@jayballer67 Assume they are working the logistics of this possibility.

6-Purdue at 15-Marquette at 8 on FS1 is worth checking in on during our breaks tonight. Marquette favored by 5.5 is a surprise to me.

@jayballer67 Yormark is a true businessman and what every conference should be going after Not some person in academia who was an athletic director but has no clue how to negotiate a contract and drive business/$$$ for the conference

@nuleafjhawk I think in 1998 and 2012 had they not choked they would’ve made the NC but got their asses spanked by 30 plus

I need to watch first half. Wasnt at the house. Excited! Will report back.

I think we are experiencing the beginning of higher recruits coming in again. Gone is the NCAA threat. Here is the good NIL revenue stream and a HOFr coach sitting at the top of college basketball right now! I just hope we limit being an OAD farm. It really doesn’t make sense now to go after most of these players unless it is a guy who definitely makes us a contender in that one year. The portal should remain our main recruiting focus. Sprinkle in a few outstanding HS recruits.

@dylans I think the BYU defender thought that was a pass the other day. Not sure if that’s our intent in running it but our guy was acting like a receiver too and defense was looking right at him and not the ball.

@rockchalkjayhawk some of the throws could’ve been better for sure but yesterday it was all on Worthy. He isn’t even trying to toe tap or drag the second foot. He is still used to college and it being one foot. But I think he’ll get there sooner rather than later l. That pass yesterday was out by maybe a half inch

For those of you in the know… Riley Kugel, who was way hyped and about to transfer to KU over the summer, has started just one game so far for Mississippi State. Averaging 7.8 pts per game.

@drgnslayr for sure being a small 2a school we didn’t have a ton of size. I was/am a shade over 6’1 and played forward a lot because at that size I was still taller than half the other players. We had one 6’5 guy that played center for us and he’s a good dude but one of the most uncoordinated guys I’ve ever met lol. I’d just shot fake and dunk on him in practice a couple of times a week. Probably my biggest game was we played Hutch Trinity every year and they had some good players. There 6’7 center ended going to Pitt state and playing for a few years before he had shoulder issues. I held him 7 points and shut him down the last we played them. Its funny because I always joke with my son (9) that the only 3 things he can count on in life is death, Taxes and my jump shot. Admittedly I don’t have a great jumper but I was a really good FT shooter and all district defense. My goal was always to make whomever I was guarding cry because they couldn’t do anything. I was probably a lot like KJ to my team, but I could actually rebound lol. I shot 1/3 in my highschool career from 3 point land. The one I hit I got called for a Technical foul, kid guarding me was running his trap all game (while we were winning by 20 mind you). I hit the shot and told him that was the SBC long distance shot of the game.

Nice to see we got a flip from Norte Dame- — -lanky/lean RB–think they might e trying to play him as WR , decent speed, hopefully works as w gonna need receives

@approxinfinity said in Early season feedback on kuballin’s off season analysis: @dylans oh dont be modest, you can tell us you are a master at peg solitaire Well then, go fuck yourself too! Seriously not joking. You’re the worst.

@BShark said in Oakland Game Thread: @BeddieKU23 said in Oakland Game Thread: Disagree he’s playing too many. Play your depth, injuries happen, if you can minimize the risk of injury with some of the guys right now for the long haul you do it. Injuries and guys getting worn down from too many minutes is a real thing that has happened to Hunt, Juan and KJ. We have 10 that belong, figure it out He always plays this many early, especially in games where we will win anyway. He knows it will be trimmed by conference play but compared to last year the minutes for the big three should hopefully be down. UNC game was more telling. Bill tightens up his rotation when the competition ramps up.

Still a very successful season

Justin Tucker with two misses already today

@kjayhawks That would just tie us with ASU and they hold the tie breaker. – I still fully believe we will host the first weekend of the Tourney
