I do, however, think that he's brought excellent talent to KU and when his QBs grow up, they'll be good. Unfortunately, we needed to be good while Nebraska was in a down period. Now they're getting good again.
Did they write back?
You are a KU alum?
Does it pay well?
Since when? When is Mangino not a coach but he or she did not agree with his stance that a 6-6 team that could not close out Baylor deserves a bowl game?
I haven't heard anything like that before:
said however think that he is brought excellent talent to KU and when his QBs grow up they'll be good.
Oh. By "we" do you mean you and me?Once more? Why now? getting good are
getting good

Who said I had to make sense ?

By the way, I live on the East Coast now, and I had to stay up way, way late to watch the game. But oh man was it worth it! I counted myself as a Julian Wright fan from the first time I saw him, but he just gets better and better! Once he eliminates stupid mistakes like that late foul, he'll be unstoppable.

BIRD33 Wrote:Do you really believe Self has what it takes as a coach to get it done in a big time tourney game?He obviously is a great recruiter but do you think he has what it takes to stop the pattern of playing to the level of really weak competition as we have seen?To me that's all coaching and teams like that can get beat any night.
I think Saturday night's game showed a lot of what Self is about at KU.
âNobody got loud except to tell âJuâ to just shut up,â Robinson cracked, adding Wrightâs main message was âto do what coach Self tells us to do. It wasnât a pleasant vibe. Everyone was pretty upset and angry about how the season was going.â
The likeable Wright took to heart Selfâs edict to play hard from the start against the Gators, who had won six games this season by an average of 40.5 points a game. He admitted he had a lot to say at the playersâ meeting.
As far as Selfâs meeting with the players, which led to the players deciding to gather, Robinson said: âHe laid it on the line and said we had to come out with more intensity and focus if we wanted to come out with a win.â
âThey (players) havenât been real happy with me which would be an understatement,â he said, âand Iâve not been happy with them the last couple weeks. The Ball State game was very disappointing to me because we didnât play like we can â with energy and passion. We challenged them and knew theyâd come out with energy and effort against Florida. Tonight there were no thoughts on anything other than Kansas.â
âSo much is maturity. Remember, last year we were up and down, too, until we got to a certain point (after struggling at the Maui Invitational and other early games).â
We'll see I guess....
