Harris has been good tonight

At this point it is basically self-aware trolling. He knows he has a reputation to maintain.

Better game tonight than the last one. At least they tried for about half the game (you can ignore the first and last 10 minutes).

Yeah tonight was fine. Not bad, not great. Fine.

Felt like we missed a ton of bunnies (Wilson especially). Make those like we should, and this is more like a 30 point win.

I think Baylor loses at Tech on Wednesday. If that happens, we’ll have our 2 game lead back.

Just gotta get to 14-4.

McCormack had himself a game, but I think it's because OSU was complete ****ing ass. That being said, he did some things really right out there. That little baseline spin baby hook was really smooth, efficient and good and will work against good competition.

It would be good for him to build off it for a run.

The problem is that he's had some flashy games here and there, and then bounced backwards to the mostly garbage play he's had all season.

I keep thinking he's going to build off of a good game, but it's mostly just been the same crap.

True. But he's recently found some newfound bravery, as he has been much more blatant than in the past.

Sucks not being able to watch a game without that nonsense going on.

Last night, his play-by-play guy was trying to help him off the hook, but it was awkward as hell.

Not sure I get the issue people have with Fran (its constant on the Phog). He seems pretty complimentary towards KU. I don't think I've ever heard a real explanation as to why KU fans dislike him so much.

He at one time called KU fans "Smug" on a broadcast and he always mentions that they call fouls differently at Allen Fieldhouse than any other home arena - which actually can statistically be disproven. There have been a few statistical analysis that confirm home court of any team they call less fouls on home team and more on the away team, but there is no data that shows KU is at the top of such disparity or even close.

Hasn't lived it down since.

I don't dislike Fran. He's pretty good at his job and certainly has the best knowledge of B12 players (including KU's players) of any analyst ESPN has.

I do think he's been knowingly trolling KU fans somewhat this year, though, probably partially because he gets a lot of shit on Twitter from them. And that does take away from the game call a bit.

This.

The guy knows basketball, and knows the Big 12. Just shut up about the home court bias and KU hate he holds, and keep telling us how Och setting up in the corner is a good sign the alley oop is coming.

I do enjoy Fran’s comparisons to old KU players. I’ve always appreciated that. He definitely has a strong knowledge of the program.

Yeah. Dudes been on a streak of “look out - there it is”. I laugh.
