They should know better than to interview KJ right after he's been reading this thread:

KJ Adams breaks down his stellar performance in KU's loss to Cincinnati

I haven't had enough coffee yet today to tune out that background chatter.

but, despite a dumpster fire of a game as a whole, KJ actually did alright.

Dood is a mismatch when we get him the ball in the paint.

Kinda wonder how well a guy like KJ really pairs with a guy like Hunter.

It's disappointing to see so many Kansas fans being rude towards the KU players on social media. Too many keyboard warriors out there like Q talking shit to the players.

That's not supposed to be a Kansas thing.

Back when the kids were at least somewhat portrayed as student/athletes, sure, leave them alone, they are learning and growing.

Not in this landscape. Most of the men’s team is making grown up sized money.

And he's a mismatch on defense at the 5.

We got clobbered by 20 against a bad team. Kj at the 5 sucks. He's 6'7.

A. They are 18-22 year old kids and this is Kansas so we uphold tradition and pride ourselves in respecting the game ( not supposed to be a Kansas thing )
or
B. They are professionals making lots of money and people can bitch about how poor they are doing ( Kansas thing is out the door now )

I think it's fine to bitch about them on messageboards.

I do not think it's fine to go spam their social media talking shit to them and telling them they suck.

They're still humans. They're just playing a game.

I don't think it's fine ( I sure wouldn't do it even if I was active on social media ) but it's definitely more, "well you gotta deal with that now" rather than, "fuck those insufferable loosers, these are college kids".

If you're getting paid hundreds of thousands, it's more than just a game.

Why is this clown making references to social media trolling? None of us here are doing that here. Apples to oranges to argue for this fuck.

Because Kj references staying off social media in his postgame.

That's why.

Because of us? You are trying to draw comparisons to us venting here to that. Which is selective and wrongly so.

Find a connection between posters here bitching and someone calling a player an overpaid player a cunt or something of the sort on social media and you’ll have a fair analysis.

No, I'm not. There are 18 people on this site. I am confident the players don't read this forum.

I just said in a post that bitching about players on a messageboard is fine. That's what they're for.

But then you have to throw in a hook to be contrarian. Maybe one more game then you go crawl back in your hole.

As a KU fan, I hope for more. But not of you.

The players and coaches read this forum daily.

Should I donate to site?

They should be paying us for all the advice.

Guilty this morning. Usually I don’t unblock the posts to read.

What’s worse? Skyline Chili or the way KU has played the last month?

Skyline chili is gross.
