Pumped for this Texas UNC game. Real test for both teams.
Baylor Illinois, Gonzaga WVU. Tonight is LIT.

Texas is dumping on UNC. Is this finally Shaka’s year?

I don’t think so. UNC looks a year away. Their frontline is terrific but they’re too reliant on freshmen guards to be really good. And they can’t shoot.
-
Here is a news flash guys - - I think this Texas team might be legit
-
Walton going nuts about the soft foul calls against Texas. “I’ve not seen a travesty of justice like this in my lifetime”.
-
UNC has gotten a pretty nice whistle to be fair. Walton is being a little overdramatic though.
-
UNC really lost the game at the free-throw line. 18-32.
-
I think this West Virginia game & Gonzaga could get ugly for West Virginia. - -I just down think they have the ponies to stay with them - -Gonzaga just pretty dam good - -shoots well. West Virginia like always can go into long dry spells inconsistent on their shooting. We shall see
-
I’m gonna call it now. WV will beat Gonzaga. Gonzaga is good, but they’re not way in front of the pack as everyone thinks. WV has real bigs. And we just sucked.

Oh be careful buddy - I just don’t see it - West Virginia still has lots of problems shooting the ball- has big droughts, & they have NO ONE that can stay with Suggs
-
@jayballer67 yeah Suggs is having his way so far.
-
McBride is a shot maker for West Virginia.
So far WVU playing well and keeping zaga out of transition

Umar ballo is a gigantor

Gonzaga isn’t a good defensive team. I knew that before and after they beat us…
Right now WVU controlling tempo

If Harris plays do we win that game? Maybe…

Boy i’d be tempted to say we could have.
Its really crazy he played so little in that one
-
That’s a nothing play. Blood or not its a basketball play
-
When Gonzaga struggles scoring on these rims, same gym KU played in I have to think the poor shooting numbers were due to this gym
-
West Virginia being typical West Virginia now - -to much standing around/stale one on one/forced sloppy handling to’s
-
Rut Roh. Jalen Suggs down with an apparent ankle injury. Doesn’t look good
-
missed it. - - Is that Suggs down ? - -what happened

that would be a big blow for then
-
With Suggs out , that changes the hole complexity of the game. - -EVERYTHING changes
-
well KU has seen this before with WV – beat the to death on the boards with those two

@jayballer67 premature thought and I ain’t a doctor…but it looked like a blown achilles. I didn’t see the calf muscle move up as is typical…but he’s a tough kid and seeing him cry on the floor was pretty heart wrenching. I concede I root for kids to miss shots, rebounds, defensive assignment, etc. but seeing a kid hurt…never good.

I’m no doctor either lol. If he blew his achilles would he be able to put any weight /pressure on that foot? - showed him walking a little back and forth in the tunnel - not very good but some.
The achilles is the one in the back isn’t it ? major - - I thought maybe with him being able to put some even a little that it was maybe just a major twisted - but I sure don’t know. - -If he tore that then wow

Iowa St is an embarrassment to the conference.

they lose I’m taking it ?

They were down by like 15 to South Dakota St. It’s a 7-point game now, but only about 5 minutes left in the game.
-
Mercy Suggs coming back in - -still limping pretty bad
-
@jayballer67 Kobe shot free throws and walked to and from the bench when he ruptured his. Kobe was a crazy physical monster and Durant’s injury didn’t look like anything…so its possible.

-
@jayballer67 that’s good! wish I could watch it…had to take care of some stuff when the half ended.

Culver fell apart and the refs didn’t help.

Bring on the robot refs

@BShark 86% FG shooting. Got to be a near record. Classic early season matchup that shouldn’t count in records just as our games with FT Hayes, Emporia and Washburn don’t. Greenville is an NAIA school I think near St. Louis in Illinois.
-
Since I grew up in Illinois and have been following the Illini since 79 when they upset Magic and eventual NC, I’ll comment on this game with a certain tilt, although I’m not an avid Illini fan. This is the problem with moving all over the country like I have. I latch onto the locals.

I tried to recruit Adam Miller to come to KU. I worked with his mom two years ago, met him once or twice. Mom told me he was interested in KU and U of I. I told him if he ever wanted to talk about KU let me know. Never asked!
I saw him play his last HS game against Chicago power Simeon (Derrick Rose, Jabari Parker, etc.) Morgan Park was a heavy favorite but Simeon sent some little guy out to guard Miller from the start. Super quick and he just face guarded him. Adam couldn’t handle it and picked up two fouls in the first minute, then went back in in the 2nd quarter and picked up his 3rd right away. It was a brilliant coaching strategy that I’ve never seen.
