He’s only lost 2 first round games and only 4 second rd games since 2004. If that’s being bounced early I’ll take it.

Also, had a really nice team in 2006 with Randy Foye that lost to UF in the Elite 8

That’s what I mean by it being disgusting. They don’t need them

Very boring game overall. No change of a comeback.

How come people always shite on Bob Stoops for winning the Big 12 every year and falling short in big games while giving Bill Self and Kansas a pass when they do the same in college basketball?


People do, but Self has won a NC, been runner up and has 3 final 4s

That's a highly accomplished basketball coach

Kansas is widely known as the team that always chokes in the tourney.

You never know. They were getting hammered by Kentucky in 2012 final. Then cut it to a 5 point lead or so with 2 minutes left. But only if Villanova goes ice cold from 3.

Villanova can go inside and out. That is what makes them scary

Whoever the black guy is on the nova telecast just "corrected" himself to get the grammar wrong. "7 guys have hit, or rather 7 guys has hit 3s."

Nova can actually score in a variety of ways. They just prefer the three.

Stoops has also won a title and been a runner up 2 other times. So they both are on equal footing in my mind.

Just think they haven’t even put their fun group out there yet. They go 5 guards it’s like a Chinese Fire Drill

We we're talking about blue blood interest not avg school

In his first 14 years he
- Missed tournament 4x
- Bounced before Sweet16 6/10 including multiple great seeds

That isn't getting you blue blood first choice calls



He clearly is a great coach, but he moved into the top tier coach category only recently

It’s a testament to Kansas that this game isn’t a laugher yet.

Wasn’t like Steve Lappas left him anything. He got to NCAA at Drexel. Once he rebuilt it, which is why I took 2004.

Nova’s big men are the best shooters in the tournament. You can’t leave anybody open for a second.
