One could argue that Self still had some talent that Roy left. However, most of that talent did not fit Self's style of coaching. So, he had to build this team to play his style. That explains the 2 1st round losses before the Elite Eight last year and the Final Four this year, IMO.

And they've come out flat a few times when they've had 5+ days off. They had a week off before playing OSU, strugged with A&M in the first half after having 5 days off (iirc), struggled with Nebraska in the first half in the Big 12 tournament... I thought it might come back to bite them in the Sweet Sixteen, but playing Villanova helped. On top of that, they've played nervous in their last two EE games.
Maybe Self should have them watch ESPN all week, so they can get pumped up knowing they'll be playing against God, er, Hansbrough. |

missing wide open shots like we did all game has nothing to do with "x's and o's"...it's just kids feeling the weight of the world on their shoulders.... we had everything to lose...Davidson had nothing to lose...both teams played accordingly... how on earth a KU fan could continue to spout this cliched, Vitale-level nonsense about Self not being a good "x's and o's" crap is beyond me...

Another thing about the defensive game plan. Self said they went to a triangle and 2 for a few plays. That was when Barr (sp?) hit those two 3 pointers. They never used that defense again. At least he isn't a bullheaded, stubborn coach like Herm.

you don't build a team that ranks in the top 5 in BOTH offensive and defensive efficiency ALL YEAR and not understand "x' and o's"....
sorry

This just in, Sasha just picked up his second foul, Jackson and Aurthur are on the bench with 3 already. Syko T with zero fouls or traveling calls is shooting is 11 and 12 FT shots.. Oh and did you know we would only be 35 seconds into the game when this happens? Damn he has heart and whatever the **** they drool over when they are swallowing his load.
Syko T sets NCAA record with 42 FT's in one half... Be prepared fellow hawks... Last edited by Reerun_KC; 03-31-2008 at 09:26 AM.. |

I know about any of you other Jayhwaks, but is anyone else ecstatic about being the Final Four, 35-3-confrence and tourney champion-5 senior-NBA talented underclassmen....UNDERDOG!
All the pressure is on UNC, its there coaching staff that are former KU coaches and players, they have the overall number one, they're the prohibitive favorite, they have the star player. I think we really come out loose and energized for the first time in this tournament in the semi-final. Rock Chalk! Great Season! Great Year to be a Jayhawk! -HH
