They’ve been badly underachieving as a program for many years now. Too bad for you guys that you’re stuck with him. No way he is getting bought out for over 30M.

Self is arguably the best coach in the sport, but Kansas hasn’t made it out of the first weekend four of the last five tournaments (during that time he also has a championship).

K lost to a 14 and 15 2 out of 3 seasons at Duke a little more than a decade ago. Shit happens.

Many? More like the last 4 full seasons. Well, 3 of the 4. I think they actually over performed in 2022-2023.

Hunter's probably not leaving.
Dajuan's not leaving
KJ's not leaving and he'll start
Hopefully Furphy would rather improve his game at KU than the G League.

The answer like KCC has said is shooters. We need a couple of 3 pt shooting wings.

Incoming we have Rakease Passmore as a 4* SF. Can't say I know much about him he's the #42 ranked player in the nation #10 SF. Also have Labaron Philon, #32 player, #3 PG. And then of course Flory Bidunga, #10 and #3 Center.

Not sure the incoming class really has what we need unless Passmore is a marksman.

ahem...

They always conveniently forget the 2020 title.

There wasn’t a tournament in 2020.

This can be the wimmen's thread. Beat USC!

Check who finished on top of the AP and Coaches Polls that year.

I don’t follow women’s college basketball, but I have to imagine that would be the biggest upset in program history.

I am using 2020-2021 as the start of tangible decline of Kentucky’s performance. The year in which Kentucky had literally their worst season in program history.

2019-2020 wasn’t during that time frame, hence why I did not include that season.

Last 4 tournament losses under Bill: 16, 14, 34, 21. That's a problem...

He won the championship two years ago, missed the tournament following heart surgery last year, and then had his best player opt out of the tournament to protect his draft stock this year.

Context matters.

Not sure there's some smoking gun to all of this though... they were on a great Final Four run before everything went wrong against Villanova while Villanova couldn't miss a shot. They had no depth this year and then lost their leading scorer.

I mean, they've also been one of the best teams in the country three times in that stretch. :shrug:

If we didn't have '22 to look back on I might be more upset about this.

But we do, and that matters a lot.
