Does Brad Underwood really have Illinois in the top 10?

How did OSU let him leave? How did KSU not go after him harder?

@Kcmatt7 They have an insane roster. Steam rolled the first two games, but now are playing a slightly better opponent.

The Dons lost to UMass Lowell River Hawks by 8. Oof

@BShark I know we really wanted Dosumnu

Not sure how much, I think the staff got their top two guard targets that class (Grimes, Dotson). Imagine Dosunmu with Dotson last year...

Trash ass UVA style means they can lose to almost anyone.

Well so I saw - - Baylor going to play this weekend after al. - -They are in Las Vegas for 2 games, flew into Vegas last night and going to play Saturday

I would have lost my mind if the refs in Ill Ohio called that a charge. You can't punish Kofi for being big.

How does Drew have covid and none of his player do?

Grimes with 17 so far. 1-6 from 3

Oh please let UCLA lose to Pepperdine.

Unreal the best coach UCLA could get to take that job is Mick Cronin

UCLA seems to be a black hole.

Double OT!

There are NBA PGs at Pepperdine and Ohio. That's insane.

@BShark said in Non-KU Games Thread:

Why is that insane? Look at where some of the other top PG's in the NBA played college ball at. Weber St. (Damian Lillard), Murray St. (Ja Morant), Boise St. (Spencer Dinwiddie), Wichita St. (Fred Van Vleet).

The answer is $$$.

Investigation

@Texas-Hawk-10 I’d venture to guess that being a top 25 team and packing the arena would have been worth the extra funds...

Not when OSU was under NCAA investigation and ended up with a self imposed postseason ban this year.

OSU was not an attractive long term option at the time and they weren't looking to spend a lot of money at the time to keep Underwood because of that investigation.

KState Colorado game is interesting.

@Kcmatt7 Underwood left after making sure that Okie State was going to be on probabtion 😂 The guy can coach, though. What he did at SFA and Okie Dokie was no fluke.

Coppin State hanging with Duke!!!

Through 4 minutes...

Duke has turned the ball over 18 times at the 12:00 minute mark in the 2nd half. That's like our game against Duke last season, except they're playing Coppin State.

Coppin St is 332 on KenPom by the way.

@KirkIsMyHinrich where is that game being shown at buddy - -what channel ?

ACCNX which I don't think many people have. You might be able to watch through ESPN's website.

@KirkIsMyHinrich You know, he might very well transfer next year. And with the way that he is playing while not improving, I would be fine with that. I mean, the guy is a junior... He completely kills the flow of the team.

@Marco - -McCormack not gonna transfer anywhere , we gonna be all right

@jayballer67 he might, if he becomes a disgruntled benchwarmer. And I trust in Bill, we'll be solid this year. By the way, you were right about Wilson.

Ya nova lost in overtime i think it ended up 81-73. - -So in this opening week , # 3 -# 4 - - & # 6 all lost top ranked teams.

@BShark maybe he should ask Self for some Self-help or Self-perspective and also get some casual dressing ideas from Bill and team. 😎

@Crimsonorblue22 lol nice.

All I really meant in the other thread is we have a Nova type roster. :p

JRE is a good player but he really doesn't like playing defense from what I've seen.

@BShark just kidding you, I hope u know me by now!

Richmond giving Kentucky all they want. ISU fuckin blowsssss.

Kentucky has a 17-6 FT advantage at half and their fans are whining about officiating. I've never seen a dumber more entitled fan-base than Kentucky's.

So who is this one ESPN announcer color commentator ? - Man can he have his nose any more buried up Kentucky's rear ? - - he praising a UK kid for going after a rebound like no one ever has done that before - - it's all Kent Kent lol mercy

I guess that's true too - -they called it a sell out at Kentucky , I was wondering about that for KU if we would lose our streak for sell outs but I guess that's right f you buy all the tickets that's offered it's still a sell out - so our streak will stay in check

uh oh - -Cal lol

lol - - wish it would last. Not impressed so far from what i see from Kentucky. - -i mean ya athletic but still not that impressed - - - so far

Kentucky picking up charges on drives and now settling for bad midrange shots.

They haven't hit a 3 yet? Nuts. Hope we are ready to rebound

12 point lead! Rupp roh

oh Callll lol. - - me too buddy we have to hit the Boards. I know he hasn't showed in 2 games but I think this game against Kentucky we need Dave for rebounding if nothing else. I think i our smalls match up ok - -if we can come close to what we have been shooting on the three we be ok.

They having trouble taking care of the ball 18 turnovers - -richmond 6 - that tells a lot

Kentucky usually has problems with shooting 3-pointers. They'll probably make a bunch against us on Tuesday.

@approxinfinity said in Non-KU Games Thread:

Yeah, ironically this year they are not a great match-up. Old Self teams would have feasted.

long ways to go - -but I think I can see why Kentucky not rated as high as normal - at this point

Weird to see a Kentucky team not well coached. SHOCKING. /s

Here come the fouls on Richmond. Once again I am shocked.

Some of these calls.

Refs are making sure UK wins.

Probably harder to beat a team that's coming off a loss, but who cares. Go Spiders.

oh dam - - up 12/13? now look out Cal lmao. - -Unless they just call fouls every single time and Richmond works some time it's gonna be a hard road lol.

Like 4:27 to go work the clock . oh I can hear the UK fans now lmao - -these dam refs not calling anything - -lol - -Richmond fouling every time lol - - uh oh Cal

@KirkIsMyHinrich said in Non-KU Games Thread:

Richmond hasn't even played amazing, just forcing UK to take jump shots basically.

here we go - - he picked him - - FOUL LOL

Refs are not going to take this big Richmond lead lying down.

AND AGAIN

Officials overtly favoring Kentucky. Kentucky, however, cannot make their free-throws.

ANOTHER FRICKEN CALL

Ball game

B - - A - -L - -L - - -G - - A - - M - -E - - Cal - -refs or not

Are we Small ? - -Dykes thinks so

👀

You would think eventually Cal would recruit some guys that can shoot.

@BShark he played a TIGHT rotation today. Weird.

well we shall see how this plays out Tuesday

@BShark You would think.

To be perfectly fair here, Richmond is not a bad team. They received 40 votes in the pre-season AP poll. They'll be ranked when the next poll is released.

Kentucky did not look good, though.

Man that's got me worried buddy. - -Gonzaga had 2 guys in quarintine for it - -now St Joe - -not good

You want a sure recipe for a loss ? - - You shoot 20 more free throws then your opponent - you have 23 more rebounds then your opponent , BUT you shoot 37 % from the floor - -you put up a goose egg from 3 point line - -you have 5 assists BUT 21 turnovers - and shoot 60 % from the line - -that's Kentucky' line for today

I knew the Kentucky fans would implode - -their board is some funny funny right now, people saying time for Cal to Go - -others saying tell people to calm down and being responded to with we have haven't been to the final 4 since 2015 - -line after line after line - just going nuts. - -People saying Kentucky where all sport athletics come to die lmao/

People talking about if they play like this Tuesday how we will steam roll them - -not sure about that but still funny stuff.- - -People saying they think Cal loses a game on purpose just so all the 40-0 talk will stop lmao - -gotta love it

KU women up 61-27 WITH 2:37 left in the 3rd quarter

Just wrapping this up guys - -KU women win 85-43 Final. - -I'm not excited we know how this goes. - Great non Con then struggle in Big 12. But I will say I think we will do pretty decent and hold our own in some games this year

He has had a lot of elite shooters

Interesting thing to monitor with Baylor. So far it appears neither 4 star freshman big they signed in this class are apart of the rotation. It's Thamba starting and the transfer Tchatchoua as his backup. Seems to be their main weakness as well

Surprised Kentucky lost today but I wouldn't put too much into that impacting Tuesday. Their frontcourt guys scored 23 pts, 25 reb, 3 blocks which terrifies me in the matchup on Tuesday. The law of averages says they are not going 0-10 from 3 again. We could try and pack the lane and force them to make outside shots, not sure on that strategy. KU's key to victory is to score points.

Not really all that impressed with their game. - Sure they have talent, but Richmond gave them fits , 10 steals - Kentucky has a lot of things to work on. - -Like was mentioned on their own Board Cal plays Askew and he acts like he wants to get rid of the ball as soon as he gets it - - people saying they don't know WHY he doesn't play mince more. - -I don't know but for today anyway I just didn't see anything that scares me. -- Sarr the transfer I mean eh - ok but I think this is one of those games where Coach said we play Dave more I think he can hold play with Sarr,

21 turnovers by Kentucky 60 % free throw shooting - -only 5 assists and 21 turnovers that's going to win you very many games they just didn't impress me today.

Not saying that they can't come out guns blazing Tuesday but I don't feel as bad about this game now - I can see why they aren't rated as high this year at this point anyways

Houston kind of taking Texas Tech to the wood shed at half - - Houston down 18 points - losing 37-19 - -that's not good

I don’t think so. UNC looks a year away. Their frontline is terrific but they’re too reliant on freshmen guards to be really good. And they can’t shoot.

Here is a news flash guys - - I think this Texas team might be legit

Walton going nuts about the soft foul calls against Texas. "I've not seen a travesty of justice like this in my lifetime".

UNC has gotten a pretty nice whistle to be fair. Walton is being a little overdramatic though.

UNC really lost the game at the free-throw line. 18-32.

@BShark 86% FG shooting. Got to be a near record. Classic early season matchup that shouldn't count in records just as our games with FT Hayes, Emporia and Washburn don't. Greenville is an NAIA school I think near St. Louis in Illinois.

Since I grew up in Illinois and have been following the Illini since 79 when they upset Magic and eventual NC, I'll comment on this game with a certain tilt, although I'm not an avid Illini fan. This is the problem with moving all over the country like I have. I latch onto the locals.

I tried to recruit Adam Miller to come to KU. I worked with his mom two years ago, met him once or twice. Mom told me he was interested in KU and U of I. I told him if he ever wanted to talk about KU let me know. Never asked!

I saw him play his last HS game against Chicago power Simeon (Derrick Rose, Jabari Parker, etc.) Morgan Park was a heavy favorite but Simeon sent some little guy out to guard Miller from the start. Super quick and he just face guarded him. Adam couldn't handle it and picked up two fouls in the first minute, then went back in in the 2nd quarter and picked up his 3rd right away. It was a brilliant coaching strategy that I've never seen.

I think Scott Drew was glad when Brad Underwood left the Big 12. He knew that he couldn't match wits with him when talent is relatively even. I think Illinois is on their way to becoming the next annual contender in the BIG.

Baylor is the best team in the big12 according to Bilas. I don't mind him but he annoyed me last night when he didn't notice that Wilson had gone out with 4 fouls.

KU has never really had the big guy that can shoot the 3 like that Illini big and that Wisconsin has basically invented with all of their bigs who shoot 3's.

@wissox now we do w/Wilson.

@Crimsonorblue22 ??

@Crimsonorblue22 Oh I see, you're calling Wilson a big who shoots threes. He's more like a small forward in my view so I guess I don't compare him to the 7 footers that have regularly been a part of the Badgers seemingly ever since the new century began.

This game reminds me of last night with very choppy offense but they're proving to be more competent generally offensively.

How???

We were probably the runner up for Cockburn. Damn he’d look good as our 5

@Crimsonorblue22 He's a small forward. He'll never be a big which is fine.

Baylor's perimeter defense is insanely good. We need to get a lot better quickly.

@approxinfinity Like Wissox said, Greenville is D3.

I think Wilson is a 4. Don't think he should actually play the wing. 4/5 is better for him.

@FarmerJayhawk Yeah he's really good, we also had Udoka still and Cockburn was thought to be oad right?

@FarmerJayhawk

Kofi is gigantic. A lot of similarities to Doke

Michigan State and Detroit Mercy tied at 62 with 7 minutes left.

Officiating is really favoring MSU unsurprisingly. Feel bad for Detroit.

Sparty held on for a 7 point win. Rocket Watts is a really good player.

Ohio State & Illinois also Cancelled today also

Kind of want to catch some of the Villanova/Texas game today. See how Jerimiah & Villa do with Texas. - Think we can get a better feel how and if Texas is legit or not - It's on ESPN think it comes on a noon

Holy Crap I had NO IDEA - - - WHAT ? - - Oklahoma Sooners playing TCU today at 3:00 ? - - WHAT ?

Was on Kentucky board snooping through and they had a post by Goodman listing games today - -there it was I couldn't believe it. - -Can that be right? - so I thought no way - - so I went to the Big 12 Conference site - - and sure enough Oklahoma and TCU playing today - - Dam

I think we need to take Ol Shaka and the boys a little more serious this year. - - Coleman is a Senior and playing well - - Ty jones is pretty nice - -good size 6'10 hitting 3's oh ya pretty nice stat on him too like around half way thru the 2nd half he was 18-19 - shoot from the filed for the season - kind of a pesky feisty group - -not a given this year

Kentucky is bad. Yikes.

@BShark on tv or app?

Not wvu

So Kentucky looks pretty bad.

This feels different than other years for them. Not sure Cal can get this roster together.

Our roster isn't the best either, but I'm glad to have Self trying to figure things out. I think we have to push small ball and I'm really intrigued to see what we look like in January.

Is UK even going to be a quality win at the end of the season?

The SEC is AWFUL this season

@BShark we would be too if Self was handed 5 top 10 recruits every year and not winning championships

this is KU yet not Men KU. - -You see the womens score ? - - I just wish they could translate this ove to some in Conference play.

Clubbed Oral Roberts yesterday 100-59, some of these stats were crazy :

30-0 run in the 2nd quarter , 66 points I think they said at the half , 66 rebounds , they shot 81 % in the 2nd quarter and finished the quarter outscoring Oral Roberts 39-3 shot 71.4 % from the 3 in the 2nd quarter.

Coach has had a couple of really good recruiting years back to back - he has just GOT to start gettng more W's in Conference - did a little better last year but like to see a little better overall in the Conferene

@jayballer67 The women are still bad and doing what they always do by beating up on bottom feeders and getting blasted by other major conference teams. Ole Miss blasted them by 17 last week.

Well the Conference got started. Oklahoma beat TCU i think it was 82-78 - -will be interesting to see how much we can get in

Had to relay this -- has to be the line of the night from the KSU game. - - The Radio announcers after the game , the play by play guys says to his partner - So who do you have as the defensive player of the Night ? - - The guy says - - drum roll please - - - - I DON'T - - you don't have a defensive player of the game ? - - - I DON'T - - - -- lol - -good night guys

If only there was some coach KSU could’ve had. You know? Alum, Kansan, all that. Totally unrelated: Illinois looks salty at Cameron.

Illinois has a high ceiling. That 15 point win wasn't nearly as close as the score would indicate.

If K-St cares about basketball you fire Weber today. If they don't that's fine for us and everyone else!

Duke, UK and UNC all looking crappy here early on.

Going to be a wild season

Coach K's laying on the floor
https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2921621-coach-k-on-playing-through-covid-19-i-dont-think-it-feels-right-to-anybody ↗

Well K-State has made the big time - -Lights , Camera. - Was on ESPN for losing to Ft Hays State - -!st NAIA school to beat a P-5 in like 20 years , showing the high lights of the game - -Squeaks said is was a sad , sad day for K-State Basketball - How much longer does Weber survive ? - -I don't think there is ANY team unity- I don't think they give 2 rats ass the players that is about Weber. - Looks like this team is abeaten group BEFORE the season really gets started - -they look REALLY BAD. - having said that you watch when it comes time to play us - -they will play out their tails way over their heads and make anything and everything they throw up

Weber is not a strong recruiter and he has a tendency to alienate some of his best players at times. That was his problem at Illinois. That is his problem now. He can have great years, but cannot sustain that because he will have lulls in recruiting and lose guys to transfer. It's a vicious cycle. He was in a similar position a few years ago before Dean Wade and Barry Brown basically saved his job. He will need something similar next season, but I don't see that type of talent on the roster now (guys likely to break out) or coming in via recruiting.

@justanotherfan

Another way of saying the program is a dumpster fire right now?

I think, and a lot of KSU fans I know agree at this point, his better players tend to develop in spite of Bruce. Where we see KU consistently develop some of the same things, the players that develop under Bruce seem kind of random. Wade even had a bit of regression his SR year. I think the list of players he has alienated is larger than the list of guys that ended up being near all league level for him.

Pack and Dajuan Gordon look like players to me. Will they get better under Bruce? Maybe McGuirl comes back for a free fifth year? I think their biggest issue is they have a ton of bigs on the roster and all of them are not very good. I don't see Bruce adding a bunch of immediate impact guys so their line-up next year will likely have holes.

@Crimsonorblue22

Of course K-St deserves him.

The Octagon of Doom! Where 0-3 D2 schools can get back on track.

There is no bigger phony in sports than coach K.

If you're talking about K's comments on why playing basketball during covid feels wrong, I actually agree with him.

But, I get the feeling he only said that because this is probably his worst Duke team since... I don't know when. Didn't he want every D1 team to be in the tournament before the season started?

ya ok, so the other is Antonio Gordon is that right ? -not sure if the name is right or not don't pay THAT CLOSE of attention to name other then Gordon - just flat sucks

@KirkIsMyHinrich

Yeah given the timing of the comments (after a 2nd home loss) with no fans its hard to see this as anything but def-tone bull crap.

@jayballer67 Yeah Antonio Gordon is the big and he sucks lol.

With few or no fans, home court advantage means nothing, so there's less of an intimidation/momentum factor for home teams. We could see some really weird results.

Also, with guys maybe missing practices/games for COVID reasons, you never know who is unavailable.

Put all of that together and you have a really unpredictable season. I think midmajors could make some noise.

Yeah I feel we have already seen some really strange results.

Was listening to my local radio sorts broadcast & they were talking to Tim FitzGerald the K-State beat writer and he said this joke that happened last night - -the last time that it happened was clear back when they were playing in Nichols Arena - -long time ago.

He said his twitter was blowing up people who in the past that would go to bat for Weber even if he had hit the family Dog - -umm not so much now. - He was talking about he was watching the game on the Big 12 ESPN plus app and he was having trouble with it - - said the dam game kept coming back on roflmao.

Then I have to agree with this cause when I was listening to the game , he said it was just like they just didn't care - -no effort - - no heart. It almost sounded like that to me also.

He said Hell K-state right now is the laughing stock of College basketball , saying every podcast they all talking about K-State - - he said hell even CBS spots had a article on them - things NOT GOOD for squeaky

Watching Texas Tech right now. So far they have pressed and subbed in 3/4 guys after a few minutes.

They have played 12/13 guys rotation minutes so far this season

@BeddieKU23 smart. You never know when a couple guys go out with the virus or contact tracing.

@FarmerJayhawk

Watched til half, looks like Beard only played 6 guys heavy minutes instead of the platoon he was using

dook opted out of their non-con schedule. Really stunning that K would do such a thing when his team is garbage. They'd be playing daily if it was the Zion year.

So they not gonna play anymore No Con? -- if that's true then all I have to say is - - K - -- -WOW - really bad look for him, bet that wouldn't be happening if they had won those two games.

Did you see what another Coach had to say about K's statements? - -he kind of took a shot at K - -pretty much saying the same thing others have said making reference that if Duke hadn't lost those two games at home.

Watch - wait -- I would almost bet the NCAA gonna be watching and looking to shut it down now - -i mean bone nose has spoken

13-point spread remains a mystery. Iowa St sucks.

K-State up 66-63 with 3 59 left and Milwaukee at the line

KSU will survive against a sub 200 Kenpom team.

That's an improvement from losing to an 0-3 D2 team. KState on the rise!

They certainly set the bar high, lol.

Bradford vs Gethro long term is interesting to track. KU could have got Bradford, but opted for Gethro.

Was watching K-States game last night & Bradford, don't get me wrong they it looks the kid is fluid to an extent right now anyways - - basically dunks last night Iowa State is just plain awful, last night anyways just a turnover machine and thing is most was unforced.

Bradford is for sure a project got along ways to go - but I think by his Jr year maybe in the middle of it - - I dunno might be a little sooner but anyone is going to look good with the other warm dog doo they have, hell ya gonna think he is the next coming , thing is with them playing us this year - - he is going to have match up problems with us if we go 5 out. - -I don't think he match's well at all trying to defend with a 5 out look gonna get beat of the dribble

Can't talk all negative though I think he will be a solid player on down the line - squeaky might have at least a little something that's if Squeaks is still there by Brafords Jr year.

ya like 33 free throw attempts somewhere right there compared to like 9. - -Not saying that was the game - -I mean 22 turnovers sure doesn't help

I hate it when basketball officials make the game about themselves by calling way too many fouls. I've turned off games when the refs call fouls on every possession and it becomes a FT shooting contest. All refs need to check their egos and realize the game is about the players and the refs' role should be minimal and not even noticeable after the game. I was just sure the refs were going to call a foul on KU when TT had the ball with 5.9 seconds on the clock. I hate the phrase repeated so often that during the beginning of a game that players need to adjust their game to the way the game is being called by the refs. BS. Let them play; that's why I'm watching.

Look at it from the other way, how r their bigs gonna guard Wilson on the perimeter? He does a pretty good job of blocking out too. Maybe get them in foul trouble? Maybe we can run the floor better?

Gonzaga, Iowa is a fun game so far. Both teams play zero defense but score at a higher level then anyone else not named Baylor.

Suggs is the best player in College Basketball. Garza is very good but Suggs is next level at the guard position

I hate it when basketball officials make the game about themselves by calling way too many fouls. I've turned off games when the refs call fouls on every possession and it becomes a FT shooting contest.

I officiated Basketball for many , many years there hardest call to make in Basketball is block/charge - However some of those calls in Tech game the other night was just pathetic - -not even close.

There is a theory about officiating and that is in a really well officiated game you will not even know the referee is there. Like some say a lot of times the referee might get caught up in the moment the atmosphere/heat of the moment and fans I understand that BUT should not happen

So turns out Gonzaga's pretty good.

So is there anyone gonna play with Gonzaga ? - -They just make it look so easy. - I would love to see Baylor and them be able to get after it. - Although honestly I think Gonzaga takes Baylor.

I know this is going to sound crazy , and may sound Bias but I think we have played them just about as well as anybody 12 points, very true it was the 1st game of the year but I would think for fun maybe get another chance. - could be a lot worse - - OR could be closer -they look really good/smooth - -Suggs is crazy good

How they were ranked is beyond me

Umm yeah Suggs

Refs really favored Iowa to keep the game closer in the 2nd half. Gonzaga honestly should have won by 20ish.

Do you all want to be Heels with me today? Would be pretty cool to see UK fall to 1- a lot more than 1

I always want Kentucky to lose and I like Roy so, yes.

Wow UNC is terrible

Luckily for Kentucky they play in a weak SEC conference, so they'll probably get some wins. They would have a losing record in the B12, B10, maybe ACC this season.

Yeah. Good to decent teams in the SEC.... Tennessee, LSU, Florida, Arkansas and...Missouri? A lot of chaff.

Bruceketball down 29 at half(!) to Baylor.

Baylor up by 30 on KState at half and KState is shooting 48% from the field. I love today.

Baylor still up 30 close to the end

I wonder if Kentucky will be better once Brooks comes back. Their issue is they lack a playmaker at guard. Clarke has not looked like a team player. Doesn't seem like Boston and him can coexist.

Anyway I'm not upset at their record. Its enjoyable

Boston isn't as good as he thinks he is and Askew just isn't blueblood level.

@BeddieKU23 Of course I watched Louisville today play the Badgers. Here's how bad it was for Louisville. With 9 minutes left Brad Davison made a 3 pointer and got fouled, made the FT. Those 4 points equalled Louisville's total for the whole game through 11 minutes. Wisconsin had them doubled with 4 minutes left.

Chris Mack is a total jerk so administering a beatdown, even if they were depleted because of covid and injuries was totally satisfying.

It takes a little luster off our Kentucky win, but they're 1-5 right now. We didn't see it when we played them, so it's a little surprising they're a 1-5 team on the floor.

Tennessee and Missouri have looked like the two best teams in the SEC this year and I'm bummed we didn't get to play them this season because it would've been a really good and competitive game.

@Texas-Hawk-10 I was figuring if that happens Self would also likely get a show cause but that's a fair assertion. All bets are off if KU gets totally hammered.

Baylor's women have won back to back games by 93 points each.

Self's rotation this year

Fancy Walk-on, JUCO, unranked wing (best player too), ex MO STATE commit, 3* white boy from OP, Jalen, a PG that can't shoot, Dave and Bryce.

@BShark I have less respect (already didn't have a lot) for Calipari after posting about Fletcher on social media.

How bad of a team cancer has Fletcher been for Cal to publicly throw him under the bus. Say what you want about Cal, but he's not someone that has the reputation of throwing his players under the bus unlike some other coaches we know. Because of that history, Fletcher has to have done a bunch of really dumb/bad stuff for Cal to throw him under the bus.

from what I was reading after their last game Fletcher made some kind of statement. - -Haven't seen what he said or anything but must have been pretty bad , he went on twitter and apologized to the Big Blue Nation saying he was sorry. - -He played two minutes in the game , not sure if he was upset about playing time or what , may have made negative statement about other players or what.

They said he was visably upset towards the end of the game. Cal asked him to step away , not leave or anything although I think in the end he will probably transfer out - I am not sure how long he is to be away from the team , will be interesting to see how it plays out

That kid is as good as gone.

Cal said that Fletcher's mom is in sync with Cal on this. Very odd situation.

Well UK is 1-5 right now , they have 2 non Con games left - - Louisville & Texas - -will they win either one ? - -Even if they split they will be 2-6 going into the conference - they are in trouble lol

We've talked a lot about the poor officiating this season. Northwestern is trying to close out Indiana in Bloomington. They're up 5 with the ball under a minute and the ref calls a carry. I mean it was, but when was the last time you saw a ref call a carry? It happens all of the time of course in the college game, but rarely call, but in crunch time, they call a carry. Unbelievable.

you know is it just me ? - -maybe it is , but has anyone else know or it sure seems like that the Media is almost just willing /begging Kentucky to pull through games - win games and get on any kind of roll do something positive , so they can talk again about what a GREAT program Kentucky is and what a GREAT coach Calipari is?- - almost just whimpering so bad for Kentucky - -about makes me sick

@Kcmatt7 I think UVA's D is a little porous this year. But yeah.

LOL, I'm on a little road trip today driving through Kentucky. All decked out in KU gear by the way. So I find the postgame on the radio of Kentucky/Louisville. It's a Kentucky broadcast. The announcer is interviewing a Kentucky player who missed a game tying shot. The announcer says in a paraphrase 'you have a nice little fadeaway jumper but you don't shoot it enough. Don't you think you should shoot it more?' The poor kid was speechless that some radio hack would ask him a question like that. I was laughing.

Also laughing as the thought of KU wins approaching Kentucky's total. Not sure of the current tally but we've certainly narrowed the gap this year and will likely continue to do so.

@approxinfinity I didn’t know UVA could even play at a pace that would allow 100 points from a a single team.

I don't think with six losses already (and I realize they were non-conference) that they will win their conference, let alone make the tournament.

@wissox Coming into this season, KU was 16 wins behind UK (2318 to 2302). KU will catch up, but it might be next year.

@jayballer67

We shall see. KU does have the protocols in place to get through the season without issue with them basically being isolated from everyone. I can't speak for what other teams are doing or what ways they are keeping things going but KU definitely seems to have an edge in how the players have their own dorm etc

@BeddieKU23 It's not the players that are likely to cause a suspension of the program, it's the coaching and support staff that interact with the players that aren't pretty much isolated in McCarthy that will likely be the issue for KU.

As long as none of the players test positive this week, I'm not worried about a player being the one responsible for an outbreak and shutdown.

@wissox The Wichita Eagle newspaper reported that KU started this season down 16 games to Kentucky but have now narrowed that spread to being down 9. The writer expressed doubt that KU could completely close the gap and take the lead, but I'm routing for it as hard as I know how:)!

Wow Turg & Maryland about to get a HUGE win on the road against Wisconsin and they got it 70-64

I dunno just watching them as a college viewer, they are pretty decent , their length , hell they put like 48 up in the 1st half against Tech I think if not 50 haven't seen the score since I came back in the room. - -Tech is the Nations 5th best defense and they only give up 58 for a game.

Thing is guys is I didn't realize and or thought Texas didn't shoot the 3 that well, seemed like from years past but they draining them tonight and this isn't the 1st time I've seen that from them in a game this year. - 8-14 tonight - -pretty decent team

It’s sad but I really do get nearly as much joy watching UK lose as KU win.

Michigan getting a reality check today

4-8 would have a nice ring to it

@Kcmatt7 eww, u sound almost like a ksu fan, they are happier with a KU loss than a ksu win.🤡

@Crimsonorblue22 haha I told you it was sad.

I just enjoy knowing UK fans are having a complete meltdown right now.

Baylor makes 3s..tough ones, luck ones, open ones

Hey there's Chris Prosthetic Beard!

Baylor doesn't do anything but flop and make lucky 3s

Tech has good offense. Shoot bad 2s after watching Baylor drain 3 straight 3s in your face

Well at least we aren't Clemson.

They have scored 3 points and there's 7 minutes left in the first half. HAHAH

Just to update the Clemson game, they lost by 35 at home to Virginia. Ended up scoring 50 points. Miracle

WOW mercy some of these games

Duke unranked for the first time in a long time. Coach K on the phone trying to cancel the season in 3...2..1..

Consecutive weeks ranked:

1. Kansas - 229

2. ̶D̶u̶k̶e̶ ̶-̶ ̶9̶1̶

3. Gonzaga - 87

4. Villanova - 32

Here are some sweet tidbits , breaks my heart. :

1st time Since 1982 that Duke AND North Carolina have not been ranked in the top 25 at the same time.- -Now you like that , listen to this:

!st time sine 1962 - - 1962 guys this is the 1st time and back in that time frame it was just the top 10 - -so even better but this is the 1st time since 1962 that Duke - - North Carolina AND BIG BAD KENTUCKY 1st time since 1962 ! ! ! ! ! , none of these fools have been ranked AND makes it even sweeter back in 1962 time frame you only had the top 10 - -even better , I probably won't be able to sleep tonight because of their lapse roflmao. - -just makes me want to cheer and you all know my cheer /quote Soooo ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

What the Hell Louisville? - - Florida St up 40-18 with 3:55 left in the 1st half - - - -DAM

An ACC game to finish before 9. Where's Zion for an interview

@KirkIsMyHinrich more proof Bill Self is the real GOAT.

Consecutive ranked streak. Consecutive conference championships streak.

Bill is pretty good. Just doesn't have the dudes this year. Lacking athleticism and some guys just aren't ready yet.

@BShark swear this team is a PG away. But I’d also take an athletic big man.

@Kcmatt7 said in Non-KU Games Thread:

@BShark swear this team is a PG away. But I’d also take an athletic big man.

Both.

Though I think Harris is decent as a PG he can't shoot and I am not sure Self knows how to use him optimally.

@Kcmatt7 said in Non-KU Games Thread:

@BShark swear this team is a PG away. But I’d also take an athletic big man.

Yeah we’d be pretty good with Dot and Doke back

@BeddieKU23 Hunter Dickinson is very kinda good, no doubt.

@Marco

Better then I thought he'd be but with Juwan coaching I'm sure he's getting good coaching on how to be a big.. He's a huge human being which helps, has good feet and skill level around the basket.

This is what I was talking about last night:

@CycloneMBB
at @TexasTechMBB
scheduled for January 23 has been postponed. The Conference will work with the institutions to reschedule.

Florida absolutely destroyed #6 Tennessee tonight 75-49.

ya really ugly

Duke lost everyone. They are 5-4. Fun times

It will be interesting to see where we are ranked this next poll. Who are we playing next again? This team needs a couple of wins, bad... (update)* I just checked, we play OU @ OU, hope we play as if our seeding depended on it because it definitely does at this point.

@Marco

11 am tip in Norman on the road. Spells disaster

Absolute must win game for this team on Saturday.

I'm starting to think it is about time to fully commit to the zone and play a rotation of basically 6.

Garrett, Harris, Braun, Ochai, Enaruna and Wilson. Let that team use their length/quickness to jump some passing lanes and launch 25+ threes

@Kcmatt7

Everything you just said would break Bill's core

@BeddieKU23 He did this to himself when he loaded this team up with 10 guards.

@Kcmatt7

By the way I agree with going more zone and shooting more 3's. The zone would help KU's worst defender (McCormack).

On offense though there's a zero chance Self goes away from feeding the post to focus on a perimeter shooting attack imo. Even after Braun & Ochai shot really well from 3 against Baylor we saw not enough action ran for either to get shots up. Is what it is..

@Kcmatt7 said in Non-KU Games Thread:

@BeddieKU23 He did this to himself when he loaded this team up with 10 wings.

Fixed.

Well guess not just KU. Was just surfing came across Duke Basketball message boards and kind of amusing/funny in some respect how their fans posts resemble a lot of KU fans remarks about this KU team - -let's look shall we ?

A lot of talk about how their team this year is just not that skilled or talented, - - -hmmm sound like anything we have heard ?

Then this : - - How our PG sucks , no true quality solid PG - -Goldwire is not a PG. - - again this bring anyone to mind ? - - ( how about Garrett ) ?

Then we have this : - -people have said me included and true but just funny other schools also - -we have no shows - -players that disappear or just not show up ready to play - -night in - -night out. Like no Braun sighting till last night for awhile - -Wilson gone for a couple of game Monday Night - -4 points? - -4 ? Even Ochai - miss his first couple of shots , there have ben times you wouldn't know he was even on the floor for the rest of the half.

Some people questioning the Coaching ? - -Oh ya we do - -don't lie , you know you do - - I know you do - -heard it many many times. the one we always hear IS - - how Coach is so committed to Marcus nothing EVER gonna change ya we hear that one a lot. Just a few of what other people from other Schools are saying about their teams.

Just kinda weird/looks weird to see others in the same boat, especially another blue blood, so guess it's NOT just us- - -they looking to NEXT YEAR at Duke hoping for the best, latest Bracketology Duke an 11 seed -WOW , they also talking like I have mentioned a few times here. -- They too saying they don't have that GO TO GUY that bucket getter someone who demands the ball in crunch time - -just different - - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Well COVID-19 has grabbed ANOTHER game , Texas Tech /TCU game postponed for Saturday - -had their game for tonight postponed - maybe it was last night postponed against Iowa State - -geez

@jayballer67

The KU TCU game on Tuesday looks like its in jeopardy as well. Might not play a home game for weeks..

ya think ? - -hadn't really heard anything about that yet so far. - - I know Dixon tested positive but was thinking if no m ore then maybe they be clear, but you could very easily be right

Georgia with a game-winning shot and Kentucky moves to 4-9. Way to go, UGA

Every year I think well maybe THIS might be the year KU women show something - - EVERY YEAR another let down. You can't tell me it's all the ladies. The last couple of years good recruiting classes BUT the mechanics of these Ladies is really sloppy - -THAT'S COACHING

Brandon Schneider should've been fired 3 years ago . It's the same thing every year with him. Build up a nice non-conference record against sub 200 ranked programs and then win 3-4 Big 12 games.

HEY here is a real STUNNER for you. - - A federal judge rules in favor of Zion in the case - - WOW didn't see that coming lmao

11 Creighton loses to Providence & # 20 gets beat up by Georgia Tech I believe it was - - crazy

I think it'd be hilarious to see Duke and UNC or Duke and Kentucky in the 11 v. 11 play in game.

I do not think that Kentucky is going make the tournament, they are done. At any rate, it is going to be interesting after the season to see Cal push all these highly touted so-called OADs to the NBA draft door and in the process put his team next year in the exact same situation as the one that they are in right now. The lack of any continuity has finally bit them in the arse.

4 Iowa lost at home to Indiana. I know this will please @wissox

Wisconsin is doing well. Who is their coach again, and how old is he? That might be one to add to our list.

@Marco Greg Gard In his 50's. He is a really good coach. I'd hate to see him leave UW to be honest, and I'm not sure he'd ever consider it.

@BeddieKU23 Yeah, that made me smile. I actually checked on it and saw Iowa with a comfortable lead so I changed the channel. Didn't even check on the score til I saw it this morning.

If folks think Fran is bad, watch Cory Alexander for a few minutes. If you drink every time he name drops someone not remotely related to the game you’ll die by half

Looks to me well to this point anyways that Oklahoma St is quicker then Baylor , just look really quick, getting plenty rebounds - -fun game to watch for awhile

I'm about ready to put Florida St. in the Baylor/Gonzaga category. They're absolutely DESTROYING Clempsen, 63-28 about halfway through 2H.

Also, KSU. Still bad.

KSU like 15 TO's in 22 possessions

Man, we could've really used Carlik Jones when he transferred. 6'1 do it all guard. 36% from 3. Averaging 18/6/5.

ya, just got through watching their game tonight - - LSU was horrible

And Tennessee lost to Miz. College hoops is so drunk they need a liver transplant.

Man, at this point, considering the games that we have left what? Fourth in conference and an eight or nine seed.

you figure we lose to Texas Again . we lose to Baylor again - probably lose to WV there, 50/50 chance against Tennessee at their place we could be looking at 9-10 losses and ya a 9 or 10 seed

Shaka tested positive for COVID-19

Whew-wee - -Texas in some Trouble , down 8 at home against Oklahoma.

Texas missing Head Coach Smart , and Three key players -on 8 players available - and 3 of those guys have 4 fouls with 16 minutes to go in the 2nd half - - could get real interesting - - out for Texas is Courtney Ramey - -- Jericho Sims - -* Cunningham

Just to note, we are in a 3 way tie for 5th in the conference right now. All six others have a better overall W-L record. We lose again and could fall to 7th, which is certainly something we don't expect in Jayhawk land...

On the other hand, we've had some home games cancelled and tough road games, so the schedule is supposedly more favorable the next month.

On the other, other hand, we've typically been the best road team in the conference, by far...

Yeah, our schedule has been brutal. KenPom has our SoS at 3rd in the country. We've played exactly one game against the bottom 3 teams in the conference. Say we go 5-1 in those 6 and it gets us to 9 wins in the conference. Plus home games left against Okie Lite and Tech. Then maybe can clip Texas at Austin or Baylor at home. 12 league wins isn't crazy, but I think 11-7 is more likely. 12-6 probably gets a tie for 3rd, 11-7 4th or 5th.

Texas only had 8 players and was without their best player (Ramey) and Jericho Sims.

Kentucky handed their 10th loss by Alabama. They were up 54-52 with a few minutes to go and was outscored 16-5 to end it lol

Duke avoided a 4 game losing streak by beating powerhouse Georgia Tech

@FarmerJayhawk said in Non-KU Games Thread:

Oklahoma won by one and Texas was without Sims - -Ramey & Cunningham - that's a lot - OU doesn't when that game if Texas at full strength , they STIL about lost that game and that's with 3 Texas players fouling out out of available 8 including their starting PO

Kansas st only down 12 after the first TV timeout against baylor

Bruce Weber NCOY

Is being down 33 at the under 8 in 1H good

Has everyone heard the phrase " like taking Candy away from a Baby " -HELLO K-STATE LMAO

Baylor 54, K-State 26 at the half. Expect anything different ?

Final: Baylor 107, KSU 59. So...that means we're 40 points better than the Kitties?

We need some wins, badly.

Kentucky doesn't want loss number 11 I guess. Canceled their game against Texas tommorrow.

@BeddieKU23 My thoughts too

@BeddieKU23 I'll give Bill this, he doesn't duck Ls like Cal and K.

@BeddieKU23 Texas is the one short on players and Shaka huh? Kentucky has Covid too?

@Crimsonorblue22

Yep UK on "48 hour pause"

2 day?

@Crimsonorblue22

That's what their release said. Contact tracing, positive tests etc.

A lot of people on the UK board talking about they think Conference Tourneys may get Cancelled. Could be right. - -like 8 major games cancelled last night , 10 cancelled for Saturday already is what they are saying.

Saying if Conference Tourneys get Cancelled that would give a 2 week window for them to address the situation as far as the Tourney goes , maybe allow time for some teams to get well

@jayballer67

For major conferences there is zero point of a conference tourney this year. The little guys, that's tough on them regardless but the reg season champ should get an auto in this year

Anyone else suspicious that Kentucky conveniently found covid to avoid another loss today? Playing Texas at Austin was going to be a tough game for Kentucky. I don't suppose there's any verification required to cancel a game.

2 ou starters out, reaves is one.

Ou has 6 players so does Alabama.

Flipping channels back and forth all kinds of Basketball BUT - - -- - - - so typical. - -Now guys we have seen this called in the past AND this year but obviously not against Duke , because as we all know it's Duke.

Johnson for Duke steals the ball goes down and flushes a Clemson player trying to block the attempt which he had no luck But Johnson flushes and then the Clemson player laying on the floor Johnson flex's up and stands right over or really close over the guy and mean mugs. - -THAT should of earned him the Tech - but NOPE nothing - it's Duke & K for GOD'S sake that's just BS

Geez Texas A & M 17-11 with like 6 minutes to go in half against K-State. - K State 0-11 from the 3

Not surprised.

Oklahoma giving Alabama all they want today. - -OU 32-29 at the half

Clemson is K St bad

Wow that's one of the worst calls I've ever seen called in the OU game

Oklahoma holding their own

@jayballer67 coach K would be whispering in his ear after the game if that was an opposing player.🤡

Heard coach K apologized to the reporter he roasted, to late! Heard of the old saying, love means never having to say you r sorry? 🤦‍♀️🤬🤫💩 to many times.

NIT

May be a 16 team only tourney.

Can't stand K-State but have to say they do have 2 pretty decent players or going to be. - -Nigel Pack 7 three's today 21 points and then Bradford the 7 footer gonna be solid

OU is a pretty good team!

yes they are. Better then I actually thought. - - These two games almost identical both K-State & OU ahead by 3

K-State wilts A & M wins 68-61. - Nigel Pack big game

This is crazy. Shame on BC administration.

No. 16/16 Florida State travels to face Boston College on Tuesday evening at 9 p.m. at the Conte Forum in Chestnut Hill, Mass. The Eagles are set to return to the court for the first time since January 16th

"Right now we have four scholarship players available to play this game [against FSU]."

On Monday morning, during the ACC Coaches Teleconference, Eagles' head coach Jim Christian shared an update regarding his team.
Christian pointed out that rules regarding depth necessary to play are 'vague', then sharing that the interpretation of the Atlantic Coast Conference is 'eight healthy bodies'.

"So if you look at our roster size, with five scout team players, we have enough guys to play," Christian stated. "Our administration made the decision that the game needs to be played.

Hate to see it. Duke lost to 6-10 Miami LOL
