@FarmerJayhawk Ryan is very confident over on the phog so I am wondering if it’s done.
Dam how did I miss that – I was just there – VIP ?

Bill self will do A in home visit with Bryce Thompson Sunday before the make his decision Tuesday
-
I kind of take the in home as a bad sign. If it was a fine deal I don’t think Self would be going there…
Doesn’t make much sense to me.

Eh, KU was the last in home for Dotson when he gave his commitment to the staff. I’m not reading a ton into it either way.

OU Insider still goin with the home team. Sure hope hes full of Bologna
Yes, I have Thompson CB’d to OU, but it’s not a homer pick. There are several, that I have spoken with, that tell me the Sooners move to go visit Bryce on Tuesday, instead of him taking an unofficial, was the best move the Lon Kruger and the OU staff could have done. I am told the two sides met for over an hour and actually was closer to two hours. One source told me that both of Thompson’s parents are very vocal about where they want Bryce to go and that is to OU. Thing is, they are also allowing him to be the one to make the decision and aren’t pushing him one way or the other, according to various sources.
As far as the Kansas deal goes? Well, OU is in a dog fight and OSU also has made a run since they landed five-star combo guard Cade Cunningham in the last few days. Obviously, everyone saw where Thompson tweeted out that Cunningham’s commitment changes things, but the question remains of how much? I ask that because everyone knew Cunningham was going to Oklahoma State for the last several months. The Cowboys hired his older brother, Keith, this off-season and from that point on it seemed like Ostate was almost a given for Cunningham.
So, why am I picking the Sooners? Well, OU has had more than Bryce’s parents in his ear. The Sooners have had Trae Young, Blake Griffin and Buddy Hield all talk with him on numerous occasions. All have explained why Lon Kruger’s system is the best for him and his skill-set. The Sooners also have had the father of Tray Young, Rayford Young, speaking to Bryce and his father, Rod, about how much he liked their time at OU and how well Kruger used Trae.
Lastly, coaches and players that have no connection to Oklahoma have been pushing the Sooners and Lon Kruger as well. I am not naming names, but several NBA players and college basketball coaches have let him know that they think playing under Lon is the best spot.
All in all, I think it’s a coin-flip. I spoke to a source very close to Thompson this morning and was told, “I honestly have an idea, but would be lying if I said I knew for sure. I can tell you OU is close and in the top two, but it’s not a for sure thing with any school cause I don’t think he really knows.”

@BeddieKU23 Conflicts with what I’ve heard about Bryce’s dad but thanks for posting.

We good

Two top 50 guards to the SEC, Ole Miss and Arkansas. What they paying to get these guys to go there??
Moody, Ku did show some interest but nothing serious.
-
Look like it’s down to 2KU and Oklahoma state both are doing in house visits with Bryce Thompson Before he makes his decision Tuesday
-
@JAYHAWKFAN214 I thought you said it was KU?

kinda gets me to wondering also - -If he is committed to KU - -then no reason for Bill to go for in home - - - -doesn’t sound good - -might be a last minute effort - - it Could be that this NCAA is going to be the determining factor from keeping him coming here - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
Hmmmm, if it’s supposedly down between us and Oklahoma St -Wonder why KU & Oklahoma St are the one’s having last minute in home visit’s BUT no Oklahoma? – leads me to believe even more what Beddie posted from the OU insider? - -Why? – quite possibly they know that they have got his commitment - - don’t need any last in home visit - - OR could be BRYCE called KU & Okie St - -in to inform them that he is committing to OU and thanking them for recruiting him. - -Until he officially commits to us – I’m going to be pestimistic on this - - just don’t feel comfortable on this at all. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
Ou strategically wanted early so they did early last week. Whether the in homes mean anything I dont know.
-
So question . - - I know Bshark is convinced about Javonte Brown Fergurson committing to Texas A & M. - -So I have to go with what he says basically cause I haven’t heard anything more about the KU staff being in contact with him or in home visits or anything - -so I can only go with he says. for the time being
Read where Javonte is down to KU - - Texas A & M - -& Conn - -going to announce his decision on Wednsday at 8:00 Eastern time - -still just curious - - did we just wave the white flag not trying to get him here OR is this one of those cases like some people talked about that we would hear NOTHING about or very limited about an end up being a surprise commitment? - -Time will tell I guess has anyone else heard ANYTHING at all lately about Javonte ? - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@jayballer73 KU isn’t recruiting him anymore.
-
@BShark Great. - -I think they screwed up there
-
@jayballer73 had no shot and moved on.
-
Well doesn’t mean nothing really BUT - -I still haven’t seen any kind of change as far as the so called experts making changes in their predictions on Bryce.
Just dunno , going be a long couple of days. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Playa puts in his pick… for Adam Miller to Illinois.
Would be the 2nd Top 50ish guard joining Curbelo. Underwood hasn’t done squat there but is getting a bit lucky this cycle
-
Cyclones just picked up a good one. 7 footer Xavier Foster. 4* top 60 kid.

Good coup for them to get him from the Hoks.

Some OSU smoke for Bryce…
Seems like every fan base thinks they get him except UNC…

I just do not have a good feeling about this. Hope I am wrong as we need a top flight recruit to commit to kind of change the narrative with the FBI stuff.

I think there is fire with Okie State.- -They really rollin - -I just feel we are cooked – ANOTHER miss - -haven’t felt good about this for awhile
-
OU guy still not wavering that it’s OU either.
I’m still waiting for Playah’s (Evan Daniels) CB
-
KU until I hear otherwise.

Honestly remarkable that there hasn’t just been a full leak/Playah pick/247 setting a favorite when we are now under 24 hours out from the announcement.
-
@BShark for sure. Small circle and the coaches haven’t been informed to my knowledge.
-
Have been unable to find the information from the pokes. Not on 247 board to my knowledge
Edit: One poster on another OSU board claiming he got good news but is unwilling to share anything else. Others claiming he was right about Cade going to them.
-
If he does commit to OSU will that reignite anything with KK Robinson?
-
@BeddieKU23 Tbf literally everyone had Cade to OSU. If that is their only track record, shrug.
@rockchalkwyo KK will be a hog.

Without reading 15 pages it would appear many thought he was UK bound after Playa etc starting saying that was likely. Guess that person stuck with OSU all along?
I still can’t figure out how Cade going there helps Bryce be the “man”. Cade is a combo guard, Likele is their current PG. They just signed a Top 100 guard in Rondel Walker. They have two other guards on the roster in Chris Harris & Watson after this year. Maybe I’m missing something here.

His parents.

Evan Daniels says Bryce’s desire to play at a Basketball 1st School favors KU - -BUT the NOA could very well dampen their chances.

Adam Miller possibly keeping his options open. Wouldn’t end up at KU anyway, I just found it interesting.

Hes still likely to end up at Illinois
-
Read article from Tulsa talking about 3 ut of their 4 so called experts pick Bryce to KU. - -the 4th says his gut is telling him KU but picking Okie State anyways.
Talking about bond the family has to KU & NOA or not that bond think will just prove to be to strong with Hall of fame coach. Said easier to say yes playing with what they Called those erie Echo’s and prevelant program
