I’ve watched KU basketball for years and they’re almost always really good…
Now they’re GREAT!
I think this is the best overall squad KU coach Bill Self has ever coached.
This team is dynomite, explosive and fast.
The 3 point shots come from everywhere, all the time – and they hit!
KU has likely player of the year Frank Mason and likely NBA No. 1 or 2 pick Josh Jordon.
What impresses me most is this team’s fearlessness.
They will shoot the 3 at the end of a game without hesitation or passing the ball. This Kansas team deserves to be ranked No. 1 in the nation and they ARE the No. 1, No. 1 seed for March Madness.
Kansas has been a one seed six times in the last 10 years, a number two seed three times and a number three seed once.
KU has the most conference wins in NCAA history with 60.
They fall short on championships – national championships.
With all that noise KU’s only been in the Final Four twice in the last decade under Bill. This feels like Bill’s year though and he could win it all. That said, it does take a bit of luck.
Funny, I don’t feel KU will win the Big 12 tournament.
Here’s why: it doesn’t matter much, just pride for them. I can see them losing to Baylor or West Virginia or even Iowa State in the finals. Their eye is on the big prize, NATIONAL CHAMPS.
It should be, they are the best out there today.
Bill Self will go into the Hall of Fame in April and hopefully get to this year’s Final Four. KU’s earned it.
Brilliant analysis. Predictable drivel from a bandwagon “gambler”.
At least I am a gambler who wins loser Rich…I’ve never been a bandwagon guy on any team…Chiefs, Royals or KU…hey I just think these guys have it…we’ll see.
CG, it might be one of Self’s better “teams”, but nowhere near the best KU team. Not even close.
That short bench and gawd awful free-throw shooting will eventually doom this team. But, they have had a fabulous year to date. No question.
Frank Mason III could/should be national POTY. One of the best seasons that any ‘Hawk has ever had. Pretty special.
Fee throws and defense have improved a ton the last month, also they do have a bench, those who come in WIN..simple as that…I like their chances.
KU’s ranked somewhere around 308th this year in bench minutes. So yeah – technically they DO have a bench…..
….That hardly ever plays.
Lance I’ve heard that all year…then why when KU brings in a back-up do they play so well, no they don’t have a bunch, but those who play…do well, again THIS IS the best overall team Bill has taken to the dance…I expect them to go to final four… I’ve seen Gonzaga, Villanova, and UCLA, KU is better….we’ll see…they play NBA style, run and gun…fast…no fear…I like it…don’t you.
CG,
It’s Josh Jackson not Jordon. I think 97 team was best. Jacques Vaughn, Raef LaFrentz, Scott Pollard, Jerod Haase, and Paul Pierce. You’re right that it takes a lot of luck. Hope they get some this year.
That was a very good squad, fell short…but very good.
Glazer, how can anyone take you seriously after you said in a previous story that Trump has lowered the unemployment rate to its lowest point in 40 years and he did it all in 40 days. Idiot. The statistics released were from last year and that’s Obama’s accomplishment.
Bad breath Bob…I read about the unemployment rate…sorry….as for 105th and Denny’s Metcalf, nice folks take comics there for breakfast once in while….I’m sure nobody there had anything bad to say bout me…you must have been cleaning the restroom and saw me come in once…good job on the toilets.
Believe what you want whore patron.
KU loses in the Sweet 16.
Word you never know….
Bad breath Bob, a hater with another fake name…we love it…I am in the public a ton, and nobody is anything but nice to me, save you, but I don’t know who you are or care.
Perhaps you are just a fool? Perhaps you are absorbed in your own narrative, which is confusing as you don’t seem to know what you want to be. You conduct yourself like a Middle School boy trying to prove he’s the coolest/toughest kid in homeroom. Could be the testosterone pills, or maybe it’s just you never grew out of your peacock stage in life.
Dick you again! Look none of these stories are about ME. They are on KU or the Chiefs, Royals etc….so whats your hate bout now? Oh I’m a kid trying to be cool and tough, ok. Well I already did that Dick. Now its your turn to try and be a ‘somebody’…use your real name first clue.
Gosh Glazer, nothing on the site says I can’t hate on you and it sure doesn’t say I have to use my name. It also says my email address won’t be used but that’s obviously not the case if I tell you what I think. Apparently, Hearne gives you free rein with his website which is his prerogative. Its sure ok for you to insult me, calling me “bad breath Bob”, but I guess this is what happens if somebody dislikes you and lets you know. No, I do not know you but I have read plenty about you over the years and have heard and seen you interviewed and read your posts on here. I, along with others think you are an arrogant jerk. I won’t be the least bit surprised if this comment isn’t published.
You don’t agree, fine, you don’t like me fine, but to continue to hate and make comments about NOTHING, this story had nothing to do with me and most don’t…as you say YOU DON’T KNOW ME, NEVER MET ME…so maybe you should not attack someone you don’t know…and over and over and over….I don’t do that…enough on this either don’t comment here or be a bit more adult with your comments….there are others here who don’t like me or don’t ever agree, like Lance the INtern, but he’s not so hateful and mean…and makes up stories etc…that’s fine.
I want my email address taken down. You have made your point.
I have also agreed to never post at 5 his site again. What more do you want?
Ahhhhh, Craig, that’s way out of line…..
Paul…you told me that Harley was banned from the site. I sure thought that before my email address was published that I would be blocked as you said he was. At the very least I thought Glazer would contact me first since he had access to my email address. He not only posted my email address but edited out remarks that I made within the post. I can’t get in touch with Hearne because the “Contact” link does not work. I admit I have used different names and been harsh and have agreed to never post again but its still posted here. Pretty thin skin for a bigshot like Glazer
Paul, as with Harley, and maybe this is him, but I don’t think so…like you I’ve had it with haters on here who hate as he admits for no reason. I don’t know him never met him etc…as he says…he just kept going so I thought I would let him know its NOT OK…to lie. Hating or disliking someone for what they write, well ok to some extent just say why you don’t agree etc…we’ve been through this…hey sometimes its fun, but when it gets into you smell, you are a whore, people at some place hate you and said so…all lies and I’m tired of it.
Anyone who puts their words out to the public should be well prepared to have them misunderstood.
Publishing an email address as you have done is petty and vicious.
If you can’t take the heat best to get out of the kitchen.
Fake name rant coming in one, two…
Take the email down. CG, you are better than that. I have been to your club, it is run very well, and very professionally. Never had a bad time there. What BBB said is mean, yes, but putting his email out there could actually draw the wrong people to him and put him in jeopardy. To far and a classes act. Again, you are better than that. I understand you are tired of the hate. They are just words. With your life experiences, words should not be bothering you. You have been through much worse. Take down the e-mail.
I’ve asked Hearne to do so…but man, all those continues hate comments and lies and one email address has me the bad guy…oh well…take it down, fine with me.
It’s already down
CG, like I said, you can handle it. Just think of what you have been through, these comments are nothing. People are always going to hate. Always. Sad but true. Don’t become them. Then they win.
Mr. Glazer, do you want an apology before you will take my email address down? Please contact me via email if so.
Take the email address down.
No one else who posts here and wants anonymity is exposed.

I have been to Glazer’s club too and we all laughed our azzes off.
But, no one else, that I know of, has had their email address posted against their wishes.
I am all for commenting and letting the world know they can just shove it up where the sun don’t shine it they don’t like it.
But posting email addresses against the wishes of the commenter seems in bad form to me.
+1
OK Hearne please take down the email address. By the way I did intentionally drop a letter and a number on each one…but still take them down if its that big a deal…look Bad Bob, I see those emails on other names besides this one…so I see its you on several of the hate mails over and over… just don’t be so hateful, comment on the story if you don’t agree thats fine…simple as that…
So you’re the f*ckin’ moderator now, Glazer? Has Hearne for some insane reason appointed you the final say on what gets posted as a comment to this site?
Go f*ck yourself. I’m done.
No Lance Hearne does all the moderation…now you tell me to go f myself…nice of you.
Mr. Glazer, please don’t blame all the hate on me. I have posted on this site I think on 4 different occasions and only in the last 30 days. I have used about 4 different monikers. There have been plenty of people hating on your for years so please don’t blame it all on me because that’s NOT EVEN close to accurate. I do appreciate your taking my email address down and I am certainly going to be careful about what I say to you in the future. Again, I have not even been close to hating on you over and over and over so please stop being disingenuous.
As for Kansas yesterday…. well as I said the Big Twelve Tournament was on their list of must wins, however losing to a TCU in round one even without Josh was a bit sad…and now they don’t play for a week or so…it also ended the interest in the tournament with no MU and a weak K-State….Westport will pull for Iowa State who brings huge crowds to KC and hangs there….so hope they do well.
nobody cares about your way-off base sports takes, coke-head. Improv really kicking your ass when it comes to 2017 bookings! They got Joey Diaz you got Fake Chippendales!
BTW, a little off topic but it seems since TJ Carpenter was let go a few months ago 810 have completely ignored the SEC. Sure they will give out a Missouri tidbit here or there. But for the most part the SEC has been ignored.
Understandable since it’s basketball season. Even though IMO the SEC is underrated in basketball. It will be interesting to see if this happens in the fall too during football season.
Little kk pretty much alienated the entire Mizzou fanbase during the realignment saga. No self respecting Mizzou fan that I know of listens to 810 anymore.
I still prefer 810 over 610 because I don’t like Millennial/white guilt radio disguised as sports talk. I might tune in to the 2-6 show now that Nick Wright and Danny Parkins are long gone.
But my fear is other then MU the SEC will be forgotten by 810, even during football season were the SEC is king. I have a feeling I’ll tune into the station and KK, Danny and Leabo will go on and on about a Iowa St. Vs. Texas Tech game and it’s implications to the Big 12 standings. But wont mention Georgia Vs. Florida or even Alabama Vs. LSU.
To answer the questions: I do not do anything but write on this site..Hearne does all else. So Lance sorry you are upset, but hey buddy you have had your share of atacks and hate yourself on ne and others…so who is thin skinned now? As for taking down email addresses thats up to Hearne, fine with me…I don’t care.
Again easy to dish out huh, but boy someone gets exposed and sure can’t take it. Again you haters send hate not me…I attack nobody unless attacked and then not as much as I could cause you are not real…simple as that.
There will be no more emails published
Mr. Glazer, please don’t blame all the hate on me. I have posted on this site I think on 4 different occasions and only in the last 30 days. I have used about 4 different monikers. There have been plenty of people hating on your for years so please don’t blame it all on me because that’s NOT EVEN close to accurate. I do appreciate your taking my email address down and I am certainly going to be careful about what I say to you in the future. Again, I have not even been close to hating on you over and over and over so please stop being disingenuous about it. Please check my statistics so you can see I am telling the truth. To the best of my knowledge the first time I ever posted was in early February. I guess I happened to be the tipping point but what happened was unexpected. In any event my email address is down now so I will feel free to post here with your permission and will moderate my remarks appropriately.
Well thats fine. Maybe this will help comments to be more on stories and not so much on the writer. I’m fine with that.
Maybe…
But not because Craig will be allowed to attempt to out anybody again
Hey sports fans predicting outcomes of games is a tough racket right! Others have tried here to show me they can do it, nobody was very good at it, right. Remember this years super bowl, I broke it down before the game, called the score and that was close and called the winner and was right…give me some credit folks..I’m not always right,, nobody is…
How does my story look now? KU is nearly unstoppable. Its their tournament.
