@BeddieKU23

I think the KSU loss was mildly worse for them.

@BeddieKU23

What's wrong with Baylor? They fell off a cliff after getting to #1/2 ranking.

Day 2 Tournament Thread • Mar 17, 2017 04:48 PM

Slow start for Baylor.

Day 2 Tournament Thread • Mar 17, 2017 04:35 PM

Or just missing shots perhaps.

@BeddieKU23

I think he is well suited to a mid-major and that's not a dig at him.

Nice article about our bama transfers • Mar 17, 2017 04:10 PM

@Kcmatt7

Yep! Probably the worst QB situation in major CFB last year...

I knew I was forgetting one. Crean has a GREAT eye for talent.

So day 2 of Christmas/Super Bowl/ etc has arrived, and KU plays even better!

Much better!

OG's 247 profile, hilarious!

@BeddieKU23

Interesting to think where Trey Burke or OG Anunoby would have ended up without the keen eye of Belein and Crean.

@BeddieKU23

Tarik Black graduated in three years right? So it is possible.

And yeah, looks like a big whiff on the recruiting services, known to happen from time to time. Appeared to be in the 300 range for rankings.

Poor kSU, their play-in game doesn't count lol.

@BeddieKU23

These days, some bigger program will try to get him for the final year via grad transfer...

Anyone Else • Mar 17, 2017 03:55 PM

@ParisHawk

Correct.

Anyone Else • Mar 17, 2017 03:51 PM

Hope the Big 12 continues their good tournament performance so far? Pretty sick of the Big12 sucks narrative.

Imo today

Easy win: KU
Should win: Baylor
Coin flip: Okie Lite
Probably losing: KSU

3-1 would be fantastic, 2-2 probably more realistic, 1-3 fits El Poyo's narrative.

@HighEliteMajor

It doesn't have to do with his height, but you are right, it's probably best if we both drop it. I think he's a good coach and I'll just leave it at that now.

@Crimsonorblue22 said:

did you see his fit in Canada! He is insane!🤡

He totally lost it, over an exhibition game. That was horrifying.

@jaybate-1.0

Marshall hasn't exactly been landing great talent at WSU. He does a fantastic job with the lower ranked players he gets.

@Texas-Hawk-10

I'm just saying it's possible. I don't disagree, I think Marshall would be crazy to turn down Indiana, or even NC State for that matter.

I don't think all coaches that beat KU are dicks or anything even. Prohm seems like a nice guy, Jamie Dixon seems alright etc...

Edit: I should add, Crean and Bruce are weeeeeeeeiiiiiiiird.

@HighEliteMajor

He's just a dick. Have you heard him speak much? As I said it might have been a bit harsh. Maybe more correct to call him a rude person with small man syndrome. Some people are just assholes, and hey that's his right.

Yeah it's a one-bid bottom type conference.

That might be a bit harsh, but I have seen him in person.

@HighEliteMajor

He's a great coach, but people (maybe rightfully) gravitate to the fact that he is a shit human being.

@Texas-Hawk-10

While it's obvious that P5 teams are much better positioned, Butler was a possession away and WSU had a real chance too.

Josh Suspended For 1 Game • Mar 17, 2017 01:55 PM

The whole thing just smells of BS.

Josh Suspended For 1 Game • Mar 17, 2017 01:55 PM

Oh and worth mentioning, the cops found tail light pieces by her car after she had left/moved. Soooo it's quite possible that she did it herself to cover herself a bit.

Josh Suspended For 1 Game • Mar 17, 2017 01:51 PM

This about sums it up

Kid is really good friends with Clay Young still. KU should try to get them in for a game at AFH for this kid if at all possible.

UC Davis has a Kansas kid on their team. Lansing boy Siler Schneider.

http://cjonline.com/sports/hawkzone/2017-03-16/ex-lansing-star-siler-schneider-hopes-stun-childhood-team-ku-basketball ↗

I wonder if KU takes a look if Davis decides to transfer. I remember KU kept tabs on him but never offered originally. Juwan Morgan as well actually. Either one would be fine to sit a year and then be in their 4th year removed from HS ball to help fill what could be a thin KU front court. No idea if either wants to transfer, just random speculation on my part.

ISU is going to kill Purdue. @KirkIsMyHinrich doesn't know basketball very well. :kissing_heart:

Looks like ISU will advance, Nevada can't buy a stop. Burton is killing them

Burton is a rascal. Nevada is pretty terrible on D though.

Bronson Koenig makes 8 three pointers bailing out Badgers. Nova next.

Best of luck.

Bucknell's center is good, he'd probably start for us.

@BeddieKU23

Having nightmares of when we ran 2 bigs and had opposing teams pack the paint in the tourney. Essentially what SDSU is doing.

Day 1 Tournament Day Thread • Mar 16, 2017 06:32 PM

According to CBS UNC won the title back in 2008. Guess we better take down the banner.

Day 1 Tournament Day Thread • Mar 16, 2017 06:24 PM

I believe KU briefly recruited Gonzaga's mountain man center.

I don't think even Self has had a hofer. Maybe Embiid has the potential if he stays healthy.
