Chuck only played 4 minutes. I'm excited.

What did Jesse do?
He predicted the final score at KU 77 TCU 67 lol
approxinfinity said:
Over-under on 4 TO's for Vick next game?
Over if he plays at least 20 minutes.
Woodrow said:
16 minutes for Grimes and 25 for Och
Fouls played a factor, but man, Agbaji is one of our best three perimeter defenders already...
Here is a box score with minutes.
@approxinfinity Dedric is pretty okay
I'm fired up @Crimsonorblue22
approxinfinity said:
They shot 43% from 3 and we shot 24% lol
Bill lives for stats like this.
LOVE LOVE LOVE how aggressive KU was tonight. Got to the ft line and hit quite a few there too.
GAHT DAM
Woodrow said:
Only 12 turnovers tonight. Take away Vick and everyone else did much better valuing the ball.
Yep, Vick had half of those..

Big win
BILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLY SELF

Agbaji finishing on the floor over Grimes in his first game...WOW!
Kid can defend, Grimes can't.
KirkIsMyHinrich said:
And 1. Dedric is bailing us out.
Hard carrying yet again.
DanR said:
Should have been driving and shooting free throws instead of chucking crap
TCU is definitely packing the paint. Every opponent will though, so Bill has to finesse.

Grimes makes that open 3 and it's totally different and of course he didnt come close
He has missed a couple super wide open looks.
Pretty much all season every game.
I didn't expect him to light the world on fire but damn, gotta make the open ones. His % is soooo bad especially if you remove the MSU game, might keep him at KU another year.

Time to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory......
TRUST BILL

If KU holds on, this is totally Bill Self finessing a win.
Woodrow said:
So is Grimes cut out of the rotation? He has t played but maybe 10 minutes.
This box score is going to be WILD.
Dotson is 0-6 from the field tonight and I still think he has been a net positive. Saran wrap on D.
Dotson, Garrett and Agbaji are all + defenders.
BeddieKU23 said:
Gotta show that duke promo every 5 minutes
How else would they make sure we are vomiting?
Crimsonorblue22 said:
Fran speechless
FREEZE THIS MOMENT IN TIME
wissox said:
Nice little run since Vick left the game.
Vick isn't it these days.
Dedric is feasting
Yikes Vick
BeddieKU23 said:
Need a basket off this timeout
Best in the biz drawing it up, just need the players to execute.
I really like Ochai on the defensive end too. Moves well and he is big/long so he can be disruptive.
BeddieKU23 said:
Ugh
Had to know it wouldn't be easy...
DCHawker said:
@BShark If playing within himself is anything like being in his head, I wouldn't think that was a good thing.....
HA! I mean just playing smart and not trying to do too much.
DCHawker said:
Not a bad stat line for Ochai - 7 pts, perfect from the field, 2 RBs, 2 steals, an assist and block and no TOs (looking at your LaG)....
I wish Vick could play within himself like Ochai does.
So we kind of have to wonder why Ochai was taking a RS in the first place.
KirkIsMyHinrich said:
I am in favor of starting Agbaji.
Dude is just all around solid. Really athletic too.
Damn it Q

The Frogs are getting into the paint and close to the rim with the greatest of ease...
Yes, and I fear that will be what life will be like from now on without Doke to protect the rim.
Oh it will definitely be an issue. The team is still mostly playing solid defense tonight.
interior defense?
The biggest issue now is lack of a rim protector. Dedric as the only big is very far from that. Mitch is actually quite good defensively, but as a 5 with 4 other guards, certainly he would run into match-up problems and he is more of a help defender in the paint. Dave has the tools, but is 19.

@BShark what is your scotch of choice
Not drinking tonight which is probably why my posting is mildly less obnoxious.

BShark said:
Really good minutes from KJ, Garrett and Ochai. Garrett is the clear back-up PG imo. So Garrett is the back-up PG and the starting 4. VERSATILE!
Yep. I like this a lot. At the 4 he can focus on defense, at PG focus on distribution.
Lay-up or pass it for Garrett lol.

Ochai is obviously a keeper.

About 10 minutes with out Dotson and Q? I'll take it.

@nuleafjhawk I would bet you this team still ends up with a 2 or 3 seed.
nuleafjhawk said:
This is one of the worst KU teams in history.
This team isn't even among Bill's worst teams yet. Let's see where the dust settles.
DanR said:
Why are they talking about tray young
FRAN
It's been said before but this KU team really lacks shooting. Generally they make it ugly for the other team as well, which is happening again tonight.
KirkIsMyHinrich said:
I actually like KJ. I know he's slow but he does good things.
He's fine at the 4.
Grimes needs to be able to hit that three.
KirkIsMyHinrich said:
Play DMac, Bill!
No kidding. No more Chuck ever.

approxinfinity said:
I have nothing nice to say about Charlie. I just hope he's capable of much more than he's shown. Does he have a relationship with a future recruit?
He went to the same HS of current KU target Adam Miller. Not sure if they know each other. I watched Miller play the other night. He's really good, top junior in Illinois.
The only reason to retain Moore is if Miller will come to KU lol

OCHAI> Moore, KJ
Yup

If only there was someone warning everyone else before the season started.
BeddieKU23 said:
So far ochai looks like right at home
Yeah he looks fine. Otoh I am not sure why Charlie plays.
If I were Bill (lol) I'd have an 8 man rotation consisting of: Dotson, Grimes, Vick, Garrett, Ochai, Dedric, Dave and Mitch.
