For those of you who like a sure thing…bet everything you own that every time we play a game, someone will have a career game against us.

Refs

We can do this

@wissox How is the atmosphere in person? It sounded very loud the first 5 minutes! The rest seemed more normal engaged/loud. Seemed like a good crowd from my couch.
-
Way to go #Jayhawks

LOL , my pacemaker was shorten out I think
-
Somebody has JUST GOT TO tell Juan we need him more offensive minded , we see when he is how big it can be
-
@jayballer67 he picked his right spots
-
3 seniors, Juan, HD and Kevin doing what seniors are supposed to do. Love it!
-
@kjayhawks they need to start sooner!
-
Headed into house to make Hershey’s Kisses peanut butter cookies. Watched out in my she shed so I could scream!
Have a great rest of the day!
69% shooting the last 15 minutes! That’s what we needed
️
-
The shooting kept creeping up and we didn’t have a TO for most of the second half.

This is where experience paid off in the end, they was talking about that in the Radio broadcast earlier wondering if experience would pay off
-
Quick note, Mari needs more PT, hit a big shot, had a couple of good defensive stops and rebounds in that second half.
-
McDowell huge again in a big game! Very excited to see him get like no minutes next game

He has GOT to get more time. Hit huge three, got key rebound quality D
-
@jayballer67 For sure! He has been stepping up in big moments this year, even though he’s not been given consistent minutes. He deserves the playing time and the ability to grow. He’s got huge upside
-
@RockChalkinTexas love those, my sister makes those for Christmas! Yummy!
-
Now can enjoy rest of day. - - -Baylor/Michigan St coming up. — NC /Uk coming up
-
good lord Baylor
-
Rock chalk!
-
Hunter said in post game that even if he saved a baby they’d still probably boo him! He’s a ham!
-
Jamari has a long way to go but that kid ain’t scurred.
-
These games are tough to watch — I don’t enjoy drifting behind opponents by double digits. But the comebacks are works of art and a sight to behold.
The only silver lining is that these experiences are super valuable later in the season and speak volumes for the heart of this team.
Masterful work down the stretch by both Coach and the seniors.
-
We need to convince Juan that a shot is really just a pass to the basket so that he shoots more.

For sure, w have to get another scorer - -we need him to look to be aggressive

Juan’s 12 pts seems about right to me. He’s certainly enough of a threat to score that defenses can’t just ignore him like Kentucky did. The bench only took 6 shots today, 6pts. If the bench and Jackson can’t contribute more on offense, then Juan may have to shoot more than the 9 shots he put up today

I saw that too. To be fair to the bench though they barely got any minutes today. I’d still like Juan to shoot a little more.
Hopefully the young guys can get more minutes against Yale and Wichita St

Was a great game to be at!!

@BigBad sorry we missed you but that was an awesome crowd.

@wissox did you rock the chalk or go incognito?
️ did u wave the 🫶? Or were u a 
? Lol. Were they nice to you?

Dang, I caught the first few minutes where we didn’t look so good, then had band practice all afternoon. wish I could have watched the comeback kids do their thing in the second half. But as usual… good guys win again!
-
@dylans @Crimsonorblue22 Wow, what a great experience! Even had we lost I would have said the same thing. The people were friendly, some good natured teasing. Some realistic fans like this is a surprise to us, you’ll probably come back.
We had seats about 4 rows from the top, strange arena with almost all the seats on the sidelines. Could see fairly well, but had to stand the whole game.
The crowd was really loud and engaged the whole time. Like really loud. Fun to experience.
After the game we were about to leave but I said I want to see in the gym once more and we noticed people hanging around and it looked like you could exit from ground court level so we went down there. CBS was still on air so I waved behind Spanarkle so I’m probably on the broadcast. (watching right now). And saw Hunter Dickinson so I said hi, told him I used to hate him when he was at Michigan because I’m also a Badger fan, but really glad he’s one of us now, because where would we be without him? Saw a few other players milling about. Then said hi to Greg Gurley, he was cool.
Went outside and there was a bus and Jayhawk people hanging around, this is about 45 minutes after the game. Talked to a few fans, then Brian Hanni came out with Gurley and me and my KU roomate whom I went with were able to chat with both of them for about 5 minutes. We didn’t know how long it would before the team would come out to the bus and had 3 hours back to Chicago so we got going.
They have horrible traffic management there and sat in a line 20 minutes making us wish we’d waited for the bus instead of sitting in miserable traffic.
Actual basketball observations. Kansas had 3 guys playing major minutes who’d played in a national championship basketball game. I think it showed in this game. They never panicked or got upset with the silly turnovers or missed bunnies.
There were a lot of strange calls both ways I thought. It almost seemed like the refs would make a call against one team that seemed strange and they’d make up for it by calling one the other way.
The bench just gave us 6 points and well that’s not enough. Kevin’s maturity showed as he got ticky tacked to foul trouble but played 38 minutes. I think he played the entire 2nd half, much of it with 4 fouls. Kevin also has shown a clutch knack knocking down 3’s in crunch time. He may be the only guy who can do that, although DaJuan is making 45% of his 3’s this year and hit some timely ones today.
Bill Self is the best and showed it today. Proud to have him as our coach.
-
Oh and Indiana fans boo a lot.
-
@RockChalkinTexas any chance of you shipping the treats out? Lol
-
@jayballer67 I wonder if Bill is aware of this?
-
@kjayhawks Santa would frown on that!
I posted a picture of the cookies on Twitter and @Crimsonorblue22 reposted it. It won’t allow me to post pictures on here @approxinfinity !!
Woke up and still couldn’t believe we won. I rewatched the last 11 minutes of the game this morning and I swear when Jamari came in at a little over 10:00 minutes the whole mindset of the team changed and his energy was a big factor. Hopefully he’s earned more playing time. His 3 was HUGE.
