Furphy been so bad recently he might come back
Hilarious lack of shot creation on this team
dajuan best pg in america lmao
Liam Season
Thank god Liam decommited from IU. Don't think there was a single net positive 3 point shooter in the recruiting class other than passmore and I'm not sure he can be relied upon immediately to contribute
@dylans said in Cougar chat:
@rcjhdraft I’d you don’t see it you don’t see it. Not gonna argue.
He's usually good but I'm not gonna single him out as some shining positive when the whole team played like they were scared
@dylans said in Cougar chat:
Wow. KU is really bad without Harris. Not that they were good at any point tonight, but the Harris-less lineup is horrendous
Harris wasn't very good either
@kuballin10 said in Cougar chat:
@rcjhdraft Guaranteed the 1 and 4 starter spots are already locked in
We will whiff on some big recruits at those spots because of the pets
Yeah we aren't winning shit if KJ is starting next season. Not even gonna bother on Harris
Please don't run back this garbage next year.
@kjayhawks said in It will be pretty hard for me to be excited for next year's team:
Bill Self has did Hunter Dickinson will be doing senior night festivities and Juan will not because he is planning staying for next season. So we are not getting a PG for next season.
It'll be fine as long as we replace KJ

KJ 1 rebound smh
the KJ/DaJuan/Hunter triangle isn't modern basketball
Timberlake blew the layup but I can appreciate the aggression
@wissox said in Jayhawks in the pros:
Looks like Gradey has found his groove a bit in Toronto. 4-4 on 3's tonight, 18 points for the 2nd game in a row and 3rd time in 5 games. Gradey is averaging 10.4 per game in February. They wouldn't be talking about UConn as a favorite again if Gradey had stayed for another season. Same two games teammate Ochai has gotten 13 and 14 points.
I've seen raptors fans clamor for them to draft furphy with the success of the other two Kansas wings
Yikes I'd just sit him out for the rest of the regular season and bring him back for the conference tournament so it doesn't effect seeding
@dylans said in Jacque Vaughn fired:
lol. I responded to the article link, I’m guessing it’s the wrong link after reading above. 🤦♂️
@approxinfinity I don’t see productive NBA careers for anyone on the current KU roster expect maybe Furphy could be a back half of the roster guy. There is no future mvp Embiid or even a late devolving all star like Wiggins, but I can see a Hinrich like career for Furphy.
Looking at that mock draft, I know nothing of any of the non-KU players (and the only KU guy I would take is Furphy in the second round or maybe late in the first) Is this a horrible draft or am I just that disconnected? Normally there are a few stars you hear about, this year it’s just Zach Edey and he doesn’t do much for me. No Wemby in this draft and not many college stars, what gives? Does the marketing suck or is it a lack of elite play?
This draft sucks but it seems like the league is way higher than furphy than you are. I've seen for the most part top half of the first round projections for him
We should've never lost to k-state
@BeddieKU23 said in 2023-2024 Statistics:
Currently this is the 2nd lowest rated team in the Self Era per Kenpom. Only the 2020-21 team ended rated lower, they lost in the 2nd round.
For further reference, the team rated the closest to this one (03-04) made the Elite 8. Perhaps an outlier since the next 5 lowest rated teams lost in the 1st or 2nd round. Hopefully this year is another outlier
I'd say the difference is this year's team has proven they can beat elite competition, whereas that team got the doors blown off whenever they played anyone elite with the exception of that one Baylor game where they were coming off covid
Since Furphy made the last 3 we have seen seemingly everyone else shoot a 3 other than him
Timberlake stringing together some good offensive performances
@kuballin10 said in KU vs Tech chat:
@rcjhdraft Hunter I swear is hurt. Can’t hit the 3 like he used too and been missing close stuff around the rim.
It can all come together in March just get healthy. Screw the big 12…win it in KC and roll into the ncaa tourney ready
I think synergy wise I'd rather bank on furphy's shooting instead of trusting KJ on anything outside the paint. Way higher ceiling
Furphy becoming the third option after today
Good riddance to the KJ HD Dajuan fit good lord
Furphy's made some great strides in terms of self creation. Sadly has corresponded with a regression in 3 pt shooting
Did Timberlake just burn all the goodwill he created in that last minute
What a shitty half from HD
Wow can't believe elmarko got away with that
Does HD have a dislocated finger or something these misses are crazy
Predictable turnover we always overthrow those full court passes
Soft foul from KJ
@StLJhawk said in McCullar out vs Baylor:
Furph needs to start making 3s, tho he is doing everything else pretty well. DJ needs to flash us some of the old brilliance. Bill needs to stop getting technicals. Hunt needs to stay close to the basket and not foul. Someone, anyone, on the bench needs to look like they belong on the floor. Any of these and we should win.
The timing of some of these techs has been absolutely brutal. The Iowa state one swung the game end of first half
Elmarko has inexplicable mistakes but he's probably here for the future and his ceiling is higher I'd probably ride with him
Timberlake is such a terrible athlete can't win a single loose ball
Ochai got traded to Toronto so I guess the raptors will be a popular team to follow now with both him and gradey
@kjayhawks said in Other bball games:
@rcjhdraft I get mad everytime I think about. I’m starting to question our strength and conditioning if we are so tired all the time when other teams don’t seem to be. Bring Hudy back this soft
It's inexplicable given the experience on this team to be this soft on the road
@kjayhawks said in Other bball games:
@rcjhdraft yep that’s exactly why I said KU still had a one seed shot with a win last night. Clemson prob isn’t a tournament team and UNC lost to them at home.
Yeah makes me more pissed about this loss. Every time this team has had a 1 seed or the #1 ranking in front of them they blow it against garbage opposition
UNC with a letdown loss against Clemson
Honestly felt like every bounce went against us this game. Hell even that Tylor Perry turnover went through KJ's arms near the end of regulation. Brutal loss
Pissed away the 1 seed
Lmao
DAjuan been unbelievable
This team's just pathetic on the road
we always get screwed by foul trouble in this shithole
The awareness of these guys once they enter the paint is astounding. Furphy is wide open behind KJ and he decides to settle on that midrange pull up
Kevin has totally regressed as a passer
Mccullar is such an embarrassment on the road
