What time does Arizona play this weekend? And posters on this board have been saying that all year and we're still dancing.

I have to give credit where credit is due. This is Bill Self's best coaching year probably ever. The Jayhawks absolutely sucked earlier and he found a way to effectively use a dominate outside game and little inside game. He has done well......now it is time to bow out and break Kansas's heart once more. One thing we should learn from Kansas is the value of drop dead shooter. To bad Ben Howland could not hang on to Kansas best player that transferred in from Miss St. I think he had 32 against Duke.

Can’t disagree with anything here.

Congrats to Kansas. Now go get destroyed by Nova.

I would argue KU has 4 knockdown shooters. Vick is he only the only of the 4 major guards/wings that is less than 40% from 3 and he is at 38%. Not too shabby.

What a huge win for Self and KU today. I think their shaky D is gonna sink them vs. Nova, but beating Duke to reach the FF is a huge achievement.

Very envious of KU these days.

The only time I pull for Kansas is when they play Duke. Reluctantly happy to see Kansas win under the circumstances. Loved seeing Duke and all its one-and-done, five-star talent go down.

Huge congrats to KU! Unbelievable job by Self and Team to get to the FF after a disastrous noncon schedule. Very envious at this point.

For example, did Ivan Rabb regret spurning Arizona for Cal? It seemed like he was an Arizona lean during most of high school, but due to family pressure, ultimately stayed in the Bay Area. His two years at Cal were largely mediocre and the teams did nothing; meanwhile had he played on superior Arizona teams, he may have had a greater career (in addition to possibly wishing he was part of the program). Apparently O'Neil who clearly wanted to play for Arizona, but decommitted after the ESPN hit-job and quickly committed to UCLA, allegedly had regrets. When he plays his first game at McKale in a UCLA uniform, will feel any regret (the same goes for Williams if he signs with Oregon)?
The only ones that come to mind are Kaleb Tarczewski and DeAndre Ayton.
Lol, looks like enfuego just broke his word and jinxed his team in the FF....lmao if this happens.

I have never and will never congratulate Kansas. Their fans have major disrespect towards Lute and Sean is not far behind. That said good for them, one of the very few years they didn't choke in the tournament. Nova got in that ass though.

I'm not a KU fan either but they had a great season. Just wish the Cats could fare as well in the tournament as Kansas does. I will always love Arizona basketball but at present we aren't even close to being on Kansas' level at basketball. Again I give credit where credit is due. Probably wouldn't hurt you to do the same.

I don’t understand. Are you saying they had good karma? In that case I agree. This isn’t the most talented KU team but they fought and clawed and made a Final Four.

Bucknell, Bradley, N Iowa, VCU, Stanford. That doesn't include all the tournament losses as a higher seed. They've had as many fails as the next elite program. They've just run the overrated Big XII.

Thank God for Calipari Memphis team who shot terrible from the line all year. But I give credit to Chalmers for hitting the a memorable 3 and Kendall Marshall's wrist in 2012. Before this year chokehawk fans were on the fence with their coach now they act like he's John Wooden.

Rock Chalk I guess

True we are not on their level for basketball but our school is about 10000000000 times better in basically every way.

They can have some more final fours, I will take hotter chicks, better weather, pool parties, dirtbags, frogs, and Tucson all day every day over anything the U of Kansas offers

Sorry Unfuego but look on the brightside you still can come on another colleges message board and talk trash....that is really what life is all about

Nope, obviously they overachieved and did awesome to get a FF...if you’d read my earlier posts you’d seen that I congratulated them BUT called out enfuego for jinxing his team with first, declaring he’d not trash talk us for fear of jinxing his team....THEN he got cocky in the Regret thread and trashed us....THUS he brought bad karma onto his team IMO.

UAE and others understood my point.

I’d take a Final Four over our pathetic showing, and if anything it was Arizona who got fucked by the righteous cock of karma.

I know I’m not gonna talk trash about one team losing in the semifinal when ours got beat by a double digit seed, but you do you homie.

Beachcat97 · Post by **Beachcat97** » Sun Apr 01, 2018 2:01 pm

Yeah. Kansas has now been to three FFs and has won a NC under Self. And then there’s the Big 12 streak.

Self’s run at KU resembles Lute’s at AZ.

I read phog.net yesterday to see how they were taking it. Most people seem to have adopted the part about the university being a victim as the complete exculpation of Self and Kansas even though it isn't. It's the same language as we got, Louisville got and every other university will see.

I hope this keeps happening. Expose how systemic this really is and force the NCAA's hand.

Their issue with no coach involvement is lose the final 4 and its money and more importantly lose their conference title. That is what you get when you play an ineligible player....oh and lose that player next year.
