@kjayhawks true true

WKRP in Cincinnatti • Jan 11, 2025 07:19 PM

Gosh i love moores d

WKRP in Cincinnatti • Jan 11, 2025 07:18 PM

AJ getting comfortable with that backdoor lob

WKRP in Cincinnatti • Jan 11, 2025 07:17 PM

Very nice AJ

WKRP in Cincinnatti • Jan 11, 2025 07:15 PM

@kjayhawks maybe in output thus far but seem like different mindsets and phenotypes to me. AJ is more capable of driving. Wingspan is longer. Rylen less streaky more compact shooter as catch and shoot guy, AJ can more create his own shot. Rylen seems more consistent and postive mentally.

WKRP in Cincinnatti • Jan 11, 2025 07:11 PM

If griffen is flat aj seems to have some life at both ends. More AJ please, for now

WKRP in Cincinnatti • Jan 11, 2025 07:09 PM

Hunter has no interest in contesting baseline drives

WKRP in Cincinnatti • Jan 11, 2025 07:08 PM

They are waiting for our drive and kick passes

WKRP in Cincinnatti • Jan 11, 2025 06:54 PM

So many additional offensive rebounds bidunga will have when he adds a little muscle

WKRP in Cincinnatti • Jan 11, 2025 06:46 PM

@kjayhawks we will be ok, cincy just came in juiced

WKRP in Cincinnatti • Jan 11, 2025 06:45 PM

We only have 1 year of shak moore right?

WKRP in Cincinnatti • Jan 11, 2025 06:43 PM

Yeah running him like a point forward

WKRP in Cincinnatti • Jan 11, 2025 06:42 PM

Lots of touches for KJ on perimeter thus far

WKRP in Cincinnatti • Jan 11, 2025 06:26 PM

For those about to Rock (Chalk), I salute you!

Lance is COOKING • Jan 09, 2025 11:12 PM

Is there any crossover in NIL between bball and football? Like a common pool? Showing my ignorance here. does the same agency handle all of KU NIL?

Lance is COOKING • Jan 09, 2025 11:10 PM

@FarmerJayhawk nice! I cant believe I have been excited about KU football for 3 years in a row.

Lance is COOKING • Jan 09, 2025 08:46 PM

@FarmerJayhawk ermmm i want a steam analogy update here. We need apples to apples.

Arizona St • Jan 09, 2025 08:45 PM

@Jhawk69 is that true? Maybe he hasnt put his roots down anywhere because he is being advised not to do so?

Arizona St • Jan 09, 2025 07:12 PM

This isnt MJ Rice or Udeh or Pettiford.

Storr has done things in a p4 conference.

It does make me a little anxious looking at his twitter tagline and seeing him saying for business inquiries heres my email… Feels like a kid who thought his trajectory was one thing and has his head in a lot of different places. 7 different schools, swag shop with his own logo. Probably distracted by fun stuff too.

Needs to shut all the noise down and just focus on basketball, if thats possible.

Arizona St • Jan 09, 2025 12:45 PM

@BShark much rather he stick around and contribute so i can justify picking up some sweet swag from the corner storr.

Arizona St • Jan 09, 2025 04:23 AM

@SlimShaddy54 if we can keep winning and the players that do get run perform, I dont see any reason why he would leave unless he has a bad attitude or getting bad advice. We are already into second semester. He has plenty of time to develop his potential and improve his stock and nobody would blink twice if he left at seasons end, even if sticking around would do him good.

Arizona St • Jan 09, 2025 04:07 AM

Yeah i mean Moore got 22 minutes and is ramping up. Dont see anything objectionable there.

Arizona St • Jan 09, 2025 04:02 AM

@patoh3 wow Shak doesbr get to +26 if he doesnt get minutes. Feels like he got the opportunity to make a big contribution. Cant be upset with that as a player.

Arizona St • Jan 09, 2025 04:02 AM

@SlimShaddy54 Bidunga is the key.

Arizona St • Jan 09, 2025 03:45 AM

I do agree we could have seen Shak the last 5 minutes, game was won and we languished a bit, but hey if Shak is injury prone i would rather keep him healthy

Arizona St • Jan 09, 2025 03:42 AM

@BeddieKU23 well bobby hurley doesnt seem into party favors

Arizona St • Jan 09, 2025 03:38 AM

@kuballin10 hard to argue with personnel usage this second half when we have wrecked them from start to finish.

Arizona St • Jan 09, 2025 03:36 AM

@wissox the EJ special?

Arizona St • Jan 09, 2025 03:34 AM

Really @kuballin10 i think the most important thing for this team, like most years, will be to go into the post season healthy. Hopefully that means Flory gets to wreck the B12 while we keep Hunter from snapping in half

I think the effort will all be there when we need it.

Arizona St • Jan 09, 2025 03:31 AM

@kuballin10 i dont know that rylan needs way more run. I think we are getting a healthy contribution from him but as @Texas-Hawk-10 has pointed out hes a catch and shoot role player.

Arizona St • Jan 09, 2025 03:28 AM

@DanR imo any time you are winning by double digits AND talking about bench players that need more time, you got good problems.

Nothing wrong with continuing to give minutes across the board to keep everyone hungry like you
said

Arizona St • Jan 09, 2025 03:26 AM

Not an offensive foul on hunter screen.
Awful call.

Arizona St • Jan 09, 2025 03:25 AM

@kuballin10 dajuan is fine. Shak can eat up some coit minutes and moore minutes in addition to dajuan breathers and get plenty of run.

Arizona St • Jan 09, 2025 03:22 AM

Shak Moore keep channeling #bifm and ball out!

Arizona St • Jan 09, 2025 03:16 AM

Jay Williams can go away and never come back.

Arizona St • Jan 09, 2025 03:05 AM

@wissox was wisconsins system easier for AJ?

Arizona St • Jan 09, 2025 03:02 AM

Foul on Dajuan on a step back 3 with 1.6 ooof

Arizona St • Jan 09, 2025 02:57 AM

@Crimsonorblue22 yea thats where my head went. He just seems frequently distracted. I wonder that about a lot of these kids, Timberlake, Vick, etc

Arizona St • Jan 09, 2025 02:53 AM

I am starting to think Storr has a focus problem more than an effort problem.

Arizona St • Jan 09, 2025 02:48 AM

The espn replay started whe it was 7-9. Did moore start?

Arizona St • Jan 09, 2025 02:44 AM

Seriously consecutive opposing dukey coaches and a dukey color commentator, barf.

Arizona St • Jan 09, 2025 02:42 AM

When Bidunga gets a little stronger on whatever nba team he is on next year, he can be ridiculous on the offensive glass.

Arizona St • Jan 09, 2025 02:37 AM

Losing to a Hurley. Double gross.

Arizona St • Jan 09, 2025 02:34 AM

Alright. Starting to watch from beginning now. Hopefully you wont be all doom and gloom by the time i catch up.

The KU Sports paywall • Jan 08, 2025 11:44 PM

Supporting journalism and the arts is important, but i wont be in this case. I dont blame them for having a subscription wall. Def feels less nefarious and uncertain than ad revenue, but i doubt those go away.

Central Flaw rid unh-uh • Jan 08, 2025 04:29 PM

Appreciate the civility in this thread. Differences of opinion AND differences of conversational styles, and yet we haven’t all cancelled each other and resorted to name calling. Well done. 1000 points to everyone.

Central Flaw rid unh-uh • Jan 08, 2025 04:21 PM

That might be a topic all to itself. 5th in the country in DRtg! How do yall like them apples??

Central Flaw rid unh-uh • Jan 08, 2025 04:20 PM

Btw, regarding “scoring on us easily” this team is much better on the defensive side than offensive according to kenpom. Im curious how that holds up.

Central Flaw rid unh-uh • Jan 08, 2025 02:22 PM

@kuballin10 if I look back at some of the rosters that overperformed during the “lean years” i am struck by how the sum was greater than the parts. I think Bill has that mindset always and values specific players higher because he believes the team operates better with them on the floor. What is debatable i think is how much of that is Bill Selfs gut, and how much is quantified or even quantiable from our vantage point, given that we dont have enough data to see how the replacement would perform with as many minutes. Bill has seen much much more of the replacements at practice than we have, but again i think we can speculate on how he assesses them in practice. Would love to see practice sessions.
