KU vs USC game thread • Mar 23, 2021 03:26 AM

@Kcmatt7 said in KU vs USC game thread:

@BeddieKU23 if you told me we replaced everyone but Jalen in that starting 5 for next season I wouldn’t be upset.

I think Dave and Ochai are fine supporting cast guys and you certainly aren't running either off but yeah.

@DanR said in KU vs USC game thread:

I'm not mad at the players. I just think coach gave up and tried his little stupid fantasy five guard option

I mean, nothing mattered tonight. Might as well do w/e, just didn't have the athletes for this game.

Hopefully we see a lot of roster changes.

@Kcmatt7 said in KU vs USC game thread:

Harris just abused right there

He is a nice 6th man type but you can see why the staff wants to add guys.

@Kcmatt7 said in KU vs USC game thread:

Reality is we have two blue chippers on the team when we usually have 5+

Recruiting needs to pick up

Gonna have to rely on transfers for next year and of course some internal improvement. It's a decent core here but like you mentioned we need to add two actual guards. Preferably you know, they are fast. That would change the whole dynamic. There is a good core here but just so many wings.

Repeat of the Tennessee game. Every shot wide open

We need athletes man.

Give me a PG and SG to start next season. Braun should never be more than a super sub

In the works. Watch this space 👀👀

@Kcmatt7 said in KU vs USC game thread:

This team is exactly who we thought they were to start the season. Bill Self sprinkled some fair dust mid season to get them to #2 in the B12 but this team just has too many flaws

Pure Bill Self magic. With Calipari do we make the tournament?

KU vs USC game thread • Mar 23, 2021 02:28 AM

Really a shame we didn't have the tournament last year.

@BeddieKU23 said in KU vs USC game thread:

Gonna be a long offseason once again

Hopefully some key additions.

On The Bright Side • Mar 23, 2021 02:15 AM

This was the worst offensive team in Bill's tenure at KU the whole time. Really impressive to get the wins this team did tbh.

KU vs USC game thread • Mar 23, 2021 01:46 AM

Struggle bus game

@Kcmatt7 said in 2021 Transfer Talk/List:

@BeddieKU23 easier to ask guys to leave if they don’t have to sit out

Exactly. Portal will probably hit over 1000. More names will start enter as teams are eliminated from the tournament.

@BeddieKU23 said in 2021 Transfer Talk/List:

I'm fascinated because we got 3-4 guys on scholarship that will never make a big difference in the win loss column of this team. This fascinates me also in regards to Self, does he have loyalty for guys or asks guys to find themselves a more appropriate level to play at. Will be interesting to see the chess match after the season.

Imagine this will sort itself out just fine.

Oh hai https://247sports.com/Article/UMKC-senior-Brandon-McKissic-hits-the-transfer-market-162881730/ ↗

Also yes.

Seems like to me, KU can and should take two guards. Imagine there will be plenty of room.

I am fascinated more then usual about what the roster turnover is going to be after this year. It is so easy to leave now and kids want to play.

Yeah this year especially was always going to be insane.

Not really a transfer but 6'4 Combo Guard Jameel Brown de-commits from Purdue

Penn State

Can't see KU having a shot with Kessler.

@FarmerJayhawk said in 2021 Recruiting:

Bossi reporting we’re in on the PG that decommitted from Louisville after they fired a couple assistants. Can he also bring Carlik Jones along?

What's his name you re call ?

Bobby Pettiford. Good athlete, not really a good shooter. So take it to the bank lol

Gimme fast guys that can create after this year all day long.

Bill is a pretty good coach I tell you what

@BeddieKU23 said in Today's Games Thread:

Imagine having that roster with 3 possible draft picks and 3 others that will play professionally and lose in the first round. @BShark

7th, 8th best coach in the league?

Imagine Bill Self had Jones and Sims.

@FarmerJayhawk said in Today's Games Thread:

Abilene Christian doesn’t look like they should be on the same floor with Texas but still within a possession late in the first

Note who the coach of the Texas Longhorns is. He isn't very good.

@BeddieKU23 said in 2021 Transfer Talk/List:

@BShark

I'd take walker of those on the portal so far

Of course I meant in addition to him. We'd be stacked.

@BeddieKU23 said in 2021 Transfer Talk/List:

Wasn't much a fan of Love think he wasn't a fit for Roy and don't see the fit here. Just a name at this point

Like, if you let me pick I'd snag Myreon Jones.

On The Bright Side • Mar 20, 2021 08:16 PM

Don't worry, this thread has real potential.

@FarmerJayhawk said in 2021 Transfer Talk/List:

Lots of smoke that Caleb Love is leaving UNC

There is no way around it he was bad this year, but I'd take him in addition to Walker. We need guards and he will improve.

@Crimsonorblue22 said in That Other Team From Spokane game thread:

Mitch had a bucket? Threw his body for a xtra possession and won the jump ball

He also made Bill lose his mind a couple times.

Harris and Hope.... • Mar 20, 2021 07:27 PM

@FarmerJayhawk said in Harris and Hope....:

Harris and Garrett are the new splash brothers I don’t make the rules

Shit man the Harris/Walker back court is gonna be lit.

That Other Team From Spokane game thread • Mar 20, 2021 07:21 PM

Nothing but respect for the Groves brothers though, they played their asses off.

That Other Team From Spokane game thread • Mar 20, 2021 07:11 PM

Hmm, game isn't quite over yet.

That Other Team From Spokane game thread • Mar 20, 2021 07:06 PM

Dave is FEELING it this half.

That Other Team From Spokane game thread • Mar 20, 2021 07:05 PM

The thing about daring open threes is eventually even this KU team will make them.

That Other Team From Spokane game thread • Mar 20, 2021 07:02 PM

Dajuan is playing hard that's for sure.

That Other Team From Spokane game thread • Mar 20, 2021 07:01 PM

lol Braun

@stoptheflop said in That Other Team From Spokane game thread:

There just isn't any reason for Mitch to be on the team next year. He doesn't add anything useful.

Hopefully he won't need minutes since KU is adding some players.

@Crimsonorblue22 said in That Other Team From Spokane game thread:

Hope Dave is healthy

Not quite 100% is what I heard.

That Other Team From Spokane game thread • Mar 20, 2021 06:58 PM

Realistically Tanner Groves should be fouled out already.

And 1 for Mac on that turnaround. Officials suck

Blatant hack, glad someone else noticed.

Marcus the sniper Garrett

And we've had that before. Mason wasn't a great 3-point shooter when he started at Kansas. He worked at it.

Definitely trust the staff in these situations.

That Other Team From Spokane game thread • Mar 20, 2021 06:51 PM

Looking forward to the Harris + Walker back court.

The groves have 70% of their points. Box and 2 this shit

Playing 6 players is a defensive strategy I don’t think is explored enough.

Bruce does it all the time, he is the 6th player.
