How many of ya have takin notice on not only this night but almost for the last couple of weeks - dam seems the commentators - -any commentators - -All the commentators - seems like even more then other teams players - how bad they don't wanting us to win the Title - hell they talk more about us losing the title then the ball games they suppose to be broadcasting - -pretty sad. -- don't know how many times I've hear this crap

I mean seriously - -as bad of a year -- well it's not bad for ALOT of Colleges- -there would be a ton of Schools that would love to have our record - - but a down year for us to a degree. Yet for as bad has it been with injuries - -inconsistent play - - players Waling - for us to still be even in the conversation says quite a bit for these guys. - -

All I got to say is also is enjoy your yr of prevalence beat that chest - enjoy -cause as you have heard. - - Hell even the SUN has to shine on a Dog's ASS sometime - enjoy this year and right back to mecoridity - -we all knew it HAD to end sometime - proud of the guys. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Les Miles Coaching Staff • Feb 28, 2019 12:08 PM

Well just read where we have a new addition to the staff. Keith Belton the assistant Strength and Conditioning Coach from USC - - is coming on board for us.

Belton played football at Syracuse , was a running back - - had a four yr stint in the NFL - before going into the field. other previous stops in College has been at Wake Forrest , Baylor , and Washington. - sounds like pretty popular with players. - USC has taken a huge hit with their strength and Conditioning - -Head Coach left for the Seahawks - now we getting Belton , some of the USC players was even trying to get him hired as the Head Coach for the program Sounds like a nice addition for our program. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Big 12 games • Feb 27, 2019 09:25 PM

@BeddieKU23 I would agree - -this K-State game now has become a lot bigger to them - - terrible loss for them. - Like you say they need it now to motoviate them try to get back on the right side if they want considered at all - let's see when do they play? - That's what next Tuesday? - -it's at TCU right? - -K-State needs to take this L - -for multiple reasons. - -

You know though for what WV has went through this year - -OLD Huggy has got all that he could from what he has - -I mean ya plenty of really rough games for them - But like last night they got the win - -They beat Oklahoma - They beat us - they DID have K-State down by 20 at K-State - they hung around with some teams for a time - -All in All Huggy has gotten more of out what he has to work with. -he has him a couple of good players - - - McCade looks like a pretty decent player - - Culver is going to be a stud it looks like -- pretty good right now

New 2019 Recruiting • Feb 27, 2019 06:52 PM

Was just reading a post of another site about Precious from another person on the phog. - he stated that Precious has a Mentor , name of OZ Cross. - that OZ Cross worked under Coach Roberts when he was at St Johns - - - said that KU kept in contact with I guess precious for a long time - - - and saying with this Cross working under Roberts while at St Johns that thinks it could help us now.

So my question is - - does this send up a red flag? -- dealing with another Mentor or what the hell ever you wanna call these guys.? - -It just seems I'm starting to think- -anytime there is a mentor or whatever - there come baggage - -issues - -problems if that's the case - -w sure the hell DONT NEED anymore. - I dunno IF this is the case I myself would be really leary after all the junk that has been coming on.

So I have another question. So basically we are now down for any hope for any recruit for 2019 - -we either have Hurt - - -Precious - - OR Stanley right? - -That's it?

Seems like we are losing Hurt to Duke more likely then not now Precious? -- just don't know - -think our chances are pretty slim with him anyways - -Stanley who knows? - haven't heard ANYTHING with him for some time. - - Last I knew thought had heard we were sitting in a fairly good spot with him - -just so quiet- anyone heard anything more - seems like this year is COMPLETE BUST. - Anybody got any other fairly remote chance of us landing? - -GOD I hope so. - -ROCK CHALKALL DAY LONG BABY

Big 12 games • Feb 27, 2019 06:42 PM

I also really think TCU is in trouble making the tourney. - They said ol Joey had them as a 10 before the loss last night. - -They just must beat K-State I think at this point to try and save face for the NCAA tourney -they need a big win I think to have any chance. - - Beat K-State - then win a game or two in the Big 12 tourney - for them to get invited. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY.

Now looking to me as Texas Tech - - -K-State - - Baylor - - KU - - Iowa State - Oklahoma is shaky at best - - - that's why we better be ready for our game thee, - -I don't think Texas makes it without Roach - -Oklahoma St - -& West Virginia- lol - -ya.

I realistically guys only see 5 teams at this point. - - MAYBE - -MAYBE Oklahoma - well let me put it this way - -one of two teams sneaking in for our sixth team - Okla - -OR Texas - one of those two MIGHT get in - as like a play in -or a - 14-15 seed. - -I just DO NOT fek very comfortable with us getting a sixth team in now. -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Our lunch pail • Feb 26, 2019 05:03 PM

Guys I know , we have talked about - - hashed/rehashed this before , but it's just hard for me to contain myself my friends. This is all about Mitch and giving Mitch some spotlight.

Mitch is truly what KU is all about - - Mitch is KU , the kid Truly , Truly , Truly loves this school - -no matter what , what the circumstances may be Mitch is going to bring what he can - -Night in - - Night out. Very , very true may not be the most talented kid compared to others BUT that heart he brings - makes up for a lot , Mitch plays with a lot of heart - every time out - -and ENERGY the kid is just Energy , Energy , Energy. - and to an extent it rubs off - I think it rubbed off for sure last night.

The kid just " Brings that lunch pail " - every time out. - -I think a reason he doesn't get the accolades a little MORE umm take notice is - - MOST of what he does is more of - -the dirty work - -things like box out's - -rebounding - - now true he may get overmatched - - pushed around at times in rebounding , - -may not be able to hold position on defense at times - -but it's not from lack of effort - - most of that bottom line is just his structure his body frame - not being bulk enough. Yet he brings it - - I mean look you'll see him - -rebounding - -getting what he can get which isn't that bad - - got 6 last night - - pretty sure he is our leading shot blocker - - - for me - - -I never thought he would be nearly as aggressive of a shot blocker that he is - - - -seems like he really almost loves sacrificing his body to step in - -take that charge - - -I know he has to lead the team in charges drawn - not even close I don't think - -Scores some - which unless I'm missing something I along with others were already aware that's not what he does in huge number - - just not him

Sittin here pondering this morning remember how some was thinking Mitch might transfer - -Alot of people including me thought this would be a very good year for him to Red Shirt - -stll think that would of been good - -( strictly for bulk ) getting stronger -but as the way it has turned out - -glad that didn't happen. - - As for Mitch transferring - -the talk earlier - I knew thats not happening - -Mittch loves this School - -again Mitch is KU basketball - -he just does the things that go un-noticed as much - -the dirty work - - the lunch pail on the team - most look for those points - - monster blocks - NOT MITCH - I for one am Glad Mitch is here - - -Our Dirty work - - Our Lunch Pail - - Mitch IS KU . - - - Thanks guys for letting me rant - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@Woodrow The Suns will not be giving JJ a 2nd contract. It's almost guaranteed at this point.

You said he would not be getting a second contract. Insinuating he will be out of the league when his first one runs out. The Suns might not sign him and if he was smart he wouldn't resign with that dumpster fire, but he will sign a second contract with a team.

it may not be with that pit hole but ya Josh will get a 2nd contract. - - Phoenix has a lot of more problems then Josh - place is a dam dumpster fire - Josh would do really well to get the hell out of there. - -He is NOT their main reason for their situation

HighEliteMajor said:

@Kcmatt7 Correct. Bennett is a hard no for me. But that's just my opinion. Hard no on Turgeon ( @BShark ) as well.

@Woodrow So, you would not see Beard moving from a school with zero hoops history, from the western plains of Texas, in a football state, to arguably one of the top 4 jobs in the country, a true blue blood, with built in recruiting advantages, FF opportunities even in off years, at a school that lives and breathes CBB? I dare say you might revisit that thought ... or am I loopy?

I'm right there with you on Bennet. - It would have to be a Hard No , for the same reason - -His style of ball puts me to sleep

Top Bill Self Replacement Candidates • Feb 25, 2019 10:02 PM

Tony might be a very good Coach - -but it is just really really hard for me to try and stomach his style of play - can't get past the years of where he just had another one of those team that play at slower then a Snell's pace - -he IS after all the only #1 to lose to a 16 in NCAA history. - It's not that though - I again just do not like the style of offense it's boring as hell. - -

I don't think we have anything to worry about on this anyways for the next 5 yrs at least minimum - he isn't going anywhere - till at least and then that's IF he does then - -, true this year has been rough - -very Rough for him , and I know cause I've heard from interviews from other Coach's that the recruiting aspects is a bitch for these guys - - This has been talked about before and I'll say again I'm not really worried to much about the NBA for Bill yet having said that I truly believe the ONLY NBA job that he could/ - -possibly would go to would be the Spurs replacing POPS.

I know at one point Bill had some Connections with the upper office I think isn't it Alvin Gentry that works in the office for the Spurs - -I think with the Connections there - that would be the only interest for him - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Wish I could say I'm shocked by this. But I just think you look at what Self has done with potential OADs compared to K and Cal and he's clearly in 3rd place. That makes the decision much easier.

I won't be even a little bit surprised if Hurt ends up going elsewhere. The threat of a probation probably isn't helping recruiting at all...
