Keeping the titles simple here.

Nov 13, 2018 01:55 AM #2

Bring it on.

Nov 13, 2018 01:56 AM #3

Cool the army rappelling in!

Nov 13, 2018 01:56 AM #4

I will not complain about things today.

Let's go Jayhawks

Nov 13, 2018 01:57 AM #5

Fran🤮

Nov 13, 2018 01:57 AM #6

And thanks to Stanford and UNC for not dragging it out. Hate it when the early game runs long.

Where’s our game?

Nov 13, 2018 01:59 AM #9

And, of course, thanks to all who served...

Nov 13, 2018 02:00 AM #10

Jeez, please cut away from these two boring snoozers

Nov 13, 2018 02:02 AM #11

Oh jeez

Nov 13, 2018 02:03 AM #12

Geaux Jayhawks.

Nov 13, 2018 02:04 AM #13

Vick's shot looks to be back in alignment

Nov 13, 2018 02:04 AM #14

Encouraging start for LGV

Nov 13, 2018 02:04 AM #15

Good thing Vick made that lol

Nov 13, 2018 02:05 AM #16

Like I said, encouraging start for LGV

Nov 13, 2018 02:05 AM #17

At this point, Vick is the best guy to feed the post too

Nov 13, 2018 02:05 AM #18

Why did Vick change his number? He was 2 last year if I aint mistaken

Nov 13, 2018 02:05 AM #19

It was a Bible thing I think?

Nov 13, 2018 02:05 AM #20

@wissox he quit and charlie took it

Nov 13, 2018 02:06 AM #21

When Vick declared, Charlie took his number.

Nov 13, 2018 02:06 AM #22

@DanR ah yeah that too

Nov 13, 2018 02:07 AM #23

Too bad on that walk. I like the thought.

Nov 13, 2018 02:07 AM #24

Not a travel.

Nov 13, 2018 02:07 AM #25

No walk

Nov 13, 2018 02:07 AM #26

vick in 24 is kind of like watching Michael Jordan wearing 45

Nov 13, 2018 02:07 AM #27

Weak call

Nov 13, 2018 02:07 AM #28

Refs take a walk

Nov 13, 2018 02:08 AM #29

Didn't think this team would catamount to much

Nov 13, 2018 02:08 AM #30

Yikes!

Nov 13, 2018 02:08 AM #31

It's not a 14-0 run. Doke scored.

Nov 13, 2018 02:08 AM #32

3-4 from 3 lmao

Nov 13, 2018 02:08 AM #33

perimeter D is poor

Nov 13, 2018 02:08 AM #34

4-5 rofl

Nov 13, 2018 02:08 AM #35

@KirkIsMyHinrich It just feels like it.

Nov 13, 2018 02:08 AM #36

Redic

Nov 13, 2018 02:09 AM #37

When we take this game serious we will win

Nov 13, 2018 02:09 AM #38

Respect ernie

Nov 13, 2018 02:09 AM #39

I'm not sold on that 12 foot shot from Grimes yet.

Nov 13, 2018 02:09 AM #40

I don't want Kansas to lose, but this is good for them.

Nov 13, 2018 02:09 AM #41

Villanova will ddumpster this KU team by 50

Nov 13, 2018 02:09 AM #42

ESPN2 appears to be several minutes behind CBSSports.com

Nov 13, 2018 02:10 AM #43

@BShark no, I’m going

Nov 13, 2018 02:10 AM #44

Probably should be prepared for a first round loss this year.

JK

Do they win when you're in attendance?

Nov 13, 2018 02:10 AM #46

@KirkIsMyHinrich yep

Nov 13, 2018 02:11 AM #47

@Gorilla72 let us know who wins!

Nov 13, 2018 02:11 AM #48

Figured the first 4 would be a nice bill self time out get his red face on

Nov 13, 2018 02:11 AM #49

Hmm, I could see it actually. This team does not guard the 3 pt line.

Nov 13, 2018 02:11 AM #50

@BShark stop

Nov 13, 2018 02:11 AM #51

Good to get punched in the mouth

Nov 13, 2018 02:12 AM #52

Did Dotson hit the ground before throwing it there? Didnt look like it

Nov 13, 2018 02:12 AM #53

Crimsonorblue22 said:

@KirkIsMyHinrich yep

Maybe we should start a fundraiser to send you to all of the tournament games.

Nov 13, 2018 02:12 AM #54

@BShark Oh, come on. If we're a 8 or 9 seed maybe

Nov 13, 2018 02:12 AM #55

@BShark Seems a simple concept. Vermont not going to beat us or come close with 2s....

Nov 13, 2018 02:12 AM #56

DCHawker said:

Yep. No excuse to not guard the 3 pt line here.

This team is lazy and bad.

Nov 13, 2018 02:13 AM #58

Dole should not be option 1
Old self is back

Nov 13, 2018 02:13 AM #59

Nice pass, Q

Nov 13, 2018 02:13 AM #60

Why would you watch a game if the team is lazy and bad?

Nov 13, 2018 02:13 AM #61

uncovered air ball, whew

Nov 13, 2018 02:13 AM #62

Self is to blame here too. POOR coaching.

lol chill

Nov 13, 2018 02:14 AM #64

Yeah seems spacing on perimeter not good. We should be working for open 3s

lol chill

Coaching is bad tonight. Too much forcing the ball inside.

Nov 13, 2018 02:15 AM #66

I knew he’d say something about isu

Nov 13, 2018 02:15 AM #67

That first screen on each possession is a useless waste of 3 seconds.

Nov 13, 2018 02:15 AM #68

18-4 since Vick's start.

Nov 13, 2018 02:15 AM #69

Fouled twice but called for traveling okay.

Nov 13, 2018 02:15 AM #70

Self needs to relax with forcing it too much to Doke. There is no rythym on offense.

Nov 13, 2018 02:15 AM #71

Nice take, Garrett.

Nov 13, 2018 02:16 AM #72

this game won't be in the 60s

Nov 13, 2018 02:16 AM #73

@KirkIsMyHinrich true. He made that screen not useless. Nobody else even pretended to use the screen.

Nov 13, 2018 02:16 AM #74

Good defense, Vick.

Nov 13, 2018 02:17 AM #75

DanR said:

Vermont will have 60 at the half.

True. We could use that Frank Mason guy tonight.

Nov 13, 2018 02:17 AM #78

This might be one of those games Vick wins for us!

Nov 13, 2018 02:17 AM #79

I could get used to this Vick though.

Nov 13, 2018 02:17 AM #80

I wonder if Self had some motivational words for Vick after the Michigan St. game.

Nov 13, 2018 02:18 AM #81

Glad Vick came back.

Nov 13, 2018 02:19 AM #82

I'm trying not to complain, but Doke is getting fouled.

Nov 13, 2018 02:19 AM #83

Doke got fouled and it's not even the last 5 minutes of the game, but they didn't call it.

Nov 13, 2018 02:20 AM #84

KirkIsMyHinrich said:

He is getting HAMMERED and just zero calls. Bullshit.

Nov 13, 2018 02:20 AM #85

Mo announcer is getting on my nerves

Nov 13, 2018 02:20 AM #86

Complete junk

wissox said:

Only reason we are in the game

Nov 13, 2018 02:21 AM #88

At least we know what we'll get from Q from game to game.

If we play Duke he'll probably go for 50.

Nov 13, 2018 02:22 AM #89

Man, forcing the post in 2018 is awful.

Nov 13, 2018 02:22 AM #90

Good thing Vick is on tonight or it would be ugly. Dedric has to start dunking bunnies, Doke needs to settle in along with the freshmen guards.

Nov 13, 2018 02:22 AM #91

@BShark Very one dimensional offense right now...

Nov 13, 2018 02:22 AM #92

If we make layups, dont travel and just stay in front I'm betting we'd be up. But since we can't do any of that we trail. Good learning curve for this bunch

Nov 13, 2018 02:23 AM #93

Honestly I think the offense is getting good looks right now, just not making them. And on the other end Vermont is making 3's.

Nov 13, 2018 02:23 AM #94

It could be worst, to be honest. they missed at least 5 wide open shots

Nov 13, 2018 02:23 AM #95

Yeah, Vermont is cold right now. Starting 4-5 from three now 5-10.

Nov 13, 2018 02:24 AM #98

And they are open

Nov 13, 2018 02:24 AM #99

Mitch make one jeez

Nov 13, 2018 02:24 AM #100

Meetch!

Nov 13, 2018 02:25 AM #101

Nice move by Lamb.

Nov 13, 2018 02:25 AM #102

Stop talking about Niang, Franny

Nov 13, 2018 02:25 AM #103

Feeding the post to Mitch then a mitch 3 miss lmao

Nov 13, 2018 02:25 AM #107

Holy shit!

Oh Vick!

That needs to be points.

Announcer dude, we will score more than 60.

Exactly

Nov 13, 2018 02:27 AM #119

Dedric needs to assert himself

Nov 13, 2018 02:28 AM #120

Not worried about us scoring 60 or even 70. We are heating up.

Nov 13, 2018 02:28 AM #121

Refs don't like the old man game

Nov 13, 2018 02:28 AM #122

What was that call on Dedric? yikes

Nov 13, 2018 02:28 AM #123

Refs suck

Nov 13, 2018 02:28 AM #124

This team is playing like mule muffins.

Nov 13, 2018 02:29 AM #125

@wissox ?

Nov 13, 2018 02:29 AM #126

Thank you for not dribbling, Doke.

Nov 13, 2018 02:29 AM #127

And one! Another uncalled foul against Doke

Nov 13, 2018 02:30 AM #128

@Crimsonorblue22 Quoting Colonel Potter! His term to get past the censors!

Nov 13, 2018 02:30 AM #129

Unconscious!

Nov 13, 2018 02:30 AM #130

These refs are foul blind on one end

Nov 13, 2018 02:31 AM #131

We've sped them up on the last 6 or 7 possessions.

Nov 13, 2018 02:31 AM #132

Glad Vick is there

Nov 13, 2018 02:31 AM #133

Thank the Lord for Vick tonight.

Nov 13, 2018 02:31 AM #134

Sooo the offense is more interesting when it is drive oriented instead of ramming it into the post. :thinking:

Nov 13, 2018 02:31 AM #135

Well no one can say we get all the calls my god this has to stop

Nov 13, 2018 02:32 AM #136

Is Vermont so good inside that we have to double down there?

Nov 13, 2018 02:32 AM #137

Loving vicks on game. He had a lot of those early last yr

Nov 13, 2018 02:32 AM #138

Glad Vick came back, everyone got him after MSU but he didn't need to take shots. Grimes and Dotson were hot. Gonna be lumps guys, these guys have to learn to play together.

Nov 13, 2018 02:32 AM #139

Only 3 Catamounts are scoring, E Duncan, Smith and Lamb. Seems like we could at least try to defend those three

Nov 13, 2018 02:32 AM #140

Should probably guard those guys tbh

Nov 13, 2018 02:33 AM #143

@Bwag Yeah, but 16 of our 25 - we're supposed to be deep and balanced. Need someone else to show up at some point - no one else has in the first half.

Nov 13, 2018 02:34 AM #144

Only players with KU experience prior to this season have scored tonight. Coaching strategy or just a bad half for the newbies?

Nov 13, 2018 02:34 AM #145

Fran AGAIN with the iowa state stuff. WTF?

Nov 13, 2018 02:34 AM #146

@BShark agreed. Slashing Garrett, Vick and Grimes are all capable of getting their shot, or throwing the lob and getting their own rebound on a slash.

Nov 13, 2018 02:34 AM #147

travel, not a foul

Nov 13, 2018 02:35 AM #148

I'm thinking Fran has a Niang poster in his bedroom.

Nov 13, 2018 02:35 AM #149

Dotson just ruined my theory

Nov 13, 2018 02:35 AM #150

Uh-oh, Vick with 2 fouls.

Nov 13, 2018 02:35 AM #151

@KirkIsMyHinrich farrah faucet pose

Free throw defense!

To bad Fran

Nov 13, 2018 02:39 AM #165

@DanR Fran is 4'3 but lifesized 3'9 when he isn't standing on a pot of gold.

KJ gonna be the new moving screen champ.

@Bwag Some ref will make it his mission. And honestly, it is a foul.

Nov 13, 2018 02:42 AM #180

@kjayhawks me too. Most athletic, and most capable perimeter defender of our bigs.

Self prolly thinks he will not defend their smalls well

Not a fan of Self gluing Vick and Dedric to the bench because they have 2 fouls.

This is our protest against dropping to #2 in the rankings.

Nov 13, 2018 02:49 AM #204

Lack of execution in that half. At least they have seen what bad looks like

Nov 13, 2018 02:50 AM #205

I think we come out 2nd half about 10 minutes in will start pushing to that spread

Nov 13, 2018 02:50 AM #206

By the way Joel has 32 and 16 through 3 quarters.

Nov 13, 2018 02:50 AM #207

On a positive note, we have some scoring options

Hopefully Dedric can stay on the floor in the 2nd half.

Not if the old man has his way. Dedric stole his bubble gum

Nov 13, 2018 02:53 AM #212

Doke was 6-10 in the first half. 2 turnovers. Entirely too many possessions where he was force fed the ball. Seemed like Self got away from it late, but man, old habits die hard.

Nov 13, 2018 02:55 AM #213

Amazing how the dean dome looks half empty on opening night against a power 5 team. No wonder Roy talks about how better AFH is.

Nov 13, 2018 02:56 AM #214

Vermont actually calmed down from three. 6-15 at the half. Actually 7-11 from 2...

Only 5 fouls on Vermont. 3 fta for KU. Seems low with what I saw out there. Refs swallowing the whistle.

Nov 13, 2018 02:57 AM #215

Halftime: K-State 31, Denver 28.

Nov 13, 2018 02:57 AM #216

@BShark Ya I thought that bogus offensive foul on them was a make up for all the contact Doke is getting. I feel like he gets the shaft because hes so big.

Nov 13, 2018 02:59 AM #217

Just so we all can laugh, k st only up 3 at half on denver

ISU beat an awful team by 12. Texas beat a mid major by 10. This league ain't it. ISU has the excuse of being w/o two of their better players.

Nov 13, 2018 03:01 AM #219

What conference are the refs from? They are missing a lot of calls both ways.

Nov 13, 2018 03:03 AM #220

@kjayhawks saw that

Nov 13, 2018 03:05 AM #221

Jeez, I think I was at that season-opening loss to Vandy in '73. Didn't think much about it at the time.
We ended up making the Final Four anyway.

Nov 13, 2018 03:06 AM #222

Doke is a quitter

Nov 13, 2018 03:08 AM #223

Lane violation when Doke finally makes one? This is like a sitcom

Nov 13, 2018 03:09 AM #224

Sloppy start here to the second half

Nov 13, 2018 03:09 AM #225

Yep, it's Hack-a-Doke time.

Nov 13, 2018 03:10 AM #226

Dedric looks bad tonight

Nov 13, 2018 03:10 AM #227

Fran go away

Nov 13, 2018 03:10 AM #228

Fran, suck it

Nov 13, 2018 03:11 AM #229

Sorry

Nov 13, 2018 03:11 AM #230

Dotson, stud

Nov 13, 2018 03:11 AM #231

My son just sent me a text about my boy Fran

Nov 13, 2018 03:12 AM #232

Frans already in good form. Bad for our health

Nov 13, 2018 03:12 AM #233

I may actually be more athletic than dedric.

Nov 13, 2018 03:12 AM #234

I'm just constantly shocked at how bad a rebounder Doke is. That's the last negative thing I'll say about him tonight, since he's about to bust loose.

Nov 13, 2018 03:12 AM #235

He has a thing about our pt guards!

I think crimsonorblue has a crush on Fran :)

Nov 13, 2018 03:13 AM #240

anybody have a Ice pick I can borrow? I need to stab my ear drums out. Is this Espn or some sports station in Vermont?

Nov 13, 2018 03:14 AM #241

@BShark well when in my playing days I had the highest vertical on the team at 31 inches. I'm a 6'1 white guy that could dunk so there's fair chance.

Nov 13, 2018 03:14 AM #242

Silvio, we hardly knew ye...

Nov 13, 2018 03:14 AM #243

We need him fran

Nov 13, 2018 03:14 AM #244

Crimsonorblue has a crush on Fran. Fran has a crush on Niang. And Niang has a crush on Crimsonorblue.

Nov 13, 2018 03:14 AM #246

There's the annual KU player being held out shot. We'll hear it about 20 more games this year i'm afraid.

Nov 13, 2018 03:15 AM #247

Fran, you dont know crap. Silvio is one of the 5 most talented bigs in the league. Definite need for a talent like that

Nov 13, 2018 03:16 AM #248

They are calling the hacks on Doke now. Same shit was going on first half.

Nov 13, 2018 03:16 AM #249

Maybe coach had a talk with the zebras. We're getting some whistles.

Nov 13, 2018 03:16 AM #250

Good pass Q

Nov 13, 2018 03:16 AM #251

Grimes with the good feed. Liking that!

Nov 13, 2018 03:16 AM #252

Dedric's finishing is crap again.

Nov 13, 2018 03:17 AM #253

I know the nba draft is all about potential now but man I wouldn’t draft anyone on our squad

Nov 13, 2018 03:17 AM #254

And on his arm

Nov 13, 2018 03:17 AM #255

Vick why.

I mean... good shot

Nov 13, 2018 03:18 AM #256

I figured if I shamed Doke enough he'd come around

Nov 13, 2018 03:18 AM #257

Vick has the fire tonight.

Nov 13, 2018 03:18 AM #258

Imagine if Doke and Vick made it to the NBA....

Grimes will be drafted. After that...honestly...I don't see it either. Maybe Silvio on potential. No way Doke or Dedric are draftable.

Nov 13, 2018 03:19 AM #261

Q has to learn there. Killed that quick run

Nov 13, 2018 03:19 AM #262

@DanR I'm sure that was the catalyst. What's your strategy for his FT shooting?

Nov 13, 2018 03:20 AM #263

@Bwag make him practice with a volleyball

Nov 13, 2018 03:20 AM #264

I love watching this version of Vick. Making shots, free flowing, and all with that big smile on his face.

Nov 13, 2018 03:21 AM #265

Just looking at the box. We are so pumped about a deep KU squad for a change, and I don't see any bench players that have proven anything so far. They've contributed 5 points collectively tonight. That's not what we wanted from them. So yes Fran, Silvio would help a lot as others have pointed out. I trust in Garrett and Lightfoot somewhat, but more as minor role players. These boys have got to step up!

Nov 13, 2018 03:21 AM #266

We've got these pesky little cats where we want them... now finish them off!

Nov 13, 2018 03:21 AM #267

Dotson is going to be a great one by the time it's all said and done. He just has "looks like a FR" spurts atm.

Nov 13, 2018 03:21 AM #268

SDS is better than any big not named Doke from what I've seen so far this season.

Nov 13, 2018 03:22 AM #269

Vick looks like he's played in a home game before!

Nov 13, 2018 03:22 AM #270

No, Fran is right about this. Trust me.

Nov 13, 2018 03:23 AM #275

We 'd be losing by 30 tonight if Vick had gone on to play in Zanzibar or whereever.

Nov 13, 2018 03:23 AM #276

@BShark there is more than he wants to come back

Nov 13, 2018 03:23 AM #277

Who called Vick for 21 and D.Lawson for 0 at about 13 min left?

Nov 13, 2018 03:23 AM #278

Beautiful passing.

Okay I need to know exactly what you are talking about here. Because Self was absolutely done with Vick. Fran is right about that.

Nov 13, 2018 03:25 AM #280

Vick came back because he wanted his degree right?

Nov 13, 2018 03:25 AM #281

EN FUEGO !!!!!!!!

Nov 13, 2018 03:25 AM #282

Not Garrets best drive

feed the beast. Lordy, the basket is an ocean for Vick.

Nov 13, 2018 03:25 AM #284

I mean this is nuts

Nov 13, 2018 03:26 AM #285

Love seeing Vick make those. Big for confidence

Nov 13, 2018 03:26 AM #286

Was that a "surely there was a foul there" foul?

Nov 13, 2018 03:26 AM #287

wissox starts googling record for most 3's in a game without a miss.

Nov 13, 2018 03:27 AM #288

If anyone has got the short end of the stick with the whistle tonight it's Doke. Gets pushed almost every possession.

Nov 13, 2018 03:28 AM #291

@KirkIsMyHinrich

Doke is tough to officiate at the college level. Referees aren't sure what's contact and what's a push.

Nov 13, 2018 03:28 AM #292

@KirkIsMyHinrich Coaches have figured out refs won't call it, so that's the plan from the start. Foul and hack him until he gets frustrated

Nov 13, 2018 03:28 AM #293

7 for 7 wow not sure I've seen that before. Remember JR going 6 for 6 in a half then 0 for 7 in the 2nd. Closet maybe DG hitting 5 in row vs WV but was 0-4 before hand.

Nov 13, 2018 03:29 AM #294

Vick had a couple twos that were barely inside the line too.

Nov 13, 2018 03:29 AM #295

So Dedric needs to let things come naturally. He is forcing things and it isn't paying off. Lamb is killing him on both ends.

Nov 13, 2018 03:29 AM #296

@BeddieKU23 Can't find it yet. Keeping on looking.

Sooo just gonna let Vermont take open looks okay

Nov 13, 2018 03:31 AM #304

Anthony Lamb will take you to the torture chamber w/o remorse.

Nov 13, 2018 03:31 AM #305

No more Garrett threes please.

Nov 13, 2018 03:32 AM #306

Looked like a pass from Garrett, that three

Nov 13, 2018 03:32 AM #307

If that sequence happened in the Michigan St. game there would have been about 5 fouls.

Nov 13, 2018 03:32 AM #308

Moore missed the feed to Doke there

Nov 13, 2018 03:32 AM #309

@Bwag twice

Maybe don't leave their best player wide open.

Nov 13, 2018 03:39 AM #323

Oh crap fran!

Nov 13, 2018 03:39 AM #324

Also, Dedric made a play within the offense. More of that please!

Nov 13, 2018 03:39 AM #325

Wow, I guess I don't pay attention to hockey much. Never heard of that Hall of Famer.

Nov 13, 2018 03:39 AM #326

That Vermont team looks like an NCAA, obviously they blew it last season but that's a tough out for anyone in March.

Katie Lou Samuelson, Connecticut women's basketball team, shot 10-of-10 from three-point range against South Florida in 2017. Supposedly the most makes without a miss in the history of the sport. A couple of NBA players have gone 9-9. I can’t find any NCAA men’s players who have more than Vick.

Only took 19 threes tonight.

Doke 10-17

Dedric 0-6

Garrett 1-6 0-1

2pt% only 47

@tundrahok Didn't the announcer say BMac made 8 of 8 once?

BMac had a 6-6 game against ISU. That was his best w/o a miss.

@wissox I didn't hear. Was that at KU or in the NBA? I thought they said at the end of the game Vick had the KU record.

Interesting that David didn't get in with how ineffective everyone but doke was. We may see more of a four guard line up than expected. The ball just moves so much better with 4 guards and if Vick, Grimes and Dotson came keep the defense honest by hitting 3s, we may need it to win games.

8-8 is a KU record for sure it may well be a ncaa record as well can’t find anything better so far

KSU 10-23 from the line a big reason why it isn't a double digit win.

Nov 13, 2018 04:05 AM #397

KSU wins 64-56, finishes 12-27 from the stripe. I think this KSU team will struggle to adjust to being the hunted rather than the hunter.

I made a thread for this.

10 for 10 is the NCAA record for both men and women, unless someone broke it since this article.

@tundrahok Just saw your post. The article I posted a couple mins ago says a G Mason player went 10 for 10 in 2008.

Nov 13, 2018 04:17 AM #402

Somebody said dg had 7-7 last year?

Not true. I checked for you. Had a 7 make game on 13 attempts.

@mayjay Thanks, I hadn't noticed the tweet in that article.

What a great edit from Bryce Wood. Helps when the artist for SI is a KU grad.

@tundrahok It was actually surprising how hard it is to find this record. Prob in NCAA record book but I deleted that pdf file when I ran too low on memory and needed to load something in a hurry.

Thought Garrett and Moore were good off the bench.

That's uh, interesting Bill.

As I rewatch the game, Fran made so many dumb comments. For instance, after a Doke dunk, it was ā€œThat’s what happens when you don’t double him!ā€. Doke had 2 men hanging on him and a third running right at him.

ā€œUse every TV timeout to stay close.ā€

Just awful.... 🤯
