@Texas-Hawk-10 said in Les Miles:

Jeff Long has a good eye for coaching talent, but an absolute shitty eye for character or just no regard for character. This is basically a repeat of what happened to Long at Arkansas and something like this happening is why I've never been a big Jeff Long fan and thought it was a bad hire when it happened, and it's turning out to be a bad hire now. The only silver lining might be if KU end up firing both with cause and saving a few million dollars.

So help me out here cause I seriously don't know how this works. - So if they could fire them with cause KU wouldn't have to pay them their money ? - -that would be a just fit. - this whole thing is just a Baad look for the University

@FarmerJayhawk said in Les Miles:

KU will either fire Les for cause or usher him quietly into retirement. Money people are coming for Long's head.

yes sir. Pretty much the way it needs to be - -Both have got to go - sad situation

This whole situation is just ANOTHER black eye against this University. WHAT THE HELL has happened to our athletic Dept ? - - -We have this fricken NCAA thing hanging over our head in our Basketball - still not knowing what's going to happen there. NOW with have this dam nasty ass thing with Les. -NOT a good look for this University , makes us look like thugs, hoodlums peverts from old men and Liars.

Just when we thought we had a glimmer of hope for this Cess Pool of a Football program - -we now have this crap .So what do you do ? - do we just turn our heads and try to ignore and hope this goes away? - you know and I know we can't do that - this is just ANOTHER kick to the groin for this pitiful football program. - - do we have the money to buy Les out ? heard it's a 9 million buyout ? - -you know there are many Boosters that could - thing is will they? - just heard them talking about a 2nd investigation from the SCHOOL it'self and man Les sounds like he is in a really bad spot. If this crap happened he has GOT TO GO - -AND GO SOON - - They/People are saying Long's ass has got to be canned too , because he was on such a Mission just to hire Miles - -didn't even do a full Coach Search.

We all know or should know all this means is if it turns out and Les is fired soon or WHENEVER - more likely then not we gonna have probably mass exodus of committed players - -School would have to grant release or should be the thing for the University to do - either way kids will want out - -you tell me , what kid would want to come into this situation total cess pool of a football program not even knowing you your head Coach was going to be - -and were back to square one. -how fricking discourgaging is this - this program will continue to suck be the laughing stock

What the hell has happened to our sports programs ? - -feel really bad for the kids and few people in the athleteic program that ARE actually trying to do things right. - - REALLY DISCOURGING /FRUSTRATING ready to throws my hands up - WTF ?

Would really like to see us put the hammer on Gueye 6'11 got bounce , looks like KU & UCLA might be the front leaders according to his 247 list both of them KU & UCLA are listed as warm , always speaks pretty highly of KU

2nd half Dave showed up again.

there has been times lately if it wern't for him we wouldn't need him in the 2nd half cause we be buried him being all we had in the 1st

Granted, that is true. But that does not mean that it is an issue that he needs to focus on for the rest of this season and next. The guy can dominate when he focuses.

believe me I'm sure it's not in his chemistry to go out and think ehhhh I'm not going play a full game maybe just the 2nd half - - 1st half. There are alot of times he is getting doubled down low catching deep and outside small dropping down to double. Dave gets hyped sped up I just think and not saying neccessarily you but there are some in here as things start going South they target Dave. I'm guilty of that some myself. Big Man - - Big target to place blame , easy target. Then I get to thinking you know it's not like he isn't trying just as hard in the 1st half - - the 2nd half as the other half. he just has that tendenancy to get sped up easy. - You can't fault the effort - The way I try to look at it after I start to think rationally is - - -Takes 5 to win a game - - takes 5 to lose a game , cuase under normal conditions at some time - - some point EVERY one of these kids have screwed up enough in the game that they can and should share equal blame for crap play.

Usually it's just that someone finds the Target DAVE and starts in and then others hop on the bandwagon and take shots - - make them feel better I guess . Lot of arm chair Coach's - -dam Dave WHY is Bill playing you - -why you doing this - -why AREN'Tyou doing that - -yet bottom line is after all is said and done DAVE has saved our ass - - A - -LOT - -easy to 2nd guess someone when you sittin at home kicked back sucking suds and stuffing the face, makes me wonder how many of the critics play P-5 Major College basket ball? - -if they did - - how well did they do in those types of situations?

No games till next Thursday now - -rest tomorrow

@Crimsonorblue22 said in KU tune up game thread:

Anybody hear if the novas gillespe's out?

ya he is done tore MCL

I am to old for this - - make my pacemaker tickle

Dam , Dave ended up with 18 points & 10 rebounds - -wow

I mean we play like absolute slop for almost 3/4 of the game and THEN the last 8 minutes of the game - -the defensive effort we put out went through the roof - - Dave decided to show himself after all - -Harris was Rock Solid - -just don't gt it

I can't take anymore of these Jekyll & Hyde games

Braun what the hell you doing>

how the hell did Williams miss that

Where in the hell has this McCormack been all night

TIED

Anybody got an extra bottle of lube cause we got screwed on that call

LOL this team getting getting their butt whooped on the boards b this 12-10 team MINUS 11

Whoaa , looks like Cade Cunningham got hurt in the final minute of the game, don't think it's to bad hopefully looks like a ankle

NOBODY other the Oachi with more then 2 points. - - If you watch looks like everyone is hesitant to even take the Shot. - -Braun has multiple opportunities for the 3 and hardly looked at the rim, Wilson no more then a pile of warm Dog doo tonight

@bmensch1 said in KU tune up game thread:

I wonder if ku has already moved on to the next game.

this KU team for sure can't afford to look forward to the next game. - -they can't afford to look past ANY GAME

@BShark said in 2022 Recruiting Thread:

The eligibility thing is weird, I imagine a lot of players won't actually use the extra year.

possibly , just don't know. The thing is a lot of these kids are good here at KU but yet not mind boggling , great. - -They typical very fringe type player , the type of player that if they get any shot at all it's going to be G league at best or over sea's - -players like that could use that extra year of eligibility to even enhance that chance. - just kind of dreaming thinking maybe about that type of roster chance - -IF 2/3 of those guys were to use that year could do nothing but help their chance if their are right there, a chance to improve even more - - just random thought buddy - -you could very easily be right - but you just never know. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Ok so someone please tell me different if I'm wrong on this but I think I got this right but feel free. The way I understand this stands because of this extra year ok so, we are in the 2020/21 year right now. which means Grady is STILL 2 seasons away right ? - -this is the 20/21 season , then w have the 2021/22 season then Grady in the 2022/2023 season right ? I think everyone maintains their current classifcation right ? Cause Mitch coming back as a SR - -again

I think EVERYONE comes back the same as this year. - - So I think if that's the case I would have this figured right.

How about this for roster ; - -Christian Braun being a JR - -Harris a Soph - - Jalen a Soph ( I think Jalen sticking for at least the 3 years ) - Bryce Thompson would be a Soph , David McCormack would be a SR- - Kyle Cuffe a FR - - Grady Dick as a FR - - Zach Clemence a Soph - - -& KJ Adams would be a Soph - that's a pretty salty Roster - - -I'm pretty sure that's right love that roster

@Marco said in 2022 Recruiting Thread:

@FarmerJayhawk no doubt. And Dick is still young, he is going to get even bigger. He can penetrate at will, and even go ball deep at the rim. His ball skills are more than good, and he will get longer the more that he plays.

there you go again roflmao

@FarmerJayhawk said in 2022 Recruiting Thread:

Glad to have Dick has a hard commit. I feel like he has a great head for the game and has risen to occasion in the face of stiff competition. Very good length should allow a great stroke and penetration down the line.

i’m so sorry someone help me

I hear ya buddy great length and really good penetrator is really good - -nothing to see hear just lots of length lol

@DanR said in 2021 Transfer Talk/List:

@Marco I thought Jeff Capel was supposed to be the next Duke coach. He might be available. :face_with_tongue:

Thats what I've been hearing a lot also. - -I think he was an assistant under K for some years after he Graduated if I'm not mistaking

there you go Boys & Girls Gradey just announcing KU. - -Surprising the Lady said ESPN has Grady as the # 21 ranked played in the class of 22 , - -Good Job my man - -Welcome to JAYHAWK Nation. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Duke loses to GT now 11-10 on the year Don't think anyway in hell they now make the tourney unless they win the ACC Tourney - - that's to bad

@approxinfinity said in Non-KU Games Thread:

@jayballer67 or illinois goes to 2. Unlikely but maybe

Just heard Joey Brackets has moved Baylor back to # 2- he usually not to far off

Illinois just curb stomping # 2 Michigan by 23 at Ann Arbor - -good way for Baylor to move back up to # 2

What am I missing ?- -I can't figure out why WV fouled intentionally it seems with a minute to go in OT. What & why did they do that ?

Fran with the hands down easily most Moranic Statement of the DECADE. says no offense to KU but any team in the Big 12 that Played Baylor Saturday Night would of beat them -WTH you been smoking Frannie ?

@Marco said in Rankings:

Not a Wichita State fan, but their coach definitely deserved with everything going on around their program to have the interim tag removed.

I agree I think it was well deserved for him - -I think the Houston game sealed the deal

@Marco said in 2022 Recruiting Thread:

@jayballer67 okay, I'll stop. But in all seriousness, I'm a Dick guy. I think that he is athletic and bigtime skilled, and will only get better - including on D - under Self. He is an in-state future pro that we must sign.

been hearing comparisons with him to Braun
