Kansas Crimson

Aren't going 10-22 or holding an opponent to 32% evidence that we were playing better ball in December?

Rank these PG's:

Elijah Johnson - Naadir Tharpe - Marcus Garrett

EJ
Garrett
Tharpe

Rank these 2/3s next to those guys:

Ben McLemore and Travis Releford
Wayne Selden and Andrew Wiggins
Ochai Agbaji and Haunkey Taunk

Give me that order.
Sorry Wiggs but underclassman Selden holding you down.

I can't imagine we are in the top 25 next week. That streak ends. Will we make the tournament, or are we hoping it's canceled.

I believe we all wondered what it would be like if we had a below average team or if it would ever happen. Well it’s here. We are officially an average, middle of the road basketball team. My hope is this is a one off, wake up moment for everyone in this program.

I wanna see these guys come together, get outta their own heads and start playing ball. I have some faith still, but geez it's being tested.

Bill's offense needs a huge shakeup. And get away from PG's that can't shoot and 2003-era bigs.

I think Bill has enough juice in him that he will want to punk Shaka and Drew over the next 5-10 years after this.

We just need 3 Chi-Os

Did or did not Dickie Vhead say that a judge put something out to where Townsend has been implicated?

He doesn’t know what he’s talking about. A judge in dissent made a comment.

Everyone in the program needs to do some soul searching. EVERYONE. Players and coaches. Something is ajar. This team has regressed to a level none of us has season in the Self era. Och, started out so well. So confident and now has completely lost his way. Braun, went from 30 a night to being nothing but a body. Wilson, so full of promise has hit the ‘freshman’ wall. The players need to have some pride and figure how they want to finish this season and this coaching staff better start finding some answers.

If we are ranking MG as a PG. MG is a good small ball 4. He is the worst "PG" of the Self era by far (because he isn't really a PG).

Chicken and egg, but I wonder how Marcus Garrett would look as a pg if he had teammates to pass it to who aren’t afraid to shoot.

He'd look the same. He doesn't create. He doesn't score off the dribble with any consistency. He is not fast by PG standards.

I don't think our players are scared to shoot.

Well, it doesn’t help that defenses collapse on him cuz they know they can sag on everyone else cuz even if Marcus passes it, no one else is gonna be ready to shoot.

I guess i just don't see this constant hesitation to shoot. I see guys not open enough to shoot because we are doing too much jank ass knock off dribble drive/weave motion with a bunch of guys who can't get around the corner past there man, or i see guys missing wide open shots. I don't see a ton of passing up open shots.

Yeah bricking open looks is a prob.

We went 6-24 from deep.

If we had went 13-24 - a hot night but something we’ve shown we an do - we win.
