They went from dominating the Big 12... then expansion hits and they now can't get past teams like Arizona, Houston, BYU

Kansas is mid
Three of the Big-12 "Final Four" are new additions to the league!!

Maybe Machina can translate for us what he meant by this.

Self calling out his players big time after last night.

If you find that interesting I suggest you watch the postgame interview with Hunter. "With NIL we are all getting paid and should be more professional." He spoke about NIL and how every player was getting paid so openly it was a bit of a shock. Also in the postgame Self didn't give a lot of credit to Arizona. Basically said we were lucky in the fact that our outside shots fell and that they were tired because he can only play 6 guys.

Do we want AJ Storrs because he is going to be available in my opinion. Averaged almost 17 at Whiskey.

My Wisconsin alum buddy who I talk hoops with was happy to see him move on. Apparently he was a bit of a black hole.
Of the 12 coaches, Rush picked the one whose fans have the deepest passion, the longest memories, the greatest lung capacity and … did I mention deep passion?

The guy I want from Whiskey right now is John Tonje. I'd give a nut for him.

A few First round exit factoids:
And not such a good morning for ...

THE (7) KANSAS JAYHAWKS ...

Let's start with some history:
  • This is just the third time since the tournament expanded to 64 teams in 1985 that the preseason No. 1 failed to win an NCAA Tournament game.
  • Kansas has been the preseason No. 1 five times and hasn't made the Sweet 16 any of those times.
  • This is the first time Kansas lost in the first round since 2006
.

This Kansas team just never seemed right. There was so much talent both retained and acquired, but the Jayhawks couldn't shoot and looked lackadaisical and disjointed offensively too often. That reared its ugly head again: Over the last 4:30, the Jayhawks had more turnovers (six) than points (five) as Arkansas finished on a 15-5 run. After 11 points in the first half, Hunter Dickinson had zero in the second half.

Can’t wait to hear that Dick-in-son is coming back for his 12th year of college basketball.
