I think this change is just the MOJO we need

Small chance it might have been the same game I was at.. i remember Paul was there and I wanted to get an autograph but my dad told me to leave him alone because he was likely just trying to enjoy a day with his family.

That kinda set in stone for me to not bug famous people for autographs. I sat next to Bill Self at Henry T's one night and we exchanged a hello and that was the extent of our interaction.

I saw Tariq Black, Joel Embiid and Andrew Wiggins at the Oak Park Mall foos court. Didnt bother em either.

How we feeling folks??

I think the thread mojo flipped and home court gives us an ugly win. I want to believe....

I was feeling like it was an easy decision to at least give KU a chance over Auburn/UK, but Kentucky is at least hanging in there now.

It would be great to see something, but keeping expectations low.... the bragging over '2-0' over sub-.500 teams has been pretty sad, tbh.

Never know, could've very well been the same game. I remember it was a perfect afternoon day, sunny and warm. And my buddy and I were kinda like you, wanting to ask Paul for an autograph, but we decided it probably wasn't the right time with him stoic in the stands watching his son pitch.

I think we win this one relatively comfortably (5-10). I don't see how Tech is a top 10 team and we are unranked as if we win we will only have one loss less than them? And we play better at home. We are down on this team but we aren't as bad as we have looked at times.

Samesies. Win in a grinder.

Tech gives up a ton of open mid range shots...well because they coach modern basketball so they don't care.

We on the other hand absolutely love shooting midrange jump shots. It's one thing if you can do it like a handfull or pros can but shooting 30% from 3 is equivalent to shooting 45% from 2 on midrange 2point shots. We are around 41% on the year. So basically we are like a mid 20 pct 3 point chucker every time we put one up.

Appears even in a new season we have KJ Adams (who can’t score) and Zeke Mayo (who doesn’t want to defend?)

Not great

Maybe, just maybe, we might want to guard the 3. 18 of their 24 have come from there.

If you can play 3 “bigs” against the 5-out 3PT shooting team, you gotta do it

Is Bill Self just trolling KU fans with playing Adams alongside Flory and Dickinson?

“Oh you want Flory on the court with Dickinson? Awful lot of grey area in that wish.”

Update: feeling less good after watching them hit 3 after 3 for sure

Zeke is a ****ing idiot

What’s crazy is he pulled Storr presumably because he missed the rebound but puts in the worst rebounder on the team???

Flory gets benched after making a great catch and score, fitting

Oh yeah, i forgot how much not fun this team is to watch.

It's like watching your old dog limp around alotta the time

:(

Pretty sure other teams would respect current Pollard on offense more than current KJ

Toppin is going for 30+

He's s unstoppable apparently

Well, they've guarded the 3 better (or Tech is just missing them), but now Toppin has 15 before haltime.

They’re just missing them a bit more, Tech has gotten every shot they’ve wanted all half (and Toppin is cleaning up those that they miss)

New season starts tomorrow

Why is KJ doubling in the post on a team just raining threes all half on them

I’d wait until after the Houston road blowout loss myself

Chucking 3s or Harris floaters. I can't figure out why we haven't outscored them.

I don't know if the second half is worth sticking around for.

There will be another season after we go 0-1 in the Houston 1 game season

And then on the other end you have the shoot-a-million-threes offense... just riveting stuff.

We’d love it if we were capable of anything like that

Agreed. KJ needs to shoot more.

We know he’ll be open at least

Shooting 4-5 FGs, he should easily have 3-4 times as many attempts.

I'm holding on by the thinnest of strands, please wake the **** up

Signs of life, thank god

Hey! Our own 3 pointer!

Rylan will be back on the bench again shortly I’m sure

Wtf was that rebounding effort by Zeke there

I’ve held off on this comparison all season but I think he’s basically Lagerald Vick and maybe worse?

Garbage 3rd foul call on HD there

It was BS!

I think that's Toppin's 4th

Box score is showing it's his 5th

Edit: And Federico has 4.

Great offensive rebound by Flory.

Grab some pine though kid.

Dickinson injury would be quite the disaster

Great, Dickenson is hurt (wrist, hand, elbow?)

LMAO Zeke

Zeke forgot where he is playing. jfc dude

Diggy

This Tech team is a title contender

Big shots every time we make a run

I like that guy

Self forgot to end the season as soon as we took the lead. Should’ve ended with a win right there.

Yeah it's not insane to imagine them winning it all

Has the guts to take and make a big shot unlike Vick 2.0 at least

JFC take the lead and then do....that

7-0 run by Tech :grr:

Just pull Zeke from the game, he can’t play in crunch time

Is Mayo shaving points?

Now play some D!

GODDAMN KJ

That was ****ing sick

Just really bad defensively and in the clutch/on the road, has been all year

I’d play Diggy over him here in the last 2 minutes

Heck of an assist by Harris also.

We're ****ing back!! PBJ




(well, that was cool, anyway)

Adams with 23pts 11 rebounds

I guess the box score was wrong, Toppin back in with 4 fouls. oops there's his 5th

KJ out of his mind today

KJ can actually help when he rebounds

They make their big shots, have all game

What the **** was that

Nice urgency Harris, and then throw it away.

And there’s our late game execution in comparison, no clue what Harris is doing

Seems the new season is same as the old

Harris career summed up in one play.

Same Harris from the Houston game

The last 40 seconds have been a complete disaster

Congratulations, morons. You've even found a way to neuter the AFH home field advantage.

Not even ranked once everyone else could start paying players lol

What a brutal call LMAO

Absolute disgrace

That’s a bad call.

Can’t even get a chance for Mayo to miss the game tying 3.

So much for home cooking. Jesus
