The Cyclones and Jayhawks tip off at 11:00 a.m. inside Hilton Coliseum. The game will be carried on ESPN. I’ll have the periodic court-side updates for you in the thread below.

Hope this works.

Tamin's 4 turnovers came at a terrible time but our 3 super senior's had 4,4,3.

That whip pass for the dunk. Like a QB fitting it into a tiny window and for him to be able to catch it cleanly and dunk. Play of the year so far.

Any thoughts on why ISU moved the renewal deadline up a Month? I personally don't like it.

Safety pledge Davis digs deeper into Wednesday decision

The latest:

I am late in getting my ticket for the UNI match. Their ticket office hours suck so thought I would bite the bullet and pay the $5 "handling" charge for on line ordering.

To my surprise the ticket price is $28. Every ticket is Gen. Admission. So a total of $33. I know Schwab pretty well. I just emailed him telling him I hoped Harris was giving him a commission on every ticket sold as his program is responsible for selling out the MacLeod Center.

And some of my UNI friends bitch about the FB ticket prices when they play in Ames!!!

I’ve had it “penciled in” that we lose in Morgantown. I feel like if we can steal a win there, it somewhat negates one of our road losses to Okie State and Tech.

Sounding like an Amazon deal offer for the remaining Pac schools that comes to $25 million per year. There is no extra for expansion. And Oregon and Washington want a bigger share than the rest (aka Texas and Oklahoma). Schools will have to sign a 7 year GOR to get the deal, and that's not going to happen. This is a soap opera in the making, and two schools trying to dictate to the rest that "we are worth more" than you. And that is probably the case, but I sure don't want them in the conference dictating things.

Seems Royce is a targeted man now... See text box in attached file...

Are there any good teams in NCAA division 1 this year?

WOI…

KCCI…

WHO…

Bonus - KC Star

New coach, same team full of aholes. Eff that whole school.

Not a fan of the cheer, and even less when I heard his folks were in the 1st row. I suppose he's heard it before.

If a couple of games go the right way this week, it could put us back in a tie for first and create bit of separation from a couple of teams.

A 2-0 week is very possible. At Huggieville will be tough, but if we can end the trend of letting road games get away from us, a W is certainly doable. Then the Cowpokes come to town and we owe them for the reason stated in the previous sentence.

Elsewhere:

Texa$$ travels to Lawrence tomorrow night. Rock Chalk bitches! And yes, I puke in my mouth as I say that, but the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

Tuesday is apparently National Purple Day as TCU is at KSU. Would like to see the Frogs pull this one out somehow. Miles and Lampkin both banged up. I lean toward the Frogs because I think we will get the season sweep over them later but that upcoming game at Bramlage will be tough.

Wednesday I think the Pokes and Baylor win about as easily as you can in this league.

Saturday looks like this:

WVU @ Texa$$
KU @ OU
Bay @ TCU
OSU @ ISU
KSU at TT

Wins out of TCU and Tech would be really nice here.

My wish list puts Iowa State and Texa$$ tied for first at the end of the week, KU and TCU a game behind, Baylor down two and KSt and OSU 3 back.

Anybody prefer other scenarios?

It would appear that Jazz took 100% of his minutes, as Watson did not see the floor today.

I know we are playing for a lot. We know Jazz has the experience. But I would hate to see Watson get relegated to a zero minute guy. I like the kid and love his enthusiasm and of course his athleticism, which is off the charts.

I hope we can find SOME court time for him. Not at the expense of winning games....but I don't think he is a negative at all when he is out there. Heck, in 11 minutes today, Jazz shot 0-3 from the field, had 0 rebounds, and 4 personal fouls. We could not have gotten much less from anyone in that spot.

Having said that....we need Jazz. I love Jazz and I am sure he will return to form. I just hope Watson is not relegated totally.
