Daejon Davis has asked for his release.

So Now That The Season Is Over • Mar 26, 2017 02:11 AM

Let's talk about next year!

Fox destroyed him.

@Texas-Hawk-10

7 years. Not a fan of this move for them. It might work out, he isn't a terrible coach but 7 years is a lot to lock in for and I think Mack would have been better. I wish them nothing but the best though, their fans have been pleasant to interact with from my experience.

@dylans

Okie Lite's problem is they are sub 150 defense.

@Lulufulu

Oh yeah, the game was basically called at 4 minutes to go. Even with 8 minutes to go Painter was broken lol.

It is true. It was in jest but still...

@KUSTEVE

Would be fantastic. I like KU's chances against any opponent. I've turned. I'm a SUNSHINE PUMPER.

@wissox

Provided the Mack to IU thing being a done deal is accurate I think that's a great hire for them.

Let the firings begin • Mar 24, 2017 08:30 PM

Okie Lite has went the cheap route and hired Mike Boynton. Oil money must be tight.

Kennard made a dork of himself as well. But it's Duke sooooo

BIFM - 68
DTae - 60
Josh - 55
Svisus - 35
Lando - 25
Vick - 22
Coleby - 7
The Shell of Carlton - 6
TBONE - 5
MITCHEM ICE BLAST - 5

So we have an outside shot for Bragg to be outscored by Mitch or Tyler.

Somebody has a grudge! Does this have to do with your Texans fandom? :thought_balloon:

@JayHawkFanToo I hope we beat Oregon, and UCLA makes it to the FF.

Pac 12 champs let's go get it!

Okay This Is Funny • Mar 24, 2017 06:43 PM

It's such a no brainer at this point. Unless you are papa Ball...

@JayHawkFanToo

While true you could technically comp just about any player not at a basketball factory like Oak Hill that way. When there is a clear cut best player (usually the case with a sought after recruit) then they are going to have to ball a loooot. That's why stats really do not mean much and it's about evaluating skills and how you think they will translate which is an inexact science.

Okay This Is Funny • Mar 24, 2017 06:38 PM

Josh Jackson is a cheetah and a pterodactyl.

Purdue crushed ↗

It's cutting off the link, just highlight and copy the entire thing.

Edit 2: Link appears to be working right now.

Oregon Matchups • Mar 24, 2017 06:22 PM

@BigBad

WSU was a 1 seed, Kentucky an 8 or 9 (don't remember) when they played closer to Lexington. I believe in ST Louis.

@drgnslayr

Interesting note. Other than UCLA, I believe Baylor is the closest location to Phoenix followed by KU, amazingly enough closer than Oregon and Gonzaga.

I would think that being PAC 12 country, UCLA or Oregon would have the home crowd; without them it would be fairly neutral crowd. Phoenix is an easy flight from KC and most Southwest flights to the West Coas stop either in Phoenix or Salt Lake.

I'm really glad Arizona is out.

Oregon Matchups • Mar 24, 2017 05:26 PM

Line started at KU -6.5

Kerem Kanter (Enes's little bro) is grad transferring from Green Bay.

Recruiting Master Thread Part Deux • Mar 24, 2017 04:50 PM

@BeddieKU23

Yeah that's the big issue, he is basically a 2018 recruit that can only play one year.

Recruiting Master Thread Part Deux • Mar 24, 2017 04:42 PM

I wonder if KU will take a look at Shayok. I think he is really good. Numbers are deceiving because of UVA derpball.

Let the firings begin • Mar 24, 2017 04:31 PM

ISU has extended Prohm through 2022.

Recruiting Master Thread Part Deux • Mar 24, 2017 04:30 PM

For @jayballer54 @Crimsonorblue22 and everyone else that was wanting to scroll less. :grinning:

We have nothing on Cyfans sad to say. They have an 83 page thread about Wigginton, heh.

437th reason to dislike Marsha • Mar 24, 2017 04:24 PM

@DCHawker

Hard to say. Athletically they are right there with KU. More athletic in the post, Monk and Jackson is a wash. Mason and Graham combined maybe a hair behind Briscoe and Fox athletically but obviously Mason and Graham are MUCH better shooters I mean that's a joke to even compare.

I think whether it's UNC, UCLA or UK then KU is in for a tough game. KU could lose to any of them. UK is probably the most dangerous if they shoot well, but they haven't shown that they can consistently. I'd probably take UNC if I absolutely had to pick just because of how well Self has done against Roy.

437th reason to dislike Marsha • Mar 24, 2017 04:17 PM

@DCHawker

UK is 170th in 3pt% and 49th in 2pt%

Oregon Matchups • Mar 24, 2017 02:57 PM

@BeddieKU23

Doubling Lucas was quite odd.

437th reason to dislike Marsha • Mar 24, 2017 02:54 PM

Looking good with that AZ natty pick. Though I refuse to even look at my bracket rn.

Oregon Matchups • Mar 24, 2017 02:38 PM

Honestly I hope the refs don't decide the game. They very easily could though.

Next recruit up • Mar 24, 2017 02:17 PM

@BeddieKU23

Yeah he is good. He'd get minutes for KU next year and it's always good to have high bbiq players.

Some really weird scorching hot take posts in a Phog thread about him. Someone said they remind him of Bragg which just makes absolutely zero sense to me.

Reverse 360 • Mar 24, 2017 02:03 PM

Swanigan poked the bear with his trash talk. It wasn't just Vick either. KU went up to about 13 (on a 10 pt scale) in that 2nd half.

I'm Sure This Will Get Brought Up A Lot • Mar 24, 2017 01:53 PM

@Blown

Gonna shoot them right out of their zone I hope.

Next recruit up • Mar 24, 2017 01:51 PM

@BeddieKU23

Yeah the Shayok one is very odd to me. The other two I get.

Definitely has to be something with Waters. The staff at this point seems not panicked about getting a PG.

I'm Sure This Will Get Brought Up A Lot • Mar 24, 2017 05:12 AM

But man. One of Xavier, Gonzaga, Baylor, South Carolina, Wisconsin and Florida will be in the title game. Other side right now is KU, Oregon, UNC, Butler, UCLA, UK.

Crazy.

!sad.jpg ↗

Captionable...

So Gonzaga or Xavier in the FF. This is just now sinking in. Wow.

Me too kiddo.

Arizona fans taking this loss hard.

Chris Mack pantsed the Orca like Self does Roy. It was filthy. They will be cleaning up Orca bits off the floor for days.

@kjayhawks

Nevada or UNLV most likely.

@KirkIsMyHinrich

I mean my word. Arizona has multiple NBA players. Xavier has Bluiett and a box of rocks.

!xavier.jpg ↗

Omg the sea is parting for KU.

Chris Mack >>>>>>>> Sean Miller no matter how this ends.

@KirkIsMyHinrich

I need oxygen.

Tweet from ESPN: KU's Devonte Graham is the first player to hit at least four 3s in four straight NCAA tourney games since ... a young guy named Steph.

Re point three: Not only does Josh have much more desire and want to than Wiggs (something you can't teach and while I love Wiggs, this is just very apparent) he is also a smarter basketball player. The term student of the game comes to mind.

Re point 4 + 5 together: The conference this year was pretty much three deep at the top. Sorry ISU you don't count despite backing into a tie for 2nd. The tournament has bore this out and I hope Baylor wins tomorrow.

Re point 6: The intensity has been ramped up for sure. More + longer stoppages helps.

@KirkIsMyHinrich

Yeah talk about a couple of mammoths.

@KirkIsMyHinrich

KU vs Zona would be a whale of a game.
