Without Naz no energy whatsoever. It is going to be a long season now with 6 players

We were pretty similar in a couple of games this year. When Naz played.

Energy was the same. Have you seen the last however many games we were down. This was just a different result. Naz was struggling. 29% from 3. Maybe a difference tonight, maybe not.

Not sure what you are talking about. This is the exact same team as last year. Think we are better than everyone and can always come back.

Full meltdown mode. It was one game. UNI shot lights out. Sure some were open, but most were contested. We will survive.

Had Naz not had to sit out, Thomas would have played less. He was the worst guy on the court tonight. Where is the "Matt Thomas Fan Club" tonight?

I'd argue we played better tonight than we did against Iowa. The difference is that UNI is better coached and didn't shrivel up into the fetal position in the 2nd half.

Well of course it is a different team without Naz. Definitely don't agree with your idea that there is no energy. Team played tough, inside. Our shots weren't falling from deep and UNI shot lights out for the most part.

Reminds me of when KU got all pissy when we used to chuck threes all game and beat them. Congrats on the win to UNI. They played a great game. Hope they end up as a quality loss.

Bigger problem is that Hoiberg never taught this team defense. Prohm is trying to instill that, but it's tough to learn after not focusing on it ever. It hurt us last year, hopefully won't hurt us when it matters this year.
