Duke Game
-
Marko comes back in with 41 sec to go.
-
Poor Dukies need to be protected.
-
Melvin was a stud 2nd half. Marko can appreciate that
-
Positives:
-
Self didn’t play Elmarko much even without DP. So he sees he sucks the same way we all do.
-
McDowell same
-
Council and White had some really nice stretches
-
Flory is a stud when he isn’t in foul trouble
-
-
I don’t get why Dawson played so much. Kind of a weak link. I know elmarko is a total bust
-
@DanR hes a shooter. We need shooters
-
Thats why Ngala should play
-
@DanR Elmarko dribbles and runs in a circle quite nice.
-
That’s alright Jayhawks you played tough and hard. Thanks.
-
Thats why Ngala should play
Would have been unplayable tonight against this size. But generally speaking moving forward I agree he should get some run
-
@Jhawk69 too small against Duke
-
Expedition Unknown was very good tonight. Josh found a 150 year old mine and a little bit of gold. But not the giant stash that the bad guy hid in 1863. Entertaining nonetheless.

Juan did for years and everyone loved it. Probably works better with 3 nba guys around you.
-
@nuleafjhawk He actually found something?
-
After watching the second half, I’ll say again Kohl should come off the bench once DP returns
-
I was expecting much worse
-
I don’t think DP returns. We’ve seen this story before. But, I actually think this squad–without him-- has a chance to be in the top 10 by seasons end without him. A lot of youth, but with Tre and Council we could make a good run. IMO. Obviously a better team with him (as a diversion) the longer his poor hammy hurts.
-
There were some positives tonight. Flory and Tiller did a really nice job on Boozer making him work tonight. 18 points in 17 shot attempts is good defense.
Without Peterson, this team does struggle to make shots which was a concern heading into this season. There’s been a lot of good looks that haven’t fallen so hopefully they have a game at some point where the shots fall and build up tge confidence.
I still think this group has Elite 8/Final 4 potential this season, but getting Peterson back healthy is a big part of that along with Tiller becoming more consistent with his shots as well.

Ya my inside sources say he never plays again for Kansas again. Hes much more worried about the draft. Makes sense to me if it was a hamstring issue that was serious they announce it so he doesn’t look bad. That and if was a grade 1 sprain they shut him down for a month not have him come back and forth while showing no signs of discomfort.
-
@kjayhawks Have to agree , I think it’s time to Start J Dawson and let Kohl come off the bench for at least awhile.
Don’t have anything against Kohl I mean he is still suppose to playing HS Ball, and think he is overthinking some and pressing, he is just not bringing us anything offensive we- -need more.
-
@SlimShaddy54 kohl will be great in a few years for sure, just hope he’s still here in that time frame.
-
-
@kjayhawks ya him leaving early as of right now anyways is zelch , zero , nada unless he just ain’t happy with hid playing time for some reason . He is not doing anything on the floor right now for much interest from other schools.
-
Kansas 59-57 while Flory was on the floor. In other words, the 21-7 Duke run in the last 8 minutes of the first half was all those a holes needed to beat us.
-
Well I apologize to our boys and for the most part busted their butts off and kept this game from being a complete blow out. Just get some key time buckets to fall, or get that rebound when really needed
Tre busted his butt off – -huge game from him , Council was a day/night performance bad first half-- much better 2nd half.-- We just HAVE to get more from Kohl, like I said I think would be goo to swap Kohl for Dawson for awhile , let him come off the bench
I myslf don’t care what anyone else thinks I think they gave Duke all they wanted for the most part without our Stud , sure wish we could get him back BUT I don’t think that’s going to happen anytime soon.
-
@wissox this team is missing a back true 5 and a consistent shooter imo but we’ll have to see how guys grow into their role.
-
I still hate Coach K if anyone was wondering
-
Hey, Trey White. Nice to meet you!
