Once again switching 5 with hunt doesn’t work, hasn’t all year. Why doesnt Self get up every morning and hit his hand with a hammer to see if it hurts less after the first month.
@FarmerJayhawk I’d like to see the percentage of teams that made the sweet 16 being 5 games below.500 on the road. It’s probably happened a time or two but bet it’s very low percentage wise. We need your optimism im just realistic man. This team flat out hasn’t impressed me in the slightest.
@approxinfinity zero reason for Juan to be in at this point
@approxinfinity we have a good chance to but too late
@wissox this team hasn’t looked good since beating UConn the truth be told
May as well waive the white and pull Juan
@FarmerJayhawk how much you want put on it?
@wissox top 15 teams don’t go home the first weekend bud.
@jayballer67 this team hasn’t been a top 15 team all year
Gotta get closer every timeout here
Man if we could make a shot, we’d be right there. Let’s see how the first 5 goes I may just go to bed
@BeddieKU23 the sad thing is we’d be within A bucket or two if we could make a simple layup. You know the play my 8 year old sons team practice daily smh.
Think we will keep it within 20 by half?
My god Juan that was nasty in a bad way
Why can’t we recruit players that can make 3s
The missed layups game after is getting old
@DanR he make that all night just needs to take it
Settle in
Not a great start, super late whistle there
Crazy to think about just how bad this team was on Christmas Day and most the season really. The worst tackles in the nfl with Taylor being the most penalized player in the NFL , unproven WR core that led the NFL in dropped passes by a wide margin and Kelce just not looking like himself most the season. I’d be shocked if this team isn’t better offensively next season by a fair amount.
The defense probably takes a little bit of a step back depending on who they can keep. I know Gay, Sneed, Jones and Tranquil all are in contract years. But if you can keep 2 or 3 of them I think they stand a chance to be in the same category next season. The dynasty could keep going but it’s gonna get tougher in the west with Harbaugh.
Mahomes should easily be MVP, led the team in rushing and passing for 400 total yards. Other than the one picked pass played pretty flawless under extreme pressure.
Arguably the best 5 year run in nfl history
Remember KJ saying Hardman could help this team in the playoffs??
Chiefs need to run a roll out to help with pressure
Lucky to be in the game at the half but go get 6 after the break and it’s a whole new game
Nick is capable of coming in and being a lightning bolt on both ends. We have seen flashes of it several times. Stop worrying about scoring and do the little things, you do that good things will happen on offense naturally.
@Texas-Hawk-10 Ya that team looked strong early on when everyone was healthy mentally and physically. Won the NIT vs Tennessee and Vick was a projected lottery pick. The injuries and Grimes, Vick flat out quitting on the team half way thru the season. I remember Charlie having some good games.
Any news on Juan? I feel like Kevin will be out tomorrow no matter what. I hate to say it but the ball movement is better without Kevin, think he was dribbling too much and trying for hero ball far too often.
@wissox I think the 2018 team lost 3 at home if I remember correctly but it definitely wasn’t in a row.
@Texas-Hawk-10 I don’t remember that team having much of a bench at all with KJ Lawson, a D3 caliber player getting minutes. Vick was the best player on that team and Doke when he was healthy. That could’ve been a solid group had Vick not gone nuts and Doke gotten hurt. Those two things killed the depth.
@Gorilla72 He was mad at Nick for having too quick of a trigger after his first 3 make. In the inside access Self was saying move the ball for 20 seconds. He also was the guy that gave up multiple corner 3s, we were fortunate they missed the last 2. He left his man and over helped on the first and didn’t switch on the second attempt. Both silly mistakes this far into the season as a senior. Elmarko I thought was decent defensively tonight, he was credited with 4 steals tho a few of them the ball got knocked to him luckily. But gosh his offense numbers are like he wasn’t on the floor. In 21 minutes he had zero shot attempts and finished with 1 assist and 1 point. That’s unacceptable imo. I honestly am wondering if Jank shouldn’t see some minutes here with how unproductive our guards are off the bench. Hard to believe he could be any worse on the average night.
I really hope we can go undefeated at home this season, feels like it’s been way too long since that happened. I believe we have 3 games left against Texas, BYU and KSU. We have definitely already played our toughest home games on paper but we all know how this team loves to play down to competition. Oddly enough I think that 2019 team was the last to go unbeaten in the Phog.
@Texas-Hawk-10 this team just looks ugly 90% of the time at this point. Tonight is a little bit different in terms of missing our leading scorer and I’m glad we won a gutsy performance. But my gosh you are a 100% correct this maybe the worst bench in the Self era. 2019 and 2012 come to mind but I think this worse. I know people compare this team to the 19 team a fair amount but I think this team would destroy that team by a wide margin.
With UKs home loss today, that is 3 in a row in Rupp.
The chances of us winning without Juan and Kevin have to minuscule
@Crimsonorblue22 I think he has more losses in the building than Self, believe he is 1-20
For how much I liked nicks game boy he tried his best to give it away by leaving the shooter and bricking the free ones
Little bit worried about Juan
That was a lucky break think KJ was on the back there
2 quick shots we didn’t need
We getting spanked on the glass 33-18
Never thought I’d be so excited for a kid to shoot 2/6 from 3 but go Timberlake lol
@wissox love the corner shot, I hit 37 in a row in practice once.
Bench has like 7 points, I think everyone in this building was like go in!!
@StLJhawk the missed wide open 3s and bunnies are at about 15 right now. The only reason it’s a contest
Dunk the damn ball
Better wake up here
2 guys I never get mad at on this team, KJ and Furphy. Both play theirs asses off everytime they hit the court
If we could hit a open 3 we’d be up 15 , about 6 wide open ones and we bricked all of them
Wow bad turn there, we look exhausted in the first half yet again.
