University of Kansas basketball followers have a track record for, shall we say, over-reacting to the fate of their men's basketball team.

Tuesday evening's 72-40 destruction of the Jayhawks at the hands of top-ranked Kentucky has plenty of fair-weather fans searching for the definition of life today.

Yet relax. Most of us understand train Costs Self will right the ship, acquire the team headed in a better direction and at some point succeed its 11th straight Huge 12 regular-season champion.

?

As a fair-weather follower as well as Kansas graduate, I understand that the people that take these early period games so seriously represent the minority of KU fans.

The majority of us truly do not begin focusing up until the normal Huge 12 season is fifty percent over, and also significant talk has started about who's going to be a No. 1 seed in the NCAA event throughout March Madness.

Considering that, permit's face it, that's what it is everything about: being at your finest in March and also wishing to play in the national title game.

I'm not saying KU will make it that far (though devoted fans sure hope so).

The Jayhawks are a lot much better compared to they showed on Tuesday night.

At least, I hope so.
