Have spoken to several buddies who live around in places like Ohio, Florida, and Oregon. They all say about the same thing regarding the growing perception of KU basketball. A solid program that just doesn't show up enough in the tournament. Has lost some luster due to this.
Of course, it's anecdotal and I know we'll point to Elite 8s and NC and 2 FFs but when you consider that over half of Self's tournament losses have come in fairly embarrassing fashion it's understandable how a program can begin to get a reputation.
Sad as that may be given we have also had great success. But the inexplicable losses are piling up it seems.
Not to pile on. I'm always interested in hearing opinions outside the Kansas/KC bubble I live in too.
