There is no reason TGF should see the floor

Assuming Bill wants to win this game I would imagine he doesn't play in the 2nd half.

hey better NOT see the floor the 2nd half

WV up by 3 with 4 minutes to go. - -Was 9 , If Texas wins this game ,WV can look at ONE thing in this game and would be the reason

I don't know how many times Texas had WIDE OPEN drives to the hole easy , easy , easy buckets. No resistence AT ALL Sad defense - -just sad

Holy crap I can't STAND fricken Duke. Just everything about them Every Coach on the staff Bone nose himself - - ALL the players not ONE player I can stand. ALL of them just have this agorant walk stare attitude. - All the Concession workers , their ushers, the ticket takers , the custodians,, anything dealing with Duke is just right dog doo. - The fricking Arena- -EVERYTHING.

Wake Forest has a pretty Cool little guy. Kid just graduated High School a couple of weeks ago came in during Mid term ? -plays point for them doing a decent job. Came right into College after just graduating and their starting point guard. Has 8 points not afraid of these cocky holes

Non-KU Games Thread • Jan 09, 2021 05:13 PM

probably gonna turn out ugly but I dunno , kind of looking forward to watch some of that WV Texas game

Boomer Thread • Jan 09, 2021 05:12 PM

I don't know , I'm having a little bit of a hard time getting into games as much this year , with everything that is going on , mostly empty arena's . The Schedule is so helter skelter never just really know WHEN a team is going to play. Just all over the place, the atmosphere , ya know what I'm trying to say ? usually I'm jacked stoked. I still am , just has such a different feel this whole dam Season -- we will get through this though - - -well eventually lol. - -Have a great day Jayhawkers.

@approxinfinity said in We have all heard that phrase - never happen to me. - - Well:

@jayballer67 just one more thing to worry about right now. That sucks. Good luck getting it straight. Can take a while.

Thanks. Got a lot of it done yesterday. Got my Police report Case number and they have started their investigation - I think in the end it will come out ok. - -Thanks

@BShark said in Boomer Thread:

Oh and Marcus will play today. Confirmed.

kind of had this feeling he would

I know we all have heard this , said this at one point or another sometime during our life right ?

Well I was one of those guys my friends , Well I got a letter in the mail yesterday and it was from the Dept of Labor and it said: Mr Butler we have received your application for un-employment benefits , it is determined that your are not eligible for any benefits, you have the right to appeal. I told the wife - - -WHAT? - - WHAT ? - -i haven't work since the fall of 2013 when I went on disability from multiple back surgeries , the last one putting me on the shelf for good.

Well so it is , someone has gotten my information and now identity theft - - GREAT. - -So I called the Topka workforce and was telling them she said I needed to file a fraud suit, she said she would get me the web site, while I was waiting I told the wife sounds like I'm not the only one - - She comes back on and says OH NO we are getting buried with Identity theft now.

So I spent most the afternoon making calls - - filling out forms and such. - -Had to get ahold of all the 3 major Credit Bureaus and they put a fraud alert on my credit. -Had to get ahold of Social Security , Had to get ahold of the IRS fraud unit - -just one huge pain in the ass.
Needed to get ahold of the Banks. - Suppose to get ahold of the Credit Card companies

I guess bottom line my friends is - - just be careful just a bunch of idiots out here right now during our time of trouble - -HEADS UP it can and does happen alot. Stay safe my friends.

2021 Transfer Talk/List • Jan 09, 2021 04:14 PM

@BShark said in 2021 Transfer Talk/List:

He couldn't get off the bench at UConn. I'd pass.

True , was just curious. - -Plus on top of that I think our front court gonna be fine next year , don't think we need anymore - need more back court help

Boomer Thread • Jan 09, 2021 04:11 PM

Ya could turn out to be a up and down on the floor. That's ok I'll take my chances with that Oklahoma 2nd in league in Scoring but I'm not impressed well other then maybe Reeves - -Manick isn't beating KU by himself that's for sure. If Marcus is available put him on Reeves.

True this might be one of those games where we go 5 out - with smaller increments of Dave - it's ok Dave is still just fine with me - -just smaller in this.

Dave is playing better when he is facing another true 5 example ( West Virginia ) - - ( TCU ) -- he helps there but just times when we need to switch I'm good with that

2021 Transfer Talk/List • Jan 09, 2021 02:19 AM

Not sure if this goes here or not, 2021 transfer. - Curious - - saw where Javonte Brown Fergurson transferring from U Conn 7 ft 240 . - - Would we have any interest anymore with him ? - -Just curious. - -Chose U Conn over Texas A & M and KU the 1st time think there would be interest?

RIP Texas Tech • Jan 09, 2021 02:10 AM

@justanotherfan said in RIP Texas Tech:

This one is easy to understand from the player perspective. Harder from the coaching perspective.

Looking at Burnett's game log, his minutes were all over the place. Here's his minutes in order by game on the season. 19, 20, 9, 19, 15, 30, 18, 21, 15, 18, 22, 6. That's a player that has no idea what his role is supposed to be. That is an impossible way to develop as a freshman.

From the coaching side of things, maybe they saw something in practice. Hard to say. But either way, its a bad look. Either Beard misread his talent, or mismanaged him.

I'm not really so sure about not having any idea on role. If your looking at his minutes.

You look at this - - the 1st 4 games he averaged between 15-20 minutes in 4 out of the 5 games - -thats a pretty consistent fair amount of time in those. - -then he spiked a 30 minutes for one game - - then in the final 4 games he logged minutes he was seeing in between 15-21 minutes a game.

That's a pretty dam good amount of minutes for a freshen - -actually quite a few minutes pretty consistent in those minutes. - -think it more Burnett then Beard - -he should of been able to figure out his role getting those types of consistent minutes

Non-KU Games Thread • Jan 08, 2021 10:44 PM

Do we all remember playing Washburn earlier this year - - we won 89 -54 ? out of Topeka

Well these guys have done awesome , they are ranked # 5 in the Nation now and are going to mover up. - - - They just got through beating the # 1 team in the Nation for their level North West Missouri 84-82 in overtime - -HUGE win for the Bods - -way to go guys. - -I guess North West was like 74-1 over some period of time something like that pretty crazy but HUGE win for Brett Ballard ol former Jayhawk - - Hell ya. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Biden and Vaccines • Jan 08, 2021 10:17 PM

Farmer , I hope your right about maybe by Sumer , and maybe for where your at very well could be BUT all I know is what they are telling us here in Shawnee Co , and it's not good.

They just had their weekly release , they have a Health score card and last week we had dropped down to 18 which showed decreasing , then BAM this week we spiked back up into the un-controlled, they have a max score on the card of 24 - -and we pegged it we buried it with a 24 score.

Here in Shawnee County we just set a record of 233 new cases for 1 day , we jumped up 6 points. The Incidedence trend which was in the low zone or decreasing last week jumped back into un-controlled , new cases up 43 % from a week earlier - 42 more deaths. Positive rate went from 9.9 last week to 12.8 this week. Hospital occupancy rate also back over 90 %

Health Officials say 86 % of cases in Shawnee Co had no known source of infection. - The WHO just now said that they believe there is now a New Contagious variant in 8 States that is different then the strain in the UK.

So I'm really not holding much hope for things to be better by Summer

Heard an interesting little tidbit last night or the night before whichever. - - The closest chance for Gonzaga to be beat this Season now is against St Mary's and even with that being said, Gonzaga has a 85 % chance to win that game roflmao

hey, got a question plain and simple and I will admit I'm serious I'm not up on all this stuff may sound stupid - BUT I seriously have no idea.

So anyways can someone tell me on the athletic dorms like the Men's basketball - - -does the KU women's athletes stay in the same athletic dorms ? - -no I don't mean same rooms don't even go there. I'm serious do the athletes Female and Male all share the same dorms that deal with athletics ? - I mean like possibly different floors but yet same building? - -It's a serious question guys - -maybe Naive but curious - thanks.

the main reason I ask this is because the Women's Basketball has had to postpone yet another game because of COVID that's is within the women's team, So that was causing me some concern if they truly do share the same dorms - - just curious - -Thanks again - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

What a sad day this is • Jan 06, 2021 08:01 PM

1st off my friends Thank you for allowing me to express my thoughts here at this moment truly appreciate that.

Want to say and really express , get across and that is - -What a Sad day , a truly Sad day for America. It's one of the days when dare I say I'm sad to be an American. Is this what we have become ? - -Is this what we want ? - -Is this America ? Just terrible.

My fellow Bucketeer's I'm gonna say this and I more then accept if you want to poke - jeer rib and or cuss at me that " YES " yes I did vote for President Trump for his initial term & then again for his 2nd term. - Was that a bad decision ? - - I dunno , possibly - - quite possibly. I how ever for me voted for who I thought would do better at the time- - it's ok if you wanna call me an idiot /moran what ever. You see I'm not affiliated to either party I just vote each term for who I THINK at the time would be better at the time. - - BUT THIS, , THIS IS JUST WRONG.

MR President is this what you want ? - -do you see what has happened ? - - Yet this is what you encourgaged. - - I stood beside you sire , I voted for you , I stood behind you - -took a lot of shit but stayed with you, This as the world see's it now - -America is So divided right now - - America is so un-settled right now , is this what you REALLY want ?...... -It just creates a ugly picture of America - -this is more Iran -- Iraq - - Afghanstan I don't want that. Americans don't want this.

Mr President , Sir this who episode in which what you created , encouraging .Mr President I voted for you - - BUT you lost Sir, you need to step down with some diginty , Pride This is NOT America Sir - -Americans don't act like this - -National Guard being called in --Really ? Protesters on the White House steps ? It's time Sir -- this is just Ugly do what you should do -- need to do - -let the process take place. - - Sorry to say - -you lost - - it sucks you lost this election BUT YOU LOST time to move on

Ok my friends I'm done - - well for now. Go Ahead , you wanna vent your frustrations , I perfectly understand again /Yes I did I voted for the President ,I'm only human but this IS NOT what I want for America. - - Thanks my Bucketeer's - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
