    • RE: Jayhawks in the pros

      @Texas-Hawk-10 I am fascinated to see how Juan does with talent around him. Hope he finds his mojo.

    • RE: 2025 Recruiting

      Crazy that Coward went 11th to the Grizzlies. Having uncertainty about whether to stay in to being drafted 11th seems a massive jump. Was there a mistake in valuation somewhere?

    • RE: Jayhawks in the pros

      @Texas-Hawk-10 I am surprised. Pelicans were 21-61 last season. Wouldnt you take a flyer on more raw, high upside guys? Not guys with very specific and limited skill sets. I would have expected him to get a flyer on a more competitive team with a clearly defined role, like protect a lead by trading buckets, maybe paired with a rim protector.

      Have a hard time betting he will retire since this feels like the first coherent roster weve put together in the NIL era. Bill might have a few in him yet.

      What a difference a year makes. Would be fine if espn hype train ignores us completely until we make some noise.

      @Texas-Hawk-10 ive watched the near perfect game durant had against us several times where we still beat him. Also, we shut down Flagg didnt we? Granted that was early in the season, before he got good and we got bad. Anyway, yeah Mobley was special.

    • RE: The portal.

      Are we getting closer to imposing harder transfer rules now that universities can pay athletes directly and there is a clearer contractual legal path? I dont think NIL destroyed college sports, it just pulled the curtain back. Now we have to align what the schools and fans want with what the athletes want. Time to make the fans happy and lock kids into multiyear contracts.

      Unfortunately, there are reasons why the best coaches and most talented players are seldom the ones that are our champions.

    • RE: Generic soccer thread

      effort and passion is lacking throughout the entire American pay to play system. We shelter these kids from real competition, and we approach competition as a showcase for individual talent. That team was probably exponentially harder than teams many of them have faced on the pitch and it shouldnt be that way.

    • RE: Generic soccer thread

      @rockchalkjayhawk he’s being the exact opposite of Berhalter 🙂 instead of grinding out games with retreads he is throwing the kids in the fire and letting them take a beating.

      I agree people are grumbly. Hope he and the federation are prepared for a firestorm. Nice to see Berhalter’s kid still got his nepotistic chance in the sun. In a nation of 350 million people, what are the chances his son is good enough on merit alone. I know the answer. Its fine, hes just as good as thousands of other kids who wont get that shot. Why not him?

    • RE: Generic soccer thread

      I have faith that Pochettino is building something but our building out of the backfield was mentally sluggish. First goal was a pass with the outside of the right foot as he ranged left by Johnny Cardoza that bounced off the pressing player for a goal. The simple play was to pass back to keep or wingback and at least carry that with his left so he can shield with his body.

      Hope its a learning moment.

      Our back 4 wasnt good enough when it was veteran retreads every game under Berhalter so i like working with the youth. I am a little concerned that Miles Robinson isnt good enough.

      @drgnslayr I’m a big fan of your rationale about this! But calling another perspective “ absolutely stupid” throws up warning signals. Sounds like the times talkin’. So do “100 % guarantees” @Texas-Hawk-10.

      Sidenote. I just realized the hypocrisy of the Star Wars line “Only a Sith deals in absolutes”. Y’all sirs, ain’t no Siths :). Still, remember to let it breathe, my people.

      Some people split hairs about veiled racism. Others, crusade against curse words. Some try to rid the world of anything depicting sex or violence.

      I will die on this hill railing against absolutism and forced dichotomies.

      Carry on!

      @kuballin10 I think we will be fine with Flory playing some 4. Not terribly worried about that; Flory can guard anyone as long as he avoids fouls.

      @drgnslayr it is confusing to me when people say KU doesnt have the money other schools do. Why would that be? How is our budget not competitive? I appreciate you trying to put a finger on it, because it seems like fiction or correctable.
