Darryn F'n Peterson

Council may not have started his career as a Jayhawk, but his actions against Missouri amd KSU show he's fully bought in and been converted into a true Jayhawk.

Always nice to remind little bro that they're little bro.

@stoptheflop Peterson not playing tonight is probably a big influence on that line along with KU being 2-3 on the road and 1-2 in league play this season.

Most importantly, hope Bill makes a full recovery from whatever this is.

Who's going to be in charge tomorrow night? Is going to be Case since he's the associate head coach, or does Vaughn get his crack at running the show?

I kept mentioning how we haven't seen the complete DP. He looked at 100% in this game!

Peterson still isn't 100%. His burst and explosiveness still isn't there yet which is why he the projected #1 pick.

KU has only committed 3 turnovers so far tonight.

That Darryn Peterson kid might end up being a good player.

Hilton Magic has nothing on the Phog!!

@wissox83 except weve only played 7 guys

Surprised we haven't seen any of Rosario tonight.

Can we get back to a 4 guard line up like the 1st half?

I like this line up better than the 2 big line up with Flory and Tiller.

Where the hell has this defense been the last couple of weeks?

@bskeet said in Kansas Jayhawks vs TCU Horned Frogs Game Chat Tues. 1/6 8:00 CT:

I think it's worth taking both Flory and Tiller out and see if they can handle speed at every position.

If we can't rebound, it won't matter. That's where they're killing us. -11 on offensive rebounds is the difference in the game. We're shooting 54% from the field, problem is TCU has taken 19 more shots than KU to this point.

Seems like I was wrong about the defense being good. Can't get a stop in league play.

Defense hasn't been terrible tonight. It hasn't been great either, but I won't complain about a team shooting 40% from the field. This team can't rebound for shit tonight.

Rebounding has been atrocious tonight. Someone needs to challenge Flory and Tiller's manhood to get some rebounds. KU has 1 offensive rebound and TCU has 12. No reason TCU should have 18 more FG attempts at this point.

I will also add that Melvin Council is absolutely Tyshawn Taylor, good and bad. He no showed the first half, microwaved the second half, and committed a stupid foul that cost KU a chance at the end of the game. That And 1 was one of the most brain fart fouls in recent memory. You're down 1 and you trying to catch up on a breakaway lay up. Don't foul unless you can prevent the made basket in that moment and Council didn't do that. As great as Council was in the 2nd half, he also absolutely cost KU a chance to send the game to OT as well.

I think we saw the result of this team not playing a game for basically two weeks. They just looked off today. I think next season, we need to make sure we have a buy game the week between Christmas and New Year's against a localish team like UMKC, Mo. State, Omaha, SEMO, or someone like that.

@wissox83 said in Conference Play Discussion:

My study of the conferences is done by looking at ESPN on my computer (easier to do on computer) and click on "Standings". It shows every conference and their records. It also has each teams records against ranked teams. So I start counting ranked wins.

Big12 has 13 ranked wins collectively, with Arizona leading the nation with 5. We've only got 1 while losing 3 against ranked teams, but of course the DP absence factors into that.

The SEC has 9 ranked wins. Vandy is 13-0 but has a super soft schedule.

The Big East only has 5 ranked wins with UCONN securing for of those, so pretty weak otherwise.

ACC has 11 ranked wins, BIG has 15 so I guess they lead in that category, but they all have 2 conference games already so that skews that data a bit.

What's interesting too is that no other conferences have any wins against ranked teams except Gonzaga has 4 ranked wins, but no other team in their conference has done anything. In other words no mid majors or low majors have any big surprises.

Your last paragraph is courtesy of the portal and these low and mid majors not being able to retain those players.

NIL hasn't been awful for football as it's created a bit of parity, but has been absolutely terrible for college basketball.

@kjayhawks2.0 I think that means he'll play!

Next question is, full game or not?

Next question, since it's on Peacock will I be able to watch it? @beddieku23 thinks any old fool should be able to watch it without subscribing, while I guess I'm an old fool then.

NBC brought back their NBCSN sports network so check your channel line up to see if you have NBCSN and you may not need a Peacock subscription to watch the game tomorrow.
