Assuming none of the 3 guys that could go pro come back and that Moore doesn't end up like Cunliffe. Lawson brothers will be good as long as they stay out of trouble. A lot of it will come down to chemistry and toughness too
Of the group of Dok, Newman and Vick, I'd guess that only one of them leaves and that's Newman. And we have KJ Lawson and incoming Top 15 frosh SG Quentin Grimes who will fill his spot.

Dok isn't leaving. The NBA isn't in a rush to get a center who has no game outside of 3 feet and can't shoot free throws. He's great for college but he's not what the NBA wants at that position right now. Vick? Whatever. If he leaves then I'd bet we land Top 5 wing Romeo Langford to replace him. There's no chance we lose all three of those guys. Sorry, Big 12.

It is always a good idea to mock a rival's loss the night before your own big game.
Do you think Kansas will get mocked for losing to Duke, who has been one of the favorites to win it all? Eh, no. No shame in that L if it happens.

Scored 2 tickets to tomorrow's game at face value from my boss. KU will not lose due to lack of fan support, that's for sure. We're going to blow the roof off of that place and see if those Duke freshmen can understand sign language because they won't be able to hear each other at all.

Let's get back to making fun of Bruce Weber for losing to a #11 seed in the Elite Eight.

This is like T-ball. :)

KSU fans deserve better. The 5 or 6 I talked to during the game last night all disliked Weber.

Going to be some high expectations for KSU next season, and splitting with KU (LOL) and finishing second in the league are probably two of those expectations. It will be interesting how that fanbase reacts if expectations are not met.

I never said or implied you'd lose all 3

This and other crap you’ve said is exactly why everyone freakin hates KU.

Hard for a blue chip - whose not on the take - to commit to a school engulfed in such sludge as Ku is presently.
Umm, Langford is most likely choosing between Kansas (an Adidas school) or Indiana (an Adidas school). But your choice of dramatic adjectives was entertaining.
