JIMBO's!!!!

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Mar 22, 2007 -> 01:37 AM) DeAndre Thomas to Indiana: http://blogs.suntimes.com/preps/2007/03/fo...yer_of_the.html That back to back period of 2004 and 2005 with Brockand Thomas winning CPL POY was an all time low point for the city in terms of basketball. Thomas is a fat ass, too short for his postion, and has a horrible attitude, however this is a move that shows why Sampson gets it and Weber doesn't in recruiting. Thomas will only be at IU 2 years and ride the bench, but the fact IU even took him will build good feelings with the CPL, and help in the future for Indiana. I agree with you on OJ's final move, but at him being the best player in his class. He peaked in about 10th grade, and is the 3rd best GUARD, at best, in this class. I think he'll be pretty good, but nowhere near the level his hype was once at. DeAndre was heavily pursued by KU and Mizzou, good pickup by IU.

QUOTE(ChWRoCk2 @ Mar 21, 2007 -> 10:57 AM) Kanasas is too much of an offensive team for SIU to handle. Granted SIU has great defense they havent seen this kind of offense they are about to play all year, closest thing they saw was prolly Butler. Honestly, SIU on offense, they look lost lol, its horrible to watch, its like your pick up games in public gyms. Their defense is going to have to win them the game here and have a hot hand shooting. Rock Chalk will be fine. Sorry had to restore confidence in you to jynx kansas because i got siu winning lol. 1 word for you Bradnell. that is bradley and bucknell, we seem to have a problem with mid majors.

I dont think my team has any chance, im being realistic. The team cannot play well under pressure.

QUOTE(Rex Hudler @ Mar 20, 2007 -> 07:04 PM) Jimbo pulling out all the stops with his best Lou Holtz impersonation. Very impressive, Jimbo! I dont get it.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Mar 20, 2007 -> 02:56 PM) Stop trying your reverse jinx crap. If we do indeed win on Thursday, I wouldn't give you a hard time, I can tell you that for sure. no reverse jinx, KU sucks versus smaller, faster teams. hell, Dartmouth out rebounded us.

QUOTE(Soxbadger @ Mar 20, 2007 -> 01:52 PM) Nah the difference is that for the last 2 weeks Wisconsin has felt that they dont need to show up for the first half and can just come out and turn it on at any moment. As for where I have been... Personal situation, you can ask Jimbo I havent been around other places that have nothing to do with NCAA basketball. I didnt even watch most of the game on Sunday, because in the end it was just a basketball game. I also dont think that the Big 10 did anything to prove that they were not one of the top 3 conferences. Purdue, Indiana, and MSU all played well. Wisconsin played flat and lost, they didnt rotate well to the open shooter at the end of the game and a guy for UNLV hit a big shot. Also Tucker went cold from the FT line, where he had been doing well. All in all it sucks, but ah well such is life. I can confirm that Badger was not around...we usually talk a few times a day. I happen to not agree with him on alot, but he is as smart and well rounded as a poster as they come. I was just trying to give him a hard time, as SIU fans will give me when they beat KU on Thurs.

Jayhawk fans know one thing.........heartbreak. sorry

QUOTE(watchtower41 @ Mar 20, 2007 -> 10:28 AM) Beating a team with 20+ wins and the toughest schedule in the country isnt somebody? to be honest, as a kansas fan, i dont care who they played, its nice to see at least 2 victories this year.

good hire for illinois state. You can cancel any mid level recruits for the illini from their own state. Jacque Vaughn will take his place on the KU bench.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Mar 19, 2007 -> 03:02 PM) You guys are on the far inferior side of the bracket IMO, and I think your guards and wings would overwhelm Florida, so if you survive UCLA in Cali, I think you'll be in the same game you were in in 2003. Actually our bigs beat up florida the first time around. If we get to the finals, which we wont...hide all white point guards and freshamn named Carmelo.

agreed, patton does get quality players and he may be able to work his own pipeline into chicago.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Mar 19, 2007 -> 01:54 PM) Hiding because of how stupid all his Big 10 and Wisconsin trash talk looks right about now. He shouldn't hide though, people like me say dumber things than that and come back for more. I run my mouth during the season, but say a peep during the tourney...KU always CHOKES anyways.

Soxbadgers, where you at?

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Mar 19, 2007 -> 09:37 AM) Who are you and what have you done with Jimbo? BTW, salukitalk.net welcomes opposing team fans, as long as you keep the talk sensible. Come on down if you are curious. As I said, good luck and im proud of both these teams. The only thing I will say is I knew the jayhawks would outlast Bucky.

Try being a kansas fan...im having a freaking heart attack on every possesion. I really wish i went to a school like anchorage alaska, so i never saw bbball.

Good luck, let the best team win. Jimbo is taking a stoic approach to the tourney.

hmmm

Heads, look what we got here, a little Kansas v. Iowa State 10 years later. Floyd v. Deputy Dawg.

You guys have all valid points. I dont know if that guy to U of A is true, but recruits seem to use Weber to boost their rankings and then screw him in the end.

yay kansas won a damn first round game

Well thanks Dee and Deron. Coaching changes are tough, Miles and Langford did not listen to Self when he first got here, and were loyal to Roy.

wow erstad is having a good spring

I love the fact that we can avoid the Thome strikout vs. Lefties.
