I really don't think they should say that anyone beat the "defending chmpions" there is only one guy on the team that played in this years games that played in last years game, should we really put it all on his shoulders? Good job Hawks. Oh and I have a question...what does rock chalk jayhawk mean???

well well well-got us a person who has a severe medical condition called "Open Mouth, Insert Foot" syndrome, both me and my g/f were rooting for Mizzu cause we wanted one more Big 12 team in the final four-but look what happen, they lost too-so here is alittle pay back BaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHa- next time maybe you should wait before thinking Mizzu is better or WHATEVER you were thinking when you posted that "typical" and very immature post. **rolls his eyes** Now thats done-WE ARE SO VERY PROUD of all of our beloved Jayhawks-hold your head up high-no shame, no regrets-ROCK, CHAWK JAYHAWKS!!!

Congraulations Hawks on a GREAT season. With such a young team, no one thought KU would get this far. KU won the regular season Big 12 and made it to the Sweet 16. What other teams can say that. I hope everyone comes back next year to have an even better year. I hope the guys come back with their heads held high. They do not have anything to be upset about. ROCK CHALK JAYHAWKS - I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE NEXT SEASON TO START!
