What a great game. Glad I tuned in.

It better not end like this though.

Ceej · 02-07-2006, 01:04 AM

What a horribly disgusting finish. Officiating has been pretty bad all around this year.

**banyon** · 02-07-2006, 01:12 AM

Yeah, but whattdya want? It's the WCC.

Their Refs probably get paid in Cheese Puffs after the game.

Prince22 · 02-07-2006, 02:03 AM

It would be foolish to get into a debate with a KU fan on this message board but I want to know where your teams quality wins are this year. Oklahoma is the only one right???

HolmeZz · 02-07-2006, 02:06 AM

This thread needs a little...

U-C-O-N-N UCONN UCONN UCONN.

As an impartial observer, I'd put it like this...

Kansas Quality W's:
- California
- @ Iowa State
- Oklahoma

Kentucky Quality W's:
- West Virginia
- Louisville
- Arkansas

I'm not forgetting the UK/KU game. I was just leaving it out because I think the quality wins are fairly even, all things considered, without taking into consideration that game. Kansas gets the edge overall for having destroyed Kentucky though.

I agree, as they should. I'm just pissed because this guy who obviously knows nothing about UK or college basketball is saying Tubby will be fired. What a dumbass.

How about throwing in @ Colorado for KU QWs? I mean, they are a top 25 team this year, right?

Kansas guard Brandon Rush was named Big 12 rookie of the week Monday after averaging 21 points and 7 rebounds in victories over Texas Tech and Oklahoma. He scored 10 of his game-high 18 points against OU over the final 9:33 and blocked two shots in the final minute as the Jayhawks rallied from a 16-point deficit to win 59-58 in Allen Fieldhouse.

"He can be as good as he wants to be," OU coach Kelvin Sampson said Monday during the Big 12 teleconference. "Had he been a little bit better last year in Chicago (at an NBA scouting camp), he wouldn't be in college. There was a reason he was in Chicago. He's a pro."

Rush leads Big 12 freshmen with a 14.8-point average. Although he has not made enough 3-pointers to qualify for the Big 12 stats, he is 33 of 62 from that range, a .532 percentage.

"Guys that athletic, guys that long usually aren't good 3-point shooters," Sampson added, "but there's no area of the game he's not good in."

SAMPSON MADE REFERENCE to the officiating when asked Monday how he expects the Sooners to rebound from the loss at Kansas.

"It was a frustrating game. there was some things, whether a missed call or non-call, there were a lot of things out of our control," he said. "But that's just basketball and you've got to be tough enough to overcome those things."

DURING HIS RADIO call-in show Monday night, KU coach Bill Self wished Kansas State coach Jim Wooldridge a speedy recovery. It was disclosed Monday that Wooldridge will require immediate surgery for a buldging disc in his neck, which will force him to miss the Wildcats' game on Wednesday against Iowa State.

"I didn't know Jim was struggling," Self said. "This is a terrible time for something like that, but the most important thing is to get right. I know we have a great rivalry and they beat us over here, but you never wish ill will on anybody. We wish he and his staff and players the best."

KANSAS TIP-IN

• KU does not expect any lingering effects for Brandon Rush after he was poked in the eye early in Sunday's game and complained of blurry vision. The KU medical staff administered antibiotic drops.

Note the parts in bold. Then look at a couple clips in my sig. This is why I can't stand that whiney little bitch, Kelvin Sampson. He always whines about the officiating when they lose to KU but his own team fouls more than any other team in the conference. Jackass.

And was it just me or did anyone else take his comments about Rush being at KU instead of the NBA as complaining? As if Rush shouldn't be allowed to play college hoops since he's a pro talent. Maybe I'm just reading too much into it but, it sure seemed that way to me.

Ceej · 02-07-2006, 10:16 AM

I never said he WOULDN'T be back. I said the way UK has been playing it wouldn't surprise me if he wasn't back the following year. Follow me here.

KU also had a good win @ CU.

UK's win against Louisville was not a good win. That's all there is to that. Again, the way things are shaping up UK is going to have to play lights out the rest of the year or win their conference tournament, which they do 90% of the time.

Missouri Valley should get a bunch of teams in. Be interesting to see how much they get shafted come selection day. I think you could make a case for the Big East and Big Ten getting a bazillion teams in, but it'll be interesting to see if they get shafted for some of the middle of the pack major conference teams.

The Big Ten should get 7 in this year, unless Wisconsin completely tanks the rest of the season because their roster is down to 8 players. The MVC should get 4 teams in this year - Wichita State, Creighton, Northern Iowa and Southern Illinois. The MVC will take spots usually taken by teams from the SEC, PAC 10 and Big 12 due to those conferences being down this year. Plus, last time I checked the MVC's conference RPI was fourth in the nation behind the Big 10, Big East and ACC.

It'll be great to see WSU in the tournament.

And by the way, any win over a rival as big as ours is a big win.
