@SlimShaddy54 bryce thompson when he was kansas had a pretty janky shot, wasnt really a great scorer. Seems like he is a decent role player, but having a weird form that doesn’t go in puts a ceiling on things.
Probably for the best he left because he’s still a very limited offensive player. His best PER rating for a season was this year and it’s 14.2 which is below average. As much people crap on Dejuan and KJ here, they’re both better overall offensive players than Bryce. He’s AJ Storr levels of inefficient on offense. He is a good defender though and would’ve been a nice defensive stopper on a good team though.

@Texas-Hawk-10 ya, just seems crazy that’s the only one. Sure looks like there would be all kinds of room for them to have an adjusted time slot. No other mid major or low on ESPN either , just Gonzaga- -just seems weird
-
I think i saw where Torvik has KU a top 10ish team in their last 5 with improved offense stats. Perhaps a glimmer of hope or grasping at straws.
Had Houston and Tech in 1 possession games late and didn’t finish. That’s who they have been. You always hope some kind of improvement can be made after several lessons along the way. If the group comes together and plays for the Jersey on the front, anything is possible.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 I was thinking I’d prob take him over Storr but that’s about it

Tonight is giving a spotlight to the low major conference tournament games including several conference championship games. Those are more exciting games than watching a bunch a crappy major conference teams in an opening round game.

Go Figure Gonzaga beats St Marys I think it was 58-- - 51

I really wanted Utah again after what happened there, it’s hard to beat a team 3 times tho we know we are better.
-
UCF is a gifted offensive team and gave us everything we could handle in Allen, we were short-handed that day but still. They are going to have to shoot the ball well tonight to win. Doing that away from home has been a problem…
-
@BeddieKU23 hoping Zeke can exercise the shooting demon outside of Allen
-
Yeah he is crucial tonight
-
@kjayhawks Exorcise his demons? Exercise the demon? Are you calling Zeke’s shooting power the demon? Asking for an english major nerd friend.
-
Calling it now, The Good Guys 76-- -UCF-- -65, we are playing better, even in our last two losses played better

Whatever he needs to exercise I’m good with lol
-
Zeke showed up but ran out of gas. We really need one more scorer.

If one of Storr or Rylan would show up each game it would have helped all year.
-
In retrospect I think we should have started AJ @Texas-Hawk-10. I am assuming we wont shake that up for the tournament either. All of the churn took its toll and i think Self is done shuffling.
-
For those wondering: Zeke has played in the NCAAs a few times now i think.
Hoping that means he’ll be at least somewhat comfortable and be home field Zeke.

Hoping he channels that energy
-
I would think if you totaled the number of NCAA Tournament games played by players on every team, KU would have to be near the top if not the top.
-
I just want to avoid a first round (cough, cough, Bradley) loss.
-
We could pretty much wreck our bracket if we come ready to play. I’m most worried about St. John’s but not overlooking Arkansas.
For sure… we need one of those guys to show up every game.
I’ll go even further… We need 2 out of 3 showing up… AJ, Rylan, Diggy.
-
Ugg I could not finish a bracket; just can’t convince myself that KU will win more than 2 games tops. (And I’m a major homer, I know!) I never watch once KU is done. So the bracket remains 1/8 filled out.
-
@dylans Glass half full - KU loses the first game - BUT - we win the Big 12 in football.
-
@nuleafjhawk Dude why set yourself up for that level of disappointment? How about KU football finishes above .500 and gets a toilet bowl invite?!?
-
@dylans I’ve set myself up for disappointment the last 2 years of KU Basketball. I’m aiming for the stars in football, baby!
-
Don’t forget about KU Baseball!
