@jaybate-1.0 He was hardly moving on offense, and when he did, he looked like he was in slow motion.
@jaybate-1.0 I thought he looked the slowest I had ever seen him last game. It looked like he was laboring to catch up the whole game, and prodding along. I think he needs rest. We're playing him too much, and not playing Greene and Svi enough. The message we send when we can't find one single minute for a kid who has worked so hard ...smh. Maybe he will remember his other 3 point shooters in this upcoming game...
@HighEliteMajor I think we'll have to throw up a ton of perimeter shots - they certainly will be firing away...
@jaybate-1.0 The cheetah line ...i'm still laughing....LMAO...
@drgnslayr I think we'll make 20 3 pointers against the Clones. Our offense has been waiting for a cherry cheese cake match up like the Clones. I think we brutalize them, and their punk fan base...
@JayHawkFanToo The "chin music" took one on the chops for that blasphemy. It makes me wonder if the naysayers even watch our team. This is a very good defensive team. Anybody who says otherwise should simply put their .2 cents worth back in their pocket.
@jaybate-1.0 OMG...you're the best...
**The forearm smash would come down either directly on soft spot on top of the skull, or more preferably across the bridge of the nose. The forearm smash is always delivered with the radius bone in the forearm to the bridge of the nose. If the player turns to protect his face then an attempt is made to bring the blow to the temple, or the neck. And with any luck the leaper actually comes down on the opponent and whip kicks with the trailing leg. **
@JayHawkFanToo BTW ...
KU on Wednesday ranked first in Big 12 Conference games only in scoring defense (55.3 ppg), field-goal percentage defense (32.7) and rebounding margin (plus 6). The Jayhawks also ranked second in blocked shots and steals in league games only.
Hattrick to KuSports. Does that sound like the defense ranked so low by Kenpom? The number 1 defense in the best conference in America.
@ZIG Or...we could win Saturday.
@DoubleDD From a pair of rockets, we're down to saggy man breasts...lolol...
@JayHawkFanToo Calipari? Ahhh..the poor guy gets picked on. I feel just awful about my attitude towards that slime sucking dawg..I do...I do.... I really do.....
LOL
J/k
@joeloveshawks Well, you saw the game last night. The first thing you saw was a tribute to Coach K from Coach Self, which they play everytime we play on ESPN. Then, they had their obligatory half time show on the Kentucky Wildcats, where the studio hosts quit talking about KU/OSU, and went into a long discussion of Kentucky basketball. Now, this is a long-standing pattern with ESPN, where we have seen half time interviews with the Squid on our games twice in the past 2 years, neither of which had anything to do with the Mildcats. There is an obvious, pronounced bias on ESPN towards KU. So, it doesn't surprise me a bit they would overlook Frank.
@jaybate-1.0 Nostradamus call on the game. If we had run the offense that works, we would've won by 20. Maybe this is a three dimensional chess strategery aimed at throwing off the Mayor- maybe it was a knee-jerk reaction to Napoleon Jr's "hack a Hawk" game plan ....maybe he simply forgot to try what works...
My predicted Big 12 standings:
1- KU 14-4
2-WVU 12-6
2-Clones 12-6
4-UT 11-7
4-OU 11-7
6=Faylor 10-8
6-OSU 10-8
8-Grapes 8-10
9- TCU 6-12
10-TTU 1-17
@JayHawkFanToo Bingo. Hack a Hawk.
@jaybate-1.0 ahhh..i'm sorry...my entire computer crashed...i made it back online with 4 minutes left...i'll certainly be there for saturday's match up with the Clones...
@Crimsonorblue22 5 TURNOVERS...HE'S THINKING TOO MUCH...
@Crimsonorblue22 i'll guard him...
@jaybate-1.0 I think you're right on the money about the OSU analysis. Let's not forget- the Pokies have been one of our toughest foes in conference for awhile now. Now we have a different way of beating them, so it will be interesting if the game is down to the last shot tonight ( as it has been, it seems for the last 3 games we've played them), or will our new offense, and new pressure defense create alot more offensive opportunities, and we blow them out? I think we blow them out.
@JayHawkFanToo I can't really recall anyone in this forum predicting KU as the conference winner.
ahem...( clearing throat) ...I am not only predicting we'll win the conference, I'm predicting we'll win by 2 games. Upvoting your post
for the Rick Flair video..wish I could upvote it 1,000 times...
@jaybate-1.0 You're requesting "The Lurker"? Why didn't you say so?

@JayHawkFanToo You mean...the WORLD FAMOUS KANSAS JAYHAWKS? Two games in - we're already in first...LOL... love it!!!
@JayHawkFanToo And which team out of the 7 seven teams is ranked the highest?
@jaybate-1.0 Coach took a year to get to your idea about Perry- move him to the 3. And, we see the results. Nice call, Nostradamus.
@wrwlumpy Devonte has to be a big part of what we do out there - we looked like 2008 at times yesterday. The steals, the runouts, the defensive pressure was incredibly good. Maybe this is the game we dub, "Perry finds a home" ...and it's not down on the box, it's beyond the perimeter ...lol...
@jaybate-1.0 It's like a box of chocolates= you never know what you're gonna get. Momma always said " Shoot the trey, Jayhawks"...
I freaking love this team. 11 steals...runout city all game....no drop-off, simply an avalanche of ass whoop from beginning to end. Threes raining from all over the place, Devonte back playing... Texas and OU both losing....NFL Playoffs on right after the game...what's not to like about this?
@JayHawkFanToo The straw dogs are dropping like flies...
@JayHawkFanToo I took a shot...lol.
@Lulufulu i was surprised the tarholes would whip harell and company so bad on the boards...24-14 boards, with 11-3 off rebound advantage...
OffTopic: Geez, UNC is whiiping Louisville on the boards first half. Rick flat can't beat Roy, no matter what school they're at. ( 150-95)
@Hawk8086 Can't WAIT for Devonte to get back.
@Crimsonorblue22 I'm nice. BTW, look for Svi to grab bunches of minutes today, since his folks are here from Siberia.
@drgnslayr You see that same "eye of the tiger" brand I see in Greene. Coach Self brings tough, gritty teams to play, and this year's edition is no different. I see shades of 2012, along with glimpses of 2008 at times. i don't think we were mentally tough last year- this year's edition seems to be a lot grittier crew.

LMAO...PHOF
@approxinfinity Thon and Carlton Bragg. I'm in.
@Crimsonorblue22 He's going to be great..I am pumped...
@jaybate-1.0 I was thinking we could a KU Jayhawks private airport, with a landing strip with our logo on it. I was thinking we could get Adidas to stick up some LCD signs where we could flash the player's picture as they roll into the tarmac. There, we could have a small crowd cheering as they exit the plane. Then we pick them up with a KU themed Escalade with spinning wheels, with a hologram of Drake activated when they open the door.
@jaybate-1.0 Upvote for the Gentlemen Prefer Blondes reference.
I hope we get a slew of top talent. We can platoon 'em.
I hope we sign 4 more this year - we'll have the spots.
@DanR YES...that one..LOL. I used to date a gal that worked there, and I would stumble back trying to make it uphill. I would fall down 50 times on the way home in the snow...lol.
@JayHawkFanToo True that. When I hear Ken Pom speak on interviews, I'm thinking...put my hand on my wallet- we've got a used car salesman here....
@jaybate-1.0 Quantrill? I used to get to get drunk at Quantrills. Do you remember a seedy little joint in Lawrence called the Harbour Lights?
This is 15 minutes away....

@Crimsonorblue22 Liberal, the bad boys, huh?....LOL. Liberal is a dirty little border town now.
@Crimsonorblue22 I was in Lawrence several years ago, and they had replaced the rope with a metal frame. You seriously have to have some form of help to make it up the hill to get to campus on that end when it is snowy out. If you try to walk, you simply slip and fall.
@Crimsonorblue22 I grew up in Liberal. Lawrence was the big city to me...
@Crimsonorblue22 When I was at KU, they had a rope tied from the bottom of the hill to the top on the street, and you had to pull yourself up. I dated a gal that lived several streets down from the Hawk ( when i say down, i mean at the bottom of the hill ), and there was a rope that people used in snow to pull themselves up the hill...
@Crimsonorblue22 I grew up in Kansas, and I froze to death every winter. I'll never forget climbing the rope to get to class in the dead of winter. It's just too freaking cold in Kansas right now ...lol.
@Crimsonorblue22 LOLOL....That picture is Craig Park ( Spring Bayou) in Tarpon Springs. If you walked to it from where i live, it would take 3 minutes.
