That would be elite spring Bill. Hard to imagine getting both though.
-
@FarmerJayhawk KU is definitely in play for TyTy but yeah likely a tough sell. You could and would easily start both if say, Ochai goes pro. Would much prefer Ochai back ofc.
I assume Walker is wrapped up given the Slater tweet.

For sure. Clearing the scholarships would be tricky. We’re already 1 over, so we’d have to shed 3 to take both. Jossell, Tyon/Enaruna, ?? I don’t think I’d jettison both Tyon and Enaruna because it leaves us a bit short at the 3/4 spots. I still really think Tyon could be a beast. I think Och stays. He might test but if he takes another leap next year look tf out
-
@FarmerJayhawk 1 over? I thought Mitch didn’t count next year. Mitch, Garrett and Silvio scholarships cover the currently signed class.
There are a lot of physical tools to work with when it comes to Tyon, hope he stays as well. Tristan leaving almost seems like a foregone conclusion.

Ope. I totally memory hole’d Silvio lol. Then yeah, that makes the math way easier. Let’s roll!
-
Very understandable, what a mess that was.
-
@BShark also likely pushes Cuffe to 22, which is good.
-
Ok I think Tyty is out. I don’t feel comfortable saying exactly why but at this point I think we’re better off with Walker.

Yeah um, Self has not recruited guys for less. We don’t wanna turn into Baylor.

Starting PG at Kansas next season. Tyson Walker. Averaged 18.8 points a game this year at a mid major. First team all conference and DEFENSIVE player of the year in his conference. Handle is elite, really has a knack for steals (averages more than Garrett).
-
@BShark Is there a chance he transfers to KU then?
-
There’s mutual interest for sure. His list of schools that have contacted him is really long. Definitely one to watch
-
-
@BShark Go on.
-
For those interested Walker has heard from already: Miami, Michigan St, Nebraska, Seton Hall, Mizzou, Arkansas, Georgia, Stanford, Providence, Vandy, Florida, Indiana, E Carolina, Northwestern, Depaul, K-St, USC, Cal, TCU, St Mary’s, St Johns, Pitt.

Ok , so for my Bucketeer inside B’Shark - - -dam buddy , why is it I fell instantly in love with this kid’s game ? just got through watching a 5 1/2 minute video on his game and seen nothing I don’t love. Ya I know somewhere he has his flaws I’m sure , n ow I don’t claim to be a wizard about seeing what a kids got - - no recruiting analyst or anything BUT from what I can see what’s not to like ?
I hate it when I see certain kids like this and to see we are reaching out showing interest , only for them to go else where BUT I mean really lol ?
let me break down what I took out of this Tyson Walker has good handles, handles the ball pretty well , good penetrator , showed a little floater , middle range game , looks to be really good actually 3 point shooter has some pretty decent range , looks to play solid defense looks to be able to drive and dish pretty well - - so what’s NOT to like ?
Now if you want to get nit picky and I was when I was trying to find negative & really had to look but the one thing /concern would be size. Just wondering how his drives that it showed here just wondering how those drives he makes at North Eastern would convert over to a Major P-5 School?- -Kind of worried that might not work as well against High P-5 competition again size 6 foot be trying to drive against more talented Big’s - -bigger Guards how would those drives work against say like Jarrod Butler – Devion Mitchell those types? - Again small thing.
The only other negative is like Beddie pointed out - -the list of Schools that has reached out - -A LOT of Schools kind of a downer , what in the REAL world in reality what would you think are chances REALLY ARE a getting someone like this to commit here ? - -Especially with this NCAA thing hanging over our head. – do you think he is in the least interested in us ? - - All I have to say in the end is – -YES PLEASE St Patty’s day coming up would be nice to get some Irish luck - -Lot of Irish in me my Mom’s family last name McMahan can’t get more Irish then that time to sprinkle some Lepricon dust on he bring him home lol
-
Chances are 99.9 percent. He is really good and exactly what we needed for next season.

so your thinking Walker is a good bet then to committing to us ? - -that’s what your saying ? sorry kind of thick lol - -takes me a minute , hope that’s what your saying - -instantly fell in love with the way this kid , plays want him bad
-
-
@jayballer67 Would bet on him being the starting PG for the Kansas Jayhawks next season.
-
@BShark we knew this. Self said probably wed/thurs for the first 2. Wilson/unknown guy? probably 2nd weekend.

NOT GREAT
Yeah, have to test negative for I believe 7 straight days in the tracing protocol.
-

OH don’t beteasing lol - - Na just messin with ya - -that would be some really good news , really nice addition for our 2021 class

One word - yes.

GOOD NEWS per Self!!!
Dave McCormack will join the team Friday for practice and play Saturday. Self adds he doesn’t know how effective he will be…
Jalen Wilson could play Monday if KU advances. He’s expected to join them Monday if they win.
Enaruna is out, recently tested positive for Covid

that’s good about Dave - Big body we need whatever we can get from him. - - - - As far as Enaruna - - hmmm, just wonder if there is not a story behind that story? -still think he is gone
-
Self is preparing both Braun & Garrett to play the 5 when Mitch is not in. Seems to be covering all bases if Dave can’t play much. Hopefully he can
-
Oh the transfer meter on Tristan is at 99.9%. We’ll see what happens there. I’m sure he would want to be with the team though seems how he missed the Tournament last year. Unlucky

Self’s comment about how he doesn’t know how effective McCormack is the concerning part to me because that sounds like McCormack had Covid and lack of energy/stamina is one of the concerning symptoms as far as basket players are concerned.
EWU runs a lot of 5 out stuff so not a great match up for Dave regardless. I’d rather see Self rest Dave in the first round and save him for Evan Mobley. KU likely doesn’t need Dave for EWU, but they won’t beat USC without him or Jalen.

Oh Lordy , Can you see Chrisitan trying to defend Mobley ? People saying Mobley would destroy Lightfoot Well if that’s the case then he would obilerate Braun lol

agree, Good chance we won’t beat them with them
-
I think they are preparing more for the first game that way. Who knows. It could all be misdirection
-
ok guys time to change your pick. - -If you picked OU over Missouri – time to change it. - - Damion Haron OU 2nd leading scorer OUT with COVID. - - -hmm Jalen played against Oklahoma - - hmmmm Jalen/Harmon - - Harmon Jalen
-
Not sure if it has been posted, but Self confirmed that all players did test positive.

they are good now other then Wilson & Tristan
-
Harmon tested positive and OU fans are not super happy with KU fans at the moment.
-
Lol he could have literally contracted it from anywhere. It isn’t like there are 100 cases a day. There are 50k new cases a day.
-
Or with KU rather. I’ve read a lot of comments from OU fans who think Harmon got it from the KU game, and specifically from Jalen Wilson.
But yeah, he could have picked it up from a lot of different places. OU fans just need a place to direct their anger.
-
The refs! Let’s blame it on them.
-
Any bets on how many KU players test positive tomorrow?
I’ll go with 2 players, one coach.
-
@DanR no!

You need to rinse your mouth out with soap sir.
-
How about betting on additional OU players then? I’ll go with Harmon’s roommate in Indy, and one student manager.
-
I’ll tell you what though. If no more KU players or coaches get it, then it’s probably unlikely that Harmon got it from Jalen.
-
Unless they spent more than 15 mins in close contact, I doubt he gave it to him. Maybe they chatted it up before the game. We wear those beads that detect contact tracing.
