Thoughts on the game, plus Thursday
-
I have tried so hard to remove the Temple one from memory. Wasn’t there a year we went to Villanova before X-Mas and had a similar fate? Regardless it seems those before a holiday games seem to be an trend for sloppy play. It sure would be nice to get another confidence building game before the gauntlet starts
-
Interesting, Hasse’s career high in points is 30… against Temple.
Although he played and coached at KU, he is now better related to Roy Williams and North Carolina, although he has always been a great Jayhawk alumnus.
-
@JayHawkFanToo I get the Roy thing but why is more related to N Carolina than KU?
-
He was not only an assistant coach for 9 years at UNC (4 at KU) but also the HC of the Junior Varsity team, same as Roy Williams and we know where Williams loyalties ended up.
Like I said, he has been and great Jayhawk alumnus but he has been removed from Kansas for almost 15 yeas, most of those at UNC. I did not say he is not loyal to KU but he is “better related” to UNC because of his more recent involvement with that program and Coach Williams in particular who has been his mentor.
-
This team needs to come ready to grind. Once Preston and DeSousa are in the mix, Self may then go back to a more typical Self-ish hi-lo type game which wins games. I think it’s going to be a bit of a grind for half, if not most of the game tonight against the trees. If the KU guards are flat, it’s going to be a long night on the West coast.
-
Frank did a great job! I like the announcers! Just doing their job!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 And we stretched out the lead while he was on the mic!
-
Why didn’t vick start 2nd half?
-
Maybe 3 fouls? Not sure.
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich that’s right! Thx!
-
5 guards?
-
ESPN has Lawson on the scoreboard.
-
ESPN has really gone downhill.
Dedric Lawson has an assist.
-
Really liking Svi’s inside game tonight. Developing a quicker step to the basket.
-
Stanford must pay the refs really well, 16 fouls on KU only 6 on Stanford.
-
Allowing interior passes easily. Awareness on the team is weak.
We should be up by 30 points against this soft Stanford team. Yawn.
-
@betterfireE I’m enjoying it
-
2nd half was shit. Team played like the game was over.
-
Pretty cool about DG passing haase on scoring, weird
-
Nice pass doke
-
Nice steal by Garrett. Is he the one player that can make the other team play poorly? One would think Vick could produce some more steals as well. Doke is allowing passes to whizz right by his arm. Keep your arms active!
-
What a pleasant group of announcers, I didn’t miss any of the game!
-
Yep. PJ Carlesimo knows enough about the game that he doesn’t have to fall back on lame schtick like Dan Dakich.
-
Rock Chalk. Next stop Austin, TX and I will be there to cheer on our team. Merry Christmas everyone.
-
@RockChalkinTexas And a Merry Christmas to you and yours ! Enjoy the holiday, everyone !
-
All commentary was related to the game and the programs, a nice change from previous games.
-
@RockChalkinTexas Merry Christmas to you and the girls! Hang in there! Give us the latest news from texass!
-
Hopefully we will be getting some nice gifts, large gifts! No new cars w/big bows!
-
I’m glad they played like crap in the second half. I’m still hoping for more improvement over the break! No complacency
-
I would not go that far. Both coaches made adjustments at half time and both defenses stepped up and the game slowed down. Nothing new for KU which has consistently scored more in the first half.
