Kansas Post Game Thread

Is this the first victory over Kansas or the first victory over Kansas at Kansas?

First over Kansas

 

[ValleyGuy]

That’s an average Kansas team on the floor - but winning at Phog is not easy. Especially when you’re led by two freshman. Awesome

 

[brihman]

First ever win against the Jayhawks. Does this qualify for putting up a banner? 😁

Granted it helped a little to miss Peterson but it’s almost impossible to win at Kansas so this is a great W

 

[TheRealKBuks]

Big time win, Reibe is much better than advertised and already playing like a veteran. Mullins is going to be special. He still has some rust he’s shaking off but I haven’t felt this way about a freshman since Jordan Hawkins made his UConn debut

What incredible Freshmen we have. Mullins could score 20 in his sleep. Reibe is becoming our next Clingan, and might even be farther along than he was at this point. The future is bright and this team at full strength will be scary in March.

First victory period against them.

Can't be more impressed with Reibe. Two A+ games in a row from that kid, in a tough place to play. I'm through the moon with how good he's looked.

And yes on Mullins - he's what this team has been missing.

 

[GiladKatzDeli]

Mullins and Reibe are stars. Silas will be fine. Need JStew to contribute in other ways when he shot isn’t falling. Incredible halftime coaching adjustments by Hurley and Co

 

[CardiacAndre7]

Me thinks Reed Jr. is going to get back to "healthy" and game ready real quickly after watching from the bench what the team can do without him.

You’re weird, man.

 

[Palatine]

Mullins is better than McNeeley and probably our best player. Great win.

That's just wrong. Liam was hurt most of his one season here. You don't have to blow out Liam's candle to make Mullins candle shine brighter. Mullins looks like he may be one on the best freshman we have had. But why piss on McNelley?

 

[Sibeerian]

How about Mullins hitting the two free throws to ice it, in front of the hostile students. Stone cold killer.

 

[ValleyGuy]

I tried to tell you all about Mullins. The dude competes. He’s not some scrawny kid who is going to get pushed around. He’s smart, tough and has moxie. His shots won’t always go in - but he brings a ton to the table.

Everyone has known about Mullins

 

[RuffRuff]

Maybe now people will finally realize we also have one of those freshman to drool over in Braylon Mullins. And also realize his defense is not a concern

His defense was excellent.

 

[Deepster]

Mullins is Jimmy Chitwood.

And it isn’t that I don’t feel we played well, they did a great job with defensive wrinkles on our screens the first half. Looks like we adjusted enough at the half but they took us out more than we played poorly.

 

[BFieldHusky]

Beat Florida next week and we will have 4 road/neutral wins before conference play. All against Top 30 teams. That's how you get a 1 seed.

 

[Hurlees4hed]

Mullins is going to feast on Florida's guards. Can't wait to see it.

 

[3rdbass]

Enjoy Mullins this year. He is gone. He is so smooth. Glad Karaban and Ball stepped up and Reibe played well again. Smith steadied the point guard position in the 2nd half. Demary had an off game. We are going to have the best starting line-up when Reed is back. Great win and first one over Kansas is crazy for a storied program like us. Go UConn!!!!

Cause it’s true.

KU was up 44-38 with 14:02 to go in the game.

They scored 12 points at home over the last 14 minutes of the game.

You've posted this enough times now that I'm pretty sure this isn't trolling and just one of the dumbest opinions possible. Impressive

 

[Shabazzkets]

Braylon will undoubtedly be the subject of this thread. He appeared to be fully engaged and unrestricted. Brought the instant offense that we needed.
As a result, there will be a change in the starting lineup for the upcoming game. Mullins will take over, while Stewart will be replaced.

It is not just the instant offense though. He plays a nice all around game. He was better defensively than I anticipated. Jaylin surrenders penetration whereas Braylon moves his feet. Massive difference.

 

[OceanDoggie]

Shout out to Malachi. Dude played some big minutes when it looked like Silas might have been rattled by the environment. Down 8 he steadied the offense played some great d was scrappy going after the ball.

Toughest kid on the Team, IMO.

 

[slepers]

The team won because of the production of Riebe and Mullins. Reed, Stewart and Ross are now free to earn their place coming off the bench and contributing as they can. But the future is now.

Why do we make these kind of statements, enjoy the damn win.

 

[blkknight1]

Uh, no. Reed healthy is a top-3 center in the country. Reibe is just the Clingan-lite to his Sanogo.

I’ll take that since that combo won us #5

 

[metsfan2323]

That was Mullins' "C" game. Looking forward to the 40 point "A" game.

Mullins was awesome and lived up to the hype i was hearing. That kid is going to score a lot of points in the NBA. The rest of this season he will be a problem for opposing teams. Good luck stopping him when he gets comfortable. Hes the big story but shout out to Reibe who was awesome tonight. Absolutely big time! Stayed out of foul trouble, scored, blocked shots and rebounded against a pretty good frontcourt. I have no worries the rest of the season about the 5 spot once Reed gets healthy. With the emergence of REibe added to the already big expectations of Mullins who appears primed to do something special as a freshmen this team will be terrifying by March. The caveat will be Demery. If he doesnt clean up the poor decisions it could derail this season since Malachi while being a really nice back up is too shot first a guy to lead this team where it can potentially go.
