They moved it up this year to offset the football suckage

Sweet! Thanks for the info.

Schools that win don't change conferences.

That's the one universal truth so far in all realignment.

I suppose Syracuse is the one exception.

Since MU left, their fans witnessed that "shit state" of Kansas produce two Final Four teams (Kansas + Wichita State) and one BCS team (K-State).


How did MU respond? First, they were totally humiliated in the greatest Vegas upset, -22.5 to Norfolk, in 30 years of the modern Tourney. In Omaha where 3/4 of the audience was KU fans roaring in laughter waiting for the next game in the pod. Their coach immediately got implicated in a (still ongoing) NCAA investigation. The next Tourney they were bounced first round by a mid-major Moutain West team (I thought KU and KSU were going there?) led by a kid from Lawrence High. The football team led by a DUI-induced coach got humiliated their first year in the SEC. And the star player was caught with marijuana. Topping it off we withheld $13m of their funds.


Honestly, the whole thing couldn't have gone much better. Or provided KU fans more belly laughs.

This is the one year that Mizzou would have had a shot at the Big 12 title.

How's the KU football team been doing? You remember that KU has a football team, right?

What else do they have? It never ceases to amaze me how fans of "football schools" constantly want to downplay KU's passion for basketball. Like it never gets any TV time, never has a highly watched finale, never has remarkable athletes who play in a popular pro league.

I don't know if they're trying to convince me or themselves, but I bet there's not a one who would trade being mediocre in both sports to be excellent in at least one of them. And make no mistake, we are excellent in one of them. Every academic year, KU is a consideration for the Final Four if not National Championship. Every year we have amazing athletes with pro potential. Every year were winning at least the conference championship.

But, I'm supposed to believe that the "football" school who hopes to be bowl eligible each year is my envy. There's only a handful of true "football schools". Everyone else is fodder for their season. Somehow, that type of prospect is supposed to make Jayhawk fans stew that we get labeled a "basketball school".

So, by all means, keep telling us how great it is to win between 7 and 9 games for the season, be just out of the BCS system, just outside of a division or conference championship, be just another team rather than be recognized as a king in "the other sport".

Yeah, we're excited for basketball season all year round. Doesn't mean we don't hope for success in the football program. If you had a program like ours, you would be excited for it all year as well.

You could have just said you agreed with me. LMAO

At least be honest about it HHG - You guys are fired up for basketball year round because your football team isn't worth a shit, and when you're talking about football on a ****ing football BB, that means something.

Enjoy winning at basketball, and enjoy being ridiculed for having an embarrassingly bad football team. If the least humble KU BB fans wouldn't act like Bronco fans about Bill Self's teams, there probably wouldn't be so much shit flung at KU. JMO.

You just went to a BCS game. You get a 5-10 year reprieve from smack talking. Unless of course you wear tee-shirts claiming to be the champ of the Big 12 hoops last year when you know you weren't. But I digress. You accomplished something.


Mizzou never has.

They went 2-6 in the SEC last year, barely avoiding 1-7 by beating another 1-7 team in 4OT. We'll see how they do in conf play against real teams. If it's like the last 100 years, the prognosis is terrible.

How's the outlook with Big Charlie in Larrytown?

KSU basketball sucks.

They are sliding into a dark hole, and football will follow unless they pull off a miracle hire at coach.

I highly doubt that. Their stadium is going to be in the upper 1/3 of BCS schools probably when it's done and with the 20M+ in conference gravy coming in each year they will have plenty of coin to hire a legit coach this time with head coaching experience. Not a Prince. Plus the Kansas juco system is actually quite fertile and attractive to coaches.
