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?

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 said in KU vs. Louisville:
I liked what I saw from Dawes and Blyden as experienced and hard nosed.
Not sure what there was to like about Blyden tonight, or vs Pitt St. he’s really gotta step up his game and produce. Stripped twice at least today. Didn’t seem confident or very aggressive. One successful drive is a start I guess.
Only an exhibition of course. Still time to sort the rotations and let the new guys get comfortable.
Not seeing a superstar in Stokes so far. He’s got a ways to go. Or Self needs to figure out how and where to get him the ball. His bully ball at least got him to the line, but looks clumsy. Nice passing touch though.
And we held Flory dunk-less!?
