@rockchalkjayhawk I want no part of Auburn, that I will tell you

@DCHawker we actually have 6 Quad 1 wins after yesterday. I think we get a 8 seed only if we lose the first game in the B12 but if we win a few games I’d bet on a 6 seed. Win the whole thing it’s a 4 or 5 pending on what happens at other tournaments.

@Crimsonorblue22 I’d say he was lucky because people helped him leave that lifestyle and the road he was likely headed down. Many times I have criticized Juan’s play and admitted that his game is a style I’m not necessarily a fan of(dozens on here have aswell). That doesn’t mean I have any ill will towards him on a personal level. He’s a Jayhawk so I wish him well regardless tho I am ready for the changing of the guard at the PG spot. You can criticize the player while still hoping for the best, coaches do it daily. Edit: his brother was killed in 2019, his dad passed in 2017.

Anyone else laugh at ESPN having us at an 8 coming into today? I don’t think I’ve seen a rating system with us worse than the mid 20s. I’d think we are a 6 seed at the moment

@rockchalkjayhawk I hope he presses charges on her, supposedly they have video and photo evidence of her assaulting him. I feel bad for him, there are some terrible women in the world as well as men they just don’t get the attention they should.

@Bosthawk Juan’s little brother was murdered by a supposed friend in his own home back in 2019. Was a big story in the 2022 FF run. Juan’s father whom was a notorious gangster died a few years earlier. Juan was very lucky and credits the Braun family for helping turn his life around. I was lucky enough to meet CBs mom at a game in 2021 and she is a fiery woman that would put most people in their place. As much as I dislike Juan’s game at times, it would be impossible to not root for him. A lot like Jamari Traylors story, Kansas basketball may have saved both of their lives.

I am proud of these seniors for today and I don’t want that to get overlooked. This is maybe the most frustrating senior class I can recall but they really played well today. Seniors accounted for 74 of 83 points, 19 of 22 assists and 26 of 36 rebounds. Going forward we definitely need more from Rylan and the bench but have a DAY!

@Texas-Hawk-10 ya the more I think about it, the more I want to win it m. Maybe our only shot at some hardware

Juan with 7 assists and 7 points in the second half, nice to see I thought that would be the norm for him this season and he would average around 10 and 10.

I’ll take my usual stance on the B12 tournament, win it all or lose the first game. Although with the way with this team had played if we won, it will be something

@Texas-Hawk-10 said in This is The Feel Good Edition KU-AZ:

Zeke not inbounding, Self has learned in that situation.

Praise the lord

42 straight on senior day and 30 some odd years of 20 plus wins. It’s a down year but we still held on to some streaks

Really pleased with the way everyone played but the bench and Rylan.

Seniors saving us today folks

@Crimsonorblue22 said in This is The Feel Good Edition KU-AZ:

Juan has 7

Juan has a had a very solid half here after a ghost like preformance in the first

Zeke also has 6 assists after that last basket by Hunt.

If Zeke can shoot like this away from Allen it makes us a completely different team

Remember when I said we needed something from the Guards a few minutes ago? Zeke 6 point and Juan 5 in the last few minutes.

That a baby Zeke

Good job getting down hill Zeke

Bench has 2 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist aint gonna cut it

Like no one even made a remote attempt to get back on defense there

If we could get our guards to do a GD thing on either end

Have a game hunt

Decent half, I’ll take it

Hunt playing well so far today

Juan still leaving his feet for passes smh

Wow after the bail out on the other end no love foul

@dylans @jay4ever they have trace those accounts and no one them follows anything Kansas related and 3 of them are fakes all together. Not an excuse to act that way but hopefully Zeke has moved on from it. You gotta be very mentally tough to play at this level.

@bskeet I think the answer is all of the above. We looked much better earlier in the season to me. It was like the Mizzou game broke us in a lot of ways. MSU to me maybe the most improved team in CBB this season. From unranked and thought to be mid B10 level to a top 10 team. The ACC and B10 are down this season from what I’ve seen of them. The Sec has looked far and away the best conference but I’d almost put the Big East at #2 right right and the B12 #3.

Odd note here…We were having our worst year in 42 seasons but we still beat the regular season B10 and ACC champions

The raiders just traded a third round pick for Geno smith

Sad for Thuney but I hope they can sign someone that isn’t injury prone to cover the LT spot. We have Humphrey as a back up plan IMO they need to trade or draft one

Man I hope Juan, Zeke, Hunter and KJ have a helluva game Saturday. We get a decent draw and can make the sweet 16. I want that for them and appreciate what they have done for Kansas basketball even if it isn’t much. But I have never been more ready for next year at the beginning of March ever. I’m thinking Langford, Giddens, Rush, Chalmers, Taylor, Johnson, Bmac, Wiggins, Dotson…. We are Kansas basketball. NBA caliber guards playing above the rim and catching lobs. We haven’t had that since Ochai and Braun left and I long for it to return. No more walking the the ball up the court, getting it and running next season. Pushing the the ball up the court and not dribbling in circles continually. God people used to fear the hell out of us running.

I hope to see some athletes at the guard spots for us next season. I think Elmarko, Mari and Peterson are already BFS (bigger, faster and stronger) than the likes of Diggy, Juan and Zeke. I do like Diggy being a back up guard next year tho.

@bskeet I’ll say this it, I don’t agree with all of the crap but I do like the idea of having the information of where all of our tax money is being blown. Read an article last week that talked about how we spent 200 million testing monkeys to see if they were more sexually active on cocaine, spoiler they were. We all know for fact the US government is one of the worst corporations in the world. Any business ran under their practices would be done in 6 months. Literally the most inefficient on the globe

https://x.com/rockchalkblog/status/1896777578356310070?s=46

Honestly Diggy has earned more minutes and with how Zeke has been playing I’d consider starting him. I know he is a huge liability on defense but Zeke ain’t guarded a some all season.

It is a very interesting time right now that’s for sure.

Juan looks bad when you play him beside guys who aren’t scoring. He’s an assist guy. I could be wrong but isn’t he averaging double-digit scoring this year? His whole stat package would lift considerably if he was on a better team. He’s just the wrong PG on this team. We’d be better with a Frank Mason type PG. But with a better team, Juan suddenly looks right… like in 2022.

He’s averaging 9.1 points and 5.6 assists currently championship year he averaged 8.9 and 6.2 so pretty dang close to a wash. Thats one of my biggest Juan (KJ as well besides Dook and the last 2 games) complaints he flat out has not gotten better in any aspect of the game. He’s on pace for career lows in both FT shooting percentage and 3 shooting percentage. We heard the last two years it was because he was playing too much but he is averaging 3 minutes less per game and that’s with Shak being unavailable for about half of our games. Both him and KJ would be great back ups playing 12-17 minutes per game but it could be argued that they have developed less than any 4 plus year player in both the Self and Williams eras.

@Texas-Hawk-10 I think Clemence is just a waste of space at this point unfortunately

Okay so what are we thinking here team wise next season? I hope Diggy stays and uses that extra year so whom else do we want to return? Obviously Flory, Mari and Elmarko. I’m really thinking that it I’m just worried that guys in the portal won’t want to come here thinking it’s purgatory and it’s how the transfers have worked out here.

@approxinfinity said in Lets take the lead into the first TV timeout!:

Dajuans stats against big 12 opponents this year are pretty comparable to naadir tharpes.

At this point I ld say it’s a wash to whom I’d rather have and also whom is the worst PG of Self era

@TYOHawk I guess Tyshawn got on X and told him to toughen up. Seems like a lot of former players are calling out the Charmin softies

Frank criticized the leadership on Twitter on Saturday. Devon had a vague tweet today as well. Safe to say the former guys aren’t happy

Well they out a lot of blood, sweat and tears into this program while not getting the 6 figure salaries most of these guys are

@TYOHawk yes times a hundred he has several wide open looks. Instead he likes to dribble in a big circle to underneath the basket, beating his man .2% of the time and leaving his feet to throw a crappy pass.

@TYOHawk in fairness to Juan, Zeke has 1 made 3 point FG in the last 3 games and 13 turnovers lol
