@approxinfinity Pretty sure it was just Wheaties. They are pretty sticky when you mix them with Mississippi River water. At the right consistency they'll hold together for quite a while.
I actually prefer worms though for bottom fishing... they will stay on the hook forever, so it's pretty relaxing. Plus, you might nab a catfish, drum or gar instead of a carp, depending on the body of water...
Wheatie balls for carp. (box of wheaties, plus water, on a treble hook with a weight to get it to rest on the bottom).
My most memorable fishing day was when I was about 10 years old with my uncle Don on the Mississippi River, below a dam in the quad cities. 1975 ish. We caught about 100 carp. He just threw them all in the trunk of his Oldsmobile to take them back to Kewanee to a friend who like to eat them. He chain smoked, so the fish smell in the car actually wasn't too bad.
Had some decent fishing since then, but--pound for pound--that was the best fishing day of my life. LOL
I wish the post game show was still on in Lawrence on local TV. I'd love to hear an explanation.
Rock chalk! Hope we make the tourney as an 8/9 or play in. That'd be fun, like SEMO or Murray State.
Four fouls tells me a lot too.
I'm just curious. The players effort is bad, but... does anyone scout? does anyone work up a f'in game plan? Do they even bother to practice?
Honestly, we look like we have not practiced since December and we're just going out there winging it like some third tier mid major that has a basketball team and 20 fans.
I hope we lose by 40 at this point, so some sincere questions can be asked
At least Passmore TRIED to drive. Thank you, son.
nope
this is our big break
@jay4ever what contract?
@approxinfinity He's international, so no NIL. Might as well move on and make some $$
@approxinfinity He's probably gone to the NBA
Good ol hUnt. Never got beyond the three point line. Good grief.
Plus, that BYU guy traveled. Still should have had his shot smashed down into his face.
Can we just not have to watch Storr and Hunter any more? That's really all I want at this point.
@jayhawks2010 His screens are useless because he just stands there after setting them. Every time. Kills the offense.
down 25. Cut it to 20 and maybe make a run....
Don't get on the floor or anything, Storr
I can't believe the plan was to shoot threes back into this.
Pretty sure Hunt has never taken a charge in his life.
Boom good start. Ball off stone hands BYU guy
20 minutes for some PRIDE fellas.
@patoh3 said in Tonight's game:
“This is the most un-Kansas team I have seen under Bill Self.” Seth Greenberg
This is the most un-Kansas team I've seen since James Naismith. -- Dan R.
I'm just blown away by the total ineptness on D. Like 10 wide open threes from the corner. How are you going to fix that with a halftime speech. Should have been coached from day 1.
We should be down 30.
I'm going to say it. Bill doesn't look good.
WTF
@wissox said in Tonight's game:
What does coach even say at halftime?
Probably nothing, like I assume he has all year.
I can't believe we're just jacking threes now. Gross.
We've suffered some. That Dedric Lawson year was pretty bad too. Not this bad though.
Great D then a BS bailout call by the ref
Griff is trying. Appreciate that.
Kevin Young looks a lot different than I remember as a Jayhawk.
KJ can outjump that chump that's guarding him.
Weakest foul so far. Good job ref, for waking up.
@benshawks08 Yep. Good strategy on BYU's part
Seriously, Flory's been knocked or pulled to the ground three times so far on defensive boards. How the refs missing that shit.
How many times is Flory going to get MUGGED on rebounds, Bill.
Hey Bill, take the big useless piece of shit out, OK.
I remember when Bill wouldn't play Withey against a small Mizzou team. Good times.
First inbounds play in at least 10 games. Good start.
Trash, but this seems to be the game plan. LOL
Budunga mauled no foul
Not sad to see our guys get punched in the mouth right away. See how they respond...
0 for three vs 3/4
Sigh
@focojayhawk I think you could change your title from "Mercenaries" to "Quitters" and it would fit better.
These transfers are guys who literally quit their teams--they aren't coming to KU to play with pride and leave it all out there on the court. Maybe Mayo, who moved up from a 2nd tier division.
I realize we've had a few key transfers in the past, and clearly you can stick one in the starting lineup and maybe have a key guy off the bench. That's been a pretty good strategy. Beyond that, you water down the culture and tradition of physical--and mental--toughness.
I think that's why KJ is out there so much. He actually cares. He's also the only tie left to the chain of tough big men... Morris brothers, Embiid, T-Rob, Doke, Big Dave and even Mitch Lightfoot. None of those guys would be putting up with half assed effort.
Might drop out of the rankings for the first time in a long time. Probably still make the tourney to keep that streak alive. This team has regressed every week since the start. Concerning to say the least.
