Re: Bill Self w/ 2
fuck off, stalker
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?
Re: Bill Self w/ 2
Agreed. I'd love 1 more year of Dave CB JW and DH. Och too, but i understand why he wouldn't be able to turn down the draft position.
I will say this, that video of him crying after the game shows how much he loves KU. I don't think it'll be an easy decision to leave.

Re: Bill Self w/ 2
So UK is basically the only "turd". Which is a game you could list our entire team and coaching staff.
The rest were bad matchups. Mostly against smaller mobile 5s where Mitch was the better option.
Maybe just be happy for Dave instead of trying to shit on him because you don't like us celebrating him winning us a national title.

Re: Bill Self w/ 2
maybe just go away since you aren’t wanted here?

Re: Bill Self w/ 2
we are about 62 hours removed from a national championship and the whackjobs are still disparaging Big Dave The Legend.
that is what you call a good fan.

Re: Bill Self w/ 2
i give Dave all the credit in the world for stepping up when it mattered most
just the fact that so many here saw, and commented on, the dichotomy of good vs bad Dave speaks volumes
nobody is trying to downplay the celebration, numbnutz…another poster was lamenting posting negative things about bad Dave. there’s nothing wrong with criticizing players when it’s warranted

Re: Bill Self w/ 2
I wonder what Big Dave The Legend has to do to get the good fans off his back.

Re: Bill Self w/ 2
Many of you were overly critical of Dave all season. He made you eat your words.
So did Dajuan Harris. Self and the players gave him as much credit as anyone for turning that game around.
That's why every season, early on, when people are losing their minds about who Self plays, I tend to trust Self. Because he just proved to all of the doubters he knows best. He watches practice. He knows what plays are being called. He know the scouting report that is supposed to be followed.
The messageboarders don't.

Re: Bill Self w/ 2
Everyone on our team (Self included) had a handful of bad games individually this season. But only a few players get singled out.

What matters is that we all recognize that Illannoy is the most supportive, positive and smartest member of this and every other KU board.

i wouldn't go that far. but at least he knows not to publicly disparage Big Dave the Legend 63 hours after Big Dave The Legend delivered us a national championship. that's just common sense stuff.Overlander wrote: ↑Thu Apr 07, 2022 12:50 pm What matters is that we all recognize that Illannoy is the most supportive, positive and smartest member of this and every other KU board.

Sorry you have to comprehend things this way. Sucks for you.
Rock Chalk!
Re: Bill Self w/ 2
Dave wasn't as good as I thought he would be this season. Another slooowwww start.
He wasn't as bad as a number of posters made him out to be this season.
He ended up being our 3rd best player for the entirety of the season and the first best player in the Final Four.
Decent.

He also deserves a lot of praise, for pulling himself out of a pattern where one Bad Dave moment would lead to more, which would lead to Bad Dave games.
He improved, and peaked at the right time. Of course he should be remembered very fondly for this.
Re: Bill Self w/ 2
I think Dave got more criticism than anyone sans Dejuan Harris in my opinion.
I personally think it's both A. the curse of being a big man where people assume because you are close to the basket, you should finish all of your shots, yet dudes who launch 3's aren't as scrutinized because 'it's hard hitting 3's!', and B. because his peak was so high and floor was so low.
