We good.
I'm feeling optimistic tonight.
I’m optimistic that Zach can continue to play good enough D that Self keeps him on the floor for 15 mpg. I’m not sure that there is another player on the roster that could bring a dynamic that he is able to. If he can play the 5 adequately on D, I think he is the fix to the half court offense. For at least 15 minutes of the game… His ability to shoot is going to open up the lane in ways that nobody else on the team can because Zach is literally the best shooter on the team. If he can pull out the 5 man and clear the lane for drivers, or force help for open 3s, it changes the entire dynamic for an already top 3 offense. I also think that this is the counter punch we can use against an athletic big that is keeping us from finishing in the paint. Tonight is the perfect time to test my theory.
Prediction: KU hangs an 80-burger and walks out with a 20+ dub. Zach for 8 points and +15 on the floor. Och gets back in the groove.
Happy (Darnell) Valentine's Day everyone !
Who are the announcers tonite?
@BeddieKU23 scuse me while I go throw up
We were spoiled by having CBS a few days ago
@BeddieKU23 I was not impressed with their camera work but the announcing was top notcch
Let's go #Jayhawks ❤💙
RockChalk
Agree the cameras were weird.
Seen the throw back unis?
♨️
Still time for Kstate to choke
@RockChalkinTexas Apparently they're a tribute to the 1922 "national championship" team
Fran back for more deserved abuse from KU fans, no matter how hard he pretends
No JCL tonight.
@RockChalkinTexas Not being reported why yet.

Second worst uniforms in history. Assuming the shorts were even shorter 100 years ago

Bill should be wearing a wool tweed suit
Whatever
Agbaji can't shoot all of a sudden
Luckily Och can still jump!
Well that works
gym shorts for P.E....
nice little scoop b OCH

Dunk u very much

Fran off to a great start.
Butter fingers
4 local kids in the rotation, one working on masters. another kid who’s academic all American, also working on masters. High graduation rate.
Nice pass
Dave grab the ball
wilson should crash the boards every time he shoots
Ugh on 3's
Zach
this would be a good game for Zach
FIRST BIG OFF THE BENCH ZACH???!
Bullshit call
boooo
Some dumb fouls
Good grief
I feel like I’m watching Animal House or something. Hard to take these threads seriously.
Self not happy with the refs
Zach is doing great
Agbaji. Make something

Guess we are just gonna brick them all night
Just awful

Yeah, but refs don't have much to do with 5-18 shooting and 0-7 from 3....

Still up. OSU is worse
After the end of the Super Bowl these refs aren’t so bad yet.

Both teams just brutal. Most of our few makes have been in transition.
Did WVU lose?
OSU is 3-15, we have more RBs and fewer TOs and we're up 3 at home............
Under was like 140 in this game? I need to start gambling
Can't make layups
Atrocious
put the white shorts on at halftime
Pathetic
Teams combined for less than 25% shooting. Good stuff....
Glad I waited all day for this
ugly - - -just plain ugly
Missing the Olympics
Have to figure out how to get the starters clicking.
Well tech beating uva was at least satisfying
Big board by Yesefu
This team is just so bad when they are bad and so good when they are good. Complete momentum team. Score and force a half court posession. Get a stop. Then run and score. Rinse repeat.
When they can't score, they can't get stops, they can't run. And in the blink of an eye the score is tied or worse
Might be first to 50 wins tonight.
Could you make a free throw braun

I'd love to see more local talent, but I just want us to win no matter where they're from. The 1988 NC team only had Chris Piper and Danny Manning (who played his HS ball in North Carolina) as contributors. The 2008 champs were a little better...Brandon Rush, Brady Morningstar, Tyrel Reed and a few guys who mostly sat on the bench. When you recruit nationally you're bound to lose a few local guys.
Good intent by Dave just awkward shot there

Exactly. You can't have an elite program only recruiting the KC/MO area. For every diamond in the rough like Och, CB, Ron Baker etc you have a bunch of guys in that ranking range that don't do much in college.
Lively up yourselves

Quit trading baskets now. Get a stop

Okay sure
Och wanted the ball

@Jethro said in Oklahoma State Game Thread:

18 minutes that half. Unsustainable amount of PT for him, but he was playing really well down the stretch there.
Maybe he needs to start doing sprints or something before the game to settle down a bit. Played really well when he had to be a little gassed.
@approxinfinity said in Oklahoma State Game Thread:

So I mean, Mitch comes in for a second and OSU gets an extremely easy bucket so I hope so.
Men's curling just went up 5-4 over Switzerland
@approxinfinity said in Oklahoma State Game Thread:

God I hope. He grabbed 3 rebounds in 2 minutes. I was sort of shocked he only got 2 minutes. Didn't look like he was a negative on the court to me.
Also Dave can't do another 18, so SOMEONE is going to get some minutes. Hope it is him or KJ
Kissing Kentucky ass at halftime. Big 12 fans don’t care.

10 points in 10:20---28 in 9:40 is that cosistency?

But you didn’t see it until the replay Fran. What does that say about you?
Stop it refs
Look Juan isn’t a great offensive player but you do actually have to kind of guard him
Sure on that 3 they made

Bill should be very done with him if Zach keeps showing he can defend well. Zach also makes the other team respect his shooting all the way to the three point line.
When Harris realizes he can flat out dominate the game on offense when he is aggressive to take the open look is the next evolution to his game.
Good play Juan
Starting to like those unis
Mitch's legacy might be showing Zach how to make some contact instead of being a finesse player. Zach has been putting some body on guys since he's been back
BIG ZACH
What’s our guard situation again next year? Harris, Yes, and who’s coming in? (Assuming CB is gone)

Still think Remy is going to win us a game or two in march/april. (crossing fingers)
@FarmerJayhawk Hope Cuffe hangs around but I've heard he has a ways to go.
@approxinfinity Something to be said for Juan is that he is ALWAYS available. Really remarkable considering his frame/size.
I guess Bill is just trying to get this 5 into a groove

Crazy stat of tonight. +32 with Ochai on the floor. Nobody else within 10 points. CB closest at +22

We didn't score in the last 5:15. That wasn't just the scrubs. Guess we didn't need it, but those flat lines on the game flow summary are a bit odd.
@tundrahok post game players said coach wasn't to happy with their closing
Well I’d say that we need more scoring from the bench but the facts are we might not. If Dave and Juan can get to couple figures this team will be just fine on the offensive end as Och will most likely add another 20 plus 15 from Wilson and Braun and your looking at 70 points. Enough to win most games.
Zach’s rebounds were big this game and if he gets comfortable doing that and defending a bit we know he can pop off for some buckets in limited minutes.
Still waiting on a productive offensive performance from yes but we’ve seen the pieces are there.
This team can defend when they are locked in. But I think the rotation could be starting to solidify. This is a team that could get hit and win a bunch of games or lose to a good team but I don’t think they’ll lose a shocker that’s a massive upset. Maybe a slightly underseeded athletic group could knock them out first weekend but I don’t see it. I fortunately I also have trouble seeing this team winning 4 in a row vs very good teams which is what it would take to win the whole thing but it could happen.

This is a solid quote from an opposing coach.
@benshawks08 I like him. I'm not that thrilled about leaving the big 12. I guess it's all about money. No more Fran.🤷♀️
I’d been thinking of it for awhile, but the very second I spoke to the TV and said WTF are our the starters still doing in the game, Fran answered my question. So for all you Fran haters (I’m not), he gave us the scoop and said coaches don’t want to affect the ridiculous NET stats for NCAA seeding by taking out the starters.
Today, I dunno. If Self publicly says our studs need to play way fewer minutes, today was the day. SIX guys only in double digit minutes.
Also have 5 days til the next game so could afford to play guys when there's good rest coming the next few
Watched the game at 2:30 am.
The refs changed their whole MO at the start of the second half.
About 8-10 minutes into the second a graphic showed we had hit 9 of 10 shots. We were shooting 51% after that, Lmao.
Zach contributed just fine but he seemed a little slow or maybe just half committed due to the obvious.
JWill missed several easy buckets he had worked hard for. Dang it.
Was questioning Bill for not subbing more at the end. Now I see why he didn't.
I liked the unis. George Gervin was watching some old games with his kids and said they called the short shorts Come Get Me pants as in sending a signal to the weirdos.
Self said he didn't think Zach would be able to play in the OU game. Was still a bit sore. Tough :flexed_biceps:
Fran did hastily state "I don't know that's what Bill was doing." LOL
