Ben McCollum been to Pizza Shuttle?

Example of how hard it is to win in March. Bill Self since 2022: - Missed second weekend 4 of 5 years. - Won National Title Todd Golden since 2022: -Missed second weekend 4 of 5 years. -Won National Title

The Heir.

I can’t even imagine what life as a KU bball fan would look like without Bill Self as the head guy & I’m terrified to find out. Some of the greatest memories of my life have came from his 23 years here

Florida HC Todd Golden on missing the Sweet 16: “It sucks, man. Sixteen is usually right in my wheelhouse.”

mccollum to the e8 and has an offense that would be fun to watch

Ben McCollum has to be Travis Goff’s first call if/when Bill Self calls it a career. Incredible just how good of an in game coach that guy is.

This is Houston’s equivalent of 2017 Kansas’ meltdown against Oregon, isn’t it? Heavy regional favorites and the path to the Final Four is literally in your hometown?

That missed-rebound-turned-dagger-three as the hometown crowd roars was the most Oregon-against-Kansas-in-the-Sprint-Center moment yet. A total stake to the heart.

Midwest regional is back in KC next year. Imagine Bill coming back for one last ride, and making his 5th Final Four in front of a massive Kansas crowd. Avenging the Elite 8 loss in KC in 2017

i’m gonna do this even though iowa lost but mccollum’s style is fun as hell to watch • good ball movement/spacing • shoots threes and makes them at a good clip • calls players soft • midwest guy • has won everywhere he’s been at • can recruit here unlike at iowa

KU’s head coaches & age when hired James Naismith 37 Forrest Allen 22 William Hamilton 33 Dick Harp 38 Ted Owens 34 Larry Brown 42 Roy Williams 37 Bill Self 40 Average age of 35…..

2008 Kansas is the most underrated champion of the last 25 years. They are one of the 3-5 best teams we’ve seen in college hoops since 2000 but never get talked about like that. -KenPom: #1 Def #2 Off -37-3 -Won the toughest F4 of all time.

Duke was up NINETEEN. A total, complete meltdown. The final shot was unbelievable, but it never should have gotten to that point. What an all-time collapse. One of the most brutal losses in the history of the NCAA tournament!

Hoping this Final 4 blowout erases people memory of what Villanova did to KU in the 2018 Final 4.

You can take the Big 12 away from Kansas, but they must bear a curse to repeat the same mistakes in March.
