Coach Self had an interview that was played on one of the tournaments today - -think it was the Maui , anyways he was talking about how he didn't like not being able to Coach the 1st 4 games but understood.
Paid Grady the ultimate compliment. - -Saying Grady is the best shooter he has EVER been around , that's saying something. -Also talked about how he liked the team and said we had a couple of guys that could get on a roll and carry KU a long ways. - -Then Seth said that Grady is one of the best hardest cutters in the game he has ever seen , how Grady is able to read Screens.
Coach said actually Grady haad already saved KU in two games this year. - -Enjoy him while we got him guys , he not gonna be here long

@BeddieKU23 Self didn't say if he passed those stones or what. Hopefully he did. Wouldn't want to have surgery so far from home.
like I said - -even if he doesn't pass on his own , it's not that big of thing anymore - -go in for lithotripsy and out the same day. - -within a day you wouldn't even know you had them
@BeddieKU23 said in 11 AM Start, Wed NC STATE:
MJ Rice had kidney stones Saturday. Practiced but no word if he will play
I've had those multiple times. - My 1st experience the Dr told me that he didn't want me to do any extra driving , I ask why is that & he told me not only could they but chances are I could black out from the pain.
Also was told once you gt them the chances of you getting them again is a lot more likely. - Which I have , have had 6 different encounters , when the nurses found out what was wrong they just kept saying how sorry they were. Had heard previously from different ones saying kidney stones was as close to as far as pain wise was as close a man was going to get like a woman in labor with labor pains. Yet I had some nurses tell me that kidney stones were actually worse. - Saying on a level about the only things more painful then kidney stones might be gull stones.
All I know those dam things hurt like you know what. I feel for MJ - my 1st experience was before they had lithotripsy - -I laid in the hospital for a week. Finally the Dr came in and said he was hoping i would pass them on my own - -but I didn't , he said they were going to have to go in and get them. - -I won't go into detail about how they had to do that but I'll just tell you that wasn't fun.
I'm not sure why MJ wouldn't be playing tomorrow. With Lithotripsy , I went in -- in and out same day procedure , you go in they put you out - -they zap you break them up and you go home. Not really any lasting effects -he had them Saturday - -for sure should be fine. - -after effects only last maybe a day -- two tops. --The worst I had was Dr thought I had 3 stones , went through the procedure but he told me we would have to come back as I ended up with six and he had put s much current into me that he could for one time. when they was busting them up. -- -MJ should be fine , might be a little sore but only at certain times if you know what I mean --

Looking forward to Kentucky at Gonzaga at 6:30. Too bad the Chiefs play at 7:20. I sure hope Kentucky picks up another L
Gonzaga is massively overrated this season from what I've seen of them so far. This isn't tge dominant team they've had the last 5 or so years. Sweet 16 is probably their ceiling this year. I'd expect Kentucky to win by double digits tonight.
Maybe , I dunno though - -Cal seems to do less with more quite a bit lately - there is a hell of a lynch mob after him

@mayjay I hate people that just take shots rather than arguing their viewpoint. When they do that it shows they have no argument just want to name call like a 12 year old because they can’t pontificate on the hawks
You and I have haad our moments huh buddy ? -Yet like I stated or at least I think I have , or at least tried to say or get a crossed this is a forum and everybody has a right to their opinions, sure they may get heated at times maybe but that's what's great about America -- freedom of Speech - -Freedom of expression.
You haven't agreed with everything I've said and that's fine - -I sure haven't agreed with some of yours BUT at the end of the day were all still KU fans. -Life is to short and I am to old to worry about arguing about ttrival things like sports when there are A LOT more important things in life to worry about.
Used to be I kinda though some that TexHawk was kind of an arrogant ass-- sorry , but the longer I got to know him , reading his posts - -the guy really is very knowledigble and brings up good points. - -just because he doesn't wear Crimso n and Blue glasses all the time makes some not like him or can't get along with him. -- Were all fine , just some different views that's all
Not concerned about Nebraska. - -Everything I've been reading from Nebraska boards is he isn't even in the picture anymore - - saying how 4 potentials have moved to the lead and he is not one of them. - Read Matt ruhle - -Gary Patterson -- can't remember the other two right now but Lance isn't one of them. - -Even heard that Joesph is still might be the Coach.
I think Lance is staying put, wants to finish what he started. - - Might take some mor money & extension but KU better get on that like NOW. What he has done with this program n one year is incredible , we have progressed so much. SURE we have landed on tough times NOW. - -Yet who here before the Season started would of ever predicted we would win SIX games this year and be bowl eligible - - - Sure in the hell not me, and if most of you say ya I expected us to win SIX- -then I call bull shit.--you say that and then you would believe I''m gonna be the Pope tomorrow too. - We have won SIX GAMES and now some forget just how bad - - -I mean REALLY BAD this program was and now think we should of won 8-9 games THIS YEAR. - -this is a process it is going to take more then one year to turn this around. - -We sure in the hell didn't get this bad in one year, were not going toget that much better in a year.
Lance is getting the pieces in place , the recruits - -the talent level is improving, he will continue to use the portal , and we are STILL one of the youngest programs in D-1. - -He is who we need and I think he stays
our special teams suck - - Punter where the hell is hang time-- Where is Bucky Scribner when w need him lol . - -Borcella - all I can say is Mercy. - -Bet you don't see him next week, as Coach replaced him and extra pt guy both

Might be worse next week! Bean coming out at half? Where did our D go? I’m so sad!
Same problem that's it's been all year the Defense can't stop the run. - -Robinson has 172 yards at the half. - - Texas has 306 yards of offense at the half - -KU has 136 - - that's not gonna win you any games. - -The refs took a TD away from KU where they called lineman down field - -they re watched at half , a lineman is allowed 3 yards down the field and clearly not beyond that , would of given us some kind of Mo.- -Wouldn't change things though , still stay with what I said earlier 300 yards
1st one of these this year - - -BLOWOUT
looks like the guys decided to take the day off - -wonderful
you can for sure know it's going to be a fricken long day when you get calls like these and then have a fricken guy that's getting a paid way that can't make any kind of a dam field goal. that was like an extra point holy dog do- - he is sorry
Waitin for Jalen to pull the ball out from Devin and run the corner
@FarmerJayhawk said in The Booth Slaughterhouse Game Thread:
Yep don’t like going horizontal against that team speed
ya you don't go lateral and throw the thing five yards behind the line of scrimmage when you are 4th & 2
what kind of call is that on 4th down
you can tell Jalon been out. -Little off on his throws- - -got some rust
robinson 300 yards for the game? - -he gonna bust a long one or two before its over
you can't stop the run - - -gonna be a real long day
Brian Hnnni said on KU pre-game that on the Video Board they was showing Jason Bean as the starting QB for today
Imagine coming back from your self imposed 4 game suspension and the 1st game you Coach in is in the Bahamas - boy that would be rough huh? lol - -Suspended for 4 games come back an spend almost a week in Bahamas lol
@FarmerJayhawk said in The Booth Slaughterhouse Game Thread:
Daniels barring a pregame setback
Ya been seein Jalen - -Bean might play a little. Farmer have you heard anything about Jalen transferring to UCLA for a huge NIL deal ? - - just curious
There was one situation during the game last night and one of the announcers saw it and brought it up. You know I don't think I've ever seen ANY Bill Self team where this happened and I swear hope I never see again.
This is where Southern Utah stole a pass or there was a KU turnover broke out on the break and there was like 3 more Southern Utah players trailing th play which turned out good for them cause the 1st shot was missed but other Utah players there to rebound and put back - -THREE trailing Utah players - - - Where in the hell was our KU players? - -there wasn't a fricken one - - NOT ONE even in the picture - -what the hell the Color commentator mentioned it at the time he said- - -you got to get back dam. - -There is no excuse for that what soever. Hope I never see that again.
Glad we won, I'll take the win but we have JUST GOT TO get more production from other then just Jalen & Grady - -thank GOD for Juan production tonight -I'll take 13 from him everytime out

Baylor came out ice cold in the second half. Down 20 to UVA and outscored 27-4 so far with about 11:30 left.
ya I'm seeing that during our half
we got to quit turning the dm ball over. you would think it would be the other way around, but we have 10 turnovers and they have 5

- -Averaging 103.8 per game - -score over 100 points twice
Worth noting this is against 2 D3 schools and the California equivalent of Kansas Wesleyan or Bethany. Their 1 game against a D1 school was an 8 point loss to New Mexico where they scored 81.
ya I understand buddy, just noting they love to run and jack those three's gotta still get a hand in their face and not give uncontested wide open three's like we have had a tendency to do sometimes

@jayballer67 I can 100% see the argument to leave - no doubt as you clearly laid out.
I just got a feeling can’t explain it lol
It would be nice if he did , I'm just saying he wont - -that way if he does come back just be like Christmas next year - -great present lol
@kuballin10 said in Duke Kills Kansas... Kansas Wins Game!:
@jayballer67 I think a few things factor in:
1) he’s a KS kid that’s always wanted to play at KU I think more so than the nba2) NIL will help he is already in a great commercial. It won’t mean he gets 2-3M like he would picked 15-20th in the draft but it could supplement for 1 year easy
3) nba life absolutely sucks. Google articles on it the playing late flying into a new city and playing again the next night. 82 games and practices it’s just brutal.
I think he sits down and if we didn’t win a title wants to come back and will. If we win it all he’s gone.
OK - -money takes care of a lot of the things you mentioned ,you always have to figure in the risk of IF he comes back - -get's hurt or GOD for bid an injury bad enough to keep him out total huge risk. For people that I've heard say basketball is a non contact sport - -I say - -roflmao - -I can tell you from playing myself & the officiating the game for the casual fan sitting in the stands , eve the front row - - you have no idea how much you miss.
Basketball has NO protection against injury at all like football, Always a risk of injury - -a lot ok kids don't want to take that risk , and now he has played at KU this year. - -He is NBA Ready , quick shot -- smooth , defense psssst please 3/4 of the players in the league don't play defense unless it's the OLAY defense -- they get use to the schedule sure it's brutal but not gonna make a difference if it's year brutal or next - - Brutal is Brutal. - -but it's ok if you think he is coming back - -I'l think he is gone it's ok thats what the board is about discussion - just don' get use to seeing him long -- enjoy him while we got him

I'm still trying to understand our self-imposed punishment... this didn't help -
Why do I still have a bad feeling we will be treated worst by IARP... especially now that we have basically admitted guilt!
at this point - -nothing will surprise me. - one reason I feel we might get hit , if at all possible and you know they will try their dam hardest -- if at all possible they want to lay the hammer to us. - -The NCAa has a hardon for us as we have rippled the waters with them - -challenged them more then once , they don't like boat rockers -so if they can they want us so bad it makes them wet
IF the NCAA could screw some blue blood JUST ONCE they would be in 7 th heaven saying see - - -we showed you -were th NCAA don't mess with us , thats what they want. -- So I'm right there with you- -could go either way but won't be shocked if they do

I think Gradey is back next year
Mj maybe or he might transferClemence, Joe and Cuffe will be gone
We got too many guards:
Juan - Bobby
Johnson - Elmarko
Gradey - MJ, McDowell
Bigs: kj, Ernest, Zuby
I think we get a transfer 4 or 5 to step in right away.
No I don't see Grady back at all , he MIGHT need to but would almost bet the farm like other have said enjoy him while he is here cause chances better then not he is gone after this year , unless just falls flat on his face - - -don't see that happening, especially they all ready projecting him as the 16th pick

Kevin #51, Jalen #66.
Will be interesting to monitor the movement over the year
I think one thing we do know , it would take a disaster of a year for Grady NOT to go to the NBA draft after a year. - -Enjoy him while we can
Really surprised that J Wil is so low for the 1st release - -off his preformances he has had this year- - wonder what they are seeing that is causing him to be so far down. - -66 isn't even making it is it or right at the bottom
He's gotta prove he can be better than a 30% outside shooter. If he can't he's not an NBA level talent. Honestly, I don't see him sticking even if he gets drafted. Jalen skills seem more suited to the international game anyway and I think he'll end up having a nice career over in Europe.
ya probably right. Tha's kins of what I've always thought . Pretty Good College player but like so many others doesn't really translate to NBA but yet be able to pick up some decent pocket change over sea's
