Kansas Crimson

No one wants to travel to Lubbock during the week...

KU the only team in the league without back to back home games plays Tech and KSU back to back again.

Someone in charge of conference scheduling is fucking lazy...

What?

TCU is the KEY to who wins/ties

If Tech shoots like they tonight, TCU and ISU may not be able to stop them. We are the key to their path to winning the B12 outright. We beat KSUck and Tech runs the table. We tie for Second with KSUck at 13-5. Tech wins it with 14-4

So can we be honest and say these aren't really "projections", but rather what you hope/we need to happen?

Otherwise I'd have to ask what TT has done negatively since your original post to make you think they'll lose 2 of their last 3? Originally you had TT beating TCU and losing to ISU.

Bummer night as we crashed back to reality. This team is just not very good away from AFH. I think we still have 1-2 losses remaining on our schedule and will probably finish 3rd or 4th in the Big 12. Sad to see the streak end but maybe removing the pressure of it will make next year's team a little more free to play to their potential. If everyone who should come back does come back we have a nice looking squad for next season. We have the record. If the stars align and we manage to extend it, awesome. If not, so be it.

This year's team has just not been able to come together and play like a cohesive team. Watching Tech's defense last night was amazing. They all work together as a cohesive unit to shut people down. We simply do not possess that togetherness, as would be expected from a team that barely gets 2-3 games in a row with the same roster/rotation.

I hope we get a decent draw and make it out of the tourney's first weekend. Anything beyond that would be bonus. I hope all the young guys who return next year gain some valuable experience and I hope Grimes is not so mentally broken that him returning is a negative. I feel bad for the kid that he is struggling so bad and I really hope he finds his way. It would fantastic to see him get to where he likely thought he would already be.

Freshman wet themselves in hostile places. AFH will bring reality.

Playing at home isn't "reality". The tourney isn't played at home.

sorry, but the frosh have played in plenty of intense environs this season

that the game was a tech and was their super bowl, shouldn’t have mattered

Dedric was easily stopped last night. That's was disappointing. Took 8 shots in a must win game. He puts up big numbers, but he's not imposing at all. Brings very little defensively. I'm not sure he can improve his nba stock much by coming back. He is what he is.

We need to add multiple high level recruits/athletes to whatever players end up coming back if we're going to turn into a national title contender over the summer.

Dotson will continue to improve, I love his skill set. Same with Ocahi. Grimes who knows....Garrett has a unique skill set, but he needs to be a on a team where he can be a defensive specialist because he's a liability offensively....I personally think Dok is gone. DMac shows promise. Mitch is what he is, but will continue to improve. SDS will be ineligible for 1 more year.

I'm ready to move on from the KJ and Moore experiment. Big swing and miss.

Self needs to find some shooters and some sort of defensive presence/shot blocker inside...bottom line is we need better players, outside of Dotson and Ochai nobody really excites me. Throw DMac in there too, but he's probably still a year or 2 away from getting his BBIQ to a Landen Lucas level.

Moore is pathetic. Who saw what in that kid?

Snacks is my guess. Chicago connection.

Sherron Collins said he was a mini-Sherron.

Oops. Big Swing and miss.

KenPom projects the following:

KSU 13-5
Tech 13-5
KU 12-6

If there was a team who deserved to have the streak end on them it's this one. Hate to say it. But they don't stack up to our teams of the past. I feel bad for a couple of them, but more than a couple just don't seem to give a shit.

DMac reposting a highlight of him personally from a game we got embarrassed in right after the game made me chuckle.

Is Moore the reason Jacobs decommitted and signed with Depaul?

Jacobs was told to look elsewhere because he was another Charlie Moore.

Man, I'd take another Luinstra over another Moore.
