i have not heard a single person even whisper anything close to "fire self" but the reality is that we have some issues that need to be improved.

imo such as:

1. come tourney time, guard play is at a premium so KU needs to plan for that in terms of scheme and recruiting. We need to recruit/develop better shooters/drivers and need an offensive scheme that keeps their shooting sharp all year long.

2. Our offensive scheme leaves us open to upset, more than the norm, because of it's limits and due to the fact that it's the same exact scheme every game. When facing teams, with less talent than us, it open the door to an upsets by having them know exactly what our gameplan is each and every game. They know if they "clog the paint and shoot the 3 ball" they have a real chance to pull an upset. All year long we need to be working on schemes that prevent "clog the paint and shoot the 3" from working. Hell ... just using multiple schemes would help a ton. Every game we should use multiple defensive and offensive schemes so teams have to prep more.

3. Self needs to look for another "Danny Manning" coach for his guards. The improvement gap in big men compared to small is crazy. Either that or it's Self himself with his coaching style/schemes that hurts their development. i dunno.

now i know you don't agree with any of this so a response is not needed or wanted.

So i will just leave you with something you can agree on:

"Self is the best coach in america and KU losing is just normal tourney occurrences combined with bad luck" /KCconnection

or

"KU would of won the NC if they just had 5 Tyshawn Taylor's they could of put on the court at the same time" /KCconnection
