Darryn Peterson
-
I like how the announcers said we won in spite of not having Peterson available. I prefer to think we won because of that.
-
FWIW the flu this year is no joke. My stepbrother has it now and totally lost taste and smell and his fever got to 103. And he’s a healthy dude.
-
Hope the rest of the team doesn't come down with it. Would have been interesting to ask Self what precautions are planned to make sure the virus doesn't rip through the rest of the team.

@Gorilla72 Barstool Arizona is the source? They rank up there in credibility with Brittanica, NE Journal of Medicine, and Sports Illustrated of the golden age (1960s-1990s)?
-
I do think “we hoped adrenaline would kick in” is as close as we will ever hear self to calling him soft. Can’t say it because he’s a superstar and we need more of em down the line. But man is he close to using the s word…
-
@mayjay - Just throwing it out there for conversation.
-
Kid was sick. We cant all be Jordan. I just hope he didnt get the rest of the team sick.
-
@benshawks08 I've gotten to the point I'm so tired of hearing IS he playing--- IS he not playing Just roll like when Gene Hackson said before a game MY FIVE is on the floor
If Peterson plays-- He plays- - if not- -- - OH WELL we will roll with what we got. Nuff said
-
@FormerlyStlJhawk Now you have to remember-- different ball-- -different game/player , if we get to hard with Darryn he will just take his ball and go home lmao gotta play nice
-
I honestly have to give Coach Self props on the way he has handled this, he likely isn’t super happy with how it’s been going but he has done great.
-
@kjayhawks2.0 Self is coaching two different teams at the same time. I'm not sure he could've done much more with all that's happened.
-
Lucky for Self Darryn is a super talented good teammate whose health issues hasnt hindered us from being the hottest team in the country over the last 8 games.
Heres a stat for you. DP is averaging .739 points per minute. The highest ppm of any Jayhawk for a complete season: Danny Manning in 88 with .705
-
@approxinfinity emphasis on “complete” lol. Jk. I just mean ends with a title and I’ll be fine!
-
@approxinfinity very hard to compare in limited minutes but it’s pretty obvious DP is very gifted offensively. But he has to want to be just that. Watch the Utah game or the Colorado game and he is just a body out on the floor much of those games. Then watch the BYU first half or the exhibition vs Louisville, then you’re thinking he is the next Kobe. Goes back to the old verbiage of “Hard work beats talent, when talent doesn’t work hard”.
-
Bill on hawk talk said Darryn was sick against Utah. The least surprised I have ever been as he looked terrible that game for the most part.
