The Kansas men’s basketball team is winning with offense.
The Jayhawks are outscoring their flaws at this point, using elite outside shooting and a relentless transition attack to hold off opponents at the end of games.
The question that still comes up often, though, is this: What’s wrong with KU’s normally reliable defense?
The stats haven’t been great so far. After ranking third in defensive efficiency last year, Kansas is 28th this season — a mark that, if it stands, would be the worst for Kansas coach Bill Self in his 14 seasons with the Jayhawks.
