Rock Chalk Jayhawks!!!!!!!!
because at the end of the day, they still are the Chicago Cubs, and they will figure out a way to screw this whole thing up--Marty B.
I feel like I just ran a marathon. I'll sleep like a baby tonight.
Thank you, Mario, for stepping up when no one else could. Billy Packer was a little premature with his "shot of the tournament" call.
Sherron Collins, man, you've got a lot of growing up to do, but thank you for putting your boneheaded plays behind you and icing the game at the free throw line.

Outstanding game last night....but now it will be long day today. I am still sleepy.
Congrats Johnny. If there was one team I wanted to see win it all it was Kansas. There really is no star on the team, they just all play together.
Dorsey should have been rang up with a technical after he chestbumped Aldrich/Kahn after the dunk. I could see not calling CDR slamming the ball out of frustration, but why they didn't on Dorsey is beyond me.
I wonder if this will hurt Derrick Rose's draft stock. He was projected as a top two pick. It might not hurt it much, but Bayless and Mayo could challenge him.
Did anybody else see the tribute to Keightley in the "One Shining Moment" video?
BTW, I have a feeling that Self will take the Oklahoma State job. I know he turned it down earlier in the press, but he has nothing more to accomplish at Kansas. If he left, it wouldn't be near the sting of Roy Williams, even though he would have to make an annual trek to Lawrence every year.
If that happened, then the Billy Gillispie to Kansas rumors would start, which makes more sense than the OSU rumors.
Nothing like making your choice after the fact....

Very good game last night. I picked Memphis to win but their achilles heel came back to bite them in the rear at the end of regulation. I bet Douglas-Roberts and Rose feel pretty bad right about now and it's sad. They are both very good players.
Who's going to start the Bill Self to OSU countdown thread?

There was an intentional foul by Rose (I think), who lost the ball to Brandon Rush, then undercut him as Rush went up for the layup in the game's opening minutes.Dorsey should have been rang up with a technical after he chestbumped Aldrich/Kahn after the dunk. I could see not calling CDR slamming the ball out of frustration, but why they didn't on Dorsey is beyond me.
There was a ridiculously flagrant intentional foul in the closing minutes of overtime as well. Sherron Collins threw a cross-court pass, and long after the ball was gone, a Memphis player ran up and shoved Collins with two hands in the chest. I know, "the refs will never call that in a close game," but still, come on. He nearly punched Collins in the chest.
Thanks. I was lucky enough to watch the 1988 KU/Oklahoma game, and I rooted for Kansas, but I didn't have the connection to the school back then that I do now. The Jayhawks went twenty years with incredibly talented teams that just fell short. This one was special, though. They learned, adjusted, and grew up. What a fantastic feeling!
Congrats, Johnny!

WV, Billy G's not going to KU. It actually made more sense--if you can call it that--that he would go to OSU b/c of Boone Pickens. No way he leaves UK for KU.
