Although many of you have described this team as unwatchable, I, for one, am looking forward to tonight's game, even if it doesn't start until 9pm.



Damn, just noticed we're 15-point overdogs.

At CBS Sports, it went down to 14, and now it's back up to 14.5.

It depends on which team shows up, but after the success we had at UCF and the fact we're back at home, I wouldn't bet against it.

What do you think?

my GTS (if I remember my guess) thinks we cover....albeit not by much.

Is it bad that I wish there was an NFL playoff game to watch at noon instead of my watching KU/KSU?
Probably the least interested I have been in a KU/KSU basketball game in a loooooong time.

careful you guys...if you admit you don't watch the games then certain posters are gonna end up relentlessly antagonizing you for it.


ah, shit, who am I kidding? I won't be watching either. I'm gonna go hang out at this youth hoops tournament where I'll be thrown out for relentlessly antagonizing the ref for blowing some otherwise-not-even-controversial call.

but I might actually catch some of the KU game, depending on what time I get thrown out.

actually, a few years back I was in a rec volleyball league.

Our team and another was just playing a little friendly warmup before the actual match against other teams later.

I went up to spike one, but my t-rex wingspan self caught the net instead.

We were all just goofing around having a good time, so everybody laughed. I exclaimed, "is that net regulation size or WHAT!" Everybody laughed even more...


...except for one random dood, who pulled me aside and lectured me about how while he too is all for having a good time, but if I'm gonna start criticizing the refs, then he thinks I should leave.

I replied, dude, it's a friendly warmup before a rec league volleyball game. There aren't even refs here right now! Everybody laughed except for you, so maybe it's YOU who actually can NOT have a good time cuz you're lecturing random strangers making jokes during a volleyball warmup and taking this waaaaay too seriously, huh?

he then took an ice skate and and tried to stab me with it.

Thankfully we've got something other than our mess of a government to talk about today....


Udeh is going to be fired up. He's exactly the kind of player HD struggles with.

Udeh Fouls Per 40:

Freshman 7.7
Sophomore 4.8
Junior 3.3

Impressive improvement. He's playing 28mpg this season.

We gave up on him too soon. It didn't pay off. We'd have been worse last year without HD, obviously. But we didn't win anything meaningful anyway. It would have changed how a lot of pieces fell.

He's only averaging 8pts and 8rebs. 1.7 blocks. Compared to 1.5 blocks for HD.
