Anyone else frustrated we don’t get to go against their athletes?

Davis, their 6-8 wing and Aidoo (center) might now play.

Arkansas is the type of team we don’t keep up with and they are crazy athletic. Wish we could face them at full strength to see what we got.

Might not or might now play?

It won’t be a typical game, they’ll probably play a normal half or so then go to situational stuff. We won’t be healthy either. No Hunt, Griffen, or Shak.

Tweaked his groin

If this was a real game that mattered, I believe all 3 would give it a go

Well not to bad, better just to save them let them mend for when it counts

Damn Andy that’s cold 😂. Like the dudes groin I guess

@FarmerJayhawk needs to drink a few Arnold Palmers

@FarmerJayhawk needs to drink a few Arnold Palmers

I wish so, so much I had no idea what this joke was about

@approxinfinity did you tell @FarmerJayhawk.

@Crimsonorblue22 nope.

Dickinson is out? Sore foot?

Self said he expects all to be practicing again by Sunday, including Moore. We'll see.

@stoptheflop

Sprain during Late Night. Self said expects him to practice this weekend, perhaps play in the 2nd exhibition. Doesn't sound like he'll miss any games. Something to monitor though

Arkansas might be without 3 starters and could have only 6 healthy dudes Calamari wants to play. We'll see if true.

Cal and Bill seeing who can take this the least serious

I haven't seen the new AFH capacity, but I'm guessing the charity exhibition is at Arkansas because it seats 19,000+. Second year running that our charity exhibition has been away.

@stoptheflop hosting a game at Allen would be a little iffy too, it’s still not 100% done. Very, very close though.

@approxinfinity oh I knew, and regret knowing lol

I realize this game is going to charity, I wonder which charity ? -T he bigger question for me is what si Coach looking to get out of this scrimmage ?- -Any particular Area ? -hoping no more players get banged up.

I'm for protecting our injured guys. It's always great to get one over on Cal... but this is basically just a practice scrimmage.

I want to see Coit, Kease and Flory play anyways

@Kcmatt7 said in Pigs:

It literally is a preseason game so the label is less relevant, but I hope Self and Cal treat it like an NFL preseason game. Run some basic sets, play lots of young guys, sell a bunch of tickets, stay healthy. Beyond that I don't care

Pre-empted by Volleyball on SEC Network, so switching to ESPN News, I guess

Oh no we get chief Cal knob slobberer Dykes

Not a lot of defense so far lol

Line change!

Both teams playing fast, slightly out of control

Kease ain’t Scurred

Excitement based on what youve seen so far on scale 1-10? I just tuned in

@approxinfinity going in, a 2. Right now, also a 2. Just couldn’t bring myself to get that interested in this one

2….

Arkansas is way more athletic and loaded unlike what @BShark2 said

Boogie, Wagner and Davis are the ultimate 3 guards who can do it all. Wagner hit 2 threes in Juan’s face and Juan turned him over once but isn’t much of a threat offensively

Brazile and Aidoo are going to be defensive stoppers

Arkansas will be a final 4 contender easily

We look slow, small and unathletic

Even with Hunter, Rylen and Keel it still wouldn’t matter

@FarmerJayhawk We are running stuff but Coit or any of these guards can’t create their own shot or beat their man off the dribble

Juan’s first paint touch was a minute ago on the drive

Mayo can only do his step back

Overall pretty pitiful guard wise which supposedly we were going to improve

We need a remy and ain’t got 1

@kuballin10 the equivalent of inside zone and slants, nothing even remotely non-vanilla. Chill, it’s October 25 and 3 of our top 7 aren’t playing

@FarmerJayhawk Yeah that’s what we can all claim to make ourselves feel better but that means you aren’t watching

It’s pretty obvious

Even if we ran stuff we can’t execute it against their athleticism

Same against Illinois last year and I’m sure you’d claim vanilla as well

That’s what fans say for this crap….ku was vanilla against linden wood in football and we’ve seen how that went

We are running plays and playing the game. U can choose to think it’s nothing but this says plenty

We really need some athletes

@kjayhawks they’ll practice next week

@FarmerJayhawk won’t change the athleticism gap….

@FarmerJayhawk ya can’t take much from this with whom both guys have out other than their bench is much better than ours

@kuballin10 yeah adding an athletic wing and PG won’t matter sure thing bud

@FarmerJayhawk Wing isn’t even slated to start per you and other “insiders”

Oh and that point won’t play but 10 - 15 mpg because Juan is gonna play over 30 as always

Storr can’t shoot either which sucks

@FarmerJayhawk that pg is short too not 6-3/6-4 like Wagner, Davis and fland

These dudes can d you up

Dykes just said - does KU have multiple guys who can beat u off the bounce WHICH WE CANT

I’ve said it all last year and this year and it starts with the guy playing pg

He beats u going hard right chucking up a semi hook shot as his body flies out of bounds

Like right there….took a hand off to do it

Welp, cancel the season. In October. With 3/7 of our rotation out. We just can’t pull it off.

This is Bill’s roster and supposed to be a team we love and will be something special

We might lose 4-5 games before conference

Hunter cant d up

Juan can’t beat his dude off the dribble without a screen or handoff

Storr can’t shoot but loves to

Mayo is what @Texas-Hawk-10 said

Fland a freshman working Juan…the 12th year senior

He ain’t the best Jimmy he was 6th-7th last year per real statistics

He can’t go get 20 and he can’t beat his man off the bounce to properly distribute and CREATE

Bill ain’t winning another title. Said we need guards who can create and still trots Juan out for 30 mpg. Says one thing does another - that’s Bill

Juan backdoor getting worked by the d1 high level athlete

Bill put the narrative about Juan being so good

Bill’s lost it and without remy he’s got 1 title and still trying to convince us Juan is the end all be all

Juan scoring this quarter but still net negative

Losses it there geez

I’ll see you all next year

Lol

Can’t stay in front of boogie

Get Shakeel out here as pg1 but Bill will never

@kuballin10 obviously we look pretty bad but maybe settle down a bit

😂 the thread is true to form!

@dylans I think @kuballin10 ran everyone off

Eff you Boogie.

I actually think Juan has looked good offensively, his defense continues to concern me. The guy he is on can get to the paint whenever he feels like it.

Still playing hard.

@kjayhawks agree. Happy to see Dajuan acting like the man on offense. Juan was 39th ranked PG of his class. Boogie is 1st PG in his.

Def has had the explosive first step on Juan today.

Kj's passes!

@approxinfinity for sure, I’m a little worried with how much athleticism we seem to be lacking compared to them. Hunts size would help a lot out there I think but they are so much quicker than we are.

What is everyone’s thoughts on the Quarters?

@kjayhawks said in Pigs:

What is everyone’s thoughts on the Quarters?

I’m pro quarters

Goodnight and take an aspirin.

@Zabudda ya it could be a long weekend with the sunflower showdown tomorrow

I’ll say the same thing I did at the end of last season, if KJ is starting and playing big minutes at the 4 we ain’t winning a thing. Its a sad truth at this point

@kjayhawks the Sunflower Smackdown?

@nuleafjhawk I can decide if I will fool myself into thinking we have a chance or not. If the same team that showed up last week does again I think we do but this rivalry seems to bring out the worst of us.

I actually think KSU has a worse secondary than Houston, so if that holds and our run game shows up we could have a fun shootout. Our defense couldn’t slow down LA traffic. Hate to bag on our guys but the DEs have been not great

It'd be great for Devin to get a record or 2-3 tmrw!💙❤️🌾

Holy crap, watching on delay right now. The Sox new broadcaster John Schiffren did that game tonight for SEC network. He wasn't that great at baseball but maybe decent tonight?

Watched the first half, really not too interested in watching the 2nd half. 1st half was really helter skelter, ugly, non pleasing, set the game back 50 years type of thing. I was really just like no one get hurt. KJ flying over spectators for a loose ball. Why KJ? Why? Bidunga Kowabunga!! DaJuan looked like dasame player. Saw some flashes. Didn't see Storr do anything except miss some ugly 3's.

But who cares? I don't. Glad i got to see Freemans slam. That was the most exciting moment of the night.

I like Dejuan, but I can't help but think what it would be like if we had the opportunity to recruit a guy like Boogie into the program. Damn. We've passed on some guards.

I sure hope he comes through again.

@FarmerJayhawk I wish they played at 11:00 or 3:00 or whatever. I have a full day planned and wouldn't even try to watch. However, my evening is a blank slate. I may watch the World Series - that was a good game last night!

As you well know, I've been wrong before. A lot. But I don't have a great feeling about KU's chances tonight.

Not a good look but TCU completely shut down Arkansas yesterday and ended up beating them in an overtime exhibition game. 😳
