No injuries plz

@BShark

Agree , none wanted period. - - Really hope they keep that watchful eye over Moss, an injury in a Non-con game such as this- could really hurt down the line. - Would be nice if he cold rest a little more - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Get up 30, sit devon, doke and moss

Silvio starting.

Heeeere weeee gooooooooo.

picture quality is crap. Thanks, AD Jeff.

Monmouth is not good.

Gonna have to be a little faster to keep up with Dotson.

Dotson could win this one on five

Nice to see Dotson seems 100% healthy.

I was just thinking Ochai needs to be more aggressive, but not like that

Yeah, ankle seems good now.

I feel bad for monmouth

Electric in the fast break which is about the opposite of ochai

Otoh they were paid for this.

Our next opponent is also a mid major but MUCH better.

@BShark

Always need these games. Texas Tech plays about a dozen of them every year

My wife just asked why we were even playing a team like this. I told her Kentucky plays teams like Evansville.

Mine is full HD and I can watch the game 1000 miles away. Thx Jeff!

D is stupid elite good.

Dotson’s shot is not any better unfortunately

@FarmerJayhawk Good point. I would have loved ESPN+ when I lived in Tennessee or Ohio

My pic quality has improved here in Lawrence. I'm probably lagging a few minutes by now though!

KU is cooking. The misses from three have been solid looks.

Has Doke ever made two FT on the same trip to the line?

Oh no Tristan.

I feel bad for that monmouth dude missing the layup.

Let's wait to feel bad for them after we cream them.

Isaiah Moss

Doke's got the little jump hook going

If Enaruna ends up being special I'd imagine his name will end up in some rap songs. It's fun to say.

Monmouth may not reach 20

@approxinfinity bitch I'm tristan?

And our defense is worlds better this year

I'll take the under on 20.

DanR said:

That was a lefty hook I believe. Not sure I’ve seen that from him.

Reminder that this Monmouth team was up NINE on KSU at half in Mancrappin...

Our defense is going to be elite.

It's going to be interesting if we get back to playing elite d. We seemed to consciously go more and more toward high possession / high scoring games since 2012. I wonder if this is a sea change or just best available personnel.

OKAY TRISTAN

Guys, you might wanna get a guy on Braun.

What can Braun do for [K]U?

@approxinfinity need to TM that

Yikes.

Oh yeah. KU is huge.

Enjoying watching Garrett distribute.

Bill started line-up trolling early and Monmouth actually went on a run.

RockChalk

Hey all. Like our energy.
For those interested, Had another ct scan and Dr. requested a PET scan which I had yesterday. Got Good News from the doctor. No increased activity in the left lower lung and unlikely a tumor. Changes are related to the radiation. Dr. is very satisfied! Now I can go look for a new car. I want something reliable to go to the coast. We're watching #KU 🏀
Waiting on UPS to deliver a box of KU swag from the assistant to Coach that I've written for 12 years. Can't wait to see what she sent.

RockChalk

Just happy to share.
♥️

you know its a blowout when everyone else in my house is already reading a book and its 8 minutes to go in the first half.

Nice Moss! Let it fly!

Doke said NO there.

BShark said:

That was nice

Moss can shoot the rock as advertised

He will continue to get more important as the season goes on

There’s only 35-40 of these a year!

@Woodrow Amen brother.

I can't watch and type at the same time. I miss all the good plays🤔

BeddieKU23 said:

You can tell he is still a bit hampered. Hopefully it doesn't linger all year.

Isaiah Moss

Enaruna is going to be our best offensive player at some point. I don't think he'll last 4 years.

The offense is generating reaaaally good looks.

I wonder if Tristan will ever smile

Homer call, Papas. Good D.

Where's the Mamas, Papas?

Dotson has a good sweat going. Warm today in Lawrence for November.

Isaiah Moss

BShark said:

Isaiah Moss

I think you get to repeat that a few more times. A very good shooter

announcer just said theres no moss growing under Moss' knickers. think he meant kickers.

approxinfinity said:

Not much of a chance of that with his measurables and so far the jumper is better then most thought it would be. 3 yr player max if lucky

Nice hesitation by Braun on that pass.

If Moss can shoot FT like that he's gonna get opportunities from the line end game... Half the team is an adventure from the stripe!

Year three in a KU uniform would absolutely be a blessing.

D graham smooth

Dedrick is playing tonight for Austin Spurs.

Braun is deceptively deadly

Oh man. Braun has some swag.

Clinic

16-0 run

Foot to throat run.

What can you even say at this point.

Oh right. Monmouth 29 KSU 20 halftime score. WTF.

approxinfinity said:

Him and dot will be in end of game situations always

Braun has thick calves... freakishly long arms, like Grayson Allen without the tripping gene.

Sit marcus and devon after the 12 minute mark. Let braun and moss run the show

Initially, I thought this game was a waste of time. But, all the guys are getting to play and are playing well together.

DanR said:

I fixed it

@BeddieKU23 LOL

That Dunks Over Bedtime girl is adorable. :face_with_tears_of_joy:

We're not going to score 59 more are we?

approxinfinity said:

@DanR Haha, true. She's locked in.

Only have to outscore them by 22 this half for free wang burgers!

What are Wang Burgers?

approxinfinity said:

Given we are already in advanced garbage time it's hard to say. You want to keep guys sharp but this team has been Pitt State bad. How early does Bill go to the walk-ons here?

I like resting Dotson and Doke at a minimum.

approxinfinity said:

Signature dish at The Wheel! https://kuinfo.ku.edu/how-did-wang-burger-wheel-get-its-name ↗

I like Moss as a starter over Garrett once he’s 100%. Just flows a lot better with a deadeye shooter.

That sounds like a bigass burger to be giving away for free. I guess winning by 50 is pretty rare.

DanR said:

Lol best I’ve had so far. It’s perfect here.

Basically only possible in exhibitions and sub 300 Kenpom teams.

Silvio can't buy baskets

BUCKETS PURCHASED

Correction 3 ball purchased

@BeddieKU23 Too soon

@FarmerJayhawk Didn't expect to take a shot tonight in my take a drink every time a big makes a jumper drinking game but here we are.

Dont be a punk zero

DanR said:

@BeddieKU23 Too soon

Sorry. Hope his shots at the rim start falling

SALNAVE, thats basically an anagram for EVANSVILLE....

Seems no restriction on Silvio on the perimeter.. shooting.. putting the ball on the deck... Foreshadowing?

Silvio “Giannis” DeSousa

Pity foul from the refs

I have faith in Silvio becoming the full time starter

@BeddieKU23 At the 4 this year?

BeddieKU23 said:

Same. He’s more skilled than he’s shown.

When Doke goes down it'll be Silvio and Mccormack?

BITE (bitch I'm Tristan Enaruna) with an ugly minute

Dave just made Monmouth quit basketball

DMac with the follow was nice

Nice hard crossover by Marcus too. I never saw him as a real point guard until now. His handles seem tight.

That Dave jumper looked nice.

I know who should shoot any technical freebies. Moss. Dang pure.

Could have 8 KU guys with over 20 points in this game

Who the hell did Monmouth beat?

McCormack enjoys beating up on creampuffs. I dig it.

OH MY TRISTAN

Woo boy!

Tristan showed some emo !

So next season should be pretty fun.

Jesus Joseph and Mary

Man. Mccormack looks really flatfooted and stiffkneed guarding the perimeter. He's bending forward at the waist with straight legs. Comical looking. I can't see that defense hanging with anyone with a quick first step.

So kind of being lost in all of this is Ochai is really struggling

I'm so loving this game

@approxinfinity he's still quicker than Monmouth's point guard though

Woodrow said:

Fouls will do that

Bench is 17-19 from the field.....

@DCHawker

Ugh that's alll??

KirkIsMyHinrich said:

I'm going to enjoy this season but if only Dot and the SRs leave next year will be very saucy. Everyone else gets a year older and better and we add two real guys.

@BeddieKU23 Alas, missed two 3s

@approxinfinity

Just a big dude that shouldn't be forced to guard it if he doesnt have to

@DCHawker

They are running sprints

@Woodrow He's 0-6 - rest of the team is hitting about 70%

Ochai has been concerning but we can sustain him being average over the year I think. Huge thanks to Tristan for being better than expected.

Wait, was this the team that Kansas St was losing to by 9 at halftime???

KirkIsMyHinrich said:

This will never fail to be amazing.

Let's get Dot and Doke out of the game.

TRASH REF. GIVE THAT TO SILVIO DAMN IT.

Ochai wyd

put the walk-ons in

Yikes Ochai

Agbaji will be ok. Just a bad game. Expect him to kick someones ass in the next couple games.

Breathers needed. They are all sweating.

Braun should be out there

Agree, want more Braun. He's ready to be a big weapon this year.

approxinfinity said:

Swaggy B can shoot the rock

D'tae had 18 pts, 5 assists and 10 rebounds in the win.

I can't believe I didn't pick him up on the waiver wire when I could in my fantasy league @RockChalkinTexas . I'm a bad fan.

DOKE ON THE FAST BREAK LOOOOOL

Lmaoooo

@BShark Then another fast break to the bench.

Get doke out. I don't care about him leading the fast break, I just don't want him to get hurt.

Games like this are good for Doke to try to get over that FT mental block. No pressure, home crowd. Winning by 50.

Isaiah Moss

Isaiah Moss

Moss is the sauce.

Moss is what we thought Charlie would be, at least offensively.

like throwing a rock in the ocean for Moss

TEAHAN!!

TEA TIME

CT SCAN

coool haaaand teaaahan! (channeling my inner Max)

Team shooting better than 57% - and that's with Ochai 1-9 (and Garrett 1-4)...

Walk Chalk, y'all.

Is @Crimsonorblue22 at the game?

DCHawker said:

Moss, Braun, Doke and Dave have been pretty efficient. :D

Dave with the heat check. The heater is not plugged in.

Baylor tied with the Texas St Bobcats at halftime playing at home.

Do you think we'll see Devon off ball a lot with Marcus handling? Seems like a deliberate effort to go there tonight. Last year, Devon was always ball dominant.

KirkIsMyHinrich said:

HOLY SHIT TRISTAN

Enarunaaaa

@KirkIsMyHinrich Other interesting scores - UNC only up by 3 over Webber at half. Duke beat Ga St by just 11 at home. And Gonzaga up 40-19 over TX A&M.

approxinfinity said:

I like it, helps keep Devon fresh.

Other than Wiggins being a lot more athletic and probably a little bit better shooter, what's the difference between him and Enaruna?

Bobcats aren't an exhibition type team. Pretty good for their conference.

I'd love to see our practices this year.

JANK!!

Dick move

Yikes.

Greyson allen lives on in monmouth

Lol we got a badass over here

Jank and Teahan outscore Ochai and Garrett!

Brannen Greene out there for Monmouth?

You can't really look like a bad-ass when you're losing by 55.

My favorite part was him yelling “I don’t give a f*ck”

ha. he apologized to enaruna in the line. all good.

Nice scrimmage. D looks solid.

One more till Maui.

well I'm all ready to spew some hyperbole about Enaruna and Braun. I'm forcing myself not to, because its Monmouth.

Night all. Dunks Over Bedtime!!!!! See you next week. Stay safe.

@RockChalkinTexas :) Night!

@RockChalkinTexas You too!

approxinfinity said:

Tristan has been good all year. Not sure he gets to the point this year were he is giving you a ton of offense but he does a lot of good things that contribute to winning. He's much better than I expected.

RockChalkinTexas said:

I like these early games. Plenty of time to wind down. :D

Cheers. We're going to try to find an uncrowded restaurant In Larryville and get something to eat.

@BShark He's a modern 4. Finally. We haven't had a 4 that could shoot like this since Marcus Morris, and he's better than freshman Marcus, with more faceup game.

I'm glad KU held on tonight, that was a little too close to comfort for me, lol!

Well dang , I looked and looked and tried and tried - and really couldn't find anything to complain about. - -Mercy , really like the flow - -of course always helps when you shoot the ball well but Man - looked really good.

I'm liking myself Some Tristian - man that kid is going to be really good before he is done - -just Athletic - - -smooth - just looks sweet.

Thinking I'm liking me some Mr Moss - -another guy that is really smooth. - Course like Coach said he isn't going to be that open in a lot of games - - I think he is possibly more comfortable here with us - -maybe not as much pressure to score because of others ya think?

Pretty good stats - - - 56 % from the filed - -47 % from the 3 - - 22 assists - -7 turnovers - -22-29 from the line = =Nice game guys - -looked really good. - Ya realize the competition play part but still we shoot like that we can be really - - -really good. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL NIGHT LONG BABY

You know - - Tristian just looks really comfortable on the floor - - really smooth - -he is going to be really sweet to watch -- I'm liking me some Tristian .

Coach Self already put us on alert - -saying he hopes the fans are up for the game Tuesday - -saying probably going to be a really tough game against MTS - - saying could be tough as Duke

approxinfinity said:

Lil rockchalking Texas gal

I like this offense a lot when we are shooting well. I missed most the game, watched my Nephew get to the state Semis in football for the second straight year. Dipsh*t of the week award for George Papas for stealing it as dunking, what a tool bag!

KirkIsMyHinrich said:

I’d say Enaruna plays harder and shoots better, Wiggins maybe the best athlete I’ve ever seen play in person.

BShark said:

That move was much worse than Greene’s , we already had the ball and it was a soft dunk in a rivalry game. This was just plain stupidity. If I was on the court, I would’ve tapped on the shoulder and pointed at the scoreboard while laughing.

Just watched most of the game on replay, I’m fine with Garrett only shooting 4 times but Ochai didn’t look good on either side tonight. We could’ve beat this team 150 to 40 if we wanted. Keep shooting Ochai.

That is the perfect role for Marcus. Dominate on defense, drive the ball when available, and take a wide open 3 here or there.
