Duke, Memphis, and TCU have already reached out to Lewis. I found it out that KU has not been listed as checking in on some of these transfers. I wonder if there is not as many guys leaving as some think…
I have now seen 17 schools mentioned with Lewis and not KU.

Maybe we are just doing it behind the scenes. You have to at least think so. He is an absolute stud and you’d be stupid to not reach out at the very least.

@Kcmatt7 colleges are supposed to educate. America provides the opportunities. OADs make a farce of Higher Education.
If you can’t commit for 2 years, go get paid now. See how Lithuania treats you. Don’t make a mockery of our already horrid educational system. Let that scholarship go to a student athlete. But really I proposed holding the university responsible thru scholarship guidelines. This would provide more opportunities to student athletes that are being wasted in OADs, but would allow guys who go supernova an out. They don’t have to stay, but the U doesn’t want to recruit a roster of OADs either.
I value things that others don’t, I suppose. I need a solid commitment at my job from my help. I have had too many big talkers puss out on me. Those I can’t count on are dead to me.
While I wish these athletes would show some gumption and follow through with their commitment I also know things change and kids get out right lied to during recruiting.
So on the other hand;
I also think young men should be allowed to change their minds and transfer freely, but buyer beware. Many of these kids are talented, but don’t know what it takes to cash in on that talent.

John Petty transferring from Bama. Took a step back this year but really talented kid.
Did he take a step back though? Doesn’t look like it on a cursory glance, he just didn’t improve as much as one would hope for but coaching (or lack of) plays a role there.
-
Thomas Allen leaving Nebraska. I’ll have to check with my friend about him. He still keeps in contact
-
More intriguing names from Yesterday. John Petty (Alabama), DeAundre Ballard (Florida), Thomas Allen (Nebraska), former KU target.
List up to 400
-
Thomas Allen would be ok
-
Christian Keeling from Charleston Southern is a grad transfer. Was first team all Big South. Averaged 19-7-3 while shooting 47% from the field.

The more I think about it though, the more I’d stay away from Allen. We already have McBride coming in. No real need for Allen. He doesn’t offer anything we won’t already have.

We could have used him this year. Instead we took Charlie Moore. Allen wanted to be a Hawk.
My first guess is he will stay Adidas. They made in-roads with him in HS which is why KU/Neb were some of his options. Will be interesting to see who he deals with. Gassnola was not allowed at Brewster

Has solid size. Anyone seen him play? Wonder if he is a good athlete.
-
@Kcmatt7 after this year I’m convinced we just can’t have enough shooters.
-
@BShark I don’t know that Allen is a “shooter” though. His numbers are eerily similar to a one Charlie Moore during his freshman year. I’m just not sold that Allen is going to be able to step in here and make us better. It isn’t like he didn’t have a good supporting cast at Nebraska. Roby and Palmer were both very good players, so this was not a case of a guy trying to do it all. It was a case of a guy just not being that good, imo.

Lamont West is transferring from West Virginia. Big loss for Huggy

For sure - - - I agree

WOW - -that’s just crazy - -the turnover there this past season is nuts.
-
@Woodrow geez!
-
@jayballer73 to plus those kicked out!

exactly. – just what seems to be a crazy amount - - -seems like HUGGY for some reason possibly lost control of the guys this season. - - From watching them in the late games - -seems like he has a few players that really want to play for him though. – I think Huggy gonna be just fine

Not surprised on that one actually. I think addition by subtraction. West took a big step back this season. Huggy can run the 4 guard lineup with two big wings (Haley, Matthews) or go big with the Culver/Tshiebwe combo that is going to cause major problems in the Big-12 next season.
West was really just a 3 point shooter who took bad shots a good majority of the time. Charlie Moore of the Mountaineers
-
I guess the pounding KU gave to Northeastern took its toll, 2 starter level players are transferring. LOL
-
Some of the bigger names yesterday on the move.
Jadon LeDee of Ohio St, 6’9. Ranked #103 in 2018 class. Didn’t play much this year.
Huggy gets rid of another. Andrew Gordon. West Virginia down to 8 guys including recruits
Tim Delaney leaving Villanova. Didn’t play much.
-
I’d imagine the list hits over 450 by end of Friday. Well on the way to 1,000 transfers by end of this
-
John Petty didn’t last long on the transfer list. Plans to return to Alabama to play under Nate Oats.
Wonder if Kira Lewis will do the same.
-
@BeddieKU23 That’s a heartbreaker … (Tom, John, what’s the difference?)
-
@HighEliteMajor weak!
-
Charlie Moore has enter his name in to the transfer portal
-

Probably good for all parties.
-
You could see that coming. Let’s hope we can fill his scholarship with someone that ca actually you know shoot!
-
It’s possible we only return 5 guys from this years group… Depends on KJ and Grimes. Pretty much a guarantee we will be adding someone who gets significant minutes in the next couple of months

If we only have 5 guys returning we will be adding 5 guys who can play big minutes at least

Lol. Got me with that one.
-
Some of the bigger names from the Weekend. Slow, should pick up again this week
DJ Harvey- Notre Dame. Struggled with shoulder injury. 3rd leading scorer at 10ppg.
Joey Brunk- Butler. Big man started most of the season but lost favor late. Grad transfer
Charlie Moore- KU
-
Any word on self going to the nba? I’ve been out of the loop for awhile.

There has been some rumblings that if the Spurs job opens after this year that KU fans should be nervous.
Soren Petro mentioned it this morning on his radio show that he has heard people talking about it and I have had someone mention it to me.
Personally I just don’t think he would leave under these circumstances.
-
Lamont West headed to the Valley, Missouri State.
-
@BShark Interesting… I think that we’ll have a defection or two this year, which is fine (add a couple grad transfers). Get ready for - it is seeming more and more likely - KU to bring (my band name for them) Big Dave and The Precious Hurt next season… Stay tuned…

If Self pulls that off…WOW.

He can sell it but can he buy it…

Smart move here. Lots of programs interested as well
-
List approaching 500.
Bigger names yesterday: David Jenkins Jr- South Dakota St, Isiah Washington- Minnesota.
Quentin Aldesh (grad transfer) lands at USC. PG averaged 13 ppg at Columbia. Good 3 point shooter.

Makes Garrett look like Ray Allen.

On 247 attempts. Would take in a heartbeat
