Just disappointed we don't get to see Gilbert play in the tournament. But at least he played very well in his final home game. Truly balled out for that one. And I will remember his three pointer to ice the Kansas game for quite a while. One of those iconic shots at Hilton

Thanks for the memories KG.

Keshon told Chris Williams when asked about his injury, "it is my groin and I injured it during the 1st Corado conference game."

I remember seeing Keshon drive to bucket on the right side of the lane and he put up a patented off balance (it is never going in) made bucket. As Keshon went out of bounds under the basket he grabbed his groin, Keshon did come out of the game for a bit and then reentered. I figured when he reentered with Iowa State blowing out Colorado that is was nothing.

Ah yes, the “that’s what they want you to think!” rebuttal.
There are rumors out there if you care to look. And ones that make a lot more sense than going from questionable for weeks to out for a month with no possibility of return. Maybe he has surgery lined up and the rumors are wrong, but I believe in occums razor more than anything.

I just don’t get the whole thing. Just say he’s out for the first 2 rounds and then reevaluate. That’s 2 weeks off it. Unless his leg fell off a 23 yo can come back from a groin injury.
Guess you've never had a serious groin injury. Rule of thumb? A grade 1 strain can take up to 3 weeks to heal. A grade 2 strain can take up to 2 or even 3 months. And a grade 3 strain will take even longer. Groin injuries are highly variable, as is the time to recover. Just on that knowledge alone, suggesting something more sinister for KG's situation makes were very sad.

There’s “buying” and there’s seeing the complete fruitlessness of investing in the contrary.

There’s absolutely nothing to be gained by refusing to take the player and coach at face value.
As the editor of this website says, coaches lie. They have not earned the benefit of the doubt.

We already know TJ lied or withheld information from the selection committee to protect our 3 seed. There's no other reason to publicly announce this 10 minutes after our bracket drops. If he's not telling the truth about that then I'm very inclined to believe he's not telling the truth to the public also about Gilbert.

If there's more to it than injury, he also doesn't benefit from letting the public know. To take coaches at face value with this stuff is just ignorance.

CW said based on what he's heard after the fact that the decision was made a half hour or hour before the selection show. To me, "withheld" is a stretch

If we’re going to conspire, it’s becoming evident that NoCreativity, besides living up to his name, is strongly considered to be part of KState’s MBB staff.

Just seems odd to me of the timing. I don't think we would have still gotten a 3 seed if they'd known he was definitely out, becuase it was a shock to even the network guys and I think all of us fans.

That interview with CW last week, he literally said it jsut depends on how it's feeling that particular day. So I don't know how you go from that to completely out 4 days later. We might not even need him for another 12 days, so who's to say he won't feel better then? This is not me just throwing darts, he literally said that himself.

Keshon hasn't played much this past month. Why would the committee think he would be available going forward? The seasons resume makes your seed not potential of winning the championship.
