Went to the game. Wasn’t expecting a win.
But LL should not finish the season unless something major changes next couple of weeks.
I appreciate what he did but he isn’t a P5 coach. Playcalling was a mess. Decision making was even worse.
Disappointed but not mad.
McComb 13/13 3TDs 234 yards against Holy Cross.
Only KU would have both QBs get hurt in one play
Been burned on the blitz about every time tonight
Shockingly entertaining game for there to be no scores coming from the offense yet 1.5 quarters in

I’d say Isaiah get one more drive then you have to pull him those 5 yards just cost us 3 points
I think you gotta just let him get all the reps this year. Let him learn, if he’s going to be the QB for two more years after this
Based on what do you think he is a multiple year P4 quarterback? Yes, work through some mistakes, but he has to show something??? Thus far, Simmons
looks a lot better and he's just 19...
You haven’t seen enough to write him off. So I think you have to assume he’s the future and you let him get experience in the big moments until proven otherwise. Not like Ballard has proven anything either.

We’re so lucky Mizzou is doing just as stupid if stuff
I was criticizing the decision to punt but that uhhh well that was a great punt.
Gonna need a few breaks to win anyways. That’ll be in the C’s head all game. Signed a former C
I thought they kept playcalling purposely bland to keep things hidden for next week.
I still hate the quick no huddle near the goal line when you don’t do that anywhere else on the field. Got a false start on that, and we’ll do the same thing 5+ times this year guaranteed.
Marshall was the right guy to start, but there were balls thrown that are turnovers against real opponents. He will have to be better next week.
Edward’s looks good in this offense and will break a few this year.
Defense was stout, but not saying much considering the opponent.
I expect us to do much of what we did last year against Mizzou. Play close enough all game, but just get warm down by the end. Need the offense to either score almost every drive or have a lot of sustained drives that eat up clock.
Looked like a 5+ win team to me though.

Wahoo 6-0 silly to go for two but okay
They did it to waste Mizzou time to have to prepare for it. Nothing more than that.
Finished top 30 so he move on in the playoffs as well.
Gary is age 42, but is still one of the top 10 longest on the tour. He could play for quite a long time still providing his health continues to be okay.

My guess is the last roster spot will go to a veteran, undersized, break glass in case of emergency point guard in the vein of Diggy and Ngala
I’m hoping that Bill is targeting an NBA Draft guy and has a contingency donor ready to pony up for the right guy.

I think there is a chance Kohl starts. This is just a thought I have been having lately. He started to begin last season as well so the staff clearly sees something there, and with the way the roster is constructed it would make sense to start him or Parker to stagger the PG minutes a bit. Otherwise you kind of run into the problem KU had last season in starting their only two bigs albeit at a different position.
Kohl is starting. Kinney off the bench barring a huge offseason for him and he adjusts well.
Genuinely think we may see Dawes start at the 5, and the two bigs get 10 minutes a piece.
Had 23, 10 and 18 against UNC, South Carolina and SMU respectively. Seems to be a good rebounder.
Wasn’t the most efficient those games but a sign he can score at this level.
Wouldn’t say he isn’t athletic but he is no Dawes. If I had to guess he would be a backup to Dawes.
Rotation is going to be interesting. I imagine we see a lot of Dawes at the 5 with how this is shaping out.

@crimsonblu22 yep. I went for a bit, it was pretty low key.
But is low key what KU's program needs to improve fan support and our image to future players. I can't imagine a great athlete seeking out a low key program. I'm afraid KU is satisfied with a mediocre, low key football program. I don't see any excitement about KU football.
I think they’re doing fine. Focus is on the field not the other stuff.
Stadium renovation is going to bring plenty of excitement. A win in London to start the season will get the people going.
