@BeddieKU23 said in Less than 1 week until game action!!:

Furphy will not play Sunday. He's now behind a good bit even when he gets back. Self down to 8 guys now although Zach will play in the 2 Exhibitions.

I will be absolutely shocked if our lack of depth doesn't hurt us especially later in the season.

why is he not playing ? - And I think you are 100 % right , we know what a grueling season can be in the Big 12 - -really physical and with a really short bench if we have any additional injuries , or just the typical drain from playing such a hard stretch - we will be find for the part maybe even in the middle but come down the stretch and without the starters getting much of a reprieve , no rest it's going to take it's toll

@AsadZ said in Hesela sounds ready to launch rockets:

Have you seen any evidence of babies being beheaded and killed?

This was a fake news, even Israeli government had retracted it.

Hamas needs to be strongly condemned for their heinous acts. But as a general rule it is always best to verify information before accepting it and spreading it.

At the same time Israeli government needs to be strongly condemned for their inhumane practices and creating genocide in Palestine.

Hemaas needs to be highly condemned for using humans for shields - - yes we have seen the dead bodies of babies from their initial attacks we have seen the blood strewn walls of where innocent teenagers that went to this concert and then these idiots attacks on Oct 7th how they retreated to their bomb shelters and trapped where these sadistic shits cornered them and slaughtered innocent defenses teens

We have heard from US reporters on the ground there that has seen the results and refused to show the images because of the graphic nature. - If you think these sick shits deserve any pity after what they have done on Israels home ground -I'm so sorry for you. - -We have heard the interview from the elderly ladies that were hostages by Hamas how poorly and brutally they were treated.

Then you have Hamasa trying to say it was Israel that had shelled the hospital which almost instantly proven to be incorrect. - There is no way in hell that anyone can defend what these morons have done and wanting to do. Wanting to eliminate a human race? - -Seriously - -that is Israel ground. -they have every right to defend it just like the United States would have every right by any means to defend our home land

Weather may play some role in the game tomorrow question is will it benefit us or hurt us ? - - Calling high of 43 degrees,70 % of rain in the afternoon - -but when in the afternoon is going to play a role. - Winds out of the North East 10-15 MPH.

I think if the rain moves in early then might be more beneficial for us then Oklahoma, just might effect their passing game some. - -I think that we might be better in our running game a even Oklahoma insiders have said they have not been able to really get their running game going a lot this year. -- -I know it's a stretch but hey any advantage we can get never hurts.

Bottom line though I'm just afraid they a little to much - I think it will be like Oklahoma 35- -KU 24

@DanR said in Hesela sounds ready to launch rockets:

@jayballer67 I'm not sure what you're talking about. Can't even get US citizens out of that Rafah crossing into Egypt yet. It's not an "option" or "chance" for anyone.

Everyone is locked in at this point in an area 7 miles wide from Lawrence to Topeka. So, imagine your million people in Topeka are told to head to Lawrence to be safe from bombing and a ground invasion. And if you want no part of any of this, you can't even get into Johnson County. That's how f*cked up this is.

We are FOR SURE hearing different accounts of the goings on. The report I've heard that it has been opened for people to leave IF they want into Egypt. - -some don't want to leave , I'll just leave this part alone now because this is something not gonna get into a he said /she said - no matter the circumstances People just can't expect Israel to sit back and let Hemas constantly launch rockets , rape and kill babies and do nothing. Israel has been more then patient holding back on their invasion of Gaza. -Today Hemas launch rockets into Tel Aviv Israel that hit a hotel , no matter how it goes there is going to be A LOT of deaths

@DanR said in Hesela sounds ready to launch rockets:

@benshawks08 At the bare minimum, letting people actually leave Gaza would make it less of a disgusting situation at this point.

they have had the chance to leave go out from Gaza into Egypt Israel has been delaying their invasion into Gaza because of US request to delay. I think it's still an option if people want to leave & some don't , but if they do that's an option to go through to .Egypt

@nuleafjhawk said in Jalon Daniels health:

@jayballer67 I hope Bean makes us all look stupid on Saturday. And we're like "Jalon WHO?"

ya that would be nice - -would love for that to happen. - vey key to be able to run the ball , and control some clock.

Boy it just sucks about Jalon's Health, & this is not to be meant as a dig at Jason. I love Jason, I think there are a lot of Schools he could start , have even heard opposition say as much - -yet it's just sad to see the talent of Jalon going to waste even though no fault of his own.

We could sure use him this Saturday - - we could sure use him every Saturday , such high hopes for our Season now has to be tempered Again I have trust in Jason for sure, but also being honest Jalon is still the better QB.

Jason has played wall against Oklahoma --yet would like our odds better with Jalon.-- I think once again our chance's come with our defense , just have to play the cards were dealt I think once again our chances come from the defensive side- -they have JUST GO TO stand up , make some plays, get key stops.

I think Jason will play well, actually would like to see them have some more RPO'S and let Jason run, the kid can fly. I dunno just seems like our play selection just hasn't had that many calls for the QB to actually run the ball on the option this er s in the past . Would like to see him pull the ball and go, try and take a little more advantage of those feet. We have seen him use them before.

I just feel sorry for Jalen , think he had a chance to continue after college somewhere s a quality backup, Teams are really gonna back away with his health history, not going to want to take that chance with or for a back up QB. - --Going to be cold and hearing rainy. I've seen high temp of 44 and good chance of rain. - -Don't know if that would help us or not. Let's hope the guys unite and play their ass off/compete - -ROCK CHALK

We now have these Iranian proxi's launching attacks on US air base because we are standing by our Allies Israel , Iran saying that id the US continuers to support Israel then ew have no where there Missiles can not reach. - -Are we suppose to turn our back on Israel because of this ? - Absolutely not, President Biden has told ALL countries if they want to take this opportunity to take advantage of this situation , He just said DON'T. - -DON'T - DON'T - -DON'T and yet they continue to launch attacks against the US bases. -- If it gets to engaging Iran how many missiles should we launch?

If Iran can't get the message thats been delivered and they continue their assault, right now they take this as a weakness in the US, if they can't comprehend English - -if they continue - then it's time to take other action. - -If we are not careful this situation could go from reginal conflict - -to Global.

@FarmerJayhawk said in Hesela sounds ready to launch rockets:

One of Hamas’s key strategies is to spread disinformation about casualties to run out the clock on Israel. Perfect example was the hospital strike. About 4 seconds after they hit their own hospital they had a very precise casualty count, which on its face was ridiculous. That didn’t stop the UN and other clown shoes from accusing Israel of everything but the Holocaust (because a lot of UN membership denies it happened).

Hamas knows it’s a sitting duck behind their hostages and Palestinian human shields if Israel chooses to carry out a serious invasion. To avoid near term destruction they have to take advantage of gullible organizations who’ll take their accounts at face value.

War is hell and because of Hamas’s choices in waging this war, many, many civilians will die unless Israel unilaterally stands down. But they have every right to occupy Gaza and rip Hamas out root and branch.

Israel WILL NOT stand down , nor would I expect them to. - People know if and when they invade Gaza their is going to be many injuries, and death. It's a cold hard fact of War , some things are inevitable

They have done things trying ways to get citizens out of Gaza, there is no way they can go in without injuries. Gaza is so heavily populated there is just no way to do what the need to do without causalities. -Israel will suffer massive causalities themselves- - -their soldiers will lose their lives. Hamas has to be stopped and this is exactly what Israel wants to do.

Israel has every right to defend their land-- their people, who do we think controls Gaza ? who is the governing body in Gaza ? - -It's Hamas, and who is it that supplies Hemas with more weapons that they need - It's -IRAN . they wants a confrontation with the US - -what better way then to attack one of our strongest Allies. - -The People in Gaza, where there are a lot of Palestinians , is governed by Hamas , now those people who voted or agreed they wanted Hamas are now finding out how these cowards are hiding behind human shield's, butchering people - - they don't care. now hearing that IRAN wants some of the hostages

The cold facts are in war there is loss of life. Ideally Israel could use their invasion without a single loss but that just doesn't happen. - - Bottom line is though Israel ha evrey right to defend their land safe from terriorists

what link was you looking to open ?

there is a lot of people pushing stronger reaction to what's going on.- -14 attacks on US military bases in the last week. - -We al know where these attacks are coming from. Hemas is backed by Iran - - Hesbula is backed by Iran, Iran is the one stepping up the attacks - -what was our response? - -verbal - -DON'T, this is being said as US showing a weakness and these guys are recognizing this and are wanting to take advantage.

People are saying we need a stronger response take stronger action. -cut off the oil whatever it takes. - We simply can't just keep saying Don't , Don.t Don't when these atrocities keep happening. We have Russia, & Chin meeting they also have interest now thinking this is the time that the US is weak. -Why ? - Because our only response is DON'T China has moved more ships into the area -It's time to show Iran why we are the power in the West - Iran - -you don't understand Verbal ? - -you don't understand English - -well let me say , you don't want to wake a giant Bear. If we are not care this could very easily go from a regional conflict - - to a Global war.

We have Jewish younger people right here on our home land trying to improve their lives, gee a degree at College Campus and they can't even do that. They have to fear for their lives here against idiots that are so mis informed - willing to be half not even sure why they are protesting all they know it's a way to miss class. The Jewish people have to worry about hate crimes right here - - -that's fricken sad makes our Nation look bad.

We hear countless accounts from people who were there on October 7th when loved ones were taken in he next room. w have seen & heard of how these sick F - - - run knives through babies chest - - raping women - -beheading elderly -and laughing about it. -these are cowards hiding behind the hostages. We have heard interviews from a couple of elderly women after they were freed talking about how they were treated, Talked about being beaten just gruesom. Then you have these College kids protesting against Israel chanting kill the jews- -kill the jews -- some want to back these shit - -Are you fricken nuts ?

They said out of the White House that we are very , very , very worrie about this getting out of hand - -Really ? - -it's alredy out of hand - -enough talk time to step up - -Do something

I did a little trolling yesterday of the kitty's. - -100 % right read where they got beat by SMU off their boards - - 86-76. - -was said they got beat to death inside on the board- - - Ahh I'm sorry.

Tomlin didn't play, something going on there, not playing till it's cleared up. - -said he may have crossed the line - - -something to do with the NBA, not sure, but that is what was mentioned.- -Not sure what that might be unless it had something to do with their workouts

Found this interesting goes to show it's really not the offensive side where we are lacking right now. - - saw this from Fox Football

KU ha more yards per offensive play then the top 4 ranked teams in the Nation.

KU averages per offensive play : 7.15- - -- - -# 1 ranked Georgia - -7.13 - - - #2 Florida St - -6.9 - - -# 3 Michigan - -6.87 -- -& # 4 Ohio St - -6.59 . Thats some pretty dam good company. - -goes to show where a ot of our problem lies - - it's our Defense

Listening to Swain Flaherty podcast tonight. They say tomorrow is a big day for Jalen should really know more, neither one gonna come right out and say Jalen won't play.

I just got this gut feeling MAYBE we might see Jalen , may not start but might see him come in limited or for a stretch see how it goes.

Swain pointed out that for the game and I agree with this - -KU needs to come out fast, can't have any of these slow starts - -if Ku can hang around make it a 4th quarte game then I think it's any body's game can't afford to have to try and play catch up the entire game where there is pressure to score. Defense just HAAS to show up , make some plays , make some key stops.-- get some pressure. The bye week helped, resting some guys getting some guys to recover from some niks - Defense has just got to make a stand/show

@StLJhawk said in Christan and Nuggets off and running:

Ha! I never watch NBA, but am on a business trip in Atlanta, turned the tv on and the LA Denver game popped up. Saw CB and watched as he totally swatted LeBron shot away. It was so cool I came to share and saw your post. Woohoo for Jayhawks in the NBA!

yes he did. He had James looking at imprint of Spalding on his head. -No eye popping stats but he does some good things. Braun played 19 minutes - - 5 points- -- 3 rebounds - -& 2 assists and the block.

Jokic was just typical Jokic. - - 29 points - - -13 rebounds - - & 11 assists the guy is a stud

NBA starting , mercy those rings the guys got mercy. - - It ought to be illegal for the things Jokic can do. - 19 points at half - - eight rebounds and like 5 assists, a guy that size just shouldn't be able to do what he does, really good passer.

As far sa our boy Christan : - -8 minutes the first half, just one point - -one rebound - -but probably right at there at the top of his young NBA career -slapping LeBron's shoot away - -hell of a block

@FarmerJayhawk said in Jalon Daniels health:

Bean is going to go up on my Mt. Rushmore of the Leipold era. Dude could start at over half of P5 schools yet he chose to come back. Great teammate as well.

Not to many better back up QB's a good as. Jason----He may make some mistakes , but still really good , and the boy can run, not throw to bad either lol

@nuleafjhawk said in Jalon Daniels health:

So, if Daniels was not on the roster and Bean led us to a 5-2 record so far, considering our recent past - would anyone be complaining about Bean? He can get it done.

Jason absolutely lit Oklahoma up last yr , if he gets any help like let's say , oh maybe the defense shows up we will be all right. If the defense decides to take the day off like they did at Oklahoma St were in huge trouble. -Jason Bean did not get us beat at Okie St

@FarmerJayhawk said in Jalon Daniels health:

Bean is taking the 1 reps. Time to flick it

Dam

Got Vernon's news letter in my E-Mail today. - He said from the sources he has talked to said Jalen had a good week of football activities last week, but said he still couldn't say if Jalen would be able to play Saturday.

He said at this point he would have to give it a 60/40 that Jalen won't be able to play, but saying probably nothing going to be let out till late in the week. - Lance at his news conference had stated right now he said Jalen was doubtful to Questionable but that Coach was still optimistic.

Dam we need him back. -there was a post that talked about a procedure might have to be done on him if he doesn't improve soon & if that's the case - - - there goes your Season, don't know if we would win another game this Season if he is out for the year -I sure the hell hope not.

@wissox said in Less than 1 week until game action!!:

I haven't heard if someone is televising but I'd imagine so. The thing is, I will be in Zion National Park and so for once, something more important than a KU game on TV is happening!

Anytime it's Illinois I am more interested than usual because of it being my home state and I used to be a Illini fan. Be interesting to me to see this years version of the Illini.

It shows on my KU Basketball Schedule off my computer that the game will be shown on the Big 10 Network.

@FarmerJayhawk said in Hesela sounds ready to launch rockets:

The failure to correct the Israel Bombed a Hospital and Killed 500 Civilians story is a national scandal. And ya know, maybe Hamas shouldn't use hospitals to store and deploy weapons.

The IDF is going to inflict significant casualties on its own forces to surgically take out Hamas, who doesn't follow any rules of war. The IDF could level Gaza in a few days, which would accomplish a goal. But instead they're going to send their own soldiers to their graves to do what Hamas is too cowardly to do.

It is going to be quite the challenge when ground forces go in they have to undertake the major challenge of hand to hand combat in like they said almost 300 miles of underground tunnels that Hemas cowers in. The swifter Israel can go in and take these idiots out- -the better we will be. - -Now being reported that goes against what was being said what was being said over the weekend that our president has said he haas not tried to get Israel to restrain from launching it's invasion.

@benshawks08 said in Hesela sounds ready to launch rockets:

The things I’ve seen have not so much been pro Hamas but instead trying to also hold Israel accountable for the atrocities they’ve committed as well. The bombing of the hospitals being the thing I’ve seen brought up most. Saying Israel shouldn’t bomb hospitals and should be held accountable for or at least not praised for what is clearly a war crime is very different than saying Hamas is good and has done no wrong in the situation. More than one thing can be true and in situations like this, is almost a guarantee that both sides have committed evil acts. That is not to say those evil acts are equivalent. But the response to a war crime is not commit a war crime right back.

Sounds like you may be seeing different reports and accounts than I am though.

It was pointed out/proven that the bombing the rocket that hit that hospital was not from Israel -it was Hamasthat mis fired saying if it came from a Israel incoming there would of ben a huge crater, there has been no war crimes committed by Israel

Looks like possibly I would say K/State just got a huge boost to play in the championship game again.

Texas QB Quinn Ewers has a grade 2 AV joint sprain on his throwing shoulder and will be out 4-6 weeks -makes then a lot more vulnerable to make the Championship game

This war in Israel could get really ugly, Well actually already is. This thing could become global if we are not careful. Have heard and read how Russia, & China & Iran are all playing a part to some degree in this. How American military and American bases now being attacked -surprised they haven't mentioned N Korea.

I can understand both sides to a degree on the Gaza front, When I say agree with both I'm talking about the United Stated & Israel. Biden wants Israel to hold back still have some restraint before launching massive ground strike hoping to get a few more hostages out. - -Yet like some are saying Israel absolutely should lf and has the right entirely to defend it's land.

Thing is that i DO NOT GET is these dam protests on American College about Anti Israel. people saying Hamas IS NOT slaughtering people and just doing what they need to do. - - BULL SHIT.. they are cowards hiding behind human hostages - -there is talk that the IDF is going to release un edited video from Hamas soldiers helmets of what they did. How can anyone condone people that set people on fire, cut the eyes out of the elderly, video of rapping women and laughing about it. running knives through the chests of babies ?- these are some sick cowardly f - - - - and need to be taken out. Kinda scary

@nuleafjhawk said in Fox Big Noon Kickoff pregame coming to KU:

@jayballer67 I was encouraged by the UCF game, but probably shouldn't be.

Yes, I understand where your coming from on that. Yet as you know it's usually not good to try and get into comparative scores and such. - I was looking at the same things & then I got more logical and tried to look at a Broader scale.

First yes I thought well we just pretty well curb stomped UCF , then thought well wait for just a second or two. Let's look at some things, true they didn't run like that against us, and very true cause coming right out of an Oklahoma article saying the reporter said it's time to face it - - Oklahoma has no running game. - we ran wild on them. - -Now watch Saturday they will stuff our running game - - lol - - hope not.

Le's look at just a couple of things to try and keep in mind. First : - -when we played UCF , Plumlee-Rice didn't play, he played a series, against OU he played the entire game and made a big difference. Second , When we played UCF we played here at home - -When they played Oklahoma , they played at home. - So that's a couple of things Like I said at first I was thinking well hell if UCF plays them like that then we should have a really good shot - -Don't get me wrong we very well could, hoping the Booth will be packed and loud - -FOR US. we don't need Oklahoma fans outnumbering KU fans.

Hoping Jalen goes and hope our line can maintain blocks for pass protection & creting holes for our RB'S - -ROCK CHALK

Last year we got game day , THIS YEAR Fox Big Noon pregame coming to KU. - -Kinda interesting thought they would probably be at the site of Utah/Oregon but works for me.

Just hope we don't lay an egg , and get blown out. - Jalen is a must, I didn't remember last year think it said we lost 52-42. - Gotta have ALL our guns ready , Defense has to stand up make a statement.

Oklahoma has had trouble running the ball this year according to an Oklahoma article , so we don't need them having a record setting day running the ball. Each and every KU player needs to bring their hard hat
on and take accountably. - Need our backs to break out - -play smart. - -Special teams needs to play better, guess I'm just looking for that one perfect game - - - like I sai if we want any chance -we have to have Jalen. - Time to go to work - - Booth needs to be packed & really loud. - - -ROCK CHALK

Ladies really turned it on after that 1st set. - Won pretty convincingly -4 players with double digit kills. - -only thing negative was their service errors like 13- got to get that fixed.

after losing 18-25 - -KU won - -25-14 - - -25-16 - - -& 25-15. -- - -Good win Ladies

Well they looked a lot better 2nd set compared to 1st. - -dominant in 2nd set 25-14. TCU pretty good , , we just played a lot better - got to get it done

Our Ladies on at 2 today against TCU .A chance for guys to watch our Volleyball team , they pretty dam good. - -13 - -4 on the Season and ranked 14th in the Nation

Just shows how strong the league. BYU really Good , / Texas obviously good , - TCU is only team that took Texas to the full 5 sets - -I've gotten really wrapped up in the ladies the past 6 years or so . London Davis, Carolyn Bien , - -Enaldy really good and others . Take a minute check him out. Dam they hit the hell out of that ball lol

Has anyone heard anything about JD-6 this week ? - -how he is progressing , not sure if it will make a huge difference but our chances are better if he can go then not. Just wondering if anyone had heard anything about him or not.

@nuleafjhawk said in Interesting Games Today?:

@jayballer67 It's because their uniforms were red and not burnt orange

Boy isn't that the truth. - -The Houston RB had clearly gotten inside the 9 yard line with his forward progress just total BS

Houston 1000% got screwed on that spot. the RB had made the 1st for sure. would of give them a 1st & goal. - -Not saying by any means would of won the gam ,But who knows what happens with Ewers out of the game. Think for sure it would of went OT, then after that all bets off. - -They got screwed.

@Texas-Hawk-10 said in Interesting Games Today?:

@KirkIsMyHinrich said in Interesting Games Today?:

Please God, let this be UCF's first B12 win.

Do we really want OU coming into Lawrence pissed off after losing to UCF?

No, I don't think so.

Na , if there is a problem Johnnie Boy will make up while Cooper is their with all the other recruits for their so call craziness

@FarmerJayhawk said in 2024 recruits:

I’m pretty sure this is a wrap on the HS class with Bogo heading to OU

Would of loved to have him, but this is still a nice pick up. one of the better players in the region according to the article. -Can always use another Big Ugly - -Depth

What has happened to Jethro ? - Basketball right on us and no Jethro.-- Haven't heard a peep out of him all summer, Anyone have any idea where he went ? - -Just Curious. miss hearing from him.

Our exhibition game against Illinois is 11 days away from today, getting the juices flowing I'm ready

Lmao , read from TOS that Book Richardson was at KU practice lol. What's even funnier is some poster said they wished KU would hire him for our Basketball Staff - - - -UMMM - -What ? Hello -are you fricken nutts ? - -are you brain dead ?

You want Coach Self to add Richardson to our staff - -lol , a guy that just got out of prison back in October of 2019 for his involvement in Arizona's case with this whole NCAA Scandal you want KU to hire Book ? - the guy that hasn't had a Coaching job and has the TEN YEAR show cause ? -Are you fricken nuts ? - -Seriously I know you got to be joking, you couldn't be serious, you had to be LMAO when you posted that.

I don't think it would be a very good look & even a worse idea to hire Book Richardson to join our staff who's case has just been settled by the IARP/NCAA & that is on Three years probation and under the microscope , KU hire Book ? , you don't think they would be all up in KU'S A - - every step of the way , every day, every minute , every second of our Basketball program ? - -They would be like a pack of hyena's
looking for a fresh kill, just waiting for Richardson to screw up. -That has to be one of the funniest post I have seen OMG lol.

I know this poster couldn't of been serious wanting Coach to hire Richardson - -maybe he was - - -but that's not going to happen , I know Bill isn't that thick/slow lol. ROCK CHALK

@wissox said in Some People will spew out anything, who actually believes this BS:

@nuleafjhawk I see, I had no idea what you were talking about. So you're saying Jalon is letting us down by not playing? I mean I'm not privy to Dr. reports or anything to discern how hurt he really is. If he really is, what's he supposed to do?

I fully believe he IS hurt. That's part of the problem, people want to believe this bogus BS thinking he wants to transfer to Michigan St with Lance. - - Lance isn't going anywhere and unless you have encountered the back issues that they talk like he has - -then you have no idea.

I've dealt with those issues, I know how he feels. if you are messing with the nerve the that runs in the back , just depends it can run part way down the leg it can run all the way down and it hurts like a bitch, you can't hardly stand up - - you can't sit down , , you can't lay down - -when mine was bad it took me a half hour just to get my shoe's on, you can't bend over - - not good. There are some that thinks this is all made up - -he is not hurt and I call BS. Jalen wants to be out there as bad as the next guy, he is to much a part of this program, not only are these his team mates , they have grown a bond & friendships

If it is legit and he tries to come back to fast, he can be looking at surgery - -I've had four, and the tightness is something that might hinder him forever. I still have back tihtness and they told me that they can't fix the problem all they want to do is make it more tolerable. - I fully think Jalen isn't trying to pull anything -- the kid is hurt.

Now Maybe - - Maybe , if anything it might more likely then a back issue if it were being made up , it might be more likely like this stuff being thrown out if anything MAYBE his parents are telling him to sit so he can transfer to USC - -I don't think so, but if anything this would be more the case then him faking a back issue

@approxinfinity said in KU is #1:

Yeah i really am not sold on Hunter being some next level answer for Bill. To me he is still the big slow 2nd team All Big 10 mask wearing a-hole who steps on people until he proves otherwise.

Ya I have to agree some at least. To me I'm not just quite sure about his fit. I think with the way we have got out and run the last few yrs an up tempo team , Hunter seems out of place. - -Now is he just slower getting up the court OR is he just some what lazy running the floor.

Sure when we run half court offense then he might be ok, now from the small display we saw he didn't impress me as a rebounder, he didn't impress me as a rim protector -- he just looked lik a sloth compared to the rest of the team up and down the floor. - In the exhibition other then a couple of times he wasn't posting up - he was on the perimeter shooting three's. during these games anyways he just kind of looked out of place.. - Now that could all be a one time thing not sure, but from what i saw he just looked like out of place compared to the rest of the team --I dunno hope I'm wrong cause I think we are at our best when we push tempo - get out and go - I didn't see Humter doing that much, more like half court unless they held it up for him

@nuleafjhawk said in Some People will spew out anything, who actually believes this BS:

@jayballer67 You know what I'm going to say next, right?

ya and your wrong lmao

I think it was more of a challenge for Lance - -if was going to leave it would of been more worry last year and him going what was it the Wisconsin job ?-- or hell even the Nebraska job, as he has family ties there right? -- More then Michigan State

@nuleafjhawk said in Some People will spew out anything, who actually believes this BS:

@jayballer67 which star QB are you referring to?

Jalen Daniels

@FarmerJayhawk said in Some People will spew out anything, who actually believes this BS:

Yeah, it's all garbage. Lance said like a month ago he intends to retire in Lawrence.

Ya kinda dunny how garbage and K/State go hand in hand. -I actually am serious when I actually think they are starting to get a little uneasy seeing that yes we are closing the gap in football on them and the thought of that just about makes them sick lol.

I think they are trying to jusitfy and come up with anything they can to relief their fears. - - - TO LATE. - we are coming . amazing the lengths some wil go to to make themselves feel better

Man , I mean people go to great lengths sometimes , Reading from our TOS that off K/State boards is a three page thread about Coach L leaving to go to Michigan State and Jalen going with him.

To that I call BS . - I just don't believe that for a NY Minute. I just think Lance is a very high Character guy, and when he says he and his wife are very happy here in Lawrence , and just really don't think he would invest as much as he has, pointing to improvements to our Stadium & Weight Room , I think he is at a age as to where he doesn't want to keep making another jump - -The University is giving him everything he ask for

In reality I think what is more likely is a nervous fan base down the pike that we ( KU ) are closing the gap on them and they are SERIOUSLY HOPING that Lance will leave and our star QB will follow him there
To this like I said I call BS -does anyone here actually beleive this crap , just click bait they pulling this out their ass.

No this piece MIGHT be a little more believable , not much for me but maybe some. - More report is that Jalens Parents are forcing him to sit out to go to USC-- this supposedly from ( A SOURCE )- --I just find that hard to believe

@jayballer67 that sounds right. It's a HS guy, recent decommit from Oregon State. Bogo's a Sooner

Ya I've seen who you were talking about - -we were in on him before , like you said things looking good for him. - Also saw about Boganowski , dammit lol. Well at least he isn't going down the pike to that othere school. They thought they had him all wrapped up in a nice little package.

Also seen a very positive post where one of our commits Carter Lavrusky hsa made a huge jump in the rankings. -Is now rated the 35th OT in the class , good to hear.

Also about our other guy like you mentioned our boy from Arizona looks pretty good about sticking as he tweeted out to the linemen that we expect is going to announce for us Thursday- -He Warner tweeted out - -come home Dawg with little Crimson and Blue hearts , he doesn't sound like a guy thats de-committing.

@FarmerJayhawk said in 2024 recruits:

@jayballer67 yep, I think he’s solid as long as the staff keeps making him a priority, which they will.

Also, looks like we’re going to land another OL this week so that’s fun

that's good to hear, we have had pretty good luck so far when it comes to attrition de-commits. Dec 15 I think is Early Signing right ? --can't gt here fast enough. Another lineman ill be good too, High School or portal ? - Sure wish we could end up Boganoswki soon also.

@jayballer67 Hold the phones - our defense made HUGE progress after giving up 700 yards to Texas🙄

ya REALLY HUGE- - -700 yards to a legit team to 500 yards to a garbage team lol.

If we are looking and really reaching for something - -I guess if your really reaching for something to positive about we can always say we had the same exact results as K/State against them.- -The kitties lost 29-21 - - a 8 point lost, and we had a 7 seven point loss with our back up QB. - -now HEY there is something to write home about I mean we scored eleven point more the K/State did- - -BUT w gave up Ten points more lol--Yippee

@Texas-Hawk-10 said in Hypothetical re: Bean:

Yesterday is why I've been hesitant to say KU will win 8-9 games this year despite havingtge talent to do so. This team has still yet to show it can beat similarly skilled teams away from Lawrence with any level of consistency.

Can KU go into Ames in 3 weeks and beat a team that they should beat on paper, regardless if it's Daniels or Bean under center? Until KU gets to a point where their going at least .500 in those games, this is going to be a program that tops out at 6-7 wins per season.

Before Yesterday I would of felt really good about beating Iowa State, & Cincinnati & before yesterday I thought we was going to beat them- -now I am not very sure at all. Our talent has gotten better and I believe it's better then those three, which leads me to wonder - -Is it our DC ? - I will tell the truth, yesterdays loss has made me take a hard look on expectations for this yr
