There is always a jerk. Some fool who has to put HCBS down as he takes his team to the elite eight. Some people ought to show a drop of sense and shut their mouths. But then, they don't have a whole drop, so it is outside their capacity.
Great win KU!!! Great win Bill Self!!!
Rock Chalk!

Our maligned defense held them to 36.8% shooting.

The game is over and the Hawks had a tough one. It appeared that SIU did an excellent job on scouting the Jayhawks. When the Hawks tried to double team low, they knew where to throw the ball. Also KU did not play very well on defense, it seemed they were having trouble getting thru the screens and when a switch was made there seem to always be someone open.......but think they will do ok now, was really concerned about this game.

Win I agree everyone has their right to their own opinion but it escapes me how you can actually believe Self is a bad coach? If you are Roy supporter HCBS made to 100 wins at KU faster than Roy.
I do prefer the uptempo game Roy runs better than Self's double-post but that offense is better for the NCAA than run and gun. Some of Roy's teams when forced to grind it out lost to lower seeds. KU losing to Rhode Island and UTEP come to mind. Games we had no business losing, but we were forced into halfcourt games and couldnt figure out how to win. I didnt scream fire Roy when we lost those.
In a one and done format better seeds lose many times. If not, it would be double elimination of 1 seeds basically. Thats what makes March Madness exciting!
HCBS talked all year after we won tough games that we didnt play well that this will help us in the long run. Iowa State in OT comes to mind.
If you win every game by 30 you will have no clue how to function in a close game. We had a big gut-check tonight. RR although not being able to hit a 3 pointer if he was throwing it in the ocean had the toughness to keep playing hard and came up with the game-winning steal. Rush who plays excellent defense 24/7 turned on his offense in the last half of the 2nd half and won our game offensively.
Lastly, SIU is a dang good team. They won the MVC, they play great defense and didnt win 29 games by accident. Also with so many players jumping to the NBA we can expect that major programs will lose more often to mid-majors with a roster full of upperclassmen. As a result the major programs will have hiccups from time to time.

I agree, Self had nothing to do with the poor playing and thinking on the floor. Also nothing to do with the number of free throws missed at the end. Several of these players were all-american in high school, and when they shoot free throws, they seem to be just a little higher than the 6th grade.

Wow. Next time, run 2 seconds off by dribbling out....
Or be aware of the clock and simply toss the ball in the air.
