@bewarephog Yes. Switch him and Melvin and we’re absolutely in the Sweet 16.

If Keaton Wagner were on Kansas would we still be playing?
Jacob Myers@League_Him
Illinois freshman Keaton Wagler passed his toughest test of the season vs Houston in the Sweet 16. The 19-year-old, 6'6" PG carefully dissected hedges, knifed through contact to touch paint, knocked down a trio of triples, fought for rebounds, and was terrific defensively. He finished with 13 points, 12 rebounds, 3 assists, and 3 stocks while committing just 1 turnover. Stirtz and Iowa up next for a spot in the Final Four.

@PeterSchiff Mostly agree but can’t discount the old man is bored and looking for some sort of legacy defining event.

I think Iran knows they can win the war just by surviving long enough for Trump to surrender by claiming the biggest victory in the history of war. They know Trump will ultimately be guided by poll numbers, oil prices, the stock market, and the U.S. economy, not Iran's position.

@RRinehart2012 They paid consultants millions of dollars to recommend a larger mascot, consistent color scheme, and a new font from Microsoft Word. We’re not going back now.

Not saying I want this, just a thought. When KU does hire a new coach at some point. Should they change the mid court logo again?
Kinda think it would be cool if the massive Jayhawk was remembered as the floor for the Self era. No clue what you’d replace it with though.

Kansas/Texas 2003 was as electric as it gets in AFH. How good was @DickieV on the call?

@Royalfan83 @PeterMallouk This. Obama deficits to clean up Bush financial crisis. 75/25 seems accurate. They both spend too much but Dems at least (sometimes) budget for it.
English
@PeterMallouk Not a good analysis. Republicans leave messes for democrats to clean up, start the wars that lead to extreme deficits and cut taxes that exacerbate the problem. Probably a 75/25 issue if we’re being nice to republicans.

Red or Blue, the national debt goes up. The only thing both parties can agree on is sending the bill to future generations. Next stop: $40 trillion.

Lotta words here - but one big one is nowhere to be found, and that word is "No." x.com/TheFieldOf68/s…

Tommy Lloyd on the North Carolina opening 👀 "I already have one of the best jobs in the country. One thing we talk about all the time is the ability to have full focus and be present in the moment... I think we have a chance to advance in this tournament. This team deserves my full focus. There is not one thing that's gonna knock me off that path"

@kboj02 @TheTrueNew Immense Prestige. Historically High Salary. He’ll be forgotten in the front office. He’d have statues made out of him at KU.

Kentucky and UNC think the grass is greener. Hoping Self runs it back one more time. #rockchalk #kumbb

@PeteFiutak It’s definitely broken from a fan/sport/student athlete perspective.
English
Everyone wants to "fix" something that isn't actually broken.
If coaches can come and go as they please, so can players.
Tommy Tuberville@CoachForGov
The transfer portal has screwed up college sports. My bill is simple: you get 5 consecutive years to play 5 seasons and you get 1 transfer. After that, if you transfer again, you sit out a year. This will fix 80% of the issues in NIL today.

@TheTrueNew You gotta make him say no. His talent evaluation is off the charts

I am now team one more year for Bill Self. Farewell tours can be cringeworthy. But he would handle it with class and he deserves the recognition. Blank check for the roster. Go out swinging.

Proves what we already know: Trump doesn’t actually believe any of the conspiracy theories he spews about mail-in voting.
He just wants to make it harder for you to cast a ballot.
NBC News@NBCNews
President Trump cast a mail ballot in an upcoming Florida special election, according to Palm Beach County records, as he publicly condemns the voting method as fraudulent. nbcnews.com/politics/polit…

@jriesgo Spent an hour last night going down the rabbit hole of possible replacements. Stevens turned down 7-70 from Indiana (home state) in 2023. He’s not coming to KU. He and Lloyd would be my top two though.
English
@TheTrueNew Respectfully, I think it’s time man. Brad Steven’s is the guy.
English
@cdotharrison They were 24-6, about to get Caleb Wilson back and go on a run. He gets hurt and Davis is fired less than three weeks later. If this is how they treat their own, why would Golden or Lloyd want to go there?
English
North Carolina paid their coach less than Rutgers but expected to be UConn. I’m shocked that didn’t work out for them. Good luck to his successor.
tonejr42@tonejr421
@cdotharrison I mean he was rightfully fired. The amount of resources that are spent at blue bloods like UNC, it’s sweet 16 (minimum) every year or you’re on the hot seat. That’s the reality you sign up for when you coach there.
English
@Big_carl35 @cdotharrison Turned down $70M to go to Indiana a few years ago. If he won’t go there he’s not going anywhere.
English
@cdotharrison Can we put Brad Stevens as a potential candidate??? A 2nd act in the college ranks to get the natty would be sweet.
English
@TheFreddyD @TheFan965 @cdotharrison When you look at the big picture (buyouts, NIL budgets, etc) he’s more likely than anyone.
English
@TheFan965 @cdotharrison I want no part of Will Wade. Why no one is talking TJ Otzelberger is beyond me.
English
As rumors swirl about the future of Bill Self at Kansas. @cdotharrison wondered if Tommy Lloyd and Dusty May would be coaches who would take the Kansas job.

Zohran has internalized a rule of politics too many Dems have forgotten: You can’t assume people know about the good things you’re doing! You have to tell them about it, over and over again.

@SonoVisuals On it.

If we had an independent oversight agency--like say a Securities and Exchnage Commission--I'd bet they'd look into this!

BREAKING: Just five minutes before Trump's announcement to halt the attacks on Iran, massive trades reportedly hit the market. In one move, $1.5 billion in S&P 500 (ES) futures was bought while $192 million in oil (CL) futures was sold. These orders were 4–6x larger than anything else at the time. The trader seemingly made huge gains. Unusual.

Our national debt is the greatest threat to our national security. The Iran war costs $1-2 billion a day. Farmers need billions to offset tariff losses. Storm damage needs billions more. None of it is paid for. All of it is borrowed. And Washington just keeps spending.

@kboj02 Anywhere top three is fine. Lower some heads will roll.
