@KUSTEVE exactly. This is an elite eight grind it out game. Have to fight and execute
Getting stops are so important right now.
Vick!!!!
@BShark burned again on that play
Can't keep shooting ourselves in the foot
@cragarhawk that was the Kris Jenkins shot.
@Hawk8086 agreed. Could have been double digits
Does anyone recognize where that last play is from?
Huge threes to end the half. Huge
Man this isn't looking good. Oh well, still have a good shot at winning #13 and getting a one seed.
Man this isn't looking good
Reminiscent of the NOVA game last year.
@globaljaybird but can't keep leaving their shooters open
Difference in the game - Baylor five made threes. KU - just one. That HAS to change second half
@cragarhawk yes but at some point you have to score
Going to have to win the second half.
@DCHawker correct
Can't keep missing open shots. If those don't start falling, we aren't leaving with a W
Great to go against Baylors length. It will pay dividends in March
Need to get as many easy baskets as possible
Man got to make some shots. Good D is keeping us close.
If we can't score, this is a loss. Might have to go zone and press second half
@Crimsonorblue22 it's there all day
@Blown i think Tulsa is Friday/Sunday
@drgnslayr well, if he doesnt make it as a head coach, Im sure he would always be welcomed back to Lawrence.
This is a tough one to accurately predict. Many times we have seen teams play a brilliant game in AFH and we wonder "how are we going to win at their place?". Well, Baylor this year did what OU did last year. There was a lot of talk about Buddy wanting to win at AFH, similar thing with Baylor this year.
IMO, the degree of tightness that our guys play with is not discussed enough. Remember last years game at Texas right after they locked up #12? They beat our friend Shaka by 30. One of these games, we are going to see them play to their potential. Most teams have a couple games a season like that and we havent even had one yet. Not saying its on Saturday, but I think we will see it soon.
@ralster the problem is he never makes an individual move - do you even remember the last time he got the ball at the free throw line and they had a clear out for him? We did that all the time for Perry but all Carlton does is go out to the perimeter and pass the ball around. No dribble drive, no shot and no pick and pop. Not sure if its him or if its Self telling him not to worry about scoring, but I am tired of seeing the weak play. Coleby has the passion and the muscle to give Landen a breather. Unfortunately, Self prefers a weak player over a strong one.
@CRH107 why coach doesn't use Coleby more ill never understand. Carlton plays weak - that's all there is to it. He doesn't show much fight down low. Give me Coleby any day of the week.
@KUSTEVE not necessarily. If Trae commits to KU, then it's him, Malik, Vick and Garret. We are two guards short, so Devonte would still get all the playing time he wants next year and also be the man. If he was going to leave, he should have done it after his great season last year, IMO.
@JayHawkFanToo just like Marsha fans, haters are going to hate. Just keep winning.
I like it. I think it would speed Baylor up.
Yes this was the hardest
Shades of 2008. Amazing. Why can't they play with that energy all the time?
@JayHawkFanToo now on to Failor!
Well, looks like my midnight snack is crow again - I'm kind of getting used to it.
That's ballgame there on Adriana TO
Like Vitale said, comeback for the ages
Yes!!!!! What a turnaround!!!
O my goodness!!!!!! One of the greatest comebacks in years
@kjayhawks pathetic
@Eric-san that's just more excuses for their mental softness.
@DCHawker coaching my friend
@Bwag other teams have done it. More excuses
@truehawk93 as a collective this team is not tough. Been saying that for a while now
@DCHawker they have been non factors all year, like I have been saying.
@Blown coaching my friend
If the shots aren't falling, this team folds. Little toughness
They need to be strong and quit being soft. This is ridiculous.
Yep, keep shooting threes and missing them
