All-Time Great KU Hoops Game Nobody Talks About
I figured that some of us could use a break from the controversy about a technical foul being called on a technical foul. So here is a reminder of one of the greatest games of KU basketball history even though our fanbase rarely brings it up. Enjoy:
-
RE: Furphy out for Friday's game vs Yale
@Texas-Hawk-10 That would not be the sole reason but Timberlake is bad enough to cost us a game that we would have won otherwise
-
RE: Furphy out for Friday's game vs Yale
@BeddieKU23 We play down to Yale-caliber opponents.
-
RE: Furphy out for Friday's game vs Yale
If Timberlake gets too many minutes we could lose this one. Jamari and Jankovic need go step up

RE: Andy Kotelnicki
Have the bridges between us and Brent Dearmon been irreparably burned?
-
RE: Andy Kotelnicki
Does anyone know whom we might replace Kotelnicki with if he does go to Penn St?
-
RE: Anyone else feel this way?
I probably will never stop watching Kansas basketball. Maybe I won’t be as invested as I once was but I will always watch. One thing I will say is that it is a great disappointment knowing that neither Furphy, Elmarko, nor McDowell will be a Jayhawk next year as they will all either declare for the draft or transfer. It used to be fun to watch the freshmen and look forward to their futures with the program but that aspect of college basketball really doesn’t exist anymore.

RE: Jalon Daniels health
Now it is time for a new question. Who will be next years Jason Bean? As much as I like Jalon as both a player and a person, two years of experience have proven that he is too injury-prone to have a realistic chance of being a full-time starter. With Bean moving on, we will need another good backup who can step in and win games for us assuming that Jalon is injured again next season. Cole Ballard? Will the recruit from Michigan be ready as a true freshman next season? Or do we find someone in the portal?
-
RE: The Qustion been going around/debate
Didn’t Jalon have another setback? I don’t think its likely that he comes back this season, let alone this week.
-
RE: Some People will spew out anything, who actually believes this BS
On a somewhat related note, who is the QB of our future after Jalon leaves and does he suffer from injury issues?
-
RE: IARP update
I mean, I don’t think the NCAA can play God and change the past. Sure they can force us to censor the records but we know what happened in 2018. UK is now number 1 all time according to the censored records and we are number 1 according to what actually happened. Sure, I’m a little upset we aren’t number 1 in both anymore but I’d rather have the latter than the former.
-
RE: IARP update
Read a GEM of a comment on Rupp Rafters: "If this would have been UK, we would have been buried.
DEAD. AND. GONE."
Yeah, UK and coach Cal are completely clean. The NCAA definitely hasn’t been turning a blind eye to them or anything.
-
RE: Jalon Daniels health
I’m guessing KU was only favored by 2 initially because of the possibility that Daniels might be out
-
RE: whats up with our Espn late night feed ?
I think the problem is that it is ESPN+
-
Jalon Daniels health
Does anyone have any updates on his health? It seems like the staff is keeping mum about it. Should we expect him to play against UCF?
-
RE: Arterio Morris
In general I’m in favor of second chances but a second chance at a place like Kansas was not what he deserved. With his baggage he needed to drop down to the mid-major level, pay his dues, play well, and keep his record clean for a year, then after that returning to elite college ball could be an option. Allowing him to play for us after the past he’s had sends the wrong message.

RE: 2024 Recruiting
@FarmerJayhawk Those who believe strongly enough in the philosophical views of Fyodor Dostoyevsky could be said to “like adversity.” However, this all comes down to which specific emotions that one registers qualify as “liking” something.
-
RE: Arterio Morris
Does anyone know, seeing as we just lost another scholarship player, if we are looking to add anyone else to the roster for depth?
-
Luke Grimm
He exited the game with an injury. This is a HUGE and potentially devastating development and it is surprising that nobody is talking about it. Has anyone heard anything?
-
RE: Let's play ball guys /Kickoff
I’ll give the second half a B+. Hopefully Daniels and Grimm are okay.
-
RE: Let's play ball guys /Kickoff
I would give that first half an F. It barely escapes F- territory because we are still winning and we were playing with a backup QB. Overall a terrible performance, stuffed on 4th and 1 by an FCS team, terrible third and fourth down defense, and the one positive (tackles for loss) will almost surely go away once FBS play starts. Hoping for a better second half and rest of season, but its looking like we are back to being a 1-11 or 2-10 caliber team as of now.
-
RE: 2024 Recruiting
Most likely it means Flory thinks he can come in and take the starting job from Dickinson. Luckily for him, Dickinson is unlikely to be around to show him otherwise
-
RE: TBT
For those of you who don’t have espn+ you can listen to the game on Sports Radio 810
-
RE: TBT
Is there a way to listen on the radio? ESPN+ is as reliable as ever (ie not at all)
-
RE: 2023 Season Predictions
My guess is a 4-8 season. We will be competitive in most games but we got a really tough Big 12 draw (no Houston, no WVU, no TCU) and I think our 3rd down conversion rate will drop from last year.
-
RE: 2024 Recruiting
Back in the old days this would have been a good class to grab some 4-year program guys that we can develop patiently. Unfortunately there is no point in doing so anymore as they will transfer away
-
RE: Early Hearings TM
“Self loves (player X)” translation: (player X ) is a very good player and Self, because of his elevated understanding of basketball, recognizes this and chooses to play him accordingly.
-
RE: Best KU game you've been to.
@FarmerJayhawk Nice. I was also at the WVU game where we were down 14 with under 3. Is that the one you menat?
-
RE: Off-season starting lineup ever changing thread
The following my my guess of the rotation and minutes:
- Harris (32 mpg) / Morris (8)
- Morris (18 mpg) / Elmarko (11) / Timberlake (11)
- McCullar (23 mpg) / Timberlake (15) / Elmarko (2)
- KJ Adams (22 mpg) / Marcus Adams (9) / McCullar (9)
- Dickinson (32 mpg) / KJ Adams (8)
In games where we have foul trouble we will see Braun, McDowell, or Johnson get minutes as well.
-
RE: Transfer Rumblings
Are we going to get any transfers then or are we going to just have three open scholarships next year?
-
RE: Transfer Rumblings
@rcjhdraft Yeah its pretty crazy to advocate for waiting to see a player play before judging his abilities.
-
RE: Off-season starting lineup ever changing thread
I suppose if we can only use players we know will be on the roster next year my guess at the starting lineup would be Harris, Elmarko Jackson, Nick Timberlake, KJ Adams, and Ernest Udeh. However, with Udeh’s foul problems he will only be on the floor 10 minutes a game, meaning a more common lineup will be Harris, Jackson, Timberlake, Marcus Adams, and KJ Adams. Of course, this lineup WILL change with the portal so the posts now are meaningless outside of having fun shooting the breeze. Maybe we won’t get our most desired targets, but we will get a couple players who will compete for starting roles.
-
Yesufu and Remy
I know this is probably stupid and is definitely a knee-jerk reaction to 1 game, but a little part of me wants Yesufu to start taking Remy’s minutes. I know Remy is probably the better player but it seems like we need Yesufu’s defense more than we need Remy’s offense. Thoughts? Am I as crazy as I feel?
-
RE: 2021 Transfer Talk/List
@BShark I see. Then wouldn’t that put us at 13 scholarships even if Ochai, Jalen, and Remy all pull out of the draft?
-
RE: 2021 Transfer Talk/List
@Texas-Hawk-10 I see. But isn’t it true the Mitch doesn’t count against our scholly total?
-
RE: 2021 Transfer Talk/List
If Och does want to come back is there any way we could get Kyle Cuff to reclassify again?
-
RE: 2021 Transfer Talk/List
@BShark Then UK is getting both TyTy and Wheeler? I have also heard Davion Mintz is likely returning, so it seems like they will have a lot of pgs.
-
RE: 2021 Transfer Talk/List
I would really like to see us go after Brandon Mahan from UCF. Just entered the portal and was a very efficient scorer last year.
-
RE: Sahvir Wheeler
To chime in on a positive note, it looks like a lot of his issues point to bad coaching. It makes sense, because Tom Crean is one of the worst coaches in CBB. Better decision making, better knowledge of the playbook, and a little more hesitation to just let the threes fly and he could be a very solid player.
-
RE: Coach Leipold
Does anyone have any leads on who the coordinators/assistant coaches will be?
-
RE: Starting 5 for next season
I am not seeing Braun coming off the bench. He got a lot of minutes last year and if his shots start falling the way we know they can he could have a great season. My guess at the moment is Harris, Braun, Ochai, Wilson, and Dave as the starters with Yesufu, Thompson, and Christin Bishop as our key reserves.
-
RE: KU 2010-2020 Decade Team
@BShark Ahhhh in that case put Devon in his place. Then I suppose Josh Jackson is the first guard off the bench. I would also put Perry Ellis as a key reserve. Very underrated for how good he was on both sides of the ball as a senior.
-
RE: KU 2010-2020 Decade Team
My starting 5 is: Frank Mason Sherron Collins Devonte Graham Thomas Robinson Udoka Azubuike My top bench options would be: Devon Dotson and Marcus Morris. I strongly debated switching Devon with either Devonte or Sherron and switching Marcus with TRob.

RE: Schedule
We do know now that we will be playing Tennessee in the BigXII SEC challenge. Thoughts on that game?
