Personally, I ignore the Howard talk because it's all pretty dumb. He's not bad for a true freshman. Probably even good.

I think you are probably wrong.

He has more interceptions than touchdowns. Throw in total turnovers that he's caused and it starts looking real bad

I don't think his ratio for a true freshman qb on a middle-of-the pack team is that bad.

Lol at getting mad at Will Howard today

He's not extra-shitty, he's just is usual shitty.  Is that what you mean?

I think he means that it's impressive that with his limitations he led the offense to 31 points in 3 quarters.

I think this is definitely a better way to phrase it.  I was just honestly curious how Klieman was going to handle his tournover issues and if he was going to get Ast some more playing time.  If you're going to go with him he should definitely continue to throw the ball.
Fifteen minutes later, when the Kansas locker room opened its doors to the media, the Jayhawks were still crying. Literally, bawling. All of them. I've never seen anything like it, and I've seen devastated college locker rooms -- after losses in the Final Four, the national championship game -- ever

I get the “lots of starters out”, “lost to transfer portal” “covid” etc

But the absolute collapse of the defense is worse than all that.

We’ve seen untalented defense get beat because they can’t make a play. This has been completely different. Absolutely quit/gave up.

TBH who the hell cares if someone quits on D when they've given up 60 points through three quarters

but still, it's all depth and talent

How does someone asses when someone else quits? Why can't it be that they're just shitty? Does the quitting stop and start? Like did they quit against Iowa State, then unquit in the first half against Baylor, only to quit again in the second half while they were leading?

What was the talent difference between last year and this year on defense?

That was a Tibesar-esque performance on defense today.

I think they're missing three starters. The larger issue is what the two deep looks like now as opposed to what it did this summer, then again after the KU game. They lost 3 d lineman and 4 out of the secondary to the portal alone. The injuries and COVID stuff is a lot harder to track, but Joel Klatt mentioned how many players we've had who have missed 2-3 weeks with COVID. I think the initial lack of depth also is relevant when you're having a 5th year linebacker starting his senior day at safety.

It’s basically the same defense but Patton appears to have been our best linebacker by far last year.  Losing Hazelton really hurt.  No doubt our talent is crap but we aren’t exactly stacking our recruiting classes with instant impact studs. The staff not being able to properly manage Will Jones and Tyrone Lewis really sucks.

goolsby was a pretty significant loss IMO. As a whole, so were Reggie Walker and Mittie and Dishon. The DL we have are pretty good players, but I think against Baylor especially you really saw how they needed to be rotating more.

Goolsby was terrible and we played Jonathan Durham significant snaps all last year. Khalid Duke is every bit as good as Reggie Walker and Wiley and Pickle are as good as Mittie and Dishon were.  Klandermen isn’t getting fired so we will get to see if he can adjust in year 2 but year one was a dumpster fire.
