Well, one game we donāt have to worry about at all is ISU at home. Halliburton out for the year with a wrist fracture.
Awful for him but yeah they may not win another gameā¦

@BeddieKU23 has it been broke the whole yr?
-
@BeddieKU23 So, how did this happen? Surely Self, after all these years, didnāt wake up before the season and say " Oh, what the heck, letās play some defense this year".
Did the team just evolve? Did they say " Nobody can put the ball in the hoop so we may as well just play good defense"?
Either way, I personally love to see the good āDā. Love to see the opponents scoring in the 40ās and 50ās.

Athletes to defend that are willing to do it. The team really bought in this year.

We have a bunch of really good individual and team defenders: Dot is pesky, Marcus is Gary Payton 2.0, Ochai is solid, and Doke is the eraser behind everything. Itās really amazing how big a difference a good rim protector makes in Selfās system.
-
I think this team has learned their identity is defense. It is how they are winning games, and players want to win.
Once they accept it as their identity they believe more in what Self has been teaching them all alongā¦ defense!
You can see how their energy picks up higher on defense than on offense. They are taking some pride in getting stops.
I remain hard on them because they still have so much they can improve on. If they can improve in the second half of the season like they did in the first half, we should go far in March.
Marcus has made a big impact on this team by leading by example. His energy is contagious. So glad he will be back next year, too!

According to NBC, he fell on it against KSU snd couldnāt return to the game. MRI yesterday, and they announced today itās broken.
-
@mayjay I saw that, I think itās been hurt all year.

@BShark said in NUMBER ONE IN THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE KANSAS JAYHAWKS:
@BeddieKU23 itās weird most KU fans seem down on the team but itās our best shot at a title in awhile.
I am not one of those people - absolutely love this yearās team.
-
The West Virginia game is sold out. They better bring their big boy pants.
-
Sometimes I wonder how good we are and then I watch other games and yeeeeaaaaah.
-
Mercy now we all know there is no way Marcus gonna do that on a regular bases , But like was said if we can get some shooting Oachi with 2- ā -Moss with 2 - ā Braun with 1 - -then even if we could get Marcus to maybe hit 1-2 .
If we play like we did today , guys Iām telling you we are freaky good - -I just have not seen a defense like this. At times these guys will just flat choke you out
-
Teague has a sprained wrist, couldnāt tell which one. Heās suppose to play tues. rebounding is key. Guarding the 3
-
Braun a better boarder but game to big?
-
Heās a fighter

@BShark The odds will be much more accurate when the bracket is put together.
-
No one can predict what will happen, the trouble is we have had so many teams that shouldāve won a title.
-
KU back to #1 in Adj DE on Ken Pom. Offense is up to #9.
-
Lawdamercy
-
I find it interesting that someone gave Baylor 2 first places votes. I suppose thatās somewhat fair with us splitting but wouldnāt expect it right after we beat them.
-
That offense creeping up before our own eyes. 4 point difference in AdjEm continues to spread. This team is awesome
-
Doke was 6 of 7 from the field, 7-8 from the line, with 16 rebounds. He made 19 of the 22 possible points he attempted and only potentially rebounded himself once.
We shot 28-64 (43.8%), but if you subtract his rebounds from our 64 shots attempted, we shot 28-48 (58.3%), and that includes 10-28 from 3, a healthy number of attempted 3s.
-
@kjayhawks ehh KU still got one after losing by 12 at home to Baylor

Sure looks like we are starting to gel/come together - - hitting full stride at the right time for a change - - hitting enough 3ās to keep people honest , driving the ball , ridiculous defense , THE BEAST HAS AWOKEN ( DOKE ) - - rebounding well - everything is fallin in place. - -Glad to see Tristian get some floor time Braun continue to get more - - - these guys could sure be some how with spot minutes more Tristian than Barun - -Cause we all know Braun gonna be just fine - -but Tristian getting some PT canāt do anything but help ā Hell even getting Silvio back will help with depth another body and spot minutes - - ALL VALUABLE - -We A BAD TEAM ā at times can be Scary good. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

4 Guard offense. Sticking with Moss as the 4th guard. Dotson healthy, Garrett looks healthier. Guys just maximizing their roles and continuing to play for each other and having fun doing so. And then thereās Doke just dominating games. Iām having a ton of fun watching this group

you and me both my friend - - -you and me both. Question ? - - when Doke establishes down low & pins , WHO is going to stop him?

Cream rising to the top.

@dylans I went to the Badgers game last night and now theyāre ranked for the first time all year!
I was looking at SOS on ESPNās site and Big 12 and BIG have the top 15 slots for SOS. Two really tough leagues.

A lot of balance in both leagues. I think the B1G is more crowded in the middle, without a really strong team at the top, while the Big XII has two really strong teams, two really weak teams, and 6 in the middle that are very solid.
I donāt think either league has really tested their top teams. Other than Baylor, KU hasnāt really been tested by a top notch team in the conference. Same for Baylor (despite the loss to a middling TCU team).

Seems like since King was canned the team has found new life. Who woulda thoughtā¦
-
@BeddieKU23 Yeah, that seemed to be a turning point. A strange one. He wasnāt canned by the way, he quit on the team. Iād be feeling pretty crappy if i was him because every Badger fan now says the turnaround was because he left town. Incredibly, the Badgers, one game behind Maryland could win the BIG. We play Northwestern which got their 2nd league win last night when Nebraska made 8 of 30 FTās. Then we go to Indiana which will be tougher. Maryland goes to Rutgers and gets OSU at home. We have the tiebreaker over Maryland. Pretty amazing.
@justanotherfan Youāre right, Big12 has 8 different teams with shots at the dance. BIG has 8 ranked teams right now which are assumed to be locks, but Rutgers is on the good side of the bubble, and Indiana is as well. Barely above .500 Purdue has a pretty nice resume despite 14 losses overall.
-
Your right thatās what I meant but I didnāt word it properly. There was a time it seemed like the coach was on the red-hot seat. That seems to have subsided with them looking like a lock for the tournament. Indiana has been a tough place for Big-10 teams this year. Would be a big win if they get that especially with Indiana needing wins on the bubble

Agreed, the NCAA should declare KU the menās champs and South Carolina the womenās champs. Bummed I donāt get to see Sabrina Ionescu chase a title this tournament.
-
KU & SC being champs works for me!
-
Spending tomorrow night in Columbia, SC, so if thereās going to be a storm the Horseshoe or Five Points kind of celebration for the women champs, Iād like to know about it.
(so I can avoid it!)

Itās ok that the tournament was cancelled because, you know, there werenāt any dominant teamsā¦
