The evolution of Bobby needs to include actually doing something with a ball screen

Surprised we are +1 on boards

David Castillo spoke about his visit. Interesting stuff.

David, I have so many questions for you but I don't need to be a rocket scientist to tell you the only choice you have left to make. We'll find out what kind of player he wants to be when he makes it.

"The visit was great," Castillo said. "It was great to see the game, the winning program, and their tradition at Kansas. They told me want me to come in, work hard, and be a high character guy who can be their point guard and score the ball. That is a lot of responsibility coming in from a guy like Bill Self. To hear him say those things was cool."

"Castillo says he has not thought about scheduling more official visits. He is unsure of when he plans to announce a list cut or a decision but says he will announce when the time feels right.

"I want to play for a coach who believes in my talents, strengths, and what I can do," Castillo said on his college decision. "I am going to come in and work hard. I am a competitor who likes to compete. I hate losing so I want to play for family-oriented program where the coach believes in my ability."

If you hate Losing, you only got one choice to avoid that.

@Gorilla72

Thanks, saw the request and figured this was in my wheelhouse. While it took a lot of time to get the last 5 years it was actually kind of cool reliving the games and these stats are so crazy. Some of them were hard to believe

RANT INCOMING

Now that Saturday is over and we have to turn the page so quickly I put all my rage on ESPN today.

They knew scheduling Baylor at home in mid-February on a Saturday would have some significance. Two best teams in the conference for a while now. Easy TV ratings.

They knew TCU was going to be good returning their entire team. That's why they got the Big Monday slot.

I believe they call this a "scheduled loss".

Hopefully the momentum this team is riding is enough.

@Kcmatt7

Yeah I have no idea what our kryptonite is either.

I want to say Athletic guards that can create 1 vs 1 & facing good rebounding teams.

I think we've seen we can negate an inside size advantage now with the presence of Udeh. We also have had success limiting guys like Jackon-Davis etc as well.

At the end of the day I think this team sinks and swims with Dejuan Harris's offense and defense. He's a total game changer when aggressive on both ends.

Personally, I've never disliked a coach more in any sport. Perhaps he was/is different behind the scenes, who knows but I have my doubts. I'm not watching that 30 for 30.

K reminds me of Belichek in that they lack the personable character to connect with. Some aren't built like that, and K is one of those people.

UPDATE- BAYLOR WIN

Points-

Jalen is now in 33rd place passing Jo Jo White. Tonight he can pass Walter Wesley for 32nd place with 14 points.

Right now, Kenpom's 12th ranked team in the Self era. The teams closest to that all won the Big-12. Tourney- 2nd round, Sweet 16, Final Four appearances.

Definitely on an upswing. Feels like earlier on this team was closer to the worst teams of the Self era.

TBH their numbers are still a bit behind where I think this team is. The last 4 games have shown that.

23 times an opponent has led at halftime in Allen Fieldhouse. KU has won 17/23 of those games.

Arizona St is the only team to win in Allen when losing at halftime. Only 4 teams have even won the 2nd half in scoring when losing at halftime 4/74.

On the road: Losing at halftime 22/61 (36%), opponents have won 16/22 games when leading at halftime. 2nd half adjustments are tough on the road.

KU tied or winning at halftime on the road has won 31/39 (79%).

Neutral Court: KU has been down at halftime in 8/21 games and lost 4/8 of those.

KU has lost 1/13 games it led at halftime (Dayton 2022).

Big-12 Tourney/NCAA Tourney:

KU has been down in 9/24 games and lost 4/9 of those with UNC marking the biggest comeback.

KU hasn't lost a tourney game it has led at halftime in the last 5 years.

KU trailing at halftime (1-9 points), 4/4 wins.
