  @Kip_McSmithers Can I assume you weren’t impressed by coaches Doug Weaver and Stan Parrish?

  @wrwlumpy Cool list. I can’t believe that kid from Phoenix was only #9. Other than Wiggins #1, Goodwin’s (I think) was the best.

  @BeddieKU23 I still don’t believe the media. Newman was way too obvious, but most had him going to UK and many UK thought he would commit. I’m glad he chose Mississippi St.

  Okay, I have to qualify my previous rant. This guy is actually making an effort to entertain. It is anyone’s option to put a value on it and put some $ in the bucket-or not. I have nothing against street performers unless they get in your face.

  I would love to add Walker and I hope KU reaches out to him. He certainly hasn’t fared as well as I’m sure he would have liked to at UF, but he basically has no prospects in the pros at this point, but he still has every bit the potential he had from when we were recruiting him, and KU was his second choice. He is an academic risk, but given KU and Self’s commitment to keeping players not only eligible, but on top of a perfect APR, if there’s a school that could sort things out for him, it’s KU. As for Tyler Davis, the he’s a case of the negative recruiting aspect that HEM talked about the other day. Davis was sweet on KU, but on his ATM trip, they pointed out all of the guys ahead of him that KU was recruiting and said that he’d probably never see the floor because KU will always be going after the next big thing. It worked and he committed on his visit there, never making it to Late Night.

  @nuleafjhawk I would have liked to see BMac play in the 2011-2012 team that went to he finals; with him KU probably has another Championship…

  @Crimsonorblue22 I suppose it is also only unfair to alert recruits that Coach Cal is reputedly leaving Kentucky and let them draw their own conclusions about what happens when Cal leaves a program without knowing about what happened. Ah, I wish I were young again and could go to University of Tulsa and get a cyber spying degree with a major in psy-ops and then role out as an embedded KU asset working for some outfit like ESPN. It would be fun to trade spins with other respected embeds in the sports media. Spreading dis-information is so neo-neocon chic! Howling! (Note: this post and the thread it is attached to is a joke. It is only a joke. If it were real, board rats would be advised to tune their radios, and iWatches, to an emergency broadcast channel, where the ghost of Steve Jobs would appear in a black turtle neck and blue jeans in front of an Orwellian backdrop and tell us all exactly what to do before the private oligarchy can figure out how to preempt it.)

  @drgnslayr That is pathetic. Some taxpayer should have punctured his tires on a regular basis. I am so fed up with free loaders who won’t pull their own weight and then work the system -I found a year ago I have a relative doing this. I had a number of talks with them about it and finally lost it. I told them if you keep being part of the problem and instead of the solution we won’t have contact anymore.

  @Statmachine From what I read, I’d be happy just to fill one of those scholarships with these guys and then hope for a late catch… something Self is probably the best in the country at doing.

  As I understand it this family friend insults the boys mother and they get pissed. If they just go at him one at a time I would be fine with it. One on one fights happened now and then in our crowd to our mid 20’s. The problem is a patten of problems. And this time they ganged up on one guy-and to his credit he was trying to get away from them. . Add celebrity and money. Here comes the cops and robbers, er lawyers. (Ps-if someone here is a lawyer no malice-just humor.)

  @nuleafjhawk I’m okay with us totally staying out of the OAD market. But Self isn’t. I’m saying we need to snit or get off the pot! (420?) Seriously… we need to decide what our identity is and then fit that identity. We’ll never be a lasting, consistent OAD school if we stay with Adidas. And that is fine unless we sit on 3 scholarships in June without a big man.

  I’m seeing the glass half full this morning… so I’d rather comment on the player I see improving most. DEVONTE GRAHAM!
