Thiam for UCF might be our MVP so far. Started hot but then kept shooting and started missing. Both goaltends are him as well.

I have noticed Shak Moore has been banished to the shadow realm. Must have pissed Bill off.

Starting 3 bigs after half lmao
He is cooked
Like seriously what the hell are we doing. WHY is he staying with it when it's obviously bad.
Going out his way…
Sad to see him go out like this.
I'm actually worried.

I'm over Bill Self
This game is definitely winnable at least. They need to clean up the turnovers and Hunter needs to start making shots.
Inject Juan's ankle with magic at half
@approxinfinity said in KU Mad, Central Florida next on schedule, part 2.:
Christ man. These are almost all turnovers on passes. Self inflicted.
Yeah, no PG out there for us
@approxinfinity He can, just not at the KU level
With no Juan or Shak we don't have an actual PG in the game. 4 straight turnovers was very nasty.
Juan haters wya
They look gassed lol
@wissox said in KU Mad, Central Florida next on schedule, part 2.:
@BShark I amend my score to 61-60
Yeah I just hope we win at all.
Juan OUT, uh oh. Big FAFO moment for ballin10
Sounds like KJ will try to play tonight.
@approxinfinity said in My crisis of faith in Bill:
@kuballin10 love it. AJ should continue to get opportunities. Heroes are made in March as you know ;)
Oh man, I completely disagree. I think AJ is largely why we lost to Houston. I'd love for him to just get DNPs when KJ returns...
Core 7 for me is Juan/Zeke/Shak/Rylan/KJ/Flory/Hunt
@approxinfinity said in Feeling the Fieldhouse magic?:
Only thing i would amend is zekes minutes. Shak should have taken some of his minutes.
Think he tweaked his foot on the missed dunk
@BeddieKU23 Changes with the weather, not worth following until after the season.
@BeddieKU23 I'd bet money on Storr and Zach being gone.

I really like Josh Allen. His only real flaw is being born at the wrong time. Mahomes is robbing his legacy. I’m ok with it, just sayin’
There are so many great QBs right now IMO. Mahomes, Allen, Burrow, Jackson, Goff and Daniels is looking pretty dang good.
GOFF?????? I think he's much more of a purgatory QB than a great.

4 of his last 5 playoff losses being to KC is insane. You can tell it's effected him too. Looked dejected on the sideline.

Tough loss. 0-1 what's next?
If you can see the future, please speak up sooner so I can secure my future with a few wagers :)
Making fun of Tang
Tough loss. 0-1 what's next?
Up 6 with 18 seconds left and at the line shooting free throws. Absolutely insane to lose that.
Moderately annoyed that we continued to have Zeke inbound the ball in crunch time when he was clearly struggling with it. I'd have considered Hunter there. Plus Zeke is a guy you want catching the ball if anything to shoot fts.
Threw the game away twice.
Man....
FUCK
@approxinfinity said in Feeling the Fieldhouse magic?:
For as much credit as everyone gives Hunter for being a good passer, Flory SEES
Flory has a better feel for the game than I would have expected.
I love Flory so much
@approxinfinity I'll just mention some stuff here. Torvik is decent and free (what I used here). Kenpom and Evan Miyakawa are good ones that you have to pay for. They all kind of have their own specific metric for overall player rating that generally tells the same story.
Even though I have a sub for Miyakawa I still don't see a way to do conference only so for the sake of comparsion I'll post how Torvik and Miyakawa rate our players for the entire season.
Torvik
Hunter, Zeke, KJ, Juan, Flory, Rylan, Storr, Shak, Diggy
Miyakawa
Hunt, Juan, KJ, Rylan, Flory, Shak, Zeke, Storr, Diggy
Miyakwa not liking Zeke is interesting because whatever else you look at says he is good.
One of my favorite things about Miyakwa is line-up comparisons...
Conference only, including last night. Notably Diggy's minutes are going way down lately in favor of Shak which is a good decision. Flory should also play as much as possible, and even though Self will not I would play him as much as possible even when KJ is back.
We will get worse at head coach when Bill retires. That's just a fact.
@TYOHawk said in Big Ern’s Frogs meet The Bidunga Bunch — Game Thread:
Dajuan has value cause he’s a better passer and catch and shoot guy than Shak. But I would like to see Shak as the primary backup when Juan is sitting instead of Diggy.
Shak still messes up the sets a bit is why I assume Bill had been going with Diggy but I think you just need to live with that because it's a night and day difference in terms of their overall play.

Like the havoc Shak and Flory were causing defensively man…
Shak is like a defensive back reading the passing lanes.
His POA defense as well…it had me speechless. Teaching tape at the next practice..my goodness
Yeah, our defense has been better when we have Shak there instead of Dajuan. TCU definitely has some shot makers. They hit some tough ones last night. Just have to tip your hat on the one where the guy hit a fadeaway on Shak. Thought over all after the ABYSMAL start that we defended solidly.

AJ Storr 6 rebounds 3 steals was lovely to see. Idk if I posted about that yet.

Perimeter defense and Flory changed this game in the 2nd half. This defense has great potential when they really put it together
We could be up by more. TCU guards have made some thought shots!
Allette is nasty man
Also an early transfer possibility last year but WHEW DRAMA
He'd have Bill back at KU med

I am wondering if something was up. Going to ask later.
We started slipping those blitz screens

AJ looking good… with Flory out there with him. Sorry, if my harping about how Flory makes everyone elses defensive shortcomings more palettable is tired.
I'm looking forward to him starting at the 5 next year brother

Went from +2 to -1. Not terrible, now get him out.
