Just about time.

HIDE YO KIDZ!!!

Nov 19, 2016 12:54 AM #3

I like Matt Tait. I think he's a genuinely good dude. Tom ruined the LJW. The boards drove that joint, and he didn't like it. It was a GD community, and they won awards.

Nov 19, 2016 12:55 AM #5

They are interviewing Matt Tait (a columnist for the Lawrence World Journal) right now.

Nov 19, 2016 12:56 AM #6

@dynomitehawk

Ah okay. Haven't turned anything on yet.

Forgive me if I Jaybate, but Sienna, Italy is one of the most intoxicating and beautiful places on earth. The best thing about Sienna is the siesta, which occurs approx at 3pm. You go home, drink a glass of wine, bump uglies, and nap. Then you go back to work, and finish the day eating dinner and strolling until 10pm. Why does America stop naps at 5 years old? I'm 41 and could use one every day. My point is that the Sienna Saints make no sense, and it should be the Sienna Sietas.

Nov 19, 2016 01:05 AM #9

Technology getting me big time tonight grrrrrrrrr

Nov 19, 2016 01:06 AM #10

I should get one of those live porn chat links and charge you guys for watching my TV.

Nov 19, 2016 01:06 AM #11

Oh Jesse...

Under strengths for Siena

â–Ş Rim protection: Led by 6-foot-10 center Javion Ogunyemi, Siena is a good shot-blocking team, ranking 69th in block percentage this year after finishing 58th in the stat last season.

Under Weaknesses

▪ Allowing close shots: Through two games, 46 percent of opponents’ shots against Siena have come at the rim, a number that ranks 324th nationally.

Nov 19, 2016 01:06 AM #12

I mean play the game only. lol

Nov 19, 2016 01:07 AM #13

Honor will lead us in scoring tonight.

Nov 19, 2016 01:09 AM #14

Free throws for Josh are such a problem.

Nov 19, 2016 01:09 AM #15

Carlton buckets Bragg

Nov 19, 2016 01:10 AM #16

This is not a hangover game. If you wan't to use this as an analogy I must counter. If this is a hangover game, then KU is JR Ewing, sipping bourbon, at 5:00, waiting for Sue Ellen to wake up.

Nov 19, 2016 01:10 AM #17

I like that shot of Braggs....when they go in.

Nov 19, 2016 01:11 AM #18

This is a Lucas kind of game athletically.

Nov 19, 2016 01:11 AM #19

Bad ball to the rescue

Nov 19, 2016 01:11 AM #20

He was not set

Nov 19, 2016 01:12 AM #21

Got to learn how to guard pick and rolls better

Nov 19, 2016 01:12 AM #22

WHATTTTT????

Nov 19, 2016 01:12 AM #23

Getting whatever we want at the rim but defensive issues.

Nov 19, 2016 01:12 AM #24

LOL THAT CALL

Nov 19, 2016 01:13 AM #25

FRANK HIGH FLYIN

Nov 19, 2016 01:13 AM #26

What world in the name of Mary Lou Retton, can Frank Mason finish a lob like a boss?

Nov 19, 2016 01:13 AM #27

1st bad call of the night. JJ seems to be a magnet for bad officials

Wow, Frank!

Nov 19, 2016 01:13 AM #28

Wow, Frank!

Yeah that was SUCH a damn flop.

Nov 19, 2016 01:14 AM #29

I like the drive by Carlton. He needs to take that whenever he is one on one

Nov 19, 2016 01:14 AM #30

12- 12.

Are we gonna stop them?

Nov 19, 2016 01:15 AM #31

@Bwag said:

At some point the team will be interested in defense. Might take a bit like the Duke game.

Nov 19, 2016 01:16 AM #32

yeah these guys acting like this a scrimmage on defense. Self will let them know now. I bet the game slows down a bit at some point this half

Nov 19, 2016 01:16 AM #33

@BShark we know Self will be in their ears during this TO.

Nov 19, 2016 01:16 AM #34

Mason has some hops fellas

Exactly

Nov 19, 2016 01:16 AM #36

@HawkChamp

Nov 19, 2016 01:18 AM #37

Any reason at all to guard Siena on the 3 ball? Or is this a scrimmage where we just let them shoot and if they miss fast break up court.

Nov 19, 2016 01:18 AM #38

Good poss on d there

Nov 19, 2016 01:18 AM #39

Does anyone else not have the game right now? My screen went black on the channel...

Nov 19, 2016 01:18 AM #40

Mine is rolling. WOW in Lawrence.

Nov 19, 2016 01:18 AM #41

Got it back now

Nov 19, 2016 01:19 AM #42

@stoptheflop yes

Nov 19, 2016 01:19 AM #43

Sienna is that prototypical NCAA team with experience.

Nov 19, 2016 01:20 AM #44

Icy from 3 land

Question may be should Sienna guard our 3 ball the way we've been shooting it from 3.

Nov 19, 2016 01:22 AM #46

Svi!!!

Nov 19, 2016 01:22 AM #47

@HawkChamp I have cox and it went off, back on. Missed a few though

Nov 19, 2016 01:22 AM #48

Wow Vick!

Nov 19, 2016 01:22 AM #49

I like how the guys are looking to push the ball at every opportunity.

Nov 19, 2016 01:23 AM #50

there we go, some effort!!

Nov 19, 2016 01:23 AM #51

@HawkChamp said:

Exp of the guards really helps this too

Nov 19, 2016 01:23 AM #52

Vick layup was an athletic one I've seen since BMac. Watch it again at half.

Nov 19, 2016 01:23 AM #53

Lucas playing much better tonight, those few minutes with Doke in went freshman like

Nov 19, 2016 01:24 AM #54

@BeddieKU23 said:

Helps to be playing Siena's front line

Nov 19, 2016 01:25 AM #55

@BShark

I agree but the type of bigs you face like Seina are the type that Lucas is smarter and understands what they are trying to do

Nov 19, 2016 01:26 AM #56

SHOT CLOCK VIOLATION

Nov 19, 2016 01:26 AM #57

Coach Self is going to make everyone make 1000 free throws before they go home for turkey day

Nov 19, 2016 01:28 AM #58

Josh!!!

Nov 19, 2016 01:29 AM #59

......

Nov 19, 2016 01:29 AM #60

Bragg with the rebound. Now that's progress.

Nov 19, 2016 01:30 AM #61

That's kinda how my 8 year old used to post up. 7 pivots. lol.

AMEN

Nov 19, 2016 01:30 AM #63

Not sure about that offensive foul on JJ....again

Nov 19, 2016 01:30 AM #64

theese refs hate josh

Nov 19, 2016 01:30 AM #65

LOL LANDEN

Nov 19, 2016 01:31 AM #66

Nice aggressive move by Carlton!! He is starting to get more involved

Nov 19, 2016 01:31 AM #67

Lucas seems to have regressed.

Nov 19, 2016 01:31 AM #68

wow landon that is so bad

Nov 19, 2016 01:32 AM #69

@BeddieKU23 said:

I'm starting to worry about a self-fulfilling prophecy where refs think Josh fouls a lot so they call crap fouls.

Nov 19, 2016 01:32 AM #70

These calls are stupid

Nov 19, 2016 01:32 AM #71

@BeddieKU23 said:

He lost his mind

Nov 19, 2016 01:33 AM #72

hes meant for the NBA game

Nov 19, 2016 01:33 AM #73

OH REFS

Nov 19, 2016 01:34 AM #74

okay these refs can go to freakin hell

Nov 19, 2016 01:34 AM #75

Graham, looks like Mario. Maybe even more athletic.

Nov 19, 2016 01:34 AM #76

Hello!

Nov 19, 2016 01:34 AM #77

Just mounted my new 65 in 4k TV :). now to enjoy some KU basketball.

Nov 19, 2016 01:35 AM #78

Hope JJ doesn't become frustrated by the refs.

Nov 19, 2016 01:36 AM #79

JJ (Dynomite) needs to figure out how to get transition buckets. Slashing in the 1/2 court game only works in the pros.

Nov 19, 2016 01:36 AM #80

@VailHawk Where you at bro?

Nov 19, 2016 01:37 AM #81

its really sad they are calling the game this way.

Nov 19, 2016 01:37 AM #82

@Eric-san Nice

Nov 19, 2016 01:37 AM #83

that was a nice pull up J by Graham though

Nov 19, 2016 01:38 AM #84

Dok and landon?

Nov 19, 2016 01:39 AM #85

Get the rebound!!!!

Nov 19, 2016 01:39 AM #86

3-pt shooting is officially a problem.

Shooting 25% so far tonight.

1/4 though so can improve yet

Nov 19, 2016 01:41 AM #87

It's still crazy to me how big Doka is.

Nov 19, 2016 01:42 AM #88

It's ridiculous that LL has carte blanch. I get loyalty, but he's not Wayne Simeon.

Nov 19, 2016 01:42 AM #89

Really thought the last miss from Svi was going in

Nov 19, 2016 01:42 AM #90

I don't think you're going to shoot 25% for the rest of the season when they shot 40%+ last year.

Nov 19, 2016 01:42 AM #91

damn it LAnden

Nov 19, 2016 01:43 AM #92

what the point of throwing the ball into lucas. its sad

Nov 19, 2016 01:43 AM #93

Landon can't make a b2b move and Siena is scoring off of it. Can we do something better?

Nov 19, 2016 01:43 AM #94

frank mason could make those shots against the bigs

Nov 19, 2016 01:44 AM #95

@BeddieKU23 said:

Bill is trolling us I hope

Nov 19, 2016 01:44 AM #96

Freshmen have committed 4 of our 6 fouls.

Nov 19, 2016 01:44 AM #97

Lucas is an issue. That's not a foot problem.

Nov 19, 2016 01:44 AM #98

Our defense has been subpar tonight. Got to have more focus.

Nov 19, 2016 01:44 AM #99

Saw this with EJ and TT.

If LL is the go-t0 in the tourney this year we exit in round 2.

Nov 19, 2016 01:45 AM #100

@BShark

we know its his fault, its the way we run offense. it looks like a great option until you throw it in and he eliminates his advantage all by himself

Nov 19, 2016 01:45 AM #101

I'm impressed by Siena's fight, but their starting five is going to get fatigued by the middle of the second half.

Nov 19, 2016 01:45 AM #102

Mason having a great first half that would be even better had his and 1 not have been taken away

Nov 19, 2016 01:45 AM #103

Carlton!!!

Can only hope but I'm not convinced we have the guns that bring the confidence level of the group up.

Hope so, but soon gonna have to prove it.

Nov 19, 2016 01:46 AM #106

Landen Lucas is a decent basketball player and a good human being.

** This is because google never forgets, and his children and grandchildren should know he is loved.

Nov 19, 2016 01:47 AM #107

THAT'S MITCH LIGHTFOOT'S MUSIC

Nov 19, 2016 01:47 AM #108

@Bwag Frank and Devonte can shoot it better

Nov 19, 2016 01:48 AM #109

seina has had at least a half dozen illegal screens in this half

Nov 19, 2016 01:48 AM #110

Azabuike needs to play and develop. Hopefully he comes along quickly. He's not gonna learn offensive moves from LL. Maybe positioning.

Nov 19, 2016 01:49 AM #111

Carlton has been very aggressive and looking to score. I like it

Nov 19, 2016 01:49 AM #112

@BeddieKU23 said:

Must no longer be a point of emphasis. We need to get Jamari to talk to these refs.

Nov 19, 2016 01:49 AM #113

@HawkChamp

yes hes been the best post we got

Nov 19, 2016 01:49 AM #114

@HawkChamp they're gonna have to prove it.

I think they'll improve.

Nov 19, 2016 01:49 AM #115

@BShark

almost every screen they set they are leaning with the body/shoulder and not even set

Nov 19, 2016 01:50 AM #116

@BShark

yeah its apparently all charges now

Nov 19, 2016 01:50 AM #117

Man Devonte has lost his shooting stroke. We would be 2-0 if we shot closer to last year's average.

Nov 19, 2016 01:51 AM #118

Nov 19, 2016 01:51 AM #120

1/7 for 16% from 3pt land.

It's becoming a thing.

Nov 19, 2016 01:52 AM #121

Vick jumps 29 feet in the air and it looks so effortless

Nov 19, 2016 01:52 AM #122

Not bad. Bill will make adjustments. JJ has to understand that by driving in college, folks aren't scared of getting on your mix-tape alone, they play defense, and you've got to get creative. Pick and roll, son. Lob.

Nov 19, 2016 01:52 AM #123

@Bwag

its a big concern but they are good looks and the guards have played a lot of minutes/tired legs this past week

Nov 19, 2016 01:52 AM #124

Yeah, if it persists after KU gets back to a normal travel schedule I will worry.

@BShark

hes got NBA everything. good lord can he fly.

Nov 19, 2016 01:55 AM #127

@Bwag As is the inability to stop penetration and protect the rim. They are getting a lot of shots close to the bucket.

Nov 19, 2016 01:55 AM #128

its a 10 point game but the refs ruined a lot of momemtum.

josh had multiple plays taken away, Mason as well.

Defense was good for good stretches after that initial shootout.

Nov 19, 2016 01:57 AM #129

@BShark if that's the excuse, then I'm concerned about March already.

I don't see us resting Graham and more so Mason much.

We've got to see our inside game pick up some slack.

Nov 19, 2016 01:57 AM #130

Carlton Bragg, 10 first half points. He's rebounding too. Looking good.

Nov 19, 2016 01:57 AM #131

It's ok everbody, the guys are saving their best shooting games for the tournament like Nova and North Carolina last year

The problem with that is Lucas and Doke can't create on their own and Bragg is a bit of a perimeter post player.

Nov 19, 2016 01:58 AM #133

@BeddieKU23 Duke did it the entire game. JJ's final foul was exactly that. Little wonder he was pissed. So was I.

Yeah I'm not too worried yet. This is a nice easy stretch to help the team coalesce.

Nov 19, 2016 02:00 AM #135

@globaljaybird

I'm tired of Josh being punished for how good he is. This type of stuff won't happen at the next level for him.

Nov 19, 2016 02:00 AM #136

@BShark Self said Udoka can, but why aren't we getting him the ball on the block?

Nov 19, 2016 02:01 AM #138

@BShark you nailed that.

Lucas isn't gonna get it

Azibuike will get it but is raw and the factor is learning timeline-this year or next, I'm pulling for his quick study

Bragg is the X-factor. We know he's got mid range. Is he gonna become an inside player when a strong inside game is needed.

Nov 19, 2016 02:01 AM #139

@HawkChamp said:

Doke is raw. He scored a few times against Duke but I don't think it will be very sustainable this year. Obviously he can dunk so there is that.

Nov 19, 2016 02:02 AM #140

Good to see Allen's bs play addressed by ESPN.

Nov 19, 2016 02:02 AM #141

@BShark

Bragg can at least finish inside which we know Lucas is falling apart trying to do. Bragg showing why scouts love him

Nov 19, 2016 02:02 AM #142

@brooksmd missed it

Yeah I have lots of hope for Bragg. People thinking he won't be gone I think are in for a rude awakening. I think Preston committed because he knows he will start.

Yepppp. The bright side is as mentioned KU has a nice stretch of games leading up to OU to help figure stuff out while presumably winning most if not all of them.

@HawkChamp said:

@BShark Self said Udoka can, but why aren't we getting him the ball on the block?

We need to, but it was a lotta ugly last game if he wasn't in close. I'm confident he'll learn, too athletic not to, but I'm concerned he doesn't have anyone to really show him. Will have to be tape of some ex players.

Nov 19, 2016 02:04 AM #146

@Crimsonorblue22 The real BS was all he ever got was a reprimand. Never a suspension. Should've been tossed from each game.

It'sgoing to be pretty fun to watch Doke develop.

Nov 19, 2016 02:05 AM #148

@Bwag

it would help if he puts himself in the right position to get the ball. he ran the floor like a deer on one play and could have gotten a lob off it. He's a work in progress but can rebound pretty well already and he alters shots

Nov 19, 2016 02:05 AM #149

need Danny back on staff to coach our bigs.

Nov 19, 2016 02:05 AM #150

Bragg 10 points and 6 boards. Niiiiiiice first half.

Nov 19, 2016 02:05 AM #151

@Bwag said:

He is definitely missed!

Nov 19, 2016 02:06 AM #152

if this team keeps progressing, a Bragg/Doke starting lineup is what would probably make this teams ceiling unstoppable

Nov 19, 2016 02:06 AM #153

Oh and these announcers haha. Of course Vick and Svi are playing big minutes. Josh has fouls and the bench is not deep

Nov 19, 2016 02:06 AM #154

Does Vick get FAA clearance before he goes up for jams?

Nov 19, 2016 02:06 AM #155

Step to the ball

Nov 19, 2016 02:06 AM #156

@BShark Did you see Minn vs Philly last nite-- Wiggs & Joel? They were having a blast...good friends. Wish we could get some of these whizz kids to stay in school long enough to roast 2 turkeys. :hourglass_flowing_sand:

Nov 19, 2016 02:06 AM #157

Time to put on the clamps

Nov 19, 2016 02:08 AM #158

@globaljaybird CB tonite?

Nov 19, 2016 02:09 AM #159

Lucas is a stud.....said no Kubucketeer ever.

Nov 19, 2016 02:09 AM #161

Missing wide open threes tonight

Nov 19, 2016 02:09 AM #162

DUMB FOUL

Nov 19, 2016 02:10 AM #163

Announcers didn't realize JJ just picked up his 3rd foul.

Nov 19, 2016 02:11 AM #164

Josh seems good at getting to the rim

Nov 19, 2016 02:11 AM #165

Mason with another three point miss

Nov 19, 2016 02:11 AM #166

@wissox Lucas is starting the season slowly, but he'll come around and be a huge contributor.

Nov 19, 2016 02:11 AM #167

we could avoid a lot of their junk points by doubling down on their center

@stoptheflop hopefully similar to last year

Nov 19, 2016 02:12 AM #169

@BeddieKU23 Bill probably would think that is the easy way to defend it

Nov 19, 2016 02:12 AM #170

I feel like Frank could jump over the average size guy

Nov 19, 2016 02:13 AM #171

@HawkChamp

we have doubled in the past, not understanding why we are not trying to force the ball to someone else.

Nov 19, 2016 02:13 AM #172

Bill is such a rascal. Self-imposed challenges are fun!

Nov 19, 2016 02:13 AM #173

There we go..keep getting Udoka the ball

Nov 19, 2016 02:15 AM #174

Doke smash

Nov 19, 2016 02:15 AM #175

Who is guarding Wright? This is embarrassing

Nov 19, 2016 02:16 AM #176

Udoka came into the game grabbing 50% of every available rebound in the first two games according to JNewell. The best rebounders at the end of the year are at 20%, He calls it the rebounding rate.

Nov 19, 2016 02:17 AM #177

like I said yesterday this is a letdown game

Nov 19, 2016 02:17 AM #178

Some defensive slides are in order tomorrow

Nov 19, 2016 02:17 AM #179

its just the nature of the beast

Nov 19, 2016 02:18 AM #180

we need a nice momentum 3 or dunk out this timeout? who gets it??

Nov 19, 2016 02:19 AM #181

@BeddieKU23 Bragg missed it

Nov 19, 2016 02:19 AM #182

@Bwag You in the dark again tonite ??

Nov 19, 2016 02:22 AM #183

@BeddieKU23 said:

Definitely. I was projecting only a 12-15 pt win

Nov 19, 2016 02:22 AM #184

@stoptheflop I'm not convinced.

I don't see a coach/core player meeting happening this year that gives him a superhuman confidence level. Hope I'm wrong.

What's the term: "Reversion to the mean"?

Nov 19, 2016 02:22 AM #185

Bragg and Mason have both made the wrong choice on those 3 on 1's.

People were pretty down on last year's team after the Okie Lite loss

Nov 19, 2016 02:24 AM #187

Dead ball 3pt make sighting.

Nov 19, 2016 02:24 AM #188

Too much over help again!!! Come on!!!

Nov 19, 2016 02:24 AM #189

We are guarding the three point shooters from the elbows.

Nov 19, 2016 02:24 AM #190

Graham fading left on that 3 attempt.

Nov 19, 2016 02:25 AM #191

some poor basketball out there

Nov 19, 2016 02:25 AM #192

Honor is our leading scorer tonight.

Nov 19, 2016 02:25 AM #193

Good drive and bounce pass dish there

Nov 19, 2016 02:27 AM #194

Man, some undisciplined basketball on display tonight. Oh boy

Nov 19, 2016 02:27 AM #195

@brooksmd I'm blacked out abt 4 of the next 6...Got it on tunein.com but the new guy sure as heck ain't Bob Davis...

Nov 19, 2016 02:28 AM #196

Down to 11% 3pt %

Nov 19, 2016 02:28 AM #197

FT% 61

Nov 19, 2016 02:29 AM #198

@Bwag maybe more shooting practice is in order?

Nov 19, 2016 02:30 AM #199

I suppose I underestimated just how much of a letdown this would be. Still plenty of time for these guys to man up but the last 5 minutes there looked like we are just trying to coast on talent alone

Nov 19, 2016 02:30 AM #200

which is probably okay for Coach as it gives him plenty to yell about:smile:

Nov 19, 2016 02:31 AM #201

It pisses me off that all/most of us are stuck watching one of the favorites to win it all with one of the projected top players in the country on our laptops/phones/computers, or whatever. We've discussed this idiot AD ADnaseum, but it's pretty sucky.

Nov 19, 2016 02:31 AM #202

lucas was a man on that play,

Nov 19, 2016 02:31 AM #203

Lucas playing good d here

@globaljaybird You don't have ESPN3 or ESPNWatch?

Nov 19, 2016 02:32 AM #205

Josh out there doing Josh things

Nov 19, 2016 02:33 AM #206

12 for 20 free throw shooting. That'll lose us some games.

Nov 19, 2016 02:33 AM #207

Thing about it we are learning to win the hard way without making any outside shots

Nov 19, 2016 02:33 AM #208

Lucas has 5 blocks

Nov 19, 2016 02:34 AM #209

@HawkChamp

or free throws

Bill is secretly happy.

Nov 19, 2016 02:35 AM #211

Josh looks very natural with his offense. He is going to score some points for us this year.

Nov 19, 2016 02:35 AM #212

@stoptheflop Second straight game we've stunk it up from FT and 3pt lines...

Nov 19, 2016 02:35 AM #213

As long as it's not a jump shot, Josh is money

Nov 19, 2016 02:36 AM #214

r u kidding me with that shot?

Nov 19, 2016 02:36 AM #215

Bank is open for Siena.

Nov 19, 2016 02:37 AM #216

3rd straight game we get torched from 3 land

Nov 19, 2016 02:37 AM #217

Devontae Graham shooting percentages

3pt shot: 0%
Just inside the line: 99%

Nov 19, 2016 02:37 AM #218

Devonte playing a little freer.

Nov 19, 2016 02:38 AM #219

maybe want to guard Wright. Nope not even attempting

Nov 19, 2016 02:39 AM #220

So why is Svi not playing?

Nov 19, 2016 02:39 AM #221

@BeddieKU23 No Jayhawk within 8 feet of him.

Nov 19, 2016 02:40 AM #222

@BShark I'm not down on us at all. We've got some major gaps needing filled. We're athletic as heck. Maybe that will be a ticket to success - if Self's - the system guy- head doesn't explode. :-).

Nov 19, 2016 02:41 AM #223

Wright is going to score 35 because we don't put anyone in his pocket.

Nov 19, 2016 02:43 AM #228

Nice guard play on the break

Nov 19, 2016 02:43 AM #229

Why can't we play with this type of effort all the time?

Nov 19, 2016 02:43 AM #230

A THREE!!!

Gonna be a problem all year

Nov 19, 2016 02:44 AM #236

Our 3-pt shooting from the corner set 3 may be our shot

Nov 19, 2016 02:44 AM #237

well if josh didn't foul so much we may have flexibility in subs but

Nov 19, 2016 02:45 AM #238

@BeddieKU23 that's a problem.

Self needs to or he's gonna be on the equivalent of crutches at end of year.

@BShark

your right

Nov 19, 2016 02:48 AM #244

Lol I love Graham

Nov 19, 2016 02:48 AM #245

so someone explain how Bragg wasn't shooting FT's after they called a foul?

Nov 19, 2016 02:48 AM #246

Bragg got pulled down on the loose ball. They called a foul. Should've been 1-1 I thought.

They said it was a foul and KU is in the bonus. That's why @BeddieKU23 and myself are baffled

Josh did whatever he wanted tonight, pretty good sign.

Nov 19, 2016 03:03 AM #276

@Bwag He also picked Dook to win, didn't he?

Nov 19, 2016 03:03 AM #277

@kjayhawks said:

For the first time in to long "Ladies and Gentleman, Welcome to the University of Kansas and to Allen Fieldhouse, Home of your Jayhawks". This game could stay interesting for a half or so, the line sets at 23 currently. I say Mason continues his legendary start to the season and JJ gets going early, Bragg gets his swagger back after hitting back to back 3s. Tyler Self scores late on a runner. Kansas 86 Siena 62.

I think maybe after my last few predictions I should go buy a lottery ticket lol

Nov 19, 2016 03:03 AM #278

@KUSTEVE yes he did.

Nov 19, 2016 03:03 AM #279

that was one of the things self said pre-season. maybe top to bottom most athletic team, can switch all 5 positions with certain lineups

Nov 19, 2016 03:04 AM #282

Vick with 12 pts and 8 boards pretty nice line.

Nov 19, 2016 03:04 AM #283

@BShark I still can't believe you did that. Oh ye of little faith...lol.

Nov 19, 2016 03:04 AM #284

@BShark

yes hes got to stop fouling though. he gets to play 30+ minutes and he's going to really punish teams

Yeah 30+ mpg of Josh is ideal.

Nov 19, 2016 03:05 AM #287

@BShark You can bet once JJ gets comfortable and really takes to heart how HCBS wants him to play, he will dominate games this year.

Nov 19, 2016 03:05 AM #288

i don't think there is a player in America that can stop Jackson, only himself

Nov 19, 2016 03:06 AM #290

@Bwag straight up. I have a documented 82% winning percent the past 13 years. I am only 67% so far this year, but I look to improve tremendously from here on out.

Nov 19, 2016 03:09 AM #291

@KUSTEVE I think Jesse is doing both straight up and point spread. I know where you're coming from though.

I know we can win every game.

I'm just not always convinced we WILL win every game.

Hardest ones are the ones we SHOULD win and don't

Nov 19, 2016 03:11 AM #292

Prediction: Siena will win some games in their conference with Wright and Ogunyemi getting buckets.

Nov 19, 2016 03:13 AM #293

@KUSTEVE 82% of the time it works every time!

Nov 19, 2016 03:15 AM #294

@KUSTEVE he doesn't publish his straight up TY v LY. Just against the spread.

Nov 19, 2016 03:15 AM #295

Nov 19, 2016 03:34 AM #302

Self has been on point in the presser.

"I didn't think we played very tough. I didn't think we played very fast. We looked slow defensively."

Didn't think the young big men were ready to play at all. Noticed it earlier in the day.

"Brain told our bodies we were tired."

Nov 19, 2016 03:35 AM #303

He did like Carlton's performance though.

Nov 19, 2016 03:39 AM #304

He mentioned they aren't really a team yet as well, which is pretty apparent.

Nov 19, 2016 03:41 AM #305

Unrelated to KU: Purdue needed a 20-0 run to beat Georgia State by 8. 64-56. Could be worse!

Half of the SEC basketball teams have lost at least once already. Something no other power-five league can say.

Thanks for the heads up. Will check it out next game. Jesse is a great dude. The Star got a damned coup with him and Bedore.
