I hope we don’t snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
-
@DanR couldn’t we just not ever play like crap in the tournament. Seems much nicer
-

This is good experience… like a first or second round challenge in the tourney when you play like crap
But there aren’t too many 300+ ranked teams in the tourney…
-
Snatching da feet is for fall on floor teams
-
ElMarko off the marko
-
Offmarko?
-
See when we try hard it’s ok
-
@wissox just looked at the score on Bleacher Report. I would not commit such blasphemy during a KU game!
-
Badmarko
-
We’re going to win this but we’d better play better against UConn
-
Clockmarko
-
Get a stop here and bucket and call it a day
-
This is like being Apollo Creed in Rocky 1
“MAN, I WON… BUT I DIDNT BEAT HIM”
-
Need rest
-
Elmarko could have made a stride with that 3.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 5 days of vacation and fuckery. They’re teenagers… lol. Except McCullar
-
Starters 1-7 from 3…
-
@cragarhawk and Justin
-
Took Juan 38:54 to score. Ha
-
Juando better be hitting from three against UConn
-
This team is ass at fts.
-
HD
-
@BeddieKU23 Can’t ask more than that from a top ranked point guard…
-
Tiger Bookers a baller
-
Never speak of this game again
-
Booker is a decent player
-
Hunter uses tall
It’s super effective
-
A wins a win. Onto the next
-
@rcjhdraft what game?
-
We almost got the spread
-

This team is ass at fts.
3 point shooting was pretty much ass tonight as well.
-
I dont agree with Waynes assessment at all. But i didnt like him as a player either
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 to be fair. There wasn’t much that wasn’t. Minus the W
-
@approxinfinity what??? Banned!
-
KU definitely got caught looking ahead to UConn tonight.
-
Yes, we need to get the ball to Hunter in big games, but we need the rest of the team to grow and that was the point of this game. Wayne can be so 2 dimensional
-
Pretty good game by KJ and HD… everyone else STEP UP
-
I liked Wayne’s game tho. You’re way out of line on that. Altho… Graves did come up big in the tournament
I missed 2 in the ESPN tournament challenge that year. Some dumb ass 1st round game. And f’n Syracuse
Mmmm. F’n syracuse
-
The funny thing about Wayne saying the ball needs to go to Hunter every play to score is exactly why that team got beat by Bucknell. The team was broken because it tried to feed it to Wayne every play.
-
Nothing like a dentist trip at 7 pm on a Tuesday. Probably a combination of jet lag and looking ahead to Friday. One thing Self has always said that I agree with a
. “When you play 35-40 games a year, you have 5 games that you play better than you are and 5 games that you stink. The rest is who you are.”
-
Elmarko had the best +/- at 18 tonight.
-
HD. 25 and 13
-
@kjayhawks I hope weve played at least 3 of the bad ones
-
Juan and KJ were both issues tonight.
KJ is still a good center but he isn’t a good wing. Can’t handle or shoot so Hunter has less room to operate. The spacing is terrible which is a large part of the turnover issue.
-
@cragarhawk maybe 2
-
Timberlake’s deep funk is making him nearly unplayable. I’d rather see more ‘Mari at this point.
-
Apparently it just wasn’t a good night to be a B12 basketball school. KSUCK needed ot to beat ORU and Cincinnati barely escaped Howard.
-
Not one good thing about this game, very un-inspiring. - -Juan was warm dog doo , just bad ball. outrebounded,-- If we don’t start hitting some outside shots we are in BIG trouble. — for the most part I’d say 80 % of the game if w didn’t make a lay up we had nothing.–We play even close to this Friday we just might get run out of the gym. Plain and simple.
-
@dylans he tied a his career high here with 5 points!!! I honestly don’t care about his shooting as much as defense and the little things. But my gosh that is a terrible basketball player, sorry to say but truthful imo. Especially when you figure he’s played at the D1 level for this long, arguably the biggest recruit miss of the Self era.
-
We didn’t try hard. We have talent. Can we beat UConn, sure. Will we, who knows! Hunter is a great offensive player but he’s a really poor slow defender. We have 4 good players. But Hunter doesn’t really match the other 3. Adams, Kevin, Harris all would be better in a more in your face defensive squad that can run the floor. Hunter needs a slow pace, half court offense, with 3 point shooters. Part of the style of the main 4 doesn’t gel perfect. Ultimately the problem is the 5 th starter and bench. It’s bad, and self really missed. Elmarko has been pretty disappointing for his hype. Other transfers are not great. He took a stupid gamble on the Texas kid that got kicked off the team. And Marcus Adam’s recruitment was a mistake as well. For ku prestige and bill selfs resume it’s shocking he couldn’t land better transfers outside of hunter
