Quentin Grimes Is A Jayhawk (MONSTER CLASS ALERT)



  • KU never seriously recruited Garland.



  • But if you type Garland Vanderbilt as a search…Wow. People are sick.



  • BShark said:

    @jayballer54 Watch for Garland to commit to Vandy. If he does, that’s good for KU. Langford wants to play with other 5*s. He is also good friends with Grimes.

    Bingo! Howard hit a homer on his visit with Langford earlier.



  • @dylans Not the same person.



  • KUSTEVE said:

    Definitely not! I didn’t know his first name so that’s the search I started with. No Bueno

  • @jayballer54 Click on the name. Private message (“Start new chat”) should be one of the items in the menu in their profile. Three dots next to picture.

  • @jayballer54 It is funny how various things like menus or links show up nonobviously on the screen and you might never know they are there until someone points it out.

    I hate programs where things are invisible until you happen to have your cursor nearby and then they magically appear. Luckily, this one is not like that.

    Go to the person’s profile then you see a blue circle click on that then look down on the second line then you will profile chat message

  • Last twitter follow: Silvio De Sousa ☕ 📰



  • Almost like it will happen soon…



  • Dotson, Grimes, McCormack, De Sousa – one of Self’s best classes, not a presumed OAD to be found. Just need Grimes to join the party.

    Grimes and Silvio could be. I do think Silvio is at least a two year guy unless his handler(s) are dead set on it.

    Dotson and McCormack should be 3+ year guys. If Dotson absolutely explodes maybe only two years but that season probably ends very well for KU…



  • @HighEliteMajor

    …and this does not even include the 3 quality transfers who will also be able to play and were all 4 stars, Dedrick #37, KJ #54 and Moore #55 and who compared to newcomers Dedrick would certainly be a 5 star and the others pretty close to it. Monster class when all incoming players are considered.

    I’d a take a RS JR Dedric Lawson over any one post recruit in the 2018 class. Not close. Moore and KJ are solid bench contributors. 👍



  • Dedric would start on almost any team in America right now. Putting up 19/12 is no joke. He’s going to be an absolute monster once Hudy gets done with him. Keep in mind he was putting up those numbers as one of the least athletic guys in the country.

    Incredibly skilled player. Preston and Dedric are two of the most skilled post forwards Self has ever had. If Dedric could play this year I’d put KU as the title favourite.

    Grimes himself liked that tweet. Seems positive.



  • I asked Matt Scott about Grimes and he replied with a big grinning smiley face. SO I MEAN…



  • Tifwiw but I read on a Marquette forum that Grimes said on his visit there that he is headed to Kansas. The source is a current player on the Marquette team.

    This honestly does make sense given how quickly Marquette seemed to move on after the visit and their insiders are saying they are out etc…



  • Garrett, Dotson, Grimes. Self really evaluating and closing like a mad man



  • of course the assistants get a high-five as well. Stellar job they are doing

  • The article we don’t want to see … “Grimes to wait until spring to decide”

    There is a person in his camp that wants this, but it’s looking like they have been tuned out or that person has just accepted it.

    I will be very glad once Grimes has, presumably, signed with KU and this person is no longer a concern.



  • @BShark

    Snacks is definitely proving to be a good recruiter in the last year or so



  • Garrett, Jacobs, McCormack and likely Grimes. For those keeping score at home.

    Before that he had only really landed Cliff so it’s good to see him get some kids on board.

    So then as we are expect , Quentin commits with us - -then are we done for the year? - -Or do you think we still try to add yet another player? - -If we do what ya think we would be looking at? - -Seems to me with Grimes , Dotson, Moore, Garrett next year backcourt would be pretty much set -I’m just unsure for what position they would look after these. - -Frontline next year we will have De-Sousa - -McCormack both Lawson’s & Lightfoot - -and it not a 100 % given that Doke will be gone - then you have Cunliffe - -either spot front or backcourt - Could play the 2 spot possibly - -or the small forward so which way would they go you think? - - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • @BShark Sounds better all the time - -Always have felt pretty confident with him - -but you just never know till he signs that LOI - -good to hear - -hopefully this weekend. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • @jayballer54 Might be done but I’m sure KU still pursues both Langford and Zion. The team next year (assuming Grimes is locked in) looks great but could really use one of Sr. Vick, Langford, or Zion for that 3 spot. Anything else after that is just gravy.

    Much more likely that it is early next week.

    Where were you hearing the 10th? Not seen that at all.

    Also Newman, if you want to count transfers. Grimes should sign early next week. May just be a logistical thing with ESPN. KU will definitely pursue Langford and Zion until they’re eliminated or the recruits commit somewhere else. We’ve come this far and don’t really have a numbers issue, so might as well shoot for the moon. KU won’t get both though. I actually prefer Langford if Udoka comes back. Just better fit because I think Zion is way more a 4 than 3.



  • @HighEliteMajor

    KU already has a very good class even if no one else is signed, everyone else at this time is icing on the cake. If Grimes waits it might actually open the door for Langford and/or Williamson.

    What’s really interesting in this highlight video article you ask?

    “Recruiting: Quentin Grimes is expected to choose between Kansas and Texas soon.”



  • @BShark You ever notice the defense in these clips - or should I say the LACK of defense lol. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • @jayballer54 Lol too true.

    But yeah the more I read it sounds like you were right, Texas was the biggest threat.

    Until he actually makes it official - doesn’t matter how much I want to believe - -there is still this itsy bitsy feel about them lol

    Ya I’ve just been feelin all along they were/are the ones - because of him being from Texas and knowing the squad so well -what he knows Coleman?/right I think and a couple of others - Then you have Shaka - -made a pretty good impression from what I heard - -I’m ready for him to say he is coming here. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • @jayballer54 I think 95% of it is Shaka.



  • From a 247 article

    There’s still no clarity on whether Quentin Grimes, the 6-foot-5-inch combo guard from The Woodlands College Park, will sign during the early period. If he does, Kansas is expected to be the pick, although the Longhorns have made up some ground of late according to our sources.

    While Kansas appears to be out in front, sources on the Texas side of things continue to tell Horns247 that the Longhorns aren’t as far behind in the race for Grimes as some might think. Again, even though the Jayhawks are the favorite, the Longhorns and Jai Lucas have done enough to see it through to the end with Grimes.

    “I think he ends up at Kansas,” an industry source told me. “But if he ends up at Texas I won’t be shocked. I’ll be surprised though.”



  • @BShark That’s what I’m afraid of - - Dam - -I hope not. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • @jayballer54 lol

    It’s from the Texas site. It’s going to be as Texas slanted as possible and it says they still expect KU to be the choice.



  • Reading between the lines I think it’s pretty clear that the choice will 100% be KU if it happens within the next week as expected.

    Well lets hope he commits during the period for sure - -will feel much better. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • Even the Maryland donks switched their CB picks for Keldon Johnson to UK. Looks like they will get Herro and KJ.



  • Keldon to UK as expected.



  • Maryland board is probably top lul right now.
