    Bill BETTR FIND SOME GUYS THAT CAN SHOOT THE THREE DAMMIT

    Nick sucks, Morris is ?, and McCullar is on the bench.



  • DICKINSON cost us this game from the line. – SIX FOR FIFTHTEEN TOTAL BULLSHIT



  • 12 pt lead midway through the 2d half and going to lose by 10 at home…



  • Laughable Hunter



  • Woof



  • Dickinson let us down at the foul line tonight.

    BILL BETTE FIND SOME THREE POINT SHOOTERS



  • @jayballer67 No duh



  • @approxinfinity maybe have the guards drive to the guys that have 4 fouls and force them to blow the whistle?



  • now gonna have to play an additional day in the Big 12 tourney – just a pitiful showing



  • @dylans said in BYU Thread:

    @jayballer67 No duh

    Ya glad you see it too



  • Ban those announcers from coming back. It is their fault.



  • Ok wellp this is rock bottom right?



  • Can’t win games shooting like that from the line shades of 2003 vs Syracuse



  • It’s not the missed 3s that have been the biggest issue - it’s the poor % from 2 and in the paint. Well, and 12 missed FTs…



  • At least we didnt have the late late game and lose sleep for this



  • @approxinfinity said in BYU Thread:

    doesn’t matter , this team isn’t doing shit in the NCAA’S



  • @DCHawker KJs missed bunny’s late were killer. - it was a total team loss.



  • The Cougars have 47 pts in the 2d half…



  • See you for the next one



  • @dylans it was a group effort



  • I just hope we don’t get swept by KSU, they spanked this team Saturday



  • If Hunter doesn’t hit the top of the 3 key the offense is trash. Every defense goes under every screen set for a pg taking away passing lanes leading to zero threes and 4 turnovers

    Kj was bad offensively tonight

    Trash performance and now we have an extra game in big 12

    Glad we leveled up this year but then again you ain’t win crap when ur D2 pg can’t stay in front of his man and won’t shoot the 3

    Bill’s made this bed time to lay in it

    Called it in December…no remy bail outs



  • BYU gave up 93 pts to Okie State…We shot 40%…



  • Tough to win when you can’t make 3s or FTs



  • BYU just flipped the script. Will this be the moment that pushes KU into that top gear?!? Will this team win some road games now?



  • Adams, Furphy, and Timberlake went 10-34 from the field and 1-11 from 3. This was a team loss. Role players didn’t make anything, Dickinson couldn’t make a FT, and defense only showed up for a half.



  • @patoh3 - 3 of 15 at the 3 line contributed greatly, too.

    Get the hell out of here with that crap. - -We hear nothing out of you the entire night and he you come after like a rabid dog after a cat. you are so infatuated on Juan, buddy this was one hell of alot more then juan dam your crap gets old - -between Juan and your hardon for Remy is sickening. time after time , after time. give it a rest for GOD’S sakes man



  • 47-33 in the 2nd half…



  • 3 of 15 from the line… does Doke have any more eligibility? Pretty sure he would make more than that.



  • KU was extremely tired tonight. No life in the legs that I could see. No bench and BYU committed a lot of fouls to wear KU down. Sigh…



  • I just feel sick, this is one of the biggest let downs in KU basketball history preseason #1 to likely swept by KSU and gone first round in the NCAAs: why can’t we buy better players? Not one of these guy can hit 3s unguarded at 35% clip. What a joke folks



  • Can we stop paying those guys? They ain’t holding up there end of the deal. I’m okay at this point if not a soul on this team returns for next season outside furphy.



  • @approxinfinity 3 of 15 from the 3 point line.
    Hunt was 6 of 15 from the FT line. I don’t remember Doke’s numbers, but I do remember the Hack a Doke b/c of his poor FT shooting, but he made a point of improving upon it. Hunter normally hits more.



  • I am sad.



  • Anyone else seen the movie Blue Chips when coach Bell throws all their stuff in the middle of floor saying “You don’t deserve a locker room or uniforms, should be playing in your jock straps” all very true with this bunch and I’m hopeful Self is saying similar in our locker room tonight.



  • @kuballin10 Congrats! You get prognosticator of the year. Bet you’re proud!



  • Go easy on @kuballin10 he’s a 100 percent right regardless of how mad it makes others.



  • He’s an idiot

    no he is really not- - this team is a lot more horribe then just Juan - -and yet he has got it in for him – didn’t hear nothing then jumped o the chance when w lost always same song



  • @jayballer67 as @Texas-Hawk-10 said it was a team loss for sure. It’s just sad to see how bad this team is compared to what we thought we had. We all have to survive the down years I suppose. I’m just really worried KSU will mop the floor with us.



  • We are a pretty average team without Kevin. But also give BYU credit for shooting about 50% from 3 in the second half. Our 3-pt defense is not elite, but not many teams can shoot at that clip.

    Hard to beat a team when they are shooting like that unless you have similar fire power… (which we don’t, although hitting free throws would have made it a much closer game)



  • Jeebus, that was disappointing.

    Not fun things with the boxscore:

    BYU outscored KU in both points off turnovers and 2nd chance points

    BYU with a 29-9 bench scoring advantage

    BYU outscores KU 47-33 in the 2nd half / this is unbelievable

    And the obvious one: BYU with 13 3s, KU with 3



  • Couple thoughts on the loss:

    — I thought that was one of the worst first halves Dajuan has played. He looked high at times. Asleep. Disinterested. Disoriented.

    — There were times I thought we defended the 3 well tonight. Before the game I wondered how many times we’d leave a shooter wide open in the corner by covering a guy in the lane. Got worse as the game progressed. What sense does this defensive philosophy make??? Can somebody with more basketball smarts please explain?

    — I wish the post game with Gueldner was unfiltered and R rated. He’d drop F bombs all over the place! Ha.

    — O-fer-Furphy tonight. No bueno.

    — Timberlake made his usual one. Missed a crap ton. Looks like that fall hurt like hell. Despite his poor shooting night, he generally seemed like he was playing better lately.

    — Elmarko simply cannot dribble nor even initiate a simple offensive set. Chaos. People think he’s a PG. I don’t see it. He barely looks playable. We need to recruit a backup PG. (he seems a bit better with dribbling in the open court)

    — BYU fer crissakes. Wow.

    — ESPN+ — what a bad broadcast. It’s like they don’t even care about quality or production. Sounds we all had audio issues. How hard can that be to fix?



  • @bskeet That’s one of my issues with Selfs coaching, we go under screens on shooters so often. Just thinking about Acie Law hitting a 3 in AFH in 2007 to beat us because we went under the screen. Thats something that got hammered in my head in middle school. Last night we left the corner shooters repeatedly and even the gal commentator (don’t remember her name but she was okay) said you can’t be fully in lane off the corners against BYU. To me it’s just common basketball knowledge and we don’t show it. The fundamentals on this team are pure garbage, Juan had multiple turnovers leaving his feet with no where to pass. It’s just not high IQ plays by seasoned veterans. Seniors shouldn’t be making plays like that and should be able to make free throws at 75% or better.



  • It is what it is.

    This team isn’t going anywhere without Kev and the effort game to game this late in the season is so disappointing. Guys looked gassed after 3 days off and a week prior… BYU shoots the 3 and certainly didn’t guard them well. We continue to miss shots that should go down.

    This was a team loss but Hunter let his team down last night. You can’t miss 9 free throws



  • @BeddieKU23 I’m gonna ask a Honest question here, is this Bill Selfs worst coaching job? This team has 2 all-Americans likely, 3 draft hopefuls and a Cousy award finalist. In 2019 we had no talent and 2015 we had super young talent. I think this team may end up worse than those 2, tho on paper should beat those teams by 25 points.

    A lot of this stems from poor play and leadership from the PG position. Its obvious to me and I know its not a popular opinion here, if people step back and take off their Jayhawk tinted glasses its not hard to see. There are intangibles that aren’t measured in stats but show up on how well an offense runs or how energy/effort is contagious to the rest of the team. He is a senior! Come on, have we all lowered our expectations this far to think this is acceptable play from a multiple year starter, Senior PG at Kansas??



  • I’m an old timer. Back in the Danny Manning era, I used to tape every game (VHS even). I knew every player, every coach, every stat. I knew our records against all of our so called rivals - I was an obsessed KU basketball junkie. It actually was starting to interfere with my home life.

    My home life is fantastic now. I haven’t watched the last 6 or 7 games. Haven’t “taped” a game to watch in years. Actually, my TV does record KU football, basketball and the Chiefs, but I’ve only watched one KU b-ball game that I’ve recorded. Against OU a few weeks back.

    I guess I’ve gone from obsessed fanatic to fair weather fan. I like this a lot better. My blood pressure is where it should be most of the time and my wife and I enjoy doing things together or just watching a good movie or show.

    I’ll watch the March Madness until we get knocked out in the second round by Arkansas Pine Bluff or someone equally lame.
