@jayballer67 Juan has the ability to score 10 points a game. He looked much more confident out there today. Best game of the year for him.
Best game and we NEEDED him and he came through tonight- - HUGE

@RockChalkinTexas said in Revenge Game Thread:
@approxinfinity we can't go stagnant
finally stretched it a little. - -had opportunities and just something wrong like 3 straight times- - make TCU feel the pressure on their shots - - -late game and down , where they KNOW they gotta score
Och has just lost his shot late - -and FINALLY - - FINALLY CB tarting to do what he needs to do - -look for your dam shot
@DCHawker said in Revenge Game Thread:
How many front ends of 1-1s have we actually made over the past few games...
Zero - - na not sure
we can't key free throw and losing opportunity to stretch this
We have JUST GOT to get more production out of Dave and Jalen. - - radio announcer says OCh looks tired. - - And the others aren't ? - -come on just looking for excuses
GOD we can't shake these guys - -I just don't get it. - The guys FINALLY starting to go after the ball on missed shots
CB has just got to shoot the ball more - keeps turning down wide open shots
@BShark said in Revenge Game Thread:
Imagine if we could get stops, might be leading LOL
once again it is our awesome defense we just flat shut teams down
would someone PLEASE explain to me what they see in TCU.- they rebound - - AND ? -they spanked us there and now being a pain in our ass here. I will say I've said this for a long time even when he was at Pitt, I've always like Jamie , thought TCU made a good hire when they hired him. He finally got SOME talent at TCU this year but -- what the hell am I missing
Och scores 12 early then I dunno must of went to concessions for a Chili dog

@Zabudda said in Revenge Game Thread:
Just like before with them getting to the rim over and over is disaster for the Jays
Our bigs are very bad defensively. Been a problem all year.
the team has been bad defensively all year
@jessejayhawk said in Revenge Game Thread:
@jayballer67 So far not much for them to get excited about
well when you jump out 20-8 -- the fans should be all over that with the fans realizing that TCU just spanked our ass the night before last
TCU closed the half on a 27-15 run
One Major question. - - was Fans not allowed into the phog for tonights game ? - - MY GOD you can hear a pin drop in that place, and when THEY DO SCORE- - it's like a volley in a tennis match - -Nice wine and cheese few claps - - where in the hell are the Students - -pathetic effort by the fans tonight

ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
Am I wrong, or has this been missing for awhile? Maybe THAT is what this team needs--FANS CHEERING THEIR ASSES OFF!!!
Instead of looking at the game through opera glasses, holding their Packer Plastics 16 oz cups like tea cups with their pinkies out, and saying, "Tsk, tsk...My my, I DO find fault here. Shall we adjourn to the parlor?"
LMAO , there has been mention here multiple times this year about how pathetic the song has been at the end of a win - just like EH - - It is time to quit being liike a wine & cheese crowd at a tennis match and unleash the Beast - - -I was beaten down after Tuesday I'll admit BUT - - - I'M BACK The team needs to hear the crowd - -the other team for sure needs to hear - let it ALL HANG OUT hell ya - - let's do this
Well been talking to friends , and now that I have had time to calm down not talk out of emotions - and think about things realistically , like others have said that I have talked to I too NOW realize I'm not ready to jump ship like some. Does it suck the way we played Tuesday ? - Hell ya it does , but look at it this way - What's the chances of Och going 4-17 again tonight ? - -Do we think that we get better effort across the board tonight ? - - -Hell ya.
Thing is This is still a team that will make seconf d round , This is a team that iis capable of reaching the final four, fully expect them to come out of this mini slump they are in - -they gonna be playing on Neutral floor in tourney - -they STILL ended up 5-4 on the road what is perceived as the toughest Conference in College Basketball. We have a Guard shooting 51 % from the floor in Braun - we have chances are an All American in Och - -Still think Dave will play better - -Just got to learn to hang on to the rebound quit getting it taken away - -GRAB THE DAM BALL SY - - -THIS IS MINE.
Now am I saying we WILL reach the final four - -- umm now , what I am saying is we can -w do have the components. - were just in a little mini slump but I think that can be worked out. Evey tetam has thoughs. Do we have weakeness that's been exposed ? - - Ya - -but so do other teams - every team has a weakness. - -Bottom line I'm staying with the boys - -they gonna right this & we gonna make a run. - You figure we either gonna play a 15-16 seed 1st round and go from there- - ONE game at a time - -Just saying we can do this if things fall right - -umm ya - -but we aref for sure through the 2nd weekend. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
Here is a little historic FYI. - - -60 years ago tonight on March 2nd 1963. - - Big Wilt scored his 100 points against the Knicks on this night. Kinda weird the sixer's playing the knicks again tonight - -Big Wilt - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
Ku Ladies up at the half against # 9 Texas- - 27- - 25 - -going for the sweep on Senior night , sure could use this win. - -Let's go Ladies
@benshawks08 said in No more expectations moving forward:
@jayballer67 I don't think we are a first round exit simply because of how highly we are likely to be seeded. The level of competition in the big 12 is stiff and TCU has shown they should be considered in the top half of a league with basically no bottom. Remember how good Iowa State was before conference play started? They were ranked and playing well until they hit the gauntlet that is this conference round robin. So I'm fairly confident we will beat whatever double digit seed we end up playing in the first round. And actually dropping off the 1/2 line could actually give us a BETTER chance of making the second weekend if there happens to be an upset. As a 1/2 seed your first game is basically a pass and your second game is vs one of those middle of the pack tournament teams. I could see us struggling against a 6-8 seed team. If we were to drop to the 3 line there's an outside chance we face an 11 seed in the second round (TCU currently projected as a 9 seed and potential second round opponent for a 1 seed). Eleven seeds are teams like Wake and Creighton who I'm not quite as scared of. Long story short, I agree this team is probably in the top 16 in the country but will go ahead and say that's how far I think they'll go when I remove my crimson and blue glasses.
When I put those bad boys back on though, this team is still capable of beating REALLY good teams. Baylor is a really good team. Tech is a really good team. KU IS A REALLY GOOD TEAM. Yes we have our weaknesses but so does every other team. Yes KU's weaknesses have been exposed (I'd argue it was more Texas, than Baylor, who exposed them) but the same could be said for every team. Remember a few days ago when EVERY TEAM in the top 6 lost? Nobody is perfect this year which means there is opportunity for this team to achieve greatness. In my heart, I believe we have the pieces with Och, Braun, Wilson, and Good Dave all being legit scoring threats who can go for 20 in a game without it being a shock. Heck, it's not even surprising when 2 of them go for 20+ in a game and not even unheard of for 3 to do it. When this team runs and pushes the pace they are so much fun to watch and have looked (as @drgnslayr mentioned) unbeatable. I'm still waiting for Och to actually go off. He's been mister consistent this year and has been more of a volume scorer. I still think he's got a game where he hits 5 or 6 threes and goes for 30-40 on a night where he just doesn't miss much. I for one am hoping that is being saved for the brightest of lights and he will have his one shining moment amid a season of individual excellence.
My bracket will once again this year have KU winning it all and my heart will break if that doesn't happen. Here's to prolonging that heartbreak as long as possible. Rock Chalk!
The one thig that is different between us and the othre teams you talk about weakness is - -it's been our weakness ALL YEAR LONG we can't stop a cold on the straight line drive. Our defense just not have what it takes to go that fat in the Tourney pertty simple
@Jethro said in Control our Destiny Game Thread:
I wonder if Bill isn't losing the team. Never have seen such a listless effort. Maybe it's because they're tired...I'm not sure.
I kinda wonder myself. - I think it was coming close to boiling point last night - with all the subbing he couldn't find the right one and I think he is getting really frustrated with the effort of multiple players
@tis4tim said in Control our Destiny Game Thread:
I just don’t see much toughness with this team. Gonna have to win our last two now. Put ourselves in a difficult spot.
that's cause there isn't any toughness on this team. A big part of rebounding as one aspect is all about want to - -who on this team wants to - -cause it get's pretty physical - -who on this team likes physicality? - Tell me
Well I just got no more expectations. They went out the window , after last night. Something that just sticks in my craw it was well documented during the off Season with the incoming freshmen we got and transfer portal that Bill was looking for more athletism - -supposedly we were going to be so much more athletic team this season. Yet all I hear is when we get beat outplayed is just how much more athletic these other teams are- - -if that's the case and yet we were suppose to be so much better how much we improved with these incoming kids then my question is - - just how fricken much were we non athletic last year ?
This team has some glaring weakness and they have been exposed; they got exposed against Baylor - - they got exposed against TCU. and as much you won't want to hear this I'm saying it anyways cause it is what it is. - This team has a very good chance of being knocked out of the NCAA tourney in the 1st round period. -we are a very weak rebounding team TCU just smoked our ass on the offensive Boards getting 2-3 shots every time they put it up, poor boxing out -- poor everything . Next we are a very poor defensive team and those things are going to bit you right square in your ass come Tourney time. We get beat continuously off the dribble drive , we have a slow footed 5 man that really can't defend - -Remy can't defend - - Jalen can't defend mercy they are ugly on defense.
I'm really not worried - -really not upset about us having a # 1 seed - - cause we don't deserve to be a number 1 seed actually before it's said an done we could end up a 3 Seed - wouldn't be that upset cause don't really feel w are much above that but for DAM SURE we are no # 1 seed. - -now there are those that won't agree with that and to that I'll just say I'm sorry - -I'm sorry your Crimson & Blue glasses are blinding you to fact. -- This team for having the experience it has , the depth it supposedly has or had - -has under achieved plain and simple. w will be lucky I think if we even get a share of the Big 12 Title s I think there is a good chance that Texas could come in Saturday and beat us, we have been playing really poorly basically every since we put the S - - - stomping on Baylor at home , look at the close games we have had this Season that very easily could of gone the other way - -we could easily have another 2-3 losses - this team I'm seeing just doesn't have it and that's dissa pointing considering - -we are more like a # 15-16 ranked team NOT NO #6 rnnked team - -so all I'm saying don't be making any reservations to go see these guys past the 2nd round tops-- looking for better days
now Clemence coming in

Bill is too wound up. Team is taking after him.
No he is trying to get this fricken team to do SOMETHING - - ANYTHING the bigs tonight are pathetic - -with a capital P
TCU 15 offensive rebounds - - total rebounds being beaten up on the boards - - minus 9 -- KU only 8 offensive rebounds
this rebounding is screwed -3 shots at the rim GOD they are sad
