Shocker. Gregg Marshall lied.

3/22/2015

 

2013


"I'm not going to just be bought," the decorated Shockers coach says. "I'm not going to go to Allen Fieldhouse for a check."

Marshall, for his part, is ready and willing. Not only that, he says he's even pitched a three-game series to the KU camp -- and, as a perk, none of those games are at the Shox's cozy, raucous Koch Arena, better known as "The Roundhouse."


The set-up: One game at Allen Fieldhouse, one at Sprint Center in Kansas City, and one at Intrust Bank Arena in downtown Wichita.


The response: Silence.

Fox Sports Keeler 12/16/13


Gregg Marshall said last week, he tried to get the Jayhawks to play his Shockers in a three-game series: a game played in Lawrence and Wichita with a third game at the Sprint Center in Kansas City.

“This isn’t knocking Wichita State,” Self told the Star on Tuesday. “But if it was best for our program, I would reach out to them about scheduling them. But it’s not. I’ve heard a lot of talk about them wanting to play us so bad; Gregg Marshall’s never contacted me about playing.”

Popular perception portrays the clash as something the Shockers have long requested.

“Never called them,” clarified WSU coach Gregg Marshall. “They know we want to play. It’s not something I want to bother them with. I did mention it in passing one time to Bill (Self). He was in Wichita for some (charity) deal.”

Marshall recalled one such get-together Friday, saying he mentioned in passing to Self during a coaches’ function in Wichita that the Shockers would love to play KU at Intrust Bank Arena. Marshall added that he’s never called KU about setting up a nonconference series but that “they know we want to play.”

It is well documented Kansas had the toughest schedule in 2014-15 and there is more proof in the fact KU has faced 12 teams in the 2015 NCAA Tournament. In all, Kansas has played 18 games against 11 teams in this year's NCAA Tournament field with an 14-5 record: Baylor (3-0), Georgetown (1-0), Iowa State (1-2), Kentucky (0-1), Lafayette (1-0), Michigan State (1-0), New Mexico State (1-0), Oklahoma (1-1), Oklahoma State (1-1), Texas (2-0), Utah (1-0) and West Virginia (1-1).

Dream Until Your Dream Comes True!

Kansas is “really just a name,” said Tshilidzi Nephawe, a chiseled 6-10, 270-pound center from South Africa. “Just somebody else we’re playing.”

…“I think I’m bigger and stronger than everybody,” he said, “so I think I will have an advantage over them.”


…
“We’re not going to let them shoot threes for sure, and when they drive inside we will be able to change their shots and stuff like that,” he said. “They’re big, too, but they struggle around the rim with size and stuff like that, so we should be good if we don’t give them any threes.”
KC Star


“I think we match up real well with Kansas, their physicality, their length and their athleticism,” said Aggies guard Matt Taylor. “They’re much bigger bodies than we’re used to playing against in the WAC. They’re not really tall, but they’re pretty strong.”
TCJ


“When we first saw Kansas, we were kind of shocked,” said Tanveer Bhullar, a 7-3 reserve center. “But when we started watching film, they look like a real beatable team.”

History, of course, sides with Kansas. Since the tournament expanded to 64 teams in 1985, No. 15 seeds are just 7-113 against No. 2 seeds.

“That’s an interesting stat,” New Mexico State guard Matt Taylor said. “Well, I guess we’re about to be No. 8.”

KU successfully ran Chop to Devonte' Graham in a two-for-one situation. A very Selfian moment to end the half. Kansas 37, Iowa State 23.

Graham, with tears in eyes: "Just turning the ball over on game point like that, I just felt like I let the team down, fans down."
