@SlimShaddy54 Roy left.

@Jhawk69 Historically, KJ has not been a good rebounder. But he’s been trending up over the season, rather significantly.

In the 3 games before he got hurt, KJ averaged 7.7 rebounds. It’s disappointing it’s taken this long (4th year), but if he can keep up this pace, and average 7-8 boards per game here on, I think that would reduce a lot of the criticism he’s been receiving.

I’m not smart enough to figure out how to upload an image here: 

But the increase in his rebounding rate looks nice.

Oops, that was a link to here! Here’s the link to the box score with +/-

All the starters are +9 or better. All the bench is negative.

Does anyone have the +/- stats for the Jayhawks? I’m curios what Storrs would be.

-8

Rare Kansas turnover. I like that phrase. The rare part, anyway.

@approxinfinity said in Looking forward to Hilton:

Anything that forced Bill to play Bidunga increases our chances of a win. Sorry KJ.

Until he fouls out.

@SlimShaddy54 Shak only played 9 minutes. Not sure why he didn’t play more.

KU has 0 Pts in the Paint. Cinci has 12. We should fix that.

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.

@Crimsonorblue22 said in KU vs Cryclones Game Chat:

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.
