Great job

Congrats guys.

What a season. So happy for Self and the boys.

Well done boys! Hang 2 banners!!!

Wow, Great second half! Great win, so happy for those guys!

I would like to publicly apologize to Christian Braun for what I posted when I was mad

What a comeback! Great job guys!!

Did Ochai just have the second best season in Kansas history? Behind Manning in ‘88.

How’s my home boys doing? Rock and rolling down here.

I'd probably take Rio's 08 season. He was ****ing nasty.

Or...If como is around, he's behind Sasha Kaun in 08.... :p

Mario wasn’t even first team all conference though

Loved that game, congrats!

I’m most happy for KCCC with the reverse mojo all postseason. :p

Give credit where credit is due. I watched the first half on TBS and then switched to TNT at halftime. You’re welcome.

My 7 year brother tuned into the game down 38-23 and is now a Jayhawk for life. This is what it’s all about.

When are we getting started on the statue? Take a bow, Bill, and take a bow Remy ****ing Martin.

What a ****ing season. So happy for Bill Self.

This is incredible.

I'm going to have some ****ing crow on DMac. That ****ing dude. He really isn't all that good, has a history of being soft in the post, and has a foot injury. And that dude went and got his all ****ing tournament long. Dude deserves whatever good vibes he gets. That was a ****ing performance. Even after Bacot got him a few times, he gave no ****s and just went and got his.

Same with Braun. Dude played a **** half, and then came out and showed some heart and went after fools.

Remi is incredible. After the year he had, to come out with the confidence he did took giant ****ing balls.

Harris, for all the shit he took when Remi came back on fire, probably took a lot of gumption to stay facing forward.

Ochai is never going to be the Kemba Walker type but he made plays. Dude is my guy.

600 year old lightfoot. Lightfoot!

Wilson, for as bad as he started the year, was really a lynchpin, especially defensively. Made a lot of really outstanding plays down the stretch.

My guys. Not a ton of talent floating around, but they won...The whole ****ing thing.

Dude did Yeoman's work all tournament long.

What a freaking season. This team came a long, long way.

They played like Champions.

#1 with a Bullet, Never thought I would say that watching this team all year.

They came a long, long way in the course of the game as well as the season. I don't remember another KU team doing what these guys did a couple of times in this tourney: play like ass, then turn on the afterburners to come back and win. These guys are kinda like the 2019 Chiefs: like tongive up an early lead in the playoffs to make it a bit more interesting. ;)

Plow Pablo.

Get up and enjoy this.

It's ****ing incredible.

And all the props in the world, because they hit a ****ing wall after a good start in the first half, but came out of the locker room like it never happened.

We talked all season about how this wasn’t a “good Kansas team”.

Obviously, we were wrong. This is a hell of a team. 5 legit scoring threats. A few great role players. A super scrappy point guard. Experience. Energy. Just a great team.

As far as Self teams go, this is one of the best. ‘08 and ‘20 were clearly better. After that, this team is right there. ‘07, ‘10, and ‘17 were more talented, but clearly had flaws that were exposed. Can’t say that about the 2022 team…THE National Champion Kansas Jayhawks.

Enjoy it. We’ve lost some tough ones over the years, but not tonight. Rock Chalk.

I'm still shocked, not sure how we won it but we played with the heart of a champion and never gave up.

I was very disappointed at times the way we were playing cuz I always thought we was a top five team. Problem we just wasn't playing like it.

Best coach in college basketball and with K done and gone for good it's not even close. Never want to hear anybody doubt this guy ever again.

He just stepped into that other level of NCAA basketball coaches all time. 2 titles is really incredible.

He’ll get at least 1 or 2 more if he stays here.

He’s also going to be a master of the transfer portal. No one scouts like he does.

Great thread, thread starter

I think you could argue there were 5 KU teams better than this group since 2008 (2010, 2011, 2012, 2016, and 2020), but this tournament often isn't about how good you are, it's about getting it done when it counts. This one did and honestly never even played at their best to do it other than the Villanova game.

Reminds me a lot of the 2012 run really except they didn't run into Anthony Davis this time.

And Roy got 0 here. Find a dick and suck it Carolina.

It reminds me a bit of how everyone kind of knew Andy Reid was one of the all-time great coaches but were just waiting on him to win the big one. Similar with Self...everyone also kind of already knew he was just as good as anybody to coach over the past 30 years but they were waiting for him to pick up that 2nd and get to the next level. He did and hopefully he'll start getting recognition as the best in the game now.

The Morris twins were great in 2011, but that guardplay was not great.

2012 had shit for depth.

Maybe a prisoner of the moment, but I’d take 2022 over those two.

2016 was really good. 2020 was incredibly good.

Appreciate it, but just did what needed to be done. Season was on the line, there was no choice.

Wait what? never doubt? hmmmmm ok bud. :)

I think KCC should have to subscribe to the boat racing channel for the next 5 years. Lololol

We did it! Sooooo amped you guise

Very good comparison

Both coaches simply had shit luck. For years.

McCormack deserved MOP IMO. He completely dominated Villanova and worked very hard against a far more physically talented big tonight to the point that he won the battle at the end. We don't win tonight's game without him.

Get him a sub to Boatracing Magazine? register him @ www.Boatracing.com?

Ive been hard on McCormack but David McMadness got robbed for Final Four MVP.

Ochai was good but David should have got it.

I thought he locked it up on that last bucket.

I would’ve given it to him too.

Ochai just said that he thinks Dave should’ve been MOP

Yes, I think you could make an argument for 2022 over 2011 and 2012. They're close. Not over 2010, 2016 or 2020 though.

Nature of the tournament.

Whats your email KCC? Ill get you subscribed.

You mean David McMadness.

That's nice. He's right.

Recruiting classes are so crazy.

Who would’ve thought that 5’10” point guard would’ve been the best player in a class with Wiggins and Embiid?

Or what about Graham being the best player in a class with Oubre and Alexander?

Grimes and Dotson were our best recruits, but Dave and Ochai just led us to a national title.

Just crazy.

Couldn't have done it without your relentless optimism as a counter to my posts.

Plow is enjoying this, I'm sure.

Oh man. Love that. You deserve it, Bill.

Here’s a tough one. Who wins another title first? Self or Reid?

Agreed.

McCormack played man's ball tonight. And all of March really.

And that's why we love ochai. He's right but you gotta appreciate his humbleness

Odds would say Mahomes will get it done for Reid first.

Yeah. He represents the university very well.

Hard to hate the kid. Hopefully he makes some NBA money.

I think he will. Reminds me quite a bit of Danny Green, who has been in the league forever. He'll have all the open corner 3s with space he could ever want there.

What's crazy is that Ochai might actually be the only NBA player on this team. Braun and Wilson have a shot, but jury is still out on that.

Self just got a ton out of these guys.

Why wouldn't I watch this?

Hope so. I'm like never right projecting guys to the league, but it sure seems like he should get reps in the league.

Reerun was the boat racer.

Im changing my username to Boat_Racer

In honor of this season.

I’d like to see Braun and Wilson come back for another year.

Braun I think there is no chance he goes to the draft. Wilson, idk. He’s got a decent body but I’d stay if I were him. Like I said I suck at this.

Thank you to whomever changed my username.

****ing legendary.

Can't see either one being a 1st round pick, though that hasn't stopped others before.

LMAO no longer Reerun' :)

ROFL

Now all the noobs will have no idea of your history, a clean slate.

McCormack can come back, right? I’d welcome him back.

Honestly less worried about Braun and Wilson. Dick and Rice are ballers.

My understanding is that McCormack can come back. And you never know, he might. Self certainly wouldn't turn him away and he's not going to the NBA.

Meh. They’ll be fine.

I’ll go back to Reerun_KC in time.

But while we’re celebrating…..

With NIL, he might make more in Lawrence than Europe next year.

7 national championship is so good.

Together we were unstoppable LMAO

Part of me thinks he took the needle in these Final Four games and important games. He had a nagging foot injury and you cant probably do that for every game.

It'll look great next to the 2020 NC bottle!

2 bottles in 3 years. What an era. A dynasty if you will.

Underrated play in that game is Remy Martin getting back to block Caleb Love from behind at the rim on what would have been an open layup while up only 1 with less than a minute left. For everything that happened all year, the guy showed up when it counted on both ends and was probably our best player throughout the entire duration of the tournament.
