@kjayhawks2.0 it’s not even remotely close, he’s our best player. His BPM is almost 19, which is absolutely silly. For reference, the guys you mentioned were between 8-10. And that’s not even counting him going supernova against Louisville. He just has that other gear that’s unreal.

Yeah he’s definitely not all the way back yet. We saw what player he really is against Louisville, the best guard in college hoops.

DP's absence is turning KU into a very good team. Which is good, because you can stick a fork in him. He's done. We will not see him play the rest of the season.

lol

I’m missed most of the game, was able to listen to parts of it. So DP is hurt yet again or what is the story there? Council found the bottom of the net I see.

DP played 31 minutes (season high) but his hammy got tight late. It’s pretty clear to me he’s just not quite in game shape yet. The burst is almost there, but needs a little more time to come back entirely.

Well, let’s get this beatdown over with.

@TYOHawk you’re 100% right. At some point you have to just pivot. To use a metaphor, if the lady you’ve been seeing for 6 months or whatever doesn’t want to commit you move on.

We’ll be factors for Branch if Stokes goes elsewhere. He’s just on the back burner for right now

@crimsonblu22 I’m not sure. I would guess there wasn’t overwhelming enthusiasm to play

@Kcmatt7 I’d bet a lot they will. ESPN makes a lot of money on them and they draw a spectacular audience relative to whatever else they’d put on. Even garbage bowls draw 3m+ viewers.

@Kcmatt7 we’re not going to get fined. A lot of smaller bowls are money losers for schools. Just not $500k bad. They’re just contractually obligated to go if they win 6 games.

A couple reasons. The AD would lose money it first of all. Next, a lot of the players have finished their semesters and left town.

@crimsonblu22 yep. I know the finances made no sense but it would’ve been fun anyway.

Well, we declined.

I really hope we accept if invited. Get young guys some reps and JD the farewell he deserves.

Baylor declined. I think we’re next in line.

Maybe?? https://x.com/brett_mcmurphy/status/1997799739350511944?s=46

Always a good day to beat down the slavers. DP did what he was supposed to. The supporting cast really showed out. Mari continues to impress me.

FUN BELT LETS GOOOOO

I know this is the portal thread but what does signing day actually mean in 2025. I mean can’t the players still get better offers and go elsewhere before the season even starts.

Transfers, yes. High school kids, not really.

@nuleafjhawk said in Other Football Games Of Interest:

@FarmerJayhawk maybe we could go in their place?

Rice and maybe another couple schools would have to decline. It goes to whoever has the highest Academic Progress Rate and Rice is the Georgia of academics lol
