@Crimsonorblue22 Cam? no.
-
Come on Braun, gotta make those open threes
-
@BShark has he been in 2 nd half?
-
Like that!
-
Bobby looks better than JY so far
-
This is a great game to get a look at other guys like Zach.
-
Clemence is kinda soft. Which makes sense now
-
@FarmerJayhawk we knew this tbh
-
@Crimsonorblue22 i heard dave Stewart say he was wonky on a play at end of half
-
Shoe
-
We don’t have a dominant big man on D. Only soft spot
-
@BShark I don’t think he finished his college career here, but a lot can change. Just seems so slow and not a great fit. Bill won’t care if he shoots 60% from 3 if he can’t play D. Saw that with BG

Agree, it is a concern. More athletic bigs coming in too.
-
I wanted to see more of cam
-
CUFFE!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 he looked like he was checking in
-
Cuffe in
-
KJ Adams is 5-10 from the waist down and 7-0 from the waist up
-
Stony Brook could be a trip up game
-
Last 7 minutes have kinda sucked but then the line-ups have been bizarre so idk

This is why I’ve been projecting Clemence to end up being a stretch 4 long term. His game doesn’t suit playing in the low post as he’s a guy who works better face up away from the basket. Having Udeh coming in will allow Clemence to be a 4 long term under Self.
-
Zach you aren’t blocking that shot bro. Stay on the ground
-
Great to hear the chant again !
-
First chant of many more to come!
-
The sloppy finish is what happens when 4 true freshman and a walk on are on the floor together.
-
Sloppy chant. We need to tighten this up, people.
-
The +/- are about what you would expect from watching the game.

@BShark said in ESU Game Thread:
As much as Remy isn’t exactly a Bill Self PG…Bobby might be the definition lol.
Bobby looked ok- solid think he will see some time
-
Like I said earlier , Really Deep play really aggressive should be no reason for foul trouble
-
Just think on top of tonight- we still - -Have Jalen & Hands going to be around here before long too. - - - -DEEP
-
Lol at Remy only playing 18 minutes.
-
@RockChalkinTexas that’s the best news! Really happy for you!
️
-
Kinda disappointed with cam.
-
Remy and Harris, plus och, cb and BD look pretty salty. Jalen?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Bill would do well to looks to run plays to get Cam looks from three if he is going to play him but it goes against his nature…
-
@BShark so we got Mitch for a 5 back up?
-

I was happy with Remy, Harris, Dave, Ochai, CB, Bobby. Yesufu was solid despite missing shots. KJ better than I thought based on things I was hearing. Everyone else underwhelmed for various reasons but I can’t imagine we see Zach or Cuffe get real game action this year so they are not a concern. If Bobby is this steady against D1 comp I want him getting minutes this year and I am very much buying what I’ve heard about him being the future of the program.
Our core guys (the first 5 I listed) played well. JWill is a core guy when back. Good 6 man core there.

I still think it should be Cam, but it’s a bad scene for sure. Need JWill back, one of our best 6 players easily and has good size.
-
Obviously KU wins this game by over 50 with real rotations but I’m glad Self experimented. If not tonight then when.
-
@BShark What about Coleman-Lands?
-
@COHawk injured so he did not play
-
Will he be part of the rotation?
-
Emporia St. is a bad team. They were picked 9th out of 14 teams in the MIAA this year. Self also did a ton of experimenting tonight with line up combinations that we’ll likely never see against a Michigan St., Alabama, Kentucky, Texas, or any other good team.
Cam Martin was a D2 player for a reason, even though he was a very good D2 player and that’s his lack of athleticism. I know that there was some early talk about him and Dave playing together, but there’s no way that should ever happen in a meaningful situation.
I think the back up 5 spot may end up being situational between Cam and Mitch.
-
@COHawk said in ESU Game Thread:

He should be because he’ll mostly be backing up Braun and Agbaji.
-
I like our guards this year
-
This team needs McCormack to play as many minutes as he can a night. No doubt he’s going to have to find a way to stay on the court

Pretty much figured this, but last night definitely confirmed it.
