Looking back at Hilton
-
AJ Storr plays the same defense as middle schoolers.
-
Weak call
-
Hunters lack of hustle is glaring today.
-
Can’t have five guys out there not knowing how to run the offense and expect to win at this point. Gross.
-
Bilas right - we have gotten beat to most of the loose balls…
-
@approxinfinity said in Looking forward to Hilton:
@Kcmatt7 AJ Storr, Hunter Dickinson and … Bill Self?
Honestly Juan. Juan is a crutch.
-
Iowa St just quicker to the loose balls
-
wild passes no plan
-
Storr must have a sky high usage rate. Black hole
-
Come on Hunter!
-

Over 30% last season.
-
@DanR said in Looking forward to Hilton:

That’s just how AJ Storr plays offense.
-
Iowa St going to end up parading to the line make this game score look worse yet then it was
-
Actually have more FGs and FG%, but huge difference at the FT line and getting beat on the boards…
-
that about wraps up how how this game went the entire night
-
Five guard lineup stinks
-
Dickinson should of just stayed home
-
@DanR said in Looking forward to Hilton:

Because 3 of those 5 are shit defenders.
3 of Harris, Moore, Adams, and Flory need to be on the floor for the defense to be its most effective.
-
Well, that was a rough one. We kept staying close and then kept doing stupid stuff.
-
This team just is mid af. Talent is there. This is a Bill Self problem
-
Give the clowns some credit. They usually fold. Unfortunately, this KU team has no beast mode.
-
I told you guys. Leave ISU guards a little space on the perimeter and its an automatic 3.
This game was lost on 50/50 balls. Hopefully a lesson for the squad. On to the next one.
-
KU’S collective would like a refund on the Storr fee
-
Not an eighteen point losss just gave a total ho hum in the end for sure
-
Game got away from KU late, definitely some give up vibes.
-
This was the first game I have honest feelings about wanting to move on from Self.
Its scary, and hard to replace a coach like Self.
But it might be time if we are an early out this tourney on his account.
Talent is there.
-
One alpha dog on the team, and Bill won’t let the team ride on his shoulders
-
I am going to predict - - -Hoston beats Iowa State
-
Bill has two of best scorers transfer in from the Big 10. Has a guy who scored 11 ppg from a FF team. A guy who dropped 22 ppg a year ago. The POY from Summit.
And we can’t fucking score.
This one on Bill
-
Congrats, ISU. Hope you can handle the heat!
-
@DanR who is that? Flory?
-
Elite defense. Offense is very much not elite. I don’t think the offense is going to get much better this year unfortunately.
-
When Self retires, who would you want to replace him?
-
-
@patoh3 I havent gotten that far yet.
-
Disappointing loss and there isn’t a lot of positives to take from it. You just have 3 Sr’s that are very limited offensive players. Mayo not being the focal pt and not realizing just how impactful Flory has been, kind of keeping the team from finding it’s ceiling which has shown itself a lot since December to be low
-
Can we hire an offensive coordinator?
-
@BeddieKU23 doesnt matter if he is stuck coordinating Hunt Harris and KJ
-
The team isn’t jelling. Storr is in desperation mode. Kinda sad to watch. I’m not sure this is Selfs fault. Hunter looks slow. Kj plays his heart out but can’t really score, and now this team is struggling. Mayo is a nice surprise.
I remember before the season, the consensus was that this team was going to suck on D. Actually their D is pretty damn good at times.
Would be hard to see this squad be a potential nat champion, but I’ve decided to chuck expectations and try to enjoy them as they are
-
i just dont remember in 2007-2008 ever thinking “man what the hell is Self doing playing x over y?”
Is this a common thing with people watching other teams? Do you think that about players on Wisconsin riding pine @wissox ?

Only thing I would say is they Bill has a very large purse to get “his” guys. NIL changes expectations, fair or not.

Storr isn’t in desperation mode, that’s always been his game. He has always been selfish with the ball and takes a bunch of bad shots and makes dumb passes.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 Didn’t know that… that explains his selfish play
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 AJ moves his head completely to see ball and man instead of getting in position to see ball and man at same time. I know you coach jr hi boys and I watch jr hi gals. Been awhile since I coached that age. You’re right.
-
I’m still in the tweaks not overhaul mode. A couple minutes here, a couple there and all the sudden things look a lot better. As much as I hate to say it because I adore KJ, but if he’s out for a bit we might see some guys step up.
-
The defense wasn’t terrible, you won’t beat them while they are shooting 62% from 3 in Hilton. We just had zero answers on offense a combined 10 points for Hunt and KJ won’t win us many games. Silly turnovers and missed FTs at key moments by our 5th year senior PG was definitely disappointing.
-
Hunter was soft as baby shit tonight. There’s no reason why he shouldn’t make multiple trips to the FT line every game, but zero tonight.
Other than the FT line, Dejuan wasn’t bad tonight and I don’t put a ton of blame on him for tonight. And this doesn’t mean that he was perfect, but he doesn’t get the majority of the blame tonight the way Hunter does.

Game was closer than the final score for sure. It was tight with 6 minutes left and got away. I hope we are done with AJ after this showing and the Diggy minutes baffle me.
-
@dylans Bill has to put him on the dang floor for that to happen

AJ had a 32% usage rate at Wisconsin last season. He is the Temu version of James Harden
