Hadn't seen this, pretty interesting to see Logan Brown as number 1 for us and a possible 1st or 2nd round pick. I guess he is NFL bound if this is accurate.

I've been concerned all off season with how much better KJ and HD could get playing together. I've always loved KJ as a player but didn't really care for how we performed with those two playing together in the paint last year. It's still early but I think to the credit of those two they have shown improvement playing together on both ends. The additions to the team have obviously been a big help too but a lot of credit to those two for playing better as a front court tandem so far.

Now for KJ as a player individually, WOW! Despite his limitations with length for a post player and not being a good shooter he keeps ascending all the time. He's a smart player who clearly works his ass off, knows his strengths and has learned how to be dominant in the areas he's good at while improving the areas he hasn't always been good at. The way we are using him this year and the amount of skill he's showing to go along with his athletic ability has been fun to watch. Hope he keeps it up because he might find a role somewhere professionally if he keeps playing like this..

Jk, feel free to delete this if this kind of conjecture isn’t what you want on the board.

That said, who do you all feel are the real threats to enter the portal this offseason?

No inside info, but my biggest worries would be:

JD: prob wants a chance to win and make $ in his last year

the Desert Edge kids: primary recruiter left, none of them had the impact I’m sure they were hoping for

starting OL: our OL was really good this year and I’m sure big dollar schools noticed. Equally concerned Brown and Foster may go league

Dunn, Herold, and/or Withers: (DL are always in demand.)

A few guys showed some real promise. And some other guys who didn’t see the field but have tools:

Jalen Todd
Taylor Davis
Blake Herold
Sevion Morrison
Kamara
Warner
Doug Emilien
Calvin Clement
Bai Jobe
Dean Miller

I need to go back and look, but any thoughts from those that have seen it several times?

Have some friends who are 100% convinced that Ryan Day will be fired for losing 4 in a row to Michigan. The rivalry means that much to tOSU. I maintain you can't fire a 10-win coach who has your team in the CFB playoff. Am I nuts? Do you think he gets the axe?

spots are available without KU losing any players to the portal.

In 1980 we went into the final game against MU 4-4-2 with expectations of a Peach Bowl should we win

We were attractive to the Peach Bowl as we were lead by a star running back - Kerwin Bell.

Prior to the last game against Mizzou, we beat CU 42-3.

We were blown out our last game by MIZZOU 31 to 6 and missed the bowl

Sounds eerily familiar

Would there be interest in Rich Wright from NW Missouri State?

It's impossible to pick the greatest disaster caused by Moron Joe and his stupid supporters as there are SO many--- Afghanistan, Bidenflation, Covid failure, mandates failure, Ukraine, Russia/Iran/China/North Korea on the move, American military weakened, poor economy, savings disappearing, etc., but Moron Joe's border disaster has to be right up there at the top.

Every day Fentanyl kingpin Biden murders more innocent young Americans while Stupid Biden Voters ignore the carnage.

Will Howard was miserable, Golden Girl melted down in 7-degree weather, and A&M’s offense looked like Iowa.

On making a decision on his future:

"Well for one, I wanted to be able to wait until the season is over for me to even be able to think about such a thing like that because next year is a big part of my future.

Big part of being able to develop, to be able to get to where I want to be able to get to next year. So now that the season is over, it's definitely going to be something I'll have to think about."

Save your money!

The Jayhawks season comes to an end with a 5-7 record. After a slow start they showed promise with three straight wins over ranked opponents.

But the winless record continues in Waco.

Here are some quick takeaways after thew game.



#1: Did the team leave everything on the field in the last four games?

I said this on the podcast and one thing that was a concern is they got up for four games in a row and played with high emotion. Even the loss to Kansas State the team was ready to play followed by the wins over Iowa State, BYU and Colorado.

I don’t know if I can say they came out flat. But after falling behind I felt like some energy was gone. Once Baylor took control it just felt like the winds were out of the sails.



#2: Unfortunately, the turnovers came back at the wrong time

KU is going to put up 500 yards offense and should have more points on the board. But there is no way you are beating Baylor turning it over three times.

Baylor is scoring on everybody, and you can’t have empty possessions. They missed a field goal, turned it over three times and Baylor stuffed Neal on fourth down. That’s five possessions with nothing. That won’t beat Baylor.



#3: The defense had no answer for Baylor’s defense



They held BYU down and limited Colorado because the offense owned the time of possession. But in Waco on Saturday, it was a bad performance by the defense.

Baylor pushed them around in the pass and run game. It was a poor tackling effort on many levels and KU defenders had their hands on their hips in the early part of the fourth quarter.

Baylor cracked the 600-yard mark in the final series with 603 yards total offense.



#4: Last game for 30 seniors

It wasn’t the ending everyone was looking for a group that build the program for Lance Leipold. Many were in the program when he arrived and helped change the culture.

It was a pleasure to be part of players like Devin Neal’s recruiting and KU career.

No matter what you feel after the loss these guys helped change the culture.



#5: Time to start thinking about the future

Now things will get interesting. At least for fans who follow the program. There could be some decision from Leipold on coaches and players will make decisions for their future.

The transfer portal opens in less than two weeks. The staff has a board and knows the positions they are going after. Then you have to wait and see who could enter from KU.

On the coaching side, Leipold will have some decisions to make. He will not sit by and watch the status quo happen in my opinion but I don’t know that for sure.
