Baylor Game Tonight



  • @RockChalkinTexas Remy was always a much much better offensive player than Kevin. I just mean on offense he might have grown. But sure Kevin can do great things for us this year but i dont think it will be on offense.



  • with all our dysfunction… not really a surprise we can’t close games now.



  • Look at the numbers I’m not sure how we ended within 20. So that’s some sort of positive or something? Idk



  • yeah… Bilas… did he see Duke lost to VT right before this? lol



  • Rebounding killed KU tonight. I don’t even want to know how many 2nd chance points Baylor had tonight.



  • 16/16 on FT’s.



  • Just not used to seeing inferior coaching and playing. Never will get used to it. #RockChalk



  • Defense was pretty good in the 2nd half. We hit the freebies. Our bench is basically useless.



  • They shot 25 free throws to our 16. Definitely a factor.



  • 6 of ours were definitely after it was all but over, just sayin



  • 17 offensive rebounds given up is why we lost.

    Doug Sirmons can step on a rake though



  • So it will be KSU at home being the game we need to win to stop a 5 game losing streak.



  • points off turnovers: BU: 21, KU: 7



  • Our players are probably feeling pretty low about themselves right now. Time to get to work, stay hungry and find our confidence, get the next one.



  • I like our chances against Kentucky more than any remaining b12 road game



  • Coach Q’s dad died this am. too.



  • At least McCullar made a shot or two. Now it’s time to get Juan back on track.



  • @DanR you forget about shibway



  • @KirkIsMyHinrich said in Baylor Game Tonight:

    Offensive rebounds and fricken turnovers



  • Man… if we had Filipowski (spelling)… we’d still be undefeated.



  • @RockChalkinTexas said in Baylor Game Tonight:

    Coaching wasn’t the issue tonight in the sense that Self somehow kept this team within striking distancedown the stretch. KU doesn’t have a bench and KJ Adams can’t rebound for shit. 1 damn defensive rebound from your starting 5. Combine that with him being basically useless on offense the last few games and we’re now in the worst case scenario offensively for KU where teams can once again ignore Adams and ignore Harris since he’s been useless the last 4 games now.



  • At 48-48, refs took over. Put these last 3 behind you, come out and play loose at Kentucky to get mojo back

    Have a better week ahead. We are supposed to get much needed rain🙏



  • @RockChalkinTexas

    Love your optimism… but I’m not feeling it in Lexington this year. Hopefully, I reverse jinx them!



  • Nah. Probably 20 point beat down in Lexington. But it’s meaningless if we get rest this week like coach thinks we apparently need. I personally don’t see it with 18-20 yr olds. Lol. But I’m willing to listen



  • @drgnslayr if we had filipowski we would have the most punchable face



  • @kuballin10 said in Baylor Game Tonight:

    Juan and kj been badddddd

    You take an hour off after KU rights the ship and then start commenting again. We make a great comeback, get screwed by the refs, and then in your view, we’re garbage and so it’s time to start commenting again.



  • @cragarhawk

    Actually… a good strategy! Fellas get the week off and just get blistered in Lexington. We pick up more chip and some rest! I’m in for that.



  • @drgnslayr I’m really not in for it. Cause I really don’t think they need rest. But I’m not the coach. But I don’t think that Jan noncon game means shit to CS. So I don’t look for him to spend a lot of time on it



  • It’s not as bad as a stick in the eye. We’ve been spoiled. Most teams go through this every season. At least your dog didn’t run away. I’ve still got a buck 3 80 left in the bank. Got enough gas in the tank to go back and teach those beautiful children tomorrow. All of you are still my friends but some of you are pushing it! Catchers and pitchers report in a month and the sun is taking longer to tuck itself in at night. Oh and one other thing:

    WE’RE THE DEFENDING NATIONAL CHAMPION AND 4 STALWARTS FROM THAT TEAM MOVED ON.



  • At some point just realizing you may not be that good and hitting a lot of 3’s hides a lot of sin is okay too. Step 1- Identification. Step 2- washing it off.

    Control what you can control. Fundamentals and defense



  • @wissox refs were bad for both sides….don’t turn it over and rebound we’d win oh and the pg gotta score more then 2 points

    Dude is laying eggs right and left



  • Dajuan hasnt been the same since getting his brains scrambled. Give the kid a break. Champion.



  • @approxinfinity go check previous games before jusr creating some narrative that isn’t true.

    He struggled agains osu, ou and Iowa state all well before the ksu game

    Champion is a team W it’s like qb wins in nfl. Team won the title and Juan was on it but in order of importance for the W he was probably 6th.

    Dave Remy Och Braun JW

    Then Juan



  • @kuballin10 remy wasn’t second.



  • @kuballin10 “We make a great comeback and get screwed by the refs”. Read the game thread. About 10 comments in a row after the comeback about this call and that call. Equally bad? Not sure, but my comment was about that critical stretch where we get bumped and nada, and then tap guy on shoulder and ref calls a foul. Pretty egregiously bad reffing there.

    Go ahead rag on our point guard. He spectacularly led this team to a national championship. He’s hit a bit of a wall here like everyone else besides Jalen but your estimation of how bad he’s hurting this team is way off.

    And again, your takes would be easier to stomach if you ever thought it was ok to say something good during a game chat, but you’re so predictable in when you comment.



  • I think CS would strongly disagree with the assessment of Juan’s contribution to the NC. It started on the defensive end and it started with Juan. Nearly verbatim



  • @Crimsonorblue22 who was and why?

    Remy saved us against creighton

    Remy definitely saved us against providence

    Remy won against unc

    Och was shut down by a frosh named Johnson. Had an and 1 and struggled second half go back and watch it. Johnson hit 1-2 threes and outplayed him

    Dave - Remy - Och - Braun/JW and then Juan



  • @wissox he didn’t lead them

    Remy played more minutes against tech in big 12 title and it continued

    Juan spurred the comeback with his D but also stepped out of bounds almost costing us late as he sat the last 8-10 minutes as Remy took over.

    Juan is an Alex smith type pg. He needs everyone around him to be great to “lead” them to victory. He can’t go manufacture offense on his own.

    Give me Frank and Graham all day over a Juan.

    Juan is tired Bill has to sub Bobby for Juan not alongside him because Juan is getting abused on D which is normally his strength and turning it over more because he’s gassed



  • @cragarhawk yeah he was so good he sat the final 8-10 minutes.

    We don’t win it without him but if he plays 39 minutes that game we aren’t holding the trophy.

    Juan is good hes played better this year when he’s looking to score unfortunately hes struggling lately.

    We got no choice but to let him play through it but the whole “most underrated guard in America” is a bill blind spot and comical. He effects the game in so many ways is just term for he has a few more steals and hockey assists than your average pg

    This is Bill’s team and the pg he loves most so curious to see where it takes him and what his opinion is after it

  • @Kcmatt7 said in Baylor Game Tonight:

    Bill has no levers to pull this year

    But who’s fault is that? He’s gotta set up the levers so they’re ready to be pulled (insert Gradey Dick joke here).



  • Very disappointed in Bill for that Technical. Can’t happen. Cost his team a chance, as faint as it was. His mess!



  • Players not named Dick & Wilson went 6-23 from the field.

    Same starters not named Dick & Wilson are 18-50 from the field in last 3 games. The math sucks.

    Can’t win if 3 starters can’t shoot.

    Block him. He isn’t a KU fan- he’s a troll.



  • My blood pressure is so much lower after deciding not to watch the games live. I look at the score after the game is over. If we won, I watch it (no commercials), if we lost, I go for a hike, go grocery shopping, go to a movie…

    Sure, call me a fair weather fan. But it works for me. And I’ll live long enough to not watch them lose again.



  • @nuleafjhawk

    Lucky. Do what works for you. This is not a game you want to throw on not unless you want to live a bit less.



  • @Jethro what did I say that’s wrong?

    Juan has played poorly for 4 games

    KJ has been bad these last 2 games (coincides with teams figuring out how to guard our pick and roll which is dare Juan to shoot and he won’t or when he doesn’t it isn’t well)

    JW - a stud

    Gradey - he’s growing and battling hard on D and the boards when his shot isn’t falling like the last few games

    Kev - struggled badly but last night was better a double double. Hopefully out of his funk

    Bobby - awful - needs to be the backup pg not first wing off the bench. He and Juan play together and the lead increases just like it has the last 3 games. 4 guys who can’t score, 2 don’t even look to shoot or even drive the lane and JW

    Joe - awful - not the scorer he hoped to be this year

    Clemence - weak

    Zuby/Udeh/Rice - need more run even though they make stupid frosh mistakes

    Bill said it they are bigger than us. We get dominated on the offensive glass every game and KJ’s ability to score 15 has been taken away and he still is an awful rebounder on the defensive end

    Yes, you can be a fan and still see the warts. Curious how Bill figures this one out. Guys have regressed offensively and defensively



  • Okay… it’s in moments like this that some of us say stuff out of emotion, then often later apologize or get called out when we start playing better again.

    This now qualifies as a “dip”… even though we can argue that only the home loss was unexpected.

    We’ve been extremely spoiled ever since our last losses last year including that UK beatdown at AFH.

    So if we’ve been spoiled, don’t you think our players have been spoiled? Heck… we (and team) have been living in denial before we started collecting multiple “Ls.” We’ve been winning by just a couple of points every game and then instead of looking at why we weren’t pounding these teams we applauded our coolness and ability to finish games.

    We’ve got a bunch of talented guys… but it takes more than that. We’ve got to turn it up a notch for 40-minutes (not just a few minutes per game).

    Being in a tough league pushes us to bring game for 40 minutes. And that’s exactly where our mindset has to be for March. Best we learn it now and we still have time to go on a long run in February and regain confidence.



  • I’m not reading much into this 3 game skid. From what Self has said, a few times now, is he’s resting the players more this year to play the long game for the conference. With the extra day off that of course means less practice. Duh.

    Hopefully the other teams beat each other up throughout the season while we’re more rested in March.

    Having said that, there are concerns though but the team is not lost.



  • @nuleafjhawk and surprise surprise you still get to watch the vast majority of our games!
