Official Didn't We Already Poke 'Em Thread

Timberlake’s worst shooting night as a Jayhawk?

[jhawks99]

Gran: "That's what we call a hostage dribble."

Guy is a walking sports encyclopedia.

Lol

[jhawks99]

Jank!!!!

[AlOerter]

Timberlake can jump. Wonder what his vertical is?

I wish he could hit 3’s.

He keeps clanking away.

Well, his clanks are consistent.

and so many are short

it’s kinda odd

[KUTradition]

Get Jank in there for Timberlake.

you were saying?

i actually wouldn’t mind seeing Jank get some situational spot minutes

Low hip height

Did we seriously just see a walk on to walk on alley oop?

Yes, yes we did. Good one too.

Bill Self met with reporters after Kansas basketball's win over Oklahoma State.

Edited to add: Only listening to it now, but HCBS shares some info about his approach to DH, that I found very enlightening, and interesting.

Thanks for posting. I love the insight into DH.

[pdub]

And that insight is just one of many reasons Coach Self is the best.
He is a master of speech.
That's exactly what you want to tell your PG who might be under fire for his performance so far this season.

"Hunter has 2,000pts in less than 4 years and still has another season left...he could score 2,700pts.....that'll be something I sell to him after the season"....


Hoping Bidunga didn't hear that.

Who is he under fire from other than the messageboard posters?

He just made the Cousy top 10 for best PG in the country.

You're right that Self is a master of speech....and that comment wasn't directed towards DH. It was directed squarely at our fanbase.

[pdub]

Self literally said he thinks Dajuan should quit listening to 'everybody else'.
So...everybody else.
He wouldn't have mentioned it if it wasn't a thing - it's a thing.

( which is yes, largely the fanbase, whose expectations, which might be unrealistic but that's KUBB, are high, especially this season coming out preseason 1, and then starting B12 play 4-3 with 2 looses to the bottom half of the league )

can Flory put up 20 and 10?

if he’s too proud/entitled to play second-fiddle to a guy Self wants, then fuck him

this isn’t necessarily directed at you, but all these tears being shed over guys that puss out and don’t want to compete is getting tiring. getting recruited over is nothing new

i care more about KANSAS winning, and we seem to do a pretty good job of that with Self at the helm, and with the guys he wants

one other thing to keep in mind…we pretty much know exactly what we’re getting with HD. Flory is a prospect, nothing more. i’ll take the known, AA-level production over freshman potential all day, every day

No, I don't think Flory is a 20 and 10 guy in year 1....and I don't think he plans on staying long enough to turn into a 20 and 10 guy (which is rare anyway).

I agree. Getting recruited over is part of sports. I don't shed tears for the guys who run from the competition at KU, even though I understand why they do.

I'd take HD over anyone in the country for next year probably. He'd likely be the number 1 pick in a fantasy draft.

[randylahey]

Maybe we can have both. Imagine flory being content with nil money to come to Kansas and develop for a year behind dickinson, and take over as starting center as a sophomore

And imagine the change of pace when hunter rests and we bring in just a freakishly athletic high energy back up

It's a beautiful dream...and would show some of his chatacter and desire to win/improve as a player.
