Scoring is down however this is a bad offensive team that has little playmaking ability. It's a good thing the defense sticks most nights
ya for one I can't figure Oachi ou - times you would swear he isn not even on the floor, we have got to get more from him on a consistent basis
I get frustrated with the guys , then I step back and look. Scoring is JUST DOWN all across the board this year , some really ugly games.- - Louisville beating Maryland 30-25 just ugly. - -Shooting pct is down , like BShark and I said there is NO DOMINANT team this year by far. - -If you ask me who I thought ha the inside track to the Championship this year ? I'd have to tell you I have NO IDEA

Gotta start making the free ones and some 3s. Pretty ugly half there
As bad as our shooting is, it's better than our pct from the line.
38.7 vs 25.0
there is no excuse for College kids to shoot that kind of pct. - My little biddy ball boys shoot better then that
BShark said:
This team just can't shoot period, but they ugly games up pretty well.
ya, I don't see how we are shooting 51 % on the season and in the top 5 in the Nation. - - their shooting is like Night mare on elm street at times
Marcus makin it look pretty easy to drive the ball against these guys though

just sitting here wondering here on game day and for some odd reason - - -I'm not really all that pumped/giddy the question becomes why am I not ? ...... - -just having trouble getting up for this game tonight - - why ? -- -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
Got a simple answer for you: This team doesn't look like they are having fun. Therefore, they are really not fun to watch.
Don't get me wrong, I'm rooting for them, but it's the saddest looking group of players I've ever seen assembled on one team.
ya , I can see that. -- Just not a lot of emotion/reaction almost mechanical, after a really good play - -a really bad play. I too will always root for them BUT
Where is that Kelly Oubre reaction. [ - -Say what you want about the Morris twins - -I don't give a rats ass - they had emotion/fire - somebody needs to light a fire under some these guys ass. - very seldom do you see these guys chest bumpin - -hi fivin what the hell ever ANYTHING/SOMETHING, like I said something just missing
just sitting here wondering here on game day and for some odd reason - - -I'm not really all that pumped/giddy the question becomes why am I not ?
Guess I find questioning , it becomes have we ( KU ) lost our dominance of the Big 12 ? - Man I hate that thought.
I mean 14 straight conference championships , and even before that we were still pretty much the Goliath teams where their fans thought well it's still KU
Have we lost that? - -or losing it. It's just a different feel - -do you think these teams/fans worry as much as they did about coming to the phog? - Streak broken last year , this years team - does it really so dominance - I mean REAL dominance like our teams have in the past ?
I just don't get the feel, is things slowly slipping away? - do we seriously think this team is a final four team? - Look at all of our slow starts - something just seem out of whack. - -I dunno something just does not seem right. - -Hope I'm wrong , cause KU basketball is the only thing I've been able to hang onto. - -just having trouble getting up for this game tonight - - why ? -- -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Yep. I'm not sure what to expect from Devon. He may have picked the wrong career if he can't play hard tonight with pain and being effective.
People bark about what pro athletes make. After all, they are just playing a game, right? In reality, they are not only masters of their game they have to learn how to play with pain while still being effective and still being aggressive.
Here it is... this says it all:
Oh Course it doesn't hurt that these trainers for these pro athletes , shoot em up numb em and give them all kind of others goodies to help ease the pain

@jayballer73 Seahawks definitely still had their chances. I’d take the packers over the niners. They have the more experienced QB
49er's plain and simple are just the better team this year. - - Aaron has not really played well all year. - - Is it the new Coach/scheme , some think so.
I've been a Green Bay fan from way back when with Starr Brockington and such Nitzske - -the ICE Bowl can still remember watching that game .
We got some really good edge rushers - -the /Smiths but they done whipped our ass earlier 37-8. Aaron barely reach 100 yds passing.
49ers play calling scheme is for sure a weakness of the GB defense, ut we have had a really good year all things considered 14-3. Never say never I guess , that's why they play the game but wit it being in San Fran I am just not feeling it right now. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
kjayhawks said:
Wow the packers have gotten more questionable calls this season, than the chiefs or Jayhawks have gotten in my life time. Seahawks still had their chances but dang.
that wasn't really even questionable. - - When he tackled Graham Graham came done but his knee was not on the ground - -not even close - -what it was Graham was on top of the tackler , you don't count him being down with that, when any part of his body hit the ground - it was his helmet and that was over the 1st down line.
Green bay was the ones that came up with the Big stop - - Seattle still had their chances and Rogers nailed them with perfect passes on the last possession.
Even the announcers were saying Seattle can't get the stop on 3rd down. - -Not gonna matter anyways , as much as I love Green Bay - San Francisco is gonna win the Championship - they just that much better this year. Unless Green Bay has some change of play calling - SF just dominated the hell out of GB when we played in the regular season. - -Still been a pretty good year , when Rogers hasn't been that great

this is a never ending conversation and I'm done. - I guess we were just brought up different ways. - I was brought up to respect , so some have some class, that whole scenario just makes you look some little snot nosed spoiled punk, Thank GOD I know many , many , many more KU fans that don't pull that shit.

If you think KU fans never boo opponents, then you clearly never went to a Kansas-Missouri game.
again OK AND? - -NOW WHAT? -- doesn't mean there is any class to that at all - - THAT is not a fan. - -people have a had time reading comprehension - -still got to respond this is pointless. - -you feel like you have the need to Boo then knock yourself out - -STILL CLASSLESS
If you would of read the initial post they were talking about people booing KU players - your own fricken team - -that on top of everything else is a BANDWAGON FAN - these kind of people is the type of people KU doesn't need. - I'm glad people automatically think oh well you have neve seen this heard that been there makes me f - - - - - - laugh. - I think some just want to respond just for the sake to argue. - If you think that is class to boo players and such - -then I'm sorry must had a bad childhood - -oh well it's ok

ISU the only B12 team to even hit 70 today. TCU and OSU played a B10 game today lighting up the scoreboard to the tune of a 52-40 TCU win.
Holy crap. - -40 points? - -you know we here all the well a lot of it is because they have moved the 3 point line back and the defense is ahead of the offense. - -I can agree with that to a point , also you mean all these defenses have gotten that much better ? - -might be a little of both , I think to though that just overall with this group of kids anyways - the quality of overall shooting 2 point AND 3 point shooting is just down across the board. Makes for some really ugly games. - -they make it look like we have un limited amount of Virginia defense - -not good

So if I’m an opposing coach, I would want the ball in Dave’s hands 15 feet from the basket every possession. So there is that. Dave can’t put it on the floor and drive. Dave can’t pass. Dave fumbles the ball around when there is any pressure much of the time. Dave shooting from 15 feet would make any sane opposing coach happy.
The 3/2 is dependent on Silvio somehow becoming the player we expected, OR possibly playing a guard, like Brain, as the “high”? The latter simply spit ballin’.
Silvio sucks at this point, simple as that. I also never said anything about McCormack needing to put the ball on the ground. 15' is about the extent of his range so if opposing coaches are giving him that, I'm telling him to take that shot every time he's left alone there because he's going to hit that shot about 60-65% of the time from there. If opposing defenses never adjust to that, then McCormack ends up with some 20 point games on a good night. If they do adjust, then the lanes open up for the guards to drive and the paint opens up for Doke down low.
As a basketball coach, I was told to not adjust your line up to the other team, especially if you had the superior talent which KU does against just about everyone on their schedule. You stay in your lane and force the other team to adjust to you and KU's current roster isn't suited for a 4 guard offense because of the lack of shooting. It's suited for a traditional offense with 2 traditional bigs and Self needs to fully embrace bully ball to make that run this year.
If Silvio doesn't come back next year he is a fool, but to honest - call me callous - I'm not sure that I want him to come back. Enaruna needs to play more next year (probably should play more now, but - you know Bill - it's not going to happen).
I'm beginning to wonder myself. - -Poor Silvio just still seems lost - helter skelter. Kinda reminds me a little his freshman year. - -To sped up , needs to slow down and just play , don't over think just go with the flow of the game.

After students were moved, I was there
that is one incident - there has become many more where it is just not as loud as previous times. - On top of that another reason that numbe was achieved was because the promoted the hell out of this , making sure people knew what they was trying to do. - -Shouldn't have to try and start hyping, the fans should do this game in -- game out period.

@kjayhawks always, but u started out saying our fans were booing our players, never, ever seen that. Boo refs. Been to fb games, no booing, one Vb and one baseball game, no booing. Worked KU relays, no booing. KU fans are classy, we applaud Kevin Durant, buddy hield and George Nieng-sp?, W/standing O's.
Exactly , that's because MOST KU fans are class and appreciate talent when they see it. - -I remember the love they gave Buddy when we go tdone it was special

@kjayhawks I've been to 2 games this yr, the place was crazy! Before this year I got to go to probably 6-7 games a year. Always loud and fun! You are just full of it and I'm calling you out!
They've rearranged the student section in recent years so AFH definitely isn't as loud as it was because they've put more high dollar donor seats closer to the floor and pushed students further up the bleachers.
Thanks for that explanation guy, I hadn't realized that had happen. Kind of Sucks. I understand they want to accommodate the high dollar donors, understandable Yet wish they could figure a way without moving the students either cause the are the energy. They are 85 % probably oh what gets that place juiced - -rockin. You are like kjayhawks & myself said and I know others that say it is just not as loud. - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

It still sucks we got punked at home by Baylor and Scott Drew. At least they are a good ranked team. I just miss the days when people were scared to come to AFH and the place was loud. I swear every year I go it gets quieter and more folks sitting down on cell phones.
I will agree with you there. I've have noticed myself , not like it use to be. Oh it CAN BE. - - BUT if we get behind 6-7 points and playin ehh. - it becomes very silent, real fanatics need to be 100 % - - all the time. -Make it a place NO ONE wants to come play at.

@jayballer73 ask anyone that’s ever been a game, they will tell you we boo other teams man.
And your suppose to be proud of that ? - - That's NOT a fan , that's an idiot
Well , let me say this again . At the present time , this is NOT a Championship team.
Things are playing a major part right now. #1 Teams are starting to figure out how to defend us. - -until we can prove different you will see more and more. - Going to see teams back off make KU beat them from the outside , double Doke every time he touch's the ball , give their team mate weakside help with Doke.
Until the guys can prove that they can make that outside J /3 pt shot on a consistent bases , your going to see more and more of a sagging defense.
Today was a perfect example , if we can't hit the outside J with any regularity why should they press up on us ? Allows then to give help defense on the interior. # 2 - If we don't clean up this mess of taking care of the ball - - - these are things that are keeping us from being a Championship team at this point. We can't just hit one - - or two 3"s and expect to change things. At this point I would think at the present time this is more of a Sweet Sixteen team - possibly Great 8 - but for sure not a final 4 team , not with how we are playing - just not.

@jayballer73 once again I didn’t boo anyone and next time I go, I’ll record the other team getting booed repeatedly.

PharmacyHawk said:
Long time lurker here, but I couldn't stay silent any longer. Those above me who feel booing their own team is ok, that we should immediately fire our coach, that our players don't care, etc etc - just stop. It's people like you that I never go back to that other site as it runs rampant there. Win, lose, we are Jayhawks. I've been a fan since my dad took me to the Phog as a little guy and fell in love with it all. Went to school there for 6 years and camped for every single game. Had great wins and hard losses, but that's part of the game. I completely understand it's upsetting, but to target and boo your own team? Sad. Hell I think leaving early is sad. You know this is wrong and if you don't, well, you're just another privileged fan KU has so many of.
These guys bust their ass all year long. They clearly played hurt today, show at least a modicum of respect.
Sorry for the rant and I hate that this is my first post... just something I'm passionate about. Rock Chalk.
