@BShark I think he’s tough!

Hopefully not a broken nose is the main thing.

Ugly end to it. Had them on the ropes and now it will be tight

What happens when you play Jamari and sit Flory basically. Gotta keep guys fresh for this so I get it. Thankfully some weaker opponents to start and Syracuse just announced their best player won't play in this event.

Players Era Bologna Tourney • Nov 24, 2025 09:16 PM

Need Tre White to be okay

@Layla Even if Layla is AI, I thought this was one of the better responses and wouldn't mind seeing more of them. While AI can make some serious errors, when I Google a topic, more often than not, the AI answers are very helpful. Of course it's always good to check multiple sources when trying to get an accurate answer.

Sure. Also, you’re banned for also being AI!

Dead internet theory is alive and well.

@FarmerJayhawk said in 2025 Chiefs:

How about 8-3 Chicago! With Philly losing we’re now tied for the 2 seed 😎

With a negative point differential and beating one team with a winning record at the time. That is wild to me. However I would love to see the Bears win the division just to see all the KSU/Packer combo fans suffer.

@benshawks08 said in Duke Game:

Flory's athleticism is always what gets talked about but to me his footwork has been really good. His ability to get to the other side of the rim with an array of pivots makes him really hard to guard.

His handling has impressed me as well

Duke Game • Nov 20, 2025 05:56 PM

@BeddieKU23 unfortunately Self has always been that way about injuries. The Duke game was all about Flory. KU won the Flory minutes but was -14 when he sat.

Duke Game • Nov 20, 2025 05:54 PM

@BeddieKU23 the main thing is getting Darryn back. This team isn't going anywhere without him. I'm encouraged by Tre and Flory especially.

Duke Game • Nov 20, 2025 02:33 AM

@Jhawk69 For those wondering, he legitimately can't be. He had two years of JUCO before two years in D1 so this is already his fifth year. He only got that due to the Pavia ruling.

2025 Chiefs • Nov 17, 2025 12:18 AM

This is simply a bad football team.

Yeah Maryland so far a very good fit for diggy

Notably he was going to play for Buzz last year as well at A&M but some things with his academics were in doubt which is why KU ended up with him so late in the process. Definitely a good fit for Buzz.

@Crimsonorblue22 said in UNC Matchup Friday Night:

Do you guys remember Luke Barnwell from sunrise in wichita? I was hoping we'd pick him when he left and joined Iowa's staff. I saw his brother in wichita yesterday, he use to play on our team in the summer. He told me he would've joined KU's staff if they would've asked. Wondered what you all thought? They're a big KU family, and I think Luke did a great job at sunrise.

Nice guy not good enough for KU imo

Princeton • Nov 16, 2025 04:30 PM

I haven't seen anything official yet but I suspect he will be out another 2-3 weeks

Princeton • Nov 15, 2025 08:49 PM

@BeddieKU23 said in Princeton:

He's close to the worst guard that's played here. Stats would agree too. Needs to go down a level

Agree. He was brutal today.

Princeton • Nov 15, 2025 08:38 PM

@bskeet said in Princeton:

Tre White getting his groove today.

Was nice to see him rebound.

Princeton • Nov 15, 2025 08:37 PM

@BeddieKU23 said in Princeton:

Bidunga really stepped up and saved this game on both ends. Great energy and confidence finishing plays

He surprised me a few times today

@BeddieKU23 said in Princeton:

Look like a bubble team at best

Without Darryn I agree

Princeton • Nov 15, 2025 06:54 PM

Oh my we are bad bad

Princeton • Nov 14, 2025 05:40 PM

Darryn confirmed out again. At least we know in advance this time. I was offered a ticket to the game and won't be going now.

Texas A&M CC • Nov 13, 2025 04:15 PM

@focojayhawk One of my friends (also an avid Jayhawks fan born in Lawrence and REGRETABLY a Broncos fan) is also in that area I believe. @KirkIsMyHinrich

2026 Recruiting ( Crazy but ) • Nov 13, 2025 04:14 PM

All mens commits are now signed, for whatever that is worth.

Texas A&M CC • Nov 12, 2025 02:29 PM

A reputable poster on 247 said they were at the GB game and saw him grabbing his hamstring when he was with the trainer. This is all really unfortunate.

@BShark said in Texas A&M CC:

This team has absolutely no idea how to play together yet. That will come with time, and shorter rotations.

I would think we would not see any more Samis at the 5

That and Ngala first half minutes are not something that will happen often I'd say :face_with_tears_of_joy:

@BShark said in Texas A&M CC:

No Darryn tonight, it would seem.

Is it a discipline issue? That would honestly be better than cramps…

Injury related is what has been reported so far

@BeddieKU23 said in Texas A&M CC:

@Gorilla72

Doubt we will know until tip with how they choosing to disclose injury info with him.

What a mess

Hard to remember a time in the Self era when KU didn't play coy about injuries.

Texas A&M CC • Nov 12, 2025 01:15 AM

Kohl and Tiller are definitely ones to try and keep...

Texas A&M CC • Nov 12, 2025 12:42 AM

@Crimsonorblue22 Yes multiple times already. It's definitely a real issue.

Texas A&M CC • Nov 11, 2025 11:51 PM

No Darryn tonight, it would seem.

UNC Matchup Friday Night • Nov 11, 2025 03:30 PM

@dylans My guess is second weekend but it will depend on seeding and match-ups of course.

UNC Matchup Friday Night • Nov 09, 2025 11:00 PM

I was doing some thinking (dangerous for me) and my biggest complaint so far is Elmarko plays too much while being rather worthless. I'd prefer that neither of Marko and Mari be in the top 7 by seasons end but it is also clear that Elmarko is another in the long line of Bill pets. His stats as a Freshman for the minutes he had, there are about 14 players in that range during Self's entire time at Kansas. All of them other than Svi washed out of the program and Svi had the excuse of being 16 or however old he was exactly. I think Tiller could very well end up being our second best player but it is FAR too early to say. Melvin is a good player but he does need to show me some shot making against P4 competition. Main thing for Tre is just getting his rebounding up to how it was his previous three seasons. Against UNC it was somewhat understandable given their front line but he also didn't rebound against Green Bay...

@rcjhdraft said in 2026 Recruiting ( Crazy but ):

Sure seems like Taylor would've been a Jayhawk if the staff went all in. They liked Atkins more and I don't think Taylor's gonna be worth the bag that he's gonna get

Correct

UNC Matchup Friday Night • Nov 09, 2025 04:21 PM

Not dooming yet after game 2. It's a tough schedule. Players will improve. I'm as excited for Bryson and Kohl as I have been for a frosh in awhile not counting DP. Both should have a bright future here.

I can’t see anyone beating the alleged Kentucky offer that’s floating around.

Almost always inflated but still, insane.

If the rumor I heard is true he’s getting even more than Dybantsa.

Not sure Stokes would have been top 5 in this last class. Supply and demand I guess!

@BShark

Hays defensively is better

Agree. Any time last night the ball touched the paint for KU, it ended up in a great look.

KU Vs Green Bay Game Chat • Nov 04, 2025 12:07 AM

Starting line-up is Darryn/Melvin/Kohl/Tre/Flory

@rockchalkjayhawk Need the oline to get healthy/return from their spiritual journey (or w/e Simmons is doing)

2025 Chiefs • Nov 02, 2025 05:12 PM

Should be a fun game today. Wide range of outcomes on the table imo. I'll be watching the game at a church event. Some football and fellowship.

Lance Leipold • Nov 02, 2025 04:10 PM

@kjayhawks lance doesn't seem to fire guys much. Very much a "keep grinding" guy so I would be very surprised if he fires DK.

@dylans said in Jayhawks vs. Roll Tiges Thread:

@BShark So you're saying Bill thinks they have more to give. Good sign for things to come.

That is my read on it. And last year's team especially he knew was soft.

Jayhawks vs. Roll Tiges Thread • Oct 31, 2025 05:03 PM

Bill is publicly dumping on them, he never would have done that the last two years we are so back.

We're preseason Number ... 19 • Oct 29, 2025 08:00 PM

@BeddieKU23 said in We're preseason Number ... 19:

Just 2 games but neither Council or Elmarko have shown that they are any different then Harris when it comes to stretching the court from 3. Not going to work against good teams.

Very low team 3PA again, which is classic Bill in a bad way.

We're preseason Number ... 19 • Oct 29, 2025 03:44 PM

@approxinfinity Agree we need all of them. Not a terrible group at least.

@dylans said in We're preseason Number ... 19:

Flory has the best pick and roll game. The rest of his game needs a ton of polish.

This I would agree with, so he does pair well with Darryn in that way.

We're preseason Number ... 19 • Oct 29, 2025 02:29 PM

Mbiya has some promise, he at least has a "presence" inside which I do not see from Flory.
