Except for that last inbounds play. Supposed to give the guy three feet.

Sec. 6, Art. 6, Sec. b

No opponent of the thrower-in shall have any part of his or her person over the inside plane of the boundary line.

Either way I think it was a good play by the KU player

"Officials aren’t required to, but they generally ask for the defense to allow the inbounder for three feet of space. The issue, however, is that Mason’s toe touches the sideline at one point, and his arms pretty clearly cross that plane."

So Kansas is now 11-3? What happened to that once proud program?

He was behind the line. The ball was attempted to be tossed in, Mason jumped up and deflected it.

Kansas

Glaring issue: The Jayhawks have not been able to find a reliable frontcourt partner for star forward Perry Ellis, who is averaging 15.8 points and 6.8 rebounds. They have used five different players in that spot: seniors Hunter Mickelson and Jamari Traylor, junior Landen Lucas and freshmen Carlton Bragg and Cheick Diallo.

Obvious symptom: In effectively 82 opportunities, they have produced five double-figure scoring games – total – and one double-figure rebounding game. The absence of a suitable partner for Ellis leaves KU running its offense frequently with one arm tied behind its back. That revolving door also has revealed that each of the five players has specific weaknesses that opponents can exploit.

Less obvious symptom: Kansas’ defensive efficiency has slipped to 26th in the nation as teams such as Oklahoma State burned the Jayhawks for 50 percent shooting. KU has produced a defense ranked 11th or better in five of six previous seasons this decade.

Principle beneficiary: Oklahoma State freshman guard Jawun Evans, who smoked KU for 22 points and eight assists in Tuesday’s 86-67 victory.

Possible solutions: Coach Bill Self has seen enough of his veterans by now to realize there isn’t an ideal center among them. Traylor is ideally suited to be an energy guy. Lucas is an effective sub with great hands who occasionally struggles to finish and offers little in the way of defensive discouragement.

Bragg will be a terrific replacement for Ellis next season and can complement him at times. But KU needs Diallo to excel. He is the tallest, most dynamic and among the more skilled of KU’s center options. Indeed, he still is struggling to gain command of KU’s systems at both ends, but, frankly, not all of his more experienced teammates are consistent in that area, either. Self started him against OK State but was frustrated enough with his errors to allow him only 13 minutes.

If you think about it, he had less responsibility than most for that debacle.
