Too many threes

To the editor:

I have to agree with Bill Mayer’s opinion that KU will not fare as well as it should in the Big 12, until they figure out they have one of the best big men in the country and quit shooting threes like there is no tomorrow. After starting 10-0 in conference play, Self’s awful 3-point shooters will fail to win the conference title! Their poor late-season efforts will cost them a No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament, thus prohibiting them from going more than two or three deep in post-season play.

The Jayhawks’ effort against Iowa State confirms Mayer’s theory. I just hope they can turn it around before the season gets away from them.
