Morris 17 points in his return from injury. BMac played 8 minutes. Wiggins gets 28.
Nice production tonight from some former Hawks.

MONSTER GAME IN CHARLOTTE!!!! JOEL SCORES 43 with 15 boards and 7 assists. OUBRE SCORES 35 with 5 boards 3 assists and 4 steals!!! Sixers win in OT.
Whistle every time down the court in this Illinois Iowa game. Of the Iowa coach throws a Frantrum on every whistle. Easiest the whiniest annoyingest coach I've ever seen. Kofi 18 points, 18 boards so far, 4 minutes left. Illinois by 10
@Gorilla72 LOL Fraudida loses to a winless SWAC team. SEC sucks!

My high school classmate is known as Doppler Dave in El Paso.
@jayballer67 In the movie he made it.
@Crimsonorblue22 I agree they've regressed badly. I still want to play them. It's a rivalry. They were always my favorite games on the schedule.
The famous team that wouldn't have happened because they called JoJo out of of bounds when he wasn't. Still glad it happened because they beat Kentucky, but I'd rather us having had the chance to beat Kentucky.
I like playing Missouri and wouldn't mind Wichita at all.
@BShark Oh, sorry I missed it.
Yes, that Loyola Marymount team was fun. Not to be confused with the Loyola of Chicago a team that actually won a NC 3 years before UTEP and in reality was the first African American dominant team to win the title.
@BShark Purdue will be the flavor du jour until someone knocks them off and people say 'see, we told you about them'.
Was really glad OSU knocked Duke down so we don't have to listen to it non-stop about that team and K's farewell tour.
One of the KU greats passed away at age 98. While politics has always been divisive, I long for the era of his politics when people disagreed strongly but did it in a way that doesn't happen as much anymore.
I always appreciated his humility. While not a native Kansan ever, as many of you are, his attempt at the presidency was interesting. While Clinton's detractors attempted to slander him with his draft dodging, as well as the younger Bush, Bob Dole was a WW2 wounded veteran who apparently never had use of his shoulder again. Yet seemingly he could have made that a part of who he was in the '96 election and gained votes but didn't. Americans love a war hero and he seemed to fit that bill.
In reality being wounded in the war probably has no bearing on how you'd be as a president, so maybe it's a moot point.
Wondering what your thoughts of Bob Dole were as Kansans? Certainly many of you remember him as a Kansas senator.
We could become Grinnell who plays it faster than anyone ever.

It was just a fun game last night. I know it’s not the wave of the future! Btw the badgers did the same today scoring 67 points in the last 25 minutes of clock time. It was fun to see two days in a row quite similar results!

There's a horrible game on ESPNU right now between 0-6 Robert Morris and 1-6 UW Milwaukee. What's fascinating about it is UWM has a probable OAD playing. Patrick Baldwin was one of the top ranked guys in his class, and instead of going to the usual schools he stayed home because UWM's coach is his dad. He's missed 3 games so that might explain their 1-6 record but it is still a pretty bad looking team.
Defense is overrated. Chicks dig the long ball. The showtime Lakers were way more entertaining than the Bad Boy champion Pistons who dared anyone to try to score against them. Jerry Tarkanian lives again in Lawrence. This fast fill up the bucket team is way more fun than the grind it out tough as nails defense team of some of Self's editions.
I want offense. Just score more than the other team daggummit. I want threes to fly, acrobatics from Ochai and KJ and CB. Give me more menacing stares from Christian after an impressive dunk. Give me more drive and dishes from Harris to back dooring dunkers.
Lets see those 3 balls fly with abandon. Heck even the ones that don't find the net are filled with anticipation of a suddenly expanded lead. When the other team makes one which it appears they will against us, go ahead and make 2, and then when the other guys are guarding the line lob it to tonights version of Dave and watch him miraculously maneuver the ball into the 10 foot high goal.
Remy Martin man! This dude's got that swagger that needs to be unleashed. We want to see him put up 30 the next night and then after Ochai has his chance to do it again. I can see it there. He's holding back, a child held inside a miserable schoolroom for too long ready to run outside and let loose. Man this guy needs to let it fly! It's fun n gun with Remy and the Hawks!
Tonight was fun! It's really not fun to be honest to watch us score 95 points against Case Western University or Alaska Panhandle State. But to go on the road against a Power 5 opponent with some star power of their own (more Champagne anyone?) in the bright lights of NYC, or at least its suburbs, and, get this, a bunch of kids from the midwest wheat belt, well that's fun! I want more games like this.
I want more Mitch Lightfoot laughing on his way to the bench after doing something silly that it even looked like Self was laughing too. I mean its a game man! Mitch has great reasons to smile. He's like 24 and he's still in college playing on a powerhouse college basketball team, and having fun! I love the guy. (get irked by the hate towards him to be honest) That block led to the greatest play of the night when the ref initiated an offensive foul right into the other coach! This is fun!
It's fun watching this version tonight of the Jayhawks. Now I know it's just an anomaly. I'm sure the team will revert back to the standard Bill Self system and we'll grit our teeth on the way to another 30 win season and high seed in the dance, all while flexing our muscles in a more familiar version. But what the heck, lets see tonights version of Jayhawk basketball play ball!
Bill Self? I love the guy. He wins, he recruits system guys who with a few exceptions don't go on to starring roles in the league. They cause Bills face to turn various shades of crimsonorblue during frustrating segments of games when it doesn't happen the way he'd like. It frustrates us too of course as he asserts his will on the team and those he's charged with defeating. But maybe just maybe after tonight we get to unleash some more Fun N' Gun on the Big12.
Oh yes, I almost forgot, it'd be even funner methinks if Zach Clemence plays more than a few minutes.
Oh and it'd be even more fun if we made more FT's. It's the only reason really why we're not undefeated right now and ranked right behind, or maybe above Purdue in the top spot. That'd be fun too!
LP's done! I'm on a roll. Think I'll go put up the Christmas lights, uh, well, it's 11:20, guess I'm done rolling.
@nwhawkfan I was so inspired I went out after the game and ran a sub 9 minute mile! First ever, of course, still 5 minutes off fellow Jayhawk Ryun's pace!
@Crimsonorblue22 LP's due by midnight Friday and not a second later!
@Crimsonorblue22 Yes indeed!
Gotta go write stupid lesson plans. See you all later.
@DanR Wait, you're actually listening to them? :)
LOL, that graphic had us playing two games on the 18th.
This shouldn't hide the fact that Clemence should be playing ahead of Mitch.
This game has been fun, a blast.
@tundrahok No, he was set. He was in perfect legal guarding position.......except he's a coach
I think Anderson was set. Ref probably guilty of the offensive foul.
@nwhawkfan Who?
@BeddieKU23 Is he on their football team too?
Martin got up a little gingerly
Now the worst 3 minutes of basketball since Naismith...
This has been the worst two minutes of basketball since Naismith wrote them rules.
@DanR Forgot to add "Said no bucketeer ever"
I like the idea of Wilson bringing the ball up the court
Wait, they're shooting a FT?
Statistically the corner 3 is a better shot hard as it is to believe.
@BeddieKU23 Yes he can, he just has to work on the making part
IDK, we've lost one game out of 6 so technically we've blown only 1 lead. And we're not blowing this one
Man these guys are pawing all over us, violating us, mutilating us, molesting us, accosting us, but Ochai gives him a touch on the shoulder, Braun does too and it's whistle, whistle, whistle. Of course we might want to guard the arc
I don't get scared til the last minute
These refs are pissing me off big time. So are these big east announcers
St John guy pushed off Harris on that drive. That's a ref calling it like he wants to call it.
Dave should be shooting 2. They've given johnnies shots for nba continuations, so why not there?
@DanR I was too lazy to go back and correct it. I liked it when the city schools like GTown, DePaul, Loyola and St. Johns played in what amounted to oversized HS gyms. DePauls is still standing and they can't draw anyone so they need to go back to playing there.
That looks like a hocky arena. The fans are far from the sidelines.
