apparently, The Korean "Back Street Boys" will be there.
Players rooms have big beds for Mick and Landon.
@jaybate-1.0 This is the single royal suite which is $17,995 for the extent of the trip.
@brooksmd what is Kimchi?
All of our competition have played under these rules for a long time. These teams are going to make us run on defense. It makes sense to substitute freely. We are going to need the Bigs to haul ass on defense.
I wonder if Coach has consulted with any of the FIBA coaches for advice?
Don't even google Korean cooked dog.
Post game meal for the Jayhawks
The basketball is also .7 inches larger than the NCAA Reg. Basketball.
THIS SEASON IS GOING TO BE SO MUCH FUN!
1 thing that Bill Self yells at his team, "DON'T LET THE BALL STICK!"
An offensive rebound re-sets the clock to 14 seconds!
What an incredible coaching challenge. Also in the article, it said that Canada will be working out in Lawrence and that the two teams could scrimmage against each other. None of the Canadians have played in the U.S.
From KU Sports
“Think about it,” Self added, “you get across halfcourt, even if you push it up, you are at 20. Now you’ve got 20 seconds to get a shot. It’s not going to be a situation where you come down and set it up. Most teams start scrambling to get a shot with 12, 10 seconds on the clock. You get an offensive rebound (clock re-set to 14), you get it out there, by the time they catch it and square up, there’s 12 on the clock. You’ve got to get another shot immediately. It’s totally different, but one (rule) I think will make us play faster. Hopefully we can convince our guys you can be patient and still get the ball to the second and third side before you look to score.”
As far as individuals and how they’ve responded to FIBA rules ... Self said senior Perry Ellis “has been our best player so far. I think he’s ready to have a breakout type year — a player of the year type year
I like a player with luck on his side.
@HighEliteMajor Sometimes you can be eloquent in your explanations. Even when we didn't know that Greene was hurt last year and the percentages started dropping. I really think if Greene had not hurt his hip, Coach would have been more welcoming of your offensive suggestions. The sad news is that Greene didn't tell anyone for a long time. The screens were there for him, but he couldn't even get behind them to shoot. I wish coach hadn't been vocal with his thoughts about the three. I wonder where our conversations would have gone had they just started missing three's without blaming Bill Self for ruining their delicate ego's. Too me, a good shot is any shot that is taken in rhythm. If a play is run properly and a rhythm shot is missed, Self doesn't yank a player. I still think he pulled off last year's success with smoke and mirrors. I respect you a lot, I'm just not on the bandwagon of all or nothing. I want to see progress made from game to game. I want each recruit to turn out as good as the Hype they came in with. Kelly, Yes - Cliff, No. Everyone on this site wants each player to be successful, and it can be upsetting when we see someone like Wayne hit 20 in his first conference game at Texas in his Freshman year and then realize that his knee bothered him for most of his first year. His reverse dunk in the scrimmage last week showed me that he has more hops than we ever saw last year. In all of your criticism of Self, I don't ever remember you asking him for resignation like the other doubter's who don't appreciate how hard it can be to make it to the final four. I too remember when Bill collapsed on the floor when after so many Elite Eights he was finally a Final Four Coach. Then he did it again. Now we expect it. We expect it and we are now very unforgiving.
@elpoyo "Self needs to pull a page from Kerr’s book and instead of trying to force players to play they way he thinks they should play, hone their abilities.
Then let them play the way "they" want to play?"
So, winning in the Elite 8 and 12th Conference Championship would put Self on the hot seat? When did he turn into Ted Owens.
The clock we're using this summer at 24 seconds will change the way we play, and the early non-conference schedule results should be sparkling because of it.
Hall of Fame - I expected him in there at least five years after he won MVP of the NBA Championship. A GREAT MAN, AND A GREAT JAYHAWK. He and Gayle Sayers have represented our school with dignity and honor for 0ver 40 years.
See you at the Olympics! Good job Mr. National Champ!
Upper deck is closed. Seat still available behind the baskets up high. This will be a great crowd for two Basketball game in June.
@Crimsonorblue22 Thanks to you and @RockChalkinTexas for being the guiding maternal influence of all of us over-zealous frat boys on this site.
Haven't seen him yet. Can you imagine if he runs on the court looking like TRob or jamari?
@jaybate-1.0 Thesus in Midsummer's ND. He was very old at the time.
"Now fair Hippolyta, our nuptial hour draws on apace;"
In the weight room more than any other player this off season. His inability to hold his position and fight through screens last season was probably the reason for this.
@Crimsonorblue22 From now on, I will be calling him by his literary nickname you hath bestowed him. Old Vick. I am old enough to say I saw Sir Ralph Richardson perform in that sacred hall.
@approxinfinity Final minutes of the KState court storming game.
He's probably the best rebounder in the country. I'm sure the local authorities will slap his wrist. He might miss a couple of exhibition games. Who was our incoming Freshman that also did the same thing at Walmart before coming to KU? Seemed to have happened 10 to 15 years ago.
What kind of punishment will be meted to the 4th year senior.
@jaybate-1.0 :boom: :dancers: :pouting_cat:
"If only I had listened to HEM and KU in LA"
I saw the story on Bleacher Report. I doesn't seem that the U had anything to do with any of this.
He has a couple of times.

@JayHawkFanToo So, is goal tending legal?
Video of today's practice in front of the campers.
First practice goes well. I didn't realize that the WUG uses a 24 second clock. No wonder the highlights of SVI with the Czech team show him launching threes in transition.
