KJ played the best game he could possibly played and we lost because the guard group is horrible

I’m more excited for this season than I was for last season. I was pretty sure we had no nba guys and we were running back a core that still had horrible fit problems. We got the potential #1 pick on our team this year and a bunch of athletes. Tons to be positive about

A ranked win without DP is shocking. Credit to the guys

Never speak of this game again

need that revenue can’t afford to be left in the dust with the big 12

Not taking much from the game other than Passmore and dajuan looked good and KJ looked like KJ, aka non spacing forward who’s a bad fit with the star pieces on the roster

@wissox said in Peterson:

That’s all well and good, but when he doesn’t lead us to a national championship and bolts for big bucks I’ll just yawn. Maybe it will be fun but I’d much rather know the next Jalen Wilson or Devonte Graham of TRob was coming! Maybe they are coming too.

This program desperately needs Peterson. We’ve been stuck with senior holdovers for the last 2 seasons and they’ve been incredibly underwhelming. Peterson has the potential to be the best guard in college basketball and the best guard in the nba, and he’ll probably be the face of the program in the NBA since Embiid is cycling out his career. You need upper echelon talent to survive

@wissox said in Peterson:

Embiid, Wiggins left college with a 2nd round exit in the tourney, of course Joel was hurt, but we lost a lot of games that year with them. Josh Jackson played on a more complete team with us I think and we made it to the sweet 16.

TBH honest I don’t care if he’s the face of the program for the next decade in the NBA. Does nothing for us.

The only way I’ll really be impressed if the young man is good enough to lead us to a championship. Maybe he is. Can Self build around him well enough? IDK.

yeah man I totally disagree. Him being successful in the program is huge for future recruits and for public perception. Coaches can point to him as a success story for going to kansas, like how they’ve used Embiid for all of the bigs recruiting for the last 10 years. Guys like Jalen Wilson and CB are totally fine NBA players but they aren’t needle movers like darryn might be.

Tiller’s flashes are insane

Hilariously awful game from bean. That one play where he could’ve just ran upward for the first down and pushed it to the side sticks with me

Best win in ages

Can’t believe what I’m seeing. Elmarko and Jamari being playable is a miracle. Hell they’re straight up good today

those rothstein times are mountain time zone

@kjayhawks yeah we’ve lost to them both times. Third time’s the charm?

we’ve played Tennessee in Maui, Atlantis and now probably Vegas all within the last 5 years

Seems like we got a good shot at top 4. Kohl’s garbage time dunk pushed us ahead of Iowa State

I’ll appreciate every win we get without DP

Flory is a DUDE

I forgot that point difference matters for this
