Tyrese "Spiderman" Haliburton

[Hayes30]

Tyrese was the most underrated player in the entire 2018 Recruiting Class and was truly a hidden gem that CSP zeroed in on as soon as he seen him. When everyone else was drooling over Tyler Harris CSP picked TH. After seeing what CSP has done with him im never going to doubt another PG he personally picks out "Tre Jackson". Tyrese will go down as one of the best Cyclones of all time and we can all thank CSP for Tyrese being in Ames.

I’m probably in the minority, but I don’t know if I’m a fan of that nickname for him.

Agree with the comment about trusting Prohm on PG recruits - I can't wait to see Tre Jackson in the Cardinal and Gold.

CF is notoriously bad at giving players nicknames. Is this actually his nickname?

I prefer Tyrese "the missing piece" haliburton.

That nickname is terrible. However, Applebee’s should have a Halliburger soon. I would eat it.

Trying to think of a Cyclone freshman with as high of a basketball IQ and instincts as a freshman, and the name that comes to mind is Fred.

Fran was calling him that during the game, so either CF didn’t come up with it or Fran is an active member on the board.

Shows how much I was paying attention to the broadcast. We were having a family dinner, but did not hear that.

I designed this logo for him, it is brand new, not a major controversial company's logo.

I honestly am just hopefully Fran visits the boards. He’s the best.

They called him the Venus Flytrap I think at one point too.

Wish I could like, agree and everything positive about this post a million times.

There are some nicknames and board sayings like the old "Let me Mayor Coach" that always feel forced and straight up ridiculous. Maybe its just me and maybe I don't "get" modern forum culture but nothing throws off a read like some stupid forced nickname. (sorry to be that guy)

I tried to get Mini Mad going for Connor McCaffery but I don't think it stuck.

I laughed pretty hard at that one.

Haliburton- the defense contractor

 

[cstrunk]

I used to work for Halliburton... So I'm having a lot of fun calling Haliburton "Big Red!"

I'm just re-watching the game and I'm pretty sure Haliburton is the one who noticed the 6th guy for KU and called it to the refs attention. Is it weird that I love a MBB player this much?

We saw it from the balcony. Self was still talking to the ref (I think Eades, IIRC). Tried to pull the player after Tyrese pointed it out to the ref.
