The player and his support system care. If you're in the stands and don't care, I assume you'll just sit there and wait politely for someone you do care to see. If you don't care to see any of it then you'll leave at the end of the game and have a little less traffic to fight on the way out of town. A win win. No need to change anything.

Zero problem with how things are now other than that I feel bad for all involved trying to figure out who counts as a senior due to the covid year making a mess of things. Once that runs through in the next few years then this will all get back to a more normal situation.

Feeling confident in a win today? There is money to be made boys

I am hopeful but have zero confidence. Betting on KU in this game seems like the desperate move of a degenerate gambler trying to win big to cover past losses or a fan who doesn't care about their money.

I doubt that you're right about that. My assumption is that other schools offered similar NIL compensation to what they received to go to Kansas.

If you don't think that "oh, and you are not eligible to participate in any Senior Night activities" and then that being publicized every subsequent Senior Night doesn't turn some good players away from KU then you're just choosing to commit to your statement no matter what.

This is just more grumping about transfers.

I think you’re way off base here.
If KU is offering the same million and you get to play for the best coach in CBB no one will care if they get to talk for five minutes.
Kids who are looking for big bucks DGAF about a dumb speech. They don’t care about tradition. Non factor.

Those are all assumptions based solely on your belief that they are all selfish assholes who only care about money.

My guess is that a night where you have the opportunity to thank your parents, coaches, teammates and others who helped you get to that point isn't meaningless.

Ok.

this is a cold arena

Matches KU's shooting. Brutal. Might be a good day to get some yard work done.

I'll agree. this is brutal

1-13 to start. We need to sign nothing but shooters out of the portal. Gruesome.

yay free agency!




yes, I'm going to continue to stubbornly slam my head into a wall on this. NIL and portal combo is the worst thing to happen to the sport in 125 years.

Furphy, a KU recruit, is 7 for his last 30 from three.

Harris, a KU recruit, is 1 for his last 12.

This team cannot shoot and teams just sag off them and clog the lane.

Self needs to recruit better shooters and he needs to hire a coach who can coach shooting technique better.

If you watch, that's actually not how they are defending us.

They are pressing up on our non shooters who can't shoot, and who also can't drive past them.

We have nobody breaking anything down off the dribble. The defense isn't sagging at all most possessions. They're just locking our mediocre offensive players up.

I feel pretty confident saying that Timberlake was a flukey exception to the rule. The vast majority of transfers from small schools to P6 programs scored 10+ ppg at their new program.

Yesufu fluke too?

Self doesn't exactly have a good track record right now with instilling confidence in transfers while they adjust to his system

We can get all the shooters in the portal, and still not be a great shooting team next year. Because dajuan and kj will still be here playing 30+ minutes a game next year

He was never a shooter.

We need a guy you cannot leave open, not a bunch of guys you dare to shoot.

Omg wake up you loosers ahhh!


How did this not get bumped today yet


(I guess cuz we’re not used to playing on the shitty first days of the conference tourney…and we’re starting a goofy ass lineup too)

Is it really gonna be like KJ/Furphy/Justin Timberlake/Elmarko/Dajuan

With Jamari and Haunkier Taunkier for the depth

Buckle up!

Can't wait.

Hope I'm still awake.
