Dave has to play more again he can have a big day
time for some eperation - -shut these guys down. the longer they hang around - - - not good
Think we need Dave in , really think could be a big day if they play him
both teams hot out of the gate. - -KU 4 -6 - - Miami 4-7 - - good offense ?- - -or no defense ?
we got to take care of the ball. All this about Miami turning you over -control the ball - - control the game

This is our game. We are the better team. Nobody on miami scares me. We execute, bring the toughness, and dictate the terms of this game, and we advance.
LEET'S DO THIS - -really tired of hearing Miami and upset
@BeddieKU23 said in Miami Hurricanes Game Thread:
Nice little story about Ochai on cbs. Only took all day for anyone to talk about KU
Great Story on our boy - LET'S DO THIS -- -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
Money rolling in on Miami - - time to shut these people up - -still no respect for KU , what the hell is wrong with these people ? - - - -just heard on the Radio Miami now up to 67 % rolling in on Miami - -betting line is down to 5 1/2
Time to shut em up guys. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
There is nothing wrong with Charlie Moore - -thing is he just wasn't a fit at KU - lots of players across the Nation like that - -players want the School but just doesn't work. - Example Quentin Grimes - - he was terrible here , does that mean he was a over rated player /no good ? - NO transferred to Houston had a really good Career
Sometimes players just find themselves in a wrong situation or maybe just the wrong time. - Just so happens Charlie was here at the wrong time and then in limited minutes really just didn't show. - Has done really well finally at Miami . I feel pretty sure Charlie will show today - doesn't mean they will win BUT just because things didn't work here that he is over hyphed/ or what ever All kinds of reasons players transfer
Hell look at Jalen L. -not a super player but a very solid player/role player here. - look at where all he has been - -Depaul - Illinois ? - - Iowa State now here. lots of moves - - doesn't mean he isn't a solid player , but to say Charlie is over hyphed and all just not true

@Jethro You underestimate Charlie Moore. All-ACC defensive team, and Honorable Mention All-ACC. 9 assists on Friday to 3 TOs, and actually (at 5' 11") averaging more rebounds (2.7) than TOs (2.1) this season. Everyone other than our disdainful fanbase takes him a lot more seriously.
Disdainful fan base - - I like that - - I really do

Call it a hunch...a feeling...but I think we're going to shoot better today:

Doesn't have anything to do with this clip but I do believe KU just might have a better shooting day today -- I dunno just got a gut feeling. - -- OR could be something I ate last night lol
@stoptheflop said in "WHEN HE'S ON THE COURT, IT'S DIFFERENT":
Quite a few fans are calling for Remy to start and get 35 minutes against Miami. We know that isn't going to happen, but Remy deserves it. Also, lots of fans and writers are talking about Waardenburg and that KU has no answer for his 3s. First, Waardenburg only averages 9 points a game for the season. He does shoot 3s at 42%, so I hope KU defenders at least try to guard him. Waardenburg only took 9 shots in 35 minutes last game and 7 were 3s.
6'5" Sr. McGusty is on a hot streak scoring 27 against IState. McGusty averages 18 points a game and hits 36% from 3.
One thing to note, Miami had 0 bench points last game. Only 3 bench players were in the game for a total of 17 minutes and only took 4 shots. Their starting 5 is who KU worries about. Yes, there will be a lot of attention by the media on Charlie. I sure hope Charlie stays the Charlie we know and doesn't become a hero today. Query: Will Ochai and/or Braun break out of their slumps and give us a chance today?
Hopefully Christan AND Ochai BOTH show up today - - all hands on deck -- Ochai just needs to see the ball go through the hole a couple of times early , think he is missing a little confidence right now. - Get a couple to drop - you will see Oach that played so well throughout the year
Guys just a little FYI , a couple of pretty cool little short video clips from the WIBW web site while covering KU in the tourney one is - -the video talks ell Oachi talks about how this years team is playing for the 2020 team it has Devon Dotson in it and Oach talking about this year teams tourney run is for them
Then they have a short video clip about how KU has this rug they take with them and /or had it in the locker room , they have had it for 20 years kind of a superstitious rug/ good luck thing really cool hearing about it - -you guys ought to check these out pretty cool off WIBW

Arkansas needs to rain threes and crash the boards. Watched the first half. I can't stand to watch Duke play any more than that, so I'll just follow the score for the rest of this one.
me too
Well think we see how this is gonna turn out -Arkansas just doesn't match up
@Zabudda said in Elite 8 Chat:
My wife is a big Razorback fan. She said if they meet the Jayhawks one of us needs to go somewhere else to watch!
Lol , that's funny. Anytime KU is in a close game or like that - - the wife says well she gonna run to Walmart - - she knows not a good place to be here when it one of those one possession games lol

This is TBS
I realize that - - I'm talking about ESPN anouncers on ESPN - all it is DUKE - - DUKE -- DUKE - - - K - - K - -K the hell with that sick of it
@wissox said in Elite 8 Chat:
I wonder if these announcers know how many people just despise K and Duke?
they don't give a flying dog's rear
DAM I am soooo sick of how far ESPN has their nose buried up K's and Dukes Ass -- Then commentators trying to bury their nose just as deep - - -sick of it
KU should have a huge advantage tomorrow on the boards if they focus. -- Miami terrible rebounding only averaging 30.5 rebounds per - - - - KU averages 37.4 rpg. - - KU averages 78 points per -Miami 74.8 - - 3 pt shooting is a wash
@Zabudda said in Elite 8 Chat:
Both teams missed a ton of open looks.
Can we get out of a scoring slump? Don't know what's up with Och but 4 or 5 treys and a couple of Ka Bongs we might run away from the Hurricanes.
Oachi just needs to see he first couple shots fall - - get some confidence back- -We need Christan to put up better numbers - we can't have both not scoring the ball

he came back out. they was talking about him climbing the ladder -- -no way is he climbing that ladder
You shoot 1-20 from the 3 and you only score 40 points for the ENTIRE game - -that's not gonna cut it - - - - - ooops my bad Houston sored 44 points

Villanova might not have Moore in the FF....
may not - -didn't look to good
Villanova Wins- - - -Villanova Wins - - - Villaaaaaaanova Winsssssssss-- Ain't great - LOVE IT
DAM - I do not want to play Houston- - they would destroy us on the boards. - -I have sen it happen already this year don't care to see it again. - -TCU- - -Kentucky - -no thank you
Ugly Ugly ball game. Hoston much more aggressive going for rebounds 2nd half
Actually the 1st half of this game looks a lot like the first half of our game last night. - -Neither team can throw it in the Ocean , just feel Villanova should be up big , but just like KU having hard time making shots
@Woodrow said in Elite 8 Chat:
I think KU would rather play Nova as well. Houston is really good.
And we know our history with Villanova lol
@mayjay said in Winning Strategy to Bring Home a Trophy...:
@jayballer67 Miami turned it over 4 times, 3 times, and 14 times in their 3 games.
7 times in two games is pretty dam good. - Iowa State turned it up on them
@benshawks08 said in Elite 8 Chat:
@jayballer67 which team has the fewest 20-30percent three point shooters likely to go off on us?
I think that would probably have a tendency to favor Houston

I'm back in worry mode.
I'm glad we advanced... but last night should have been a blowout.
I am thankful we have a group that doesn't freak out when punched in the face... and this has saved us all year long and again last night.
But here we were... a BAD BALL game... slugfest down to the wire. Maybe we can win 3 more games like this... I just don't see this as the best strategy to go.
I think we influenced pace last night because we seemed happy keeping it slow. Self had given us a headsup mentioning BAD BALL before this game.
I see we are capable of winning a slow or a fast game, or a game with it being mixed. I get that... and we have made it this far. I'm grateful.
From here on out are we just going to run mostly halfcourt offense?
Can we go ahead and plan that Och isn't going to be a real factor on offense from here on out? Has he ever put up big offensive numbers in March Madness? Are you really an "All-America" if you never step up in March? I don't care if he goes 2-24 in a game... put up the damn shots, son!
I appreciate Wilson's game yesterday... He never stopped fighting on both sides of the ball. But I'm calling us "The University of Remy" from here on out!
So how come we can't have a successful Remy, CB, Och and David in the same game? It just looks like they're coasting. I heard about Self constantly pleading with them to man-up!
Wilson doesn't count on being hot or cold... he just hustles and that gives him a double-double.
I hope we luck out and continue to draw low seeds. Not likely in the FF. I have little doubt in this Miami game... 38 minutes of whatever... it all comes down to the last 2 minutes and I hope we shine at the end!
If we win the NC playing 3 more games of BAD BALL, I will consider getting BAD BALL tattooed on my body!
If KU goes to the Final Four, the semi final game will be a bad ball game regardless if it's Houston or Villanova because those two teams play at a snails pace. Miami could very well be another rock fight game because they're not super quick, not as slow as Providence but definitely not a fast team. They also don't shoot a bunch of 3's and don't turn the ball over much so KU may not have a lot of opportunities to get out an run.
I think I saw a stat in their game with Iowa State that in their first two game Miami hd only turned the ball over THREE TIMES
@BeddieKU23 said in Elite 8 Chat:
Big Houston and Arkansas fans today
Not really sure who I want actually between Villanova and Houston. Both are gonna be a Bear , Hoston so aggressive on defense and kill it on the Boards. I think I would almost rather play Villanova , although they are the best free throw shooting team in the Nation- toss up really to me
Just scrolled across another site not neccessarily just fell upon it. It too has KU as the favorite now. -MGM BET - has this : - -KU at plus 275-- -- Houston plus 350- -Duke plus 400 --- Villanova plus 600 - - North Carol -plus 600- -- Arkansas- -plus 1000- - Miami- -Plus -2500 -then St Peters - -Plus 4000
Also ESPN ha KU ith the best Chance - -has : - -KU -- , Duke - -Villanova - -Houston -- North Carolina - - Arkansas --Miami - - & St Peters.
Wish I felt as confident , got some really good teams left. - -Houston , -Dike, - -N Carol - -Villanova all kinda scary. - -Thing is we really haven't play a really solid game in the tourney yet, in a way that's a good thing shows we know we can play a lot better . - Thing is we have JUST GOT TO gte Oahi and even Christan we have to get their production- -w can't win this title without them

plain and simple if we play like this Sunday - -we will ge beat. just got to start shooting the ball better.
Oach has to get his act together, that's bad enough but when you have Oach Christan AND Dave playing like crap -we have to get this guys into the game. - -I say we play Miami
What do you think they'll do next game? I think they'll make it a point to have better games. I think they know that better than we do. I am not going to start doubting them anymore. They've made the Elite Eight- great chance we'll make it to the Final Four. Let's give this team their props.
No I'm not doubting. - -Simply stating and I don't think you would find a single person around that wouldn't think they have to play better. they got to shot the ball better and Christan and Oach have to show

Dave sucks
0-2 shoot 3 turnovers 1 block and stupid fouls
Get fricken Mccormack out of this dam game - - maybe he can hand out the water without screwing that up
Well Dam - now you have given them hope. You have got 3/4 of the arena cheering for them AND your playing just like warm dog poop. this shouldn't even be within 15 and here we re at 7.
The refs are getting caught up in it making rap calls, now watch they gonna come down and start draining 3's now your in a mess
@approxinfinity said in Friars vs Hawks S16 Game Thread:
Ochai looks afraid of the ball. Good thing we got plenty of guys who want it
His confidence is shot right now
We need to come out with a quick hit to open the 2nd half let them no - - no chance , I think Oach's confidence pretty shaken in his shot right now
@BeddieKU23 said in Friars vs Hawks S16 Game Thread:
The 2nd half will be completely different going to have to make shots.
ya cause you know sooner or later they gonna start making some of those 3's - -we have JUST GOT TO get Oach going
Soooo who feels comfortable here at half time ?
@approxinfinity said in Friars vs Hawks S16 Game Thread:
These quick 3s with no boarders
He has to stop that shit
Dammit Oach - -27 % since the K/State game. - -better look out Providence score two at the line they start to stir
Dam Wilson has 8 rebounds already they said - - KU has 7 blocks

Should be up 15..
For sure we need to take advantage
