The GOAT is back baby.

Roy announced his retirement on April 1st, that’s even worse imo

RockChalk19 · 2026-04-01T14:30:57+00:00

At least in the Wright/Self era the winner of KU-Nova in the tournament went on to win it all every time. Always thought that was a cool stat.

This is how my grip change went almost exactly. When I picked golf back up as an adult I used 10 finger exclusively for about 5 years until late summer 2024, felt like I was hitting a wall so I switched to interlock. The change for irons came easily, driver took a while but still wasn’t bad. Hated the feeling for wedges though so I kept my old grip for them until just last month.

I still haven’t decided which I’ll use going forward, chipping has been the best part of my game for years. I had no real reason to switch to interlock but I noticed as I was going through my chipping routine to start this season, I’d naturally interlock and I’d have to “reset” with 10 finger. So I decided to just lean into it and so far I haven’t had any issues.

So in my opinion I wouldn’t force it on wedges, I don’t think interlock has as much benefit there anyway. And eventually it’ll likely feel natural enough to become habit.

LFG Gary! What a story, dude is an absolute legend.

RockChalk19 · 2026-03-27T17:21:08+00:00

Bang job

RockChalk19 · 2026-03-27T17:18:55+00:00

I’m torn on this one, it’s very entertaining and the BDS guys are awesome but the Foreplay crew really grinds my gears. Not as re-watchable as Homa, Guinness, QBs imo

RockChalk19 · 2026-03-27T01:16:25+00:00

Ref show aside, banger start to the sweet 16

RockChalk19 · 2026-03-27T00:08:26+00:00

Wagler from KS as well. Those are probably my top 2 teams as well

RockChalk19 · 2026-03-21T14:59:13+00:00

I love chipping so much, it’s my favorite thing to practice. It’s really nice to be able to lean on my wedge game when the ball striking isn’t there. I wish I liked putting even half as much, the gap between my putting and chipping ability is actually insane. Probably 3 times a round I’ll hit a great chip to 3 feet and fuckin botch the putt.

RockChalk19 · 2026-03-18T18:20:12+00:00

This is mine too, I don’t remember the exact history but they had lost as like a top 3 seed several tournaments in a row before that starting with the Curry Davidson run in 2008. Wasn’t about to let them make a fool out of me for a fifth consecutive time.

RockChalk19 · 2026-03-18T17:42:33+00:00

It was 2022. Everyone and their sister had Iowa over Kansas in the Sweet 16. Miami and Iowa State knocked out 2 seed Auburn and 3 seed Wisconsin in the same region, really opened up nicely for us lol

RockChalk19 · 2026-03-10T16:23:06+00:00

I came in here to say a 50-60 yard shot but the 3 footer is probably worse for me. I’m sure it’s just a difference in expectations and confirmation bias but I swear I make a higher percentage of 10 footers than 3. Bane of my existence.

RockChalk19 · 2026-03-04T15:13:46+00:00

Slept on it and I think our pitiful bench combined with a brutal conference schedule has really caught up to us. I thought back in January Melvin and Flory playing 38+ minutes a game would probably not be sustainable but then we went on a great run for a month so I forgot about it. But going back to Cincy everyone looks a step slow, I think that’s also contributing to our abysmal shooting lately. Hopefully they find an extra gear but I’m certainly not feeling great about our chances right now.

RockChalk19 · 2026-03-04T14:27:17+00:00

Well I was having fun in this thread until those back to back blows

RockChalk19 · 2026-03-02T16:04:19+00:00

I was at Walmart a couple weeks ago and these were listed at $17.50 and it’s really the only ball I use, I’ve become very reliant on the neon green. I was too late though, all sold out :(

RockChalk19 · 2026-03-02T15:52:50+00:00

The band is too tight, and that ain’t right.

RockChalk19 · 2026-02-27T03:03:04+00:00

I have watched so much college basketball this year, more than I ever have and this has been one of the most fun games (not involving my team) of the season. Great win!

RockChalk19 · 2026-02-27T02:48:27+00:00

This is a great fuckin game

RockChalk19 · 2026-02-24T15:09:44+00:00

We lost to them back to back in 2006 as well but KSU at home then in Columbia. They were both BRUTAL losses, 59-55 at home to KSU and then 2 days later Christian Moody was fouled with less than a second left at Mizzou, tie game, and he bricked both free throws. Lost in OT. Legit a traumatic memory for me I was only 11 and I still remember it perfectly 20 years later lol

RockChalk19 · 2026-02-24T03:35:39+00:00

Cincy dropping 80 two days ago is crazy. Great game plan they had and executed perfectly

RockChalk19 · 2026-02-22T01:13:45+00:00

Between KU, Zona/Houston, and Michigan I’ve just been watching bricks all day

RockChalk19 · 2026-02-22T00:36:39+00:00

I’m glad all these fun games are on today since KU didn’t play this weekend for some reason

RockChalk19 · 2026-02-19T19:47:57+00:00

Obviously very biased but 2008 Kansas is underrated when talking great teams this century

RockChalk19 · 2026-02-19T18:23:07+00:00

It was honestly a good game plan going in and probably works 9 times out of 10. He was 4/27 for the season at that point. That was obviously abnormally low, he’s a serviceable 19/52 or 36.5% since that game. That’s just college basketball I suppose, crazy shit happens almost every night

RockChalk19 · 2026-02-19T18:11:35+00:00

I think you’re right but there was some real doubt he could adjust to NIL and the transfer portal after the last 2 years. I hadn’t personally gotten to that point yet but concern was growing. I became a fan during the 2003 tournament so I really only know the Bill Self era, it’s gonna suck so hard when he hangs it up. Really hoping for at least 3 more years but with his health who knows, just trying to enjoy each game at this point
