Griffen was the second highest scoring guard to come out of his class in 2022.

Look at this team! Mayo!

Griffen is a bad man.

Bill has lost control of this team Mayo’s trey proved it.

I just can’t get used to knowing we can shoot well,

Wissox your score prediction was excellent.

@jayballer67

I didn’t know that.

Another pull it out at the end games from the new Phog. Zeke, Juan, Hunter Thank you. KJ had one of his I’m here but where am I games. Zack goes in and somehow gets zapped by a cattle prod on every move. We have some work to do like get back on defense for starters. Hunter is still out of sync so he will get even better. He is tied with Jokic in the hops department.

Did anyone play that half? I missed it. I didn’t think our slowly toss the ball around the horn offense could get any slower but it did thank you very much.

Another disaster to end a half. NC got 7 points and MSU 4. One team came to play.

@wissox I like the 78 points as a winner. MSU always seems to play on the edge of dirty and tries intimidation. So far the KU guys seem really focused on themselves and are talking to each other. Now Hunter will go in as the bad guy. He seems really aware of his team during the games and he would use any crap to his advantage.

Hunter defending the last play of the game and running to Self and an old school double five between them. Bill wanted this one. Watching the highlights for the fourth time and noticing one team played chippy and it wasn’t us. I could see the excitement from our studly bench guys and this team may have come together a bit. Spent a couple of service years in NC and very nice people especially Kinston but of the college towns the best action was acquired in Winston-Salem where lots of tobacco was grown and a uniform was an asset. Michigan State game will be it’s usual war.

@patoh3

Yeah official. Didn’t look like a freshman.

Mayo with FT’s a jumper and the assist to Hunter in the last little bit. Player of the game with 21 points.

Four down with 3 min to go. Outscored them 9-2 after that. Nice

@patoh3

Did we have that many in any 10 games last year.

Thy pissed Hunter off on that last foul call on him.

Bilas shut up please.

@DanR He’s not into it.

Needed that!

We couldn’t have butchered the end of the first any worse and now we need to get past the first 5 minutes of this half.

What I am hearing from this board is we can’t get in front of driving guards which is partially true and has hurt us in the Tournament and sent us packing against AR and Nova but most teams can’t get in front either. The hammer in these games is you need a rim protector and board workers who limit second chances. The big guards who are downhill players like Divincenzo would have a tough time against KJ who can stay in front of them. We have Flory and Zach who are instinctive shot blockers. Zach is long and aggressive and no fear. I know we give him little respect but I think he will hold his own more often than not as his minutes allow him to blossom. KJ is a real athlete and is better and better in the lane however he is not an elite ball handler but a a sneaky good passer. Zach, Shak and Zeke. And just because Jamari acts like he is lost he will factor as a defender and sneaky rebounder. There is just way too much on this deep squad with an actual tough ass bench. All players want to be on the court and we may actually see Juan being rested. Self didn’t have a choice the last two years but we can hammer the eff on opponents heads all year. Self wants to assuage his ego and romp ass. I want blood and as we said in the Corps “Killing’s our Business and Business is Good.”

@jayballer67 That maybe was Wilt’s national title game against the Tar Heels. The triple overtime one. Played at the old Muni in KCMO, 1957. Frank McGuire coached against Dick Harp.

@drgnslayr

We should run ourselves when we get turnovers and missed shots. I know Hunter is good at quickly making the outlet pass. We have speed this year.

I know I had mentioned my grandnephew an AA RB out of SDSU. He made the Jets final 53 man roster as the #3 rb and is one of the two deep return guys on kickoffs. Also he is on kickoff coverage every time. #32.

I watch some NBA games now. I didn’t watch at all for years and it is all about the 3 ball. The Celtics put up over 40 attempts a game with Tatum attempting 11.6 and shooting 37%. Our basic offense was to put Gradey or Furphy in the corner over and over and play 4 on 4 against a packed in defense. We were bad at treys and our record suffered as a result. I don’t think we will see that this year and then we will become hard to guard all over and since Hunter and KJ are above average passers we are going to be a high scoring team. Juan might average about 9 or 10 dimes with all our scorers or so I think.

Outside of the inherent evil taking over in January there is a much more damaging result set loose with Project 2025 courtesy of the Heritage foundation. Sad day at Black Rock.

@dylans

Good deal and I hope you enjoy it. You could get a rainbow afro wig and a John 3:16 tee shirt so maybe we could pick you out.

We have some on good ball defenders. Storr certainly is.

Zach attack!

Mayo putting on a clinic.

@Crimsonorblue22 said in Howard Game Thread:

Just need to pass more

OMG

Houston had a better first half than we did 52 - 13.

This is the longest Zach has been in a game since highschool.

@wissox

Really?

Here we are, well I’m here and you all are somewhere else. So many new players for us to tear down or the reverse and I mean I am a master of overreacting so that’s what I bring to the table and as a preseason Board MVP contender I will post stupid shit all year. I did vote early and hope you all vote too.

I do not know who will win but it will not be a good idea to storm the Capital again.

Just watched the Washburn game and you know if spell check is stumped it’s not a well known team. I found myself trying to nickname our offense and came up with the PAC-MAN or just plain corn maze. Let’s just say we haven’t jelled yet and I hope we can fairly quickly because of the big time games coming soon. It was amazing to see how a team that had to reach to score 70 points last year breezed to 84 just by hitting three pointers. Washburn played pretty good defense I thought and Ballard looked in control of things which is nice to see. The two man trap on our point guards worked effectively three or four times.

@approxinfinity

You ain’t dissenting with me. His rim finishes were improved a lot. He was smooth and Boogie pissed him off and that is when he started playing downhill. Our shooting was abysmal and our man to man got torched by the Hog’s bigger guards. I guess our offense will be get it inside, inside, inside. I think we can be a big time alley-ooping machine if Flory realizes he needs to be ready every time. Zach didn’t play very well but he was the only one who seemed offended by the over the top physical stuff and pushed back. Flory needs to drop into the rim protector position because we will see a lot of guards in the lane.

Goodnight and take an aspirin.

Still playing hard.

Eff you Boogie.

Bland has been best man so far.

Flory will kill Brazille

@BeddieKU23

With KJ as our go to man on offense is what it is in this game.

@DanR

I can’t find it on plus. ESPN owns SEC Network. The quality on the SEC Network’s games is a little lacking with B team announcers and fewer cameras. IDK if that will be the case tonight.

@jayballer67 They will do things like agree to press at the start of a quarter for 5 minutes or both play zone.

SEC Network waiting for the women’s VB to end.

Nikki Hiltz the American 1500m olympic trials winner is transgender and in the Paris Olympics. Hiltz was born female and cannot receiver gender affirming care including testosterone to be able to compete. The East Germans doped up their men and women athletes with steroids and dominated the Olympics with 519 medals with 409 in the summer games and 110 in the winter games. I see that we are retesting weight lifters samples from past Olympics and one year they retested for and they took away the gold medal and declared the next medalist the winner and then guess what? They went down to about 14th place to get a final medal awards.

This is America and so it’s always about the money.
