    Weekly pokes thread

    Don’t think I’ve ever been more wrong about something than my preseason pokes predictions. Still think it will be interesting if Cunningham actually goes there. He can do nothing but hurt his draft stock at osu.

    Bottom half of the league

    Is absolutely dreadful. This is a league that is usually defined by its depth, but the bottom has dropped out on a lot of programs. K-state, Texas, okie state, isu are just bad teams.

    Ou Baylor

    What do we think? Feels to me like OU matches up well and has the offensive weapons to give the zone problems. Ultimately they’re the far better team and should win this at home, but I think we can keep it close.

    Pokes

    Man I was dead wrong about them. They are atrocious. Can't believe Cunningham is going to waste a year of his life there, and while it may not ultimately hurt it, it's certainly not going to help his draft stock to play in that program.

    Contested midrange shots

    The math on this is simple, these shots should NEVER be attempted. You are hurting your team every single time you attempt them, yet Lon consistently allows guys to jack them up with time left on the shotclock. Doolittle is the biggest offender here, but everyone does it. It's such a simple and...

    Prohm

    His teams seem to consistently lose games they shouldn't. With all of KU's injuries, they probably have the best roster in the league, yet are going to finish middle of the pack.

    Victor Iwuakor

    Doesn't appear to be playing anywhere this season. Anyone have any insight? Is he expected to be good to go for next year?

    If KU wins the league this year, no one is ever going to win

    I’ve been watching basketball for 20+ years, and this is the worst Kansas team I’ve ever seen. The talent just isn’t there. Yes, injuries have factored in, but the product they have out there should not win this league. (And yes, I’m fully aware that Shaka will probably figure out a way to give...

    They should implement a new redshirt rule similar to football

    Let guys play 6 or 7 games and still redshirt. It's just common sense. Let the young guys play a little bit their first year so they feel like their practice work is paying off, but let the guys need to redshirt. It would be huge to be able to have a guy like Odomes back for a 5th year next...

    3 point shooting

    Decent three point shooting has been the biggest thing we've missed since Buddy and Isiah left. Obviously Reaves is a deeadeye shooter, but who else among the recruits we're adding are shooters?

    Uva

    People will write them off after what happened in the tourney last year, but they are legit. Much better offensively this year. It's incredible what Tony Bennett has done, and they're going to break through with a championship sooner than later. They remind me a lot of Villanova with some sneaky...

    Jeff Capel at Pitt

    Doing a nice job with Pitt. That program was a steaming pile of garbage when he took them over, they lost essentially the entire roster, and he has them respectable. He obviously messed up here, but I think he can coach. I know most hate him, but he stayed here when a lot of suitors came...

    Nova

    Doesn’t have a point guard, and it’s bizarre to see. Would be like seeing OU under Riley with a bad quarterback.

    OU vs. Notre Dame

    Tonight in Madison Square Garden. Both teams are 6-1. OU is a 3 point favorite in this one, which is surprising to me. It looks like Vegas has figured out that we are a solid team.

    Zion

    I wish he'd gone to a school other than Dook, but it is fun getting a chance to watch this kid play college basketball. Can't believe it, but he's actually exceeded the hype. He's a great player to go along with the just insane athleticism.
