Never good when the bigs you need have more fouls than points

Well was wondering where MJ was - - didn't take long , soon as he touches it - - it goes up. Wonder how long he stays on the floor
@Zabudda said in Seton Hall Gameday discussion:
Okay Gradey, quit messing with us.
Grady kind of tailing off some - - think he will be ok though - -just a mini slump
We have a pair of young bigs that jump at anything AND everything
@Jethro said in Seton Hall Gameday discussion:
KJ is having troubles
this is part of the problem , has no shot. - -he is catching the ball below the free throw line and STILL not even looking at the basket - - -automatic kick out. - -We have JUST GOT TO get development from Zuby or Ernest

Cuffe
Ya that's right. I guess my old age cause me to forget him seeing as he hasn't really been any kind of factor in the season so far. - -to bad I kinda like the kid just buried by depth though
They say KU is down FOUR Scholarship players - -who is the fourth ?. - Were down Pettiford - - --Martin - - McCullar - -who is the Fourth ?
Not to many nights you gonna see Creighton go 2 - - for 23 from the three. , and they have had a lot of good looks from the three - - not really contested a lot , just missed them

@jayballer67 IU won by a lot. They look really solid.
ya , they look pretty solid. - - Carolina I think was way overrated at the beginning of the season.- -Also think Duke isn't as good as some think either- - they have flaws for the talent they have

I like that there are Texas students courtside at mid-court. Not the old folks that are seated next to our court.
There are alot of those so called old folks that pay good money and big donors for those seats.The students are just fine- -they make plenty of noise right where their at
Did North Carolina end up winning their game last night ?
I've never seen so many air balls in a half in my life.- -- 3 point air balls mid range air balls - -what the hell lol

Point Blank , - -Straight up -- -were are gonna have trouble with Texas - -Athletic as all get out , very athletic
Creighton's lack of athleticism is very apparent. Texas' abundance of highly athletic players is apparent, too.
Texas likes up tempo for sure. Allen & Carr a hand full. Wish we could of got Hunter

A little off the subject but the VP of my company has triplets, and one of them is a very good beach volleyball player. She just signed with Boise St. I pitched going to KU hard to dad, but he said she likes playing beach volleyball, not regular volleyball. So off to the land of the blue astro turf. Anyway, congrats to the lady jayhawks!
lol hey you tied buddy

Couple of things here . One is a question & one view opinion.- -Question is guys , do we start playing our new members this up coming season 2023? - you know Cincinnati - - Houston - - Central Florida - BYU ? -If we do , do we know which one of these schools is on KU'S schedule or are they ALL gonna be on the schedule for KU ? - -Do we know our opponents yet ?
Then the other ,my view/opinion , I think this portal is gonna be a huge portal in football this season. Already some big time names - - Think Alabama WR - - Tulsa QB suppose to draw major attention , other big time draws in there, - -We have some pretty major players coming for visits. Gonna be something to really keep our eye on this Season , we know Lance has done really well
I guess another question I might have is - who does this help or hurt the most , the portal. - -Does the portal hurt the High Schools recruits more ? - -Are Colleges going to lean on the portal a lot more cause they have the College ball experience ? - -Or does Coach's continue to lean more on High School players and develop - - -OR the portal ?
Lady Jayhawks huge win tonight - -Beating Texas A & M --74 - 42 , to move their record to 6 - -0 - Good Job ladies
Well KState goes down 76 - -64 to Butler tailed by as much as 20 trailed almost entire game. - -Keyonte Johnson was perfect from the field for them finished with 20 I believe
Not Kenpom but stat related. A couple of things that sticking out in our conference: - -the most obvious - -we suck with our free throws, don't understand that - - 62.3 - -DEAD LAST - 2nd in Conference in assists , kind of weird after had been hearing about our rebounding -we are 3rd in Conference the 3rd best rebounding team. - - 3rd best & 4th in blocks- -couple of area's I didn't think we would do that well at taking care of the ball- -- negative other then our free throw % 7th in conference in Fg, --- 5th in - -3pt shooting
@Jethro said in Ahh man - - lost a good man /John Hadl:
He couldn't have been that old, could he? Lenny Dawson, Daryl Lamonica and John Hadl were the qbs of my youth.
I know bud , I didn't think so - - but that what the article said - - sad loss
Dam John passed away at the age of 82 - -great player and will be truly missed - -RIP buddy - -JAYHAWK FOR LIFE
Dam Baylor just getting smoked. - - -51 - - -25 at the half by Marquette. - - Baylor 16 turnovers to Marquette's 2 turnovers. - -Marquette has scored 23 points to Baylor ZERO
KU not the only Big 12 team thats had trouble in a game. - - Baylor getting their ass handed to them by Marquette 39 - - - -15 with 4:43 to go in the 1st half

@Crimsonorblue22 said in Anyone concerned about losing Leipold to Nebraska?:
@FarmerJayhawk. LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) — Lance Leipold has signed his lucrative contract extension at Kansas, which includes a massive pay raise for the Jayhawks’ football coach along with his assistants and staff, and could keep him tied to the school through the 2029 season.
Under terms of the contract, which was agreed to last week and made public Tuesday, Leipold will make $5 million in the first year of the deal with annual $100,000 increases. Leipold also gets a $750,000 signing bonus while his buyout rises to $12.5 million before gradually decreasing over time.
His original contract was a $16.5 million, six-year pact that paid him $2.2 million last year with $200,000 increases each season. Leipold had a year added to the deal Sept. 1 before leading the Jayhawks to a 5-0 start and spot in the Top 25; the Jayhawks dealt with injuries down the stretch and finished 6-6 for their first bowl appearance since 2008.
“When we hired Lance Leipold 19 months ago, we were confident we had found the ideal fit for KU and that has been reinforced every single day since his arrival,” Kansas athletic director Travis Goff said. “In short order, Lance and his family have engrained themselves in the Lawrence community and have made an impact that extends far beyond the football program, to the broader university and Lawrence communities.
Worth every penny, good to see that KU is behind Coach and willing to pay the man
@FarmerJayhawk said in Anyone concerned about losing Leipold to Nebraska?:
Lance pretty much wrote his own contract
Lance is NOT PLAYING my friend. - He made some serios wheel & deal. Kinda like this , this is how it's gonna be OR - -got to love it, I'm so glad we have a Coach that is so serious and committed to the KU program and getting this dam thing turned around - -which he is well on his way.
Example : Lance has a termination of contract which States. If meaningful & substantial hasn't been made towards renovation of Anderson complex -- Lance can't terminate contract without penalty by July 1st of 2023 - -- & /if ////meaniful & Substantial hasn't been made of renovations or construction to the stadium by December 15th -2023 then Lance can terminate the contract without penalty.
This guy isn't playing and you got to love it. Lance knows in order to get better talented recruits more athletic this is all part of the process that HAS to be made. -Lance has me so stoked about the way our Football is headed - -Love it
@Texas-Hawk-10 said in Texas Southern Game Thread:
I don't like our starters playing 30 minutes in this game, even with McCullar out. Yesufu doesn't bother me playing those minutes because he had to play multiple roles tonight, but definitely would've preferred Harris and Wilson being around 25 minutes.
It's also concerning that in a game like this, Clemence, Ejiofor, and Udeh played a combined 28 minutes and only took 3 shots. It's looking more and more like tge 5 spot is going to be an even bigger black hole on offense than when Landen Lucas was playing.
Hopefully this was Rice's coming out party and he can be the spark off the bench KU needs, but the 5 spot should be an even bigger concern after tonight's lack of offense behind KJ.
I noticed in this game , that there were times when Ernest & Zuby were on the floor they didn't even begin to look at the basket - -looked like they just wanted to get the ball out of their hands as fast as they could , our 5 spot is gonna have to get something done. - -I DID notice tonight like had been mentioned - -did KJ get a single rebound ?-- I'm not sure , been brought to our attention before about that but tonight stuck out to me for sure
All we need to know about Houston is - - -they are legit. - -Sasser is the real deal
Now all we have to do is translate this to Thursday - just a little step up in the opponent come Thursday. Let's see how MJ handles/plays against Seton Hall - - See if Joe can continue a upward swing , competition little stiffer
I wish I could say that I have seen things to get me more excited tonight. - -kinda going through motions - -once again Rice , Udeh just not doing much - -Zuby is effort- - sure would like to know what's going on with Zac - -late , late entry into game --I think he HASA to be the big for now anyways - -something has to be going on behind the scenes..
Joe been decent anyways not great , but not horrible-- maybe see more in 2nd half
Man having a little trouble shaking this being bummed after effect from the Tennessee game. - - Just played really ugly , was it all Tennesse doings ? - -No , I don't think it was ALL Tennessee , just a matter of focus. - -I keep hearing well the kids were tired, - -well maybe but the other teams played same amount of games in the same amount of time - I can't buy that excuse maybe some but I think just a lot of poor execution plus we got exposed concerning our depth.
If we are going to be anything we have just got our bench to produce and develop. This game even KJ did a decent job - but Zuby & Ernest have just got to produce and develop - we have just got to get more size on the floor , Tennesse just pounded us on the boards. We just have to have more people that can score the ball.
Tonight is really not proving anything , we have to use this game sa been mentioned as a game to get our bench floor time -we need a bench. - -moving on now get this game out my head lol.
Texas is now # 2 in the nation. Really don't have a problem with that - - -KU # 9 - -Iowa St # 23 - -quite a difference between the AP poll & Coach's poll on Baylor
@FarmerJayhawk said in 2023 croots:
I don’t have names down totally solid yet, but portal interest in KU is very, very high. We have a very appealing combo of available PT, NIL opportunities, and program stability.
That's really good to hear, hopefully we can pull a couple of good players from the poral. I really like how we coming around. Lance has done a great job with these guys and thing is we got a lot of them coming back - -probably a couple of Super Seniors
You know there are some people talking about how KU backed into our bowl game , saying we went 1-5 - -and really didn't deserve a bowl game. These were mostly K/State idiots talking to which I have to say this :
KU team played who was put on the field in front of them. - - They have no control of who steps on the field - -they have no control of who's injured with the opposing team - - they have no control if another opposing player is sick. - -All they have control of is themselves , how they play which has been as a very competitive every single game keeping a persons interest except the Texas game. - -This team is closing the gap and I think other teams are becoming a wear - or they BETTER BE. - I am happy with we are at at this point- -think we are actually even a little ahead of schedule so far. - - ROCK CHALK
@Texas-Hawk-10 said in Texas Southern Game Thread:
This is a game nobody should be playing more than 25 minutes unless it's a bench player. Yesufu needs to be playing a lot of PG tonight especially if Pettiford's going to be out awhile because that's the back up right now and he needs to get used to running the show instead of playing off ball because there's not another option right now. I'd also like to see all the post options play as well with KJ getting the fewest minutes. I'd also like to see Zach at the 4 for a few minutes because that's the position his game is most suited for. I'd also love to see Rice get a lot of minutes tonight and even get Jankovich some minutes because we're not far away from a scenario where he may have to play real minutes and tonight should be a low risk game to get him 5 or so minutes with non scout team players.
you make some pretty dam good sense on this - -at least I think so. we have got to get players floor time and development.--- had't really thought about Zach and the 4 but ya if he can get some confidence that's one I like because HE CAN stretch the floor add some additional height - -I know he can shoot the ball , it's just a matter of showing it, and got to play some better defense.
Good options. - -I think like was mentioned also we need to get Zuby and Udeh minutes for sure in this - -just have to
Just read starting in 2023-24 - -no more challenge. They announccd that the ACC will now be in the SEC /ACC . - -and the Big 12 /SEC challenge will be no more and the Big 10 /ACC challenge will be no more.
So I guess maybe the next question now becomes how possible would if be for the BIG 12 / Big 10 challenge be a possibility. - -Actually kind of glad our SEC challenge will end tired of playing Kentucky majority of the time

When the new rankings come out it's going to look quite a bit differently than the first month of the season polls.
Was thinking that just now myself - - -Gonzaga lost Again now with 2 losses - - - North Carolina lost twice over the holiday weekend - - Duke lost again - - WE lost Mercy crazy already
Wow Had missed that but just saw Purdue just whupped Duke's tail- - 75-56 - -Duke loses -- Carolina loses Again - -crazy season already
@FarmerJayhawk said in 2023 croots:
@jayballer67 yessir, he committed maybe a month or so ago? Big kid with a lot of talent. Just didn’t put it together at Wiscy. Fuchs has a lot to work with there. Wouldn’t surprise me if he slotted right in there for Bostick.
I think I like the sounds of that. - -really good size -thin it was 6'6 & 315 might not hurt to put on a few pounds possibly
@KirkIsMyHinrich said in KU vs ksu 🦃's:
I think everyone here would have taken 6-6 if given the option at the beginning of the season. Definitely something to build on going forward.
I know I am fine with 6-6 major progress , still got a bowl , who would of thought that before the Season started
I love how we have been competitive this season. - -no Matter I'm still proud of these guys and the progress we have made.---So Glad we have Coach in the fold for some time. - -Were closing the gap guys - -were closing the Gap
Well Ball Game
I think we have given K State all they they would ask for - - competitive - -we are closing the gap
Total yardage K State 327 KU 303
They are talking like K State is going to go for it on 4th down
@Crimsonorblue22 said in KU vs ksu 🦃's:
They call it?
ya that one was a no catch - -we scored anyways but Mason dropped the 2 pt conversion
Dang Mason we needed that- - -down 10
