Both cleared tomorrow!

And tomorrow the same in the NCAA hall of mirrors

@HighEliteMajor maybe as long as we aren't effectively pressured on the outside.

@dylans I saw what you did there !

The NCAA is really a Schroedinger box/experiment

Duke lost!

Nice job @jaybate-1-0. You've nailed a lot of it. Only issue with Garrett is defense knows the don't have to guard him outside. And with Newman a non-factor and Mitch on the floor - our offense bogged down getting just enough to get over the hump. Our guys don't quite trust Mitch inside so we need some consistency now from Mitch, Newman needs to find himself as you've discussed and Garrett needs to develop an outside shot, whether 3 ball or mid range.

No - I know I'm genius, huh?

Yep - would sure like to see the refs call it with bball rules

We
Could be using him for sure

@HawkChamp Did he have eight turnovers too?

We'll be ground hard by Press Virginia.

They foul so much the refs swallow the whistle.

@DoubleDD hoping he isn't so beat up he starts to lose his edge

@mayjay I liked and still like the way @BShark responded and the way others did too.

We are certainly on a tightrope this season.

Especially any team that will pressure us on the exterior.

mayjay said:

@kjayhawks Dok had 1 rebound.

And I saw him turn away from one that was a poor shot and even hit the ground.

Outside of one game - can't remember which on - he has not rebounded outside his immediate area well, and doesn't French seem to try.

@BShark way to keep a good face on it with people taunting you for your observation/thought-opinion. Props!

@kjayhawks and WV picks up a road win at KSU and goes to 2-0. Race on.

If the new bigs become very productive - a big "if" perhaps - would 4:1 ball go below 20 min a game?

@KUSTEVE self gave lip service to split 20/20 min big traditional 3:2 ball to 4:1 small ball, but one has to suspect if we see any production from Preston/Silvio then I think you could be right.

@Jayballer54 talk is cheap. Even from CS’s mouth.

@KUSTEVE perhaps. The whole environment is ridiculous as well.

@KUSTEVE not a fan. What the H E double hockey sticks is that mayhem going on. But the stunts he pulled, I'd just flatten his ass on the court.

Merry Christmas to us

@JayHawkFanToo I've got to figure out how to watch this one too. Same reasons. And I was still under illusion it was at 1 until this morning. Hmmmm

Those are the only 2 the NCAA accepts. It’s usually a couple weeks last I knew. But I haven’t brushed up in quite awhile. It may be faster now.

2 weeks seems too optimistic- wonder if he puts KU down to receive the score or if he can put the NCAA down to receive it directly?

But Vick caught most of those passes with his back to the basket. Their length would close quickly on him. Looks like it should be an easy shot but I think you want to shoot in rhythm and I don't think he had rhythm there.

Because their length had him looking to pass first psychologically, wasn’t because they were physically reacting to him in that spot

HawkChamp said:

@kjayhawks eh not necessarily. Not when he's standing there with the ball wide open at the free throw line looking for someone open. He needs to shoot that.

Yes and Amen.

If anything, him doing so would have opened up the dunks even more. Cuse left him open because was only looking to pass out. DG was having to shoot way outside (thankfully hitting ‘em) because the D was not sucking in from above or below like it normally would when you are in the soft belly of the zone

@Hawk8086 good questions and the answer to#3 is yes

Not sure what that emoji means, but I think I agree.

@jayballer54 opportunities to take the test come faster than getting results sometimes

@jaybate-1.0 @jaybate-1.0 I like your quote/reference. I think I first came across that in a book called The Invisible Hand: A Conspiratorial view of History. Wilson definitely didn’t like the Constitution and the constraints it put on government

@DoubleDD amen. UK fan at work has taken on the approach you described for the last several years. No buy in to the team. Will rejoice if they win, but even their last push to NC wasn’t thrilling to him.

@jaybate-1.0 but again, I think your designation goes to usage. I like keeping it cleaner as proposed - a kinda neutral scale that transcends team.

So I’m not going to see Billy’s KU debut tonight, huh?

@JayHawkFanToo understand. I do watch from time to time. Usually switch over to hockey if I’m in the mood for sports. I find it more exciting than NBA.

Agreed. Expressed well. Happy Thanksgiving all and thanks for the time you all put in on this site

Anyone going tomorrow. Just picked up 5 GA for the family

@mayjay fair enough. Still unwatchable to me too often.

@Lulufulu I don't think he'd have swung wildly if he didn't grab the rim in the first place. I agree with Self, better he get called now and start working on breaking that bad habit before in heat of passion in an close game he get called and it really cost us.

@mayjay the fact that the others will continue to get PT over FM to me is endemic of why the NBA is often unwatchable much of the time.

@Red.Rooster exactly right. PG FM is consensus POY.

@BShark who's Dain Ervin? (I don't follow recruiting much at all.)

This paragraph for sure: Even with the loss of Frank Mason III, the Wildcats have a solid roster, with the only potential concern being up front, where they are thin. Devonte Graham and Billy Preston will be huge factors in determining how far the Wildcats can go in the NCAA tournament. And hey, it doesn't hurt having Self at the helm.

Editors?

@KUSTEVE guess you'd agree with the commentary that he doesn't get position set early.

Haven't been watching close enough to tell myself.

@mayjay I was posting in #General

Almost no one there. Thought it might be Halloween or something

Think we'll win?

:-)

So I was expecting to be blacked out on Watch ESPN app, but it's even high quality signal tonight. Guess it's good I registered the acct before cancelling satellite service. I expect them to realize at some point I'm no longer paying.

Vick had some good O RB's and put backs.

We use slack at work too. I like jabber a little better though they're different

Looks like slack was back up.

@JayHawkFanToo blacked out clear down to NW Arkansas. Did have some success previously with a IP Blicker add on.

@JayHawkFanToo I cut the cord. Now I have to figure out how to see games this year.
