Frank Mason missed his first five shots Monday night against Oklahoma at Allen Fieldhouse. It was senior night and Mason, Kansas’ 5-foot-11 guard, is a senior.
A darn good one, too. Maybe the best senior in the country. Heck, maybe the best player in the country.
But the start of the OU game wasn’t going well. Kansas was flat and Mason was out of sorts.
You couldn’t tell it by his face, though. Mason’s face never changes. I take that back, he did grimace after one of his bounce passes, intended for freshman Josh Jackson, was errant and went out of bounds.
