Following Kansas 89-83 exhibition loss to Louisville Head Coach Bill Self shared his thoughts by saying I don’t want to sound happy by any means but I thought it was a perfect game for us I thought we played hard played well . We were terrible situationally which, thats what these games are for . They played their asses off and shot unbelievably well . A big guy made four threes . We were going to give them that . We wouldn’t the next time we played them but we’re going to give them that anyway so thoughts they’re was a lot of good things that happened tonight. I thought they were better down the stretch in the last two minutes to take advantage of our miscus. Which we had several but I think those are great teaching moments.
