10am Start, Thurs WISCONSIN
-
I am grateful for Gradey Dick, don’t even want to think about this team without him.
-
@BShark Guess what?!? He’s not just a shooter. Lol. I lost track of how many times the talking heads said that yesterday.
-
@dylans about as many times as Bilas said Scheyer was “born for this” or w/e the line was.
-
@BShark I need another emotion other than just upvote for this. Lol
-
As far as the bigs it’s really impossible to say this year. Someone might develop in time, they might not. Overall I’m very confident in Zuby being good eventually. Right now he feels like the guy that doesn’t get enough minutes. He’s better defensively than Udeh but worse and lost offensively. Udeh is a bit lost on that end too but has had more flashes. Zach before he got hurt was just an abyss on offense.
Get McCullar at his usual production, get a little bit out of Rice (Joe is not a P5 player, Rice might be) and we should finish 2nd in the Big 12. Bob is a good bench player. KJ is a good bench player too but he is forced to start so it’s hard to see us finishing ahead of Texas.
-
Ku 65 Wisconsin 59.
-
@Jethro I’d be frustrated during the game but I’d take it!

I felt the same way last year about this time. I had concluded there was no way Och, Braun and the gang were ever going to get past the S16. Then the magic happened. With this team, I’m not convinced there will be magic. Great individuals with JW, Juando, and the Gradey revelation, but I’m not seeing the donut hole in the middle as anything but a weakness. Still, our floor is the highest in basketball, period. A bad year for us is 25 wins and a S16.
-
@Jethro Yeah my guess was 8 regular season losses before the year and watching the team has reinforced that for me. Duke is one I thought was a loss. 12-6 in the Big 12 is about where I think this team is.
-
Which Gradey will we see today? The first half, can’t miss Gradey or the second half where the hell is Gradey. Loved his first half shooting.
-
We are going to have to get some production from the bench. Starters all played mid-30s minutes yesterday. That isn’t sustainable over 3 games in 3 days or over the season.
-
We just cannot finish around the rim. Don’t go up strong and don’t have good touch…
-
good grief, missing open threes
-
Wow McCullar is a brick layer
-
@DanR Kevin 0-4…
-
I do not like early games. KU never plays well.
-
1-8 so far and the 7 misses haven’t been close to going in…
-
KU shooting 12%; McCullar 0/5. Come on now.
-
The selfishness and bball iq of this team is atrocious today
Dick was just on fire last game and do they look to find him? Heck no - McCullar jacking it like he’s at the nba combine
Pass the effin ball you can’t shoot
-
@stoptheflop gotta pass him the ball
He’s playing d and rebounding his teammates think it’s the Jalen and Kevin are high school buddies and think it’s their show
-
Zack sighting…
-
Zach Clemence sighting
-
Zach. Didn’t see that coming
-
Jinx
-
Wisconsin getting very good looks; KU not so much…
-
shooting under 10 percent and only down three!
-
Harris, Pettiford, and Yesufu in together. That is a small line up.
-
Why is Wilson shooting the technical?
-
Why was that not a shooting foul???
-
Joe has been awful so far this season…
-
14% shooting and tied…
-
Clemence battling well
-
Please no alley oop attempts today
-
@DCHawker he is brutal same with Kevin
Mj PLEASE
-
What the hell is this line up?
-
I’m not ready to give Wisky that much credit for the shit shooting. McCullar has been wide open on all of his clankers
-
Well I think they are starting to play better. Shots will fall, law of averages
-
This game is about unwatchable.
-
if we were shooting a dismal 25% we’d be up by 10
-
what an ugly , ugly game playing right into Wisc hands - that’s the way they play every time UGLY
-
@DanR he has zero feel for the game offensively
Defensively he’s great but 4 years and he’s been awful this year
Clemence made a post move! He needs more minutes especially if he could hit the top of the key three or lock and pops
-
@jayballer67 it’s because the wrong guys are shooting the ball for us. If we switched Gradey’s shots with Kevin’s we’d be up
-
Wisc -Dayton yesterday was an offensive showcase compared to this…
-
way to pass that ball Pettiford!
-
no one misses the rest of the half for both teams
-
Grady aint dickin around.

There’s a reason they left him open though. Wisconsin’s defense is legit. Seems like they’re similar to Iowa in football this year. Bad offense, but elite defense that will give them a chance to win most games this year.

This game’s on a pretty scoring similar pace.
-
yikes, those freebies were not even close, KJ
-
We need as many 3 - 0 runs as we can get!
