New pod! We recap the beginning of the season for KU including their dominant win over Kentucky in the Champions Classic. Yes, Kansas appears to be back.

Final thots:
1. Tre, when his feet are set, is apparently Glen Rice now.
2. This team seems to be the most cohesive looking KU team since 2022.
3. TKR literally raises the ceiling of this team in a way I didn’t anticipate.
4. Stokes is so fundamentally sound.
5. Kentucky is buns.

I’m not convinced that Self didn’t have him made in a lab. He’s a perfect Bill Self player.
Trey Kaufman-Renn is Perry Ellis on steroids. That old-man-at-the-gym game that nobody can stop. Mix that sort of touch with exceptional basketball intelligence and the best passing you'll ever see from a center... and you have a guy that Bill Self will love with all his heart.

I mean, what is even going on in this picture?
I can’t think of any ref situation that would cause this contact. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Half thots:
1. Kinney has passed the test so far. 6 assists in one half doesn’t suck.
2. TKR and Stokes has to be the most SOLID duo in the country. Smart. Strong. Winners.
3. Don’t sleep on Reeves. Bringing a guy his length and ability off the bench is a blessing.
4. KU should be up 15. #RefShow

No. 15 #KUbball vs. No. 24 Kentucky getting ready to go in Chicago at the Champions Classic!!! Tip off now slated for just before 9 p.m. central.
With Melvin Council Jr. out, Leroy Blyden Jr. gets the first crack at replacing him in the starting lineup...
🔺 Taylen Kinney
🔹 Leroy Blyden Jr.
🔺 Tre White
🔹 Tyran Stokes
🔺 Trey Kaufman-Renn
Things we are watching tonight:
1. How will Kinney react without the Melvin “security blanket.” All of sudden we need a solid, poised point guard.
2. Kansas’s D. KU has the more complete team…but if Momlo-whatever his name is gets open looks and bangs in a few 3’s early? Look out.
3. As always: rebounding.

Final thots:
- 2 games in and one thing we CAN be sure of: KU is deeper than its been in years.
- The season may rest on it staying that way. 😬
- The Stokes/TKR two-man game is going to feed families.
- Tuesday prediction: Hawks by 10.

Halftime thots:
1. Trying to not draw any conclusions. It’s still very early…but the shooting is causing me anxiety. 😆
2. There are guys getting minutes that won’t be soon. (Whispers: His name rhymes with “tall iced tea-a”)
3. Can’t tell if KU is really good at defense or if MTSU is just bad.
