Honestly, I don't think it's the games that burn them out, right? I think Bill Self must like to run his players into the ground during practices.

that bogged down the game. It was a great game but could have been better without the constant ref whistles.

The counter argument is the whistles are all about getting back to a more fluid game where defenders can't just grab and push instead of actually defending.

Bullshit. They single handedly ruined the game. So many touch fouls. So many bullshit calls. Both ways. 50 fouls.

I'm just saying the goal is letting skill players make plays without getting bumped and pulled by defenders that have been beaten, which ultimately benefits teams like KU that have an athleticism advantage against most teams year after year.

Or how about just not foul, like the rules state?

The refs always have an agenda at the beginning of the year to officiate a certain way and look for specific things. Then as the year progresses refs push that stuff aside and we see them letting players play through contact. Anyways, the best part of that game last night wasn't the win. Its the fact josh jackson decided to take that game over on the offensive end for a stretch by realizing he can get to the basket at will.

I was back and forth on the incessant whistles last night and Bilas was trying to defend the refs and I could see his points. There needs to be a better way of eliminating some of the rough stuff and not randomly throwing in a 'ticky tack' touch fouls that slow/stop the game. I guess I understand the need to clamp down, but it sure made the game last night hard to watch.

That was very exciting. I hadn't been able to catch any of the exhibition. The first game I saw was against Indiana. The first thing I thought was that the guy may have been overhyped. After last night, I now see why he was the top recruit (or 2nd recruit if you go by ESPN's list).

Jackson's free throw shooting is a concern, though.
