Kansas vs Duke Game Thread: • Nov 06, 2019 12:12 AM

(Bilas said 3 second call)

Kansas vs Duke Game Thread: • Nov 06, 2019 12:11 AM

How is that a 3 second call? We weren't even in our set offense.

Kansas vs Duke Game Thread: • Nov 06, 2019 12:10 AM

We can't have 2 bigs on the floor if we're gonna give up wide open 3s.

Kansas vs Duke Game Thread: • Nov 06, 2019 12:09 AM

Wow. we should play some d.

Bring on Cameron, Dukie V, hostile zebras and whatever other blue devil themed acoutrements ESPN can spin into their yarn. Lets Go!

@RockChalkinTexas lolol

@dylans I don't think it would take too much for Garrett to have a better shot than Tyshawn if his shot has improved. I don't think Tyshawn made a 3 in the whole tourney when we lost to Kentucky in the final.

@wrwlumpy tyty!

@wrwlumpy i usually thumbs up every post on threads you make like these but I hate Duke so much. :face_with_tears_of_joy: raincheck on upvote until your next post ?

Mitch • Nov 02, 2019 11:21 PM

@KirkIsMyHinrich good thoughts about Marcus needing a stretch 4 on the floor. I
still wish Mitch would develop a 3 ball.

Kelly Oubre on the other hand... amirite @RockChalkinTexas @Crimsonorblue22 ?

It seems like it's coming. No crazy.

Pitt State Game Thread • Nov 01, 2019 12:51 PM

This team is huge. This team can shoot. This team passes well. This team is athletic. This team has depth. Check. Check. Check. Check. Check

Pitt State Game Thread • Nov 01, 2019 11:09 AM

I haven't caught any of the exhibition games. Too much going on here and didn't want to spend money on watching half games against creampuffs.

I'm ready for Duke! Is our team ready for Duke guys?

My Nats. • Nov 01, 2019 01:37 AM

Thanks guys. I've been pretty sentimental about this team all day. Great group of people. Consumate team. Very happy for them. This one meant a lot.

My Nats. • Oct 30, 2019 04:50 PM

@dylans After the Nats started the season 19-31, they've had the exact same W-L at the Astros.

Max Scherzer, 3 time Cy Young winner, says the cortizone shot worked and his neck is feeling good. If we outduels Zack "Love Child Of Three-Way Between Star Wars Emperor, Jim Carrey, And BeetleJuice" Greinke, anything is possible!

Do we owe Beaty money? • Oct 30, 2019 01:15 AM

Seems Kansas doesn't want to keep paying Beaty. What are your thoughts about this?

Well it is offically transition time • Oct 30, 2019 12:58 AM

Worst Halloween of my childhood it snowed 12” on the 31st. Cancelled trick or treating until the following weekend. Boo

I thought there was some Halloween magic in place that prevented that. I don't ever remember snow or even heavy rain on a Halloween. (selective memory, I'm sure)

Dam Devonte G - - -nice start my man • Oct 30, 2019 12:56 AM

@ajvan I missed the boat. :-/ didnt expect others to jump on him like they did, being that he was a bench guy with Rozier ahead of him.

I'm weirded out by left footed kickers. Make me a believer, #46

Shouldnt we have been playing to other side of field to set up the lefty?

Texas tech • Oct 27, 2019 02:25 AM

Oh dear God lol

Texas tech • Oct 27, 2019 02:19 AM

Nice!

My Nats. • Oct 25, 2019 06:26 PM

@wissox ha. In the last decade, KU basketball has won as many NCs as Loyola. Ain't that right @loyolstud88 ?

Kenpom • Oct 25, 2019 02:44 PM

Flip a coin. Heads Kings, tails Grizzlies.

My Nats. • Oct 25, 2019 01:45 AM

@nuleafjhawk FS1 is replaying the game. Its in the 7th inning right now if you're interested. Just getting interesting ;)

My Nats. • Oct 24, 2019 10:42 PM

@nuleafjhawk LOL judging by the number of your blahs I see that you at least read what I said enough to realize that I made five points :)

My Nats. • Oct 24, 2019 10:14 PM

@nuleafjhawk woh woh woh. You just won a WS in 2017.

Ryan Zimmerman, Mr. Walkoff and face of the Nationals franchise since their return to DC, may be in his last year as a Nat and has never won a postseason series.

Did you think it was going to be easy?

Is there any shame in losing to a team that's red hot and hitting the crap out of the ball?

There's still time for the Astros to make this thing interesting. It ain't over til it's over.

@approxinfinity Mad props to the Nats! Their roll reminds me of the Sox run in 05. 8 in a row!

Yeah!! The team is playing for each other and it's a beautiful thing. Seeing Parra and Sanchez giving a laughing Strasburg a hug sandwich in the dugout says it all about how this team feels about each other.

Both Max and Stras got hit early then settled. The O has been special this year, and the starters trust they can get them back in it.

@BShark Thinking a team that has replaced Grimes with Moss, Dedric with De Sousa, and removed KJ and Charlie Moore from its bench is going to be the same defensively just seems lazy to me.

Hopefully a healthy Doke too.

Leaner, rim protectorish ... Can't wait to see that!

Kid has a wingspan long enough to push both nuke buttons. Really hoping it's block city.

@Marco my name's Bill Self and I'm here to say, didn't pay kids, no how, no way

Ohhh.... raPing. nm

The Nats are the team of destiny.... Until they arent!

I don't hate it!

Top Bill Self Replacement Candidates • Oct 13, 2019 11:06 AM

Bump @Marco

Doesn't it? I haven't read the law re pay for play. My assumption was that it provides a legal channel for corporate money to flow to athletes making the backchannels no longer necessary.

My Nats. • Oct 10, 2019 05:08 PM

Hoping for TB so we can stay east coast and my kids can watch.

I go back to my prior point - If we seem to know that shoe companies pay kids (the shoeco game), that it's such common knowledge, then Bill Self knows. Bill Self has clearly and distinctly denied any such knowledge. That would make Bill Self a liar of a quite high degree. Add to it the "integrity" comment by Self and then the "honesty and integrity" comment by Long. It is just reprehensible.

To play devil's advocate, we most certainly live in an "ends justify the means" world, and "today's pirates are tomorrow's admirals"

Also, we complained bitterly about Self's unwillingness to adapt earlier in his time at Kansas, playing guys that we didnt think had the ceiling to deserve PT. If I recall, this might roughly correspond to his time playing the likes of Jamari, Landen, Morningstar etc major minutes. Well, he complained about the system, complained about east coast media bias, and then.... He adapted! Just had to "get a few dudes".

Also does the passing of this legislation take the wind out of NCAA sanctions sails?
