We're preseason Number ... 19
-
Is the information of how much NIL we paid each player available anywhere? I would be interested in this information as players now need to be evaluated not just for how good they are, but how valuable they are.
-
I’m not a fan of booing any Jayhawks!
-
Recruiting Hunter here was not Hunter’s fault. He was what he was.
-
Yes! Then maybe it means reformatting it.
Maybe it keeps an entertainment part of it, but add in some things.
- Dunk contest.
- Invite pro scouts (I think Calipari has done this)
- Add in other challenges like a combine for players to show off their abilities.
Make it entertaining but also helpful for players to be seen by scouts.
I’m sure others would have some ideas.
-
Has anyone heard or read anything about any kind of broadcast on this exhibition Friday?-- -I know the one against Arkansas was on over the Jay Hawk network when we played them.
-
I think its on the ACC Network
-
I’m lucky, I get it.
-
maybe if nothing else I’ll be able to at least listen to it like with Arkansas
-
Self has named Friday Night’s starting five :-- -Peterson- - -Counsel----White—Rosario- --& Bidunga.
Not saying much but Coach has said going to be hard to keep Kohl out of the starting line up. I like the combination, and know there is going to be a lot of early tinkering but I would be willing to bete this has a good chance to start REGULAR Season
-
Dawson is injured right? Definitely like the lineups where Dawson/Rosario are playing well enough to start as Council/White/Jackson/Flory lineups will be a bit rough in the shooting department. Maybe not as bad as the last few years but that isn’t something we really want to be comparing to.
-
Kelvin Sampson said KU is the bellweather for the BIG12. The league needs KU to be good at basketball.
-
Dawson has been injured of late. Self says everyone is good to go for the exhibition however we’ll see. He mentioned Kohl would start Friday.
-
Wel I see where Jerome is off and running- -making some pretty strong remarks I reckon , saying K/State has THE BEST PG – -THE BEST SHOOTER – -AND THE BEST ATHLETE in the Big Twelve this Season.- -Strong words Jerome-- -REAL strong words.- - question did you hit your head dude ?— Did you fall and go BOOM ?== time will tell

It’s Jerome making noise because of how invisible KSU is to the basketball world, especially the B12 world. We are all looking forward to a very competitive, quality B12 this year and there seems to be no oxygen left in the room for the purple kitties.
-
@drgnslayr so very true , they can’t even get an invite to cater the event lol
-
If you ask me, the fact that Bill has named a complete starting 5 is a good sign. Usually immediately before the season he says something like “players X, Y, and Z are likely going to start but spot A and spot B are up for grabs,” meaning he has three players he trusts in. Does the complete lineup mean he trusts five players already? We won’t know for a while, but I hope so.
-
@Jhawk69 That has caused a lot of chatter in the Jayhawkosphere about Khol and that he has come around much quicker and will have a huge impact.
-
I’m guessing Kohl is a fill-in starter til Dawson returns. Bill won’t dare start two freshmen and a sophomore all year! ha.
-
Are you guys getting ACC network through espn*?
-
It actually sounds like Rosario may just be better than Dawson and the team’s ceiling higher with him starting. Both will play a lot but sounds like Kohl has had the edge
-
We like it when freshmen are better than expected. Go Kohl.
-
Doesnt look like #19
-
Is it still halftime? I just realized it was streaming…but ESPN hasn’t shown anything but a still screen with team logos. I missed the first half.
-
@DanR we are at the under 16 timeout
-
Well, I guess it’s not streaming for me. See you all when the season starts.
-
@approxinfinity cable, started out streaming thru espn cause hockey was on
-
@DanR no cable?
-
@DanR On ACC network
-
@DanR I had to update espn app
-
Dumba$$ play cost us 3
-
Flop
-
Tiller
-
Tiller’s movement skills at that size are crazy
-
Terrible oop
-
DP doing to much?
-
@BeddieKU23 Dawson has been a little dinged up so they were limiting him some is what I had heard , nothing extreme just being careful
-
The announcers last night said - KU is ranked 19 and Louisville 11, they’re going to have to do something about that.
-
Elmarko seemed composed and inscrutable to me. The calm he exhibited while swishing free throw after free throw under pressure thwarted the Louisville coaches attempt to get within two a possession deficit.
-
The schedule is tough but I think this is a top ten roster. We have Darryn and others don’t
-
Maybe this has been mentioned already, but I am aggravated. Has anyone else noticed that we have a game against BYU and then 2 days later TTech and then have a 2 day turnaround also with Arizona and Houston? Is this typical? I remember we have had quick turnarounds against other highly ranked teams before, such as Houston, but I don’t remember so many in 1 season.
Houston, Iowa State, Texas Tech and BYU all have one 2 day turnaround and Arizona has two that I can tell with my cursory glance at each school’s schedule.
Of the other blue blood’s schedules, Duke has 3 with only 1 against a ranked team. (Louisville), UNC has 3 against 2 ranked teams (Louisville and Michigan State) and Kentucky has none. Other recent schools that have been good: Connecticut has none Arkansas has none Florida has none Alabama has a 1 day turnaround against UNLV after playing Gonzaga. ? tournament in late November. Ole Miss has none. Michigan State has 1 2 day turnaround against UNC.
This does not account for any tournament games played except for maybe Alabama.
-
@patoh3 nice sleuthing
-
@drgnslayr Wet t-shirt contest.
Run the length of the court balancing an egg on a spoon. Blindfolded.
Only allow dunks or shots from beyond half court
Free concessions for everyone attending
-
Bryson Tiller really does look like our best big to me…
-
@BShark hmmmmmm this thought had not crossed my mind.
-
@approxinfinity Flory looked unplayable against Hays and Tiller was better in the Louisville game as well, albeit it was closer there.
-
Mbiya has some promise, he at least has a “presence” inside which I do not see from Flory.
-
@BShark interesting. Alright I will ponder on that one against GB. I thought Flory had good presence against Louisville, but Tiller looks bigger and slower but maybe with a little more versatile skill set. Its early. But its def a thing to watch. Though i dont really want a position battle there because the rotation was good and we need all of them.
-
Flory has the best pick and roll game. The rest of his game needs a ton of polish.
-

This I would agree with, so he does pair well with Darryn in that way.
-
@approxinfinity Agree we need all of them. Not a terrible group at least.
