Kansas basketball is heating up — just in time for the Darryn Peterson vs. AJ Dybantsa hype machine. 🔥

In this episode of Could Be wrong, we hit the biggest Jayhawks storylines coming out of a statement rivalry win and heading into a massive Big 12 showdown.

• Melvin Council Jr. Appreciation: Why Melvin Council Jr.’s night at Kansas State felt like a turning point — and what it says about his role on this team.

• Bill Self Back on the Sideline: Bill Self has returned after a health scare — but the situation still feels heavier than a normal “back to business” moment.

• Darryn Peterson vs. AJ Dybantsa: A look ahead to Kansas vs. BYU, featuring the two most talked-about prospects in the country.

On Monday, Kansas head coach Bill Self was feeling 'under the weather' and was taken to a local hospital 'out of an abundance of caution.' The guys discuss the news and share the latest details on Self's health and who will coach vs. Colorado during his absence.

They also react to KU's second-straight blowout win vs. Baylor on Friday, and Darryn Peterson's continued dominance for the Jayhawks

We'll tell you what actually happened after the Jayhawks' massive game vs. Iowa State at Allen Fieldhouse (not what the box score nerds pretend happened).

We'll be live reacting with all of you, remaining calm, looking at the key turning points, who is trending up or down, and answering questions from the chat.

Along with the breakdown, we'll give into what it all means for the Jayhawks going forward.

Kansas fans are stuck in a loop.

Darryn Peterson returns, looks good… then disappears again. After the latest game, Bill Self spoke to the media — but his explanations about Peterson’s status, minutes, and availability don’t fully align.

We stayed totally calm and got into what the the lack of clarity means for Kansas basketball moving forward. Time to read the tea leaves.

Drafting the all-time Bill Self dogs after Melvin Council had an all-time dog game in the Jayhawks' overtime win vs. NC State.

We break down Council's breakout performance, what it means for KU’s rotation moving forward, and whether this is a one-night eruption or something Bill Self can actually build around.

But it wasn’t all smooth. Darryn Peterson exited late (again) with cramp issues, raising real questions about conditioning, usage, and how concerned KU fans should be right now.

Darryn Peterson made his triumphant return vs. Mizzou and looked as advertised. The guys discuss what his 'come back' means for Kansas, if we should expect his injury saga to be over, and how dangerous Kansas can be with one of the top players in the country back on the court. 

The fellas react to the KU-UConn game and discuss what exactly is going on with Darryn Peterson's hamstring injury.

Darryn Peterson made his official college debut this week vs. the MIGHTY Green Bay Fightin' Doug Gottliebs and he was as good as advertised. Are his lingering cramp issues a concern? And what should fans expect when the Jayhawks travel to Chapel Hill to face North Carolina on Friday? The guys also discuss KU Football's (yes, they're still playing!) win over Oklahoma State, and wonder if this team could still manage to scratch out a bowl invite.

Darryn Peterson’s making Kansas fans believe again (except for the cramps). Kansas Football’s making them drink again. 

We break down what’s working for Bill Self’s new squad, what’s broken in Lawrence on Saturdays, and why we're not happy with this familiar yet unshakable feeling right now with the Jayhawks.

The biggest Sunflower Shown in more than 15 years has arrived.
