I know it’s Senior night but I would rest him. We should be able to best TCU without him.
-
Start him and pull him out after the first whistle to let him get his ovation.
-
Where is the write up on the injury?

Agree and even if we lose who cares. Gotta have him healthy for the ncaat.
-
He has a Sprained right ankle and is questionable for Wednesday’s games and good thing it is not broken and is wearing a walk Boot so nothing else could happen to it
-
Unfortunate for Doke, I honestly wish they’d consider medical redshirts for guys in his situation. I doubt he’d take it at this point anyway but he has missed time in every season due to injury and over half the season as a freshman and junior. Ankle injuries can be minor and not a big deal or they can nag for months at a time. I’d consider setting him til the second round of the NCAA tournament if it means he will be close to a 100%. It just will suck to not see him play on senior night if it turns out to be the serious type.

Doke’s eligible for a medical redshirt for the time he missed last season. I don’t know if he’d also be eligible based on his freshman year or not, but I think he would be as well if he and KU wanted to pursue that avenue.
And just so no one tries to put words in my mouth on this, no Doke will not be back next season, he’ll be on an NBA roster. He’s just eligible for a medical redshirt.

Someone fill this out for Dok to leave the door open. Lol
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 I had the same thoughts about Doke awhile back and asked the question on when the deadline is to fill out the proper paperwork. If I remember correctly it is August of whatever year he was injured. @HighEliteMajor posted the actual rule for us.
-
FWIW I couldn’t find anything about a deadline in the bylaws (relevant portion on page 89) https://web3.ncaa.org/lsdbi/reports/getReport/90008
-
Boy I hope Doke is able to recover from this ankle sprain.
Garrett’s injuries seem to be showing up as well. It wasn’t a positive that Self mentioned him in a good deal of pain after Saturday
-
@BeddieKU23 he has been wearing the boot since I made that thread.
-
Bill self just said on hawk talk that he is out of the walking boot but he is still Questionable for Wednesday’s game
-

Start him on Wednesday, then pull him first dead ball to get his ovation and sit him the rest of the game. KU shouldn’t need Doke to beat TCU in Lawrence.
-
I had the same thought you all seem to have. Doke doesn’t play again until the 2nd round of the dance.
-
@wissox Shades of Embiid…shudder.
-
Exactly what I was thinking too. That would just suck big time.
-
-
These always get the tears going. Ugh
-
Sounds like Doke wants to play tomorrow. Coach said they gonna test it tomorrow. I don’t know if he should or not BUT I get it , Senior night last game at the Phog for Doke. - -Might just play him very limited. They gonna test it and then decide tomorrow. ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
Unless he cant walk he is going to play. Might be on a pitch count but you know Doke is going to want to go out in style tomorrow. We can only hope he doesn’t injure himself and we get the win!

Of course Doke wants to play. This is where Self needs to look at the risk/reward of the situation. KU is the favorites to win the national championship right now. KU will not win that title without a healthy Doke. Start Doke tomorrow and pull him at the first dead ball so he can get his recognition, then sit Doke until he’s as healthy as can be. If that means sitting him until the NCAA Tournament, then sit him until the NCAA Tournament. Doke’s health for the NCAA Tournament run is far more important than him proving his toughness because we know how tough he is.
-
We don’t need Doke this game against TCU at this point. Play him minute to minute, evaluate his ankle. But give Big Mac some minutes. We need both down the stretch. Doke is no good to us injured, on the bench, and with a boot. Bill needs to limit his minutes this game. This TCU game is a great game for Dave.
-
@BeddieKU23 Let’s hope he doesn’t go out with a boot. I fear he is too eager and seeing him laying on the floor after turning his ankle is too much.
-
Rest up big Doke. We have Silvio back!! (so if Big Dave fouls out in four minutes we’ll still have a guy that can get some rebounds)

Exactly play him like you said , then pull him. He gets floor time on Senior night & then we still get to appreciate him for his Senior night post game speech. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

JUST DELIVERED AN ALL TIME SR NIGHT SPEECH. AHHHHHH.

Espn + should still have post game. I switched to cox cable

I’m drained after Dok’s sr speech. Talking about how his dad died before he came over, not being able to see his mom etc

@BShark plus getting hurt so much and being that young! I was homesick my first yr of college at 18!

Hung this up right before the game started. It feels like a great omen after watching his performance tonight. He is quickly becoming one of my favorite players of all time

Doke Dunk Watch
Doke is 1 up on Obi Toppin with 101 dunks. He’s 21 off the record for a season set by himself
He’s tied with Tacko Fall for most dunks in a career. That record will fall Saturday

@kjayhawks hoping for ff mop too!

Who woulda thunk all that discussion we had months ago that scouts would start noticing how much better Doke is this season.
Seems he’s played himself into “drafted” state at this point.
-
He deserved the award. Impacted the game unlike any other player in college basketball this year. Everyone knows he’s getting the ball, but still he can’t be stopped.

I hope that someday he will be able to walk down the hill and receive the degree he has earned. I doubt Sping grad ceremonies will be held this year. 3 time All Big 12 Academic team. We don’t pay as much attention to that as we should, but to me it is the highest recognition of the effort some students put in.
