    Pretty scary that they're struggling so bad with Rhode Island at the end of the half. I don't think they'll have any troubles closing this game out in the 2nd half, but after a great start you'd think they'd be disciplined enough to maintain their control.

    That's true also.

    This is a young group. I wouldn't be surprised if they came out and lost this game now in the 2nd half.

    Kabongo definitely looks like a keeper.

    Slipped up late in the 2nd half and let Oregon St back in this game. Never recovered in OT.

    ESPN's John Hollinger on J'Covan Brown, who boasts a very impressive PER:

    Courtesy post

    Team has been taking care of business against an unusually weak non-conference schedule. Good win against Temple today.

    Get a real barometer with UNC coming up, we've owned them since coach Barnes got there, don't expect that to continue.

    Clearly building towards next year, this team has a very low ceiling this year, but we shouldn't lose anybody to the NBA for a change.

    Yeah, I'm looking forward to that UNC game to see what we have. This group is pretty young but looks promising. When they get size next year, it'll definitely look better.

    Yuck, hard to win when you shoot 31% and 25% inside the arc.

    Congrats, Longhorns

    He's not overrated but they don't really have anyone else who can get his shot off. Just a young team, it'll help when they get taller and more talented players next season.

    I was at the game. J'covan was like the only one trying to get his shot off, ugh. Forcing wayyy too many shots. Can't blame him because Kansas had some huge size advantage and good defense.
