ROAD WARRIORS KU vs TT in Lubbock GAME THREAD
-
@StLJhawk Ugly win > pretty loss a million times out of a million.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 Road wins in the Big 12 are always tough. Don’t care if it’s ugly, just win.
-
Jackson 1-3 on free throws in the last minute. The last one finally went in, to win the game. Scary to have to rely on that, though.
-
A win is a win but Jesus boys work on fts. It a 6 point with makes.
-
Self stuck with his guns. Jackson is gonna have to make them cause he’s gonna have the ball in his hands
-
@BShark Half my ass this was a full tilt conf road win. Not a damn one comes easy.
-
@BShark correct. This is one of the games that I thought would be dangerous but they survived. On to WVU
-
@StLJhawk said:
that was one ugly ass win.
I’ll take it with a hobbled Frank and bogus refs.

Fear the Beard. This ain’t Grampa Smith’s Red Raiders.
I need to see more of a body of work, but right now he looks like a top half of the league coach.
-
I need a couple of
after that sorry assed game. I can breathe a huge sigh of relief now. Geez.
-
To be clear that doesn’t mean they will finish top half every year, but simply that I think he is a better in game coach than the likes of Shaka, Drew and Prohm.
-
Isnt it amazing that on the road and bad refs that KU can withstand multiple players having career days while having the NPOY plays sick and the rest of the team playing like crap and we still win?
-
@BShark He’s always way way less objectionable than Weber or Drew.
-
@tundrahok JJ took off the diaper today. This young man is a effin stud … His play is showin DG for what it really is - an APP St commit. Hes’ had his moments but still the consistency of a Euroballer - Not NBA material. JMO
-
I wonder if KSU played hard against WVU today.
-
@BShark That’s not hard to do is it?
-
@HawkChamp I’m wicha…
-
@BShark The first half they did. Couldn’t keep up the second and lots of TOs.
-
Defense was a joke, rebounding was a joke and Mason fouled out with over 3 to go. JJ won us the game no doubt, but man him and LL could’ve took all the suspense outta of it.
-
Nope lol. I need to see more to see if he is top half. Bruce has actually shown me a fair bit this year. KSU plays great team ball they just don’t have the horses. Which is squarely on Bruce.
Composite coach ranks are different than in-game and crootin individually.
Bruce is top half in-game but DEAD LAST in crootin in this league.

Absolutely. There are no bad road wins. Especially with Frank not at full speed, evidently.
-
JJ wins it at the line, go figure!
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 it’s a wonder the refs didn’t find something to blow the fricking whistle on those last few secs
-
@Bwag Yes…I know he is hard to stop so I see the rationale for letting him take the last shot…but it wouldn’t have shocked me if he missed both…worked out though…no complaints!
-
@Bwag lol sad thing is he was 5 for 7 but the front end miss by him was killer. Other than that what a game from JJ.
-
Wins a win. Next
-
@Bwag Trial by fire Bwag-he’s ready now-Schitzz’s on !!
-
@kjayhawks Lucas didn’t help us from the line.
-
-
One positive to the officials calling ticky tack fouls against the front runner for National Player of the year is that Mason only had to play 26 minutes. Jayhawks have a quick turnaround playing WVU on Monday, so hopefully Mason is ready to go for that game.

Only out boarded by 6 fwiw and with the way the refs were not calling any rebounding fouls on TTU I can live with that.

12-15 2-4 5-7 4 7 11 4 1 0 1 2 31
BAH GAWD KING
-
@BShark Also only 9 turnovers.
-
@Bwag But he played a great B2B game for a change & flat pancaked Josh Grey with his screen on the final drive to the rack by JJ. LL played outstanding ball today & we would not have won without his contributions. JMO
-
Stat line said frank had a bad day ?
-
@globaljaybird won’t argue that. And he finished through contact at least once.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 I guess that LL set a legal screen. Damn! LL was great today doing only what coach asks him to do.
-
Oh and I wasn’t on when they mentioned it on air but Liberal, KS is closer to Lubbock than Lawrence. #awfulannouncing

Lando is a rock. Almost killed us with FTs but other than that he was great today. Lucas great which is do all the little things and don’t miss too many bunnies.
-
Considering how floppy Tech was today, I’m not sure Lucas set THAT hard of a screen. It was a solid screen, though.
-
@Blown Frank was sick as shit today. Damn lucky we had JJ on fire to win without him. At crunchtime JJ was DAMAN !!!
-
This team looks like they can win it all at times and then looks like a team that could be the first one seed to lose in the first round all in the same game.
-
@globaljaybird 31, 11, and 4 plus good defense for a freshman playing a road game. What a stud.
-
Big win when you can find a way to win when the one who has led you all year has miserable game. - -Frank only 6 pts and Zero assists, when is the last time Frank has not had an assist? Man we have had more close games this year then I can remember in recent history. - -One thing for sure this should help us come in the NCAA cause we have had plenty of experience in close games.
Well we have to pull for Tech this week, they have Baylor, & West Virginia so we need to become Tech fans, time to move on - BIG time game Monday - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@jayballer54 and I’ll be there!!
️
-
@globaljaybird thanks. Didn’t get to watch. Seemingly the bug is making its way through the team starting w lando vs Texas
-
Svis defense seems to get worse bye the game, dude gets more drive byes than a Saturday night in Compton.
-
@kjayhawks Yep, slow as hell on closeouts & destined for Euroball. Guess that’s OK with him but I’d be surprised if he’s even a fringe NBAer If he is, it’ll be because of his 3 pt shot & that has to improve a lot. JMO
-
Just read – We with our win today, KU is 7-1 in Big 12 games decided by single digits ------------ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@globaljaybird ya it sucks because he has improved so much on offense but hasn’t really improved on that end. I thought we should’ve gone zone, I’m not sure we ever did.
-
@kjayhawks I did not see it but I had many distractions. Don’t think Bill is big on showing it when he can get by without it. Element of surprise is part of it with HCBS IMO.
