We're preseason Number ... 19

 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

 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.

 @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.
