WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.320 --> 00:00:02.520 So we're gonna talk about Kansas their five and oh 2 00:00:02.680 --> 00:00:04.879 their basketball team is number one in the country and 3 00:00:04.919 --> 00:00:08.679 they have a Goliath showdown here with Duke coming up 4 00:00:08.679 --> 00:00:12.119 this week. But first, Cam, you just told me a 5 00:00:12.160 --> 00:00:16.640 really sad story involving the KU football team, who has 6 00:00:16.879 --> 00:00:21.280 become I believe, the first team, the first team ever 7 00:00:21.480 --> 00:00:24.679 to have a losing record and beat three straight ranked 8 00:00:24.719 --> 00:00:26.199 teams something like that. 9 00:00:26.760 --> 00:00:29.199 Yeah, that's correct. I equate that to the It's the 10 00:00:29.199 --> 00:00:31.920 same thing as my college, Northwood University, going to oh 11 00:00:31.920 --> 00:00:33.840 to six in the Gliac and then winning an award 12 00:00:33.920 --> 00:00:38.079 for community service. But still kind of cool, that is, 13 00:00:37.960 --> 00:00:40.920 it's it's incredible that they're in this spot. But you 14 00:00:41.039 --> 00:00:45.200 mentioned Kansas's punter, who is from Australia. Tell that story. 15 00:00:45.280 --> 00:00:47.759 I didn't know this, So he's from the land down Onnder. 16 00:00:47.799 --> 00:00:50.359 Apparently I came across this earlier on the internet today 17 00:00:50.520 --> 00:00:53.280 out of boredom. And apparently his parents flew over to 18 00:00:53.280 --> 00:00:56.000 watch him play, which is super cool. Well, it turns 19 00:00:56.039 --> 00:01:00.479 out Kansas did not punt once, so that his family 20 00:01:00.520 --> 00:01:03.719 flew across the pond to watch him. I guess hold 21 00:01:03.840 --> 00:01:06.640 I would assume hold field goals. Maybe I think, because 22 00:01:06.680 --> 00:01:10.040 I think that's all he probably did. Or extra points even. 23 00:01:10.040 --> 00:01:13.040 Extra points, yeah, extra points, lots of that. It's it's 24 00:01:13.159 --> 00:01:15.959 kind of It kind of reminds me of when Kansas 25 00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:19.840 basketball had Doake's mom come up here all the way 26 00:01:19.840 --> 00:01:22.799 from Nigeria to watch her son play in a final four, 27 00:01:23.359 --> 00:01:26.719 and uh, well, she she saw him score the first 28 00:01:26.760 --> 00:01:29.200 basket of the game and had to be like, Okay, 29 00:01:29.519 --> 00:01:33.920 Villanova sucks. That probably was in her mind thirty seconds right, 30 00:01:34.239 --> 00:01:37.200 and then while very quickly and suddenly. 31 00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:39.239 Firebomb. 32 00:01:39.599 --> 00:01:41.920 The whole game just went south. 33 00:01:42.040 --> 00:01:44.599 But you know, I hold on. I think the worst 34 00:01:44.599 --> 00:01:46.640 part of that is that she had to watch her son, 35 00:01:46.719 --> 00:01:49.359 who was the slowest big on the court, have to 36 00:01:49.400 --> 00:01:52.000 guard like stretch fours and just watch them make three 37 00:01:52.040 --> 00:01:53.920 after three. It wasn't that they lost, It was that 38 00:01:54.000 --> 00:01:56.599 she had to watch him struggle against that for forty minutes. 39 00:01:56.719 --> 00:01:59.159 Yeah, and it was it was then she probably left thinking, 40 00:01:59.239 --> 00:02:01.680 oh my gosh, my Sun's basketball team is the worst 41 00:02:01.719 --> 00:02:05.159 team that's ever made one of these final fours. And now, 42 00:02:05.519 --> 00:02:09.120 if she is a history buff, she would acknowledge that 43 00:02:09.120 --> 00:02:11.800 that final four didn't actually happen. So it makes sense 44 00:02:11.840 --> 00:02:14.719 correct considering how bad that her opinion of Kansas must 45 00:02:14.719 --> 00:02:16.879 have been through one game. Because Bill Self won his 46 00:02:16.960 --> 00:02:19.759 eight hundred and fifteenth basketball game at Allen Field House. 47 00:02:19.840 --> 00:02:22.199 Wink wink. It was actually his eight hundredth according to 48 00:02:22.240 --> 00:02:24.599 the history books. All Right, where were you the day 49 00:02:24.639 --> 00:02:26.719 Bill Self won his eight hundredth basketball game? 50 00:02:26.800 --> 00:02:29.280 Sir, oh man, I feel like I was in a 51 00:02:29.319 --> 00:02:29.840 living room. 52 00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:31.240 Well that is that. 53 00:02:31.240 --> 00:02:34.000 That's about as exciting as it gets. That is just 54 00:02:34.439 --> 00:02:35.800 every bit as terriffic riveting. 55 00:02:36.400 --> 00:02:38.599 But we're going to talk about that number eight hundred 56 00:02:38.680 --> 00:02:41.199 on what feels like show number eight hundred in my career. 57 00:02:41.240 --> 00:02:44.520 It's not. But I've done the better part of half 58 00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:46.960 of those games, I think, which is just sad and 59 00:02:47.039 --> 00:02:49.520 a lot of it's amazing. That is amazing and sad 60 00:02:49.560 --> 00:02:51.439 at the same time. This is inside the Paint Two 61 00:02:51.479 --> 00:02:53.360 Persons Show today for one more episode. 62 00:02:53.360 --> 00:02:56.439 I'm Ryan Landrath and I'm all two Schools of Paige 63 00:02:56.520 --> 00:02:59.439 Charlie Weiss nineteen million dollars not coach football. 64 00:02:59.039 --> 00:03:01.560 Oh my gosh. That yeah. And then and then one 65 00:03:01.560 --> 00:03:04.199 of those same exact teams was like, hey, let's hire 66 00:03:04.240 --> 00:03:07.000 this less miles. Guys, Surely that won't happen again. 67 00:03:07.960 --> 00:03:11.080 I sent I sent Jeff Long an edible arrangement because 68 00:03:11.080 --> 00:03:13.439 I said something on Twitter once that I was like, yo, 69 00:03:13.520 --> 00:03:15.960 I'll send you an edible arrangement if you hire less miles. 70 00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:18.400 And so I sent him an edible arrangement and then 71 00:03:18.439 --> 00:03:21.000 they wrote about it in the Kansas City Star and 72 00:03:21.039 --> 00:03:23.680 it went viral because Jeff Long called it an edible 73 00:03:23.719 --> 00:03:25.240 and his daughter thought it was hilarious. 74 00:03:25.319 --> 00:03:28.199 That was you that sent that. I remember reading that 75 00:03:28.280 --> 00:03:30.039 story and seeing your name. 76 00:03:30.039 --> 00:03:30.919 This moment in my life. 77 00:03:30.919 --> 00:03:34.919 Wow, well, that's pretty cool because you sent a gift 78 00:03:34.919 --> 00:03:36.400 to a very rich man that did a lot of 79 00:03:36.560 --> 00:03:39.280 very not very good things at the University of Kansas. 80 00:03:39.400 --> 00:03:44.039 Yeah, allegedly, and well as far as the results, which 81 00:03:44.080 --> 00:03:48.240 we have, so yeah, Kansas here, they're they're going to 82 00:03:48.280 --> 00:03:51.520 play duke on on Tuesday night in a game that 83 00:03:52.039 --> 00:03:53.120 has a lot of hoopla. 84 00:03:53.240 --> 00:03:54.719 But first, you know, you got it. It's kind of 85 00:03:54.759 --> 00:03:56.439 like Thanksgiving. If you want to get to the dessert, 86 00:03:56.479 --> 00:03:58.639 you gotta sit through the appetizers. And I guess we're 87 00:03:58.639 --> 00:04:00.520 going to talk about the green bean cas role that 88 00:04:00.719 --> 00:04:04.120 was the UNC Wilmington game land and we'll be back 89 00:04:04.120 --> 00:04:07.479 on the next show. Uh, he is still getting he's 90 00:04:07.520 --> 00:04:09.280 still handling. A couple of things I want to say 91 00:04:09.280 --> 00:04:11.360 off the court. He say off the court makes him sound. 92 00:04:11.319 --> 00:04:12.400 He got a ten days suspend me. 93 00:04:13.000 --> 00:04:15.039 So yeah, let's go go ahead. 94 00:04:16.079 --> 00:04:19.079 Landa got a suspension for you know, ten days approximately 95 00:04:19.120 --> 00:04:22.759 for betting on Iraqi League basketball illegally. Actually that was 96 00:04:22.800 --> 00:04:25.319 me in college. Don't worry about that, folks. Yeah, he'll 97 00:04:25.360 --> 00:04:27.160 be back. I did do that once. 98 00:04:29.240 --> 00:04:32.480 Of course. I remember you betting on foreign league basketball games, 99 00:04:32.480 --> 00:04:34.639 and it's like, do you even have access to it? 100 00:04:34.680 --> 00:04:36.079 You're not watching lives. 101 00:04:36.600 --> 00:04:39.040 That's why I say allegedly, because it was our site 102 00:04:39.160 --> 00:04:41.800 called Bovada, and it might have been for a time 103 00:04:41.839 --> 00:04:43.120 period where it was legal. 104 00:04:43.720 --> 00:04:47.000 That is, it's very very alleged, very very never happened. 105 00:04:47.000 --> 00:04:47.839 But if it did, it did. 106 00:04:48.560 --> 00:04:51.360 Let's talk all about Kansas, and I don't even remember 107 00:04:51.360 --> 00:04:54.079 this was because, like we go, I think it was Wilmington, right, yeah, Wellington, 108 00:04:54.120 --> 00:04:58.800 All right, let's do it, all right, Five games, five wins, 109 00:04:58.879 --> 00:05:03.639 Number one Kansas eighty four U n C. Wilmington sixty six. Kansas. 110 00:05:03.680 --> 00:05:06.279 They are five and zero after a strong open to 111 00:05:06.319 --> 00:05:09.639 the second half, something we hadn't seen so far this year, 112 00:05:09.839 --> 00:05:13.199 a good start after halftime and they built an instrumentable 113 00:05:13.240 --> 00:05:16.959 lead against the Seahawks of Wilmington, Kansas is. If they 114 00:05:17.000 --> 00:05:20.240 beat Duke, they are North Carolina state champions. Considering three 115 00:05:20.279 --> 00:05:23.600 of their six opponents so far have come from North Carolina, 116 00:05:23.639 --> 00:05:25.759 there really aren't a lot of huge storylines here. There 117 00:05:25.839 --> 00:05:28.079 was just a lot of lineup tinkering. That's probably the 118 00:05:28.079 --> 00:05:30.920 biggest takeaway. Bill self still trying to find the right 119 00:05:31.000 --> 00:05:33.240 mix and match. It looks like you're starting to see 120 00:05:33.480 --> 00:05:36.279 a seven man rotation, maybe an eight man rotation at 121 00:05:36.279 --> 00:05:38.199 the forefront, with a couple of other guys that play 122 00:05:38.199 --> 00:05:42.040 on occasion, but overall pretty much a shrug game. They've 123 00:05:42.040 --> 00:05:44.480 had two of those. Now. We thought that they would 124 00:05:44.560 --> 00:05:48.439 handle both of their last two opponents, being Oakland and Wilmington, 125 00:05:48.560 --> 00:05:49.319 and they did just that. 126 00:05:49.439 --> 00:05:53.160 Neither was in doubt. Yeah, pretty simple game. Dwan Harris 127 00:05:53.160 --> 00:05:55.199 played well and I see him get some get some 128 00:05:55.240 --> 00:05:58.759 shots falling if he's Ky's leading scorer with seventeen points 129 00:05:58.800 --> 00:06:01.680 on six of ten shooting. He had two three pointers. 130 00:06:01.720 --> 00:06:04.319 He added six assists and two steals in thirty minutes. 131 00:06:05.399 --> 00:06:07.199 Note here it is the most he scored in game 132 00:06:07.240 --> 00:06:09.399 since his twenty three point out burst against Kentucky and 133 00:06:09.480 --> 00:06:12.759 last year's Champion Classic. Overall, in my opinion, it's one 134 00:06:12.759 --> 00:06:15.319 of those games where we knew Kansas was going to win, 135 00:06:15.839 --> 00:06:18.000 and we saw some different lineups and I think we'll 136 00:06:18.000 --> 00:06:20.079 talk about that in a little bit, but it was fun. 137 00:06:20.120 --> 00:06:21.959 We did see that four guard lineup that we've talked 138 00:06:21.959 --> 00:06:24.199 about a little bit on the show this year, and 139 00:06:24.319 --> 00:06:27.120 it led to some scoring and then it was taking 140 00:06:27.120 --> 00:06:31.759 off the court pretty quickly. Thanks Bill. Yeah, overall, pretty 141 00:06:31.759 --> 00:06:34.000 boring game, Yeah, it was. 142 00:06:34.439 --> 00:06:38.519 Harris was fantastic. It was great to see Dewan Harris play. 143 00:06:38.959 --> 00:06:41.399 I was completely I'm a Paul and in here, I 144 00:06:41.439 --> 00:06:43.360 was completely zero in on the Sunda night football game. 145 00:06:43.360 --> 00:06:44.720 Did you read to one Harris's stats? 146 00:06:45.959 --> 00:06:48.560 I did. Yeah, you're good, Okay, cool. Nick Whifers is 147 00:06:48.600 --> 00:06:49.519 still alive, and well. 148 00:06:49.480 --> 00:06:52.800 As I'm not gonna be like Nick, it's notting to 149 00:06:52.839 --> 00:06:56.680 one scored seventeen points because he was great. And you know, 150 00:06:56.720 --> 00:06:59.240 we saw this, as you said, early in the season 151 00:06:59.319 --> 00:07:01.920 last year and wondered, oh, this is the Dewan Harris 152 00:07:01.920 --> 00:07:04.680 that could score. Maybe it'll stick around. And he didn't 153 00:07:04.720 --> 00:07:06.600 score more than fifteen in the rest of the way 154 00:07:07.000 --> 00:07:08.720 this year. I predict he does not go the rest 155 00:07:08.759 --> 00:07:10.759 of the season without scoring fifteen points in a game. 156 00:07:11.199 --> 00:07:14.079 He looks like he is really comfortable doing what he 157 00:07:14.120 --> 00:07:16.720 does best, which is not taking any shot. I don't 158 00:07:16.720 --> 00:07:18.959 think he's taken a single shot in five games that 159 00:07:19.000 --> 00:07:22.000 has made you go, why is Dewan shooting that? All 160 00:07:22.000 --> 00:07:23.839 of the ones that he takes are so in control. 161 00:07:23.920 --> 00:07:26.319 He's the perfect quarterback for this team, playing really really 162 00:07:26.319 --> 00:07:27.839 good basketball through five games. 163 00:07:28.399 --> 00:07:31.120 Yeah, high quality shots. He all shoots wide open threes 164 00:07:31.319 --> 00:07:34.680 and fortunately he made a couple in this game. And yeah, 165 00:07:34.759 --> 00:07:37.120 I mean overall, he is the senior point guard that 166 00:07:37.160 --> 00:07:38.720 you want on a team that has a lot of 167 00:07:38.720 --> 00:07:40.680 scoring options. He can score when he wants to and 168 00:07:40.720 --> 00:07:42.759 needs to, but it's not his first choice. It's fun 169 00:07:42.800 --> 00:07:43.160 to watch. 170 00:07:44.399 --> 00:07:47.920 As for Kansas shooting the ball, Dewan did make a 171 00:07:47.959 --> 00:07:50.399 couple of threes, but everybody else struggled. Do you take 172 00:07:50.399 --> 00:07:52.759 out Harris and they were barely twenty percent as a 173 00:07:52.800 --> 00:07:56.160 team as a roster six of twenty five. That's twenty 174 00:07:56.160 --> 00:08:00.319 four percent against this UNC Wilmington defense. This is a 175 00:08:00.680 --> 00:08:04.480 team that had played in entirely exclusively track meets through 176 00:08:04.480 --> 00:08:06.040 this point in the year too, they were averaging like 177 00:08:06.079 --> 00:08:09.040 one hundred and eighteen points or something like that, mainly 178 00:08:09.079 --> 00:08:12.120 because they hung one forty on some crappy mount all 179 00:08:12.160 --> 00:08:16.600 of Naia School. But still it was Kansas scored like 180 00:08:16.639 --> 00:08:18.639 twenty two points in the first eight minutes, and we 181 00:08:18.639 --> 00:08:21.279 were expecting a full on track meet. Really never hit 182 00:08:21.360 --> 00:08:23.480 that point. I think they started one for nine and 183 00:08:23.519 --> 00:08:26.959 finished six of twenty five from three against the UNC 184 00:08:27.079 --> 00:08:30.360 Wilmington defense. In five games this year, now Kansas is 185 00:08:30.399 --> 00:08:33.559 outside the top two hundred and thirty threes are in 186 00:08:33.720 --> 00:08:36.600 threes per game, so they're in the bottom third nationally 187 00:08:37.039 --> 00:08:40.919 thirty four percent as a team. Last year, that was 188 00:08:41.039 --> 00:08:43.759 undoubtedly the straw that broke the camel's back. That was 189 00:08:43.879 --> 00:08:47.320 just when it became clear that this team couldn't shoot well. 190 00:08:47.320 --> 00:08:48.960 The riding was on the wall, that they were going 191 00:08:48.960 --> 00:08:51.000 to lose by a lot in their season inning loss, 192 00:08:51.039 --> 00:08:54.080 which they did. Five games. Haven't been as good as 193 00:08:54.080 --> 00:08:56.399 we thought they would be, especially considering how Zeke Mayo 194 00:08:56.480 --> 00:08:58.799 start of the year. Are you concerned or are we 195 00:08:58.879 --> 00:09:01.000 just looking at a very small sample size. 196 00:09:02.000 --> 00:09:03.679 I think it's a little bit of both. Actually, I 197 00:09:03.679 --> 00:09:07.080 mean I wouldn't say concerned, because as far as roster construction, 198 00:09:07.240 --> 00:09:09.919 this is a team that should an emphasis on should 199 00:09:10.000 --> 00:09:12.639 be able to shoot the three. I will say it is. 200 00:09:13.159 --> 00:09:15.159 It is a little surprising to see this slow of 201 00:09:15.200 --> 00:09:17.240 a start, you know, thirty four percent as a team 202 00:09:17.519 --> 00:09:20.399 and being outside the top two hundred three. That's not ideal. 203 00:09:20.440 --> 00:09:22.200 I do think it'll rebound a little bit. Zeke Meo 204 00:09:22.320 --> 00:09:25.120 is going through a shooting slump right now. Dwan Harris 205 00:09:25.159 --> 00:09:26.759 has not made a lot of three pointers. He's not 206 00:09:26.799 --> 00:09:29.080 gonna shoot an granted, but he also has not made 207 00:09:29.080 --> 00:09:32.120 money up to this point. I think it'll I think 208 00:09:32.120 --> 00:09:33.840 it'll even out over the course of the season. It's 209 00:09:33.919 --> 00:09:35.759 kind of the highs and the lows of college basketball. 210 00:09:35.759 --> 00:09:36.279 What do you think? 211 00:09:37.159 --> 00:09:39.559 Yeah, I think that's probably it. I think you're gonna 212 00:09:39.559 --> 00:09:42.360 see them at some point. You're gonna need to see 213 00:09:42.360 --> 00:09:44.879 them put it together. You know, they play a Duke 214 00:09:44.919 --> 00:09:47.279 team that I don't think they're going to have a 215 00:09:47.320 --> 00:09:49.240 ton of success with that. They try to make it 216 00:09:49.279 --> 00:09:53.120 a half court game. Duke's athleticism and ability to drain 217 00:09:53.200 --> 00:09:56.600 the shot clock and use their athletes to have their way. 218 00:09:56.639 --> 00:09:59.200 They have more size. I don't think that's Kansas's game. 219 00:09:59.200 --> 00:10:01.159 I think Kansas is be game against the Blue Devils. 220 00:10:01.159 --> 00:10:03.159 We'll get into the preview later. Is to play fast. 221 00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:05.320 It's to up their transition game. Zeke Mayo is a 222 00:10:05.320 --> 00:10:08.000 perfect catalyst for this. There were several occasions where we 223 00:10:08.120 --> 00:10:10.679 saw him sprint right to the three point line with 224 00:10:10.720 --> 00:10:12.120 the ball in his hands and pull up and shoot 225 00:10:12.200 --> 00:10:14.480 NBA style with twenty seconds up in the shot clog. 226 00:10:14.679 --> 00:10:16.440 That was awesome to see. I want to see a 227 00:10:16.480 --> 00:10:18.960 lot more of that. He hasn't shot the ball as 228 00:10:19.000 --> 00:10:20.679 well in the last couple of weeks as he did 229 00:10:20.679 --> 00:10:22.879 the first week of the season, but that doesn't mean 230 00:10:22.879 --> 00:10:24.799 that I think that they should do any of the 231 00:10:24.840 --> 00:10:28.840 shooting or any less shooting than they're doing. Keep firing 232 00:10:28.879 --> 00:10:31.320 the ball. You have guys on this roster that have 233 00:10:31.440 --> 00:10:34.399 a proven track record. Let it fly and results will 234 00:10:34.440 --> 00:10:36.960 follow until they don't. That's what I'm willing to say. 235 00:10:36.960 --> 00:10:38.960 I'm going to give him through Christmas. If they're still 236 00:10:38.960 --> 00:10:41.759 shooting thirty four percent through Christmas, we might have a problem. 237 00:10:42.039 --> 00:10:44.000 I agree. I also think you know, you think back 238 00:10:44.000 --> 00:10:46.080 to last year. Nick Timberlake obviously had a lot of 239 00:10:46.080 --> 00:10:49.159 success shooting the basketball at his prior school. But you 240 00:10:49.240 --> 00:10:51.720 look at it on a different level. He was there 241 00:10:51.759 --> 00:10:53.480 was a lot of pressure on him to be the 242 00:10:53.559 --> 00:10:56.440 guy to make all the three pointers. He was the shooter. 243 00:10:56.879 --> 00:10:58.799 This year, they don't really have that. There's so many 244 00:10:58.799 --> 00:11:02.720 different players that can threes. I think overall, it's it's 245 00:11:02.720 --> 00:11:05.200 a really small sample size. They will start a hit shots, 246 00:11:05.200 --> 00:11:06.120 hopefully against Duke. 247 00:11:06.960 --> 00:11:09.200 Yeah, and they need to against Duke because that's their 248 00:11:09.279 --> 00:11:11.639 toughest opponent of the non conference slate. I think I 249 00:11:11.639 --> 00:11:15.440 think that is the clearly Kansas's strongest opponent of any 250 00:11:15.480 --> 00:11:17.799 of the teams that they're gonna play in the non con. 251 00:11:17.559 --> 00:11:18.639 Are the du Blue Devils. 252 00:11:18.759 --> 00:11:21.559 They are extremely talented and they have a ton of strengths. 253 00:11:21.559 --> 00:11:24.120 So it'll be interesting to see what Kansas does there. 254 00:11:24.279 --> 00:11:26.799 They're gonna play well against against Duke. It's gonna be 255 00:11:26.840 --> 00:11:29.759 through this guy. Hunter. Dickinson had fifteen and fifteen in 256 00:11:29.840 --> 00:11:32.600 thirty minutes, match his points with his rebounds. He was 257 00:11:32.639 --> 00:11:36.600 seven for eleven from the floor. Predictably, the Seahawks very 258 00:11:36.679 --> 00:11:38.120 unique name by the way, I think they're the only 259 00:11:38.159 --> 00:11:40.879 Seahawks in D one. They had no match for Dickinson. 260 00:11:41.039 --> 00:11:43.159 We figured that would happen. We thought we'd see a 261 00:11:43.200 --> 00:11:45.120 lot of flory, but doom got We really didn't. We 262 00:11:45.200 --> 00:11:47.639 had three quick dunks in eight minutes before rolling his 263 00:11:47.679 --> 00:11:51.320 ankle and exiting in the first half. It looked significantly worse. 264 00:11:51.360 --> 00:11:54.679 From our seats. It looked like a non contact knee 265 00:11:54.720 --> 00:11:56.960 injury when it kind of bends the wrong way, and 266 00:11:57.000 --> 00:11:59.240 it turns out after seeing the replay, he just kind 267 00:11:59.240 --> 00:12:00.720 of rolled the awkwardly. 268 00:12:01.000 --> 00:12:03.399 That makes me cringe so hard whenever I see it, right, 269 00:12:03.480 --> 00:12:06.519 I cannot stand those injuries. I even if it's just 270 00:12:06.559 --> 00:12:09.240 a tweak, it is so disgusting. It's such a visceral 271 00:12:09.279 --> 00:12:10.279 reaction that I get to it. 272 00:12:10.360 --> 00:12:13.919 It looked horrible well, and then there's also the point 273 00:12:13.960 --> 00:12:16.679 where these athletes just bounce right back like it's nothing 274 00:12:16.720 --> 00:12:20.159 like in the Chiefs Panthers game this afternoon, this defensive 275 00:12:20.200 --> 00:12:23.679 lineman for Carolina clearly broke his hand or severely hurt 276 00:12:23.679 --> 00:12:26.320 his wrist or something, and he's like holding it in agony, 277 00:12:26.320 --> 00:12:28.360 and then they take him in the sideline. He's there 278 00:12:28.360 --> 00:12:30.320 for like two plays as they're putting pins in it 279 00:12:30.360 --> 00:12:32.000 and wrapping it up, and he's right back on the 280 00:12:32.000 --> 00:12:36.399 field like the John Madden tough act and nat Field. 281 00:12:37.240 --> 00:12:39.799 It's crazy. I don't know how these athletes. Then you 282 00:12:39.879 --> 00:12:42.360 just see Flory like an hour later smiling like, yeah, man, 283 00:12:42.399 --> 00:12:45.639 I'm good to go. Sel said that he could have returned, 284 00:12:45.840 --> 00:12:49.200 he ultimately did not. They get a week off between games, 285 00:12:49.240 --> 00:12:51.480 and cel said he will not have any restrictions against 286 00:12:51.480 --> 00:12:53.919 the Blue Devils. I think he is a very Yeah, 287 00:12:53.960 --> 00:12:57.000 I think he's a very important player in this duke game. 288 00:12:57.039 --> 00:13:00.159 They're gonna need some athleticism to match dukes, especially in 289 00:13:00.200 --> 00:13:02.320 the front court. So really, not a whole lot to 290 00:13:02.360 --> 00:13:05.960 say about these two guys. They both did. Dickinson was 291 00:13:06.000 --> 00:13:08.600 really good, made his impact whenever he wasn't scoring a 292 00:13:08.639 --> 00:13:11.679 whole lot early on. Still so good that he pads 293 00:13:11.919 --> 00:13:15.200 finds a way to pat his numbers and Bajunga avoiding injury. 294 00:13:15.279 --> 00:13:16.279 That's all you needed to see. 295 00:13:16.799 --> 00:13:19.960 Yeah, Hunter Dickinson good. But Douga also will be good. 296 00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:22.440 Hopefully he'll play more. Another player that we'll talk about 297 00:13:22.440 --> 00:13:25.960 a little bit. David Quoit actually finishes Kansas's second leading score, 298 00:13:26.039 --> 00:13:27.759 putting up his best game of the young season with 299 00:13:27.799 --> 00:13:30.840 thirteen points on four out of seven shooting and cleans 300 00:13:30.840 --> 00:13:34.600 two of four from three, he played twenty minutes. Realistically, 301 00:13:34.639 --> 00:13:36.519 what do you think his role will be going forward? 302 00:13:37.120 --> 00:13:39.320 Well, let's look at their rotation. We've done this a 303 00:13:39.320 --> 00:13:41.000 couple of times. It feels like we do this a 304 00:13:41.000 --> 00:13:44.480 lot of early season shows in these recaps where there's 305 00:13:44.519 --> 00:13:47.039 not a lot to discuss with the actual game. You 306 00:13:47.159 --> 00:13:52.240 got two bigs, you got Mayo, Griffin, you got the one, 307 00:13:52.480 --> 00:13:56.320 you got kJ Those guys are your front six. They're 308 00:13:56.320 --> 00:13:59.200 gonna play a lot you have off the bench. So 309 00:13:59.240 --> 00:14:02.000 the first two guards cards are David Koit and you 310 00:14:02.159 --> 00:14:05.600 have who am I missing? Who's the oh? Aj Store? 311 00:14:05.919 --> 00:14:08.519 Those are your eight. You got eight guys that are 312 00:14:08.799 --> 00:14:11.919 very very very much anchored into this rotation. I think 313 00:14:11.960 --> 00:14:14.399 Cooit is eight out of eight as of right now. 314 00:14:15.080 --> 00:14:18.039 But still he's he's got the experience, he's a good 315 00:14:18.120 --> 00:14:21.399 enough shooter, he's a good enough point guard. He's gonna 316 00:14:21.440 --> 00:14:25.120 get minutes after that it gets interesting. But this is 317 00:14:25.200 --> 00:14:28.559 less about the rotation and more about quit specifically. I 318 00:14:28.600 --> 00:14:33.600 don't think Koit's gonna play more than what Harris, Mayo Griffin, 319 00:14:33.799 --> 00:14:37.720 and maybe Store. So he's probably fifth of your backcourt guys, 320 00:14:38.039 --> 00:14:39.000 maybe he's sixth. 321 00:14:39.720 --> 00:14:43.000 I think he's gonna be like fifteen ish minutes per game, 322 00:14:43.159 --> 00:14:43.759 is my guess. 323 00:14:44.600 --> 00:14:48.399 And I think that's that feels like a fine role, right, 324 00:14:48.480 --> 00:14:49.960 Like you can put him out there, and in this 325 00:14:50.080 --> 00:14:52.679 game he got twenty minutes. He played more because the 326 00:14:52.720 --> 00:14:54.919 ball was going through the basket. He's gonna have games 327 00:14:54.919 --> 00:14:58.759 wherever the shots not falling. Not Charlie Moore wasn't nearly as. 328 00:14:58.840 --> 00:15:02.000 I was gonna say, say a flaming hot take, David Quoit, 329 00:15:02.200 --> 00:15:04.879 is what Charlie Moore was supposed to be. Yeah, that's 330 00:15:04.919 --> 00:15:05.919 a good better team. 331 00:15:06.120 --> 00:15:08.200 Yes, that's a good take. He is. He is Charlie 332 00:15:08.240 --> 00:15:11.519 Moore coming to fruition, uh and on a much better team. Yes, 333 00:15:11.600 --> 00:15:14.120 that helps, like and Charlie Moore's role on that team 334 00:15:14.200 --> 00:15:16.039 was gonna be one of the two or three most 335 00:15:16.080 --> 00:15:20.039 important three point shooters, which makes crazy, yeah, because look 336 00:15:20.080 --> 00:15:23.519 how that ended saying out he was I remember, do 337 00:15:23.559 --> 00:15:26.600 you remember? I remember Charlie Moore making six threes against 338 00:15:26.600 --> 00:15:28.600 South Dakota right before Christmas that year. 339 00:15:28.639 --> 00:15:30.000 The fact you can pull that off the top of 340 00:15:30.000 --> 00:15:32.759 your mind is so crazy. I don't remember that, actually. 341 00:15:32.679 --> 00:15:35.080 No, I remember that vividly, and I'm looking at his 342 00:15:35.159 --> 00:15:39.159 stats that year. He made He shot twenty six percent 343 00:15:39.200 --> 00:15:40.519 on threes at Kansas and. 344 00:15:40.480 --> 00:15:41.480 He only made twenty. 345 00:15:41.960 --> 00:15:43.799 He only made twenty and six of them were in 346 00:15:43.799 --> 00:15:44.120 that game. 347 00:15:44.200 --> 00:15:47.720 Yeah, for context, what was Timberlake last year? Oh? 348 00:15:47.799 --> 00:15:50.120 I think Timberlake made thirty two of one hundred or 349 00:15:50.159 --> 00:15:50.759 something like that. 350 00:15:50.799 --> 00:15:52.440 So that is very comically bad. 351 00:15:53.120 --> 00:15:55.200 Yeah, it's hard to do, especially when you're brought in, 352 00:15:55.240 --> 00:15:58.799 as you said, to be one of the iconic sharpshooters. Yeah, 353 00:15:59.000 --> 00:16:01.840 no Quoite is a is going to be leaned on 354 00:16:02.039 --> 00:16:07.320 to when injuries mount or a first half in Morgantown 355 00:16:07.480 --> 00:16:10.240 is going poor and you need to turn to a 356 00:16:10.279 --> 00:16:12.519 guy off the bench that can go in and score. 357 00:16:12.559 --> 00:16:16.080 I'll always remember Sphe, m kay. Look, in his sophomore year, 358 00:16:16.240 --> 00:16:18.360 there was a game they played at k State. Kansas 359 00:16:18.519 --> 00:16:20.879 was that was their number one overall seed team that 360 00:16:20.919 --> 00:16:24.120 eventually lost to Villanova. Kansas State wasn't good. They didn't 361 00:16:24.159 --> 00:16:27.000 make the NCAA tournament, but Kansas was struggling out there 362 00:16:27.000 --> 00:16:29.360 and self kept trying guys off the bench. He turned 363 00:16:29.399 --> 00:16:31.240 his Spema Kylok, who was at that point just a 364 00:16:31.279 --> 00:16:33.759 sophomore and like his eighth or ninth option, and Sphee 365 00:16:33.799 --> 00:16:36.039 made three threes in the first half out there, and 366 00:16:36.080 --> 00:16:38.559 you after the game, you go, oh, they probably lose 367 00:16:38.600 --> 00:16:40.639 that game if they don't have that depth. Throw Spee 368 00:16:40.679 --> 00:16:42.639 out there. I think you're gonna see Quite in a 369 00:16:42.679 --> 00:16:44.919 similar type role. He's gonna play more than that. But 370 00:16:45.000 --> 00:16:46.799 you have to make sure that you have guys that 371 00:16:46.840 --> 00:16:49.120 you can go on off the bench. If Store isn't 372 00:16:49.200 --> 00:16:52.399 scoring like you think he should, if Ryland Griffin gets 373 00:16:52.399 --> 00:16:55.200 two early fouls, if the one Harris's floater isn't going, 374 00:16:55.399 --> 00:16:57.720 you gotta have someone on that bench that can go 375 00:16:57.840 --> 00:17:00.000 in there and you can rely on them to score. 376 00:17:00.039 --> 00:17:02.320 We're inside and out. I think Quit is one of 377 00:17:02.320 --> 00:17:06.200 their best, most reliable, true off the bench scorers that 378 00:17:06.240 --> 00:17:08.519 they've had in quite some time. He would have been 379 00:17:08.559 --> 00:17:10.160 a pivotal piece last year. 380 00:17:10.559 --> 00:17:12.720 Completely agree. Also, the thing that I love about David 381 00:17:12.759 --> 00:17:14.960 Coit is his attitude. He looks like he wants the 382 00:17:15.000 --> 00:17:17.160 ball when he's out there, but he's also capable of 383 00:17:17.200 --> 00:17:19.759 actually making shots. Unlike Charlie Morrison. When he gets the ball, 384 00:17:19.799 --> 00:17:23.359 you're not terrified about him launching it from the volleyball line. 385 00:17:23.559 --> 00:17:25.400 But yeah, no, really fun to watch. I will be 386 00:17:25.400 --> 00:17:27.000 curious to see how that shapes up in the rest 387 00:17:27.000 --> 00:17:30.200 of the season minutes wise. As we know, Bill self 388 00:17:30.319 --> 00:17:35.279 typically runs eight top players right eight Max. He's definitely 389 00:17:35.279 --> 00:17:37.880 in that spot right now, and then after that we're 390 00:17:37.920 --> 00:17:39.839 looking at our our buddy, Zach Clements. 391 00:17:39.960 --> 00:17:44.160 So yeah, because we just named the eight and then nine, ten, 392 00:17:44.160 --> 00:17:47.640 and eleven in some order, our rakis Passmore, Shack Moore, 393 00:17:47.799 --> 00:17:50.920 and Zach Clemens. We don't think we're gonna see Clemens much. 394 00:17:50.960 --> 00:17:53.160 We don't think we're probably gonna see pass More very 395 00:17:53.240 --> 00:17:56.480 much either. I think that I think that Shack Moore, 396 00:17:57.079 --> 00:18:00.319 that's the wild card. It would it stun you if 397 00:18:00.359 --> 00:18:04.599 Shackmore played more than Quoite this year? Stunned Probably not, 398 00:18:04.759 --> 00:18:07.400 But you're not expecting more is not? Okay? 399 00:18:07.480 --> 00:18:09.400 Then in that case, it's hard to see shack More 400 00:18:09.440 --> 00:18:11.839 getting higher than ninth in the rotation, which kind of 401 00:18:11.880 --> 00:18:13.720
