I heard Cunliffe talking after one of the tournament games. He sounded happy and optimistic about next year. He mentioned waiting his turn until his number was called. Who knows though? Last year showed things can change alot in the off-season.

@Jayballer54 If only the seniors leave we have 10 returning scholarship players. We have 3 incoming freshman. All of the scholarships are used. However from a scholarship standpoint no one has to leave.

@BeddieKU23 Maybe he can respond like Mario and Company

Could we see Bragg at the 3 if Udoka is in with Lucas?

@approxinfinity I wanted to see more Hunter. He changed the way the other team played for those 2 minutes. Huge impact on the game when in but really no impact on the game. Didn’t get a chance.

For the new guys I do feel a lesser amount of experience that involves winning is more valuable than a greater amount of experience that involves losing.

Except a lot of their blocks are more foul like when he hit Mason in the head but Landon got called for over the back.

@ralster I think you are right about it being calculated by OSU. Though I am probably the least appreciative of Greene’s often negative body language. Replaying this foul it looked as though Tinkle may have sold it. Brannen pushed him on his elbow. I played basketball and it would take more than that.

@Lulufulu
Interestingly enough KU actually has a really good rugby team.

According to the Providence pronunciation guide (we may need one of these this year) it is Chew-ku.

@jaybate-1.0 Would it have to be without Oubre. Is he not eligible to play this summer. Others are allowed to return by the rules so I thought he could maybe play?

I will show my love for Perry Ellis physicality in this last game. He had a taste of it the game before when he put a Baylor guard on the ground. This game found his opposing player on the ground because he stood his. Perry seems like he got a taste of contact and now he is going looking for it.

@approxinfinity Perry almost had a mean streak today when he was driving the baseline and the Baylor player put his shoulder into Perry. Perry just shoved him out of the way. It surprised me.

@drgnslayr I thought the worst was at the end of the game when Gottlieb corrected his announcer after he said this win probably helped KU towards their eleventh big 12 title. He began to list all these qualifiers such as the amount of games KU would need to lose and the amount of games other teams would have to win. He concluded this by saying it was still possible for another team to share the title with KU. Of course this is true but it seems sillier each win we have for these announcers to continue to come up with these fantastical scenarios where according to Doug another team could unimpressively be an asterisk next to our eleventh straight big 12 title.

@jaybate-1.0 You seem to pay attention to height. Last night it looked as though Svi has been growing. If he has had a growth spurt he would probably need time to adjust. Was it my tv or is he getting taller?

I agree

Lindy’s preseason poll ranked Hunter #12 center in the country.

@wissoxfan83 what about Kirk?

Did anyone else see his teammate whose sagging pants fell down when they were moving around behind him?

Can we have Tharpe redshirt this year and get his game together?

@drgnslayr Going back and watching early games again I noticed Perry actually slimmed a lot as the season progressed. This makes me wonder if we will see Perry at the 3. I am reminded of how they kept trying to get Withey to bulk up without success but finally let him be thin but light on his feet. That turned out well. Maybe they have decided to let Perry be the best Perry he can be. I think that could be fun to watch and scary for other teams.

@drgnslayr no need Embiid is returning to run the point

@HighEliteMajor I agree with you especially point 3. Frankamp was nearly flawless in every aspect yet was not in at the end until it was too late. When on the floor he did many things to make the team better beyond shooting. Sadly Tharpe seemed too eager to get rid of the ball as soon as he got it. Frankamp penetrated with with a couple dribbles just enough to open lanes and make easy passes. Tharpe exchanging passes at near halfcourt creates nothing. I don’t know I probably need a few days.

@JayHawkFanToo After all the injuries we have had this season your comment and Black’s about punching Wiggins for his birthday make me worried. I laughed but it was more of a nervous laughter. Really not too worried after a game like that.

Long time reader with nothing to say. I guess yesterday’s performance inspired me. After Black’s dunk when Seldon was jumping and falling all over. I thought this guy even gets floor burns from the bench. I hope we get to see more games like that.
