Woof refs.

Kind of crazy that WVU is 7-10 from 3 in the 2nd half...

@BShark

It was. He had position and both feet outside the circle.

I thought so too....

Got Higginsed...

LOL KONATE

That really could have been a charge. Super close I think.

What the effing offense are they running?????

KU or wvu?, us none and them chucking

KU is running the one point a minute offense. It isn't very effective...

As of today Vick's stock has dropped and it looks like he is going to make a return.

Not sure how I feel about this. Do you have any word on who is leaving the program to make room for Agbaji?

@HighEliteMajor was correct again.

It's almost like ISU sucks.

Oklahoma is now 16-10. That is all, carry on.

Ochai went off tonight for 41 points and didn't play the 4th quarter.

Self visited JRE tonight.

NCAA Basketball Corruption? • Feb 16, 2018 02:17 PM

One case was already thrown out. A very prosecutor friendly judge held off another three attempts for now. I still think this is mostly a bunch of chest puffing. Time will tell.

We will see. It's all hot air until something happens.

Things could be worse • Feb 15, 2018 06:47 PM

@JayHawkFanToo Well, I'm definitely glad that KU isn't doing it the same way as Cal. that's for sure. Love having multi-year players with flaws, you get to know them and watch them develop.

@JayHawkFanToo Sure but he shouldn't be on the hot seat. It would be like saying Self should be on the hot seat. Also Cal does have a lot of FFs.

He has two less than he has. :boom:

YEPPPPPPPP

Things could be worse • Feb 15, 2018 06:17 PM

@JayHawkFanToo Eh, Self is pretty highly paid too and constructed the current roster*. It's entirely possible that the top end coaches in college hoops and football are pretty grossly overpaid...

*I like Self, obviously. I'm just saying that if we want to bring money into it Self only has 1 title too. I don't know the contract of either Cal or Self w/o looking.

@Kcmatt7 :moneybag: talks :poop: walks

I mean, I love seeing UK lose. And they legitimately could miss the tournament if they lose on Saturday. But Cal isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

I am really excited to see what happens with Gabriel, Vanderbilt, Richards and Washington though. They could be horrible next season if they don't keep 3 out of those 4.

Cal will keep them in the fold.

I don't think UK will miss the tournament. They should get to 20 wins which LOCKS you in when your name is Kentucky.

#14 is still within reach • Feb 15, 2018 05:10 PM

I think KSU will end up 11-7 in league.

2019 Recruiting • Feb 15, 2018 05:09 PM

@jayballer73 We should meet up at a game some time. I've been to a few of Zach's games as well.

Lol at Cal being on the hot seat.

@BShark It looks like 'Tucky is headed into a buzzsaw with their remaining schedule. 4 out of 5 of their remaining games are against probable tourney teams.

My guess would be 3-2 but I'd love to see them flame out and go like 1-4. XD

2019 Recruiting • Feb 15, 2018 03:11 PM

@BeddieKU23 Maybe he wants Kansas? Don't see him listed on Rivals or 247 but he claims an offer on twitter. Makes sense that we would see him a lot because of Achiuwa. Someone to keep an eye on if other options don't work out I suppose.

Are we still allowed to have DBOs? I feel like Pierce could be a fine, fine director of basketball ops. :joy:

Didn't realize the hysteria Indiana fans are going to land Langford.. This recruitment certainly isn't easy

This is a fun recruitment. Crazy that it never would have even taken place w/o the FBI scandal. Kid loves Louisville still, he just can't go there.

Recruiting Thread • Feb 15, 2018 03:01 PM

Speaking of NBA players I'd love to see Pierce brought on in some role if he'd be down for it.

#14 is still within reach • Feb 15, 2018 02:54 PM

@BeddieKU23 Yeah they have lost 4 in a row now. I'll never count Cal out though, he has had some high loss teams reach to ff.

Recruiting Thread • Feb 15, 2018 02:40 PM

It is listed as an unofficial currently.

KU did this with Dotson and Grimes too (checking in before they took visits to other schools).

Kentucky is now under .500 in SEC play. So things could always be worse.

Can't imagine the fan boards right now. They must have already sent death threats to Calipari by now.

Heh, I haven't checked since after their loss to KU.

This year shows the weakness in Cal's plan though. When there is a weaker recruiting class (overall talent perspective, not in terms of UK not having a huge class because they always do) he is going to suffer.

His 17 class was almost nothing but 5 stars...but it was a down class. 18 is too, tbh. Looks like UK is avoiding a big class this year and will actually not have too many FR next year.

@JayHawkFanToo Seems like the whole case could be falling apart based on current news on it.

Dedric is going to be a complete badass from everything I've heard.

Also yes, KJ is going to play the 4 spot.

Quinerly to Nova as expected..

Probably would have been the pick in the first place if his recruitment had been totally clean.

Recruiting Thread • Feb 14, 2018 04:05 PM

Self will be visiting Romeo today.

Hilarious Player Comps • Feb 14, 2018 03:57 PM

According to cyfan Cam Lard = Antonio McDyess

So I figured I would throw out my own KU comps.

Doke = Shaq

Svi - Manu Ginobili

Graham = Chris Paul

Vick = Jimmy Butler

Malik = MJ

Not sure how we lose, Self must be terrible.

THE SKY WASN'T FALLING • Feb 14, 2018 01:57 PM

@HighEliteMajor Exactly.

One positive that may have come from this game (only time will tell) is maybe Graham got through to Vick.

Does he just do better against bad teams?

That's the case for most players. I thought Graham and Svi would look a lot better tonight too though. ISU is pretty short defensively.

THE SKY WASN'T FALLING • Feb 14, 2018 04:37 AM

Iowa State sucks hard is the translation. I just c/p their Kenpom profile. They are ranked ahead of Washington who we lost to though. 17-8 Washington. So sometimes Kenpom is goofy.

Ochai Agbaji commits to Kansas • Feb 14, 2018 04:27 AM

Kid has some ups.

THE SKY WASN'T FALLING • Feb 14, 2018 04:26 AM

I mean it was a good win considering the team had been reeling. Graham and Svi not playing well again is an issue so hopefully they get it together.

This doesn't change that they are easily the worst team in the league. I expect them to turn it around in a big way next year though.

In all honesty it’s a little ludicrous that we as fans (myself included at times) are giving these guys such a tough time. We just won our 20th game for the 29th season in a row (NCAA record). We are pretty much guaranteed another tournament birth for the 29th straight year (NCAA record). Even if we don’t win the conference I think we’ll be okay friends. Did I mention that Self has signed the 3rd best recruiting class and could add to it with Langford plus our transfers. Let’s all get to the field house Saturday and support the heck outta these guys. It will be a special day with the 08 team as well as game day in town.

We are pretty spoiled.

Markese 21 points in a tough loss to Simeon. Simeon has multiple D1 level guys including Talen Horton-Tucker who is gonna be a real problem at ISU.

Grimes played a game tonight and his team won their district. When I see stats from that game I will post.
