KU vs Dawgs Round 2 Game Thread
-
FTs % was terrible aided by Coleby and Young going 1/5. But idk if can remember a game with us just shooting 16 free ones. I kinda think the refs let them play a bit tonight which i like.
-
@Red_Rooster ha! happy you’re back
-
Awesome. Two legitimate post moves in a single game? We ARE coming along.
-
@kjayhawks Only 27 FTA between the 2 teams so I would imagine this crew will get a reprimand from NCAA head official.
-
Its my feeling that at the rate our front court is developing, we can expect three legitimate post moves next home game. I’m not sure we’re ready for three on the road, though.

-
@kjayhawks Well that poor kid that tried to keep Buke tied up just didn’t have a chance. Goliath definitely whupped David this time.

Vick with 9.
Also I like Graham with 11 ast.

This is prob one of the worst teams we will face this year, if LL is hurt no reason to send him out. Get the youngsters some PT. I’ll take KU 93 UNCA 60. Mason continues to be a monster and hopefully one of our bigs remembers to show up. I honestly would start Coleby, if the other guys aint gonna play hard then show them that its not gonna fly.
4th game this year I’ve been within 5 points total
-
But the guy shoots FTs every day!!!
And they practice from time to time in AFH.
And he warms up there every game.
He knows these baskets like Trump knows Trump Tower.
He’s got to be able to make 1 of 3 even back to the basket.
-
We feel deeper with Bragg and Lucas coming off the bench. Vick and Udoka earned another start.
-
I’m going with the trey percentage as the decisive factor.
-
Definitely. Although I would not complain if Tyler were given a look at starting at the 4.
-
@jaybate-1.0 with you. Mind blown that Young couldn’t hit 1 of 3
-
So what is all the Korean spam we’ve been getting lately.
Some fan from the WUGs trying to connect without using the translator, or what?
-
@approxinfinity Ya don’t like excuses from the line, i shot over 80% in High school, I know its not highschool but I can still make 7 or 6 of 10 now that i touch a ball bout every 3 months, Its easy in rhythm.

For sure. Frank was COOKIN today.
-
Advance copy of bedore’s work
Spoiler he like Udoka.
-
Lightfoot was efficient as hell, 3 minutes, 4 boards and 3 points.
-
Our very own spy.
-
@BShark I need our ku buckets credentials next time.
-
Shocking ESPN headlines.
Sexworkerville lost.
Huggybear’s maulers lost.
Ratso Izzo apologies to his team for the tough schedule.
And this insider link: HOW DUKE AND KENTUCKY GET ALL THE TALENT http://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/insider/story/_/id/18105765/duke-blue-devils-kentucky-wildcats-get-all-top-players
Someone needs to read that for me. I can’t bring myself to read it.
-
@jaybate-1.0 lol well in the past I blocked IPs on the server when we got spammed. I haven’t done that this time. I should. I had hoped they would just go away, but I know the world doesn’t work that way, sadly.
-
well that was a nice scrimmage, good to give Frank a LITTLE rest. – - 28 minutes tonight, hard to take away a lot from a game like this - -I mean let’s be serious this was UNC- Ashville - - BUT still good to get our beast some playing time - -let’s face it he is not going to be able to dunk every time later in the year when he plays quality big, but he is getting there. - -I really like LaGerald the guy can get to the boards, if he can get his three top start dropping did decent tonight ya just that much better for us. – -Jackson settling in and looking good - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@approxinfinity #firstworldproblems buddy remember when all you would get is a few unwanted phone calls lol

Spam bots gotta eat too, or something.

@dylans a head scratcher
-
Our next opponent is even worse if you believe kenpom. The game tonight, LBSU, UMKC etc are good games to get secondary players going. Liked what I saw out of Josh, Graham, Mason, Vick, Coleby and Doke tonight. Svi was okay.
-
Glancing at stats…
Doke 8-9 for 17 points!!! Self has decided to put the team on his back 5 minutes at a time. But he needs to watch the TOs and get back on the glass. A Deuce and Three Quarter footer with 3 reebs? Pitiful.
Josh had a really active floor game. I’m loving 4 reebs, 2 steals, 7 assists, 3 blocks, only 1 pop tart, and a partridge in a pear tree.
Frank being a man, but Frankie, don’t let those pop tarts creep up on you.
Devonte? 4 FGAs? Guess he was gassed from 6 boards and 11 assists. I’m still very worried about his knees.
Vick just iced most improved back court player for the pre con. Hyper efficiency. 6-7 FG and 3-4 3pt and and 9 boards!!! Holy cow! Who says you have to have visible legs to glass vac!!!
Bragg and Big LUKE did not look very good, but at the same time they were NOT bad. And that’s improvement.
Coleby didn’t do himself any favors, but he did get 3 reebs in a short time.
Svi is playing himself down the list of rotation players. He’s not playing bad. He’s just not impacting enough.
Lightfoot should get an earlier look next game. Not much earlier, but a little earlier.
-
@jaybate-1.0 except for a couple bad passes, I thought Svi played very well. I really like the one on one defense he is playing right now.
-
Absolutely agree.
But Self is making clear to him that Vick is doing more.
And Josh is doing more.
And Self believe Svi is an explosive player that is supposed to be doing more than gluing.
Self has talked a number of times about Svi’s potential to be a major impact player.
Self is saying: this is NOT enough.
-
@jaybate-1.0 self mentioned he was most excited for Vick to see the ball go in
-
@kjayhawks Maybe 2-3 years & a redshirt but he’ll get his PT down the road. Would be starting at many mid majors or some p5 schools. Also extremely talented & bright student & well self disciplined young man. Younger bro (HS Junior) is pres recruited & leaning to Air Force Academy. Baby is now 6th grade & 6’ 1"He’ll be recruited over, rebound, & never whine. I talked to his mom Thanksgiving. She was recruited by KU VB & went o Rockhurst. We miss em a lot. 1st class, great, absolutely phenomenal family, DNA, & pedigree. Take it to the bank he’s minimum a 4 year soldier that will do anything he can for his team.
-
@globaljaybird I love we get these quality kids!!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 The fact we seem to no longer get Relefords, Reeds, or Chris Pipers at KU or they no longer have the chance to flourish is making my zest for CBB shrink more than just a little. We’ve had our spats thru the years, but HEM & I
️ agree on one thing for dang sure. OAD’s are the real fools gold
in the scheme of a condistently great 
program. RCJH all day long 
!
-
@globaljaybird Ya i agree, we have to have guys like that.
-
@globaljaybird there are some pretty quality OAD guys too!
-
If only we could be Duke/UNC and get 5 stars to stay 3-4 years. I suppose we did with Wayne and Perry but they seem to do it all the time.
3-4 year players are definitely important. I will miss Frank and Graham.
