Let's try 1.5 days of good vibes before our game tomorrow.

We have a good shot of advancing if our guys play to their average. If they play well we are definitely a team that can win four more.

More on Kansas:

"Early on, they didn't have that spark off the bench," one Big 12 assistant said. "If he's playing well, now they have a change of pace. He can come and score more than Dajuan [Harris Jr.] He doesn't give you the same defensive prowess, but his scoring on the perimeter makes them better. Those two wings are as good as anyone in the country in [Ochai] Agbaji and [Christian] Braun. Those two don't shot-hunt either, they pick their spots. Now if you have Remy playing well, as a threat on the perimeter, [David] McCormack as a load in the post to guard one-on-one, now it gives them a chance to win a national title."

Just imagine how good we’d be if CB and Och would “shot-hunt”

Let's be honest.
This team would loose to 1/3 of Bill Self's teams here at Kansas in a 7 game series.
( 08, 10, 11, 16, 17, 20 - at the least - then you got your 12's, 18's and 07's )
We ain't in 7 game series.

How bout things roll our way this season?

Kind of been eerily quiet coverage for this weekend. I understand the NFL news cycle dominates the sports world more than CBB, but still. This is a great sports weekend.

You seem to have the same problem lately...

Please don't ban me mr. hall monitor. 🙏
Yeah. I post a lot.

You miserable tool.
"A lot" is relative. Sure seems like "a lot" of your posts are directed at me or about me.

Have a great day mr security guard!

That'd be nice. But your unpaid employee doesn't seem to understand your assignment.

I think if Remy plays all season, then this team's top ceiling would give them a chance against 2011, 2016, 2017. Those teams weren't just loaded with pros in the rotation, either.

I recently watched a lot of the Richmond/VCU 2011 games, and while I loved Marcus, my gosh was that an outdated offense. Congestion, standing around, high-low ball. It's no wonder Tyrel's 3pt% took a dip that season.

i like the way you think
Have we fallen into a mesmerized state that makes us accept as inevitable that which is inferior or detrimental, as though having lost the will or the vision to demand that which is good?

We would be/have been better if CB was more aggressive on the shot takes. His percentages were way too high for most of the season for the shot attempts, and would pass up open looks. Remy's emergence fixes some of that in the halfcourt.

I have no issue with Och's approach to his offensive game this year. Ous needs to drop the August 2021 narratives after Och goes 19 PPG, consensus AA, NPOY finalist, and projected lottery pick.

Nope, but you, too! Be sure and ____ yourself!

Sweet Sixteen games kicking off today.

#4 Arkansas vs #1 Gonzaga
#11 Michigan vs #2 Villanova
#3 Texas Tech vs #2 Duke
#5 Houston vs #1 Arizona

A great slate of games. Michigan vs Nova is the only one that doesn't feel very interesting, which of course means that it will be the most interesting. Cheering for Texas Tech to end Coach K's season. Honestly, I am cheering for all the lower seeds to win.

I did this somewhat recently with different games but same year and it was a TERRIBLE offense. Basically it was "Twins, do your thing and the rest will get figured out."
