Liberace Game Thread



  • Word is Silvio threw a punch, and just like every shot he’s taken this year, it missed.



  • Kubie said:

    Ok, lets assume Silvio is gone long term, 5+ games. McCormack, at best he’s out a game or two just for stumbling around over people waving his arms. So is Mitch’s redshirt coming off, at this point in the season I’d hate to see that happen personally.

    No chance. With the severity of Silvio’s reaction, there’s a high likelihood that Mitch would be the starting 4 next season next to Dave.



  • That whole exchange by De Sousa could have been avoided by not fighting Jankovich (guard) for the rebound, declining to pass it to him, and dribbling it down court and getting it stolen. Clown move.



  • Does anyone have video of KSU pushing an officer? Someone on here mentioned it.

    Hey I thought Grayson Allen should never play basketball again like 5 times. Where was Dick Vitale then?

    Up his ass and around the corner of course



  • Interesting that when I see stuff like this from other teams I think that’s crazy, wow why would kids do that. Now that the issue is right here, happened right in Allen Fieldhouse I feel zero remorse for any consequences handed out. Dispicable acts on both sides. Silvio picking up a chair is just out of this world wrong. I’m sure he feels bad now but he again is front page news. Hopefully the team can find a way past this



  • My apologies , My apologies , to everyone. - Went to the ESPN site and watched again, and people are right McCormack did not throw a punch. - -He was grabbing and yanking people back , and he did ook like he stepped on someone when they were down. Still going to probably be suspended for sure. -



  • @BeddieKU23 WWE and basketball are not a good combo.

    The NBA has glamorized this behavior for years, the standing over players, the shoving and fighting. The example they watched has manifested into something they think is okay. This was the very definition of not okay

    Don’t be overly surprised if Silvio is done. - -looking at multiple games suspension from the league , and WOULD NOT surprise me at all if Bill dismissed him from the team for his actions.





  • @jayballer73

    I would not be surprised at all it can not be tolerated.



  • @BeddieKU23 Honestly it’s us more than the NBA or anyone else that’s the problem. This stuff gets views, gets clicks, gets replayed over and over. We the American consumer are the problem. We all know and say it’s not what we want but our eyeballs say otherwise.

    your right. Like Coach said for this to happen on top of it all in the handi capped area - hope no one was hurt.

    I know this sounds bad but like I have stated sad night but losing Silvio can be dissolved - - wasn’t contributing really at all hardly seeing any time. It’s Dave more then anything - -how many games? - -I’m thinking just maybe the one - -unless the University adds to on top from the conference


  • Banned

    They are just kids. So sad that college sports powers would rather not help and teach instead of milking thus kids for money. That’s the real crime.



  • @benshawks08 Fascinating to look at fan reactions. Poor woman at the bottom scared to death while the frat boys (guessing here) up top can’t get enough. “Cool! Rumble!”



  • @mayjay lmao frat boy

  • Weber didn’t admit any wrong doing by his guys and says they played to the final whistle. For a group that cried for 5 years about Greene’s dunk that sure is chicken s***



  • Bill didn’t boot Brady for a DUI. He’s not booting Silvio.





  • @benshawks08 At first I thought that was a pic of the impeachment hearings.



  • Well this I know. - - I will bet you a Dollar to a Doughnut Security at their house will be beefed up max. - -you don’t think these idiots will be looking for anything. - -I bet you so many whistles will be called all game long you might not have ANY players left

    Dude that is an awful comparison. DUIs happen all the time. Brawls in college basketball are rare.

    there is no way they pull Mitch’s redshirt because of this stupidity. - - your looking at possibility couple of Games for Dave - - not worth pulling mitch red-shirt



  • Brady was suspended for a full semester.

    You’re right! A DUI is waaaaay worse.

    Don’t be so sure about Bill not dismissing him from the team. – He might not have any say, could very easily come from higher up - - Long or even chancellor - whether people want to believe it or not - a dudue grabbing a chair to go after someone - - there is no place for that in ANY sport - thank god for Howard grabbing him



  • There is clear video of DeSousa dropping the stool and leaning against the wall doing nothing after that. Made for a nice photo and that was it.



  • Meanwhile… this guy.

    I could see a mutual parting of ways after the year but not an outright dismissal.



  • Honestly you figured a team that’s 8-10 would know how to lose, just saying 😬🤷🏻♂



  • I wonder how many guys KSU will have for their next game?? I count 4 guys growing punches



  • Just read what the ejections were for. The reason all but 10 players were ejected were for leaving the bench area. The 10 on the floor at the time the brawl started were the 10 called back for the final sequence. Everyone else was ejected for leaving the bench area.



  • So any conjecture whether we will have more than 3 players for Saturday’s game?



  • I wonder if Silvio will be suspended with or without pay?

    I’m glad Silvio stared him down. They stole the ball while we’re having the clock run out and Silvio had a bad a$$ block. KSU started it by rushing SDS. What I do not like, and I mean DO NOT LIKE is the chair The rest is a blur for me. It seems like David and Garrett tried to separate players.

    Silvio needed to walk away after the block, that’s ultimately what started everything was Silvio not walking away after the block.

    True… although, it could also be argued that the start was the meaningless steal and attempt to score when down by 22 with 2 seconds left…

    maybe , but like I said he may not be the one making the decision in this



  • COHawk said:

    Worst case is KU would be down Garrett, McCormack, and Silvio. Nobody else on KU even appeared to do anything other than break up the fight.

    KU will for sure be without Silvio, and possibly without McCormack.

    Doke is going to have to Ironman it out Saturday and Enaruna is probably going to play some 5 as well on Saturday.



  • Sure ain’t getting much basketball out of him. So hey. Atleast were getting our money’s worth out of De Sousa for entertainment value… Starring Silvio in Roadhouse 3… How pathetic



  • If a player is ejected, isn’t he then suspended for the next game? Or is there an exception to that?



  • HighEliteMajor said:

    Ok that’s funny



  • @bskeet Big boys should be able to handle someone making a dick move. I thought Silvio did great by blocking it.

    He should have gone to check if the guy was okay, smiled, and helped him up.

    Angry about it after demolishing the guy with the block? That’s a head case problem right there.

    If you cannot successfully dribble out 3 seconds when only 2 guys are anywhere near you, ay yi yi.

    Sure, but that also happened against Monmouth and nothing escalated after that. Silvio standing over Gordon taunting him is what escalated this and got the KSU bench involved. If Silvio makes the block and walks away, nothing escalates so Silvio standing over Gordon and running his mouth is what started this.





  • Ellis from the ESPN saying he thought BOTH Mc Cormack should be done for the year. - I don’t see that happening.

    He was also saying WHERE were the KU coach’s - where were the team leaders trying to break it up? - -Obviously he didn’t see Self and Howard -
