We will win there!
-
25 pts for hunt
-
Big games from 3 starters. Needed it all
-
Negative Ned’s!
-
Make FTs now please
-
The starters have been fine today, Bill Self said he found a bench. Todays game has determined that was lie (Maury Voice)
-
Who feels better about our team today after this showing ?- -I know I sure don’t
-
Methinks that maybe this game proves that Bill Self was right about KJ and people on the internet were wrong
-
Enjoy the win today. Better then losing.
-
@SlimShaddy54 felt pretty good the first 15, but then…
-
@StLJhawk Our defense just stinks
-
-
Both sides can be right. It’s about how many minutes he plays and the impact that has on the offense. Can’t expect the bench to all of a sudden be the reason for improvement. Would take time to see
-
@BShark ok, Ned!
-
RCJHKU
-
@Jhawk69 that’s what Hanni and Gurley were saying, KJ brings that energy and the kid can play defense for sure

We have no answer for Coleman when Flory is on the bench. Was a big issue all game. Made KSU’s offense look good.
-
Fly by shake, such a stand up coach!
-
Ugly, but I’ll take it. Good guys win again
-
@Crimsonorblue22 purple? More like blur-ple
-
I said if we lost I was done with this team and then I said if we couldn’t at least win by double digits it would feel like a loss. Haha we win by 10, 2-0 on the day my son’s team won this morning. Let’s go Chiefs!
-
Nice. I coached 6-7 year olds this morning. It doesnt get any better. Savoring it.
-
@BeddieKU23 What would be the point of calling for others to play instead of KJ if people didn’t believe that doing so would make us better?
-
A conference win is a win. By 30 or by 1. We all know this after watching decades of KU ball. B12 is gonna be a dogfight as per usual.
-
@SlimShaddy54 True! I sync Hanni and Gurley to my tv every game.
-
Raftery told Hunter “great game and didnt take a 3, Bill will be happy!” Lol
-
Probably the best game they have played at home in conference play so far. Can only get better i hope
-
Hey Ned’s, I said Juan and kj love KU, Hunt does too, he always says Rock Chalk!
-
Our formula going forward is we have three scorers Hunt, Mayo and Juan and we need more points from them every game like this as there is none coming elsewhere. I would say 55 - 60 which they can get. Our bench is just not going to hit threes like I hoped. This way we will be in any game and that’s all we can ask. Good home win.
-
Ha and Uconn lost. Icing.

I honestly don’t think KJ would’ve made a big difference in this one either way. We had every chance to run them out of the gym. We probably win by a little more with on defense with how bad Passmore, Griffen and Storr were on that end.
-
AJ with 17 minutes, Rylan with 12 minutes and no shot attempts. Doesn’t make a lot of sense.
-
Hunter with 25 points (12/19), 8 boards, 3 assists. His defense sucks but he can offense
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich he can offend?
-
Zeke with 24 (7/12) 5 boards, 3 assists. He is our best player.
-

Judging by the comments I read about him from neutrals every game, he can.
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich ya really not a lot to complain about with the starters outside of some of the expected freshman mistakes of Flory. The bench was just flat out gross today. Storr at least scored a little so it helped but defensively that ain’t gonna cut it.
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich By far , hands down
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich This played out exactly like I said- - I called out and said after the ISU game I said watch Dickinson will come back with twenty and twelve , because that what he does.
Plays well against Average bigs, - -average teams, but you put him up against equally as tall/talented Big’s – just like against ISU he is pretty much a non factor. - -Let’s see if he will produce for us like this against Houston , or when ISU comes back around again, don’t gt your hopes up
-
I’m a little disappointed in the effort. I didn’t have as much of a problem with playing time (except that stretch with Kease and Diggy) but there were way too many lapses. Giving up 45 in the second to an absolute garbage team is straight bad. Gotta clean that up before Wednesday.

Notably we did not see Diggy in the 2nd half.

We can’t play two negative guys at the same time. Gotta sub one guy at a time. What r your thoughts about rylan?

Had some good moments today. Drive and kick out but the guy he passed to missed wide open looks. Was surprised he played less than Storr.

He was definitely a mixed bag. The one drive and turnover was absolutely awful but he did have the nice assist to Hunt. TCU is a better matchup for him.
They play mostly smaller around old friend Big Ern so it should be a good AJ/Griffen game. I really like our guards vs. theirs as well. Allete is the loosest cannon and Shak/Juan will really bother him. Reynolds is a lot better but those two guys are really their entire offense.
-
A lot of the time we don’t seem to run any offense that’s going to get Rylan open looks
-
Diggy turned down shots on couple of good looks
He seemed tentative
-
KU missed KJ’s energy today. Giving up 74 to KSU who is flat out terrible this season. If they play like this on Wednesday, they’re losing to TCU.
The defense was terrible and KU lost the game after the first media timeout. After KU went up 14-0, KSU outscored them 74-70 the rest of the game.
For me personally, there wasn’t a lot to feel good about today’s game if KJ ends up missing extended time.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 = = I couldn’t get much feel good out of this today either. Kinda puts a damper and I really don’t have much expectations after today.
Our defense went back to it’s old habits of just getting or giving up way to many open shots or lay ups. I mean come on let’s face it K/State sucks , but they can make lay ups, open ten footers. Thank God they were not good at the free throw line, this team is just really disappointing.
Say what you want about KJ - -it showed out there today -I really like Flory but Flory and who Griffin took his spot today - -What did they score- -Eight points- - Hell KJ can do that, but I’m not getting into all that now- - let’s be real this is far from a Championship team, some glaring decencies we are not that athletic, and it shows- -just kind of frustrating, depressing but it is what it is- -Seems like Zeke is the only one that can’t make three’s consistency. -ya sure not thumping my chest after this one. -I looked and I figured out how I think we end record. Looks like about 23-8 to me, maybe 22-9 not typical record of KU past years

I wasn’t able to watch the game, so don’t know how they looked on the court, but the combined stat line is awful. As you note, 29 minutes combined. Basically a full game. 7 points. 6 shot attempts, all Storr. 2 rebounds (zero defensive). 1 assist.
