Big time agbaji

Did not expect him to make both wow.
-
Ramsey and moretti. Guard them with your life
-
Ku by 12? Pretty sure most of you are done with the game at this point.
-
Ramsey isn’t a great ft shooter tbh
-
Foul them. Dont let them make a 3 like dayton
-
Thanks google fiber…
-
Guard 3 with your life without fouling. Should be easy enough.
-
MARCUS
-
Garrett with the double stuff
-
That was a fun college basketball game friends!!
-
PHEW
-
Wow
-
Had 'em all the way. (Whew)
-
Great game. Good guys won.
-
Marcus
-
Were they going for 2+1?
-
Does garret get credited with a block for that last one?
-
@BeddieKU23 Best Garrett since Mike.
GOOD LUCK CHIEFS
-
No math programs at TTU? Weird finish
-
@benshawks08 better
-
Missed the whole game. Starting from the beginning now. so far YouTube tv is
(got home 5 min ago and couldn’t skip to end).
-
Starts the weekend right!
-
Garrett had 3 blocks for the game. Same as Dok.
-
I like the sound of Ochai having a good game.
-
Tech was 9-21 from three and lost yikes for them. 9% above their season average for anyone wondering.
-
They didn’t show dots post game interview
-
Nice job staying out of foul trouble down the stretch. Nobody with more than 3 PFs.
-
It’s a good sign that we won against a solid team with Doke having one of his worst games in a KU Jersey. A game we probably lose in the past.
-
Decent chance to move up to #2 in the polls.
Gonzaga escapes with a late run against USF, after trailing most of the game.
-
Garrett has an arch Injury on his foot

There last two games they have shot out of their mind from 3

I imagine he will continue playing, but damn.
-
Abadji nearly cost us with his mindless TO’s. Without those and a couple missed free throws, it’s not even a game.
-
Defense didn’t impress me much today. I thought this was one of our worst defensive games of the season and was the most points KU has given up in regulation all season.
What was the issue with Doke today? Was he sick or hurt today? Only playing 16 minutes and couldn’t shoot to save his life out there.
This team doesn’t pass very well and that’s the root issue of the scoring droughts this team goes on. They don’t reverse the ball very well, they miss a lot of open cuts and passes. 10 assists on 30 made FG’s isn’t good. That’s why I would love to see some elements of the motion offense with this group, it would get the players and ball moving a lot more and open stuff up. Right now, it’s too much Dotson and Garrett driving and either dishing to Doke or putting it up for Doke to get an offensive board. There needs to be more passing to the second and third side to really open the interior up or give guys open perimeter shots.
End of the day, it’s still a win against a quality team and KU hasn’t had a lot of those this season yet.

Self again won’t foul when up three on a final possession. It’s how he won his sole NC. It’s how we lost to Michigan in 2013. From kusports.com. -
Asked if he considered fouling in the final seconds instead of giving Tech the option of hoisting a game-tying 3-pointer, Self said he did not want to ask his players to defend for nine seconds and then foul in the final five. “I don’t think we’re mature enough to do that,” he said. “And that’s not what we practice.”
Not mature enough? I’ve seen high school teams execute it flawlessly. Just complete nonsense.
But to at least permit the OPTION, it might be wise to at least PRACTICE it. Coaching malpractice NOT to practice it and have it as an option.
A coach has to decide in the situation. We might disagree. But at least practice it.
