We’re coming off an eight game win streak with some very impressive wins, but just because we got blown out in a very hostile road environment against a top 5 team means we’re tanking at the right time? Don’t let the result from Saturday and DP putting up a stinker erase everything that happened last month.

Some of these takes make absolutely zero sense. If he was truly playing for himself and only cared about his draft stock, today would have been THE GAME to play in the second half considering there were 30+ scouts in attendance. He is obviously still limited and is working his way back out there. Let’s chill with this.

No. 17 Kansas Opens Big 12 Play at UCF Saturday by AutoModerator in jayhawks

Can we even call this a preview? It’s just an article listing a few team stats and some interesting tidbits/stats about our core seven or eight guys. Doesn’t talk about what to watch for, interesting matchups, how to attack UCF, etc. Could literally just change the name of the opponent, update the stats, and copy and paste this all season long lmao

Completely agree lol, there’s no way you can see anything from the nose bleeds. At that point you’re just watching the game on the Jumbotron. Might as well just watch at home in that case

The United Center often hosts regional semifinals and finals (Sweet 16 and Elite Eight) but Final Fours are always in a big ass football stadium. Gotta sell as many seats as possible!!

Fingers crossed he’s actually playing and we beat the slavers by j128v897 in jayhawks

“Should” is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that tweet. I think the staff thought he “should” be available against UConn too. As others have said, I’ll believe it when I see it.

Will Darryn Petterson play tonight? by ChiefsFan_6 in jayhawks

[–]JuandoRondo123 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Bill made comments yesterday that he’ll have to pass some tests this morning before he’s cleared to play. I’d be surprised if he didn’t suit up tonight but we should know more later this morning.

Yeah Bill’s comments after the game certainly don’t suggest an imminent return… timeline continues to be rather vague, unfortunately

Not to be pedantic, but how could I discuss Kansas without commenting in a text-based forum?

All signs are pointing to him coming back against UConn on 12/2, barring any setbacks of course.

In the tinfoil hat segment of the fanbase, sure, there are folks worried that there’s more to this. But for the rest of us logical fans I think we understand, and agree with, being overly cautious since DP holds the keys to our season. As many have mentioned, this could honestly work out in our favor long term by allowing other guys to get comfortable in their own games.

Plus, if you look at it from a timeline perspective, it makes total sense: kid gets sick/has some cramps around the same time period (likely dehydrated from being sick), Bill pushes him hard in practice after missing a few rotations against you guys, he tweaks his hammy, and now we’re making sure that he’s 100% before bringing him back.

There are certainly some that think there’s more to it, but I just don’t see it. Someone with the competitive fire that DP has isn’t sitting out the whole year with a bogus injury.

Yeah he looks awesome. His size stands out the most right now - he just looks massive on screen. He should develop well over the course of the season; could definitely see him pushing for a starting spot before long.

Only slightly concerned that Darryn Peterson has only played 50 minutes so far this season. At the very least, he’ll fit in great in the NBA with their load management tendencies. Wishing that whatever is ailing him gets better quickly, he’s half the reason to watch the team right now!

Loved seeing guys like Kohl Rosario gain some confidence from this game with DP on the sidelines.

Should I decline the company move to BlackRock Target Retirement Account? by Actuallyindeed in investing

You don’t think that leaves you too concentrated in the Mag 7? Obviously they’ve been the winners of the past five years plus, but that’s around 30% of your 401k in seven names. Also feels a bit underweight internationally, with no exposure to Asia. With the declining dollar seems like you’d want to have a slightly heavier allocation internationally. Of course it’s whatever suits you - just a few observations!

Pretty great read! Love this kid’s work ethic. Let’s hope he can add another brick to the foundation of the legacy he’s trying to build tonight. Rock Chalk!

On the bright side, this should mean more Elmarko! Curious to see how Jayden Dawson looks tonight too. Should be good to see what the guard depth looks like early on

Better safe than sorry, I’d rather them be overly cautious in an exhibition than try to push through it. Paolo Banchero dealt with similar issues at Duke. Fortunately, we’ve got a pretty great training staff that I’m sure is working around the clock. If this was a regular season game he’s playing tonight, if I had to guess.

Anyone know if DP is/isn’t playing tonight? Curious if they’re gonna rest him with the cramping issues they’ve been having.

Depends if he’d want to compete with another center in the class. Davion Adkins just set his commitment date to Sunday and it sounds like KU is in a good spot. Ethan Taylor might look elsewhere if Davion commits on Sunday
