It will not work if you use the “Post quick reply” option, you need to use the “Reply” button further down if you want to include links or insert pictures.
You can still do the quick reply thing, post it, and then choose “edit” to bring up the top composing bar that has all the font and document-insert options. This is handy if you do not want to reply to a particular person. (Or just hit reply as JHF2 suggests, and then delete the name.)

@truehawk93 Jerry Palms a.k.a. “Rosy Palms” is the inventor of the RPI system. He is a very mediocre bracketologist, and a pretty bad interview.

that’s crazy
-
KU being a double digit over a P5 team is very suspicious.
-
@Ralster Well, good to hear from you again. Hope you’re a regular.
-
Not sure if this was already mentioned, lots of players from Raleigh in this game. Of course Graham for KU but Nebraska has Thomas Allen, Isaac Copeland and Anton Gill.
KU briefly recruited Allen before looking elsewhere.
-
Time for me to headover to the game site chat guys - -time to do this. - Slack here we come. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
Ugg. I can’t watch the game. The only thing worse than watching the Hawks play poorly is listening to Hannini and Gurley try to describe it.
-
Fast break pts
-
Holy crap!
-
I like these announcers
-
Whew…a little too close for comfort. How about Svi? Mr Clutch
-
@truehawk93 especially after killing us the last few possessions
-
The Sam Cunliffe era has begun. Give this victory to a great second half by Svi, a great game from Doke, a zero game again from Malik and good minutes from Mitch, Self is still the King of out-of-bound’s plays.Oh yeah, Devonte’s back. Great defense by Vick.
-
We saw what Self thinks of Cunliffe.
-
Sam totally bailed out Sosinki tonight, saved from 0-3 start.

lmao - -you stop that lol – ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
I’m sorry, I can’t believe what I just heard , Coach just said he thought we played really good defense. - -WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA? ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@BShark It was ridiculous, imo. Newman was obviously not right. Garrett missed every shot,. Why not give the kid 10 minutes, like you said you would pre-game?

Exactly - -2 minute. - - -TWO MINUTES? - are you kidding me? - -I think he should of played a little more and Garrett a little less. - -was suppose to spell Devonte and such - -Devonte still 39 minutes. - ROCK CHALK ALL ADY LONG BABY
-
I am not sure Cunliffe can play guard, more of a wing/SF, maybe PF but not guard.
-
Explain how Sam could start for the team that just spanked us for 35 minutes in our own building but he’s not better than Newman? Garrett is okay defensively, no reason to start Newman Monday absolutely none. I’d start Sam to see what he can do Omaha is terrible and should be a 40 point win. Let’s see what the kid can do.
-
Sam didn’t even play a minute. So much for guard depth. Close games will do that though, self always gets tight
-
Last year’s and this year’s ASU teams are worlds apart; Cunliffe would not be getting much time this year at ASU either.
-
@JayHawkFanToo I don’t think ASU is that great personally, but I’m willing to bet he would’ve started or been the 6th man. ASU is not a deep team bye any remote stretch of imagination.
-
I respectfully disagree. Based on what I have seen of Cunliffe and ASU, he would be the 8th man in that rotation or about the same as he is now at KU.
-
@JayHawkFanToo I’m okay to agree to disagree with anyone but not many times does a guy go from starter to 8th on a team in a year, not sure I’ve ever seen or heard of it.
-
While Cunliffe was the 5th starter, there were 5 players that averaged more minutes than he did and they have talented freshmen now. Like I said, he might have been a starter in name last season but would be the 8th player this year. Don’t believe me, just look at the numbers.
Jamari started 18 games as a junior and only 8 as a senior, mostly at the beginning of the season, if I remember correctly. Not that unusual when talented players join a team.
-
The info on Cunliffe, guys, was pretty solid. We saw him play in Italy. He was bad. He did not play well in 10 games vs. ASU.
It’s just a matter of Self getting him in, Cunliffe performing, and Self gaining a bit of trust there. That might be next season. But necessity is the mother of invention. Someone get hurt, etc., his opportunity may come sooner. He’s depth and that is nice to have. We’ll see how all that plays out. I think @JayHawkFanToo is right. He seems like more of a wing than anything on or near the ball. Svi kind of hogs that position now.
But Newman tonight? Ugh.
-
I will give Newman a pass because he is likely still affected by the concussion but…ugh is right.
-
@JayHawkFanToo If he was still impacted by the concussion, I really don’t think he should have been playing. Concerning that he said he was having trouble focusing on his exam on Monday.
-
As you know, players can be foolish and indicate they are fine so as not to lose playing time. If KU has 2 or 3 other players available he probably does not play but this is iron man basketball.

Because it was a tight game and we know all too well how Self coaches in those.

ASU is a MUCH better team this year. They infused a lot more talent into their program.
