  Owens fell in love with the stall offense and it killed team after team.

  @BeddieKU23 said in The portal.: @BShark said in The portal.: John Buggs is a name to monitor. Assuming that is the 13th guy spot? Does nothing good besides shoot the 3. Having a hard time finding just how many schools he’s been to, transferred 3 times since 23, think its 5 schools including Juco, wow. 68-99 made shots were from 3. Literally doesn’t do a single other thing at average level. Crazy. Yeah JCL type player. In his own words he said he doesn’t care what role/minutes he gets. Wants to be on a winning team and get paid (even end of bench KU money is better than the places he has been). Still working to see how legit this is from KU’s side.

  @BeddieKU23 I heavily advise KU to hire me as a GM. I’m a people person with vast sales experience. I’ll go out there and find all those private NIL deals for our players that will not impact their school NIL cap. Every day we go without a GM we are missing out!

  @MR11 I’m sure you are spot on. And since he usually likes that 1:2:2, like @Texas-Hawk-10 mentioned, it definitely requires some practice.

  He is young and only played basketball in the States for a few years now. Just part of his growth that’s to come.

  @BigBad said in NCAA Tournament Discussion: Modern basketball in a nutshell. Down 2 in the bonus and you get nothing going to the basket. You attempt a half ass elevator screen to free up a 28’ three. Yes I know there were other options before that last one. But this modern chuck every 3 imaginable has just led to kids settling for bad long shots. Perhaps a bad shot in the bigger picture but was it a bad shot for Sharp? Kid takes a lot of those kinds and hits them too. Play call wasn’t great, but perhaps just better execution by the defense. Sharp doesn’t get the shot off due to a great close out.

  @kuballin10 I do still think this topic is generally true as a whole tbh. People expect huge leaps from returning players and that has happened with some guys it’s because they put the work in. Others like KJ were just genuinely about already maxxed out when they got here. His per 40 stats are pretty similar every year for example and he was a hard worker. Some guys just can’t develop in some aspects.

  @approxinfinity said in Staff changes for 2025-2026: Ok. Thanks guys… do you feel the absence of a GM will put us at a competitive disadvantage this off season? Do we have enough cabbage to field the roster we want? Without any semblance of transparency in this new NIL era, these questions are impossible to answer. For any public institution, all $$$ transactions should be recorded for all to see. Who knows, maybe Self and Co. are brilliant money managers.
