I really enjoyed watching the 4-guard lineup that the Cats used for much of the game. Desi seems to have a strong interest in rebounding. I'm pretty LBBIQ but it seemed like the offense was getting much better looks for most of the game.

Desi has a strong interest in making winning plays. He’s been huge for us in so many ways.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

Yeah, i say for him there is no question his motor/desire, just some execution (which will come in due time)

I like how Fran has factoids that he brings up again and again.

Desi also basically c-walked on the court, which was awesome.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

Shame Desi has no outside shot, he’s an athletic freak with an unreal motor.  Probably the toughest SOB we have had in a long time on the court.

He has a Frank-era demeanor and I love it.

Is it too much to call him McGruder-esqe? Like a McGruder who doesn't shoot the ball that well from outside?

It was nice to see cam put that ball through the hoop with some authority last night. He just needs a bit of confidence.

I enjoyed seeing all the dark/phone sandstorm vids on Twitter. This was probably my fave. Got a little anxious to stop the wave and start first pumping, but I'm not hatin'!

https://twitter.com/ksu_FAN/status/1628204027249938433?t=fpCrkZcJNqAhCVfOljXz3w&s=19

They did an amazing job of getting something that looks reasonably cool and the old people will participate in.

Can't believe your fans got peer pressured into dropping the F-KU chant. Hilarious.

Yea he’s got a bright future with his athleticism and measurables if he can put it all together.  Have high hopes for him next year.

Yes, it's way too much because the shooting is what Rod did the best and what Desi does the worst. I'm not sure what you're left with when you have a poor shooting Rodney McGruder. Desi doesn't defend as well as Rod did either.

Desi is not as long and has much more swag but his rebounding and willingness to do the dirty work remind me of Akeem Wright, a great glue guy for Hugs who also could not shoot

This is a different team when Tomlin and Desi are playing aggressively.

Or rebound. Rod was the equivalent of a 5-tool baseball player. Desi is like a utility man with tons of swagger and tenacity. Rod was very stoic. Desi wears his jyc attitude/heart on his sleeve.

The cell phones, the cutting of the lights. Great stuff.

I do NOT like the process of *opposing timeout* into 30 seconds of buildup before sandstorm crescendo.  Fistpumping should be happening within a few seconds of the timeout, IMO.  I think you lose some of it when you take the time between the timeout to get out your cell phone and turn on your flashlight and sway around for half a minute. Just my IMHO.

The Sandstorm craze/noise lasted well into play, right up until a ticky tack foul was called on us during Baylor's first possession after the time out.  If we didn't get that foul called, our fans may have ended Baylor's chances right then and there.
