-

MJ!!
The good and the bad tonight.
I’ll take this off the bench every game lol

Cuffe is uh… I am surprised he survived last offseason.
-
@BeddieKU23 his PER is so high that might be rude at this point. He’s our best player.

Oh 100% don’t get me wrong. Can see why he is Bill’s dog house however.

-
@BShark honestly I had assumed reports that he isn’t good at basketball were overblown. They, they were not
-
Great game tonight. Dominated the first half with real line-ups. Got to get guys time and experiment in the second half.
-
@wissox oh the jokes Briscoe would make

I was at that game when jamiri dunked on UT!️
I don’t know if you already have tickets for tge game in March, but looks like UT has already sold out Moody Center for the season. Looks like I’m gonna have to hope resale tickets go down because I’m probably not going to spend $200 per ticket to go to that game even though it’s likely the only regular season I’ll be able to make.
-
See. He’s too good.

Should Jank take Juan’s minutes?

KU was favored by 24.5. Bettors that backed us got hosed on that last 3 by the Bison.

Hawks win… Nuff said.

Ouch.

After the lady left who always sent me posters etc in the past, I wrote Joanie Stephens HCBS’s assistant) and the new posters (3) came today they are so big and wide they don’t fit on my closet door.
-
Not a good week to be a Summit League team. Creighton clobbering North Dakota by 31 at the half.
And UMKC lost to D-II Lincoln the other night.
-
Okay, playtime is over, Hawks. Got to step it up next week.
-
@Jethro #neverbet

@Texas-Hawk-10 Same here. They had close to 11,000 for first game vs UTEP. I have no desire to go to Austin anymore.

agree , tonight’s floor time will be useful later on in the year
-
Jmo but I think we end up playing 9 guys by Jan/Feb and my guess is Juan/Gradey/Kev/JWill/Udeh/Bob/KJ/MJ/Joe. Joe kind of a Remy lite situation where you see if he is on that night and go from there.
-
@wissox said in Fargo Game Thread:
Someone comes to KUBuckets for the first time tonight and thinks “man, wissox is a bit unstable”
We already know that!
-
The Bob/Udeh combo is already very fun honestly. Could be devastating in a year or two if Bob develops a trey.

@BShark said in Fargo Game Thread:
Zuby has energy
@BShark said in Fargo Game Thread:
Zuby has energy
I like Zuby - -I’m a Zuby guy , but also realistic - -I can see if Udeh progresses - he gonna be just fine for us - -active guy
-
@nwhawkfan what’s class a?
-
-
Minutes were even wonkier than I thought after checking the box score.
-
Adams with 2 rebounds in 17 minutes is meh
Pettiford with 8 assists in 19 minutes is great. I really hope he develops a 3-ball
-
Zuby had 7 boards in 7 minutes. Nice rate.
-
now guys this is all in fun just tongue in cheek so here it is : - -Ku has lead in thee two game in minutes 76:09 seconds - -compared to the opposition - -0.27 seconds lmao
-
Our FT shooting is abysmal. 50% tonight, 53% the other night. Small sample size and I know we won’t shoot 50% for the year but it’s a little bit concerning after having 4 good FT shooters move on.
-
A few late night, post game thoughts:
Jalen’s stroke looked extremely good in the first half. Pure, with great form. That form broke down in the second half. Exciting to see that pure form is there. Hoping he sees the tape and realizes it’s important to maintain.
Jalen is a huge key to us winning. Duh.
Gradey, for three! He contributed in many ways tonight. Some defensive flaws, but he’s young, learning.
I am not smart enough to see how McCullar has such a great defensive reputation. other than basic things like shooting and rebounding, it’s hard for me to see. Easier to see guards at the top of the key and big guys play good D.
Udeh is fun. Seems like the life of the party!
I like KJ. But KJ can’t shoot. KJ can’t rebound. What does he do well? what does he do well to start and stay on the floor?
MJ Rice just got a new fan! There will be some growing pains with his youthful exuberance, but OK. Dude looks like a baller. I see him being very important by year’s end.
We played some crazy ass lineups tonight. I assume it was Norm looking to see who would step up and be a reliable scorer for the second unit.
Easy breezy win.

Oh, and Wissox was hitting the bottle tonight!
