We good.
Ooooo I predict a 40 point ass waxing. Jinx!
Really wish this team got to have Jalen these games to get chemistry... Plenty of time to get that, but still annoying.
KU is a 25.5 point favorite tonight
@approxinfinity said in Stony Brook Game Thread:
@Kcmatt7 doesn’t matter IMO. Got to see other guys get some run. I don’t see a trap game in the non-con but maybe I’m overlooking someone. Seems all like a net plus to me.
Coach said we are going to have to be able to attack a zone. So sounds like they zone a lot I reckon , we will see. Just hope we come out play solid
Wonder if the will use their 7ft 280lb center.
@jessejayhawk He played 1 minute in their first game. Maybe they try because of Dave but I think they would be better off swarming him like Tarleton did.
didn't get to see the Tarelton game
NICE from Remy
KU left the shooter open again. Not since I coached 5th grade basketball have I seen a defender leave the man with the ball to guard someone else, leaving the shooter open. Jeez
@stoptheflop This has been an issue all year so far, but Bill will get em right on that end.
Remy with a nice pass there.
Classic Dave lol
SOFT call
ffs
Nice d by Harris
Bench Dave
Omg dave
That was really bad play
FreeZach
Mitch coming in ahead of Zach is painful.
Big mac needs to get his head out of his ass
Dave hasn't even had a good half this year let alone a whole game.
Tired of playing only Dave or Mitch. Can we try one of our freshman today please?
Good D.
Agbaji is a cheat code
JCL is a bucket

Release the Zachen
@KirkIsMyHinrich said in Stony Brook Game Thread:
@BShark I guess Stony Brook is too small as well.
I'd play him over Dave at this point. Bill would never obvs.
Prison mitch is +9!!!
Zach/KJ can also be too big for Stony Brook. I don't like that excuse not to play them.
They can make that call in 10 seconds not 5 minutes
@KirkIsMyHinrich said in Stony Brook Game Thread:

KJ is very lost on the court. He still makes plays but just as likely to disrupt our own offense at this point.
I think all replays should be at full speed....no slow mo. All sports that is.

You're describing Dave
@KirkIsMyHinrich LOL
Dave knows the plays he is just playing like ass.
No better time to learn the plays than against Stony Brook. Sorry I'll stop
How bad is Michigan State?
A lot of this tonight was on Dave though, for real.
Bobby!
Prison mitch!!!!
They've actually looked really good since we beat them. Beat Butler by 21 on the road the other night.
Mitch on a heater
Lt🦶
Mitch just understands timing and how to use leverage. Dave is still a spaz
BD😢
Sure
That crap goes in and Mitch shot rolls out lol
Drat we suck again
Bobby!!
Lt 🦶😎
Are u kidding me
Mitch Bigfoot
They won't keep hitting looks like that all game lol
KJ for the smol boi lineup
KJ
Nice move
They are hitting some really tough shots
@KirkIsMyHinrich don't seem tough🔥
@Crimsonorblue22 said in Stony Brook Game Thread:
@KirkIsMyHinrich don't seem tough🔥
Maybe not for you. You're a regular Kevin Durant
6 3s is what is keeping them alive
I'm not terribly worried, even some of their 2 pt makes were tough and contested.
Gotta get Remy going.
they are 6-11 from 3 and 3-12 from 2 lol
Dave!
Ochai could score 100 tonight cutting down the middle of the lane
🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Lolz
Maybe I'm just used to Doke dunking that but I wish Dave would go up stronger. Nice sequence from him though.
Juando
Great steal by D Jaun

Och
Uh, ya don't let Agbaji walk into a 3-pointer
Does Dave ever pass the friggin ball out?
I'm OK if agbaji shoots 25 shots a game change my mind
I like it: 17 min into the half and 0 free throws
Zuby is an exciting prospect as well.
Love Dave but I'm ready for new bigs.
Find someone who loves you as much as Dave loves fadeaway hooks over triple teams
It's my birthday Saturday
🤦♀️🌟❤💙
@KirkIsMyHinrich Remy missing too. At least on the score board
Cheap block. Ah well
This might be a good game to practice some tighter perimeter defense
Juan!!
Xavier beats Ohio St. The B10 continues to get dominated by the Big East
have to thread the needle to lob to Big Dave. Doke you could just throw it up anywhere
The Juan Bobby backcourt 😍😍😍
Dave is soft
That's no ford Bobby; that's a Pettiferrari
I know he got fouled, but it seems like a small amount of contact causes Dave to flail wildly.
Hasn't changed in 4 yrs
Never going to power up through contact. That's just dave
I'll take Dave's screens, 14 points and 3 rebounds per game in 20 minutes though
Dave “Bambi” McCormack
Zach!!
See what I mean about KU's scheduling vs Baylor. Stony Brook a favorite to win their league.
Zach
Here we go
pick and 2
let's be honest, that half kind of sucked
Billy Eugene is MAD

Goes to show how important it is. Stony Brook 6-13 from three (started 6-11) so they are only down 6 despite being mostly outplayed.
I know they played a little bit, but it would be nice to see Zach or KJ get more than a minute of play at a time. It's hard to get into any sort of rhythm when you're playing 55 seconds at a time.
Still trying to figure how Wilson is going to slip in with this cast of characters

We are missing Christan's 3's - remember his freshman year seemed stronger then any year since - -got to get him to return to some of that
28 point in the paint. Hmmm
Och 🔥🔥🔥
32 now thanks to Och
How many points are we supposed to win by?
@jayballer67 yeah, he's rebounding, passing and has a nose for ball but has not been looking for his shot enough imo
Och needs a nickname at this point... something with "dog"
Agbaji with a low key 20
O dog
Dave thinks he's a guard
We see your muscles, Dave, so use them
Time of possession is in our favor this half so far
We can't defend a lick. At least we got Och
Humid in the feildhouse tonight according to big daves sweat factor
We only have 4 fouls and 22 rbs
Dave has always had a sweet stroke on the line, but not so much this year
Remy hasn't scored. I think that changes real soon
@BeddieKU23 if he gets back in
@BeddieKU23 said in Stony Brook Game Thread:

Keep telling myself if anyone can get this team to play good D it is Bill. Will be tough with Remy, Jalen and Dave being major players. We will have to cook on offense but we have some talent..
That's our Mitch!
Not a huge fan of this lineup...
Offense not looking as good with 2 non scorers in. what a shock
Giving me flashbacks to last year
Nifty possession
@DanR said in Stony Brook Game Thread:
Giving me flashbacks to last year
Would love to avoid the Dajuan Mitch pairing
Pettiford actually got Agbaji open there. It was subtle
Bobby P. Crazy good
Put the starters in, Bill. Gotta get this team to figure it out
The answer to any question is always put Zach in the game
Zach on the attack
PER to the mooooon
This lineup with either of the Jalen's instead of Yesufu would be fire
Lmao Och
More Zach
way to use all the rim, Och!
@FarmerJayhawk The trick is to play 30 seconds at a time and shoot 100% from 3.
NIL from Zachsby’s?
Zach is locked in even at the free-throw line LOL
Pettiway is my favorite player
Lol Zach dgaf
His release kind of looks like Dirk Nowitzki ngl
WOW
Good for Zach
Plus the assist!
Show no mercy, Clemence!
Champion of men, Zach CleMENce
CB
Wow. Up 29
Has Remy played himself back to the bench?
Creeping up on my 40 pt drubbing prediction
Just got back from a movie. How we lookin'? Any surprises?
Remy who?
Not to be dramatic but Zach Clemence may be the best player of all time
@nwhawkfan yeah we sucked most of the first half and then just went bonkers in the last 10 minutes
Remy's body language has been very poor
I 2nd this motion
80% three point shooter on this team
@FarmerJayhawk Hyperbole
Remy has had an off night. Will he come in with the scrubs
@approxinfinity said in Stony Brook Game Thread:

Oh, then business as usual.
Zach Rocket Man Clemen(s/ce) bringing the heat
This team having offense off the bench is just so refreshing
Still have no idea why the local Toyota dealer gave the Camry to Remy instead of Ochai or Mitch
By the way, that movie has a Kansas tie-in. The French Dispatch. Pretty surreal. From the same director as The Grand Budapest Hotel.
Pettiford, Clemence, JCL lineups make me happy
Yes earning some Billy Eugene points
yesefu all over the place
🤭🤭🤭🤭
Good hustle, Yes
Good lord Braun can jump.. Lets see more of that
Up 29 and we got boys on the floor.
3 for Stony Brook made a business decision there
Must see tv up 29 with 5 minutes left
Clemence has looked a step quicker tonight. Defense has been pretty good
Dude’s letting it fly
I feel bad for this guy at the line
@approxinfinity said in Stony Brook Game Thread:

You have to admit it has been a while since we were in this kind of position!

Pretty
This lineup is an excellent lineup
Future looks really bright with these young guys. Wow.
@KirkIsMyHinrich said in Stony Brook Game Thread:

Agree and the fact that it doesn't involve Remy or Dave is interesting.
Lots of guys who just get it already. Where are the freshmen?
Where did Bobby come from ?
My man KJ Jr needs to see a little more court time too
@RockChalkinTexas Durham NC. Signed with Louisville then asked out.
Zach going to stuff the stat sheet
@RockChalkinTexas said in Stony Brook Game Thread:
Where did Bobby come from ?
He is from North Carolina. Didn't go to a prep school either, played at a small HS. Had his people basically beg KU to take a look after the Louisville decommitment.
Start Bobby, Remy, Ochai, Wilson, and Zach against North Texas. Just do it, Bill
His tape was PHENOMENAL. Probably a top 30 guy if he went the prep school route I'm not kidding. His lack of a three ball will keep him at KU. Blessed.
Ochai stuck at 999 threes.
Teahan Time !
Jank gotta drill that
Jank!
KJ needs to play more
Everyone needs to play more. Guess we just need 6 extra games at the end
no steal and dunk
Bill’s got a lot of good problems. I have no idea how to play everyone the amount they deserve
Especially when Jalen gets back
Trifecta. KU wins, beats the spread, hits the Over.
Don’t worry, somehow someone will get suspended or injured. The depth will disappear.
(This is how I rationalize away too much good)
only 7 turnovers, awesom
Is the North Texas game going to be on ESPN+? Do we know yet?
@KirkIsMyHinrich ESPN2
MAN, what a challenge. By that I mean what do we do ? - -Mercy do we continue to try even later in the season try to continue to try and get Zach and KJ possible 5-6 minutes a game ? - -We are soooo dang deep? - -so many combinations. - Then there is NO WAY you keep Bobby out of major minutes , have I told you how much I like me some Bobby ? - - -The kid is going to be an absolute stud. , he does not look like a freshman to me anyways.
Zach the kid has got a pretty dam decent looking shot , can stretch the floor for sure. - I'm telling ya these freshmen are pretty dam sweet. - -Pettiford - - Zach - -KJ - -all bring something. Did you catch the follow up attempted slam by KJ ? - Almost got that dang thing , mercy was he up. Braun played much better the 2nd half ,- -you could just keep going so , so, so many options- then of course Och - -WOW
CB with only one 3 point attempt (which he made).
Then on top of this - - Remy only ONE shot attempt and ZERO points - -that's not going to happen often & with no Jalen - he comes back next time. - -Sooooo deep
@FarmerJayhawk said in Stony Brook Game Thread:

Boy farmer you are so right. so many problems - -but GOOD problems, so many options combinations - no idea, are we going to continue to try and get Zach & KJ 5-6 minutes at least a game ? - -Bobby gonna get major minutes , the kid sure doesn't act like a freshman.
Remy didn't score but he only took 2 shots, had 4 rebounds, 2 assists, and no turnovers. I'm fine with that stat line on this KU team. Scoring isn't an issue. I mean he could definitely play better but I'm glad he's not taking 15 shots and forcing it.
@KirkIsMyHinrich Yeah I want Och leading this team in FGA. Jalen is likely to take a fair number of looks when back.
Ahh Remy tweaked his back - -big reason for not playing much Coach said
Apparently Remy reinjured his back. according to Self's postgame interview.
Coach saying that we won't be able to continue to have this many players with this many minutes - -minutes will go down
Ya, our depth is such that we could probably have two top-25 teams. There are going to be a few unhappy players I would guess when Self has to tighten his rotations.
Depth will pay off in that three-games-in-four- days stretch.
JWill will be taking 25+ minutes once he is fully back in Bill's good graces so that alone will cut minutes from others.
Bobby though, Bill really really loves him. You know Bill freaking loves a guy when he lets them play through defensive lapses. He's hard to keep off the court, a spesha talent.
I got to watch on a tiny little phone screen. I think I saw our team win, I mean it looked like guys in our unis playing good and the other unis playing good early and then guys in other unis making lots of shots so I think we won.
First half: no comment
Second half: plenty of comment! I was getting fired up to unleash on Self for leashing Remy — Til I heard the post game news about his back. Still, let the dude shoot. Pls.
ZACH FREAKING CLEMENCE!!!!!!!!!! So happy he’s gettIng some run. Such a smooth shot. More, pls.
Pettiford deserves any PT he gets. I see others thought he played poorly. I was happy with his play.
Are we to assume Self simply didn’t want to bring in a big to compete with Dave??? Why?
Anyways, great second half. Rock chalk!
Ochai is averaging .78 pts per minute played. Unsustainable but what a crazy good start to his season. He has 79 pts in 101 minutes so far

He's certainly playing at a level that very few reach in a KU uni so far. It looks legit and sustainable. He should be a 20pt guy the way he's going. The improvement he's made with the ball and his confidence/aggressiveness is so much fun to watch.
@BeddieKU23 gee, think Och's decision to come back was a good one? He's shredding it!
Bobby played more minutes than Remy last night. :writing_hand:
That is what was reported but I have my doubts.
Good game to get freshman minutes. P was really good last night for the most part. His change of direction speed is filthy
I've been super high on Clemence since we signed him but man he's exceeded expectations. I know all the talk is about him getting stronger, he will, he's a baby faced freshman out there. But the skill level on this kid is legit already. He more then held his own last night against smaller players on defense and he has a knack for the ball. Obviously the waters get deeper as the season goes on but just from what we've seen it would be Criminal not to play this kid.

Oh I agree just looks fluid and I was commenting last night after the game here Bill gonna have to figure out how can w keep getting Zach/KJ 5 minutes or so in the game we are Soooo deep. - Bill mentioned in his post game , he wasn't going to be able to run as deep and minutes would be falling off. - Bill could legit I think run deep without a lot of drop off for a least at bit.
I tell you what I really like this group of guys we have and what we got coming in - -Mercy these young guys. You figure we lose Oachi , Dave , Remy , Jalen for sur but dm we have Zach , Bobby , KJ , Juan , Braun , Zuby , Udeh and looks like MJ - -that could be really nast group NEXT YR

No doubt.. And how can Clemence not play more in every game?
Is it fair to say Clemence has the nicest looking form on his shot on the team this year?
Dude’s gotta play.
@rockchalkjayhawk said in Stony Brook Game Thread:

Undoubtedly.
So if you didn’t watch the game last night, and just looked at the box score, it looks like Big Dave had a good game. 12 points, 8 boards, 1 block, decent percentages. But sure didn’t seem to pass the eyeball test if you were watching.
You would think by now he’d be calmer in the paint. I hate to even suggest it, but why isn’t he learning from Mitch? Despite his shortcomings, he can post and make a baby hook — calmly.
I hope late last season Dave shows up soon!
@rockchalkjayhawk he's never settled down, man. I'll just get this out of the way right now, I know that he could come back for a fifth year if he so chose, but god I hope that he doesn't. Not with who we have coming back and who we have coming in - not to mention who else we might be able to sign.
Just one of Dave's quirks. Hopefully he settles in as the season goes on like he did last year.

@Marco said in Stony Brook Game Thread:
@BShark Bobby and Zach are future NBAers, they have to play. Adams needs to play too imo
I think Zach has a real chance because of his jumper. When it's THAT good it outweighs a lot of other things. He does have a ways to go but I think he can get there.
Bobby to me looks like a pro but not NBA.
Disagree on KJ at this point, don't think he has been very good at all he's just athletic. I think he is worth developing but he isn't offering much this year.

I'd have to disagree with Bobby , got to remember he still a baby even though he doesn't look it - has some years to sharpen what ever area's - has the body loks pretty solid to me , seems pretty mature decision making adqueate balls skills as a freshmen - think he just keeps getting better
Bobby is a GREAT college player there is just a big difference between that and an NBA player. Dotson and Frank are struggling to make it in the NBA.

True but he has got time - - just a freshman - -better then Frank OR Devonte I think in their freshman yrs- just think he is further along. Seems like Frank and Actually Devonte both didn't really seem to come on till late Soph or JR yrs right ?
6’1 that’s tough
@approxinfinity how tall is Graham? Kemba?
Bobby can't shoot. I do expect the staff to really help him there though.
