  we are gonna have to hit shots outside of 3 feet today. Although Baylor does play out on shooters. They also in the last game stopped the ball from getting into the middle which we exploited the first match-up. So it will be interesting to see what happens with our bad ball offense. We need a good start, we need shots to fall, and we need to play like the season depends on it. It’s going to take basically the best game we’ve played all year to pull this one out. You know Baylor doesn’t want to go 0-3 against KU.

  @Hawk8086 I doubt that Perry would be spinning on a healthy knee. Teams are scouting his spin move and denying it. He wont do it injured. The staff will get him some good legal pain meds before the game and wrap his leg in the best knee brace money can get, not to mention he has been getting treatments on it Atleast twice per day since the injury. He’ll be ok…or he wont.

  @justanotherfan I believe Foster is a very talented player but also a cancer in the program. Once he realized how good he was he decided he was bigger than the program and acted accordingly…coaches don’t like that and he was benched several times; unfortunately, his attitude was contagious and resulted in frustration to the older, more disciplined players. He is probably one or two years away from being NBA material so the question is: does he grow up, toe the line and play one more year at KSU or does he transfer and sit one year? Given his rocky relation with Weber it is hard to see him staying another year, so maybe he ends up playing in China…which seems to be what Europe used to be.

  @brooksmd I use Firefox almost uniquely with KUBUCKETS with no problems, although I occasionally get some error messages indicating that a plugin is taking too much time, but that seems to be mostly an Adobe Flash/ESPN video problem.

  Thursday legal spin seems to indicate that Cliff has presented everything in his possession to the NCAA. Outside documents still not available to NCAA (which won’t sit down with Cliff until those documents are rendered). Legal counsel looks to be bullying into position for future lawsuit(s) on Cliff’s behalf. Counsel perhaps hopeful that NCAA will continue to stonewall? If so, most probably will turn into a time- extended multi-million dollar lawsuit vs. NCAA and maybe the agent/lending company. KU Hoops left in passive neutered position of tangential onlooker.

  @ZIG I must have missed where Coach Self indicated that Perry is 100%; TTBOMK, what he said is that IF he is 100% he will play. In your own words, this is a “tuneup” game and by definition, those are the ones in which you try new/different things and not the ones you go balls to the wall to win. We know what Perry can do, it would help to know what Mickelson and Lucas can do under actual game conditions, wouldn’t you agree that it would help KU more to tweak the team now than at at the NCAA?

  @BeddieKU23 He is a sophomore now so he would have to sit one year if he transfers. He is not ready for the NBA now but could be in one year; his best bet is to grow up and stay at KSU, but I am not sure how that would work with Weber. I bet KSU wishes it still had Martin whose team just eliminated Missouri last night and sent them to one of their worst seasons ever…not a good time to be a MU fan, not that there ever is such a time

  @Crimsonorblue22 I don’t like Musburger at all. There is a saying…old cowboys never die, they just smell that way…that applies to Musburger; he might not be dead but looks dead and probably smells that way too…eeewww…

  @jaybate-1.0 said: Still, between them and Jamari they can probably scratch out 15-20 of Perry’s missing points and Our perimeter players will have to pick up the rest. We got 30 points and 20 rebounds out of our three backup bigs last game. I’d take that again.

  @wissoxfan83 I think our guys are sick of banging bodies with other B12 teams… especially for the 3rd time. The guys will be relieved to play someone else! Hopefully enough to stomp some arse to keep going in the tourney!

  @wrwlumpy Aw, nooo, lumpy…No shame intended! Your pix was profound to me, as it quickly reminded me of who I was when college age vs how I think now. Now I’d only cringe for the girl’s sake if she had low self esteem, or if I think of medical issues wt-related. Perspectives change as Ive gotten older, new angles to consider…but the hollywood babes (& wife) still are 10-scale judged…all in harmless fun!

  @jaybate-1.0 I like it! I like it aloot! I realize that some of your description here might be a bit of a stretch, or a bit of tongue and cheek. But I also see the actual potential here too. Especially with Landen and Mickey!! Dude, those guys were all out beast mode for us at OU.

  @ralster : Two issues to discuss: Can a team be tough on defense and able to grind it out and win and still be a predominately jump shooting, three ball jacking team on offense? Or do they have to drive the ball and mix it up in the paint on both ends to have this personality? Does toughness mean you cannot open up too much the offense b/c then you “settle” and become content with shooting outside shots? Is KU’s offensive scheme outdated and lacking in ability to allow great players to dribble-drive, exploit individual match ups, take advantage of great shooters, spread the floor, etc. Or are we stuck in a hi-lo design which is great for 3-4 year talented post players and guards who “feed the post” as a first option? Do we still not shoot enough threes or run plays for our best shooters? Not for now, not for this year (too late in the season), but going forward, I believe Coach Self could use a new fresh offensive mind to up our game on that side of the ball.
