Would any player for KU start for KSU this year?

[Spaces]

did you see Thomas Robinson hit that jumper and smile at K-State's bench all smug-like.

that really got to me, at the time.

[DQ12]

I think Thomas Robinson would

No doubt about it, imo.  He's a terrific bball player.

i saw it.  and i hated it. 
i was sitting behind the ku bench and during the next timeout, masta seff laid into T-Rob about it and told him to show some class.  then T-Rob acted sorry then they were leaving the timeout and some prickly looking white kid who rides the pine gave T-Rob props for it and T-Rob gave him dap.

Sat down at my PC and found the streaming window from the game up. ESPN would like to "Thank You for Watching."


I spit my coffee all over my brother and raged for a while.

How'd you do that???

[Winters]

You would be incredibly stupid to think KU is going to broomsweep the cats this year.

I'd take tyson taylor

I really like this one.

Teahan, Withey, Releford.

Withey and Releford would both start for K-State.  Maybe even Teahan. 

You are incredibly Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!)

Releford was higher ranked than McGruder coming out of high school and would have started at K-State from day one.  Same with Withey.  Teahan is basically a 6'6 Spradling without the acne and pre-pubescent voice.

so it's rankings that determine playing time at KU?  johnson was higher rated than either of your G's last season, yet hhe rode the pine.

the truth is, neither releford, nor withey (who is terrible), would start at K-State.  there isn't a coach in the country that would start withey over JO or releford over McOERebounds

18 points, 20 rebounds, 7 blocks today.  Has "JO" ever even sniffed that kind of production? 


    

[OregonSmock]

withey wouldn't start at k-state.  he sucks. JO is actually decent.  releford wouldn't start over McOrebounds.  /thread.

Releford is a better player than McGruder, and you'll find that out soon enough.  Withey would easily start at K-State, just like pretty much every other scholarship player on KU's roster.  Thanks for playing.

Man oh man.

PG:  Irving/Rodriguez vs. Taylor/Tharpe  (edge: Kansas)
SG:  Spradling vs. Johnson  (edge: Kansas)
SF:  McGruder/Jones vs. Releford/Teahan (edge: K-State)  - I will give you McGruder >>> Releford for right now
PF:  Samuels/Gipson vs. Robinson/Wesley (edge: Kansas) 
C:  Henriquez vs. Withey (edge: tossup)  - both guys can really contribute defensively and have both shown flashes of brilliance



You guys can hate on Withey all you want, but the truth is that he's got potential to be really good.  The kid was #36 overall in Rivals top 100 for the class of '08 and originally committed to Arizona:  http://rivals.yahoo.com/kansas/basketball/recruiting/player-Jeff-Withey-47100  (offers:  Arizona, Boston College, Gonzaga, Indiana, Kansas, Texas, Syracuse, San Diego, San Diego State [he's from San Diego, CA]).  Henriquez might very well be a better player, but I think Withey will be pretty good once he gets some playing time and develops a little more confidence. 

As for the rest of your roster, it's solid, but as of right now, McGruder is the only guy I could honestly see starting for KU.  Like I said, I'm not sure Releford wouldn't have the same type of numbers and stats at the end of the end day if he had been on a team like K-State for his first two/three years in school.  McGruder is a good player, though, and I expect him to have a good season for K-State this year (even though he played like crap in the exhibition game).

Well, I'd rather have Spradling than Taylor.  Considering they both play point guard it seems like a valid comparison.  I agree with the rest of it, but will just mention that K-State has two of the best three 4's.

TRob's defense is too awful.  Tyshawn Taylor turns the ball over at an insane rate.  Those are the only two talented players on that squad.  None of the others would start, or play.

EJ may have been permitted to pull a Maybank, but that's not starting.

Holy smokes.  This guy has to be a sock.  I mean no one can be this rough ridin' stupid, right?

ya you got me.  i missed the boat on the withey guy,  he is a true baller.  the good news is he will be able to showcase his skills next year when he's not  sharing the floor with the NPOY.  the spotlight will be all his.  he will definitely have every chance to showcase all of the low post moves that he keeps stockpiled in his quiver.

Write it down, Danny will have Withey coached up into the next Bill Walton (or Russell whatever Bill you want) by the start of the next conference season.
