Coach talking about UNLV being explosive offensively , got a real stud WR named White -81 receptions & 1,356 yards 7 TD'S - -talks about their scores always include an explosive play, looks like a track meet.

Chiefs season long game thread • Dec 26, 2023 04:23 PM

The Chiefs right now just have A LOT of issues, look at yesterday's game. Just alone in the 1st qtr & just overall game , first three possessions - -minus 18 yards of offense -running backs getting stuffed at the line of scrimmage or losses - -Mahomes sacked twice, you have a false start , you have an offsides , you have 12 men on the field, you have an offensive PI on Kelce, you have another dropped pass from Kelce the Chiefs lead the league with like 27 dropped passes , that's just lack of focus/concentration , Then you have a Mahomes fumble returned for a touchdown , then on the Chiefs vey next possessions Mahomes throws a pick 6- -- Mahomes is at a Career best of INT'S with 14 - -things are just a mess right now

Team discussion after 10 games • Dec 26, 2023 04:13 PM

You know All I hear from broadcasters and such , other ones that suppose to be in the know is - -We can't shoot the ball. & yet w are 2nd in the big 12 in Fg % 51.4 % only behind Baylor who shoots at 52.4 % - -& like has been mentioned we shoot the three at 38.4 % and think they said National average is 36 % again our 3 pt % is 2nd in the Big 12 , only behind Baylor who shoots an insane 44.7 , so what am I missing ?

We have three starters shooting the three really well - -Hunter shooting at 50 % -- Juan is shooting at 45 % - - & Kevin is shooting at 40.8 % - -pretty dam good, we just have to get Juan more involved with scoring the ball, a lot of times just to passive when it comes time scoring

Guaranteed Rate Bowl News • Dec 26, 2023 02:37 PM

@COHawk said in Guaranteed Rate Bowl News:

I agree with you about this team. My point is about so many at all of the universities in bowl games who suddenly decide to sit out a game that the team worked hard to get to. Suddenly an individual's loyalty disappears because he puts his health (which had been on the line every other game during the season) ahead of the team. Of course, I'm old and see things through different glasses!

Understand , partially anyways but you also have to consider that these kids that are sitting out of the bowl , they too was a part of that team that worked hard to get where they are at. An individual has to realize that these kids that are sitting out of these bowl games - -those kids are having to think about their future on down the line - -most , well really all that sit out are players that are trying to prepare for their future.

The NFL , I bet if you were to ask the kids that are playing in these bowl games if they are mad ---feel a lack of loyalty , because they guys are sitting out of these bowls ? --To the player I would say 95 % if not more would say NO , WHY ?- -because they realize these guys are looking to their future. - -The NFL , these other kids they get that , they understand. Are they disappointed that these guys are not playing ? - - I'm sure some of them are- - - but mad? --- no. Why ? -because they get it , they understand.- -What do we think almost to the tea is everyone of these kid's dreams ? - -I'll tell you what , it's to be able to
get that chance at the NFL.
Yes they take that chance of getting hurt , but why when your at the end of your college career and looking to the future- -why gamble on your future ? -- Not only is the NFL for these guys but just like other people - -it's their job , this is what they will do for their living, they just get to enjoy the love of the game while they get paid for it also. Plus some of these guys already are married , maybe have some kids already, they are looking out for their family --their future. -Loyalty is great but also look at it this way. If you were for instance you had a job had been there for some time and you had the opportunity arise as to where another Business came along offered you a better paying job, a nice increase in wages & benefits tell me - -would you stay with your present job because of loyalty or take the better job offered you with higher wages ? - -thinking of your family, I know what I would do- --just saying. Am I disappointed they not gonna play ? - -sure I am, make things harder for us but am I mad- - -NA , I am appreciative of their time here and wish them nothing but the best in the future, they will always be a great Jay Hawk to me

Writing this today since tomorrow we will likely be in good part occupied.

I have really enjoyed the conversations we have had this year, and hope you all have time to relax, and enjoy a bit of a break this week.

Looking forward to the conference grind. Like many years, the Big 12 will be a challenge and we enter conference season with plenty of questions. Should be an excellent source of intrigue.

Merry Christmas my friend , hope you can enjoy a very merry Christmas, but most of all be safe. I'm just looking forward to next game up - - Beating the Dog Doo out of Wichita St.

Also getting amphed up for our bowl game against UNLV - - ROCK CHALK

Watching that FAU vs Arizona game, man we just look so unathletic compared to top teams right now.

ya I've thought the same. Even though Arizona got beat I think they would give us ALL kinds of trouble,-- I also think Kentucky is really improves, gonna be if not close to thee now gotten a lot better, just quick athletic - -Another team that if we played now would give us fits - - -Deep bench, of course anybody has a deep bench compared to us lol.. Still like our group though , just afraid gonna get really wore down later.

@BeddieKU23 said in 2023-2024 Statistics:

KU moved down 3 more spots to #16 on Kenpom for winning. You cannot make this up

I dunno I agree with you but I heard/read somewhere the reason we are moving down is because we are not blowing these teams like Yale and other middle tier schools out. Our turnovre/steal ratio is down in the middle 100's compared to last years top 15, just some crazy excuses why they are moving us down.---It's ok we will just still keep winning, screw their stats

I think I like Hunters NIL Deal lol • Dec 23, 2023 12:48 PM

Read an article about Hunters latest NIL. Hunter landed NIL Deal with Kansas Citys Minsky's Pizza. , a take more or less with Hunter averaging a Double , Double in Basketball they said it's only fitting
that his own Pizza Shares the Honor.

His Pizza is Called Hunter's Double , Double lol. It consists of - -pepperoni - - -Chicken - -Wisconsin Mozzarella - -a Double Helping of Smithville smoked Bacon - -and double sides of hidden valley Ranch dipping sauce . - - YUM, I could go for that.

His Pizza it stated was available in all of KC's & Lawrence locations. -- Minsky's said that after launching Hunter's Double Double just over a week ago that more then a Thousand have been sold. Makes me hungry , gonna have to try it out

KU vs the smart people game chat • Dec 23, 2023 12:29 PM

Boy, I just wanted to say , as much as I like Juan and his approach of his game after hearing him in this interview with David Lawrence my admiration and respect just shot through the roof 100 % more.
Part he was talking about how when he got pulled out , that how was kinda acting like a little baby and pouting for a minute but then when he went back in knew he had to do better yet that wasn't the impressive part of his talk.

Lawrence was asking him about did he remember what or did he have a favorite present that he had got ? - Then they ask him what his plans were for his time off, and he talked about being able to go home and spend time with family. Yet the best part he was talking about was FAMILY , and talking about how he just wanted to be able to give his family some money, saying that really he just like saving his NIL money and doesn't really want anything so he just saves his NIL and he wants to be able to help his Granny and would like to buy her a house and look out for her. -Was just really impressed by this young man and his morals, & values. Impressive stuff , talking about when he was little they didn't have a lot and how his mom had to work so much and his granny working a lot and that he just wanted to make sure give them some money all he wanted . What a great young man with great values and morals and love for this family. -We got us a winner for sure

KU vs the smart people game chat • Dec 23, 2023 03:04 AM

ya Hunter just didn't look engaged tonight at all, but Kevin picking up the slack

KU vs the smart people game chat • Dec 23, 2023 02:55 AM

I'm really starting to wonder when Juan is open, WHY isn't he shooting that three more ? - -Hitting 46 % for the year, you got to take what a team gives you

Conference realignment • Dec 22, 2023 11:47 PM

Keep points that the FSU attorneys are focusing on and going to file - -Breach of Contract , Unenforceable withdrawal penalties , Violation of public policy , Restraint of Trade.

FSU saying not so much filing this for the GOR but filing because of the issues they have has concerning Actions of leadership over the last 10 years and the future 13 ,
Arguing GOR of the ACC withdrawal fees violate Anti Trust Law in Florida. - -and question the ridiculous increase from 21 million GOR 10 years ago to 572 Million GOR now.

Conference realignment • Dec 22, 2023 11:41 PM

@mayjay said in Conference realignment:

I guess the theory is that the exit fees are meant to be a form of liquidated damages, as the GOR might be. Liquidated damages are damaages for breach of contract that are agreed to in the contract itself because the parties agree that it would be imprecise and hard to calculate damages after a breach actually occurs. CBS has a penalty in the amount of several million in their contracts with everyone involved in Survivor to make sure no one discloses anything, and it has deterred contestants from spilling the beans (even the contract itself has leaked only once in 45 seasons). The amount is huge because no one knows how premature disclosure would affect the ratings and those ratings are consistently high.

There have been many attempts to get liquidated damages tossed out as so excessive they are really punitive damages, which generally do not exist for breach of contract. I would suspect FSU could be pretty convincing that their departure would not hurt anyone to a level anywhere near half a billion bucks.

I will be intrigued if, after bowl season where ESPN controls virtually everything, FSU raises antitrust and restraint of trade issues due to ESPN effectively controlling all the schools' tv rights through the GOR provision. If the ACC admin has some sweetheart side deal with ESPN that brings nothing to the schools, or just benefits for some, the cries of collusion and corruption will be loud and bitter.

Looking forward to it!

Espn has till think they said till Feb, o 2015 to exercise their option to extend their agreement to 2036 - -so far hey haven't exercised those rights. - -Thing is the ACC President signed the agreement with Espn without consulting any of the ACC schools, . People asking ell-- -hy did they sign this agreement, to which was said they just felt so desperate to have the Network they had to have something-- which the ACC president did without really consulting the schools.

Conference realignment • Dec 22, 2023 08:49 PM

@FarmerJayhawk said in Conference realignment:

@jayballer67 based on what? Like what’s the “one weird trick” to get out of the GOR that nobody has found up until now?

I do think they’ll settle, but Maryland ended up paying over 60% of the original exit fees and such when they left.

That being said, it’s so early yet it’s impossible to say. Like we’re still in the fighting over venue stage (Florida vs. NC). And if the judge in this declaratory says yeah you’re on the hook for all 572 then whew that changes things entirely.

One of the things that FSU is using in their suit is that the whole GOR is fraudulent.--FSU signed the GOR in 2016 with the understand that Espn said that they would not renegotiate anything unless
the acc agreed to the extension of 2036, the President of the ACC took it upon himself and signed to the Espn agreement without consulting ANY of the ACC schools , now Espn is not locked into paying the Acc anything after 2027, they could just walk away from the ACC. - -FSU saying this constitutes a fraudulent GOR .

As far as the insane 570 Million GOR and exiting , like they said how could ANYONE expect a School to pay those kind of fees when you only make like 45 million of revenue a year ? - that's just total bullshit. Florida St alrady ha a place to land that's the BIG, like they said FSU would not go ahead and take this kind of action unless they had a landing spot - sure not going to be the SEC they said because they was talking about things with the SEC and the College Football playoffs.. - - They are looking for the settlement not having to pay 570 million that's not even feasible/realistic -totallt fradulant GOR

Conference realignment • Dec 22, 2023 07:38 PM

Not only that , thee will be vey quality teams left with no place to land and if the Big 12 is smart they will offer to remain relevant , if they sit back and take no action then we become the next on the chopping
block. We have to stay active in alignment for security of the conference , at the present are in a much better spot then the ACC , general consensus is Fla St popular belief is that FSU lands with the BIG , the question is who joins them ? -most believe it's either Miami or Clemson - -Then strong talk about UNC to the SEC , FSU wins this your going to see mass exodus.

there will be quality teams that will leave teams tryin to find a landing spot. - -Pitt & Louisville seem to be a popular choice to land in the Big 12 , I think if people think that Yormark is going to sit back and do nothing on this- - that's just foolish, sa active as he has been and how he is trying to promote the Big 12 by such things as going to Rutgers Park - - going into New Mexico to play - -trying to establish in all four time zones , he is looking out for the best interest of the Big 12. - -He will be on the phone if he hasn't already been talking to teams from the ACC. - -keep up with the Jone's fellas or get left behind. Then you face the challenge of being left out and end up in some irrelevant Conference when the Big 12 implodes from lake of action.

Brett will continue to push the totally separate package for Basketball a completely separate media deal by it's self- -that's a smart move, it may not be the # 1 money maker but it sure the hell isn't going to hurt. - -If Gonzaga and yes there are still talks about them joining - our Basketball will just be that much stronger and that raises media coverage/money market shares will go up. - -KU - - Arizona--- -Baylor - - Houston - -Gonzaga - -and others just a monster.

It will be aawhile but not that long we looking at 2025 possibly or if the major big brands or most exit the ACC after this - -FSU , Clemson , Miami -Virg--and ESPN cuts ties with the ACC which hs been mentioned - lok out.

Talk is the ACC and ESPN doesn't want this to drag out as then you start looking at multiple lawsuits against the ACC & possibly ESPN - I really can't explain that part you would have to read it, or hear but ESPN doesn't want a bunch of legal battle -- will be inteesting

Conference realignment • Dec 22, 2023 07:15 PM

FSU has got this won

Conference realignment • Dec 22, 2023 06:44 PM

When all the dust settles, in the end -- we will see the Big 1 will benefit from this with the ACC

Conference realignment • Dec 22, 2023 04:39 PM

Mercy Was listening to the podcast and man did FSU land the bomb shell on the ACC. - -7 count lawsuit, none of the Board members voted against the suit , they are saying this whole thing isn't about winning -it's about settlement. Reducing the penalty

Being said the penalty of 572 million is insane and no way that gets upheld that the ACC will have to settle for much less, FSU more or less saying this huge GOR and other things were almost forced under duress
Word around is FSU will win this easily, and chances are this may not even see a court , that there will be a settlement. The ACc will amend and come up with a settlement cost for AL ACC schools if they want to depart.

They are waiting to hear and think could be soon the next schools to speak up very well could be today - -Clemson & Miami , they way they think this ends up , then any ACC members will be able to exit with the settlement cost instead of the insane 570 million.

Another thing is ESPN can very easily walk away in 2027 from the ACc - -their network , work away completly -the Implosion is begginning

Conference realignment • Dec 21, 2023 11:42 PM

@FarmerJayhawk said in Conference realignment:

Will be fascinating to see if they can get out of the GOR. Thats like half a billion when you include the exit fee

They won't end up paying near that much. Seen to much talk- they chances are will settle or a lot less. Will still be plenty but nothing close to that. - -After they leave- - -or announce or get invitation to BIG 12 or SEC-- you cn take it to the bank the implosion of the ACC begins

As a KU alum, I am excited to see Joel teamed up with Oubre and Marcus Morris, three Jayhawks playing together.

Philly has pretty much wasted Jo'jo's career. They have not brought in any legit help to win the Championship, Kelly ands Moeeis are fine but he needs anothre stud to win it all to go with him - -Harden was a joke -- Simmons was a waste

Guaranteed Rate Bowl News • Dec 21, 2023 07:03 PM

I think Devin ends up entering the Draft . Well no maybe I'd say mor like 50/50 right now. A lot of things to consider, Average life span in the NFL for running backs is very shorts-- -3 years they said I think in a way he might wanna come back though and become the all time rushing leader being a home town kid, has been mentioned before. Can't blame him either way

Got a really great start to signings. - -looks like we got or committed 17 High School and 3 portal players. -- Just waiting on only 4 left high school kids. - One big one yet to send his letter- -Austin Alexander- -- come on Big fella we need you in the Nation. - one of the top CB's i the 224 class, hs offers from Iowa , Michigan USC & Wisc to name a few

We got a couple of our BIG STUDS already - -we got our QB , first one to sign at like 608 this morning - -HUGE, kid going to be incredible. , some services name him a the MOP in the State of Michigan , led his team to the 6 A title, 3rd ranked overall player in the State of Michigan.

Then we got out Big time player- - Deshawn Warner this kid - -wow - -been invited to the All American game , had 16 sacks this season , highest rated recruit KU has ever gotten in the inernet eera
ranked the # 148th best overall player in the Nation - -held off Ohio St & Michigan for him- - they tried really hard to get him to visit -but NOPE

One other that was a huge get in this class is Dakyus Brinkley -4 *- DE- - incredible player. Can't wait to see Warner on one end and Brinkly on the othre - -mercy.

Team discussion after 10 games • Dec 20, 2023 02:05 PM

Mercy there are some people in here that are really confused all I can say is I'm sorry. -Yet there are people who says Jankovich should never see nay minutes/real minutes over Timberlake, Let me clarify if they are thinking I'm talking about 15-20 minute Jankovich then umm YA , but in a relief role, if you put him on the floor with the four starters, in NO WAY shaper or form is he worse at this point and time of the Season worse then Timberlake. - if you think he is a mistake or a turnover looking for a place to happen - -then look no further on the floor then Timberlake. - - Timberlake right now is a classic example a version of Joe Yesfu. - -I'm saying you put Jank out there with the other four starters for 3-4-5 minute stretch to give El Marko a break he would be fine. - -

Now am I saying put him on the floor over Jamari ? - -Oh Hell no. Yet between Timberlake & Jankovich - - Jankovich HANDS DOWN. At this time and point of the season Jankovich hits the three better and for sure is not any worse defensively. Hell you don't know if the turnovers Jank makes is his fault or others, as all you see him in is with other mop up time player. Does that happen when he is on the floor with the regulars ? - I just think right now he is a better back up for spot minutes then Timberlake who hs shown nothing and his confidence is gone. --If he shoots his first three and misses - - -GET HIM OUT cause his confidence went right out the door. Agin to those confused people I'm not saying major minutes - -BUT he could be on the floor for those 3-5 minutes and be just fie and a much better option then Timberlake at this presnt time

Nah. Nick is definitely capable of better than how he has played thus far. Whatever the reason, P5 adjustments, good ol' fashioned slump, etc, I think the best way to break out of it is to keep playing him and try and boost some confidence. Giving his minutes to Jank would be an even bigger hit to the confidence. We will need him this year, hopefully he can get right soon.

Jank should never get real minutes. I know you weren't suggesting it of course but I've seen it mentioned here and there...and just no.

I responded to the comment but then decided to bite my tongue and just leave that alone, everybody has an opinion I've voiced mine so I'm good

@wissox I hate watching foul mismatches like this. It just seems obvious that refs in situations like this will call it one way. We get some like that too at AFH of course, but it's kind of unfair to watch a team just get screwed over by the zebras. 25-12 foul count right now.

Ya phantom calls, - -now if you ak Kentucky -KU hires the refs for games at home AND on the road lol

Team discussion after 10 games • Dec 20, 2023 12:50 AM

If you get a chance go to you tube, there is a really good regular podcast, talks All kind of College basketball - -the podcast is called the field of 68 ,- -they talk on different occasions about our boys, was talking today and said - -Yes Ku has flaws , still trying to figure out their 2 guard , talking about how we have 4 studs and then have a bench that should be like the 9th player

Yet they say even with the flaws he says F - - - it, no matter KU just gets it done. - -He gives and example he says just like the Miami heat , you getting 48 minutes of the heat -- Well Ku is going to play 40 minutes of Jayhawk ball , saying your going to have to beat KU as KU is not going to beat themselves , brought out - -brings out solid points on the team, talking about how Juan hit a huge three at Indiana - -How El Marko hit a huge three at Indiana - -Jamari hit a huge three at Indiana, & Kevin hit a huge three at Indiana.

Then here is an interesting point one of them said - -over the last two years when DeJuan scores Seven points - -KU is 23-1 - -that's pretty impressive. Brought up another point saying KU is making 72.9 % of their buckets off assists- -saying that's just a stupid number- - - a silly number. --Finished one of them said on last Saturday 100--- out of 103 teams probably at assembly hall would of lost that game to Indiana
would of lost that game - -KU they said was probably one of only three teams that would of won Saturday. - Love this podcast
