Xavier Henry vs Jeff Withey



  • ESPN Top 10 Plays of the Day #1 play featured Xavier posturizing Jeff.

    Should also mention that Mario was involved in the #2 play on a sweet assist to LeBron.



  • Kansas intoxication the last hour!!!



  • How am I supposed to sleep? I love this team already. I always love KU but i really enjoy watching Mason, Seldon, JoJo, Greene and the Canadian kid…



  • Jayhawks getting relevant in the NBA. Hope it continues. I think Keiff was player of the week for Western Conference for last week. TRob is still not seeing the court much and BMac has been up and down. Hope those two figure it out soon this season.



  • I may have seen another of the top 10 from the KU Dook game on there also. 3 outta 10 is PDG for HCBS guys any day.



  • @globaljaybird…The only plays I saw from our game in the top ten were the alley oop to Parker and his freaky drive/layup.



  • The image on the cover page of ESPN College BBall shows Wiggins dunking and being fouled by Parker.



  • Xavier is finally showing what we though he could do. He is getting serious minutes and likely has secured a spot in the Lakers rotation. I wish he would have posterized the unibrow instead of Whitey; on the other hand, Whitey got a lot more playing time and did have good numbers on that game.

    Not to start anything and I’m glad the puke lost their best player, but that was not a foul. He never touched Wiggins. Sure he swiped for a block, but didn’t get him on the arm or the body. This is the problem with the new rules, it is allowing refs to make bad calls, because they are to make a lot of calls.



  • @jRman … I think you are on to something here … Perhaps the Refs “Get Paid” by the number of calls they make !! “The more calls they make”; the “more money they make.” Now I understand why the whistles are blown!



  • @JRyman KU Sports has a photo that appears to prove you are right:

    pivotal play by Wiggins



  • @JRyman - Indeed Parker did not physically foul him - BUT - he gave Wiggy a very nasty look. We cannot have these college athletes intimidating each other with disgruntled looks…

    On the replay I watched the ref that was near the basket that made the call. He blows his whistle right as Parker starts to swipe at the ball, almost anticipating a foul. Then he indicates he got him on the head, but when I watch I don’t see the contact.

    But you know what, we deserve a call here or there. We are Kansas.



  • This post is deleted!


  • @JayHawkFanToo I went back to my high-def recording and I see the contact at two angles… I will try to grab a clear image and post.



  • @bskeet. I don’t think it is necessary. The refs called it a foul and Parker did not complain about it, so to me it is a foul, and I respectfully disagree with those who don’t. The good guys won and that’s all that matters.



  • @jayhawkfantoo You’re probably right… but the pictures help clear my conscience a bit 😉 slowmo1.jpg slowmo2.jpg slowmo3.jpg



  • and just one more angle.

  • I agree that Parker grazed Andrews left arm–not much of a foul IMHO. I think the replay also shows a surprised Wiggins saying "I got fouled??? I got a laugh out of that!



  • @bskeet. Nice pics. They show that he not only got him on the arm (the announcers kept saying that he was strong enough to keep it straight) but also got him with the body. Not a hard foul but considering what they had been calling, this was an easy call for the refs…
