LAWRENCE, Kan. Cameron Borthwick-Jackson Jersey . -- The answer Kansas coach Bill Self provided when asked what was wrong with the play of his big men in the No. 5 ranked Jayhawks latest win was simplistic, yet complete.Everything, Self replied.He did not need to elaborate on details. The box score revealed enough.Starting forwards Landen Lucas and Carlton Bragg combined with backups Dwight Coleby and Udoka Azubuike to post five points, eight rebounds, two assists and three turnovers on Nov. 22 as Kansas beat Georgia 65-54 in the championship game of the CBE Hall of Fame Classic.The need for more production inside is becoming acute with the 4-1 Jayhawks scheduled to face North Carolina-Asheville (3-2) on Nov. 25 at Allen Fieldhouse.Theyre just not playing very well and theyre not playing very smart, and not contributing, Self said of his bigs, Lucas and Bragg in particular. Theyre good kids and they want to do well, but for whatever reason they both have really struggled.Conjecture over Kansas using more four-guard lineups circulated throughout the preseason and remains a possibility, especially with its frontcourt issues. So far, Self has maintained the same starting lineup, looking to get high-low production from Lucas and Bragg in the post.Against Georgia, Self was inclined to play a 2/3 zone because the Kansas defense was gouged by Bulldogs forward Yante Maten, who scored 15 of his teams first 18 points and finished with 30 points and 13 boards. His teammates, however, shot just 8-for-37 while failing to solve the rare zone employed by Self.Matens really good. I mean, hes a really good player, Self said. But were going to go up against some other guys that are really good players too, and to have one post guy get 30 and 13 on your guys that dont scratch, I mean, we cant win that way.That point will probably be stressed by veteran players too.There is a more forceful identity the Jayhawks feel they can project by shutting down opponents in man-to-man defense. In fact, Self estimated his team had practiced zone looks in practice for no more than 10 minutes before adjusting to that alignment against Georgia.It worked pretty well for us, conceded senior point guard Frank Mason, but hopefully we dont have to use zone again. We take pride in guarding our man and just try to guard man-to-man the whole game.Mason remains the Jayhawks leading scorer with a 21.6-point average, though freshman forward Josh Jackson was named the most valuable player of the CBE Classic after recording his first collegiate double-double with 15 points and 11 rebounds against Georgia.UNC-Asheville has won three straight behind junior guard Ahmad Thomas, who leads the Bulldogs with averages of 16.4 points and 6.2 rebounds, as well as 12 steals and 5 blocked shots.In a 64-58 victory at Furman on Tuesday, freshman guard MaCio Teague drained a 3-pointer with 5:15 remaining to give Asheville the lead for keeps. Teague went on to net a career-best 22 points, going 4-for-9 from behind the arc.While converting 20 turnovers into 18 points, Asheville snapped Furmans 11-game home win streak.I thought we just found a way to win on the road against a very good Furman team, said Bulldogs coach Nick McDevitt. It was a back-and-forth game and we were able to get a few key stops.UNC-Asheville, picked in the preseason to finish third in the Big South, opened with road defeats at VCU and Georgia. The matchup with Kansas is, for both teams, the last of four games affiliated with the CBE Classic.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. - The New York Giants said they are cooperating with the NFLs investigation into whether they illegally used walkie-talkies in Sundays 10-7 victory over the Dallas Cowboys at MetLife Stadium.The league is looking into coach Ben McAdoos use of the two-way radio in the fourth quarter when the Giants coach-to-quarterback headset communication system wasnt working properly. Coaches are not allowed to hold any two-way radios during a game. A backup quarterback is allowed to hold one during games, but Giants second-stringer Ryan Nassib told ESPN on Friday he does not.McAdoo was seen on the sideline holding the walkie-talkie when it was apparent they were having trouble getting the plays into quarterback Eli Manning.Start off by talking about the walkie-talkie incident in the game, McAdoo said during his Friday press conference. Weve touched base with the league, were working through it right now. I dont have anything to add, but we are working with the league on the incident.McAdoo refused to provide any more details on the situation.Thats a great question, but Im not talking about it, he said when asked when the league began looking into the situation.McAdoo later added: Listen, were working through the league, doing the best we can right now tto help the investigation and well move on when we can move on. Chris Smalling Jersey. The Giants host the Detroit Lions on Sunday at MetLife Stadium.McAdoo did say hes been on an NFL sideline before when there were communication problems, but that was before the new system for communications was put into place this season. And even though the Giants lost communication between their coach and quarterback, McAdoo said he knew the rule that the Cowboys were not obligated to shut theirs off.A source told ESPN on Thursday that the Cowboys have not filed a formal complaint with the league, but that the NFL had already begun its own investigation of the Giants use of handheld, two-way radios.Stephen Jones, the Cowboys chief operating officer and executive vice president/director of player personnel, wouldnt confirm Thursday that his team has contacted the NFL.We dont comment on things like that, he said, referring to whether they called the NFL, but its obvious to everybody what happened, and my understanding is its being looked into and handled.Jones said the team believes the use of the walkie-talkies did not play a part in the outcome of the game.
