Motley's Drue vs 7 and a half Eligible Scholarship Players Game Thread
-
Down 6
-
Way to close the half Frank!
-
Well, 6 is better than 8…
-
1st made basket by POY!
-
It only took mason 20 minutes to figure it out
-
Man. We just got stupid with the ball. Can’t lose focus just b/c we were getting out rebounded. Also, Landen… Use the damn white square… see Josh flying at the rim and throwing bullets against the backboard that go in? WHITE SQUARE.
-
Who cares KU is down six. They couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn in this first half, and is only 6 down. Geez
-
@BeddieKU23 but hey, better later than never
-
@DCHawker Much better!
-
@DoubleDD True. They played very well and we played average/below average. Have to come out strong and deliver the first strike.
-
I’m fully expecting Bill to come out and pants Scott Drew in front of 16,3
-
The shots are going to fall in the second half.
-
JJ basically has half our points, rebounds and blocks…We’re gonna need the rest of the guys to contribute at least smidgen in the second half…
-
Does LL lead the league in missed layups?
-
@cragarhawk An excellent question.
-
This is good for our guys and will help us in the tournament. Baylor has almost unmatched length and they are skilled as well. Unlike in previous years, Baylor and West Virginia started strong and stayed strong and are legitimate top ten teams. This will be beneficial for us.
-
@DCHawker DG’s got 8 points as well. Playing decently I guess.
-
@approxinfinity Lucas was 6-6 against Kentucky
-
I missed the earlier chat. Were you guys tearing Svi a new one? Dude needs to stop being so damn timid. Where’s Big Shot Svi from last game? People were getting double teamed, getting it over the top to Svi so should have been 4 on 3 and Svi looked lost with the ball, let them recover.
-
@approxinfinity I agree, our guards were passing up numerous shots they could have taken.
-
Could come out with the press just like Bill did against Nova last year.
-
@DanR Well you’re right about that… It’s a bit fickle to go after Lucas after being the man against Kentucky, but this is a regression today…
-
@approxinfinity stats do tend to even out!
-
We also need to do a better job on the ball screens and dribble penetration. That has put us in some tough spots and led to Baylor scores.
-
I’m with @DoubleDD … Not in that bad of shape. We shot poorly, threw away easy points, and they got at least 6 points after what should have been obvious travel calls.

OH the Ukraine assassin is about to show up. He always starts off slow.
-
@DanR And we benefitted greatly by a loosely called game. Expect more foul calls in the second half.
-
Somehow still not worried. Scott Drew is still coaching a game in Lawrence.
-
If the law of averages prevails. FM will now be taking over this game
-
@joeloveshawks yeah, but his players are very good and can take guys one on one very effectively.
-
Too many TOs. We’ll be penetrating more and getting the ball to Josh in the center of the zone.in the 2nd half.
-
Baylor’s offense has run some nice plays. Jackson is losing his man on the switches.
-
-
@HawkChamp I’m impressed with Baylor and they are an awesome team but I have faith that Scott Drew will screw this up.
-
There’s something about this baylor team that’s got me a weeeee bit nervous. They’re scaring me a bit.
-
@wissox I agree. This is not a typical Baylor team. They are a legit Final Four contender.
-
@joeloveshawks I expect it
-
@joeloveshawks said:

So, he has gotten a lot of deserved criticism, so let’s also give credit where it’s due. He has no Mickey D’s and he has the 2nd ranked team in the country. And, in contrast to a few years ago, it’s not on the back of a lot of directional state schools. This is the most solid, balanced Baylor team I’ve seen.
We can come back and win this, but I like this Baylor team…
-
Baylor got their game in the first half. KU gets the second half.
-
@wissox they’re more relaxed than we are (save the travels). that’s what is scaring me.
-
Here we go
-
Good moves here to start
-
Good start.
-
@DCHawker it’s the best team they have ever had. Very solid, no doubt.
-
Good start except giving up an easy layup
-
Ksu lost
-
Good aggressiveness. Keep it coming
-
Good job Josh. Please no more blind spin moves this half. When you’re seeing the basket you’re deadly.
-
Baylor players already arguing with each other?
