  @BShark That offense creeping up before our own eyes. 4 point difference in AdjEm continues to spread. This team is awesome

  @nuleafjhawk Crown Candy, lol. Yes rough part of town but the East side is like a post apocalypse war zone. That said the stats are misleading, St. Louis county has lots of nice parts, good chunks of it multi-millions nice. And while downtown is under 400k the metro area is pushing 3 million, which is pretty good for the Midwest. But feel like I’ve won the lotto moving to SoCal, will be hard to get me out of here. Big Bear Ski resort is an hour north of me and the beach an hour west. Can be in Vegas or Mexico by lunch time.

  We lost to Dook and Nova because of our end game. We beat Tech and Baylor with our end game. Maybe we are getting better, a bad pass and a lucky 3 by Baylor made that a 3 point game instead of a 8 point one. Just gotta learn from those.

  yes , # 1 let’s finish the season that way, this could very well be our year. On a side note , there is not really very many times I’m going to ever agree with Kentucky fans - - -BUT on this I HAVE to agree. I mean seriously ? - - this is a perfect example how media and others suck up to duke’s butt. - -they go out and get their butt kicked all over the floor by NC State lose by 22 and they drop ONE spot in the Rankings - - ONE - - what’s wrong with this picture? - - Anybody else they are gonna drop at least 3-4-5 spots. Forgot it’s Duke were talking about. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

  @jayballer73 said in Biggest Game of the Year and it's at 11am Thread: @BeddieKU23 said in Biggest Game of the Year and it's at 11am Thread: @dylans Dave is pretty consistent in his minutes. Gives effort, looks to shoot with any inch of freedom when receiving the ball in high post, 12 foot corner etc. There’s a clear drop off from Doke to him but he certainly finds ways to make the most of his minutes since becoming the backup. Dave will progress. I look back and still remember again when asked Coach was ask who had improved the most during the off season. - -Coach didn’t hesitate a second didn’t bat an eye. - - He said David McCormack hands down , not even close - - interesting. He has improved but not sure about the hands down. lol. McCormack to me at times looks sped up, like in hyper drive. Love the kids energy and has played well at times, going to be a solid 4yearplayer. I think we all agree there will be a drop off though for sure at the 5 next season. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY It would be interesting to see Self revisit that comment. Could have been true at the time of the question. Dave has improved a lot since his freshman year no doubt. When comparing him to Sr Azubuike it becomes clear how far away he still is from being that kind of dominate force for KU. Doke was half the player he was as a Soph. I don’t know if we will see a big impact the game at the level Doke has been all season long. It’s really remarkable to see what he’s been able to do.

  Dotson or Doke or both?

  @kjayhawks I think Dotson has more name recognition at this point which could be why he’s getting more love. This is a wide open race since I don’t think any of the top teams have a standout player in the media. No Zion to gush over. I think Doke helped himself tremendously on Saturday. I think right now Obi Toppin & Luke Garza are probably the Top 2. They have both been outstanding. What may be more criminal is the fact KU has two top players that could be First Team All-American and may only get 1 due to them being on the same team… It’s really rare the voters put two on the first team. Dotson, Doke, Garza, Toppin, Marcus Howard, Malachi Flynn, Payton Pritchard and maybe a few others seem like the most likely candidates at this point.

  @drgnslayr said in F-bomb Roy....: I get all the reasons why UNC isn’t good. I just don’t get it why they are this bad. It makes me wonder if Roy needs to hang it up. I don’t think he does with the recruiting class he has coming in. He signed 5 Top 50 kids. 4 of them made the All American Game. The team he has just doesn’t have it. His best player is meant for the NBA. Usually he has guys that are College Players and buy in.

  @KirkIsMyHinrich said in Big 12 gets what? I think 3 MAYBE 4 in tourney ?: How can Oscar Tshiebwe look great against Kansas/Doke and then only get 1 point and 5 rebounds against TCU? Something that makes you scratch your head and go hmmmm for sure. - - West Virginia just go through periods where they just can’t/don’t score.

  Best chance to win in March is to get good matchups. Predictions this time of year, when the possible matchups are not narrowed, is pretty much just entertainment.
