*****Official KU vs. OSU thread*****

[Skip Towne]

8 PM - ESPN2 - OSU head coach Sean Sutton attempts to do what his father never did in 16 years at OSU. Win in Lawrence. Hopefully, no cigar.

[Silock]

I hope we win, but I just don't have confidence in this Jayhawk squad after the past two tournaments and the beginning of this season.

[Silock]

Get pumped!

[Skip Towne]

I hope we win, but I just don't have confidence in this Jayhawk squad after the past two tournaments and the beginning of this season.
Me either. I haven't had confidence in the :KU: since Self arrived. How could I? He has lost to 4 mid-majors in 18 months. (I'm counting DePaul whether they are a mid-major or not)

[Reerun_KC]

Should be a great game. OSU is playing lights out basketball this year. They are alittle shallow on the bench. KU's debt should prevail...

Looking forward to this game. Have the utmost respect for OSU and their fans...

[Reerun_KC]

It'll be aright Skip...

It could be worse, we could be rooting for MU, CO or KSU....

[Silock]

Duke is about to lose to Tech!

[Skip Towne]

OSU is 15-1 with a couple of quality wins. It should be a dog fight.

[Reerun_KC]

Duke is about to lose to Tech!


But they have Greg Paulus? how could they lose?

It is about time that Coach Kkajd;fjwoeur start faking a back injury?

[Silock]

The fieldhouse is jumping tonight.

[Silock]

But they have Greg Paulus? how could they lose?

It is about time that Coach Kkajd;fjwoeur start faking a back injury?

ROFL

[leviw]

Fran is the man.

[Reerun_KC]

You mean Phran Franscilla?

[leviw]

You mean Phran Franscilla?

Yeah. Whatever that means.

[Reerun_KC]

This is going to be one tough game... Faton and Jameson Probation will be a big challenge for our guards...

[Reerun_KC]

Yeah. Whatever that means.

Ask williamtheirish....

[Silock]

Worst opening KU possession ever. WTF was that?

[Silock]

...and second possession.

[Reerun_KC]

2 striaght TO's?

[leviw]

Ask williamtheirish....

He's bitter. I'll wait a few days.

[Reerun_KC]

2 TO's each....

each time is very tight right now!

[Reerun_KC]

Kaun for the Monster dunk!

[Skip Towne]

SASHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Reerun_KC]

oh baby there you go!

[Silock]

That's an early-ass timeout.

[leviw]

This has the feel of one of those....



....nah, not going to say it.

[Reerun_KC]

This has the feel of one of those....



....nah, not going to say it.

No you dont, dont go there!

[Silock]

OMG... we finally go full-court press!

I don't know how long I've waited for Self to do that.

[Skip Towne]

Ask williamtheirish....
He's hiding out 'cause KSU sucks.

[Reerun_KC]

Kind of a cheep foul!

[Reerun_KC]

Rush for 3!!!!!!!!!

[leviw]

Rush needs 20+ tonight.

[Reerun_KC]

Sutton is going to lose it...

A little more High strung than the old man....

[Skip Towne]

SASHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Silock]

One thing we don't need is to get into serious foul trouble.

[Reerun_KC]

Irish man doesnt like Fran, Fran leans alittle towards KU....

[leviw]

Eaton took that knee to the throat.

[Reerun_KC]

OSU cant afford Foul Trouble.....

They are very shallow on the bench right now...

[leviw]

Jules is kinda athletic.

[Skip Towne]

Wright is a magician.

[Reerun_KC]

Kinda? Ya think?

[Reerun_KC]

Another foul.....

Kaun could have a monster game!

[leviw]

Sasha is creating some mismatches down there. This is where Self's offense works.

[leviw]

Kinda? Ya think?

It was a little sarcasm.

[Skip Towne]

One thing we don't need is to get into serious foul trouble.
The guards can foul. We still have Collins.

[Reerun_KC]

OSU is getting in to Foul Trouble, not good for them....

[Silock]

Sasha is creating some mismatches down there. This is where Self's offense works.

For now. Until Sutton makes a halftime adjustment and Self doesn't.

[Reerun_KC]

For now. Until Sutton makes a halftime adjustment and Self doesn't.

Self is not like Herm here. He will adjust....

[Skip Towne]

OSU is getting in to Foul Trouble, not good for them....
Nope. They are short handed due to injury and dismissal.

[Reerun_KC]

Skip? When are we going to get together for a Beakers game?

[Silock]

The guards can foul. We still have Collins.

Right, but we don't want to keep them in the game by giving them free shots and a chance to rest their good players with the tempo slowed down.

[leviw]

For now. Until Sutton makes a halftime adjustment and Self doesn't.

Wow. That statement wasn't even thought out, was it?

[Reerun_KC]

Nope. They are short hande due to injury and dismissal.


Heard on the sports animal here in OKC that they are playing 7 deep tonight....


Foul trouble is something they cant afford...

[Silock]

Self is not like Herm here. He will adjust....

He hasn't done much of that in his career at KU. Maybe he's learning, though.

[Skip Towne]

Skip? When are we going to get together for a Beakers game?
I'm game.

[Reerun_KC]

Cool I will send you a PM....

[leviw]

He hasn't done much of that in his career at KU. Maybe he's learning, though.
Remember the OU game last year at all? How about the Big 12 Title game? How about the OSU Big 12 Tourney game?

[Reerun_KC]

Kaun is on a roll right now!

[Skip Towne]

SASHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[chiefsfan987]

What's gotten into Kaun? He's an animal tonight.

[Silock]

Remember the OU game last year at all? How about the Big 12 Title game? How about the OSU Big 12 Tourney game?

Or the ORU game when dude went 7 for 8 from 3 and nothing was done about it?

[Skip Towne]

It's great to see KU running.

[Silock]

What's gotten into Kaun? He's an animal tonight.

If he plays like this all season, KU will be even better than expected.

[Skip Towne]

I'd like to see Boggan out of there.

[Reerun_KC]

T foul on Sutton..

I told you he was going to exploded...

[Reerun_KC]

Sutton isnt long for this game....

[leviw]

Or the ORU game when dude went 7 for 8 from 3 and nothing was done about it?

He made five of the seven in the first half.

[Silock]

This game is AWESOME so far! I love the press and the running! KU is on FIRE right now!!!

[Reerun_KC]

Holy Crap!!!!!!!

Brandon Rush off the hook!

[leviw]

If he plays like this all season, KU will be even better than expected.

How could that be? Expectations haven't exactly been quiet.

Nice dunk by Rush, btw.

[Reerun_KC]

He made five of the seven in the first half.


ORU is over. Forget it.. Time to move forward.....

We are playing for the Big XII now...

[Skip Towne]

Man our guards look like football players. All 200 pounders.

[leviw]

ORU is over. Forget it.. Time to move forward.....

We are playing for the Big XII now...

Must of us have.

But hey, thanks for the advice.

[Silock]

He made five of the seven in the first half.

Okay, then take out the "halftime" part and just leave it at adjustments.

I'm not saying Self sucks, but he isn't the best pure coach in the world. I guess I'm just spoiled by Roy Williams. That guy could coach the hell out of players. I haven't seen that from Self. Come on . . . two straight first round losses in the tourney? Self needs some coaching work.

I'm still happy we have him, and there isn't anyone else I'd realistically want to bring in. Just saying he could be better.

[Reerun_KC]

Must of us have.

But hey, thanks for the advice.

Hey its all good, your a Jayhawk fan, I wont bash you....

[Lzen]

Holy Crap!!!!!!!

Brandon Rush off the hook!

Yeah, baby!! Rush is anothe guy that has been playing really well lately.

[Silock]

How could that be? Expectations haven't exactly been quiet.

Nice dunk by Rush, btw.

Because instead of just winning, they could dominate, which is different. Expectations have certainly calmed on KU as the season has unfolded so far.

[Reerun_KC]

Okay, then take out the "halftime" part and just leave it at adjustments.

Okay its alright.... Roy is gone...

Self is a good coach... You cant win the title every year... Be happy your not a MU or KSU fan....

[Silock]

Yeah, baby!! Rush is anothe guy that has been playing really well lately.

He's finally staying aggressive and it's paying off. I hope he keeps it up!

[Silock]

Okay its alright.... Roy is gone...

Self is a good coach... You cant win the title every year... Be happy your not a MU or KSU fan....

I know :) Just sayin'.

I'm done now. There's a great highlight reel on ESPN2 right now :)

[Reerun_KC]

He's finally staying aggressive and it's paying off. I hope he keeps it up!

He as to be the goto guy... I hope he can keep it up....

[leviw]

Okay, then take out the "halftime" part and just leave it at adjustments.

I'll agree. No one should be happy about the two first-round exits. But remember, he took his first KU team to the Elite --an overtime loss from being in the Final Four.

He's a fantastic coach and recruiter. His history speaks for itself.

[Reerun_KC]

Nope get that crap out of here!!!!

[Reerun_KC]

Julian Wright reminds me of Magic Johnson...

[leviw]

Julian Wright reminds me of Magic Johnson...

Except he can't handle the ball.

[Reerun_KC]

KU has to hit the free throws tonight....

[Skip Towne]

Great defense by KU.

[Reerun_KC]

Except he can't handle the ball.


What? He can run the court, has great court awareness, can dunk, block and play the 3...

Your silly...

[Skip Towne]

At this rate, KU will score 100.

[Reerun_KC]

KU needs to get out of this scoring slump here.... OSU changed there Defense...

Fouls are adding up...

Anyone have a foul count?

[leviw]

What? He can run the court, has great court awareness, can dunk, block and play the 3...

Your silly...

He can't dribble to save his life, dude. Have you watched him?


He's a tremendous athlete. Can jump out of the gym and has great passing skills. But he can't dribble --with either hand.

[Skip Towne]

Except he can't handle the ball.
Bullshit!! He is the master of the no look pass.

[Reerun_KC]

He can't dribble to save his life, dude. Have you watched him?


He's a tremendous athlete. Can jump out of the gym and has great passing skills. But he can't dribble --with either hand.


Okay so hes a keeper!

[Silock]

OSU is so rattled right now.

[leviw]

Bullshit!! He is the master of the no look pass.

That's passing. Not ball handling.

[Reerun_KC]

OSU is breaking down here....

fixing to be a couple more T's coming up...

[leviw]

Okay so hes a keeper!

No question. He'll be a first round pick when he comes out. But Magic Johnson was a point guard. I'm just saying, that wasn't a very accurate comparison.

[Reerun_KC]

That's passing. Not ball handling.

he is still a great player and I love having him on the Jayhawks...


Skip sent you a PM.. Give me a ring....

[Silock]

I almost feel sorry for Jameson Curry. That kid can ball.

[Reerun_KC]

No question. He'll be a first round pick when he comes out. But Magic Johnson was a point guard. I'm just saying, that wasn't a very accurate comparison.

I said he reminds me of him.. Socks, no look passes, his game..


Lets not get to techinical!

[chiefsfan987]

OSU gettin abused.

[leviw]

Anyway...like I was saying...


It feels like one of those nights...

[Reerun_KC]

Ouch Chalmers get #2....

yeah might be one of those nights!

[leviw]

I said he reminds me of him.. Socks, no look passes, his game..


Lets not get to techinical!

Dribbling was a pretty big part of Magic's game.

[Skip Towne]

Heh, OSU with 13 points. That's defense!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Silock]

Dribbling was a pretty big part of Magic's game.

So was AIDS.

<-- goes to Hell

[leviw]

So was AIDS.

<-- goes to Hell

Clever.

[Skip Towne]

That's passing. Not ball handling.
:rolleyes:

[Reerun_KC]

Okay I wont make anymore comparisons. Okay?

[leviw]

Okay I wont make anymore comparisons. Okay?

You can do what you want. But be prepared to defend your argument.

[leviw]

Oh my goodness.

[Skip Towne]

Jackson is a monster!!!!!!!!!!

[Reerun_KC]

OH my my my.. Jackson came in with a monster Dunk!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Silock]

Okay I wont make anymore comparisons. Okay?


Don't you get just a LITTLE nervous when you see him take off down the court on the dribble? He always seems to lose it or almost lose it at the top of the key.

What's up with all these missed dunks?

[leviw]

Rush should have had his too.

[Reerun_KC]

You can do what you want. But be prepared to defend your argument.


Shut up and enjoy the game.

Keep it up and I wont pass the pretzels or get you another beer while i am up!

LOL!

[leviw]

Shut up and enjoy the game.

Keep it up and I wont pass the pretzels or get you another beer while i am up!

LOL!

Wow.

[Reerun_KC]

The Fieldhouse is rocking!!!

[Silock]

Ugh. Fouls. Free points, no time off the clock, slows the pace down.

We need to get back to running and pressuring like we were in the first half of the half.

[Reerun_KC]

Kaun is having a great game!

[Skip Towne]

Kaun is breaking out!!!!!!!!

[Reerun_KC]

Collins is getting the ball hammered underneath...

[Reerun_KC]

Klienmann is in? WTF?

[Silock]

Watch out for the giant ginger kid!

[Reerun_KC]

Kaun picking up that foul didnt make Bill happy....

[leviw]

Klienmann is in? WTF?

Why not? Up 20. Steal some minutes.

[chiefsfan987]

Klienmann is in? WTF?

Is self mad at someone for showboating?

[Reerun_KC]

I will go with Leviw, stealing minutes for the guys in the second half.

[Reerun_KC]

Also SaulbadGuy is neg repping the hell out of me... LOL!

Must be pissed that the Kitties arent doing to well....

[Skip Towne]

Klienmann is in? WTF?
Kaun needs relief and Giles is gone. I'd love to see Kleinman develop.

[Silock]

How do you give rep? I don't see an option anywhere. Am I too newb to have access to that feature?

[leviw]

Also SaulbadGuy is neg repping the hell out of me... LOL!

Must be pissed that the Kitties arent doing to well....

Saul? He's a good dude. One of my favorites on the board.

[Reerun_KC]

Saul? He's a good dude. One of my favorites on the board.

I like him as well. I like the freindly banter between KU and KSU.....

I have no problems with him...

[Reerun_KC]

At least the fouls are not on the starters right now....

[Skip Towne]

Eddie Sutton looks awful. For some reason he will be honored at halftime.

[leviw]

Eddie Sutton looks awful. For some reason he will be honored at halftime.

Same reason Norm Stewart was a few years ago. Respect.

[Reerun_KC]

You have to give Sutton Respect! he is a classy coach..

Plus we are KU that is what we do...

Remember sit down Norm?

[Skip Towne]

How do you give rep? I don't see an option anywhere. Am I too newb to have access to that feature?
Go to the post you want to rep and click on the little man yelling next to the edit button. N00b!!!!!!!

[Reerun_KC]

Self is really going deep into the bench tonight... Nice to give our starting 5 plus some, alittle extra break!

[leviw]

Halftime host just said KU "heads to Cedar Rapids to take on Iowa State" on Saturday.

ROFL

[Reerun_KC]

I thought they played in Ames?

[leviw]

I thought they played in Ames?

That's why it's funny.

[Skip Towne]

Also SaulbadGuy is neg repping the hell out of me... LOL!

Must be pissed that the Kitties arent doing to well....
I sent you some rep. Saul is a pussy. He likes womens basketball.

[chiefsfan987]

IS that yahoo box score right? Did missouri really score 79 second half points and lose by 1 to Texas?

[Reerun_KC]

I sent you some rep. Saul is a pussy. He likes womens basketball.


ROFL

[leviw]

IS that yahoo box score right? Did missouri really score 79 second half points and lose by 1 to Texas?

Mizzou is down 88-68 with 29 seconds to go.

P.S> Durant is a freak. 34 points, 12 rebounds.

[chiefsfan987]

Now it says 88-68. Wierd.

[chiefsfan987]

Something musta went haywire with it because just a minute ago it said 106 Texas 105 Mizzou with 29 seconds left.

[Reerun_KC]

Dont like the way this half started!

[Skip Towne]

Keep runnin' dey ass!!!!!!!!

[leviw]

Wow. Russ Rob. That was sweet.

[Reerun_KC]

yes AND 1!!!!

[Reerun_KC]

damn That was a charge!

[leviw]

damn That was a charge!

Points counted.

[Skip Towne]

Now it says 88-68. Wierd.
Shades of Royboy!!!!!!

[Reerun_KC]

There we go.. 3 on Boggans....

[Reerun_KC]

3 on Eaton now...

[Skip Towne]

3 on Eaton now...
I thought it was Boggan

[Reerun_KC]

Boggan and Eaton both have 3....

[chiefsfan987]

KU has made a lot of dumb fouls this evening.

[Reerun_KC]

Now Collins is becoming alittle bit of a liability right now.... Game to with in 13....


Not cool we where up by 22 at one point....

[Skip Towne]

Keep the heat on. I've seen us blow bigger leads

[Reerun_KC]

We need a 10+ - 0 run here!

[Silock]

And we're letting them back in the game, slowly but surely.

I liked the first 10 minutes better.

KAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUN!

[Reerun_KC]

Thats more like it....

[Skip Towne]

More razzle dazzle

[Reerun_KC]

Sure getting alot of quality minutes out of our bench tonight..

Alittle surprised by that!

[Skip Towne]

OSU should start folding up any time now. Look for shots falling short, players bending over grabbing their shorts and gasping for breath.

[Silock]

They're running a little slow, but they're far from dead.

[Reerun_KC]

Keep trading them bucket for bucket...

[Skip Towne]

Rush playing like he can.

[Lzen]

Russ Rob and 1!!

[Reerun_KC]

They're running a little slow, but they're far from dead.

About another 8 - 10 minutes of this and they will be gasping!

[Lzen]

Oops, I guess it was Mario Chalmers.

[Skip Towne]

They're running a little slow, but they're far from dead.
Yes, but, IT'S THAT TIME

[DJay23]

KU has made a lot of dumb fouls this evening.
Inexperience

[Silock]

About another 8 - 10 minutes of this and they will be gasping!

Well, yeah, but another 8-10 minutes and the game will be over! lol

[Skip Towne]

Inexperience
What?? They're sophomores!!!!!!!!

[Skip Towne]

Arthur shows up!!!!!!!

[Silock]

Arthur and Collins are going to be huge down the stretch as they gain experience.

[Reerun_KC]

Razzle Dazzle!

[Silock]

WHAT A PASS!

[Reerun_KC]

KU is best when they are running!

[Reerun_KC]

Jackson picking up some big minutes!

[Coach]

Holy Christ, Okie State is getting dominated.

[Skip Towne]

I'm impressed by this showing. OSU is a quality team.

[Reerun_KC]

Wow... OSU better warm up the bus..

Wont be long until Rock Chalk Jayhawks comes out...

[Silock]

Okay, yeah... this game is over.

[Skip Towne]

KU is best when they are running!
Yep, they should have run ORU out of the building.

[Silock]

Yep, they should have run ORU out of the building.

Careful... ORU is a bad word in this thread!

[Reerun_KC]

Yep, they should have run ORU out of the building.

Hindsight.....


Wake up call for them..

[Skip Towne]

ROCK CHALK, JAYHAWK, KUUUU. ROCK CHALK, JAYHAWK, KUUUU, ...............

[Reerun_KC]

OH my, JW was going to bring down the house ont hat one.....

[Skip Towne]

Hindsight.....


Wake up call for them..
Hindsight? I was saying it when they were losing to nobodies like Bradley and Bucknell.

[Lzen]

Yep, they should have run ORU out of the building.

This KU team is playing so much better than the one that lost to ORU that it doesn't even look like the same team. Plus, they didn't have Sasha Kaun back yet. I think his size and defense would have made a huge difference against that smiley prick that was tearing us up inside. Oh well, that's ancient history.

[Coach]

Jeez, 20 turnovers forced, 17 of them steals? That's insane.

[Silock]

I'm going to laugh when Belmont makes the tourney and KU draws them.

[Reerun_KC]

Hindsight? I was saying it when they were losing to nobodies like Bradley and Bucknell.

Every program has their ORU, Bucknell's and Bradley's It is nothing new.....


Duke is on a down year. Kentucky has been a no show lately.. NC went through the Doughtery years going 10 -20 on year...


So it is not uncommon...

[Reerun_KC]

I'm going to laugh when Belmont makes the tourney and KU draws them.


Oh lord then they will shoot lights out from the 3....

[Skip Towne]

How did the best team in Kansas do tonight? You know, WSU.

[KcMizzou]

Congrats, beakers.

Mizzou got drilled tonight. Kinda expected that... playing at Texas.

[Reerun_KC]

How did the best team in Kansas do tonight? You know, WSU.


They lost agian to Indiana st?

[Reerun_KC]

Congrats, beakers.

Mizzou got drilled tonight. Kinda expected that... playing at Texas.


Durant of Texas is a one man wrecking crew! Freaking animal. Thank God he is only staying one year!

[Skip Towne]

Every program has their ORU, Bucknell's and Bradley's It is nothing new.....


Duke is on a down year. Kentucky has been a no show lately.. NC went through the Doughtery years going 10 -20 on year...


So it is not uncommon...
It is for us, n00b. We have a few but not 4 in 18 months. The major upsets I remember are Richmond, UTEP and Rhode Island before Self. That is in a 20 year period.

[Anyong Bluth]

where's that changing of the guard basketball powers in Kansas thread now...

EAD

[KcMizzou]

where's that changing of the guard basketball powers in Kansas thread now...

EAD
That was Saul... he's silly.

[Reerun_KC]

I remember several myself... Including Santa Clara...

[Reerun_KC]

where's that changing of the guard basketball powers in Kansas thread now...

EAD

They moved it to the kitties message board.....

[Skip Towne]

That was Saul... he's silly.
Saul is the ultimate homer. He spends all day looking for stats proving KSU is superior to KU. But he completely ignores the W/L column. KU has huge leads over them in both football and basketball.

[Silock]

Rock chalk, baby!

[Reerun_KC]

Awesome! Good night...

[Coach]

I remember that one game where the Hawks held Bryant "Big Country" Reeves to like zero or 2 points, although his sidekick (name escapes me) was on fire during that game.

[Skip Towne]

I remember several myself... Including Santa Clara...
We had several tussles with Santa Clara. They looked like the next Super mid-major. I don't remember them beating us but if they did, it was no upset.

[Imon Yourside]

So much for being on pins and needles tonight, that was way too ez.

[Skip Towne]

I remember that one game where the Hawks held Bryant "Big Country" Reeves to like zero or 2 points, although his sidekick (name escapes me) was on fire during that game.
I remember that game. We blanked Big Country when he was kicking everyones ass. Have you seen him lately? He takes up three seats in the stands. We should rename him Huge Country.

[Imon Yourside]

I remember that game. We blanked Big Country when he was kicking everyones ass. Have you seen him lately? He takes up three seats in the stands. We should rename him Huge Country.


Yeah i remember the game and seeing him at IBA a couple of years ago. Dude is like 400 lbs.

[Coach]

I remember that game. We blanked Big Country when he was kicking everyones ass. Have you seen him lately? He takes up three seats in the stands. We should rename him Huge Country.

Yeah, Huge Country would be more fitting. What was the other dude's name though. Stillworth or something, the name escapes me.

[Skip Towne]

Yeah, Huge Country would be more fitting. What was the other dude's name though. Stillworth or something, the name escapes me.
I don't remember either. They have had a lot of good players. A lot of folks don't know that KU and OSU are best of friends. When they, as Oklahoma A&M wanted in the Big 6, most members voted no. KU started twisting arms and got them in. They are my second favorite college team.

[BWillie]

Heres to all the naysayers who have been saying how bad KU is.

<img src="http://www.gdnctr.com/middle_finger.jpg">

[Skip Towne]

Heres to all the naysayers who have been saying how bad KU is.

<img src="http://www.gdnctr.com/middle_finger.jpg">
That's pretty impressive but I don't remember anyone sayig that.

[BWillie]

That's pretty impressive but I don't remember anyone sayig that.

That is not the same as saying KU was bad. It was just the "once every 25 years WSU crowd" showing their ass. Luckily, they disappear just as quickly as they appear. Chief-a-roo is my favorite WSU dumbass. Several are tied for second place.

Didn't get to see any of it. Sounds like a good win.

Ostertag once held that POS douchebag to 0 points in a ball game. Ha, Greg Ostertag.

Very impressive defensive performance last night, I went to bed after the game, I wasn't feeling too well.

I wish this team could play like this each day / night ..... Damn, that was solid.

I still think he sucks. He had a good game big deal, he needs to be more consistent. I'd rather go smaller and just play Wright and Arthur. He's just a big body, nothing else. He's probably the least polished player on the KU roster.

I also really wish Hansbrough would have chosen KU over UNC.
Damn you Roy!

That would be me. And, yes, to every rule there is an exception. Time will prove me right.

I think Sasha Kaun is turning into a very solid player. People don't give him enough credit. Hell, the guy has only been playing hoops for about 5 years. He will continue to get better as this season progresses and into next year.

I don't remember either. They have had a lot of good players. A lot of folks don't know that KU and OSU are best of friends. When they, as Oklahoma A&M wanted in the Big 6, most members voted no. KU started twisting arms and got them in. They are my second favorite college team.
I do not have a second favorite team, but of all of the Big XII teams I respect OSU the most. I love their homecourt advantage, their fans are die hard, and Eddie Sutton was always a very complimentary guy. I thought it was classy when he ran down to shake Hinrich and Collison's hands after their last home game, even though we were crushing Okie State. They also have a long history of winning college hoops. They are one of the underrated programs historically.

Watching Kuan grow into his capabilities is one of the great aspects of this year's team [or, growth as a general proposition, of college sports].
Last year I was constantly bemoaning how a guy with his low post physique continued to make bone-head plays.
If he continues to develop, he's gonna be a monster in the tourney.

Watch, I just probably cursed him somehow, and I don't even subscribe to Sports Illustrated.
