We need you Braun, dtive…
-
Fran can go back to Fransylvania or wherever bloodsucking leprechauns go when they’re not spouting anti Kansas bias
-
Sorry guys, sucky outcome. Bad all the way around.
-
He’s giving waaay too much credit to TT. L

We’ll get them back in Lawrence. Sometimes good to see Bill get outcoached. Make him look for answers and counter punches
Texas fans thought TTU fans were joking when they said Adams was the brains of the operation…
-
Zone for conference play. All in.

Refs need a timeout to get their shit together
Nothing truer has ever been written on these hallowed pages.
-
@approxinfinity or some 5 guard press Virginia style.
Or like anything that doesn’t involve Dave

Your opinion @BShark? Should Adams have played more?
-
Rock Chalk. Hope the Chiefs get it going
-
Adams was horrible when he did play?
-
Adams is a man’s man. He was Beards Beard
-
@Marco Adams as in the new coach at TT
-
Dave was -12 on the floor in 14 minutes

This game was still winnable and Tech was missing guys but holy moley the charge calls in this game… The worst part is it didn’t go both ways.
-
The zone worked but so much other stuff didn’t ill leave it at that.
-
Oh, okay…
-
Thoughts on the game, everyone?
-
Not scoring 70 with all the scorers we have is disappointing to say the least.
-
@Marco under further scrutiny my statement isn’t logical but it sounded funny in my head.

I think it is our best bet long term. Remy needs to get healthy. I don’t care if we lose to ISU if Remy is still hurt don’t play him.
-
@approxinfinity he’s gonna play 10 min a game when healthy and Harris will start next year.
Watched ku ball probably like you for decades…self ain’t changing a guy who starts this year and his back won’t be passed up as much as Bobby should start
Self stunts growth it’s a reason recruiting trail he struggles. Coaches sell against him on it and his system and how strict he is.
We still get guys but not like other blue bloods and we can see the whiff inside this year but Bill didn’t want anyone thought Dave was enough
-
@bskeet we shot efficiently enough tbh. We just let tech shoot 52% and take more shots

The officials were almost as atrocious as our frontcourt.
-
Non travel call in front of Self called a foul instead, 2 points them instead of our ball. Non 3 second call in lane leads to and 1. 3 more points for them. Charge called when Braun did exactly what they did to us 4 times in the first half and got the call. 1 point them. Our rebounder shoved out of bounds leads to and 1. 3 points. Braun gets whacked in face on dunk. Nada -1 point for us. Lose ball Harris shoved to ground, their ball. (I forget if that leads to points or not) 2 times very quick whistle for jump ball, the last one was egregious. 2 possessions lost. I know I’m missing some, but these calls were impactful.
-
Horns. Hawks, Cyclones and Bears all on the road today. We missed our chance along with the Horns and if the Bears and/or Cyclones win then well you know.
-
18-44 pts in paint
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Oh man.
-
17 turnovers never helps a team win I acknowledge. Jalen Wilson finally scores some points and inexplicably doesn’t rebound the basketball. Obviously no one besides JW and OA were scoring. That of course was huge.
-
-
Post game is always on espn+
-
@Crimsonorblue22 said in Red Raiders:
18-44 pts in paint
Also got outrebounded 34-24. We just have no inside presence this year.
-
That rebound Wilson lost killed us after the ft
-
We are going to get embarrassed by a few teams this year if we don’t make changes. I’m for embracing healthy portions of zone
-
Our 5 is going to be the un doing for us - -we have Nothing. - My Kingdom for a quality big man. - -No 5 and then horrible defense, don’t get your hopes up unless this gets fixed - and fixed soon
-
You get outscored - - -44 – 18 in the paint , no more needs said - inexcusable
-
Some pts in the paint were perimeter guys getting by our guys and off 2nd shots/boards.
-
Bad officiating or not, KU didn’t deserve to win today. 4 points, 7 rebounds, and 2 assists combined from the 5 spot today with zero production from Mitch.
Also why did Remy only play 12 minutes today? Injury or something else?

Remy still hurt some but not his best game either when he was in

so many were just to easy , lots of 2-3 footers in the lane
-
We just look out of kelter , no other way to say other then our defense is just terrible. - not sure what the kenpom rankings defensively where we stand but I know were dead last in the big 12 and it showed. Beat time and time and time again in the lane. It hurts we have no inside presence defensively -well we have no inside presence offensively either.
We just look choppy on offense no flow none of smooth flow just out of sync , forced shots , bad shots , missed shots -baad rebounding getting beat today by like 10 I believe mercy got to clean things up and soon
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 I guess he told self before game he didn’t think he could go. Just shot at warmups. Guess he changed his mind? Not sure, got 3 quick fouls
-
@jayballer67 our players aren’t real quick laterally…ochai never has been because he can’t beat his man off the dribble and same for the rest of them. Harris is weak, David uncoordinated, jalen another slow laterally.
Only real quick athletes are remy (when he’s not hurt) pettiford and Joe
-
@approxinfinity agreed…zero offense inside when Mitch isn’t going up against SFA and same for Dave.
Braun literally can’t disappear because Harris and Wilson neither can throw it in the ocean or score.
It leaves Ochai and that’s it with Braun. That’s what coach has pushed though with them carrying the load when many here saw Braun would come back down to earth it’s not sustainable.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 at least he didn’t strip naked and then run off the court, right?
-
well, that wasn’t pleasant. The most frustrating part of watching KU hoops for me: Dave receives the ball on the low post in good position. All he has to do is go up not even semi quickly over his right shoulder to the rim and score. But no. He puts it on the floor. backpedals 10 feet, heads to the middle of the lane and hoists up a 10 foot left handed clunker. every time nearly. maddening.
MORE KJ!!! Don’t care if he makes a few mistakes. energy.

I am onboard, Dave plays small so we might as well go small. For whatever reason, he has never fully understood that he is 6’10, always dribbling first even if right by the hoop. I mean serious, how many times has he even dunked? Anyone?
It is time to play KJ.
-
Glad I missed the game. Execution and effort at the end killed them. Missed layup by och, not getting rebounds which was all effort, loose balls, etc. Didn’t look like a team out there on replay just some individuals
-
Also on replay what a dreadful first half of play, really hard to watch with Wilson the only production on offense. You won’t win games when that’s the case. The game was lost in the first half.
The missed foul on Harris stealing the ball with 1 minute left is a joke. Only a home crowd ref let’s that go. Doesn’t get any easier then that on a call.
This team isn’t getting better and the break in December may have disrupted everything that was built. They need to play at home and get back to themselves
