2022 Crootin



  • Well it seems that we have now SIX transfers from Buffalo. - -DT - -Eddie Wilson ,( helps make up for the Terry loss ) Big boy like 6’4 & 324 I believe - - Trevor Wilson Wr - -kid can scoot won the High School 400 State meter & fastest was mentioned on the Buffalo team - - Mike Novitsky C read where is supose to be ranked like the 4th best C in the Nation , legit NFL prospect { Huge pick up to help take over the line and a guy that already knows the system. ) - -LB Rich Miller will help for depth in the linebackers spot - - DT - Ron McGee - -Sweet pickup to help on the DL for sure . Then we have OT Micheal Ford we need these types of guys for DL & OL think Leipold is fill critical spots for like NOW & not years down the road. Says a lot about Leipold when you get these kind of players & numbers wanting to follow to play, says a lot about the Coach, I like it. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • Just to show How Huge of Pick up Novitsky is for Ku all you have to do is look at all or at least some of the more serious Schools were that were in the conversation trying to get him to come was. They were : - -Ole Miss , UCLA , Maryland , Florida , Tennessee , N Western , Texas , Baylor , & Purdue. - -Pretty nice list of Schools after him. Read where he is like rated as the 4th best Center in the nation - -Nice to be able to have those types of players. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

  • How is all these guys going to effect our 2022 recruiting farmer ? - these guys gonna be blue shirts ?

    Good question. My impression is they’re coming off the 2022 class. Which makes sense IMO. The limit in 22 was never going to be the 25 initial counters, but the 85 man cap since covid goosed all the numbers.



  • Really can’t understate the importance of landing a high-level C from one of the best rushing attacks in CFB with a new playbook being implemented. He can come in and basically be an extra coach on the field. He already knows the calls and adjustments. It is HUGE.

    Would love to see LL poach some more MAC talent that is a little underrated by the P5 schools.

    Not super recently. We might be out of DL spots now to be honest. A lot of 3-4 ends are moving inside



  • CROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTS



  • Update: we ain’t done





  • Both LB’s from Olé Miss and Meeeeechigan are strong possibilities. The MLB from Miss led them in tackles last year. Immediate starter at MLB.





  • @FarmerJayhawk I like top 500 players, I really do.

    Really stoked on this one. Think he’s definitely a high level Big 12 type talent.



  • Farmer I was under the idea that Peoples was up his commitment date to this weekend. Haven’t heard or seen anything no matter where it was - - what happened ? – Did he end up committing somewhere else?

    So I’m confused - - - SURPRISE LOL - -he is committing today ?



  • Well saw where Peoples is visiting TT this Friday. Sooooo not nearly as confident now especially after he deleted about committing this wekend



  • 3 star WR Xavion Brice decommited from KU after picking up offers from Oklahoma and Texas.

  • Ok Farmer so fill me in Bud. - -What’s this as they calling it what’s up with all this smoke ? possible fire about this kid that hit the Portal that was Committed to Tennessee , that’s following alot of KU stuff and a couple members of the Staff?

    Keldon Salter ranked as the # 154 player in the class. Out of Cedar Hill Texas 6’1 4 * 195 lb QB ?

    Lots of talk coming off TOS about him. - -Question what’s your thoughts ? – would you take him with the baggage he is toting around?- - - Sounds like a sweet QB. - -Would you take the chance ? I guess the only thing he ended up with and the other guys was the Pot other charges were dropped. - -Is he worth the risk if he is seriously interested ?



  • Think I answered my own question. - -The more I read from other posts - the bigger the risk sounds. Think we just better take our chances and ride with Bean & Company

    I don’t really care about the pot stuff with Salter, but there’s some chatter (it’s all secondhand so won’t repeat stuff that might not be true) he’s just not a good locker room guy. He’s definitely talented and maybe worth a gamble though. But I don’t think he’s in play for KU.

    ya I think we are probably hearing the same thing. What I had been hearing was those other things had been dropped. - I just don’t know , I mean the kid is obviously talented but might be a Cancer. Could be change of enviroment/Surroundings - might make a difference. Just don’t think we can at this point take that risk. - Like you said also I’m not even sure if KU has reached out at all. - Been hearing Juco’s all over him though



  • Xavion Brice is a Sooner. Going to play DB there. Could’ve played either WR or DB at KU had he kept his commitment. On we go.



  • Former Michigan LB Cornell Wheeler announced he’s coming! 4 years to play. Give a call to Coach Simpson for getting this one done.

    Hey Buddy that right there is a Huge addition , very sweet PU



  • Thoughts anyone? Is Leipold a good fit? If not, is Mangino in decent health and not busy?



  • @Marco said in 2022 Crootin:

    I’m a huge, huge Leipold fan. Think he’s going to do very well here.



  • Picked up a couple solid CB’S last night Anthony Harris & Purdy both seem pretty solid. One is from Desmet Texas - -the other out of the St Louis area. He said he was going to go to work on other St Louis kids. We already in pretty good status for a RB from St Louis but he is 2023. - Leipold gonna be just fine



  • Farmer , I need you help if you can. I was wanting to share this clip from KU practice gets me jacked - love the energy I think we have a very solid staff here, thing is i want to share but me being computer stupid still don’t know how to post this video from other sites, thought some might enjoy it - -i thin some others might like the energy this staff brings. Curious if you could post ft here for me. - - if you could/would.

    It’s called Mic’d up with OC Andy Kotelnicki think I like this guy. - It’s off TOS under Fall Practices - -could you do me a favor and share it here please. If I could figure out how to do these things I would. I appreciate it bud



  • Farmer read tody about we have a recruiteer that was at Michigan State a guy thats evaulating talent position I guess, was really successful at Michigan State came back home to Kansa - -question is do you think we really hit the portal hard this year



  • @jayballer67 said in 2022 Crootin:

    Yeah, I’d say only a couple more HS commits then around 10 from the portal

    ya think there has to be a lot of portals and a good chance to pick up some quality experience players. - -I would think strong emphsis on Dl & Ol in the portal



  • JuCo offers coming in hot and heavy. Offered a OT from Garden and a LB from Texas today. Shows where they think the holes are.

    Juco is good - - as long as we don’t go over board with them - -been that route



  • The team showed heart and fight against OU. I like the direction that the team is going. That game should give them confidence moving forward.



  • Oh hai

    https://portal.rivals.com/news/transfer-tracker-2020-4-star-qb-enters-the-portal

    Money quote, “Potential landing spots: Plenty of schools have made early contact with Purdy, with Kansas, UNLV, Toledo, Oregon State and Illinois on him early.”



  • @FarmerJayhawk We can definitely use a qb



  • @BShark even if Purdy doesn’t come in and win the job in 22. He has 4 to play and competition is good. I feel pretty strongly we’ll lose 2 QB’s this off-season (Kendrick and Easters). So additional depth would help quite a bit. I’ve heard Hawley is a project and not to expect anything for a year or two.



  • Huge recruiting weekend. A handful of JuCo guys who would immediately be on the two deep for sure, and might start. Gavin Meyers (HS LB from Hays) also on campus. He might fall to us. I mentioned before there are a few HS guys left on the board they’d take if they wanted to come. Could really use a good showing.

    I read dam cant think of the name of our player currently - -but his brother is suppose to be here this weekend. Think he is from Oklahoma has a pretty much who’s who recruiting him - his brother is playing for us right now this is the kind of player we could use for sure. I think we are gonna be fine with this recruiting class

    Oh yeah! Trevor Wilson’s brother is a 4* LB in 2023.

    Also heard we made a great impression on Meyers. Idk if we can get him but we really made him think about leaving Kansas.
