Like I said, Braun, McBride and Enaruna are all future pros.

Jun 12, 2019 02:58 AM #13

It's a camp scrimmage. Let's see how Braun and McBride look against Duke if they get in the game.

If I were a betting man , which I'm not lol - - but IF I were the Duke game you speak of - - I would for sure be betting McBride would be making an appearance before Braun. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Flare’s analysis is encouraging to say the least https://t.co/0uhepjnmnp ↗

Jun 13, 2019 05:52 PM #23

How many all Americans do you guys think will we have next year? I think we will actually have 4. DD Ochia, SDS, and Doke while Moss will get big 12 honors. Holy cow I’m excited.

I might be overly hyped I know but come now

Whew. You are talking conference right? I think the only guys in play for national honors are Dot and Doke.

Jun 13, 2019 06:08 PM #25

@FarmerJayhawk If Doke can stay healthy, and if Agbaji can take the next step, and if Moss can be consistent, and if De Sousa can do... things, then that starting 5 can be the best in the country. Elite on both sides of the ball. A lot of ifs though, without even going to the bench.

Jun 13, 2019 06:11 PM #26

@BShark This is probably right but I think the other 3 starters have the potential to be All Big 12, especially Agbaji.

All 5 won't, but I can see scenarios for everyone. Dot is a :lock: and so is Doke if he stays healthy.

Jun 13, 2019 06:25 PM #28

@BShark That's what I meant. I should have clarified. I think one of them will be, but all 3 have the potential. If I were betting I would say Agbaji, though.

Four is a big number. Even if we have four players who are deserving we won't get that many. I say two, and one honorable mention.

Jun 14, 2019 01:30 PM #31

@Marco Yes absolutely. That’s more realistic. Haha

Jun 18, 2019 09:10 PM #32

Heard Dave balled tf out at the scrimmage today

Jun 18, 2019 09:24 PM #33

@FarmerJayhawk he did indeed, best big today but I know scrimmage

Jun 18, 2019 10:54 PM #34

@BShark They sent a Youtube video of the scrimmage, but it isn't working. Have you located it yet?

Jun 19, 2019 12:37 AM #35

@KUSTEVE I will look in a bit.

But for now...

Great

Dave

Enaruna

Ochai

Good

McBride

@KUSTEVE Wilson was awful, so he goes in the yikes category.

Jun 19, 2019 01:16 AM #39

@BShark Self has to point Wilson towards the locker after practice. Lost lol. He’s green, hopefully he gets better once acclimated.

Jun 19, 2019 01:24 AM #40

@BShark The clip shows Braun looking really good as well. Tyshawn dribbled between JW's legs...lol...

Jun 19, 2019 02:00 AM #41

Damn! Does Tyshawn have any eligibility left? He looked GOOD @ point...

Jun 19, 2019 03:44 AM #42

@Gorilla72 had to be demoralizing to jalen to have tyshawn dribble between his legs. 😥

Might help him realize he is a 4 here lol

Ty is a whole different breed, though! Who did that to the KSU player? (Will Spaulding- my nickname)

Jun 19, 2019 03:58 AM #45

@Crimsonorblue22 EJ I think

Jun 19, 2019 10:29 AM #46

@BShark Enaruna great? No way! Just joking. I'm telling you, he'll be hard to keep off the court. How did Braun do?

Jun 19, 2019 12:23 PM #47

@Marco Looked like he is 14 years old.

Jun 19, 2019 08:00 PM #48

@BShark damn, that bad?

@BShark WHAT IS THIS?

Jul 25, 2019 07:24 PM #52

Was thinking McBride pretty good shooting, then I saw his to's😳misprint?

Jul 25, 2019 08:10 PM #53

Looks like Agbaji hasn't made much progress on his outside shooting this offseason.

Jul 25, 2019 08:13 PM #54

Interesting, but not a lot we can learn since the samples are tiny and guys are adjusting to the new line.

Jul 25, 2019 08:22 PM #55

McBride with strong numbers.

Jul 25, 2019 09:19 PM #56

@FarmerJayhawk They're are definitive in anyway, but those numbers are useful for gauging progress. Agbaji at 27% is concerning because he was only at 30% last year. That's an indicator that his 3 point shooting may still be in Marcus Garrett territory.

Dotson being at 45%, but with low attempt numbers, is a sign that he needs to create more opportunities for himself from 3 because he has the abilities to be a dead eye shooter from deep.

Silvio and McCormack having 4 attempts between them is a sign the neither has the range to take that shot yet. That is a sign that KU is going to have to get much better at ball movement than they were last season to create good shots for players.

With Wilson and McBride, Wilson looks like he won't be a great shooter right away, could be the one big capable of spacing the floor and opening driving lanes for the guards. McBride looks like he won't have much issue adjusting to the deeper line and could potentially be the most consistent shooter on the team.

While I agree nothing is definitive with these numbers, there is definitely some usefulness to them to give some insight into where the players are at.
