Reports Udoka back to Kansas

[KUhawks34]

Not official but seeing activity Udoka back to Kansas.

Lawson and Dok start. DeSousa (starter minutes), Lightfoot and McCormack

Excellent front court.

Hawks will need to be able to hit the 3 but that frontcourt has to be the best in the country.

 

[toonces11]

Its def a good thing to hear--even though we all kinda expected him back. With so many guys making the ill advised decision to leave early...you never know. I hope Silvio is in play---still don't know what Kansas will have to do with him.

 

[HRTheCard]

It’s official now

 

[KUhawks34]

I guess this makes me a insider with my information

 

[Hawkquake]

The rest of the Big 12 just shit their pants.

 

[KStateFootball82]

The rest of the Big 12 just shit their pants.

Going to be another brutal Big 12 period.

 

[tw3301]

someone teach him to shoot a free throw.

 

[lurkeraspect84]

I knew I'd find a basketball thread on here somewhere.

 

[KisteK]

someone teach him to shoot a free throw.

Wait! If we don't, can we keep him for his senior season?

 

[toonces11]

someone teach him to shoot a free throw.

It would be easier to have him learn to fly.

Bring it....

 

[J. Rambo]

he's going to be such a beast.

 

[KUhawks34]

Bring it....

You don’t have to worry about that

 

[ExitFlagger]

What's his goal for this year? 90% FG?

 

[JimboBBN]

Wow! Huge for KU. Probably the preseason favorites going into next season

 

[FFWhite]

He is a beast. Jayhawks will be very tough to match up with. Impossible to defend without help.

Least shocking news ever. Self could take 12 of us on this board and still win the big 12 title.

 

[huskitt]

With Gilligan getting playing time.

 

[npreston]

Bring it....

Oh, we will. Dont you worry, little buddy. We most certainly will.

That UK KU interior matchup is going to be a battle. KU will have the height advantage but UK will have 4 legit contributors in Travis, Washington, EJ and Richards.

Who all will KU have back in the back court? That could be the difference in the game. The Cats will have Quade and Jemarl Baker back and are bringing in Immanuel Quickley, Ashton Hagans, and Tyler Herro. Keldon Johnson will play some at the 2 but will mostly play 3.

PG: Moore (Cal transfer 12.2 pts/gm) or Dotson (McD)
SG: Grimes (McD)
WG: KJ Lawson (Memphis transfer 12.3 pts/gm) or Garrett (4.1 pts/gm)
Bench: Cunliffe and Ochai Agbaji

So maybe advantage UK there? Grimes is terrific but i would image Quade and Hagans would be better than Moore and Dotson.
Keldon and Lawson could be a battle.

 

[WeAreDePaul]

So KU and KState 2 best teams in the Big12?

WVA just behind at #3?

He will be better than Quade, no idea on Hagans....IMO

I think so.
1. KU
2. KSU
3. WVU
4. TCU

pfft...

 

[lurkeraspect84]

Just thought this was funny.

 

[KisteK]

What doog is trying to say is,

Spoiler: KSU will be 3rd

WVU
KU
KSU

I’d go:

KU - can’t deny the depth and talent
Kstate - will fight KU to the last couple games for the league

WVU - lose Miles and JAvon but still stacked
Texas - they’ll surprise people with a full year of a healthy Andrew Jones which they didn’t have 17-18
TCU - return most their team
ISU - will be back in tourney this year after Lindell announced he’s coming back
Baylor - lose 3-4 leading scorers but gain 2 top notch transfers
Tech - lose a ton but Two words: Chris Beard
Pokes - Still lackluster in Stillwater
OU - no Trae Young and McGusty transferred

I don’t see it with Javon and Miles gone.

 

[Bert Higginbotha]

Washington is gone

He said he is coming back.

 

[npreston]

With the return of Wigginton, I think ISU challenges for 2nd place in the Big 12.

 

[BC_in_06]

Washington is gone

DOH!!!

 

[doogie503]

I don’t see it with Javon and Miles gone.

huggs thinks it's his best team yet, but we'll see....

I know they're gonna be good this year, but I can't remember the last time WVU lost to k-state. Feels like it's been at least 5 or 6 in a row. I guess we owed you guys after you won 3 or 4 in a row against us in football a few years back.

I’m curious how he thinks that losing the two leading scorers. Another year for Ahmad and Kanate, sure, but why else?

Ya we had your number in the hut hut but haven’t lately - I think you guys have 3 in a row on us there. We’ll get you back on the hardwood this year tho I think.

They’ll be right there for sure. Upper half. Just not sure on battling for 2nd.

 

[Matt Laurer]

Round of 32 or 16 exit? @wardhawk @Shawn_Michaels

EL OH EL at DBU fans being excited about this. Clearly, the college game is changing (see Nova offense) yet Bill Self gets giddy about slow, fat 7 footers who can’t guard or shoot the 3 (see DBU/Nova final four game).

 

[npreston]

I don’t know man, that kid can ball. I’d take him on my team any day. They’ll definitely be in the upper half. Top 3 isn’t an unreasonable expectation. Hilton is always a nightmare to play in.

I bet they win a lot more games than they lose.
