@Texas-Hawk-10 said in just passing time/ playing a scenario:
No, Hamilton isn't a good enough coach (.578 career winning percentage) and is way too old (72). This is the guy that gave Bill Self his fist assistant coaching job at Oklahoma St. 35 years ago of you want reference for how long Hamilton has been around.
OH Dam I didn't realize he was near that old , just thought he has been doing pretty good at Florida State and the ACC
Ok guys just sitting here killing time on this nice afternoon waiting for the game tonight. - so scenario and I know we are not in this situation - -not even close but just pondering , IF and again IF a situation came up to where we lost Coach Self for any various reasons , do you think there would be a case where KU would entertain the idea of seeing if Coach Hamilton from Florida State become the Coach at KU / - he has done pretty dam good has turned Florida State into pretty solid team , recruits well seems to always get talented height - -pretty constant in the top 25 , has been doing well in a tough Conference - think just a solid Coach - think IF that happened would we ever possibly persue Hamilton ? - -just curious what ya think ? - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
MERCY these announcers for the Texas - -Texas Tech game are HORRIBLE , can't hardly stand to listen
@BShark said in Mitch and Teahan:
Dotson and Malik both left to play in the gleague (with Malik ultimately ending up overseas). Hopefully both Och and Jalen enjoy college enough to want to stay.
Jalen is not ready for the NBA by some length. - -he is more like a three year player then maybe - - maybe go

@Marco said in Mitch and Teahan:
Okay, I'll say it, I would prefer that Mitch move on, but maybe Coach knows something that we don't. Teahan is a walk-on, so it doesn't matter.
How does bringing Mitch back next season hurt anything? He doesn't count against the scholarship limits for next year so nobody has to leave to make room for him. With 3 new bigs coming in next season, is having someone like Mitch who can help teach those guys the system when Self isn't around really a bad thing? Self also still needs a back up for Dave so why is having Mitch around a bad thing there? If Sydney Curry is good enough to fit that role, then it's his, if not having Mitch will fill a very large hole in the rotation.
very well said. Bringing Mitch back can only help

@Kcmatt7 said in Mitch and Teahan:
What about Marcus? What's he going to do?
Give a speech Saturday, then make a final decision after the season. I’d say 90% chance he leaves
I say about 70-75 % chance he comes back
So how do we feel about Mitch coming back / - for me it's fine , Mitch can provide spot minutes , pretty fair shot blocker , does dirty work takes charges , so for me it's ok - he loves KU. The real question is does Marcus? - According to local sports program today here in Topeka he said he is going through the Senior activities and will see after the Season is over.
They tried to break it down and see in plain terms what that rally meant - -more or less is there any kind of Chance can I make money whether it be in the NBA OR Oversea's or where ever. - -They said he will get with the Coach's and talk it over , they said you know how Coach Self feels, he would take 50 Marcus Garrett's
I really like Marcus defensively - has improved some offensively but guess you still have to say some liability on the offensive end. Yet I would take him for his defense , the question how does these guys effect our Scholi's?- My understanding they won't count against them at all. - Does that mean they would have to pay their own way this coming year? - -how woudl that effect us if any in 2022 ?I mean will them coming back in 2021 effect available Scholi's for 2022?
I think if he wants to come back - - let him , you can't replace experience. You bring those two back with the guys returning , I don't think Wilson or Abaji going anywhere with what we got coming in could be pretty Salty agian. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Go get HIM
Staff is on it!
Bossi just confirmed this on 247.
what is it that Bossi is confirming on 247?
Picked up another CB for Gradey but it was from Chasen FWTW - from TOS but makes 5 picks for us for him
So we think Cuffe is staying in 22 and not re-classifying ?
@BeddieKU23 said in Non-KU Games Thread:
Michigan St knocked off Ohio St yesterday. Either Ohio St is overrated or Michigan St is catching on just in time
think it might be the later my friend , kinda like Duke
@Crimsonorblue22 said in Vaccine:
@BeddieKU23 I think it's the opposite, most people that have side effects are younger and they say that's due to their immune system reacting to the vaccine. I also read they really don't want you to take meds cause they want your system to react.
true that is what I was told. - That most people getting reaction to the 2nd dose is under the age of 55 and that actually it's NOT THE SHOT causing the reaction , it's your body building the immunity against the virus
Well I've seen 4 CB Picks for him at KU - - the only CB Picks I've seen. - -Both Bossi & Jerry Meyer have gave us CB's so that's a good thing
@Marco my doctor told me as I asked I said I was debating about getting the shot , telling her that I had friends that had been having adverse reactions to the shot , we were talking about the 2nd shot was more they were having reactions to, she said it's NOT the Shot - -it's actually your body building the defense building the immunity against the virsus on the 2nd shot. - -She said most of the one's having reactions to it were to people under the age of 55 she just kept saying get the shot.
She said that if people could see when people who get the flu and put on a ventalatir is ONE thing - - -but people with COVID they put you face down on a bed have the ventolatir and not much they an do kind of a hail Merry - - not good
It's goodto have this - we struggle enough the way it is - -can't afford to sit around for a long stretch
I couldn't stand it couldn't look - - - DAVE
K-State just beat Okla
AGAIN - - DADVID HAS GOT TO SITTTTTTTTTT THE FRICK DOWN
Looks like anybodys game now - -we've had our run - - they had their run
Dave has got to sit
oh shit Jalen at the line
Dam we need to get Dave out

I know they're fast but they're not leave-you-in-the-dust-while-we-dunk fast
lol or let me pick up my jock
I said long before this game started Dave was going to be challenged tonight Texas longer more athletic Not good for Dave
@Kcmatt7 said in Tejas (or El Tigre?) game thread:
Dave should quit trying to dunk.
flush is fine but this guy trying to do to big of flush dm man
why the hell you trying to rip the rim down Dave make the fricken shot
not even close to the same team as the 1st half
Texas plus 7 iin rebounds in the 2nd half - -say good night Irene -- Ku 1 for last 8
we had our shot - -blew it all away
49% in 1st half - - 29 % in the 2nd half
our Season long scoring drought has returned and raised it's ugly head
WTH Dave even with the blown wide open flush you STILL had time to grab the rebound and lay it up again instead of tip
@benshawks08 said in Tejas (or El Tigre?) game thread:
@jayballer67 all 4 were early and then none in the last 10 minutes.
keep it up. - - All the guys playing fairly well tonight so far - -no one ugly

@KirkIsMyHinrich said in Tejas (or El Tigre?) game thread:
I like going small tbh. Texas is big, but their bigs probably aren't good enough to bury us with scoring. I mean Sims only averages 8 points per game on the season.
In Lawrence, we had trouble penetrating on offense and rotating on defense because Texas' guards were so quick. Going small seems to have helped that some. Texas has also missed some open looks, but we look faster.
Bryce has been able to create a bit which is nice.
Noticed not many turnovers for KU. I believe just 4.
ya taking pretty good care of the ball just hope trend continues
@BeddieKU23 said in Tejas (or El Tigre?) game thread:
Best half of the season and its not even close
gonna say that's probably the best 1st half I've seen all year by far - - but still a long 2nd half not comfortable yet
Lot better job of defending the 3. Did everyone see those stats where we ranked 1st in Big 12 play lie 4 different cats - we rank 1st in a lot of defensive area's
@nwhawkfan said in Tejas (or El Tigre?) game thread:
Up by 11 with Dave on the bench? Fine by me. Unleash him Bill
Garrett sitting quite a bit towards the end with two fouls too- -that has to be a positive No McCormack - -No Garrett and up 11 long way to go though
ISU 37-30 now with 1:55 in 1st half. -- Here they come
don't hold your breathe on that ISU game
Just heard this off the K-State pre game believe it or not - -they was talking about how they thought this game tonight would be a lot closer then the one in Lawrence .Then they threw this out:
Ku in this 5 game winning streak /stretch has the best defensive efficncy rating of ANYBODY in the game this year. - -That's pretty dam good, I realize some of that ae the teams we have played during this stretch BUT our defense has really come around, - -hope it continues
Ok I realize this might be the most bizarre statement I've made in a while - -my be the MOST BIZARRE one I have EVER made here , But I'm thinking maybe just maybe we have a Shot at Baylor Saturday I think we played them decent there - I dunno just thinking aomething telling me in my gut I think we can play with them in the Phog , our last game of the regular Season - -I'm tellin ya I just think we might be able to hang with them - - I'm I just nuts - -be very careful how you answer that lol. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
Just saw the latest rankings. - They have KU at 17th in the AP , Agree or Disagree ? - - Think that might be a little high at the present myself I was thinking we might go up 2-3 spots , be 20th Or 21st - -But jumping 6 notches ? - - I dunno ? - - It's fine I guess but just seems like might be a tad much right now. - -The Coach's Poll has us 19th - I could see that. So what ya think
What a miserable Saturday - -Puke And Kentucky both winning
Mam , for sure see where the game was lost for Texas. - - - West Virginia 26-37 from the Ft line - - - Texas 4-11 - -big time difference, hey it was at Texas so can't say home cooking - -Hell Texas hung 53 points in the 1st half - -but West Virginia outscored then 41-29 in the 2nd half. - -Two guys for Texas really Ramey 28 points 7-8 from the 3 and Coleman 20 points - -OH WELL. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
A guy that stepped up huge late in the game when Tech made that run - -3 times - - - 3 times in a row , Marcus came up with Huge baskets - that's a Senior and then of course Jalen late and then Braun Huge

UK getting hot just in time to win the SEC tourney and make the NCAAs
ya just thinking glad they got hot to late - -Still don't think they win the SEC tourney , putting it to Tennessee pretty good at Tennessee
@FarmerJayhawk said in Buckets Game Thread:
Bryce’s motor is always at full tilt. Tristan not so much
Tristan not touching the floor for a second in the 1st half today , just sloidifies to me that he truly will be gone after this year. These last games he has been a no show on the floor
@BeddieKU23 said in Buckets Game Thread:
@KirkIsMyHinrich said in Buckets Game Thread:
Garbage shot. Of course that's the one he hits
Thats his only offense garbage
you notice at the of the half only 3 points he got and was WITHOUT Garrett guarding
I'm tellin ya Dave is starting to come into his own , looks confident , making good kick outs just looking solid
