I don’t get this. You already blew your college choice, and a opportunity at another college.

KU is a blue blood program. Top tier every year. The coach is in the ****ing Hall of Fame for crissakes. You have to be convinced by others to listen to what he says? Follow his instructions on how to make you a better player?

Whatever he finally figured it out. That's all that matters.

Do college kids listen to anyone? I know I didn't.

What is the real purpose of continually nitpicking on someone?

What is there to really gain ?

Everybody just man up.

And when you ignored your college coach, did he let you play anyway?

Yeah, mine did. We didn't have a very good B team.

They can't score well at the rim (we don't have much protection down there). They also aren't a particularly good rebounding team, something we can't do. We are going to roll these fools :D

The only Clemson game I've seen was their last one against Auburn. I didn't see anything particularly frightening. It looks like a small ball matchup and I don't see why we won't match up well. I don't see that they are going to have an answer for Doke. As long as KU has a good game things should be fine.

Duke is a different story.
Unless Duke has a bad game, merely having a "good" game probably won't be enough for KU. On the other hand, if KU has a great game shooting 3's, I like our chances against anybody.

Yup. And that's why some coaches can win 14 straight conference championships and some can't.

:D

IDGAF whether KU is playing Austin Peay in the first round or North Carolina in the Final Four, I get nervous for every game. It has nothing to do with match ups or KenPom.

I don't know how you guys don't.

So he had 4 and 8 against Dok. Wow.

KCConnection warned us to be very afraid of Delgado.

Just kidding, he had no clue who Delgado was.

I’m worried every time. But at this point I didn’t expect much out of this team so I’m not terribly worried because I have no expectations.

Everyone does, even against #16 seeds. Some just have a different way of showing it.

Warned about their offensive rebounding which is almost entirely Delgado.

No way man, I meticulously researched Delgado's stats on KenPom. FYI, his closest comparables were David Lee and David West.

Meh. I’m not all enveloped in Kenpoms stuff to see the egregiousness of his cherry picking.

Even if he is hyperbole (not that I necessarily believe it is) he was far less screaming it from the rooftops as he was Ellis being soft and worthless or Trailor being a lump or any number of things (not that I believe those were pure hyperbole either)

No cherry picking, Bearcat apparently just doesn't want to accept the difficult draw that this particular KU team has to deal with this season.

And I don't know about worthless (he was actually quite good and valuable), but man was Perry was soft. He has and will remain the gold standard for softness for the foreseeable future.

Nobody is aware of our rebounding problems.

Only 33%, by comparison Doke is 25% of ours.

His comp is Doke, whom you called a "terrible rebounder". Per 40 they have the same FGA, FTA, steals, turnovers. Doke 12 boards vs Delgado 15. Doke blocks a few more shots and fouls a bit more.
