For comparison, you have to go all the way back to 2000 - 2001 to witness Arizona (in a loss to Duke) in a National Title game. Weren't there a couple of NITs in that span too?

Are you going to watch the replay of your esteemed loss tomorrow night? How special for you.

4 years is not that long... But it must seem like an eternity; I mean, this is the third straight year KU could not even win the KS state championship. And that head to head loss to the Shockers really wasn't even close.

Enjoy your trip down memory lane; I am sure it will ease the pain of dealing with KU's present reality and numerous recent failures.

Enfuego is just waiting for the NCAA Technical Winners tournament to end. He is pretty sure Kansas is going to win that.

Hey, at least we're not the second best team in our state this year.

Hard to tell. Didn't you split the regular season with ASU?

Yeah, cause that matters in the situation we are in right now. At least Oklahoma and WVU represented for the 11 in a row champs of their conference.

Why are people still talking about Lawrence St.? They got eliminated by Wichita St. We should be talking about the one Kansas team left in the tourney.

You're a fan of Kansas basketball and your response is "who cares about the past 3 disappointing years, we lost in the championship game 4 years ago." Seriously?

I thought Kansas fans had higher expectations for their team that. A real fan would be sickened by these early round losses (and all of the losses to double digit seeds over Self's career). Based on your response (deflecting the conversation to Arizona) I'm starting to think you might not even be a Kansas fan at all... I honestly don't know how else to explain you acting like those early round losses are meaningless.

Most posters here are still sickened by some of Arizona's disappointing tournaments, both before and after our National Championship. I'm still upset over a goal-tend call in a meaningless game against UConn in 2001, the same season we went to the national championship game.

You on the other hand don't seem to care about these flame outs at all... I find that very interesting. Earlier in the year when Kansas lost a game (I think it was to Temple) your response was "eh, they just got bored, no big deal." Here we have a bad 5 minute stretch and at least one poster is having a panic attack, and the board goes into meltdown mode after any loss. If you're really a diehard Kansas fan, you have a funny way of showing it.

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Thu Mar 26, 2015 2:48 am

Enfuego went from "eh, no big deal" to "eh, shit happens"...

When your post rotation includes Traylor, Lucas and Mickelson who are three players who are mid-major quality post players and when your best post player is playing on an injured knee, **** happens.

When your starting 2 guard puts up another goose egg in the box score, **** happens.

Hard to tell. Didn't you split the regular season with ASU?

If there's anything I'd expect a Kansas fan to do, ignoring tourney results and focusing on the regular season is #1. I know KU's stance that the regular season is the real season and the tourney is just for fancypants dates to Roy at least.

Stay talking trash about the regular season. A Kansas fan needs to stay focused on the regular season.

Meanwhile, Wildcats coach Sean Miller is 13-1 in his career against lower-seeded teams, with the only setback a one-point loss in overtime to second-seeded Wisconsin in last year's West regional final.

I'm not even convinced he's a casual fan. Most casual fans I know would be upset by:

#2 losing against #7 Wichita State
#2 losing against #10 Stanford
#1 losing against #11 VCU
#1 losing against #9 Northern Iowa
#4 losing to #13 Bradley
#3 losing to #14 Bucknell
#4 losing to #9 UAB

I'm really starting to think think that enfuego made up the fact that he likes Kansas. Maybe he's an ASU fan that's too embarrassed to admit it?

All of those lower seeds would win the Pac-12 though.

Stay talking trash about the regular season. A Kansas fan needs to stay focused on the regular season.

Speaking of regular season, by ensoso's logic, Kansas might only be the 3rd best team in Kansas, since they too split with Kansas State, topped off by Bill Self whining about KSU fans rushing the court.

Stepped into that one didn't ya ensoso ...

Context. The prior posts were dogging on KU for losing to WSU and Self being a choker. I simply posted that a mere 3 years to the 2012 tournament title game to see that he's had recent success and pointed out that UA has not been to the title game in 14 years. When you are a 1 seed or 2 seed you are going to lose to lower seeds or you're going to win the title. Who wins the title every year?

So have your fun, but realize, I am laughing at YOU.

Go Xavier.

See there you go again. You're saying you don't care when your team loses to a much lower seed. Most fans on here openly admit that they are devastated by any tournament loss, even to a higher seed, let alone to a lower seed.

I don't care who you think you're laughing at, if you're a Kansas fan why don't you care when your team loses? The only reason you can "laugh" at us is because we care. You openly admit that you don't care, so you're clearly not really a Kansas fan...

What's really strange is why you decided to pretend to be a Kansas fan though. If you're going to pick a team to allow you to troll Arizona, why not pick Duke or Kentucky? It's also not like Arizona and Kansas have any sort of rivalry whatsoever. We rarely play each other, we rarely recruit the same players... the only reason most people here don't like Kansas is you, which is unfortunate because you're clearly not a Kansas fan and are just dragging that fan base through the mud for no reason. Regardless, it was clearly an unfortunate choice because nobody here can take your trolling seriously when your fake team underachieves so often.

Really I feel sorry for you. You don't have a team that brings you joy so instead you try to get your thrills by trying to ruin other people's happiness (i.e. "I'm laughing at YOU"). The fact that you can't even do that successfully makes it even more sad. I sincerely hope that one day you find a way to be happy without having to tear other people down, but considering the fact that you've been doing this for over 10 years and are clearly an adult by this point, I'm honestly worried that you might not be able to get there on your own. Have you considered therapy? I'm not trying to be mean so I apologize if I'm coming off that way, but I'm honestly worried about you.

Yeah, you have to occasionally lose to lesser seeds...like a 2 or a 3. Or, actually playing to seed and losing to a 1 as a 2, or another 1 as a 1. That is reasonable.

Filling the bingo card with all possible options but the mother of all upsets (16) is quite another thing. Don't pretend for a second that everyone who watches the game doesn't know the difference.

You could be a high seed and fall short of the championship every year and not come close to being the hot mess Kansas has been under Self
