Game Day vs Gorillas! Game Day Thread! Slack is down! Chatting here!
-
@mayjay I was posting in #General
Almost no one there. Thought it might be Halloween or something
-
I can’t get a handle on how we play yet. We don’t seem to drive to the basket very much.
-
Happy Halloween Jayhawkers!
-
It appears to be working in #general for me too on computer and phone now. Although their site officially still shows slack system status as having problems…
-
Happy @RockChalkinTexas !

Am I missing something or does Billy Preston look extremely talented and Udoka look pretty underwhelming?
Doke has work to do. - - -a long season, his free throw shooting could end up costing us some where along the line. - -Hmm I know it’s exhibition BUT could we possible remotely even sniff Doke coming back another year? - -needs lots of development. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@jayballer54 That, I was thinking that too. He might just come back… Which sucks for him, b/c it seems he would have been a 1st round lock and likely lottery last year, the way he was trajected.

Vick is the closest thing we have. Graham and Newman aren’t really penetrate and dish or penetrate and score at the rim guys…

He might. Self said it comes down to if he projects as a first rounder.
-
Really stoked though on the whole, Newman really is a scoring machine, Preston has a huge ceiling, and Garrett is the swiss army knife everyone has been saying. If the new guys stay at that level and the rest of the guys get up to the level we expected them to be, we’re going to be nasty!

@RockChalkinTexas eating candy and handing it out

If I hear this damn IM RIDING SOLO song in that ESPN commercial one more time…

Mitch is the only issue I see. Maybe Cunliffe passes Mitch in the rotation when eligible.

@Bwag I finally found it. Went there. Have to get back to ESPN on my phone to see game. Can’t do both!
-
I was thinking we’d see some hi-lo, but Doke looks a little shaky, imo.
-
@BShark Mitch is ok playing the four. Cant have him as the only big. Dok and Billy have to play smarter and not foul. Its just that simple.

AGREE
-
@KUSTEVE guess you’d agree with the commentary that he doesn’t get position set early.
Haven’t been watching close enough to tell myself.
-
We are going to have to tighten up moving forward. Both MU and Pitt St have been allowed to go on large runs and then we jack up bad threes to compound it
-
That is the type of stupid play im talking about by Billy. Not smart at all
-
Dat flop tho
-
nice play by Billy on that one. He’s going to keep learning
-

Yep…he has a lot of that in his system. Would take a miracle from Self to coach it out in one season.
-
FWIW, Slack seems to be working again. Tentatively hanging out there as well atm.
-
We don’t need no stinking bigs
-
Now we look like KU. Pounding the ball down low…lookin’ good.
-
Concussion for Billy?
-
@HawkChamp or pride? Run right thru him?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 I wondered about that. Remember when Julian Wright did that on a missed windmill dunk?
-
The entire season hinges on Preston being okay and that looked ugly
-
HawkChamp said:

Maybe. Doubt he comes back in either way.
-
@HawkChamp not the smoothest move
-
@BeddieKU23 the move or results?
-
@BShark so preventable. Thats what I’m talking about - play smart not stupid.
-
BeddieKU23 said:

Hope he is okay.
-
@BShark He’ll be fine. Think positive. Probably a concussion.
-
Vick!
-
Dang vick! Taking the rebounding talk to heart!
-
Doke got too excited. Don’t dribble it Doke.
-
You guys want to give Slack another shot? Seems to be working now, have a critical mass of people on there now

-
@approxinfinity personally, I’m fine on here. You can if you want, but this is much easier for me.

Love the things we can do on Slack!
-
Great play by Vick
-
So at least we start out each half strong.
