Love the combination of OAD types (Grimes, maybe Langford/Zion) plus program builders that won’t leave us scrambling for guys over the next few years. Bill’s more experienced teams tend to be the better ones anyway, so I could see a run like we had from 07-12 coming. 18 + 19 has the chance to be a very special 2 class combination. Self can afford to be very choosy in the 19 class where KU seems to be quite well positioned. For sure. 19 is going to be a supplemental year. Go get JRE, Lawson, and Harvey first since they could be fish in a barrel type recruits. And you already have Jacobs, so that’s 4. Then shoot for an elite wing to replace whoever is at that spot next season.

  boy did we get lucky here. Sad for Collin. But its not rocket science you either get away with these things or get caught. He knew the stakes involved

  @jayballer54 I believe WSU makes Final Four only if DCIA POMPEO sends MSU, UNC, Duke, UK, and Oregon to PYONGYANG for an exhibition tourney during a nuclear exchange with Kim.

  Doesn’t mean anything per se but Jalen seems waaaaaaaaay more excited about his KU offer than Baker.

  @BShark In my view, it is easier for guards to pick up Self’s offense than bigs. If we get Grimes and Langford, that is going to be a spectacular trio with Dotson on the perimeter.

  @jayballer54 Hey! That would be freekin cool as all get out!! I hope that happens. We need it. The post today by someone regarding can this season be special. Yeah it can, but we need post depth. That and we need Udoka to develop rather quickly, some pretty important things. 1. Post moves 2. free throw shooting 3. more spring in his bounce!

  P.S.: The big question is not the eye test. It’s the “Shoe Lean” test. Does he want to play for scale at KU, or rack up a $100k somewhere else?

  BShark said: @jayballer54 I’ve heard/read a few times now that Dotson and Grimes can co-exist as long as Grimes is sure that Newman is going pro. Grimes is okay with a 4 guard rotation, but not 5. Ya, see that’s what I’ve been saying also. - -I just don’t see why they can’t play together. - -Don’t know how many times where I have seen Grimes say just that. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

  Well , honestly and I know this may come across wrong but not meant that way BUT with what has went down with Louisville may in the long run be beneficial for KU. Since Rick got fired within the hour of that happening BOTH Courtney Ramey & Anfernee Simons de-committed. Since that time Anfernee Simons has picked up 4CB’s for Florida, might be enough even more to sway Devon away from Florida - yes I know he is listed as a CG but has played some point also - you never know – - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

  @mayjay After winning the title in 2014 Ohio State was after nationally ranked players Ivan Rabb, Jaylen Brown, Cheick Diallo (remember him?), Thomas Bryant and point guard Isaiah Briscoe…it got none of the above; granted, I am not sure if any was from Ohio which is know for developing football more so than basketball players, although KU did get Carlton Bragg from Ohio. One top player that was from Ohio is Luke Kennard, the top player in Ohio that year who chose Duke instead. BTW, Thad Matta was fired earlier this year. Alabama got two top 50 players #4 Collin Sexton and #34 John Petty for the 2017 class…AFTER it lost to Clemson in the title game. Before that and after winning 4 titles in the last 8 years, the only top 50 player I can remember is Terrance Ferguson who also committed to Arizona and ended up playing overseas anyway. The only school that had champions in football and basketball in the same season recently is Florida and that was while back, and after Donovan left it has not been the same. The success was not due to the success of the other sport but having great coaches in both programs.
