Tonight's Huge Game!
-
Coleby in early - nice position…
-
@wissox he goes up so straight most of the time
-
@Bwag He didn’t appear at full speed to me to be going straight up.
-
ha, travel again for faylor
-
Getting hurt on the offensive boards…
-
@DCHawker group rebounding
-
ack coleby misses bunny underneath
-
Coleby with a weak O rebound, then a strong rebound at the other end. He’s playing pretty well so far.
-
Our guys have to put a body on somebody. Baylor is too tall to play tappy ball with
-
colbey looking decent, grabbing some rebounds
-

All we need is a few minutes from him where he doesn’t hurt us - anything else is a plus. I think he’s given us that and more the last couple of games…
-
@StLJhawk Coleby had a pretty ugly shot a few possessions ago.
-
@DCHawker And we need the refs to call a foul on Baylor when three guys converge on Colbey and maul him causing him to lose the ball!

So, he missed the rim by a foot - he’s a little rusty…
-
@stoptheflop he totally did, and then couldn’t hold a rebound, but still… he seems to be in the right place making some moves and grabbing some loose balls.
-
POY
-
frank sinks two FTs
-
This is definitely the most solid, balanced Baylor team we’ve seen…
-
mason misses bounce pass. and Vick is in there
-
Was that not a walk?
-
JJ has continued hitting from deep - huge bonus if he can keep that up…
-
Is JJ becoming a 3pt threat?
-
lots of faylor offensive rebounds for second chances. then josh answers!
-
-
@DCHawker if he is open, he needs to take it.
-
@HawkChamp definitely
-
We need to keep pushing it at every opportunity and convert on these transition chances.
-
refs are staying out of it tonight surprisingly
-

Agree - just don’t want him to lose the aggressiveness in taking it to the hole and drawing fouls…
-
@DCHawker if he hits it, it counts as 3 vs 2 and it opens up driving lanes if they can’t sag off him.
-
Is everyone at the game tonight. Only a few of us here

Don’t think he’ll lose aggressiveness. He still takes it too hard some times.

2 threads and about equal numbers on both - maybe a couple of more here…
-
i know, dualing threads, maybe head over to the other one…
-
Baylor’s got it working right now. Killing us on the boards
-
@stoptheflop We have to be able to score some down low and keep their bigs engaged. LL has missed a couple of bunnies - he simply won’t go up strong…
-
It looks like this thread is being abandoned…
-
Outside shooting has abandoned us.
-
@Bwag said:

Live and die by - we have no interior offensive presence unless JJ is posting up, and he can’t do that against this team…
-
This thread is losing bodies like our team to the other game thread.
-
@Bwag Oh well - go with the flow I guess…
-
Motley can’t miss at the moment. 3 defenders and he makes it look easy
-
Going, going…
-
Baylor has 11 offensive RB’s and we are shooting 35%. Kinda tells the story
-
We got them right where we want them. Time to break out the can of whoop ass.
-
I know you missed Fran last night. Here’s his butt hurt tweets from last night.
Fran Fraschilla @franfraschilla 1h 1 hour ago Trying to beat Kansas in Allen Fieldhouse is like trying to beat the “house” in Vegas. The odds are not with you.
Fran Fraschilla @franfraschilla 58m 58 minutes ago Anybody who has coached knows that there are some places that you just have to be 10 points better than the home team.
Fran Fraschilla @franfraschilla 36m 36 minutes ago My Manhattan team had 45 game win streak at Draddy Gym. You are always at an advantage when you are “supposed to win.” Officials are human.
-
That last tweet from Fran you posted is downright offensive and implies a pre-arranged outcome and that officials are helping KU win at AFH. I had to go to tweeter to make sure the quotes around “supposed to win” were his and not added by you for emphasis…and they are indeed Fran’s. KU’s AD should demand a retraction and an apology from Fraschilla and request that ESPN no longer assigns him to cover KU games…no chance of that happening; Zenger’s answer will likely be to black out every KU game Fraschilla announces. SMH.
-
@BeddieKU23 Fran’s not wrong about teams needing to be 10 points than KU to win in AFH, but it’s also like that at Cameron, Dean Dome, and Rupp as well.
As for implying Baylor was playing 8 on 5, that’s a load of crap. Refs were letting both teams play the entire game and were consistent about it. There was also no need to tighten up the whistle at any point since things never got chippy or even close to being on verge of being chippy. Last night’s officials did a good job of establishing the type of play early they were going to allow early on and were consistent with that style of play all night which is what players and coaches want more than anything else out of the officials.
-
Which is why his comments just reinforce what we know about Fran. He’s literally an idiot that has a clear as day bias against KU.
2nd game in a row where officiating was really good.
-
@BeddieKU23 and we know why crims can’t stand the lil pecker head
