2Big words that should be drilled home out of his conference that EVERYBODY needs to pay heed to , because these two words are going to be the or two of the most vital things if this program EVER has any chance of turning around. Those words ? - - Continuity & Consistency. --If you can’t get that then the chances of us EVER getting things turned around is zero to NONE. Probably the 2 biggest words coming of of Coach’s mouth today - - love it. Like he said it’s NOT the kid’s fault

I also don’t see the transfer numbers being as high as they are this season going forward since it’s only a one time deal on not having to sit out. I think this being the first year of the rule has created a spike in transfer numbers and I think we’ll see a smaller number next season. I don’t see it ever going back to pre pandemic numbers, but I think somewhere between 900-1,100 per year probably becomes the new annual range.

@BeddieKU23 said in Coach Howard: @jayballer67 The assistant went to Kentucky Cal tryin anything worried about the ship sinking again next year

yep- I actually bough his jersey last year - a first for me in over 27 years of following the team - some guys you just like more than others for some reason, and I liked him imediately. I aways was drawn to the role-player do it all defensive guys, who are 100 percent Jayhawk from the get-go. All signs point to him leaving to make some money somewhere. I don’t see him sticking to an NBA team, maybe G-league, or perhaps better overseas, then ,most likely getting into the coaching ranks. HCBS will help him get a coaching job at some point. He was also one of Self’s fav all time guys I feel.

@BeddieKU23 said in Offseason Thread: Mike McGuirl returing to K-St for his 76th season. Hard to imagine someone actively trying to stay with Weber but to each their own He can take 2 more Ls to KU, good for him.

@FarmerJayhawk said in Coaching Search/AD Thread: @jayballer67 agreed. This year could be rough. Lots of new things happening, big transition. But it wouldn’t surprise me at all to see 4-5 wins in 2022 and bowling every year after. Right. the key for this year is Patience , Patience , Patience.

@jayballer67 Bill Self was hired by an interim AD.

@Kcmatt7 said in Long Out: @FarmerJayhawk I know they want to keep the team and recruiting class together, but that seems like a worse case scenario hire. Let him have the interim title for a year if you want. But I wouldn’t rush to make him the guy. Was thinking if they wait until November. If Jones wins 4-5 games and puts another good class together I think he deserves a look.

@AsadZ said in Mitch and Teahan: @Kcmatt7 It wont count for next year however depending on next year’s class and who comes and goes, it can have a ripple effect beyond 2022. Self will have to manage it carefully. Lightfoot won’t affect 2022 recruiting. The IARP ruling is the biggest influence on 2022 recruiting right now along with Marcus Garrett’s decision having the second largest impact.

@jayballer67 said in 2021 Schedule: @FarmerJayhawk said in 2021 Schedule: @jayballer67 said in 2021 Schedule: @FarmerJayhawk said in 2021 Schedule: I think that’s a near inevitability, especially on defense. A full offseason with 15 spring practices will be huge given we’ll have 45ish true freshmen on the roster this spring, 60 in the fall. I think we are back to our full limit now aren’t we ? Really close. I think we’ll be at 80ish come fall. The 22 class will be probably 12-15. Pretty small. So young - - so very young I think i read of TOS that when it’s all said and done we have like 49 freshman 49 true freshmen! We’ll have around 55 total including redshirts come summer.

@FarmerJayhawk No wonder they play sandstorm when we come to town

@approxinfinity said in Biden and Vaccines: Why would we order 200 million more guaranteed [or no payment] vaccines from Pfizer, when we could wait a year longer for companies that worked within the constructs of Trump’s Project Warp Speed, so that our Lord and Saviour Trump could claim credit for our Salvation? Idk but I’m unbelievably happy the major winner in all this rejected the bounds of a typical center-left PPP and went balls to the wall risking its own money and reputation to develop the best vaccine it could in record time. It’s a wonderful thing.

Read where Rick Neuischel former Coach of Colorado pushing for the job at KU - reaching out to some Big KU Booasters

Debord’s most recent stint as an OC in the college ranks was at Indiana in 2017 and 2018. In 2017, Indiana was 69th in total offense and in 2018, Indiana improved to 52nd in total offense. In the two years before that in 2015 and 2016, Debord was OC at Tennessee and he took Tennessee from 52nd in total offense in 2015 to 40th in 2016. Tennessee was also 3rd in PPG in the SEC in 2015 and 2nd in the SEC in PPG in 2016 at around 35 ppg each season. Debord can put together a good offense in a good defensive league. He’s not going to work miracles with KU’s offense because he had Josh Dobbs and Jalen Hurd at Tennessee and freshman Peyton Ramsey his last year at Indiana. He had weapons at QB at those jobs so if KU can get competent QB, Debord can create a solid offense for KU.

@FarmerJayhawk said in Texas: Parchment gone. SOB - -well Mayberry & Parchment Seniors anyways. Can’t blame Parchment, what a wasted year. - how many receptions he have anyways ? - didn’t have anyone who could get him the ball or beter yet - -the time to get him the ball

Dave makes a gimme dunk and the front end of a one and one and it’s moot. We wouldn’t be in the game period without Jalen playing legit minutes at the 5

@drgnslayr Howard just got his, Jordan’s been some really good teams including right now with Brooklyn so he’ll have a really good shot at getting one next season. Capella had a few good shots in Houston. Drummond is the only one that’s consistently been on bad teams in Detroit and still managed to make multiple All Star Games. None of those guys have ever been considered elite offensive players because none of them are good shooters, but they’re all top end rebounders and defenders which is something Doke has a chance to be as well. Dole’s never going to be a good shooter, but as long as he can finish lobs and keep finishing when close to the basket on top of rebounding and his defense, he’ll have a long NBA career.

*parts of it. Don’t drink and post.

How’s his mom?

@FarmerJayhawk The TO margin was a huge factor in 2018 in KU being as close to a bowl game as they were. KU’s offense and defense simply aren’t good enough to give teams extra possessions and expect to win games when they are the least talented team in the conference. Since KU doesn’t appear to have a game changer at QB, a game manager is needed to keep possession as much as possible.
