I know it's a long way to go, but it's Bill Self. He's gonna miss another sweet 16 and lose to the lower seed.

Granted, Vegas has this game as a pick em. So this isn't an upset regardless of the seeding.

But how many times is this for Self? Losing to the lower seed and not advancing to the final 32 or 16? At least 6 times, right? Self has to own this record as a coach and he's still relatively young. He has at least 15 more years of doing this.

To be fair, he doesn't have that guy he paid to play there this year.

Does Self have to worry? I know he piles up the wins in their shitty conference and gets good tourney seeds, but they want more. Might he be fired if he doesn't make the Sweet 16 next year? How many of these are they gonna accept?

If he does get fired, Illinois can get him back!!!! :cheers:

He has questionable eligibility.

How many national titles would Tom Izzo have if he got to coach all of Self's teams over the last 15 years? That goes back to his Illinois years. I say at least four.

I love if. Upsets are what make the tournament great.

You're one of those. This was not an upset. Vegas had it as a pick em.

My point in this thread was just to say, upset or not, how many of these will Kansas accept where Self is the higher seed and loses. And that Self is a horrible coach. But he gets the wang whippers. Then again, who wouldn't get the wang whippers at a school like Kansas?

In my world, a 7 seed beating a 2 seed is an upset.

It was kind of funny seeing helpless Bill Self lose. The look on his face reminded me of Brian Kelly at halftime during the 'Bama National Championship game. No idea what to do.

Why does Beardown never get shit about some of the things he types on this board, every bit as bad as some of other stuff I see? Just awful.

A lot of his posts whether it be wang whippers, cracker jokes or about any other post he types on here. I would say a large percentage of them have some type of slur. Just my view.

I ride his arse all the time. Sometimes I feel bad about it. However, he is a fairly unique poster, and I find him to be generally entertaining. His presence on this board increases my laughter.

Well, when he says Wang Whippers I know he's poking fun at Bernstein who actually uses the term.

Same with Crackers, but that is less obvious.


Beardown gets a good amount of hate though.

Just my thoughts, there are a few times I find him funny but I do get sick of reading a lot of that stuff.
