great joke to pull this out from a season ago to try and prove some point you think was anything at all close to a point but just was so very you.

Hilarious.
