    Not The Bracketologists

    March is here, the bracket is out, and Not The Experts is back to do what it does best: react, rant, and try to make sense of Kansas basketball (and it's fandom). Evan & Dave break down KU’s NCAA Tournament draw, walk through their brackets, and ask the biggest question of the season: is there still enough time for this team to become what it was supposed to be? Along the way, they hand out another Down Bad award, roast KU Twitter for acting like it knows more than Bill Self, and dive into the Hunter Dickinson comments that sparked a bigger conversation about fan toxicity and the future of Kansas basketball. Plus: why Bruce Pearl is stealing money, why Arizona might be the best team in the country, and Dave’s beautifully unhinged dream bracket where KU makes a run, Elmarko becomes a hero and the goat, and KU Twitter still finds a way to ruin everything.

    4 Seed Energy

    On this episode of Not The Experts, Evan & Dave break down Kansas finishing the regular season 22–9 and tied for third in the Big 12, but with wildly mixed vibes heading into the postseason. They revisit the Arizona road trip disaster, the Bill Self ejection that derailed the Arizona State game, and the emotional senior night win over Kansas State — highlighted by Melvin Council’s unforgettable Jayhawk kiss. The guys also hand out season superlatives, from Darryn Peterson nuclear scoring bursts and the Arizona win at Allen Fieldhouse to the low points of the season: the mysterious cramps saga, frustrating chemistry issues, and a team that never quite reached its ceiling. Plus: a full rant on Doug Sirmons officiating, the bizarre Big 12 LED court experiment, and why dismissing the possibility of Jacque Vaughn as KU’s future coach might be the dumbest take on the internet. Finally, they preview the Big 12 Tournament, what Kansas must prove before the NCAA Tournament, and why a fully unlocked Darryn Peterson could make KU the most terrifying 4-seed in the country.

    This Season Refuses To Be Boring

    On this episode of Not The Experts (or maybe Not the Narratives), Evan & Dave tackle the national media explosion around Darryn Peterson after he was caught on camera asking out of a game. They break down the incosistency, the Stephen A. and Dicky V overreactions, and why the loudest voices clearly haven’t been watching KU all season. From there, it’s a full recap of the Cincinnati egg and the Houston bounce-back — including Flory Bidunga’s defensive dominance, Bryson Tiller’s NBA ceiling, Trey White’s return to form, and the ongoing Elmarko roller coaster experience. They also dig into an uncomfortable Darryn theory: What if this isn’t physical at all? Is it pressure? Is it mental? He is a young human after all...And at this point in the season, does it even matter anymore? Plus: Down Bad Canada, villain-era Fran, Big Monday witchcraft, and why Allen Fieldhouse remains a statistical horror movie for opponents.

    Allen Fieldhouse Supremacy

    On this episode of Not The Experts, Evan & Dave officially rebrand (again), from Not the Cramps to Not the Flu, and open with a full “Down Bad” breakdown of the Super Bowl, late-night tipoffs, and the slow death of good commercials. Then it’s all Kansas vs. Arizona: Allen Fieldhouse shaking, the second-half comeback, and why the environment punched Arizona right in the mouth. They dive deep into the performances of Flory Bidunga and Bryson Tiller, the rise of two-big basketball, Elmarko’s elite passing, Trey White’s confidence struggles, and Melvin Council’s all-time “dawg” performance. The back half of the episode tackles the Darryn Peterson controversy: the viral courtside text, KU’s awkward response, “flu-like symptoms,” and growing questions about chemistry, leadership, and commitment. Evan & Dave debate draft stock, agent influence, and what this all means for Bill Self and the program moving forward. Plus: Lindsey Vonn discourse, viral tweets, Big 12 outlook, and why winning without Darryn might’ve saved everyone from full disaster mode.

    Darryn Daggers

    On this episode of Not The Experts, Evan & Dave celebrate KU’s unbeaten streak since the infamous “team meeting” and officially retire (maybe?) the “Not the Cramps” era. They break down the Texas Tech comeback, Darryn Peterson’s Jordan-level clutch gene, and why chanting at generational players is always a terrible idea. They dive deep into the ongoing “cramps vs. load management vs. something else” mystery, analyze Darryn’s dominance when he’s fully unleashed, and examine how his presence changes everything for this team. Plus: Flory Bidunga’s meteoric defensive rise, Trey White’s role adjustment struggles, a gritty Bill Self road win, and why this might quietly be a national title–level roster. The episode wraps with trap-game anxiety, Arizona hype, Gambling with Pastor Dave, and more rebrands than a startup in crisis.

    Melvin Council Jr. is a menace (and just what KU needed)

    On this episode of Not The Experts, Evan & Dave try to make sense of one of the strangest weeks Kansas basketball has had in years. They open with Bill Self’s hospitalization, the shifting “under the weather” narrative, and what it reveals about how little transparency fans actually get. From there, it’s a loaded Down Bad segment featuring Kansas State (again), Fran Fraschilla, NIL court chaos at Alabama, and the NCAA continuing to trip over its own shoelaces. Then it’s hoops: Darryn Peterson’s absurd Baylor performance, his growing mid-range assassin game, Flory Bidunga’s MacCormick-era post value, Tre White and Melvin Council’s leap, Elmarko Jackson’s confidence arc, and why this team feels fundamentally different than the last few years. They also unpack the Colorado win without Self, the Jacque Vaughn succession discourse, why fans aren’t ready for a post-Bill era, and whether Jerome Tang’s act has officially expired in Manhattan. The episode wraps with a look ahead to a massive BYU showdown, the looming Big 12 gauntlet, and Gambling with Pastor Dave quietly becoming… profitable? Subscribe and follow us on X!

    Not The Cramps: ISU Beatdown Edition

    This week on Not The Experts, Evan & Dave hold a “team meeting” at Arby’s (the truck stop one, obviously) to discuss a possible rebrand: Not the Cramps… or maybe Not the Camps. Then they get into the real stuff: The Jayhawks' whiplash week in Big 12 play — the collapse vibes after West Virginia, the sudden statement game vs. Iowa State, and why the difference wasn’t “schemes” as much as energy. They break down the defensive adjustments (smarter switching), the trimmed rotation, Elmarko’s chaotic-good hustle play, and Darryn Peterson’s most interesting game yet: fewer touches, better flow, and the first real signs of chemistry returning. Plus: ESPN’s camera disaster, the truth about “bad takes,” and Dave’s increasingly fake-but-still-dangerous gambling segment (including Indiana becoming America’s new favorite football team).

    The Not The Experts Guide To Minutes Restrictions

    This timeon Not The Experts, Evan & Dave hit the emergency button after Kansas’ first Big 12 game detonates into one of the strangest situations either of them has ever seen in college basketball. What starts as a normal recap turns into a full forensic breakdown of the Darryn Peterson minutes restriction, the injury report that wasn’t, the bench behavior that makes zero sense, and why none of the official explanations actually hold up. They walk through the timeline, examine Bill Self’s words vs. actions, discuss the growing rift between logic and messaging, and wrestle with the uncomfortable reality that something behind the scenes is very wrong. Along the way: Down Bad returns, Melvin Council earns his flowers, bad tweets get roasted, and the guys ask the question no one wants to ask — is it already time to cut losses? It’s not conspiracy. It’s confusion. And it’s officially reached a breaking point. If you think we earned it, please subscribe and rate us well. Thanks!
