He can't though. When he seals off his guy and there isn't help at the rim that's when Lucas can score. I feel like he tried to do too much at times, he just needs to play within himself and he will be fine. Usually he is pretty good about that.

As long as Landen doesn't try to score with his back to the basket or take long jump shots he doesn't really hurt the team.

Worse case scenario : Coleman goes to 'Cuse. Quade goes to Kentucky. Opening up the Duke pressure on Duval.
One comment I found more than a little concerning was from M. Jacobs mom (our Jr. signing). She said (paraphrasing) Now that Kansas has offered you, you should see if you can get an offer from Kentucky or Duke.
Kansas (UNC too)isn't on the same level as Duke and Kentucky in many people perceptions right now. Obviously not mine and I'd like to know how many stinking championships it takes to change that view? 2 more National championships???
Coleman doesn't have a Cuse offer. They are not recruiting him.
Yeah she was saying that before he committed. He is all in with KU. He is a twitter cheerleader on the level of Embiid and Mitch.
@dylans said:
@Statmachine Hope you're right! Anything on Twitter/Facebook etc. that would lead you to believe Duval will commit to KU? Soon?
Spring.

Looking at a highlight reel, he reminds me a little of the Morrii. Good shooter, not particularly explosive, kinda slow, good thick frame. Self will need to work on defense and drive.
He could definitely end up being Marcus Morris good. Unfortunately I think KU will only have him for one year.
That's tough. Thoughts and prayers.
So Baylor only beat FGCU by 9. That said, let's talk about the SEC.
Half of the SEC basketball teams have lost at least once already. Something no other power-five league can say.
Creighton seems salty http://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/boxscore?gameId=400919643 ↗

It's all coming up Milhouse re: Trae Young.
Unrelated to KU: Purdue needed a 20-0 run to beat Georgia State by 8. 64-56. Could be worse!
He mentioned they aren't really a team yet as well, which is pretty apparent.
Info not out there yet that I can see. I will bump this thread if something comes out.
He did like Carlton's performance though.
Self has been on point in the presser.
"I didn't think we played very tough. I didn't think we played very fast. We looked slow defensively."
Didn't think the young big men were ready to play at all. Noticed it earlier in the day.
"Brain told our bodies we were tired."

Nice to know we can win when shots aren't falling. Be nice when they go in.
86 pts being that cold from outside is pretty nice.
Prediction: Siena will win some games in their conference with Wright and Ogunyemi getting buckets.
@BeddieKU23 said:
i don't think there is a player in America that can stop Jackson, only himself
Are the refs calling suspect charges a player?
@KUSTEVE said:
@BShark I still can't believe you did that. Oh ye of little faith...lol.
I'm a bit of a downer at times.
@BeddieKU23 said:
yes hes got to stop fouling though. he gets to play 30+ minutes and he's going to really punish teams
Yeah 30+ mpg of Josh is ideal.
Vick with 12 pts and 8 boards pretty nice line.
Josh did whatever he wanted tonight, pretty good sign.
@Bwag said:
Are we just out athleting teams this year (as we go forward)?
Need to see more games to find out.
Tbf, this team is very athletic except Landen.
More like Tyler Nowitzski
TYLER SELF THE GOD
Coleby walk-on status confirmed
Tyler Self time boiz
@HawkChamp said:
Why can't we play with this focus all the time? The team from the last four minutes is a final four team
This game was kind of like a cat playing with a mouse iyam.
@Bwag said:
@BShark was a grab while he was on floor OR are we in bonus.
Must have Calle out of bounds?
They said it was a foul and KU is in the bonus. That's why @BeddieKU23 and myself are baffled
First foul on Bragg? I'll be...
@BeddieKU23 said:
so someone explain how Bragg wasn't shooting FT's after they called a foul?
No damn idea man
Lol I love Graham
CARLTON FIGHTIN
@BeddieKU23 said:
well if josh didn't foul so much we may have flexibility in subs but
I don't really trust line-ups without Frank on offense at this pt
@HawkChamp said:
Why can't we play with this type of effort all the time?
They see Siena on the front of the jersey
Devontae Graham shooting percentages
3pt shot: 0%
Just inside the line: 99%
r u kidding me with that shot?
@stoptheflop said:
Josh looks very natural with his offense. He is going to score some points for us this year.
As long as it's not a jump shot, Josh is money
@HawkChamp said:
Thing about it we are learning to win the hard way without making any outside shots
Bill is secretly happy.
Josh out there doing Josh things
@Bwag said:
@stoptheflop I'm not convinced.
I don't see a coach/core player meeting happening this year that gives him a superhuman confidence level. Hope I'm wrong.
What's the term: "Reversion to the mean"?
People were pretty down on last year's team after the Okie Lite loss
@BeddieKU23 said:
like I said yesterday this is a letdown game
Definitely. I was projecting only a 12-15 pt win
Doke smash
@HawkChamp said:
@BeddieKU23 Bill probably would think that is the easy way to defend it
Bill is such a rascal. Self-imposed challenges are fun!
