Coit started. I kinda like the fact the 5th starting spot isn’t settled. It’s between Storr, Griffen, and now Coit. Whoever practices best gets to start next game. Nice incentive.

Wow, nice pass

“Let’s try to spin things positively for Duke”. ESPN doesn’t even try to hide it.

ESPN is so disappointed.

Wow

@wissox giving them their instructions

Nice D juan

Flory is a Freshman. Too excited in this big game.

@BeddieKU23 Maybe there’s a reason for the demotion

@stoptheflop Leipold said he’s done that in a game 3 times (QB kick). Not sure if either of the other 2 were at KU. He said two of them have worked out really, really well. They practice that every Thursday since he’s been a head coach.

@kjayhawks I agree. He was 9th in minutes today.

@kjayhawks Hmm, he’s almost there. Clemence won’t be one of them, and Shak is still limited. That leaves 9: today’s starting 5, Storr, Coitus, Passmore & Bidunga. Once Shak is full speed, I guess he’ll have to make a decision, but he seems pretty close already.

kohler with the flush. bilas made a toilet joke.

Bidunga and Hunter in together. Haven’t seen that often.

Bill Self just tied Phog Allen for most wins. Wow.

Harris and Bidunka were working that one together. Very cool.

@stoptheflop KJ has 10 pts in 9 minutes. Love the assist from 5 to 4.

I think it’s still 0 in basketball. Up to 4 in football.

@wissox I’ve been waiting for a chance to use that!

Bidunka!

I think Mayo starts. He got benched as a lesson to shoot more. He responded favourably, so I think he will be rewarded.

Gradey is averaging 21 points a game this season so far, after 8.5 last year. He’s really stepped it up in year 2.

@Crimsonorblue22 Dave Stewart. Their rapport is good.

@BShark Yes, Gueldner is a gem. Straight talk with just enough snark to be hilarious.

@Crimsonorblue22 We’ll see Monday.

@Crimsonorblue22 I was looking too. Maybe because it’s an exhibition?

@BShark More Bidunga! That’s fun to say.

@Crimsonorblue22 That’s true. But you’d think we’d still get to the paint more against a D2 opponent.

8 made 3s is nice. But seems like we should make more 2s against a D2 school.

@Crimsonorblue22 Thanks, trying to catch up.

I didn’t get to watch the last game, so my first time to see the new guys in action.

I care!

I wouldn’t have guessed Wilt has the KU record for free-throws made in a game (18). Wonder how many attempts he had to get that?

There may be a way for international student-athletes to earn some NIL, with passive engagements that don’t require labor, and so don’t violate their student visa. It’s just a matter of getting creative. I’m sure KU Athletics has some pretty creative folks.

His brother Marcus was even better.

coaches for cancer

Thanks. Good for them.

Why did the coaches dress up for this game? Jackets at least.

We got 2 bench points!

@kjayhawks No other school had Wilt.

@BeddieKU23 Remy did great in one post season, but for overall impact, I wouldn’t put him in the same category as the other 2.

@kjayhawks said in KU vs UCF Game Chat:

Just read this is the second sellout in UCF history while playing in this building

Welcome to the Big 12.

I also took my kids there to see the Harlem Globetrotters, when Mike Lee played for them. Screamed for him when he was introduced as a starter and they said he played at KU. It was a small afternoon crowd, pretty quiet, and my kids were embarrassed. But Mike pointed at me and gave me a big smile. That was fun. My kids might disagree.

I went to a couple of games in this arena when Marcus Jordan (Michael’s son) played for UCF.

Yes! He was something.

Remember when UCF nearly knocked Duke out of the NCAA tournament a few years ago? Came really close, twice, should have won. They had some freakishly tall player. Not athletic, but nearly 8 feet tall.

@wissox said in Eastern Illinois. 344 Ken Pom KU #5:

@nuleafjhawk only the throws are free my friend the points come at much cost

Syracuse 2003 still hurts.

@FarmerJayhawk said in Anyone else feel this way?:

Idk I’m a big Ben McLemore fan. Who would’ve stayed longer with NIL.

He was also here 2 years, after redshirting the first year due to eligibility questions. Not the typical 1-and-done because he sweated in practice for a year without the glory of the spotlight. So I’m a fan too.

@Crimsonorblue22 I think they meant the whole event. Self said the game raised about the same amount.

@stoptheflop Illinois said it raised more than $1 million for the Maui Strong fund

@kjayhawks said in Beat KState! Beat KState!:

So does Ballard lead a drive into history books or does he throw another pick?

I would have preferred the other one.
