Bye-week reprieve gives KU time to heal

First off: Get well Coach Fambrough! Hope you are feeling great real soon.

Dugan,

It looks like you have decided to use Mizzou's records for the all time series. I have not been one to get all over you for simply being a Mizzou grad, but KU disputes that record and says they lead the all-time series. I find it interesting you just went with the Mizzou side on the records and at least did not even bother to mention both sides.

I watched the Border War special tonight, and even long time KC Star / Mizzou beat writer, and alum Mike DeArmond, acknowledged KU whipped Mizzou on the field in that contested 1960 game, and would have very likely done so with or without Bert Coan. The KU D held MU without a first down till late in the third quarter. I think the final was 23 -7.

Anyway...hope the boys are ready. Happy Thanksgiving everyone and go KU!

biggee,

I do not have a problem with Self targeting certain one and done players. I never said I was against it so don't use that on me.

We had several stretches of the game where we led, and you guys scrapped back to take the lead. The game is 40 minutes long regulation. We did enough and did more than Memphis when it counted. The Hawks were clutch, and unfortunately for you Memphis was not. Memphis is still a heck of team and was a great opponent, but do not denigrate our Championship with spin and excuses or you look like the sore loser you were calling some on here. You should be better than representing Memphis that way.

Congrats on Xavier. Wanted him but he is Memphis's player now. X-Man should be a wonderful talent. Said many times I wanted him. I also wanted D. Rose but we bounced back from that missed recruit too.

The only fact that really matters: Kansas 75 - Memphis 68

Biggee,

Props on landing Xavier. Would have loved to have him as I posted above I cheered for his Dad, Carl, and loved his overall game. Xavier looks to be the same type of player.

I think your comment about KU fans being sore losers has a little "Pot calling the kettle black" irony to it. You followed up that with, "if not for a Memphis meltdown, and a desperate heave at the end of the championship game, we are looking a double here".

That comment has some sore loser excuse making if you ask me. Last I checked college basketball games are 40 minute regulation games. KU rallied and put itself in position to win the game. KU made more plays and therefore scored more points to win the Championship. Sorry you want to call it a meltdown, but don't come on here calling people sore losers and then spinning a meltdown and giving KU no credit in the Championship.

Again, congrats on Xavier. I am sure he will be a tremendous player.

Rock Chalk Championship!

Would have loved to have Xavier become a Jayhawk as I cheered for his dad Carl rockin' the crimson and blue back in the day. He had a great total floor game.

I think Calipari pulled a sly move getting his brother CJ when his status was unclear as a baseball player and that swung the deal.

I really think the start of the KU school year starting two weeks before Memphis hurt us in getting CJ. He decided in late August to go back to school and the Hawks were already 10 days into practicing and getting ready to board a plane for the Canada trip.
You have to wonder if all things were close to equal if CJ thought I can go to Memphis and still have time to unpack and get ready for the year and not be behind all my teammates with practice. Just always been my feeling. CJ played a huge part setting this decision in motion.

I wish them all luck. Carl and Barbara are good Jayhawks. It was a lot easier for the family to all follow the sons once they were in Memphis. We lost this battle when Memphis got CJ to go there as he was driving home from a tough minor league season. Props to Memphis. Good luck to the Henrys. It does hurt that the timing may have cost us with Snaer and some of these other guys.

We are still Kansas so Rock Chalk and I'll be cheering on the Jayhawks! Rock Chalk Champions!

Meier, Sharp could miss MU-KU game

Need em both. Get your rest, treatments, and get well boys! We need all the brave Jayhawks we can get to step up and do battle with those Tigers.

Kansas not content with half dozen wins

Keep fighting Hawks. KU fans believe and want so much more! There is so much more to accomplish. The #1 job right now is to make it happen in Lincoln and win against Nebraska. It will be a great atmosphere and we are experienced playing on big stages now. Get it done and WIN!

Keegan: Game at NU is huge

This is an absolutely HUGE game for the Hawks.

Need to be rock solid in all three phases of play with defense, offense, and special teams. Time to get it done in Lincoln. It is time!
