RE: Transfer Rumblings
Yeah sounds like he’s had issues on bad teams and had a few outlier huge games against good teams (FAU, Memphis) but agree he’s a microwave kind of shooter you want off the bench.

Jordan Ivy-Curry zoom call tomorrow. Perhaps a visit next week.
I like him. Had big games (and I understand volume was there) but he can score.

RE: 2024 Portal Madness Thread
Portal over 2k entries. Portal Window is closed. Should see a few trickle in here and there. The only guys left will be those withdrawing from the NBA draft by end of month.
KU is still pursuing Jaxon Robinson & Jordan Ivy-Curry currently. Small committed to West Virginia so he wasn’t interested in winning. Still think we’ll push hard for a wing until they know on Kugel. The 13th spot could go to someone developmental or just a practice body.

RE: Tornados
Experienced this in Vermont a few weeks back (not tornado) but winds up to 70mph ripped my trampoline that was anchored into the ground and landed on top of my above ground pool, destroyed the trampoline, damage to the pool. Broken basketball hoop (shattered the backboard), broke 3 outside lights and several other things. I legitimately felt like the house was going to cave in and not a fun situation to be in. Can’t imagine with a Tornado near

RE: Early Hearings TM
Finally got that chip on his shoulder he didn’t have at Sunrise etc. These are dangerous kinds of players. I’ll remain out of the rabbit hole until we see it live but man I think he’s someone that may help this team win games.

RE: 2024 Portal Madness Thread
Reminder May 1st is the deadline for transfers to enter, both undergrad and graduate. Will see some trickling in after the deadline (just means they weren’t announced in quick fashion) but at least there’s a finality to the chaos there.
-
RE: Early Hearings TM
Same. Still hopeful he is what I thought he was out of high school. Still shocked he’s coming back. Must have improved enough to change minds
-
RE: 2024 Portal Madness Thread
New target- Jaxon Robinson from BYU. Some early interest on both sides. Will see where it goes
-
RE: 2024 Portal Madness Thread
Thinking if Kugel can’t come in you try… good player
-
RE: 2024 Portal Madness Thread
Miles Kelly from Georgia Tech in. Ideal wing.
-
RE: 2024 Portal Madness Thread
Yep. Was just recapping for those not paying as close attention and it’s easy to lose the current pulse of things depending on the day
-
RE: 2024 Portal Madness Thread
Swain has mentioned an unnamed player could be in play for the 13th spot. He can’t share it yet but it also may be the name in the other thread. It’s not a “flashy name” but “could help down the line”. Stay tuned.
KU is working to figure out the Kugel situation. Both sides want him here.
They will look for another wing if no Kugel. Will be really hard to find anyone as good as Kugel tho

RE: 2025 Recruiting
Good one. Wouldn’t be surprised if Arky made those kind of pitches
-
RE: 2025 Recruiting
Yeah I can see the disappointment.
We don’t land these kind of recruits typically. Cal was heavily involved before he visited KU so regardless of a commitment this kid was still going to experience plenty of tampering.
I don’t see any reason to spend high level NIL on a High School point guard unlikely to be able to lead a Self team to a championship in likely his only yr in College.
We will see where it goes but this isn’t one to lose sleep over for next year’s class
-
RE: Welcome Rylan!
Woops. Meant only we may field a second unit that may be really talented, not another big to play along Hunter
-
RE: Transfer Rumblings
remember he was a package deal to vandy with Dort who now is headed to Cal. Shelby was a prolific HS shooter and agree he hasn’t done much so far in College. Interesting
-
RE: 2024 Portal Madness Thread
Makes sense, the efficiency numbers are off the charts and he will be facing a new level of athletes. He’s going to be a good shooter but yeah I don’t think your expecting 49% next year at that volume again.

Does UConn have a big man?
Reed from Michigan. Their backup from this yr is a stud too
-
RE: 2024 Recruiting
Well for at least a year we got him locked in. Really want to see him grow here, big fan of his game but hard to even care now. I hope Bill still finds some kids that want to be at KU
-
RE: 2024 Recruiting
Boy I had been worried on him for a while and was scared to ask…
-
RE: 2024 Portal Madness Thread
Watch he will be a savant there on d. Just watch lol

RE: Welcome Rylan!
The way the game is changing we might see a 7 point shot and 2 balls on the floor soon

@BeddieKU23 And Liam? Hmmph.
Would have loved him here but it didn’t work out. Perhaps we see him again
-
RE: Welcome Rylan!
I would be shocked if he doesn’t return. Deadline to enter the draft is tommorrow.
-
RE: Welcome Rylan!
Yes. Big time addition and always wanted to be a Jayhawk. A good combination to look forward too!
-
RE: 2024 Portal Madness Thread
Welcome Rylan! Huge pickup. Should have been a Hawk all along. Glad he didn’t get deterred waiting his turn.
Swain said that the staff told Rylan they made a mistake with him out of High School and wanted to make it right this time.

RE: 2024 Portal Madness Thread
Woogla Poplar in from Miami. Has already reported interest from KU. Another worth going after
-
RE: 2024 Portal Madness Thread
Jaylen Wells in from Washington St. Too talented to not get involved
-
RE: Transfer Rumblings
Basically 2022. We can all live with that if the pieces around are good enough
-
RE: Portal/transfer , now THIS would P - - - me off if true.
He got scared from a guard that hasn’t at least officially committed here who wouldn’t play here until Philon was a Soph. Can’t buy it but wouldn’t surprise me either with today’s youth and those that influence them.
I have seen that it’s actually Elmarko and Jamari likely returning that got them worried about playing time. Regardless Philon and his camp aren’t that interested in adversity so it’s

RE: 2024 Portal Madness Thread
If you ain’t playin’ the game today you ain’t going to be winning games tomorrow.
-
RE: 2024 Portal Madness Thread
Yes Small is likely to visit this weekend it’s looking. Wouldn’t be a replacement for Kugel position wise but would absolutely add value to this team as a combo guard. Dooley has a connection to him.
-
RE: 2024 Portal Madness Thread
In NCAA fashion they have changed the grad transfer rule to now have Grad’s fall within the portal window rules. Before Grad Transfers could transfer out at any time after transfer windows closed, no longer the case. Of course they do this with just a week or so left in the current portal window.
-
RE: 2024 Recruiting
He wouldn’t play at all at Baylor either. Roach and incoming stud Rob Wright + 2nd year Mario Little. He isn’t going to find an easy roster. These kids SMH
-
RE: 2024 Recruiting
I think you can bet the farm he’ll move on a few more times. Really liked his potential as lead guard here but now I don’t have to worry
-
RE: 2024 Portal Madness Thread
Javon Small is likely to visit KU soon, this weekend maybe. Dooley has a connection with him, recruited him to ECU where he played as a freshman.
Brea still in play, did a zoom call with the staff and there might be a visit upcoming. That would be a big swing. We’ll see
-
RE: 2024 Recruiting
Dodging the perverbial bullet here. Just weeding out guys that don’t really want to work for it. On his 3rd commitment of this cycle so yeah he’s not worth another sentence.
-
RE: 2024 Recruiting
No mentions yet, we did make a run at him prior to his first commitment.
Reportedly has visited Louisville, could visit Memphis and may also go back to UK.
