Anyone else love the Council dunk, this is a rivalry not arts and crafts 🫡

Merry Christmas friends

Not so fun with the box score!

FGs

Tre White — a shocking 1-3

Melvin Council — a not so shocking 4-13

Elmarko Jackson — a pleasing 4-9

Box score invisibility

Bryson Tiller — did he even play?

Jayden Dawson — I thought in the summer he was an obvious starter. Maybe now losing playing time. He seems brain dead.

FTs

KU — 15-21

UConn — 6-8

That’s a winning formula. What the heck happened??

Starters played too many minutes and we didn’t rebound

@approxinfinity @drgnslayr @nuleafjhawk thats the issue it’s not about academics, tradition, hell id even argue it has much less to do with basketball. It’s about money and only money for most. I bet 90% of our roster would go elsewhere for more money tomorrow. AFH isn’t the problem, I was told by several people the atmosphere was top tier Tuesday evening. One of two things is going on either we aren’t good at evaluating talent and are paying the wrong guys. Or we don’t have NIL to compete with the UConn, Duke, UNC and several others. I’ve gone back and forth with which it is, Most likely a little of both. Let me ask ya’ll outside of the last few seasons, when has Kansas not had hands down the best roster in the conference? How about a top 5-10 roster in the Country? I’m not sure I can remember not having hands down the best team in the conference since its inception before 2024. Id trade our roster all day for Duke or UNC prob Houston or Arizona maybe BYU.

The better team won. misery had a lead for a little while because they dominated the glass. They were able to get 2nd/3rd chance points, frustrate us into playing tight, and keep us from having the ball. But then we remembered how to rebound and it was over.

Remember at half time when I said if we rebound it’s a 20 point game?

Saddest stat of the season so far….. Darryn Peterson has played a grand total of 22 minutes in AFH.

DP played 32 minutes last night and hit some very clutch FTs. Everyone criticizing him should be on here singing his praises. I believe in accountability but also believe in a pat on the behind. Great game DP, let’s keep it going young fella!

Hey we beat Missouri’s A$$ this afternoon

Need to lock the guards in the gym over Christmas break and do nothing but layups and 3s.

Kinda frustrating that Jason Bean may not get a chance in Indy. They are going to sign 44 year Phillip Rivers to play. Seems pretty silly to me, you got a young that could have future or an old guy that is years past his prime

@Tallturd1 can we get a G league big that can rebound?

Rebounding was the issue today our bigs just standing and watching. Played for 45 minutes collectively finished with 12 points and 11 rebounds. Individually that would be fine but as 3 guys that’s an inefficient line imo

We are gonna average letting up 90 plus points in B12 play.

Big travel with no call. Well poopy Saturdays have not been fun here lately

Feel like our bigs don’t do anything 90% of the time.

Guy literally two hand pushes Dawson for that rebound

Elmarko was solid on Tuesday but he had several silly fouls and not so good shots today

@approxinfinity 17 point swing in about 5 minutes of game time is t good. For some reason we can’t play defense with DP on the floor. Looks like another court storming in bound

My god we was up 8 I went and made lunch and we are down 9

Stupid move but you have to touch them for it to be a foul
