It's not quite the UNI gut punch with that great 2010 team bowing out early or the disappointment of losing to a relatively unknown VCU squad in the E8, but this loss felt like such a waste of a great effort (which it was for most of the game to dominate a team as good as Michigan) and what could have been a great run into next week. Such is the way this tournament goes.

EJ has ****ed up a lot this season, but I can't hate on the dude. He has been a great Jayhawk who's been playing out of position this year without a single complaint. He's also a huge reason we made it to that National Championship game last year.

Agreed, the guy meant so much to this team's success over the past two years and it's quite obvious that KU basketball meant a ton to him. Really sucks that he had to go out that way.
