Exhibition Game Tonight
-
Round 2 before real games begin next week.
Hopefully a different result tonight against an inferior opponent. Wishful thinking at least.
-
Looks like it’s time to restart ESPN plus.
Rock chalk!

Can’t be any worse then Kentucky playing Ottawa College from here in Ks - -Or Louisville losing to Kentucky Weslynn
-
Espn plus fun
-
Nothing like seeing Allen Fieldhouse again. Good for the soul
-
Wow the place looks half empty
-
Dickinson with 8 early. Other team doesn’t have anyone that can guard him so there’s that.
Adams has a 2 off high low.
Defense is still really poor but the other team isn’t good
-
@BeddieKU23 Hunter will dominate any team that doesn’t have a 6’10 or taller guy
-
Furphy in, 2 quick fouls. Love his size and they need him to acclimate.
Offense without Hunter in looks challenging. Elmarko with a nice assist to kev for a made 3.
-
Parker is uhhhh
-
Had a dunk lob in traffic but on the other end its scary
-
Joined late - watching the last 3 minutes has been painful. Offense is offensive. Bad entry passes and the only points are a couple of FTs (with KJ missing two of those). Against FHS…

Next 3 minutes better…
-
Extremely sloppy offense
-
A lot of combos
-
This team is going to struggle making perimeter shots…
-
I think scoring in general is going to be a big problem but perimeter shooting is certainly a major concern so far
-
Some good moments from freshman Jackson driving baseline for assists, Furphy active on d and has looked okay in his first game action. McDowell certainly has effort and seems like he can play some this year. Would like to see him show his perimeter shot.
-
Dickinson is way overhyped. He’s so slow and a bad defender. Johnny furphy also looks really unathletic, don’t see power 5 level from him.Timberlake looks like tyrell reed, which is fine but that’s the best self could Have got. Will be a good team but I don’t see top 5 from this team.
-
Well can’t say watching this is got me all warm and fuzzy. - -Hunter on defense is a real liability , like a sloth. - - -At this point we have no outside shooter - -ya Kevin a couple but 2-10. Like they were mention teams going make KU hit that outside shot.
Furphy made nice pass, but just not a lot to say- - YAY , I agree This team is going to have trouble at times scoring. - -Parker looking good - -Three fouls very nice. -I just don’t know right now.
Ya Hunt hit his 1st 4 shots but dam I would hope he has a 7 inch advantage a Fort Hays Starter their tallest player that ha played is 6’7
-
Here’s the real question , by years end will we be wishing we kept udeh and zuby instead of hunter. We could have used that nil money for the best 2 and 3 guard in the portal instead. And bill wanted Timberlake instead of making a run at the oral Roberts kid or a legit athlete shooter
-
Furphy looks like he’s going to be just fine, IMO. He’s 18? Active and moves fluidly where he’s supposed to be. Not forcing anything.
Hunter… boy, I’m not sure what to think. Ostertag might have been more mobile.

I have said I just think Hunter is just a bad fit, just doesn’t fit our play. - - Not saying he isn’t good but like they said Kevin coming from the BIG where they had Big Plodding guys - -here we RUN I’m sure Bill will figure it out.
Can’t agree on Furphy though. Kid should still be in High School , will put on weight, get some work out in. Been fighting shin splints, there is a reason he is on the NBA rdar. -give him some time. he is way behind because of the splints

Years end? I regretted them (U and Z) leaving last summer regardless of whatever guards we could have picked up.
-
@BeddieKU23 that was my analysis as well, I think we should slow it down and pound the paint often look like an earlier Bill Self team.
-
Dickinson isn’t the problem in the slightest guys. If we had shooters like Braun, Ochai or Gradey he would be fine. If I’m coaching against us I’m putting a zone out with 3 guys smelling his breath til someone makes shots.
-
This is the team we have, and it’ll be fun to see bill work his magic, so I’m done complaining about would haves and could haves. We road Dedric for a year so it can’t get worse than that
-
Timberlake needs to make one
-
@DanR probably a good attitude to have on the matter this early. I just laugh sometimes of the lack of basketball knowledge. Dickinson catches the ball with 2 or 3 guys on him and doesn’t get a shot up. Guards (except Kevin) no one within 8 feet of clank 18 footer, clank 3 pointer, repeat for for 2 games. Damn it Hunter do something lmao.
-
Hopefully Timberlake remembers how to make baskets at some point. Yikeys
-
@BeddieKU23 could just jitters playing at this level, surely he’ll settle in
-
If Furphy stays healthy he will play more than Nick this year.
-
Good plan to force some stuff into HD.
Make him work
-
Sweet pass
-
Harris with the nasty dime to kev
-
Going to the game Monday. Will be fun to see the new guys in person!
-
Coach mentioned some time back that maybe find a mid year transfer in the Portal - -I sure the hell hope so. Someone that can shoot and make a three
-
New kid on the block finally nailed one
-
This post is deleted!
-
Wrong boy band…. Timberkake finally NSYNC
-
Does anyone have a link to a live box score?
-
That was ugly. - - -6-28 from the three. - how many mid range jumpers did we make ? - -or shoot ? - - right now if e don’t get a lay up or free throw were in trouble. How many times did we get beat on straight line drives to the basket for lay ups by Fort Hays St ? - - -Mercy.–no that was impressive by far --LOT’S OF WORK
-
-
@BShark Furphy and Elmarko will be playing better and more by the first of the year.
-
First ten minutes or so were real then we experimented/coasted. Second half was almost all bizarre line-ups and the walk-ons played a lot. No one got hurt. I am happy.
-
I don’t see the furphy love. He’s pretty slow and awkward moving laterally. He Doesnt look like he has a driving game at all. His shot form is fine…But man if you threw a fort hays state jersey on him and he played on the other side I don’t think he would catch anyones eye. Even if this is suppose to be like the next svi, he’s also way skinny and not D1 body ready for this year
-
McDowell has way more upside as a future ku guy from what I’ve seen
-
@jayhawks2010 if he was in high school he’d be a top 30. NBA has already got him on their radar.
-
I guess we will see

McDowell got his cardio in tonight just like Illinois. Just didn’t do much at all. He’s a small wing for us at this point.
