The Kansas University Jayhawks won the NCAA Men's Basketball Championship in 2022. The only 1-seed to make it past the Sweet 16 was you. You won the championship game after being down by 16 points. Well done! Enjoy this win because you have earned it.
The Bill Self team was supposed to be the No. 1 team in 2020.
Did someone say something? No? I must be listening. I will be on my way now.
This needs to be addressed. The Kansas Jayhawks were the top team in the AP poll when the 2020 season was suspended because of COVID-19.
Many Kansas fans tried to claim that they had won the 2020 national championship when the season was stopped. Fans put a 2020 championship banner in the rafters. You can order a championship shirt online right now. Despite having their season cut short, Kansas basketball deserves the 2020 national championship according to an article on the Fansided site.
They may have been the best team at the end of the season, but that doesn't mean they are the best team in the country. The tournament is called March Madness. Maybe you've heard of it. There wasn't a national champion because there wasn't a national championship tournament.
The Kansas team won the tournament in 2022, but don't think that retroactively gives them the 2020 title. The team of two years ago would not have survived the gauntlet if a few players were on both teams.
The president of the NCAA held one trophy when he presented the trophy on Monday. Not two. The last few trophy presentation ceremonies are still relevant to the NCAA. Unless he could present a trophy so well that it would convince every college in the country not to leave and form their own governing body.
The Kansas City Jayhawks areCONGRATULATIONS! Dammit Mark! You only had one job. Kansas and Kansas City sound similar. If you want to reward yourself, give yourself another raise during a year when college sports revenues plummet and you insist that they aren't profitable.
Being the top seed doesn't guarantee a title. The last time the best overall seed won the whole thing was Louisville, but that title was later taken away. Ten years ago, that was the case. It is actually very rare. The Kansas team was not the top seed.
If the Jayhawks win the 2020 national championship, they will cover it in bubble wrap and send it to the school of their choice.
It's okay to feel like you weren't given the chance to win. A lot of people were unable to experience important moments in their lives because of the Pandemic. That doesn't mean you get to win a national championship when there isn't a tournament. Bill Self, the head coach of the 2020 team, said that they had a good chance of winning the tournament, but it was not a guarantee. They had a good chance, which is more than most teams get.
