Chatting KU Baylor hoops here
-
ISUshooting 50% from the field
-
@Bwag OU was throwing up prayers like they were 20 down! Finally calmed down. I like Kruger, but not sold on him being a great coach, good not great.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 The way they were shooting/playing reminded me of Loyola Marymount 89/90 if they had been hitting a better %:
The 1990 squad (Loyola-Marymount) was also the highest scoring team in NCAA Division I history with an average of 139 points per game.[2]
-
@Bwag I remember watching them, did they have the kid that died?
-
@Bwag - nice sum!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 yeah. Hank Gathers…after he died, their NCAA performance that year:
First Round New Mexico State W 111-92
Second Round Alabama W 149-115
Sweet Sixteen Alabama W 62-60
Elite Eight UNLV L 101–131
Some crazy offense played in that time period.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Hank Gathers. Very promising future. Was leading the nation with 32 ppg and 13 rbpg. And that was in March.

-
@brooksmd sad stuff there…seems Len Bias was in that time period as well or maybe that is my aging memory collapsing time.
-
@Bwag Yep
-
Other teams were running and gunning in that period including OU under Billy Tubbs, UNLV with the Shark.
Not sure that defense was too much of a point of emphasis. Bill Self obviously didn’t grow up under the Tubbs coaching tree!
-
@brooksmd think I saw it??
-
@Bwag Although reading that article I wonder if any NBA team would’ve taken a chance on him with his medical condition. Don’t remember hearing about that back then.
-
@Bwag very!
-
@Bwag we r running now plus playing some D!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 If our game Monday nite is like this one I’m gonna need some tranquilizers.
-
@brooksmd wonder if they checked then? Like the Baylor kid.
-
We had 67 shots tonight.
OU with 5 minutes left has taken 67 shot…now 68
-
@Bwag The positive is we have the Phog on our side.
-
@brooksmd and D!
-
@Bwag %?
-
28 pts off the bench =- that’s huge! we’ll get used to this number from point on, i hope!
-
Danny told his teammates they were going to run with OU in the 1st half, despite what Larry had just told them! 50-50, still the greatest run and gun of basketball ever played in the college game!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 TT beat UT.
-
@brooksmd osu play?
-
@brooksmd Anyone know if it’s easy to get tickets to TCU games? We play them there on a Saturday, I’m thinking of doing something stupid and driving there and trying to watch us play.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Beat TCU.
-
@wissoxfan83 do it! My neighbors got tickets
-
@wissoxfan83 You are crazy.
-
@brooksmd he should take u!

@Bwag I think we look like 2008. The ball just zips around, and gets in the right spot. Maybe I am mistaken, but I don’t ever remember Baylor coming out of their zone to a m2m…ever. Holy cow, remember how we would struggle with zones in the past?
yeap. no more struggling if we keep the light on like this game. Self still owns Drew’s tail. 2008 is more oops and lobs… i’d like this team to utilize our C5 in that play more often.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Or I could pick him up on the way.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 I like it!
-
@brooksmd do it!
-
ISU tired!! No subs
-
Who’s yelling ‘oh my goodness’ repeatedly when Svi was about to shoot FT? I hope that’s not from our fans?
-
@wissoxfan83 Just looked at TCU website and that game is the only one sold out.
-
@brooksmd So you’re thinking about it too!
-
@wissoxfan83 Don’t think so.
-
@pa_grape some weird guy behing baylors bench, he did it 2nd half too!
-
@brooksmd come on!!
-
@wissoxfan83 Cheapest on Stubhub are $65 for midcourt nosebleed.
-
@brooksmd nosebleed is great!
-
@brooksmd Too much for me! Forget about it, shouldn’t have ever thought about it!
-
@wissoxfan83 that’s cheap! You drive, brooks buys
-
@Crimsonorblue22 That’s just for the ticket. Then there’s food, motel and gas. Send me your cc number.
-
@brooksmd u can stay w/me
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Yeah, that’s not gonna happen.
-
@brooksmd I was hoping u would cook for me

@FarSideHawk did you have fun?
We did!! This was my first trip back to Lawrence since I left after graduation in 98. We caught both games this week. my twin boys, who are bigger fans than me, had the most amazing time on campus and at the games. Bought more KU gear this week than I did in 4 years before.
