Svi is an example of someone who might have needed the 4 years in college to figure it out. At worst, he's a niche player who can make threes

He’s a ridiculously good catch & shoot guy at the college level. He can have a nice career in the league doing that.

He came to Kansas as a 16 year old so it's not surprising. Crazy thing is that he's only 20 years old as a senior so he has options when it comes to choosing to put his name in the draft or even going back overseas.

I think he's absolutely a first rounder given that he has youth AND experience. Helps that he has physical advantages as a wing.

As long as Bruce is safe, this program next year is gonna be fukking incredible. I would say our Alabama loss, the loss today, the USC loss, were all attributed to height related bullshyt, and depth issues. The A&M Loss was complete fukking ref ball.

The big depth between that 4 star we got, Chuma, Wiley, Spencer and McLemore is going to be INCREDIBLE.

seniors like he and grayson allen should be late first rounders and have 8-10+ year careers just off their ability to hit catch and shoot/spot up 3's from distance, especially as they both have quick releases in tight windows. Especially allen who can be lightning quick on his release.

He's had terrible senior season and doesn't deserve to be drafted in the first round

fukking stupid turnover after stupid turnover, we should've won that game by double digits. marvin is still terrible defensively even in the zone and doesn't know how to play within a team offense. refs were also horrendous, but this is mostly on allen and everyone else for the dumb turnovers late in the game Now to coach K. why were we playing stall ball so early? team got out of rhythm offensively. WHY THE fukk was duval in at he end of the game when we knew we were going to get fouled and have to shoot 1 and 1? And then WHY THE fukk did marvin pass to trevon in that situation instead of waiting for grayson or trent to get free? just poor poor decision making from the coach and the players.

KU won their 14th straight big 12 title tonight:blessed:.

Even though this was the least talented KU team since the turn of the century.
Even though this was the best big 12 in a long time (best conference in the nation).
Even though we weren't leading the league and had to chase.
Even though we lost 3 games at the Phog:mjcry:. We still got it done:ahh:

Oh and Duke lost:lolbron:

Eta: Bill Self has to win coach of the year for the magic he pulled this year.

Self really needs to win another chip. He’s done a good job in the reg season with this team tho.

Oh and the BIG12 is definitely the best conference this year. To think there were serious talks about dismantling the conference for football purposes a few years ago :snoop:
