    • Josh Jackson deserves some defensive props vs Baylor

      I just watched the game again for about the 5th time, someone on youtube has it cut down to 40 min so it is an easy watch. I believe JJ ended up w 1 rebound, seriously? 1? So I went back to watch to see how this happened, and when I did I see it is because JJ worked his tail off defending men much larger than himself.

      When you are playing out of position and having to guard a 7 footer when you are only 6’8" your best friend in the post is to front side them and try to make them throw over you so help side defense can come over and maybe pick a pass or deflect the ball. I watched JJ on every single play, never took my eyes off of him and the man worked so hard. If you ever want to see what a one and done looks like who has “unpacked his bags” JJ is it. He never stopped fighting for position, he never let his man get him pinned down low, he was great at fronting his man.

      The other thing he did so well on defense is his 4 blocks. First off he should have had 5 but one was called a foul and the replay showed a clean block. The thing that can go unnoticed if you just look at the box score is that those 4 blocks lets call it 5 were not against smaller guards, 3 of them were against their 7 footer Lual-aciul, it would have been 4 against him if not for the foul. I mean cmon! that is impressive.

      Jackson made his impact on offense w 16 however it took him 14 shots, most on the team, but his biggest contribution in this game was his effort on the defensive end!

      Oh and I almost forgot, Jackson pulling off his man to double the shooter in the last few seconds was great defense as well.

    • World games impact on this years recruiting class

      I just joined this sight…be easy on me if this has been a topic recently discussed.

      I am very excited to have Bragg this coming season and as we know there are still top prospects unsigned. What is everyones opinion on how the added games of the World games this summer will help recruiting?

      If I am a top ranked player with KU on my list and im looking for one school to set itself apart, what better recruiting tool for Self than to be able to say to these kids, you get 10 extra games this summer, against great competition and by the way every game is on espn2!

      What top recruit who has nba hopes wouldnt love the idea of more games on TV when no other college players are getting to play?

      IMO, this is one of the greatest recruiting gifts Self has this year and I expect another top recruit or two to committ.

      What does everyone else think?

    • RE: Uncommited recruits...

      @crimsonblue22 I dont think it changes much, however good bad or neutral, I’m jazzed as could be that Kentucky just lost with “the best recruiting class of all time”.

    • RE: Final KU players in the NBA stats.

      I saw a special on BMAC last year that showed he moved somewhere close to 20 family members out to Sacramento and takes care of all of them. I would have loved for him to stay as well, but I do like hearing how he has such a big heart for his community and family and he is one early entry that I understood and he showed us why he choose to leave. Glad he is putting his millions to use and not wasting it like so many others do.

    • RE: It's Venting Time

      I am either overly optimistic and when KU gives me no reason to be I am overly sarcastic. To be optimistic, we yet again won another title, 11 in a row, we have a great kid running the point for two more years, we have extra games this summer, and we have a coach who runs a great system, the system however only works with the right players. Ellis is not a true big man and LL was never expected to contribute starter minutes. Cliff was a bust of a big man for more than one reason and the High Low works best when you actually have a threat inside to throw down low to. I for one am proud of this team, always love to watch KU play, and will hope for better things next year, especially inside. I think we are more than good w Mason and Graham, SELDEN @KUSTEVE lol, and Svi. Here is to another off season of anticipation and checking recruiting sites way too often and hoping for big developments from LL, Jamari, and HM!

    • Kevin Ollie to OKC?

      I heard news on SC that Kevin Ollie may leave UCONN to be the head coach of OKC, I then went to 247 sports and noticed their top recruit Jalen Adams a 4 star PG had KU high on his list after UCONN per the Crystal ball. I think we are pretty set w Mason and Graham but I did find this interesting. If Ollie leaves would Adams be able to transfer?

    • RE: Bill Self - cost us the game?

      @chriz I wondered this too, this is how the NBA handles it most times, they get more TO’s but if I remember correctly Self didnt use a lot of TO’s

    • RE: Bill Self - cost us the game?

      @HighEliteMajor This is what I have been spewing on twitter! What kind of coach(s) allows a kid to ever shoot a free throw like that? Thats the question I want Self to answer. They have had two years almost and this is the form they came up with? If aint broke dont fix it, well it is broke so fix it!
