It’s a good thing Roy Williams was nowhere near a computer with an Internet connection after Kansas University’s 76-70 victory over Missouri on Monday night at Allen Fieldhouse.

The Jayhawks’ coach might have smashed it with his bare fists.

“The Internet is like whatever you want to call it. People just put crap on there. Maybe we ought to call it the ‘Crapnet,”’ Williams said, annoyed by wild Internet speculation on the condition of injured sophomore Wayne Simien, who dislocated his right shoulder on Jan. 4.

“That would be a good one. Maybe we can start something in Lawrence, Kansas, where we put rumors on it and call it the ‘Crapnet.'”

Williams, who has promised to keep media updated during Simien’s absence from the lineup, put out a statement about an hour after the game, after Simien and the coach consulted with doctors.

“After visiting with the doctors, it has been decided we are going to continue the rehabilitation process,” Williams’ statement read. “When Wayne feels comfortable and the doctors feel comfortable, Wayne will begin playing again. Another statement will come at that time.”

Prior to issuing the statement, Williams expressed displeasure at recent Internet reports from unnamed individuals who said Simien, a 6-foot-9, 255-pounder who has missed nine games, would soon have surgery.

“All that stuff out there … there’s not been any decision to have surgery. There’s not been decision he’s out, not any decision he’ll play Saturday. We are staying the course,” Williams said. “He has to feel he’s ready, and I have to feel I can put him in there. He’s not at that stage yet. If something comes up, we’ll make an announcement. If not we’ll stay the course.”

On the Big 12 teleconference Monday morning, Williams said: “It hasn’t come along as quickly as Wayne and I had hoped. We wanted him to be out about two or three games. It’s basically about what the doctors expected it to be, and we were just hoping for something better.

“We’ll possibly have another specialist look at it just to get a third opinion and go from there.”

Senior Kirk Hinrich ran the point in Miles’ absence.

“I told him it was just one game,” Hinrich said. “He’ll bounce back. He’s had great games for us.”

Miles may have been coming down with a cold, Williams said.

Walk-on Brett Olson has the flu and did not eat the pregame meal.

Collison grabbed a Big 12-record 23 rebounds and scored 24 points in KU’s 90-87 victory over Texas. He passed Colorado’s Jamahl Mosely, who had 22 boards against Missouri on Jan. 10, 2001. He had 14 points and nine boards in Sunday’s 81-51 victory over Nebraska. He hit 87.5 percent of his shots in the two victories.

Iowa State’s Marcus Fizer was named player of the week a record six times in his career.

• Wooden list: Collison and Hinrich Monday were named to the John Wooden Award midseason top 30 list. Collison and Hinrich join Andre Emmett, T.J. Ford and Hollis Price as Big 12 players on the list. Complete list in Scoreboard, 7C.

• Jerseys retired: Former KU women’s players Angela Aycock and Tamecka Dixon had their jerseys retired in a halftime ceremony.

They are the first women’s jerseys retired since Lynette Woodard’s during the 1992-93 season.

Aycock, who is a novice nun living in Canada, was unable to participate in the ceremony because of her vows. She was in the fieldhouse, however.

“I would like to thank the University of Kansas, the fans, all of my teammates and coach Marian Washington who have placed me in a position to be considered for a great honor such as retiring my jersey,” Aycock said in a prepared statement. “God willing, many more young women will be inspired and challenge themselves as well as others to not limit themselves, but strive for excellence in all things.”

Dixon is a WNBA All-Star who also plays in Italy. She flew in from Italy just for the ceremony.

“Basketball is a team game, and I feel I was part of one of the best to ever wear that uniform,” Dixon said. “It is not an individual accomplishment for me but a team accomplishment.”
