@Woodrow Young Selden missed a lot of dunks. That's the closest comparison I can think of to Grimes.

They are actually very similar imo.

It amazes me how Q can look so confident on some shots and then throw up a uncontested airball on another. I don’t remember a player having swings like that in one game.

Yeah he is very hot and cold. He's been engaged tonight though, that's all I really ask for with him at this point.

But for real it might be time to get the good offensive players back in the game.

What was the call? A fake foul on his own rebound pass

Refs felt bad for KSU.

That McGuirl and one was major ugh, but a nice shot on the other end by Dedric.

Hawk8086 said:

OK...3 point lead and Wade and Mawien with 2 fouls....all you could ask for...we just need to take advantage!!

Ironically the 2nd foul on Mawien can help Bruce if it forces him to put Wade back in and Wade doesn't commit another foul this half.

We getting every call better take advantage

After the game in Manhattan I'll take it.

You'll live with that look from Stockard. That wide open three the prior possession was awful though.

This is a Mitch game. He needs to play 25 minutes. No time for Dave.

I gotta agree with this. Play to win. Ride with Mitch.

Words I never thought I'd say.

BShark said:

Trying to be realistic so I won't bother having the HC of the Boston Celtics on this list.

This is in order.

Tony Bennett

Will Wade (if he survives the FBI thing)

Chris Beard

I mostly think the list doesn't matter too much after Bennett. I'd throw more money at him until he said yes.

Whoever we get won't be as good as Bill. How about we get an assistant that can coach defense like we used to play? There has to be another Joe Dooley like defensive guru assistant somewhere.

Woodrow said:

@BShark In your original post were you talking about hypothetically next year if Self is fired or just in general when Self is done @ KU??

That changes the conversation drastically.

Good question.

Feel free to discuss both I'd say. Wade can't remotely be considered if it's after this season.

OH BOY

Top Bill Self Replacement Candidates β€’ Feb 25, 2019 09:30 PM

@HighEliteMajor Bennett is winning at Virginia. You noted this already, but it's pretty remarkable. They aren't Rutgers but they aren't far off of that either.

He is currently 243 - 88 over 10 years. In their previous two ten year stretches before that 167 - 137 and 181 - 132 across 4 coaches. It really took until his 5th year to get it rolling, which I don't think would be an issue at KU. I think he's a really good and realistic hire that will end up in the hall of fame and especially if he spends a big chunk of time in Lawrence.

@BShark I think Wade might not be on the list for a few years.... Just look at his 2019 class. If Bill makes it 3 more years though, I think Wade is a candidate again. You just have to see what happens with him once the dust settles.

I do agree with basically doing whatever it takes to hire one of those 3 though. However, if you couldn't:

  • Steve Wojciechowski
  • Buzz Williams
  • Nate Oats

Emergency Short-Term hires:
- Turgeon
- Hopkins
- Musselman

I wouldn't go anywhere near Turg.

Sounds like Zona is going to get nuked back to the Stone Age by the NCAA. I expect a feeding frenzy when Miller gets canned.

:fingers_crossed_tone2: that this happens and KU doesn't join them.

Hawk8086 said:

@BShark ...I'm with you on Bennett for the most part...but man Beard is awfully good...might put him at the top of the list....but I don't see that happening (intra-conference).
@Kcmatt7 ...Agree on Oats. Buffalo is good and plays really tough defense. Haven't been crazy about the other primary candidates..although Wojo certainly is on the upswing.

Yeah I am not sure he could come here either when apparently the word is he wants the UT job which could be opening very soon. I think he'd be foolish to go to UCLA.
