    • RE: Some team stats through 8 games

      @drgnslayr Self addressed the minutes factor during a presser this week. He would like to play Frank 30-32 minutes but if he has to go with 4 guards for long periods there is no way. If played the whole game, there are 160 minutes to divide between 5 players which is 32 minutes per.

      One thing he talked at length about is holding down minutes of activity outside of the games. They currently do not go through scouting reports on the court. That is done with everyone sitting. He also mentioned cutting down on some reps in practice. His point was that the number of minutes played in a game is not the only factor determining if players get run down.

    • RE: Pot and Its Impact on BB IQ?

      @HawksWin You do know that marijuana is not the same as opium, don’t you? You are obviously a student of Chinese history so you must know that the opium war was fought because the English wanted to sell opium to the Chinese and they did not want it.

      Maybe you should try gardening. Don’t chop off your foot with a hoe.

    • RE: The worst trade ever?

      There are almost no NBA analysts who think that Kevin Love is going to play for any team other than the Cavs next year. Opting out is a charade. It is strictly for business. Those who can opt out including LeBron simply want to sign 2 year deals and probably with the same teams. The big money is going to come in the 2017 season when a new TV contract will kick in. At that point a max deal now will seem like chump change.

      The CBA also expires in 2017 and the players want to get more than the 51% that they get now. No one is going to sign big free agency contracts now. Any agent who would recommend signing big now should be shot.

      Joel owned Randle last night. I wouldn’t be surprised if he takes Randle home in checked luggage.

    • The Mayor Was Out Coached

      I was sure I would see something along these lines before but nothing.

      It appears that the Mayor was handed his a$$ last night by Scott Drew of all people and at home no less. The point was made endlessly by the color man that using all of his timeouts to stop ISU runs won the game. Along with Kenny Chery. Also note that this was done with Rico Gathers sitting on the bench. We should put a lot or credence in what the color man said since we believe them whenever they opine that KU should launch 3s.

      Drew went with a smaller lineup of 3 pt shooters since Gathers wasn’t doing much under the boards. He took probably the only player that has a sniff at the league out of the game.

      The Mayor on the other hand kept having his players chuck up 3 pointer after 3 pointer with little or no success. Niang couldn’t hit the proverbial KSU bull in the butt with a scoop shovel. What was working for them was Niang going inside, drawing defenders and passing to McKay for dunks. But no that wasn’t good enough since ISU is known as a 3 point shooting team. He also couldn’t prevent his players from making turnover after turnover at the end. What was he thinking?

      Everybody here seems to love the Mayor for adjusting to his players strengths and not running a system. Did we see that last night. No we did not.

      Maybe things really are as simple as the fact that it is very hard to win in the Big XII either at home or away. Maybe every coach doesn’t go from a genius when they win to a dolt when they lose. Who knows?

    • RE: Is ShoeCo the Unidentified Company in the FIFA Bribery Case?

      I was obviously mistaken about people agreeing that politics should not be on this board. I have never been the first to talk politics although I have answered other people’s posts. I don’t mind if others want to go down this path. I would suggest adding religion to really keep things hopping.

    • RE: How About Going 39-1 and Winning an NC, But Never Winning By More Than 5--Would That Be Being Schooled?

      @Crimsonorblue22 A win may be a win for UK, UNC, or Dook. It is not that simple at KU. At KU a lot of people consider it a win only if it is by 30 points playing the people who I know should play and running the scheme that I know should be run. Actually it is rather more complicated than that. Scoring fewer points than the opponent is also a win if it is achieved by playing my players and my scheme.

      Very good information Lumpy. My only complaint is that you didn’t have my picture as one of the people from South Dakota.

    • RE: Just call them Devil Dogs.

      @BShark If you had Fran muted then you missed a comment that explains much about our winning at the Octagon of Dumb. That is the fact that KSU and the fans get so pumped up to beat us that they play very tight. He claimed that not only was this the case last night but it is usually the case. Sometimes you can want something so badly that you get in your own way to get it.

      Great posts again. One person you missed was Roger Sayers. He was Gale’s brother. I saw him at the 1963 NAIA track championship in Sioux Falls. He was extremely fast.

    • RE: Several update issues

      I have had problems with scrolling back past a few screens of comments when I select the last post rather than the post that starts a thread. This happens on the latest versions of Opera and Chrome. The scrolling works fine on firefox but I haven’t been using that much lately. I use Windows 7 by the way.

      My only real complaint about the update is that the names of the posters no longer appears on the recent or unread pages. We do get the avatars but there are only about 8-10 or so that I can remember. Some people also change their avatars rather regularly. The times that a comment was posted also does not show up for anything less than the last day. If I am reading a long thread that I have not read for a day or two (what else could I possibly be doing with my time other that reading kubuckets) I start at the end and scroll back until I find a time that I haven’t read.

      Other that the scrolling, the items I mentioned are small potatoes. Thanks approxifinity for all of your good work.

      Unfortunately for them there will be more that a few disappointed kids after all things shake out. Some of those people do not have a good grip on reality.

    • RE: Big night for Frank Mason 111-BIFM

      @wrwlumpy You almost took the words out of my mouth. JoJo has always been my favorite guard at KU. Now he has been replaced by Frank. I never thought that I would see another player who was so mature both on the court and off as JoJo. Nothing ever seemed to phase him. Frank has the same type of maturity to run a team; however he has something that JoJo did not have in college and that is his ability to shoot.

      Now I just hope that Frank can have the same kind of success at the next level. Frank will be a success at whatever he does because he has unbelievable drive. I don’t believe that he envisioned winning awards like he has. I do believe that his self-confidence and drive did allow him to see himself as able to play at the level that he has achieved.

    • RE: FRANK WINS THE OSCAR ROBINSON TROPHY!

      @wrwlumpy Yep. I used to get seats on about row 5 or so since I worked in AFH. It was great when the cheer leaders kicked. It was a field house with the floor being dirt. The indoor track went around the court. The raised court was put up before the bb season and taken down afterward.

      @hawkmoon2020 If she thinks KC was bad, the 1968 regional was at AFH. Unfortunately it didn’t do us enough good.
