Game isn’t until Wednesday

@BeddieKU23 oops, I’ll change it.
-
One man team, but always dangerous against us in Ames.
-
Could change it to two man team if Prohm figures out that Conditt is a badass. It seems to be trending that way as his minutes are up from the start of the year.

Def a one man band. Bolton is good for 4 or 5 3s against us.
In every sense of the word losing to this version of Iowa St would be embarrassing
-
Good news is they can’t shoot a lick. Sitting at a sterling 246th in the country in 3 point FG%. For reference, we’re somehow 46th.

We mostly get open looks and shoot a low volume so those things probably help. Ochai and Moss are both on very good percentages, but tend to be all or nothing. Like you get 0-1 threes from them or 4 out of them in any given game.
-
Road games are always tough but this is a game you gotta win if you want to win the league.
-
@wrwlumpy ej’s game, one of my favorites. He was unconscious! Then that nasty man! Forgot what we call him?
-
Think Marcus will guard Haliburton?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Melvin? What an ass.

Yes

Absolutely especially since there is a big size difference between them. Haliburton is their entire offense
-
-
@Hawk8086 I think they call him Melvin weatherwax
-
We also need to be prepared for the fbi shirts, even though we were cleared by them.
-
-
-
Marcus will definitely guard Haliburton, I wouldn’t look into their shooting numbers with a lot of confidence. They will probably improve thru out the year and as they always do, shoot lights out on us.
-
ok guys I’m just plain stupid I reckon. I mean I knew were pretty decent but dam - guys read off the Cyclone report of all places saw that Ku is 2nd Nationally in adjusted Defensive efficiency - – SECOND.
That my friends is good - - -DAM GOOD , that can carry you along ways. - Kinda makes my mouth drool. - just stop and think if we can just get a little improvement on the offensive end - - look the hell out.
Little improvement on free throws - - little improvement taking better care of the ball. -got to give you hope - - could this be our year ?
Steady on the defensive end, like has been brought up were averaging close to 9 steals a game - - Devon and Marcus on the outside - - Doke as a rim protector – do a pretty decent job on the boards - - we have really good length.
Just solidify the offensive end at bit - - oh ya. - -2nd in the nation defensively. coach has to love that. – ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@jayballer73 #15 on offense somehow too. Sometimes it’s hard to see as we are spoiled but this is a great team.
-
Iowa State would be fools to fire Prohm, and there have been rumblings.

ya your right bud. - -I think we as fans sometimes never satisified, that includes me for sure. - -like you say hard to see , but Man - can you imagine , just a little bit more and if we put a full 40 minutes on both sides of the floor - - OMG.
These guys I am seeing now have a real chance to be right there on the threshold - -I mean sure come tourney time it becomes a crap shoot, but DAM man - how long has it been since we have had a defense like this ?
I mean I have heard others talk, and really talk up this defense, guess I was just kind of slow but Seth Green burg talking up our defense - -and hearing how long we are - gets me excited.
I know that we are # 3 like shooting the 2 just some things we need to clean up just a little - -let’s do this. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Do you really think so? Who, Hoiberg? If that is the answer, well, then yes.

I am down with our team! Finally playing D. Can we tighten up on defending the 3 ball? Sure. And I think that we will. I’ll be honest here, I like our chances.

Me too buddy - - -me too.

@Marco Hoiberg won’t be back. Prohm is awful though, maybe the worst coach in the B12.

Really, you think so? I don’t. I give that honor to Smart, with all of the talent that he’s had.
-
@Marco both are bad and both should probably be fired.
-
How has SMART got all those great bigs?

How does Smart still have a job? Man, I hope we can make some inroads into Texas before they get a real coach.
-
Smart is probably gone after this season baring a crazy postseason run. There are several bigs that I wish were here rather than the ugly burnt orange of Texas. Prohm isnt as good as I thought he was coming in. That team has fell off after Fred got them back. The first 2 years with Freds guys like Monte Morris and Jamil McKay Prohm went 47-23, finished as high as second in the B12 having winning records both years and a sweet 16 appearance making the tournament both years. In the 2 1/3 years since he is 43-35, with a .500 record in conference as his best and missing the tournament in 2018. I don’t think his seat is hot yet but it will be if they can’t make the tournament this season for the second time in three years.
-
Shaka’s saving grace is his contract still has quite a few dollars on it.
Beard’s buyout within the B12 is $6M. Idk if Texas will be willing to pay that or not. I’d lean towards not. And that also saves Shaka.
-
Good point, didn’t realize his buyout was that big.
