@DanR said in Fran Hate Us game chat:

Nine turnovers leading to 8 points for ISU so far. Difference in the game

Between that and our cold shooting it’s a miracle this game is t a blowout.

Fran Hate Us game chat • Feb 04, 2023 04:36 PM

Iowa state throwing their weight around and only has 2 fouls….

Fran Hate Us game chat • Feb 04, 2023 04:34 PM

@DanR one of those guys has to grab that ball.

Fran Hate Us game chat • Feb 04, 2023 04:34 PM

Anyone know what just happened?

Fran Hate Us game chat • Feb 04, 2023 04:34 PM

A three AND. Deflection.

Fran Hate Us game chat • Feb 04, 2023 04:32 PM

Still just down 2. Wild.

@DanR said in Fran Hate Us game chat:

Shooting 29.4%. Figured it was worse than that

Now do players not name JWILL.

@wissox said in Fran Hate Us game chat:

We've only made 2 shots inside the arc. That's not going to get things done

Getting crushed in the paint. ISU not going to let anything easy happen in there. And refs letting them play on both ends pretty much. Gottta match the aggression.

Fran Hate Us game chat • Feb 04, 2023 04:29 PM

First game in a while that isnt in the bonus at this point in the game.

Fran Hate Us game chat • Feb 04, 2023 04:26 PM

How was that not a fouls just now as kj got clobbered?

Fran Hate Us game chat • Feb 04, 2023 04:26 PM

@wissox wasn’t a foul on kev.

Fran Hate Us game chat • Feb 04, 2023 04:23 PM

How is this game close?

Fran Hate Us game chat • Feb 04, 2023 04:22 PM

@kuballin10 I’ll be surprised if he doesn’t take over this game at some point.

Fran Hate Us game chat • Feb 04, 2023 04:21 PM

@kuballin10 said in Fran Hate Us game chat:

Yesefu’s hand when he shot it went left that was so ugly. Why is Gradey not in?

Bricking threes on one end. Layups on the other. Just needs a reset. He will lock in at some point today. Just not yet.

@Jethro said in Fran Hate Us game chat:

is that 3 airballs now?

Strategic so that the fans can’t focus the air all chant on one guy. Solid teamwork.

Fran Hate Us game chat • Feb 04, 2023 04:19 PM

@DanR said in Fran Hate Us game chat:

ice cold except for Jwill

ICE COLD. like not even close.

Fran Hate Us game chat • Feb 04, 2023 04:18 PM

@wissox Austin Tx. You’d make a killing just walking a neighborhood revving that bad boy.

Fran Hate Us game chat • Feb 04, 2023 04:17 PM

Trying to get into passing lanes now. Hasn’t worked yet but it’s a good sign.

Fran Hate Us game chat • Feb 04, 2023 04:16 PM

@RockChalkinTexas yeah hoping I can get my chainsaw working.

Fran Hate Us game chat • Feb 04, 2023 04:13 PM

@RockChalkinTexas I lost a couple whole trees. Split down the middle. Clean up is my afternoon plan.

Fran Hate Us game chat • Feb 04, 2023 04:13 PM

@BShark nah. I like the free throw line jumper. It will fall enough.

Fran Hate Us game chat • Feb 04, 2023 04:12 PM

If this team could figure out how to start a game they’d be pretty good.

Fran Hate Us game chat • Feb 04, 2023 04:07 PM

Only down 6. Feels like 15.

Fran Hate Us game chat • Feb 04, 2023 03:47 PM

@wissox technically one is a thread and the other is a chat.

Other games • Feb 04, 2023 02:43 PM

I find it interesting that college game day is at Duke North Carolina despite both teams being unranked. I wonder when the last time those teams played when bothe weren’t ranked and I wonder the last time game day went to a location for a game between unranked teams. Both have to be pretty rare. Feel like the cyclones could have had one today but basically every game in the big 12 could have a good case for hosting game day this year.

@Texas-Hawk-10 does Kevin have eligibility?

KJ Adams • Feb 04, 2023 01:29 AM

@mayjay this one alone is worth the $1.99 a month offer I got.

KJ Adams • Feb 03, 2023 07:33 PM

Had heard some of this from a friend who worked at that private school mentioned. But man, his mom seems cool.

Sunflower Showdown Redeux • Feb 03, 2023 06:50 PM

@kuballin10 I do think there’s a chance KJ slides over to the 4. He’s such a good passer and defender. He’s show some driving capabilities and we all know self is not shy about playing non-shooters. Especially if he’s paired with Zach who has the green light from 3, I see some potential for that line up to get some time. We saw it for a brief moment during either the Kentucky or kstate game. Can’t remember which.

I think a big part of self trying to will Juan into becoming a threat from 3 is to allow him to be more flexible with KJ. KJ is such a unique piece with his strength, speed and lateral quickness o just don’t see him coming off the floor for extended minutes. At the same time, Udeh, Zach and zuby are going to HAVE to be played as they continue to develop.

With JWill, Kevin, and Gradey all likely gone next year there’s definitely an opening at the 3/4 wing spot and Bill is already confident that KJ can guard that position and switch 1-5 so to me it’s his to lose next year.

Top 10 Match-up On ESPN+ Game Thread • Feb 01, 2023 07:19 PM

@BeddieKU23 to me it’s not about calling it tight or letting them play. It’s about being consistent. And that’s what EVERYONE should have a gripe with. The same play could be made on one side of the floor then the other with different calls made each time. Sometimes it went KUs way (early) sometimes it went KSUs. But how are players supposed to adjust to the way a game is called if it’s wildly inconsistent? The foul on the rebound at the end of the first half where Jalen got free throws was terrible. He also got checked at half court on fast breaks multiple times with no call at all. And then there were the 6 straight possessions where all KSU had to do was drive and fall down and it was a foul. Impossible to know what is and is not a foul in the games I’ve watched. It’s a hard job, no doubt, but it’s be nice to see something change when everyone agrees it’s not going well.

Sunflower Showdown Redeux • Feb 01, 2023 04:17 AM

@kuballin10 Nowell got some points but super inefficient. Lots of bail out calls on drives. CLAMPS from Juan.

Other games • Feb 01, 2023 03:21 AM

Alabama responded well to losing to OU. 101-44 helps the old analytics.

Sunflower Showdown Redeux • Feb 01, 2023 02:13 AM

70 free throws. Cool.

Sunflower Showdown Redeux • Feb 01, 2023 02:11 AM

Juan in his bag.

Sunflower Showdown Redeux • Feb 01, 2023 02:07 AM

Anyone understand that chant from the crowd?

Sunflower Showdown Redeux • Feb 01, 2023 02:06 AM

Why was Gradey on Johnson?

Sunflower Showdown Redeux • Feb 01, 2023 01:50 AM

Kj is such a good passer.

Sunflower Showdown Redeux • Feb 01, 2023 01:48 AM

Bobby back??

Sunflower Showdown Redeux • Feb 01, 2023 01:46 AM

Kj at the 4?

Sunflower Showdown Redeux • Feb 01, 2023 01:37 AM

@kuballin10 rice has guarded someone in me time so far this year. At least joe puts pressure on the ball.

Sunflower Showdown Redeux • Feb 01, 2023 01:23 AM

@approxinfinity he’s tall.

Sunflower Showdown Redeux • Feb 01, 2023 01:22 AM

Refs sending a message. Don’t guard.

Sunflower Showdown Redeux • Feb 01, 2023 01:18 AM

If anyone drives, it’s a foul.

Sunflower Showdown Redeux • Feb 01, 2023 01:17 AM

Red show.

This was supposed to say ref.

Sunflower Showdown Redeux • Feb 01, 2023 01:16 AM

Red show.

Sunflower Showdown Redeux • Feb 01, 2023 12:59 AM

@DanR said in Sunflower Showdown Redeux:

KU leads by 12 over the cats and the zebras

Refs probably a net 0 that half. We got some calls early and then that last one. Stay tuned.

Sunflower Showdown Redeux • Feb 01, 2023 12:57 AM

Wish I knew what was and was not a foul.

Sunflower Showdown Redeux • Feb 01, 2023 12:56 AM

Probably not gonna zone is now. But not a bad timeout for sure.

Sunflower Showdown Redeux • Feb 01, 2023 12:54 AM

Zach keeping up some decent d.

Sunflower Showdown Redeux • Feb 01, 2023 12:53 AM

@BShark Jalen trying to make sure everyone knows he’s better.
