I appreciate Wade's enthusiasm but there is too much show and too little go.

It's very easy to read this thread and realize who knows anything about basketball and who knows absolutely nothing. I was afraid we would start the year off 0-4 in conference looking at the schedule we had to start. 2-2 in those four games is incredible!!! We had a similar shooting night to Arkansas on our home court. We beat Arky by 20, yet we were in this game with Bama to the end. Was it disappointing? Sure as hell was. But to not be able to see the phenomenal coach that Wade is and the positive uptick in trajectory of the program as a whole is asinine.

Do we need to win our home games? Hell yes we do. But we went on the road to beat aTm for the first time in 3 years then embarrassed Arky on their home court. We lost to UK (who historically always has our number) and Bama. Teams projected in the top half of the conference. We have stuff to work on but anything won this year is lagniappe. Building the culture in preparation for the studs we have coming in next year. Enjoy this year for what it is and get ready to hold him accountable next year!!!

rebounding last night

I was shocked at how physical and strong inside Bama was. The looked better than the three previous SEC teams and yet their record proves otherwise.

I think most experts felt we would be lucky to come out with 1 win. That was a brutal stretch to start conference play.

That you coach Jones?

Seriously, if you think Jones could do as good or better this year, you don't know basketball. Watch the damn games. This team plays nothing like the Jones teams on offense or defense.

Significantly better coaching. And it's day and night.

The players are trying and playing hard. The coaching seems to be a lot of talk and hype. A big show that is not getting the most out of the players. I am pleased with 2-2 but with better coaching we could easily be 3-1.


better coaching? Like who Coach K, Self?

Wade may not be at that level but damn if he isn't in a different stratosphere than ANY of the previous three coaches.... Brady included.

Winning two games away is much better than winning two games at home

Bill Self can't coach his way out of a paper bag. He has a long, long history of underachieving in the Tourney.

Definitely sounds like a man who can't coach his way out of a wet paper bag. I'm sorry but if you win 83% of your college games you can coach.....period. Who are you people?

I know right? He's only won what.... 7 consecutive conference titles?

The mark of a good coach is great defense and seeing consistent improvement throughout the season. Self has had that throughout his time at KU. Day and night from what you'd see from LSU until now. I finally see parallels in on court tenacity.

This team is only going to get better.
