New 2019 Recruiting



  • Lok Wur went to Nike land in Oregon



  • Sure seems like Self is just going to leave the scholarship open now.



  • @BShark

    Makes sense. Nothing out there that can impact this years team. Might find a mid-year worth taking but who knows.

    4 spots open regardless- 3 seniors + 1 open.

    Dotson, De Sousa & Agbaji could have decisions to make next year. Safe to say Dotson is gone, Silvio is a wild card. I think we get year 3 from Ochai.

    So I’d imagine the staff has 5 spots to sell

    Agree, no point in using it.

    As far as recruiting I think the only must get is a high impact PG. Bill seems to know this based on recruiting. Won’t complain with other impact signings but anything else would be gravy and depth.

    Definitely. We can read the tea-leaves with all the PG offers out there that we are definitely after an instant impact guy.

    We should be able to land someone that can play immediately with the success of Dotson.

    I need to see how this years roster plays out before I go all in on needing an elite PG. I’m a big believer in McBride. I’ll take 3 years of him starting if he’s as good as I think he is.

    We have post needs. Will be interesting to see if Jalen Wilson is going to be a guard/wing or 4. That probably is a big part of the recruiting strategy…



  • @BeddieKU23 Even if McBride is good, we need another really good guard imo. We have a lot of wings currently.



  • N’Faly Dante to Oregon in 2019. Look out below!!



  • Better them than Kentucky.



  • No doubt there. Oregon is going to be sneaky good. Really good shooting on the perimeter with Pritchard and Mathis, and a very good frontline with Juiston (if healthy) and Dante.



  • @FarmerJayhawk - and they play n a weak conference. They’ll probably win the Pac12.

    Agreed. Especially since Brandon Williams is out for the year at Arizona.



  • Oh my.



  • Wow, that was quick, and from out of nowhere.



  • Proof that pay to play is still here!

    I’m stunned I tell you.

    Me too. Lost my cereal when I read it!



  • Also an academic thing involved. Oregon doesn’t start classes until October so he has more time to get everything finalized.





  • @FarmerJayhawk

    Great news. Self and co stole one here



  • Bryce Hopkins @brycehopkins 36m blessed to say that I have received an offer from Kansas university bluered #rockchalk class of 2021



  • N’Faly Dante that played at Sunrise and went to Oregon is ineligible for the first semester. Trying to get cleared for the second. Wouldn’t be surprised if he never plays college ball.

    As soon as I saw he wasn’t cleared when school started that made sense. Surprised swoosh couldn’t clear up his academics. I also think its up in air whether he plays at all before going pro

    Like for real how bad does it have to be that Nike can’t get that cleared up looool. They got Bagley cleared somehow…

    I guess its still the difference between it being Duke vs Oregon?

    That whole private school thing. Dook can sweep stuff under the rug academically. Public schools are less able to.



  • Mercedus Leech & Luke Anderson have already transferred from Iowa St.

    ISU took a chance on Leech. Honestly that injury was a shame. Kid is at UK or KU if it never happens.
