KU vs Dawgs Round 2 Game Thread
-
Definitely. Although I would not complain if Tyler were given a look at starting at the 4.
-
@jaybate-1.0 with you. Mind blown that Young couldnāt hit 1 of 3
-
So what is all the Korean spam weāve been getting lately.
Some fan from the WUGs trying to connect without using the translator, or what?
-
@approxinfinity Ya donāt like excuses from the line, i shot over 80% in High school, I know its not highschool but I can still make 7 or 6 of 10 now that i touch a ball bout every 3 months, Its easy in rhythm.

@jaybate-1.0 said:
Iām going with the trey percentage as the decisive factor.
For sure. Frank was COOKIN today.
-
Advance copy of bedoreās work
Spoiler he like Udoka.
-
Lightfoot was efficient as hell, 3 minutes, 4 boards and 3 points.
-
Our very own spy.
-
@BShark I need our ku buckets credentials next time.
-
Shocking ESPN headlines.
Sexworkerville lost.
Huggybearās maulers lost.
Ratso Izzo apologies to his team for the tough schedule.

@jaybate-1.0 lol well in the past I blocked IPs on the server when we got spammed. I havenāt done that this time. I should. I had hoped they would just go away, but I know the world doesnāt work that way, sadly.
-
well that was a nice scrimmage, good to give Frank a LITTLE rest. ā - 28 minutes tonight, hard to take away a lot from a game like this - -I mean letās be serious this was UNC- Ashville - - BUT still good to get our beast some playing time - -letās face it he is not going to be able to dunk every time later in the year when he plays quality big, but he is getting there. - -I really like LaGerald the guy can get to the boards, if he can get his three top start dropping did decent tonight ya just that much better for us. ā -Jackson settling in and looking good - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Spam bots gotta eat too, or something.

@dylans a head scratcher

Our next opponent is even worse if you believe kenpom. The game tonight, LBSU, UMKC etc are good games to get secondary players going. Liked what I saw out of Josh, Graham, Mason, Vick, Coleby and Doke tonight. Svi was okay.
-
Glancing at statsā¦
Doke 8-9 for 17 points!!! Self has decided to put the team on his back 5 minutes at a time. But he needs to watch the TOs and get back on the glass. A Deuce and Three Quarter footer with 3 reebs? Pitiful.
Josh had a really active floor game. Iām loving 4 reebs, 2 steals, 7 assists, 3 blocks, only 1 pop tart, and a partridge in a pear tree.
Frank being a man, but Frankie, donāt let those pop tarts creep up on you.
Devonte? 4 FGAs? Guess he was gassed from 6 boards and 11 assists. Iām still very worried about his knees.
Vick just iced most improved back court player for the pre con. Hyper efficiency. 6-7 FG and 3-4 3pt and and 9 boards!!! Holy cow! Who says you have to have visible legs to glass vac!!!
Bragg and Big LUKE did not look very good, but at the same time they were NOT bad. And thatās improvement.
Coleby didnāt do himself any favors, but he did get 3 reebs in a short time.
Svi is playing himself down the list of rotation players. Heās not playing bad. Heās just not impacting enough.
Lightfoot should get an earlier look next game. Not much earlier, but a little earlier.
-
@jaybate-1.0 except for a couple bad passes, I thought Svi played very well. I really like the one on one defense he is playing right now.
-
Absolutely agree.
But Self is making clear to him that Vick is doing more.
And Josh is doing more.
And Self believe Svi is an explosive player that is supposed to be doing more than gluing.
Self has talked a number of times about Sviās potential to be a major impact player.
Self is saying: this is NOT enough.
-
@jaybate-1.0 self mentioned he was most excited for Vick to see the ball go in
-
@kjayhawks Maybe 2-3 years & a redshirt but heāll get his PT down the road. Would be starting at many mid majors or some p5 schools. Also extremely talented & bright student & well self disciplined young man. Younger bro (HS Junior) is pres recruited & leaning to Air Force Academy. Baby is now 6th grade & 6ā 1"Heāll be recruited over, rebound, & never whine. I talked to his mom Thanksgiving. She was recruited by KU VB & went o Rockhurst. We miss em a lot. 1st class, great, absolutely phenomenal family, DNA, & pedigree. Take it to the bank heās minimum a 4 year soldier that will do anything he can for his team.
-
@globaljaybird I love we get these quality kids!!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 The fact we seem to no longer get Relefords, Reeds, or Chris Pipers at KU or they no longer have the chance to flourish is making my zest for CBB shrink more than just a little. Weāve had our spats thru the years, but HEM & I
ļø agree on one thing for dang sure. OADās are the real fools gold
in the scheme of a condistently great 
program. RCJH all day long 
!
-
@globaljaybird Ya i agree, we have to have guys like that.
-
@globaljaybird there are some pretty quality OAD guys too!
-
If only we could be Duke/UNC and get 5 stars to stay 3-4 years. I suppose we did with Wayne and Perry but they seem to do it all the time.
3-4 year players are definitely important. I will miss Frank and Graham.
