Dave has a ways to go, for sure.
I know people have been screaming for him to play, but it’s pretty clear why he hasn’t been. That’s no knock on him.
Exactly. He’s a smart kid too so he knows he hasn’t been great. I don’t think he is a transfer risk.
-
Don’t pull a Baylor here
-
Mitch will foul out in 3 2 1 …
-
Little late on the face mug refs. Get it together
-
enie is a hatchet man
-
Mitch and his poor abused face
-
@DanR be fouled in 2, 1…
-
@BShark No. He will be a 3 maybe 4 year guy unless he takes a huge jump next year.

Who are we talking about here? Dave? The plan for Dave was 4 years.
-
@Woodrow bad enough to tie us at halftime. In Lawrence.
-
I remember watching Magic beat KU that season 40 years ago. First time I’d ever heard of the guy.
-
@nwhawkfan I lived in Big 10 country and Magic was all we heard about
-
@BShark yea Dave. I view him as a 3-4 year guy. That was my point. I don’t think transferring is even a question.
-
As usual we dont like big leads
-
6&10 from Mitch today. Not too mention all the hustle plays. Great game for him!

I’d love to see what this teams + / - is in the last two minutes of each half.

Agree, don’t think he is a risk. He actually talked about what degree he wanted to get from KU when he committed.
-
lol, good try KJ
-
D dot is a great player!
-
Great win! Great coaching
-
Chuck!
-
This is what passes for a comfortable win nowadays. The new normal. Just need this kind of intensity on the road.
-
Lol at those last 2 threes from OSU. At least it was just for window dressing.
-
All right. Get ready for TCu
-
Let’s go get a road W Monday and get some momentum!
-
Wish we had a McGriff on our team, he moves w/out the ball so well. Seems like u can teach that.
-
@DanR u mean tcu beat isu today first!
-
This is basically game 1 of the season now. Once Garrett is back its another piece to blend and build chemistry
-
Went 1-2 on my games today. But Michigan just pissed me off with a totally bush league alley oop when we decided not to play defense when losing by 7 and 2 seconds on the clock.
-
Tcu up 7

Ochai moves well off the ball. Soccer background helped him there imo.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 If TCU could win today…and KSU loses tonight? That would be a very good day.
-
ISU 1-10 from three atm. Never against KU…
-
ISU cut the lead to 7 at half. Probably just close enough for them to warm up from 3 and win. I was hoping for a bigger halftime lead for TCU when they were up 14.
-
@BShark win from the 3 die…
-
A victory! how’s about that. nice. Now we need TCU to hold onto that lead over Iowa State! Go horny toads!
– Mitch. Nice effort. Happy to see he keeps his attitude team first.
– Grimes: Made two threes (yay), but otherwise invisible, other than the usual turnovers.
– The flow of the game is interesting to me lately. Teams really make Dedric struggle to find a shot in the first half, then he finds his game after the break.
– When Charlie’s in, i wish we could find him regular spots on the floor to shoot from. Always seems to be hurling up 3s at the wrong time, place and distance.
– KJ continues to be a hot mess. Oops, my bad. this is supposed to be a happy, positive thread since we won. ignore.
– That McGriff is a beast. wouldn’t mind having him on our team to add some thuggy muscle.
– Big Dave. Despite repeated calls for him to play more, i’m starting to wonder if that’s the right thing. At least starting may not be his thing. Good energy off the bench. Maybe he can bring the hammer down on opposing players who are off to a hot start. He’s got the elbows for it. Charles Oakley style.
– Ochai seems to be the most vocal player we have. New team leader? Own it.
-
@jayhawkcsg Agree, in general, about Q, but he did make a couple of nice passes and got into the lane a few times. I guess I’m really reaching here to look for good things…
-
Of course. They are a good team. We will struggle mightily on Monday
-
Got us a win and always nice to be back at the Fieldhouse. I thought it was a good team win, we struggled to grab rebounds and make shots in the first. The Fieldhouse was quiet as a Monday morning church during the first aswell. Really don’t have much to complain about, Moore and KJ were not effective but I was pleased with the other guys. Grimes seemed to be more engaged and big David got some minutes.
-
McCormack is showing why he isn’t ready to play big minutes yet. He’s still totally lost out there. 4 offensive boards and 0 points today and still fairly lost on defense. It would be great to get him going, but he hasn’t shown anything this season that the light is coming on for him, at least with Grimes, there’s flickers every once in a while.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 Very true, but that’s why him getting 10-15 minutes as he did today is important for his development IMO. He had a couple of easy dunks but fumbled them away. He decent on defense. KJs defense late first half was about as pathetic as I’ve ever seen.
-
@kjayhawks I wonder if kj’s bonehead plays bother Dedric?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 most likely, I’ve got some brothers lol
-
They really need to change the intro video back to the decent music. The one they about 5 years ago was great, this newer one doesnt fire me up much.
-
@kjayhawks which one was it?
-
The hype video before our starters, same one they’ve had for the past several years.
-
@kjayhawks The one I think you mean is the one that starts off with Larry Brown … “no better place to …”
The best pregame video ever.
-
@HighEliteMajor yes that is considerably better than the latest one.
-
Chills…every time.
