Top prospect Andrew Wiggins chooses Kansas

That video of him putting the ball behind his back as he went up to dunk it... it's just eye popping. Was that an 8 foot rim? It was like he didn't even have to gather himself to jump.

Carmelo Anthony... and a UK kid named Davis, I believe it was... those were one and doners too... I'm assuming we're going to have a great shot at the Final Four. Of course, we do need to continue our streak of Big XII championships. I saw the road sign the other day on I-70 for K-State's 2013 Big XII Basketball Championship. That's just embarrassing. We don't need to share that ever again! It's humiliating.

KU freshman Rio Adams to transfer

Kind of a dumb statement here since that team is no more... especially THIS team. They're all gone. Why watch it? No one spends more time and energy analyzing film than the KU coaches and assistants. No one! Now, true, Self could possibly learn something such as, "There's a time to give up on someone." Thing is, I thought he should have given up on TT and I was flat out totally wrong about that one. I held out hope for EJ until he blew this last game up all on his own. I think his nickname could be IED now. That was the worst tournament performance of any guard in the history of basketball, from the crotch shot in the beginning to the choke pass at the buzzer. When someone is making it his business to blow a game up like that, Coach Self should recognize it and have a plan B.

Kansas arrives in Dallas, ‘excited’ to meet Michigan

A Jayhawk doesn't usually have to kill a Wolverine. Wolverines are going extinct in the first place... and since the Jayhawk is a mythical bird that flies backwards, it will always survive to fight another day... where as the Wolverine will eventually die out from neglect, abuse, and lack of people who care about it enough to leave its habitat undisturbed.

Jayhawks flocked to Elijah Johnson in victorious locker room

Awww come on Coach... another 30 or 40 years would be great for all of us. Then, we'll let you retire.

Weis: Juco Jayhawks have chance to challenge vets, turn around program

At Notre Dame, the dream turned into a nightmare. Granted, this is better than TG. But putting a potted plant out there on the sidelines and dressing it up with a set of headphones and maybe a clipboard would have been better than TG. There are 3 seasons, guys. The season, the recruiting season, AND the season of PLAYER DEVELOPMENT. CW has never succeeded in that third category. I only hope he's figured that part out, but the way he talks, you wouldn't know it.

Bruins 'embarrassed' by showing against KU

At least one more year, Mc... It isn't as if you're not developing at KU. Going pro sounds great, but you'll probably sit out another year if you go early and that can't be good.

Opinion: Travis Releford making coach look prescient

I admit it. I rolled my eyes when Self talked about Tyshawn Taylor as if he was going to do anything positive for the Jayhawks. When I asserted that Self was a basketball genius, I had more than one person ask me, "So... explain why Taylor plays." After we all learned to trust Coach Self's judgement on such things, it surprises me that there are still a few non believers around here. If Self says any of these guys are players, there's only one word that's necessary for any of us now: BELIEVE!

Guards Selden, Mason sign letters of intent to play basketball at KU

As Bill Russell once said, "The spokes may change, but the wheel keeps rolling." Great recruiting year. Maybe we should start chanting: Four more years! when these guys walk on the court... or would that be setting the bar too low?

Chattanooga chew-chew: Bill Self's halftime words spur KU to 69-55 win

Only thing is, come on here, the seniors did not carry this team last night. Mac and Tray were monsters. Yeah, they woke up, but really now... It's time to look around and figure out who your stars are.
