Looks like Wilson made the trip
-
It’s GAMEDAY
-
Wow! They are considerably taller than us! We better get out and run! Better hit the defensive boards hard because I’m sure Izzo will be targeting the offensive glass with this size difference!
-
Let’s get it going… Ready for some Jayhawk bball!

This is correct. Not having Jalen for this game really sucks.
-
Taller but not better.

Bill would call MSU “soft”, Izzo probably does in practice.
-
They lost half of their scoring from a 15-13 team. There is a reason that they started the season unranked…
-
I see us getting off to a slow start then pulling away in the second half. Typical.
Hope I get to see the game on a big screen. Just lost power after a nasty windstorm. Funnel cloud sighted nearby, rare for the Northwest.

Tait saying Cam Martin will redshirt. Wonder what the deal is there? I’d heard zilch about that.

Crazy! Don’t think he would factor in much next year either but if he loves being in the program, there are worse guys to have around at the end of the bench.

It’s weird for sure. Self and co know what they’re doing I guess he’s decent insurance. Also gets his whole master’s paid for which is probably some factor. Doesn’t seem like a pro.
-
@FarmerJayhawk self must think he can develop him into being a factor next year. You’re right tho, I never even thought about him being a redshirt candidate

Sounds like he just doesn’t have it athletically for this level in the eyes of the staff. But yeah next year the next oldest guy in the post will be Zach (LOL) barring a vet transferring in. So it’s always good to have an older guy around, for practice if nothing else. If he helps bridge next season that’s a bonus.
-
@Oldmanhawk Ditto. I should’ve done the math but I thought this was the end of his eligibility barring something weird like a medical. But turns out he’s only played 4 (last year didn’t count) so is a 2x1.
-
Did not expect that at all
We shall see if he is right
-
Cam Martin with the red shirt??? Wow. That is out of the blue. Anybody else yet? I thought Cam would get some PT this year. Next year won’t guys like Adams and Clemence log jam his spot? Weird.
-
Official he will redshirt per Self. Cuffe still possible as well
-
Well, that can only mean one thing, for better and possibly worse: More Mitch time!
-
Wow mitch is the backup again. So bill.
Bobby or Yesufu will be first guard off bench
-
Adams and Clemence will play this year, how much he doesn’t know
-
Hopefully enough so that I don’t have to see Mitch a lot
-
We get a starting lineup for tonight yet? I gotta work some more, so will DVR it for tonight.
-
I would assume Harris, Remy, Braun, Agbaji, and Dave
-
MSU start 7’0, 6’9, 6’8, 6’6, 6’0 so maybe Self goes bigger
-
Thoughts? … Rock Chalk Jayhawk… Not impressed with either Duke or Kentucky.

Whz listening to the local sports broadcast today & hosts they made some really good points I though about the game last night. The 1st thing one brought up and if you think about it have to agree. He said offensively he was impressed , because being the 1st game of the year your offense is usually can be rust lagging. He said but for KU to come out and hang 87 points on any Tom Izzo tam is pretty dam good, he said especially when you consider McCormack didn’t really have that great of a game , AND you was missing Jalen Wilson- you take that combination and hang 87 on Michigan State - -not to shabby.
Also talked about Oachi and scoring his 29 points , not necessarily that he scored 29 points BUT how efficient he was in scoring those 29 points in taking 17 shots to score those 29 points , said he looked like for once he had the look of a dominant player, like I’m gonna get mine
They brought up other good points about the team - talking saying Bill wanted after last year to be more athletic - - they ARE more athletic , talked about how the team can get out and run every position player for his position can get out - - true. - - - talked about the young guys being Athletic - - -He mentioned and I agree - -we got us one I think with Bobby Pettiford - -kid is gonna be a stud.
They talked about saying now - - if you think Oachi is going to go out and score 29 night in and night out - - that’s not going to happen BUT like they said he shouldn’t have to , if Oachi can go out score in between 15-20 in a game - -were good, and saying what we seen from Dave last night isn’t what were going to see as the Season goes on - -talked about how he always starts slow, that they know he will come talking about if Christian goes out and gets those 7-8 rebounds a game can hit an open three every now and then when he got it, grab some rebounds like he did last night - that’s all we need. - -Talking about how we know Remy is gonna get his, you figure he didn’t score in the 1st half last night and ends with 15 , true they said he may take some forced shots BUT he makes those shots - for the most part. - Lot’s of good points brought out.
Said true you can’t over value ONE game but for the 1st game against a quality opponent - pretty solid
