    • RE: Silvio And Malik

      @truehawk93 KU doesn’t have to be the best team in the tournament, just the better team on floor 6 times.

    • RE: Has Bill Self Lost This Team?

      @Kcmatt7 Self knows exactly how to coach young guards. They just don’t become finished products right away. Mason and Graham each took until their third years to become elite guards.

    • Marcus Garrett

      Marcus Garrett has signed a free agent deal with the Miami Heat. The last two Jayhawks who played with the Heat won NBA titles (Chalmers and Simien) so maybe Garrett continues that trend.

    • RE: 2018 Kansas Jayhawks Football Recruiting

      KU and Beaty need to do everything in their power to keep Tony Hull because as long as he’s at KU, that pipeline KU now has into New Orleans is going to stay open until for KU until Hull is no longer here. Louisiana is just an entirely different culture from the rest of the country and these guys aren’t joking about the family atmosphere having a huge influence on their decisions. I know @wissox and anyone else including myself who have spent a significant portion of time in Louisiana will 100% back up this claim about the loyalty of Louisiana people being accurate and Hull has the loyalty of HS coaches and players all over the New Orleans area specifically.

      Landing Tyriek Starks was the beginning. The connection with Hull was made during this recruitment because Starks played at Warren Easton under Hull. Reggie Mitchell then leaves for Arkansas and KU has a need for a new RB coach. Beaty takes a calculated risk by bringing in Hull in an attempt to get some players out of Louisiana. Almost immediately, Hull gets commitments from Mike Lee and Malik Clark (Clark is also from Warren Easton) and then gets Lee to enroll a year early at KU. In his 1st year, Hull also lands Travis Jordan and Takulve Williams both from the New Orleans area as well. In a little over a year on the job, Hull brings in 4 Louisiana players, one of whom gets a chance to play early. Getting players from Louisiana to visit KU is a big enough deal which hiring Hull allowed KU to at least talk to players in Louisiana. Seeing Mike Lee emerge on the scene however is a game changer for KU in Louisiana. Without the success Mike Lee had last year, KU does not land any of the Louisiana recruits that committed yesterday, at least not early like they did. They probably go home and tell their younger teammates about how nice KU is and that keeps the line of communication open with Louisiana prospects for Tony Hull. Lee’s success is a game changer because it shows these kids that they can come in and be successful very early on at KU instead of having to sit and wait behind other 4 and 5 star guys at LSU.

      If Daylon Charlot comes in and has early success and if Tyriek Starks wins the QB job, the floodgates will be fully open for KU to talk to any recruit in Louisiana they want to and to have a legitimate chance to sign those players as well.

      What KU did yesterday in getting commitments from Jason and Harris (3rd and 4th best players in Louisiana with offers from LSU, Alabama, and basically everybody in the SEC) is something that has definitely caught a lot of people off guard including everyone who follows KU football. We knew Hull would allow KU to talk to some players out of Louisiana, but to actually land commitments from players the caliber of Jason and Harris is something I don’t even think Tony Hull thought was possible at this stage in the game.

      Don’t be surprised to see KU land possibly 3, maybe even more recruits out of Louisiana this year. Warren Easton has a couple of 3 star prospects who we know Hull has a relationship with and there’s a DE out of Baton Rouge that KU is the favorite to land.

    • RE: How a 16 defeats a 1

      TCU is significantly better than any 16 seed KU will face. Whatever league KU’s 16 seed comes out of, TCU is good enough to go undefeated in that league.

    • RE: Stop telling me Lightfoot is...

      Lightfoot is also playing way out of position as well. He’s being forced into being a low post player on both ends of the floor when he’s never had that role before. The guy is a stretch 4 and is being exploited in major mismatches because he’s never guarded the position before.

      Clay Young has been better on the defensive end because he was a post at his JuCo even at his size. He understands the role and what’s required of the role much better than Lightfoot does.

      I’m not going to rip in Lightfoot for this because none of it is his fault. He didn’t make Coleby transfer, he didn’t make Whitman transfer, he didn’t make Preston sit out because of a car. We all know Lightfoot isn’t ready for this role, but he’s the only option at this point.

      This situation is why Self is trying to get DeSousa enrolled early and it’s why Sosinski was added to the team. KU needs to work on developing Sosinski over the next 3 weeks which KU only has 3 games during that stretch. Work him into the rotation this week, let him make his debut against Nebraska, give him some big minutes against Omaha as a trial run, and if that goes well, let him sub for Azubuike against Stanford and see how that goes before Texas on the 29th.

      If the Preston situation gets resolved in a positive manner by that time, then swap Sosinski out for Preston. Either way, KU needs to find a way to get Lightfoot back to the stretch 4 spot because him as a low post player doesn’t work.

      Graham absolutely willed this team to victory in the second half today. Really didn’t think this would happen about a month ago.

    • RE: Poor Silvio

      @Gorilla72 West Virginia is 8-9 this season. They are really bad team this year and they’re going to be without Konate again I believe so they won’t have any rim protection. This is Huggy’s worst team in a long time.

      @bskeet What happened to SDSU in 2020?

      SDSU and Dayton are the two teams I would’ve been curious about in the 2020 tournament. Dayton especially because they were tracking to be a 1 seed that year.

    • RE: NCAA NON- KU GAMES

      @benshawks08 said in NCAA NON- KU GAMES:

      @wissox I view UConn as kind of the anti-KU. Where KU has the consistency, UConn has the titles. Their down years can be pretty down.

      KU’s lowest win total since 99 is 21 (in the 20-21 year). UConn has had 11 (ELEVEN!!) seasons where they didn’t reach that mark in that same time frame.

      But they have 4 titles and we have 2 (boy that second one helps!). Also, I find it interesting that they’ve only been to the Final Four 5 times (now 6). Meaning when they get there they tend to win the whole thing. They certainly seem on track to do just that again this year. Comparatively, KU has 16 final fours overall winning it all 4 times. KU has been to the final four 5 times since 99, winning it all twice of course.

      Was it just HEM who wanted to trade resumes with UConn or were there more on here that would prefer their recent history to ours?

      KU’s been to 6 Final Four’s since then. 2002, '03, '08, '12, '18, and '22. The KU-UConn debate is a good one because there’s valid points for both schools about which one has been more successful over the past 25 years.

      @Texas-Hawk-10 It was the right call too. Ugly game, nothing pretty, I wasted my time watching!

      It’s San Diego St., they play a very slow tempo, very physical style of basketball. They’ve never been a fun team to watch under Fisher or Dutcher.

    • RE: Welcome Elmarko Jackson!

      @BShark said in Welcome Elmarko Jackson!:

      @kuballin10 We’ll see what they do in college. I’m just excited to have a guy of this level at PG again.

      Does he ever actually play PG here would be a question worth asking. I assume Harris will still be the lead guard most of the time. I ask that because there’s a couple of sites out there already projecting Jackson as a borderline first round pick in '24 draft.

      Also, does Harris have 1 or 2 seasons of eligibility left?

      This game is going to end on a foul call. I’m sure Creighton’s fans will have nothing to say about that.

      Hype season is fully underway.

      I mean I think he’s the best guard in the class so 🤷

      Oh he absolutely is, he’s special. The reports from the McD’s practices are glowing.

      I wish my schedule would let me go watch the game on Tuesday.

      I would’ve loved to have seen what Self would’ve come up with against UConn. Their 3 point shooting is what’s carried them more than anything else this tournament. I still think our defense would’ve been able to give UConn major issues.

      CBS Sports said Kansas State has now lost 8 straight Elite 8 games.

      Longest such streak by any team in NCAA Tournament history (last win was in 1964).

      They are now 4-10 all time in the Elite 8.

      Rely on starters tho, no bench, same as Men’s team

      no your wwrong , they have some really good bench pieces

      They pretty much only go 6 deep. The team averages 73 ppg and the starters account for 63 ppg. Their bench doesn’t provide much.

      eh I don’t necessarily agre about all that. I still think their bench is adequate - I’ve watched everyone of their games and haven’t been disappointed in their play

      This was a team that was expected to finish top half of the Big 12 and make the NCAA Tournament with a fairly high seed. The lack of a bench was a big part in the failure to meet those expectations and why they’re in the WNIT instead.

      not going to arg–their bench is very doable. - -Chatzileonti -Avg 26.6 pg game 5.9 rpg- Mayberry part time starter - -part time bench - -pretty dam good. Strom decent. A big reason also was when Kirksgeiter went down and missed time-some other like always was poor Coaching- I for one am very happy with how the bench has helped - -they gonna be fine

      Chatzileonti hasn’t played since mid-January. Mayberry has started 28 games, and became a starter in game 3 and started until she got hurt against TCU in the Big 12 tournament. She was not a part time starter. Holly Kersgeiter missed 3 games in February due to injury. Strom was the only bench player playing good minutes this season once Chatzileonti got injured amd she has averaged 2.7 ppg this year. That’s terrible for being the only bench player playing real minutes (17 mpg).

      In KU’s last 15 games, they’ve got double digit points from the bench four times. They also had four games where they got 0 points from the bench. 5.5 ppg from the bench isn’t good no matter what you think and that’s what KU has gotten from their bench in the last 15 games. Lack of a bench is why the ladies are in the WNIT instead of the NCAA Tournament and why they couldn’t beat 1 win TCU in the Big 12 tournament.

      lmao- -yada yada yada – sounds more like the mens bench then the ladies-thanks for your input

      Go look at the actual box scores if you think I’m full of shit about the women’s bench contributing basically nothing.
