Lol we are so bad this year
@BShark I saw the score but I didn’t get to watch.
This St Joe team took Auburn to OT. I don’t think they’re 20 points worse than us at this point. But that would be a nice statement win after yesterday’s showing.
@BShark I know we really wanted Dosumnu
Does Brad Underwood really have Illinois in the top 10?
How did OSU let him leave? How did KSU not go after him harder?
For betting purposes
It means instead of starting the game 0-0, the game starts KU -19 to SJU 0
Might be a crazy season
@BShark with the lower game total you’re probably right.
We will have a pretty good feel for this team after the Creighton game. Will have played 3 good teams. Can’t go 0-3
@BShark I just think we are more like a 10 loss team this year. Will drop a couple of games the three doesn’t drop I’m thinking.
Still wouldn’t want to play us in March/April
Mason and Graham are exceptions. Just not easy to find guys severely underranked who will be so good they get jerseys in the rafters.
Need to realize we were spoiled
@AsadZ they have two 100+ ranked guys.
Give me a Suggs

@Kcmatt7 he had one. Selby :)
I’ve blocked these memories from my brain.
@BShark why can Self not land a OAD PG?
@BShark at least he showed he was willing to play Wilson at the 5 today though. I was worried he’d throw Mitch out there no matter what.
Still hope Dave plays limited time
Dave is basically Bragg. Slow footed big with limited athleticism and an okay jumper
We’ve seen plenty from Dave and today looked like what we saw last year.
Zags posts are good, defensively they aren’t anything special. It’s a stupid argument
@Texas-Hawk-10 I’m judging Dave off of 2 previous seasons. He was shit last season too which is why we went 4 guard
@BShark I mean I realize that he is going to play some. But I just don’t know he’s capable of being better.
@BShark does he?
He was legitimately terrible today. 4 TO, 3/9 from the field with zero blocks.
@BShark I agree I think talent is fine. Especially if you were anticipating Silvio being in this team during recruiting season.
@BShark I’m already thinking we need to go 5 guards and sit Dave completely.
Dave was 3/9 from the field. He’s not even an offensive presence
@BShark said in Gonzaga Game Thread:
The defense isn't where it needs to be but the people discounting the Zags on twitter saying anyone would score on KU are nuts. Gonzaga has multiple pros.
Still, Bill Self teams don’t give up 100 points. And definitely not 70 of them in the paint.
The defense is going to be terrible.
The drop off from Doke to Dave is incredible

For having a team of 6’5 athletes we don’t appear to be trying to use that to our advantage at all
Playing a team just as big will do it
Well they are pressing and rotating guys and sprinting up and down the floor.
We... aren’t.

@BShark p***y at the rim. Reminds me of Svi
Someone for us has to be more assertive offensively and it can’t be Garrett
Enaruna*
Snaring hasn’t been in yet right? Not exactly a bite of confidence in his development
@BeddieKU23 said in Gonzaga Game Thread:
Defense will be a work in progress (optimistically)
I thought it would be all we had to hang our hat on this year...
This is gross.
@BShark said in Gonzaga Game Thread:
Honestly, play a zone. Eff it.
This team may have to.
That or full court press. We have the bodies to do that.
70% from the field is embarrassing. Not even like they’re shooting well, these are layups
Old teams we are begging Self to defend the 3. This year taking a three looks like it’ll be a gift.
This team may struggle to stay ranked
Ochai goes for 25 to start off his POY campaign.
Good guys 72 over the ‘scared to leave their conference’ Zags 68.
Literally if anyone else were having this same season we’d be in awe.
But because Pat did what he did two years ago we want more.
@Crimsonorblue22 my sister had a baby in April and they let her husband go in. What a traumatic experience to have to go through all alone...
@Texas-Hawk-10 Could he have signed it before they tendered other offers though?
Oh. New update. We didn't get married. The future in-laws were NOT okay with the eloping thing and the reception (don't get me started on it).
We will get married this Summer (hopefully the vaccines go well) no matter what. Whether we do the big wedding will obviously depend on the current climate.
Instead we bought a 1950s ranch that we put about half of our saved wedding funds into this year. Which has been a lot of fun.
I think the next thing I want to do after the wedding is either convert an old school bus into an RV or buy a ran down lake house to fix up.
I figured he would have signed his offer immediately.... At least guaranteed he'd be on a roster and bank $1.5M.
Seems like this news is blowing over, which I'm not surprised... Still think it is a weird hire no matter what.
@nuleafjhawk what are you even talking about?
I am in the keep Les camp as well. I think he's done a great job recruiting and putting together a staff. Still needs to find a QB, but that has been every coach's Achilles heel here.
Gruden and Carr have us figured out. Multiple TE sets to force us to have a shitty LB in, run the ball, and dump it off on a blitz to a mismatch.
Nothing is more embarrassing than losing to a Carr twice in a year
Hope the players can come ready to play after all the trash talk this week.
