Liam McNeeley Appreciation Thread

[HCCForever]

What was the nickname Manning got when he led Kansas to a chip. Maybe Liam will earn a similar nickname. I watched the game from a poker room with no sound. Most of the games had broken and it was quiet except for me yelling at the TV especially when Alex went to the line and bricked the front end of the one and one. Man what is up with him.

Danny and The Miracles. That was a special team for Kansas.

There are some similarities. Kansas lost 2 games in Maui and had some issues in the Big 8 but Danny was a senior. This was almost 40 years ago in 1988.

Larry Brown and Danny Manning led the Jayhawks to victory in the 1988 National Championship against Oklahoma, rightfully earning the title "Danny and the Miracles."

Good company.

That was a Flagg-esque performance. Amazing.

Those Montverde Academy players are something else. This is good advertisement for that program. Cooper Flagg, Liam McNeeley, Robert Wright 3rd, Derik Queen, and Asa Newell are kicking arse as freshmen in college.

He really remonds me of Gordon Hawyard.

without that run, Kansas would have gone 57 years between titles until the Chalmers one.

Despite the injury layoff, do we think he could still win BE Frosh of the year?

 

[FlockOfLambs]

May need to find a spot on the wall for this

The thing is it wasn’t like most 40 pt college games where a guy just gets hot and makes a ton of tough shots. He just created a ton of good looks for himself

Normally the rest of our good shooters will not shoot like they did (the stats say they won’t) and Liam won’t need 30+ per game.
