@BeddieKU23

Spot on. I had high hopes that his shooting would be better since he allegedly spent all Summer improving it. His shot will not improve this season and KU better not let him close to whoever was working with him. Apparently they chose to keep his really bad shooting form intact and just make it more effective when they really should have started from scratch, fixing his shooting form first and then making it more effective.

ya your right. - -I like you had heard how hard he had worked on his shot over the Summer , - -just hasn't shown anything on the shot this year , would of been nice.

Just goes to show that very true a kid can still contribute in a lot of different ways for the team. - -Marcus a really good defender , rebounds better then what I had thought , -so he still adds a very important element for us means a lot. - - Mitch is kind of the same way - - -a kid that's not gonna score a lot - -but still contributes in key area's - -the kid just brings his lunch box every game - -every time called upon , - does really well and willing to step in and take charges and at key times in the game at times - - can block the shot better then I ever thought he would. - -So YES there are a lot of ways for guys to contribute in games other then just score -takes a team effort in what ever way works. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

The les miles effect in recruiting • Dec 17, 2018 01:38 AM

I've got a question and it doesn't deal with any one here or AT LEAST I haven't seen anyone here mention of this.

My question is and a lot of others wondering also - -noticing already there are some that is disappointed at our recruits so far - -not liking the caliber of recruits we pulling in. - -My response to a train of thought like that is - - -WTF

Come on know -- let's get real - - -pull your baggie out - -take a good hit - -then step back - - slap your bitch as and get a really good cold hard dose of what people call -- REALITY.

What in the hell are some people thinking? Coach Miles coming in here at this late of stage in recruiting and we have some just insane idiots that just because it's Les Miles he is ONLY going to land 5 * recruits - - -umm HELLO - - - -Houston - - we have a problem - -for these kind of thinking idiots - -get your head - -out that ass and realize , no matter who the hell you are it's gonna take time - -just try and remember how sorry this dam program's shape it's in

So to thoseof you thinking like that -- now Step Back give yourself a good really fricken hard sucker punch to the groin - -and say oh shit guess maybe these others are right. - -He comes in and has to try an assemble a staff - - plus recruit in what like right about 2 months?

I think with the amount of time Les ha had - -assemble staff and then umm let's go back down memory lane shall we? - - GOOD - -so let's take a lil looksie back to not that long ago -we had ONE -- - -ONE fricken recruit with nothing on the horizon - -and yet now we have FIVE -- Five in that short amount of time - -are they 5 * - no - -but for the amount of time Coach has had - -he has done fine

Now you give Les and the Staff a full year to recruit? - -you just sit back - - hide and watch - -see how this guy recruits - - Holy Bat Shit - -I mean GOG - -DOGGIES - - REALLY? --SERIOUSLY? - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@KirkIsMyHinrich - during the last “consultation” Villanova took during a KU free throw attempt, the look on the ref’s face was quite stern. He was almost angry but didn’t assess a technical against Villanova. Too bad.

@jayballer73 - you Know Mahomes will be in Lawrence for the TTU game. Any guesses on the colors he wears? Or will he go straight for Chiefs colors?

Starting to see a lot more talk - -I thinking something has leaked -You tell me - -Why would Coach just bring Silvio's name up in the post game out of the clear blue - -going right in stride with things starting to stir - -and then Silvio Tweet - - - interesting tweet at that .- - Who know's

Ok here is a question I got. - - -With the funk Quentin is in right now - - -we are roughly like through a 1/3 of the way through the season - -so let me ask if Quentin can't get this thing turned around by let's say oh 1/2 through the conference season then the question become - - - - Do anybody think that there is a chance even the slightest chance that Quentin would come back for a Soph season?

The easy logical answer would be he for should - -but the question here is do you think he would? - Because currently his draft status is in a rapid free fall - - cause Currently he is such a deep funk -- really got in his head. At this point I just think he is just over thinking the game to much. -- Just go out and play -- just turn it loose just go play.

Not only has he lost his shot - - he is not even making layups right now. - - he is making horrible decisions -- making bad passes - -he is hurting the team actually - - -not really rebounding - -not scoring - -turning the ball over - -gettin himself in foul trouble - right now is just plain LOST. On top of that Coach Self's leash is getting shorter and shorter with him -which I think sometimes you just got to let a kid play through things - -if it get's to a point where to he is constantly looking at the bench to see if he is gonna get yanked -- that's not good. -- So what you think? - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@jayballer73 By this time last year, we had lost by 9 to Washington, and lost by 10 to Arizona St in back to back games. the very next game, we beat Nebraska by 1 point. We were 1 point away from losing 3 in a row. I feel like last year turned out pretty good. One thing we seem to do well is fight and compete, because we've played and beat some pretty good teams so far. The way conference is shaping up, it might end up being easier than what we're facing non-conf.

I will agree with you to some things for sure buddy. - - The thing about it is - - we have been in tight ball games most the year -- we have played form behind a lot - -this HAS to help us in Conference or in ANY game as far as that goes - -be like ho hum - here we are again lol - -but your right they don't give up - just keep digging.

Still think we gonna have some battles though for sure in conference - -I think Tech is looking pretty dam tough - K-Straight - might give us some issues in cow town - -plus you have to think SURELY were gonna get things rolling later lots of room for improvement - -yet - -some how - -some way - -we are 9-0 - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@jayballer73 Well, you're right on both counts. Grimes is completely lost. It will make the time he "finds it" even more satisfying ... so long as it's this season.

And we are playing with a loaded gun. We know it will go off in our face. Teams like this have the gun go off in March. We know that. A FF will be a surprise at this point. However ... big "however" .. lots of time to for cohesiveness to build, and identity to be found.

Funny how we thought we were so deep. Not at the moment.

very true - -I mean if teams scheme to shut down Dedric - -at this point and time we are in some Serious trouble. Again true and again at this point THIS is not a FF team - I think we are for sure over ranked right now. - -Top 5 probably a lot more accurate then # 1 - -sorry if that hurts guys but were -- -just not.

Quite possibly for example - -if we had Doke playing quite possibly could of been would of been a lot different. - -Cause just have to have another scoring option , for sure going to have to have it come Tourney time - -but that's along ways down the road - - Devon helps - -has played solid - - Marcus helps in a lot of ways but no offensive threat what so ever - -let's just hope we keep sawing wood lol -- get better. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Grimes has just gotten beyond lost. - - Not sure what's going on, could be something else - -who knows - -would be crazy if he never comes around - and still leaves or transfer out - - maybe he just isn't adapting - -something sure the hell wrong.

I tell you what guys - -right now KU is messing with a loaded gun - -if we don't get this crap straightened - - one of these times that gun is gonna go off in our face. -- -we are playing off a prayer right now. - - Just for one sure would be nice not have to worry about it coming down to a last shot. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@jayballer73

Hopefully Garrett is guarding him because they will also play roundtree which is a better match up defensively for dedric. The simple fact that Marcus will get out on him and Dedric wont makes this a no brainer. That is unless nova plays 4 guards.

Booth I figure will see some Dotson and Grimes. Gillispie and Cremo let it fly so between the 3 it's really about staying grounded and not giving them 10 15 open looks. If they shoot 30 and at least 20 are guarded what can we do if they make em. I hope we play well early. Cannot be in a hole against this team early.

They was talking on our local sports talk show they figure the phog is gonna be off the charts - -hoping maybe it can get to this different Villanova team. - -they were talking to the Villanova commentator that broadcasts their games - -He said that Jay wright had told him that his kids have NO IDEA what the team is in store for lol - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@jayballer73 Thanks. I do remember them saying the name Keenan Garber. Agree it looks like Dineen would want to follow his brothers.

Not really sure how this is going to turn out , I was thinking we had a good shot with these guys, but again have been reading and AGAIN it's just a he said - - she said like a bunch of ol ladies gossiping but , just read to day that supposedly - - Les didn't want to offer Jax a scholarship but KU wanted him to walk on - - hearing that the Dineen family wasn't reeving that to well. seeing that they had 2 other Dineen's already play for us at KU

I guess the new KSU coach has had an in home visit with Jax and the family -- went pretty well - -and THEY offered a full ride stressing that fullback was a part of their offensive set. - -Then I guess North Dakota or South whichever the hell it was NDS - also had offered a full ride

So with those two schools offering full rides to a walk on that's not good if true - -you combine that with Garber already giving a verbal to KSU -it could turn out that indeed Jax teams up with Keenan as a package and commits to K-state , again just jibber - - jabber like old ladies how solid info is it? - -I dunno. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

I heard at coffee this morning that the new Kitty coach would be in Lawrence tomorrow to talk with a couple Free State boys. This info from some kstate fans. Does anyone know who they might be? And is our staff in contact with them also? Sure hope we do not let them come into our home town and steal our kids. Especially if they are D1 worthy. DAMN!!!!

you can take it to the bank that the two he will be talking to is the one that is already committed to KSU- - what's his name ( Garber or is it Barber & Dineen) -- the talk has been since Synder resigned -that KU was trying to get Barber to flip - -there has been talk of him and Dineen wanting to be a package. - -Man I would think with Jax's brother playing here he would want to come also - -it he comes to KU then the other might come here to with the other free state guys on the roster.

This is a critical step in rebuilding the program. While some may think I am down on Kansas HS football (I am not), having those local ties is critically important. We need to repair the bridges that were burned in the past, largely by Charlie Weis.

We need to do the same on the Missouri side of the metro area. KU also needs to have a stronger presence in the Wichita area.

Instate talent won't be the base - Kansas simply doesn't produce enough D1 talent year in and year out to do that, even if KU were to land every prospect each year. But it can act as a starting point.

Outrecruiting K-State, Mizzou, Iowa and Nebraska in the KC metro area is the first step. Securing Wichita from the Oklahoma schools is step 2.

very true and I think when Les said he was making it a priority to recruit , check out the Kansas kids - -this is a Coach that is actually following through, and repair and reconnect with Kansas high schools - -Kids and Coach's - -Coach's of these kids play an important role in this too.

If you turn a Coach off or ignore possible recruits that he thinks might have a chance - -you snub him - -then it can turn South in a hurry and then the word spreads - -Gonna take a lot to reconnect and then when there are some really sweet kids - -GOOD LUCK.

@kjayhawks Nova has been in the game for decades. I would rank them ahead of Indiana in blue blood wanna be status. Still, they remain as wanna bes in the grand hierarchy of things. Was florida a blue blood because they won back to back?

umm NO. - -I for one would not consider then a blue blood by any means. - -Other then those back to back Championships - -they have accomplished - ummm what?
- -If anything they was a flash in the pan. - Since those championships what have they done?

A blue blood or what I consider a blue blood is the likes of KU - - Kentucky - - N Carolina - - - Duke -plus others that are there - -year after year - -after year. -Schools that are consistently in the upper rankings of the top 25 - -a School that provides something on the terms of being invited to the NCAA tourney like KU has for a number of straight years to the tourney - -a team yes like Kentucky that leads ALL schools in all time wins - -a team like N Carolina that has many NCAA Championships -- Those are true blood. -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Selfishly I want Devon around 4 years. So far he's exceeded even the high expectations I had for him. I'm downright scared he leaves after the year if he starts creeping up into the late first round discussion.

And yes the discussion was about Quin. If he does transfer out at semester's end it would be very interesting to see what schools even have room for him like KU does currently. He'll be in Lawrence as well this weekend which is really a potential benefit if he did leave

YA dum me. - -Hadn't even made that connection that's right he will be here this weekend. - - If he is even remotely thinking about transferring then when he is here this weekend he be able to see what it's like game time - -you now the Phog is going to be insane. - -couldn't hurt. -- ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
