@Crimsonorblue22 Window dressing. We have a difference in opinion, don't shoot me. Imo he is not a good person, let alone - how old is he? - kid. He tried to - after starting the fight - bring (changed his mind only after someone from behind changed it for him, reminding him of what the fuck he was about ready to do) a chair to what was his fist fight.
@BeddieKU23 Oh, that's right.... But Silvio denied knowing about it, right?
@BShark said in 2020 Recruiting:
@BeddieKU23 Hobo version of Jalen Wilson tbh.
We're going to get a hobo version of Jalen Wilson? Cool.....
@Crimsonorblue22 Probably not (maybe Alcorn State), but we can hope @Crimsonorblue22, we can hope.
@FarmerJayhawk You too.
@StLJhawk I'm not in the danger group, but Iove my parents and country. This is very scary stuff.
@FarmerJayhawk In answer to your loaded politically-correct question, he should be kicked off the team. There has to be rules and repercussions. Sorry Silvio, I realize that you have a girlfriend on the softball team, but picking up a chair and getting ready to bash a guy in the head - after you started the altercation in the first place by standing over and taunting a fallen player - is a no-no.
@StLJhawk I'll just say it - if 40 to 70% of our population becomes infected this nation will be forever changed.
@FarmerJayhawk Thanks for giving your permission for me to do me! And I give mine for you to be you.... In moments of duress the true version of a person can and will show itself.
Are we even going to have a tournament?
@FarmerJayhawk Okay. To me it's not about optics, I could not care less. I think the guy is just bad, period - not only as a person, but as a player.
@BShark Well, I guess what I'm saying then is that I hope that he doesn't want to. Sorry, not buying into the "he's a good kid" theory. He was getting ready to possibly kill a guy with a chair.
@FarmerJayhawk "Well, he has a girlfriend on the softball team, so we obviously have to keep him here"? I don't get it...
I'd rather we play Creighton than Florida State.
@FarmerJayhawk To be honest, I hope that he does transfer. Thought the same about Grimes, and that worked out pretty well for both parties.
@BeddieKU23 Did he admit it?
@Bosthawk I hear you on always waiting for the new season to begin. I buy atleast two college basketball yearbooks every season (though I could get all of the info online). When they hit the stands I feel good, knowing that some KU bball is about ready to start.
So,,, what are your opinions on Gethro? I see him getting atleast 8+ productive minutes per game.
@Texas-Hawk-10 Good observations, but I think that you are wrong about Harris - he's a junkyard dog.
@Bwag Sure he was, no doubt. And now he is also on to jail.
Give me more good dance.... I'm of the opinion that regardless of team or conference affiliation no one should be invited to the tournament unless having a .500 record or better.
The NCAA cleared De Sousa to play, and therein lies their Self-made (pun intended) mess. How can you clear a guy to play (for grades? Yeah, right! It wasn't only about grades) and then later try to hammer a university that - though Adidas supposedly did, yet the player and guardians say otherwise - did not give the player a dime?
@StLJhawk said in Boy guys I really just don't know best to keep tabs:
Some random facts updated as of this evening...
110/195 countries infected
109,974
Total Confirmed Cases3,828
Deceased542 known cases in US
22 deceased
40-70% projected to contract it
15% of US population is over 65
8 states have declared state of emergency
1/4 of population of Italy quarantined
Very uncool, to say the least...
Belmont could be a scrapper.
@BShark With the right rotation and if everyone can set aside egos, a rotation like that can work. That Kentucky team that should have won it all used a two-platoon sytem to great effect until meeting Frank the Tank in the Final 4.
@BShark By the way, I appreciate all of what you do for this site. Guess my lazy ass needs to step up its game.
@kjayhawks I saw that he has Sean Sutton on his staff.
@dylans Oh man, kid colds are the worst! They go to daycare and later school - festering incubators - and build somewhat of a tolerance. Man, I used to catch horrible what I call daycare flu - all of those little snotty-nosed kids.
@dylans said in Boy guys I really just don't know best to keep tabs:
When healthcare was made universally available and affordable my premium doubled and reduced the level of service I had be receiving (no longer offered). I fully understand why everyone isn’t insured. When the insurance companies thought they had everyone forced into buying their product they raised prices. I don’t want the government involved in my healthcare at all, they mess everything up.
As far as the numbers go I have healthcare and am not likely to get counted if infected, I have to be pretty near death to go to the doctors office outside of routine maintenance. The number of infected and survived is far higher that we will ever know, but we will hear about every death.
This is a new virus, new is scary. Unfortunately there is no way to quarantine it now, a month ago yes. Now it’s spread to too many areas/people to be contained. Instances of new infection in areas hit first are going down indicating it’s burning itself out. We are in the front end here, but within a few months it’ll be over and we have the summer on our side - less forced inside time we trade domes for open top stadiums. With any luck it won’t get as bad here as it did overseas just do to timing (it won’t be due to preparedness).
I agree, a month ago yes. That is what I have been saying - our governments failed us, put markets over lives. As soon as the damn thing was announced all travel to and from China - including connecting destinations and fucking cruise ships - should have been banned.
@Crimsonorblue22 That is bad..
@BShark I agree with you, though. We need another big guy.
@BShark Where would Tristan go, Utah? You may be right.... Have you heard rumblings?
1st-team All-American, without question. So much for the slump (Lol), huh?
@jayballer73 The guy clearly threw his leg out long after the shot - a no-brainer non-call.
You know, I think we're going to win it all, I really do. But regardless of outcome, this is one of my alltime favorite KU teams.
@BShark I hear you, man. It's been Great to see our D again!
@drgnslayr While not for government-run healthcare I agree that something is wrong with our system. I think it is a combination of the insurance companies, as well doctors and hospitals double-charging. Have a good friend who knows a well-known doctor, she said that he admitted as much while saying that it is common practice. They overcharge, and then the insurance companies have to pay more - an endless cycle.
I live in a relatively small burg (I have private insurance, but usually use the VA), and here they actually make seniors and everyone else pay 20 dollars before they even get in to see their doctor.
God, I love this team! Vitale was chomping at the bit for a foul to be called against Garrett, when it was clear that Moretti threw his leg out. Not a big Dookie V fan. Am I wrong, or does it seem that once Roy left he became anti-KU?
@jayballer73 Lol! True... And while many disagree with me I agree with Coach Self. The only people standing to gain anything from our scheduling Wichita State would be Wichita State.
What do I think? Townsend will be the fall guy, no longer coaching in college basketball (replaced by Manning), Self will be censored, and we will have to vacate not only our conference title and Final 4 appearance from '17-'18 but also give up scholarships for a three year period.
@dylans and, as usual, the NCAA is wrong. By the way, what is happening with Miller and Arizona?
@wissox It would be interesting to know how Zion's mother was living before he got his NBA money, now wouldn't it?
@BeddieKU23 That - other than Larry Brown, which is laughable and also a pandora's box - is what I have been saying all along.
I'll stand by what I said previously. The government dropped the ball on this from the get go. If a person doesn't think that the intertwined markets were partly to blame for the world governments taking so long to do anything that person is being naive, at best.
@Texas-Hawk-10 I hear you. I prefer the way they are doing it now.
I didn't fill out a bracket last year, but will this. Let's face it, it's damn hard to be objective as a Jayhawk fan. And that's putting it mildly.
@BShark said in Marcodamus here!:
@Marco I don't generally think too much about players that outright quit because they didn't want to fight for minutes.
Wilson would probably be getting reserve minutes, maybe better than Tristan.
I feel the same way. I thought that the guy had a real chance to contribute. Where did he go, Arkansas?
@kjayhawks no doubt! It's been fun seeing us play defense again this year.
Man, remember like it was yesterday (was it?). I was and still am very excited about this team. We can do this! It would have been interesting to see how McBride and Wilson would have fit in.
