Coyotes For Dinner - Game Thread

We will look a lot better once De Sousa is eligible next week.
-
Thank you, watch his defense. For a small guy has the worst center of gravity I’ve seen
-
don’t kid, approx

Lol. Dont quit your day job on that
-
I don’t mind him playing in this game but it’s clear why Dave doesn’t play in close games. It’s just way too fast for him.
-
@DanR I’m serious. I’ve caught the “All I want for Christmas is my SDS” fever.
-
At this point, I’m not sure the playing time in this game is all that beneficial for Big Dave and Grimes.
-
that’ll work high low
-
@DanR because they aren’t getting it quite done? Or are you ready for the coyote blood to spill?

If I had paid for a ticket for this game I’d ask for a refund. I don’t want to go all negative nanny right now, but this is the #1 team in the country. This is quite pathetic.
They’ve won everything so far. It’s a very different team than the last two. The last two teams were very experienced and played close to their ceiling very early on. This is a much younger and inexperienced team and still nowhere near their ceiling.
The defense has gotten vastly better since the start and I expect Self to work a lot on the offense in the next couple of weeks when KU will have a lot more practice time.
This team is winning and has beaten 3 currently ranked teams, all on neutral courts and all currently top 20 with 2 in the top 10 and will play a 4th top 20 team away from AFH Saturday.
If KU beats ASU Saturday, they’ll be 4-0 against current top 20 teams and none of those wins will have been in AFH.
This isn’t a team that’s going to blow many teams out, but this is becoming a very good team very quickly.
-
@approxinfinity just too sloppy for them to get into game rhythm
-
SD has nothing for Dotson lol.
-
It takes time for freshman to get used to the speed of the game. Keep Dave in.
-
Dave is where T-Rob is as a freshman. He’s going to be a beast of a player when the light comes on for him at some point.
-
@DanR last 3 possessions have been solid for big Dave. Little more run before putting the big kid back on the pine.
-
Good follow, Vick!
-
@DanR Q I agree.
-
Talk guys
-
Big Dave has the footwork, but the range finder is uncalibrated
-
LOOOOL
-
Theres the breakdown. Prob gets Dave the hook.
-
I’d like to see Dave play a lot in the second half. This is a low risk game to get Dave some extended minutes. EMU between Christmas and New Year’s is going to be the only other chance for that.
-
@Woodrow Wasn’t he a five star? Imagine how great if he were a 6 star!
-
Dave has to learn what a good shot is. Left hand hooks half looking at the hoop dont cut it
-
@wissox he will be good in due time, but this year is not it.
-
@BeddieKU23 I mean Vick is a senior and he hasn’t really learned what a good shot is either to be fair.
-
I think Vick is proud that he knocked someone down!
-
Vick with the clothesline
-
Roy’s old jacket?
-
Well it could be worse. We have the lead at half which has been rare

It will come eventually.
-
I love Self complaining about the offensive flow when he is clearly in screw with rotations mode. He is the best.
-
@BShark he’s right about the 2 on 1’s
️
-
If ever there was a game where I thought about just doing something else the 2nd half this is it, but I’ll still watch every second…
-
#1 rec team leads the 6-5 rec team from up North. Sure wish I was there. Will be on edge of my seat in the second half. GAAAHD!!
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 Nice post sir! The interesting thing about this team is how they tend to play down to their competition, or maybe they’re just experimenting, making them almost like scrimmages. It’s pretty fascinating to watch. Interesting thing too is the pollsters recognize us as the top team despite a months worth of underwhelming performances against some middling teams. The win against Tennessee is looking better and better.
-
Just need to actually run some offense in the second half. Too many quick shots, I think the only reason they got 27 was because Self left David out there and his guy scored 10 on him (which is fine, he needs PT). Just clean up some switching issue on defense and take/make good shots, 30 point win.

I would say that Self is absolutely treating this game like an exhibition. The rotation will be tighter against ASU.
-
SD actually shooting it better. Fun.
-
Oh and great half by Mitch, I said he should play more. He’s our leading rebounder and scorer thus far.
-
Very sloppy first half hopefully the second half is better.
-
Nice Q!
-
Sounds like Clint and Tony will be on the side lines this coming season.
-
Self really has to coax it out of Grimes.
-
Play good D. Feed Dedric. Win by 30… Or… Develop others, win by 15.
-
Um…
-
Let the hate flow through you, Q.
-
BAd call
-
Charlie alert again
-
good choice to not call a timeout, self
