KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 04:33 AM

Really need a stop

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 04:25 AM

Great offense execution

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 04:21 AM

Wayne Selden that's the guy right there

@BeddieKU23 But so should Vandy? It's a wash.

They want it more underdog mentality

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 04:05 AM

@Bwag

Any time u play 3 games in 3 days it's going to wear on you no matter how you distribute minutes. We are playing tired besides that spurt

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 04:04 AM

@DinarHawk said:

@Bwag Ellis needs to play outside in.

He would still be shooting over length unless open. He needs to show up and find ways to get his shots instead of what the d is making him take

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 04:02 AM

@Bwag

Tired legs too.

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 04:01 AM

@wissoxfan83

They are bailing out on shots to get back on d which has taken away running.

Turnovers have killed us which wasn't a problem in the first 4 games

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 03:58 AM

@wissoxfan83

There length has changed our driving ability

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 03:57 AM

2 for 11 for our leaders yikes. That's usually the recipe for losing

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 03:55 AM

@tundrahok

Thanks. That's ugly.

Going to need a lot more wayne only vet who is shooting well

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 03:53 AM

Nothing short of a 180 after the half will win this game. Our shooting %has to be around 30 which won't win this game no matter how many shots vandy misses

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 03:51 AM

@RockkChalkk

Franks fault there

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 03:49 AM

I put the over on shots that missed the rim at 10

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 03:48 AM

And now there shots start falling..jeez

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 03:45 AM

@Bwag said:

@BeddieKU23 So what will Kevin Stalling's 1/2 time adjustments be?

To miss shots

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 03:45 AM

Defense has been good although some of our best has been them missing

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 03:44 AM

What an ugly half and down 2. I'll take a half time adjustment for 500 please

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 03:34 AM

@VailHawk

What was mick doing ther?

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 03:32 AM

Perry still hasn't found a pump fake he likes

Lucas still hasn't found a rim he feels like hitting

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 03:30 AM

When Selden makes shots it really pumps the team up its infectious

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 03:28 AM

Wow that game changed quickly

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 03:27 AM

Selden

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 03:24 AM

What's an 0 13 shooter do, he naturally makes everything

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 03:22 AM

Self better light a fire soon or this is going to become unwatchable

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 03:22 AM

Getting over with real quick

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 03:21 AM

Bout time

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 03:20 AM

What an ugly sequence

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 03:19 AM

Not even half the energy we had last night. It has to pick up fast

KU vs Vandy • Nov 26, 2015 03:18 AM

So early on it looks like we checked out after last night.. you can see it they are stiff out there

Diallo is Cleared! Now what? • Nov 26, 2015 12:02 AM

@Eric-san

It was self reported by drame. While he was in the process of becoming his guardian he gave him the benefits.

Diallo is Cleared! Now what? • Nov 25, 2015 09:25 PM

I'm excited to see his rebounding and blocking ability, he will change a lot on the back line.

I just hope he can limit turnovers, moving screens, and all the small things that bigs have to learn which he is obviously raw at.

I think this solidifys mickelson being the odd big out. Bragg will see a squeeze as well he's the 4th soon to be 5th big...

FREE DIALLO • Nov 25, 2015 09:19 PM

@Texas-Hawk-10

I tend to think the same especially when the lead invetigator paid Huggins extra for every win against ku. I don't doubt there is some behind the scenes stick it to KU Feelings. Just glad it's over and that this kid can finally help us

Diallo is Cleared! Now what? • Nov 25, 2015 09:15 PM

This is the greatest day!!!

FREE DIALLO • Nov 25, 2015 07:59 PM

@Texas-Hawk-10

I get your point but this kid if cleared should have never missed any games to begin with.

PERRY • Nov 25, 2015 07:53 PM

@KUSTEVE

This game was reminiscent of how he was playing before the knee injury last year. His outside shot has looked very good which makes him very hard to guard from out there.

FREE DIALLO • Nov 25, 2015 04:58 PM

I have to ask everyone, knowing what we know about the situation and how badly the NCAA has messed up ( and messed up is keeping it PG).

Will we tolerate anything less than him being able to play?

KU has literally shoved whatever investigation they did do back at them.

And proven that they don't have a clue what they are doing here.

If the ruling is still negative, what are the next steps? This issue really has brought up and exposed a flawed system.

It makes you wonder how many other kids have been hurt by this very same investigative methods.

Diallo can't get back those 4 games so far, can't get back tonight's game either. How do you make it right? Just making him eligible doesn't solve the issue, doesn't even come close to the bigger picture that needs to happen. No other kid deserves this in the future, I don't think any issue regarding the NCAA has ever angered me this much. And I know I'm not alone.

PERRY • Nov 25, 2015 04:50 PM

@drgnslayr

Correct, but I did get his point about the importance of program players like Perry and the importance they can have on a team which was his main point about Perry or Karl. I still think Perry needs to take us far into the tournament and be the key guy, the leader we need before I start splitting hairs over who's more important. Because otherwise rolling the dice with OAD's can be more important than relying on a 4 year player, its been proven it can work.

PERRY • Nov 25, 2015 04:41 PM

@wrwlumpy

The loss won't feel so bad if we take care of business tonight. Vandy is a very good team, just as deep as we are. I want to see the positive continue for more than 1 game.

@justanotherfan

that's not going to change and while Bragg looks great in the time out there he's not changing the game enough to play over the veterans.

PERRY • Nov 25, 2015 04:14 PM

What is helping Perry the most so far is he is noticeably more athletic. He gets up higher on his shot and that has helped close to the basket. Plus he's just a verteran and he knows how to get buckets.

Fraschilla made an interesting point last night. He said would you rather have Karl Towns for 1 year or Perry Ellis for 4..Let's see what Perry can do this year before truly knowing that kind of answer

U-C-L-A • Nov 25, 2015 03:55 AM

@Crimsonorblue22

You would have made a bundle at half!

THE GAMBLER'S GUIDE TO TONIGHT'S GAME • Nov 25, 2015 03:45 AM

Can I take back that spread bogus talk wowww

U-C-L-A • Nov 25, 2015 03:44 AM

Wow what a performance. I didn't expect this but it's great to see these guys confident. My predictions are Thankfully very wrong.

THE GAMBLER'S GUIDE TO TONIGHT'S GAME • Nov 25, 2015 01:45 AM

I'm not trying to be negative but that spread is bogus. I see this as a one or 2 possession game and I'm just praying we come out on top. UCLA is much better than their loss to Monmouth, they have the talent to be in the NCAA tourney. They are big down low big enough to give our relentless attack to the rim problems. Hopefully our vets have good games

Svi has shown he can be just as good of a shooter as Greene. The issue is neither does anything else on either end of the floor, it's their single attribute

U-C-L-A • Nov 24, 2015 04:38 PM

Vick will see 2 minutes lucky in this game. What makes you think our 5th perimeter player is going to play?

Because of UCLA'S Size we will see more Lucas than fans will be able to handle. Hunter is clearly the odd man out in games against better so unless we are in serious foul trouble don't expect him to see more than 5 minutes. Bragg will see his customary 10 minutes or so, you know not enough to make an impact at either end.

The minutes spread will be no different than last week. If graham or mason can disrupt Alford we should pull out a close game. This will not be a blowout by any means, we will play down to them.

Making shots whether 3's and FT's will be key

Crystal Ball • Nov 24, 2015 02:21 PM

@SoftballDad201

Exactly, the only credible info with Allen is that he took visits and won't sign until spring. kentucky is out so it's the 4 plus maybe another school that tries to get involved late seems how he doesn't have to official to Texas being in his home town. It's still a Texas battle for him either Houston or the home school.

U-C-L-A • Nov 24, 2015 02:16 PM

We have no answer for Welsh but I doubt he will be the reason We would lose. It's important to get Parker in foul trouble as he is their double double machine.

Alford is going to require someone's best defensive night, if he's making shots from outside this will be a very close game. The key will be forcing him into bad shots, not wide open shots. UCLA has a high ceiling and they could definetly best us, we are no world beaters. It will take an effort I'm not sure we are ready for, maybe we are after going through the MSU debacle.

Obviously the key to winning on our end will be to make shots, especially perimeter. Nothing else matters, we make shots we win

shocking win for Wake Forest. Good for Manning, his freshman guard stepped up huge with those 2 layups..
