UTEP is a very unserious team

The effort is there for Jalen. Hasn't forced anything. Most comfortable I've seen him.
Yep, playing well within the flow of the game.
That was in a group chat of course I don't tweet at players that's toxic.
@BeddieKU23 said in UTEP Game Thread:
Jalen passing so good tonight
My pre game call out on twitter worked.
The ball movement @Crimsonorblue22
CB is really adding to his dunk mixtape tonight
I'm ready for some Zach time
@BeddieKU23 said in UTEP Game Thread:
King McClure was at Baylor like 3-4 years ago?
He was very interested in being a Jayhawk, didn't work out obvs
Dave is the only one really playing bad lol
@BeddieKU23 said in UTEP Game Thread:
Beautiful start. Going for the shutout
Bad offensive team and Bill has been on their asses over the defense. Bad combo for UTEP.
The ball moves a lot better with Harris in. Hopefully as other guys get more comfortable in the system they move it better, then there would barely be a reason to play Harris. Bill loves him but he would be better off the bench situationally.
We good.
@justanotherfan JWill being our worst rotation player was not a plot twist I saw coming that's for sure.
This game is very upsetting, I hate it.

I am a Broncos fan and we suck. If you don't beat us, I would be concerned.
Very nervous for this game against the vaunted Broncos and elite QB Teddy Bridgewater tbh
Hurtful
You will get another good QB eventually. Are there fire Elway talks btw?
Sad drive for the defense woof

I'm guilty of criticizing Self too much, the numbers show that we do not post up too much. It was just a point of contention because of how the Dayton game ended.
Och and CB are getting 25 shots a game combined and are being super efficient. Both have insane PER for a wing.
I posted this in the other thread already but he was definitely behind some universally good things. Links are in the other thread.
Rumors that Larry Brown is actually coaching the team and Penny is just a face.
@wissox said in Non-KU Games:
@BShark Purdue will be the flavor du jour until someone knocks them off and people say 'see, we told you about them'.
Was really glad OSU knocked Duke down so we don't have to listen to it non-stop about that team and K's farewell tour.
Purdue looks very solid for sure. Not unbeatable but very good. Hard to hang with what they can throw at you down low and the Ivey kid is about as good a guard as they have had under Painter.
@drgnslayr said in Non-KU Games:
Proof the very nature of the game allows a hot team to beat a better team.
Self has the right term here... "margin for error." Also means "margin for opposition hotness." You just won't hear Self use that term because he wants his fellas taking total responsibility on the floor.
This KU team can get up by or down by double digits against just about anyone I think lol.
Not saying it will happen here, but really do not like to see people now taking their shots at him. He was a Republican, we know, doesn't mean he was evil.

Rest in peace.
The same Alabama team that lost to Iona. There might not be one team far and above the rest this year.
@Crimsonorblue22 They have a top 10 guy coming off the bench at guard, must be nice.
Every time I see Sunrise I am convinced KU is much better off with Gradey Dick than Mark Mitchell.
Ochai and CB move so well off the ball.
@AsadZ said in Turg out, Danny named interim at UMd:
Extremely odd to leave in the middle of the season.
You don't see it often but you also don't see situations like this where a guy is still a coach but with basically 0% fan approval. He tried to leave last offseason, I believe he was in the running for the Marquette job.
I said this before but I think Maryland fans overrate their programs. Turg won at a 66% rate. I will be surprised if the next coach does better and I'm not even that high on Turg.
@nwhawkfan Danny does not like recruiting, or at least didn't when he was an assistant at KU. Doubt much has changed there. I would imagine he would want to hire some strong recruiters as assistants and mostly leave that to them.
@KirkIsMyHinrich said in St Johns Game Thread:
Christian Braun: 31 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals, 1 block, 10-16 from the field
He was 71% from 2 coming in so that % actually went down. He has been so, so good.
@Oldmanhawk said in Non-KU Games:
@BShark wow!! I didn’t know that
Their reaction to the firing, XD

Fun game. Can we have Mike Anderson coach all our opponents?
@DanR said in St Johns Game Thread:
Surprised Anderson didn't flop when the ref ran into him, to be honest
HOWLING PHOFS
@KirkIsMyHinrich said in St Johns Game Thread:
LOL Anderson
Bruh you are getting 20 balled CALM DOWN.
Fantastic result considering KU only favored by 7 and JWill a non-factor.
@DCHawker said in St Johns Game Thread:
Why is Jalen only taking deep shots. He should be able to take his guy off the dribble to the rim...
He is a walking turnover if he goes left and opposing coaches know it.
New avatar just dropped
lol ref show

What in gods green earth is this lineup?
Pain and suffering but we gotta get guys rested for the stretch run.
Literally have Yesufu, Bobby and JCL but this is what is on the floor lmao
JCL has been cheeks tonight. Bobby not amazing either wouldn't mind Yesefu. But anyway that line-up quickly went away lol.
OKAY CB

Airball
Literally the easiest 3 point spot in basketball, wide open, he missed it all.
He had people tricked last year with a really small sample size

@DanR LOL
@wissox said in St Johns Game Thread:
Man these guys are pawing all over us, violating us, mutilating us, molesting us, accosting us, but Ochai gives him a touch on the shoulder, Braun does too and it's whistle, whistle, whistle. Of course we might want to guard the arc
Problematic refs tonight
Mike Anderson teams do not play slow that's for sure.
We knew this would be high scoring.
@BeddieKU23 said in St Johns Game Thread:
Guard 1 guy
Kansas defense guard literally anyone challenge (impossible)
Dajuan 4th foul...PAIN
We knew the kid for ST Johns would heat up. Was shocked he only had one attempt the first half. He is too good for that he is a guy you ask to force looks if needed.
Cheap foul on Dajuan...damn it
