They also shot 60% plus for a majority of the game. Don’t think that kinda shooting would happen again
-
As I recall, part of the reason they shot 60% was because they had their way with us in the paint (dunks and lots of offensive rebound/putbacks).
I remember when we were that kind of team. We just don’t have the personnel this season.
-
Yeah Brooks made a lot of short range jumpers too. Oscar made long 2’s, same for Wheeler. Those 3 shot above their pay grade. Happens

Plays dont score the players do Guards win in March
This thread has and will always hold true

So it’s February 9… and Remy still seems off in the distant future. At a certain point, even if he comes back, just how much can we see him help our team? He definitely seems like a better personal offensive threat than Joseph… but we weren’t focused on him getting shots before he went down. It seems like we’ve got adequate firepower now.
March is just a few weeks away. And it doesn’t sound like Remy will be back this week, or probably next week. I don’t expect he will ever dribble a KU basketball at 100%.
I hope Joseph continues to get reasonable minutes because he looks like a very important piece to our puzzle moving forward. We should still expect his play to improve because more play gets him into the offensive/defensive stream.

Just play Joe. He’s 100% healthy and there’s no drama. Kid just wants an opportunity to earn his keep.

Nothing to do with this tweet BUT - - -good ol CJ ya good ol CJ. - -he was on the local sports broadcast here in Topeka talking about to KU fans OH - - hold off on making plans , talking about Iowa gonna be the one coming out of our region and KU wouldn’t be going anywhere. - -Well CJ ol buddy where the hell is Iowa NOW? - I can tell where they will be - -they gonna be in the stands watching KU continue to play - - that’s where lmao
-
I’m still really high on Zach. If he gets stronger, he will eventually be our leading rebounder. He has the scent for it like Jalen does.
-
Good lord, he has come along. Him and Gradey is a very problematic pairing for opponents if it happens.

There’s also a decent chance only one of them starts next year.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 yeah, that will be incredible if it happens.

So that’s MJ Rice. my first look at him. Dude looks strong! From what i’d read previously, i’d pictured a different player. I thought he’d be more of a wiggins/josh jackson type. Looks totally different. gotta change my perspective! 6-5 for real? Not a knock, but doesn’t look close to that. (again my Josh/wiggs brain at work)

The best KU comparison is Selden IMO.
-
Looks like he lost some weight since last fall. Hopefully he’s quick enough to play the 2

I still have strong doubts on that.
-
The Selden comp is on the money. He’s thick as a brick.
-
Just talking thinking out loud here - but what does it really matter as long as he is athletic enough to guard on the perimeter? They basically play 3 wings now and just switch 1-4. Feel like we’ll get a lot more of the same next season.

Wow shocking pick.
-
Experience seems to be pretty good too

@BShark Seems like there could be a pattern there. He did say his new goal as a coach with recruiting is trying to figure out how to get old and stay old. The dream is still a core of upperclassmen with a superstar freshmen but that hasn’t really worked out for us yet.
This might lead to some tempering of expectations for next year if we do actually lose Och, Dave, Jalen and Braun. Really need one of those last two to stay for the stability of the program next year but I hope they make the best decisions for themselves.
