Self's Short Stack vs Shaka's Invincible Horns Game Thread
-
This team doesn’t have a shooter, post player, or leader.
-
Lightfoot shows up in the B12

@Bwag What can he do?
I don’t know, but I think from what I saw at the end of Kentucky game it involves finding an offensive set that frees up Vick on the perimeter via screens or whatever to get him hitting some outside shots. Need to light that fuse earlier in the game and see if that doesnt start to free up some of the inside game
-
Something is going on here. I don’t think they’re very happy campers. probably one of the worst efforts I’ve seen in years. Reminds me of when we started Chieck over Landen at OSU, and the team just laid down and quit.
-
Lightfoot in traffic
-
decent offensive possession there finally
-
Okay. Just keep playing this lineup. Maybe switch DMac for Lightfoot at times.
-
HOLY CRAP. Ochai is the best thing to happen to this team since Silvio last year.
-
Man Texas sucks. We’re only down by 1
-
Lolol
-
I don’t know what will happen from here… but now down one after the way we played…unbelievable.
-
Damn! The Garett and Ochai do that.
That was impressive on both ends .
-
I’m not going to leave chic fil a until we are up 10
-
I want Dotson, Garrett, Ochai, and two bigs. At least they’ll play defense.
-
@tundrahok We should be down by 30.
-
Think we just found our lineup lol
-
Maybe that wakes us up, let’s go!
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich Yep. Kind of done with Grimes and Vick myself

You’ll get kicked out before that happens.
-
Weak call ends the run
-
2.5 good looks at the basket at least

And Kansas can’t get a call. Texas has 2 fouls.
-
This is what Mitch is good for. The effort will always be there and he’s a very smart player that almost always makes the right play.
-
This lineup at least has 5 energy guys.
-
Down three seems pretty good. Start the guys who were in at the end of the first half and let’s roll.
-
How in Hades are we this close after a performance like that? Worst I’ve seen since that “Topeka YMCA” game vs. TCU.
If UT manages to lose this one, they should fire Shaka on the spot.

Dedric and Dotson both missed layups
-
This is a friggen big 10 game
-
3 assists on 10 made FG’s for KU.
-
As bad as that was, down 3. Guess will take that.
-
@Woodrow I gave Mitch a .5 for whatever that was that he was doing slamming the ball off the rim on the rebound.
-
Surely we cant play that damn bad for two halfs in a row. I feel like we should be down 15.
-
Have to be thrilled to only be down 3. But I can’t help but think that we didn’t take advantage of poor play by UT.
-
Are there more players redshirting that we can try?
-
Dotson needs to get more aggressive with his shooting. Self needs to give Dotson the Brandon Rush treatment and punish him when he passes on a good shot.
Dotson is our best shooter, but he’s too passive still on offense. Every time he drives, he’s looking to pass instead of shoot.

The first ISU game says they can.
-
@Hawk8086 they hit 5 3s and only average 8 a game. Defense is fine if we just rebound and run offense.

An open jump shot…how do we do more of that?

Put in the bearded waterboy I think his name is Mank Frason.

Elliot

@Texas-Hawk-10 agreed. Energy. Kept a couple balls and plays alive
-
@Kcmatt7 Big 1G of a few years back…more bad offense than great defense
-
Hey, we pulled even on rebounds, 16 each. That’s cool. Garret has 5.
-
@kjayhawks Absolutely…no problem with the defense
-

I’m not convinced yet. Signs of brilliance at times…others, seems other team does what they want and too much running at open shooters from so far away not really affecting shots. Tx may just be that bad

BREAKING NEWS: KU HAS SIGNED A MID SEASON TRANSFER NAMED MRANK FASON. ELIGIBLE TO PLAY IMMEDIATELY
-
Agbaji is our leading scorer with 9, which is 3 times more than the next highest (Grimes and Dotson have 3 each). That’s less cool.
-
Vegas has us a 1.5 point favorite so there’s that!
-
ESPN is desperate for eye balls. Used to not even cover UFC…
-
Have a question ? - In our conference games only , what would you all say was the percentage of the time we have lead in games ? -It can’t be good - -we have played from behind a large majority if I remember right ?
This team just has no flow - -so choppy - -so many inconsistent players. - -Sad to say really other then Dedric which has been pretty consistent , yet now we are seeing what is going to be a trend for the rest of the season - where he is double anytime he touches the ball , there is no one that if I were opposing teams would be scared of anyone - - excluding Obaji - he is going to be a very solid player for us for sure. - -Vick is sad - soooo inconsistent. - -Grimes is just sad talent - -but where is the mentality- -the drive - -the heart?
Don’t be surprised guys come tourney time - -It wouldn’t totally shock me if we got beat in the 1st game - -not 1st weekend - -I’m talking the 1st game. - - Pretty disappointing considering with all the media talk - - the way we were feeling and thinking at the 1st of the season - - now look where we are. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
