I actually forgot about him. Was watching Kansas tonight and the announcers were bragging on him. His minutes have increased the last two games to about 21 min/game. Looks like he may end up being a major contributor for them, which is a little surprising.

Could tell he had talent and potential but didn’t seem to be able to use it. Glad to see he’s getting it together. If we run up against them in the tournament hope he stinks it up

I like Shak a lot. He can be a nice piece. Not sure we used him correctly. Was hard for him here because our guards were so small with him and Hubbard on the floor.

Saw he commented on a post on a state post on Instagram.
Thought he was out of eligibility but glad he’s doing well at Kansas

Shaka a good role player for the reasons some in one twitter stated. Secondary ball handler and defender.

I assume Kansas has enough talent around him that his streaky shooting doesn't matter as much and his ball handling, penetration, and defense is valuable. We just needed him to do too much and didn't have the pieces to complement him. Plenty of times he would penetrate and kick it to get somebody an open shot, but that somebody wasn't Hubbard, so it didn't really get us a valuable shot.

So apparently in the postgame press conference, Moore said at his previous school, they didn't have the KUlture like they do at Kansas. That set off the mouth breathers on Twitter and he had to explain what he meant.

What did he say when he explained it?

wild that we have the best "kulture" I have seen in decades this year... sans Moore.

Happy that things are working out for him at Kansas. Anytime athletes buy into the "we" team attitude rather than the "me" attitude, it is awesome. Good for him.

Link to the thread on X....


I get why the statement we don't have a culture would sound ****** to people (I would say you don't get our defense without a good culture) even if I wouldn't bother to pay attention to past transfers, but he comes off as very likeable in those tweets. Not because he praises MSU, but just because he seems appreciative of all his opportunities and that he's getting a lot of value from the schools he plays for too.

Glad he's found a good landing spot because it was really unfortunate that he wasn't a good fit with our other personnel.

Did you read what he was referring to when he said 'culture/kulture'? If you did, then are you confident that the current MSU team is doing those things he mentioned? I dont know how you would know that, short of being someone on the bench.

There is more than 1 way to be a close team and he has enjoyed a process they use at KU, which is different from what MSU does. Neither is right or wrong- they can both get to the same ending.
