We play on the 20th.

Yes!! Except for the misplayed ball they overwhelmed Cal Baptist. Enthusiastic crowd out at Rock Chalk Park. We don’t play again until the 20th, either Louisville or Kentucky…the NCAA likes enticing matchups even in soccer. Unfortunately for the locals that round is in Durham, then it says ‘campus sites’ for the next round. If the seeds hold we should be favorites against either. Then maybe a 3rd round match with #1 ND…just down the road in South Bend? Fingers crossed!

Is this guy named Lebron?

@FarmerJayhawk Man I was watching him play his first game at DePaul, me and about 100 other people were actually there and he mysteriously left the game and never came back. Since that game I’ve had two different cancers and organs removed, become a father in law, had 2 grand children, ran a halfmarathon, attended an elite 8 game that KU played in and won and took up a whole new sport called disc golf! That’s been a long time!

Great thread! I was travelling otherwise I’d have joined you. Everyone else was grumpy!

@rockchalkjayhawk I spend a good amount of time watching Illini basketball and what you’re seeing is what you’re going to get from White.

Agreed on Elmarko. I think he needs a scenery change.

@Crimsonorblue22 Yes, they’re awesome to see. Been privileged to spend a lot of time in Northern Wisconsin where they’re fairly common.

TTech not shooting many FT’s but a strange flagrant call on Illinois gave them a chance but they missed the 3. Could have had a 5 point play to tie.

Some good matchups tonight. Michigan almost gets upset by Wake Forest. Illinois small lead over TTech. It’s wrapping up on FS1. 5 minutes to go. Creighton-Gonzaga playing. Louisville beats Kentucky, a result that looks good for us. BYU is only up 1 on Delaware with 10 minutes left.

@Crimsonorblue22 Cool! Great to see. Not sure if you saw my post above about seeing them in lawrence in the 80’s.

ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK KU!!

This has been a really nice defensive effort tonight.

Great night for northern lights even as far south as Chicago. I saw northern lights from the Campanile once while I was a KU student. That was amazing to see that night.

Rosie’s best game as a Jayhawk?

This offense seems to be a lot sharper than the 1st half.

I wish the AD’s of Wisconsin and KU would get together. Third time this year games have been at the same time.

Storr has made 8-11 3’s this year and averaging 18.5 for mississississippi

Rosario, 11 pts 2 boards. Ngala. 6 points Calderon? Never knew we had such a named guy. Council 4 points, 3 assists. Tiller 4, Bidunga 4. White 5 boards and 3 assists.

Defense holding them to 7-30 shooting. Only 12 boards for them, 25 us.

We don’t seem to miss Pattyson too much.

Our team knows how to miss FTs

@approxinfinity God answers Elmarkos prayers

Defense saving the offense. Nice shot Rosie

Why isn’t the superstar playing?

Texas ATM? Seems like a good name for a school in the NIL era.

@drgnslayr @BShark I couldn’t watch but listened to the first half. Even though I couldn’t see everytime his name was uttered nothing happened. I remember thinking this dude has to be better than this.

I should say this. He and Jamari hung around Lawrence. Kudos to them in this day of the grass is always greener. We should honor them for their loyalty but i seriously doubt either will go down in KU lore.

@Crimsonorblue22 Sorry, I responded to this but must have forgot to hit submit. I didn’t watch the game as we were with family this weekend.

@FarmerJayhawk She has breast cancer according to a tweet of hers I saw.

OK, fire Lance. Get ready for the next decade of blowout losses.

@webjay Check his win totals and get back to me on never plays to win.

@webjay said in Zona fb:

Idiot.

Who?

Our turn for a miracle.

I think I’ve seen this game before.

Take away 2 ints and then they can’t see what we all saw?

@webjay The way our defense been playing? I thought it was the right call.

That was a bad spot on the 3rd down but it looks like we got the first.

Dude you catch that ball and you’ve got 6 points.

Knock on wood, but our D has played really well today. Even have two turnovers that by fiat is not allowed by an opponent in Tempe so they’ve just had to make stops all game.

Screw these refs so bad.

We usually don’t praise kickers but we got a great one.

Still pissed at the refs

@patoh3 That’s all I need to hear to be officially pissed off.

I’m with elderly parents, and others, watching but no sound. That appeareth to be a bogus hold call taking points off the board?

I will be monitoring. Driving to Wisconsin for a minor thrill tonight. I’ll be watching a kid I taught and followed his career closely go up against the Badgers in Madison. He starts for Northern Illinois. Had a 14 point, zero turnover, 10 assist night against Louisiana Monroe Monday. His highlight that I’ve seen was watching him throw a half court alley oop pass on a fast break. Oh, I should mention it was in the 8th grade state championship game. If you take a moment and check it out on BIG Network, he sticks out on the court for his blond hair.

I heard we haven’t lost to an ACC team since 2o18. Hope the streak continues on.

Colorado was 5th in the RPI and we’re 9th. Didn’t realize there’s a college soccer RPI.

Lots of guys from KU in the pros this year, but seemingly some taking their swan song. Not sure why Och and Grady’s minutes are limited in Toronto, but they are. Wilson doing about the same with the Nets. Embiid’s production is waning as is Higgins…or is it Wiggins? Oubre and Grimes are still productive pro’s but I am way more impressed by grinders who hung around KU and made a name here for themselves like SVI. He scored 28 tonight for Utah!! Braun’s still starting, but not scoring a ton, which isn’t his role anyways.

Oh and in 5 minutes of action Hunter was 1-2 and had a block and 2 fouls and 2 turnovers. That’s a lot of bad to fit into 5 minutes. But those are his only minutes he’s played.

How about that! The women come back from a 0-1 deficit against 12th ranked Colorado and 3rd seed in the tournament and defeat the Bovines 2-1. Spectacular finish to tie the match early in the 2nd and then with 15 a youngster got her first collegiate goal, kind of an own goal actually as it was deflected past the goalie.

This is a really strong KU team, despite their 7th seed in the tournament. They have a 14-4-3, with a tie against 2nd ranked FSU. They have a prolific offense and have shown remarkable comeback ability. They play 8th seeded BYU in the conference championship, you read that right. They were ranked until we beat them (read about that match just above).

When Lovie Smith got hired by the Bears nearly 20 years ago he said his goal was to beat the Packers, something not happening much at that point. He started out 7-3 against them, finished 8-11. I’m not close to firing Leopold, but having a coach make a statement like this really would endear him to the KU faithful.

@drgnslayr I listen to Locked on Jayhawks, but I find it a bit dull as he talks all sort of advanced stats and my eyes glaze over trying to make sense of it all.

So yes, it’s that Morris, rape charges dropped. He plays for Bethune-Cookman. Crazy story.

Wait Arterio Morris sounds familiar. Hard to keep track. Did he play for us? When? Was he the guy who raped a woman in the dorm?
