2021 Recruiting
-
One time KU target Brandon Podziemski ended up at Illinois.
Texas lost a pair of 4 star recruits, they followed Shaka to Marquette. Ellis & Joplin, Texas seemed to really like that pair.
-
TyTy is going to end up at Kentucky.
-
So goes it. I was never very warm on the idea considering his past…
Calipari has elite bag guys and Bill is recruiting with a hand behind his back.
-
We used to have a chance with guys like him but that era has passed unfortunately.
-
Efton Reid delayed his commitment. Smells like a bidding war.
LSU, FSU, Pitt and Ohio State are the players so not related to KU at all I just find it amusing.

Certainly been one of the weird ones in this cycle. There’s a very bad smell with this

When your mom posts on twitter that your son is delaying his announcement ya know its all on the up and up
-
Brandon Huntley-Hatfield commits to Tennessee and reclassifies in 2021. Must be nice to payyyyy
-
TyTy has cut his list down to Baylor, Kansas, Kentucky, Arizona, Oregon, and LSU
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich Never heard of him.
-
you know & I know TY TY is NOT an option here anymore - -That Shipped Sailed just as soon as Cal offered
-
Consensus #1 overall play Chet Holmgren announcing tomorrow on Sportscenter. Appears it will be Gonzaga. There was some G-League talk but as of now sounds like he will announce for Zags. I’d assume with Sallis this will give them the #1 overall class for next year as well.
-
@jayballer67 I don’t know TyTy is not still in play. My gut tells me he is a long shot but I don’t know. Never thought we would ink Wiggins but it happened. I’m sure the staff has a pretty good idea the chances of him coming here and will continue to recruit accordingly. Not knowing what Ochia is going to do will hurt us more than anything in my opinion
-
@Woodrow yeah, Few has got it going. The pressure to win that elusive NC is mounting
-
Will be interesting to monitor Gonzaga’s recruiting going forward, without Tommy Lloyd.
-
Probably will look a bit different as far as landing international kids but they may just clean up on kids like Salis/Chet now. Hmm
-
@Oldmanhawk And therein lies the problem with players being able to stay in the draft until the very last minute. Before signing, most players want to know who is or isn’t coming back. “Uh, gee, not sure… Let us get back with you.” Players want to know who is coming back, but the university can only respond with, “err…”
-
Bossi trying to play the heart strings on KU fans by saying KU still in it. Had a full interview with him. Says he’s not in any rush.
time to move on imo
-
@BeddieKU23 reading the article after the teaser KU has no shot lol.

It was nice to dream about for a few weeks at least. Not a realistic option, too good
-
So I will preface this with obviously it is the decision of TyTy and his family, they can take however long they want. But I really was hoping he would decide soon so the staff can move on.
-
Tamar Bates to Indiana. Good on him for picking another black coach. Glad that talk wasn’t bullshit.
-
I know the family a little. That was something that was very important to him personally, so its no surprise that he sought out another program with a black coach.
I think we will see more players that emphasize that in this social situation.
-
@BShark one would think that if in fact we have no shot at TyTy the staff will/has moved on? Thoughts?
-
@Oldmanhawk Nope. Bill is going to recruit and have a spot for him until the end. Then whiff and scramble. Seen it before, but we will be fine. Biggest key is Jalen coming back as expected.
-
@BShark yeah, maybe his competitiveness gets the better of him sometimes because we have seen the scramble before just have to think there’s some sort of plan B. Totally agree about how important Jalens return is. Big piece next year

Where does Bossi think he ends up?
-
@Woodrow He didn’t really say. I just didn’t like how the blurb on KU read tbh.
-

l they just got the commitment from Holgrem - -so right at this exact time - - would say hasn’t hurt at all
-
It wouldn’t be impacting this cycle at all.
-
Trey Alexander is back on the market.
-
Thinking about him.
-
KU has always been in it. Lots of noise, but KU has felt pretty good all along.
-
TyTy is a projected lotto pick for 2022 now. He’s a game changer.
-
Buzz is mostly KU and Zona. I really think the Kentucky stuff is super overblown.

in the end is it worth it with all the drama that goes along with it OR do we take the 2-3 good quality guards that we have picked up in the off Season all ready Yasafu Petti - -Cuffe and others ? - sure Ty is good yet is he going to be a Cancer to the other guys - a guy that wants ALL the attention on him? - -A Black hole ? look at me type of guy?

I don’t think Tyty is a bad locker room guy at all. I expect Cuffe to redshirt.

well Farmer as always I appreciate your opinions that’s why I holler at you so much lol. - -Wasn’t necessary trying to say he would be - - just some random thoughts, kind of makes me wonder though if we will have enough balls to go around. you really don’t think Cuffe is good enough to contribute his Freshmen year? - seems pretty dam athletic to me

Anytime my man! It’ll be tough for sure. Yesufu, Tyty, and Dave are ball dominant for sure. I think Cuffe has a long way to go to adjust. He’s skipping his senior year after only playing two games as a junior. Big jump from basically a sophomore to Big 12 competition.

Well that’s very true, guess I just went brain dead not realizing he only played two games his Junior year. - -Still very much a fan though cause I truly believe he will be very good before it’s all said and done

I know he had KU in his Top 5 or Top 3 or whatever, but are we interested in him at all? I haven’t heard much here other than that we offered.
-
-
Harmon to Oregon. Lol.
-
Damn Nike is cold. Heard literally this morning he was really considering Kansas.
-
@FarmerJayhawk Really feels like KU or Zona with LSU lurking for TyTy at this point.
Not sure Self takes a commitment before TyTy. Things are moving so fast though, it’s insane.
-
TyTy is supposed to decide this week, correct? Wasn’t his timeline to commit around May 1?
-
@Woodrow I believe so. Still no real predictions out there from Slater or other national guys.

But one thing about most of these redshirt predictions? They almost never come true. With the new transfer rules, these players will now more than ever not be down with redshirting unless they bleed Jayhawk. I don’t see Cuffe redshirting, though he probably should.

True. It seems nobody knows. I haven’t seen the GL rumor in a couple weeks though. I just hope it does end in the next 7-10 days so Bill and staff can celebrate or move on. Still plenty of talent in the portal , but the longer his recruitment draws out the more the portal talent will dry up.

Zags feeling the Lloyd loss.
