What a swell bunch of student athletes!

I like to look at the game photos on the JW website.

Looks like there was a little kerfuffle in the handshake line after the game by the WV big guy.....perhaps only an exchange of pleasantries.

The T was bad, but one could argue that the one on the KSU guy in the previous game was just as questionable.

Of course, on TV you can't hear what these guys might be muttering at the refs, so generally I'll assume that somebody said something they shouldn't have and that was the call. In any case, act like you've been there before, Dok. You dunk on people all the time...it ain't no thing.

I'm just saying that we benefited from an equally sketchy T in the K-State game. If you agree that the K-State technical was ticky-tacky then I think we agree. I highly doubt our student section was encouraging KSU to have a good game.

My only point is that you can show emotion and fire up the team without directing your passion into a taunt or comment to the ref.

I do think the WVU center could have been equally sited for "taunting" but you ain't never gonna get that call in your own gym. I do think Huggie told him to tone it down as well.

Didn't get to watch the game but watched the later replay at the end. How was Bilas? I usually like him better than most. At the end he was really giving KU kudos for its comeback--a few times mentioned how awesome it was to see and how much it took to keep coming back and ultimately winning the game. Credited DG with the momentum swing that gave us the win. Nice to hear.

Bilas was pretty good (as usual, imho). He's critical where he needs to be and where teams deserve it.

He was knocking KU for allowing WVU to get them out of their game, but was correctly pointing out DG and Svi for turning the tides while being critical of WVU for allowing open shots.

He thought Dok's technical was BS (I agree).

He also mentioned the court storming thing and essentially said that it shouldn't happen, and that the Big 12 should enforce its own rule against it. Whether you agree with that comment or not, kudos to him for being a straight shooter and voicing an opinion.

In a semi-related news, the WVU AD made comments before the game yesterday essentially saying that the WVU hoops program is now at a level where they should expect home wins and where court storming should be unnecessary of a program of their caliber. Obviously they didn't have an opportunity last night, but it would have been interesting to see if anybody would have done so.

When was the last time the Allen Fieldhouse court was stormed after a game? I assume it has probably happened but I cannot recall it happening.

Just googled and according to the blog I found, Allen Fieldhouse court has been stormed twice. Once after a win against Missouri in March 1973. The only other time was January 27, 2003 against Texas. Apparently only about 50 fans actually made it onto the court. I have obviously purged that sordid spectacle from my memory. I am somewhat ambivalent to court storming but I view it as beneath Kansas fans (far far far far far far far far far beneath). In fact, I loath the “overrated” cheer as well. I am still proud of the class the Allen Fieldhouse fans showed to Buddy Hield. I am also proud of the orderly way the fans exited AFH after a 19 point comeback defeat of Missouri in the final game of that storied rivalry. If ever there was a moment to storm the court that would have been it but in no way is there ever a proper time to storm the court other than for 16,300 fans who go to AFH to watch a video of the Jayhawks winning a National Championship. Then I say storm everything in Lawrence including the court.

April 7, 2008 was the last court storming in the Fieldhouse. And it should be the only time a court storming should be allowed. (I'm assuming we'll never play a National Championship game there.) But hey, let's do it again!
