Students’ halftime exits disappoint Jayhawks

...this is the price you pay when you turn KU Athletics in to nothing more than a professional money making machine. this has happened the past few years at home basketball games at Allen Field House. there are a good number of people that go to the game for the atmosphere, to pay for a weekend activity, and to be a part of a good team. this is the same for both sports. in basketball the same thing happens, because they gave away the lifelong ticket holders (true fans) seats to the highest bidder. those same highest bidder "fans" go to the football games. they go because KU is successful, and they want to be a part of it. they could care less about the actual game or even the team. they worry more about how bad traffic will be after the game. they also worry more about getting tanked at half time, and don't care to come back for the second half because they are too busy relaxing in their coorporate tents....anyway, i'm just trying to cut to the chase, I'm not sure why everyone is trying to over analyze the "fans" when it just is what it is.

Honestly, I've turned down free tickets to games because I'd much prefer to watch the game at home on the big screen in HD...does that make me less of a fan?...NO

Simien retires from pro hoops

Truth, you're an idiot Mizzou fan. Leave the public library computer and get back to your trailer park.

Lets be honest, Wayne is the freakin man.

Don't overlook C.J.'s impact on KU

...point of previous comment, if brady is starting and playing significant minutes because the freshman & sophomores haven't stepped up, it is not a good sign for the 09-10 ku basketball team.

Don't overlook C.J.'s impact on KU

...by "doomed" i meant in ku's standards. we will be good no matter what next year..thats a fact. "doomed" is referring to making it where we want to be in the tourney. if brady & reed are playing significant minutes, then yes we are doomed, as it was proven this year, they tend to fade away as the pressure increases. as i stated before that if they are getting significant minutes it means our young guys are not improving and we have no back up. the most likely scenario is that our new/younger fellas will significantly improve as the year goes on and yes brady & reed will get less minutes, and play their role. if the later happens, we have a chance to win it... and finally, i am not knocking brady or reed. we played brady because he made little mistakes and played good d. other than that, he didn't DO anything! he played because of what he didn't do . he didnt make the mistakes the freshman did, which was a lesser of two evils. i think we all know that brady is not a starter, and for those that say he should be, obviously you must not want ku to win it all. i think that we can all agree we'd rather have starters in there for what they CAN do, instead of what they DON'T do. if we only have players that don't make turnovers and play good D, then we lose every game. when push comes to shove, you need players that can make plays....end of story.

afilmer, you forgot COLE ALDRICH! omg, we're going to be good next year...i do agree, that for us to be good, morningstar and reed need to be playing less minutes...for that to happen, the new guys better be stepping it up. if morningstar or reed get significant minutes, its a sign that we're doomed and our freshman aren't progressing.
