Ugly social media posts directed toward Zeke Mayo didn’t cost KU Monday’s game at Houston, the Jayhawks coach said.

Recently crowned Big 12 regular season champ Houston is heavily favored in a rematch of a double-overtime win over Kansas back in January.

Bill Self’s squad has sputtered along since the start of February (4-5). They need a get right game. The Jayhawks have exceeded 73 points just once in their last nine games and are averaging 71.9 points per game and tonight that offense faces one of the top defenses in America.
