Worried about the bigs, but Bill will figure something out, even if he has to play McCullar down there

Are we gonna be better than last year?
Are we as good as the national champions? Uhhh…we were down 20-6.

How many assists did Juan have? 10?

Haha. But it was fun to watch! Loaded

I am getting a solarium put in and can’t wait for it to get finished. See you on Monday. OMAHA (Peyton’s favorite)

Rebounding is a massive issue for KJ.
-
Nobody had more than 4 rebounds, weird

Bill will fix this pronto

Well guys things I learned from this 1st contest.- -1: – Our DEFENSE is going to help us – - A LOT this season. - - Yes I know it’s Pitt State but 27 turnovers - - KU with 17 Steals. Ended up hitting 40 % from the three.
2.nd :- -I think we found out probably Grady Dick looks like the real deal - -complete player , looked pretty dam calm – smooth.
3rd: - Our 5 spot, to me if we are looking for more of scoring option -I think Zach is our guy - -he just looks so much more fluid. KJ good ball game - -gonna take some time for our other two, BUT like I said if were going to ty and get more out of our five - - think has to be Zach.
Other players looking decent , thought Bobby played a really solid game - - Kevin did well. We might take some lumps early , gonna take a little time , but think we gonna be ok.

Won’t see self till turkey break.

How about 19 steals
-
My husband graduated from Pitt State!

Joe shows he isn’t ready for prime time. If Joe’s mind could overcome his fear, I think he could be a pretty good player. 1 for 7 isn’t going to get you alot of playing time.
I thought Pettiford was brilliant. He needs more minutes.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 - will he still be at practices providing guidance?
-
@Gorilla72 yes, how about in the locker room at games?
-
Wonder if he can text them?
-
My mistake just heard them say KU with 19 steals not 17
-
Did someone give Gueldner some happy pills? Dude never has anything good to say about KU (it’s out of love, obvs) but is pretty satisfied tonight

I heard at half time Jeff hada written a book - -was talking but didn’t realize he had Cancer and had been through his Divorce
-
Lets go Phillies!
-
@FarmerJayhawk He talked about Bobby and playing after surgery and holding his hand near the area. I saw him do that.
-
Juando did up his offensive game- he took 6 shots tonite. I thought he could’ve penetrated the defense more, but can’t argue about 10 assists.
Jalen missed a few layups. 9 for 17 is acceptable, though.
McCullars fits right in.
Gradey is the star of the team.

Boo!
Astros ARE CHEATERS!!

I want Bryce Harper to get one.
-
I’d like to see Dusty Baker get one, but not with the Astro cheaters
-
Boschee is up next. I really really liked him.

They call us cheaters,too. Teams have been stealing signs in baseball for 100 years. Not sorry!

@Jethro Pettiford is clearly the back-up PG. He needs to be willing to shoot to get much time next to Dajuan imo.
-
Coach Self said he doesn’t know what he is going to do Monday - -said maybe play Golf , I guess he said he won’t even be in the Office on Monday
-
We didn’t start playing until we were down by 15. Just like our football team
-
@RockChalkinTexas me too!🥰
-
@Jethro They literally caught the ass-stros beating on garbage cans to relay info to the hitters from a camera in the rafters. Not like a runner on second tipping off the batter

Couldn’t agree more buddy - - Bobby needs to play- --just stay healthy
-
I love he dives on the floor, but that hip…oh and the bandaid on his face

Screw off with your “Ass-tros” shit. Every team had a sign stealing system in place. Carlos Beltran is the one who told the Astros about the Yankess system and why the Astros developed their own season. Also doesn’t change that the Astros had a better road than home record in 2017 and won that World Series in Dodger Stadium. Keep on hating and the Astros are just gonna keep on winning.

Ass-stros three S’s
-
After the game tonight bill self stated that MJ Has a lower back injury
-
@FarmerJayhawk like our new guys, just really miss CB, Och, Big Dave. Oh and Mitch!
-
@JAYHAWKFAN214 I’m really anxious to see MJ play.

Don’t really give a shit. After Saturday night, you can address them as Champs. I’ll be sure to send you a WS Champs shirt.

Back to the game where we all can agree who are the good guys… Some takeaways:
Jalen Wilson: the only thing holding him back from being pretty awesome almost every night is his head / mindset.
Grady Dick: looks like a scorer. Good now. Should be very good by Feb. I expect him to start henceforth.
Kevin: Really solid and will save our bacon in several games this year. He will become our most reliable player by January.
Juan: Pretty much where he left off last year. Would have liked him to find at least one 3. Its something he should have worked on during the offseason.
KJ: Bouncy and athletic as ever. Should be much improved by conference. If not, someone else will need to take his place as a starter.
Bobby: I can see him becoming a force.
This team looks like it is at it’s best when it’s pushing the pace and is able to take advantage of its athleticism. This means it’s fragile and vulnerable to teams that are disciplined and know how to slow the pace (and shoot the 3). McCullar is the only guy that looked like he could be depended on to produce in that kind of match up.
PS: Jeff Bochee: Looked great and had his team ready. Seeing him on the court (even with all that hair) brought back some fond memories.
-
@bskeet I’m sure Juan did, 10 assists and 6 pts isn’t to shabby.
-
Whoooaaa doggie!
Gradey’s got a smoooottth stroke! Wow.
It was our first game, and an exhibition, so not sure how much we can read into things.
I do have the same concern I’ve had since the summer…3 pt shooting. Gonna need some more. Once teams scout Grady and shove him off the line as best they can, somebody will have to step up.
That paired with zero post game could be a basic basketball problem against big boy teams.
Waaaayy better second half.
How do you think our young bigs did? First glance not sure I can tell much about their games yet. Udeh had some dunks! For some reason I had it in my head that Zuby would be the better of the two.
Cuffe played!!! How bout that? I was excited to see him and the new bigs.
I’m afraid Self is asking things of Joe that he simply isn’t comfortable with — get downhill to the hoop.
-
@DanR lolz I remember that from making Houston our whipping boy back in the NL Central day before they ran west.
