They are very good when engaged. They had a rough stretch where, if you believe whisperings, Prohm lost the team.
-
@Bwag never heard that one
-
@Crimsonorblue22 it’s hard for me to both keep up with you all while trying to watch the game. But am glad I tried it today. Balance helps us so much and takes pressure off shooters.

I would love to see Grimes go all EJ for 40 against ISU and decimate the clowns.
-
@RockChalkinTexas it’s easier on 20 pt games and typos r ok
-
Let me guess, Roy still had 3 timeouts at the end of the Duke-NC game.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 But he has to watch us and that’s better!!!

Grimes filled up the stat sheet…that’s great. Lets keep seeing that.

Watching Zion Highlights, the dude had about 4 travels just in the highlights. He’ll fit right in the NBA

what do you think Bill whispered to Q after he tweaked his ankle when he laughed with him. “don’t go protecting the goods on me now?”

Well still alive on my prediction of us winning this championship - -Now Iowa State - would of rather played K-State- – -but you have to play whoever - - just got to go out and take care of business/
Really glad to see Quentin come around - tonight some more - - -hope he isn’t hurt. - - Really gonna have to get after it cause Iowa State spreads you out so much. -looking and hoping possibly that Ochai busted loose maybe from his slump - - we can hope. - -Can you imagine if Quentin starts to bust loose some more - - Obaji - -breaks out of his slump - - and Dave continues to play fairly soil -that would be very nice - -Well lets go out and like the new motto says " - -TAKE CARE OF BUSINESS " - -gonna be a war. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

I think it says Kansas stats

@dylans yeah! I’m blind
-
We out rebounded them by 10 - - that’s a good job after the way they pounded Tech on the boards
-
@Crimsonorblue22 took me a bit lol
-
And paranoid
-
@dylans I just realized that. Trying to read on my crappy phone.

Grimes REALLY got after it on the boards tonight. Hope he will be okay.
-
@BShark cramp?
-
@dylans Appears to have been yeah.
I just hope he gives full effort like that again, and he isn’t worried about getting hurt.
-
Think we end up with Higgins tomorrow?
-
I think there is a good chance we can get a 3 seed and have a chance to play in KC again if we can pull it off tomorrow. Everyone outside of KU fans will cry but I think you have to reward not only the best SOS but the most quad 1 wins.
-
@RockChalkinTexas Earlier today the schedule at http://www.big12sports.com listed WVU vs Texas for tonight’s game.
That wasn’t just tired eyes.
-
Hopefully Ochai’s 9 in the second half gives him some confidence back. Moore shooting 28% from the floor and 26% from 3 this season. I honestly thought he’d start early in the year over Dot but man for a guy was supposed to be a scorer thats disappointing.

If KU moved to the 3 line, they’d have to jump both Texas Tech and Houston to stay in KC. It might be more advantageous to KU to be the top 4 seed so they could be in KC that way.
-
@Bwag Those 8 rebounds by Grimes are the most important stat of the night. Great to see.
-
@HighEliteMajor Grimes also had 4 assists and 4 steals. Great all around.
-
@tundrahok Exactly - the activity we were all wanting. Man, he was feeling it at the end of the first half. After hitting a couple threes he was begging for the ball, but we went inside. That was right before he hit the long three to end the half. I sure hope we have him next season.
-
@HighEliteMajor I think we will see him next year. I think he and Coach Self have a good relationship. After he came out with that cramp, did you see Coach Self come over and say something to him that made him laugh?
Grimes has strong family support, and the wise move for his long-term future would be to stay another year to play under the tutelage of a hall-of-fame coach.
Remember Svi’s first couple of years? Everybody described what a sweet stroke he had, and how he nailed shots from outside in practice with a high percentage. But we rarely saw that in games.Then he matured, got tough and confident, and was fantastic by his senior year.
Grimes is sort of like that, but hopefully we’re starting to see the toughness and confidence already. We probably won’t get him for 4 years (Svi was what, 16 when he came to KU?), but I bet he’ll be back next year. And I bet he’ll be good.
-
@HighEliteMajor He still has a ton of work to do in a very very short amount of time if he’s not coming back. I haven’t seen him projected to get picked in a few months.

YA I think this is the 1st time all season I saw him getting after rebounds like he did last night all year - -hope he stays like that the rest of the eyar. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

I was thinking the same thing about Oahai’s slump last night. Maybe just enough in the 2nd half to let him see the ball going through the hole again, we could sure use him - I think he might be coming. - - Could you imagine if we could get him and Grimes both going again and the improvement of McCormack Dave no double digits last night but still got 8 rebounds - - - -have a healthy Marcus for defensive purposes - -would for sure help out in the coming days. - -ROCK CHALK LL DAY LONG BABY

Now it says today’s game is Big 12 vs. Iowa State. Somebody at Big 12 sports seems to have a problem with KU.

Our streak may have ended this year, but win tonight and the streak of winning regular season or conference tourney streak continues!
-
Can’t rewrite history but if Self had this core group to develop from the start of the season I can only imagine. Undeniably less wins early but this team is congealing AND having fun…seeing the return of the chest bump last night was icing on the cake.
