“I think we’re better offensively obviously when we played the five guards,” Self said. “We’re probably better defensively too, to be honest with you, because our switches are much better and their ball-screen offense was totally ineffective because we were switching everything.”
I don’t need any fancy statistics, anyone who watches the games can see what is obvious......we are a better team without McCormick on the floor, so far. [Reply]

Did he hire an assistant coach to coach defense starting like 3 or 4 years ago? Fran Mccaffrey at Iowa could use some defensive help. He has no fucking idea how to coach defense. [Reply]
Reminder the ESPN+ games start tonight. They must have re-added the Washburn game to the schedule because I show it is tonight and it wasn't there before. $5.99 a month. I think the game on Saturday vs N Dakota State is on ESPN+ too [Reply]

WTH? Exhibition is usually before the real games begin? After watching KU already play Gonzaga and Kentucky, Washburn will be a snoozefest. I doubt I'll bother to watch. [Reply]

I'll watch if I finish work in time. Not like there's anything else on in a pandemic and who knows how many KU games we'll even get this year.
McCormack will likely dominate, though, and make it seem like he's back on track when he really won't be. [Reply]

Looks like it will count as a regular season game for KU (exhibition for Washburn).

I assumed it would just count as a regular season game this year since so many teams probably dropped out, no?
But yeah like KCConnection said, I expect McCormack to feast in this game. Meaningless games against the little sisters of the poor he will dominate. [Reply]
I don't mind paying the few buck a month for ESPN+ but good lord they make logging in a mess.
When I originally signed up it used my fingerprint to login (I didn't create password). Now when I try to login that's not an option and my usual ESPN login doesn't work. I switched to my phone and that wants a Google login, which does work. But then I try to login to read an article on the website and there is no Google login option and nothing works. [Reply]
