That's just the Kansas way. He'll stick with all his team and maintain a positive attitude regardless. He's now some bandwagon fair-weather fan who gets all beeyatchy and leaves his teams when things aren't going so well, like Dallas Cowboys fans. Two of my teams are from Missouri Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cmh6476 516 Posted February 20 I don't know many people who get excited about a primetime game featuring TCU, but they get Big Monday tonight. If KU wins it makes the road to winning the Big 12 much easier, as TCU is they only team which got 'em at AFH. And they didn't just get them, they mopped the floor with them last time these two teams played. Enjoying the day off, may grill later and probably enjoy a couple cold ones while watching this later. Probably some of the Oklahoma State/ WVU game as well that's on at 6. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cmh6476 516 Posted February 25 My poor son. He's a sophomore and isn't all world or anything but loves playing baseball abs a bunch of his friends are on the team. I assume he'll make JV. Tuesday he was planning to go to senior night against KU where it's likely Mahomes would be in attendance. Nope, mandatory baseball tryouts. Then I see there are JV games on royals opening day which I had planned to take him to (I've personally never made it to opening day), and NFL Draft night 1 which he really wanted to go to. Also, I can't watch the Baylor /Texas game as I'm sitting here waiting for KU to start as I canceled my espn subscription and don't want to pay the $9.99 for the month just for that game Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Last two national champions, and KU was the # overall seed the prior year when the tournament was cancelled. Easily the best conference in the country this year.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but I know Bill Self has said time and time again, winning the regular season is more important than winning the conference tournament. I would happen to agree with him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pimpadeaux 1,344 Posted March 1 We're going to the Houston-Wichita State game tomorrow. I'm sort-of a Houston fan, and the wife is sort-of a Wichita State fan, but we just love college basketball. She's a bigger fan of Kansas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But it's typically a top heavy league. Kansas and Baylor. Nobody fears Texas Tech, Iowa St, Texas, TCU, etc. Now, you can say this about most leagues, but take Kansas out and it's "typically" an average league. This year it's deeper and probably the best league in the country from top to bottom. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've had two season tickets, this year and last being my first time getting them. I'm contemplating adding two more seats next year, and going to up my Williams Fund donation to try and get better priority. I've easily made my money back from having just two tickets and selling a little more than half the games. Since Houston is joining the conference next year, and we'll have 14 teams in an interim year with the four added teams and prior to OU and Texas departing, it's not a guarantee Houston will play in Allen Field House next year. But assuming I have four tickets rather than just two, if you and the Mrs. wanted to come to KC/ Lawrence for the game next winter we could have all sorts of toofy/ rusty shenanigans.

I hear what you are saying, but there always seems to be two or three other teams in the top 25 in addition to KU. It may not consistently be the same team, but there's always a couple in addition to KU and Baylor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is incredible to have a run that they are having especially with the one-and-done players and now the transfer protocol... Yes, it is. Ultimately, people expect NCAA Championships and it's hard to say if Bill will ever win another one or not, but the legacy he is leaving is remarkable. I saw someone post that if KU were to win the NC this year, he could pass the great Phog Allen with most all-time wins at Kansas. If Self were to win another title he will tie Roy Williams, Jim Calhoun and Bob Knight with three, and only trail Adolph Rupp (4), Coach K (5), and the legendary John Wooden with 10. It's hard to imagine anyone will ever come close to Wooden's record, but there's no reason to think Bill has plans of retiring anytime soon and could definitely start to catch some of those others.

cmh6476 516 Posted March 2 Great games between Alabama/ auburn and Texas/tcu. I was kind of hoping Texas would win, so that the ku/Texas game was either for a share of the title or outright crown for ku with a win. I think it still means a lot, simply for ncaa tournament seeding and locations. It behooves Kansas to bypass Houston, because they are likely to send Houston to kc over Louisville for the Midwest regional, and that sends ku elsewhere. Anyone else going to any conference or tournament games, at any division level? The women's division ii championship is in my hometown, but I'll actually be in des Moines that week for the men's 1st and 2nd rounds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
