@BShark

They also jump passing lanes, Morris has always been savvy in this regard. A lot of turnovers were just careless and out of character. One of them games I suppose. Turnovers were the leaky wheel last night. Usually its something else like post defense, FT shooting, we seem to have a bag of bad tricks sometimes

@Crimsonorblue22

But seriously.... I've always respected the OU fan base.

Is it because they don't take Basketball that serious anyway?

I would agree the OU bunch seem to be respectable and their coach is nothing but a class act.

It seems that the fan-bases like KSU & ISU that try and compete with us have to steep real low to do so. Oh KU's home court is so great, we better pep up ours to be the same. KSU chanting F KU at a non KU game is just classless crap. Are these people childs?

Hilton Magic trying so hard with 12,000 glow sticks to make the place something more than it is. Don't get me wrong ISU has a great home court when the team is good but when you expose the team as having flaws the fan-base cracks right with them. Truly sad what KU's success has spread across the conference

well said!

HUGE Win!

We were waiting for this team to step up and we got it. It wasn't pretty, we've perfected winning ugly but winning ugly is better than losing period!

Let's all pray Frank's knee is okay. It looked touch and go for parts of that 2nd half. Anyway he came up with not only clutch shots but he rebounded the ball like a man. The season depends on his health going forward. Hopefully we get word that this is minor.

Huge shout-outs to Lagerald Vick & Carlton Bragg for putting on their big boy pants last night. Where have y'all been the past month? Hustle plays and a huge 18 points off the bench. That's what we call stepping up.

Paging Josh Jackson.

Anyone got his cell-phone number? Tell him to wake up and bring the goods on the road. That's 3 straight awful Big-12 games on the road for him. We won't always get production from Vick & Bragg that can mask him fouling himself out of games. I love this kid but where is his head on the road. I expect better, we all should expect better. He had some nice passes when not fouling and his basket late was clutch. Turn the page young fella.

Landen Lucas.

You have perfected missing point blank shots but you have clearly become the steady force in the post we so desperately need. A solid 14-6 line is all we can possibly expect from you. Keep it up big fella.

A sad sad fan-base.

I'm sure there are plenty of Iowa St fans out there that have a level head but the 14 thousand plus in Hilton Tragic last night paints a sad sad picture for a fan-base that so desperately wants to compete with KU. Watching those fans run for the door with just under 2 minutes left was all you needed to know about these guys. For those that stayed, you actually made it interesting but in the end it didn't matter. Is there a fan-base in the Big-12 that has any class?

Now let's all get some rest for Saturday when our next clown comes to town. You know that one that's ridden the coattails of one victory his entire career.

@wissox said:

2nd overturned call. Even if they're right, it looks really bad. ESPN wants viewers to stay interested I guess.

Same ref who thinks he saw something

Weatherwax fanatics vs KU game thread • Jan 17, 2017 03:08 AM

Make sure u get video of him picking up his cash

Weatherwax fanatics vs KU game thread • Jan 17, 2017 03:08 AM

Weatherwax fanatics vs KU game thread • Jan 17, 2017 03:03 AM

Mason hurt

Weatherwax fanatics vs KU game thread • Jan 17, 2017 03:01 AM

@BShark said:

I would definitely put Josh on Burton though.

So he foul out?

Weatherwax fanatics vs KU game thread • Jan 17, 2017 03:00 AM

Mason I expect you to put this team on your back. Do it boy

Weatherwax fanatics vs KU game thread • Jan 17, 2017 02:58 AM

@stoptheflop said:

Burton is 6'5". Vick or Devonte should be able to shut him down.

We are definitely writing the book on how not to guard him

Weatherwax fanatics vs KU game thread • Jan 17, 2017 02:57 AM

Alright boys let's see what we got. We know they are going to make a run

Weatherwax fanatics vs KU game thread • Jan 17, 2017 02:56 AM

@BShark said:

@BeddieKU23

I don't think he is the level of PG that comes in as a FR to start for Duke.

I agree he can't shoot so k doesn't want that.

But honestly Texas had his spot set for 4 years. At Duke he might have been over recruited every cycle

Weatherwax fanatics vs KU game thread • Jan 17, 2017 02:54 AM

@BShark said:

@Crimsonorblue22

Well it was Duke or Texas. Duke passed.

I wonder if they are saying he wasn't good enough anyway lol

Weatherwax fanatics vs KU game thread • Jan 17, 2017 02:53 AM

@Crimsonorblue22 said:

Can Burton guard? I'd be going at him. He's pooped

We can't guard him. Actually we are not even trying

Weatherwax fanatics vs KU game thread • Jan 17, 2017 02:52 AM

@stoptheflop said:

Also up on TO's 11 to 6

Ughh not like this team. Morris been living in the passing lanes

Weatherwax fanatics vs KU game thread • Jan 17, 2017 02:51 AM

@wissox said:

@BeddieKU23 I counted 11.

Boy talk about quick with the stats

Weatherwax fanatics vs KU game thread • Jan 17, 2017 02:50 AM

@HawkChamp

Agreed they started this on lucas. Guys are wide open we should have had 50 easy

Weatherwax fanatics vs KU game thread • Jan 17, 2017 02:50 AM

@wissox said:

Vick 6 points, 5 points, 2 blocks, 3 assists. He's having a good game.

And 10 hustle plays!!!

Weatherwax fanatics vs KU game thread • Jan 17, 2017 02:49 AM

@Crimsonorblue22 said:

@kjayhawks how many to's did jj have?

About as many as he had fouls

Weatherwax fanatics vs KU game thread • Jan 17, 2017 02:48 AM

Forget we have the lead because we will need to win the first 8 minutes to get this win tonight

Weatherwax fanatics vs KU game thread • Jan 17, 2017 02:47 AM

Braggs defense has sucked but where would we be without his play so far everywhere else.

Same with vick they stepped up again for Josh Jackson's inability to bring his game on the road

Weatherwax fanatics vs KU game thread • Jan 17, 2017 02:41 AM

@BShark said:

@HawkChamp

Yep. Terrible shot I couldn't believe he took it.

Just ugly and rushed

Weatherwax fanatics vs KU game thread • Jan 17, 2017 02:41 AM

@stoptheflop said:

It's unusual that Josh is playing with 2 fouls.

Out of necessity the defense can't play switches without it

Weatherwax fanatics vs KU game thread • Jan 17, 2017 02:39 AM

Carlton bragg is just not good at defense there is no other way around it

Weatherwax fanatics vs KU game thread • Jan 17, 2017 02:33 AM

This is 9 point game that should be 18 and that's scary for us. No lead is safe here

Weatherwax fanatics vs KU game thread • Jan 17, 2017 02:33 AM

@HawkChamp

Best effort out of vick in conference play
