@FarmerJayhawk said in Okie St. Pokie Game:
Still Bean
Toughing it out. - - they werre saying maybe if Oklahoma st hadn't scored on their lasst drive then maybe Vasko -- but with them scoring Bean toughing it out
I'm ellin ya if Devin Neal doesn't get Big 12 offensive player of the week - -then something is majorly wrong
This game isn't over if Bean doesn't come back in
They reporting Vasko putting helmet on and Offensive people coming up to Vasko - -looks like he will be coming in
Wilson & Vasko warming up
Bean in blue tent they said after taking that hit at the 3
Bean is hurt
@FarmerJayhawk said in Okie St. Pokie Game:
474 total yards through 3. Decent.
Dam I knew we was rolling it up but didn't realize that much - - I Likey
Dam Devin yuo go boy lol - - -like the KU Network was saying also too though good to see Ky finally get some positive touched 3 carries of 5 yards each- the best he has done - -but guess he has been hurt a lot of the yr
Actuall we should have 37 - - just didn't punch the 2nd drive in - -but I'm takin it
@FarmerJayhawk said in Okie St. Pokie Game:
Jason Bean is going to shorten my life by a few years
I can't afford for him to shorten mine - - I'm an old man lol
Man I would take ,e about 5-6 Jarrod Caseys - - just solid
@BShark said in Okie St. Pokie Game:
One half away from going bowling!
I'll still feel a lot better with the final seconds tick away lol
I still think we will see Gunner Gundy sometime in the 2nd half - - maybe start
@nwhawkfan said in Okie St. Pokie Game:
Impressive. Can't believe how crappy the OSU defense looks though.
Now all we need to do is tighten up our own D on the edges.
Okie State is dead last in the league in Defense. - -which works for us lol
Just what we needed - - - TD - - and then Big 3 and out Defensive stop
I have me a little JASON BEAN please - -as Jason says - -CYA
penalities , penalities , penalities killin us. - -tempo , tempo , -tempo - -that looked ugly
Hell run the edge have bean run that edge
Gunner Time
Time to move the ball down the field - -penalty hurt us last time
@FarmerJayhawk said in Okie St. Pokie Game:
Keep. Running. The. Ball.
Coach - - HOT. - -he saying Thomas was set
@FarmerJayhawk said in Okie St. Pokie Game:
Good lord that sucks for Lonnie.
ya look kinda bad - -just getting ready to come back from off week and now this
Mercy - - Are we redy to watch Gunner Gundy ? - -Watch next time out - -your gonna see him
Got to stay after them on D
Oh ya that's a nice start - - To the House
@FarmerJayhawk said in Okie St. Pokie Game:
@jayballer67 west side looks really full
ya I see that and about All I see is where the band isn't at the present - -vey close any ways
Has anyone heard anything about what the attendance is looking like yet? - - 1/2 full - - 3/4 full ?
Let's just hope that the fans get to thinking that just because Spencer Sanders is not going to play that this is a Automatic Win for Ku. - - We have our back up QB also - we haven't gotten to that point yet
I just don't want to be checking the schedule and reading KU at Gonzaga, game time 10:00 Central time like on a Monday night or something.
If we do expand like sounds pretty likely at some point and don't really think that far off. - -If we end up with the 4 corner Schools Arizona -- -Arizona State - -Colorado --& Utah - -your gonna get that same thing Gonzaga or not. - -So if were gonna do it with Arizona then for sure might as well with Gonzaga
Oklahoma beat up just like us. -Found this off their board today just now.
Sanders QB - -OUT - - Bray WR - - OUT - -Harper Safety- -OUT - --Woodland OL - -OUT - -Brayden John WR - - OUT - -Hutton - -PUNTER - - OUT - Think their RB name is Robinson ? - -Probble
They mentioned Bean starting for KU & Daniels going to go through warm ups - see how he feels
They said Rangel & Gundy split reps this week BUT Rangel might get the start.
@BShark said in The 5 spot:
@jayballer67 It's in large part because we only had two guys in that starting line-up even interested in/capable of scoring much. It was not a good/sustainable line-up at all. Doubt we see it again.
very true & hopefully not
Call me crazy but I actually feel pretty good about this game tomorrow. - -Coming off an off week , a chance to heal a little - - Okie State is really banged up from what their boards are saying. - KU healing getting some players back.
True our Defense STILL pretty bad , we rank 9th in the league in defense - -in total yards BUT guess who ranks 10th in the league ?- - Okie State is dead last in defense.- -Sanders may play - - -may not if he does play good chance not 100 % - -bum shoulder taking a risk playing him -- he gets hit a couple of times and has even been brought up on their boards about this. Seems like they having trouble running the ball
Total defensively - -KU total yards allowed 439.1 ---Okie State total yards - -455.3 . - - offensively Okie State total d 435.6 - - KU total yards - - Okie State Scoring at 39.1 ppg - -- KU- - 38.0
Couldend up a track meet- lots of scores. Yet IF Gunner Gundy has to go - I think benefits us , - again coming off bye week - -playing at home - -hopefully good crows,- -I just think we got a pretty good shot - -we shall see
@Crimsonorblue22 said in The 5 spot:
@BShark didn't gradey start 2nd half? Wilson shot us out at the beginning, to quick. Guess we have to disagree. Glad we started pressing. Won't be that easy from now on. Bet we work on screens but not much time before mon. Let's hope roberts can get them to start better.
I agree early in the game Jalen was pressing. - -I think maybe his thought process was early when we fell behind like 21-6 - -he has in his head that this was one of those times this year where he thought he needed to step up and provide leadership role - - kinda try and put the team on his back, IF that was his thinking I can understand , yet I think he came down and took like possibly 5 straight shots- -and forced shots at that.
He was actually hurting us more then helping at that stage of the game. - -I think Jalen wants to be the leader for the team this Season - which is not a bad thing but just has to realize when to temper things a bit
@drgnslayr said in The 5 spot:
It was such a "newbie" game. Wow! All those first half nerves were hilarious. I'm almost positive a junior high school team would have taken an early lead on us.
The competition at the 5 will continue. None really grabbed me enough to give a thumbs up. I did notice how they were all trying to keep up with the speed of the offense.
What sticks out in this game is Self's desire to run!
All of our 5 candidates are going to have to realize they can't be "ball and chains" out there... slowing down our team pace. From what I saw, KJ holds the lead with speed!
VIEWS OF THE GAME:
Gradey stuck out to me! Wow! That kid has an amazing shot! Great verticality, great form, super quick release... I can't think of anyone we've ever had that had a stroke that clean as a freshman! He's going to take some lumps this year, but he is going to get plenty of PT and will be making some amazing plays!
McCullar is the real deal! 5 steals... and almost another 5 steals. When he is out there it seems like we have 6 defenders! He was the guy that flipped our lousy slow start into a big win! He started the charge on defense then others sped up and played better defense, too! If I was to give out a game ball for this game it would go to McCullar!
JWil showing more scoring aggression. Many times last year he had the rock and was driving and pulled out... now he tries to finish more. It's a good sign and I expect him to average some big numbers this year!
Bobby has to stay healthy! His scrap should earn him plenty of minutes! His game is still untapped and he can be huge for us this year if he stays healthy and builds off his PT.
Dajuan played it right! Only 6 points but 10 assists! How many games will we lose this year if he puts up 10 assists?
Rebounds are in question! No one got more than 4 rebounds. I get it... this year will be a "team rebound" theme. I'm okay with that but hey, we only had one more rebound than Pitt State! It's hard to send everyone to the boards on defense if we plan to be a fast break team! ANSWER: We need a big that will dominate the boards!
Your spot on about Grady , and that's what we as fans have to keep in mind.- Like you say Grady gonna take some lumps -so later this year he hits a wall - gotta remember he is a Freshman , with a showing like he put out last night isn't going to help him any as far as fans expectations go lol - -he is human - -just got to be there to support him not get down on him - - and it will happen. Other teams start keying on him if he keeps showing like he did. - Spot on guy
@Texas-Hawk-10 I've been reading OSU boards daily this week checking on Saunders to see what's being said. - -Prety quiet , Gundy said he is fine and will play tomorrow - -and yte hearing all kinds of other rumors. Guess he has been playing hurt for awhile and just taking a lot of beating. - their fans talkig about how they have no running game how their secondary is getting exposed and how many players they have hurt.
Sounds good but just lips moving - -I personally think Saunders plays or at least starts. See how effective he is a different story - even when he has been in the passing has been on again - -off again according to their people.- -I think to there is at least a 50/50 chance of seeing Jalen - just hope he doesn't rush back and screw himself up worse. Think this might be our only chance to ge that 6th win - -slim chance with Texas Tech maybe - we shall see
@FarmerJayhawk All talks are a significantly lower payout to Gonzaga due to no football and their reduced earning potential. Crazy that as horrid as KU football has been and likely will continue to be (Lance is great, but he’s at most a 10 year blip) it has more value than basketball.
As for Huggy - Gonzaga played half the big twelve a couple years ago and whooped us all! Lol. They would do fine.

Ya Gonzaga would do well, like is reported reduced payout - -read an article off their site today talking bout how even though football is what makes things go saying would be vey interesting to se exactly how much Gonzaga in the Big 12 would move the TV needle - -Bottom line it would move it just fine. - The advantages for the Big 1 picking up another time zone improves recruiting a great deal getting us more into West coast kids even further- -just improves the dominance of the league. - Just feel the positives out eeigh the negatives by some amount
@Crimsonorblue22 said in Gonzaga?:
Huggy not thrilled. He said zags would have a tough time playing in our league😂
LOL love to see them try
@FarmerJayhawk said in Gonzaga?:
@jayballer67 not me. What are Zag’s basketball media rights worth? $5m per year maybe? That would mean each Big 12 team would take a $2 million haircut just to play Gonzaga once per year, plus the added expense of traveling non-revenue sports to Spokane. No thanks
I'm 10000 % in - -you

I'm 10000 % in - -just helps recruiting in the 3 time zones - -they take a reduced payout for years - -just like Memphis & San Diego St - tossing huge numbers our way trying to become members - -ready for the challenge
@BShark said in Pitt State Gorillas Game Thread:
@Jethro Pettiford is clearly the back-up PG. He needs to be willing to shoot to get much time next to Dajuan imo.

Couldn't agree more buddy - - Bobby needs to play- --just stay healthy
Coach Self said he doesn't know what he is going to do Monday - -said maybe play Golf , I guess he said he won't even be in the Office on Monday
@FarmerJayhawk said in Pitt State Gorillas Game Thread:
Did someone give Gueldner some happy pills? Dude never has anything good to say about KU (it’s out of love, obvs) but is pretty satisfied tonight
I heard at half time Jeff hada written a book - -was talking but didn't realize he had Cancer and had been through his Divorce
@kuballin10 said in Gonzaga?:
@Jethro this is a no brainer. Any fan against it is an idiot
I'm with ya - -I think if we have the chance to add them - -we ADD THEM. I dunno maybe just have some people a little afraid of more stiff competition
My mistake just heard them say KU with 19 steals not 17
Well guys things I learned from this 1st contest.- -1: -- Our DEFENSE is going to help us -- - A LOT this season. - - Yes I know it's Pitt State but 27 turnovers - - KU with 17 Steals. Ended up hitting 40 % from the three.
2.nd :- -I think we found out probably Grady Dick looks like the real deal - -complete player , looked pretty dam calm -- smooth.
3rd: - Our 5 spot, to me if we are looking for more of scoring option -I think Zach is our guy - -he just looks so much more fluid. KJ good ball game - -gonna take some time for our other two, BUT like I said if were going to ty and get more out of our five - - think has to be Zach.
Other players looking decent , thought Bobby played a really solid game - - Kevin did well. We might take some lumps early , gonna take a little time , but think we gonna be ok.
This should give usa chance to get some early practice defending the 3. - - Boschee said they are a team that wants to put up alot of three. - -work on that tree defense
@BShark said in Pitt State Gorillas Game Thread:
2 hours away. We might be starting 2 bigs!
Do we have 2 bigs that are P-5 quality starting Bigs ? - possibly Zach & Udeh - - Zach & Zuby that's mine lol if we go that route - got a feel about Zuby might surprisw
So how many tv sets would watch Gonzaga/ Kansas, Gonzaga/Houston, Gonzaga/Baylor? This is Marke
DUH - - - - let's see now- - -- ummm - -- ummm--- ummmm - - ok I got it --- - -A BUNCH ! ! 1 ---can you imagine - - Classic match ups.
1st of all you would have your fans of these Schools Baylor - - Gonzaga - - Ku - -Texas Tech - - Houston. Then even for the Casual Basketball junkie that just enjoys being able to kick back and watch some really good ball from the Nations top Conference - -it would be rocking. - -would be a huge pick up
