KJ loses the ball a lot when he goes to the basket. Everyone seems to give him the "well he can't shoot from the outside, but he's great in transition and when he can get to the basket." I'm just not sure that's true. Seems to get stripped a lot or, considering his great vertical, has difficulty elevating at the basket and often can't finish. He's gets fouled a fair number of times also, but a lot of times he just can't finish. Not at the level you would think for a great athlete. Yep. He is no Charles Smith from the 80’s. 6’3 post who was as good as finisher I have ever seen. Legit 6’3 with well over a 40 vertical. Smith was unbelievable. Had 13 blocks vs Cmu. Great post player at 6’3 who could run out and get blocks on jump shooters. He was crazy good.

Opponents just could not anticipate his ability to jump and would foolishly try to shoot over him.

Smith blocked it back to the shooter, who put it up again... have another sandwich! It was an amazing sequence.

Memories Light the corners of my mind Misty water-colored memories Of the way we were
Can it be that It was all so simple then? Or has time re-written every line? If we had the chance to do it all again Tell me, would we? Could we?

Not to beat a dead horse down memory lane, but my dad and I spent a few holiday seasons going to Hinkle to watch Cards/Bulldogs play before conference season began. This week’s opponents: Ball State vs. Howard and Western Illinois Butler vs. Missouri and Stanford
