Furphy out for Friday's game vs Yale β€’ Dec 19, 2023 05:14 PM

@Jhawk69 said in Furphy out for Friday's game vs Yale:

If Timberlake gets too many minutes we could lose this one. Jamari and Jankovic need go step up

that's what I'm saying about Jankovich -why not give him some run with the starters, the way Timberlake has played, can't be any worse and we know he can hit the three, which we need. We were looking - -not now but were looking for addition to roster, might be right there under our nose. With Furphy not there Friday would be the perfect time for Jank to play some , be a good player to brak guys spells - I think it would be worth a look anyways

Team discussion after 10 games β€’ Dec 19, 2023 01:41 PM

You know with the way Timberlake has played when in games , I'm almost to a point where I would just as soon see Coach let Jankovich have some run in Nick's place. Put him in , let him run with the starters for some minutes, might surprise some people running with starters he sure couldn't do any worse shooting the three - -think actually would be better , Nick's confidence is GONE PERIOD. Defensively sure not any worse then Nick. I just think at this point he would be a better threat to shoot the three then Nick.-- -Let the guys run a play or two to open him up for the three , I think it could be done, help the team.

I know Jank has liability but at this point , can't be worse - -never know till you try, Crazy ?- - probably but what the hell. We know he can make them , have seen it in mop up time. We were looking for an add to the roster for depth anyways , and we need three point shooters, he could be right under our nose, I'm not saying major minutes , but in time of foul trouble, stretch's where he can give starter breaks, I mean with what we got right now, what could that possibility hurt. Again can't be any worse then Nick, defense is about the same if not a little better , just sayin -ROCK CHALK

Well we can add Pooka to the list β€’ Dec 19, 2023 12:17 AM

Just keeps going . Read where Pooka got himself arrested , adding his name to former KU players. Beaumont Police tried to stop Pooka , after noticing he had not tags and he kept going a pursuit followed, before Pooka lost control of the car running into a curb. - -A foot pursuit followed , Pooka ran through an open garage , and into t house with the occupants there, search followed and found Pooka hiding in a closet

They charged him with Criminal Trespass - - -evading of police in vehicle & foot - -- &unlawful carrying of a gun. - - it's when they searched the car they found the Gun & marijuana Bond was 23,000

Wow, that is sad.

ya for sure, sad day in the College game .Good player - -I think it said 1994 ? - -when they won NC-- bigger loss for the family for sure, was very active still with NC I think

The National Rankings ,coming out β€’ Dec 18, 2023 06:16 PM

National rankings come out later. I will probably catch some flack , but I'll say I would be perfectly fine if we stay right where we were at last week at 2nd if that happens. I know for some people it makes them all warm and fuzzy if their team is # 1 ,I suppose gives some people cause to thump their chest. yet for me being # 1 at the end of the year is what REALLY matters.

If we did move up like a lot of times happens ,then so be it that's fine but in reality do you really think at this point and time we are really the # 1 team in the Nation ? - -I don't - - -I think realistically Purdue should be # 1 again, I think There is still a valid argument that Arizona should still be # 1 before us at this particular point and time ,I think U Conn could argue about # 1

Purdue is the obvious choice as of today I think , they are higher in just about everything over us - -They have five quad one wins ,they are second across the board in efficiency Board & Resume Metric


While KU is # 10 in Kenpom - -# 12 in the BPI- --& # 16 in Net -- just feel Purdue should be above us as of today. - -As of today not sure if we would beat U Conn if they would of been full capacity. Had their stud out and they had another player , playing on a bad foot through the game -- makes a difference - -nothing wrong being 2nd a of today , I'm fine right where we are right now ,just think that's where we belong

We need to convince Juan that a shot is really just a pass to the basket so that he shoots more.

For sure, w have to get another scorer - -we need him to look to be aggressive

3 seniors, Juan, HD and Kevin doing what seniors are supposed to do. Love it!

This is where experience paid off in the end, they was talking about that in the Radio broadcast earlier wondering if experience would pay off

you just can't miss freebies

KU vs Indiana game chat β€’ Dec 16, 2023 06:48 PM

I am beginning to think like some others have said, I think Juan has got to start looking to score more.- -Look what has he taken 2 shots? - - made them both - -a 3 and then another, He is the 2nd best three point shooter at 45 % -If he doesn't look to score, it's basically 4-5 and they can double on other threats- - just got to become more aggressive

KU vs Indiana game chat β€’ Dec 16, 2023 06:29 PM

Jamari has to see more time. Great pass for a score, plays fundamental solid defense

KU vs Indiana game chat β€’ Dec 16, 2023 06:26 PM

@dylans said in KU vs Indiana game chat:

Other than Furphy, no one crashes the offensive glass. What gives?

Well actually maybe not true. - -KU only has 79 offensive rebounds for the entire year. - -Hunter has 27 of those and no other Jay Hawk has more then 9 offensive rebounds on the year. We just suck on the offensive boards total

KU vs Indiana game chat β€’ Dec 16, 2023 05:50 PM

you already knew they were going to play out their rears today- -that was wa shooting 14 % on the Season

KU vs Indiana game chat β€’ Dec 16, 2023 04:26 PM

I think it is going to be a dog fight. - -can't afford long scoring droughts, KJ has been sick all week , don't know about yesterday Coach said. -- at least their students are gone, Hunter gonna be the focus of their fans attention.- - I guess that rode him pretty good after he went on Twitter more or less announcing Mgbako was coming to KU & then he lands at Indiana hit him up pretty hard on twitter about that.- - Like one KU insider said Hunter just needs to remember this is KU vs Indiana - -not Hunter vs Indiana. - -All hands on deck, will still take KU to cover - -ROCK CHALK

@dylans said in The Portal is out of control:

Oooh maybe some idiot judge will determine they can transfer at any time with no need to sit out. - we could snag some Duke players after they get bounced in the dance to fill out our bench. Smdh

@FarmerJayhawk said in The Portal is out of control:

@jayballer67 NFL or KU for Booker. He can’t transfer without sitting a year

Are you sure about that buddy? - -Cause that's what that ruling by the judge did that restraining order which made it possible for a multi time player be eligible to play without having to sit out a yr. Going to hve another hearing on the 27th of December, but they said it would be surprising if it's changed back.- This ruling allows a transfer to do exactly that without having to sit a yr. I know this is in Basaketball concerning Raquen Battle that is at West Virginia but his is now eligible without having to sit out, I'm sure this pertains to football also , as they were saying how it's going to change things drastically.

Long Night- --Bad Night - -Can I ? β€’ Dec 15, 2023 01:47 PM

@nuleafjhawk said in Long Night- --Bad Night - -Can I ?:

@jayballer67 Prayers for your close friend, Dave. I declare that whatever he's up against, it's no match for our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Back in the day we sang a song in church with these lyrics:

Whose report are you going to believe? We will believe the report of the Lord.

His report says I am healed.

His report says I am filled.

His report says I am free.

His report says VICTORY!

@jayballer67 , believe His report for Dave.

Thank you this i greatly appreciated .I just pray if it's God's will to take him home, then I pray he will do so swiftly, so there is no lingering pain for my friend and his Family can begin to heal, he has suffered already and I know if that's what the Master wants then it shall be done & he is in good hands. Wour words are gold thank you my friend
