Anybody watching Duke vs Texas? • Nov 24, 2017 11:37 PM

Silvio should be on campus by then.

Never forget Self coaches circles around Shaka.

Well I hope more local tv deals get worked out for you. People in Kansas shouldn't have to jump through hoops to watch a KU game.

@Big-Clyde52 :( Where are you at brother?

@HighEliteMajor Yeah I'd have a minimum 30 minute travel time to get to a bar with the game on. Thankfully I do generally get 38 in over the air. Last game it wasn't coming in so I had to fire up PSVUE and a vpn.

Hope this ability to deal locally spreads over local Kansas stations again like it USED TO BE.

@BShark

Do you think Zenger is trying to appease all the POd donors in Johnson County that want him gone and now that the football program is circling the drain and about to take him along he is looking for friends?

Heh, we can hope. I do think that they simply weren't getting the sub numbers they were hoping to get for the lowest tier KU hoops games.

@jayballer54 Vick has been otherworldly through 4 games. I don't think he can keep up these numbers when the schedule gets tougher but damn.

Arizona struggling, just lost their second game in a row. Looks like a two man team with Trier and Ayton.

Which is pretty crazy considering they are loaded with 4/5*. Not sure exactly what to make of this. Also man...if we had Ayton... :(

With the 38 deal in place now I would THINK this won't be an issue going forward. Just let local channels pick up the JTV games if they want them.

KU Will Be In Tip-Off NIT • Nov 23, 2017 05:32 PM

Next year. Also Louisville, Tenn and Marquette. A chance for Marquette fans to watch Grimes! :joy:

Oh, well I figured KU would win that one by a million lol.

dylans said:

Wow! Wins I hope?

Yep. College Park is currently 2-1 (I think) at the Washington TOC. The only other college level player they have is Shannon Scott who is a JUCO level guy.

I know they lost to EJ Liddell's team (Grimes had 23 in this one, didn't get much help), and have two wins. I believe these are all the games they have played so far but it can be difficult to find the info. Usually the box scores are incomplete too...they only bother posting up the stats for legit recruits.

Grimes went for 50 AGAIN. 18 rebounds and 12 assists in that game too...

Followed it up with 27/10/6.

Probably tired in game 2, as they were on the same day, so I'll excuse not breaking 50 again. :joy:

Frank is killing it on ESPN right now... • Nov 23, 2017 03:35 PM

@mayjay You said Fox is the quickest you ever seen ? - -Now I will agree very quick - just a question though , have you per chance had the opportunity to see whz his name Tremont Waters the frosh at LSU Ku was recruiting for a bit. - -Mercy you talk quick - watched him yesterday dropped 39 against Marquette pretty damn good. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Yeah he has been balling out. KU backed off on this one. I think this is a situation that worked out best for both parties. He wouldn't have got the shots and minutes ~~his dad~~ he wanted at KU this season.

mayjay said:

@BShark At least 35 pts. People thought Southern could be close, too. I think the team is getting into a groove we have seldom seen.

To be fair, SDSU played a horrific first half, nowhere near their normal numbers. Part of that was us I'm sure but still something to keep in mind as they did miss some good looks.

Holiday Hoops • Nov 23, 2017 03:27 PM

So Arizona lost to NC State which is awesome.

BUT OMG LOOK AT ALL THESE FIVE STARS ON THE BENCH FOR AZ. THE WHALE DOESN'T PLAY HIS FIVE STARS. PLEASE EMBARGO HIM. Kthx.

One of my cousins is an Oakland grad. Actually just called to wish her family a happy turkey day.

I think this is a game KU should win by about 20 but you never know when the bench is so thin. A quick whistle on Doke can make ANY game harder.

Giving Thanks • Nov 23, 2017 02:55 PM

Right on brother @jayballer54

For all concerned I'm doing better. Eating MUCH better, and doing small exercises for now until I can do more.

Dotson is a pure point. He was offered the keys. It's a bad look if he doesn't start at PG so unless it's a really inferior option (which I doubt) I'd say he officially starts at PG. Also he isn't as rough of a shot as Garrett, but he does need some work there.

Grimes is a lot different than Young imo. Young has in the gym shooting range. Grimes doesn't but he has more explosive athleticism to his game.

I'll be honest I didn't think this thread would break 50 replies.

Great quote from Texas Southern's head coach about scouting KU in the post game. :joy:

Fire Beatty. Fire him now. • Nov 22, 2017 01:56 AM

I'm betting hiring Les Miles with Tony Hull retained could keep any of the Louisiana recruits that haven't already backed out.

I'd take Les in a second but I don't think he would take the job.

Turned off the Matt Scott updates that were ahead of stream in Slack. Sry about that.

Thanks! I'm on stream vision tonight so fairly behind.

KirkIsMyHinrich said:

I said earlier that I would be more excited if KU got Grimes than I would if they got Williamson, and I stand by that. Grimes is a stud. So happy he's a Jayhawk.

I'll take Zion too (but I don't think it happens).

Michael Porter Jr Likely Out For Year • Nov 22, 2017 01:53 AM

@HighEliteMajor love that post, perfect.

Billy • Nov 21, 2017 08:03 PM

lol

Even if true maybe he can pay it back and just take like a 9 game suspension?

Michael Porter Jr Likely Out For Year • Nov 21, 2017 08:02 PM

Tough break for @elpoyo

Thoughts on SDSU game • Nov 18, 2017 12:31 PM

Sorry I couldn't be in game chat last night guys. I had a panic attack but I'm okay now.

Alexander, Diallo...Preston? • Nov 17, 2017 10:38 PM

@REHawk Yeah I just felt it was worth posting another side of the situation. I hope she is right, but obviously it's not cut and dry, or KU is just being super cautious. It is frustrating for sure.

You STOP THAT lol. - -Mitch tries ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Mitch seems like a great kid, but you know what I mean! :p

Brad Stevens • Nov 17, 2017 10:21 PM

Yeah I don't see him going back to college.

Alexander, Diallo...Preston? • Nov 17, 2017 09:26 PM

She also mentioned the car is a pretty old model. Maybe a hurricane damaged car bought on the cheapy cheap?

Alexander, Diallo...Preston? • Nov 17, 2017 09:25 PM

Billy's mom was pretty annoyed on twitter. She seems sure that the car is used and completely legal. Also that Billy has a proper license. Mentioned that she didn't realize she had to register the car with the school.

If all this is the case I'm not sure how this has not been cleared up.

His profile on some sites lists SDSU as his only offer but he probably had other offers. None would have been power programs of course.

Is the Jacobs brother a shooter?

I don't believe so.

Except for one tournament this summer Dotson has been Under Armor.

Are we done recruiting? • Nov 17, 2017 05:56 PM

@RockkChalkk Sounds like he wants to add a shooter, which makes sense. So if guys leave early and they don't land Romeo I'm sure they'd look around late. Just too early to know who they'd be going after whether it's a HS recruit or grad transfer.

Answer is a firm no.

My post on the Marquette 247 forum is "pending approval". LOL.

@BeddieKU23 Found the vip thread on Grimes on their board. What a train wreck. Just keep believing all that I guess buddy.

I had mainly been thinking of the guy that was actively posting on the KU 247 board.

Good grief. The kid had a custom KU jersey ready to go. This can't be super hard to figure out. Completely agree he wanted to enjoy the process and make sure. Turns out according to him he didn't verbal to the staff as early as I heard, but I did hear that from multiple people, on the same day. Maybe it was just, super close to and basically a verbal. Then he told the staff :100: last Sunday when he said.

Q made it clear in articles that it was his decision and his mom didn't push him.

Well @nuleafjhawk we tend to beat the Larry Bird down in Mancrappin so what's another one?

Ah I think I missed that or just glazed over it. The Grimes thread was a blur. :joy:
