Who will be "The Man?" A poll while we wait . . .

RC A & F

Flawed poll - I vote Perry.

I should have said that Perry was the default "baseline" candidate and the poll is "who instead of Perry. Point taken JR,

RC A & F

Though both teams have had some ugly games since the Triple OT game they are both 'better" as teams than they were then.
The last four games, beating Kentucky and and three double digit Big XII wins, seem to have provided a glimpse of what the Jayhawk finished product may look like in five or six weeks. As in running, cycling or horse racing second place is often the fate of the capable entrant who makes a premature finishing kick. The Texas game may mean OU is rounding into top form a bit later, at this point it might also mean they were just looking ahead?

Both teams played at a high level early which is expected with mature players who have been together a while. In a way the Hawks might have a slightly higher ceiling since Devonte wasn't able to play in Korea and he is only a sophomore.

For tomorrow I look at the improvement we've seen at both ends of the court the last couple weeks. The spacing and effort have improved and the D is starting to look like some of HCBS's better teams. What we didn't see was Wayne having an A game or a B+ game by the high standards we hold him to. The Flu sucks, but with top medical care a guy in his early twenties can improve a lot between Tuesday and Saturday.

For us to win I think it will require and epic afternoon from the player I'd then name " Big Game Wayne."

Thanks for the clarification Bay. I still can't vote, since Perry is the man!

How about Devonte'???

Shows how much we freakin' know- I voted for Wayne!

how much is in the carryover pool?

Landen Lucas will tell us: “All the stuff he did was big-time. He was the man today. He carried the team,” said KU junior forward Landen Lucas, who took a charge from Hield with 1:10 left and KU up, 73-71.

OK, so Landen wasn't the man, but he sure knows who was!!! I had trouble sleeping last night 'cause I was just too excited. Yea BABY!!!

Nice call amigo,

Bad call that happened to go our way- travel maybe but not charge- either way a turnover which seems to be Buddy's one exploitable flaw.
