He said in his presser that he wished we didn't do it.

What really struck me tonight was how the team handled it. They expected to win. They freaking expected to win against the #7 team in the nation. Something drastic has happened to our basketball team.

That was an amazing bonding moment for the students tonight. May have cost a little prestige but I think will pay dividends

I know what you're saying. But, I don't think Larry will have a problem with storming the court tonight :mrgreen:



Yes, I don't think he did either. But he wants us to get to the place where we don't storm the court. He had no problem with it tonight.

Larry did say that, but he also spent 5 minutes high fiving every kid on the floor. He says what he needs to say.

Coach Brown never said that he wished we did not do that. What he said was that KU and UCLA expect to win games like this so they don't storm the court and the goal is to get to the place where we expect to win these types of games and don't storm the court.

“Honestly, this is one game,” Brown said. “I love the students being involved and being excited for what’s going on. But they don’t storm the court at Kansas. They don’t storm the court at UCLA. I’m so happy that [our fans] had that opportunity.

“But I’m hopeful that if we ever get this program where we would like, we expect to win games like this.”

A Program Defining Win Tonight

Postby Treadway21 » Sun Feb 09, 2014 11:42 am

How about when the students lifted Nic Moore on their shoulders. That was cool and had a great vibe. Worth it. It's been a long time so they get a pass in my book.

I thinks it's great the students stormed the court. Their energy was a big contributor to the win.

I didn't like it when I saw one student jump on MK's back. That's how players get hurt.

40+ years since we beat a top 10 team...... I would say storming the court is in order.
