AJ Storr should've either stayed at St. John's or Wisconsin.

He actually played well at those schools.

Does he even get significant minutes now?

2 points and 2 TOs were his only stats in another KU loss. He'll probably go to another school next year but he's not getting a bag this time. Idk why he's regressed so much this year, that KU team is just cursed. I liked Storr's game last year at UW.

Kansas had TWENTY TOs this game...it's a miracle they lost by only 6

Yeah, I caught the tail end of the game at work(ESPN app actually been pretty good for me the past yr or so)


But I think that is exactly why Storr transfered multiple times. To chase a bag, which I have no issue with, but that shít has derailed the possibility of him making it to the league. Not saying he would have, but the way he looked at Wisconsin, he was on the right trajectory. Now, he messed it up and no other school is gonna give him any money with the way he's looked at Kansas

He fukking sucks. nikka is a volume merchant. I’ve watched him move in slow motion and shoot that broke ass jumper all season.

nikka does nothing but shoot and when he does that he’s just causing damage to the rim

This isn’t a tournament team. Hope they get left out to show the money folks it’s time to make a move. Let Bill go go OkSt if he wants. I’m just tired of arguing with fans that we couldn’t get someone in to do better or at least maximize the KU brand to where we have to deal with these past two seasons

Crazy fans talking about give it time…that’s how you end up like Indiana.

Y'all just won a title 3 seasons ago...Self hasn't "lost it" it's just a team that doesn't gel, mostly b/c you tried to bring in too many portal guys. Starting PG is pretty trash too, and he'll be gone next year.

Hunter dikkinson has been a loser at every step of the way. He puts up empty #'s, plays zero defense and is a locker room cancer. Too big of an ego

AJ Storr is on his 7th school in 7 years...that was a major red flag that was ignored

Fresh start next year with that guy that's the #2 overall recruit (i forget his name). dikkinson has to be done with college right? Storr will probably transfer again, keeping up with his annual tradition. Storr's jumper was shaky last year at UW, he was better at creating off the dribble. Looks like he got paid, and decided to try anymore.

If for some reason y'all underachieve next year then it's time to move on, but I don't think that will happen.

Kansas is Kansas and should have zero problem bringing in top 5 classes every year, it's still better to build from recruiting and fill in holes with the portal rather than trying to bring in the biggest names in the portal every off season. IU tried this and failed miserably, it didn't work for KU either.

But he has. The talent he’s had and the time he’s been there only to have two titles is a tragedy. Done more than Roy but can guarantee you Roy is still more beloved. He refuses to adapt and holds onto developing his guys which inevitably backfires like the last two seasons have. Quiet as kept, his recruiting slipped like shyt (we know why). This his first true portal class. Them bums they brought in last year don’t count since none of them got major tick anyway. He was just filling out the roster

I get that. He's underachieved given all the talent. But so has just about every high level coach at some point.

Let's say you let him go this year? Who would you go after?

Roy is a better coach than Self, I don't think many people think it's the opposite.

I’ll say what I say to the scared Kansas fans who ask the same thing. We are Kansas. We can get whoever tf we want

Kentucky thought this exact same way last cycle and was rejected by their top 3 or 4 choices. Not saying this would happen at KU, but if a guy can win a title at Baylor, they don't really need the pressure of going to KU or UK.

I was also asking, who would you want as the coach, ideally. Oats at KU with some defensive minded assistants would be dangerous...but Oats already turned down UK.

Indiana insider said a few weeks ago the word is Oats wants the KU job. But his buyout is too crazy right now.
