VCU / UNI / Bucknell / Stanford....oh look, Oregon just dunked again. KU doesn't live up to their seed and it's not like your losing to a #3 seed - more like a $9 and lower. And every KU fan would trade their Left Nutt for a F4 instead of a B12 banner, because - quite frankly, nobody outside of the state of Kansas cares what you do in conference.
What other fans think of our success is irrelevant to me. Would be nice to have a few more Final Fours but all I ask as a fan is that we have a team with a great chance at tourney success every year and no program in America over the last 25+ years has done that as consistently as Kansas.
I am 45 now and I havent rolled into the new year thinking "looks like we wont even make the tourney" since I was in high school. You wanna crow about a few bummer years, fine. It may make you feel better but it's just noise.
This is one of the worst KU teams since the '99-'00 season and they just beat a Top 10 team on the road, are ranked Top 10, have a shot at doing very well this year and all three of next year's recruits just got named to the McDonalds AA team. Life is good.
