How is that not a block?
If we come out of this with a mad af CB and a not broken JWill a loss may not be a biggie
Is this the game CB goes Alpha?
You’re not going to win a lot of games your opponent takes 12 more shots than you
Lol KJ isn’t going to get one minute this half is he? Would be ideal to have in the middle of the zone
TTU interior passing is unbelievable. So good
Lol Jalen getting hot hot
@KirkIsMyHinrich was just going to say
@approxinfinity I wouldn’t bet money on it personally…
@BShark would be so funny if Bill just leaned into it for one season. Especially with this team in transition, a zone could be kinda nasty…
@approxinfinity looked like a foul to me
Fine with the quick shot, speed the game up if you csn
@approxinfinity yes but not asking him to do much in the zone at least. Just be long
Love this idea. Zone with Zach and try to shoot our way back in
Bill waving the white flag with the zone
@wissox said in Red Raiders:
@Kcmatt7 Why are you two still commenting? You called game. Get lost!
Just mute me. You’d be doing me a favor tbh
@BShark got spanked without their best two offensive players
This game is about to get turned off
Defense needs to force a TO and get a dunk
@approxinfinity literally was sagging off his man on the open layup and didn’t even bother the shot. He’s useless on defense
Dave basically guarding no one rn.
The types of looks we’ve got we should be shooting 50% from deep. Hope some regression to the mean happens here
That’s game.
Please put KJ in. He is the only one who can rebound with them
Okay we figured out the post. KJ for the rest of the day.
Now figure out how to score a bit. Honestly they’re gifting threes. Like wide open threes. Just make a few
One of those days
Do play KJ like as many minutes as he can go.
Braun could shoot a little more from deep if he wanted... Wouldn't bother me
"Let me wait until I'm guarded and then take a shot triple teamed"
DAVE HOLY HELL
I do agree that if Remy was good to go he should have started
@benshawks08 glad I'mnot the only one who noticed lol
That was a questionable charge... Thought he was moving
UT in TROUBLE now
Jalen for 20 ppg today. book it

Bryce would have been so much better served to stay at KU... This OSU offense just has no structure or flow. Probably could have ended up being something special by the end.
I thought like Grimes he could have developed here and been fine. The problem was the same in both instances. :older_adult:
I honestly understood Grimes' gripe. Wanted the ball in his hands more and wasn't going to get it. A clash of strategy.
I would have thought Bryce's dad playing for Self would have helped the mindset that "it might take 4 years but Bill's got you." And Bryce never looked like he was as refined of a player as Grimes was. Idk, just my thoughts.
But yea dad's always see their kids in a different light than reality...

Kenpom Tempo:
- Baylor - 103
- KU - 46
- Texas - 351
- TTU - 293
- OU - 216
- ISU - 197
- WVU 243
- OSU 89
- TCU - 263
- KSU - 321
Future B12 teams:
- Houston - 298
- UCF - 202
- Cincy - 233
- BYU - 119
B12 basically the equivalent of B10 football this season.

I'm going to fall asleep watching this osu texas game
I feel like this is B12 basketball this season. KU pretty much the only fun team. Baylor is crazy good and efficient, but entertainment value-wise they are kinda boring
@MNJayhawk said in Red Raiders:
@rockchalkjayhawk I'll be streaming one and watching one on the big screen and yelling at both, no doubt!
I’m still debating which one gets the big screen
Jalen Wilson breakout game
AWFUL foul call there
Purdues D makes ours look good.
@FarmerJayhawk Yea I'd bet if you replaced 17 Teahan minutes with BMac and we have a different ball game.
@approxinfinity Bill messed with Oubre too much Imo. I thought he should have started day 1 and just let him figure out stuff on the court. But that's never been Bill's style (except with Grimes which is still weird tbh).
It took Malik Newman like 25 games before he finally "got it" so I'm personally not panicked. Outside of Josh Jackson I can't remember a single guy who ever came in and just was the perfect Bill Self player in both mentality and talent.
CB still seeming like he would be a late 2nd round pick at best from what I've looked at.
Plenty of time to move up and he's probably gotten the eye of scouts by now though. KU needs to make sure his NIL stuff is good enough he's back for next season.
I would have loved to see them link up with Bleacher Report. That would have been a good duo.
@mayjay I bought a pull cart this last year. Walked probably 10 rounds with it. Goal for 2022 is to walk at least 50.
@DCHawker I don't really know how you can use kenpom rankings as an argument against the offense, and then ignore that kenpom has KU ranked as the 4th best offensive team in the country.
I mean out of the top 10 in Kenpom, we've played the 2nd hardest schedule so far. And our defensive schedule is actually 37th in the country. So as far as scoring against good defenses, we have done it against a top 15% schedule.
Meaning we have the 7th best FG% and 8th most points ppg in the country against a reasonably hard schedule.
Teams ahead of us in FG%
- Gonzaga - 265 SOS - 252 DSOS
- Colorado State - 269 SOS - 246 DSOS
- South Dakota State - 132 SOS - 140 DSOS
- Purdue - 114 SOS - 214 DSOS
- Loyola (IL) - 147 SOS - 84 DSOS
- Murray State - 164 SOS - 277 DSOS
The only team playing anywhere near our level of schedule and scoring the ball more efficiently than us is Loyola Chicago. If you do the same with PPG, the story is basically the same. Except sub out CSU and Loyola for Cornell (278 SOS - 320 DSOS), Arizona (157 SOS - 184 DSOS) and Iowa (255 SOS - 209 DSOS).
Point being - KU is scoring the ball very well pretty much no matter how you want to look at it. And they've done it against a way harder schedule than the majority of the other top teams in the country so far.
