I justā¦I canātā¦ wake me up in 11 hours.

IF we land Hampton, heād better unpack his bags and be a helluva OAD to atone for this never-ending, stupid drama.
-
@ajvan canāt ever make up for his dad, plus heās moving here. Maybe send him to Australia!
-
@BShark man up!
-

@BeddieKU23 Lavar errr Rod Hampton said he was āpraying Devon Dotson stays in (the draft)ā. Iām pretty off it.
RJ and Rod arenāt seeing eye to eye on this. RJ wants to play with Dotson at Kansas. Rod wants the opposite in about every way.
So the way I would see this , just like when I was that age many many many moons ago.
RJ even at the age of 18 is basically for all practical purposes is looked at as an Adult. - -at the age of 18 I was out of mommy and daddyās house - -I was independent - -I was starting the adventure of my own life.
Now RJās future is pretty well written - he will be and NBA players making boo-koo money So here is what I just donāt get. - Yes I was taught to respect my Parents - - -Yes I valued their opinions. - -BUT at the end of the day - - this is or should be RJāS -decision - itās HIS career - -his future that we are talking about here. - - there fore RJ should be the one to say ā Iām going to KU to play - - OR Iām going over seaās - - NOT DADDY.- I if I were RJ I would be trying to in the nicest respectable way be trying to tell DAD look I value & Respect your opinion BUT this is MY future - -this is MY job
The Hamptons wonāt have to worry - RJ comes to KU he has a full ride the year he is here , and is there anyone that doesnāt think he wonāt help take care of his family when he is done with his one year in College - -you can bet your life - -they need financial help RJ makin that green - -he will help - -the Hampton family gonna be well taken care of by their son.
With this being about RJāS Furure - - it should be RJāS and only RJāS final decision and DADDY should take two steps back and just support RJāS decision - -he is now an adult - let RJ lead his life how RJ wants to lead HIS life. - -
Like Iāve always told my kids - -itās your decision, ā right , wrong , whatever - -itās your decision. - and youāll learn - one way or the other you will learn - if they ask me what I think - Iāll give my opinion - end the end - -itās their decision - he canāt always have DADDY their to make decisions for him. - - -Those kind of kids - -for the most part , they learn the hard way - - Itās a cold hearted world out there if you donāt stand up - -it will chew you up and spit you out - DAAD needs to step back - let RJ do what RJ wants to do - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Self has zero options now basically. In this instance he did get hamstrung a bit in the early part of the cycle. We will never know but I am convinced the class is all but done at this point otherwise.
I will be very intrigued to see how 2020 goes. It will need to be a large class.
-
@BShark Your logic is inescapable of course ā¦ Iām a whiner on this topic.

I mean I mostly agree with you on THIS one. This is a 3 ring circus and itās absurd.
-
Yeah guys. I wouldnāt watch this one. Itās over.
-
No kidding? This lil piss ant is leading us on?
-
He has his Twitter photo upside down, so I guess he means down under by that. Iād much rather have a 2nd year Dotson over him anyway. 8:30 AM Eastern is 8:30PM in Australia. Nextā¦
P.S. What do you want to bet that Jalen either stays with Michigan, or goes to UNC now?
-
@KUSTEVE That has nothing to do with it, but Hampton is going to the NBL.
@Crimsonorblue22 Yeah itās done. The New Zealand team removed and and all suspense lol.
-
Oh also there is this
https://twitter.com/bturner23/status/1133242361033703425
At least itās overā¦just get Dot back.
-
The Breakers, huh?

KU or UNC all the way is what Iāve heard and KU has a great shot regardless of RJ commiting to the NBL.
-
And I thought we were about to see some good stuff from Spring Bill.
-
@Kcmatt7 Lavar Hampton needed that million.
-
@Kcmatt7 Sometimes thereās not much you can do. I think Bill did everything he could have here.

I wouldnāt count on KU at all anymore at this point. - -If it was just RJ not coming would be one thing. But with the combination - Of RJ Dad pulling his crap - -and then Juwan being the hire at Michigan - -and looking like Yaklich staying at Michigan - -Wilson will reverse direction and stay put along with their other commit.
Another case of where the parents will win out -they love Michigan and named him after Jalen - -at this point with the way this fricken year has went - -like you said a couple of posts back - -you think our recruiting is done - -your right it is. - - -WITHOUT Jalen - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

If we donāt get Dotson backā¦and Q wonāt come backā¦ are we looking at Marcus running point?
-

@BeddieKU23 If you wanna barf, there are some great quotes for that from Rod Lavar Hampton here: https://247sports.com/college/basketball/recruiting/Article/RJ-Hampton-pro-deal-New-Zealand-Breakers-132369179/

āHeāll definitely be more prepared for NBA life than if he went to collegeā

No thanks. Money talks
-
Probably need to re-name this the Rod Hampton thread. RJ doesnāt seem to have any say in his life.
-
@dylans That or something bitching about Adidas. Who is even on their circuit this year?
-
@BShark IDK. At least he didnāt visit with Jalen for the Tucker party tour.
-
RJ sure made it sound like he never wanted to play college ball. If that really is the case, good riddance.
