    I've been around a lot of fanbases, and KU by far has the most petulant, insecure fan base on the planet. It's amazing.

        It's because basketball is literally the only sport they have that is worth investing faith in.. Think about it, their football is a punching bag while baseball is irrelavant. They are unhappy people for 7 months out of the year and get off on harrassing other fan bases that actually have reason to not be depressed for 7 long months every year.

          Was just making an observation and responding to another poster's question. Chill out.

I highly doubt the data indicates otherwise, considering the NCAA tournament, but if you can provide me data otherwise please let me know. I am well aware KU has beat the crap out of the Big 12 for nearly half my lifetime. I also know KU has 2008 and 2012, but for a team who is consistently a top seed, they have been rather disappointing.
            Ah what the heck...

            Georgetown, not KU, has undeniably been the most disappointing NCAA tourney team of the last decade. Not. Even. Close.

            Georgetown Seed Record Conclusion
            2007 2 4-1 Final Four
            2008 2 1-1 Upset by a 10 seed
            2010 3 0-1 Upset by a 13 seed
            2011 6 0-1 Upset by a 11 seed
            2012 3 1-1 Upset by a 11 seed
            2013 2 0-1 Upset by a 15 seed
            2015 4 1-1 Lost to a 5 seed

            Ever since that Final Four in 2007, Georgetown has been on a historic run of early exits.

            Finally, hey @kai...

              I find it humorous to see people getting bent out of shape over anything that Kellen has tweeted. There is no Shocker fan who should be offended by anything he's done. Just because some Jayhawk fans didn't like it, who cares. It shouldn't hurt recruiting, and Kellen is one of the most loyal Shocker supporters out there. Gregg can monitor his own kid. As long as he doesn't begin to criticize individual players on our team or on other teams, say inappropriate things, etc., I just don't get the problem.

                  Gregg Marshall is on vacation out of town, WSU people are telling me. So if a plane from Nashville is here, it's unclear as to its purpose.

                    Right now football is a punching bag but is improving. 2013 NCAA Women's Track and Field Outdoor Champions. 3 straight season sweeps of WSU in baseball.

                      But hey, at least you finally advanced farther in the NCAA tournament than WSU again. It isn't even trolling if all you get people to do is post true things that make them feel good about their own program.

                            Sort of like how KU swept WSU in MBB in the 1990's?

                            Funny thing, those sorts of stats. Looks good to mouth-breathers at face value, at least.

                              Yeah you are right KU did advance farther in the tournament than WSU again. I talk about other KU sports and you bring it right back to basketball.

                                Yes, it is a shame. I was really hoping Perry could sit on his couch and dream about what could have been 1 final time.
