Rock Chalk!

and I'm not talking Halloween candy.

Not to go all Doyel... but this team has a very long way to go.

Free live streams anywhere? Damn ESPN charges now.

[t_jayhawk]

It’s $5....

[sdoyel]

A month.

[t_jayhawk]

You only need it for two months.

It’s not like you’re missing much anyways.

I'm cancelling ESPN3 as soon as this game is over.

What, only 1-2 more games on Jayhawk TV? I'm good.

[3rdGenJayhawk]

I'm really missing Graham / Mason. Doesn't seem like we have a stable/reliable point guard yet. I don't see any real set up plays, just a lot of trowing the ball down the court as fast a possible. I'd like to see more thought in our game play.

[Mjl]

I'm not worried about a lack of set plays. I'm worried about how they look without set plays. And even more worried about the D

[chiknbut]

Lots and lots of growing pains with this team. Everyone's going to have to be patient.

We're preseason #1. Some teams should require patience. This isn't one of them.

That is partly by design. Self said we're not brining out too much stuff prior to game 1 so that there isn't tape on our stuff.

^^^^^ It isn't how you play in these paid scrimmages. It's how you are practicing that matters.

Am I mistaken or is Ochai a better basketball player than KJ? I haven't seen a single thing KJ does better.
Ochai is gonna be good.

I hope you guys are right.

I suspect that K. J. is better than what we have seen and Ochai is just buried on the depth chart.
