EMPORIA STATE HORNETS
-
@JayHawkFanToo who are the announcers?
-
From the ESPN web site…
"The 2016-17 season begins from Honolulu on Friday, Nov. 11, with the fifth annual State Farm Armed Forces Classic, just under a month before the 75th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor. ESPN’s Saturday Primetime Presented by DIRECTV crew of Dan Shulman and Jay Bilas will be on hand for the doubleheader – pitting pre-season ranked No. 13 Arizona against No. 10 Michigan State (7 p.m. ET) and No. 12 Indiana vs. No. 3 Kansas (9 p.m.) on ESPN. Reporters Andy Katz and Molly McGrath will also be on hand from the Stan Sheriff Center on the campus of the University of Hawaii with surrounding events at the U.S. Navy Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam."
Doesn’t look like we will see Holly Rowe on the sidelines, On a happier note, looks like we get a break from Musburger who will be calling SEC games the upcoming season.
-
@JayHawkFanToo thank goodness! Got tired of mushburger
-
I can’t stand mush and Fran. Will we have holly for big 12 games?
-
@HawkChamp Make Bilas our authorized announcer for our games. If not him, then I could listen to Bobby Knight.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 I hope so - I like Holly. Bob Wisschusenn (sp?) and Fran aren’t a bad combo - too bad we can’t get Bilas every game.
-
@HawkChamp I really dislike Fran!
-
Hey…I already posted that link above…just kidding…LOL
-
@JayHawkFanToo didn’t see the whole link
-
This is Emporia State’s weight training consists of lol!
-
-
@JayHawkFanToo I did, didn’t see it first time.
-
Time to update the eye glass prescription. I just ordered my first set of hearing aids…ouch on the cost.

I have a very good Emporia State story from about 37 years ago that I’m unable to share with a mixed audience. Suffice to say, I have fond memories of my one visit in life to Emporia State University.

Damn nice picture JNew is using now. Reveals the inner Cary Grant. About goddamn time. Thank you, Mrs. JNew. I know its old fashioned to look after a husband’s appearance these days, but even the most dashing men need an assist from time to time.
jaybate 1.0’s father’s advice: Never let a woman pick your suit, or shirt. Always let her pick your tie. And tie it for the occasion. Fore-in-hand for casual. Windsor for cutting deals.

I feel better about Washburn now that I see WSU got all they could handle from Augusta lol 73-67.
-
What a coincidence? A couple years back I was in Emporia and there saw a commune there called the Children of KUSteve-Ra!
It’s a cult that believes Erik Von Daniken channeled an alien from an exo planet named Ramblin’ Man 1.09387 to father a new race on the earth that would one day cut Bruce Weber’s hair and weave it into parabolic mirror capable of communicating with the civilization on Ramblin’ Man 1.09387.
(Note: all fiction. Completely and totally. No malice. @KUSTEVE is an honorable alias and this was just a joke.)
-
@jaybate-1.0 a few years back I was also in emporia.
-
@kjayhawks and I don’t think our guys could play much worse than the other night
-
Good to know, but I did not see an @Crimsonorblue22-Ra Church.
-
The Amazing Batenac 1.0 predicts…
Emporia State: 47
KU: 103

By 50 to Arkansas yiiiiiikes. Though Self will play around again, so it’s certainly possible that KU wins by less.
I hopped on google and found the box score: http://www.arkansasrazorbacks.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/stats-149870-190636.pdf

I’m anxious to see how Devonte plays tonight after only scoring 6 points against Washburn. With Indiana only 5 days away, I sure would like to see more balance from our expected leaders in this year’s campaign. What scoring averages are you expecting this year? Lucas, 10; Mason,14; Graham 14; Jackson, 12; Bragg, 10; Vick, 8; and Svi, 8. I’m hoping for balanced scoring and no goose eggs by our leaders. RCJH
-
@stoptheflop No problems with Devonte. Zip, zero, nada, imo. He’ll score when it counts.
-
I can see an intense first half where the starters build a huge lead and a second half where there is a lot of experimentation.
-
Oh oh, apparently rebounds are a big thing with Bill Self.
