Yeah och had time to pump fake and wide open look. It’s ok.
-
Nfl like
-
-
Jalen please
-
Great take from Ochai sometimes you just miss.
-
Read somewhere in college hoops it’s actually statistally more successful to not foul here.
-
Jeez Marcus
-
Time out, ffs, marcus
-
What a good pass
-
-
Need to rest Garrett another week for the head injury
-
That boy ain’t right!
-
Sad sad game
-
He only had temporary recovery
-
Well good effort on the comeback at least. Just need to keep getting better.
-
Braun was wide open for a bit and Marcus just missed it.
-
Somehow I knew we wouldn’t even get a shot off, and I’m pretty optimistic
-
Not a PG… hero ball failed
-
David 24 points - - -12 rebounds - - 3 blocks - - & 3 assists
-
I’m not mad at all. We went from looking like doo doo to looking like a team that was improving. Besides Dave we saw some clutch minutes from Enaruna and Thompson
-
Espn transitioning to the zion interview portion
-
Night. Can’t take the slobbering all over CC.
-
Really too bad to come all the way back and be up 3, then give up the last 8 of the game…
-
Bad tease
-
Yeah…game was super winnable. Then a brick layer drains a three. And then…Marcus…
-
Winnable game even down to the last minute, then a total meltdown.
-
Also said brick layer traveled there, but w/e. Murder them in Lawrence.
-
Kentucky down 12 in Rupp at half. Are we still happy about those things?
-
@BeddieKU23 yes always
-
I know we can’t play Dave some times but man the kid has come around where would we have been without his 24
-
I don’t think Marcus plays hero ball at all!

I know I am
-
I think I’m old enough to remember the last time we played well at home
-
Duke lost - -Kentucky down big at home - -& North Carolina not ranked in top 25
-
I can’t even
-
Wilson & Braun - -5-14 - - - 1-8 - -and 11 points
-
Addition by subtraction next yr?

Yup!!! I was screaming at my TV!!! Marcus is not Devonte or Frank. Stop with the hero crap!
-
I felt he was fouled but like, don’t leave it up to college refs lol.
@BeddieKU23 If we can find another guard, probably. It doesn’t help that Marcus is playing out of position.

You know bill told him to drive it. And I’m sure he’d been harping on them all game to drive to SCORE because all our drives had been so pathetic all game. Gotta be good enough to find that pass though.
Real talk we were only in that game because of the triangle and 2. Does anyone else in college hoops play that? I’ve never really seen it anywhere else but it’s possible I just watch more KU basketball than other teams.
-
I didn’t hate Marcus driving it. After all, he put us up by getting to the rim. Have to pass out of that though.
-
I don’t recall seeing it, watch a lot of games during the year.

I mean, it won us a national championship. Not sure why there aren’t more copy cats.
-
Definitely something self pulls out the bag of tricks every so often
-
Marcus had some great drives. Just wish he had the sense the last one wasn’t to his advantage.
-
-
@BShark oh man.
-
Tyon hurt his shoulder. Not sure that explains his play
-
huge problem this year also - - this team has no idenity ? - - Who are we ? - -we gave up 37 fast break points last night - - -THIRTY SEVEN - -that is just NOT acceptable - - THIRTY SEVEN ! ! ! almost half of their points, I mean come on. When is the last time a Bill Self team has given up that kind of fast break points.
How does a breakdown of that magnitude happen? - - lazy ? - -no communication ? - -No basic basketball IQ ? that for a KU team is just flat out embarrassing, there should be no excuse WHY a team gives up 37 fast break points EVER , and Bill best be relaying that to these guys to make it perfectly clear that it better NEVER happen again. that’s sickening.
Exactly who is this team go to bucket getter this year? Jalen ? - - No. - - Christan ? - - No. - -Oachi ? – No - -they are all good shooters BUT not neccessarily bucket getters. - -Like I heard just a few ago , Dotson was a bucket getter , Devonte was a bucket getter , maybe not the fastest dude but the guy could find ways to get THAT BUCKET in Crunch time. - - Frank could find ways to get that HUGE bucket in crunch time - -WE do NOT have that this year.
Like they said THIS YEAR we might as well face it Ku is going to live and die by the 3 - - - 5/21 - -4/20 in big 12 play is NOT going to get you wins in the Big 12. - -This team is a frustrating team to watch.
Long scoring droughts – piss poor shooting stretches - - times where we are a turnover machine looking for a place to happen. - - Then the opposite , just lights out from the three - - getting multiple Steals - -getting out and run – -crazy on defense - - at times like lat night after being down and buried smacking the other team right in the mouth like last night 21-2 run BUT then turn right around and go brain dead a pass to who? - -leaving a guy WIDE WIDE open for the tying 3 even though he IS a 28% shooter dammit you still got to make an attempt - - this = frustration. - -Hard to get pumped for the season when you have these things going on.
Just really frustrating after going through our annual bashing every week during the football Season so you look forward to Basketball and ew have games like this - -test you for sure but as always I’m STILL here to say - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
I always tell you that I don’t get nervous until the last minute. Paid off last night…until the last minute.
