Kaluma missed both throws after hitting all those 3's?
Not that you'd know it today, but he is a 25% three point shooter!

Great adjustments by Bill. Also very impressed with Jalen! He has grown as a man here at KU. Old Jalen would have been pouting with his shot not falling and having to deal with a very athletic opposing big in Kaluma. He never stopped fighting, and rebounded like a man.
Survive and advance.
@DanR said in KU vs Creighton Barrels:
They were 8/12 (67%) before missing the last three attempts.
Yeah, things will even out a bit. I feel like if things normalize KU can win going away. Getting a lot of great looks.
@StLJhawk said in KU vs Creighton Barrels:
Should be lots of adjustments by self, and those heave em up 3s by them are going to miss more with tired legs, ochai will wake up, remy will continue to not want to play his last game, so yea feeling good about the second half.
Put Hawkins into the blender whenever possible. He can't defend at this level.
They are shooting 23% from 2 and 53% from 3 lol
Like I said this Creighton team is dangerous for one game. Guys stepping up, shooting out of their minds. Not sustainable long term but could get them a win this game.
March Remy!
This Creighton team will be dangerous for exactly one game post injury. They will be galvanized and guys will step up. Have to take that punch and survive it.
Had to clean up before the game started.
The cretins must be defeated. We good.
Pretty thrilled we didn't draw UNC.

The Big 12 is now - - 5-0 in the 1st round - - -TCu is the lone one left to play. Go Frogs let's make this a clean Sweep
I am very surprised.
Hunter is a special player. Carrying.
@tis4tim said in NCAA Day 2 of The Greatest Tournament in Sports:
Iowa St. gonna choke this one away. All they do is shoot threes and miss. Down to a one point lead. 2 min left.
1 point in over 5 minutes. Big yikes.
@Crimsonorblue22 said in NCAA Day 2 of The Greatest Tournament in Sports:
@BShark I haven't seen him do anything
He would thrive under Self.
@Crimsonorblue22 said in NCAA Day 2 of The Greatest Tournament in Sports:
Would've been fun to see them match up
Would have been nice to see Bill acquire Kofi for this season lol.
Both are equally massive.
@Crimsonorblue22 said in NCAA Day 2 of The Greatest Tournament in Sports:
@BShark he could've gone before Bruce right?
They didn't offer. OMEGALUL.
Would have been his first D1 HC job in all fairness. That was before his stint at SFA.
@Crimsonorblue22 said in NCAA Day 2 of The Greatest Tournament in Sports:
@BShark is kofi bigger than Doke? Do u really think he'd prefer ksu?
Rumblings are afoot! Not a done deal yet but possible. Illinois fans will lose it if it comes to pass but it is a special case, Brad loves KSU like we love KU.
Brad is mailing it in before taking the KSU job
@justanotherfan I 100% want them on the KU bench if they are serious about it.
@Gorilla72 thank you
@Crimsonorblue22 said in 2022 Transfer Portal Thread:
@BShark found it. Written in 2017. Wonder what they all think now?
There was one from this season. About how mean old Bob made him cry every night or something like that. I need to find it though, make sure I'm remembering it correctly.
@Crimsonorblue22 said in Texas Southern Game Thread:
@Gorilla72 that's what I'm doing! I've been sick since last sat. Running a temp, head full of knowledge🙄 then wed pm I was up all pm coughing and wheezing feeling like I could break a rib. I finally went to my pulmonologist. I had tested at home neg for covid. He gave me my usual 2 steroid shots and had me do an influenza test. Called me back and I shockingly was +.
Oh no :(
Stay with us plz.
@Gorilla72 said in 2022 Transfer Portal Thread:
@BShark - do you have a link or the writer’s name?
Believe it was on the Athletic so you'd need to be subscribed. I'm trying to find it but this would be the writer: https://theathletic.com/author/kyle-tucker/ ↗

Ouch for Huggins
Isiah Cottrell & Jalen Bridges are transferring. That roster is a sad state of affairs right now
Portal up to 450
Huggy just won’t survive in the current environment imo. He’s hard to play for and he really doesn’t even really try to recruit anymore. He needs to hang it up
Did you see the article a Kentucky writer put out? Caveat that it's biased towards UK (duh) and that Oscar is getting more money at UK but holy moly it's a really bad look for Huggins. Like super bad.
@Kcmatt7 said in Future KU Assistant Coaches Marcus and Markieff Morris:
@tis4tim they tweeted about wanting to coach after they retire last night
This ^
Bill will help get them started even if it isn't on the KU staff tbh.
Spesha :trade_mark:
Assistant coaches: Case, Morris Twins
Director of Basketball Operations Tyshawn Taylor
Special Assistant to the head coach Jalen Coleman-Lands
Yes please.
Watched it this morning (sorry @Crimsonorblue22 ) the last play I saw live was the TX Southern 3 to cut it to 17-10.
Wow how about the last 9 minutes of the first half lol. The game was over with 13 to go. Nice to get bench guys some time should be well rested for Creighton.
of course it's Juan lmao
@jayballer67 Bill was SCREAMING at him to shoot.
@tis4tim said in Texas Southern Game Thread:
Doesn’t TS have one of the worst defenses in D-1?
Other way around. Defense is good for their level, offense is near the bottom of the nation.
Bill is fuming.
@Crimsonorblue22 said in Texas Southern Game Thread:
@RockChalkinTexas self won't let them not take them serious! Just hit some shots and run! Rebound and have fun! Play D! Teamwork! Family!
I'm sure the team heard about what happened to UK.
@BeddieKU23 said in Texas Southern Game Thread:
So this is what 1040pm eastern time feels like🤣🤣
I've thought about moving to Colorado before, lol.
Just win baby.
Kentucky's last tournament win was March 29th 2019.
@BeddieKU23 said in KU Bracket Reveal Thread:
Wow huge and 1
St Peters would not have got that call.
I won't be awake for this, but we good.
The crazy thing is St Peters was not very well coached. Their "offense" frequently gave me palpitations. Talent carried.
@Bosthawk said in One of the Wildest Turnarounds, Saint Peter's:
Hello…
St. Peter’s just beat the “superior athletes “ of Kensookee!!
St Peters has some strong athletes tbh
UK refs big time in this one, for those tuning in late. There was one play where a kid for St Peters got hammered on a make, hurt to where he couldn't get back on D. No call.
As mentioned in the bumped thread, Saint Peters has some real dudes. Adidas school btw...
