@BeddieKU23 I think our offense flowed best when we had a healthy Remy and a Pettiford driving the lane, and opening up the floor for OCH and Braun. We need a healthy Remy, and a healthy Pettiford. I also think we are giving too many minutes to JW, and too few to Yes. He'll work it out, though.

@BeddieKU23 We fell apart the second he took Juan out, and put in JW.

Love getting the W in Stoolwater. That's a place that has been rough for us too many times. The blown lead and the 9 minute drought sucked, but we managed to come back, and post a double digit victory. No doubt we have issues. We certainly don't look like the 6th best team in the country. But, we live to fight another day. Rock Chalk.

I hope Remy can go 30. I think we're a much better team with 2 point guards on the floor. Everything flows better- we play faster, Och and Braun get wide open looks, and we can get out and run. We looked like last year last game.

Joel Embiid has a double-double at halftime. Doesn't he have some eligibility left?

@jayballer67 Glad to be back, buddy. RCJHGKU.

@mayjay Good catch...lol. 122 and counting...

@BeddieKU23 Good stuff. The addition of Jalen and the subtraction of Remy played a huge part in making our offense sputter. If Dave is hurting, then that could explain in part why he looked so bad yesterday. Coach got a negative reaction from the team at halftime- the dumping the ball into the post every possession 2nd half didn't work at all. I give Coach a C- yesterday. He's brilliant, and he is the best, but he was very stubborn. He turned a blow out into a game that was too close for comfort.

@wissox Hey buddy...hope all is well! My response is I agree with you that players shouldn't be opting out of bowl games, but then I get to thinking: last game of NFL regular season, the playoff teams bench their starters...in the NBA, a gazillion players take the night off for "rest", MLB players get regular days off- some a ton of days off. Especially if they happen to be on my fantasy baseball roster. You're going to say...."BUT, they didn't quit on their team". And you'd be right... in a way. They aren't playing for all the marbles, though. If we start seeing teams in the playoffs begin to have guys checking out, then we will have a problem.

@approxinfinity Hey there!

Hey, hope everyone is well. I've been on stealth mode for awhile, but I always read the posts. No, there are not pages of analysis like there was before, but there is still very good stuff. This is the best collection of KU fans on the intraweb. So, let's get to analyzing: We kind of crapped the bed a bit yesterday, but maybe we realize how important Remy is when we pontificate why we looked so crummy yesterday. Our offense simply has to start 2 point guards, or we end up looking like last year. JCL>Jalen. Put him in, coach...he's ready to play... Big Dave is in a state of mental confusion, so whatever they are doing to help him ain't working, folks. They need to make a mix tape of last year when he smoked it during conference, and make him watch it about 1,000 times... It really sucks we couldn't get our feet wet in conference at home against the Purple Toads, and now have to go on the road for our first 2 conference games, followed by a Clone invasion. Geez, the road gets much more difficult from here on out. I still think the ceiling is national championship. Let's win the conference, and beat Dook and Ratface for the title!
