@AsadZ Always a possibility I reckon

@kjayhawks I actually think JD-6 will move on , he losing his boys, the main three receivers his running back -- think he moves on and they just try and roll the dice with Marshall

@AsadZ KU has some players that's for sure. Tough , Tough win today down 12 at the half , huge third qtr our scoring Auburn 20--7 . Nicols is really good , our 5 * right out of overland park --Ladies moved to 7-1 with the win in the Championship , couple of really nice quality this yr - -beating Pitt , and now Auburn - -Good job Ladies

I agree , just costly mistakes on the offensive side of the ball I mean your opening drive go right down stall out around the twenty and miss your field goal - - drive inside their 30 interception hit home run pass deep in their territory -- fumble , driving again interception -was right at or around 500 yards of offense but defense couldn't stop a cold-- really bad defensive effort

@AsadZ Better question is will Borland be back ? -That was a sad display , so many missed tackles , Baylor over 600 yards of offense- -just overall sad display today after the way they had played

Good thing they not playing here ? KC- --- snowed here in Topeka and ground white and 30 degrees

@nuleafjhawk he did get something , he got ejected lmao. just messin with ya bud , I hear ya

@nuleafjhawk I think the reason we didn't get the ball obviously or shoot FT's was because of Hunters flagrant two ejection

@nuleafjhawk They did call Brown foul BUT it was just a common foul then they tore into Hunter

Were playing really well, but Baylor playing well too-- they have won 5 straight- -Average defense though not nearly the type of defenses we have been up against lately

Something to think about. Over the last 19 contests against- -- Duke - -N Carolina - -& Kentucky - -we are 16-3- -not to shabby

@wissox Ya I heard that from Tommie , there are multiple ESPN people pushing Auburn should be the # 1 team in front of us. the Ol boy that pumps up all the sunshine of all SEC teams got his nose buried way to far up you know where , saying the same thing. It's ok rankings are nice for the fans to thump their chests about- - but we know only thing that really matters is who is left standing at the end of the year Right ? - -ROCK CHALK

Thank you for all you do buddy. Hoping you have a HAPPY THANKSGIVING-- you go eat to much , stuff yourself , feel miserable, but most of all live , laugh , and love Buddy. Enjoy that family, spend that quality time, and yet be safe.

Have a very Blessed day my friend.

Love the way Devin replied to some things . - -Devin said before the Colorado game- -We let our pads do the talking for us.

Devin respectable , class act, and really showed his loyalty when he chose to come play for us , as to when he could of had many other options , but he stayed home and has really been a huge piece to helping turn this program around. Thank You Devin a TRUE Jayhawk for life

Was said multiple times last night and then again today , Duke has the tallest team in the Nation ? pp Whaaa , I'm not sure that's right is it ?

Ha, been watching Arizona / Davidson, Like the commentators said never seen this before Davidson player didn't just lose ONE shoe but lost both shoe's lmao

Flory brings a lot of energy to the floor. Yes, for sure he makes some Freshman mistakes, so much bounce he gets caught being out of position at times, he wants to block everything, having said that I think he is going to be a pretty good player when it's all said and done.

I think he for sure is back for his Soph year, and unless he makes a HUGE jump he may even come back for his Jr year , how ever long it's going to be fun to watch him develop

I agree Hunter should of ben called for a flagrant - -but a flagrant 2 ? come on now , let's be real. First of all the kid from Duke like they said was a clear undercut , which could of caused injury to Hunter - -Hunter reacted , I had just said one of these times Hunter is going to get us in trouble and it's going to cost us BUT to be ejected think extreme flagrant 2--- think that's a little much.

Who knows though in the over all grand scheme of things might of ben really beneficial for us, seeing how the team pulled together even more. Some big plays by KU players after that stretch KJ hit like three big buckets, and really strong defense, Zeke hitting a big bucket when it seemed the ball bounced on the rim and finally in forever , Rylan hitting two huge buckets and making those two free throws late --

These guys showed up , some real toughness in a bad spot by losing Hunter -they showed me some toughness for sure last night. For me KJ's defense on Flagg last night was really good, and yet he did so many other things Juan stating KJ can guard 1-5 and yet 8 points ( ya I know )- -it was 8 points but at key time of game late 3 steals , 3 blocks , and 3 assists - - -- looks fine to me and yet we gonna have ( Haters gonna hate )

I will say this checking the box score , KU had 10 offensive rebounds this game -- dam when is the last time we have done that -- good job. -- KU out rebounded Duke against that taller line up another Good job-- now on to our next game -

Dam wish we could get Sauq healthy we need more back up for Juan. - -36 minutes last night

Don't care what anyone says - -KJ was a Man tonight. Eight points, big buckets in clutch time, after Hunter is ejected-- but Eight points , Three Blocks , Three Steals, and Three assists an incredible job on Flagg when he was defending him

Let's this sink in , I really think this could be huge later possibly when we face some adversity

@kjayhawks said in KU vs Duke Game Thread:

That was a gutsy win folks, a win to tell your kids about.
Sets
YES Sir, got some guys with Huge Sets

@BeddieKU23 said in KU vs Duke Game Thread:

Big win. That was a great 10 minutes without Hunter. Played small and found a way

Couldn't agree with you more. I think these guys might look back later on this game and this could prove just how strong these guys are. - -Fricken KJ & Juan showed huge leadership tonight in crunch time with out Hunter

Guys I think we witnessed a team with a lot of fortitude -guts and savy.- - They could of just wilted after Hunter got ejected but seems like they just said NOPE screew this were not letting this get taken - -HUGE win without our main man

Reach deep guys be men playing hard, mercy I'm to old for this

No matter how this turns out, you have to love how KU has responded- --Kj is pissed playing out of his mind, showing Sr leadership. -- AJ Zeke going to have to step up for sure

Ballgame

@BeddieKU23 ya I know --gonna cost us down the road at a critical time if we are not careful

Hunter has to stop that shit

Hunter has disappeared offensively

Dang who is guarding proctor ?

KJ big time help defense

KJ holds Flagg to two points in the first half--- but people say he can't defend, KU struggling KJ hits two shots and yet People want to hate

Watch out for Flagg to go off in the 2nd half. What he get in the first half 2 points ? - -KJ has done a good job on him

What was that Hunter ?--- -you knew Duke come back, in for a dog fight now

Juan playing well

Jump Flory Jump - - Jump Flory Jump lol

I'll take that start

@Texas-Hawk-10 said in KU vs Duke PreGame:

Now that more of the crowd is here, it's probably about a 65/35 pro Kansas crowd.

well that helps some anyways possibly

Coach just said Flory is fine , no limitations on him. Had wisdom teethe pulled but he is fine

@FarmerJayhawk Great- -seems like every yr always something or someone that can effect the roster

Dang U Conn goes down again-- - - 73-72 by Colorado hmmmm- - -they just got beat no excuses, Colorado would just not go away-- really tough game

I just don't get a good feel about this game tonight. Maybe if it was later in the year, I just think watching play so far this year Duke has played better- - so talented- - -Hope I'm wrong but could see high single to low double digit loss

Sorry to feel this way and again hope I'm wrong -their deeeep and very talented , I think they will take advantage of Hunters liabilities on our defensive end again hope I'm wrong , the one thing we have in our favor is they are young, but these aren't your typical Freshmen

I just think AJ & Rylan still haven't really settled in yet , just doesn't look like they still aren't really comfortable , makes a big difference in a game like this

The key in this would to be let Flagg get his but make the others work to get theirs don't let others have career days - -for sure hope I'm wrong

@kuballin10 said in Early season feedback on kuballin’s off season analysis:

@SlimShaddy54 agh that sucks to hear sorry man

I miss your all caps

ya it does, like i got spare change just laying around to go throw on another computer. Luckily was able to get a black Fridy deal.- yippee for me lol

Well seeing quite a few actually many , many pretty much wanting to burn Dean Miller at the stake. I sure don't know how I missed such a blatant non call. So many calling for Millers head, and how that he is a dirty player, and how KU and Leipold need to be investigated if he is Coaching these types of players. - -MY response ? - -is like what ?

How many people truly believe that Dean Miller is a dirty player ? - -how many actually think that this play Dean Miller blatantly /deliberately tried to end Shadur's Career with him hitting below the knees ?- I sure don't think that was Millers intent on that play. Now should there of been a penalty on the play? looking back and watching the replay-- -probably, probably should of been flagged , but to say it was intent to hurt Sanders, cause him to end his Career? - - come on, really ?

All I know is Dean is taking a beating on social media from multiple people and one idiot on his podcast say Coach L and KU should be investigated for Leipold teaching these kind of tactics of dirty play- -- sheez really?- So Coach teaches a bunch of dirty players ?-- ya, Ok let's run with that

Hurley being Hurley. listened to him post game and he was laying it on , saying for the ref to make that call at that point of the game was crazy. Saying that the Memphis player was making an half ass attempt to rebound the ball and Mc Neely had clearly takin the ball and he said again for the ref to make that kind of call at the point of the game was shouldn't of been called.

Well Danny boy here is a news flash for you , doesn't matter what point of the game you were in , doesn't matter if it's a minute after opening tip off , the closing seconds of the half , or the final minute of regulation, if the official calls the foul then it's a foul OR I see they are suppose to say OH wait we are in the Danny Hurly segment of the game and we are not suppose to call anything against U Conn now - ya that must of been what it is. If they see it as a foul , then a foul , is a foul , is a foul sorry Danny that's the way it is

Iowa St looking really salty again -gonna be really hard to beat these guys in Hilton. Brucie and his Auburn crew getting taking to the wood shed so far

Gonna be a really good game at eight tonight on ESPN 2 between Auburn and Iowa St- -see how Auburn handle ISU pressure

@Crimsonorblue22 I read an article this afternoon Coach said HiShaw was not with the team and that Daniel was dealing with a family issue outside the football program

@Texas-Hawk-10 ya not totally bare , do you think Jalen will come back?- - I really just don't think he will, Not sure what else he will do , just don't think he will make a NFL Roster , good College QB but - - -- - and with our in experienced receivers- I don't know just have to wait and see.

I just think Marshall will beat out Ballard in spring practice. Gonna be young and no game time but everything I've read and heard he is just another version of Jalen- - maybe a little better as time goes on , talented player was recruited pretty heavily. Mercy I don't know what's gonna happen.

@kuballin10 Cool, that makes me happy. - -No seriously my compute crashed, had to do all my sites over again, it's ok, this computer is much better I won't even say anything in caps-- -- just for you lol
