Keshon Gilbert out against Kansas State.

[SolterraCyclone]

You definitely don’t want to fall below a 3. There’s a big difference between playing say a Clemson to get to the S16 vs a Missouri

And in the sweet 16, you’d much rather play say a Michigan State in Atlanta vs an Auburn for that first game

 

[cyclone1209]

Our offense is markedly better with first half of the season Keshon Gilbert.

Our offense is objectively worse with second half of the season Keshon. Today we look like a lot better on O. Just my two pennies.

Now what? JFC, this season is off the rails now.

You ok my man?

I'm fine now, thought we'd lose for sure today. I was at the debacle in Ames when we lost to these guys the first time.

I probably overreacted but this would have been a very bad loss if we didn't play well today. Probably would have dropped us a seed line.

As it stands though, very impressive win today. I was this game in Manhattan last year and it's a very difficult place to win so the guys really stepped up today.

Let's hope we get Keshon back for KC, get a 3 seed, and go from there.

They are still a 3 seed. Sitting pretty good

Wisconsin loss at home to Penn State is a really bad loss. That helps solidify us on the 3 line.

Yes indeed! And Wisconsin lost to Penn State today at home. I'm pretty confident we'll be a 3 now unless we do something wild like lose to UCF or Arizona St in KC.

You people are so innocent. I have no idea if it 100% related to the game today, but people just don’t randomly quote lyrics without feeling a connection to what they say.

And then turn off replies, lol

Probably wasn't what most were thinking a couple months ago, but a 3 will be fine. Avoid 1 seeds until the regional final.

I don’t fault your concern. This is the time of year to be overly-invested

It’s bittersweet, but I don’t think being with or without the current Gilbert is that impactful.

The good news is it’s partially because TJ has established a floor via next-man-in team defense

The bad news is that if we’re near our ceiling, not having Gilbert should matter a lot. And we’ll need to be at our ceiling to make the Sweet 16, let alone FF

We didn’t get hammered in Hilton to KSU because of talent issues. Or lose at Ok St. Blown out at KU. IMO it’s because we deviated from our culture and Gilbert (and others) were a big part of that

Is KG a lurker here???

Keyshon back Monday per TJ!!!!!!!

@goclones69 your source is apparently not great

 

[Big_Sill]

I think it’s entirely possible he has been some version of suspended. This take has nothing to do with song lyrics.

Nobody under 28 is

It's also possible that he is sitting out to focus on a figure skating career.

 

[FinalFourCy]

I wouldn’t know if this is anything more than a slight disagreement between being hurt vs being injured, but winning without players generally empowers coaches to get their message across, if such a thing is needed

Okay boomer. Literally Google the lyrics
