So, if you want to watch live....

I was told Timberlake wouldn't start....

Harris
Timberlake
McCullar
KJ Adams
Dickinson

Hunter with his first FG as a Jayhawk off of KJ Adams assist

KJ Adams for 3 from the 4 spot!

Elmarko Jackson and Arterio Morris first subs off the bench for KU

7-0 KU

Parker Braun enters the game as the next sub.

Hunter appears to be 1-4 from the FG and just struggled on defense moving his feet fouling

Arterio with a deep corner three on his 1st shot then a steal from Juan passed up to Arterio for a powerful slam

12-2 KU

Jamari McDowell enters the game next

Arterio already with 7. Nice drive and finger roll. KU suffocating opponent with defense

Artero is going to be nice

Parker Braun cleaning up a McCullar miss on a fast break. Gets the rebound and his first FG as a Jayhawk

Elmarko for 3 from the corner. First points as a Jayhawk!

Timberlake with a nice steal and a assist on the fast break to McCullar. Followed next play by another steal by McCullar and his slam. Next play Harris deflects ball and another turnover. Back to back to back TOs.

Clemence on the floor. Tips in a miss from Harris for his first points of the game.

Hunter with a missed 3 near the end of the quarter.

25-7 KU after end of 1st quarter.

Sounds like they look really good

Another steal by KU after a block by Clemence. Alley oop to KJ.

Puerto Rico ain't never seen defense like this.

Clemence 0-2 from 3FG.

Hunter struggling a bit on defense and with his shot to fall but looks like Elmarko had a steal and alley oop to Hunter. Will be nice to see if that gets him going. Dickinson has made some turnovers but only due to his willingness to pass to a cutter.

Timberlake with a quick release and his first 3 pt FG as a Jayhawk.

KJ offensive rebound after a Timberlake miss and fouled on a tough shot. And-1.

KJ with 8 points.

KJ is going to be big 12 player of the week!!!

Parker Braun takes a charge. Looks to be very nimble. Good athleticism which is not surprising being Christian's brother.

54-34 KU at the half :thumb:

Was going to live post the entire game but the fencing guy unprompted just delivered some fencing materials. Missed half of the 2nd quarter got damn it!!

Beautiful pass from Hunter Dickinson to KJ cutting to the hoop for an and one. Hunter is a fantastic passer for a big man.

Beautiful touch pass from KJ from the corner to Hunter who sealed his man and an easy lay up. Maybe this KJ and Hunter at the 4 and 5 can work :)

Timberlake is going to be bald by the time he is 29. But maybe he already is 29?

Dickinson drills a spot up 12 footer assist from Juando

Morris is lighting it up. Another 3. Future Star. He is NOT a PG. He's a scorer.

Clemence on next possession makes a 3. I repeat he MADE the 3.

the other team has old broke dicks

Hunter Dickenson hasn't been moving good side of side well all year.

Clemence with ANOTHER 3. Nice to see, shooting them with confidence.

the broadcast talking up clemence i doubt he will ever be anything

Jamari McDowell for 3! Arterio been a little loose with the ball but super talented.

Elmarko hasn't been a big scorer in this game but just drilled a pull up 3. He looks to be the back up PG, not Morris. Morris is the scorer, Elmarko more of a CG.

This team is going to beat the absolute shit out of everyone this year.

A little early season sloppiness, but come March it's Final Four or bust.

Elmarko again for 3. Followed by Timberlake for 3.

Dickinson and McCullar have been underperforming in this one game. But we know what they will be so nobody should be worried. I think the new guys have looked as advertised. And this defense will be swarming. Just wish we had a Udeh back up center, though. Hunter is not a defensive wizard, but with his size he will definitely be serviceable and get better and better with Self coaching him up instead of.....Juwon Howard.

KJ is a poor mans Zion except doesn't get hurt.

100-68 Kansas with 2:30 to go.

Bill Self interview....

Says Clemence will "probably" redshirt...becacuse we said he will redshirt. Seems that is not set in stone.

He was happy with how they played. Said didn't emphasize alot of things they struggled at.

Gushed about KJ and his athleticism. Said they are more athletic than in years past. Says Arterio is really quick twitch.

Said of the NBA players in the upcoming game they should have AT LEAST Buddy Hield, Kai Jones, Deandre Ayton, Mychel Thompson (Klays bro)

I conservatively believe this KU team would beat the ‘95 Bulls

You could put together an all-star team made up of 92-98 Bulls and this KU would obliterate them

what if we give the '23 Jayhawks a handicap. say they are three feet tall. what about then? I think the bulls have a chance then but still eventually fall 102 to 66

I have two pairs of tickets if any of you want to unload some of your life savings to witness the greatness that is the 2023-2024 Kansas Jayhawks in person.

Which games and how much?

I would also be interested in buying some

This KU team could beat 5 Michael Jordan’s stacked on top of 5 LeBron James’s in long trench coats to appear as 1 person each with the butt child of Phil Jackson and Greg Popovich coaching them.

And it’s not particularly close.

Arterio Morris you have my attention

I’m wondering how that Kentucky game is going to play out. KU obviously has the experience edge but Kentucky’s stacked with talent, with a few key vets.

If Arterio and Elmarko can hit the 3 in the high 30 %’s, then we can win it all.

We know Timberlake is one of the best. Having 3 guys who can light it up from deep on the perimeter with everything we know we’ll get from Harris, KJ, McCullar, and Dickinson is huge.

Arn’t they playing what amounts to a DIII school?

They're playing NBA players Saturday so we'll know more then

Let me get the tickets issued to me so they are ready to transfer and then I'll post some prices. Definitely save you third party fees where I get about the same as I would paying third party fees as a seller. But games like UMKC, Manhatten, etc. aren't going to run you guys much more than $25-40 per ticket, honestly and they're decent seats.

I think Saturday has the potential to be a much more competitive game, but who really knows?

did they phonetically spell these names?

Clearly we were attempting to be humorous given some fan's ability to grossly overreact to any and every game.

That said, regardless of who we played yesterday, this team looks super athletic, KJ looks much better as a 4 (we already knew this) plus he has put on at least 10-15lbs. If we can shoot decently, I just don't see how we are not the best team in CBB this year. I think many of us already thought this, but seeing the athleticism yesterday only further supported the thought.

I play golf fairly regularly with one of the assistant coaches and have never really heard him talk this much about a team so early. He's clearly excited by their potential. FWIW, he also expects Klay Thompson and Deandre Ayton to play in one of the games over the weekend. I know that Klay's brother has been mentioned, but he told me that there is a pretty strong possibility that Klay plays too.

Aren't we adding Furphy to this mix soon? A 6-7 shooter is a welcome addition

Believe I saw yesterday that he had officially signed with KU. So I'd guess after this leg of games.

Klay Thompson and Ayton will definitely be a huge challenge. Will be interesting

Yup he reclassified.

Love his upside and getting in here early.

He looks like a big time defender too. I get that highlights only show the good stuff, but I’m surprised how many defensive highlights he has for a perimeter player.

Seems to be a twitchy jumper and instinctive defender.

Can KJ Adams actually shoot this year? That would be a significant development.

I’ve heard the Draymond Green comp a few times. Even being good enough to draw a defender would be huge for Dickinson.

I'm really excited to see this team this year. Going to be a fun year for KU athletics.

Chiefs and KU have the two best QBs in the world (maybe ever)

I'm headed to my first KU football game in a looooooooong time this year.

Yeah and he has zero issue getting up and slamming that shit home. Unlike Svi in that regard.

Christian Braun seems to be the best comp so far

I heard someone refer to him as "Australian Christian Braun" yesterday. LMAO

anyone know how easy or hard it is to get tickets to maui invitational? I'm mulling over a trip to Maui in November.......

Never been but heard it is a giant pain in the ass. The gym only seats about 2,000 people, plus its Hawaii so its on lots of bucket lists.

looks like they will go on-sale next week:

Ok, for those wondering...

I have 2 pair both in section 13, one pair in row 5 and the other pair in row 8.

Looking at what you would pay on stubhub, I could probably let these go for the following prices and help you avoid fees and keep your costs down:

11/1 Fort Hayes State (exhibition)/ $20 each
11/6 NC-Central/ $40 each
11/10 Manhatten/ $60 each
11/28 Eastern Illinois/ $30 each
12/5 UMKC (only one pair left)/ $30 each
12/22 Yale/ $130 each

Let me know if you're interested. I'm probably going to post on facebook as well so my friends can have access as well...

the umkc and one pair of the exhibition are gone already after listing these on facebook...

Arterio starting today

This game is great!

The tickets are just in front of the GA section is that correct...but not in it?

Yeah they are numbered seats

Anyone else's feed jacked up? I'm hearing it but video is Judy showing our announcers.

We’ve got some players
