@KirkIsMyHinrich He just impacts winning as long as he gets back up to his normal offensive output we will be fine. Especially if we can get MJ Rice involved too.

I like how McCullar is playing today
Yeah like I said he is better than he has shown so far. Currently taking over.
Stop throwing lobs that are not there seriously.
We are going to need Juan/Bob to take and make more floaters. I think both are capable but you have to prove you can do it to open up the lob.
5/18 from 2 9/14 from 3 very normal game.
I am absolutely devastated to report that Gradey set the sliders all the way to the right today.
@jayballer67 Thamel is a respected national reporter that works for ESPN fwiw
Lance told Nebraska no per Swain lolololololol
@FarmerJayhawk said in Anyone concerned about losing Leipold to Nebraska?:
I'm like 95% sure it won't be Leipold. Hearing a lot about Bronco Mendenhall, which wouldn't be flashy but he can really coach.
Hawks just extended Lance and gave him a raise let's go!
Watching world cup instead, hopefully KU plays better than the last time out.

Kentucky is 3-2, hilarious.
Chaotic season so far, gotta be happy with 4-0 for KU considering. Other decent teams are losing crazy games.
The meltdown happening right now is fun to watch. They all think Cal gave up after 2015
I was seriously just talking about this on twitter. 2015 broke him or something. 0 final fours, a loss to Bruce Weber in the tournament, a 9 win season etc
Kentucky is 3-2, hilarious.

I will say this about trusting Bill...
We all wanted the Mosley kid who Bill passed on and he ended up at Missouri. He does not start and is averaging 6 points a game....
@kuballin10 said in "Bill Self... needed on Aisle 7, please!:
@BShark Kevin can’t shoot that’s the problem. He’s been plenty wide open and at the elbow just can’t shoot.
His shooting at tech after the injury might truly be who he is.
@FarmerJayhawk - did we ever go after Shannon at IL? He would have been absolutely money with Juan distributing to him, Wilson and Gradey. Shannon averaging 23/game.
That’s where I think Bill falls short he takes a defensive guy like Kevin when Shannon would have been a stud. Could have taught him to improve on D. Can’t make Kevin a better shooter overnight
Even last year he was better than this. His numbers are completely terrible.
Shannon was not an option otherwise I imagine Bill would have been interested but Farmer would know more than me there.
Kevin will benefit from when the offense gains more structure. He is way better than he has shown so far.
Hell yeah.
@dylans amen it was brutal tonight.
@kuballin10 said in Southern Utah Game Thread:
@BShark kinda a problem when playing basketball
Jalen, Kev and Gradey
Juan at least stepping up
This is awful not even the same team
Thank god Bill is coming back.
This thread is just free money, I'll try not to abuse my powers with it.
The problem is we only have 3 players that even look at the rim when they have the ball.
@DCHawker said in Southern Utah Game Thread:
Just 4 points from bench and zero from McCullar....
By far Kevin's worst game. Unforced turnovers as well.
Time to fire this up again I fear.
Duke got their head out of their ass in the 2nd half tonight hopefully we can do the same.
@jayballer67 said in Southern Utah Game Thread:
we got to quit turning the dm ball over. you would think it would be the other way around, but we have 10 turnovers and they have 5
Agree. If the Hawks cut the UNFORCED turnovers they roll. Playing solid otherwise.
@DCHawker said in Southern Utah Game Thread:
Most disturbing trend is not getting to the FT line, esp. at home. And, not making 'em when they do.
This team is actually horrible at drawing fouls it's interesting. Might change when Self gets back but part of it is the guys we have.
@BeddieKU23 said in Southern Utah Game Thread:
Lol norm
He was so bad with these rotations. Need Bill back badly.
There is a reason Norm is back at KU as an assistant lmao
Get Gradey back in
@BeddieKU23 said in Southern Utah Game Thread:
@BShark said in Southern Utah Game Thread:
Norm is on some crazy line-ups so far
Following bills script
Not sure even he would be this wild
Norm is on some crazy line-ups so far
When we don't turn it over we are scoring it pretty well at least...
Not Kevin's best game...
KJ is our best big.
Still believe this is the worst team we have played yet, they are just on fire from three. Not sure what we do when KJ needs a rest.
Dude threw his legs out to get that, ridiculous
@DanR said in Southern Utah Game Thread:
quite the defensive stretch there
Definitely why KU is down right now. Gotta get KJ back in.
Missing Bill's coaching jesus
Hilarious slops game
@KirkIsMyHinrich said in Southern Utah Game Thread:
Two missed layups yuck
It happens, great looks.
ESPN+ out for anyone else?
@jayballer67 said in Southern Utah Game Thread:
- -Averaging 103.8 per game - -score over 100 points twice
Worth noting this is against 2 D3 schools and the California equivalent of Kansas Wesleyan or Bethany. Their 1 game against a D1 school was an 8 point loss to New Mexico where they scored 81.
@tundrahok said in Southern Utah Game Thread:
@BShark That's a bummer. Has anybody seen any details about his injury? Does anybody wear a mask any more when they have a broken nose?
Not sure. It was pretty bad, should have been a flagrant.

Zach is OUT tonight.
Transfer portal?
I won't be surprised but I haven't heard anything yet.
Zach is OUT tonight.
@BeddieKU23 said in Southern Utah Game Thread:
Interested to see our activity level after Duke.
Hopefully MJ is available
Should be fine given our veteran leadership.
MJ should be good to go.
Located in beautiful Cedar City.
They lost their first game against New Mexico then played three straight non-D1 opponents to hilarious effect.
They play fast and take a ton of threes.
We good.
Daily prayer that I never have to visit Missouri again.
@approxinfinity said in Dook Game Thread:
After rewatching that game i just am in awe of Jalen and Dajuans composure. Yes Grady had a brilliant sequence and looked like a senior during that stretch, but how lucky are we to have two returning champions who believe :hundred_points: in our potential this year and appear ready to lead us there? These guys arent the left overs from a championship run. These guys are made men. HARD warriors!
Championship DNA
@kuballin10 said in 2022-23 stats-PER, Kenpom etc:
Juan looks hesitant when shooting the three he needs to shoot it with confidence like he practiced (or should have been) them all season.
No clue what he did but chucking 1000 threes a day and floaters should have been the requirement
Gradey needs more shots
Kj needs to just drive hard right every time. He’s so quick and built you can’t stop him. He did this one for a little one handed shot in the lane in the 2nd half and I about fell out of my chair. If he can do that we are legit modern ball
If KJ somehow becomes a threat to score we will be very dangerous.
