@BeddieKU23 Dawson has been a little dinged up so they were limiting him some is what I had heard , nothing extreme just being careful

I been telling people Tiller was gonna be more in Pactual then some seem to believe.- -

This team is going to be trouble for teams on the defensive end. we are so long , athletic , alot of deflected balls , steals , turnovers'
.
Peterson is the real deal. they were saying they left him out most of the 2nd half to see how the others could respond with him out, Mercy the kid is crazy athletic

@drgnslayr so very true , they can't even get an invite to cater the event lol

Wel I see where Jerome is off and running- -making some pretty strong remarks I reckon , saying K/State has THE BEST PG -- -THE BEST SHOOTER -- -AND THE BEST ATHLETE in the Big Twelve this Season.- -Strong words Jerome-- -REAL strong words.- - question did you hit your head dude ?--- Did you fall and go BOOM ?== time will tell

@Crimsonorblue22 me too I've been kinda tardy this season and hated missing but they looked pretty strong last night. I think them playing this super rough non con schedule playing ranked team after team after team will help a lot - -I have no doubt we are making the tourney with our strength odf Schedule with who we have played and yet to play. Ranked teams almost every time out

Just got through watching our # 14 ranked Ladies Sweep # 10 TCU.-- -TCU beat us earlier in the year 3-1- tonight out turn.- --28-26 - -25-16-- -& --25-21

Ladies looking pretty good

Self has named Friday Night's starting five :-- -Peterson- - -Counsel----White---Rosario- --& Bidunga.

Not saying much but Coach has said going to be hard to keep Kohl out of the starting line up. I like the combination, and know there is going to be a lot of early tinkering but I would be willing to bete this has a good chance to start REGULAR Season

maybe if nothing else I'll be able to at least listen to it like with Arkansas

Has anyone heard or read anything about any kind of broadcast on this exhibition Friday?-- -I know the one against Arkansas was on over the Jay Hawk network when we played them.

@Jhawk69 I personally think our game against Texas @ Texas when w went in and beat them, the game Jarrod Casey's name became known. That was a huge game and really think was the start of our turn around. -- The game in Booth when we beat Oklahoma was a pretty huge game and very sweet. Two games that i think was very beneficial for our program and actually meant more to the program then K/State.

Now this weekend this will be a big game but for different reasons , time to put an end to the streak. Yet as far as being the biggest game of LL time at KU I just think the Texas game at Texas was much bigger.
The game Saturday will no doubt be big in ways- -- -breaking the streak and even more turning the tide even more with in State recruiting. we just kicked their ass for 2026 with in state recruits - -but typical response from their idiot fan bas of- - -well we wern't recruiting that kid or he isn't all that good, but yet before they committed to KU these kids were lights out. First one that really stunned the taters was JJ Dunnigan kicked them right square in the nads - -gotta love it.

@Jhawk69 Good luck , you don't have long to wait. Gives you plenty of time to get the eye appointment scheduled

@Jhawk69 I'm sorry it's gonna be OK really it is , just remember it's only a game and continue to breathe

@nuleafjhawk I'm sleeping great thanks.--- I don't live in the past. Were not playing any of those teams we have played in the last 16 years These guys can't live in fear and I know they are not. If we wanna live in the past might as well say we won or should of won for the last two years.

If we wanna live in the psst and shimmer & tremble hell we might as well not even play just tell them to have K/State name the score and we will call it good.

Therre is NOT ONE SINGLE PLAYER that would intimidate me or does scare me on that team. Jalen is just s good if not better them Johnson , he is the most over rated kid I'v seen in quite some time. What has he done that is that much better , head and shoulders then anyone else.-- Edwards is limited in play still not full speed by any means --They have played long stretch's of crappy ball
.
I think I will take my chances and let the game play out , , thank GOD we do have SOME that live in the present and not the past

@Jhawk69 Ahhh the , eternal optimist OUR chances are really good , I love our chances -don't lose to much sleep sweating about it

I think we will dee an end to the late night within the next five years , people losing interest

Mercy, Mercy I'm gettin to old for this stuff man GB wins 27- 23 over the Cardinals on the road. Parson was huge I can't do this guys lol

u

g

e I think he had three out of our five sacks Mercy I can't do this guys to old lol

Scrimmages are usually pretty ragged - ---just a bunch of free lancing/running up and down the court jackin up wild shots.

I quit going , was fun the first 4-5 years lot of attention on recruiting use to be a big tool from it.

Remembering the first couple ESPN was there or showed pieces because at the time it WAS a big deal, if I remember right Dickie V was there once not every Joe Blow School was doing this in the beginning and it started at.-- It's really just Blah now and reserving seats having them of limits for some is Bull Shit, now it's like for donors use to be first come- -first serve same way for BIG DADDY WARBUCKS as it was for you average hump your ass- sweat your butt off for forty hours to make ins meat FADDY come late oh well no sseat-- then no seat, just another example of trying to squeeze the every day Joe out. Hl half of the Arena is all reserved for Donors or what have you, screw that . these so called donors half of them sit during the game like that are an old couple watchin a tennis match. We score, go on a run they clap very politely a couple of times and then back to eating their crumpets.

I would much , much rather be surrounded by a bunch of wild , crazy , looney fans then that---let the opposition their in a hostile enviroment , was a time we would go and might as well forget it because you couldn't hear your buddy sitting right next to you.

Peopl here have mentioned wondering what has happened to our chant after we win in the waning moments of the game, used to be loud- --NOW- -you can hardly hear it and thats id if gets done at all. We are losing our edge, teams are not intimidated about playing here nearly as much We need to get rowdy/wild again let these fools know- -you in the Phog boys let them know they have no chance

@Jhawk69 Would be really nice to have a defense say like oh I dun Tech's maybe or possibly ASU'-- or Utah- ------- we need some guys who have ability or want to that's like I'm gonna rip your fricken head off , or like you really don't want to have that ball boy- -some guys just nasty be fricken aggressive instead of 11 guys made out of Swiss cheese
e.

OH I got an idea--- HEY DK heard Mcdonal's is hiring

Somebdy get a rope Lance lied supposedly Lordie have Mercy, Give me a Break, next thing you know he will be stealing chewing gum from the Concessions. My God things must be really slow if this is the best , most important conversation that can be brought up lmao

@rcjhdraft going to have some depth off the bench this Season too without a lot of fall off

OH it's going to feel awesome to be the Hunter instead of the Hunted. Let them go ahead and sleep on us- --- -I dare them , I think there is a big mis conception about our team this year across the Nation --but I'll wait till later , and watch it play out , I think we are going - - -TO --BE- ---JUST-- -FINE --- ----ROCK CHALK BABY

Guys , you know what ? When you look at our ladies volley ball record for the first glance you could think to yourself well -- -- - -they have had an eh season, they are 12 -- -7 - - -3 - --2 in Conference so ya under normal conditions that's just an average year

Then when you look again when you see that ALL of their losses have come to ranked teams and I think five of those losses have went the full five games - -that's pretty dam good, We do have a really good team. you just have to consider - --really young squad and a first year Coach and yet we have still done that well

KU as lost to these ranked teams : # 2 - - - # 8 ( two separate * 8 )- - - -* 12's again two separate teams )--- * 17 -- -- & * 18

We have beaten the * 15---- & * 23rd ranked teams, The Ladies have done just fine

@Jhawk69 lol. what K/State team have you been watching ? They are a VERY WINNABLE game, they have showed next to nothing with their very over rated QB. Johnson is an accident looking for a place to happen. Their program is a really bad spot right now. they are probably one of our better chances remaining for a win

@ReggieKansas Well dad gummit , I have a friend who moved out there I think he has a Nephew who lives out there I want to believe you Redge I trallly do but I just think MAYBE sucked up to much smog lol. I'm afraid your Nephew will never land here, the only shot w would hsve would be is if you left him alone. NOW if you would like for me to have a word with him- - -wouldn't charge you anything possibly ONE JAYHAWK DOLLAR LOL

@mayjay Buddy surely you ought to know THAT IS JUST NOT GOOD ENOUGH, We need and should be 36th AND , AND , AND TRIPLE TRIPLE from the kity's GEEZ get you head in the game lmao

@nuleafjhawk LOL , 2nd half . it's called making adjustments

@kjayhawks sounds about right. Tech will probably be close to racking up 700 yards of offense

@dylans Isn't it amazing how in a short amount of time how things change .Let's go back down memory lane when we used to have huge Beer busts when we actually win a game ? - - - - didn't happen a lot , & if we got real lucky and win two- -holy crap Katie bar the door , and now even when we win six -- seven games it's fire the Coach ROFLMAO. i lo ve side line Coaches who neve have or never will lose a game- --must be pure bliss.

SOUNDA likeit' maybe not quite over with Stokes Nike or not Afterall according to Joe Tipton. Says he thinks i is going to come down to between Ku & Kentucky

Tale of two halves for the defense, first they couldn't stop a cold with a runny nose. second half especially third quarter dominate. Farmer is right it is going to be ugly next Something's developing talented group Brikley , Todd Snd Alexander and such growing up. Third quarter was awesome, that hit by Dye WOW that's a hit'
itit.

Gonna be nice to have a off week between KU/KSU HOPING AT THIS POINT WE CAN ACHIEE A DECENT DOWL

If he doesn't end up re-classifying going to bee really har to keep him here

e that long. That's a long time for a verbal, good chance he bails.

Well to bas e missed on Tryan , but we have a pretty good class sitting up/ We landed Kinne , Trent -- -Then all signs for Adkins & if Bardwell re-classifies -- Bardwell is another top 20 player,

I imagine we will be finished with High School and probably concentrate for a couple of Portal I'll take it

Do we feel like we land Javon tomorrow ? Really hadn't heard much about him in recruitment not sure what time his commit is but tomorrow some time

Well read from TOS that the 2027 prospect , they are saying Javon Bardwell ? --will be announcing where he is going tomorrow. So if that's true must mean he is re-classifying ?= =final four Schools Louisville , Texas KU & USC I believe.

Interesting enough I see Tony Bland is the recruiter for Javon. I think it comes down to either Texas or KU

@BeddieKU23 Makes me tingle thinking of possibilities. would be awesome if some how Stokes did land up here anyway' slim probably but never say never with Bill. then too could be the 27 kid DOES reclassify , never know. Things are cookin and Bill not Playin

@Jhawk69 Flory won't bee coming back next year , he barely came back this year.

Now all we got to do is go for the clean Sweep come Sunday with Adkins, be a massive week

@BeddieKU23 Dang poor kid has had it rough , don't think he was going to see the floor a lot but still good guy. Medical redshirt
I think if things pan out for us he might transfer out anyways. Hoping for the best for him?

Boy did I ever screw this post up lol. I was confused SURPRISE LOL Hey I'm 71 years old give me a break- -I was thinking of Jamari McDowell lol

@TYOHawk Thank ya bud

I think perrys announcement is at like 12:30 right announcing on CBS sports right ?

@kjayhawks maybe wwe pulled double duty Saturday and then Sunday lol

I don't know for 100 % certainty if we are headed in a new direction or not but sure looks that way. I DO know one thing though Coach sure kicked me in the Ass about me thinking he could very easily retire at the end of this Season.

I just don't think with FP here this year and then with I've been reading and hearing about the possibility of what could be coming in next year. I just don't think he would put in this type of energy & effort if this was going to be his last. I think he has found renewed energy and ready to kick some ass and not bother taking names

@approxinfinity ya still here , everything is fine. do me a favor and let me know if you see any NFL defense at the local flea Market, cause you sure in the hell can't blame Jordan for that fiasco Sunday Night over 400 yards passing and 4 TD'S no INT

@kjayhawks The people who you talk about making up half the empty stadium , those are not true fans then---- they are what true fans call closet fans. You only see them when a team wins every game --that's a " CLOSET FAN "- -when the team wins out those types of fans will pull all their KU gear out from the moth balls try and work a KU shirt over their twice as large beer gut they have obtained since the last time they wore it and Boast about how OH YA I'VE BEEN A HUGE KU FAN FOREVER then when KU loses they run back and stuffs
that out dated extra small shirt back in the closet with a new supply of moth balls till next time lmao.

THAT'S not a fan = == = THAT'S a Bandwagon closet fan , Don't want them == ===don't need then = = =EOCK CHALK BABY

Well seen where we got kinney

@Jhawk69 WOW what a crazy statement Lmao ya I 'm sure that's part Coach L's pre game talk telling them to remember be determined dt's make sure we turn the ball over. The only question how the hell he gets that part of his speech in and still have time to tell them the defense has to remember to help the opposition make holes big enough you can drive a Mack truck through without even getting touched

@kjayhawks I heard today that Okie St fans was going to be pushing really hard for some guy named Snell I believe what his name was. Played for Okie St guess they want him

Question- --has anyone heard how Trent Perry visit go last weekend ?-- -Big weekend this weekend Maximo on campus.

How is people feeling about Kinney ? some fretting that because he is still visiting Arkansas and Coach Cal with NIL they might fly in and take him

oooops my bad I thought was a sports topic, I'll show my way out

@approxinfinity I,m not paying a dime more. Only thing I losing is my sports package. I don't need that dam NBA CRAO the MLB Network , The RedZone ya da ya da ya da. - -I still get ESPN - -ESPN TWO --FS ONE- --those three right there are the one's that carry most of KU's Foott Ball & Basketball then you always have TBS---- and TNT now- -then I have the over the air Channels- - -Then I still have my ESPN PLUS without paying anymore. That combination pretty well takes care of KU Football - -Basketball = - -- Volleyball------& Baseball for me. If it's noy on any of those then--- screw it I'll just listen to it on the Jayhawk network

As far as my Pro portion goes , My Packers , I get them almost every week on Fox or ESPN - - -if not then I just go to my Packers site and listen to the game with the GB announcers- --The Yankees I can catch them some on ESPN or TBS every now and then if not then EHH I'll be OK I'll just check the box score the next day-- --ROCK CHALK
