2021 Recruiting



  • @BShark Jalen cuts his hair off😳





  • @Crimsonorblue22 he’s a long freak athlete, has D1 speed and hops but I’d bet money he goes to KSU.



  • Made the top 7 for this kid. Would be an epic coup for Chidera out west. https://247sports.com/Player/Kaleb-Elarms-Orr-46086067/



  • you know guys this might sound kind of odd however got to say , kind of refreshing KU football with the Mad Hatter right now. Let’s see this will be what the beginning of his 3rd yr? 2021will be his 2nd full recruiting cycle right ?

    Not sure about you but I can see the talent level on an upward trend , he has a really good staff it seems with many good recruiting area’s ,Hell we not be winning a lot of war but I know this Ku is at least getting higher talented players attention for sure - - - places we wouldn’t even gotten a courtesy return call before from these guys.

    A lot of higher talented players saying they for sure wanting to visit the Campus. I’m telling you all it is going to take is for that ONE major stud to take that chance a difference maker and we produce some more wins and I think things can bust loose for us - -I feel we are RIGHT THERE - - right on the verge of getting this thing turn back around, I mean there are some really good quality players showing interest.

    So saw and this is an example. Looks like we are in pretty good shape right now with a really good WDE de-commit from Minnesota name is D ’ Marion Alexander 6’5 out of China Springs Texas , we were high on his list but committed to Minn - -now de-commit. - - We lead by a wide margin for him off 247 looks like it’s KU , TCU , & Texas Tech - would be sweet.

    Also see where we might be at least considered for that featured QB we have been missing , need a little help to see if anyone has anymore inside scoop with this kid - - another stud. - - 4 * QB Ty Keyes out of Taylorsville Mississippi :- - Auburn , Nebraska , Louisiana , Oregon Ole Miss & Mississippi State. Now we might very well not end up with this type of kid - -bottom line is we are now being involved and even strongly on a decent amount. - we Beaty and Weis , we weren’t even getting a sniff. This kid is a very good Pro style QB.

    At least we got maybe a fighters chance here with him guy. The Reason ? well TOS saying Oregon is done with QB’S in this class Nebraska might be looking at a package deal on some brothers , Auburn has already got a commit from a high Dual QB - this all helps. - -So anyone know anything more on this kid - -holler.

    Ya it’s nice for a change to follow KU football recruiting - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • Welp , we will know about Keon pretty soon. He announced he is committing July 4th. Man I love to have this kid.

    If I could get the 4 that’s has been tossed around quite a bit lately , and sounds like a pretty good shot at lately - - I’d been in Heaven, for sure

    D’ Marion Alexander , Ty Keyes ,Tyas Martin ( 6’3 - - 318 lbs monster , & Keon Coleman - - YA BABY

    Strubers car here at work today…



  • Man I tell you some of our fans bite on the least things , they are in for a huge letdown I’m pretty sure , just can’t understand why guys get worked up so easy. only to get butt hurt.

    I guess Coach Jones off his twitter posted something with a 4 sec clip and bottom line dealing with Coleman. Now BAM people seem to think he is indicating that Coleman is coming , that’s reading a lot into a 4 sec clip from twitter.

    Although not sure why the Coaches want to tease fans like that. We all know I’m quite sure that Cole man IS NOT coming here , wish he was but ALL Rivals predictors saying OU when you have that many it’s a pretty sure thing that’s where a kid is going… - but from TOS we now have fans saying I’m buying it, think we landed the big fish - -going to be disappointed. there will come a time - - just not this time. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • Coleman is a lock to Oklahoma sadly. Announcing the same day as their next stud QB.

    ya it’s just sad to see fans get so worked up trying to pull blood out of a turnip - -they see Jones tweet and think oh ya we got him - -we got him. I DO wish the Coach’s weren’t quite so tesng some times just gets people’s hopes up. -No not me cause I don’t follow on twitter but you know what I mean



  • At least WR isn’t a massive need. Already have a few good ones in the boat.

    We do have a good shot at Alexander, Keyes, and Martin though.

    ya, my friend have since done some research. - -looking good the last 10 picks on 247 have gone to KU for him. - -Let me be the 1st one to bend over and kiss my own ass , I thought it was a done deal - - all these rival experts saying going to Ou , hell we even got OU insider saying he is coming to KU - - - HUGE GET - - things starting to turn. - -4 8 running back in Neal - -now if Coleman comes 4 * receiver , I think you will start to see more and more of this hopefully. - -Once one - -two come then others follow.

    Now if we could get some how Keyes to come - - 4 * QB, - -think we have a real legit chance to have a top 25 recruiting class a really , really , good 2021 recruiting class.

    Yet here is a big key , it’s one thing to get them to verbal BUT a total different ball game hanging onto them and getting that name on the dotted line. - -keeping fingers crossed , but for now it’s worth one giant HELL YA lol. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

    Look for KU to get involved https://247sports.com/Player/Landon-Rogers-46097511/

    Does Arky want him? Arky might be a tar fire but we aren’t much better and that’s home. He looks decent though.

    He just decommitted from there today so I’d say yes.

    ya think we will , were we involved before with him ? - - saw where we had a CB for him since his de-commit but it was at the bottom of prediction of how sure - - A I - would be nice. A little luck and we could be sitting up nice - - Long way until December

    Dearmon likes him more than Easters for sure. And I don’t think taking 2 QB’s this cycle is out of the question. Things are a bit sparse there right now: MacVittie, Kendrick, Daniels, Medley. None of whom have proven a thing (except Kendrick has proven he can’t play at this level.)

    Yessir. Les still has it!

    Don’t think it’ll be tonight now, but if he commits soon it’ll be to us. He and Dearmon are tight.



  • Thanks to all who post here and follow the recruiting wars. But, may I suggest that you refrain from using pronouns, “he, him, etc.” I just scan your most recent posts and often can’t tell who you are discussing. I see that most of the pronouns are used in response to another post, but it would be appreciated if you would use names. Many thanks. Here’s to hoping we have football this fall.

    Oh, Rogers and Dearman are pretty tight ? - -that would be sweet , again though NOW we have to hang onto these guys until December. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • Just read where we ( KU ) cot another CB pick for D’Marion Alexander from China Texas. We lead pretty comfortably over TCU & Tech - -shows not interested in Minnesota - -would be another sweet pickup WDE right ? - -always use some rushers on the defensive front

  • Been picking up word that Devonte Wilson is going to be comMitting to KU this weekend , would be a nice addition - -if we could get him - - Alexander – & then land Rogers which I think would be huge , might be that QB to get us turned around and headed for more W’s would be a sweet Class. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • Well - DAM. -Landon Rogers - - -BACK to Arkansas , like others have said on this and others , it’s almost like KU is kryptonite School for a QB, we couldn’t land a QB if he landed in our laps right now.

    Again like others have said maybe not here but seems to be a pretty popular idea going around right now being all thing Considered. - -Let Like Daniels go through his growing pains ride with him knowing he will be here for 4 years - -not really hardly any other options , we just can’t get any dam commit for our QB - -Sucks.





  • @FarmerJayhawk said in 2021 Recruiting:

    CHEVIS FOR THE JUGULAR https://247sports.com/Player/Kameron-Grays-46097516/

    Dam , & Dam again. Can I up vote your post a million times ? - -Not a Homer , a GRAND SLAM in my eyes. - -Big time Schools in on him. I’m telling you The Mad Hatter and Staff are getting these pieces in place. Really looks like big time working on getting these holes fixed on Defense - -I’m gonna say - - DAM one more time - - Hammer Time BABY. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • Grays makes 17 counters for 21 (I think Jacobee Bryant is a greyshirt. He’s practicing but not on the roster). There are 23 total seniors, so we theoretically can add 6 more to the 21 group. If we add 1 more OL (makes 4), 2 more DL (3), a QB (2), an edge, and a best player available I say call it good.



  • Landed OT Christien Hawks from lovely Norton, Kansas! I really like the kid. 4 sport athlete, hard worker, and from the good old MCL. Great pickup.

    We have the makings of a really solid class , now we just have got to keep from a lot of defections. - -Dec 16th is still a long ways away. However wit this staff we have , I REALLY do feel like these kids are pretty solid with their pledges, I just think the type of kids this staff is recruiting really do want to play for the Mad Hatter and staff -you can see it coming , were going to get this turned around.

    The group of the 2022 that we are in on are real solid - we just need to finalize the deal - -get some W’S on the field , the level of talent we are now getting is like and day between Beaty & Miles - -ROCK CHALK BABY

    I like his size. At 6-5, he has the frame to add the kind of weight necessary to play P5. He will probably need a redshirt year to put on that kind of size, but he could be a very nice five year player.



  • Saw where we got another CB pick for Alexander today from a Oklahoma Insider - -kinda leary about TCU - -hope we can land this guy - -believe he is committing this coming Wednsday



  • Farmer - -what’s happened to our commit today - - still nothing, was supose to happen today - - - D "Marion Alexander whats the deal ?

    Farmer - -what’s happened to our commit today - - still nothing, was supose to happen today - - - D "Marion Alexander whats the deal ?

    It’ll happen this evening.



  • I like the fact that Alexander played WR and S as a sophomore. That means he can run and cover, which makes him a good fit as a LB in the Big 12 defending the spread. He’s also big enough that he can add 15-20 pounds and probably not lose anything in the speed and quickness department. He could be a star if he develops.



  • Well we landed Tommy Dunn , be interesting where they play him. - -6"4 - - 285 , listed as a DE ,some think maybe NT - others think they may take some of the weight off and reshape add muscle and keep him as a Edge Rusher , I think decent pick up- - might surprise some people. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • Another couple DB’s this week: James Wright and Shad Dabney. Really stocking up on guys because you might as well given there’s not really an 85 man cap next year.

    For sure. Still looking at adding another DB and DE as well. Then it’s probably best player available/QB.

    that’s good to hear. Think they are doing a pretty good job trying to get this defense turned around.

    You know & I know it’s Coach saying it but he says he actually believes the O-Line can be better then last years, they listed the hgt & wght of the guys - -got some pretty big boys , got guys that seen quality playing time last year. One kid is like the 6’8 and like 295 ?

    Actually think the offensive skilled in really good shape , depth at running back - pretty good group of receivers. we just need that QB - been a sore spot the last 2-3 years , although Stanley did Adquate job - Man hope Easter or maybe the Freshman we have this year hopefully will be able to get a firm grip on that Position. - - I just feel we NOT that far from turning the corner on this dang thing. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • Ok guys, not recruiting but a question on numbers. Going to show my lack of knowledge here so looking for help.

    Ok I hear and fully believed we were really short in numbers yet when I look at our 20-21 roster , we total list of players of 118 kids. - -So how’s that if we are short?

    Broke it down we have listed on roster : Red Shirt Freshmen ( 15 ) - - -Freshmen ( 39 )- - - Soph ( 16 )- - - Junior ( 22 )- - - Red Shirt Juniors ( 1 )- - Senior ( 24 ) - - - Red Shirt Senior ( 1 )

    So with these numbers how are we short I know the answer is pretty simple some one please help set me straight.

    One thing for sure I think you can sure see when the new staff came in -looks to me like w are really young- - 70 of the players listed are either Red Shirt Freshmen - - Freshmen - -or Soph’s - -that make a solid roster building bodies making men right ? - - thanks guys. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • Only around 80 are on scholarship and there’s some pretty significant class imbalance. I broke some of it down in more detail in the state of the roster thread
