Jayhawk fans at the NCAA tournament: 15 seconds of …

By Mark Fagan     Mar 16, 2007

? As the Kansas Jayhawks took low-pressure jumpshots, made run-of-the-mill passes and otherwise jogged across the court Thursday at Chicago’s United Center, other teams elsewhere were busy struggling to survive and advance in this year’s NCAA Tournament.

Or suffer the alternative: Go home.

With the ‘Hawks ticketed to play on the first round’s second night for the fourth consecutive year – this year’s KU opener tips off at 6:10 p.m. Friday – we took the time to direct our ongoing “15 seconds of…” feature toward timing.

So, KU fans, just how do you think playing Friday night affects the team, the fans and others anxious to have their day in March Madness?

We’ve assembled some of their responses here, in our homage to Andy Warhol’s famous observation that everyone gets 15 minutes of fame.

For our continuing run of “15 seconds of…” slide shows, we asked some of the hundreds of KU followers gathered for the Big 12 Tournament in Oklahoma City to go ahead and brag about themselves.

The question: What makes it so that Kansas fans can lay claim to the title of the World’s Greatest Fans?

With apologies to Andy Warhol, here it is again: 15 seconds of… claim.
