Nice win. McCullar needs to practice that corner 3 about 500 times a day I think. He bricked so many wide open looks
Even hit the side once lol
This was the concern when we got him we knew he was a brick mason and that Self does not give a single shit. That said he is a better option than what we have on the bench by quite a bit in terms of overall game. When he does hit shots we are at our peak.
-
we got to gt SOMETHING offensively out of Juan - - Zero points today
-
Hope you are okay for many years.

ain third straigt time - Coach better get his ass in gear – -they better then that

People that don’t know basketball genuinely wanted a foul when Grill flopped. My goodness.
-
Glad we could get that one with so many old Jayhawks in attendance.
Favorite had to be Nick Collison though. Absolute great dude.

Don’t forgt TCU - -they pretty dam good - -extreme quick on transition

Alabama up 43 on LSU by the way. Hopefully ESPN pulls its head out of its ass next time and puts the right game on national tv
-
I think we all need to get ready for every game to be a nail biter from here on out. Glad we played them here first. Wins putting us on top at the beginning of conference makes it easier to take a L rather than having to win.

True that. When he was with the Sonics he spoke to our alumni group. Class act.

We’re due for a game where things “click”
I wouldn’t want to be KSU against us after back to back “meh” games.

Alabama is TERRIFYING. They are right there with UConn, UCLA etc…
-
Also KJ was 100% fouled on his basket that gave us the lead. But feel free to complain about the refs more ISU fans.
-
Redic how that wasn’t called
-
KJ’s winning bucket was gutsy. KJ shows me more and more each game. Where would this team be without KJ?

Balanced and they are still getting better. Agreed. Brandon Miller is really good

He’s averaging 19 and 8 as a freshman. Looked like Kevin Durant against Gonzaga
-
It’s lonely at the top…is what the rest of those losers keep telling themselves.
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich He would be playing real minutes in the NBA right now if not for the current rules imo.
-
Brandon Miller names top 8: Alabama, Florida, Kansas, Kentucky, Tennessee, Tennessee State, G League and NBL (Australia)
Sometimes the list really does tell you everything.
-
-
In 19 minutes, Bobby took no shots, scored no pts, had one assist, one steal and one TO. Not nearly enough for the opportunity he was given. Bench players must contribute or they stay on the bench.
-
Alabama, Connecticut, Houston, Kansas, Purdue, and UCLA are the legit contenders to me. Rick Barnes can’t make it past the weekend and that’s going back to his Texas days and I don’t trust Texas with their coaching situation. If they still had Beard, I’d call them legit as well.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 leave Purdue off that list and I think it’s solid.
-
@stoptheflop bill’s blinders on this one. He’d say we play better defensively but we lose so much offensively when Bobby plays.
The small two guard lineup is not Frank/Graham vibes or even close so not sure the purpose
-

Their offense is good enough this year to carry them to me. They’re pretty much the opposite of Houston.

Against elite defenses like ISU, the Harris, Pettiford, Yesufu lineup to me is about ball handling and minimizing turnovers.

Who is our Bro or Sister on this thread who keeps track of our missed bunnies? Love it and keep it up please.
My bad, didn’t track em today.
Didn’t seem as bad today, but scoring was challenging.
I’d say free throws won the game for us today. ISU made more FGs than us, but KU made 6 more FTs. Had we shot better than 60% from the line, maybe it wouldn’t have come down to one possession.

Not a good day for Bobby.
Only one official turnover? Seemed like he had way more.
And the MJ Rice saga continues. A healthy scratch. Hmmm. Wonder what he did this time? Disappointing.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 I thought we didn’t turn it over then when we went to that lineup we did.
It’s so bad offensively we hardly get any quality shots even though we don’t turn it over

I’m not saying the 3 guard line up didn’t turn it over because there were some, I’m just saying that protecting the ball against ISU’s defense was likely Self’s logic in using that line up.
-
Watching the players post game interview on Kusports, and about the 3 minute mark Gradey was talking about the defense and he says “yea we were just sucking the D” and then slaps the table, and laughing and looking at KJ and JWill, and then they all try to suppress their laughter, but have the giggles for awhile. Pretty funny. Great bunch of kids having fun out there. And with a real shot at repeating the NC which would just be unimaginably sweet.

KU was 7/7 on layups in the first half. Don’t know about the second half.

@Jethro bill will look at the tape and if his reasoning for that lineup was to take care of the ball hopefully he will see the did the opposite and gave up the lead in the first half
We keep eeking out these wins at home, I’m curious to see how we fair in legit road games. As Bill said of the 4-0 teams we by far have had the easiest schedule.

K-State got murdered on Saturday. Same with Missourah. What sorry programs they both have.
-
@Jethro tough to win on the road… difficult stretch starts Tuesday
Anyone else notice TJ didn’t coach his team in timeouts? It was Green leading every huddle with tj standing back and listening….I found that odd because it happened all game not just a one off situation

I hate to be the Debbie Downer on peoples parade I love Ku just sa much as the next guy but I’m saying right now I truly believe we get beat Tuesday Night.
Like you said we have been eeking out wins to many one possession ball games , I worry that the guys thinking they can just turn it on anytime they want. - -We are getting into a routine of falling behind and then have to bust our ass to get back in it.
I love the fight and grit of the team but I just don’t feel we are playing solid enough steady enough and one of these times that kind of play is going to come back and bite us right square in the ass. I know some will disagree with what I say and that’s fine- -people are entitled to do so, just one persons opinion I just think it is set up perfect Tuesday - K/State playing really poorly , coming back home playing their big enemy - -KU /Rival - -the place is going to be ROCKIN/JUMPIN - and if they get on any kind of roll- - - - -I could be just as easily wrong to - -just feeling the way w are playing right now - -not terrible BUT not the best y far either - I just feel w are prime to get beat.
Plus on down the road if we don’t get some kind of production from the bench get that reliable 6th /7th man come tourney time we be screwed
-
@jayballer67 I agree that place will be rocking for their super bowl. Good game for Kevin to get out of his funk and Juan to take it personal with Nowell.
Not sure what @Jethro’s deal is he’s adding as much to the board as cardboard with these takes. Somehow it’s personal with the “yours not so much” as if you don’t 100% believe we will win every game you aren’t a true fan.
At least come with a breakdown of what you @Jethro think will happen not some three sentence snarky comment; so irritated as if you made fun of your golden child
There’s people who discuss basketball and then there’s @Jethro

I like our chances-yours, not so much. We’ll see how you do when we lock up Nowell. Thanks for the concern, though.
you keep that positve thoughts there buddy -your not addressing how we are playing- what we gonna do when they lock down Dick ? - -Jalen is in a real shotting slump - -his % is continuing the downward spiral

One tiny problem though - -if Jalen continues shooting like he has these last 4 - 5 games - -they lock up Dick - -who’s gonna provide enough scoring for us ? - - NOT KEVIN - that leaves Juan? - -If Jalen doesn’t come out have a really solid game- - it looks bleak, - -we are just not playing that well and we not in the Phog - hope your right, and your welcome for the concern lmao

Oh I’m not gonna take what Jethro says personal, if I’m miss reading his comment and it is personal - -then so be it. My thing is I try to be a realist too, not live behind Crimson & Blue shaded glasses 100 % daily. - -I’ve been here long enough and have known Jethro from here from the get go - -it’s ok . Everyone is entitled to their opinion , doesn’t mean we have to agree.
All I know we are not playing solid ball - to many turnovers - -3 pt shooting not that great -Jalen not hitting shots like he was earlier in the /Season - - no bench. If we want to get anywhere in the tourney - -we have got to have a bench of some kind.
The part if he is and not saying that but if that were the case that I’m not true fan - -I promise you I’m as true a KU fan as anyone here. - Matter of fact for one when I was younger if ANYONE use to talk shade about KU with me - -we would bout come to blows - - I hated it let my temper get in way of logic. – If your not a true fan - -you sure the hell not gonna have KU tatoos- on your arm and Calf- -kinda hard to deny some says oh I see your tat you a fricken KU fan huh - -you say oh hell no can’t stand them why you say that lol.
I’ve been following KU forever been a fan for a long , long time since around 1960. - remember listening to games on the radio before they were on TV all the time - -sit at the kitchen table and listen. Had paper and pen so I would keep track of the KU players how many points they score - -how many fouls - -how many TO’s we had - -Rebounds we got - -every game - -I still do. - - I remember listening to the Game where JO JO hit the shot late in the game and they said his foot was out of bounds
I’ve been a fan since or before Pierre Russell - -JO JO White - - Danny Knight - -Walt Wesley , Aubrey Nash - -Roger Morningstar - -Bud Stalworth - -Dave Robisch, Kelly Knight - -Nino Samuel - -Clint Normore - - Tom Kivisto - - Ronnie Kellogg- — Calvin Pony Thompson - - Greg Dreiling to name just a few - -I remember use to going to KC for the Big 8 Christmas tournament in the old Municipal building - - I remember being in the hall and looking up and my 1st autograph or one of them looking up and thinking --Dam he is huge when I ask Roger Bonensthil spelt wrong sorry those were the days. - I remember being able to walk into Allen and pretty much picking your seat when we had down years with Coach Owens - -So really don’t think anything about it when or if people think I’m not a true fan lmao. - It’s ok - I just think we could be in real trouble Tuesday - -if they don’t think that fail to acknowledge that - then that’s on them. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

I don’t take your criticisms of our team, our coach, and our players seriously, Mr. Hat. I don’t take trolls seriously. Not this name, or the other names you use. I know we live inside your head rent free 100% of the time. Let’s make a deal- you keep complaining, and we’ll keep winning.
-
@Jethro more of the same I’m not surprised (words without any substance).
I’m definitely not @jayballer67 so not sure why you responded negatively to him/her the way you did.
I’d get it if you respond that way to me but all you do is destroy the board when you can’t discuss the pro’s and con’s about the hawks.
-
@jayballer67 don’t waste your time jethro can’t pontificate on basketball worth a 2 dollar bill.
Be careful your gonna get called a troll or mr hat because you are actually watching the games with two eyes rather than box score analyzing and saying “we won what is there to worry?”
-
@jayballer67 My apologies, my friend. I was trying to respond to the troll, and I ended up responding to you on accident. I believe every caution you listed. But, I think K-State is much less adept at defense than an Iowa St. I don’t think they have the ability to stop us. I do think our plan is to pressure Nowell 94 feet. I think it will be tough, but I think we come out on top.
