    • RE: My crisis of faith in Bill

      @Kcmatt7 Newbie here. Thanks for lifting up Sunday spirit here. After watching the game again, I really like the combo tower HD & FB - hoping coach can make the best use of them from hereon. This could be the best combo centers in the nation. Imagine HD can use his soft touch plus another option to throw high pass just like what we saw yesterday, or seal for FB to finish strong off of a feed from any guards. We will be unstoppable if Harris can keep making 3s, helping others to score. I don’t think Storr is as good as advertised/was in Wisc. Been watching this site for a while and love what y’all have here. Appreciate the info, learning, useful insights for other Hawks fans here.

    • RE: Zeke Mayo

      Gotta bump this thread because this kid is the reason KU games are still must-watch for me! 🏀🔥 He’s a wizard at PG, pulling off every trick in the book to score or set up easy buckets. Head fakes, shot fakes, stepback 3s, sidestep 3s—you name it, he’s got it. He’s got almost the full offensive bag every PG dreams of having, and that’s why I can’t stop watching this team!

    • RE: Bounceback night What a sight

      Great needed win! And no, we didn’t blow 19pts lead… lol Flory - 15 minutes and 4 rebounds and 4 points, 4 Blks, 1 STL, 50% FG… he’s being sabotaged, again. You got high motor, athletic ~7 footer, but noone threw him lobs. 2 touches. 2 freakin touches for the whole 15 mins on offense. He’s the team’s alpha dog from now on. He just needs to show a bit of emotion. Damn cold assassin.

      @Crimsonorblue22 Nice one! I think Juando deserves himself a dedicated post highlighting that crazy maneuver diving in, stealing, and passing the ball clean. Hats off to him - plus he scored more buckets than usual!

    • RE: If Bill’s roster falls apart…

      I’m still trying to wrap my head around this—just look at this dude!

      Flo lives to rack up points! He’s a blocking machine, crashes the boards like a pro…

      So why isn’t he getting more touches? Does the coach believe in him? Do his teammates trust him to deliver?

      He’s a STRIKER. FLO LOVES TO PUT BALLS IN THE NETS. LET HIM COOK!

      I don’t care if everyone else is leaving, but Flo must not go.

      Can you imagine him and Sammy, DP kicking everybody’s arses! I’m keeping my hopes up.

      HD looks less athletic even against the least athletic team in B12.

    • RE: Lets take the lead into the first TV timeout!

      I watched the replay, hoping to see some improvement from their last meeting. Boy, I tell you what, Diggy might be the smallest on the court, but he’s got the biggest balls. We played a bit tougher D against their bigs in the paint, losing by a single digit against a very strong & athletic team like Houston didn’t look that bad. Offense wise, you can tell team doesn’t practice enough throwing lobs, they look panicking (UH’s disruptive D) - you can tell our guards don’t seem comfortable. Harris, couldn’t agree more with some here, is the worst PG in top-25, KU’s school history. Cryer made him looks like a D2 PG. I’m looking forward team to pass quality passes instead of desperation passes. 40 vs 70 attempts say it all. FB played 17 minutes only got 1 FG. That’s a really pathetic offense.

      @rockchalkjayhawk 20 TOs might be the worst this season. But that’s expected the way BS’ runs lousy offense.

    • RE: Interesting Rumor/Note

      “This is the first time it has crossed my mind. I actually hope to do it a while longer. Times are different. I used to look at it, and I got a dear friend who talked to me about this all the time. You kind of look at life in five-year increments. I’m not sure it’s five years anymore. Maybe two or three. And then, you decide what you do after those increments. I don’t know how you guys look at it, but that’s not anything I’ve spent any time one. I like our team and I’m very excited about a recruiting class moving forward. I don’t have the answer, but I know that I’m just in the back nine. I don’t know if I’m on 13 or 16, but I’m not on 18.”

    • RE: My crisis of faith in Bill

      @approxinfinity I’d like to hear from journalists (Newell?) asking coach, too (…maybe he was caught up in thinking Hunter and Flory couldnt play together) - lol… KJ’s on sideline has brought some light to the darkness in KUMBB, IMHO. Let’s hope coach will find the right formula going forward, we’re pretty darned close. Hopefully, FB’s 19pts against top dog Cougars gave enough testament to coach that he’s grown up, he’s ready to bring this team to the next level.

    • RE: My crisis of faith in Bill

      @approxinfinity Sounds like coach should consider playing HD, FB, KJ plus Harris & Zeke/Shak. At anytime 2 or all of those 3 must stay throughout the game. Yep, FB should play 75% out of the 3’s PT (I doubt though, knowing coach Self). I believe we’ll be able to compete in FF comes March.

    • RE: Bu Ku

      We’ve got lottery pick in Flory. He’s line today: 1 block, 1 steal, 1 FG (from the steal). Something’s amiss… How can we not utilize a lottery pick on offense? It’s mind boggling. We’ve got height advantage in HD & FB, but 22 3s tell us, coach really need to ramp up his offense. Oh, and rebounds. We got outrebounded so bad. I guess both defense & offense need to get better in a hurry.

    • RE: Oh how I hate Kansas State.

      What if… I said again What if, BS completely adopts runner & gunner team or at least try one season. Just one season, when he won’t need to rely so much on a PG or two. Draft only those who’s got length, athleticism, ball handling skills - don’t have to be prolific 3pt shooters, but the prior skill set is a must. We’ve got Marko, DP, Calderon, Kease, Rylo with those characteristics plus benchers like Storr, Tiller. If FB stays, great. I think we’ve got ourselves a run-gun A team next season. Plus, God forbid, BS’ recruiting staff doesn’t screw up, we can get 1-2 like DeVries or Ballo that’d be heaven. I imagined FB would be molded by BS turning to someone like Ballo, but boy… reality bites.

    • RE: If Bill’s roster falls apart…

      I wonder if a good ol’ student protest would shake things up here—maybe with some catchy chants like, “No Trophy, No Tenure!” This feels like another wild what-if scenario. Honestly, there are probably a ton of colleges out there with a “win or walk” contract: if the head coach doesn’t haul in a national championship within eight years or at least crash two Final Fours, he’s getting the boot. No pressure, coach! 😆

    • RE: Oh how I hate Kansas State.

      @SlimShaddy54 #100 and won ugly… but it’s a good confidence building for the team and HC. Team will win double digits again against the Yutees before getting drained by BYU’s 3s. I really want to see Flory deployed on the perimeter. That’s the only answer to guard those 3s.
