Dickinson looks slooowwww.
It's the thing that most leads me to believe we may see him in Lawrence for 2 seasons. He is definitely going to have a reality check as to how fast Self wants things to move.
Morris and McCullar have been excellent and KJ and Harris have been great. Gonna be a fun season and a really good team by the time Big 12 play gets rolling.
Agree completely. Dickinson got by with a lot by virtue of playing in a low-performing Michigan program. KU is a different level altogether, and he is going to have to get stronger and faster to compete.

This team has serious depth.
At least against a Puerto Rican YMCA team.
Better than last year. The team is loaded.

He's been very aggressive with the ball on the perimeter. His dribbling and movement has gotten MUCH better.

I think he looks more athletic. Which is just nuts. He was needing to kind of duck his head while drinking to avoid hitting his head.

I think he's always been slow. But he's crafty, can shoot and has the size to be able to hold his own. Still had 13 and 9 or whatever it was. And he struggled a ton.

Not worried about the offensive end - moreso the defensive end and guarding pick and rolls and getting to rebounds.

Hunter being slow is why he stuck around looking to get paid in college. We knew he's not a great athlete. If he was he wouldn't be here (nba)

It will take awhile for this group to gel, but showing serious team speed. When they tighten up passing and defense - look out!
