This should be an interesting puzzle for Self. Does he put Zeke in the starting lineup for some quickness?

RE: Furphy
We will be worse.
PG: Harris – More of the same
SG: Storr (who is not known for defense) – worse than McCullar by a long shot
SF: Griffen – maybe better than Furphy? He had effort at least
PF: KJ – same
C: Hunter – same
So really one position where we’ll be worse than last year. But that’s a big one.

@Gorilla72 said in 2024 Portal Madness Thread:
So no Furphy. I heard Jaxson Robinson stayed in the draft. Most draft withdrawals are either returning to their school or looking for starter minutes, IMHO.
I wonder what HCBS is planning?
That’s what I read as well last night. Looks like something changed, or a bogus report.

RE: 2024 Portal Madness Thread
Any insiders have any names we should be excited about now? Hard to keep track.

RE: Furphy
@approxinfinity said in Furphy:
@bskeet still has 24 hours right?
Furphy has until 10:59 p.m. Central on May 29 to remove his name from consideration
Ok… Once more, with feeling: Very quiet on decision day.
If he stays in the draft can we sing this?

They killed the pac 12 and it killed Bill. Bill Walton has succumbed to cancer at the age of 71. Will miss ya!
Poor Bill Walton. He was a character. I remember being on a Southwest Airlines flight with him once.
They had a special two row arrangement set up so he could extend his legs!

@rockchalkjayhawk good points. Im just being crazy.
Doh! all in fun. it’s a waiting game now. Think Alex Galindo has eligibility left? I’d give him another shot.

RE: Furphy
Oh, and we still have two schollies to fill. obviously Bill’s waiting on something…

RE: Furphy
@approxinfinity said in Furphy:
Im just saying whoever said that is just clickbaiting you.
I swiped the Furphy paragraph from the middle of the story below. Just a top player ranking. So, I dunno. Doesn’t sound far fetched as a topic of discussion. Even Self has said he’ll “probably” remain in the draft.
I selfishly want him to return!

Who is saying that? Off with their heads!
You don’t want the Aussie back @approxinfinity ?
Since we missed out on Kugel, yes please!

RE: Furphy
Yea, i’d be pretty happy with that as well. Doesn’t sound likely to me though. Maybe our insiders have heard a few things?
-
RE: Furphy
From Yahoo Sports
The talk at the combine is that Furphy is possibly returning to Kansas for another year, but he shot the ball so effortlessly, it’s hard to imagine he didn’t leave with first-round interest after the week in Chicago. The 6-9 wing didn’t get a ton of touches during his freshman year at Kansas and shot 35.2% from 3-point range.

RE: 2024 NFL Offseason - FAs, Trades, Draft
Also, the Chiefs signed their second round pick. Don’t make me spell his name!
That leaves Worthy unsigned. Expected soon they say.

RE: 2024 NFL Offseason - FAs, Trades, Draft
Looks like Rice is off the hook for the photographer incident. That’s good!

RE: Transfer Rumblings
@approxinfinity said in Transfer Rumblings:
Does this mean that jaxson news is imminent? Were we possibly waiting on whether he was walkon or schollie until we knew about jaxson?
And if you haven’t kept up on the Jaxson rumblings…Kentucky is convinced he’s the lock of the century if he doesn’t stay in the draft. currently mocked in the second round, if at all.
-
RE: Transfer Rumblings
We’ll sign one more guy for sure. We won’t let two scholarships sit empty after last season’s depth issues.
-
RE: Transfer Rumblings
oops, he’s a walk-0n. i gotta update my update about incoming players!

RE: Keeping track of the ever changing 24-25 roster
Well, with Noah Shelby now on the roster, is that it? We done cookin? One scholarship left to offer.
EDIT didn’t realize Shelby was a walk-on. keep on cookin, Bill!
Edit to the edit: still unclear officially if Shelby is on scholarship or a walk on

2 Chiefs arrested in Kansas for misdemeanor marijuana possession. Great off-season keeps rollin’ along…
I know these football players take a lot of hits to the head, but really, how dumb do you have to be to get arrested for pot possession while driving? You’re either smoking up like cheech and chong, with billows of smoke trailing you, or you have it in plain sight when pulled over.
Either way you’re an idiot.

And for those of you still interested in Butker’s comments, you can read the entirety of his graduation speech here:

RE: 2024 NFL Offseason - FAs, Trades, Draft
Chiefs have signed all but there first two picks.
Sounds like WR Worthy will be signed pretty soon, but that BYU lineman may take another month.

RE: 2024 NFL Offseason - FAs, Trades, Draft
I see most experts are ranking the Chiefs SOS in the middle somewhere.
Dang, looks tough to me! I got em losing 4 games if all goes well.

RE: 2024 NFL Offseason - FAs, Trades, Draft
Holy crap. At first glance, that schedule looks brutal!
-
RE: 2024 NFL Offseason - FAs, Trades, Draft
Which would be worse…losing Rice or Butker for the season?
-
RE: 2024 NFL Offseason - FAs, Trades, Draft
I hope it’s just that @AsadZ . Would hate to lose a player as exciting as him.
-
RE: 2024 NFL Offseason - FAs, Trades, Draft
And now I just read that Rashee Rice had a gun incident in college! He and some buds shot up an empty car belonging to a basketball player. They are making it sound like all pro teams knew of this before the draft.
Man. Red flags.
-
RE: 2024 NFL Offseason - FAs, Trades, Draft
Oh boy. Saw that. The Chiefs are quickly becoming a PR nightmare.

RE: Transfer Rumblings
The Furph measured pretty good without shoes. Wingspan not bad? Dang, I saw the measurements earlier but have disappeared. Hearing about a stat controversy….
-
RE: Keeping track of the ever changing 24-25 roster
Current likely depth chart. Positions a bit murky.
PG Harris — Elmarko
SG Storr — Mayo — Passmore — McDowell
SF Griffen — Passmore
PF KJ — Clemence
C Dickinson — Bidunga — Clemence
Main Bench: Mayo — Passmore — Elmarko — Bidunga

RE: Transfer Rumblings
Dang. Sounds like we’ll miss his basketball skills, but not his mental skills.
We need a guy to replace him who can contribute, not a bench scrub.
Cmon, coach! Find us a winner.

RE: 2024 NFL Offseason - FAs, Trades, Draft
Uh oh. Rice under investigation for a nightclub assault. They say he walloped a photographer.
-
RE: Transfer Rumblings
Damn, now Self is speaking publicly about Kugel’s chances of making it to campus. Up in the air!
That would hurt. two open scholarships if he’s out. So for sure somebody would replace him. Hopefully there are quality players still to be found.
Depth killer for sure!
-
RE: Transfer Rumblings
Didn’t know much about Noah Shelby, so read up on him.
Weird. Former 4-star recruit, top 100 guy.
Now a junior walk on? Very weird. Something didn’t click.

@BeddieKU23 said in Transfer Rumblings:
Sounds like Shelby will be a Jayhawk. Question will be whether he’s on scholarship or not…
Contingent on Kugel I believe
So we won’t know about Kugel until early August? That’s a long time for Shelby to sit around waiting.

RE: Furphy
@approxinfinity said in Furphy:
Again, I will suggest that the NBA should be allowed to draft and stash players in college. Let the Spurs draft him and pay him guaranteed money/NIL to keep playing for Bill.
I like that idea. Just like baseball. Why not?

RE: Keeping track of the ever changing 24-25 roster
Funny @dylans I was hoping Self would adapt that “knee cap” em philosophy with Bidunga. Just bring him in and let him go ape shit for a few minutes. Totally agree with your first few minutes philosophy!

@bskeet said in Transfer Rumblings:
It’s been a few days since I’ve been here and I can not — I mean really… CAN NOT —believe that there was a thread defending Josh Selby and suggesting he was an asset to the team. That’s some amazing revisionist history
USC game, baby! I was there, and he won us that one.
Gotta count for something, right?

OMG, the color announcer for the Dortmund-PSG game is freaking awesome!
So funny. I can’t even keep track of his one liners!
After an amazing goal: 1.21 gigawatts!
About the awesomeness of the game: This game is hotter than the hinges on hell’s gate!
-
RE: Keeping track of the ever changing 24-25 roster
Well, one milestone passed with the portal closing. Sounds like two off-season hurdles remain: Kugel and Furphy.
That could end up a straight switcharoo if the chaos continues.
I’m pretty surprised that Clemence is still here. Semi surprised that McDowell remains. And actually more than surprised that Elmarko stayed put.
They must have something on Self and a cheerleader.
-
RE: Transfer Rumblings
Wait, we got another guy on the radar? Jeez, I wasn’t wrong when I said the chaos was just beginning!
Either Self is using his full allotment of schollies, or somebody else is hitting the door.
