Is Atticus Richmond or Grant Mordini better?

@stoptheflop And he dropped a sure TD in the end zone today. Bean has been traded to the end of the bench in DC behind last year's championship QB and MVP.

Thankful!

Today's photo is a varigated form of the Helianthus annuus "Ring of Fire" (Common Sunflower). It's a striking sunflower variety, with large flowers, 5 inches across, boasting a unique pattern of fiery red and gold petals surrounding a dark center. Ideal for adding bold contrast to gardens, it reaches maturity in about 70-80 days and is a magnet for pollinators. They grow in a raised bed in the corner of my garden.

@ROCKCHALK2025 you been on vacation?

@approxinfinity As usual, you have the stats! And, they are dramatic,

@FarmerJayhawk I don't know how much I even believe that number. We just landed another recruit today and it didn't seem like we still had NIL available if it was only $14 mil.

He hasn’t won a Championship, but he’s won an mvp and just won a series against the hated (by Philly) Celtics. They’ve built a good team around him. Now his body has to hold up. Which I doubt it will, but we’ll see. I watched a good part of the 3-3, next game decides series game against the Celtics. I figured they ought to be playing hard to win that one. I wasn’t disappointed. Great game. And Embiid played well.

@patoh3 said in KState Game: I hope they can bear him. He was Scott Drew's version of Kurtis Townsend until he took the KSU job.

It will be good to hear about draft of other teams from their fans

Adjust KU's record last year tbh

@Jayhawk_69 Kind of like a homeless version but it's the best comparison I could think of because it's all spot ups, transition and cuts. Eventually in later seasons he developed a little to do some stuff on ball but largely his production was crafted/gassed up by Bill. Kohl took the opposite arc where he started early then got sent to the shadow realm however. I'm not trying to disparage him though, it was just meant to dispel the CB comparison as they played differently. This got me curious enough to just now look at KU comps only via Torvik. And well, knock me over with a feather [image: kohl.png] I hope he is a productive bench piece though, truly.

@approxinfinity

Royals are one of the worst hitting teams, cannot score runs. They are once again wasting solid starting pitching.

Actually tied for 33rd, won $121,000.

I've watched it. It's well done. I think CBS/Paramount picked these programs to follow based on their likelihood of making a deep run in march. WRT KU, not a whole lot was new for me, but it was interesting to see some behind the scenes. The documentary picked a player from each program to shadow and that was Darren P for KU and Yaxle L for Michigan. I felt there was striking contrast between these two players-- Yaxel allowed a great deal of transparency and access to his family, while Darren seemed guarded and less personable, with no reference to his family. There was also some interesting parallels / differences between Self and May. Worth a watch. Last episode drops April 18. Will feature post-season, which should be a rollicking fun ride for Wolverine fans.

@JoJoAndMe absolutely. I’d have to go pencil it out but it probably would cost more to not do it than do it given the commitments of everyone involved.

Is Case is the one doing the portal scouting I hope and pray he leaves. I’ll give him some credit with Tre and Melvin. The problem is we don’t need a shooter, you need a minimum of two IMO. Tre was much improved in that department but really struggled going 2-15 in the post season.

@wissox83 What I personally find tiresome (this is not necessarily directed just at you) is the fact that this is supposed to be a forum for people to talk about sports (mostly) and talking about sports involves passion and opinions along with facts. I say what I feel, what I observe. I take off the Crimson and Blue glasses and I don't drink the Crimson and Blue kool-aid. Kansas is a program on the decline. That's not my opinion, that's a fact. Kansas men's basketball had not lost 11 games in a season since 1989! The past three years we've lost 11, 13 and 11. We have been bounced from the NCAA Tournament after the first or second games (against generally far inferior opponents) multiple timnes. That's right off the kuathletics.com website. Facts. Not opinions. So people can say I'm naysayer. Say that I'm negative. Say whatever they want to say. Have me banned. Chances are I'm just telling the truth and nobody wants to hear it.

@FarmerJayhawk haha nice! Well done! Gonna have to pay more attention to Dusty May.
