Utah Utes vs the Kansas Kans 2/7 1:30 CT
-
@crimsonblu22 Doke was a great defender and lane protector but didn't have the same shot-blocking timing that Withey did. I stand by my guess that it was Withey
-
Arizona's big guy will be a fun match against our guys. He's not very quick or athletic, but big. They're playing now.
-
@Jayhawk_69 withey set records, right?
-
Flush this game down the drain. On to Arizona
-
@crimsonblu22 I think he set a record for most shots blocked in one NCAA tournament. He is probably high in KU school history in most shots blocked in a game/season/career, though those record books would be different had blocks been tracked in Wilt's era.
-
Well got to say is- - --- sure glad we got this game out of the way -- - - -hopefully got is out of our system.
Ugly , Ugly ball game ---played very uninspired. Going to have to play a MUCH MUCH better game Monday to have any kind of chance/Well we won anyways-- We got that.-hoping for a better Monday

I looked it up in the KU media guide. Withy holds school records for most career blocks, the top two seasons with most total block and most blocks per game (set the record in both as a junior and beat his own records as a senior), and has six of the top seven single game block totals, including numbers 1 and 2. He also set the record for most shots blocked in one ncaa tournament in 2012. Helluva shot blocker. BUT, I was wrong that he was the last Jayhawk (prior to Flory) with 7 in a game. That honor, as @crimsonblu22 correctly suggested, belongs to Doke, who blocked 7 shots against Baylor on January 11th, 2020.

Utah shot 40% from the field without Flory they shoot 52.7%. We shot 50% without Flory we shoot 43.75%
-
@Jayhawk_69 that was the game we won? Was such a great game! Self was fantastic!
-
@crimsonblu22 if we are at the same game at some point we gotta say hi
-
No second half bench points. Problem?
-
@stoptheflop only played six guys until garbage time. No marko hurt

Yes good to see one of my bucket buddies in person.

For the record, I walk on the treadmill 30 minutes a day every day except Sunday. I take nowhere near as many steps in a week's time as Utah's #2 took today. He is a traveling man.
-
@crimsonblu22 Withey had 12 in a game
-
My thoughts on the game defense was solid most the day, we let up too many easy back door cuts for dunks. Which is primarily due to the switching. I think we had a ton of great looks from distance just missed them 3/18. My honest opinion of DP today was he was on the floor but not engaged in the game much. He was much better in the second half but he literally just stood there much of the first half. @nuleafjhawk the whole crowd was chanting travel half the game it was ridiculous how many they got away with. #0 about had 15,000 plus people waiting for him out in the parking lot after a very dirty play that has no business being in the sport. Tre may have had the quietest 16 in history But Flory was the show this afternoon no question. Always a good time in AFH

Flory Bidunga Highlights vs. Utah (17 Pts, 10 Rebs, 7 Blks)
-
@Jayhawk_69 what I liked best about Withey blocks was they usually weren't just slapped away in any direction but often towards one of our guys (or himself). Such a joy to watch him
-
Classic look ahead game. Onto a massive one Monday. We have a chance to establish ourselves as a title contender.
