@Tallturd1 said in Darryn Peterson:
just media types doing what they think makes themselves sound knowledgeable
Just like people on this Board all season thinking they can infer facts from the lack of information. I read the CBS guy's article. He has never before seen a discussion between an AD and an agent in a game so therefore it must be...X. Could be any other letter in the alphaber, but no, X is a big conspiracy so it must be true.

@mayjay kinda runs right along the lines of people who say My ,My My goodness that just can't be true huh ?

@ROCKCHALK2025 As a judge for 19 years, I found the legal principal of requiring evidence to draw conclusions applies pretty well to analyzing everything in life. In other words, speculation alone isn't probative. But speculation can generate theories about things, but theories without evidence are pretty hollow, so best usually to wait for actual facts.

@mayjay as a lawyer for many years, I concur. The stories about the assistant AD and DP’s “advisors”, assuming they are accurate and thus evidence, allow for different interpretations. In this case, we (I include myself) tend to prefer an interpretation that supports our gut feeling that something is off. This is a form of confirmation bias, even if we turn out to be correct. I am really looking forward to finding out exactly what’s going on. I expect it may not be until after the season, if ever.
BTW, my favorite DP moment so far was after the TTech game during the presser. DP called Flory out for being too modest and said Flory was the best defender in the league/nation. That was a sweet moment between the two of them and raised my opinion of DP as a player and a leader.

That's great but thing is chances are we probably won't ever find out the true facts, it will always depend on which parties you talk to or the parties giving their side.- -Back-- & forth ---Back & forth.
However does seems weird , I mean why would a party a father and his family who was going to watch this game and their seats were directly behind the players , why would he say such a things- -what does he have to gain by saying this ? what would be in it for him ?-- All he is doing is taking family to see the game wanting to see Peterson and A J -- doesn't make any sense for him just to yank this out of thin air it's not like he is profiting any money to say what he saw.
With the way things are now days with College Athletics and players anything is possible. These dam Agents are looking out for their investment so I can very strongly believe that this agent could easily be in total control of this whole thing making all decisions .

May be an unpopular take, but DP is good enough that he can call the shots on how much he plays and think Self should continue to let him as long as there is an understanding he will be fully available/play through pain a bit more come the tournament. The team seems to have adapted well to him being in and out of the lineup so I don't even mind it too much anymore.

Yeah, I don't mind too much now either. But I imagine that if he was limited and we lost some games, I'd probably be less agreeable.

Darryn Peterson is just one of four Kansas Freshmen to average 15.0+ PPG in school history:
Ben McLemore - 15.9
Josh Jackson - 16.3
Andrew Wiggins - 17.1
DARRYN PETERSON - 21.1 That's pretty impressive considering he hasn't played the same amount of time!
