I think my boy yesefu is ready to blossom. Hes got an explosive gear that nobody else really has.CrimsonNBlue wrote: ↑Sat Oct 15, 2022 10:29 am Gotcha. Gradey's gonna play a ton.
I think only thing that could get in the way of that is if Yesufu turned into all-conference over the summer.
If by blossom you mean the staff giving up on him being a PG over the summer, then we shall see.randylahey wrote: ↑Sat Oct 15, 2022 10:32 amI think my boy yesefu is ready to blossom.

McCormack thought too much and didn't "just play" and thats what we saw from yesefu last year. McCormack eventually got past that. Hopefully yes is comfortable enough at KU now
The head coach of the Kansas Jayhawks said last night that Dick is starting.randylahey wrote: ↑Sat Oct 15, 2022 10:35 amMccullar Harris and Wilson are the 3 locks to start. Feels like we might see some changing pieces around them. Depending on whos playing well in practice and plays well with those 3
With illy gone, randy’s trying to take his place as the king of dumb takes.hasbeen wrote: ↑Sat Oct 15, 2022 10:40 amThe head coach of the Kansas Jayhawks said last night that Dick is starting.randylahey wrote: ↑Sat Oct 15, 2022 10:35 amMccullar Harris and Wilson are the 3 locks to start.

yea Harris gets worn out and needs a break. Part of that is that he's like 95 pounds soaking wet. And part of it is his own limitations...perhaps?CrimsonNBlue wrote: ↑Sat Oct 15, 2022 10:40 amIf by blossom you mean the staff giving up on him being a PG over the summer, then we shall see.randylahey wrote: ↑Sat Oct 15, 2022 10:32 amI think my boy yesefu is ready to blossom.

Pettiford might be the most underrated piece as far as importance goes. If he doesn’t develop into a reliable backup PG, that’s bad for us. Harris gets worn out and needs a break.
McDermott didn't get that memo before the game. Mighta lost to Creighton without those 6 free pointsousdahl wrote: ↑Sat Oct 15, 2022 1:43 pmyea Harris gets worn out and needs a break.

I wonder what Pettiford can bring that Harris does not. A fresh body is worth something in itself. But ideally, we can roll some lead guy out there that forces the D to adjust, rather than double down on the schemes that might have been working enough to prompt Harris to sit in the first place - namely, the sagging on our non-shooter or whatever.
(Part of what made last year's team so good by March was that our backup PG in Remy just couldn't be guarded the same way defenses guarded Dajuan)
What's the word on how much ballhandling/lead duties are expected of Kevin?
will we have more a defined option 1 and option 2 as far as lead role goes, or could we see more situation/matchup specific roles?
I'm not worried about bringing something different off the bench--our personnel is our personnel. Bobby just needs to be playable enough to rest Dajuan.
