Famous people from Waco.
Some of the losses to good teams were without the 7 footer.
Baylor took a step back this year, but they aren't a bad team. Of their six losses, five are to ranked teams and their only questionable loss is the ISU loss, and even that was at Hilton. Not sure what to make of this Baylor squad. They lack the perimeter scoring that would probably have pushed them past a couple of those ranked teams. They are a dangerous team, but not good. Could make some noise in the NIT, but not an NCAA tournament team.
@justanotherfan 2nd, 3rd & 5th are clones, and 1 and 4, too. 6 is a combo of all.
@JayHawkFanToo Children of the Corn--filmed in Waco?
@Texas-Hawk-10 Looking at some of their players, James is shooting 11% better from 3 and averages more in every stat. I'd say he improved.
@mayjay @JayHawkFanToo @drgnslayr the family tree that does not branch...davidians?
At least Koresh finally quit smoking...
...when the firefighter put the fire out.
I know, bad joke...
Mine too but I just can't help it. For some reason when you put branch and davidians together I just giggle... Bad person perhaps. Lol
Think Texas can beat tt tonight?
Fisher out for year at tcu w/ knee injury, sucks for him
Wrist injury ended his season early last year. Poor guy!

Well there goes their season.
ESPN has it as being out indefinitely but not much time left until March Madness so yes, likely out for the season. We will see how the team does playing ISU at home.
Texas has the rivalry thing going but I doubt it can beat TTU.
Ttech could have trouble with Bamba. If they have an off nite from Trey I could see the upset
As always, nice photo compilation @wrwlumpy. I thought, my golly, why would every player not want to go to this magical place until I got to the final pictures (of the coach). Oh, right.

This! π
@Crimsonorblue22 Yes
Another zone team where Vick will have to decide to turn around and shoot a short jumper from the free throw line or pass. Forget about Washington and ASU. I think we will have a parade for the "Mitch-Slapper" after this one.
18 super fast points then 2 points in over 3 minutes. Jekyll and hyde team.
Game of runs
Sounds messy. I really like our chances in this game though.
Malik Newman floor burnin.
Great effort from Malik today. Love that play even though it is a foul.
Not sure why they even bother to guard Garrett, Just not a good shooter yet. More Silvio please, and maybe a side of Sam.
Svi is very active and has the dunk and a couple of 3s, but he missed another dunk and three lay-ups. If he really learns how to finish, he could turn out to be a decent player... ;)

I will be surprised if Cunliffe gets into this game, unless it is out of hand late.
Garrett definitely needs to work on his shot. Just a complete non-shooter at this point. If he can improve it like Releford did though, to just be able to can open looks, it would do wonders for him. He is already so good at the little things.

That one lay-up was ridiculously wide open too. I couldn't believe he missed it.
We can't hit anything right now.
Hack a Dok is an effective strategy against us
Malik showing nice hustle and can make FTs
If they really start doing it well one they will have guys foul out but two Self would pull Doke for a bit.

Impressed with his effort today. I think he "gets it" now.
@StLJhawk I hope we don't see it either but until the rules are changed it is a viable strategy. If it does happen in a game the one big benefit is it gets you to the bonus very quickly, so it helps our other players as well if they get fouled. We've been a lot better about playing aggressively to get fouled since halftime against TTU.
@RockChalkinTexas Looking at those stats, you would think we would be blowing them out...
2nd chance pts
@Crimsonorblue22 Achilles heel for this squad.
Stare down
4 on svi?
@Crimsonorblue22 think they called it on Vick?
@Crimsonorblue22 Way???
Teams will expose Doke at the line. This will be their go to in close games.
Wish the announcers would tell us who the fouls are on
Doke is 4-8 from the line and tbh I can live with that. I say bank them all in. :joy:
Doesn't matter how they go in. But I mean, that shot might be what keeps him in Lawrence for another year.
Why does everyone call it phog AFH?
I would think Self, Roberts, or Townsend would work with his technique. Hell, put him on the FT line for 50 or 100 attempts to get his FTs into some kind of consistency.
Doke was fouled on that miss. :/

Apparently he does work on it alot.
You wouldn't believe it by watching him though.
Seems like they're missing a few fouls

yes
Anyone in foul trouble for Baylor?
Damn
Lightfoot off tonight
Need josh

I hyped him up too much. :(
That play fighting for the rebound is why Garrett plays.
@Crimsonorblue22 If he develops a jumper he will be one of our best players as a JR/SR.
Doke at the line for one and one means no fun.
Vick to slow sliding over
We are in deep doo doo now
Nice play Graham.
KU hasn't made a basket in over 5 minutes.
Svi! So dumb
Welp, Baylor has this game now. Can't make shots, can't stop Baylor from getting easy looks.
No boards
18 points in 16 minutes of this half. That won't get it done against anyone.
Malik Newman/Svi Mykhailiuk/Lagerald Vick in the 2nd half: 3 points on 1-7 shooting.
I could be watching Ms. Maisel. I hear it is very entertaining. Please win JHawks.
29% shooting from the floor in the 2nd half as a team. Yeesh.
Unbelieveable...I was afraid of this. They let BU stay in this game and they have taken a late lead.
2 pointers in the 2nd half
KU 5/14 BU 12/15
9 straight trips with pts for Baylor.
MALIK NEWMAN SHOW
Fight and defend
MALIK NEWMAN I AM SORRY I DOUBTED YOU SIR
Defense to offense...keep rebounding
Newman taking this game over
Doke at the line. Pray.
Great BU game plan, foul Doke.
HEART POUNDING
New-man! But hack a Dok in full swing... please
This is Newman's best game as a Jayhawk not close.
Acuil fouling out is big if this goes to OT.
It was kind of unfortunate the ball went right to Doke so they could foul him lol.
Damn he is a bad FT shooter! But yay for Graham!!
@truehawk93 I hope not too....
Off bears
@Crimsonorblue22 Refs suck tho
LOL THANKS SCOT DREW
Nice call
GAME
Damn...had to get my BP pills.
Malik! DG!
Squeaking by another one!!!
WOW - -Williamson TO DUKE
Not dokes best game
@truehawk93 missed throws and giving up second shots.
@Jayballer54 Wow, so many thought SCarolina or Clemson. Ol' Rat Face worked his nasty magic. The analyst even thought KU and UK were the blue bloods in the running. Look at Ol' Rat Face up to his usual tricks.
BU played WVU similarly in Motown too. BU seems to be fairly good on the road, without wins. I don't want to under estimate their play.
They didn't have all their players till recently either
@Crimsonorblue22 Didn't Beard play a kid that was injured against us? Smith? I think he's out now? Not sure about that, but seems an injured player played that should not have played.
@truehawk93 hellyea!
Failor is so predictable, love it!
@truehawk93 I don't know if he was hurt during our game but he's out now

To help explain to the noobs what βBeware of the Phogβ means?
I liked when the beware of the phog banner was a ratty old sheet stapled to the wall.
Gunman said:
@mayjay First they have no idea how it is spelled unless they have closed captioning turned on. What does closed captioning show for Phog anyway?
Lot's of fans probably don't know about the electronic sign Beware of the Phog. I remember when it was taped to the glass.
When did the Pay Heed banner become electronic? It was still that vinyl banner that replaced the original banner when I was there last summer.

That banner is still hanging in the Booth Hall of Athletics.
