I'm going to have some fucking crow on DMac. That fucking 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 fucking tournament long. Dude deserves whatever good vibes he gets. That was a fucking performance. Even after Bacot got him a few times, he gave no fucks and just went and got his.
Same with Braun. Dude played a fuck 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 fucking 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 fucking thing. [Reply]

They played like Champions.
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. :-) [Reply]

It's fucking incredible.
And all the props in the world, because they hit a fucking wall after a good start in the first half, but came out of the locker room like it never happened. [Reply]
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. [Reply]

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

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. [Reply]
