@kuballin10 You really shouldn’t listen to your uncles cousin sister anymore. She has led you down a very dark road of bad KU ball info. May god have mercy on your soul :<

@RockkChalkk said in Oh No Huggins:

Here we go… someone said a bad word, thank god we have so many social justice warriors able to come to the rescue of all us fragile people that cant handle it and make sure this bad person is punished as if he is the flesh and blood of satan himself.

Wait… are you seriously suggesting that what he did was appropriate? How would you feel if Bill said that? It’s not just a bad word my man, it’s a slur being used to attack a group of people. His statement was ignorance at best and malice at worst…

KJ and Juan. Huge.

Death. Taxes. Kuballin10 complaining.

all in good fun guys. Have a great Friday. Hopefully we get good news this afternoon, if not, next man up.

@jayballer67 said in KU/Big 12 NBA draft decisions thread:

Mercy seen in a draft off CBS that had Ochai going # 7 to the Kings. Mercy , now come on be honest who in Earth would of ever thought Ochai would EVER have a chance to be drafted that high when he 1st stepped foot on Campus?- I figured he would be solid/good but projected at # 7 ? - Jumpin Gee Hossie Fats Maynard.

Also saw they had Christan as the # 25th pick going to the Spurs - - Awesome

That’s awesome! Hopefully that holds. It really speaks to Och’s work ethic and how much he improved during his time here. Also, what a cool story for a Kansas kid out of Burlington who lead his HS team to 3 straight state titles, a natty, and now he gets a chance at the league. So jealous (I’ll just blame my bad jump shot on being 5’8" 165, right?..right…?)!

Definitely gonna miss both of these guys. Especially Christian’s fire. I loved seeing that from a Kansas kid!

I want one more year of Furph :< and to have him in opposite corners as Liam raining 3’s…

@FarmerJayhawk fair enough. All my “friends” are too busy being adults with their wives/families. Gross, right?

Edit: kidding of course all Happy Thanksgiving Jayhawks.

Long time lurker here, but I couldn’t stay silent any longer. Those above me who feel booing their own team is ok, that we should immediately fire our coach, that our players don’t care, etc etc - just stop. It’s people like you that I never go back to that other site as it runs rampant there. Win, lose, we are Jayhawks. I’ve been a fan since my dad took me to the Phog as a little guy and fell in love with it all. Went to school there for 6 years and camped for every single game. Had great wins and hard losses, but that’s part of the game. I completely understand it’s upsetting, but to target and boo your own team? Sad. Hell I think leaving early is sad. You know this is wrong and if you don’t, well, you’re just another privileged fan KU has so many of.

These guys bust their ass all year long. They clearly played hurt today, show at least a modicum of respect.

Sorry for the rant and I hate that this is my first post… just something I’m passionate about. Rock Chalk.

I don’t think I’ve ever been so disappointed to see us land a recruit/transfer, let alone a former 5 star. To be fair I don’t know the kid or the situation extensively, but ugh… def not excite about rooting for someone accused of his deeds. I guess this gets filed as one of those moments we trust Bill and the staff! I must admit I was kinda excited about the possibility of that Quaker entering the portal (Dingle), but this seems to seal that deal. There is still a lot that can and will change before June. Hopefully we get some good news early next week!

Sorry if this has become a sore subject lol, just letting my feelings out in my safe Jayhawk Tree (before I go back to lurking ^^)

@BShark I know it’s a pipedream, but I’m hoping to have Hunter fill the 2 spot. I know he is also a smaller guard, but he was a great defender last year and was a huge part of ISU making it as far in the tourney as they did. Bill has shown he loves having two primary ball handlers on the floor at the same time, but I’m not sure how Hunter feels about sharing PG duties with Juan. From what little I’ve heard, Tyrese wasn’t sold on the idea of playing with Juan, but I don’t really know.

If that doesn’t work out, then maybe Malachi Smith? Terrific rebounder and a go to bucket getter. I haven’t seen him announce any kind of list of interested parties, but I’d be very surprised if we haven’t reached out already. This of course would mean someone has to be shown the door unfortunately, but Mosley + Hunter/Smith would be at the top of my wishlist.

@BeddieKU23 Man is gonna look like father time if he holds to his no “shaving stance until punished” stance.

@BeddieKU23 said in Morris Dismissed:

I disagree wholeheartedly that this was handled by Bill and KU well. To each their own opinion though.

He was brought into the school and into basketball program before his previous case had resolved. A day after everyone got lucky the case was dropped, he was suspended from the program for the Rape Allegation and is now charged with such.

There is no way you can convince me this was handled correctly. Try explaining to the victim and the family that any of this is okay.

Texas Hawk 10 isn’t suggesting that the act Morris committed is okay, just that the way Bill handled the ordeal was handled about as good as you could given the circumstances. Do you really think Bill/KU are “okay” with any of this? Come on. We can all continue this tired debate on whether Bill should have or should not have given Morris a second chance, but this was Morris’s action and his alone. Horrible situation all around and my heart goes out to the victim. Thank goodness he is gone.

Quick Edit: The script could also have flipped to where Morris gets his head straight and learns how to be a better man under the staff here. It unfortunately didn’t go that way, but Morris only has himself to blame for that.

We definitely played to their strengths tonight, but credit to them. Plenty of things to work on and improve and I wouldn’t trade our coach for anyone else.

Jayhawks for life right???

I am sad.

Rock chalk everyone, unfortunate that this season played out like this, but you gotta play the hand you’re dealt. I for one look forward to Harris’s last season. Hopefully we can have better luck in the portal!

We need more D2 players

Because Juan is carrying us.

@wissox had that calming timely 3 in the first half too.

@kuballin10 It’s like watching the Grinch’s heart grow two sizes in real time. Figuratively of course. Cardiomegaly is real bad

@Crimsonorblue22 said in 2022 Transfer Portal Thread:

@PharmacyHawk glad you’re back!

Oh, I’m always here. I just generally stick to reading than posting, lol. I will say it’s incredible that you remember me! That was quite some time ago!

@kjayhawks said in Crap on Jeff Grimes thread:

@FarmerJayhawk I thought the pay was really good maybe @PharmacyHawk knows better. My sister in law went to the Pharmacy school and had been a pharmacist for 20 years. Her husband doesn’t work and they live 500k house and drive brand new vehicles so I assume they are doing plenty good. She does end up working 6 days a week most the time.

It’s certainly not bad at all, but as Farmer references, I wouldn’t call it great by any means. Especially when most pharmacists suffer from horrible working conditions and experience burnout in their first few years out of school when they are just digging themselves out of $110k+ student loans.

I never went into this degree with money being the focal point. It’s nice, sure, but my goal was always to help people and I didn’t want an MD’s hours lol.

Edit: I also don’t want to completely derail this thread, but having to abide by people who have absolutely zero medical knowledge (insurance companies) or the costs of modern healthcare, makes you jaded REAL fast.

He’s a Jayhawk now. I’ll support him and root for him unless he gives me reason not to, no different than the other players.

@jayballer67 said in Transfer Rumblings:

Sooo , if we stay with One Scholi and we do happen to land Hunter- - then who is our four guy ?

KJ/Marcus Adams I’d guess?

Love KJ to death , great energy, yet mercy the kid is gonna have to bust his ass over the summer to develop some kind of an outside shot and work on his rebounding habits - -no way is he a 4 right now - hoping nothing but the best for KJ - work , work , work.

I hear ya, but without adding a SF or another wing that’s all I see. He has proven he can defend multiple positions and he is a strong, hard working kid. Similar numbers to when Kevin Young was here. Effort doesn’t always show up on box scores, but you always need that guy. Hunter can keep the defense honest to a point, and if you ever needed Udeh in there you could swap to Marcus for his shooting. Just can’t have KJ and Udeh in at the same time.

@Kcmatt7 said in Morris Dismissed:

No, Bill Self recruited a known predator to campus. And he should be scrutinized as having done so. How he handles the situation is irrelevant, he created the situation in the first place.

Take the inevitable settlement check out of Bill’s salary.

That’s not going to happen, nor should it, but hey bang on that righteous drum all day my man.

Good lord that’s awful…

@Kcmatt7 said in Morris Dismissed:

@PharmacyHawk What is so righteous about the stance? We are acting as if Morris had gone 10 years without any issues and this 2nd chance was well-deserved.

His first case JUST settled. This entire thing was slimy and greasy AF. The fact that the decision came down to DePaul (who has a total greaseball staff rn) and KU says a lot about KU.

I said this all the way back in July that if Bill is willing to take him on Bill should be willing to bet his job that he won’t do anything wrong while here. That is how sure he should have been that Morris was a changed man.

Bill will face literally no consequences for having recruited a rapist to campus and I’m supposed to just shrug my shoulders? Do you really not think Bill deserves ANY criticism for this?

Hey man if you want to condemn the coaching staff and Bill go for it, you can do whatever you’d like, I really don’t care. It isn’t gonna change a thing for me and my support for this program.

Look through my history, I said in April I didn’t like it, but I trusted the staffs judgement. My stance on their judgement hasn’t changed because there is simply too much information I do not know and nothing from past decisions changes my mind. Morris had an incident with sexual assault, which I honestly skimmed through, but it sounded like a lot of immaturity at the time - NOTHING that read as omg rapist.

And yeah, I don’t think he deserves any criticism. I imagine the guy is probably pretty damn upset with himself and the whole situation. You can shrug your shoulders or not. You do you.

@FarmerJayhawk It truly rings of - “Well shit. After this long we gotta do something!” To me.

Nao can I has Passmore plz?

@kuballin10 I feel like you should spend less time coaching from your couch and more time learning what reading comprehension is

@BShark probably the wildest non tournament day I’ve seen in a long while. Heck, if Colgate would’ve hung on you would’ve seen #1, 2, 3, 4, 7, and 12 fall today. And we aren’t done yet.

I’m channeling my best scared Michael post

Had the game been called appropriately we wouldn’t be in this position

That’s the most insane flagrant 2 call I’ve ever seen. I’m not kidding. The officials allowed this crap to fester all game and now we get to deal with an abrupt shift.

JWill had to leave the post game to throw up.

Real talk though, Hunt has to be smarter.

@SlimShaddy54 the stat line doesn’t come close to his energy and moxy tonight. He was an absolute force.

@wissox One win away from evening up the all time series.

Edit: off topic but Auburn looks good. Hyper athletic.

@bskeet Hunt was hacked all night. I do think he started to force the issue, and the “kick” may have been out of frustration, but egregious and worthy of ejection? No shot. The aftermath where the officials tried to reestablish control where they actually started calling fouls pissed me off more to be honest. I hate when you call a game differently half way through.

It may have worked out in our favor in the end though. Flory got some great big time minutes and the team responded. It may end up being some of that identity and resilience a team searches for.

@jayballer67 Nah - Wiggs/Selby were both #1 overall.

@BShark said in Transfer Rumblings:

Did not want him anywhere near Lawrence Kansas. He can rehab in Chicago.

Thank goodness. Now it’s a wait-and-see with KU v UK on Hunter.

@PharmacyHawk Whew.

@approxinfinity said in Transfer Rumblings:

The year Bill paid for the pro subscription….

I’ve had a rough day, but that got a laugh out of me. Thank you!

@Jhawk69 As Jayballer said, just means they get to be embarrassed when we take it from them a second time.

@kuballin10 It does seem that way, yeah, which I can’t blame them. Griffin was a stud at Bama last year. But after having absolutely zero depth I want all the depth plz.

@BShark It has been foretold. We shall fulfill The Prophecy.

@kuballin10 I never even hinted at such a thought, so really your comment made no sense, let alone sarcasm. I look through the comments, you just love putting words into people’s mouths over and over. Enjoy watching these games alone I guess.

@cragarhawk good… for you I guess? Here’s a cookie.

@kuballin10 You’re totally right man. Seeds really dont show any kind of consistency… If only you were on the staff! Man. That’d be something. Hey, Kentucky may have openings soon, you could probably lead them to more consistent success!

It’d be nice to see alittle more composure from veteran players. This includes Hunt clearly getting uber frustrated and letting it affect his game.
