ESPN is only giving Dok credit for 3 rbs. I'm sure he has more than that. Dok is playing a whale of a game
no that's about right I'vebeen keeping track I usually keep track of the players during the game - But the thing is when neither team is missing any shots - you not gonna have many rebounds. - -Ku late was shooting 63 % - -& Iowa State was shooting 56% - where in the hell is the defense
Man I'm telling you , I can't help but get excites with Christian. I mean you can just see flashes I think bty his junior year he has a chance to be a really good player - -he brought his game tonight
Whew , how hot do you think it is in the KU locker room - -Jumpin - - -Gee - - Hossie - - Toads. - -I would not wanna e in there. They might want to try and guard the perimeter just a little.
Yet play that crappy on the defensive end and still be up by 10

@approxinfinity said in WeatherWAXED Game Thread:
Wiggins had 19 rebounds and Naadir Tharpe had 23 points? That's not at all how I remembered that year.
Ya and Jo Jo had 16 and they were really talking him up. -- Iowa State board today was taking about how Embiid just killed them that year and thank goodness he was hurt when they played in the Big 12 tourney they said - -paved their way to the Championship
We had some talent that year. Embiid , Wiggins ,Sheldon , Tharpe - Lucas on the bench can't remember who else
watching the Ku/Iowa State game from 2014 - - Ellis and Jo Jo & Seldon - - -Wiggins at this point 16 points & 16 rebounds

We have 3 centers and 2 wing/forwards on the roster if no one leaves early.

If we offer, someone is leaving unexpectedly. Worth noting he does not currently have a KU offer.
from the little tid bit I read on the kid - -sounds like maybe interest as soon as we say we very well could be recruiting him and are going to be at his game - - he says he might very well visit KU - pretty quick response from him on this I think if we get seriously involved we automatically become serios contender.
@Woodrow said in 2020 Recruiting:
Interesting he mentions transfers... I can't really think of a good transfer candidate, but if I had too pick I would say Tristan.

@ICThawk said in Sure tell , tell signs of Big 12 Demise as if we didn't know:
Other than OU & UT, I don't think any school out of the B12 has a "guaranteed" home. As of right now, I think KU will PROBABLY come out OK....and surprisingly probably to the SEC, despite our football!! UT & KU both have pretty long records with ESPN so I'm thinking that ESPN doesn't want to lose either if it can help it. So, unless there is some kind of "deal" between Fox & ESPN "exchanging" some teams, I think ESPN would try to keep both. As the conferences ESPN is "all in" on are the ACC & SEC (as well as the AAC), think only the SEC makes sense geographically and compatibility wise (though admittedly the "culture" of the SEC may be a little "odd" for KU). (Do remember that we may be beginning to "adjust" to that culture given our AD's and football coach's lineages.). Other than OU, UT and PROBABLY KU and TT, think the rest of the conference will be "as is" and simply expand mostly out of the AAC to get to 12 or 14 (or even possibly "merge" with it). It could well become a "tweener" conference in the pecking order with the Power Conferences (B1G, SEC), then "Secondary Conferences" (ACC & PAC12 , possibly with the BigEast considered for basketball only), then the B12, then a "reformed" AAC , followed by all the other conferences in some order. However, there are still several years until "realignment hell" is upon us so things could well change (for the better, or for the worse) in that time frame! Buckle up......it could be a wild ride!!

Pretty amazing respect KU/Bill has when beating him once gives another man a job for a half a decade.

@dylans said in Sure tell , tell signs of Big 12 Demise as if we didn't know:
The only schools of value in the Big12 are OU and Texas. Football drives this whole deal. KU is totally screwed if it goes down the way it’s being portrayed here. It won’t. There are too many teams for the Big East and the Big 12 to just go away in order to make the 4 mega conferences -SEC, ACC, B10, Pac12. Half the teams in these conference already suck hind tit and don’t add anything I.e Vanderbilt so why would they want to add teams like ISU or KSU and water down the contract for everyone? The Big12 isn’t going away it just might not have the same teams in it down the road. The addition of the Texas teams doomed the conference as we knew it - lost Nebraska, Colorado, and Missouri - no need to worry change is coming, but unlike what the last potus taught us change isn’t all bad.
Could very well be right, but like you mentioned whether IF the Big 12 does withstand this, again sure looks like Texas and Oklahoma will be gone. That will hurt, from revenue the Big 12 pulls in on Bowl games for one.
Then you have to ask if Texas pulls out , Does TCU - - Texas Tech also pull out with them Does Baylor pull out ? - -All Texas based Schools. - -If Oklahoma pull out , does Oklahoma State follow their in state School and also pullout ?
This is another reason it could be the collapse. we lose all those schools what do you have left? - Then we have to go out and recruit new Schools, Who we going to get to join that makes geographical sense ? - - We best try t o at least pull a couple of big time names. -- We need some glamour teams to or for us to get reconized . - -The league needs luster/attraction to help in recruiting purposes, and I'm talking from a football standpoint here on this. - -We already suck attracting talent anyways and if we don't have teams that has some national attraction football wise going to just make it even harder to try an get a kid that's worth a dam to come play in a so so league THAT'S NOT GOOD

@wissox said in Sooner or Later OU was sent packing:
After the game I remember distinctly hearing Tubbs saying OU was the better team.
I wouldn't hold that statement against Tubbs. That was the consensus opinion. Rivals in 2007-8 named that OU team one of the 10 best ever in the 64-team tourney era.
And from Manning, in a retrospective 25 years later:
"We knew the best team didn't always win. It was the team that played the best that won."
In my mind Tubbs was absolutely right, which is why most Jayhawk fans spent 48 hours puckered up, hoping against hope. (That was actually the only other time other than the F4 consolation game vs Walton that I have ever dreaded game time arriving!) But beating a better team is precisely what defines greatness.

@ICThawk said in Sure tell , tell signs of Big 12 Demise as if we didn't know:
@kjayhawks
I HOPE we have a way out as well....with the B1G or SEC. Doubt anyone other than OU and UT have a "guaranteed" way out, if either or both "want" to leave---and with the money involved that is a GREAT possibility. I can't imagine the B1G picking up either KSU (academics, as well as a duplicate if they picked up KU) or ISU (duplicate in a relatively small state), and I don't think either would be "worth" the $70M-$80M share distribution of the conference. I'm not sure we have that value "alone" either, but would "average" that amount with either OU or UT, or both as a "tag-along school. Think we have a decent chance at B1G IF they expand (if they lose both UT & OU not sure they would expand at all) and even the SEC (kinda keeps the B1G from expansion without the ACC (because of the ACC GOR) and PAC12 (possibly too far away except for Colorado, which probably prefers the PAC for all of their CA alums). The SEC (for better or worse) would realign us with MIzzou and make KU-UK games a yearly affair. The SEC is already strong in football so it could use some more BB talent, not to mention another AAU school. I just don't see KSU, ISU or anyone other than possibly TT having a home (and that only if UT "insists") other than in a "reformed" B12 which would probably no longer be a "power" conference if both OU & UT left , and maybe not even if only one of those two left.
from all the different discussions/talk that I have heard, if the Big 12 dissolves chances are we would probably be taken in by the Big 10. - -mostly our Basketball history would get us in there, take even more beatings in football.
Now I have hear somewhere something like there might be something hell I'm not clearon this but within the Kansas Legislature , if something like this did happen the Legislature wants KU/KSU to go as a package deal keeping the state schools together - - if that is true , I think that is crazy they could be a real crutch for us. I don't know where the hell KSU would go, really don't bring anything to the table
@dylans said in Sure tell , tell signs of Big 12 Demise as if we didn't know:
You honestly think the big East is in better shape than the Big12? Do they even play football?
No, I'm not looking at it from my own point of view. I'm looking at them as another Mega Conference being on the East coast. - you only going to have maybe 5 megs Conferences tops. - Big 12 sure the hell isn't going to over take a media Conference being in big time social media markets - -especially if Texas and Oklahoma leave.

@dylans said in Sure tell , tell signs of Big 12 Demise as if we didn't know:
The new deals always make the older deals look bad. Then you renegotiate. Mega conferences are crap for the fans, so hopefully the Big12 commish negotiates well.
I don't think you are going to see anything that is going to save the Big 12my friend. - What it's going to boil down to is about 4-5 MEGA Conferences. Big East - - - ACC - - -SEC - - possibly Pac-12 - -I think also there are a lot of unsettling Amins with th4 Big 12 an the way things are going. I just think that this conference is history
Well we have all heard or discussed about how the future of the Big 12 isn't looking very good. - -We all know the break up of the league is an almost certain thing to happen in the not to distant future.
Was checking out the Oklahoma Board tonight see if I could find anything about their game with us tomorrow and saw this.
They have a link and they were discussing about it on the board. - - As of 2024 , right at 4 years guys , as of 2024 the Big Ten is going to be paying each team in their league an un godly 80.7 million per team - - - -AND the SEC is going to be paying 78.1 million per team. - -there you guy my friends,
Oklahoma people saying with all the poor TV broadcasts , with a lot of small fan bases herein the Big 12 that there is no way that something like this will do anything but force OU out of the Big 12 & with OU out of the league they said there won't be anything to Entice Texas to stay in the Big 12. They're already talking about whether they would shift to the Big 10 or the Sec, talking about how things would effect their recruiting.
We all knew this was coming, I don't think there is anyway that the league can with stand this - if we were to lose OU & TEXAS , just to much to over come. There has been a lot of talk about the league breaking up anyways , this just adds more to that feeling - -
They was also talking about how this kind of thing would really hurt the Pac 12. - they have a link on this but I just don't know how to pull it over here. - might as well face it this league is toast in the not to far future. - -time to figure out where we gonna land - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
