Pomeroy is smarter than me but I would put this team below 2007, 2011 (which should arguably be second behind 2008) and 2017 as well. What this team has for defense, those teams had in 3 point shooting. I did see something about this team's defense being one of the best that his model has seen (I think that is overblown but this team is pretty solid on that end of the court).

That 2016 would’ve won it all of they didn’t choke away that 10 point lead to Villanova (who was also very good).

That team was so deep.

Mason
Graham
Selden
Ellis
Lucas

Bench:
Greene
Svi
Vick
Mickelson
Traylor
Bragg
Diallo
Coleby

Very underrated Self team

I wouldn’t rank 2011 all that high. The Morris Twins were sensational and T Rob was a beast off the bench, but the guard play was nothing special.

Tyshawn was probably the best guard that year, and he still was very inconsistent at the time with a lot of turnovers. Selby was disappointing after his injury. Morningstar and Reed were nice role players, but not stars.

I’d put 2007, 2008, 2010, 2016, and 2017 ahead of that one for sure.

When I watch, it doesn’t seem like a truly dominant, smothering defense, but they’re holding everyone to 50 points.

My thoughts as we enter conference play:

1. The Masonification of Dotson is happening every week, more and more. He's finishing around the basket on drives so much more consistently. It's really, really fun to watch. Hard to believe he's a sophomore. If he leaves for the NBA, so be it, but he'll be POY if he comes back.

2. I was really worried about Enaruna when we were in exhibition games, but he's fast becoming a devastating off ball defender. He's just so long that passing lanes disappear. He still has decision making issues, but I'm really happy with his development.

3. Udoka is just feasting.

4. Ochai, Garrett, Moss, and Braun are where this team is really elevating. The bigs are athletic, strong, and Dotson controls the game, but this rotation of guards is what is separating us. I really am shocked by Braun. He plays like a senior sometimes. Just have total confidence in him making the right choice 90% of the time. Garrett has become an actual offensive weapon, and when Moss is on, it's like having Tyrell Reed back out there in the corner. Loving this team so far.

They're also playing like a team. It's unselfish and supportive, and there doesn't seem to be a lot of ego running around. They are just playing like a whole organism. I'm really digging the style of play right now. It's not as flashy as year's past, but it seems much, much harder to poke holes in our game.

Braun has to be the most pleasant surprise so far. I figured he would be good, but not this early.

He reminds me of Svi as a sophomore. Always making the right play and a dangerous deep threat off the bench. He’s going to be a special player for us.

These days? You mean this year? ISU beat us twice out of three times last season. Which makes this blowout win at their place that much more enjoyable to me.

I really like what this kid is doing. I didn't expect that he would play like an upperclassman. He's very solid and makes plays when he needs to.

That McCormack dunk looks crazy in slow motion:

https://mobile.twitter.com/KUHoops/s...09357358051328

Shades of the T Rob alley oop from Tyshawn in 2012 against Baylor. Best dunk I’ve ever seen live for sure. That place went crazy.

why the hell is ESPN making it so hard to watch these game? I went to bdubs here in St. Joe last night and they couldn't even get it. Really frustrating. I guess I could pay for espn+ and cast it to my tv, but why make it so damn difficult?

Still my 2 favorites were Milt Newton over the top of Quinn Snyder and Julian Wright dunk over the Missouri player. Mind you I didn't see the Wright dunk live courtside but these are my 2 favorite Jayhawks ever.



Milts dunk isn't on youtube but he along with Julian were the best to wear the uni dunkwise

It isn't hard. It's actually really, really easy, and cheap. $5/month. Every streaming device has it available as an App.
