The tournament was rigged for Kentucky. They got to play all home games but one. They had to play one away game at Louisville and lost handily.
The Hawks got to play one home game and it wasn't on campus. I'm glad Davis-Steel won at Kentucky. It was great to see the crowd file out as losers.
I see KU is in the mix for former Michigan St. big man Jaxon Kohler. Averaged 12.5 ppg and 8.9 rpg last season so what are the chances of him actually ending up in Lawrence?
@kjayhawks2.0 said in KU @ Arizona St 8pm CT:
we had 21 offensive rebounds and 4 second chance points. Wow!
Yep. This defined the game and it's stunning.
If you look at this team's record with these remarkably anomalistic, highly improbable and statistically aberrational numbers, you might be tempted to throw a couple of these losses out.
They are pretty good if you take away the weirdness. Or is it weirdness? What is the norm?
It's just hard to know whether this team can still gel and harden and normalize into its full potential at this point.
@Tallturd1 Stokes has a low ceiling IMO. He thinks he still in highschool, bigger and stronger than his opponents. Thats not the case at this level. He drives into the trees and gets swatted more often than not, he has to be saved by the whistle. I don’t think he has a quick enough burst to get around an average B12 defender. But thinking positively if he stays healthy, he has a chance to get better. That was always the trouble the DP. He had potential to be great had luck been a little better but I just don’t see it with Stokes. If he’s the top pick in next years draft, it says a lot about how weak this cycle is.
