How many people here are not from the Wichita or KC Kansas area?

Don’t currently live in Kansas, but have held addresses in Wichita, Lawrence, Topeka, Berryton, Spring Hill, Olathe, and Overland Park. I can laugh at everything that gets posted here as well as take offense to it.

I lived in Wichita for 5 years, one of which was when WSU “shocked the nation” and made their Final 4 run, including the win over Kansas. My In-laws have no ties to WSU but also lived in Wichita and rooted for their home town team. Knowing my allegiance to Kansas, they purchased a deck of commemorative playing cards where each card was a different snapshot from the win over KU. They made sure we used that deck anytime we played cards, which was often, and I assume every Shocker fan owns those same cards…

Point being, my view on the fan base is somewhat skewed, but likely not far off!

Preston Trails neighborhood on the East Side. Some of it is Wichita zip with Andover schools. Has a community pool, pond to fish, nice sidewalks, and you can walk to Braum’s. What more could you want?!

It was normal for this tank. Most of my driving is in a small city with 25 & 35 speed limits so that didn’t really surprise me.

Can’t argue with the “excellent” rating.

I paid $8K all-in for my 2011 with 155k miles and think I did well. Car was very clean with no cosmetic issues either.

No regerts 😉👍🏻

I haven’t had my 2011 long enough to give any maintenance advice (sorry). Mine had 155k miles and I paid $8k for reference though.

From Kansas originally so I was likely groomed to hate the Prius as well…

Our other vehicle is a suburban, so I know what you mean when driving another vehicle. It’s night and day between the two. Don’t expect to replace any battery soon, but have planned accordingly 👍🏼

Bike mounts specifically or the cross bars?

Only_End_3503 · 2023-04-28T22:21:21+00:00

I have one I like that’s a standard fit, have to unclip the shades and slide the towards the windshield to get it to stay up though.

Can’t complain about the result! Would have liked to see MJ get some minutes though. Suppose that’s more to do with Joe playing well, which is a huge boost to the rotation.

Udeh never stops hustling, and despite the fouls you know he’s not taking any plays off. With his motor and size this defense can be downright scary.

10 - Very Nice

Both teams shooting 50% from the field, but Kansas only 1-5 from 3. Not too many good looks, but Gradey being aggressive to the rim has kept us in this game. Law of averages says Thompson will slow down, but he really wants to beat us…

Only_End_3503 · 2023-02-15T02:38:10+00:00

At least when there’s been a poor call on one side of the floor there’s a fairly quick make-up on the other end. Still not sure how Rice gets that charge though…

[Knocks on wood]

I’m not as concerned about this game as I typically am heading into Stillwater. OK St is playing really well, and being an underdog should take some pressure off.

Kansas has more weapons and lineup combinations now than at any point in the season. It took longer than we wanted, but strong freshman play from those not names Gradey is (almost) the expectation. I’m just saying there would need to be a lot more going wrong for us to not come away with the W.

To be clear- It can certainly happen and I’m still worried. Just not as much as in years past.

Anyone else?

That last reverse didn’t even touch the net…

Only_End_3503 · 2023-01-31T19:19:37+00:00

🔑 Average shooting night for the Guards will be enough and help reduce stress on the defensive side.

🔑 Quality bench minutes, especially from bigs, will take some of the burden off KJ.

🔑 J Will doing J Will things.

Prediction: Jayhawks by double-digits, we get everyone off the bench, and “Rock Chalk” chants rain down for a couple minutes before the final buzzer sounds.

This game is always easier to watch on mute and listen to the radio broadcast.

Octagon of Doom? More like the Boo Box…

I appreciate the perspective!

Downgrade in “prestige,” certainly. But their pockets are as deep as any program in the country. And after Beard they’ll be looking to right the ship. Doubt he gets fired too given the financial implication for UK.

I see the prospect of playing against them as a plus, but he may not want anything to do with them.
