@FarmerJayhawk said in Injuries piling up: @BeddieKU23 also, heard the foot will be fine. He’d go if needed Hope so, I’m always worried with bigs that get foot injuries, how much impact that means long term. Hunter is a big dude and carries what 260-270 pounds. Wear and tear… Hopefully it gets put behind him. We need him.

I heard late pm is on espn+ tonight, 6:30. Don’t hold me to the time. Anybody ever hear if pre and post games will be back? I so enjoyed them.

I always thought NIL stood for No Intent of Loyalty

@approxinfinity said in Shakeel Moore with a broken foot.: I dont think this is a title roster. Zero defense. I’m gonna upgrade the zero defense to 35% defense. Harris for 20%, KJ for 10% and Hunter gets 5% for blocks. There’s potential to upgrade to 55% defensive ability if Griffen decides to play some. Or, i wonder if Self says screw it and tells Passmore his ticket to the floor is aggressive defense from the start. Griffen as a bench spark. That would bump up the grade as well!

I don’t want to see it change but this sport figures to be a shell of itself within the next 5 yrs so it’s going to be a lot of disappointment anyway. Pressure to expand seems evident from schools. Money wise there seems to be little incentive. Lots of decisions keep plowing forward with little regard for what fans want

@dylans said in Big-12 going to 20 game league schedule: Does anyone know the 2024-25 bball schedule? I know some games have been announced, but I wasn’t sure if the schedule has been figured out by someone yet or not. Full non-conference schedule usually isn’t announced until sometime in June and the Big 12 schedule in August/September. We know games against Michigan St., Duke, UNC, NC State, Creighton, Missouri, and Furman will happen. That should leave 4 more games to be announced.

Let’s keep our fingers crossed… low injuries… no off-court “fouls”… and a team that gels well and everyone finds their happy role. Then we know we have a real shot and enough depth. I’m getting excited for fall ball and it’s early June! Tomatoes are huge this year with plenty of spring moisture. Yippee! My biggest concern is defense and hungry rabbits!

@kjayhawks I feel like there’s three starting spots locked in with Juan, kj and Hunter……I doubt Self removes him from the starting lineup

@kjayhawks Looking back, Uconn didn’t play their A game but it was still good enough to beat KU even in Allen. We just seemed to match them that day with the home crowd being a big factor. We were also healthy at the time and they weren’t. Perhaps that was the difference right there in itself

@jayballer67 I would worry if it was the teams attitude, the fans don’t determine any outcome unless they donate piles of NIL cash.

I know not NIL tournament related but saw where there will be no Big 12 & Big East battle this upcoming Season

How many doinks or that annoying shattering rim sounds did we offer up? That is why we lost I mean they shot lights out and didn’t hit the 80 mark. We can expect better from our three PG, SF and C. Hunter can do better than at the rim air balls. Surely he is practicing treys. We are as thin as a wafer any way you turn it.

@Crimsonorblue22 said in McCullar out vs Baylor: Self didn’t sound hopeful in pregame McCullar starting according to Gurley

@Gorilla72 from everywhere!

I was at the game and the way he reacted it was clearly bad. In good news Juan was great and we need him tomorrow! EJ stepped up and hopefully has some confidence now! Hunter looks hurt. He’s more unselfish than I thought and seems to be such a team player compared to what I’d seen up north. He needs to shoot the top of the key 3 more Rock chalk let’s shock houston

I understand that there is potential for a lot of contact, but what used to be fouls are not called as fouls anymore. I have played basketball and had busted lips and split my chin open requiring stitches, so I know the physicality, but it seems almost too physical to the point that players are being put in harm’s way.

@kjayhawks This is a global issue caused by social media.

@benshawks08 you r right. It was just recently. That’s what made me wonder.
