So,,, Adams, Braun, Ochai, Bobby and Joe. JCL and Ditch McLightfoot coming off the bench... Hmm. Okay, let's go!

Make no mistake Harris is still going to start and play big minutes. Remy otoh...hard to say when/if he will be back.

Something interesting...

Look at their stats

https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/players/remy-martin-2.html ↗

Remy isn't really demonstrably better. Shooting % extremely close.

I got ya, mistakenly left out Harris. He's a player.

That was a good question by Dr. Phil...

KU/TCU game rescheduled • Jan 14, 2022 04:49 PM

Hard to beat anyone twice in three days, let alone three times in one week.

Non-KU Games • Jan 14, 2022 04:46 PM

One guy saying that they should bring in Pitino lol.

ISU Game Thread • Jan 14, 2022 02:02 AM

@Crimsonorblue22 send him to Dr. Phil, we'll make a game thread.

"Welcome to a special live edition of my show! Today's guest is David McCormack, a center for the Kansas Jayhawks men's basketball team. David, you were once affectionately called Big Dave but now some are calling you Little D instead. What is going on with you?"

"Dr. Phil, I don't know, sir. That's why I'm here."

"Well, we're gonna get to the bottom of it, don't you worry. We'll be right back, after this commercial break."

@tis4tim no doubt, high character young man.

The reality of this team is • Jan 14, 2022 01:39 AM

@justanotherfan Adams and JCL playing at the same time adds a new and good occasional wrinkle.

@rockchalkwyo said in Bill Self "growth stunter":

I also want to point out that when Frank and Devonte were here, transfer rules and transfer probability was nothing as it is today. Kids want to play more otherwise they’re out. Self is balancing that as well.

Great point about the new transfer rules. Definitely something that every coach now needs to think about.

Bill Self "growth stunter" • Jan 13, 2022 05:49 PM

@kuballin10 said in Bill Self "growth stunter":

@Marco that’s just wrong and ridiculous.

Frank played 33, 33 and 36 his last three years here.

Dtae’ played 32, 35 and 37

Get out of here with our best lead guard shouldn’t play 30 mpg this is asinine

The reason that they played so many minutes as seniors - Frank 36 Devonte 37 - is because we had no depth. Remy is not going to play 37 mpg, period. If you believe such a reality to be asinine, that would be your problem not mine. Btw I said that Remy would probably not play over 30 mpg, didn't say that he shouldn't play 30. Why would you play him for much more than that? What, no one else gets playing time?

Bill Self "growth stunter" • Jan 12, 2022 10:53 AM

@kuballin10 but seniors Frank and Devonte in consecutive years both played on teams that seriously lacked depth. Even when a hundred percent healthy Remy probably won't go over 30 mpg, and why would he?

IARP - KU seeks alternative resolution • Jan 12, 2022 10:38 AM

@FarmerJayhawk said in IARP - KU seeks alternative resolution:

The interesting thing here is the IARP looks to be the one wanting a different kind of process, not KU. Wonder if they got through the infractions and were like oof there’s not 5 L1’s here

Why do you think the IARP is the one seeking a new process? Seems like KU initiated? @FarmerJayhawk

“Oct. 1 — “The Complex Case Unit requested a case management plan status conference to discuss the amended case management plan #2.”

Oct. 5 — “The Complex Case Unit submitted proposed draft procedures for an alternative method for the resolution of the case to the chief panel member. On that same date, the chief panel held a case management plan status conference to discuss scheduling deadlines and a request for an alternative method of resolution.””

From the IARP administrative timeline, it reads a lot like they want to cut a deal and took it to KU.

Yeah, it's not like the IARP would or could publicize that they are wanting to cut a deal. Personally, I think it bodes well for us.

Signing Day • Jan 11, 2022 03:09 PM

@Crimsonorblue22 With a name like his, he should be.

Signing Day • Jan 10, 2022 04:16 PM

@BShark said in Signing Day:

@Marco I like this entire class quite a bit. Athletes at every spot.

@Crimsonorblue22 I think with how things likely shake out he will end up the first guy off the bench. Hope Bobby can come along enough to start next year. Guessing Harris does though. 5 spot will be wide open.

I do too. It along with the one currently on campus gives us depth at every position. Will be young for sure, but man...

Bill Self "growth stunter" • Jan 10, 2022 04:05 PM

@BShark Me too. Pettiford is key next season, Harris would be good coming in off the bench - a two-headed point, if you will. Yesufu will be important as well, as either a two starting or first off the bench. We'll be young, but with alot of depth and athleticism inside and out.

Signing Day • Jan 10, 2022 03:53 PM

@jayballer67 that's why I'm looking forward to some Udeh. He's going to be a bully, ditto Zuby. Can't expect him to be Joel(?), but he won't be afraid guarantee you that. Rice is a bully too, as is Adams. Clemence needs to bulk up and he will, Martin will play some too. I am with you, tired of a 6'10 guy playing like he's 5'10.

Red Raiders • Jan 09, 2022 04:49 AM

@rockchalkjayhawk said in Red Raiders:

well, that wasn't pleasant.
The most frustrating part of watching KU hoops for me:
Dave receives the ball on the low post in good position. All he has to do is go up not even semi quickly over his right shoulder to the rim and score. But no. He puts it on the floor. backpedals 10 feet, heads to the middle of the lane and hoists up a 10 foot left handed clunker. every time nearly. maddening.

MORE KJ!!!!!!!!!! Don't care if he makes a few mistakes. energy.

I am onboard, Dave plays small so we might as well go small. For whatever reason, he has never fully understood that he is 6'10, always dribbling first even if right by the hoop. I mean serious, how many times has he even dunked? Anyone?

It is time to play KJ.

Mere Chat Room • Jan 09, 2022 02:44 AM

By the way, I apologize.... Thought that this was the matrix. Only now do I realize that this is the Meer Chat Room.

Signing Day • Jan 09, 2022 02:08 AM

@BShark I'm glad that you're onboard, appreciating some Dick. He is kinda cocky, but deservedly so because he is a talent that can flat out ball.

Red Raiders • Jan 09, 2022 02:05 AM

@Crimsonorblue22 at least he didn't strip naked and then run off the court, right?

Porter Moser can coach

I knew that he was going to be a great hire. The dude can coach. That team is going to be a defensive nightmare, this year and in years to come.

OSt might have had something to do with it. They just beat Texas.

But you really don't believe that, do you?

@kuballin10 said in Bill Self "growth stunter":

@approxinfinity win percentage is nice but only one thing matters....titles
He no doubt wins regular season stuff but same titles as Scott Drew and about to be passed in the next 2-3 years I’d say. Wright, Roy, K....ect. It’s the reason Cal isn’t that great X’s and O’s But he gives his kids long leashes. Lose some in the regular season but be better prepared for the tourney which is more important.

One is improving the other is going backwards (Drew vs self).

Pride is a killer.

I am not totally discounting what you say. I thought that Tristan should have had more playing time, ditto now Adams and Clemence. But am not on board with Self being replaced. Am on board with him being not so loyal to certain players while they are not producing, and making lineup changes when and if necessary.

Red Raiders • Jan 08, 2022 10:53 PM

Thoughts on the game, everyone?

Red Raiders • Jan 08, 2022 10:52 PM

Oh, okay...

Adams is a man’s man. He was Beards Beard

Explain.

Adams was horrible when he did play?

@Kcmatt7 said in Red Raiders:

We’ll get them back in Lawrence. Sometimes good to see Bill get outcoached. Make him look for answers and counter punches

Texas fans thought TTU fans were joking when they said Adams was the brains of the operation...

Your opinion @BShark? Should Adams have played more?

Red Raiders • Jan 08, 2022 10:49 PM

Sorry guys, sucky outcome. Bad all the way around.

Red Raiders • Jan 08, 2022 10:48 PM

We need you Braun, dtive....

Red Raiders • Jan 08, 2022 10:48 PM

For future reference Braun... Drive, drive, drive.

Red Raiders • Jan 08, 2022 10:46 PM

Officials helped give this one away

Red Raiders • Jan 08, 2022 10:45 PM

That was a foul

Red Raiders • Jan 08, 2022 10:44 PM

@Crimsonorblue22 lol. Sorry.

Red Raiders • Jan 08, 2022 10:43 PM

That's it

Red Raiders • Jan 08, 2022 10:42 PM

God, can't wait til next year. We'll have an inside presence

Red Raiders • Jan 08, 2022 10:41 PM

Everytime, drive CB!

Red Raiders • Jan 08, 2022 10:41 PM

Drive every time CB!

Red Raiders • Jan 08, 2022 10:40 PM

Braun time.

Red Raiders • Jan 08, 2022 10:35 PM

Bad subs, bad everything

Red Raiders • Jan 08, 2022 10:34 PM

Set him up for a freaking play! Bring him in..

Red Raiders • Jan 08, 2022 10:33 PM

Bring in Adams!

Red Raiders • Jan 08, 2022 10:32 PM

No one inside. But even if Dave were there it wouldn't matter
