2024 recruits
-
Boy oh boy I am so jacked for our class 2024 recruits. If they can translate that talent they have displayed in High School over to the College game , and all sign and sources say they will - -A big part of it is our Dessert Edge recruits from Arizona - -Oh Bubba.
First though Austin Alexander has been upgraded to a 4 star , which gives KU-- FIVE four star recruits which the reporter he had been reporting on the KU scene for quite awhile and this is the best class that he has seen since 1999.
Then comes the REAL STUD of the class - - -Deshaun Warne from Dessert edge. - -The kid just got invited to the All American bowl - -& was named the 2023 Curly Culp defensive lineman of the year aw absolute stud. - - some of his line for the yr , he recorded - - -20 TFL’s - - -16 sacks - - 2 Int’s - - & 7 forced fumbles - pretty impressive line. He is going to be one of the early enrollee too - -Early signing can’t get here soon enough - - -ROCK CHALK

It sure where to put this, but Iowa State TE Deshawn Hanika is transferring to KU. He was involved in the gambling issue at ISU. 6’6”, 225.

Mercy are we sure this is what we want ? - -I mean with our history of questionable players and situations -does Alterio Morris come to mind ? - -True maybe not as big on the Grand Scale - but just to even mess with kids that have had encounters and situations? , do we need another ?. - -Guess have to trust Coach L
-
@jayballer67 nah we good. A little gambling, where he’s already served his suspension, isn’t remotely comparable to Arterio. Frankly my brain never would’ve connected the two.

I’m not trying to say he is an arterio- - just saying had problems with the law in this gambling crap - -who is to say can’t happen again or worse ? – with our track record of some things that have happened with players if it happens, just another back eye for the School
Question being also we really not that bad of shape where we are in a major need of another TE. - Just think that Scholi could of been saved for more important need like D-Line or linebacker position , that’s all
-
@jayballer67 he’s learned his lesson after being suspended a full season and losing a year of eligibility.
I think we do need one more TE. We usually play with 2 on the field and we’re losing Fairchild and Huggins. So we’d have Kardell, Casey (who really is more of a H Back), and freshmen. So the added depth is good. He probably starts
-
A week to go till signing day. - -I’m just a nervous wreck , we have such a great group coming in -would just make me sick to lose some of these guys - -Marshall , Brinley , Alexander Warner. I think were good but you know how these dam schools are - -always trying to get the flip right up until the day. - -Fingers crossed.
-
kind of hard to believe just how far we have come. - -Remember when we were recruiting players who were not even p-5 offers and competing against smaller schools ? - -Now we going to war with some of the big boys for recruits and were winning a fair share of them.
We going against major league Schools now , schools like Iowa , Michigan , Auburn , Florida , Tenn , Georgia , Oklahoma , LSU , USC , Cal , Oreg St , Oreg , Washington , Penn St , Texas A & m - to name some. - - wasn’t that long ago we couldn’t even get these kid of recruits to acknowledge us - -now we knocking on the door s and they are not only answering the door were getting in - -Love this staff - -love the team and the turnaround – -ROCK CHALK

Is the isu player the Lawrence kid?

Ya , think he has a chance to be really good. Also some others that stick out , - - Austin Alexander , one of the top CB’S in the 24 class - -12 other P-5 offers , like Iowa , Michigan , USC , & Wisc to name a few of them - - I think Harry Stewart might be a nice surprise , good RB - then we have Jalen Todd, think he had just about everyone recruiting him - over 30 offers from many impressive Schools that we won the battle.
I think Damani Maxson got a good chance to be very solid for us - Then I think a close race for the cream of the crop between two players. - - -Deshawn Warner , kid is an absolute stud, DE - had over 16 other offers and was stated one of the better edge prospects in the 24 class -if we put him on one side and then Dakyus Brinkley on the other could be holy terror, cause havoc on QB for some time to come. - Then the other one I think is up there with Warne for the best of class is our incoming QB. , had over 20 other offers, finished 2nd in the State of Michigan for Most Valuable player in the State, a lot thought he hsould of been THE most vluable player Farmer. - -word is that just another JD-6 only faster - had schools like Michigan , Kentucky , Ol Miss and others. - I’m pumped about these guys Farmeer, future looking bright.

Good grief, must of not worked out, buried on depth chart–RB room is loaded.—Morrison still here---- Stewart think gonna be a stud—then I guess Johnny has been running some with 1st team then of course Hi-Shaw - and then our real stud.
But dam he afraid of competition, earn his spot?-- -I mean come on - -nothin given
-
Yeah Red more or less disappeared awhile ago. Stewart was way, way better.

Nos sure ,yet pretty sure year 25 recruit I’d love to land would make my legs weak if we could land is —Linkin Cure i believe is the correct name Farmer.—In stat kid just about everyone after- -would love to pull him in
-
@jayballer67 he’s going to Silo Tech in all likelihood

Ya that’s what I’m afraid of. I would rather he go to some BIG school or SEC School anywhere then K/Straight.— K/Straight always was President Nixxon’s favorite High School. Always was-- Always will be. -
-
Also, “On Thursday, safety Akili Hubbard entered the portal and on Friday defensive end Davion Westmoreland and running back Red Martel went into the portal, sources tell 247Sports.” Is there that much depth at these positions? I know RB is good.
-
@Gorilla72 safety is easily the deepest position on defense. End is… opposite

you beat me to it—I think we are in really good shape at Safety—like who w got thee a lot.–Our CB’s are studs—RB’s is crazy wish we were a little deepr at or in D-L—hopefully have a couple really good Edge rushers
Robinson pretty decent, & if Warner develops like we all believe and he was in High School - - look out
