I'd support this more if he were hurt. Being sick isn't the same. If he's feeling better, play him. If he's hugging a toilet 2 minutes before warm-ups, sit him.

Have to wonder about the next two games, anyway.

Gonzaga had 2 guys test positive.

St. Joseph's program is on pause.

Richmond, who just played UK, program on pause.

I don't think that's right.
At least the previous worst.
I remember a game against Michigan State in a Champ Classic where we won but missed everything we threw up.
We have only beat Michigan State once in the Championship Classic and we scored 92 that game..

Worst shooting percentage by Kansas in a win since selfs arrival i think. The graphic showed 2nd worst being 34% against Purdue 2012

It was against Michigan State early in the season.
We shot worse than 38 percent.

Ah, that makes more sense.

Yeesh, I was at that Purdue game here in Omaha in 2012. That was a frustrating one for sure.

I think everyone was thinking "don't do it!" in that game (Purdue)...and then the alley-oop at the end of the game sealed it...wish we had guys like that now!

Maybe Harris can throw an alley oop lob because no one else seems to be able to.

You thought you could hear a lot on the broadcast? You all should listen to the Above The Rim broadcast on ESPN. You hear everything. Especially on CB's T.

CB backdoor and dunks over player.
CB "Yeah BITCH!"
T is called by Doug Sirmons.
Self "God ALMIGHTY DOUG! That's so weak. SO WEAK!"
You hear Norm Roberts or KT, one of the two tell all the guys to huddle up while Self is ripping into Sirmons.

I was dying laughing.

Hopefully going forward crowd noise is pumped in. Cause that was brutal last night.

So damn weak. That is Sunday school compared to what's being said in football games at the same level.

A white kid that grew up in Burlington, KS dunked on a 5* giant. How is jawing not allowed on that?

Because the refs now hear everything. And the game is worse for it.

Just like Self got T'd up by Sirmons again for saying "You've gotta be kidding me" according to Scott Chasen even though there may have been an extra word in there.

I, too, watched the Above the Rim broadcast. I liked one of the refs, before a free throw, say, ‘after a whistle, I don’t want to hear any of you crying like babies.’ 🤣🤣

Still crazy that KU outrebounded Kentucky by 4. By 6 on offensive rebounds. Hustle and effort goes a long way to rebounds. Just think how many more KU would have gotten if McCormack grabbed the 17 he hit out of bounds.
