@benshawks08 Joe struggled yesterday, not sure how he needs to be coached.
He's the only player on this team that gets minutes and "forces" shots imo. Usage is way too high. Is who he is, and not really a Self kinda of player. Don't know if he will transfer after this year but might be better for him.
CBS is drunk

@BShark 😢🙏
Looks like he's too stubborn to die yet. Told me to stop worrying about an old man and enjoy the game. So sassy. :rolling_on_the_floor_laughing:
@benshawks08 I mean defensively. Udeh was switching onto guards. Offensively they bring different things to the table.
@rockchalkjayhawk said in New Mexico State Situation:
I’ve been looking for awhile to find any details on the hazing stuff. Can’t find squat.
With the shooting plot, it’s not hard to make the leap that the hazing was harsh.
Nothing official so far but these appear to be local reporters.
Feels like the game has really slowed down for Udeh lately. Hoping he has turned a corner there. The fact that we really didn't change anything defensively from the stuff we run with KJ is remarkable for a guy Udeh's size. Did a great job moving his feet.
@wissox said in New Mexico State Situation:
The apple doesn't fall far from the coaching family tree apparently.
A real murderers row there.
@mayjay I was trying to make it clear that the suspension was only due to the recent police report. Good mention.
That last part is pretty horrible.
Their roster construction was very questionable. Something Self has done a good job with is having a good team culture, family atmosphere etc... I love that Wayne is around the team. NMSU had by my count at least 3 players that are with their third program. There can be multiple reasons for this of course. We had JCL last year and were his fourth team but certainly you have to look into the circumstances for transfer. I wouldn't want Erik Stevenson on our team, for example.
@Kcmatt7 said in New Mexico State Situation:
Hazing almost always happens because coaches encourage it.
It’s sad every time you hear stories like this.
For sure and like most here I was involved in HS sports. This sounds a bit...above and beyond.
Didn't see a thread for this yet. Pretty crazy.
Summary
Basketball program suspended indefinitely. Shutdown was due to police report filed for hazing activities. Apparently some were sexual in nature. There was a player that was involved in a shooting earlier this year, as well as a big fight among the players. We are already seeing players transfer out.
Coached by Greg Heiar who has previously coached with/for: Steve Forbes (has been rehabbing but took a show cause for Pearl), Will Wade, Larry Eustachy and... GREGGGGGGG Marshall.
We good.
I might not be able to watch. A friend was hospitalized yesterday and I'd never forgive myself if I wasn't there near the end (quite likely). I was hoping to not wake up to an email/voicemail that he had passed over night.
Cats are tough. If they didn't turn it over so much they could be great.
@Crimsonorblue22 said in Other games:
Ksu about to get beat?
Doubtful. Tech is the worst team in the league and missing players.
Also Bill literally tried to help Calipari in the post game after we played them. He laid out our plan of attack. Oscar still just gets absolutely obliterated on pnr. Cal is a stooge.
@benshawks08 Yes it uploads most games. Hasn't been an upload for a bit which is odd. I'll try and remember to keep checking.
Was Duke a one coach "program"?
My column:
lolololololololololololllllllllllllll
@BeddieKU23 Still without Miles and the big kid too.
Shaka Smart is in the top 10 right now. Honestly think a smaller school is a better fit for him.
Checking in on a recruit I really wanted: https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/players/jayden-epps-1.html ↗
Even better than I would have guessed as a FR. We didn't really take anyone at his position last year.
@BeddieKU23 said in Bubble Watch:
There is no way those people are real fans
RR is something else man. KU cheats while UK is pure as snow. Calipari cheated before he got to UK but immediately stopped cheating once he got there btw.
@Kcmatt7 UK fans think so 🐦 View Tweet
Going :dashing_away: into the lab :man_scientist: for Tuesday's :fa-calendar: game 🧵 title.
I think the start was 5-19 from the floor which means they finished 28-41.
Would not have thought we would end up shooting 55% from the floor in this game after the way we started I tell you what.
@DCHawker said in Chef Dick vs Conference Traitors Game Thread:
We've complained - rightfully - about our bench production. OU's has 0 points on 0-7 shooting...
Yep.
Our bench has been very nice in this recent stretch. I think we have seen our tournament 7. Starters + Udeh + Joe. MJ I think is only stealing minutes when Bill is more comfortable.
UGA has 19 points in 17 minutes of 2nd half play and is still ahead okay sure.
@kjayhawks Gonna need a DAWGS win here.
What a revelation Udeh is now. Hell of a job by the staff.
YMCA alert
Nevermind on that earlier message. Thought the start time was one hour earlier. Had my brother come over to help. Light work.
@dylans said in Chef Dick vs Conference Traitors Game Thread:
Early games are not my favorite. But at least it’s not an 11 am game!
I won't be able to watch most or possibly all of it. Some work to do outside.
We good.
He'd look better here. Big part of this is the loss of Beard. Big drop off in coaching to Rodney Perry.
I'd take Hunter in a second if he enters the portal again because of the Beard situation.
I hope we are not revisiting this discussion in November as we score 60 points in a close win in our exhibition. :face_with_tears_of_joy:
@BeddieKU23 said in 2023 Transfer Portal:
Hoop Math has him at 49% on 2 pt jumpers. 72% on shots at the rim matching "he dunks a lot".
Not as bad as I thought. Though I imagine anything not a dunk/lay-up is classified as a jumper.
He dunks a lot. I'd love to see his two point percentage on jump shots but I think those kind of stats are locked behind pay sites (or individual research which would take a lot of time). I really don't like that pairing offensively.
@kjayhawks said in 2023 Transfer Portal:
Udeh is the go to guy next season book it
KJ will still start I think.
@Kcmatt7 said in 2024 recruiting thread:
Hope they land him. Seems like KSU is in deep as well?
Yes. Coaching tie or some such.

Isaiah Evans
KD looking shot.
Has he visited?
See we offered in Nov.
Not yet. Staff checked in on him this week.
Isaiah Evans is a name to monitor.
@BeddieKU23 said in 2023 Transfer Portal:
Returning another year would give him a shot to be a featured player
Don't say something mean don't say something mean don't say something mean.
@Jethro The short of it is that account is obsessed with KSU. Little brother behavior.
Also fwiw I would recommend not subscribing to the channel or liking the videos. Just bookmark the channel. Don't want it to blow up.
@Eric-san said in Triage Hawks vs Fightin Rodney Terrys Game Thread:
Didn't get to watch the game so I'm watching highlights and I can't stop watching that Gradey Dick juke, step back 3. Breaking ankles not once but twice. All made possible by his aggressive driving to the basket on previous possessions.
If you'd like to.
