Who's your Hawk to Rock?

@wissox Let's go wit da "Bulldog".

I'm picking DG since he seems to get up for Oklahoma.

Waiting for a game to end as usual.

Why is faylor fouling down 22 come on drew

Josh appears to get hammered on the RB

@wissox I was hoping they would put it on espn news

@HawkChamp They usually do. We haven't missed much so far.

@wissox hm. not sure. where is Oklahoma weak defensively? I hope Josh will go nuclear.

nifty little mini high low there.

WVU fans storming the court? Seriously?

@approxinfinity I don't read the scouting reports. They're young, not sure their weaknesses. Apparently interior defense so far doesn't look too hot.

!Screen Shot 2017-01-10 at 5.42.34 PM.png ↗

Bad defense by svi

@HawkChamp my wife just called him the weeniest fouler.

@wissox I congratulated some friends last night who are big Bama fans assuming they were going to win. Made this to assuage my guilt!

@approxinfinity that is an accurate description.

What was that?

Fran call the game! Josh have 2 fouls?

@Crimsonorblue22 Svi.

These guys turn it over when there is no pressure. What are they going to do against WVU?

Crazy, but I love that high hedge by lucas

@Crimsonorblue22 1 on JJ and SVI

My H2r

Nice athletic move by DG hmmmm

Nice break, enjoying this increase in pace.

@approxinfinity I've noticed that too. We're just not converting a whole lot.

Wonder what's wrong w/Woodard, so secretive! Speaking of where's @VailHawk

I think Fran is sick of the Jayhawks and the feeling is mutual

@Crimsonorblue22 Why the 😒 hmmm ?

DG from NBA range

💩

@Crimsonorblue22 theres woodard, on queue.

Fran makes me wanna earp ...

Embarrassing

Bragg playing like a freshman

It's such a shame to see empty seats at any KU game.

When was the last time JJ made a three? Seemingly hasn't converted any in 2017.

Sweet frank

Lots and lots of empty seats. OU fans don't support basketball.

2 points takedown.

What did u say Fran about Frank? Not realize about Frank huh? You💩

Doolittle helping Frank up... Nice guy award winner for the game.

@wissox last game

Shoulda been a foul on Frank.

@Crimsonorblue22 said:

What did u say Fran about Frank? Not realize about Frank huh? You💩

Earp ...

Is holly in the house?

@DanR yes

Yay, Holly!!!!

Who would have thought we'd have a 7 man rotation at the beginning of this year. I'll never think Bill might run more than 8 again.

Ll toughen up there🏀🏀🏀🏀

Ugly. Very ugly

Refs letting them play. 7 fouls total called. I kind of like that.

OU may suck but lets not forget Lou is still the coach.

@DanR Sounds great 👍 but just had chemo a few wks ago. If you google her, the story will touch you

@HawkChamp said:

Ugly. Very ugly

This team just isn't very good based on the results so far.

Damn Svi you gotta make that

@globaljaybird I've been following her ordeal. She's an inspiration

I loathe ESPN. Duke/Louisville taking up half the screen right now. That will appear about 8 times tonight.

hey hey mitch!

man how many rim shots is KU going to miss. Second thought half they fall.

Little walk there

@BShark true. They don't look experienced or hungry at all.

Pretty the way JJ filled the lane & FM flipped him the dime

@approxinfinity and a foul. Right on cue

How much weight do you guys think Josh will have to put on in the league? He's wirey, but his game at his weight is natural.

Coleby sighting.

Walk

Coach working on Mitch

@Crimsonorblue22 I thought so too. Foul instead.

@approxinfinity Jordan was thin

Shooting outside of AFH has been an issue.

Boards💩

is there a gremlin on that KU rim?

Whistles are out niw

Every other guard in D1 gets a foul on Frank's drive. What's up with these refs?

Refs starting to assert themselves since I posted the lack of calls like 3 minutes ago.

@wissox

It's all you.

@wissox why oh why did you mention it?

What was that?

We may set the record for illegal screens tonight.

@stoptheflop no excuse for it

9-3 foul count stripe shirts. We can't afford that

Fran coppin dueces ?!

@wissox

Hey it's a road game. KU fans have to live with it.

@wissox playing without fouling is not rocket science. This is the mental part of the game. Discipline is the key

@HawkChamp

Ah stay focused KU players.

Lon's team does have talent. That jump hook by Mcneese was pretty.

Getting outrebounded 21/18.

Weird that suddenly we're just driving wildly to the basket the last four possessions

FSU going to beat Duke probably. They are a legit team this year

The whole team is clearly injured. Frank with a shooters sleeve. He's hurt. Svi is dragging his left hand. Has a hang nail. Vick has had a leg injury to start the year which is why he wears spandex. He's just shot so well lately because he adjusted to his injury. Landen is hurt which is why he only has a 4" vertical. Bragg has sucked because he has scoliosis that came from lifting too many weights. Buke's injury is just fake because Bill doesn't play at least partially injured players and Buke was too durable of a guy so Bill made up this injury and won't play him or let him workout for 5 months so that way he can pull a muscle easier.

@stoptheflop

:rage:

Ok clanked a three back to normal

Fouls controlling pace. 9-4 In favor of OU.

Clank

This is ugly with a capital UG

I don't care what anybody says. SVi is a great passer.

This would be an extremely bad loss.

This team just plain sucks tonight and there is no cure

@BeddieKU23 Patience. I predict a run to open 2nd half.

Not cussing but what ????

Of course HIggins is calling this game. That explains a lot about the calls tonight.

Hopefully after this week we will have all our sucky games behind us. This season has not been very pretty at all

At the rate they're going they'll be none and done

Officials seem not to like us tonight. Wait to see if shot goes in then call foul?

We look terrible.

@BShark said:

This would be an extremely bad loss.

WILL be a bad loss

@BShark yes it would. This team has no fire or urgency. That's how it's been all year

@Texas-Hawk-10 said:

Of course HIggins is calling this game. That explains a lot about the calls tonight.

He does tend to have a KU hate boner

Nice shot vick falling backwards

@HawkChamp said:

Hopefully after this week we will have all our sucky games behind us. This season has not been very pretty at all

What???

Right on cue he gives up another 3

Where's Josh?

Getting blown out by a team that likely won't make the NIT.

@chriz ok, thanks for the heads up to ignore everything you post. Good lord

@DoubleDD you think we looked good against KSU? Or Indiana? Or Sienna?

@Crimsonorblue22 said:

Where's Josh?

Foul trouble

@Crimsonorblue22 said:

Where's Josh?

Foul trouble of course

@BShark said:

@BShark said:

WILL be a bad loss

You wrote that when we were down 5. You've never seen a team come back from 5 points?

Seem so disengaged

From wild drives to bad 3s.

Lucas

2nd half will not be like this ... HCBS will assert attitude adjustments accordingly

Nice rebounding

@HawkChamp said:

@DoubleDD you think we looked good against KSU? Or Indiana? Or Sienna?

That's like 3 games. It's a long season.

@HawkChamp said:

@DoubleDD you think we looked good against KSU? Or Indiana? Or Sienna?

Or UNLV or TCU

Hey let's run some weave

OU still with fouls to give. Pitiful

@DoubleDD said:

@HawkChamp said:

@DoubleDD you think we looked good against KSU? Or Indiana? Or Sienna?

That's like 3 games. It's a long season.

Don't worry you would probably have to go back months to find the last positive thing he said abouto the team

looked like 2 goal tends in a row.

@BShark correct. I listed a few I remembered.

LID ON BUCKET SYNDROME

Worst half of the season.

They get the small basket in the second half!

Typical half can't get any worse so I expect we come outo ready to play

@BShark said:

@HawkChamp said:

@DoubleDD you think we looked good against KSU? Or Indiana? Or Sienna?

Or UNLV or TCU

And KU still won ??? It happens.

Basket interference if KU puts a nail on the ball in on the rim.

2 points for OU if they tip it in while on rim ?

Refs trying to punish Kansas for their terrible miss of Svi's travel. " look, we don't favor Kansas--see?"

Just to the naysayers KU will win this game too.

@DoubleDD yes but those are games we should dominate not scrape by. With a veteran group that returns three starters from the elite eight team, that is not too much to expect.

@DoubleDD going to be even longer if we keep playing like this and get beat by the teams we should beat

If we can get back to our scoring average in second half we'll be okay. Our d isn't good, per usual, but its our O that has sucked abnormally.

Worst half of the season by far. Missing easy shots not rebounding, and foul trouble has us where we are. We will see if we are a 2nd half team or not

On a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being a joke we are at 15

@approxinfinity

Very true. Besides mason and Graham who even showed up on offense. We shot 2 ft I think

Getting out worked in glass and missing shots they usually make and not playing d as usual.

!IMG_4300.PNG ↗

@approxinfinity and that's why you can't rely on making shots. These guys aren't good enough to do that. You have to focus first on stopping the other team

@DanR said:

@chriz ok, thanks for the heads up to ignore everything you post. Good lord

Huh? Did I miss something?

@DoubleDD said:

Just to the naysayers KU will win this game too.

I would be surprised.

@HawkChamp said:

@approxinfinity and that's why you can't rely on making shots. These guys aren't good enough to do that. You have to focus first on stopping the other team

Need more toughness.

Espn talking heads not watching the game? Because they just said a lot of good things about our players that are playing in poop so far tonight

@BeddieKU23 said:

Probably weren't

@chriz said:

Jackson doing his best Wiggins impersonation.

@approxinfinity

UM lou has something to with that. I mean he's not the greatest but he can coach.

how ya liking the game so far boys? - -let me say it for ya - -they playing like shit - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@Blown This is one of those nights where a small line up is punishing KU on the glass. OU is getting 50% of the offensive rebounding opportunities, that is not a good thing.

@Blown said:

Jackson doing his best Wiggins impersonation.

Did you forget the team minus mason and Graham in that post..

@Texas-Hawk-10 and Bragg and ll aren't helping

Nothing from DG, Svi, Bragg, Vick and JJ. Place is half empty come on boys wake up.

Just like Al Davis used to say, "Just win Baby"

Guys and Gals get used to it. The Big 12 is a tough conference and every team/school wants to stop KU from History immortality.

Every game is going to be tough.

@Texas-Hawk-10 OU sending 3 to glass on all shots and we are clearing out moving on to transition d.

@BeddieKU23 ya but I didn't want to put in the effort (rim shot)

What the crap. Gonna get blown out of the gym by the worst team in the league.

@cragarhawk Not the worst with Woodard back.

@Blown KU moving into transition D has nothing to do with giving up 50% offensive rebounding rate to KU. KU is already on defense for these attempts and just doing a very poor job of not giving OU second chances.

FSU is killing Duke

Call me crazy, but I still like our chances to win by about 15.

@Texas-Hawk-10 said:

@Blown KU moving into transition D has nothing to do with giving up 50% offensive rebounding rate to KU. KU is already on defense for these attempts and just doing a very poor job of not giving OU second chances.

Yeah 50% is NUTS

@DanR said:

@chriz said:

As opposed to one and done by Baylor? Meaning KU looking like they'll lose even before they get #1? No?

The good news is I reloaded on Reserve. Knew I'd need it between KU, Chiefs Playoffs and the inevitable dismantling of the Royals.

@BShark

Come on feel the greatness. Fell History in the making.

Rock Chalk.

LL on his way to a double double and tied for team lead in assists with a whopping 2. He shouldn't be left out of the discussion of who's helping tonight.

@wissox JJ hit one three last game I think.

@mayjay don't think he's scored though. Unless ft's

@approxinfinity Lid on the basket

12 years of success in the Big 12, 12 years of perfect sweetness, we had a recipe for success, defense and win ugly. The recipe has changed in Self's words, his worst defensive team and best offensive team. The recipe has changed, lets hope the dish doesn't taste too salty.

Man OU fans are going to be sad tonight.

@DoubleDD said:

Man OU fans are going to be sad tonight.

Let's hope so

I'm mad that self is not red in the face

@Crimsonorblue22 said:

@mayjay don't think he's scored though. Unless ft's

No, but I think we aren't prepared for the fluidity he helps add.

@Bwag I checked that out. Thanks. He has threes in two straight games. He's never made more than one in a game except once. That's alarming for a small forward.

@BeddieKU23 I said this to my wife, why is he not more mad?

D and then a 3!

Finally!

And it begins.

A 3 a rebound a foul good start

Go

Svi continues to get beat on d and boards.

KU can explode at any time

Wooo

I likey

DG!!!

Jackson, there is a reason you are that open.

Great start to the half.

Jackson oops- DG!!

great d svi

Here comes the boom...

Finally a little defensive pride and the rebound. Where was this earlier?

@DoubleDD you called it👍

LOU calling the what the He double hocky sticks timeout.

@Blown said:

Jackson, there is a reason you are that open.

Looked like a good shot, is he your man crusher tonight

@DoubleDD true dat. Good energy right now. Need to keep the foot on the gas

@Blown said:

Svi continues to get beat on d and boards.

Made a 3 and got a rebound. Different half

That must have been one H E double hockey sticks of a halftime speech.

@wissox definite area of improvement needed. The defense is beginning to give him that shot.

@BeddieKU23 you are kidding right? He has one of the worst outside shots on the team. His mechanics are terrible.

Love seeing Svi knock down a 3, get a rebound and lock down d next possession. He's a multifaceted player that at times goes Andres Nocioni on us and just wants to camp in a corner and launch 3s. Stay active Svi!

@Blown said:

@BeddieKU23 you are kidding right? He has one of the worst outside shots on the team. His mechanics are terrible.

So he missed a shot he also set up 2 baskets this half that forced a timeout

@DoubleDD why do u call him Lou?

@approxinfinity

Those that think SVI is coming back. I'm not so sure. KId is balling.

WVU fan just told me to just STFU. Here's what I wrote on the game thread. "HaHa, WVU fans storm the court after beating Baylor. That's as pitiful as it is funny."

@BeddieKU23 all I am saying is he needs to stop taking 3's

Wow what a turn

@wissox

Storming the court after beating Baylor

:laughing: :laughing:

OU would tough if they could shoot.

@Blown said:

@BeddieKU23 all I am saying is he needs to stop taking 3's

In rhythm 3s have been his best shot from deep he has to know when to take them

Sorry guys. I'm stuck in Mancrappen again. It doesn't bode well for the Hawks that I'm here (lost last year). But I'm shedding my meeting outfit and changing into my KU garb. Hopefully It'll spurn a turnaround. On the bright side I'm staying in the same hotel as the KU women's basketball team.

Mason going after the bball is like my cocker spaniel going after a tennis ball

Mason with the "Grown Man" move to the basket, nice!

@dylans

Bad luck doesn't stop this KU team.

Looks like Sooners have some bigs, and are running the secondary break to make of for their lousy outside shooting.

POY

POY

And then Frank took one to iron

UM don't show up Mason

Bitch, I'm Frank Mason!!!

@dylans u talking to me?

@wissox making his case tonight

@wissox said:

POY

I'm gonna miss Frank.

Frank Sherron mason tonight in norman

Super look to find the OAD

That elbow hook move to the basket is getting old. It's an offensive foul.

@Crimsonorblue22 Heck no sweetie!

@BeddieKU23 shades of Sherron!!!

@Crimsonorblue22 You are too funny!

What is OU's record?

KU is far from a perfect team. Yet they can explode at anytime. Even Coach said this is his best offense team ever.

That's saying something.

Landen's D ain't great but glad he's staying out of foul trouble

Jackson shooting 28% from 3 this year.

Shouldn't have trashed talked frank

Hot damn Is Frank rocking OR WHAT !?

@jaybate-1.0

6-8

@Bwag

Thx.

Uh-oh.

@jaybate-1.0 DOn't know. I'll go to one of those background check sites.

0-3 in big 12(-2)

@Bwag Adjusting to life without their Buddy!

@Blown said:

Jackson shooting 28% from 3 this year.

Just slightly worse than his FT%

But I'll still take him and his T's.

@globaljaybird That's what competitors do!

@jaybate-1.0 Kentucky struggled earlier against 8-7 vanderbilt. It happens

@DanR do u think he says bifm to his defenders?

Oh boy, Bragg in

@Crimsonorblue22 He should!

If there is a better PG right now idk where how about Frank

Mason 53% from 3 this year. UNREAL

Man Mason can jump. I'd kill myself doing that.

I don't think JJ should shoot 3's

I would've never guessed when we first landed Frank that he'd be this good. His shooting has dramatically improved, maybe even over last year

@DoubleDD said:

Man Mason can jump. I'd kill myself doing that.

I would kill myself before trying.

@wissox said:

I don't think JJ should shoot 3's

I think Svi should shoot 3's

JJ flop?

The sound of the net on Svi"s 3 hurt my eardrum! But I liked it!

Smart josh

Bonus coming soon wooo

@Bwag said:

@Blown said:

POY

@Blown said:

Mason 53% from 3 this year. UNREAL

I would have called anyone that would have predicted this in his FR year crazy. Kid has put in WORK on his shot.

Bifm ain't missing two in a row

Let get 40 Frank! Keep shooting!

@Texas-Hawk-10 not disagreeing. But he needs to play to his strengths. That's all I'm saying.

Duh buddy u dropped it!🏀🏀

Josh's shots really come off the iron hard from trey, when he misses. Who wants to be the shot doctor and say what he needs to change?

OK ESPN, thanks for reminding me that there's a Duke game coming up

Carlton Bragg needs to get big underneath the basket!

@BShark Frank shot over 40% from 3 soph year though. He is a legend in Petersburg.

@DanR

Help me out (been drinking) What does Bifm mean?

Frank is unreal tonight. Making his case for POY. A 40 point night would help

Bragg' s D freaks me out. Why is he hopping around all over the place?

@DoubleDD google "redhead bifm"

@jaybate-1.0 really low release

@KansasComet Bragg got a hockey check. No foul call of course.

Frank looks like he is on the Psi frontier again.

@Blown swish...

@approxinfinity said:

@BShark Frank shot over 40% from 3 soph year though. He is a legend in Petersburg.

I was thinking he might be serviceable but over 50% from three is elite.

@jaybate-1.0 succinctly as possible, his release point and he has too much movement in his elbow up and down.

@jaybate-1.0 not shoot ball from belly area?

@stoptheflop Refs have generally helped us out this half I think you'd agree.

@DanR very little defensive discipline

@stoptheflop No doubt. He has got to get physical as well.

Frank only one in double digits right now with 24.

Jesse had him shooting for his season high around 30 as hawk to rock

If frank gets over 30 he will get press for POY. More than he's currently getting

@drgnslayr I think we found our emotional leader when things are not going well. Absolutely putting them on his back

@wissox Yes, they are actively evening out the first half disparity.

The medical team seems to be forming a diagnosis that kind of hangs together on Josh's shooting pathology.

@chriz said:

OK ESPN, thanks for reminding me that there's a Duke game coming up

And today's was so much fun!

Bragg dumb shot

There you go Bragg, way to get big in there!

@BeddieKU23

My words exactly. I literally said that

Higggggggins

Lol ref. Made up something to call

Refs taking over.

Wouldn't it be funny if Duke's tripper tripped Capell for taking him out?

@stoptheflop Has to get tougher

And here come the whistles

@KansasComet good defense that time

3 calls against Kansas in 20 seconds. Damn!

I hate when refs want to grab the spotlight...

Refs saw the fouls going one way. They quickly corrected at

@DanR

The Home whistles?

@mayjay said:

@chriz said:

OK ESPN, thanks for reminding me that there's a Duke game coming up

It was beautiful!

@DanR VIck fouled him methinks

Hey announcers tell us the foul counts

@jaybate-1.0

That's funny I don't care who you are.

@jaybate-1.0 lol

One more for bonus. Betcha ou gets there too soon

@BeddieKU23 For sure!

Total fouls is KU 13 Ou 11

Mason

@HawkChamp

Okay, that little 9 foot floaters; that IS the form Josh needs to duplicate from trey.

Yes Mason!

How many times I going to write this? POY

Some one call the fire department. Mason is on fire.

Mason in the house...and the zone...

Mason AGAIN!!

Damn Lucas

Boards much better, Josh nice pass to ll

Holy crap Frank. total control.

3rd and 4th FT's of the game for the Jayhawks coming up. IN other words in 30 minutes we've shot 2.

Who figured I would EVER like watching the weave?

That little floater of Josh's' that is the key to superstardom. He's got to build his wrists, forearms and that muscle that runs up the back of your arm above the elbow. Do that and he can shoot a 25 foot floater. That is the ticket.

@DanR jj

Giving up wide open threes again. :anguished:

Fran says the 4 out and 1 in has been played for ever.

:laughing: :scream:

Propose we change "Hawk to Rock" to "Hawk besides Mason to Rock"

@DanR that was almost ugly weave

Speaking of makeup calls tonight, Fran is having a nice makeup call in avoiding the KU hate

@approxinfinity

I had to think about it, but I get. LOL

Who wins ft contest --Shaq or JJ?

@Blown jj

@DanR

Here is a quote that might explain your increasing receptivity to the weave.

"Through clever and constant application of propaganda people can be made to see paradise as hell, and also the other way around, to consider the most wretched sort of life as paradise.”
--Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, 1923

Jackson is hot from the line. Call espn he's at 75% tonight

@Blown said:

Who wins ft contest --Shaq or JJ?

Ben Wallace :smirk:

@Blown said:

Who wins ft contest --Shaq or JJ?

Wilton...

Shaq or doke?

@Blown said:

Who wins ft contest --Shaq or JJ?

Dwight howard

Love seeing Jackson slash. If he could just make em pay consistently at the line it would be a dynamite weapon

@Blown Love seeing him hit free throws too!

@BShark

OK that was good. :thumbsup:

@Blown that's what makes Kentucky so tough. Fox and Briscoe drive it all the time

@approxinfinity said:

@Blown Love seeing him hit free throws too!

I literally pray sometimes when he's at the line

@jaybate-1.0 I almost liked that hitler quote, damn you.

It appears Coleby and Bragg are pretty quiet tonight. Self has decided to see if his half pints can rebound with some telephone poles.

@wissox You asked & I replied-Frank is the hawk to rock!

@Blown

That is his game, penetrate Nd dominate...leave the 3 point shooting to others.

Foot on throat, now!!

I play in a league where you pick a bb player once to use for the week. This week I picked Frank.

Do it again!👏👏👏👏

@globaljaybird Duly noted

@DanR

I agree. I hate finding that sunnuvabitch ever said anything insightful.

@DoubleDD said:

@BShark

OK that was good. :thumbsup:

If I'm not mistaken he is the worst all-time by percentage and he took at least a couple thousand.

So does Lucas get drafted?

Finish Them!

Late to the party. Frank has how many? Baylor lose?

@DoubleDD said:

So does Lucas get drafted?

Europe maybe. I hope so for him if that's what he wants to go pro in.

@KUSTEVE

Smart man

I missed Coleby coming in. What kind of tool did Self use to de-ice him?

@RockChalkinTexas said:

Late to the party. Frank has how many? Baylor lose?

Frank has approximately ALL THE POINTS.

Graham while not scoring much tonight has been stellar

Pedal to the metal, balls to the walls...no mercy...

@DoubleDD said:

So does Lucas get drafted?

Not in a milli9n years

27 and yes

Did jj touch him?

Had meetings and just now checking in. Really, down 9 at half? And, Frank has been the offense? Only player in double figures until the last minute or so??? Baylor crashed and burned, so win tonight and this weekend and we are probably #1???

@Crimsonorblue22 said:

Did jj touch him?

Body while sliding.

@jaybate-1.0 well, hitler didn't bomb Florence supposedly because he wanted to paint a bridge, so he had a few questionably redeeming qualities maybe

@chriz said:

OK ESPN, thanks for reminding me that there's a Duke game coming up

I had just forgotten, ESPN. Thanks again.

Svi defends at an optional rate

Where the weak side?

You know I'm going to miss JJ. The first OAD I think I developed a man crush on.

@RockChalkinTexas Baylor lost by a ton

Well except the loin killer man do I love that kid.

Woodard is pretty good

@DoubleDD

Really good question. I think he needs a little marketing help to get drafted. My advice is this: Move to Cameroon the day the season ends, change his name to Noel Embiid, learn to say "I have a lot of potential and have only started playing basketball after playing soccer for five years. And I kill lions."

Pulling for Frank to get 30

Lazy defense tonight

Frank's baseline pass to half court just out of reach of teh D, then sprinting to the corner 3 to get the pass back and drill it. Man!

This game would be a loss and not a 15 point lead without Frank, but that's like saying Mario Andretti's car wouldn't win without Mario Andretti.

On the side of the ESPN box is this quote: "Oklahoma head coach Lon Kruger happy with the way his team played in the first half" Happy for Lon.

@approxinfinity

Tonight Mason. Next game JJ. The following game Svi. It's just keeps raining in KU land.

Frank's got 27 so far.

That was an example of the weave instead of the chop. The ball was being given to the guy who goes outside. The weave is for delay. The chop is for attacking inward. There endeth the lesson.

Higgins!

Pretty sure the shot clock bs is just an excuse for Higgins air time

With Trae Young in the house, I wonder if Bill gives Frank more of a green light than usual

Announcers trying to wil Oklahoma to come back...

Can't believe James missed that

@chriz is he?

@chriz no Bill follows Franks lead these days !!

Wow that's a foul

@BeddieKU23 sucks!

Clean block...

All Ball!!!! Whatever Ref!

What I like about Self barely showing Coleby and Bragg is that Huggie is watching and saying, "Awwwww !@#$%^, he just did that to make us have to prepare for it. I know Self. He'll stay small on us all the way. But he's just pimping us with Coleby and Bragg.

@wissox

Ah man just reread some of my post been saying lOU all night. NOw I feel like a :facepunch:

Finish that!

Announcers talking about the 77 variations of the foul call = THESE DAMN RULES SUCK AND THEY ARE JUST MAKING IT UP AS THEY GO

Nice block Landen. BS.

Is young there?

Lucas would have 40 if he didn't miss those bunnies

@DoubleDD Sorry, not catching your drift?

@DoubleDD your permanent place!

@Crimsonorblue22 lol

@DanR ugh

LL has to have missed 6 or 7 flat out bunnies

Was that Lightfoot Bill was chewing on, or the Ukrainian Kid?

@kjayhawks Lattins not bad

@kjayhawks does he remember that the ncaa allows dunking?

Glad LL can hit his free throws

@jaybate-1.0 Lightfoot in the first half

Landen misses so many bunnies that he must be allergic to rabbit fur.

@kjayhawks he's hacked like crazy, but it's frustrating

I want Fran to say bifm! He owes him from last year

We trailed by 9 @ the 1/2?

I worked too much outside and wore myself out. Was 80 today after bein 14 for the low 2 days ago. Freaky weather.

@jaybate-1.0 PHOF!

Lucas perfect from the line

Svi pass that?

Dg

If JJ made all the dunks he's missed. He'd be the best dunker ever. That's alright I love the junk yard attitude

JJ making his charities

@wissox

Thankee kindly. Its the Wisconsin cheese curds I had shipped in and have been eating to many of during the game.

Fran stop talking!

1 pt game in Lubbock

OU is going to be tough the next couple years

@jaybate-1.0

That my friend is a gut buster. :thumbsup:

@Crimsonorblue22 I just mute them and listen to music.

Wasn't Fran supposed to be doing games back east this season? I thought we had been given an injection of pennicilin and gotten rid of the little cork screw.

What

JJ from the line!

Hey McNease... Baby I got Jamuni!

@Crimsonorblue22 Could not agree more. What a KU Hater!

Keep the hammer down, fellas

getting lax here. Dumb goal tend. Wild shot. We better be careful

Bad shot,OU score. Turnover, OU score

Anyone here going to Rupp in a few weeks ?

@Blown

Why you got any free tickets?

We should stop being cute and finish

KU letting OU score >70 is professional curtesy from one Okie Baller to another.

Trae Young is noticing more Jayhawks in the stands than Sooners.

Frank putting Josh on the spot and saying let's see you drain a trey, rook.

Boy not closing out well at all. Good thing this is just OU and not Baylor or ISU

@DoubleDD nope just mulling over the trip. Don't want to be attacked alone lol

The pace difference between this game and the KSU TTU game is unreal.

@jaybate-1.0 he should not have passed it to him

Self needs to lose that UNC tie.

@HawkChamp

come on playing those team is a different game.

Dookies lost?

@DanR He's got the post of the night. At halftime when all of the rest of us were crying and quitting on the team here's what he wrote:

"Call me crazy but I still believe we're going to win by 15". Way to go Dan! The ultimate optimist!

Okay Graham go ahead and tell OU a good night story and turn out the lights.

@jaybate-1.0 oof. You're right about that tie

@RockChalkinTexas yep

Its like some kind of signal to Roy. See Roy, Lonnie is running your secondary break stuff. See Roy, we do respect you.

@RockChalkinTexas yep!

Wow. Number 13 is going to be the hardest one to win. What a competitive league this year.

To all and anyone. I don't care what you think KU won. :kissing_heart:

@DoubleDD Tell'em.

@jaybate-1.0 I noticed that also

Today's fan of the game is: @DoubleDD

He never lost faith and clearly led the comeback. Good job, DD!

...and this is how you get it done!!!

Frank smiled during a game.

That's right up their with a solar eclipse.

@wissox I'm fine with 11!

We're going into Ames on a BIg MOnday with a #1 ranking! It'll be sweet to beat them.

Main complaint--tired of missing the first 3-4 minutes of the game routinely because of the scheduling. It's a tired theme.

@Blown I watched on my ESPN app

@Blown I watched it on ESPN 3. Great picture and audio.

@RockChalkinTexas yeah- couldn't trip anyone tonight

For a change, someone tripped Duke earlier....

@Blown

You're in my wheel house with that statement. :rage:

Free throws were 83%. 15/18. Maybe we are practicing

@stoptheflop Doke isn't shooting 5 0r 6 of them every game is helping too.

@wissox

Love it calling the game before tipoff.

:cry: It's like we are family.

Did we play that crappy the first half? Gonna have to rewatch it tomorrow.

Come on Tech, beat KSUcks.

@wissox it's true. And Landen hasn't been great from the line but at least he feels competent

Are you preparing for next August 21's total eclipse. Right over my head here in SC!

@approxinfinity

You know I think LL gets drafted. I just do.

A lot of good games tonight to watch. Maryland Indiana going at it

Leggo TT!

@Blown

I'm pissed at the Hoosiers. They beat KU then What? Nothing. Man

@wissox where is stupid michael?

@DoubleDD they got Creaned

@DoubleDD water under the bridge when we take care of business against OK St and are #1 next week

@RockChalkinTexas No def 1st half & couldn't hit the ocean Took the lid off at half & scored about 10 straight outta the chute. Frank was hot as a $2 pistol - the entire game

@approxinfinity

Fair enough. :thumbsup:

@globaljaybird

I'm telling ya and all. KU can explode at anytime. Even Coach has said this KU team can play like crap then rattle off 20 points unhindered.

@HawkChamp He's scared!

...Only Townsend got distracted by a little guard dribbling circles around everyone else, including McLaughlin.

That night he called Ty White, the coach of the guard he'd never heard of.

"Hey, that little kid, the kid with the braids, does he always play like that?"

"Coach", White responded, "every day."

BIFM

TTU and KSU going down to the wire...

@JayHawkFanToo

It should both those teams can shoot the round ball.

@JayHawkFanToo Did Allen trip Coach Rat, and send him to the hospital with an aching back?

And 3 steps from the wildcat on that drive

A mighty nice win. Nice and easy. Not a lot of sweating. Vick got a nasty one out of the way, so he should be ready to go. Landen looked comfy playing heavy minutes.Devonte's 4-10 and 3-8 from trey shooting and lack of blocks still makes me worry about his leg, but he grabbed 5 reebs, and wasn't shooting so many set shots. Frank was gold from trey (5-6), but he got a little inefficient driving winding up 11-20. Svi? He got on the glass for 9, found 5 assists, and guarded okay, but no blocks. He was also teetering on the edge of being Svi Brickailiuc at 4-10 with 3-7 from trey. Where is that a great outside shooter we once hoped for?. Josh from trey was like Nowhere Man by the Beatles living in a nowhere land even with nobody on him. Josh got 16 inefficient points and just couldn't snag many rebounds (3). He's got to get better. That was a sub 500 team that just turned off the gas on his burner. Bragg? Carlton who? Bragg was nowhere man inside. Coleby didn't even get the cryo ice off him before he was back in the freezer. Coleby gets the Hunter Michelson Cryogenic player of the year. Lightfoot? Self seemed to be testing which guy froze, thawed out, and froze the fastest. Still, a tidy road win against a team that guards and was +2 on the glass with us. Very soon, I hope Josh understands it is going to get a whole lot harder and faster. The blue meanies are coming shortly now.

Squeaky got teed...

Squeaky got a T :smile:

@HawkChamp I haven't seen him since I looked at the KUSports live chat a year or two ago. He was chatting there.

@approxinfinity

I know you get props all the time. Yet thanks again for giving us KU fans a place to nest.

Squeaks you dodo costing your team points at game point

Wonder if squeaks will say "everybody knows what happened I got a 100 messages wanna see em " in his post game ?

Crazy end to the KState TT game. Webber got a technical that likely cost the cats the game. Watch the last minute if you can find it.

@DoubleDD thanks man. Just happy to hang out and talk about Kansas with you guys.

@Blown Now that is a PHOF if there ever was one! Times 10!

kSU losses two road games by a total of 3 points...I would be squeaking too...

Chris Beard is legit!

@approxinfinity and repping his under armour front and center

@KUSTEVE

OMG I love it. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

@jaybate-1.0

Last I checked 3 of 7 is 0.43...I'll take it...

@KUSTEVE

Coach K is in for a backbone replacement; apparently the one he has has turned to spaghetti...

Thought Svi hit the boards second half really well!

@JayHawkFanToo he will have 3 of 7 games and he will have 4 of 5 games. Variances happen in sports. Next

@Crimsonorblue22 he did. much better energy to start the second half.

Well night Jayhawk nation. I love guys and gals.

Not sure why? :heartpulse:

Post game
Self radio post #kubball on halftime "it wasn't the speech, it was just that the guys were embarrassed"

Post game
Self: I didn't think our bench was any good.

Said Lagerald was good for 2-3 minutes only. Carlton put himself in foul trouble.

@DoubleDD Cuz we are Jayhawkers man!!!!!

@DoubleDD Cause some of us believe like you.

@DanR it drives me crazy because it looks like he could dunk half of them. He doesn't play like a 6'10 kid on offense. I like him but we will need those at some point.

@JayHawkFanToo

Its good enough.

Tale of two half's tonight forsure, but I'll take a double digit road win anytime.

@Crimsonorblue22 we were talking about LL and some his misses right in close.

How did you do that?

@Crimsonorblue22 said:

He edited your post...not cool without permission...

Post game

Self says every team in the country wishes they had a player who can take over a game like Mason.

@JayHawkFanToo I don't get mad about that

@Crimsonorblue22

I have fixed posts, links and such for other posters before, but only when requested or after getting permission...just the way I roll...

@JayHawkFanToo I agree. I think that's the proper etiquette.

That said, i have almost accidentally made changes to a post by clicking the wrong link, so it might not have been intentional.

@bskeet pretty sure it wasn't intentional, not a big deal.

Coach ripped em a new one at halftime. I look for that to carry over in the upcoming game against the Pokies.

@KUSTEVE all the articles talk about that, what coach wouldn't have done the same?

@Crimsonorblue22 Other coaches can only imitate- there's only one Bill Self.

I've done it before as well. I thought I hit reply and hit edit somehow. I assume it was accidental. @JayHawkFanToo @Crimsonorblue22

@dylans

Not really a big deal since the bottom of the post shows who edited it and when it was done.
