Here's an interesting read on Hoiberg. I'd say he's one of the two best coachrd on the conference.

But nobody is a bigger coachard than Scott Drew.

Dear KU,

Please beat #8 ISU and #9 OSU this week.

Haha.

I just did the same thing.

I'd forgotten all about that fantastic '**** you' dunk at the end. Loved it.

Amazing play by EJ down the stretch in that game. Too bad he went back to full reerun against Michigan. I had forgotten how much the commentators were one sided for ISU. Nevermind all the fouls that ISU got away with.

I debated posting that article, but figured you guys wouldn't read it.

Here's a nice little video from last year-

Me too. Nice way to start my day. I actually started giggling like a school girl when he dunked.

****ing ISU clowns.

Best part:

I'll admit I had a hearty chuckle when they panned to Hoiberg's kid bawling it out in his mom's arms.

Man, I really want to put it on these Clone ****s tonight and drink from a river of tears.

I'm sure those tears were delicious for you; considering those were all clearly ISU victories.

Taking that many threes also makes you prone to upsets if you're off.

On a related note, KU winning tonight at ISU would be an upset.

Last year is when we were live/die by the three. This year we are well rounded and can still win games if the three isn't falling. But all five guys on the floor are still a threat to shoot it, so it keeps the offense open.

Yeah, I think it was that act that pushed a lot of the fans past their boiling point. So good.

Yep. Vegas has the Clones as two point favorites.

What's the word on Kane?
