KU vs the Purps
-
Showing flashes here. I think he would really benefit from another year.

Wow, TCU scores 39 first half points against us. Who in the hell are these guys?
Defense has been reaaaaaally bad for KU.
-
@stoptheflop guys who think they’re in the super bowl.
-
@BShark agreed. Gave up too much penetration.
-
@stoptheflop Better than in Ft. Worth when TCU put up 44 in the 1st half.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 Yea for us, I guess.
-
Really good to see Bragg step up. Last year he would have hit that little jumper though. Team Defense is still a work in progress, I guess.
-
@jessejayhawk bad thing to say!
-
@Hawk8086 he played well enough to stay on the floor longer. That’s a positive step. Need more of that
-
@HawkChamp The problem is also on the glass - gave up 11 offensive rebounds in the first half and got out rebounded by 9. That’s tough to overcome game after game. Bragg and Jackson are doing a decent job, but not getting much help. Svi is 6-8, but provides no help with rebounding…
-
-
@DCHawker whoa… Careful there
-
@Crimsonorblue22 agreed. Totally out of character. My apologies.
-
This Brandon Rush tribute is
-
@DCHawker what would help is putting Coleby at the five and let Carlton be the stretch four. Know idea why coach doesn’t do that.
-
@Hawk8086 I don’t know about “work in progress”. Effort seems to be the main thing.
-
@HawkChamp well said. They have shown they can play stellar D for stretches when they want to
-
-
Are we just playing like an NBA team, where only the 4th Q matters? Damn, a decent lead at home would be nice for once. Whoops, we had a 12 points lead against I State.
-
@BShark nice
-
@jessejayhawk accepted
-
@HawkChamp Fair enough. Maybe…the march toward playing consistent defense is a work in progress.
-
Hey, I appreciate everyone being here and I enjoy your comments. Thanks.
-
Oh my
-
lol defense
-
Moonlight Graham
-
Frank is so good
-
first runout of the game, right?
-
There is just something so odd about this picture. At home - shooting 50% from 3 - against TCU! - and just up a deuce…
-
Wonder if we could play D for like 1 possession

Rebounding and defense.
-
Welcome back, Devonte…you’re a sight for sore eyes…
-
Sadly, with this team playing in AFH I root for a 2 possession lead, which we finally have.
-
@BShark Agree - the point is that it is so unlike the typical Self team - we just haven’t seen this before…
-
@cragarhawk they just don’t want to expend much energy it seems. We have seen them when they know they need a stop, so it is within their ability to play lockdown D.
-
Double OUCH, Lucas 0 points, and 1 rb.
-
And that is the point.
-
@HawkChamp that could be the whole deal. Self says save a lil energy tonight fellas. It crossed my mind
-
@DCHawker the odd thing is that they are capable of it.
-
This KU team is a lot like the really good ISU teams. Though they never had a player like Josh.

True.
-
I give credit to TCU, only 5 turnovers and very few breakaways for us (one I think)
-
Showtime!
-
WOW
-
I was gonna complain about Lucas not kicking it back out but that Josh dunk made me forget or something.
-
What’s this? A two possession lead at the break.
-
Man this is a sight for sore eyes - defense leading to offense. Very nice
-
08 team lived off this. Blew a lot of teams out by doing that. Gawd the 08 team was so good.
-
Cole Aldrich the FOURTH big. We seem so far removed from that now.
-
Fun here!
-
@BShark yes. As evidenced by the last two minutes, this team is capable of that kind of play but they just dont do it often
