“With kindest regards to Dr. Forrest C. Allen, the father of basketball coaching, from the father of the game.”
1936 inscription on the portrait of Dr. Naismith, displayed above Phog Allen's office desk at KU.
All 12 of them! (Jaguar) 
There's not much to say that you didn't see for yourself. KU was unstoppable in all facets, albeit against a lower-tier opponent.
I loved the flow, the spacing, the outside shooting (!), the inside dominance, the rebounding, and the defense.
Wish we could lace 'em up against Duke now, because it's obvious the difference another week of practicing and gelling (and adding in Moss) makes.
Good to see Braun get rolling too.
This team has a lot of talent and options, even with Wilson out.
Onward and upward! (And already looking forward to playing Sparty in a couple weeks!)

Monmouth was completely over matched. I thought it was funny when the Jayhawks forced a switch and the Monmouth point guard was trying to stop Dok in the paint. It was not going to happen. I think we still have a long way to go as far as really running the sets correctly. We need to get the timing right so the person trying to feed the post is looking at the same time the post player is set to receive the pass. Hopefully we can continue to shoot from the outside well as if we can thenit opens up the inside. I hope Silvio can get comfortable on the floor.

Fun game, but hard to take much away from that when playing such an overmatched team.
One disappointment was Dotson's passing. He's looking like a sub par assist guy. He either forces a layup, or lobs where no one can get it. It's easy to get assists in a game like this, but against Duke or others, he needs to step up and get the ball where guys can catch and shoot.

I am not sure why it would not let me edit my post. I wanted to fix my typo and add that I thought big Dave was fantastic in that game. Also Silvio going 1 for 1 from 3 gives me hope that he can hit that shot. I would not want him taking a lot of 3s but if he can make the other team guard him out there then it really changes things.
