@drgnslayr yes his rebounding the last few weeks has been solid. I personally like that Gradey will be in the Kansas record books as a OAD. That’s not an easy feat in this era of college basketball. I think he can drive home the nail on being the greatest OAD in KU history this postseason. To me only Jackson is in the conversation, it stinks Joel was hurt because I think he was leading us to a FF but that’s life.

Even 2 wins seems to be a stretch at this point. Lets see how the coaches and players respond.

@rockchalkwyo not articles but books, I have several on Phogg and the program in general. The jayhawkers movie is accurate I’m told.

@kjayhawks said in Mike Gundy and OSU: @Crimsonorblue22 @mayjay is it fake? It’s on ESPN. @Texas-Hawk-10 I agree with your assessment. I think the link you posted must have gotten redirected. When I clicked on it, there was nothing about Gottlieb, just the true story about their actual discussions. (Try it, it must have been changed!) I thought you invented the fake list, and Crimson called it a joke but I thought she meant by you. Sorry about the misunderstanding.

This is nice, I’m anxious to see how they handle it. Qualifications. Very nice! Hope it catches on to other schools.

Devon needs to be prepared to spend a lot of his first couple of seasons down in the G-League. His speed and athleticism are elite even at the NBA level so that alone will intrigue franchises and buy him some time to develop. I know quite a few of people have said he needs to work on his shooting, and he does, but that’s not what will get him to stick in the NBA. There’s two areas that he can develop and become a 12 year NBA player. His passing and his defense. Dotson needs to become a floor general. If he can get himself to a 3:1 or even 4:1 Assist/Turnover ratio, Dotson will be a highly sought after player. Dotson’s quickness also means he has the potential to develop into an elite level defender in the Pat Beverly territory. In a stronger draft class, I would say it’d be more advisable for someone like Dotson to return, but as weak as this class is, Dotson’s stock is as high as it will get for the NBA so leaving this year makes the most sense for him.

@justanotherfan yep, the packers and Seahawks were both supposed to be the next dynasty but neither could do so.

I like Braun’s demeanor, his expression never seems to change and while figuring out the flow I think that he just understands the game - you know, knowing the shot clock, the ebb and flow and what is needed. In short, he steps up and doesn’t shy away.

This one is one of my favorites and not one of the more well known, “But it is not enough for me to stand before you tonight and condemn riots. It would be morally irresponsible for me to do that without, at the same time, condemning the contingent, intolerable conditions that exist in our society. These conditions are the things that cause individuals to feel that they have no other alternative than to engage in violent rebellions to get attention. And I must say tonight that a riot is the language of the unheard. And what is it America has failed to hear?… It has failed to hear that the promises of freedom and justice have not been met. And it has failed to hear that large segments of white society are more concerned about tranquility and the status quo than about justice and humanity.”

Oklahoma wins in overtime 30-23, they really kept Baylor in it with turnovers and questionable play calling. I’d say it’s on LSU to get the conference back into the playoffs for a third straight year.

OU outscores Baylor 31-3 in the final 2 and half quarters to win 34-31. Baylor had their chances, two second half turnovers and a two drive killing drops.

@justanotherfan No question, he probably ends up with over 1,000 again this season. I could average 4.0 yards a carry behind Bamas line lol.

Think he’ll put in his son?

@jhawk7782 ya I would say Todd Ressing injuring his groin in that game was a big factor in our tail spin and sweet Lou’s drama. I’m worried about too much optimism at this point. People are already whispering bowl game. People were saying the same after we whipped Rutgers a year ago. I’ll say it the same as I did then after our lone loss was to Nichols, I just cant see dropping a home game against that bad of a team and making one. We needed that win badly. I would say we have an outside shot at one of we can finish these front 6 games 4-2. But it’s hard to predict 4 conference wins for a program that’s had a mere 6 in the last decade. 4 wins is still doable and a solid improvement for a first year coach.

@justanotherfan agreed, interesting I’ve never met a KSU that wasnt arrogant. I do think KSU will be solid defensively tho.
