8 Questions After KU's Loss to TCU

Genuine questions to ask after a historic Fieldhouse loss

Leave a comment below if you have an answer or additional question to ask. These are genuine questions I have and shouldn’t be mistaken for hot takes (plz).

1. The sky is not falling, but the schedule is TOUGH.  Should we be happy winning one of two between @Baylor and @Kentucky?

2. The Jayhawks clearly have a problem against long, athletic teams. What's the solution? Or do they just have to hope for a good Tourney draw?

3. KU needs a secondary scorer beyond Gradey Dick. I say this because Dick is a great catch-and-shoot player, but someone beyond Jalen Wilson has to consistently drive to score. Mike Miles said it in his postgame interview, "We knew they only play 7 guys, we have 10.” Who is going to step up? 

4. Related: KU's bench has been exposed in the last two games. Again, the sky may not be falling, but it's a genuine issue. Is there a fix for it? 

5. Related: Is Dajuan Harris healthy? He was moving a bit gingerly out there and wasn't himself. He played 43 minutes against Kansas State and 39 minutes vs. Iowa State the game before. 

6. Related: Can you rely on KJ Adams to avoid foul trouble? 

7. Related: How can you not give a MJ Rice a chance? KU needed someone else to create. It looked like he was part of the gameplan, but his playing time came in the middle of TCU's double-digit run. That's not a quality chance.

8. It's hard to tell on TV, but can someone in the building tell me if the Fieldhouse has been the same this year? Feels a bit off.
