Now, however, he is at the end of his sophomore season. Mykhailiuk came to Kansas with a huge reputation, so it will be interesting to see if he decides to stick it out at KU or transfer elsewhere in the spring.

Wouldn't be shocked in the slightest if Mykhailuk transferred. Sophomore, only 18, isn't getting shit for minutes at KU, shows that he can fill it up and play defense and handle the ball in very limited minutes the past several weeks.

Despite 17 points versus Texas, he's still behind Selden again next year.

Easily could sit a year, come back at 19/20 years old after practicing in someone else's system, and light shit up as a junior.

Utah, Arizona or Gonzaga would be ideal fits where he could immediately step in. Utah and Arizona have put guys into the first round of the NBA draft recently that don't come close to Svi's talent level.

IMO, he's wasting his skills at KU.

I find this entire thing ridiculous. He has had plenty of opportunities to play and he was still really, really, really not ready.

The last two weeks, the light has come on, and he's now the first guy off the bench and was tasked with running the point while Graham and Mason sat on the bench.

Svi isn't going to transfer and sit out a year. It makes no ****ing sense. If he were resigned to not going to the NBA for two years, why the **** wouldn't he spend that year at a familiar place, with a HOF coach, continue to get minutes playing for a national title contender, and then move directly into the starting lineup when Wayne and Mason and Greene all graduate after next year?

He'd still be a starter at the same time as if he transferred, and all of this is predicated on the idea that Selden comes back, which I still find doubtful.

It holds absolutely no water. Just a bad theory.

And this is the year I finally take that life drawing class.

Svi is the farthest thing from a non-factor. Seth doesn't know what he's talking about.

He was 1 for 8 from the floor (0 for 4 from three) in Saturday's 67–58 win over Texas Tech. My coaches in the Enemy Lines report suggested he does not use his strength and athleticism well and relies too much on outside shooting. Maybe it's time (actually long past time) for him to start driving more.

Seth Davis. LMAO

Seth Davis is an idiot but he's 100% correct in the view that Selden relies too much on the three and should drive a lot more.

Prison Bitch 03-03-2016 09:23 AM

No, Seth Davis is not an idiot.

He's sometimes an out-of-control mess while driving, so it's hard to trust him on that either. Also somehow shoots under 60% from the line, so if he gets fouled it is not exactly a great thing.

I don't think there's any easy solution with Selden. He just has to play better and harness that high level that has has shown on occasion more frequently. That has to involve making his open threes, choosing his spots to drive wisely, limiting his mistakes offensively, and staying defensively committed for an entire game.

Here's the snippet on KU from the Enemy Lines report Davis referenced. As well as the link. Pretty spot on scouting by the other coaches not just for KU but the rest. Interesting read, especially the speculating about if there's some jealousy on OU's roster. Wonder which coach gave that info lol. Huggins perhaps? Lol

Kansas (23–4, 12–3): "They have two small guards playing together, which can be good and bad. You can get them in mismatches. Sometimes I think they overpenetrate too much. They're going to high-low you to death. They don't even try to hide it. [Senior forward] Perry Ellis can be up and down, but when he's playing well they're unstoppable. I think [junior guard Wayne] Selden disappears sometimes. He has one of the best bodies you'll see on a two-guard, but he's not a physical guy. He's a jump shooter with a great body. I don't think he has that dog in him. Their weakness is low-post scoring at times. So they're even more dependent on making threes and scoring in transition than usual. Their high-low offense has always been dictated by playing inside-out. Now they're playing outside-in. [Junior forward Landen] Lucas has really been a difference-maker for them defensively. You've got to try to make Ellis go left. He loves to drive left and then spin back to his right. He can take too many jump shots at times. When Ellis goes out, you can score at will on them inside. Ellis is very valuable defensively because he's so smart. When we run our stuff, he's there before our guys get there. [Junior guard Frank] Mason is a warrior and [sophomore guard Devonte'] Graham just loves to play. He plays happy, he plays with energy. Selden is a weak point defensively. If Selden has to chase somebody, he can't do it. If you can get someone who can move without the ball, he has trouble."

John Gasaway
ESPN Insider

Here are the 50 finest NCAA tournament-eligible coaching performances I've seen this season:

1. Bill Self, Kansas

The man is one regular-season championship away from tying UCLA's record of 13 consecutive major conference banners, and that mark was recorded primarily (though not entirely) by John R. Wooden. May I stop there? Fine, one more thing in keeping with the 2015-16 thrust of this piece: Self showed a laudable experimental spirit with his center position for much of the season. It paid off. Landen Lucas playing alongside Perry Ellis has proven to be a highly effective combination. Self was my preseason choice as national coach of the year, and I'm sticking with him.

Pretty good for a guy on the "hot seat" a month and a half ago.

If only we had some good guards, Bill Self wouldn't be getting fired at the seasons end.

Half of my feed wanted him fired after the first half against Kentucky.

Who's had the biggest comeback this year? Self or Soft?
