Rock Chalk Tech Game
-
Let’s go OK State!
-
Stunning result
-
Played to our talent and our coaching! Great team chemistry!
-
Didn’t think we would win by 16 today, and the game wasn’t even that close. Nice game today.
-
It was a must win. Great to see the team rise to the occasion. Maybe things will start to come together from this point forward…
-
Ok state can hit the 3! No easy teams
-
Chris Teahan 2 minutes played 2 3pa. Attaboy.
-
I think we should use this line up going forward, MG is a great defender but the offense look better. Some of it was we were hitting from the outside but I like everyone of our guards shots better than his.
-
@kjayhawks great spark plug off the bench!
-
Great game. Pleasantly surprised. One thing you can always count on is when Self and his team get backed in a corner they respond.
He’ll of a team effort tonight.
-
Ochai had a Double double, his rebounding and defense is great for a kid thats just played his 8th game I believe. He was a huge get at this point, a diamond in the rough.
-
Vick really stepped up too
-
Grimes with 3 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals and no turnovers. I like Grimes the passer.

I felt like Ochai was just okay today. Didn’t do anything to hurt the team but missed a few shots. Then I saw the box score and he had 10/10/3. He’s a really good athlete but also a smart player, great combo.
-
Great game for sure, only issue was offensive rebounds at the start of the 2nd half and a couple of nit picking turnovers.

Great to see him actually contribute.
My only negative from today would be Dave. He got set up on a platter twice and couldn’t finish. I hope he toughs it out at KU. Almost any other recruiting class and he isn’t a McDAA but he can be a good player in time.
-
@BShark Thats how you know you have a good player, misses a couple of open looks but still was very effective in the end.
-
Okay. Onward to the purps with momentum.
-
The thing about today for me was the energy was better than we have shown in weeks right from the tip. I always say if you play hard, good things will happen. I loved seeing guys smiling and having fun, even Grimes flashed a smile a couple of times. We played loose and had fun. It will take a similar effort again tuesday in Manhattan.
-
Anei’s (Big For ok st) center of gravity (waist) is so high. Doke would destroy that guy.
-
I think d dot can run on kitties, wade looks pretty tentative on that foot. He’s playing good though. I’ll watch tonight.
-
I like tyshawn!
-
Nice to see Charlie recover from some boneheaded shots early and learn to be a positive impact when his shot isn’t falling. Dude finished with 6 assists. His shot is as bad as Garrett % wise.
-
He’s on post game

No 2 shots of Charlie’s look alike. His form and his approach to shooting is broken.
-
Tyshawn was one of those guys that could make a unbelievable play and then turn around and make you wanna pull your hair out a minute later… Love that guy, met him once.
-
Tyshawn is all grown up.

That open lay-up was good tho. I think that his offense has to be try an penetrate, kick it out if defense rotates in and only shoot OPEN threes.
-
@approxinfinity His form is ugly ugly, he just needs to lock himslef in the gym for a few days. Getting consistent form, even if its isn’t great form is huge in shooting.

He had a couple nice drives and kicks. Fast. I do think he will get destroyed if he drives too often. It has to be only when the d isn’t staying home
-
Believe it or not, my dad (RIP) loved Tyshawn.
-
Good news as well OU lost in Morgantown so we aren’t the lone wolf lol
-
In other news, NC State had only 24 points against Tech whose best player was out with broken toe (Justin Robinson). Same NC State team that took UVA to OT last game. Someone else had their Topeka YMCA moment today.
-
@approxinfinity I bet the line at concessions was out of the building in that one.

Both ranked teams
hoping Tech can keep Buzz Williams a while so that won’t be an anomoly
-
I love Chris beard
-
My favorite stat today was 19 assists on 27 made FG’s for KU. KU was passing the ball much better than they have been today and that was a big reason for so many easy shots at the basket and open looks from 3.
-
My second favorite stat today is the Dedric Lawson would’ve beaten NC State by himself today.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 good one! Hurt had to be impressed! Glad Dedric is shooting out there. He has a sweet shot, might move him up, I hope!
-
So is everybody back on the bandwagon now? Keep the faith friends. Keep the faith.
-
@bmensch1 I shoved some of them off
-
@bmensch1 I still need more convincing other than one good game before my expectations get too high.
-
At home sure. Plus the Silvio thing gave some motivation. Nice to see though
-
@kjayhawks I may or may not let you on!
-
@BeddieKU23 I really like the chemistry, sharing the ball, assists, giving up a good shot for a better shot. Dot taking open shots, Dedric too!
-
If u didnt hear post game, Chris beard complimented our program, AFH, Self, and knocked the ncaa. He definitely wasn’t on frans list of coaches he heard from that thought the results were what they thought they’d be. I’d take him after Self over anyone.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 bring it on young lady!!!
-
This is the 1st COMPLETE game we have played all year. - -We might of had some 6-7 minutes stretches but not for the entire game , some crazy calls in the 2nd half.
Feel bad for Marcus but with the line up we put on the floor tonight at least opposition couldn’t double nearly as easily , having to guard all 5 spots. - -Oachi is going to be a stud - -and we were redshirting him - Only thing I just hope gets better , when Dave is in seems like he always wants his motor to go 50 in a 20 mph zone - -Oachi’s defense isn’t that far away for Marcus - -which is really good - -maybe this might be the way we need to run - -and bring Marcus off the Bench. - -I think that the NCAA pissed some players off - -looked pretty salty against the # 1 team leading the Nation in defense. They give up 56.8 a game - - hell we almost had that by half time. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Go back and watch the last 30 years of ku basketball…you need more convincing than that…cheer for espn and the blue devils. If you are talking about this year…watch the Tennessee game, michigan st game, iowa state at home, OK game…there is plenty of evidence that this team is fine. If I remember correctly, you were one of the few that counted the Jayhawk out after Washington, AZ state, and a scrapper again Nebraska last year. The fine Jayhawk only made it to a final four. They’re real good. They’ll be fine.
-
Yeah and it pains me to say but without Garrett things just seemed better. It helps when guys make 3s. This offense was built for guys to make perimeter shots. They played solid defense for the most part as well
