KSU paying Hawkins 2 mil

@AsadZ said in Coach Schneider copying take of Coach Self Recruiting: Next year is looking good. Hope this year’s team will gel with so many newcomers and no size in the paint. you watch any of the Iowa game last night ? what you are talking about height being a problem showed up. Look like just about anytime Iowa needed a basket they went inside , so ya looks like it. Having said that though as crazy as it sounds even though ew got beat - -I thought personally it was the best we have looked all year. I dunno , just like the flow of the game for them was so much better… Can’t say for sure but I’m afraid come time for league pllay it might be a long year fo us this year with so many new comers. , we lost a lot of key players from lat yr As for next yr hard not tol not get excited with the talent we got coming in plus the returning group. We got the # one player coming out of the State of Oklahoma - – We got the # one player coming out of the State of Kansas - -Both Gatorade Players of the year , the # 17 - - -& # 21 rnked players – -three in the top fifty plus our 5 Star that will be a Junior-- things gonna be ok

@FarmerJayhawk Urgh

@nuleafjhawk I think in 1998 and 2012 had they not choked they would’ve made the NC but got their asses spanked by 30 plus

@kjayhawks That would just tie us with ASU and they hold the tie breaker. – I still fully believe we will host the first weekend of the Tourney

@Texas-Hawk-10 Heard several people say they normally give you 3 points for the home field , so basically calling it even with BYU a 2.5 favorite

Still a very successful season

Well Dam , that was discourgaging. They just got out played 24/26-- - - - 25/20— -20/25 - - -& 25/27 -close but no cigar, was playing from behind most the night.

@wissox said in Found interesting question off TOS , I can see a little logic.: Houston beats KState. We destroyed Houston, barely lost to KState. Houston also beat TCU whom I thought was our toughest opponent. We really struggled to stop them. There’s a side that I’m a part of that we’ve won some moral victories at least this year. I know that sucks but some times the odd plays that happen in a season cause us to lose like every time. Go back to my what if post. I’d rather take some satisfaction in these crazy frustrating losses than losing by 50 every week. weird thing about it is, and a lot won’t believe this, but even crazy frustrating losses are better then being blown out losses of fifty.- -There is a reason they are called crazy and frustrating-- -it’s called progress. People don’t like to accept that , but it is what it is.----- Thee was a time not that long ago people would lay wagers on how bad we would get .beat , winning wasn’t a option.

@FarmerJayhawk said in KU and questions about NIL: Just an educated guess, but KU has a top 5 NIL program for hoops. We can go out and get guys like Hunt and Storr without much trouble retaining talent. Well thank you for your response, cause I seriously didn’t know. Was just curious if we would or could be if we wanted a really good player where we knew there would be serious offers and how long could we compete if need be in a biddin war in the NIL for the player

Our strength of schedule rating should be interesting to watch this year.

@approxinfinity said in Our Ladies still staying very aggressive: My son is the setter for his high school team. Gonna have to see if we can catch the KU games here. ESPN? Maybe but doubtful - - -KU ladies most of their’s have been ESPN + – - two games one on ESPNU --the other was on ESPN 2

I was watching a podcast for KU last night and they brought up a point which I had been thinking about too , and I think it was a valid point. They were talking about if JD 's passing game isn’t up to snuff - -I think they said this last game maybe was 48 % -so if JD’s passing isn’t cutting it -Then Grimes and CO need to make changes - - We should be utilizing JD’S–legs more. Like was brought up-- -look guys what were doing is NOT WORKING - something has to change . JD’S passing up to snuff , and they also said our receiving has been horrible-- -other then Grimm -you put that together and you got a really bad recipe. You have to make use of Jalen’s running ability , ya ya, I know better chance of him getting hurt - -understand that BUT also understand football is a physical it’s going to happen regardless. You have go to put your team in the best position to win and - - --right now Passing is not getting it done, and your gonna start seeing teams stack the box and say OK beat us with the Pass , cause you sure in the hell are not gonna beat with the run Why aren’t we seeing more counter options- – more speed options ?- —when Coach K was here – constant motion - - formations- -defenses didn’t have a clue. - -We got the same personell -so wheer is our options ? - -something has got to give.
