@nuleafjhawk I was thinking the same thing. Maybe KU should go with who has the hot hand. Jalon seems off.
@nuleafjhawk No. This is a Big 12 crew. Last week was Big 10.
Jalon does not look sharp at all.
The good guys have looked impressive this 1st half. The hurry up offense of Illinois may present problems since that led to their only score so far. Keep it up KU!
@kjayhawks You called it!!
@jayballer67 No Jalen, but looking good so far! 3 and out on defense and TD with 1st possession.
@wissox If you are serious, he was a HS player that pledged to play at KU and then left after 1 month because Lawrence was “too country” and he did not “fit” with the team, so he pledged to Gonzaga, but once again changed his mind. He is looking for the right “fit.” I think it would be better to find the right “fit” before you commit.
P. S. The country thing is strange to me because I heard he was the great-grandson of Grizzly. (Who remembers the show?)
It was on the national news. Hope it was accidental, but a loaded weapon by spectators should not be brought into any sports venue in my opinion.
I have Hulu live with Disney+ and ESPN+. I had had Sling, but then it had a disagreement with ESPN and I was not going to miss the Jayhawks, so I jumped over to Hulu live with never having to worry about having ESPN available. It has FS1 and all the games that KU plays. I think Hulu live and youtubetv are similar in a lot of ways, but they don’t carry the same channels entirely. I picked Hulu because the ESPN+ was included, but I don’t watch a lot of pro sports, so I don’t know about how much of those are included.
@Texas-Hawk-10 So does it bother you when it was used by some of the greatest authors, such as James Joyce, Charlotte Brontë, Charles Dickens, F. Scott Fitzgerald in a figurative sense? I would say that it is colloquially used quite often. I understand that everyone has their pet peeves, but I find this one interesting.
I am kidding by the way.
@FarmerJayhawk Was that code for Hunter Dickinson? They share the same initials.
Otherwise, have a great time!
@wissox Here is an article that discusses staging and Gleason scores. https://www.cancer.net/cancer-types/prostate-cancer/stages-and-grades ↗
@TYOHawk Just like Quentin Grimes did not do well at KU, but thrived at Houston and is playing in the NBA now. What I am saying is that 1 bad year should not decide if he is good or not. He was good enough to be recruited to KU initially, so the question should be why did he not play well this past year. Was it the fit? His confidence? Life situations that can mess with focus and ability? His ego not recognizing that he had areas to improve? I don’t know the answers, but I have not heard about any off court behavior that would put a bad light on the program. Where do we draw the line between tolerating talent on the court and behaviors that are harmful to others? In the scheme of things, which is more important?
Wish Chris luck and hope he is willing to take constructive criticism, so he can grow as a player. He may be a lot better than he played last year due to off-court issues. I am not saying that I know this to be true, though. Personally, I don’t believe the on-court ceiling of AM outweighs the off-court questionable behavior, but I will trust HCBS knows more than I do about the situation. It will be interesting to see who made the better decision.
@Crimsonorblue22 Oscar has a 2 way contract with the Pacers
@wissox There is always next year. Keep the faith!
@BShark poisonous, constrictor, or bull? Or could it be all 3? I am asking for a friend.
He really crossed the line. What a turkey! Strike him from ever coaching again!
Sorry, just trying to be p(f)unny. 🙄
That is supposed to be a monocle, but it looks like an eye patch. LOL.
@approxinfinity From what I have read, he has been doing specific exercises to help lessen the risk of injury. His father and mother both are athletes, which I think helps them to appreciate ways in preventing injury. He has had a stress fracture of his tibia and had broken a finger, but he has been playing with men professionally since 15 years old and has excelled. Obviously, the NBA will be a major step-up with respect to skill and physicality. Only time will tell. (unless you think that time is a human construct to make sense of our strange world and that everything is happening at the same time. Then maybe we all know already, just not consciously. 🧐)
Rick Pitino always reminds me of Al Pacino in The Devil’s Advocate.
@jayballer67 I knew what you meant. No worries. Gave me a laugh.
I was typing it in, when you sent the article. Beat me to it.
FYI, exhibitionism is AKA flashing. We want the team to play basketball. Not end up in jail! 😂
@approxinfinity
Mexico City has a NBA G League team since 2016.
@approxinfinity https://www.statista.com/statistics/1016213/interest-basketball-mexico/ ↗
Yes, it is several years old, but it shows more interest than football and baseball.
https://www.zenger.news/2021/02/19/scoring-points-with-fans-the-history-of-mexican-basketball/ ↗ Here is an article I came across to gauge the interest of basketball in Mexico. I think Yormark may be onto something here.
@nuleafjhawk My coworker’s friend’s acquaintance told him that he saw Bill fly into Area 51 to visit family and he came out at Skinwalker Ranch. So, I think there is something to it. High Strangeness indeed!
FYI. I had heard that Self was holding onto that last scholarship trying to recruit Bigfoot, AKA Harry Stench. He has low basketball IQ, but he is a wide body that will keep players out of the lane.
That’s where that red face comes from! Different kind of blood.
Looks like he has landed at TCU.
True stats do not lie. Sometimes unethical people will “cook” the data to make it look better than it really is or there is unintentional bias that affects the accuracy of stats. With stats, it is usually that 90% fall under a bell curve and then 10% are outliers, 5% above and 5% below. I would lean toward your grandfather being an outlier.
I am in the health care field, so I did a little research on this topic myself. Length of survival after an AVR (aortic valve replacement) procedure for a low-risk younger pt, which I am assuming he is low-risk, had a median lifespan of 16 years after the procedure. This is from an article in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology from Nov 2021. I saw another article stating that it would reduce a typical lifespan by about 8 years, but this is much better than the 2 to 3 year survival rate without the valve replacement. And that 2-3 years is not with a very good quality of life.
@jayballer67 I totally agree that this could bite KU in the ass in the future. Hopefully not, but I will not be surprised. Recruiting over what you already have and not allowing growing pains with the younger bigs or any player for that matter will bring hesitation to any HS recruit and his family. The IARP and now this could hurt recruiting for years to come unless the player is more interested about money than playing basketball. And unless there is a clause within the NIL that states that maximum payment is based upon effort/performance, then there is no guarantee that the players will perform to their potential.
Obviously, I don’t know much about how NIL works, so if I am wrong about that, then let me know.
@Crimsonorblue22 Thanks for the article.
@jayballer67 I thought so too until I looked at the schedule with the game starting tomorrow at 9:00, but it does not specify if the time is EST or CST.
CB plays tomorrow night and Och is not in the playoffs.
