@kuballin10 You really shouldn’t listen to your uncles cousin sister anymore. She has led you down a very dark road of bad KU ball info. May god have mercy on your soul :<

@RockkChalkk said in Oh No Huggins:

Here we go… someone said a bad word, thank god we have so many social justice warriors able to come to the rescue of all us fragile people that cant handle it and make sure this bad person is punished as if he is the flesh and blood of satan himself.

Wait… are you seriously suggesting that what he did was appropriate? How would you feel if Bill said that? It’s not just a bad word my man, it’s a slur being used to attack a group of people. His statement was ignorance at best and malice at worst…

Death. Taxes. Kuballin10 complaining.

all in good fun guys. Have a great Friday. Hopefully we get good news this afternoon, if not, next man up.

@jayballer67 said in KU/Big 12 NBA draft decisions thread:

Mercy seen in a draft off CBS that had Ochai going # 7 to the Kings. Mercy , now come on be honest who in Earth would of ever thought Ochai would EVER have a chance to be drafted that high when he 1st stepped foot on Campus?- I figured he would be solid/good but projected at # 7 ? - Jumpin Gee Hossie Fats Maynard.

Also saw they had Christan as the # 25th pick going to the Spurs - - Awesome

That’s awesome! Hopefully that holds. It really speaks to Och’s work ethic and how much he improved during his time here. Also, what a cool story for a Kansas kid out of Burlington who lead his HS team to 3 straight state titles, a natty, and now he gets a chance at the league. So jealous (I’ll just blame my bad jump shot on being 5’8" 165, right?..right…?)!

Definitely gonna miss both of these guys. Especially Christian’s fire. I loved seeing that from a Kansas kid!

I want one more year of Furph :< and to have him in opposite corners as Liam raining 3’s…

Long time lurker here, but I couldn’t stay silent any longer. Those above me who feel booing their own team is ok, that we should immediately fire our coach, that our players don’t care, etc etc - just stop. It’s people like you that I never go back to that other site as it runs rampant there. Win, lose, we are Jayhawks. I’ve been a fan since my dad took me to the Phog as a little guy and fell in love with it all. Went to school there for 6 years and camped for every single game. Had great wins and hard losses, but that’s part of the game. I completely understand it’s upsetting, but to target and boo your own team? Sad. Hell I think leaving early is sad. You know this is wrong and if you don’t, well, you’re just another privileged fan KU has so many of.

These guys bust their ass all year long. They clearly played hurt today, show at least a modicum of respect.

Sorry for the rant and I hate that this is my first post… just something I’m passionate about. Rock Chalk.

I don’t think I’ve ever been so disappointed to see us land a recruit/transfer, let alone a former 5 star. To be fair I don’t know the kid or the situation extensively, but ugh… def not excite about rooting for someone accused of his deeds. I guess this gets filed as one of those moments we trust Bill and the staff! I must admit I was kinda excited about the possibility of that Quaker entering the portal (Dingle), but this seems to seal that deal. There is still a lot that can and will change before June. Hopefully we get some good news early next week!

Sorry if this has become a sore subject lol, just letting my feelings out in my safe Jayhawk Tree (before I go back to lurking ^^)

@BShark I know it’s a pipedream, but I’m hoping to have Hunter fill the 2 spot. I know he is also a smaller guard, but he was a great defender last year and was a huge part of ISU making it as far in the tourney as they did. Bill has shown he loves having two primary ball handlers on the floor at the same time, but I’m not sure how Hunter feels about sharing PG duties with Juan. From what little I’ve heard, Tyrese wasn’t sold on the idea of playing with Juan, but I don’t really know.

If that doesn’t work out, then maybe Malachi Smith? Terrific rebounder and a go to bucket getter. I haven’t seen him announce any kind of list of interested parties, but I’d be very surprised if we haven’t reached out already. This of course would mean someone has to be shown the door unfortunately, but Mosley + Hunter/Smith would be at the top of my wishlist.

@BeddieKU23 Man is gonna look like father time if he holds to his no “shaving stance until punished” stance.

@BeddieKU23 said in Morris Dismissed:

I disagree wholeheartedly that this was handled by Bill and KU well. To each their own opinion though.

He was brought into the school and into basketball program before his previous case had resolved. A day after everyone got lucky the case was dropped, he was suspended from the program for the Rape Allegation and is now charged with such.

There is no way you can convince me this was handled correctly. Try explaining to the victim and the family that any of this is okay.

Texas Hawk 10 isn’t suggesting that the act Morris committed is okay, just that the way Bill handled the ordeal was handled about as good as you could given the circumstances. Do you really think Bill/KU are “okay” with any of this? Come on. We can all continue this tired debate on whether Bill should have or should not have given Morris a second chance, but this was Morris’s action and his alone. Horrible situation all around and my heart goes out to the victim. Thank goodness he is gone.

Quick Edit: The script could also have flipped to where Morris gets his head straight and learns how to be a better man under the staff here. It unfortunately didn’t go that way, but Morris only has himself to blame for that.

@BShark @FarmerJayhawk

I need updates. Are we cooked on DP?

@kjayhawks said in Crap on Jeff Grimes thread:

@FarmerJayhawk I thought the pay was really good maybe @PharmacyHawk knows better. My sister in law went to the Pharmacy school and had been a pharmacist for 20 years. Her husband doesn’t work and they live 500k house and drive brand new vehicles so I assume they are doing plenty good. She does end up working 6 days a week most the time.

It’s certainly not bad at all, but as Farmer references, I wouldn’t call it great by any means. Especially when most pharmacists suffer from horrible working conditions and experience burnout in their first few years out of school when they are just digging themselves out of $110k+ student loans.

I never went into this degree with money being the focal point. It’s nice, sure, but my goal was always to help people and I didn’t want an MD’s hours lol.

Edit: I also don’t want to completely derail this thread, but having to abide by people who have absolutely zero medical knowledge (insurance companies) or the costs of modern healthcare, makes you jaded REAL fast.

@nuleafjhawk said in Crap on Jeff Grimes thread:

@FarmerJayhawk I hope he has better hours than “only open until 6 and closed on the weekends Walgreens”

Unfortunately there is a reason most don’t stay in the field. I was in the last “small” class before they expanded and out of all the classmates I still talk to, I’m one of the few that are still trucking.

@FarmerJayhawk said in Crap on Jeff Grimes thread:

@nuleafjhawk she gave me a vaccine in her kitchen once so the service is immaculate

This is the way.

@jayballer67 Yup. 100%.

@jayballer67 Nah - Wiggs/Selby were both #1 overall.

@jayballer67 Not necessarily, with Philon decommitting we are currently sitting with one 1 open schollie.

@BeddieKU23 And Liam? Hmmph.

Give me Javon clear Kugel and let’s ride.
